The robin that had been watching her out of the cor ners of his bright eyes, ad he run over the lawn and listened to her prattle, was asleep already, with his head under hits wing, and Ketie's head hung heavily on her mother's shoulder while she was un drein(f her. "So I lay me" had been s-ii.', with many yawns in between, and mamma's pet hail been tucked in snugly ; but just as the 6leepy eyes were closing, she suddenly sat bolt upright.

"Hash Katie," said her mother the least bit wearily, for the little feet and the little tongue had never ceased going one moment all day. "Now we will go to sleep." "But mamma," and the big eyes pleaded earnestly, "cant I have Johnny's picture book this onst ?" "Not to-night, dearie ; it is too late."

The Colonel s Carriage.; A week ago yesterday Colonel Gilker son's new carriage came home. It was a stylish affair throughout and looked as comfortable as a government sinecure, but Mrs. Oilkerson wasnt satisfied. Sbe didn't offer any criteisms at first, but threw out gf ntie hints about some addi tions that might be made and some points of difference between it and some other swell turnouts she had seen. The colonel w as rather proud of the vehicle, as it had been built for him and was in some minor respects constructed in acco rdance w ith ideas of his own. He felt a little nettled at the remarks of his better half, and finally Btated with un necessary circumlocution that he would like to know what in thunder she want ed anyway. "Angelina and I have been UlkiDg it all over," said the good lady insinuating ly, "and have decided that we want a crest on it like Angelina has on her sta tionery." "You Lave, have ye?" snorted the colonel. "Not by a jugful, Maria! I want no such infernal British nonsense on no rig that I'm a-goin' to ride in." Maria used ail her persuasive powers and Angelina seconded the motion in an able and eloquent address, but all to no purpose. The female side of the house insisted and tried to press the matter to a Tote, but the colonel filibustered and avoided the issue. "You was a working girl when I mar ried you," said he, "and I was a w ork ingman." Finally, however, he yielded, and the carriasre was sent back. Yesterday it came home again and the colonel told the "women folks" to get ready for a drive. They were waiting when John drove up to the door and the colonel started to help them in. Both looked for the crest and both started back with crit-s of dismay. Then they looked at the old man. He was gazing at the sky with !a peculiar expression about Lis mouth. Maria and Angelina began to weep and went back into the house. The colonel pressed his lips together, entered die carriage and paraded np and down Wood ward avenue hall the after noon, while paaer by smiled at a de sign representing a shovel, an ax, a broom and a flatiron. When he got home at 4::i0 Maria met him in the hallway and said she had concluded that the carriage looked better w ithout a crest, and the colonel. steMiine to the door, tailed to John to "drive 'erbaik to the shop an tell 'era to take off the frills."

The Democratic House sent a com niittee to Homestead with hope of mak ing a showing of distress and poverty among the laborers in protected in dustries. They hoped to show that I workmen in protected industries get no bene (it from a protective tariff. But they will not show that. What they found was workmen get ting from f 1.40 a day (the lowest rate, and that only to a few) up to as high as flC per day. There were men offered I-1,000, f-',j00, $:;,f.iH)and even $),000 per annum, and working about 270 days in tbe year and yet they had learned to feel and believe, under tie experience o'a protective tariff, that they oueht to have more. No wonder Congressman Bynam, Democrat, of Indiana, and a member of the committee, inquired with some show of eagerness whether there was a chance for him to secure a position in tbe works. When Hugh VDonneU, the leader of the strikers, was on the stand, Mr. Boatner (Democrat, of Louisiana,) asked him : " You are one of the skilled workmen, are you not ?" . " Yes, sir." " About what were your wsges?" " About $144 per month." John McLuckie, a member of the Amalgamated Association and a burgess of Homestead, complained to the com mittee that the McKinley law reduced the tariff on steel billeU, and that wages, therefore, began to go down with tbe price of steel billets after its passage. He advanced the somewhat extraordinary opinion that the securing of the reduction of tariff on steel billets was part of a conspiracy to reduce the wages of work ingnian. He also charged that the com pany "shortly converted the Duquesne works into a billet plant, increased the production, flooded the country so that prices may be reduced, and thus affect our wages. The Duquesne produces large amount of billets." This w ould seem to account better for the reduction in the price of steel billets than tbe removal of the tariff. KcpresenUtive Uates, of Alabama, the Democratic chairman of the Democratic committee of investigation, was inter viewed after he returned from Homestead and said : "That the workmen at Home stead were far shove the average in in telligence and seemed to be fairly prosperous, living in good, comfortable houses. He saw none of the poverty common in great manutacturing centres. Many of the meu, particularly the skilled workmen, made good wages, some of them as high as f-'75 per month. Others made only $j0 per month. The com mon laborers earned from f I to $1-50 a day. "As Mr. Frick had positively declined to disclose to the committee the cost per ton of producing steel billets at the Homestead mills, Mr. Oates could not say whether the contention of the men that the company was making a great dealofmonyat the present prices was true or not. He was satisfied, however, that the allegation of the men that the company had purposely produced an overstock of steel billets in order to reduce the scale of wages of the workmen was untrue." Blatant demagogues have spread many lying reports of the misery, poverty and degradation of the workmen at Home stead, and Democratic politicians have been quick to take up these reports and glory in them as showing the calmity of a protective tari ff. But the day has gone by w hen lies of this sort can befool tb people. The country is not prepared to judge finally on ths merits of the striker's quarrel at Homestead. But that the wages they have been getting and the waees thev are offered are such as would leave them in the helpless and poorly paid condition of laboring men it Europe and Great Britin is proved not to be true out of the mouths of the strikers and the Democrats themselves. America's Birthday. Wasbisutos, July '11. The following proclamation, malting txtober '11 a gen era! holiday, was issued by the President to-day : Whereax, Py a joint resolution approved June 1-Jl. it was resolved by the Senate and Houie of Kepreentttlives of the I'nited t-'Jatei of America in t'oiigre3 assembled "that the President of the Fuited States be authorized and directed lo iue a proclama tion reomniending to the people the obst-i vance in all their localities of the four hundredth anniversary of tbe discovery of America, on the "1st day of October, lii'J, by public demonstration and by suitable ex ercises in their schools and other places of assembly." Now, therefore, I Benjamin Harrison, President of the United Slates of America, in pursuance of the aforesaid joint resolution, do lu rtby apioiut Friday, October 2t, lSUi, the four hundredth anniversary of the discovery of America by Columbus, as a general holiday for the -wo'ile of the United Stales. On that day let the people, so far as possible, eta from toil and devote them, selves to such excercises as may best express honor to the discoveier and their appreci ation of the great achievements of the four completed centuries of American life. Columbus stood in bis aire as the pioneer of progress and enlightenment. The system of universal education is in our. age the most pro niinent and salutory feature of the spirit of enlighteoment, and it is peculi- ra!y appropriate that the schools be made by the people the center of the day's demon stration. IM the National ffig float over every school bou?e in the country, and the exercises be such as shall impress upon our youth the patriotic dutita of American cit'zenslijp. In the churches and in tbe other places of assembly of the op!e let there be expres sions of gratitude to Divine Providence for tbe devout Lulh of the discoverer and for the divine care and guidance which has di rected our history and so abundantly bsed our people.

