S WOIIX FOU.M15Y. of the linn of Formby & Walton, was walk ing down Piccadilly one morning on Iiis way to see a colleague in C hanccry Lane. lie was a decidedly strikinglooking man, not at all like the usual type of a respectable family solicitor. lie was considerably above the average height, anil very dark. His forehead and nose were quite of the statuesque order; the rest of his face was hidden by busby black beard. He was about forty years of age and unmarried. This morning, the trnule seemed jrreater than usual, nnd blocks occurred every two or three minutes. During one of tbese blocks John Formby noticed n private brougham which drew up by the pavement close to where lie was standing. It had scarcely stopped, when the window was opened quickly and a young girl leaned out and thrust a letter into Formby's hand, exclaiming ns she did o: "For Cod's sake post this!" John Formby took it, and held it downwardswithout looking at the address. A few strides brought him to a pillar box, and he dropped the letter in, just us a burly, coarse-looking young man hurried up as though to intercept him. This individual looked hard at Formby, who surveyed him coolly from bead to foot, and then, with a muttered execration. Went back and jumped into the brougham which presently moved oft. Prompted by an inlluence he did not stop to analyze, Formby sprang into a hansom, and with a brief direction to the driver to follow tho brougham, he was whirled after them down the Ihiymarket, and along the Strand and Fleet street into the heart of the city. On and on they drove; until it began to occur to Formby that a hansom was rather an unusual object in this neighborhood, and that he was beginning to be observed by the passers-by. Just ns he realized this, the cabman attracted his attention atid remarked: "I don't know if you've noticed it, sir, but the party in front has looked hack at its twice. John had not noticed it. He stopped the cab at once, ami took a hasty irlnnce round. A baker's covered cart had stopped a few yards ahead of them.

"Yes," replied fcpeutuhlo parly. the man, "a very re1 leave bread there every evening." "Will you try and Und out for me who that young lady lis, and where she comes from'.'" pursued John eagerly. "Well, I'll try, sir, but how am I to let you know'.'" "Whore is your shop?" "Oh! a long way buck." "1 will ho there at eleven o'clock" tomorrow morning. Can you drive mu back there now?" The man assented, and they returned by tho way they had come, and dually stopped before a small baker's shop, John gave the man a sovereign, much to his iiinai'inont, and walked otf, hoping to Und a cab a little further on. lie was very late for his appointment, a eircumsta nee which greatly surprised Iiis friend, who had never known John Formby unpunetunl before. At about four o'clock he got back to his olllce, where he found a letter awaiting him. the contents of which were as follows: Masx'ottb Hat. i. June 13. Oi:.vn.K.MKN-My father died last nluht. Will you come down at once!1 My stepbrother in hero ami 1 eausln much annoyance. Yours faithfully. Maiiion Hauuinotos. Messrs. Formby ."c Walton. John Formby laid the letter down, and reflected for a moment, Maj. Harrington had been a client of his for about four years. He was n widower with two children, one a son by his llrst wife, the other a daughter by his second wife. A short time ago his son had oüVmlcd him, and lie came up to London and made a most extraordinary will, in which he left everything to his daughter, with the proviso that she should allow her brother not less than three hundred a year. He informed his solicitor that he had already told Iiis sn thi.the intended doingthis. and that he need expect nothing more from him. John took up the letter and read it through onco more. Then he glanced at the envelope and saw to his surprise that it had been posted in London that day. although the letter was dated the day before. lie went into Iiis partner's room and consulted him. "I should go down nt once." advised Mr. Walton, after perusing the letter. "You can just catch a train which will land you there in a couple of hours." Accordingly. John set out, and reached his destination about half-past eight. He asked for .Miss Harrington, and was informell that she had gone away that morning. "Hut her father is just dead!" ex claimed John, in surprise. Yes, sir," returned the maid, tear fully, "he is lying dead upstairs now; and oh, sir, I'm sure Miss Marion would never have gone away like this of Iter own accord " "Just tell me all you know about it," said John. "I am the Into Maj. Harrington's solicitor, Mr. John Formby." i'lius encouraged tho maid proceeded. llrielly, her story was as follows; Maj. Harrington had been taken very sud denly ill, and died in a few hours. His son was telegraphed for, but arrived too late to see him alive. He had a lontr interview with his sister, who came out of the room crying, and told her maid that her brother had been very violent, and that she was afraid to be left alone with him. The next morning, she ordered the carriage, saying she was going up to Loudon to see her solicitor and would return the same evening. "That was yesterday, sir," concluded the maid, "and she has not eume back, nor Mr. James llarring ton. cither." "Did he go with her?" "No sir. but we think he must have followed her." John was silent for a few minutes. Then a sudden inspiration flashed across him. "W hat was Mr. Harring ton like? ' he inquired. "Nave you a portrait of him, or of Miss Harring ton?" "Oh! ves, sir," answered the maid. "1 will get them for you." She went out of the room, and re turned a moment afterwards with two photographs in which John instantly recognized the ladv who had asked him to post the letter, and the man who was with her in the brougham. "It's all right." he said to the maid. "1 know where they are." lie hurried back to the railway sta tion, only to find that the last train had departed. He spent the night at the hotel close by. and started off by the llrst train the following morning, lie went straight to his office, and after taking counsel with his partner, they proceeded together to the 'baker's shop. Here, John found his friend of the day before, who informed him that he had found out all about the young lady. "The poor, young thing is out of her mind," he said, "and her brother has brought her up here to hide her from those who wish to put her away in an asylum. He brought her tip from the country the day before yesterday." John and his partner waited for no more, but proceeded to the house without delay. The door was opened by a woman who looked at them suspiciously and inquired their business. ' "We wish to see Miss Harrington, the young lady who is in your house now," said John, sternly. "There is no such person here," replied the woman. "You are telling me a lie," returned John. "Miss Harrington was brought here yesterday by her brother, who has tried to pass Iter off as a lunatic. Wu are her solicitors, Messrs. Formby and Walton." The woman hesitated. "Mv orders were to let no one se I her," she said doubtfully. "You will get vourstlf into serious trouble If you try to prevent our sec ing Miss Walteu. Harrington," observed Mr.

