his style Is something that no one has
been able TO copy; and he still maintains
his supremacy. One of the best tricks
he does is to balance a billiard cue upon
two others. and these iI turn upon his
chin. BY changing the angle Of his chin
one OF the under cues is permitted TO
drop out: and the top one. deprived OF it's
double support. falls and is caught upon
his forehead. The trick Is clever as well
as snowy piece OF work. Many other
new things are introduced in the act
which contribute to its success. and he
has an assistant who helps him to give
an amusing comedy atmosphere to his
act.

RECEIVER APPOINTED
 FOR APPLETON & co
One of the Oldest Publishing Houses in the United States Becomes Involved in
 Debt-Liabiiities SI,I1O,OOO

New York, March 22.-Justice Bischoff of the supreme court, today appointed J. Hampton Doughty receiver for the D. Ap- pleton Co.,, publishers on the applicatio of Daniel Prtchard, a stockholder. The bond of the receiver was fixed at $15,00O The liabilities are $1 10000; the assets con sist of stock and outstanding accounts
 On February 1 D. Appleton and Co. gave out balance sheet to the stockholders that showed a balance of $3 6O4, OPS, including $190,3S7 cash in hand The liabilities were given as the same as the assets. The bal ance sheet filed today shows the cash on hand about exhausted, while the item of bills receivable has declined from s1 ,130 900 to $1,11OOO0, owing to an account which went by default yesterday, the firm being unable to meet it.
 A statement has been issued by D.Apple- ton & Co.,, in which they say: "The present situation is owing not to undue business risk, nor to trade loss, but mainly to the fact that through the extension of our bus mess on the installment contract basis (which contracts amount to fully $2O0 0OO now outstanding and in due course collect able) our capital has become inadequate to meet our maturities.
 The house of D. Appleton & Co., is one of the oldest of the publishing firms in this country It began in 1925 in connection with dry goods business the founder, Daniel Appleton, had developed in Boston The house was first established here in 1S90 In 1885 William H. Appleton, the eld- est son of the founder, opened its London branch. Other members of the family de- veloped the business, and it continued its growth for many years. The officers of the corporation, as well as the directors, are all members of the Appleton family.

Cockrel said that 10 &C., cept this report would fix the Dingley law as me controlling factor in arranging the tariff for our commerce with Porto Rico He quoted Governor General Davis, Secre- tary Root and President Mckinley in sup port of a free trade policy with Porto Rico saying as he read the presidents free-trade message: "I wish to God I could inscribe this utterance indelibly upon the tablet of the memory of the sleeping, dreaming sen- ators on the republican side of the cham ber."
 He asked what mysterious, though potent influence made the republicans seek to con- pei the president to stultffy himself by re- quiring him to sign-this bill.
 MT. Sullivan criticized the report saying that the Porto Ricans should not be taxed any more than the people of Louisiana or Mississippi Having made Porto Rico port of the United States, there was no reason why the industries of the Porto Rican peo- ple should be ruined.

 MT. Allison defended the conference re- port, and criticized the democratic attitude of delay. So far as free trade was concerned we must take into consideration the fact of the relation of our productions with those of Porto Rico, such as rum, tobacco etc.
 The mass of the people there were poor, nd the greatest share of the property was in the hands. of a few men, and said MT Allison, we must so adjust our relations as to make them prosperous and at the same time let them contribute to our pros- periiy."
