12 — E VOTED FOR IT Senator Smith Stated His Position Upon the Tariff Bill. SATISPACTCRY AS IT NCW STAND’, Except as to the Iniquitous Income Tax. BELIEVES IN PROTECTION aiid Senator Smith of New Jersey, wio has been numbered by some as a democrat who might vote against the tariff bill be- cause of his known opposition to the in- come tax feature, last evening defined kis position im a speech in the Senate, in which he said: In the course of previous remarks which I made upon this question I pledged to my constituents my utmost endeavors to “elim!- nate the socialistic income tax,” to “read- Just the schedules to conforin with the doc- our industries sufficient protection to guar- @ntee their maintenance on the basis of American wages, “and finally, to fulfill’ the distinct obligation of the democratic party to confer the boon of tariff reform upon the American people. His Only Regret. That pledge, sir, I have kept to the full Umit of my ability and opportunity. My only regret at this time is that the small minority of Senators on this side of the chamber who oppose the income tax have been unable to convince our colleagues of the public and party wisdom of striking it out altogether from the bill. Even then—if republican Senators had not voted for this scheme, {t weuld have been blotted out of existence. But I cannot deny that demo- cratic Senators who favor the idea have met us in a spirit of fairness and reason. ‘They have consented to the exemption of building and loan associations, mutual life insurance associations, savings banks and other organizations of like characte>, in which are invested the savings of the poor. ‘They have eliminated the hateful inqu' torial features. And, finally, and most tm- portant of all, they have agreed to the pas- Sage of this amendment in such a shape that it will be submitted to the people upon its practical operations, not as a settled Policy of the government, but as an experi- ment to be tried for a short time, and then a or rejected as the country shail The Most Detestabie Method. Mr. President, of all the methods of taxa- tion I consider this the most detestable. I expressed before and repeat tow with doubled emphasis my earnest conviction | that it Is unnecessary, unjust, unsuccess- ful, unpopular and undemocratic, unamer!- can and unwise. I never could conscien- tously, and never would for any reason Whatsoever, vote to incorporate it into our system for an indefinite period of time. I! @id and shall at every opportunity in the} future vote against it as a separate propo-| sition. But, sir, the astonishing str ani persisten own by the advocates of the idea make it certain in my mind that there is only one way of escap: is by trial. The sole practical question now | before us who oppose this scheme whether {t shall be foisted upon very early day in a far more offensive form than now, without limit to its time or} ion. sir, Is the situation we are obliged to face, and of the two evils I am con-! strained to choose the lesser.

The little blue and white checked ginghams are pretty if made in this way and have the additional charm of not soiling eually THE FOURTH IN OTHER LANDS Old Glory Spread to the Breese and Patri- , otic Speeches Made. How Our National Holiday is Ho: Abroad—it is Uncle Sam’s Great Day. The Fourth of July is probably observed more generally all over the world than the national holiday of any other people. Wherever, of course, one finds a colony of Americans there one will be sure the glo- rious Fourth is held in remembrance Aside from these celebrations by Ameri- cans away from home in many lands, the day 1s officially recognized in England. The official celebration of the day in Eng- land is, if course, that held in the Amer!- can embassy in London, with Ambassador Bayard as host. So fully recognized in England are the cvstoms incident to this day that it is an understood tiling that no one connected with the embassy shall be asked to any affair that Is timed to cover the Fourth of July. For thirty years the Queen of England and the Prince of Wales have been represented at the banquet given by the American minister on this day. The affair this year will be held in the dining room of the quaint old building which has so long housed the American dip- lomatic representatives. The stars and stripes not only float from the roof, as on ordinary days, but the building itself is draped. The toasts are always to the United States, the President and the queen. The nation will be spoken for by Mr. Bay- ard and the queen by a member of the British cabinet. As long ago as May 15 Mr. Asquith was delegated to represent the ministry at the banquet. Mr. Roosevelt, in his capactly as secretary of embassy, will act as toastmaster. Th! ear the guests will include four am! rs to England from the European powers, and James ‘Kier Hardie, the labor representative in parlia- ment—a sufficiently cosmopolitan contrast. At Cliveden, Mr. William Waldorf As- tor’s country seat, preparations for a Fourth of July celebration have been mak- ing for nearly two months, and the number of Mr. Astor's guests will run into the