It is cot entirely the casa with copper, tec&UEe this gigantic trust originates in a foreign country, and for the time being grasps the product of the worM, bnt it is tine iu this way, that tbe tar: IT has built np the copper monopoly ia this country, and pot its managers ia a position to turn oer to the French riu practically the entire output of the I'-iited 8;ates for three years. S3, though frea copper wciild not now break the bn ls of the trust, the tariff has made the trnst possible. Hool Senae from Nebraska. Congressman McSaane, of Nebraska, wonders uny the farmers do not rebel under the woikingof the tariff. He says: "Tbe farmers are the real pauper laborers of this country. They work longer hoars, endure more discomforts, and get less mosey than any other class. This is why 1 want Mills' tariff bill to pass. The best feature of it ia the putting of wool on the free list That suits the people in my dis trict, i know, for I nave just been among them. Toe yalue of the entire wool la terest Isn't oyer $30.000,000. "Why should that be protected when right by its Mde is the catt'e product worth $1,400,000,000?

"I do not like Mr. Randall's message be cause the tariff is left on wool, and then I djn't believe in free whisky and tobacco." Tariff-Made Castes. ITha Opera Court. Favoring the few at the expense of the many, a protective tariff will never be in harmony with the free institutions of this country, it opposes the cardinal principle ef our American freedom, laid down in the Declaration of Independence, namely, the principle of equal rights lor all in ail matters of public con cern, that is, matters affected or to be arreted by law. A protective tanfi, pro dncing aL'luence among the manufacturers and pauperism among their workingmen, separates, by law, tbe people of this coun try into rich and poor, capitalists and laborer?, as claisc?, and thai practically creates a class distinction. Under its op eration, the social life and the social edu cation of this country will never be what txey should te, George Waabioaton and the TariST.

Lt'biladelphia Record.l The trusts, arrangements, pools, corabines and monopolies of every sort, big ana little, are against the Mills tariff bill. They are also against the people of the United States. It is high time that the people of the United States who elect the cod grew es should make a note of the poaition of aCairs and see that their representatives do their duty. The farmers, miners, weavers, blacksmiths, carpenters, shoemakers and all the hosts of labor can sot spend the time or money to sit in the loby at Washington and look after their interests; but they can, one and all. write to the man that represents them. Now ia the time to 60 it. Th3 mails should go loaded with the demands of suffering coaatltoents. Aa Absurd Argument. New York Times. The protectionists claim, some of them tjneerely enough, that it the particular manufacturers favored by the tariff are protected from foreign competition they can get higher price for their goods, make more profit, can and will employ more labor axd pay higher wagea. and thus the money accumulated through the tariff will te distributed asd the whole country will beneCt by it. That ia an absurd argument when it ia analjzed, since the very rnen who are to be made prosperous by selling to the highly-paid workmen of the protect ed manufacturers are to furnish the money lor their own prosperity. No farmer ever yet lifted himself into wealth by his own fcect straps in this fashion, or eyer will. A Wormy Chestnut.

SNOW GIRT NEW YORK.

