CVIYLOOKATTHIS!‘ THE ruinous VISIT.
HIS LAST AND ONLY TRIP TO AMER-
ICA WAS IN 1860.
Be “'as Then 19 Years Old.
to the Yacht Races President Cleveland
‘Vill Adopt Buchanan’s Precedent and
Entertain Him at the “'hite House.
The Prince of Wales is to visit Amer-
ica to witness the yacht races in the fall,
and if Mr. Cleveland follows precedent
he will have to invite the Prince to be
his guest at the White House. That is
what President Buchanan did when the
Prince, then a youth of 19, visited Amer-
ica in 1860.
The Prince’s first visit was intended
particularly as a. tour of investigation of
the British possessions in Canada. Presi-
dent Buchanan did not wait for an offi-
cial confirmation of the report that the
Prince was to cometo this country. He
acted on the publications in the news-
papers, and on the 4th of J une, 1860, he
addressed a personal letter to the Queen
of England, which was presented by Mr.
Dallas, then our Minister at the Court of
St. James.
The reply of the Queen is one of the
official documents on file in the State
Department, where there are many speci-
mens of the correspondence of many
kings. queens and emperors.
If He Comes
Before coming to Washington the
Prince had visited Detroit, Chicago, St.
Louis, Cincinnati, Pittsburg, Altoona.
and Harrisburg, and had been enter-
tained in each of these cities. He had
had a shooting excursion and a ride down
the Allegheny Mountains on a Pennsyl-
vania Railroad locomotive. Everywhere
the representative of royalty had been
received with the greatest enthusiasm.
The Secretary of State, Mr. Cass, ac-
companied by two nephews of the Presi-
dent, met the Prince at the railroad sta-
tion, and he was escorted immediately to
the Executive Mansion. The members
of his suite accompanieddrim.
The-President would have liked to en-
tertain the whole of the Prince’s party,
but there is no Windsor Castle 01' Buck—
ingham Palace in \Vashington. And
surely it was enough that the President
of the United States should have given
up his own bedroom to a stranger.
There are only five bedrooms in the
White House.
The Prince of ‘Wales cgcupied the
room on the south side of the mansion
next the library. This was President
Harrison’s bedroom during the last ad—
ministration, but it is now the playroom
of the Cleveland children. The Duke of
Newcastle occupied the bedroom adjoin-
ing—the room in which President Gar—
field lay sick and in which Mrs. Harri-
son dicd. The other official guest, Major
General Bruce, was lodged in the apart-
ment opposite the library. The President
had a bedroom improvised for himself in
the executive offices.
On Thursday, October 4, the Prince
and his suite visited the Capitol, where
there was very little to see beyond the
architectural features of the building,
because Congress was not in session.
On the nextday the Prince went to
Mount Vernon. The excursion was then
a rather serious business. It was not
merely a day's pleasure down the Poto-
mac; nor was the sightseeing at the his-
toric home of Washington reduced to the
order which now prevails. The mansion
was there and the tomb, but the plaCe
had not been restored to the condition in
which Washington left it. Only four
years before the Mount Vernon Associa-
tion had been chartered by the State of
Virginia, and two years after that Ed-
ward Ex erett had raised the first $10,000
toward praying for the restoration of the
mansion.
The Prince accompanied the President
and the members of his Cabinet down
the river on a government boat—the
Harriet Lane. The Marine band had
preceded the party. From the wharf the
President and the Prince went to the
mansion and thence to the tomb. When
,the Prince stoad at the tomb with un-
covered hoad the Marine band, concealed
in the shrubbery close at hand, played a
dirge composed for the occasion. The
Prince was much moved by the solemnity
of the occasion, and he directed on his
return to England that the annual medal
for the encouragement of English poetry
should be awarded to the poet who would
treat most successfully the subject, “The
Prince of ‘Wales at the Tomb of Wash—
ington.”
Before leaving Mount Vernon the
Prince planted a tree to add to the
. historic group already started there.
The visit to Mount Vernon closed the
incidents of the Prince’s official recep-
tion in Washington. When he left there'
he went to Baltimore, Philadelphia, New
York, West Point, Boston and Port-
land. He sailed from Portland to Eng-
land.
The Black Man and lVlrito Trash.
“There’s nothing in the world that sur-
passes the contempt of a negro for a poor
white man,” said Col. McLendon. “I
suppose it is inherited. A white man
who didn’t own slaves in the old times
was considered beneath the notice of a
respectable negro, and the feeling has
grown more pronounced since emancipa-
tion. Then, again, the plantation over-
seers were usually poor whites. The
negroes all hated them, and they may
have taken some satisfaction in a. con-
tempt for the whole class they repre-
sented.
“The other day I was walking ‘along
the street when a colored man came by
driving before a wagon the most forlorn
specimen of a cow I have ever seen. She
was an‘ animated skeleton, and half her
hide was bare where she had rubbed off
the hair. One horn was gone and the
' other drooped as if it were falling out.
She was just able to creep and drag the
wagon along after her, but the old darky
who was driving beat the poor beast with
a stick and exclaimed: _‘
“ ‘G’lon'g dar. nao'w, you poor white
trash!’ ”——Chicago Record.
c Gov. Greenha'lge signed the bill rela-
tive to the construction of State high-
ways. It appropriates $400,000 for work
upon the roads of Massachusettes.
