ABOUT THAT STAIRWAY.
Judge Gager Granted an Injunction in
 the Case To-day.


 Judge Gager this morning granted q temporary injunction against Michael Guilfoile restraining him from inlerfer- ing with John Fruin and Edward Ait:- Grath ill their relations regarding their respective properties on South Main street. This is the latest phase be- tween MT Guilfoile on the one side aad Messrs McGrath and Fruin on the other regarding the right of certain stairway which should be on the de fendant's property. Previous to the great fire this stairway was upon tle property of Mir Guilfoile and was main tained by the trio according to writ ten contract. Tn the fire the building was partially destroyed and the stair way was obliterated altogether MT Guilfoile claims that this annulled the contract while Messrs McGrath and Fruin claim it does not Anyhow, MT Guilfoile in rebuilding his property tef. out the stairway, thus cutting off the entrance to the upper floors of the ad- joining property owned by McGrath and Fruin. What steps the latter will take under the protection of the in- junction are not definitely known.
 When Senator Kennedy, counsel with Attorney Cole for McGrath and Fruin, was asked that question this forenoon, he replied: 'They will build q stairway right away"
 How can they do thatF
 "Oh. aren't there plenty of axes irtd saws in Waterbury to go ahead with?
 It can be seen from this that unless matters are adjusted Fruin and afc Grath intend cutting away the walls where the old stairway stood aud building another stairway.

HEROINE OF PHOTOGRAPHY.

The First Woman Who Ever Sat for
Sun Picture.
The death last Tuesday morning at
Hastings on the Hudson of Miss Anna
Catherine Draper, the first woman who
ever sat for her photograph" brings
forcibly to mind the fact that the art
Of photography has been developed
from Daguerre's crude invention to it's
present perfection within the compass
of single lifetime.
In 1889, when Daguerre's discovery
was first announced, the famous scien-
tist DR.. John w. Draper, then mem
Der of the faculty of the University of
New York, was pursuing his researches
in the chemical phenomena of light,
whose results are among his most val
uablea contributions to science. Da-
queries announcement interested Dr..
Draper greatly, and he at once made it
the subject of special study. He was
the first person in the world to utilize
Daguerre's process in the portraiture
of human beings. His sister was the
sitter for the nrSt Photographic por-
trait from life, taken sixty-two years
ago, on the roof of the old university
building, Theodore Winthrops Chrysa-
lis college, if tradition is trustworthy
AS the length of the exposure was
six minutes, during which Miss Draper
had to sit absolutely motionless in the
full glare of the sun. with her face
thickly covered with white metallic
powder, her services to science in
volved sufficient of personal incon-
venience and discomfort to give her a
claim to be entitled the heroine of pho
Biography, and to be held in honor by
the countless thousands to whom the
art of photography, with all its cog
nate and related arts, is now source
of pleasure, of education, of culture,
of livelihood. of wealth.

RUBIES AND DIAMONDS.
Tho Former Are Becoming More Rare
and Cost More Than Latter.


and Cost More Than Latter.
All the world loves ruby-or
should; and all who know their fascln-
alton will welcome some facts concern
ing them which have been given cur
rency by Paris technical journal, lie
Diamant, which are of timely interest,
in view Of the increasing popularity or
these gems and their recent material
advance In price.
There are three varieties-oriental,
Siamese and the spinel. The first Is
the most beautiful of all colored gems
They are becoming more and more
rare and, weight for weight, are valued
ten to twenty fold the price of dia-
India and China.
The Siamese rubies are very dark
red, the spinel is less richly colored.
The largest ruby known Is one OF the
crown jewels of Russia. The shah OF
Persia has a ruby of ITS carats. Gus
tavus Adolphus of Sweden had one of
the size of small egg and of perfect
water, which was presented to the
czarina of Russia in 1877. 1871 France
had in its crown jewels eighty-one
oriental rubies.
Gems of small inarinsic value are
just now commanding prices higher
than they would be valued at by ex-
perts, which is always the case with
stones which become fashionable, and
it is safe rule that those who buy
stones of this class should exercise the
same care they would or should in pur-
chasing diamonds. The demand has
called out large number of second
and third class rubies from their hid
ing places, and in new mountings they
are masquerading as jewels of great
price.
The ruby is skillfully initiated, says
the New York Times, and not few
are worn which are only of the grade
of paste diamonds without suspicion
on the part of their owners that they
are not what they are assumed to be.
No bargains in desirable rubies are to
be had in the markets of Europe or
America. Those worth buying for in
vestment are snapped up on sight by
the gem sharps, and the person who
purchases from them will in every in
stance pay their value.

A Reasonable Reduction.

