Quring the last-few days Mrs. Pearcey has been much broken down. Instead of maintaining the calm front which she showed at her trial, she frequently throw herself on the bed and sobbed convt; slvely. But she made no confession until this morning. Her mother saw her for the last time last night. During the night Mrs. Pcarqfty was quiet and re­ signed. She got up early tills morning and prayed for some hours. To the Chap­ lain she acknowlenged that tho sentence was Just, at the same time asserting that much-of the evidence was faL<e. She never mentioned Hogg, and gave tho Im­ pression that she alone was guilty of the murders. The hanging passed off without inci­ dent, tho unhappy woman dying almoat instantly. The cnimc was committed In October. Mrs. Pearcey and Frank Hogg had been friendly before Hogg's marriage, and were intimato afte| It.

Mrs. Pearcey was madly In Jove with Hogg, and maintained an appearance of friendship with Mrs. Hcgg, who know -nothing of the Inti­ macy. Mrs. Pearcey Invited Mrs. Hogg to visit her one afternoon and bring tho baby, then eighteen months old. Ac­ cording to Mrs. Pearcey’s partial confes­ sion Mrs. Hogg‘came, and they had some words. What followed was shown by some blood stains in the kitchen and tho finding of the bodies of Mrs. Hogg and child. After braining Mrs. Hogg yith a poker and cutting her throat, Mrs. Pearcey probably suffocated the child. Then, under coyer of darknqss, she con­ veyed the body of .Mrs. Hogg about a mile in the bjtby carriage and left It on the roadside. The body of tho child she deposited in afield. The police suspect­ ed her from .her actions when she went with Clara Hogg, the murdered woman's slster-ln-iaw, to identify the body of Mrs. Hogg. Search of her house revealed tho evidence of murder.

Tho clamorous crowd appeared sure of their quarry, but ho hoped that the jury would not allow themselves to bo Influ­ enced by this clamor. Eyraud. he continued, had been an Industrious man, but had be­ come weak iu the hands of a woman. Tho vrll Influence of Mlle. .Bompard had mad* him a mere puppet. Proceeding, M. Decorl contended that Bompard and nut Epraud conceived the crime for which they were now being tried. Tho criminal intention uf both, bo said, was not to murder M.

Ho doubts the possibility of in­ fluencing a hypnotized x>ee»on to commit a crime under a *u*pen*lon «>f the will, -and thinks It fmpoasfble to suggest successfully any but the simplest action. Dr. Brouardol ir.--itanced cases of tho moral conscience surviving under hypnotism. At Halpetriere two women who had been mesmerized were ordered to undress. One obeyed, but the other, restrained by an obvious feeling of modesty, refuted to obey and went Into a nervous fit. Eyraud and Gabrielle Bompard murdered Gouffe in tho room of the woman at No. 3 Ruo Tronsog,. Ducj>udray. They put the body of A their victim in a trunk and set off with it for Lyon*, where It was subsequently found in u ditch. An Inquest was held, but th/ man was not identified.

