The American Newspaper Publishers' Association lias prepared a lengthy paper in favor of admitting paper and pulp to tliis country free of duty. The association is composed of tlie most prominent publishers in the United States, irrespective of political atlina tions, and their protest is one which must sooner or later receive attention from congress. Below are a few ex tracts from the paper, which, as a whole, is one of the best refutations of the protection theories that a non partisan organization lias ever laid be fore a president. In giving reasons win paper and pulp should be admitted free, this association lias shown that mon opoly is the logical sequence of protec tion. Speaking of the paper trust, it says: in January, 181)8, all the big and pro fitable paper mills of the United States, with a few unimportant exceptions, were merged into the International Paper Company, a combination that absorbed twenty-four mills, producing about 80 per cent of the entire American output. This corporation, or trust, was capital ized upon a basis of 355,000,000. "The organizers of the trust frankly admitted at the outset that its common stock represented no investment, yet a dividend of 1 per cent on the common stock was declared in November, pay able December 31, 1808. This common stock is now selling in Wall street at 00. j A circular based upon information furn ished by officers of the International Paper Company showed that in July the trust was making a profit of 310 a ton on its output. "The entire output of this corporation, representing 1,420 tons a day for theo retical capacity, could be reproduced by a present investment of $15,000,000, so that the American consumers of newspapers are forced to pay dividends upon an inflated and wholly fictitious valuation of at least $40,000,000. "Immediately after the organization of the trust it raised the price of paper wherever possible. In three cases it raised its price 310 a ton, and has aver aged an increase of 35 a ton on its daily output of 1.420 tons, equalizing an in creased tax of $2,130,000 per annum upon the newspapers of the country, which now pay a total exceeding $20.- 000,000 per annum for their paper supply. Every increase of u quarter ol a cent a pound in the price of news paper adds $34,000,000 to the value of the trust securities." Whenever a gigantic trust inserts itself into American economics it may lie regarded as evidence that the product it proposes to control no longer requires the alleged fostering care of the protec tive tariff. The principle of tariff pro tection for infant industries cannot be contorted into governmental connivance in promoting trusts. The prohibitory tariff of $0 per ton on printing paper and the excessive tax of $1.07 per ton on pulp ought in the interests of the people and the perpetuity of the good faith the. administration party owes tin people, be repealed without argument and without delay. The duties on those articles, under existing conditions, amounts to a tax pure and simple, not upon luxuries, but upon actual neces sities. The existence of a inonoply is irrefutable evidence that such is a fact. There is no room for doubt. The gov ernment stands in the light of a con spirator against the interests of the peo ple until the appeurence of its conniv ance is removed. The volunteer firemen of Pennsylvania hold notable annual gatherings, and sustain the strength of their organiza tions, notwithstanding there are so many of the state towns that do not show a proper appreciation of this class of men, who labor gratuitously and at times arduously for the protection of property interests. There are actually communities in which councils will quib ble over paying the running expenses of these serviceable companies—until after a big lire quickens the sense of council manic understanding.— Phila.