hundreds, Henry Labouchere himself pre- dicting in a recent number of “Truth” that the affair will undoubtedly prove the event of the summer season. The Vanderbilts have not yet anaounced any social event in commemoration of the day, in spite of the fact that their superb seat in England is about ready for occupancy. Enthusiasm in Ireland. In Dublin the American flag always floats from Trinity on the Fourth of July, and the lord mayor invariably toasts the stars and stripes on that day at a banquet which is usually given by the consul from the United States. In Cork the Rifles pa- rade on that day or hold a special drill, in the ranks. But the music {s always. the “Star Spangled Banner.” With the single exception of St. Patrick's day, there fs no holiday celebrated with more enthuslasm in Cork than the Fourth of July, as there are numbers of Americans living there, not to speak of the hosts of Irishmen who have friends in the new world who are Cork- onian born. The Irish members of parila- bration of the day in the constituencies of the south of Ireland, and they express offi- elally on that occasion their gracitude for American sympathy with home rule. There not deliver an address of some sort on the | Fourth of July, and these speeches are | wound up with a salute to the stars and Stripes. The usual testimony after the ban- quets is a telegram of congratulation at the end of the speechmaking to some friend of Ireland in Americ, and the preparations indicate that these mesasges will keep the wires warm this year for several hours. French Observances, On the continent the observances are more official. In France the president of | the republic Is always represented at the banquet of the American diplomatic rep- | resentative, and it has been customary for him to grant our diplomatic representative precedence on that day in receptions at the Elysee. The French Academy is one of the few learned bodies to take official cogni. zance of the day by a display of the stars and stripes, which has been the custom } since Victor Hugo's famed oration on the Fourth in 1884. In Paris the memory of | Franklin and of Jefferson Is honored on | the day our nation was born, while the | Lafeyette Society always gives a dinner on | the Fourth. The descendants of the Frenchmen who helped us achieve our in- dependence always give a dinner on the Fourth of July, to which the descendants | of the Bourbon dynasty are invarlabiy in-| vited, and which invitation they always accept, if even by proxy.

In Italy the American embassy will honor the day with the usual banquet and the: But this year Mr. Wayne MacVeagh will not hold any cele-| bration in the hell of the building so long | made memorable by the celebration of nis! predecessors, since it is not in condition for | such exercises.

The American Church in Rome ts resorted | to by the transient visitors to the eternal | city, as specal services are always held | there on the Fourth. Honored in Spain, The Infanta Eulalie will give a dinner this year in honor of the Fourth of July. She invited Gen. Horace Porter to be pres. ent at it when she was in New York dur- ing the Columbian festivities, and express- ed herself as anxious to honor all things American during the rest of her life. It is well known that she took away with her a most artistically gotten up copy of the Declaration of Independence, which no doubt will be accorded the place of honor when the diners assemble in the home of the princess. Rarely do things American receive the degree of attention accorded them now by the court of Spain in view of the honor with which the name of the man sent out by Spain 400 odd years ago has been hailed these last few years, in Othee Lands. Germany will not be so elaborate in hon- oring the day in view of the absence from the capital of our embassador to the court of the kaiver. Austria has not been par- ticularly conspicuous in connection with the Fourth of July at any time in her his- tory, but the little republic of Switzerland is to take note of the holiday by the un- usual circumstance that the ruler of that republic will himself give a dinner on the day. During the long service of Mr. Denby as minister to China he has won such esteem that anything pertaining to America is agreeable in Pekin in spite of current as- pects of the Chinese question. The Viceroy Li sent a special address last year to our minister on the occasion of the dinner given on the birthday of our republic. Another which honors the Fourth ts Rut sia. American officials are esteemed In S Petersburg since the Russian treaty 1s highly gratifying to the czar. In the ab- sence of an embassador from this republic the dinner will not be graced by the pres- ence of a prince of the blood, but our gov- ment has been officially informed that sian government will send and re- ceive embassadcrs from and to St. Pete burg and Washington commencing with the present year. The Fourth of July in the Russian capital, however, has never been much observed, except in the home of the American minister, but, as intimated, the present year promises to inaugurate a change in this respect.

