The Tariff Debate.
Mr. Randall, whose speech has been
awaited with great Interest as indicating
hU final action en the revenue legislation,
does net fully satisfy the general curl curl
eslty. He devoted himself te an expesl
tkra of his views upon the tariff and te a
Vindication of his own bill te reform it.
He declared that ha was in favor of the
protective Policy and that he did net
agree with all the views of the president ,
but he also declared that he desired te
I.m - 1.i.awIa hMah Ihnn wen vnilltei1 I

rf nnr m tin 11. I
facturea with these of foreign ceuntiles,
aad se showed that his intent was the
same as that of his party and the same
that is the basis of the ways and means
committee's bill. The difference be
tween Mr. Randall and the majority or
bis Democratic associates Is practically
in the estimates made as te the amount
et the duties needed for the adequate
protection that both sides favor. The
theoretical free trade and the theoretical
protection advocates meet en this common
ground, and there is geed reason te expect
that an agreement may be i cached between
them by the exercise of a fair amount of
mutual concession and geed sense. Tlie
prtsdent'd expression from which Mr.
Randall dissents, gees much farther In
approval et theoretical frce tnule than
does the practical measure which has
been introduced into CengreEB by Mr.
Mills and the passage of which the Pres Pres

and free trade theorists. The universal
.admission is that the pretective policy
cannot new be abandoned. The univer
sal desire is that the protection of the
tariff shall ba ample for all industries.
Ne sensible Democrat proposes te enact
his frea trade theories into n law that
hall let in foreign products at a price at
which the home product cannot be pro
duced, when there is such a home pro
duct new being produced.
The difference is wholly in detail.
-Seme want tin plates free because none
are made here ; ethers want a duty en
them that they may be made ; the result
probably will be that the duty levied will
net be large enough te cause their manu
facture here, but will be great enough te
prevent their importation te take the
placj et sheet iron that is made here.
The debate en the general bill has be
IS-eeme very Interesting as it closes, the

ways and means bill are discussed, prier
te the vote taken upon them. Tiicre
seems te be a disposition en the
part et the Democratic majority,
te listen te all suggestions made
la amendment et the bill, nnd witli
such inclinatien'the final action upon dis
puted clauses Is likely te be conciliatory
and the result such ns te obtain
ft full party vote for the bill. There
is no reason te believe that there
will be any unreasonable position
taken by any Democrat. Xe ene can be
expected te vote for a measure that lie 13
sure will be a positive injury te the
business interests et the country
bat the disposition of Democratic
.members te support n bill that

te be strong enough te overcemo any
opinion that they may have that amounts

eentracU and li required te take the re
possibility that these latter aie faith
fully fulfilled. When proper advertise
ment has been made for sites, an agent
of the government is sent te examine the
lets offered and recommend the one
which he deems most suitable. lie then
reports te the supervising architect, who
latum reports and recommends te the
Secretary of the treasury, who authorizes
the purchase of the site, provided the
title te the same is unquestioned. This
latter feature is referred te the atternev
a general's department for investigation.

under the direction of the supervising

When completed the building is ex

that the plans and specifications have
been complied with, turns the building

government officials te occupy the same
and who serves without compensillen.
Te some people this may seem a very
tedious preces?, but the wisdom of it
must quickly be admitted. Great bodies
move slowly and In an Important pro
ject of this kind, it is proper that the
government should have perfect assur
ance that overythlng is right before pro
ceeding te an outlay of money. It Is te
be hoped that some public spirit will be
shown in the matter of selecting a site
for the bulldlwr. The government should
be treated fairly, and the citizens with eli
gible property should remember that what
is saved en the site will add te the beauty
et the building. Chattanooga, Tennessee,
with a-$200,000 building, had a Bite dona dena

