IRANCo-AMLRlCAN TARIFF.
Work of Commission Proceeding Ran
 idly--I'robing Complaints.

Paris, July 2S,-The work of the joint Franco-American tariff commis- sion is proceeding rapidly, and trl- weekly sessions are being held. The primary object of the commission Is to investigate :he complaints of French and American exporters with the view to suppress veXatlous administrative regulations by means of mutual con- sessions At the same time the en- tire subject of the tariff relations be- tween the two countries will be exam ined.
 The experience of Consul General Mason with the American commission that visited Berlin is proving extreme ly valuable to the present commission. As the administrative and other con sessions that may be granted without legislation arc limited by each ooun- try, the Americans began by submit ting a list of definite inquiries to as- certain how far the French govern ment is able to go in the matter of the modification of tho beef and other regulations. In reply the French commissioners addressed similar set of questions to tho Americans With the situation thus clarified the Amer jeans to-day formally submitted a list of demands numbering ten. This doubtless will elicit counter proposi- tions upon which the actual negotla- tlons will begin.
 James E. Reynolds assistant secre- tary of the treasury, member of the commission, is obtaining much in- formation regarding the working of the French tariff regulations, espe- cially in the matter of rebates, which will be valuable later on to the Wash ington government

IN HUMAN SPECIES.
Source Of Everything That Is Beautiful
and interesting.

Each human being has something
distinguishing, in form, proportions,
countenance, gesture, voice-in feel
ings. thought, and temper, in mental
as we'll as corporeal physiognomy.
This variety is the source OF every
thing beautiful and interesting In the
external world-the foundation of the
whole moral fabric Of the universe.
Certain external circumstances, as
food, climate, mode of life. have the
power of modifying the animal organi-
cation, so as to make 1t deviate from
that of the parent. But this effect
terminates in the individual. Thus, a
fair Englishman, If exposed to the sun,
becomes dark and swarthy in Bengal;
but his offspring, If from an English
woman, are born just as fair as he
himself was originally; and the chill
dren, after any number of generations
that we have yet observed, are still
born equally fair, provided there has
been no intermixture of dark blood.

R.:sUkEp THE GREAT WRITER.
American Was Not Awed by orouchy
Poet Laureate.

A writer in Harper's Weekly brings
to light an interesting anecdote OF
Tennyson which well illustrates the
singular habits of the great laureate
In his intercourse with his friends.
The poet was not only brusque and
rough, but he was domineering and
exacting, and most other men were
afraid of him. But an American
schoolmaster who for many years
maintained great intimacy with him
had no fear in his heart. and sat and
smoked on an equality with the sover.
eign singer by Farringford fireside.
."One evening"" says the writer.
when the two were thus together,
Tennyson said that he would depart
from his custom and narrate a per-
solal experiences; but he had suffered
a good deal from repetitions OF his
tales by those to whom he had told
them, and he would be obliged to ask
his friend never to repeat what he
was about to hear. The American
smoked on for few seconds while
Tcrnyson waited for the promise. and
then he said: My lord, in my coun.
try gentleman would never make
that request of another gentleman
'H-h.m!' said the poet, and looked
out of eyes that wondered II the
quiet smoker opposite knew how much
he'd said. Then he told the story.

Mans Prejudice for Black Clothes.

In opening an artistic dress exhibi.
ton Mr.. Louis n. Parker, master Of
the recent Warwick pageant, said
there could be no doubt that the
clothes r'er wore were foolish, says
the Pail : u Gazette. He claimed
that as woman could array herself in
sympathetic colors and flowing folds,
the time had arrived when man should
be placed on equality with her, instead
of the having to array himself in black
for dinner, the theater, funerals and
weddings. He believed and hoped that
his pageants would do something to
sweep away the prejudice for black,
for 1t was horrid custom on the part
OF civilization.

Wellsboro, Pa. April 3.-If addi-
tional argument were needed to show
the advisability of the very effective
Sheiff's fee bill now in force in this
t e, Tioga has supplied it. In 19
o., it cost the county $l,3l2 to col.
lect taxes amounting to S94,47.
During that year, lands returned
land on which no taxes had been
paid, the taxes running from "a cents
a lot to $50. .30-the maximum, foot
ing up S9i.47. Under the law it
was imperative to sell these lands for
taxes, and the fees for selling were
AS follows: Sheriff, $1,10G37; pro-
thonotary, Sl74.15; attorneys fees
and commissions, $l32.
1t is very evident that if all the
departments of the county were run
on such basis, it would soon be
bankrupt. Under the law the COM
missioners are powerless to prevent
this waste.
