The curtain descends. The dialogue
is repeated-this time addressed to
another guest. When the curtain rises
to the sound of shrill, sharp whistle
with no music in it, Cupid appears
bathed in green light.

adores you, but who is extremely jeal-
Gus; his jealousy will mar your happi-

At the conclusion of this little drama,
which may be varied and added to, ac-
cording to the hostess pleasure and
wit, very pretty ending to the even
ing is given after supper by a distri-
button of inexpensive gifts in a novel
and charming way. If the hall and
staircase or balustrade are built on
generous scale the affair can be work
ed out to perfection. Long, red ropes,
or ropes twined with greenery and rib
bons, are suspended from the balus-
trade above. There are as many ropes
as guests, each having the name of
guest attached to the lower end. AS
the one whose name is in order pulls
his rope a bell rings, and down slides
a present, well wrapped up. Obviously
the gifts must be unbreakable ones.
Precisely at the midnight hour all the
bells are set pealing.

tleman of elegant leisure; If of thunder
and lightning, the occupation of the
future will require much time spent IN
treveling; if the dream is filled with odd
noises and tumults, the lord and master
will be a tradesman.

| headed protectionists of the past have
not yet been able to see it, and are in
clined to plant themselves against it.
Many of the opposition, mistaking 1t
entirely, are beginning to claim 1t as
prospective triumph for their theories.
| The latter are as utterly mistaken as
they always have been. The former
are all right, only their eyes have not
yet learned to see the broader scoops
and greater usefulness Of the prlhci-
| pies which they have all their lives ad-
vocated and upheld.
when James G.. Blaine, protec-
ZIONIST from the beginning, announced
the policy of reciprocity, he proclaimed
the approach of the new protection.
President Mckinley, whose name is as
closely linked with the traditional pol
icy as that of any man can be, has
perceived the interests which we are
to protect in the future, and in his dec
larations about trade extension he has
outlined something of what that new
protection shall be. We are not going
to copy the example of Great Britain.
If we are wise, we shall not frame a
tariff in imitation of that of any other
country in the world, but our states
men will take into consideration those
| things American which contribute
most to the national greatness and
strength and prosperity, and will use
their wisest and best judgment to so
frame the tariffs and the revenue acts
of the future that advantage shall fall
to these interests, while those which
need no fostering care, or possibly some
of those which may without harm be
checked in development will be left
to bear the weight of the burden. Not
protection to American manufactures,
nor even protection to American indus
try, but protection TO all American in
terests will be the keynote of the new
protection of the future"
One of the remarkable things about
the new protection is HAT the Pres
ident is said to be in harmony with the
idea. He has always stood as the
foremost apostle of protection to Amer
lean labor and American industries,
and if he indorses the change of front,
the chances seem to be that it will be
generally agreed upon by the party.

CHINESE IN LONG BEARDA
MonRolians Wore Whishkers, but Dry
shaving Ruined Them.

Shaving Ruined Them.
"Dry shaving has been a blessing to
China and in less than 800 years has
almost removed boards from the faces
Of the men Of the empire observed
an intelligent Chinaman to reporter.
"Originally the Chinese had heavy
boards. This is easily verified by an
examination of any of the old prints
of Cinnamon, for all OF them show
long bearded men. In time people
found that there was no particular use
for 4 beard and that the wearing of II
was expensive, outside of the time
actually occupied in trimming or shaw
ing it. How many Americans of to-
day are forced to spend several hours
week in n barber's chair! Many
men that 1 know, Americans and Eu-
ropeans as well, spend twenty minutes
in the barber's chair every day.
'The Chnaman of the olden times,
the kind of Chinaman who figures as
a pirate in your prints, for the good
Chinaman never seems to have got his
picture in your books at all, until with
in the last fifty years at most, always
wore long beard in reality as well
as in the pictures. But even he found
out that there WAS no necessity for it.
The learned men of the empire were
asked to consider the matter and they
arrived ut Ine cOuCluSlou tudt uIy SudN-
ing was to some extent a remedy.
Anyhow, official edicts were issued CIV
ing this Information. The old feDw
who had boards of course were not in
it and they lived out their days and
passed out of existence with full
boards. but the young men were asked
to dr. shave Thus the reform start
ed and in five or six generations OF
people the beard had practically disap-
peared, so that the average Chinaman
to-day does not have to devote over
one-haif hour in month to keep his
face hairless. In the next two gener-
ations boards are expected to disap-
pear absolutely. 1t took time to bring
this about, but in the life of a nation

Cuban Suffrage.

