How the Abolition of the Tex on Matches Will Make Several Mllionalres. CLEvELAND, O., April 15, —Gentle- men_oconnéoted with the Diamond match company, one of the greatest monopolies in the country, lmparted startling Information to ycur corre- spondent to-day. When the tariff bill was before congress Mr, Swift, the president, and Mr, O, C, Barber, vico president of the Dismond match com. pany, appeared before the committees and worked the lobbles to have the tax on matohes retalned, At the timo, it was thought thls action was to better the condition of the Diamond match compacy, who had driven all the emall manufacturers out of busi. ness by ocombinin, all the large matoh factorles In this country and Oanada, Now t appears that the actlon was taken with hopes that the opposition would cause the maich tax to be abolished instead of oontinaed. The Diamond Match com- pany operate immense factories at Akron, O., Wilmington, Del., Chi- oago and other points in United States and Oanada, At the Akron factory alone the company turned out in the month of {March, 57,000 gross of matohes, & gross belng 144 boxes, which retail at eight cents each, This is the greatest amount ever turned out by this factory in the same period. The profits heretofore at the Akron factory have been about $300,000 per year. When the stamp tax is abol- ished the company will put in pocket a8 a clear profit §1 44 on each gross, which heretofore went for stamps. This will make an extra profit of $82,000 per month, or the enormous sum of §1,000,000 extra prcfit in one year. This is for the Akron factory only, the other factories having the same or nearly the same capacity. According to those figures tho men who form the Diamond Matoh com- pany will all be milllonaires at the end of tho next twelve months. They donot anticipate that tho retail price of matches will be reduced for a year, at loast, and do not care if the biggest kind of a raduction comes after that time, as all immediately concerned in the company will have become inde- pendently rich, and will be ready to retire fcom business, The Diamond Match company has proved itself ono of the greatest monopolies of the age. For years they delignted in paying the etamp tax, and secured stamps to immense amounts {rom the govern- ment at a dircount, and drove out all the small manutacturers on the Amer- ican continent. The company is com- posed of Swift of Wilmiogton, Del. 0. O. Barber of Akron, O0.; J. F Hopkias of 8t. Louls, Mo.; i .

OLD JUDGE FLAUK. Some Anecdotes of a Famous West- ern Judge. From the Nevada State. Judge Flack was an old timerin Nevadas, says the Silver State, and as long as he lived in the state he was consplouous, from the time he drank a bottle of bay rum by misteke at Roeno, untll he dled at Elko, He was a Missourian of bat little culture, but of strong natural sense. The lawyers used to ssy his judgment was re- markable, considering the fact he was never known to study out & case argued bofore him, He was @ stubborn, stiff-necked, inde- pendent ‘‘old cuss,” and was thor- oughly honest and iacorrup ible. This latter quallity, so rare nowadays, en- deared him to the people of Elko to such an extent that when king alcohol had almost consumed his vi:als they elected him the third time district judge —during which term he died. i\ There s a spark of hamor ot the grim scrt in the following Incident: Oa the 34 of July, in the year 1678 (or thereabouts), a trial jury had a oase submitted to them which the old judge thought was plain, and he gave them fmpliolt instructions, They wrestled with it all day, however, and dreading imprisonment on the next day, the glorlous Fourth, they sgreed and were anxious to get In thelr ver- dict before 12 o'clock. They sent word to his honor that they had sgreed upon a verdiet, and the at- torneys on each side of the case (Wines and Lindsay) went and found hlm happy over a glass of hot whisky in his favorite saloon, They stated their case and pleaded with him to re- lease the men, who dreaded belng kept tn the close jnry-room all the Fourth of July, which woull be the result If he would not be good enough to recetve their verdlot at once. ‘“No, he wouldn't, Why didn’t they make up thelr minds before?” ‘‘Well, then, judge,” put In Bob Lindsay, ‘‘what are they golng to do wlith their ver- dlot?” L don’t know,” was the ju- diclal rePIy, “‘and I don't care.

A Wealthy Honolula Planter at the Hospital Discovers for the First Time His Awful Condition. From the Philadelphia Record. About two weeks ago a gentleman of pleasing address presented himself to the most eminent surgeon In Amerios, Dr. Samuel D. Gross, of Philadelphis, having lotters of intro- duction from two physlolans of the Sandwich Islands. The man was well- dressed, and evidently acoustomed to good moclety, but, notwithstanding theso advantages, the impression pro- duced by his appearance was not agree- able. Theskin of his faco was of a dirty, sallow color, andoily and shiny, His eyes were heavy, the lids droop- ing and flabby, and his nose dark red in color, The evidences of a prema- ture old age were too strongly stamped upon him to be mistaken, Asa mat- tor of fact—although he did not sus- peos {t—this man was the most horrl- ble of human belngs, a victim of the dreaded disease of the tropios, scaly leprosy. The letters of intro- duction he bere were sealed. They Informed Lr. Gross Loulavills Courler-Journal, Harropsnura, Ky., April 7.—The following on Senator Back and ex- Governor B.