MAGICBITOFSILVER ! "I want to ask you a question, Go ! mez." "Well, my dear boy, what is it?" "Where did you get your money?" He looked at me thoughtfully, and knocked the asn froth his cigar. "Where Hid I get my money?" he repeated slow- ! ly. 'And what says Dame Rumor con cerning it, Pedro?" "There are all sorts of stories," I re plied; "some probable, some wildly im possible; some good-humored, more ill natured. You will pardon my frank ness if I tell you that 1 have heard some people call your wealth 'ill-gotten gains,' whisper of tetired highwaymen, and the like. Th -re are others who hint darkly at counterfeiting. Among the lower classes there is a widespread belief that you have sold yourself to the devil. And I hsve even met intelli gent people who hinted at supernatural means." j "Perhaps they w sre right," was his laconic reply. I stared at him. "Listen, and you .nay perhaps tell me whether the meant, were supernatural 'or no. I have never been able to de cide. The reason tf.,at the source of my fortune has never jeen discovered was because the only n;an who knew of it left the city the day after —" He paused. "The day after v.hat?" 1 queried. He lit a fresh cigar and then began. "You knew me two years ago, when 1 was poor, lou also knew, as did all my friends, that 1 had a passion for 'gaming. You would all of you chorus, | when speaking of me. 'Poor Bonillu! He has the worst o{ vices—he is a des perate gambler.' You w.ere all wrong. I did not play simply for love of it. I played because I was poor. "One evening 1 was feeling unusually blue. I never dm ;k, as you know — i that is, never to excess —and certainly never to do what is called 'drowning sorrow.' ivly resources was the gaming table. Unfortunately 1 had in my pos session a considerable sum of money, which had been intrusted to me by a friend for the purpose of paying some debts; he had been suddenly called away from the city. I entered the gambling hell, and seated myself at the roulette table. Fortune was against me; the few duros that belonged to ine were soon gone. Something seem ed to possess me that night; I was not myself. I did what I never should have dreamed myself capable of doing—l staked my friend's money. I staked it, and I lost it all." I was about to speak. "Do not condemn me," he interrupt ed; "you could say nothing severer than were my sell-reproaches. Long I sat there, glaring at the other play ers. As I watched the ivory hall spin round, my brain seemed to spin round, too. My sense seemed to be leaving me. I felt as if life were no longer :lear to me. Penniless and dishonored, what was there left to live for? "As these thoughts passed through my working brain, the night wore on. The players dropped off, one by one. The tables were gradually deserted. Soon there was but one left lighted— the roulette table before which I sat, and at which one persevering gamster was trying his luck. Finally he, too. wearied, and I was left alone with the banker, who was the proprietor, of the gambling hell." I do not know why. but I began to feel uncomfortable. However, he con tinued: "The banker looked at me Inquiring ly. I half rose to retire. I had fully determined to blow out my brains in the street, and that 1 did not do so is owing to one of the strangest of cir cumstances —so strange that you will not blame me for wondering whether it was supernatural. 1 half rose, I say, and as I did so, I saw upon the floor a round, bright object which had a silver shimmer as the gaslight fell upon it. !t was a coin, a—" "A peseta," I interrupted, breathless ly. "Yes," he went on, "a little bit c.f silver coin—oniy a peseta. But it saved my life. I placed my foot upon it, and, motioning t tne banker, said: | "'A peseta on the seventeen!' "The banker knew me well—he had ause to —and without making any in quiries he repeated my wager after me, and set the ball a-whirling. It stopped in the seventeen. " 'Seventeen wins, said he, and on the seventeen clanged seven silver du ros. "Again it stopped at seventeen." " 'Seventeen wins,' said the banker. "Again I left the glittering pile upon the seventeen, and again it won. Sev an several {imes did the goddess For tune smile upon me. And when f stopped it was not because I feared to venture further, but because I had bro ken the bank. The poverty stricken wretch who a few