He was AdvertUed for Sonp Every "Speaking ot curious" customs," said the towntown man. "one of the strangest I ever heard of was the renting out of a live turtle for green turtle soup.

Yes. sir; I mean renting out, and you needn't stare at me. There used' to be one old turtle that for many- weeks brought in his owner a regular steady Income, all because of the popularity of soup that went under that name," eays the New York Herald man. "You know the dozens of little restaurants that put out a big, flaring Sign every once in a While, 'GTeeh turtle soup Well, to make that turtle soup a drawing card lt'is necessary to put a live turtle on his back by the door, directly under the placard, the presumption on the part of the public being that this very animal will the next day be converted into the popular delicacy advertised. "Now, genuine turtles are and these little restaurants do a small trade and make only a email living -lor the proprietor at best.

Any quantity of the green, turtle soup advertised Is not green turtle at all, only a tasty mixture out of veal, delicately flavored. But the live turtle outside day before was needed, and that was where- myiTrlend came' in." "He had famous old turtle Cat he affectionately called and he auickly saw the chance of turning an honest penny with him. Going around to two Or three of the cheap restaurants that liked to placard green turtle, he broached his project to them, offering Tom' to each for a day for the price of J1.60. The idea took, and each morning the turtle would be delivered, put on his back in a warm corner outside, and the old placard dusted and hung up. The next day- customers would crowd the little room to eat what they were sure was green turtle soup, and 'Tom' would be doing duty in the same way in front of an eating-iouse half a dozen blocks away, "Soon that turtle was regularly engaged for Ave days In the week 'and his master had a good thing of It In a small way.

It would, have been permanent I suppose, If the turtle had not died from they said it was overwork. I don't know how those restaurants that were in the scheme are making out at present." .7 Cnmbrons Legal Machinery. (I. J.

Unless the latter-can show that throughout' the long and wearisome trial he made no mistakes, the case is sent back for new trial by which time the witnesses have generally disappeared. The consequences of prolonged discussions and voluminous judicial essays on such details as the empanelling of a Jury, the spelling of a juror's name, the Initials of a witness, or the omission or misstatement of some legal, fiction or antiquated phrase, tend not only to remove punishment far off from the criminal, but to depreciate the dignity and usefulness of courts. The decision of the court that tried the case comes to be of small consequence in public estimation, when it may be and often is reversed by some distant Judge 'whenever saw the jury or heard a witness.

The Supreme Court sustained tne validity of the appropriations to carry out the sugar-bounty features of the McKinley and Wilson tariff act by unanimous opinion affirming the decision-of the Circuit Court of the Eastern District of Louisiana, and reversing the action of Comptroller of the Treasury Bowler, who refused to permit payment of bounties, on the ground that the act was unconstitutional. The cases involved were those of the United States, plaintiff in error, vs. the Realty Company and Andrew M. Gay. respectively.

The opinion of tne court was delivered by Justice Peck-ham. Both were test cases. The Realty Company was one of a class coming under the terms of the appropriation to those who had manufactured a certain class of sugar previous to the 28th day of August, 1894, and upon which no bounty had previously been paid. The repeal of the bounty clause in the act of 1890 by the act which took effect on the 28th of August, 1894, and which prohibited the payment of bounties thereafter, prevented the company from obtaining the money on the warrant which had been issued to It prior to that date; There were comparatively persons coming under the class in Which the company stood, and the appropriation made for the payment of that class a. little less, than The plaintiff in the other suit, Mr.

is one of a class under the second portion of the act of 1895, he being among those who complied with the provisions of the bounty act as contained in the schedules of the act of 1890, by filing notice of application for license and bond as therein required, and who would-have been entitled to receive a license as; provided for. in said act and a bounty of eight-tenths of a cent per pound' on the sugar actually manufactured by him during the period commencing August 28, 1894, and ending June 30, 1895. The amount of bounty claimed by Gay is between $8000 and $9000. Ther persons forming this class are numerouse, and the, appropriation for them amounted to $5,000,000. Comptroller Bowler had based his action larsplv upon.he of Court of Appeals of the District, of Columbia, that the sugar-bounty clause of the McKinley act was unconstitutional.