"The gentleman I out," said th woman, "and he loft tho poor young lady locked up in her room." The ue t instant John Formby strode past her mid went upstairs, the woman following and protesting strongly against this invasion. He opened the doors of two rooms easily, but the third one wast locked. The key, however, had not been removed, and John turned it, and then knoeked. "Come in," said a voice, and he entered. Marion Harrington was standing near the window. Siie glanced at John with a look of alarm, which quickly turned to one of half-puz.led recognition. "You are the gentleman who posted my letter, " she said. "Yes," answered John, "and, oddly enough, it was addressed to myself. If I had only looked at the envelope then I might have spared you this disagreeable experience. I am Mr. Formby. nnd my partner is waiting below, We have a cab. and, with your permission, will take you home at once and deal with your brother afterwards." On the wny back Marion related her adventures. It seemed that her stepbrother had tried to make her sign a deed of gift investing him with half her property. On her refusal to do this, until she had consulted her solicitor, lie became very violent, and gave utterance to various threats. She then wrote a letter to Messrs. Formby and Walton, but rellectei after she had done so that tinder the circumstances it would he better to go in person and see them. Accordingly she started, intending to get them to come back with her by

He took her to a hotel and announced that she was a lunatic, feigning great dis tress at her condition. The next morning he engaged a pri vate carriage and removed her. for tunately, she had the letter in her pockt, and when the block in l'iceadilly arrested the prqgressof the brougham, she noticed John, and a sudden im pulse prompted her to snatch the letter from her pocket and ask him to post it, the result of which was, as we have seen, her speedy deliverance. The heiress of Mascotte Hall made what her friends called a very bad match, for she married her solicitor, Mr. John Formby, about six months after the events just related. But as she described herself in a letter to a friend, written some years afterwards, as "the happiest woman that ever lived," we may assume that as fnr as she was concerned the union was a thoroughly satisfactory one. A Wonderful ltaby. The proud young mother had conn to pay her first visit, accompanied by the infant son and heir and his nurse. "I don't wish to appear in any way partial." said she, "but really for a child of sixteen months I consider Algernon a marvel of intelligence. He understands every word that is said, and joins in the conversation with a sagacity that almost alarms me at times. Speak to the lady, Algernon." "Hoo-boo," said Algernon. "Listen to that!" cried the delighted mother. "He means how do yon do? Isn't it wonderful!" "Now, Algernon, ask the lady to play for you (he adores the piano). Now. Algie. dear" (very coaxingly). "Hoo-boo!" said Algernon. "He means music by that; "Hooboo 'music.'" Isn't he too smart for anything? Now love, tell the lady mamma's name?" "Hoo-boo!" said Algernon. "That's right. 'Hoo-boo' 'Louise!' My name's Louise, you know: Oh, dear, I do hope he isn't too clever to live! Now, say by-by to the lady, precious." "Hoo-boo," said Algernon. "'Hoo-boo by-by.'

