The Queen of Fibers.

A New York paper of recent date con-

tains the following :—

“Silk—the Queen of Fibers. Which expression might be very justly reversed irto ‘the fiber of queens,’ because soon aly queens with lots of their subjects’ money to spend will be able to buy more than a yard of silk dress goods.”

If this is the condition of the silk market

in New York, the McKinley Bill must be

responsible for it.

Mrs. James Shannon, New York, who lets out furnished rooms, while cleaning up house yesterday morning, saw a light burning in the basement room, which she rented to ayoung man who refused to give his name.
