THEY FEAR CRY OF TARIFF
Standpatters Hasten TO Rob Demo-
Gratis Of Issue.
IN THE C0MING CAMPAIGN THIS FALL
HEPBURN AND McCLEARY ARE
CHOSEN TO STEM THE DE-
MAND FOR REVISION.
IN THE COMING CAMPAIGN THIS FALL

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 25.-
Within the past week or ten days there
has been a decided outbreak in the
press and on the floor of the house
regarding the necessity for a revision
of the tariff, and it reached its height
last week when Representative Rainey,
the only democratic representative
from Illinois, made his illustrated adj
dress on the exactions of the watch
manufacturers from home consumers.
The tariff outbreak began with the
demand of certain New England inter-
ests for a hearing on revision before
the ways and means committee. This
demand was answered by a letter from
Chairman Payne of that committee, in
which he said there would be no tariff
revision during the life of the present
congress.
Then there was a letter written by
Speaker Cannon to the Ohio pottery
men, in which he stated that revision
must come in the not distant future
and that the people at the polls next
November would have an opportunity
to put themselves on record in the
election of a new house of represent
tatives. Then Mr.. Rainey made his
speech and after him came Mr.. Per-
kins. of Rochester, N. Y. who told
about the smelling trust and the bur-
den it places upon the country through
the tax on lead.
Wave Sweeps Nation.
In the public prints there have been
full reports of these demands and ad-
dresses, Illuminated by editorials and
cartoons. There has not been such an
intense tariff revision outbreak for
several years as the one which is on,
and the end is not yet come.

New York College Structure Will
Be Upto-Date.
FIVE BUILDINGS NEARING COMPLETION

FIVE BUILDINGS NEARING COMPLETION

NEW YORK, April 25.-New York
will soon have the most up-to-date
college buildings ever constructed.
The group of five buildings, now near
ing completion on Washington Heights.
will be the future home of the college
of the city of New York. 1t has cost
$4,000 600 and will afford accommodate
ton for nearly 5000 students.
The new buildings present a very
handsome and substantial appearance
and are attracting much attention.
Uniformity of design and symmetry of
grouping are especially noticeable This
is due to the fact that the entire group
was designed and planned all at once
under the direction of one architect
instead of being the result of a gradual
growth as has been the case with so
many other colleges. Dark gray stone
obtained on the Site has been used for
the walls, and pressed white terra Gotta
for the corners, window frames and
Quoins This gives a general effect of
granite and white marble.
The site is on ideal one. 1t over
looks the Hudson on one side and Long
Island sound on the other. and COM
mands a view of the city for MANY
miles.
owing TO the large number of stu
dents who are to occupy them. it was
determined that these buildings should
represent the most advanced form OF
freproof construction. 1t was resolved
that the danger of fire starting in or
destroying any particular structure
should be reduced to minimum, and
the possibility of its spreading to 9TH
ers eliminated altogether. This has
been effected by the use of hollow
tile fireprocfng from the basement &C

Representative Hepburn of Iowa is
scheduled to make a reply to Repre-
sentative Rainey, and after him 1t is
said that Representative McCleary of
Minnesota is to deliver a tariff speech
which has been long in course of prep
aratiOn.
One thing is clear, and that is that
the Rainey speech must be answered.
1t was made to a crowded house and
was illustrated by series of charts
and photographs set on a large easel
in front of the speakers platform. 1t
is admitted that his speech is the
strongest yet made in this congress in
behalf of revision. and already the
democrats are making preparations to
have it printed by the millions of cop
les for distribution in every congress
sional district in the country.
To Make Tariff Issue.
1t is the purpose of the democrats to
make the tariff the chief issue in the
compaign this year, and they figure
that it will be an easy matter to DO
this. The rate issue is non-partisan in
every sense, and it is conceded that the
senate will pass some bill to which the
president can give his approval.
90 ho
made by Representative Rainey, the
republican standpatters have engaged
Representative Hepburn to reply to it.
Hepburn being from the middle west,
and representing an agricultural dis
trict, it is figured, can make a more
effective reply than any of the repre-
sentatives from the manufacturing
burn is a logical and a convincing
talker.
Just what line of reply Mr.. Hepburn
is to take has not been definitely dis
closed, but it is understood that he is
dealer in New York, who was used by
Mr.. Rainey to prove his position, has
juggled the situation so as to bring
business to his door. 1t is charged
that he will not sell a movement I'M
less he sells case to go with it, and
that he makes enough profit on the
case to give a fair profit on the whole
transaction. In short, it is claimed
that the New York dealers PROPOSE
ton is not fair, and will not stand the
test of analysis.