moments before had contemplated suicide was now weal thy." "And the peseta," said I, "you have that still, of course?" "No," be replyle.l. with a strange smile. "Why!" exclaimed I, with surprise, had I been you I would have kept it ill my life." "No," he replied, with a strange culiar smile, "you would not have kept it" "And why not?" | "When I stooped to pick up the coin I found —nothing." "Nothing!" I echoed. "Why—what —where —" "That which I had taken for a peseta was not a coin. The round, silvery ob ject on which the light had fallen and deceived me was--" "What? ' "A drop of water." HIGH LIGHTS. Sentimentality is the foolish elder sister of sentiment. When the heart loses freshness it be comes reminiscent. Our facts are earthly; by our fan cies touch heaven. Experience teaches man long after lit* thinks he has taken a diploma. Early to bed and early to rise makes even a genius tiresome to his family. The wise man knows he is a frac t'on: the fool tries to be the whole thing. The woman who is down on gossip doesn't say so until she has heard it all. Women hope for the best and then go and buy articles that have been mark ed down. The drawback to the noble ancestry is that It sets up in business a lot of bragging defendants. It is an inconsiderate husband who needs a new overcoat the same winter that his wife needs a new cloak. It would be a better world if women praised their husbands as heartily as they do their favorite baking powder. A man thinks that in knowing one woman he knows the whole sex; where as he may know the rest of the sex without knowing that one woman. SOME STATISTICS. A single human hair wil suport four ounces without breaking. At the present rate of combustion it is thought the sun will last from 7,000,- 000 to 1.7,000,000 years before burning itself out. The Indian population of the United States is 248,340. In 1402 they were the lords of the whole country; now they have reserved for them 144,400 square miles. The largest mass of pure rock salt in the world lies under the province of Gnliciu, Hungary. It is known to be 550 miles long, 20 broad and 250 feet in thickness. Russia with a population of 127.000.- 000 has only 18,334 physicians. In the United States, with a population of about 75,000,000, there are 120,000 physicians. A trench statistician has calculated that the human eye travels over 2.000 yards in reading an ordinary sized novel. The average human being is sup posed to get through 2,500 miles of reading in a lifetime. REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR. It takes two to make a quarrel, un less one of them is a woman. A girl's pockotbook is about like her bean, only it won't hold as many samples. If men didn't believe that women were better than they are. they would believe that they were worse. After a woman has had a baby, she looks pityingly at all the old bachelors she knows; after she has had three or four, she begins to wonder if they aren't looking pitingly at her. The woman who marries a man to make him better, two years afterward is generally putting in her time tak ing care of her complexion. There is no revenge so bitter or so lasting as the revenge of a lover. A man's reputation is his capital; a woman's capital Is her reputation. Reading a person like a book to most people means skipping the preface. Love never begins to come home to a man till he beg'ns to come home to love. Very few people fall in love who have the excuse that they didn't kuow any better, anyway. THE WORLD OVER. Over 11.000.000 fans are exported in one year from Canton, China. The sea coast line of the globe is computed to be about 130,000 miles. The Empire of Japan comprises to day about four thousand rocky islands. Boston claims to have the longest paved street in the world—Washington street—which is seventeen and a half miles in length. In the town of Chile most shops are open till midnight, and during the hot afternoons, when everybody takes a siesta, they are locked up. In a recent book on China the author says the Chinese burglars are ditli cult to catch, as they oil their bodies all over and twist their pigtails into bunches stuck full of needles. The only soap which the Hindoos of the .orthodox type employ is made entirely of vegetable products. But soap is little used in India, being al most an unknown luxury with the natives.

