That Mckinley Parade

A great ado has been made over the
Mckinley parade in Chicago. The Re-
publican press has asserted that it means
that Illinois will go For Mckinley. The
Chicago News, a Republican organ, tells
the plain truth about the parade. 1t
says there were about 1900 voters in
line. the rest being made up Of boys.
Many of the marchers displayed Bryan
buttons and one man on float kept call
ing to the crowd through megaph me:
"We must march or lose our johs."
The News has all along through the
campaign warned it's party that they
were taking the wrong course to win the
election and in its account Of the parade
called attention to the bad taste of dis
playing golden Mckinley throne on
one CT tie floats,

No Compassion

James Raycraft, who lately returned
from Omaha where he disposed of car
load of horses, says that the country in
and about Omaha is flooded with horse
flesh. Buyers have loaded up the mar
ket with lot of cheap cayuses and the
result is that the market price has
dropped way down the scale. The first
day he was in Omaha over eighty car
loads of horses arrived in that city. He
says that the way the animals are treated
is simply pitiful. The buyers only care
fer the coin they make and the animals
are treated in the most unhuman manner
Every morning dozens of horses are
hauled out of the corrals dead, mostly
from neglect. He further states that he
saw horses sold for from 81 to $50 and
the prices were so low that it does not
pay to ship horses out OF this State.

A CHEAP QUIBBLE
The Foxey "News" Hunts a
Somewhat Small Hole.

Years ago . smart alec used to
tramp round through Vermont Offering
to bot strangers that they wore no shirts
on their backs. He would then claln
the stakes by saying that some parts OF
the shirts were wtrn on their stomachs.
In tho rural districts he was regarded ~
a rlan of great cleverness. Some OF his
descendants must have reached the News
Office.
The News desires to reach for the 500
offered by the APPEAL. Here are the
terms laid down by the News:
The APPEAL shall show that the Silver
party has effected a saving Of over ?z5;OOo
such saving was the result OF Silver
party legislation.
All Of this saving was not the result OF
Silver party legislation or any other leg
islation. Much of this saving was not
the result of legislation at all, but by the
economical management Of the State
Prison, the Orphans Home and the In
sane Asylum.
We are prepared to show 10y the book 8
that during the past five years the State
government has been run. under the
Management of the Silver party, $4,000 a
year cheaper than under the previous
five years Of Republican rule.
This is a very plain, simple proposition
and thele is still 500 behind it.
All the squirning and quibbling in the
world will not change these figures.

STRANGE MURDER
 IN THIRD AVENUE
Harry Morton, a MUlatto, Shot
 and Killed
CASE SHROUDED IN MYSTERY
Victim Was Shot While Talking to An- other Man-The Bullet Said to Have Been Fired by
 White Man.

Harry Morton, mulatto, was shot and instantly killed about Il o'clock last night in Third avenue, between Nineteenth and Twentieth streets. Another negro, whose name could not be ascertained, was shot in the foot. The shots are said to have been fired by a white man.
 The whole affair is wrapped in mystery. Although the street was crowded at the time the shooting occurred, nobody seems to know anything about it. The negro who was killed seems to have been a stranger to most of those present at the time the tragedy occurred. All that could be ascer- tained was that Morton and another mu- latto were together and that Morton was shot and killed and the other negro shot in the foot. It is said that two white men, who were seen together at the time, did the shooting, and that they ran immedi- ately after firing the shots, one of them going off In the direction of Fourth ave- nue and the other turned into Third alley and went into the direction of Twentieth street. They were not known to any of the witnesses to the tragedy.
 Nobody seems to know what the trouble between the men was about, as, in fact, 1t was not known until the fatal shot was fired that they were quarreling. Some of the witnesses state that the men who fired the shots were mulattos, while others say they were white men.

CELEBRATION POSTPONED.
Red Cross Turned Down by Municipal
 Committed.

New York. December 24.-The joint conn., mittee of the municipal assembly appointed to arrange the celebration of the opening of the new century on New Years Eve met today and refused to grant the request of the Red Cross made through Frank D. Higbee, that the committee take up the proposed celebration ito be held under the auspices of the society in Madison Square Garden on New Years Eve.
 MT. Higbee asked at the hearing that the committee take the lease of Madison Square Garden off the hands of the society for that night and use Sousa's band, which it had engaged. He further asked that the cor nittee purchase a batch of greetings from rulers and other personages of note all over the world, the gathering of which cost the society $11,OOO MT. Higbee said. Chairman Sulzer pointed out that this one item would prevent the acceptance of the proposition The municipal assembly appro- priated S2500 for the celebration.
 Mir. Higbee announced that after this re- fusal there would be no Red Cross cele- bration on New Years Eve. The society will postpone the affair until March 1.

POISON IN CLOTHING.
Men Frightened by What They Wear
 as by What They Drink.

