THURS DAY MARCH 10, 1898. HAULED IN THEIR HORNS It'seems that the men who have been fighting the Republican party during its entire existence upon the ground that its tariff policy was not a proper one are now conceding that it is, and hasbeen from the first, right. Four frenzied appeals to-the people as against the Republican party have been, issued during the present month, that-of ex-Candidate Bryan, followed. by those of the three party leaders who are striving to nnite the elements of national discord in his support, yet not one of them mentions as an argument against the Republicans . this great subject which has been its leading principle and which today shares in ite estimation an equal honor with sound mopey, Since these men now admit by. their silence that the Republican party ever since its existence has been right in its fight for this great principle of protection and that they have been wrong in their fight against it is it not possible that the views of its Jeaders on the money question are entitled to some consideration as against those of the men who thus admit the unsoundness of their views on an equality important subject in the Ir 1s about four years since the silver people trotted out those awe-inspiring and delusive tables claiming to show thatthe price of wheat keeps pace with the price of silver. Wheat was then worth 543; cents a bushel in New York markets and silver was worth 65. cents an ounce. Silver is now worth 55%, cents an ounce and wheat last week was $1.087;. Thus the four years’ practical test of these tables has given results precisely the reverse of the showing made by them, since silver has fallen fifteen per cent. meantime, while wheat has nearly doubled. oo * DUEL IN THE SNOW: fo > es The Incident Upon Which Was # Gerome’s Beautifal x Every one has seen the cnginviing of Gerome's beautiful bat sadly effective ‘“*S Duel In the Snow.” [. .th ere wearing the masquerading cos. tame of a Pierrot. Ina thicket a carriage’Wwaits to drive off witl the successful opponent. There is every reason to. believe, from recently disclosed, information by M. Alfred Darimon, that in portraying on canvas that impressive episode the ertist was not influenced.by solely. im:ginative caprice, but that he has reprofuced a scene in real life. — The facts are as follows: The duelists were M. Jules Brame, a former minister of public instruction under the second empire, and M. D. D., a well known journalist on the staff of one of the most influential newspapers in the north of France. When the duel oconrred, both were studying the bar. One Shrove Tuesday they, in company with friends, bad repaired to a rpstauenjoying a good dinner and afterward of going to the masquerade ball at the Opera. They all ‘agreed to go as Pierrots. As they all wore masks some one suggested that they should adopt some distinctive sign by which they could recognize one another in the crowd. D. D. suggested that they should pin a Iabel bearing a number to their backs. The idea-was unanimously adopted, and D. D. prepared the Jabels posardingly. While so doing.a diabolical idea came into his head. Itwas carnival time. Why should he not have _his little. joke? When it was Jules Brame’s turn to have a ticket pinned to his back, his friend D. D. had written in large letters beneath the number, “I am Jules was the resulte No sooner had Brame set foot in the main passage. to the premiere galerie than~he was followed bya lady wearing a mask, who, op his preparing to enter a private box, oried ont, “J wish you success, Jules Brame.’’ Later on, on re-entering the passage, he was surrounded by a group of masquer-aders, who with one voice shouted out, “‘Good day, my dear Brame.” That proved to him that he was known to every one, although he was puzzled to understand how it could be. Passing in front of a box opener, the girl burst out laughing. He inquired angrily what she was laughing at. at the funny idea which led you to pin a@ label on your back with your name on it.’’ And, suiting the action to the word, she unpinned the label and handed it to him. only in bad taste, but insulting. He sought out his comrade, and, finding him in the saloon, he reproached him angrily in the hearing of the crowd, insisting that he should apologize openly shen and there, D. D., resenting his friend’s attitude towatd him, declined to apologize. A duel therefore, in accordance with French habits and cus.oms, was inevitable. Seconds were at yace chosen, Short swords. were prosured, and in their Pierrot costumes the wtagonists started for the Bois de’ Boulogne. Fortunately the duel did not and fatally, as seems to be the case in Gerome’s picture, for, although Brame Tue Labor Commissioner .of New ’ York, in. a report just published, states that the price of farm lands in that State has depreciated very largely in the past five or six years, and says thai many of the reports of his correspondents indicate that prices have fallen from fifty to seventy-five per cent. in that period. This fall in value, it will be observed, is coincident with—nof the “crime of '73,” which occurred 2& years ago, but the “crime of 92,” by which the people elected a free-trade President and free-trade Congress. Tue author of “Quo Vadis” has re“ turned to his European: home from a brief tour in this country, and that he is suffering from an enlargement of the héad-is shown by the silly stories he is telling of how the American women fell at his feet and worshipped him. One of his most idiotic attempts in this direction js the narration’ of how one society. woman on whom he called asked him to let her hold his hands during his stay in her drawingroom. Oaxuasp Triewne: “To New York, ‘first-class, $40; second-class, $30,” is the legend displayed _ in the windows of railroad offices across the bay now that ran his sword right through D.
