YELLOW AND OLD BLUE.

Combination That Always Has n
Pleasing Eject.
From the Upholstcrer.
The term "old blue" as applied to chinas
is made to cover a multitude Of blues, all
of which are effective in any way they are
used, be it for table service or purely dec
orative purposes. Since Whistler showed

means poor as art products, even though

Il sorrowed that the golden day was dead

But, whilst grieved. behold. the east grew red
With morning.

By burning skies that scorched MY early posIes
But, While for these pned my hands were filed

Half broken hearted, bewailed the end

Only that something better may be given
Until at last we find this earth exchanged

From the Upholsterer.
with the approach of summer the public
naturally turns its attention to its sum
mer home, cool piazzas, airy furnishings
and all that sort of thing, and the perplex
ing question has always been how to employ
the least possible amount of furniture and
draperies in room. and yet have it re-
tain furnished and attractive appear
ance
One may get along very well with a few
chairs and few knick-knacks but nothing
gives such a furnished appearance to a
room as few bits of drapery
Many people discard all this sort of thing
entirely in the hot weather, believing that
draperies make the room hot and stuffy.
Well, of course they do unless you employ
the right kind, but little bit of Hight
loosely woven material draped very high
and drawn closely back from the window
enhances wonderfully the appearance Of
the room and practically excludes none Of
the fresh air.
The plain colorings for curtains and por-
there's have been very popular of late, due
largely to the fact that the wall coverings
which have found the most favor are
those which are displayed in great bold
patterns and brilliant colorings. This, CT
course, has necessitated the use of plain
drapery stuffs and furniture coverings to
give the proper harmony of contrast

FROM THE NATIONS CAPITAL
REPUBLICAN SENATORS HOPE TO
VOTE ON THE TARIFF BILL
THIS WEEK.
AMER|gANf BICYCLES IN GERMANY
Who Are About to BE Driven
Out of usiness-Pettigrew
About Recovered.

Washington, June 27.-The republican
tariff managers are still hopeful that the
present may prove to be the last week
of the tariff debate in the senate. All
the schedules have been gone over once.
leaving nothing to be done but to con-
slider the paragraphs in the various
schedules which have been passed when
reached in their regular order, because
of differences of opinion among the re-
publicans themselves.
Many of these differences haze been
adjusted in the republican ranks, but the
democrats will naturally take advantage
of their knowledge of the feeling exist
ing among their opponents to debate
some of the questions at length. 1t is
understood now that coal, leather, hides
and lead ore will each be vigorously dis.
cussed, as will also the questions, though
more briefly, of reciprocity, the treat
ment of trusts and the disposition of the
Hawaiian reciprocity treaty.
In view of the determination of the
democrats to exploit all these questions
and others as well, it would seem i'm.
possible to conclude the senate's work or
the bill before the end of the week, and
it is more than probable that the final
work will be reserved for the following
week.

London Finances,

London, June 27.-The market shows a
slight increase in the money rate. with
loans on Monday at 81 to per cent loans
into July at IA to IL per cent, two,
three and four months discount at per
cent; and six months time money at GIG
al IA.
There is, however very little doing, and
there has been great deal of grumbling at
the decision not to close the stock ex-
change for the naval review. What little
has been done has been mostly in Ameri-
cans and in mining securities. Among
the former Illinois Central shows an adj
vance of IA per cent and Norfolk and
Western is per cent. On the other hand,
Northern Pacific fell 5-S per cent. Cana
dian railways have advanced sharply, the
Grand Trunk. guaranteed, "a per cent;
first preferred and second preferred, l 81
per cent. The better feeling in the Trans
vaal and the belief that measures will be
taken to relieve the financial interests
there, have had favorable effect in South
African ventures, and fair amount of
business is being done in them at advanced
prices.

An Indicted Man suicides.

Denton, Tex, June 2S.-(Special)-
News reached here today of the suicide
last Saturday at Greenwood, Wise coun-
ty, of Jonah Milligan, farm laborer.
who was at the time under indictment
in. Wise county for killing man with
a brush fork about two months ago. Par
ties from there say that Milligan, who
was at the time with a threshing ma
chine, complained of being sick and went
home. Not appearing next day, search
was made for him and his body was
found In an old barn, hanging with his
neck broken and pistol shot through
him. Il seems that he placed rope
around his neck, and standing on a box,
shot himself, the shock knocking him off
the box and hanging him.

AMERICAN BICYCLES.
They Are About to Drive German
Makers Out of the Business.

They Are About to Drive German
Makers Out of the Business.
Washington, June 27.-Charles Dekay,
United States consul at Berlin, in a re-
port to the state department calls atten-
ton to the fact that German bicycle
makers are deeply concerned at the now
very large and growing competition of
American machines. The League of In
dustrials at Bochum, an important manu-
featuring center. has taken up. the matter
and in memorial to the German gov
eminent calls attention to the fact that
this great industry is in imminent peril
owing to the rivalry of American bicycle
manufacturers. They complain that the
United States leves a duty on foreign
made wheels of about $14.2S, while the
German duty. being only $5.71 per 100
kilograms, only from II to 80 cents duty
falls on the American wheels. Upon
these and other grounds the aid of the
German government is asked in behalf of
the home industry. The consul general
says it is not because the American
wheels are of foreign make that they
sell so rapidly in Germany, but because
they are the strongest lightest, soundest
and most elegant in shape. They have
quite taken the field. he says from Bel
gian, Austrian and British wheels. He
also expresses the opinion that large
concessions could be made with safety to
the Germans in the way of lower duties
on German-made wheels. because the
German public is now so well convinced
that the superiority of the American
wheel will continue to hold the market
: so long as this high standard is main
tanned.
Consul Monahan at Chenitz, Saxony,
in n reDOrt TO the state dpno rtmpnt also
calls attention to the effort that is being
made by the German bicycle makers in
that province to secure higher duties on
American wheels. TO this end the
bund of German industries have petit
toned the foreign office on the subject,
asking for immediate relief from the
threatened danger.
