That he unsuccessfully appointed a
commission to go to Europe and per-

The Cabinet Falling to Pieces.

President McKinley's Chinese policy
is rapidly disrupting his cabinet. II
is conceded by persons who are famil.
lar with the relations between the
President and his official advisers that
if election day were not 80 close at
hand at least one member of the cabi.
net, and perhaps two, would tender
their designations and get out. In
any event only one member of the
present cabinet, Secretary Wilson,
contemplates remaining with the
President if he should be reelected.
All OF the others will retire.
Secretary Hay will go because
there is demand for his head from
the Republican politicians. Secretary
Long will quit voluntarily, because, as
a distinguished member of a promi-
nent peace organization, he is out OF
sympathy with the policy that con.
templates the maintenance of an
armed force in China for an indefinite
period. It is a fact that the Secre.
tary of the Navy has not spent week
in Washington since the middle OF
June.

their own as to the course that ought

Mrs, POtter's Enalish Home.

Mrs. Brown Potter is a lucky wo-
man. Not only has lady Meux, with
royal generosity, made her a present
of play by Belasco, but Belasco him.
self made her parting gift OF the
Australian rights of Madame Butter
fly" The playwright's telegram on
sailing for America last week was
worded as follows: Butterfly be-
longs to me. You can have it for
Australia. Goodbye. God take fond
care of you. Yours, always faithful,
David Belaseo." The gift is very
apropos, as Mrs. Brown Potter has
received an offer from James William
son to star in Australia in the carly
part of 1901. The Belasco play,
written to order expressly for her, is
expected to be ready by or before that
time and to be seen first in a London
production. It will be a part as long
and as strong as Zaza, but depicting
an entirely different style of woman.
Mr.. Belasco believes that, with the
right part, Mrs. Potter will prove the
most profitable of attractions.
Bray Lodge, Mrs. Potter's new
home, is one of the most fascinating
places on the river, and is already an
object of attraction to passing launch
parties. 1t is short drive from
Maidenhead in the parish of Bray,
and has frontage of 300 feet directly
on the river. Mrs. Potter has been
her own architect and furnisher and
the building and gardening have
been going OH for nearly year. The
house is on terrace and before it a
large lawn, shady with trees and
brilliant with flower beds, slopes gently
to the river. On the right is a glimpse
as the river winds from the village and
the old church of Bray. On the left
are lawns and gardens and across the
river lisa fair landscape of trees and
waving grain. Bray Lodge is an
Elizabethan cottage in red brick,
while stucco and black timbers. One
corner is like corner OF Anne Hatha-
ways cottage, the continuation is like
Shakespeare's birthplace and the side
facing the road is like a certain
Elizabethan house in Chester. The
windows-and there are many OF them
are kept brilliant with flowers, and
the general air of the place is alluring.

HENS PROFITABLE CROP.
Thsv Arc the Source OF Greater Wealth in
Missouri Than Grain Fields.

