A MATRIMONIAL JAR. —- *fhe PainfUl Tale of a Husband Who Had Twenty-Eight Hats. It might have remained there a long • -time. Picket's new hat, if Mrs. Picket v did not repeat every tune her eyes fell upon it: ( ' ;s ' "What in the world possessed you to buy another new hat, when you leave it there for weeks w ithout ever opening ♦he box it came in?" "But,” said Picket, "I h»v? not worn ft, because you keep telling me that fr.y old one looks all right." “Yes, and you already have 27 hats ■that you have quit wearing, and you leave them in your closet covered with <lust. What in the world do you keep them for? Why don’t you throw them awav?” '

“Throw them away! And yet yott in&w- very well that* you never throw Anything away. You woujd not throw away a match that had been already lighted. Y'ou're 60 fond of saying:. Tt might come in handy.’ ” “Well.” sad Mrs. Picket, “It is true -that 1 never throw" away things that might come in handy, but how can old Bats come in handy ? What sens* is ■there in piling up old hats which are of no use to anyone, when there are so many poor creatures who walk the streets barefooted?” “15ut.” said Picket, “they could not wear my hats on their bare feet " “I don’t see anything funny in that.” aaid Mrs.- Picket, icily'. “You know ■what 1 mean. Y'ou needn’t pretend that you don’t understand me. Why don’t you send for an old clothes man and ♦ell him your hats?” “I never think of it.1* “Fd like to know what you do think of, I don’t think you think”at all. But do as you please. Buy new hats, wear them, don’t wear them. It’s your own affair.” Mrs Picket concluded with saying: “Y'ou make me tired,” and idle retired fnun the room, slamming the door with a violence which mode the chandelier rattle. ••Such is married life,” said the stupefied Picket, gazing after his wife. ••Whether I do a thing or don’t do it, ■ 1 am certain not to please mv wife. Take that jp*w hat, for example! ■•What did yofi buy it for?* said she, •when you never wear it?* and the first <iay that I put it on togoout she will be sure td say: ’What ure you wearing your new hat for when the other one is All right still?* ” Some days afterwards Picket said to Bis wife; “I am going out.*’ “Indeed,” said Mrs. Picket, “where ar*1 you going?" “I nm going to see poor Marley. who Is ill.” > “And do you put on your new hat to see poor Marley ?” “Just what 1 expected you to say," remarked lMckeL ;“YVs. that is ju-t i what I am going to do. 1 am going to wear my new hat. See?” “Well, why dent you throw your old one in the closet With the others?” With rising ibge, Picket took up the <lil hat, opened the closet door, and Burled the venerable hat with much ■tioience into the closet. “Then*.” said he* “I hope you wilp 4jire me a rest on this hat business!” “That makes the twenty-eighth,” re

BESCtJXU IT FBOM THE GITTE3. plied Mrs. Picket, with a burst of s&r<lor> i«- la ughter.; • Picket went pot. lie started toward Parley's house, but he had scarcely (one more than a couple of blocks w hen it began to mitt. "There," said the unfortunate Picket, ■“just my luck. Ileginiing to min. Gob • new hlu on, and no umbrella.** He started into a neighboring door -way to wait until the shower should cease, and as he did so a man carrying a long plank on his shoulder turned •nd swept the unfortunate Picket's hat front 1m head Into the gutter. Cursing * the pirate, the luckless Picket pursued his sew hat, and m

coed it from the gutter much damaged and covered with mud. A passing Good Samaritan stopped and said to him: “There’s a hatter a couple of doom up the street there; he will brush it off and touch it up with the iron, and ic will be all rigfct.” “Thank you,” said Picket, and he repaired to the hatter’s. When he had ! his hat polished, he stood upon the doorstep for a moment, and, not wish - ing again to expose his hat to the fury of the elements, he determined to step into a friendly restaurant next door, where he would wait until the storm was over. He went in, seated himself at a table, hung up his hat on one of the hooks over his head, ordered a sandwich and began to look over the paper. But he could not take his mind away from the satirical welcaune which j he knew his wife would extend to hint I when he returned with -fiis damaged j hat. However, the Rubicon had to be I crossed. The ram had ceased. He rose, j and. still reflecting on his wife's recep- j tion, took a hat from the hook and was j about to go, when two waiters came up to him and grabbed him by the col* j lur. s “Now we’ve got him,” said one. “Yes,” said the other; “we have got him now. This is the fellow who has been stealing hats.” Picket, paralyzed with astonishment, protested. “What! I steal hats!” ho said. “What do you mean?" “You will'have an opportunity to explain this at the police station,” was the reply, and the proprietor, who had whis- | tied for a policeman at the door, turned him over to the hands of a blue-coated 1 guardian of the peace. The unfortunate Picket was yanked along the street, followed by a crowd of passers by, who applauded his arrest, and a number of street boys, who signified their approval more forcibly by hurling mud at —_ n

