Trade with Canada.

Vile. see no reason, that does not ap-
ply- to any other country, why we
should amend our tariff to discrimin-
ate favorably to Canada and Canadian
products. It is doubtless true that
Canada would like free entry for her
products into this country. So would
any. other, country on earth. But if
Canada, were permitted to send her
productsin. here, duty free, she would
by so, much as she sent in curtail the
Inc-.rket for home products. This gov-
ernment is not maintained to provide a
1..arket for Canada or any other de-
pendency of. a. foreign government.

A. Brave Confederate.
, General Longstreet has been ap-
pointed, Commissioner of Railroads to
fill the vacancy caused by the resigna-
tion of Wade Hampton. The appoint-
ment will. be favorably received, the
only criticism to be offered being that
hisadvanced age will probably limit
his usefulness.

That General Longstreet is in every
other respect well qualified for the
duties of the position will not be dis-
puted, and that he will administer his
office in all justice and fairness cannot
be doubted. There is especial fitness in
his selection as a representative of the
South, "the section. in which there is
more-railway building at present than
elsewhere. He was one of the bravest
0f the Confederate soldiers while there
was a Southern Confederacy, and one
of the first to accept reconstruction
when the war was over.

A Fallen Gladlator.

:A tragic pause has been'called on the
inflamed disputants in the desperate
battle for political control of Greater
New York by the sudden death of
Hem y George. After delivering sev-
er a1 speeches on Thursday night, he
died suddenly of heart disease at an
early hour on Friday morning. .This
deathhas eliminated from the contest
the strongest personality involved in
it, though not the most hopeful of the
four leading candidates.

Henry George, J r., son of the fallen
gladiator, has been nominated to suc-
ceed his father as the candidate of the
Jeffersonian Demooi'acy, but the power
of Henry George has perished. The
son, says thevPhiladelphia Times, lacks
every feature of tire distinctive indi-
viduality presented by his father, and
with an army of folloWers largely of
the Fa‘ staflian type, the cohesion of
the George forces must be broken, and
Tammany will be likely to gather in
many thousands of stragglers from the
demor alizcd followers of the great la-
bo1 leadel .

Of the four leading candidates for
Mayor of New York—Van Wyck, Low,
Tracy and George—Henry George in-
spired much the greatest personal fol—

mental devotion that was logically in-

army to support him, embracing many

test against Tammany;

the socialistic elements followed him
because he. was against existing condi-
tions and in favor ,offreyolutionary
political action.

The young Henry Gemge who suc-
ceeds his father isa mere feather-
weight in the contest, and the proba—
bilities are that he will lose thirty. per
cent. or more .of the vote that would
have been cast for the elder Henry
George had he lived; and while itis
difficult to estimate such uncertain ele-
ments and unknown quantities as the

ganized methods the Tammany leaders
have for reaching purchasable votes.
Had no successor been nominated to
take the place of Henry George asa
canditate, it is questionable whether
Low or Van Wyck would have most
profited by the division of the vote;
but the indications now are that the
death of George and the substitution
of his son, must be advantageous to the
Tammany candidate, and would seem
to strengthen Van Wyck’s already
good chances for success...

FEMININE CHAT.

Jacqueminot Velvet hats are much
favored by brunette beauties.

To be content with your lot is to show
lack of ambition and progress.

Three kinds of fur utilized in one
garment is no unusual sight these days.

- A walk in the rain without an um-
brella is especially beneficial to the
complexion.

The Marlborough and Cleveland
babies ale the most talked about in-
fants of the time.

A charge account means a monthly
surprise to the woman who always de-
clal es she never bought all the things
set down in her bill.

There seems to be a veritable epi-
demic of tiny waists. The athletic girl
has broad shoulders,but she doesn’t run
much to waist—to indulge at once in a
pun and and an honest statement.

Some people in business seem to
think there is only one day worth liv-
ing for, and that is the one on which
they are paid their salary.

Sealskin and Persian lamb jackets
did not seem. the least bit out of place
on their fair wearers yesterday.

When does a woman look prettier
than when wearing a severely plain
well-fitting tailor-made costume with

Celery Salad.-¥Cele1‘y is useful as a
salad owing to its well—known value as
a nerve builder. , Wash the celery,trim
off all the green stalks and pare the
root. Cut into shreds the white stalks
and the portion of the root clinging to
them after paring. Toss them in a.
bowl with the same dressing used for a
tomato and lettuce salad. A celery
mayonnaise is a delicious accompani-
ment of a game dinner. Trim the
celery; cut the bleached portions left
1nto half-inch lengths, and season it
with a teapoonful of salt and two or
three shakes of the white pepper cas-
tor. Cover it with mayonnaise and
serve at once. ‘ .r " ~=.:. *

Mincemeat without Beef. -—Weigh a'.
pound of good beef suet, after chopping
it as finely as possible, also a pound of
stoned raisins; cut the latter across,but
do not chop. Well wash and half dry
a pound of currants, and pare,_core and

(these are the best for the purpose, as
they are less watery.) Add two pounds
of powdered sugar, a quarter of a
pound of mixed candied peel—lemon,
citron and orange , (minced;) a little
powdered clove, and two ounces of
orange marmalade. Mix the whole
well together, so that the ingredients
may be well blended, then throw over
it a quarter of a pint of brandy and the
same quintity of sherry. This mince-
meat is bette1 made a month befole .it
is used. Tie it down with bladder to
exclude the air.

Pittsburg, Oct. 30. —The Union Trust
Company’s big building on Worth ave-
nue, the local Wall street. was de-
stroyed by fire yesterday. The building
was occupied by the trust company, the
Pittsburg Stock Exchange and a. res-
taurant in the cellar.
smokestack from the kitchen in the,
basement set fire to the roof and the
flames had gained great headway be-
fore a. stream of water was thrown on
them. The burned building was sold to
the Union Trust Company two years
ago for $150,000 by the Stock Exchange.
The loss is estimated at from $150,000
to $200,000, on which there is an in-
surance of about one-half.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours; a sediment or settling indicates
an unhealthy condition of the kidneys
When urine stains linen it is evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.

WHAT TO DO.

There is comf01t in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy
fulfills evely wish 1n relieving pain in
the back kidneys, liver, bladder and
every pa1t of the 111 lnaly passages. It
corrects inability to hold urine and!

scalding pain in passing it, or bad ef-
fects following use of liqu01, wine or
beer. and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to win-
ate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized.
It stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases. If