'ew York Herald, March 13 A great white hurricane roared all day through New York yesterday and turned the comfortable sity into a wild and bewildering waste of snow and ice. Imagination cannot picture the extraordinary scenes that have taken place in the metropolis during the last twenty-four hours to one who has not looked at them. No one living can remember such a storm in the city. All business was abandoned, and the enow drifted in mountains against miles and miles of closed business houses. The elevated railways ceased running, and all the horse car lines were completely blocked up. Telegraph wires were furiously torn from their fastenings ar.d whirled up and down the roadways. Euge trees in Twenty-third and other streets were pulled np out of tbe ground and thrown in ail directions by the mishty wind which increased in strength every moment. Men and women were thrown about hie strews, and many had to be du oat of tbe vast drifts. Wall st. looked like an icy gulch in Montana, and thirty lexely brokers thivered in the empty stock exchange. All the big centers of ccmmeice were deberted. Ferry boats were blown helplessly up and down the North and East rivers in the thrkking tempest, and no vebsel dared to enter the storm smitten harbor. Trains on all the railways were snowed in. The telrgraph tympanies refused to take meo3agts. A hcrror cf darknees deepened over the crowded city, a&d the ttrror-6iricken population cowered at the awful sound which came fxoni the throat of the whirlwind. It started at about midnight. A gentle rain bad ben pltthirg on the pavements for 8v-ral noun Gradually it turned into a wet mow nd the gutters ran slaso. The wir.d be&an to rise and the tberoioaieter fe'.l lapid'y. Sudd uly the wnole city seemed to trtiab'.e a?thesiorci swept down upon it vsi'h a gra'idtur and power that are indescribable. Downcaaie the snow in twisted ;orren :s till the sidewalks were burud oiider the drif's. Signboards were tern fiom the fronts of buildings, roofs we' stripped, wfodows blown out, wagons overt nrmd and s re . cars halted. Wtn day biete tne city pteBflt. ted an amsz nr aptearf.rre. Through tii wild clouds of snow tt.at wer d'iea alons the streets conld be seen h-uced wgons pivea up by taeir drivers. At every turn could besten theee deserted vehicle. Their owners had fled for their livts, apparently regardless of what becme of the property. Butc-.-ers' wk"es piled bigb vitij tafat, rr ilk truj'ns crowded with cans, grocers' wagons, coal carts, street cars a?ere sevtered in the mountains of "now In all directions Tiere were thoufaiids upon thousands of these abandoned w a eon a and crts, some overturned, tcme lying acrors the street, s me h&.'f buried in the drif'u. Here and ters they formed euormous barrctiJea, wut h caught the snow end rolled it up in soli J barriers. Long before dajlixht the horsa cir lines gave up all attempts to carry pa-wnge-s. The multitudes trudged turor.eh tbe storm to the elevaed railroads, end crowded every train. Even these tiains were few and far between. The snow and wind nude it almcst impossible to wrk the switches, and the brakes were rendered useless. Finally the whole elevated rail-vay svstem came to a dead standstill. Then ensued scenes of excitement and suffering. There was a solid blockade of trains on the Sixth ave. road from Fourth st. to Twentye'ghth sr. The passengers were half frozen. They conld cot reach the stations except by walking alorg the narrow edge of the tracks, which was friehtfully dangerous in such a fcieh wind. Women cried and men swore. Many cf the mn took oil thsir overcoats to shelter the half perished Worten. When this condition of things had existed fcr an hour or so a young man, who stood on a platform of one of the blockaded cars, Icoktd down into the snow-surging ateDue at Tueoty-secotd st, He saw a big colored man wrestling with the wicd. "Sa-a-a a aay !" he shrieked. The colored man looked no. "If yen get a ladder and let me get down into the street I'll give you a dollar." There was a look of Indecision on the dutky face. Here Broker Mason of the Consolidated Exchange shouldered his way to the door of tbe car. "If you get a ladder within live minutes I'll give you IV he shouted. "A wright, boss!" arswered the man in the street. A few minutes later he cime down Sixth ave. with two companions lugging a lorg ladder. The ladder was set apainst the iron railway structure, but it would not reach tbe tops of the pillars. Two cry goods boxes were put under the lower end snd the top rung just touched the upper side of the truss work. The colored can