GRABBED HIM BY THE COLLAR. j* him. When the party reached the police station, the proprietor of the-res-taurant made his complaint to thj sergeant then,-. “That's the man,” said he. “For the last two weeks some scoundrel has been coming- to my restaurant, and whenever he goes out somebody misses a hat. \\V have l»eeu watching for him. Now we’ve got him. There he is. This is the thie*. We caught him in the very act.” “Hut I was simply mistaken in the hat,” cried Picket. “If I were stealing a hat I would have two here, but 1 haven’t. This is not mine, but you will find mine hanging on the hook.” “Yes,” said the restaurant man. “I know. Ordinarily you were in the habit cf carrying a gripsack in which you put the other hat. This time you came without it.” “Hut I am an honest map,1” persisted the unfortunate Picket. “I am well known. Let the officer go to my house, and he will see.” He gave his name and his address, and the sergeant, Wavering ip the face of his protestations, sent an officer to accompany him to the address given. In about half an hour the officer returned bearing an enormous pile of hats.

I “lit*tv, sergeant, said the latter, | “see w hat I found in the fellow’s house. ! His wife hail gone out. ami it was the ! servant who let me in.” said the sergeant, severely I booking at the accused |**rsnn, “do you I still deny that you are a hat thief?*1 I gazing at the gigantic pile of hats. “I deny it. I deny it in toto,” said the unfortunate Picket. “I bought these I h«t>. I don’t wear t*hem. but I bought them.” “You don’t wear them? What in the world can you do w ith hats?” “Well, you see my wife has always told me to sell them to an old-clothes I man. I never think of it. I am so forgetful. Why. to-day I even forgot my umbrella. 1 never had any head.” “You have no head? What ilo you want with 2$ hats, then?” Hut at this moment a weeping woman entered the police station. It was Mrs. Picket. She had beard from the servant of the plight in which her luckless husband was placed, and came and told the police sergeant who he w as and that tin hats , were really his. Put was Picket grateful tp her? Hardly. He wished a thousand times that she had not heard •bout his misadventure and that he had succeeded in goingthrough all the pains and horrors of a police court far rather than that she should find him there with the 2s hats—2$ mute witnesses of her superior judgment staring him in the face. JHe said to himself, mentally: t “Never shall I hear the last of those 23 hats.” He never did. In fact, he got it morning, noon and night. He had it with breakfast, lunch and dinner. Ha had it with his soup. He had it w ith his nightcap. He had it with his morning slippers. And whenever the rain began falling, and poor Picket would incautiously say: ». “What dreadful weather!” “Yes,” Mrs. Picket would reply, “exactly the same kind of a day as when you got rid of your 38 hats. ”—Sax Francisco Argonaut. , —Tennyson was 18 whan jfcis list hook of'poems appeared.

N TARIFF RUN MAD. of Hula That Baa Taken ttloo of FrotoeWoa Orgaaa The Press, of Philadelphia, and its namesake in New York, are making a deal of noise about the depression in the woolen manufacturing industry, which they ascribe to insufficient tariff protection. This is what is technically known as a “political racket.” The well known fact is that the existing depression is not peculiar to the woolen industry, but prevails equally in the cotton trade. “So much the worse,” is the exclamation of the tariff Innatics, “if the cotton manufacturers are suffering also, they need more protection too.” But how do you know that? The Dry Goods Economist, which has good facilities for knowing the truth, reminds this pair of calamity howlers that the present tariff on cotton goods was framed by the New England manufacturers themselves and has always been regarded as satisfactory by them. The same paper takes up some particular cases of failures specified by these papers, and looking into their assets finds abundant reason for their embarrassment outside of the tariff. Thus, in the case of one of them, which appeared in a “scare-head” saying: “Three firms fail for 8600,000—Angora mills are shut down and 400 operatives out of work—the new tariff was the cause," it was found that the principal proprietor had made an unfortunate speculation in unproductive real estate an4 that this was the cause 6l the failure. Another had been indorsing paper to enable a third party to carry on building operations, and this had brought him and his operations to grief. The Dry Goods Economist thinks that while the depression in business is do doubt serious, it is made much worse by these newspapers and their scareheads. This is the view also of the Wool and Cotton Reporter. Even the Tribune, which generally howls with the wolves when anybody mentions the tariff, says that the present trouble is due to overspeculation, especially in the woolen industry. “The traders,” it says, “almost all overloaded last fall, in the notion that a demand, which suddenly appeared, was not only going to last, but to increase; and nothing that the soberest men in various branches of business could say sufficed to check the excess of purchases and production."