THE CHEAPENING OF BOOKS.
A False Business System Has Prevailed
Many Years to Keep Up Prices.
The announcement that booksellers ‘
will meet the prices of the department
. stores in the sale of books marks the end
of a long and foolish struggle artificially
to maintain an outworn trade system.
It also marks the beginning of a period
in which the public are to share the ad-
vantage of cheapened paper and book
making procesSe‘s.
In the days before railroads, fast mails
and cheap telegraphy the local book-
sellers all over the country were a. neces-
sary part. of the machinery of book dis-
tribution. The march of improvement
rendered their service unnecessary near-
ly a generation ago, or if not imneces-
sary at least less necessary than before,
When it became possible and easy for the
dweller in any remote town to order his
books of the publisher and get them
within two or three days the local book-
seller ceased to be a necessity. His
stock could never compare in complete-
ness with that which publishers’ cata-
logues, with the aid of fast mails, offered
to every book buyer to 'select from. To
increase sales publishers began to broad-'
en the scope of their discounts until
nearly all buyers formd that they could
do better by ordering their books by
mail.
Then a great “conference” was held at7
Put-in-Bay to devise means of “protect-
ing" the retail book trade—that is to say,
compelling book buyers to support mid-
dlemen for whose services they had no
use. Rigid rulss were adopted, only to
be broken, because they deserved to be
broken. Every publisher fixed a false
price on his books. He gave the retailer
a. discount of 40 per cent., and an addi-
tional discount of 10 per cent. for cash.
That is to say he sold $1 books for 54
cents to the retailer. '
Naturally it. good many publishers be-
gun to seek a retail trade by giving dis-
counts to direct buyers. There was more
money in selling a dollar book to the
reader for 75 cents than in selling it to,
the retailer for 54 cents and permitting
him to collect a dollar for it.
The system broke down, as it deserved
to do. Then the dry goods store's saw
their opportunity. They could buy books
at 54 cents on the dollar of retail price
and by sharing this excessive profit with
the ultimate buyer they could undersell
the retail bookseller. .
They were stigmatized as “book
butchers” and by other opprobrious
names, but their business was perfectly
legitimate. They were merely selling
goods at a fair price which had been sold
at an excessive price. They were carry-
ing out the sound principle of “large
sa es and small profits.”
The whole thing is very simple. Under
an artificial system the price of books
has been kept up, while the cost of mak-
ing books has’ enormously declined. At
last the public is to have the advantage
of the cheapening, as it ought long ago
to have had.
The result will be to benefit publishers,
authors, booksellers and book buyers
alike. At lower prices more books will
be sold. The profits of publishers and
the royalties of authors will be increased.
The people will get more for their money.
The reading habit will be greatly stimu-
lated. Popular culture will be advanced.
And if here and there a. bookseller in
some obscure town has to go out of the
business, the loss will not compare with
the great gain.
We are at the beginning of the uni-
versal reading age.
THE ALLADIN OVEN.
A Maximum of Heat for Domestic Pur-
poses From a Minimum of Fuel.
The most complete application of the
principle of boxing up heat and applying
it at at a moderate degree has been ac-
complished by Professor Booker T.
Washington. of the Tuskegee Colored
Institute of Alabama, where there are
650 adults, men and women, to be fed
every day. Beginning in a small way a
year ago, he has lately constructed a
very large oven of pine planks plastered
inside on wire lathing, with three-quar— .
ters of an inch mortar. It is heated with
five or six Bradley & Hubbard lamps.
In that oven the tough, stringy Southern
beef and mutton are made tender, suc—
culent, appetizing and nutritious. Two
hundred and fifty pounds 0f beef are
put in every night and are cooked, with-
out any attention after the oven is
charged. with vegetables, oatmeal or‘
cornmeal or other food in proportion. A
varied nutrition from the products of
the country has been attained. The cost
of the oven without lamps was $18. A
full description of this apparatus with
all the details is about to be printed in
the fourth edition of Edward Atkinson’s
book, ‘Science of Nutrition,’ published
by Damrelldc Upham. Boston. Any or-
dinary mechanic can make an oven.
Railroads of America.
At the beginning of 1892 there were
171,048 miles of railway in this country,
which had cost nearly 810,000,000,000,
representing the growth'of a. little over
sixty years, and about four-fifths of it
that of thirty years. In the year 1890,
while our railways covered 162,500 miles,
those of all Europe did not reach 145,000
miles. In the single year 1887 nearly
as many miles were built here as the en-
tire amount in operation in England and
_ Wales.
The number of passengers carried that
year was 492,430,865, and the number of
tons of freight, 636,541,617. It is further
stated that the average journey per pas-
senger was 24.06 miles, and of freight
119.72 miles; that the average railway
travel of the inhabitants was 190 miles
each in the year, showing a great use or
railroads,'while for each inhabitant ten
tons ‘of freight were moved about 120
milesa 0f the earnings 29.41 per cent.
was derived from passengers and 68.23
per cent. from freight traffic, the small
remainder being charged otherwise.