in charge of the ladder yelled out that he would allow passengers to climb down at the rate of 23 centa each. This offer was eagerly accepted. Men, women and boys struggled down to the sidewalk. Train after train waa emptied in this way. The passengers would get out of one train and cling to the greasy locomotive wheels as they crept to the next train. S3 hundreds of people were rescued. The colored man with the ladder made over $100 in an hour. When the news of thisspieed all the colored men in the neighborhood conld be seen hurryin to Sixth ave. with ladders, unttl there was one to every half block from Twenty-eighth st. to the Fourth et. corner. One train at Ninth st and Sixth ave. was blockaded for fcur hours, and the frantic passengers in vain tried to reach the street, Tne cars rocked in the storm until the unfortunate prisoners expected to be dashed upon the pavement below. Soue of the men tried to climb down the trestiework or creep along to tbe next station, bnt the almost inconceivable fierceness of the wind coupled with the blinding snow and hail drove them back shivering and frightened. Euddenly thirteen policemen appeared on Sixth ave. Tbey carried a ladder which had been hastily constructed at a neighboring carpenter shop. A terrific cheer went up from the host on the cars above as their rescuer came in sight. In a few minutes all the passengers were safe in the street. Another train load of passengers was saved by firemen. But do one but a rich man conld get down town unless he walked, and it took strength and courage and endurance to travel in the streets. In many places the snow was drifted seven and eight feet high acrosthe roadways, and men who tried to force their way through had to be pulled oat by rescuing parties. No cabman would take a passenger to the lower part of the city for less than $10. Aa the day wore on the cabmen began to forsake their vehicles. Within a few hoars Ihey had gathered a week's wages. They flocked to the saloons. Everywhere could be seen horaeatied to latnp-posta, telegraph poles and hydrants, shivering end moaning as the blizurd whipped their frozsn bodies mercilessly. This was one of the ighti that expressed the extraordinary condition of the city. From Harlem to the
Fattery dumb brutes were left to tbe mercv of the elements while their cowardly drivers caroused in the saloons. 0 terrible did the storm become that men lost their way in the etreeu. Tas heaecs darkened, snd a great roariig sound came ftom the thundering clouds. It seemed as if a million devils wer loose in the air. Sign boards were stripped from the fronts of stores and hurled throa;h the enow cloudx Hata were picked u 0 and carried cut of eight As tne afternoon wore an ay men aod women wra blown hat on the ground or packed up in the air and thrown against baildingn. Haid reds of pedretrians were cut and bmt3d. May were run over. The very mail wgons had to be abandoned, in epito of the deprate strangles of th horses. They were left in ail sections of the city. Ua E ghth ave. an empty hearse was deserted by its driver. All funerals were postponed fir the day. Each hour tbe fury of the hurricane" increased. It began to resemble the worst kind cf a Dakota bl'zzird. The wind blew at the rate of C-l miles an hour, and at 3 o'clock in the afternoon the mercury stood only 11 degrees above zero. Ho w the raging winds howled and roared, till one's hair stood on end! Frightful stories of disaster were shouted through the streets men frozen to death in Broadway; a crowded train blown from the Sixth ave. elevated railway; another train collided on the Third ave. railway, killing the engineer and wounding passengers. The last proved to be true. So itidiscribably terrible was the storm th&t the very sparrows appealed to haensn
btings for shelter. Many birds tlew into the uL:ey house, liouuian nous and othsr hotels. They were very tame, and ate food from the hands nf tne gaetCi One epaxrow nut on tne Giliey housa btr for ten rnirutes.

Tee etrtet was a series of hills and valleys and ravines. Narrow paths were worn by tne ifft of thouäands who walked in In dan hie. This curious manner of treaJiag in each otber'a footrtep9, like aioux warriors, gava the travelers a quaint appearante. Tbe costumes in which tne pe J8triars were clad were bewildering. Fat men tir.d piects of rope around the lower ends cf their trosers to keep the snow from reaching their an kes as they waded thiough the drifts. Thin mtn wore their BtockintB ever their shoes. Every maa whotwned a shooting jicket or a pair of leggina bloisorred out in mouutainoer stjie.