The storm extended, according tix the reports of the signal service weathsr observer, from Wood'* Holl. Ma.**-, southwest to Lynchburg, Va-, and" west­ ward to Duluth, Minn. Kain at that hour covered the Southern States from Washington, D. C., to Jackranville,. Fla., along the Atlantic ccast. and in­ land as far as tho MiwlMippi River. The high wind, which at P-30 o'clock: had a velocity of thirty-erne adieu an hour from tho northeast, enured the, snow to form In many place* late drifts. Many of these drifts were nearly three, feet In height, and those who had towork their way through them found pedestrianiitm anything except pleasant. Th* high wind, however, was a blereing - to many a householder, as it drove the anow In waves from off the roofs of houses almost aa soon as It fell The storm worked so rapidly after it. struck New York that early morning traffic was seriously impeded. Net since . the blizzard has there>«o m> pointed Oremlnder of the Imperative oeccMity for Improved rapid transit In this city. There was more or less delay on thoWest Side, but tho East Side was seri­ ously embarrassed daring the early rush, hours. Those who suffered moitfrom tlte loss of time were the residents of' Harlem. • About 11 a. m, began a heavy sleet,, which cut tho faces of redestrians llkepln points and added to the misery <-f those who were forced to do any amount of walking. The snow in. the West and to the.* with of the city interfered seriously with the progress of . mall trains In this direction. All the malts from the West via Pittsburgh, theSouthwest, and the South were several hours behind time. The early morning malls from the North and West, how­ ever, arrived on time, as the storm had not reached those points so as to stop, the progress of the trains. The trains which arrived during the forenoon were further Impeded by the heavy snow in the streets, the mall wagons being un­ able to reach the general postoffice within the time allotted for tho transfer of the mails from the railway stations to that building. Malls from Brooklyn were also delayed on the bridge. ’ All tho railroad* running Into New York have suffered from the storm, but. some, of course, have suffered more than others where more exposed to-the heavy drifts. In Westchester County the snow Is'plled tip along the tracks of the Hud­ son River railroad, but has not thus far Impeded travel much. The delays on the railroads in Now­ Jersey were not »o serious this morning as they were later in the day, when the fast falling snow was drifted in someplaces, to a formidable height. Tho. snow ceased falling at 8 o’clock and was. followed by a slight rain and sleet storm. The thermometer rose to 29 degrees, above zero. At midnight the wind was northwest.- The Indications for to-mor­ row are more snow or rain with a de­ cided lowering of the temperature. Reports continue to be received from all parts of Now York State showing a. heavy fall of snow and consequent Inter­ ruption of traffic. In the Mohawk Valley the storm I* unusually severe. At 0 o'clock this even­ ing more than eight Inches of snow had fallen at Amsterdam, and it was still snowing hard. Railroad travel is greatly delayed, some of the through trains be­ ing from two to,three hours late. West. Shore freight-trains have been stalled In the snow this afternoon and the flangers, have been starv'd outAt the Pennsylvania depot it was re­ ported that Western express-trains wererunnlng from three to three and a half hour* behind time. The trains were being run cautiously, which was theprincipal cause of the delay, as the en­ tire force of laborers out on each block keeping the tracks free from snow, and the detention.by snow-drifts had been trifling. The Philadelphia trains wcro from thirty minutes to an hour behind scheduled time and local trains wens about half an hour late. Trains wcredlspatched nearly on schedule time. The Erie road experienced the greatest, difficulty, and all through trains were from five to six hours late. At Lock port, N. Y.. the fall of snow has been continuous, throughout the day» but is not heavy. The snow Is not drift­ ing badly. Temperature In the morning was reported al ten degrees above zero, and at oue o'clock it had risen to twentydivo degrees. At Ithaca, N. Y.. tho storm continued throughout the day, with strect-cartraffic suspended. At Watertown, N. Y.,_snow has been falling rapidly, accompanied by mild breezes. The thermometer last night was five degrees below, and this morning fourabove zero. At Saratoga Springs tho heaviest and most severe snow storm since the mem­ orable blizzard of March, 1887, has been in progress, and this evening Indicatlonswere that it will continue during the.night.

Lawyer Elsworth, af Middleville, was arrested Tueadav on the charge of being a much-married man.

