TO the Duty.


to the Duty.
T. Deputy Collector Farley OF be Custom
house received letter from the Treasury
Department yesterday informing him
to an i'm portant ruling OF The department
with reference 10 the duty on sugar. The
opinion is to the effect that sugar coming
from a country which gives bounty on
its exports of sugar must paw at the

duty under the Dingley bill, but also the
amount Of the bounty. In other words the
bounty will be lie utralized.

CHANGES COLOR EVERY YEAR.
Woman in Ireland Whose Skin Is
Alternately Black and White.

Alternately Black and White.
Medical societies in Great Britain and
Ireland are just now devoting no little
attention to q remarkable human freak
who now lives in one of the western
Irish counties. The woman was born
with a black skin in Jamaica about 45
years ago. She says that she remained
with the characteristic negro color to
her skin until she was % years of age,
when she began rapidly turning white,
the complete transformation being
made in less than three months. She
remained white for about year, and
then turned black again, but more
slowly than the white transformation
had come upon her. When this second
change in skin color took place she
was sure that she had returned to her
original color, and would remain that
hue during the balance of her life, but
it was only few short months until
she was again as white as an albino.
Since that time the changes have year.
ly taken place, the woman being black
one summer and white the next. She
suffers no pain whatever.

them. The doubter must doubt no