Still there was a marvelous exuibi tion of good nature. The more the snow piled up ard the great wind blew the more nr. J verbal as the euirit of neighborhoEs. Every one seeded privileged to talk to eerjbody else. When a man had anything to say be had to ehr.nt in ox der to mate himself heard. The convereation would be at OEce taken cp by every one in the streets. Men whoe bands and feet were tingling and whose faces were blue with cold waded to tneir armpits in the snow end laughed. When a girl was stuck in a drift or blown down there was always a hero ready to pick her up and help her along. No one resented a slap on the shoulder or a vigorous shout 01 salutation At noon all the great stores that had opened saw the uselessness of attempting to carry on bunness and gave their em ployes a half holiday. Then came an in epiricg sight, as thousands of clerks and shop girls fought their way home through the bitter wina and snow, falling down. runnirts agaicst each other, and sometimes b"rg blown Jigbt across the street Some of the great dry goods houses had arranged for balmy southern breezes and soft, yellow sucshice. Macy it Co. were to have had their spring opening. A reporter called and found mountains of snow piled up against tne doors. Dennins &; Co. had also arranged for a "spring" opening. Altman's store was opened with great difh culty, and a woman ventured through the storm to buy two spools of thread. The telegraph messenger boys suffered frightfully. Several of them were so badly rrozen il&i tney were taten to hospitals. lhis was about the only means of comma nication In the city. All the telegraph systems were broken down. Every dispatch cllered to the Western Union company by tne Jjmui waa returned. Ae can t send a word '." was the invariable answer. The only telegraphed message which reached the Jltmhl daring the afternoon was a brief one from Little Fails. N. Y. The police were unable to enforce the laws relating to hack fare?. Drivers charged $10 for each passenger in the morning, bat later cn they increased the price. Brokers who had to go down town in order to meet their contracts were compelled to Day enormous sums for transportation. It U almost impossible to indicate the hauteur of the average cabman. He frowned on ordinary mortals. Nßver since New York was a city have its Jehus reaped such a harvest So unreasonable were tbe drivers that one broker who had a $30,000 transaction to complete, and was in danger of losing a fortune by delay, became wild with anxiety. T must get down," he pleaded. I "Ah! very loikely," said the driver, sticking his tongue in his cheek and breaking a few icicles from his beard. "What will sou take for your whole establishment?" "It arn't moine." "I'll buy the horse and cab and I'll buy you, tco, if you're for Bale. Come, what's your price?" "The 'orse arn't mo?n. I tell ye." "Your rig is worth $150. Come, I'll give yon $0)0." "No. but oi'll take ye down fur $50." The broker paid It. Everybody had to pay in advance. Killed la a Snow Plow Wreck. Whiti Plains, N. Y., March 10.

Till the sun that shines above us 8hinea no more oa 70a and me, Till this heart Is stilled forever. You will find me true to thee. O'er Ufa earth may shadows hover, Haking day an endless night, Flanetsall shall cease their motion, Darkness reign instead of light, E'er my love for thee shall warer Or my pledges broken be; Thia whole world may be In chaos, Still you'll find me true to thee. Sad was I when first I met thee. Sorrow, then, waa ia my heart, And you made me very happy When you bade it all depart. Emile apon me, and forever Diive those pearly tears away: Let no coldness e'er estrange us Bnt the cold aod silent clay. Doubting shadows, let them never Find a place within your breast; Trust me all, I'll not deceive thee. Then your soul will be at rest. And thy rest can ne'er be broken While you fondly clirg to me; Trusted friends may all forsake you, Still, you'll Cud me true to thee. ICop.TLANO Ball. Inplanapolis, Ind., March, iss.