' It wm several w»wk* before either Eugene or bis mother took any stope to learn, any particulars of the man who bore such' a strange resomblance to Alphonse Bregy. Eugene bud opened a grocery In Har­ lem. and one day while in a drug store be was looking over tho directory, without any. speclr.! object other than to pu* the time while the clerk filled a prescription for hia mother. * When ho turned to the “E’s" the thought flashed through his mind to look for Mr. Emerick's address. Ho 'found It, and: taking a note-book from hia pocket, be entered both tho residence address and that of the office. ' ” The first time he was down-town he sough tout the place on Fear! street and entering the office lie inquired of ono of the clerks if Mr. Emerick was in. Had Mr. Emerick been there'Eugene would hardly have known how to act. but he . had good reason to believe that thogen• tieman for whom he was inquiring wail * in a foreign land; so he took the risk in . order to get a look round the office and try to learn something of his where­ about* It chanced that the clerk to whom Eugene addressed bis inquiry was Hooch, and it also happened that Mr. Bellow had forgotten to tell that indi­ vidual not to inform any one where Mr. ;Emerick had gone. Consequently when Eugene asked: "Is Mr. Emerick in?* Gooch replied: “No. sir. he is not He Is at Buenos Ayres by this time." “How soon will he roturn?*’ askod Eugene. “It may bo next month, may be next year and may bo never," wm the reply. . • “Poor chance of seeing this father of mine." thought Eugene. Then,'after a moment’s pause, ho turned to the clerk and merely said: “Thank you. good-day.” aud turned on his heel. , The door of the office was fitted with a patent air spring and as tho door wm closing quietly Eugenn beard a voleo call out inside: •■Gooch, you fool, why did you tell that fellow that Mr. Emerick wm in Buonos Ayres?" Tho closing of the door shut off the reply, but the remark sot Eugene to wondering, and when he reached home he told his mother what he had heard. • “Eugene,** said his mother, "I am m sure as 1 am living that tho man who wont aboard that steamer is your father and if I bad the (ponoy to do it I would follow him to Buenos Ayrek or any other place until I forced him to ac­ knowledge us." “The only thing that wo can do, mother, is to wait until wo can make enough money to afford to travel so far. In tho meantime he may come back to ‘New York; I know where his rooms are and I nm going to keep a sharp lookout t -for him. But," continued Eugene after ' a pause: "Hr may newr come back. That is what tho clerk said." \ “Thon all we can do is to wait-and hope that ho will come across our path,” said his mother. Tho new kind of life had very much improved Mrs. Bregy’s appearance. Her face wore its natural color again and in her new clothes she looked very different from the poor cMtaway who us* d to sell the evening papers at the Brooklyn ferries . Eugene's business prospered. He was making money in bls wtore and by the । r*nd of ' Deo mber he Lad bought himw 'if a hone and wagon.

The ball ;>ai*c(i off pleasantly, but several times during the evening Percy felt that the attentions which Armida wm receiving from a crowd of admirers worried him consid­ erably and he began to wonder whether it would be safe to leave her among such a crowd of eligible men. During his absence she might possibly meet one who would capture her free heart. In that case she would never know that he had loved her ujnlesa he told her now.

CHATTER XL When Percy arrived at Buenos Ayres he did not rush wit’j precipitate haste to Emerick A Ca's office; he took up his quarters at a q.det English hotel and then wont systematically to work to find out what be could about Mr. Emerick. There wm little to be learned^however, for all he could bear wm that"Emerick lived in quiet se­ clusion in s hand sumo modem resi­ dence lying to the north of the town, which had been previously occupied by Mr. Howe, his partner, au l family. When not at business Emerick wm re­ ported to spend his time at this house, where bo would sometimes entertain a few friends, particularly some Spanish gentlemen, who, strange to say, were not admitted to the better society of Buenos Ayres. To the-:u gnests of Emerick's the houses of the civH au­ thorities were not open, neither did sny of tho numerous wealthy foreign residents invite them to their tables. Yot it wm no uncommon thing for thefc to spend the evening and greater part of* the night at Mr. Emericfct^ house, and one of the servants had onoe told a confidential friend outside that their amusement, consisted almost en­ tirely of playing cards, drinking wine and smoking. Yet Mr. Emerick was exceedingly strict in hi* attendance to business and was regularly seen at his desk in tho office of Emerick A Co., in a large four-story modern buaincM block situated near to the custom­ house. Only very seldom did the mer­ chant appear at the theater.

When he did he moved about as though afraid of being seen. It was hardly the place where one would expect to see a person of bls position and that was prob­ ably hi* reason for bls cautious move­ ment^. Percy followed HU man rather ' dloaely as he went toward* the stage dtxir where ha met a lady Just coming out Together they walked across tho I’laaaand found a conveyance which was • evidently waitin ’ tor them, for, without a word to the driver,nhry took their scat* and srere driven away. “The more 1 see of this man the more of a mystery do»-s ho Become to me; but I would like to got a good look at him face to face once,’’ soliloquized Lovel. Tins opportunity was not long de­ layed, for a tew dayj later Percy was seated on one of the marble seats in tho shade of the Paradise trees pn the Plaza Victoria when who should approach but Mr. Emerick. Percy was reading a portion of a London paper which bod arrived on the Inst mail, and was handed to him by au English army officer at tho hotel. He hardly knew Low to ac­ cost Emi-riuia but resorted to gory sim­ ple tactics by asking him in the free and easy manner which ho had acquired in America, if be would permit him to take a light from hl* cigar.

