A Man In the linns.
He wns Jim among the boys, Jeems to
liis grandfather, Jimmy to hi mother,
James to his father and "Hub" to his
sisters. Ho thought if the time ever
came when he would be Mr. there could
bo no greater happiness beyond, says an
exchange.
His father overlooked him, bis mother
coihlleil him, his sisters snubbed him,
but there came a day when ho bad his
revenge,
Tho day was like any other ordinary
day to the rest of the world, but to our
James it wns tho dawning of u new era.
If anybody has said that before, the
writor forgives them.
The family were seated at t'io break
fast table when James plunged down
stairs, opened the door of the breakfast
room and threw this bomb ia among
them :
"There's a man in the bouse t"
"Goodness grncious me!" gasped Ids
mother, running to liido in the china
closet.
"Where is he?" gasped the sisters,
craw ling under the table.
"D o-n-'t b-e g-e-e-s-et" chattered tho
father. "Wdi-o-'s a-f-r-a-i-d?" and he
seized the carving-knife, and rose to the
occasion.
Meanwhile James had kept on to tho
kitchen, where he continued shouting.
"There's a man in the bouse!"
"Lawd a massy, we'ge be all killed
dend!" quavered the cook.
Then she rushed out and shouted "Po
lice!" aud soon she had the patrol w'.igon
at the door.
"Where's tho man ?" inquired the min
ion of the law when he had bpen iiv
formed that there was a man in the
house.
"Here," cried James, as ho winked at
I. is frightened family. "I am twenty
ono years old to-day, and it I ain't a man,
I'd like to know who is?"

It was an ugly baby, but she did not

hut thu father had dark misgivings.
His Hillary was only $13 pur weuk and
babies are expensive luxuries.
Her father Was rich but he had frowned
upou their union, aud had heterodox
utid heretical notions as to supporting a
son iudaw beside.
Cruel old man.
- One day, when the baby was about a
month old, the father came home from
his desk and found his wife radiant.
She was even Imppy when the baby
was out of ber sight.
"What is it, Joiiuie?" asked hor bus
band gloomily, for he was yet uncertain
as to the blessings coufened by the
baby.
He was also sleepy,
"Oh. Charlie," she chirruped, "I heard
from papa to-day."
Charlie looked gloomier than ever.
"Don't say anything, dear," she
pleaded, for she kuew her husband's
opinion of her father. "He has heard of
our baby, aud though lie has Dot yet de
termined to forgive us, lie has sent us a
check for $5,000 for dear baby's sake."
At first tho young husband's face
showed a gleam of pteaure, thou it shad
owed ngaiu.
"Aren't you glad, Charlie?" she asked
with a quivering lip.
Then he smiled joyfully,
"Yes, darling," he whispered, "but we

Expansive Fishing.
"There's u good deal iu knowing just

said a west side mau one morning,
"This thing of sitting along tho river

"Where Is the best fishing?" asked the
Columbus Post reporter,
"Well, the Lew Is ton reservoir is a good
place if you understand fishing. By the
WHy, did you hear of Pete Dorger's lish
iug excursion down there?"
"No."
"Well, Peter took a party down there
in wagons. Petf r knows all about fish
ing aud they went well 6UppUd with
grub aud bad a fine time,"
"Any luck?"
"I should say! They went in heavy.
They had $33 worth of groceries, $.10 in
money and other perquisites. They
packed and shipped everything, using $3
worth of ice, paying $3.75 express
charges, ultliough they had five wagons
along. There were thirty-eight peoplo
along and the whole catch wus shipped
to Columbus."
"What did it nmount to?" eagerly
nnkud the reporter.

IT HAS CAUSED A DECREASE OF
EXPORTS OF FARM PRODUCTS.

