The Great Evil of the Times.
A Taxpayers' Defense League lias
been formed in Chicago, and the Rev.
Dr. llolbrook, one of the editors of the
Jiibliotheca Sacra , president of the
Loague, lias officially addressed an open
letter to the palace-car magnate, George
M. Pullman, who seems to be reckoned
in that region as one of the worst oifend
ers in tlio form of wrong-doing it .
Is the special work of the league to attack
and overthrow. In the central parts of
his model town, Mr. Pullman, on land
which, by his own estimate in his an- i
liual report to the stockholders, is worth
$17,000 an acre, but is really worth near
ly twice that, pays a tax on an assess
ment of only about $741 an acre, so that,
according to the rating of the league,
the Pullman corporation has been pay
ing a less amount of taxes by some $200,-
000 each year into the city treasury than
it would have done had it been assessed
as ordinary property owners are assessed
in Chicago.
Referring to the memorable strike of
1894, the damages on account of which
to the amount of $10,009,000, and in be
half of this same George M. Pullman,
rest against the city of Chicago or
against Cook county, the letter says:
All these events recall the unsympa
thetic attitude which you assumed
toward your working people in their
distress at that time, many of whom
had been in your employ for years.
You reduced their wages, but refused to
reduce their rents; you permitted many
to work just long enough to earn for
you their undiminished rent, and then
left them to provide their food and cloth
ing as best they could until another
month could come around and possibly
bring them relief. These facts came
before the grand jury, of which the
writer was a member, and there was not
a dry eye in that jury room when they
were recited. In the midst of this
trouble you left for your summer resi
dence, and let the state and federal
troops and the grand jury light your
battles.
Further, this league letter says,
speaking more generally or in sweeping
terms of the whole Pullman class of tax
shirkers:
The rights of property are now war
ring on the rights of man. Monopolies
and trusts on the necessaries of life
threaten the destruction of the state.
Capital and labor may each organize for
all lawful purposes, but when capital
corners the market on coal, iron, sugar,
oil, coffee, salt, oatmeal, and is thus able
to raise the price artificially to the con
sumer, it is a crime under the statutes of
most of our states. But men of wealth
are now doing this very tiling. They
keep the letter of the law; they violate
its spirit. They take from the poor man
a tithe of his daily food ami in return
make gifts to the public to satisfy the
conscience or to throw dust in the eyes
of the people. Society is between two
malefactors—the criminals above and
tin; criminals below; the trust magnate
in the palace and the anarchist in the
slums; the plutocrat and the mobocrat.
The so-called '"great newspapers" in
the chief cities of the country, only too
often, as many are coming to say, ap
pear disposed, with mingled sneers and
deprecation, to disparage efforts of the
character hero noted. It is observed
that they have much to say In very
dignified terms about intemperate lan
guage and all that, but the evil, as the
candid of mind perceive, is an immeas
urably serious one, that will certainly
have to be cured, and that those who
trifle with it, no loss than those who
commit it, are simply supremely danger
ous enemies of society and of tlieii
country.
Why should workingmen burn down
coal breakers and destroy their onlj
means of support? To accuse them ol
such folly Is to doubt their sanity. Have
they not hearts of flesh and blood, ant
must they not eat and sleep and have
shelter? The friction of an insurance
policy on an over-Insured, back-numbei
breaker might set it on lire, but honest
labor nu\Qr.—A*hla7id Rccvril.
An Obliging Burglar.
A despondent citizen wrote the fol
lowing leiter to a persistent burglar
who had visited his house on several
occasions. lie left the letter on the
dresser, says the Atlanta Constitution,
before retiring for the night: "To the i
Burglar—My Dear Sir: 1 trust you will
give these few lines a moment's con
sideration. You have done me the
honor to visit me three times. On these
occasions you have taken away nu
merous souvenirs of your visits. I am
now reduced to a Waterbury watch and
one pair of trousers. I need not tell you
that both are under my head. I want !
to ask you to let up on me! I know
there is no law to prevent you from
cleaning me out entirely, but I appeal
to your generosity. I have a large fam
ily to support, and I infer from your
industry that you must be a father
yourself. Consider my case, if you
please, and give me a show!" The bur
glar came that night and was evidently
touched by the letter, for lie wrote on
the margin: "I am in receipt of yours
of this date. All right; I'll letup. Do
not be discouraged; your next-door
neighbor has no trousers at all. I write
in baste, for I understand they're go
ing to seud a policeman on this beat
next year. P. S.—Your watch was 15
minutes slow, and 1 set it for you."