Unreconciled to the gloomy pros
pect for wide open reciprocity, the
Chicago Evening Post plaintively
asks: Are there no industries which
are sufficiently established to stand a
reasonable reduction of duty?" 1t
may be there are such, but If so, what
of it? A reasonable" reduction of
duty would amount to nothing in the
estimation of foreign competitors. 1t
must be such a reduction as will rem
der the duty non-Protective. What
they clamor for, and what the Post
seems to think they should have, Is
an unreasonable reduction of tariff
duties; a foolish, destructive reduc-
ton; one that will enable them to
break into this market and undersell
domestic producers; such reduction
as would either close our mills and
factories, or else lower the American
standard of wages and of living and
thus diminish the purchasing capac-
ity and the consuming power of our
wage earners. That is what the for
eigners want Is it what the Chicago
Evening Post wants?

That Was the difference.

Eyes. that is where he made a mis-
take" said Mclean, referring to the
latest act of stupidity on the part of
McFarlane. Il don't call such an ac-
ton as that a mistake" replied old
Cormack dictatorially; Il call 1T a
blunder." well, it's all the same
thing" returned Mclean. Ma, you're
wrong there" was Cormack's reply;
there's a good deal of difference be-
tween a blunder and a mistake" Il
should like to know what it is an
swered Mclean skeptically. well,
suppose you went to call on some
friend, put an old umbrella into the
stand, and took away new one when
YOU left, that would be mistake; but
suppose you put down new one and
brought away an old one, that would
be a blunder, dye see?" Mclean ad-
mitted that there was difference after
all.-From Tit-Bits.

One-sided Reciprocity.

To illustrate one-sided reciprocity let
us name Canada. Canada wants free
access to our markets. and in return
will cheerfully give us free access to
hers. Canada has 100000 people; the
United States has SO.0O0,OO0. Her peo-
pie can buy Of us. provided Great Brit
ain does not demand her trade. one
sixteenth of what we would naturally
buy Of her. Though her soil is Ameri-
can and she controls a great deal of the
North American continent, the wages
paid by her for labor are 20 to 80 Ter
cent lower than in the United States.
She would. Of course. ill our markets
with cheap goods to compete with bet
tar paid American labor. Such a condi-
\ ion would undoubtedly help Canadian
immigration, OF which there has Zee !
practically none for half a century. II

Michigan Farmer Visits Saskatoon

Mr.. S. X. Lent was ! delegate sent
from the farmers of Allegan County,
Michigan, to Western Canada, to re-
port on the prospects for successful
settlement. His report is as follows:
| went from Winnipeg to Edmonton,
thence east one hundred miles by
wagon. found the country In that
vicinity rich, black loan, varying
from IL inches to 3 feet deep; the
crops are simply something enormous;
wheat and oats by actual measure
ment often standing five feet in height.
| have been farmer for forty years,
and consider myself fair judge of
tho yield of grain, and l saw wheat
that would yield so bushels per acre,
and oats that would yield 100 bushels
per acre; not one alone, but good
many. AS for root crops and garden
truck in no country have l ever seen
their equal for all kinds except corn
and tomatoes; the nights being too cool
for these to ripen well. AS stock
country 1t has no equal. East Of Ed
monitor, on the head waters Of the
Vermillion River, 1 saw hay meadows
containing from 10 to 100 acres, the
grass standing feet high, and would
often cut to tons to the acre.
From Edmonton l passed through
some fine locations, namely, Weta-
skiwin, Lacombe and other points.
From Mcleod I went to Regina,
thence to Prince Albert, 247 miles
north of the main line. For the first
fifty miles is fine farming country but
the next hundred miles is more of a
stock country. Then at Saskatoon
Rosthern and Duck Lake found some
very fine farming country, so good
that l found party of Americans
from Minnesota buying land for them
selves-one party buying II sections,
and the other 20 sections of land for
themselves, which they proposed to
improve at once.
have travelled over twenty-three
different States and Territories in our
Union, and never in my life time have
l ever seen such magnificent crops and
especially as fine a stock country.

The Cuban Carving Trade.

Lately the Tribune made the admir-
able suggestion that any reductions In
the duties between this country and
Cuba should be confined to such COM
modities as were carried under either
the American or the Cuban nag,
Cuban vessels to be built in the
United States. This proposition i'm
mediately meets with opposition from
the Munson line, whose ships are
greatly Norwegian, that sail under
temporary charters. The prompt OPP
position of this line seems to nave
killed the Tribune's proposition, and
this foreign line, that neither employs
American sailors nor repairs or out
fits it's ships in American ports, seem
to be debating the maritime policy
of this country.