vie regret to notice a tendency to tariff mania in the Philadelphia Ledger also. This sedate newspaper, commenting on the recent meeting of the republican silver senators and certain Pennsylvania manufacturers,, speaks of the former as men who "by voting during the present session of congress to accomplish the defeat of the house revenue bill, betrayed not only the principles of the party which elected them, but the country whose interests as public servants they were solemnly sworn to subserve.” The Ledger also alludes to them in the same article as the "Road Agents of the Rockies,” meaning that they have held up a republican stage coach full of innocent passengers for the purpose of going through their pockets. This kind of talk passes the bounds of fair discussion. If the two Presses, whose joint howling disturbs the public ear, should say that Senator Teller and his colleagues “have betrayed the principles of the party which elected them,” a^l the extremists would probably agree with them. They would .not remember that the republican party has been in power most of the time during 30 years, has made 32 tariffs, and never passed one as high as the existing tariff till McKinley took hold. Therefore it would be perfectly <jfair for Mr. Teller and his friends tp reply that if they have betrayed the principles of the party, then every congress that sat before the McKinley bill was passed betrayed; them also. Those principles were betrayed by Senator Sherman, who always held! that members of the party were at liberty to differ on the subject of schedules and rates of duty. So, too, i it might be said that Senator Morrill some years ago betrayed the principles of the paifty because he voted against a protective tariff on tin plate. Still more is Senator Nelson, of Minnesota, exposed to such a charge because he spoke and voted against the McKinley tariff itself.

but the Ledger goes much further when it says that those “road agents of the rookies” have betrayed “the country whose interests as public servants they were solemnly sworn to subserve." That means that anybodj'.who votes against the Dingley bill is a traitor to his country. All the democrats and populists are in a parlons state by this definition. They are not included in the first count of the Ledger’s indictment, because they have never sworn allegiance to the republican party, but they have sworn allegiance to the country and have forfeited it, according to this description. Moral guilt equally heinous must attach to all persons, whether members of congress or not, who are opposed to the Dingley bill. Now that the Ledger has got us all into this plight it, is bound in fairness to get ns out. The opinion most commonly held by business men and trade journals is that the prevailing depression is dne^p war scares and foreign complications more than to any other cause. These insensate alarms, absolutely gratuitous on our part, have followed each other without any intermission ever since Mr. Cleveland sent in his Venezuelan message. This was sufficient to unsettle business, as the ensuing panic showed, but that cause of disturbance wonld have passed away if congress had not joined in the war dance and kept it up in a frantic way ever since, giving no time for themselves or the public to cool qff. No sooner did we begin to have a respite and some sense of security and relief than the Davis resolutions were reported by the senate committee, with John Sherman at its head. Then came the Armenian resolutions, to be followed shortly by two sets of resolutions on Cuban affairs which provoked the hot-heads of Spain to do foolish things in iasitatioa of ua Of ooursa. with