Why is it that so few women fall In love with the right men? How many women who try on hats at millinery openings really expect to buy them? The woman who talks most about her love affairs is the one who experi ences the least real emotion. No woman was ever known to call her photograph other than "hideously ugly." no matter how much she may admire it secretly. The girl who "talks for the gallery" in public conveyances ma.v think she is making a great impression, but she is the only one of that opinion. Many women rail m see the charm in their own husbands until some other woman manifests better eyesight in that particular-line. HER LAST LETTER. The sunbeams glanced blindingly from the window across the narrow street into Frank Getchell's corner of fice. He was sitting at his desk, one hand nervously grasping a pen. Be hind his desk the sunlight danced over the features of his stenographer, Alice Farrington. He was thinking deeply. Repeat edly he pondered: "If I only knew: But how can I find out?' His smooth brow slowly contracted as his thoughts progressed. She also was lost in thought, not withstanding her busy fingers wan dered accurately over the keyboard, her thoughts were an image of his. But to her soliloquies she added. "And I can never know if he doesn't tell me," and a sigh, drowned by the clicking of her machine, escaped her. Getchell had hired many typewriters. He had experienced every species of them, but each became, sooner or late**, cranky. Consequently, each had de parted—up to a year previous. At that time he had engaged Alice, and for a whole year he had retained her—an unprecedented phenomenon for him. But what was more, he wished very much to keep her rorever. In short, he over her. But he had never spoken to her of his passion. Oddly enough. Alice loved her em ployer. He was "so unlike other men," she told herself, "sb kind and polite." But she experienced those same feel ings of reticence that Getchell did. So for a year they had loved, only expressing that love by occasional kindnesses just enough to keep the Hame alive. To-day Frank was wondering wheth many of his best customers. They al he might as well find out at once. If she did love him life would be beauti ful: if not —wretched. Alice, too, wondered if Getchell could ove her. and smiling faintly, reflected: 'And should he propose? Could that sver he possible?" then pictured those sweet moments— his face when she should whisper "Yes," and murmur the words which she had been storing away in her memory awaiting that fateful moment. "Could I ever have (hat pleasure?" she questioned softlv. "Yes, all this might happen if it wasn't for that Miss Hayes! Oh, how I despise her!" and her beautiful brow contracted. She did not know, however, that Miss Hayes was Getchell's cousin and that tic would as soon have thought of mar rying the Italian "candy woman" laily haunted the office, as marry Ena. A half hour sped by. Suddenly Frank exclaimed: "Alice, here's an other letter." She grasped her little led-and-black-covered note hook and sat down beside him. "Dearest Ella: 1 can not wait another day. 1 have loved you so much for a year. 1 must know whether you love me. Will you he my wife and make me happy? You knoNv I love you and would do everything for you. As word succeeded word Alice's face was a study. She did not, as usual, Aeep her eyes upon Getchell's face; thay sought the carpet. 'That's all," he said, as she finished. Perhaps he saw nothing in her face, hut could he have seen her heart — the tearing, crushing passion which <urged within almost burning her soul asunder. Her veins swelled aud her fingers could scarcely find the keys. It was such a disappointment! How she hated Ella Hayes now! But the short letter was finished, and with her day's work she passed it to Getchell, exclaiming to herself: "That's the last letter I'll write for him!" He took them with a smie, read them over, and, as was his custom, corrected and emphasized with his pen a few words in each. Then, taking his coat and hat, he bade her a jaunty good-night" and departed. Alice, left alone, waited for his foot steps to die away. Then, sitting down she cried as though her heart would break. She accused Getchell of trifling with her —deceiving her. Yet, when she paused to think, he had never tried to win her affection. He had simply been "kind" and "good." Try as she would, she could not accuse him. She did not realize then that Cupid interfered. But she knew one thing. Her tear-stained face clouded as she cried: "Oh, but that Ella Hayes! How I despise her! He might have loved me but for her, and now" —but the glance fell on an envelope upon the desk. There, in Getchell's handwriting, were the words: Miss Alice Farrington." "He needn't have troubled to turn me off. I'll go soon enough," she thought, as she tore open the envelope. She unfolded the note within, then stood one mofnent with such a look upon her face—shame, sorrow, sur prise, delight, all blended together. The same letter which she had writ ten a few moments before was in her hand. "Ella" had been crossed out and "Alice" written instead. The office door creaked. She turned, i and in the doorway, his face wreathed .n smiles, stood Frank. He was treated :o a beautiful sight. The last reflected sunbeams played about Alice's fair leaturcs. her beautiful bosom swelling j with emotion, and lost themselves i around her supple waist. She was i standing, one hand holding the letter | and the other grasping the back of a ?hair. I He stepped forward and caught her ; m his arms. But she freely pushed him 1 aside, exclaiming: "No! Explain your i self! What does all this mean? Who Is Ella Haves? Yoh are trifling with I tplth me!" ! He quickly told her everything, and when he asked: "Darling, cp n you be I nine now?" she whispered: "Yes."