A JinUterlum.
Ot the three boys who were suddenly
dropped into the swift Conestoga wttli
Professer McCaskey, net one knew
hew te swim. Doubtless tnaiy have re
marked this singular fact, but it lsn
question whether a third of the boys of
Lancaster are swimmers, simply because
they have net much chance te learn the
art. Lancaster badly needs n first-class
swimming school, and nny man of enter
prise who should establish here an insti
tution et the character of the l'hiladel
phla Nataterlum, would be sure of buc
ccs In the busluess venture, and
worthy of thanks as a public benefactor.
Such an enterprise would be wer.hy 01
the hearty co-operation of the Athletic
club, nnd the whole building could be
given te athletic training in the winter.
In the Philadelphia building the first
two Meets nre devoted te the swimming
bath nnd dressing rooms, while the third'
Is fitted up as a gjinnaslum,and is also
surrounded by dressing rooms. In winter
the tank is floored ever, and the whole
three stories are available for daucing,
club rooms or gymnastics. The enter
pilslng young men et this city who have
undertaken te establish swimming ponds
near town, are worthy of all praise, but
Lancaster ought te have a swimming
school in a central nnd convenient posi
tion, where boys and men could take a
ten minute plunge without wasting a hair
hour in a Journey te the water. The
morning hours could be devoted te
women, and the early morning, afternoon
and evening te men.
A philanthropist could hardly find n
better object for investment, for there is
no brancii et physical education mere
worthy of encouragement. Swimming
cultivates and strengthens net only the
muscles but the character et the man. It
trains him te self-reliance, presence of
mind, and a rational and calm but quick
consideration of any danger that he may
have te face.

Ne rtesnt book haa been better heralded
than Ibli ponderous work el Jgnatlue Don Den
nelly te eitablish tnat Hbakeapeare did net
write the playa and sonnet ascribed te blm
for mere than three hundred year, but
tint they were written by Francis Bacen.
It la a very logenlem book, but can bardly
be Raid te be lugenaeu. It baa two
grand divisien: Boek I, the Argu
ment and Boek II tbe Demonstration.
Tbe first deal with Sbakeipeare's origin
and rehearaea all the mean thing that were
ever said el tbe Bard of Aven or any mem
ber of hi family. In thla Mr. Dennelly
dltplaya raore malignity than should go
toward the o3mpeltion of a oenaolentlou
critic. In hi csat te ptove tbe Bud f
Aven a beer, be ehargea that hi parents
were very unclean of bablt and ware com
plained against therefer, nut be does tint
ahew tbe cbanged sanitary condition of the
nineteenth ever tbe sixteenth century.
Ner doe be ey whether auobebarges were
com men. Whether they were tbe result of
Individual malignity, or whether Ibey
were, a some modern munlelpal tax liens
are, directed agalmt peeple of comlettable
estate Mr. Dennelly In bl determination
te say nothing geed et 8bakepeare rairer
overdoes tbe work nf saying everything
that is bad.
Alter an ex'enslvn treatlsn In thti direc
tion or tbe impossibility etany vulgar char
acter sueh as Htiakespearc, being the author
et these world-renowned play", we are
troated te an exposition of tbe claim that
Baeen wrnte them. Tnern I enme poetry
put forward, whlnb Dennelly hlmaellnnem
net certain that Usccin wrote. Then Jme
reason fellow wliv anonymity was desired
by Bacen, and tun balance el Boek I 1
made up of parallelisms In which there are
some remarsable Id entitle or thought, but
net mere than might be explained by the
faet that Hhakeipeare and Bioen were liter
ary contemporaries. Kven In these, as are are are
osntcrllle obaerve, tbe compirlien always
shows the Htiakespoare (notation superior ;
and It Is net easy te huppen that Bacen
could always he holding back his prettiest
thought for a book whle'i w net te bear
his name, and whesn Identity with which
was only te bs dlacoverod by a most Intri
cate cipher.
It Is In this liUtcr depirttrimit et tbe book,
whom Mr. Dennelly attern pi te establish
n cipher that we think hi cause very weak.
It would be ImposMble In thin hrlet revlew
te take tbe 1nti:i,m(ii:nei'.h leader
ibreuiih thla labyrinthine mux Mr. Don Den
nelly innja te 11 ud In etcli piny a cipher te
the erTtfet that Bacen was Iho author thereof.
He his n rorleB et root numbers, ei' 'f
which thnatorvurewn. aud wuleh are M.
500, 613, B10, 623. Ttoae "are the product
of multiplying rerlnlu llgureH In the first
column el page 7-1 by rertaln ether ilgurea."
The explanation glvnq no key, there are
"modifying numbers" aud ihe count may
be made In any direction te reach tbe do de
aired word. In ether word, thndefnndant
Is presumed guilty and overy dlert lamade
te xcluda the pejalhlllty et his Innoeonce.
But though Mr. Dennelly Is color-blind
en everythlug portalnleg te llteratnre In