VIBRATION.
Designs In Sand Formed by the Pro.
ductiOn of Sounds.

ductiOn of Sounds.
Did you ever hear that you can make
drawings by sound, or, rather, that the
sound vibrations will cause designs to
be made with the proper implements
at hand? Here is the way to do 1t:
At a hardware store get a piece of
sheet brass o%ne-eighth of an inch thick
and six inches square. The sheet
should be perfectly fiat, or If 1t Is not
t should be hammered so and the
c1ges rounded off. In the center Of the
vpeet cut a hole three-sixteenths of an
,ncF in diameter. If the sheet has
heon hapmered it must now be heated
in a redhot stove and cooled slowly.
Now cut a six inch piece from a.
broom handle and fix n end of it
firmly in a block o. wood. The other
ond vo,, ,nrs+ round off and screw the
plate of brass on 1t.
If you draw a 'ioiin W" oVer lne
edpa of rho hrass plate a tone will be
sounded PRACTICE this until the tone
is ouita clear and strong. Now sprin-
kle some sand on me pla.e' anu the
grains will dance spout while the note
ia soundad showing that the plate is
in vibration.
Now put your fneer vi 'he euee VI
+ba nIate in tho niddle Of one side. At
tho cornar of tbf side at an angle Of
for+v-ava doorers draw the bow, and
Tho sand will FIRM In two lines at right
angles starti-g from your finger. This
is hacansa The plate now vibrates in
narts one part moving up, while the
other moves down, and ne lines be-
tween these parts have no motion.
Tberefore the sand settles in them.
By rswing the bow at regular dis
tancno rom the finger or by touching
me plate in more than one place at a
time while some one else draws the
bow a variety of sand figures will be
made.
If you will mix a little l%ycopodium
powder with the sand when the plate
vibrates it will form curious little
heaps and w%hirlpools, which add to the
moving effect of the designs.
Instead Of a brass plate you may use
one of glass six or eight inches square,
and its sharp edges you may smooth
down with a file moistened with tur-
pentine.
To prove to yourself that the plate is
still or almost so at the sand lines
make a cardboard cone about ten inch
es long, two and a half inches in diam
eter at its larger end and small enough
at the other end to fit into a rubber
tube, which should be about two feet
long. Let one person cause the plate
to vibrate, while another holds the
large end of the cone over the plate,
applying the rubber tube to the ear.
When the middle of the cone is exact
ly over a sand line scarcely any tone at
all will be heard, and the nearer the
cone is to the sand line the weaker the
sound will be, while it will be clear
and strong at the farthest points from
the sand lines, proving that the sand
falls into lines, and as the parts of the
plate move in opposite directions on
each side of the sand lines their effect
is equaliZed or destroyed, causing no
sound in the air In the cone balance
when directly over those lines.-Cleve-
land Plain Dealer.

HAD FATAL MURDER BRAND
Mark on Texas Steer Played Strange
Part In q Number Of
Tragedies.

The big white steer, which was
known to the cowmen and others In
west Texas on account OF the popular
brand which 1t bore on its left side and
the tragedies in which it had played
a passive but important part, Is dead.
The death recalls a series OF the start
ling murders in this region, says an
Alpine (Tex.) special to the Kansas
City Times. The steer was an outcast
for IL years. It roamed the range at
will. Many are the lonely travellers to
whom 1t brought chill Of terror when
they caught sight Of the words which
we're branded in large letters across
the length of its left side. These words
were: Murder, 1885," Judge Van
Sickle, OF this place, 10 familiar with
the tragic incidents in the life OF this
remarkable steer. He said:
in January, 1889, a big roundup
took place ON the Leon Cipa ranch, in
Brewster county. There were many
cowboys in this roundup, and some
were desperate characters A dispute
arose between H. H. Powe and Fine
Gilliland az to the ownership and
branding Of certain yearling. The
two men fought q desperate duel at
close range with six-shooters. Howe
was one-armed. Gilliland killed Howe,
mounted a horse and fed to escape the
vengeance OF the cowboys, who had
taken sides with Howe. The yearling
was roped and branded Murder, 1889,
and then turned loose on the range.
six weeks after the killing two mem
bers Of ranger squad-John Putnam
and T. r. Cook-started on a scout for
Fort Stockton. In the mountains they
came face to face with Gilliland. In
the tight Cook was wounded and GILL;
land was killed where he fought BE-
side his dead horse.
Putnam and Cook were surveying
the scene Of the late battle when q
white steer walked out Of q bunch Of
scrubby live oaks and shifted at GILL;
lands body. AZ the animal turned to
walk away the two rangers saw the
brand, Murder, 1885, on its left side
That steer was more than rs miles
from where 1t was branded and turned
loose six months before.
Some time before Gilliland's death
'Jefr Webb, a nephew OF Gilliland, left
Alpine with pet bear. The morning
following his dead body was found on
the road toward Fort Davis. Gilliland
suspected that Webb had been killed
by Sam Taylor, desperado. One night
not long after this. Taylor was killed
In the back room OF a saloon at Alpine
while playing poker by some one who
fired load OF buckshot through the
window. He leaned forward over the
table. the cards still grasped in his
lifeless hand. He had just won a pot
with aces and eights, which was there
after known az dead mans hand
In after years the outcast steer was
seen at night standing meditatively
near the window OF that saloon"