Two stafes are now in revolt ngainst I
the federal power. The tax cominis- !
sioners of Indiana defy on injunction
issued by Judge Baker, of the United
States district court, and proceed to
assess the property of the Indiana
Manufacturing company at the market
value of its stock. Judge Baker had
held that the patents of t-lic company, j
composing most of its property, were
not taxable, and (had accordingly en- i
joined the assessment. Now the tax
commissioners are threatened with ar
rest for contempt of court. The insur
ance commissioner of Kansas is also
defying a federal injunction restraining
him from forbidding ci New York life
insurance company, which has not
complied with state laws, to do business
in his state. Carry the news to South
Carolina.
People who are looking for hidden
treasure had better not go to Mexico.
While digging up a tree on a ranch near
Monterey, a man servant found three
earthen jars, filled with gold and silver
coin, and securing a sack proceeded to
carry it to his cabin. When the ranch
man heard of the find there was a great
time. The amount was $20,000, of
which the government took one-third;
the remaining two-thirds went to the
ranchman, axul the servant, for his
share, was given two years in prison.
This will he a warning to other treasure
finders to hurry the find across thebor-
der without delay.
It is said that the people around ;
Holly Springs, Miss., ore so delighted
with the abundant signs of returning
prosperity thait they bad a barbecue j
a few days ago to give vent't'o their joy j
over the good times. Visitors were
carried to the grove free, and the farm- (
ers and merchants were liberal in their
gifts of lamb, veal, shoat, chickens, wa- 1
termelons and the various other things '
that go toanake up the typical southern ;
feast.
In Com. v. Williams, 108 Mass., 02, a I
witness identifying a burglar by his
voice, testified that "he had a very in
teresting. manly, pleasant, smooth,
gentle, handsome voice, like that of one
born in this country of foreign parents,
a 'York State voice.'" lie heard this
pleasing voice near midnight saying:
"Keep still or you're a dead man. It
3'ou move, I'll take your heart's blood."
' "Bird In the bush" is n new viand on
America® menus. A small hole is mad.;
in the end of a watermelon and the
core scooped out. The interior is filled
with breasts of chickens, leg meat ol
squabs, Chinese mushrooms and
sprouts. Then the watermelon is
sealed up and boiled two hours. All
t.be juices are retained, and when served
the melon is plugged in the top.
John Green Brady, of Indiana, who j
lias been appointed governor of Alaska, j
bos an interesting and romantic ca
peer. To the besit of his knowledge he
is a native of New York city. lie never
knew his parents. lie grew up a ver
itable street arab in the utmost pov
erty. In 1830 he was sent to Indiana
with a car load of waifs.
In a notice of a volume of verse by a
leual writer, a Georgia editor says in
his rural newspaper: "The poems seem
io have the right jingle at the proper
end, but we are not a very good judge
of this kind of work, having tried to
make an honest living all our lives."
When the world's population exceeds
5,994,000,000, the earth will bo unable
to find nourishment for her people, and
they will be forced either to cannibal
ism or starvation. This figure will be
reached in about 2SO years, says a
scientist.
Persons who study a foreign lan
guage occasionally get. mixed up in a
word. In ordering a glass of soda wa
ter a German said: "Not much dust, if
you please." It finally appeared that
. he meant froth.
I Farther and farther woman pene
trates into fields that were supposed
to be reserved exclusively for men. A
woman editor In Connecticut lias just
escaped being tarred and feathered.

BURIED THE SNAKE.
Hon Prairie I)O:M DIMPOKCII of AN
I'.vll-DlnpoMed Reptile.