Not all who are breathing city smoke are circumstanced to Ueavu it at will for the woods of Michigan and Wisconsin. Therefore I will divide with such unfor­ tunates, so far as I nm able, the pleas­ ures of a Journey which I have taken into the woods of Wisconsin. My first glimpse of lumbering life was tiatf before I was fairly jsettled down in my seat in tho Wisconsin Central train, on which I had shipped from Chicago to Ashland, Wla . Tho car began to fill rapidly with a sot of hale and hearty young mon In "store । .j .

From their talk, which was by no means conducted in an undertone, I learned that there were about forty men on board bound for the lumber woods. Some wore new hands going to take "tbeir first lesson £ in logging, but the most of them bad seen more than one season In camp. And what a rollicking set tho latter were! If they were going Into hardships ft was evident that they “know the worst" and were prepared to make the bttt of It. Two of the company, •who seemed to be leaders of the crew, pre-empted the two rear seats of tho car. jerked their touts, shed their coats and In short order prepared to make a night of iu *TU tell yon, boys, we missed our op­ portunity to-day! We ought to have got roarin' drunk" said one of them. Tills sentiment over a lost opportunity to make a full day of it In Chicago was heartily echoed by the remainder of the When the cross-fire of stories and banter began to lag one of the leaders •drew forth from the depths of a black .sachet a nmllectlon of popular songs." Tho first selection was “Little Annie Rooney.” and the clear, strong tenor In •which It was rendered made me almost forgive him. As he wanned to his work a change seemed to come over tho spirit of his dreams, and tho “popular airs” of tho street gave place to the d>-ar old tunes that havo thrilled hearts from the days ■of yore. It was with regret that I saw him -close the book and pur It away, taking from his sachol Instead a flask of liquor, which ho passed to his com­ panions and sampled himself. Still another plunge Into tho aacbel •brought forth an elaborate night-shirt, which was greeted with more cheers than even the bottle. It was very ovl•dent that lie was determined t® make It known that he Indulged In tho embellish­ ments of civilization at least once a year. After ceremoniously wrapping his bottle in the garment he subsided for the Alight, until a fat little boy in a red flan­ nel waist came along to play with the laiKet of tho drinklnc-watcr lank. -ILto, sonny! Looking for a bunk? Just you camp right down there, soon's I move my feet Come, don't bo bash­ ful! You've got to look out for No. 1 or they won't no one look out for you. Mebbo you're cold? Just let me spread tuy coat over vou." When be had made the child comfort­ able he quickly dropped into slumber. In the morning, when we had passed through tho burned district and were ■well Into the Bad River country, the «aw mills began to appear. At ono.of these mill stations our forty lumbermen left the train, being met by a company of old companions, who were clad in •triped, checked and variegated macki­ naw jackets, with dangling belt# that combined In each garment the most pos»tlve shades of every color. Bnt to the woods. To see them at their grandest, one •bould visit them In October, when tho wonderful autumn colors are at their rrenr.d of the errrirrreita to wn an ana enhance their beauty. A# you enter one of thm* great foresta ©f towering pin**, the n*«in<ms aroma that greet# you on every brecm, and ris*s from the yielding carpet of Pine needle# beneath your feel. Is grateful and refreshing beyond expression: but it Is not until you have reached tho place where th* sawyer# arc waking the echow of thfl wood with the "ching! chlng* chins! ching!" of their cross­ cut mw, as It slips backward and forward through the fragrant wood, that you catch the firtt odor of “forests primeval." Strange that no chemist has sought to reproduce It in a "perfume." for society would quickly make it a fashionable But tho odor of pine and tamarack Is not rhe only subtle and pleasing perfume that you meet In thb lumber woods. At every open space, especially In the "burnings." where a forest fire ha# swept through tho standing timber, you1 will find tho ground thickly covered with the dark leaves of tho Wintergreen, tho berries of which grow to surprising size and perfection, and have a flavor as aromatic and delicious as tbeir coloring Is delicate. • But on to camp! And for the sake of haste we will step out of the thick woods onto tho “siding” or railway switch, which Invariably penetrates to a camp of any size, excepting where the logs are floated down a stream to some Mw-mlll or shipping point As a camp presents the most interest­ ing scene In winter. 1 havo chosen that season for illustration. With tho possible exception of the foreman, the cook is by far tho most Importent and highly esteemed persona ?o in- chmp. Ill# favor I# courted and curried to a flattering extent. But tht.t Is not the only way tn which his importance Is attested. His name leads the pay-roll. And well it may, for the loading question which loggers raise, In deciding with what camp they will cast their lot Is, Which has the best cook? The ex­ tent to which this consideration- out­ weighs all others was emphasized to inn when the news came in one day that the entire crew of a neighboring camp had “struck" because a cook whose services commanded $75 a month had been dis­ charged to give place for ono who could command but gac. Tho cook’s assistant Is called the “cookfie.” Tho other principal employes of a camp are tho foreman, sawyers, team­ sters, skidders and the “road-monkeys.” and, In camps where legs are floated, tho driver#. The wages of loggers range from 825 to 840, and sometimes even $50 a month. .. .. ....... It Is quite .. a ________ common_____ Idea____________ that trees are felled with an axe, but that Is not' the case. That Is done with a cross-cut saw, operated by two sawyers, who accomplish the dowp fall of a big plno lu an Incredibly short time. The tree Is then cut Into logs of proper length and turned over to the skidders, who elevate them by -cant­ hooks, chains and ox-teams onto skids, from which they are finally loaded for shipment In the Illustration may be seen saw­ yers at work, logs on akld. end a haul­ ing team Just loadini by the skidders and ox-team.- The man standing in front of tho horses by the sawyrrA’ with a wood<*n mallet over his shoulder, Is a wedge man. whose duty ft Is to Insert the wedged-shaped axe­ head into the cut made by tho «a w M soon as the blade of tho latter has pene­ trated beyond its depths. As fast as the saw. begins to bend the axe-head Is driven lu with the maul behind the saw blade to relieve the pressure on tho blade. The road monkeys are stationed at the steep inclines along the winter roadways over which the heavy loads of logs are hauled. When a load approaches going down the Incline, tliea? road monkeys scatter wisps of hay In front of the sled runners, to act as brakes upon the smooth sled shoes, and prevent the load from plunging down upon the rear of the hon-rs. The hay is of courtM removed autumn foliage take ou when a team Is righted going up the facile tints and display grade.