It wart Mr. Blaine's prediction that the
McKinlpy would not open a mai kpt
lor a ningle barrel of pork or bushel of
wheat. It lias been shown that even
with tho reciprocity amendment the
Market for breadstuff is falling off, and
tho mime titory is true of most of our
beef und hog products and of our butter
utid cheese.
Not only is reciprocity not helping the
farmer to a larger market, but the nat
ural increase of exports of his products,
tho increnso that was going on before
the McKinley bill wns conceived, lias
been stopped and a decrease has tlreu
its place.
The fullowitig table shows the growth
in exp-irts of tho principal nrticles of
provisions in the twenty years from 1S70
to lyOU:

Hi.cf prnilucfi llo,l.rd.(l a.",.tkVi.::i.1
lJairy products lll.tM.tjO ti,S.I.7dU
Thero was a falling off in hog and
dairy products, while tho increase in tho
value of beef products was about !fo.
000,(100 less than was demanded by the
normal rate of increase prevailing for
Iho twenty year? between 1870 and 1800.
This general decline of the business of
exporting provisions continues. The
official returns for September are now
before us, and they are anything but
satisfactory to tho fanner who has been
basing his hopes on tho reciprocity pro
visions of the McKinley law.
Tho following table shows the quanti
ties of certain dairy beef and hog prod
ucts exported in September, 18'J1, and
September, 1802:
iwe. iMii.
Cattlo (No.) U0,540 SUJM
lUgn (No.) 4tir SS7
Hi:cf, canned (lbs.) 0.119,7 O.IOO.t.M

Mutter (lbs.) 1,7K3,8S4 l.tmi.ltm
Cheese (lbs.) 7.U33.7S4 8.815,073
The decline has been so long continued
that it has reduced tho total exporta
tion of some of these articles for the
eleven months ending Sept. 30, as the
following table will show:
1H02. iwi.
Canned bocf (lbs.) 70.).,),4(11 87.1W..I40
Salt beet (lbs.) (U.t;-S,.'il7 T3.t.t7,4LJ
llainsdba.) 74,44,1,514 70.M2.4riI
Tho statistics for dairy products are
made tip fur live months only, but they
show that in that period, ending Sept.
30, 1802, tho exports of butter were less
by 3, 500,000 pounds than for the corre
sponding period of Ps)l.
Now as to tho prices. Tho exports of
cattlo increased in number, but the aver
age price per head in 1802 was about
sixty-eight dollars and in ISOt about
eighty-eight dollars, while, notwith
standing tho higher price of cans, tho
prico of canned beef remained about tho
samo. Salted meat brought 5 cents in
1892 and a little more than 5-g cpnts in
1891. Hogs brought 7.72 in 1892 and
$0 in 1891. Fresh meat brought Hl4
cents iu 1892 and X cents in 1891.
This is tho showing wade by the offi
cial statistics of tho operation of jug
handled reciprocity on the business of
exporting provisions. It is a noteworthy
fact that The Tribune has finally come
to tho sago conclusion that it was not
the McKinley law that waB responsible
for tho largo exportations of breadstuff
in 1891, but the large crop at home and
the short crops abroad. It reaches tho
further conclusion also that the largo
crop is accountable for tho fall in prices.
If the McKinley law cannot overcome
such simple and fundamental laws of
nature, what good is it to the farmer?
Was the act not intended to beat tho
laws of nature? And is not the farmer
taxed on his clothes and other neces
saries of lifo in order that the prices of
his crops may advance?
Tho Tribune is resorting to the law of
nature, not by way of returning to a
sound mind, but to reconcile the farmer
to the loss of his export trade. But what
can bo its explanation of this decline in
provisions? There was no unusual crop
of bacon, beef, butter and clucso in
1891. On the contrary, it has been shown!
that with tho exception of beef the ex-'
ports of these articles fell off from 1890
to 1891, while as to beef tho increase of"
exports was not up to the normal.
The truth is that the reciprocity clause
has not helped the farmer to a foreign
market for any of his products, and the
pretense that it does help him is nothing
more nor less than gross ignorance or
arrant lying. New York World.
No Wuuder Cooley Changed.
It is difficult to imagine how even par
tisan blindness could fail to recognize in
Judge Cooley's writings and teachings
a spirit of deadly hostility to the tyran
nical and unlawful taxes levied by
means of the McKinley tariff. Iu order
to identify this eminent statesman with
Republicanism as now understood it
would first become necessary to obtain
from him an authoritative declaration
