There is ample room for reciprocity alongside of Protection, but the latter camnvot and mast not be supplanted. The Amsrirsn prodnoer needs markets for hw surplus products, but be is not readv to earrender the matchless home field in order to get them. Nor need he. The United States, with its industries developed ander the restoring care of Protection, has so much to sell and is in a position to bay in such large quantities that it can command favorable terms without sacrificing domestic interests. It was Lord Salisbury, the British Pre mier, who onee lamented the fact that Free Trade had left England economi cally defenseless, He said in substance that his country could exact nothing from other nations in return for trade concessions, because it had already given ap everything, and there was no oppor tunity for a quid pro quo. The United States, on the other hand, is economi cally impregnable. Protection has aided it in perfecting a wonderful industrial system, and it is in a position to sell to all the world. It has almost illimitable resources in the form of products which the world needs. It is able to buy vast amounts of goods which other parts of the world supply. It holds a masterful place, and can make reciprocity minister to its own interests as well as to those of its customers. This is the principle contemplated by the statesmen who have favored reci procity. The benefits are not to be one aided. If the United States yields something in the way of trade advantages- the reciprocating nations must be equally obliging. Reciprocity will not be used to destroy what Protection has built up. The two must go hand in hand. When we have reciprocity it must be with Protection. That is sound Americanism and the true Republican policy. Troy Times. OMAHA SUBURBAN TROLLEYS. The time is rapidly approaching when every considerable trading point in Ne braska will want trolley connections with the surrounding villages. The more thickly settled sections of the east are building trolley lines in every direc tion that are doing much business, greatly to the advantage to trade centers and to the accommodation of the smaller towns and the rural community. Ne braska's turn will come before long to take advantage of this modern conven ience. In Omaha the question has already become a burning one and sev eral syndicates have been formed each of which is seeking a franchise for a con nection up the Platte to Fremont as a starter. The general impression, how ever, seems to be that the syndicates are trying to get some valuable thing from the county commissioners to sell and that none of them have either the capital or the intention to build a trolley line if the franchise is granted. So the matter sticks and the county commissioners have made a compact not to give out a franchise to anybody without a unani mous vote. In the meantime the syndi cates are getting out injunctions against each other to further complicate the scrimmage. Lincoln Journal. Faox Pekin, China, under date of Jan uary 9 is cabled that the director of railroads and mines of Shan Si province visited United States Minister Conger today and said that a branch of the Bel gian railroad will be extended to Shan Si in the spring. He explained the great mining resources of the province and urged Mr. Conger to use his influence to induce Americans to invest capital in the province, saying that the policy of the United States during the recent troubles had led the Chinese to prefer dealing with Americana, as they have greater confidence in their honesty. As a last resort, John E. Richardson of Brooklyn, N. Yn who had been a sufferer from cancer for many years, and whose life was despaired of, is submitting to a test of the newly discovered violet ray treatment Every fair day the rays are concentrated and projected down Dr. Richardson's throat After several months of treatment it is said that his condition is so much improved that hopes are now entertained for his recovery. Tat TamJBf ef the threw. Miss Helen Grantly. who will assist Charles B. Haaford in the rendition of Shakespeare's great comedy, has ac quired a unique place in public estima tion in her charming impersonation of lUtheriae. Her impersonation has been described as splendid with beauty, stormy with arrogant pasmon, diversified with con tinual fluctuations of mood, subtle with the revelations of the woman's heart beneath the woman's nerversitv. and beautiful with symmetry of treatment and melody of speech. Perhaps the chief felicity of Miss Grantly 'a portrayal of the shrew is that it shows Katharine as being capable of love and strangely moved by the perception of it in her rough suitor, Petruchio. In a word, Maui Grantly does not depict a character of fares, bat a woman of life and this she doss with overwhelming vigor at the Dsgtuniag, with charming tenderness at the close, and with delicate, incessant potentiality of art all along the line of Some of the ladies of the city may be interested in knowing that Miss Grantly "wears several exquisite robes that were specially designed for her by Worth of Paris. Her gowns are said to be marvels of the dressmaker's art."

The Army and Navy Journal tells this story about the late Dr. Lewis A. Sayre of New York city: "When a young medical student at the College of Physicians and Surgeons In New York, one of the operating phy sicians was about to cut off an Irish man's leg, but before beginning the op eration gave a long talk to the students on amputation. The Irishman lay on the operating table in full possession of his faculties, and as he listened to the discourse he grew whiter and whit er. Finally he Jumped from the oper ating table, crying: 'Get me me breech es, be gob! I'll die with me teg onf And with that he was out of the room. "Dr. Sayre found him several days later with his knee badly swollen. The young doctor promptly cut open the knee, but saved the leg. One day he had no lint to bind the wound, so he used the tow stuffing sticking out of an old horsehair sofa. When he called again, he found the wound so much Im proved that he reasoned that tow dip ped In Peruvian balsam would not only disinfect a wound, but would keep It tree from pus. c "This was the foundation of one of the most satisfactory successes he ever had In surgery. It was the means of Introducing into the army the use of tarred hemp, or oakum, as a dressing for wounds." Oar ataee Wmw Xeney.

"It Is not so with the older races.

His deft pencil helped him a bit At one little village Inn he tried, to get It through the landlord's head that bo was to be called early In the morning. He couldn't make himself understood. At last he drew a picture of himself lying In bed, the sun peep ing through the window, the clock at the hour of 6 and the. chambermaid knocking at the door.

The Britisher gave the Boer a drink out of bis flask, and the burgher, not to be outdone In courtesy, handed a. piece of biltong In exchange.

"The Instant of death." says The In dian Lancet to a vague and Indefinite expression when viewed from the point of physiology. An animal or plant cannot be considered dead until It baa reached that period In disintegration where It Is Impossible to revive life. Some physiologists still further restrict the definition to that point In decay where every cell In the body of an ani mal or plant has ceased to contain or consist of living protoplasm In other words, each cell must have lost be yond recall Its life powers. Probably one of the most striking ex amples of. instantaneous death was that of the person who accidentally fell Into a large vat of boiling caustic. pot ash, which at once consumed the entire body, leaving only the metallic plates from the heels of his shoes and a few buttons from the clothing as remains. Death from electric shocks also border on the instantaneous process. It baa been found that living cells taken from the body can be preserved In a normal state for a long time and then have life processes revived If they are properly treated.