asorlbe te Baren tbe BUthermilp of Mar

" lightly turns te thoughts of "Challis.
The splendid assortment of stuffs ;' new and big lets ; offered
las.t week, are as yet unbroken. They are worthy your careful
examination. We repeat a few of the choicest :
. Scotch Surah Ginghams at 25, from 40c.
Scotch Zephyr Checked Ginghams at 25, from 40 cents.
French Beige Plaids at 50, from 75 cents, and 60 cents, from
$'. ... ....
All-wool Mixes at 25 cents, and the diagonals at 25 cents,
from 45.
Just fractions of Dress Goods thoughts there, but texts for
volumes.
MILLINERY.
The breath of Summer is en the Trimmed Millinery corner.
One of the busiest places in the store. Always busy ; cold or
warm, wet or dry, there is always something doing in the Milli
nery. Reason why : there is never a let up in the assortment.
Ours is net an opening stock, simply ; big at the first of the sea
son and then tapering off te next te nothing. Our designers and
trimmers are in the centres of fashion constantly seeking new
thoughts. The freshness of Eastern enthusiasm is undaunted.
The new ideas for the close-by months are full of sparkle and
brightness. Nevel features, free handling cf material ; dainty
little touches that make all the difference between commonplace
and brilliancy.
At the Flower and Ribbon counters in the " untrimmed "
section you can catcli the drift of popular taste. Take Straw
Goods. The new things are crowding and jostling one another
for recognition. Many of the shapes have a half familiar leek ;
many ethers are audaciously new and unconventional.
Rough-and-Readies, of course. They have come te stay.
Yeu knew their jaunty, sunshiny, cheerful faces. Everybody
likes them. New kinks and twists te some, and such a variety
of shapes and colors as you've never seen before. 25 te 50c.
Thirteenth and Chestnut streets.
BOOKS.
What we are doing in Beeks te-day is about what we are
doing every day ; every proper Boek here (or we will get it),
and big lets with the prices tapered well toward the vanishing
point.
Makers of Beeks are every new and then getting as far
ever their heads as are makers of Dress Goods, or Shoes, or
anything else. They welcome any help that pulls them out or
lightens their lead. That is what makes se many extra-interest
ing prices all around the store.

ICE APPLIANCES.
De you realize hew necessary Ice has become te our sum
mer-comfert ? We have made
hinge en the summer treatment et Ice in the Household. An ob
ject-lessen in unseasonable frigidity as seen from the home angle.
Yeu may see all these appliances huddled around a pyramid of
Kennebec Ice near the Ceramic Art Roem. Put this and that
together and the Refrigerator, the Cream freezer, the Water
Coeler become possibilities facts. Yeu see about that pile of
Ice the things wis have selected from all the world as the best for
their several uses. They are but a hint of the half acre of like
things in the Basement and a reminder of the many simple ways
there are of bringing Ice into your service.
What Refrigerator? Yeu shall cheese. The Puritan we
knew is first class. It makes the air pure, cold and dry. It har
bors no bad smells ; gathers no dampness. What is " dead air "
space in some Refrigerators, or sawdust stuffed in ethers, is filled
with Charcoal in the Puritan. And the Puritan is said te be a
yery little ice-eater. Puritan prices Sideboard porcelain tank,