The attorney prosecuting in a breach of promise suit waa youthful and fresh and delighted in allowing himself off, but he did not know what a guy he was until it fell on him with a dull and sick ening thud. The defendant had taken the stand. "Yon say," said the attorney, after several impertinent questions "that you never asked the plaintiff to be your wife?" "Sever," responded the witness, with emphasis. "But yon made love to her." Xot to my know ledge." " Never called her pet names either, I appose ?" " So, sir." " Now, as a matter of fact, didn't you call her Lizzie after you had been to see her three or four times and always aftei that, when yon knew you should have called her Miss Smith, if you had not been seeking to win her young and trust ing heart?" " No, sir, I did not." The pliintiff pulled the attorney's sleeve, but he paid no attention to her. " Ah, indeed," very sarcastically. "I presume you never called her Lizzie in your life?" " I never did, sir." Again the plaintiff caught at the attor ney, but he ignored her. "Xow, once more, sir. I ask you di rectly to state to the court whether you did or did not call this young htdy by the endearing name of Lizzie, ltemem ber, sir, you are on your oath," and the attoney reared back in his chair, while the plaintiff made another ineffectual clutch at him. Tbe defendant smiled slightly. "I never did," he said, firmly. 'The attorney sat forward with a sharp crack of the chair-legs on the floor. "I'd like to know why you never did, sir?" he asked, with the air of a man who knew he had the facts. "Because," and the witness was as cool as a palm leaf fan could make him in June, "because that wasn't her name." Then it waa the attorney heeded the plaintiff's wild clutching and wanted to hit himself in the neck with a law book, but it was everlastingly too late. De troit Free I'r t. Bucklen s Arnica Salve.

There is only one term that describes the persistent Democratic assertion, that the trouble at Homestead is due to "starvation wages." It is falsehood, as deliberate as it is maglignant. The proposed change in the payment of wages at the Carnegie mills, while it would undoubtly slightly reduce the wages of some of the employes, would maintain those of tbe great majority at their present high standard. In some cases eni an actual advance in pay would be then suit. The leader of the strikeis, llagb O'Djnnel, admits that the proposed clianges would effect only about Z15 men out ofi.Si'O; and tbe fact that the strikers do not con sider tbe proposed changes in rales of ay meut a serious one is shown by their offer to accept the company's sliding scale of wages, if the company wiil waive its de mand for the transference of the date fiar siguing the wage schedule from June 50 to December 31. Tbe table of wages paid in tbe Homestead mills was recently printed by The Vm. It showed that in the slabbing mill skilled heaters have been earning $6 37 per day, and that under tbe new arrangement proposed by the company their minimum wages with steel billets selling at $23 per ton- would be io.CT per day ; that under the pro jected plan the lowest wages of a screw man would be $.4l a day ; that the lowest wages of the worker known as heaters' first helpers would be $4.75 daily ; and that in tbe plate miils. where rollers bad earned $n.ul, screw -men $"., tablemen $ and first shear man $H Cti per day of twelve hours, the re duction in tbe wages paid -r 10U tons, even if the minimum point in the sliding n-ale was to be tbe constantly determining factor, would be slight. To speak of men earning from $4.7- to $9 per day as "starving labor ers is the height or absurdity. Into the question whether the changes in payment and date of wage schedule called for by the Homestead managers were justi fiable and wise The Prta does not propose to enter. What it desires to do is to stamp as malicious falsehoods the reports circulat ed by unscrupulous Democratic organs in regard to the rate of wages paid at Home stead. At their lowest possible figure, with steel billets selling at $23 per ton, the wages of Homestead workmen would be more than twice as high as those paid to similar classes or labor in free trade Great Britain.
