The other day I went into the iron work3 here. The owner employs 200 men making steel wagon springs. They are shipped to France, England and America. "When I asked the splendid work men what they were getting a day for their skiUed labor at the forge, they said: "Seventv cents (Sli franca) a day, sir." "But how can you live ou that," I asked, "for I see you eat Ameiican flour and American bacon, which costs more here in Belgium than in Araer icaf "Well, we don't eat so much as they do in America,' they said. '"We never think of having meat oftener than twice a week. We live on soups and vegetables. We live about as badly as the Chinese. We wear cotton clothes only. Our stomachs are ac customed to famine. Dry, black bread tastes good to us. They say you had a Dr. Tanner in America who lived forty days on water. Wo do a good deal as Dr. Tanner did." What the man said was true, for this seventy cents would not buy so much food in Belgium as it will in Cleveland. From the workmen I went to the mill owner. He lived in a nice house and kept a carriage. He was a nice Christain man, who loved his men. He had been a forgeman himself bnce. "Why do you not pay your men higher wages?" I asked. "Such men get S2.50 in Cleveland, Ohio." "The reason is this," he said. "I ship my wagon-springs to America. I have to pay SiO on every $100 worth of springs sent there. The $40 comes off my men's wages. If it come off me I would be ruined in a day." "But they pay $2.50 a day in Amer ica,', I suggested. "Yes, but they are protected there. The manufacturer gets S40 more for every S100 worth of his springs than I do. That $40 enables him to pay these high "wages. HLs men get ev ery cent of it' "But suppose they should reduce the tariff in America, as Congressman Frank Hurd and the Democratic par ty generallywant them to?" I asked. "Well, the price of wagon-springs would fall forty per cent We would ship our springs there if springs were higher than in Belgium and fill the market. You do not think the Yan kees could pay $2.50 per day for la bor and make springs as cheaply as we can and pay men 70 cents, do you?" "Would a reduction of the tariff in America break up their iron works?" I asked. "No." said thoBelgian. '"It would not break them up, but they would have to shut down for awhile." 'Well how long?" "Why, until the American work man was starved down into working for 70 cents a day. Then they'd start up again. Then Belgium and the United btates would be alike. Both would have the same priced labor. America is now the only nation on the globe that pays $2.50 a day for labor. She does it because she has a tariff." "Then why don't you go over there and start a manufactory?" I asked. "Because I would be no better off than here. My men would get al most four times as much wages as here but I, as a mill owner, would make no more money. I make as much money here as I could in Amer ica. You see 1 live in a nice house. I could do no more in America. It is a laboring man in America that is benefitted by the tariff, not the mill owner. "But there is a congressman in Ohio, Frank Hurd," I said, "who ad vocates taking off this tariff 1" "There is?" "Yes; he advocates it publicly." "And laboring men listen to him?" "Yes." "And don't you know that this Hurd would take the bread out of their children's mouths; yes, starve them down to 70 cents a day?" "Oh," I said, "I suppose he fools some of them." "Well.', he said, "I'm an old man. I worked at the forge for 50 cents a day myself, and I say feelingly that a man so ignorant and wicked as to in jure the workmen of America why these workmen ought to rise up in their indignation and sweep him from the earth. He isn't fit to receive the votes of a free people." Belgium Corr. Cleveland Leader. Katherine Bates wants to know in a general way: "Bat how shall my song set free From the shimmering cells of my ocean pearl The music that haunts the sea?" If you care for our advice, Kather ine, we say don't do it Not by no manner of means. If you have the music that haunts the sea shut up in the shimmering cells of an ocean pearl, you keep it there. 'Don't let it out for anything. Yon hold on to it for a rise. And the rise will come if, you're a pretty bad sailor, ae soon as you pass outsidb the bar. A person who has the music that haunts the sea shut up in the shimmering cells of an ocean pearl, owes a solemn du ty to humanity to keep it there. It is awful music Wa heard it ontA when it was shut up, to a certain ex- cui, iu mo buimmenng ceils OI an after stateroom, and we never want to hear it again. It was dreadful.

A Gcunine Love Story. A young clergyman and h;s bride were invited guests at a large party given by a wealthy parishioner. In all the freshness and elegance of her bridal wardrobe the young wife shone among the throng, distinguish ed by her comeliness, vivacity and rich attire; and when during the evening her young husband drew her aside and whispered to her that she was the most beautiful woman in all the company, and that his heart was bursting with pride and love for her, she thought herself the happiest woman in the world. Ten years later the husband and wife were guests at the same house, where was gathered a similar gay company. The wife of ten years wore the same dress she had worn on the previous occasion; of courso it nau oeen maue over, and was old-fashioned and almost shabby. Toil and care and motherhood and pinched circumstances had taken the roses out of her cheeks, and the lithe spirit out of her form. She sat apart from the crowd looking carworn and preoccupied. Her small hands, roujrhened with coarse toil, were un gloved, for the minister's salary was painfully small. A little apart, the ten years hus band stood and looked at his wife, and as he observed her faded dress and her weary attitude, a great sense of all her patient, loving faithfulness came over his heart Looking up she caught his earnest gaze and noticed that his eyes were filled with tears. She rose and went to him, her ques tioning eyes mutely asking an ex planation of his emotion, and he ten derly look her hand and placing it on his firm led her away from the crowd and told her how he had been think ing of her as she looked ten years before when she was a bride, and how much more precious she was to him now and how much more beautiful for all, for her shabby dress and roughened hands, and how ho appre ciated all her sacrifices and patient toil for him and their children, a great wave of happiness filled her heart; a light shone in her faco that gave it more than its youthful beauty, and in all this company there was not so happy a couple as this husband and wife, ther hearts and faces aglow from the flaming up of a pure senti ment that .transfigured and ennobled all the toils and privations they had endured. Henry A. WKc and Joe Brown! Wise was one of the brightest men America has produced. He could talk like a telegraph, chew tobacco and write letters at -iho same time. He was a great tobacco chewer, and averaged during exciting times a plug an hour. I have seen him in a com pany of twenty noted men, where ho monopolized the whole conversation. He was a brilliant man, a fine writer, and one of the most eloquent of speakers. His son John does not look like bin, and I do not think he has inheritel his father's abilities. Hero the conversation drifted over to Governor Joe Brown, of Georgia, and this man said: "Brown was born in the Pickens district of South Car olina. He was very poor as a young man, and when the Cherokees were driven from a part of Georgia he de termined to go there to settle. The story is that he had not enough money to buy a horse and saddle but that he rode into the state on a bull with a bell on its neck. When he got to the Savannah river he had no money to pay the ferry, aud he bar gained with the boatman to take him across for the bull's bell. Bob Toombs used to say that he wished the blanked flatboat had gone to the bot tom and drowned Joe Brown and his bell and his bull It did not bow ever, and Brown made money, aud in time became governor."