An Average Dividend of Over 18 Per Cent to the Shereholders. Annually there comes to the notice of the public the fact that the Suez canal is earn- ing an immense amount of money, and the company’s report for 1548 is now before the public. The profits which ihe shareholders of this corporation are making were last year as large as usual, says the Providence Journal, and they again present, to Ameri- cans especially, the strongest argument that perhaps will ever be offered for the revival of the Central American venture. The dividends paid by the Suez corporation for the last four years have been—1890, 17 per cent; 1891, 21 per cent; 1892, 18 per cent; 1893, 18 per cent. This was on a capitaliza- tion of. 197,125,000 francs, at 500 francs a share, inclusive of a reservation of 5 per ‘ent Interest on the 34,250 shares. With is 5 per cent interest the yearly pay- ‘ents ure made on the company's redeem- able obligations, the totel amount of which was originally 2U2,764,17) francs. Reduced to our own currency terms these figures show that the canal cost in round figures the sum of $0,040,000, of which the share- holders contributed ‘one-half at $100 a share. This investment is now returning anywhere from $21 a share, as in 1801, to $17, in 1800. The company’s exact revenue in 1893 was 76,579,902 francs. The expenses amounted to 36,961,455 francs, leaving a SToss profit of 39,615,537 francs, or a little less than $8,000,000. This is equal to a divi- dend of 72 francs per share,,or with the 6 per cent interest on the shares, 97 francs. The shares in our money thus netted their owners about $14 each, or with the bond reservation, $18. No objection can be made to calling the last figure the real net, ffne it represents the gradual wiping out of company’s bonded obligations, a pi which is steadily going on. If these ob- ligations were paid off as soon as possible, or when convenjence permitted, the share- holders might still recelve over 10 per it, or $10 per share, and yet pay off the ind@bt- edness in twenty-five years. The practical question in applying this lesson of Suez,as we may call it,to the Cen- tral American project, is whether the ship- ping business of the eastern waterway ts et all analogous and similar to the business which would be done at Panama or in Nicaragua. Is Suez in a position whith offers it a chance of larger usefulness to patrons than a channel across Centtal America would provide? The man who would say that it is would risk any reputa- tion he might have as an economist of able caliber. In the same way the financter who does not appreciate the value of the Proposed route from the Atlantic to the Pa- cific is risking his good name as a spéeu- lator and capitalist. How the English to- day laugh at the foresight of the late Khe- dive of Egypt for selling his shares in the Suez canal in 1875 for $20,000,000. The same shares are worth $85,000,000 today. Yet the German, Parts and other bourses of Eu- ropes, together with the smost far-seeing bankers in the world, permitted Disraeli a man who was not a financier as ‘we i~ narily understand the word,to buy up these shares; The future will bring ridicule upon United States capitalists and financiers if they permit any one else to build the Pan- ama or Nicaragua at and own it. Every year shows how much one or the other of these routes is demanded by commerce. The new movement in the acquirement and de- velopment of the Australian world, with the utilization of the Pactfle islands as coaling stations and depots, is at this very moment increasing the prospective and potential value of the work enormously. ———_+e+— IS BLOOD THICKER THAN WATER? Or do These Incidents Merely Arise From Community of Language? Once upon a time, while guest on board a big English battle ship, some officers of the | ward room sought to tease me in regard to relative merit of American and English sailors in certain naval engagements of which I had a sadly hazy idea, says a writer in Herper’s Weekly. I was slowly gather- ing steam for a patriotic explosion, when one of my British sailor friends turned the tables in my favor by this jerky little speech: “That may all be true, but I was at the bombardment of Alexandria, and we were in a bad fix, and aj) the warships of other countries drew off and left us to fry in our own fat, and then the Americans came and helped us. They landed their men; they kept order In Alexand-la; they acted con- trary to orders, but then they said that ‘blood is thicker than water.’ At this the whole ward room burst into a cheer, and nothing more was heard of Chesapeake and Shannon yarns. Then another weather-beaten marine barnacle ‘old his little. story. “I said, in a voice like a muffled fog-horn. “When that hurricane struck Samoa our ship just managed to steam out of the har- bor and escape total wreck. As we steamed | anxiously end very slowly through the howling wind and blinding sea we could make out the Americans in the rigging of the Trenton—and they” were all in the pres- ence of death. But they didn’t think of that. They gave us three cheers, and it made the hearts of our men Jump up and choke them when they henrd those cheers, and it made me feel at last that ‘blood is thicke> than water.’” So, on the night of May 25 Americans and Englishmen sat down in London to a feast intended to once more emphasize the fact that the great English-speaking family has mission of civilization to perform; that we | are of one parent stock; that when we quar- reled it was because we did not knew haw to appreciate one another’s good qualities and that in future war between England and Amertea {s out of the question so long as Englishmen and Americans speak the same language. The keynote to the banquet given by Englishmen to the officers and men of the Chicago was furnished by one after another of the entertainers. They once more toid of how the British men-of. war lay off the mouth of the Pei-Ho river, near the ugly mud flats which stretch out before the Taku forts which bar the ap- proach to Tien-Tsin and Pekin. I have been up into that country and heard the over and over again from eyewit- ‘The English were again in a ught and again the Yankees overruled en orders to obey the great un- written law, “blood is thicker than-water.”” Admiral Erben of the Chicago, and tha ven- erable English admiral of the fleet; Phipps Hornby, both dwelt upon the assistatwe given by American blue jackets ta those of England fa> away in Chinese waters. This dinner was a remarkable one for the hearty and spontaneous manner in which it was conceived and carried out: for the enthu- slasm with which the Englishmen of every profession crowded for the right to be Present and do honor to the Americans among them. oe Daudet’s Habits of Work. From McClure's Magazine. “My way of working is irregularity itself. Sometimes I work for eighteen hours a day, and day after day. At other times I pass months without touching a pen. I write very slowly and revise and revise. I am never satisfied with my work. My novels I always write myself. I never could dlc- tate a novel. As to my plays, I used for- merly to dictate them. That was when I could walk. I had a certain talent in my legs. Since my illness I have had to aban- don that mode of work, and I regert it. I am an improvisator, and in this respect differ from Zola. I am now writing a novel about youth, called ‘Soutien de Famille,” and these notebooks of mine will show you my way of work. This is the first book. It contains, as you see, nothing but notes and suggestions. The passages which are scratched out with red or blue pencil are passages of which I have already made use. This ts the second stage. You see only one page is written upon, the opposite one being lett blank. Opposite each first composition I write the amended copy. The page on the right is the improved copy of the page on the left. After that I shall rewrite the whole. So that, leaving the notes out of consideration, I wri each manuscript three times running, and, if I could, would write it as many times more; for, as I have said, I am never satisfied with my work. am a feverish and spasmodic worker, but when in the mood can work very hard. When the fit is upon me I allow nothing to interrupt me, not even leaving my writing table for meals. I have my food brought to my desk, eat hurriedly, and set to work be- fore digestion begins. Thus I anticipate the drowsiness that digestion always brings with it, and escape its consequences. Now that I am ill, however, I do not often have those periods of splendid energy. I can pro- duce only very slowly.” —ee*—___—_ Kansas Democratic Ticket. The democratic state convention met at Topeka, Kan., yesterday afternoon.

A Way in Which a Woman Can Ear Money. A new suggestion is made for the bene- fit of women who want to earn money. It is that there is an excellent opportunity in the way of providing lunches for those who cannot leave their business to go |.home. Busy men and women are compelied to rush to a restaurant at an hour when it is crowded and often get inadequately served with something to eat which costs twice what it is worth. The New York Tribune says: Inviting lunches can be pre- pared and sold at prices ranging from 15 to 25 cents, which will give a margin of profit to the seller and give satisfaction to the buyer. Whoever begins this work must bear in mind that one feeds through one’s eyes, and nothing which is not invitingly prepared will ever cell; nor will there be a market tomorrow for today’s unsold stock. ‘fhe tray on which the material for lunches is carried should be spotiessly neat. The sandwiches, cakes, little pies, each should be wrapped in clean white tissue paper, not the Japanese napkins. The boy who car- ries the tray should be neat, even to his finger-nails, and should be ctvil in litte ways. The tongs which come in candy boxes supply a means of lifting food from the fie as cag handling it. Nothing is too, = to be considered by .one who wishes to make a success of serving the public, The meinstay of all cold lunches must continue to be sandwiches, and, properly made, these are delicacies, and the com- binations are aimost unlimited. The bread should always be one day old, at least, and sliced very thin. The butter should be Of