er. Cleveland and the Tariff.

The Philadelphia Bulletin seems to
think that the president will insist, in
his coming message, upon the passage
Of a radical Free Trade bill. It quotes
from the Washington correspondence
Of a Northern Free Trade organ as fol-
lows:

The president does not believe that a
tariff bill which has not yet been framed
played any considerable part in the elec-
tions; neither does he believe that the
great vote given McKinley, much less
the republican majorities clsewhere,can
be legitimately interpreted to be a re-
vocation of the instruction given by the
people of the whole country a year ago
for the prosecution of tariff reform.

It seems impossible that Mr. Cleve-
land should have made such a mistake
a 8 this, abundant as he has been in mls-
understandings and misconceptions of
the signs of the times.

There could be nothing more emphat-
ic than the verdict in Ohio,where as the
Bulletin points out,the issue was clearly
defined between the great protection
leader and the man who drew the Free
Trade plank in the Chicago platform.
On both sides in Ohio, the contest was
admitted to be squarely on the tariff is-
sue. And certainly lthe result in the
Buckeye state must have impressed the
president that a few months Of most
painful experience under the mere threat
that protection Would be abandoned,
had Convinced the people that the adop-
tion of a Free Trade system would be
m 1st disastrous in its results.

The President and the Public.

The attempts Of certain sensational
newspapers to place absurd construe?
tions on President Cleveland’s visit to
New York are to be deprecated. Very
nlturally the Nation takes a decided
interest in the welfare Of its Chief
M igistrate, and his public acts and his

_ health are legitimate topics for discus-
sion, but it does seem that it is going
to extremes when the President’s visrt
to the metropolis of the country for
the purpose of looking after some pri-
vate affairs is distorted into numerous
as isutiOBftl and illogical deductions,
and then paraded before the public in a
manner calculated to alarm and excite.
Such conduct is not only extreme, but
it closely approaches outrageous treat-
ment Of the Chief Magistrate.

The President of the United States,
says the Washington Post, is never an
exclusive personage. His time is rath-
er thoroughly occupied by the affairs
of the government, and he is frequent-
ly compelled to deny himself the most
ordinary pleasures in order that the
public demands may be satisfied. Yet
the President is but human. He has
private business affairs like other mor-
tals, and like all other such affairs, they
occasionally require attention. When
it is announced by those who are au-
thorized to speak that the President
has taken a day off to look after mat-
ters that concern his private interests,
such announcement ought to be ac-
c pted as authentic. It is quite certain
that it should not be utilized as a
founcation for Wild and misleading
“Dries. '

It is not at all strange that Secretary
Limont complained of some of the
newspaper stories of the President’s
vgsit to New York. He chose to go in
an unostentatious manner and there
was no warrant for the belief that he
was engaged in some important and
mysterious affair. There is certainly
no dearth of news iii administration
circles, and even the most sensational
newspapers ought to be able to satisfy
thmnorbid appetite they have created
without invading the Presidential

1 household with their unwarranted con-
‘ jectures. It is manifestly unfair to the
people to assume that they indorse or
encourage such journalism. There is
always a large proportion of thepublic

, . that doesn’t agree with the President’s

. political views, but no American citi-‘

zen cares to have the head of the gov-
ernment constantly subjected to such
petty annoyances.

The next attraction announced for
the Opera House is for tO-night, and
will be “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” with
Peter Jackson, as “Uncle Tom." Jack-
son is said to be nothing, if not con-
scientious, and the careful study and
hard work which he has devoted to
this preparation for the stage, is appar-
ent in every line he speaks and
in every move he makes. His
big form and loose walk are pe-
culiarly fitted to the requirements
of “Uncle Tom,” and his voice has
the deep resonance that one would
expect to find in that of the Old planta-
tion darky. Mr. Charles E. Davies.
better known as “Tl-O Parson,” is the
director of the company, and inciden-
tally will be seen in the dual roles Of
“The Auctioneer” and as “George
Harris,” the fugitive slave.

Mysterious Disappearance.

North Greenwich is in a high state of
excitement over the mysterious disap
pearance, early Wednesday morning,
Of Clara L. Pickhardt, daughter of a
wealthy cigar manufacturer, named
William P. Pickhardt‘.

The Pickhardts live in a commodious
house near what is known as “Quaker
Ridge,” on the line dividing the States
Of New York and Connecticut.

The Pickbardts established them-
selves in business More fifty years ago,
Ernestine Pickhardt being the head.
When Ernestine died, his sons. William
P. and George W. succeeded to the
busmess, which they have .SIDCB con-
ducted with good success. Their 'fac-
tory is a large structure and is situated
within a stone’s throw of the house.

Clara was a robust girl and a reign—
ing belle in the town and of the bru-
nette type She is only fifteen venrs
old, but has already mingled with the
select circles in Port Chester, Stamford
and Greenwich and had many admirers.
Clara disappeared early on Wednesday
morning. She Went to her room at

’ nine o’clock Tuesday evening, taking

a younger sister with her. All was
quiet when she went to her room, her
father and mother having preceded
her but a few minutes.

Mr. Pickhardt was awakened at one
o’clock on the morning of Clara’s dis-
appearance by the sOund of footsteps
on the staircase. Spr. nging out of bed
he asked, “Who is that ?”

The answer came back ,in Clara’s
voice, who replied :———“It’s I, pa.”

Clara said she was going down stairs
a moment. Mr. Pickhardt thought
that this was not unusual and again lay
down to sleep. He was again aroused
about two hours later by the cries of
Clara’s little sister, and stepping into
the hall espied his daughter’s bedroom
door wide open. He glanced into the
room and saw that Clara had not yet
returned. He went down stairs and
observed that the front door was ajar.
A hasty look throughthe rooms showed
him that Clara had d1sappeared.