The Cuban constitutional convention
has appointed committee to draw
up an electoral law and submit 1t to
the convention. The members of the
committee are Seniors Diego, Tapayo,
De Quesada, Maru, De Castro ana
Monteagudo. A majority of these gen
tlemen are strongly conservative, ana
1t is expected that they will submit
bill which will restrict the suffrage by
educational or property qualifications;
and If universal manhood sui Is
retained by the convention, that at
least an educational or property quail
fication will be adopted for persons
who seek office.
Some of the papers in this country,
in announcing that the convention had
adopted the principle of universal suf-
frage, took it for granted that this
meant suffrage for women as well as
for men. We do not understand it so.
Before there was any woman suffrage
in this country, our suffrage was gen.
orally described as Understanding
thereby universal manhood suffrage;
and we suppose that it is the meaning
that is attached to the phrase in Cuba.
The universally of the suffrage in
Hawaii-using the word universal in
the sense of manhood suffrage-has
produced a good deal of trouble in
those islands. and there is some reason
to believe that the results would be
similar in Cuba. We have universal
uffrage in this country; but here we
have had universal free schools for a
great many years, and the theory Is
that every graduate of public school
is fitted fairly well for the exercise of
the duties of citizenship. In Cuba
there has been no such general educa-
ton, and it will be many years before
the people of that island are as well
fitted for universal suffrage as the peo-
| pie of the United States.

GRAND COLORADO SPRINGS
OUARTO.CENTENNIAL BEGINS

Colorado Springs. Colo, Aug. 1.-The
first day of the Quarto Centennial cele-
bration at Colorado Springs opened
this morning under the most auspi-
cious favorable conditions. The va
rious events took place in the order
scheduled, witnessed by large and en-
thusiastic crowds. The immense influx
of vicitors, the Elks' street fair, com
bined with the flood of delegates from
every point in the West, make the
joint celebration one of the largest and
greatest affairs of any public descrip-
ton that has ever occurred in the
state.
The Springs presents gala appear

colored bunting, mingled with the pur-
pie and white of the Elks' order. In
Vulnerable American flags wave from
every window and fiagpost, and green
and red lights placed Mt intervals of
half n block on both sides of the street
render the scene one of indescribable
gaiety.
At noon, in the presence of an i'm
mense multitude, the statue of Zebu-
Ion Pike, on Cascade avenue, Colorado
Springs, was unveiled. In the after
noon Colorado pioneers from all parts
of the state held their reunion. There
was n large attendance of those who

The proclamation that free trade is
be hailed with delight by members of
every party in this country. Before
and since the passage of the measure
imposing a tariff upon the imports
from that island the Democrats have
continued to declaim about the tyranny
of such an act, about how it was going
to grind down the poor Porto Ricans
so that they never would be able to
pay their own expenses, and some part
of the expense of ruling the island
would always have to be paid by the
United States. Now free trade is soon
to be resumed, and the island has de-
clared its intention of governing itself.
The Democrats should be glad because
the iniquitous measure is repealed, and
the Republicans are rejoicing because
their policy has met with success. So
it is matter of congratulation all
around and not least to the Porto Ri
cans. that they are now sufficient unto
themselves. After the terrible hurri-
case which was the direct cause of
the tariff law, it was thought that it
would take many more years than it
has for the island to recover from its
damage. But prosperity has come to
it, also, and in less than a year after
the tariff law went into effect the
Porto Ricans are ready for self gov
ernment. "a