tho best quality, and should be soft énough to spread without crumbling the Jot, and the slice should be spread before It Ig cut from the loaf. The five-cent baker's caf will make eight sandwiches. For op i the gandwich should be the size of the slice, but one made by cutting the slice diagonally in halves is very inviting; buf. these should not cost over three cents. Bread for sandwiches may be wheat or graham. It is well to prepare both. je man who does not like this Spanish sanQwich hag never been seen. Slice gra- ka: bread thin. Spread it thinly with “mage mustard’; over this, on one slice, put & layer of cottage or sour-milk cheese; on the other slice spread thickly finely chopped olives, mixed with mayonnaise, and place the two slices one upon the other. For another variation slices of rye bread are ‘buttered, spread with mustard, then witlt tne cottage cheese, and this completes the Sandwich, which is not at all to be de- spised. The cost of these is trifling. Though many women think of sandwiches as nothing but slices of bread separated by meat, that is really only the A B C of sandwich making. Like salads, there is no end of theandwiches which are possible. Try thinly sliced bread spread with mayon- Ndise, on which are laid watercresses or a erisp leat of lettuce. This is delicious in summer. --20¢ - The Value of Automatism. From the Philadelphia Press. A certain automatism is an excellent faculty for a busy woman to acquire. It faves an immense amount of wear and tear of nerve force by dispelling consclous monotony of labor, leaving the mind free to occupy itself with larger interests, and it 1s astonishing how easily a machine- Mke performance of many daily routine duties can be gained. Another undoubted gain of time and ease to the housekeeper is a habit of planning a reasonable length of time before the necessity for carrying | out any work of importance or difficulty; indeed, perhaps no one thing contributes more to the smooth running of the wheels of the domestic machinery. Even house- cleaning may be divested of many of its terrors by the introduction of method into its madness, ‘Much of the perennial and never adjust ed servant difficulty is caused by the fall- ‘ure of houge mistresses to give clear and explicit directions, or by their variable de- mands. Here, again, the tendency of the mind to desire and fall into mechanical action is apparent; the servant is no ex- ception, and she who has a regular rou- tne from which she is seldom expected to vary, finds her “situation” easier and more desirable than the one who has the pros- pect of incessant and unknown change of duties, though the actual work of the for- mer may in the long run be the heavier. Many well-ordered households find it good plan to write out the ordinary daily routine for each servant employed and Place these programs where they can easily be consulted. Where only one servant is employed and the mistress of the house or any members of the family assume certain duties, these | duties should be regularly and well per- formed, {f only for the force of example, for how can one consistently expect of an inferior a promptness and excellence which ene falls to exact of oneself? eel In the Embrace of an Octopus. From the Cincinnati Enquirer. “Only one who has ever experienced the | embraces of an octopus can have any {dea of them,” said L. P. Harkins, at the Bur- net. Florida reefs, when suddenly I felt some- thing cold and slimy touch my leg and be- gin to encircle it. The sensation was not one of pain, but similar to that experienced ‘when you are falling under the influences of a powerful opiate. Then a long arm reached up and grabbed me by the shoulder. For the first time I realized my danger. I was but a short distance from the shore, and within hailing distance of several friends. I called to them for help and started to make a desperate effort to pull the sea monster out to the sands. I suc- ceeded in fighting off the arms that sought to encircle my body, but my lower limbs were securely fastened. My friends re- sponded at once, or I would have lived but a few minutes longer, as my strength was nearly gone. The water was not deep and | they could see the octopus plainly. A few Strokes of a cutlass and I was free. The gteature was captured and measured seven feet from the center of his body to the end of his longest tenacles.” -o+—___ Jast as They Always Were. From the Boston Transcript. Women grow more frivolous every day. Young ladies scorn housework and learn te embroider, play the piano and to flirt, w..ile their mothers are engaged in all the drudgery of the household. They eschew all useful reading, and prefer French nov- els to English classics. In selecting hus- bands they choose dandies with social graces rather than men with solid attain- ments. They are full of strangé, whimsi- cal notions peculiar to the age. Reader, this is the synopsis of the opinions of an Engitsh magazine writer of 1783 on the women of his time. They sound very much as if they were written by certain pessi- mists of today. There is no new thing un- der the sun. ‘THOMAS DOWLING & CO., AUCTIONEERS.
