Sayings of Children.

A little girl somewhat noted for
her quaint and original sayings, said
the other day at the breafast-table
that she had got a piece of bread
head first down her "cough-pipe."-
Standard.
Dicks auntie had often brought
him some tiny chocolate mice, which
he liked very much, except for size.
One day he sided UP to her coaxing-
ly, and said, "Auntie, next time you
buy chocolate mice, won't YOU buy
rats 2"
The eye of a little Washington
miss was attracted by the sparkle of
dew at early morning. Mamma"
she exclaimed, cts hottern I
thought it was!" "What do, you
mean?" "Look here; the a is all
covered with perspiration."
Little Genevieve had been to see
a parade, and. when she got home,
her mamma was asking her what she
saw. "Why," said the child, "the
elephants was the funniest things;
they hadn't any feet, but just walked
On the ends of their legs, and they
had tails on their faces, too."-Se-

The Tariff Situation.

But any one who supposes that the
present tariff is settled should read
the Republican announcements from
Washington. The President is to
warn the special session of Congress
to be called in October of the neces-
sity of readiusting the tariff sched-
ules. and he is to get help from sew
eral quarters in accomplishing this
revision. First. the Government
needs revenue; it could obtain
more from lower duties. in many
cases; where the tariff is so high as
to exclude. of course it provides no
revenue. Second, the protected in
dusLries themselves are disconnected
with the Dinglev schedules. "In the
estimation of many of the ablest
managers of protected industries the
protection now afforded by the Ding
ley act is so great in some cases as
to induce inordinate competition,
with the result that large concerns,
whose business is menaced by the
continual organization of small com
D%etitors. are compelled to absorb the
little fellows at extravagant valua-
tons" In short, these astute gen
tlemen wish to call in the foreigner
to help crush out their domestic RI
walls. Pleasant as it would be to give
them exactly what they want, it really
seems as though when the tariff is
revised some one should be on hand
to represent and speak for the people
whose consumption it taxes as well
as for those whose production it is
supposed to stimulate.-Country

time before he closes his business af,

Firing a Thirteen-inch Gun.

To see a thirteen-inch gun loaded
and fired is a sight not to be for
gotten. The ~proiectile is thirteen
inches in diameter, about three feet
in length and weighs LOO pounds.
The powder charge for target prac-
tice is $50 pounds. The cost for
each shot is about $500. When all is
ready on the range, the signal siren
sounds. there is a binding flash, a
roar like thunder dand a Earring
shock: then you hear the whining
screech of the shell, for all the world
like a fast express roundino a curve.
The proiectile is visible almost from
the time it leaves the gun; you see
it rip through the target and strike
the water beyond, throwing up a col
umn of LIQUID many feet high. The
shell skips, much like the fiat stone
Skipper" of our boyhood. and again
a column of water shoots UP two
miles or more farther out, to be re-
peated time and again. The shell
in its flight can be watched without
the aid of a glass for eight miles or
more in clear weather.-G. Upton

RUssIA's NAVAL STRENGTH.
Drops From Third to Seventh Place
q. S. Now Stands Fourth.

Washington, July 8. - Russia's
great losses in the engagement in
the Korean straits has brought the
navy of that empire from third place
among the navies of the world down
to seventh, while Japan, by virtue of
her prizes, rises from seventh place
to fifth. AS complied by officials of
the Navy Department, the relative
strength of the navies of the world
IS o as follows: Great Britain,
France, Germany, United States,
Janan, Italy, Russia and Austria.
At the beginning of the war the total
tonnage of the Russian navy, by
which the strength of all navies is
calculated, was 1000 ions and
Japan 100000 tons, just about half
of the Russian navy. Russia was
then third and Japan seventh in
strength.

To Dethrone the Car.

London, July S.-The Vienna cor
respondent of the Chronicle claims
to have excellent authority for say
ing that a conspiracy is afoot among
the Russian reactionaries to dethrone
the Gar. They reproach the En-
peror for his excessive weakness and
mcompliance.a as shown by his project
ed reforms which are calculated to
undermine the power of the bureauc-
racy. They demand a stronger ruler,
who will be able to hold the reform
ers in check. The reactionaries de-
sire as Nicholas successor Grand

nothing would be more satisfactory
thar such consummation.

The graft investigation by a grand
Jury in Milwaukee is of such ma
ture as to attract the attention OF the
country, \ larger number of in
dictments have b en- found there
than Mt any place, and the inyesti-
CATION has brauched out more than

various phases of corruption and

open alliance. The indictment of
Mr.. Phster, who is described as a
millionaire, though possibly he has
other qualities, opened the eyes of
the public as nothing else could have
done. Now it is stated in Milwaukee
dispatches that the grand jury is in
vestigating the whole subject Of

is possible Mayor Rose viii be drawn

well known throughout the country,
as he has been several times elected