PASTOR AND PEOPLE, Professor Swing defines christian science as not christian and not science. During the past year the missions of the reformed church have been very successful. A movement is on foot in the methodiat episcopal church to make Easter day the great missionary day of the church. The baptist churches of California are beginning to grow in numbers and strength largely through the immigration of New Ecglanders. Thirteen Boston churches, six of which are congregational, two universalist, two baptist, one unitarian, one preabyteriau and one episcopalian, are now looking for pastors. Mr. 8. E, Fraz'.er of Youngstown, O., who was for some years secretary of the American legation at the Japanese court, has been chosen pastor of a presbyterian church at Pittsburg. The Ilev. Edward Everett Hale said in a recent letter: "It is quite clear to me that there is less drunkenness, more disoosition to purity, a higher tone of public sentiment about crime thaa there waa ten years ago," The colored baptist of Tenneesee have adopted the following resolution: 'Resolved, That no minister be allowed 10 preach the gospel who fought prohibition during the late canvas. Tiiey will not be recognized hereafter by this convention.". April 10 will be observed by the catholic total abstinence societies of America with appropriite services, it being the fiftieth anniversary of Father Matthew's signing the pledge. It will be remembered that over one million ma signed the pledge through the intlaence of thia pioneer total abstainer. Ibe growth of the Roman catholic church in England .has been vrv great daring the last few years. In 1S50 there were ü bishops, 820 priests, 17 religious houses and 507 churches. Now there are 17 bishops, 2,314 priests, 5S7 religious honsea and 1.Ü04 churches. The increase in Scotland has been qilte as marked. RuFsia, England ana Sweden are, it seems, the oniy thiee coutries in the world where a decrease in the drinking habits of the people is noted. In Russia the decline has been one-half, in Sweden one-third, and in England one-eighth. All other countries ironi which returns are given, inclading Central Africa, South America, and even China, show a largely augmented bill. Nothing could be more appropriate than that the white-ribbon women of this land should adopt Miss Willard'8 suggestion and purchase John G. Whittier's old home at. Haverhill. He is pre-eminently the poet of temperance and women, and richly merits a tribute at their hands. Contributions for this purpose will be received and publicly acknowledged by Miss Willard. The famous Russian litterateur, Count Leo Tolstoi, hs3 organized and placed himself at the heni cf a temperance association at Mockar, called the "Society of tbe Temperate." The members are pledged not to drink intoxicating liquors of any sort, nor to sell them or offer theru to anybody, but to labor to convince others, an I especially children, of the dangers of intemperance. The Rev. Dr. W. J. R. Taylor of Newark, N. J., is the chairman of the cornrnitt apDointed by the general synod of tbe reformed church to confer with a similar committee from the German refomed church as to the feasibility of an organic union between the two denominations. Iu T,'ie Christian at U'oct he says that the general movement toward unity ia one of the most hopeful signs of the times. The Rey.Prescott Evarts, a eon of Senator Evarts, is preaching on Sunday afternoons during Lent in the caurci of the holy communion at W. Twentieth st. and Sixteenth ave., New York, of which he is the assistant minister, a special asrits of sermons, on the old, testament characters, which is attractiug favorable attention. His sermons are praised for brevity, Btrength, and his delivery is clear, forcible and graceful. Mrs. Elizabeth Weaver Hendrickson of Corinth, 111., ia the oldest metbodUt in America, being 102 years of age. Sa waa the only daughter of Victor Weaver, so well known in Tennessee and Kentucky as "Shouting Victor Weaver." Grandma Hencrickscn has been a devoted member of the methodist church for ninety years. She still walks about very freely and her memory is good, bat her hearing and eyesight are beginning to fail. We shall never know, at least in this life, how muco, under God, we are indebted for our blessings to the prayers of other people. If no one has ever prayed for most of ns, except ourselves, our lives would have been barren of many a rich blessing which has come unto them. This may seem "too religious" for some persons, but this is because they have not taken the pains to look into such matters, and more still, bectuse. perhaps, they have not availed themselves of the sacred nrivilegeof praying for others. t Louis 4wric7t Laptht. A pastor who is unable to organize his church to do its own work, eucu as collecting and disbursing all its funds, attending to all the missions and charities of the church, its discipline, its Sunday-school work, etc, may have some reason to doubt his fitness for that church Either tbe church has the wrong pastor or the pastor the wrong church. The church of the future is to be an organized, working body. The pastor of the future is one who can and will thus organize his church. Every church member must da his work. So long as there is an idle eoul just to that extent is the church not organized. Central liiptut. During this year the vote will be taken in the Montefiore home as to admitting o'herthan Hebrew patients, as to making the Institution sectarian Dr otherwise. We would be delighted to find Jew and Christian loyally side by side in all poo J causes, juBt aa they have from the first harmonized in the hospital collection, and in the smitary aid society.

