Mr. Champion is an active mem ber of that league of English social ists that demands an eight-hour day, without reduction of the pres ent rate of wages, for all laborers in the United Kingdom, and he also advocates a return to the protective system for the benefit of such British manufacturers as may find it diflicult to compete with French or German makers who work their hands more than eight hours and pajr as low, or lower, wages than are paid in Great Britain. The pro position of Nr. Champion amounts to a confession that protection has a tendency to increase the pay of labor. This is gratifying to American protectionists as coming from Eng land, where the plea for protection as a benefit to labor long has been derided as unsound, though it never has been refuted by figures or by logic. But Mr. Champion's proposi tion has had the effect of forcing a celebrated American advocate into a like confession. The New York Evening Post, noticing Mr. Cham pion's project, and, of course, op posing it, says: "In short, the cry for an eight hours' day on the part of the work men is not due to a desire for more leisure, but to force up the price of labor b3 restricting its t-upply. j What the movement really means is, therefore, a higher cost of pro duction for the same amount of pro duct, due to a larger expenditure for wages. As this might cause some establishments now pressed hard by foreign competition to close, thus throwing workmen out of employment, Mr. Champion very consistently suggests a return to the protective system of tariffs." Two things are worthy of note in this excerpt. First, our contempo rary's dread of any measure that may tend toward "a higher cost of production," which means better wages, and second, its confession that protection does tend that way- But, bej'ond this, note the utter subjection to British interests that our contemporary displays. If "a higher cost of production" should become the rule in Great Britain there would be less need of a pro tective tariff in America, for our tariff is designed to protect our workmen against the ill-paid labor of Europe. But not even to gain a point against the American protec tive system can our New York con temporary complacently view a prospect of increased wages for the ill-paid British workman. It is one of the cardinal doctrines of free trade that whatever tends to "a higher cost of production" is ev.', whether it be tariff, or reduced hours of labor, or better wages. To produce something at the lowest cost, to regard all labor as mere mechanical force, is the object and sequence of all free trade philoso phy, and that is why Thomas Car lyle well named it '"the dismal science." But we are indebted to the New York Evening Post for its candid admission that protection is a ne cessity to countries in which, by reason of shorter hours of labor pnd better wages, "a higher cost ot pro duction obtains."

Murphy, formerly of Omaha, who has been commis sioned by the government to en Pghten F;uropeans with regard to the advantages of Amerrcan corn, writes from Berlin giving some interest;tig details as to the pro gress made. . In Germany, he states, thirteen mills have been put in operation for g?nding corn, and some of them have been working night and day and have been un able to fill their orders. Several other mills in various parts of Germany will soon be erected, the de mand for corn is so great. In Dres-1 . . ... . ! ueii, wnere iwo corn mills are in operation, more than half the bakers are selling maize-rye bread, composed of one part maize and two parts rye, in which the taste of the maize is not perceptible. Even the two mills in the latter city, one of them the Biueerts, the largest rye mill in Germany, are baking and selling large quantities of this bread, and the old government gar rison bakery is turning out thou sands of loaves daily. The govern ment is now putting in a corn milling plant in its large mill at Magdeburg, and the government report on the value of corn as food will soon be published, which is the result of a thorough investigation and practical testing of bread making at the garrison bakery, which he is informed by the com mission will be highly favorable.

A Gold lVlrh Found Inside Pickerel That Had lli-tn Swallowed. The scene of the following incident was about forty miles from Glovers ville, on a beautiful little lake just across the taltlo land at Piseco lake in Hamilton county. The lake is iiot larpe, in no place being more than a inilo wide, whilo it measures from two to three miles long. The day was all that a fisherman couM desire, and every condi tion was right for good fishing. A party of three were in the boat, namely, L. E. Everest: his friend, Professor Spencer, from Brooklyn, and the writer. They had driven up from Garoga and were more than delighted with their luck. They had taken nearly fifty pickerel in ' less than half a day, and the size was good, weighing from 2V to 6 pounds. The last turn around the "lucky point" was being made before we started for home. Everest, who was trolling one of the lines, said: "I've got another; he's a good big one from the way he pulls." Everest let him play at one time near ly 200 feet of line before the fish could be turned. When he had been brought into 6ight he was not so large as some we had already in the boat, but there was an unusual motion all about him. Soon the line was drawn so tightly it was necessary to let him play again. When brought back It was discovered that a larger pickerel had attempted to swallow the one on the hook, which was now quite exhausted. The big fellow still followed, shark like, for the dead body of his victim, which, however, we were not disposed to give up. Just as Everest was about to swing the fish, on his hook into the boat the professor took up the oar, hop ing to strike and thus capture the large one. The movement of the oar attracted the attention of the fish, and in a twin kle he made a pass at it. The blade was about eeven inches wide, but his jaws grated across the upper and lower edge, sawing a groove in either side with his sharp teeth. The professor, by carrying the oar for ward with the movement of the fish, at the same time raising it from the water, landed the huge fellow into the boat. He weighed 13 pounds. The fish on the hook only weighed three pounds, but showed signs of battle, being bitten in several places. Upon opening him we found, as is often the case, a fish of smaller size in his stomach. This one showed signs of life, and was opened. We then discovered a pretty little gold chatelaine watch, and were surprised that the time agreed with our watches and that it was running. More than pleased with our fishing ex pedition, we returned to the Adirondack hotel, and informed Landlord George A. McCoy of our luck, at the same time showing the watch. In less than two min utes all the guests about the house were in the office, and among the number a pretty young lady from Albany, who said the watch was a token of friendship which she had prized very highly. When on the Like in the early part of the day it had fallen into the water, and she sup posed was lost. It is needless to say phe was overjoyed at its recovery. Albany Journal. Only Blan Ever Killed by a Meteor. To the writer's certain knowledge there is but one case on record where a human being has been killed by an aero lite or fall of meteoric stone. The fa tality mentioned occurred in Whetstone township, Crawford county, O., in 1875. and is recorded in the Bucyrus Journal as follows: As David Misenthaler, the famous stockman, of Whetstone township, was driving his cows to the barn about day light this morning he was struck by an aerolite and instantly killed. It appears as if the stone had come down from a direction a little west of south, striking the man just under or on the right shoulder, passing obliquely through him from the right shoulder to just above the left hip, burying the greatei portion of his body under itself in the soft earth. The 6tone is about the size of a wooden water bucket, and appears to be composed of pyrites of iron. Phil adelphia Press. Millions of Fungi Spores. All the energies of the fungus plant seem to be directed to tne proaucnon ot germs for propagating its kind. Their number is often almost v incalculable. You have doubtless observed that the common puff ball when mature is filled with a fine dust, and this consists en tirely of spores corresponding to seeds, which are eventually diffused in the air by the bursting of the puff ball. In a sin gle puff ball more than 10,000,000 of them have been counted, and when these minute bodies are once set afloat in the atmosphere they are distributed abroad over an indefinite space, being 6o small that it is difficult to conceive of a place from which they could be excluded. Their astonishing f ertility and rapidity of growth are among the most remark able characteristics of this vegetable tribe. Interview in Washington Star. An Air Tight Prison. While some men were squaring the trunk of an oak they had just felled they suddenly started back in astonishment on seeing a hideous toad about the size of a large pullet'6 egg incrusted in the tree 4 inches in from the bark and 15 feet from the root. Though mangled by the ax the creature still moved, but it appeared old, thin and decrepit. A careful examination revealed no en trance to its prison Louse, London Tit- Spot Cash Hardware.