In conversation wit-ba gentleman who
lias just made a trip through western
Indian territory I picked upromething
new and interesting to me in regard to
1 t lie habits of the prairie dog and rattle
snake. This party said that a few weeks
1 ago, while resting under a small tree
in the territory where there w:is a dog i
town, he noticed a com motion among j
! some dogs near him; tliey would run
l up to a place and peep at something and j
then scamper ofF. Looking to see what j
was the matter, he saw that there were
j about 15 to 20 dogs around a rattle- j
make, which at length went into cue of
; the deg holes. As soon as he had disap- !
! pea red the little fellows began to push j
I in dirt, evidently to till the hole up. i
but about the time they got enough j
j dirt to cover the entrance the snake
I stuck his head up through the dirt and j
i every dog scampered oil to a safe dis
i tance, all the time keeping lip an in- j
I cessant barking. The snake slowly
| crawled to another hole about a rod dis
; tnnt and went in, and then up came the
i dogs again and went to work to push
I the dirt up before them to the hole,
i This time they succeeded in their euter
, prise and completely covered tlie en
| trance to the hole, and then went to
| work, using their noses to tamp with
and pounding the d' t do" n hard, nftc"
which they \uent away. My friend went
to the place and said he was surprised
to find they had packed the dirt in solid
with their r.osee, having sealed the
snake well to the ground.—Forest and

KITES PUZZLE BIRDS.
VmtiHiiic Experience* of SelentJstn
W'lille Making Experiments.
I Many amusing experiences have been
| I lie lot of the scientists who have been
| manipulating kites for scientific pur
| poses. Large birds are always Inter
ested in the strange devices floating in
I the air and cannot make out quite what
they are.
I No bird, however, has ever alighted
j on a kite or attacked one, says the Chi-
I rago News. While one scientist was
1 Hying a train kites a couple of
years ago, a silver-tipped eagle
; came suddenly out of the higher air ami
I swooped round and round the first kite,
j looking against the sunset sky like a
; huge silver ball. As the train of kites
was pulled in the eagle followed, visit
ing one kite and then another, seeming
uncertain just what to do. In a few
minutes, when he seemed to have de
cided that they were not good to eat.
; and he knew nothing about them any
way. ha indignantly flew ofT and was
lost to view.
Another experience was had with a
stork that came from the New Jersey
side of the Hudson and flew straight for
the queer object in the air. lie appar
ently had made up his mind to go
straight through it. but changed and
dived underneath. lie went around and
above it. and through a glass it could be
seen that he cocked his eye at the in
truder in a most comical manner. lie
started away a few hundred feet,
changed his mind and came swooping
hack, lie finally reluctantly vvemt
away, mystified over this queer addi
tion to the inhabitants of the air.

WHEN MOTHER LOOKS.
] 'member such a lot of things ;
That happened long ago.
When me an' Jim was six years old—
An* now we're ten or so.
Hut those that I remember best—
The ones 1 'most can see-
Are the things that used to happen
When mother looked at mo.
One time in church, when me an' Jim
Was snickerin' out loud—
The minister was prayin', an*
The people's heads was bowed—
We had the biggest kind of joke
About a bumblebee,
liut things got quiet rather quick
When mother looked at me.
And then there's some times when 1 think
I'd had such lots of fun
A-goln' in swlmmin' with the boys
Down by Jones' run,
Hut when 1 get back home again-
Just 'bout in time for tea—
There's a kind of a differ'nt feeling cornea
When mother looks at me.
That time when I was awful sick
An' the doctor shook his head,
An' ev'ry time pa come around
His eyes was wet an' red,
I 'member her hands on my face
How soft they used to be-
Somehow the pain seemed easier
'When mother looked at me.
It's funny how It makes you feel—
I ain't afraid of her,
She's 'bout tiie nicest person
You'd find most anywhere;
Hut the queerest sort of feeling.
As queer as queer can be,
Makes everything seem different
When mother looks at me.

Properly Constructed.
A great deal of time is devoted "by
every boy to makingand rigging minia
ture sailboats, although he may live
miles away from a suitable sailing pond
and not even have the opportunity of
launching them.
As the pleasure found in sailing boats
lies principally in the graceful actiou

j of the sails, the whirlgig shown in the
illustration furnishes just this same
; attractive appearance as it revolves,
! the boats following one another in
their circuit, the sails jibing gracefully
from port to starboard in exact regu-
I larity.
i The four sailboats form parts of a
j windmill. They need not be very elab
orately made; they should be cut out
j from four pieces of exactly the same
! dimensions. Make the masts and bow
: s,jrits of tough wood nod the sails of
! strong muslin, as they are likely to be
| exposed to strong wind.
