THE WORM TURNS.
Suffering Humanity Will Not Always
TRmeIy submit 10 AHabtlity.

The affable passenger had been searching
for a victim for a long time. He had made
EXPLANATIONS when reading his paper, in the
hopes that it would attract the attention
of some one and give him the opportunity
to show his power as a conversationalist, but
all his little ruscs failed. The people who
sat near him seemed TO be wholly ~centered
on themselves, but still he was not com
pletely discouraged. He looked about him
and, selecting one man TO whom he thought
he might be able to impart much interesting
information, he began operations by re
marking:
Pardon me, but you look very much like
a man / know"
Theman who was addressed looked over tn,
affable passenger ploon.ily, and, RECOGNIZING
the type, he replied, in tones that woult
cause the thermometer to sink, even in tn,
Klondike:
"Yes, that is possibly so; but at the SAM
tim you must excuse me, for you look ex
actly like a man l don't want TO know

Madge Casey threw herself with wild

magnificent drawing-room of the palatial
brown stone mansion owned by her father,
the wealthy but honest politician. Madge's

BIG INDUSTRY KILLED.
Manufacture of Dutterine in Illinois
Wtn StAn July 1.


Chicago, June 16.-The manufacture
of butterine as an industry will vir-
tually cease in Illinois July /, now that
Gov. Tanner has signed the bill pre-
venting the coloring of that article.
Uncle Sam will lose 100000 year in
internal revenue taxes, restaurant and
clearinghouse keepers will have to
buy genuine butter for their patrons.
and the farmers all over the prairie
state will shout with joy as soon as
the bill becomes operative. Thirty mil
lion pounds of butterine is msd de in Chi
cago a year, OH every pound of which
the manufacturer pays two-cent tax
to the government. He can afford to
do it, too, for the modern product SO
closely resembles dairy butter in color
and taste that it easily brings as good
a price as the best butter that ever
came out of churn. But now that the
farmers have secured the passage OF
a law prohibiting the coloring of but
tcrine, thereby leaving it the shade oil
mutton tallow, the palmy days of the
stock-yards product are past. Butter.
inc no longer can compete with dairy
butter, and in consequence the manu-.
facturers. will SHUT down their works

The young lady is musician and a

the strain upon the strength and nervous
energy of the pianist can be easily imagined.

THE TARIFF DEBATE.
Sugar Schedule Adopted-Anti-Trus
Amendment Defeated.

Sugar Schedule Adopted-Anti-Tru
Amendment Defeated.
Washington, June 16.-The senate
made a great stride forward Tuesday
by completing the consideration of the
sugar schedule of the tariff bill, except
the provision relating to Hawaii, which
went over. This schedule has been the
storm center of the entire bill, and with
it disposed of there is better prospect
for speedy action on the bill as whole.
The first paragraph Of the sugar sched-
ule has served to bring out I'LL speeches
and the test votes, and when this was
passed early Tuesday the other para
graphs of the schedule were agreed
to without further opposition. AS
agreed to, the schedule places on sugar
not above No. 16 Dutch standard one
cent per pound, and .o3 of cent for
every degree above Is; and on sugars
above No. 16 Dutch standard .05 cents
per pound, but on sugars testing below
81 degrees lilo cents per pound shall be
deducted. The other provisions of the
schedule relate to maple sugar, maple
sirup, candy, etc. Only one yea and nay
vote was taken during the day, on the
amendment of Senator Lindsay (ky.l
to make the rate 1.8 cents per pound
on sugar above No. 16 Dutch standard.
The amendment was defeated, 80 to 35.
The Pettigrew amendment relating
to trusts was taken up and discussed at
length. 1t developed considerable di-
yergence of view on both sides of the
chamber, the two Alabama senator's,
Morgan and Pettus, joining Senator
Hoar (Mass.) in opposition. Senator
Allison finally tested the sense of the
senate by moving to table the amend
ment, which motion prevailed, yeas, So;
nays, 80; two democrats Morgan and
McEnery) voting with the republicans
to table, and thus turning the scale
against the amendment. Consideration
of the agricultural schedule was then
resumed, then the butter paragraph be-
ing agreed TO as reported.
Immediately after Senator Petit
crews antitrust amendment to the
tariff bill was laid on the table he gave
notice of another amendment OF the
same character in the shape of pro
viso as follows: THAT none of the
increased rates of duty provided for IL
this act shall apply to any articles OF
commodities the sale or manufacturt
of which is controlled by trusts in this
country" Senator Chiffon CTeX.) also
offered an antitrust amendment.