PROTECTION EftRORS.

r,tmitor; Sberiimii mill I'ryt. Ought to lie AhIiuiim'iI or Tlo'iiiNeltrt. In his sprech in the Kennte a few dpys ago, Senator hherman, spcakng in behalf of the political wool h'.owers of Ohio, Mdu that "many uiattges had been mails In Mictions of the tariff bill hulking ts th? protection of American industries, on.arkably so i in the cotton schedule. lie hoped that; the change would prove of gieat benelitto the southern states, by enablingthem to convert their cotton into cloth." Now there has been, ns this , senator says, a very material change made in the schedule referred to, but his olTort to associate this with the southern states is on a par with tho effort of some of our northeastern ' writers and speakers, who claim that ' the south is getting all the protection in the proposed tariff bill, while the ! rest of the country is being ignored. The cotton schedule, as framed, was framed almost distinctly in the inter est of New Kngland. The. reason foithis change in . the direction of pro tection was that during the last fewyears we have been spinning in this country cotton yarnsof high eounts.or. in other words, of a fine quality, and it is held that we cannot compete suc cessfully with the cotton spinners in Kugland, France and Germany in this class of work. Hut these fine yarns have been spun almost entirely in the northeast. We doubt whether there is a single mill south of Mason and Dix on s line that is engaged in tins line work. Without exception, the cotton mills of the south spin coarse yarns ami weave a coarse class of goods, not so coarse as they did a few years ago, but still decidedly so when compared with the work which the niiiended tariff is intended to pioteet. In the manufacture. ofthesecoar.se cotton goods we stand pre-eminent. For more than half a century we have steadily exported cotton fabrics of this character, sidling; them in China and the Ivast Indies in competition with the English, and at times selling them even in England. To tell the southern people that they are protected in their cotton manufactures is just as sophistical as to inform the wheat growers in the west that the tariff protects them, and wo regret to say that in making such statements, those making them, both here nnd elsewhere, must be doing so for the purpose of deception, since the fuels are too well known to assume that there is any mistake in the premises. Another self-evident misstatement is that for which Senator Frye is responsible, who, in the same debate, is said to have made the. assertion that "the republican senators were in favor of ;i duty on wool because they did not believe; that a pound of wool would be raised in the I'nited States if there was no duty on it." Senator Frye, in mat ters of this Kind, is always si loose talker, but weshouldsuppose thut,con- ; the fact that within six or sidering eight weeks wool will be free, and that uu opportunity in the next year or two will thus be afforded of nroving beyond the possibility of a doubt the absolute ly ridiculous character of the above pioted assertion, he would have sufficient regard for his own reputation to put some mild sort of restraint upon Iiis tongue. The proposed tariff reform hill is far from being the reform measure that we wish it was, but it will certainly have this effect that it will prove to the people of this country that the advocates of protection, such as Senator Frye and others, are either en tirely ignorant of tho first principles of economic science, or they have been for years past indulging in the most arrant sort of wilful misstatements Uoston Herald. ESSENTIALLY BAD. The Modllle.l Semite Hill KrlutbiK to Sii(cr Ik Xiit Tariff ICeftirin. Democrats who believe in substantial, enlightened reforms in tariff legislation do not approve the modified senate tariff bill relating to sugar. It is contrary to democratic principles and beliefs. It is molded on tho repulsive formsof.McKiuleyi.stn and iseshciit hilly bad. Hut it is exasperating nnd ridiculous in the republicans to assail the sugar protection feature of the modified bill and to accuse the democrats of being' corrupted or wheedled by the agents of the sugar trust in its adoption. I framing the new sugar schedule the democrats departed from the line of instructions given at the ballot box in Is'.C and followed the line of McKinleyism. Whether they were bought up or bamboozled they did just what the republicans have done in every tariff act that they have passed, and probably from the same motives, The McKinley bill inside raw sugar free and put a duty of one-half cent per pound on refined sugar. This was to protect and to enrich the sugar trust. The new modified senate tariff bill places a small duty on raw sugar and a larger duty on refined sugar and postumes the imposition of the tax until next January. This is to protect and enrich the sugar trust. The democrats simply followed a pernicious and probably corrupt republican example. It is detestable hypocrisy and balderdash for the republicans now to accuse democrats of working in the interests of the sugar trust. Every line of the republican tariffs relating to sugar, from llrst to hist, has been written by agents of the sugar combines of various character. The McKinley bill was framed throughout by the trusts. The lobby agents hi each trust interest were Invited into the counsels r i..Ki1..i-V ..Minmit tee. nnd wcra told' to write in the bill the .schedule, tit duties that they wanted on their products. That was what made the McKinley bill a "seien title tariff" toielitllie in its systematic larcenies. The democratic party does not beilege In the senate sugar schedule placed as a patch on the Wilson bill, and it is probable that it will yet be defeated. Protective tariff lcfrislatlon breeds trusts. Protective tariff legislation by democl.its breeds trusts the same aa proUotlv tariff legislation by rcpub-