It is said by those who are acquaint-
ed with the Pickhardts that certain
neighbors not unconnected With the
factory‘have been Jealous of the weal-
thy cigar manufacturer and his family,
and have made threats against them.
This is not denied by Mr. Pickhardt.
Whether this trouble has anything to,
do with Clara’s disappearance is not
yet to be known. None of the family
believe» for a moment that Clara eloped.
They strenuously assert that she could
not have done so. ' .

And They Never Came Back.

 

It is relatedlof Dentist Frank '1‘.
Hyatt, that in his sympathetic heart
he was moved to and did do a. charit-

‘able deed in his line of business that he

regretted. He. has extracted teeth
enough without charge, during his ex-
perience in business, to pave the entire
length of walk in front Of Ills West
avenue home. A story not related by
himself is told, at his expense, however,
as follows : He has a pet Maltese cat.
Some weeks since he noticed that
“Doc,” as he calls her, showed evident
symptoms of suffering from “I wish I
were dead”ttoohache. He picked “Doc”
up one day and found a. decayed tooth
in her jaw, and he decided to extract
it. Arming himself with a pair of for-
ceps he hitched them on to the tooth
and quicker than you could say seat
the decayed mouse-dissecter was out.
The feline looked up in Frank’s face
with an expression Of gratitude that
would "melt” a. mortgage for $500, and
jumping to the floor danced a reel that
made the dentist’s heart glad. Soon
after “Doc” showed a disposition to
call on friends and the door was open-
ed for her depature. The next morn-
ing on opening the Office one can im-
agine Mr. Hyatt’s surprise at finding
fifteen cats at the door all , with
their paws on their jaws; Nothing
daunted the sympathetic dentist ex-
tracted an aching tooth for each, in
turn, and they all departed apparently
delighted ; the next morning the num-

ber of feline callers had increased to

twenty-five at which number it con-
tinued every morning for a week. Dr.
Hyatt on the last day of the week men-
tioned had his attention attracted to a
pretty silver collar on one of the felines
and found that the cat was owned by
parties in Hartford. While glad to
know that his skill in dentistry was ap-
preciated by the Felis domestica in far
away Hartford, the “all for nothing”
plan of extracting teeth had become
irksome, and while in his mind wishing
every feline in the land was in some
catacomb or cave, he decided to put a
stop to their visits. The following morn-
ing there was the usual number of “cats
with paw on their jaw” at the door. He

.selected one that according to its cox-

1ar-badge came from Danbury. Plncng
the forceps on the tooth he broke it off,
and then released the animal. Not
waiting for the dentist to open the door
the cat jumped through a 60 cent pane
Of glass and made its escape. Since
that morning Mr. Hyatt has not seen a
cat within 500 feet of his home.

Generosity consists, not in the sum
given, but the manner and occasion of
its bestowal. —

Contentment is the only true happi-
ness of life; and a pleasant disposition
and good work will make the whole
surroundings ring with cheerfulness.

There is more benefit in a good laugh
than 1n all the hot water remedies,
fa1th cures, cold water, electric and
other new .fangled treatments in the
world, and it does not cost anything.

Some rich men take a good deal more
pains to provide for the erection of
a costly monument after they die than
they do to live so that they will not
need one.

Among the novelties for evening wear
are collarettes of black “ footing,”
edged With white inserting. They are
about ten inches deep with double capes
and double ruffles around the neck.

Bands Of mohair braid of varying
widths come With the lower edge fringed
With clever imitations Of fur in light
brown, gray, dark brown and black.
This makes an efiective trimming for a
plum cloth gown.

Rich russet brown hopsacking with
brown velvet sleeve puffs and collarette
is a favorIte material for brides’ travel-
ing dresses, and chestnut brown cam-
el’s hair is used for girls’ school dresses
With double-breasted jacket to match.

Women of fashion,and indeed almost
every girl who is up to date,knows what
the “rainbow craze” means. It means
the use for evening dress of ribbons or
material with a prismatic effect of the
primary colors blended and when not
overdone is very effective and fetching.
It has now been extended to fans, and
they actually say to stockings. As to
the fans they are very pretty, and 0:.-
some of them the colors are bountifullv
blended in coque feathers, SWaIlo‘dOWfl
and gauze.

socml reunion than a function of an 3’
other character. In one of thcbnx I
noticed three of the most beautiful
women that I have ever seen. Iwas
told that one was the youngest daugh-
ter of New York’s greatest millionaire.
Her gown consisted of a black moire
antique skirt with the Frenchy little
bodies of geranium pink satin covered
With black accordion—plaitcd chiffon.
Immense revers and epaulettes of green
velvet were edged with tiny black
spangles, and a soft belt Of the moire
was held in place by an antique buckle.
With this Odd combination she wore a
large black hat loaded with plumes,
under the rim Of which were tiny ro-
settes Of geranium pink and green satin
ribbon. Most Of the young matrons
wore bonnets consisting of bandeaux
of jet or steel, while the debutantes
went in largely for picturesque head-
_wear of greater dimensions. -

To the EDITOR: Is there any al-
cohol in sweet cider? If not when
does it get there? F

Alcohol begins to form the moment
air comes into contract with the juice
Of the apple, says the sampler of the
Winsted Herald,and continues to in-
crease in amount as time goes on. Most
cider drinkers, however, are agreed
that they should-swear off or draw the
line at a point which may be represent-