Upon the oococasion of one of his visits to the governor, not a very great while ago, it was nur gested that they call, one bright July afternoon, on the late Major Wm. Daviess, who resided then upon his farm, about one mile from Harrods- burg, and as the goveraor hinted something abont an old bartel the major had stored away in hia cellar the plan was seon pat into exeoution, and {n half an hour they were at Maj. Daviesa' residence. FOR HUMOR, ANECDOTE AND HOSPI- TALITY the major was not exoelled In the blue grass country, and, ‘‘peace be to his ashes,” no man ever derlved more pleasure from a prank upou his friends than he. He welcomed his guests and immediately invited them to test the quality of his liquor and pro- nounce upon its age, brand, flavor, etc., remarking that he wanted to see which was thaLn judge of the two.

Meanwhile the governor sipped it In the shape of groz, They would only agree in regard to one point—that the liquor was good—in faot, very superlor liquor. The sepa. tor pronounced it MoBrayer; the gov- ornor Inalsted that it was the D, L. Moore, known as the COold Water brand, The senator sald It was fully 9 years old; the governor limited it to 6. The while the governor thought if there waa any foreign flavor it was that of leather, At this polnt the host became apparently very Indig- nant, and observed: ‘‘Gentlemen, there's only about a gallon left in the barrel; there was nearly three when you came, and I will have it brought up and opened, and let you see for yourselves there s no adulteration in my whisky,” The barrel was brought us and the head knocked out, and after ateaining the i1emnant of whiskey there was found in the dregs of charcoal a small iron key, with a leather string tled to 1 that the patient, in the oplnlon of the dootors of Honolulu, from whence he came, was a [leper. As they did not regard the disease as contagious, they had advised him to visit the United States and seek the best medlioal ad- vice,. The unfortunate victim is & genudeman of education, the son of American parents, who emgrated from New Hampshire to Honolalu, where he was born thirty.-four years ago. Dr. Gross, after a careful examination of the oase, referred the patient to Dr, John V. Shoemaker, and the un. fortunate was taken to the hospital for skin disease, on Looust atreet. Here he told the story of hi life. He is & planter of ample wealth, whose early manhood and much of his for- tune were spent in excessive dissipa. tion, Heled a merry life for some years, especially among the women of easy virtue on the taland. Eight ~ years l!fl he became sensible of a declded loss of health, and he now recalls a fact to which he pald noattention at the time. A dead spot of akin was begloning to make its appearance just above his knee, Six months later, when he had almost for- gotten his former indlsposition, he married a native lady of. Honoluln, who was & woman In v{gorunl health, “‘Within a year a weak, puny child was born, whioh lived but a few weeks, In the meantime the spot of dead skin began to grow larger, and his fingers and toes becave very sensi- tive. Sharp, shooting pains ran through them. Within a year, how- ever, the pain was sucoeeded by a sen- sation of deadness in his extremeties, and he was soarcely able to distin. uish solld substances. This was tol- lowed by the appearance of blisters on his fingers and toer. Medloal treat- ment falled to check the diseare, and his presence In Philadelphia is the result, His condition {s horrible to contemplate, ‘‘His hands and toes have no sen- satlon, and when needles were stuck into his extremities by Supt. ¥, O, Waterman, the patient sald he did not feel thom, In short, the case was found to be well-defined leprosy, which had begun In the arwthetio form and fiy passed Into the more dread- stages of the dlsease. Dr. Shoe- maker presoriked remedies to tone up the digestive organs, and solutions to apply locally to the spots affected. Oatdoor exerclse, to ooccupy his mind as much as ponsible, was especially urged. In three days the patient re. turned to the hospital looking some. what brighter, but that was :ll. Dr, Shoemaker invited & number of physiolans and some of the students of the hospital to examine the unfor- tunate man, Only a few responded, but among them were D, 8. Satton, of Mendon, Pa., Dr. 0. Young, o Chteago, D. Frederick de Oraft, of Germany, and D. F, E. Stewart, of Philadelphia, It was explained to those present that the disease, ac- cording to the latest and best med- fcal authorities, Is not contaglouns, ex- oept by Inoculation, “‘The result of the consultation was not favorable. It was agreed that the disease, by Froper byglonic measuros, might be alleviztcd, but not cured. Dr, 8hoemaker then advised his pa- tlent to seek some agricultural dis- trict, in a cold reglon of Minnesota or the mountains of Switzarland, to keep hiv mind and body both emoloyed, With this advice he was asked to call again ju two d.i.. The man listened to what was sald to him as one who hears the sentence of his doom, He trembled, and gasped for breath, For the first time he learned that his wastobo a fate worse than death, His emotions overcame him, and bury- ing his head in his hands, he sat for a long time as if striving to shut out th terrible truth, When he had regained sufficlent composure, he maid that he' had no idea that he was wuffering from leprosy, All the wa from Honolula he had ever; lopa of belng cured. The thought that he was to be an out- oast from soclety, that he was cursed with the loathsome ot diseases, that he was to be hunted down for 1sola- tlon, appeared almost to have over- toppled his reason, He crled out that he now only wished to dle; no reasoning had the slightest effect upon his excited condition; finally he went uul.
