ing the conclusion that the tariff is too high and they will not get much satisfac- tion out of the republican platform which spends more time and employs more words cautioning you against going too far on the tariff reform than 1t does in urging the party to act at all in that directlon'
 'I remember visiting Iowa 16 years ago and l heard a republican make a speech in favor of a republican tariff. That was before the republicans of Iowa be- gan to study the subject, and 1 can re- call the impression made upon me, not merely by the speech, but by Its recep- ton by the republicans present, when the speaker declared that the repupllcah party put the tariff on wool for the pen eft of the republican farmer in order 10 raise the price of wool, and those re- publican farmers raised their corn stalk canes and hurrahed for the tariff on wool to raise its price and when, little later, the speaker explained that the re- publican party had put the tarin on woolen goods in order to lower the price of woolen goods, the same republican farmers raised the same corn stalk canes and gave the same yell in favor or the tariff on the manufactured product to lower it's price. They thought they hau found a tariff that could be put on the raw material and raise the price of ma terial. and they could put the same tariff on the woolen goods and lower the price of those woolen goods.
 'I wish I had the time to go over tho platform, but there are so many good democrats in the state of Iowa who are able to explain and defend that plat form that it is not necessary for me to speak at length, and l am glad that you have a man like Frank White to so for ciblv give expression to all the demo- cratic aspirations of the democratic haart

A CHINESE REVOLUTIONARY.
Fate of Enthusiast Who Wanted To
 Stir Up SIothfuI Officials.

From the Chicago News.
 A remarkable work in Chinese re- gently fell into the hands of mission ary in south China. It is anonymous and purports to be an account of the life of Hsu Hsi-lin, who assassinated the governor of Anhui last year. From the days of his youth this man seems to have been consumed with the desire 1 to stir up the slothful officials of his country. At the age of 30 he took his degree in China, and after few years spent in scholastic work he went to Germany, where he made special study of military matters. He then studied for few months in Japan, and finally returned to the province of Anhui, where the governor, En Ming, 1 soon came to regard him as his right hand man. While enjoying the favor and patronage of the governor, Hsu was organizing a plan to raise the standard of revolt and sweep the Man. chu rulers out of China.
 His first plan was to secure the at 1 tendance of the governor and other 1 prominent officials at the examination of military students, whom he had been l training. He had the floor of the ban 1 quoting hall mined, but for some req son or other the governor did not at- tend on that day The viceroy at Nan king got wind of the secret importa- tion of arms by Hsu's followers, and wrote to the governor ordering him to make every effort to suppress the smuggling of weapons When the gov ernor, contrary to his usual custom. elected to visit the military college one morning Hsu feared that his plans had been discovered, and, accordingly, de- termined to assassinate the governor. Hsu took his guest into an inner apartment, and then attempted to de- stroy him with a bomb. The bomb failed to explode, and Hsu and his chief accomplice then drew revolvers, with which they fired repeatedly at the governor, until he fell, mortally wounded. In the ensuing confusion Hsu escaped to the arsenal at Anking, only to find that the weapons stored there were obsolete and useless. He perceived that all was lost and fled to the house of friend, where he was arrested.
 Hsu was sentenced to death and de- capitated, though some of the officials wished to infict more barbarous pun ishment upon him. His heart was offered as sacrifice to the spirit of the official he had killed, and his liver was eaten by the soldiers, who ex- pected in this way to receive portion of that courage which had character 1 ized the assassins deeds.

DeReus, the Neither lands minister, from Venezuela. M. De- lteus is waiting the arrival of a Dutch warsnip at Porto Cabello.

Balloons for ForecastIng.


 From the Chicago Tribune.
 The weather man as a balloOnist promises to benefit incidentally his fellows. The main reason for the meteorologist's inability to talk def1n- itely beyond the "A hours limit and the main reason for his failures as a prophet are traced to the fact that the wind is the chief factor in weather, that it goes at different speeds and in contrary directions at different alti- tudes, and that if it is blowing in the form of an exceptionally deep stratum or volume from the direction of large body of water it will doubtless be laden with moisture, which eventually will descend in the form of rain unless the course is changed.
 If these conditions are not known at a height of three or four miles terra firma observations are often mlslead- ing. Capt. A. Hildebrandt and the in ternational commission for scientific aeronautics nave followed the example set in 17S3 by Montgolfier to use the balloon for weather forecasting.
 At more than 30 points in widely separated parts of the globe balloons and kites equipped with self-recordins instruments are sent up. some are captive, some are free to drift whither' soever the wind lists. Captive weather balloons are simple to manage. But the eyer-increasing weight of the cord puts a limit to the height whlch they can reach. The free balloons, which sail off at the pleasure or the wlnd, at first need great care. because from the moment they are liberated the ob' seryations depend on automatic ar rangements. which readily are put out of gear.

They Looked Like 1t.
rom Everybody's Magazine.

From Everybody's Magazine.
 Madame Kasebier, the famous New York photographer, is very fond of In dians. When Buffalo Bilrs Wild West Show was playing an engagement in the city, she gave a reception to the Indians inviting hundred or more of her friends to meet them.
 The Indians made a gorgeous sight in their native costumes. Their feathered head-dresses were particularly large and splendid. One little white girl who had been brought by her mother, and who had never seen an Indian before gazed with open-mouthed astonishment at these strange feathered creatures. Finally she turned to her mother and said, Mama do Indians lay eggs?''