The Supreme Court in its opinion today said that for the purposes of the cases, it was unnecessary to decide whether such legislation is beyond the pwer of. Congress, but that in either oase the appropriations of, money in the act of 1895 to manufacturers and producers of sugar who had complied with the act. of 1890, were within the power of Congress to make and were, constitutional and valid. In discussing the conditions which existed at the time of the passage of the appropriation act of 1895, the court "The production of this manufacture of sugar in the Southern and Western States from sugar cane and from sorghum and beets had become at the' time of the passage of the act or 1890, an Industry in which large numbers of citizens of this country were engaged, and its prosecution Involved the use of a large amount of capital. The tariff, therefore, had been very high on Imported sugar, and that industry had thereby been fostered and greatly The subject of how to treat this Industry was under discussion in Congress wile the.tarift act of 1890 waa before it, and it finally decided' the question by enacting the bounty clause of that act." Before, that time the revenue' derived from Imported sugar had amounted to nearly $60,000,000 in one To put sugar on the free list would reduce the revenue that amount but at the same time, It was urged Jn Congress, might ruin'thepersons engaged In the industry in this country.

So the tariff on sugar was reduced while at the same time a bounty, was placed upon its production here of an amount which was thought would equal the protection the industry had heretofore enjoyed under the tariff. The act was approved by the President, and no question of its validity was made by any officer of the government having any duties to perform under it. act large sums of money were paid to sugar manufacturers as a bounty, and no officer of the government questioned the validity of the act. This condition continued for about three years. In.

the winter, spring, and summer of 1894 It is a matter of history that the discussion of the tariff acf, which finally became a law on the 28th of August of that year, was continually going on in Congress and through the public prints of the country. Before the passage of the act it was, of coursie, wholly uncertain as to what' provisions would be Included as to the question of bounty for the manufacture of sugar. No man could predict No one could have stated whether the bounty Would be taken off entirely or materially reduced or left as it stood ty the act of 1890. The whole question of tariff legislation at that time was full of uncertainty; In the meantime the season was approaching when the manufacturer of sugr must what to do. He was confronted with the.

fact that the act of 1890 was still in existence and under Its provisions 'he must, If he meant to avail himself of the bounties which must be payable under the act, make his application for and obtain a license prior to July 1 of that year. In his application for licende he was compelled to give a general description of the machinery and methods to be employed by him with -an amount of sugar proposed to be produced In the current year and his application would have to be accompanied by a bond that he would faithfully observe the rules and regulations that would be prescribed for the manufacture and production of sugar. If he made application and obtained his licensee and commenced the manufacture of sugar under the provisions of the act of 1S90 he could not be certain that the Congress might strike out altogether the. provisions for the payment of any bounty and he be left in such a condition that he could neither manufacture with. profit nor abstain from manufacturing without loss.

A Noteworthy: Cycling; Experiment Participated In by Women. (BY ASSOCIATED PRESS WIKE. NEW YORK, May 25. A special to the world from Berlin says that the first stage of a noteworthy cycling experiment was brought to a close here by the arrival of seventy-six members, Including five ladles, of the Vienna Rad-rein Verbnd, who came to visit the Berlin Industrial Exposition. Leaving Vienna Tuesday morning, they rode via Prague and Dresden, covering a distance close on to 500 miles without accident -or dropping out a member.

They suffered seHous Inconveniences and delay owing to rains, with consequent heavy roads, but they kept together the whole time, and the party reached Templehof Field early this morning intact. 1 This Is regarded as a striking demonstration of the utility of the bicycle, as compared with horses, for covering long distances. Last year a body of picked horsemen, officers in the Austrian and Ge-rman armies, attempted the same Journey with horses, the effort resulting in the breaking down of several of the riders and the death of some of the horses, while- others were so exhausted that they were, rendered useless. The Viennese cycling partly, one and all, arrived in good condition. They visited the exhibition during the day, and propose to start, on the return Journey In the course of a week.

Tney met cordial treatment along the road, and are greatly pleased with the success of their novel excursion, which is certain to be extensively Imitated. OVERLAND PARK. June Meeting at Denver to Eclipse Prior Events. (BY ASSOCIATED PRESS tTIRE. DENVER May 25.