Hocus Baking; 1'owder Testa, Rather iDgenioua but not less fr&inlent are the pretended tests of baking povv Jer being made in many of our kitchens by agents who are trying to further the sale of a Chicago article. These so-called tes:s consist in mixing separately, with water, a sample cf the baking powder found in the house and of that carried by the agent. From that in the house, if a para article, the bubbles of gas will rise and burst oa top lik6 these from a glass of c'umpa'gn. The Chicago bakirg powper which they carry, when mixed with water, will show an extra froth upon the top of the mixtare which is claimed as evidence of superiority. On the contrary, however, it is not only the exhibition of a trick, but is absolute proof that the bakirg powder which so acta is adulterated. The chemists have ascertained that the adulterant used is a chemical added for the exprea? purpose of producing this fiction and deceiving house keepers us to the true value of the b iking powder. This is not only a dishonest trick, bat a dirty one, for the chemical 13 the produce of the filthy refuse of th8 slaughter house, and if th;s bakinsj powder is used in the preparation cf food passes into the biscuit or cake without chang. Of course, any statements mada in th reference to ether baking powders, by parties caught in practicing such tricka as thse for the purpose of deceiving the pnaiic, will be entitled to no credit. It is probably wisest in the interest of our families, and to prevent our food from being contaminated by traups of this kind, to turn all perrons who wish cr attempt to tamper with it uucrruonion&ly from the door, and to usa those articles only which experience has proved satisfactory, or the official tests hare established as pure and wholesome.

TEA AND COFFEE.
Some Startling; Statements for the Dev. tees I These Beverages. I Post-Dispatch. I Alfred F. Harbrirfge. a large tea and caf'ee deslti of New York, arrived in the city yesterday and is at the Southern. To a i'trt Jsl'jmti-k reporter Mr. Harbridee said: "We, who understand the collie business, are often abused at the falsa impressions under which the public labor in regard to that berry. There is always a great demand for Mocha, which is the highest priced, but which any large grocery store supplies in such quantities as may be required. I wonder if those who bosst that they drink only Mocha are aware of the fact that they never in their lives drank a drop of Mocha. In fact it may be said that, except a few royal personages, no European nor American, who has not visited Turkey, Persia or Arabia, has ever tasted this coCee. I know of no natural product which is so carefully guarded, or which is so exclusively used at home. The Arab chiefs of the coffee-growing districts get the btst berries, which are carefully chasn; the richer men buy the second choice, while a third qualify la used by tbe common people. This uses up about half the animal crop. The gi eater part of what is left is sent 0 Persia, while the Bmall residae goes to i eia Miner, a few broken and green berriea fird:Eg their way to Constantinople, west cf which city no: a pound can be bought anywhere. On Srveial occasions Aratian and Periir-n potentates have set presents cf thisceCee to European monarch, but Vanderbilt himseii culi not buy a pound of it west of the Mediterranean. The coffee sold all over Europa and America as Mocha exceeds a hundredfold in amount the entire Arabian crop, asd consists piircipally of choice Java berriee, although in this country the best varieties of South American coffee often masquerade under the name of Mocha. "As Tt'iB tea," said Mr. Harbridge, "the same state cf affairs exists, although there is no particular growth that is acknowledged as far superior to all others as in the case ot coffee. The best of tbe Chinese tea is used by the Mandarins, who pay what is equivalent to $10 a pound, in a country where everything is cheap. After all these have been eupplied, the best cf the crop is sent westward, the tea caravans extending in an almost unbroken line from China to Russia. Russia gets otly the fourth or fifth quality, but the best tea cf that country is far superior to atjtLing seen in Western Europe or America. The Chicese in this country drink better tea than 8Dy Americans, as the six coni- , paries supply them with a very fair qual ity crstmg fiom $ to $10 a pound.