There is no difference in the result when the Iniquitous course is onco entered on, There is a great difference, however between u party, like the democrats, the muss of which is opposed to tho whole tariff' infinity and is coerced into Mime of the practhn;s of Its opponents through the corruption or the folly ol a few of its representatives, und a party, like the republican, the muss of which heartily supports the tariff abomination and ..otone member of which, in or out of congress, raises his voice against it. The sugar schedule as it now stand is a fine example of republican protective tariff' thievery. It was forced upon the party in the senate be a few pretended democrats who have drawn their morals and their politics from the republicans. It is the one genuine

'""Hole of republican faith in the bill. ll is outrageous that tue impiuicni orators and editors who have defended this sort of thing, not as to the sugar ! trust alone, but as to all the trusts, should now attempt with ill-concealed bud faith to disown their own offspring. Chicago Herald. BLANKET TARIFF. Tim Wall of I'roteetlon Thrown Arouno llhinki't Miuiufaet urem. It is reported that many of the duties on woollens In the senate's tariff hill duties ranging from twenty-five up to fifty cents in the dollar will probably be advanced as much as five per cent. This done, the linance committee may win a repetition of the plaudit "perfectly satisfactory" which it received from the republican leader for its cotton schedule. When the republicans get all the increase of "protection" they desire the schedules will no doubt be entirely "scientific!" It is true the wall of "protection" which the senate is building is not as high us that reareil in lS'.K) by the republicans. Hut a Chinese wall fifty feet high may be practically almost as exclusive as one a hundred feet high. And it is not strange that the South Dakota Senator made such a galj laut light for -free wool and low du- ! ties on woollen clothes and blankets I necessary to keep his constituents from freezing on their bli..ard-swept I plains. j There is something peculiarly griev- ! fins in making blankets costly and I dear. A tax on woollen clothing so j high as to prevent many millions from buying a warm suit to turn the icy i gales of winter is bad enough. Still, ; the "protectionist democrat may argue, with some color ot logic, mat comfortable clothes, especially when sot off' with Troy collar and cuffs, min ister to pride and vanity. It will do the people no liurni to wear their old clothes till they dropoff; the tax will have, too, a moral effect will build up our "infant, industries" and enhance wages -in a word, it is a highly patri otie and American tax!

Herald. CoiiihiR Hoiei1 tn Itoot. One of the neat little tricks, say the New York Lvening Post, played by the woolen manufacturers in the Mc Kinlev bill is now coming home ta plague them. In that "scientific" tariff they wrote in for themselves a I sneeitic duty enual to four times tho j dlltv j)cr puumi on wool nml in ua,H tion r() per cent, ad valorem. The specille duty was "compensatory" Ihat is, ns it took four pounds of raw wool to make one pound of cloth, tlm four-fold duty only made up for the tariff on the raw material, and the real protection was found only in the .riO per cent, ad valorem. Now comes the senate bill leaving out the compensatory specific duty, of course, as there is to be no tax 011 wool to compensate for, and gdving a rate of 4Ü per cent, ad valorem on tho finished product. Hut the woolenmanufacturers cry out as one man that this means ruin to them. "What," asked the astonished committee, "can't you stand oue-lifth off your former protection, admitted to be high?" Then the manufacturers draw the senators off into a corner and say: "The fact is. we lied when we said it took four pounds of wool to make one pound of cloth; it really takes considerably less than three, and the biggest part of our protection lay in the specific dt.ty." So at least says the Wool and Cotton lleporter, and adds: "The proper thing to do now for manufacturers is to confess to a little deception regarding the make-up of the specific duty, admit the truth, and ask for recognition of actual facts. The protection was needed, and the only sin committed vas in the way it was obtained." ,V !erlnien Tutlff Swindle. In the senate metal schedule I notice that they have placed a duty of 10 per cent, ad valorem on bronze powders. This is an article which, if manufactured at all in tills country, is only made to a very Hmitca extent. In fact, I have never heard of its being madu by anyone here. Ninety-five jier cent of all that is used comes from Europe, mostly from Germany. It is used by wall paper, molding, picture-frame, gas-lixture and other manufacturers, and every painter in the United Ststtes. If the duties are kept at this very high rate it will be a source of great hardship to ;v very large class of workinir people, mere is a wen authenticated report in circulation thai the National Wall Paper Co., n gigantic monopoly, is going to start r.tanuf&cO tiring bronze powders on n very largo scale. If this is the case it will enable them to collect blood-money from the few outside manufacturers in their lino and others who have to use It in their business. Under existing circumstances It seems very clear to me that 10 per cent, ad valorem is a high enough duty for this class of goods. And, in fact, it ought to be placed on the freu list. üor. N. V.