The ,umma5, 81 Missouri, rrUluC-
tons lor l>.r', prepared Icy the State
Labor Bureau and published in the
daily new ,papcr~ a few days ago, pre-
stnts some amusing facts when closely
analyIod, not the lea,t of which are
the unparalleled achievements OF
Queen Observation-Disclosures known
as the Missouri hen. As q wealth
producer she is world beaten. The
total number OF pounds OF poultry,
live and dressed, shipped from Mis-.
souri's III counties in 1899, as report
cd from the railroad and express COM
panies, was log, 9SS,710, an increase Of
3G,707 ,443 pounds over the preceding
wear. The total number OF dozens OF
eggs shipped last year was 34,s73,O4O
and the aggregate value to the pro-
ducer of poultry and eggs was $l2,O9l,-
OiS.5i.
The relative Importance of the poul-
try industry in this State as compared
with other industries, will be better
understood when it is shown that the
total value OF all OF the wheat, corn,
oats, flax, timothy seed, clover seed,
millet seed, cane seed, castor beans,
cotton, cotton seed, tobacco, broom
corn, hay and straw which was shipped
by all of the counties in the State last
year did not equal the value of the
poultry and eggs shipped during the
same time by over ST., 900.
Here is another comparisons: Ag-
gregate the value of all OF the horses,
mules, sheep, oats, rye, grass seed, cane
seed, castor beans, cotton, cotton seed,
tobacco, hay and straw shipped last
year and the hen will beat the combi-
nation over $4,000.
Take the value of all Of the mill
products-flour, corn meal and mill
feed-all OF the fruits and vegetables,
all of the butter, cheese, milk, game
and fish, furs, feathers, molasses,
honey, beeswax, wine, ice, tar, cider,
vinegar, nursery stock, nuts, roots,
junk, linseed oil, oil and cottonseed
meal and cob pipes shipped in 1899
ard by comparison Queen Chicka-
biddy will distance the aggregation
and have 100000 bank account to
her credit.
If the present rate of increase con-
tinues for ten years, at the end of that
time the poultry industry will rival
the total output of all our mines.

AT HIS OLD TRICKS.

Mckinley, with characteristic dis
honesty, bordering on infamy, at
tempts to make the money question
the paramount issue in this campaign.
This is the burden of his letter OF &C.
ceptance,' which was given to the
American people last week. When
you think about it, it is really more
like Mckinley than Mckinley is like
himself. Four years ago the money
question was the one real issue before
the country, yet it would have takeE
four yoke OF bulls to have pulled him
upon a platform declaring for the
gold standard. He was so afraid OF
losing the silver Republican vote that
the mere mention Of gold sent cold
chill down his alleged spine. He
harped about "sound money" and
"good money" but the man does not
live who secured from him a defini-
ton of what he considered "sound
money" and "good money" He did
his best to divert the attention of the
voter to the WORKOUT and repudiated
protection" chestnut. The Republi-
can party won out by bribery, fraud
and intimidation, pledged to the reten-
ton of the gold standard until the
same could be gotten rid of with the
consent of Great Britain, with which
power Mckinley has since formed a
secret alliance. Having won the cleo
ton on fraudulent plea for "inter-
national bimetallism," the Republican
party fastens the British gold standard
upon the country and then plans to
set up an empire upon the ruins of the
republic which it seeks to destroy.
This action OF the Mckinley admins
tration is so plain and premeditated
that the people of this country from
the Atlantic to the Pacific are rising
up as one man to drive the enemies OF
the Republic from power. The oppo-
sition to Mckinley and his villainous
policy has already assumed the pro-
portion of a great tidal wave. Only
those who are politically deaf, dumb
and blind fail to realize the tremen-
dous uprising now going on in this
country against the insane and crini-
nal policy of those responsible for Mr..
McKinley's administration. In the
face of these conditions it is not sur
prising that Mckinley, the shuffler,
the double-dealer, the dishonest politi-
cal quack and cowardly trimmer,
should seek to sidetrack the para.
mount issue of Imperialism and set up
his frayed and battered straw man OF
Sound money" This is the resort Of
the INSCRIPTIONS politician, the con.
temptible hypocrite who damned
Cleveland because he was not friendly
to the silver dollar, which he himself
financially crucified at the behest Of
the nations enemies in Wall street.
This attempt of Mckinley to avoid
the issue which is certain to over
whelm him is in perfect keeping with
his past acts in public life. 1t is the
final play in the public career of the
greatest mountebank who has through
false pretense and fraud attained to
prominent position in this country.

Cobwebs on Telegraph Wires.

Small spiders play havoc with the
telegraph wires in the Argentine
Republic. The long cobwebs settle
on the wires and as soon as dew or
rain falls they are rendered to some
extent a conductor and the effect is
practically to stop the operation OF
some of the lines. The government
has determined to connect Buenos
Ayres and Rosario by an underground
cable 100 miles long to obviate this
difficulty.
