Few people appreciate the marvellous
powers of the Graphophone as an enter
tainer. 1t is an instrument which,
though it costs much less than the least
expensive musical instrument, willenable
it's owner to have at pleasure music o..
any kind-from that of bag pipe to that
of grand military band. 1t reproduces
vocal selections and gives one command
of every pleasure that appeals to the
sense of hearing. No investment pays
such large returns in pleasure. Besides
reproducing the musical and other rec
ords made for entertainment purposes,
the Graphophone will record immediate
ly and reproduce at once and as often as
is desired, your own words or song, or
any sound, By writing to the Columbia
Photograph Co., 72o.722 Olive ST., St.
Louis, Mo-, you can obtain catalogue
that will give full information as to prices
of Graphophone outfits.

TORYISM in 1776 AND 1899.
How History Repeats Itself.

1t must be CALLING to the Tory editors
who are trying to defend Mckinley in
his role OF King George III, to find that
their every argument can be duplicated
from the English and American Tory
press of our Revolutionary war period.
That Tory press called Washington a
savage chieftain of q ragged and lawless
mob of iliterates who could never be-
come capable of sclfgovernment; that
the colonies would break into warning
factions and end in anarchy and barbar-
ism in which neither life nor property
would have any security, exactly as our
Republican Tory press now say of Aguin-
aldo and the Filipinos. The Tory writers
of 1776 jeered at the raggedness OF the
continentals at Valley Forge in the same
terms in which they sncer at the lightly
clad Tagalos, and made wood cuts of
of the continentals clad in buckskin, just
as the Tory press here does of the Taga-
los clad IN paln-leaf brcechclouts.
TIC iOly WillSts tlSh st'iu lhtl hO
terms could be made with the American
rebels until they had laid down their
arms in submission to their lawful King
and had surrendered their leaders for
punishment, when they would be treated
fairly and their grievances, if real, would
BE- inquired into, exactly as the Tory
press of this country now says of the
Filipinos.
In short this parallel runs ad nauseum
throughout every line IN the Tory papers
OF to-day, and should call a blush to the
face OF the shameless political harlots
who are sacrificing their country's good
name and honor on the altar of greed
and political servlity. Even the jests
and gibes of the pro-savery press of 1860
to 1896 about the dark color and woolly
hair of the negro are now revampcd as
an argument for the enslavemcnt of the
olive-skinncd and STRAIGHTFORWARD Taga-
los Ifconscience does not restrain such
shameless Toryism, a sense of decency |

American Tories.

Not long ago, an English subscriber
wrote to London Tory newspaper,
asking it to define the difference of politi-
cal parties in the United States,
The editor replied by saying that the
Republican party of the United States
is identical in principle with the Tory, or
Aristocratic party of England; that the
American Democracy correspondent to the
English Liberals, and the Peoples Party
to the English Socialists.
The editor supplemented these defini-
tions by saying: "rhc Republican party
of the United States is even more dis
tinctly and effectively the champion and
bulwark of wealth and special privilege
than is the Tory party of Great Britain,
for the latter is restrained from extremes

OFFICERS AND MEN
Of the Gunboat Nashville Entertained
 By Memphis Citizens

Memphis, Tenn, May 2.-The second days festivities in honor of the gunboat Nashville, now lying at anchor in Mem- phis harbor, began early this morning un- der the most favorable conditions. The threatening character of the weather had changed to an ideal spring day and thous- ands of flags and scores of yards of bunt- ing were foated to the breeze from down town stores and offices. The committee charged with the entertainment of the officers procured carriages at an early hour and at 1e o'clock the visitors were drtvcn about the city. At noon an elabor- ate luncheon was served at the residence , of Captain George Arnold. In the after noon the officers were entertained at the Chickasaw club, and tonight a reception was rendered the visitors by the Daughters of the American Revolution. The sailor boys were not forgotten in the arrange ments for the day. In the afternoon a luncheon was served them at the audito- rum by ladies of the Revolution.
 The Nashville was thrown open to in spection this morning at 10 a. m., and vast crowds were ready at once to take advantage to see Uncle Sam's fighting ship Steamers were kept busy all day carrying people to the gunboat, and the sailors had all they could do to handle the crowd.
 Tomorrow the civic parade will occur, and at night the banquet will be held.

- UNNATURAL LOVE LEADS TO MURDER One Bullet Ended Lives of Two
 Women. DIED IN LOVING EMBRACE Mrs. Hassal Was Madly Infatuated With Mrs. Hickman. and Result Was Similar to the Fa-
 nous Memphis Case
DIED IN LOVING EMBRACE

Stockton, Cal, May "A peculiar tragedy came to light here today when the bodies of Mrs. William Hickman and Mrs. H. A. Hassall, clasped in loving embrace, both dead, were found in a room in a lodging, one bullet having ended the life of both.
 Mrs. Hassal had become madly in. love with Mrs. Hickman. Last night Mrs. Has, sail told Mrs. Hickman that she was going to start for London today and begged Mrs. Hickman to spend the night with her. Mrs. Hickman consented and her relatives grow ing alarmed at her non-appearance today visited the lodging and discovered the bodies. Mrs. Hassall had killed Mrs. Hick- man and then herself. Mrs. Hassall came from London, Eng, and called herself the Duchess, claiming that her husband is a duke. She became so madly infatuated with Mrs. Hickman that her husband left her, but the couple were about to be re- conciled. Mir. Hassall is the chief ranger of the Order of Foresters, in this city and is supposed to be wel-to-do. People are of the opinion that Mrs. Hassal was in- sane. The case is similar to that of Alice Mitchell and Freda Ward which occurred in Memphis few years ago.