I The gaffs and booms can best be|
| joined to the masts by means of screw
j eyes. The rigging must be very sim
ple and yet strong, light cord, well
waxed, being used, and the sails should
be uniformly close-hauled.
The two long cross pieces are joined
together in the center at right angles,
forming four arms of even length and
at the end of each is fastened one of the
boats; through the center of intersec
tion bore a hole large enough for the
axle, for which a long wire nail will
| answer.
The crossarms with boats attached
should be mounted on top of n pole (or
small fingstaff) by means of the axle,
which should be well lubricated. A
small washer may be placed under the
crosspieees to reduce friction.
When completed, the upright may be
set up in the center of a llower bed,
vines being trained up the pole, or may
he attached to the top of ashed or the
fence, where it will be visible from the
i windows. —Boston Globe.
lie Ate Too Muoh Candy.
An instance of the danger of over
indulgence in any favorite article is
that of a New York boy, 17 years old.
He recently went to work in his father's
confectionery store, and ate great quan
tities of candy and other sweets. He
grew very stout, increasing in weight
from 130 to 200 pounds. Then his eye
sight failed him, and a specialist said
that the blindness was caused by a con
dition of his stomach resulting from
eating too much candy. The boy now
refrains from eating candy, and will
recover his sight.

THE HOME DOCTOR.
To remove liver spots and cure wind
dyspepsia and constipation take the
phosphate of sodium for three months,
a teaspoonful in a teacupful of hot
water two hours after meals.
The large sweet omion is rich in those
alkaline elements which counteract the
poison of rheumatic gout, if slowly
stewed in weak broth and eaten with
a little cayenne pepper, it is said to be
an admirable article of diet for people
of studious and sedentary habits.
Potatoes, rice, oatmeal, wheat bread,
biscuits, ,pastry, barley, tapioca, corn
starch and corn meal are "starchy
£oods." The starches should be ex
eluded from the dietary when one suf
fers from "torpidity of the liver or con
stipation." The starchy foods furnish
potential energy and are fat producing.
Dr. Burton Word declares there is
one infallible symptom indicating
whether one is sane or not. Let a per
son speak ever so rationally and net
ever so sedately, if his or her thumbs
remain inactive there is no doubt of in
sanity. Lunatics seldom make use of
their thumbs when writing, drawing or
saluting.
One of the best cosmetics for bicycle
riders or persons upon the water is
fresh cucumber juice. This will aid in
keeping the skin of the face soft and
smooth. To extract the juice from a
cucumber, first peel it and thon cut it
into thick slices and press the juice out
with a lemon squeezer. A simple and
harmless remedy for sunburn is to
loathe the face in buttermilk.
HOUSEHOLD HINTS.
Medicine stains on silver may be re
moved by rubbing the article with a
rag dipped in sulphuric acid. Finally
wash in warm soapsuds.
A simple but useful home remedy for
burns and scalds can be made<by mixing
as much prepared chalk wifth pure lard
as will make a thick ointment. Apply
direct to the wound and cover with
lint and a bandage.
A process for toughening glasses that
can be very simply followed at home is
to'immerse the glasses in a large vessel
full of cold water; place this upon the
fire; let the water reach boiling poiut
and, having taken off the pan, let the
glass remain in until the water has
grown cold once more. This is a very
effective method of annealing glass.
Dissolve half an ounce of camphor in
one pound of lard; take off the scum;
then stir in as much black lead as will
give the mixture a dark hue; rub iron
and steel stoves and grates over with
this preparation; let it remain on for a
day, and finally dry off with a cloth.
The metal will then keep clean and
bright for a longtime.
It occasionally becomes neeessary to
remove the -traces of writing from pa
per, and, tio make the operution suc
cessful, prepare a solution of muriia'teof
tin, two drachms; and wa'ter, four
drachms. Apply this with a soft paipt
brush, and, when the writing has faded
away, hold the jwuper under running
water for a few minutes, and then dry
between fresh blotting paper.