two or three wars In prospect* there is a ^reat clamor for fori*, battle ships, hi? (funs, ammunition, etc., although the government is running on borrowed money and has been obliged to borrow more than 8100,00iJ,000 since the pow wow began. When we begin preparations for war there is no place to stop. Consequently the fellow who calls for the largest expenditure secures the largest share of public attention, and this is what he seeks Why anybody should explore remote corners of the tariff to find causes of business depression when we have such incessant roaring at Washington on foreign affairs, national honor, Monroe doctrine, Cuba, battle ships, and torpedoes can only be explained on the theory that tariff and McKinley ism are one and indivisible. If we are tariff mad we are for McKinley. If we have, room in our heads for Venezuela or Cube, for finance or fortifications, we may be for some other windidate. This is a good reason why we should shout for more tariff evsry time a woolen or cotton spinner trices a flyer in stocks or real., estate tad spins himself into the hands of a receiver in consequence.—N. Y. Even ag Post_ TURNER ON BAYARD. Tbn Eloquent Oeonrln Con*res!man 15*poeee Protection Corruption. The debate in %he house of representatives on the resolutions clearing Ambassador Bayard for hisfeemdemnation of the protection fraud was closed pn the democratic side by Congressman Turner, of Georgia, who said: ? “The party to which I belong has no great army of mercenaries. There are none of those who have put up for onr use the sinews of war. There are none to whom we have given bohnties; there are none to whom we have given booty and plunder, and there are none on whom we can draw—ao special classes that have grown fat by policies that we have enacted and out of whom we can extract the grease. I hesitate to put it in the vulgar vernacular of the republican hustings. “But it is not so with our adversaries. They have bestowed largesses and donatives upon special interests for a generation, and the army of protection—the Pretorian guard of the tariff—is about to dispose of the presidential purple. Mr. Bayard offended

lucse jeuuemen ai Duiuuur^ uy apcatwing of the tendency of protection to a mercenary, scramble, as averred in the resolutions. If the indictment is true, any man ought to be allowed to proclaim it on the housetop and anywhere in the world. The proof is already furnished. Out of the mouths of his assailants comes the demonstration of the truth of this great indictment. The senator from New Hampshire (Mr. Chandler), a, gentleman well known for his devotion to the republican party, has testified with great emphasis and detail, and after deliber*' tion reiterated it. " “Mr. Speaker, when these things are charged and said here at home they meet no denial; they meet no contradiction; no investigation is demanded; there is no challenge given to it; but if somebody on the other side of the ocean announces or demonstrates the' vicious and corrupt tendencies of protection, this insolent power says to him, no matter how distinguished, ‘silence, sir.’ “So far from there having been any impropriety in the utterance at Edinburgh, the question was one rising high above all iffere matters of taste, of courtesy, or of diplomatic propriety. It was a matter about which a patriot might anywhere speak as with a trumpet. It wan an occasion on which he might speak, to be heard by all mankind, against the degradation and slavery and corruption of tne system which he denounced. Sir, if I had it in my power, in face of the peril that confronts us and the country, de* nounced even by those who are quarreling about their rivalries and the preliminary divisions of the spoils—I say, sir, if I had my way I .would put in every honest hand 9 whip to scourge this demon of protection naked through the world. As the shadow of this great peril gathers around us and its gloom falls on the jcapitol, I would kindle in that dome a light as a warning to my countrymen which should be as "I. "When the sun his beacon red Had kindled on Ben Vorlich's head.”

Amrricjn Boots and Shoos In England. According to the London Boot and Shoe Trades Journal, the English manufacturers of footwear have nothing to fear from French, Austrian or German competition, as in spite of their cheaper labor the imports from those countries are steadily declining. Xc>t so with the importations from America, which are rapidly increasing. The reason, says the Journal, is not because of cheap raw material or the low wages of American shoemakers, but the low cost of production, the result of improved machinery and highly skilled labor. The successful competition by American industry with the long established boot and shoe manufacturers of England is a fact which contradicts the protectionist theory that we n£ed a tariff against European cheap labor. England, where wages are far higher than in protection Austria, France and Germany, can undersell those countries. If our boots hod shoes can in turn undersell the English products, why do we need a tariff “to proteat” our home market? S*v $oatbera Cotton Mill*. President Dwight, of the Nashua Manufacturing Co., Nashua, 2f. H., recently visited Cordova, Ala., and selected a site on which his company will at once erect a 1600,000 cot ton mill. The new factory will be the largest ot its kind in Alabama, and will be equipped with all the latest and best improvements in machinery. Calamity croaking McKinleyites will please take notice that their efforts to scare business men from undertaking new enter* prises, are not meeting wiib tose# sucesa Lying stories of Industrial ruin caused by low tariff taxes are «rf little weight when compared with SU fact each aa the above.