From the London Mail.
 Bright colors are very fashionable now, happily for the spirits of those whose lot in life 1t is to inhabit cities as gloomy as Lon don or Manchester are in December, and the smartest tints are those known as fon- dant or bonbon shades, pretty blues, soft pinks, delicate purples and military reds. The strides chemistry has achieved during the past few decades make the production of such lovers easy and their cost inexpen- sive, but unfortunately it also makes adul- iteration easy too, and the use of poisonous dyes is becoming all too common
 Anilines are very extensively used, and very little harm has been traced to fabrics so colored, while chrome yellows contain ing lead greens containing arsenic, and blues containing muriate of soda, have been proved distinctly deleterious.
 Aniline is largely used in colorlng wall papers and window curtains without bad effect, but curious case has just been made public by the French Academy of Medicine relating to the injurious effects of aniine oil, which is used in yellow brown boot paste. Two children wearing these polished boots were poisoned, and the evil was traced to the oil in the paste, which had gradually soaked through the leather.
 Unluckily, there is no ready way of dis eliminating between dyes that are harmful and dies that are not. Experience and con- sequences alone are a guarantee of their innocuous or baneful influences. Those who do art needlework with silks and colored threads should never bite off the end or their silk nor suck 1t in order that it may thread easily through the needles eye, for to those foolish though excusable habits cases of arsenical poisoning have been traced.
 In cases where there are abrasions or sores of any kind upon the limbs-for ex- ample, upon the ships or ankles-dyed hosiery should never be worn unless the broken skin is protected. Scarlet socks, however expensive, should never be worn until they have been thoroughly washed. All the clever chlropodists, after cutting a corn or treating 1t with an acid, protect the place by means of plaster or lint before the patient puts his socks on again. Clothes, dresses and mantle also often reek with poison. Many people have been made ser1- ously i'll after fast walk owing to the dye soaking through to the armpits or other spots and entering the open pores of the skin. There is an immense amount of trickery accomplished in the trade, where indigo-dyed goods are concerned. Even 'worsted indigo" sold at 9s. Cd a yard, have occasionally been found to be som ching else poisonous, having not trace of pure indigo in 1t.
 digo is as follows: Place a piece of cloth half an inch square on a saucer plate, or in a porcelain basin, and drop two or three signs of strong nitric acid on 1t. If pure in- dogois present a big yellow spot within a green rim is quickly developed

The Vanderbilt Millions.

From the Chicago Tribune.
 The schedule of the property of the late Cornelius Vanderbilt, filed in court last week. Is a practical illustration of the earning power of money invested, not In speculative deals, but in securities of an assured earning power. The total value of the property is about s73,oOO.OOo, of which $52, ,999, ,S67 was invested almost exclusively in railroad stocks and bonds, while the re- mainder, little more than 000 was placed in real estate, which did not yield MT. Vanderbilt large income, as much of the property consisted of his own sumptu- ous residences. The bond and stock in- vestments, most of the items in the list having a market value higher than par, brought in interest and dividends little less than $1,750,000 income annually, or about BPS per cent. Considering MT. Van derbilts opportunities for making invest ments and that he never took risks, the New York Times argues that a return of 31a per cent is the most an investor who looks to the security of his principal can expect and that anything above per cent means a risk. Even at this small per- centage however, MT. Vanderbilt was en- toying an assured income of nearly two millions a year. The sureness of the in- come must have carried a sense of comfort and a freedom of apprehension as to the future many others would like to enjoy

At the Situation in South Africa. Tenor of the Christ
 mas Editorials

London, December 25.-Q:2O a. m)-There is no sign of the despondency which char aeterized Black December last year. At the same time the Christmas editorials find little cause for extreme satisfaction. All express regret that the nation is still at war Some take the trouble to remind their readers that there are four times as many troops In South Africa now as there were twelve months ago and all engaged in the monotonous and wearisome duties against an ever-active foe, and needing the sympathy of friends at home at this festive season.
 The Standard, which says that Christ mas finds the British people in a chastened mood, moraiizes upon the strange lack of political foresight regarding the character and the wisdom of the operations against the Boers. It confesses that everything has long since been done that would have been possible to end the war if we had been contending against European DOW ers"
 It Is confident, however. that the settle ment is only question of time.

Second Earthquake Experienced With
 in a Month.

Santiago de Cuba, December 24.-The sec ond earthquake experienced by this dis trict within a month occurred at noon to- day. The shocks were at first scarcely per -ceptible, but they increased steadily, and the last was the most severe known for many years in this region. It would be all most impossible to injure the massive ma sorry of the buildings constituting the principal portion of the city, but some damage was done in the poor quarter and one child was injured by a falling tile.
 The people of the city have deadly fear of a seismic disturbance owing to the de- struction of a cathedral long ago.
 Many of them now predict an early dis aster because of the two earthquakes that have visited Santiago within thirty days
