the tariff bill till next December, as he believed that it would do more harm than the war did. Mr. Quay said he would not work extra hours in order to pass a bill that would be the ruin of Pennsylvania. Both these Senators must be credited with too much ability to permit them to believe the extreme things they said about the bill. But the whole tendency of their remarks was to disclose an inclination to obstruct the passage of the bill, and to keep the business element in suspense. They are satisfied that business depression will
help their party.
Ttie menace to the country from this conspiracy arises Irom the fact that there are democrats in it. Some of these democrats are probably willing to allow the McKinley bill to remain in force. It does not seem to have occurred to these senators that a new revenue bill is absolutely necessary, even from the standpoint of protection, to which they seem to have become converts. The McKin-

The republicans can contemplate fids deficit with equanimity, since their opponents, having a numerical majority in both houses, are responsible for legislation. But tile democrats cannot permit the present situation to continue without confessing their inability to enact the necessary legislation to carry on the government. The democrats who aid and abet the republicans in this conspiracy of obstruction can never in tho future enjoy the respect of the masses of the party. Louis-

The Peculiar Method* ICtnplojed bj th« Eftqulmaux In Preparing Them. To the Esquimau woman, says Dr. Nansen, the month is like a third hand, especially in the preparation of skins, which is a very considerable part of her work. As a consequence the front teeth of the older women are often worn away to the merest stumps. The Esquimau method of preparing bird skins Is extremely peculiar and therefore interesting, and is thus described: The first step is carefully to dry the feathers; then the skins ure turned inside out, and the layer of fat is scraped away as thoroughly as possible with a mussel shell or a spoon, and is eaten, being esteemed a great delicacy. Then the skins are hung up under the roof to dry. After a few days the last remnants of fat are removed from them by means of chewing; then they are dried again, washed in warm water with soda and soap three times over, then rinsed out in very cold water, pressed, and hung up for the final drying. If the feathers are to be removed so that only the down is left, as, for example, in the case of the cider duck, they are plucked out when the skin is half-dry. Then it is thoroughly dried and cut up, and so is ready for
use.
The chewing is a very remarkable process. The operator takes the dry skin, almost dripping with fat and chews away at one spot till all the fat is sucked out and the skin is soft and white; then the chewing area is slowly widened, the skin gradually retreating farther and farther into the mouth, often until it disappears entirely, to be spat out again at last with every particle of fat chewed away. This industry is for the most part carried on by the women and children, and is very highly relished by reason of the quantity of fat it enables them to absorb. In times of scarcity, the men are often glad enough to be allowed to do their share. It is a strange scene that is presented when one enters a house and finds the whole population thus engaged in chewing, each with a skin in his mouth. The peculiar excellence of the Greenland bird-skin is due to this process.

Every treatise upon loons dwells ailmiringly upon their wonderful powers of self-protection, says a writer in the Boston Transcript. There is no denying that all loons ever hatched up to date have been“artful dodgers" in superlative degree. The question is often raised whether they are quick enough to dodge a bullet. I once had a guide who drew a distinction quite too finu, as I thought. He claimed that a loon could see the flash of a percussion cap at the breech of a muzzle-loading piece, and could dodge, but admitted that with the rifle loaded like all modern ones, at the breech, no loon could escape a shot rightly aimed. For my part, 1 do not believe the interval of time between the fire at, the two ends of the barrel to be measurable by eyes of birds or men. or anything short of a chronograph. As to the question, however, it is possible to reason with tolerable confidence. We know the speed of a rifle bullet. Call it fourteen hundred feet a second. Imagine your loon at that distance, or nearer. Then reflect how slowly a bird's head must move to use vip more than a second in dropping a few inches under water. Gravity alone would carry it further than that. It is easy to believe that if the wary bird hap-

York .tliin Who *ieUs llie Temperature by Tttfttlug; the Atiungplior*. f There is a man in New York who is an expert weutiier sain pier, and imn*. as the tea export tastes his brands to appraise them, so this man tastes tho weather. He will at any time of tho day. or at any place, so long as it is in the open air, taste the atmosphere and tell you what the temperature is Ho never gets more than two degrees away and seldom more than one. Tho other day. says the Tribune, a friend played a joke on him by using a thermometer which was not in working order. The sampler, after tasting tho weather, said that it was thirty-ono degri'es above zero. The thermometer said it was thirty-seven, but. the otpert would not be convinced that he' could be wrong. He insisted that they walk along until they found another thermometer. They found it and it registered thirty-one degrees. | "When the leaves turn early,” says a Michigan man, “we have a hard winter. When they turn late we have an open winter. One would suppose that the time at which winter set in would have everything to do with the turning of the leaves, and it is known that some open winters set in early and some cold ones set in late. But 1 have noticed that the time of cold weather beginning does not murk the turning of the leaves. The present winter set in early in Michigan. There was unusually cold weather in October, but the leaves did not turn until a month later than the average time. All lumbermen arranged for an open winter oi. that account, aud they have not been mistaken. In laet. 1 have never