Much of tiro labor of lumbering takes the crews too far from camp to return for the mid-day meal. In that case din­ ner is brought them by the ‘'cookee" or the tote sled—tho latter being the name by which the sled used for hauling sup­ plies Is designated—and eaten "on the spot." Such a dinner In tho woods Is. too cheerful and picturesque a scene to bo passed without illustration. But the most cheerful occasion of all Is the hearty supper, to the enjoyment of which they bring large appetites and the weariness of the day’s labor, knowing that they are' at liberty to Unger over it as tong as they choose. This meal Is spread within tho warm log shanty, upon a table of plain pine boards. An oil-cloth usually does duty for u table-cloth. After supper they gather about the long box stove and pass tho evening hours In recounting tho experiences of other days: aud as these crews are made up of “all sortsand conditions of moy," who from causes as varied as their faces havo drifted together from tho four cor­ ners of .the earth, their adventures and memories take in tho whole range of human experience, “From grave to gay. from lively to revere.” It Is not an Infrequent circumstance to find within such a circle -men of fine learning and polite birth, and. although their presence may sometimes be ac­ counted for by misfortune. It Is almost universally the result of dissipation, and many a pitiful tale Is locked within their Ups, which even the rude cheer of an evening's “recollections” around the tiro at camp will never draw forth. But whatever their faults of follies, as Sey break up that social circle about o fire, to turn Into their rough bunks or do a bit of rude patching, let us wish them a hearty good night, and bear thorn a kindly thought when wo look upon our own comfortable homos, made possible fay their hard labor. Forrest Crlssky. A work of coloawal magnitude has begun, at the northeast corner at Fifth avenue and Fifty-ninth street, New York. At present only the prepara­ tory excavations have been made, but these are of such depth and so much in keeping with the projected struct-' ore that all who have seen them are astonished. And well they might be. The depth' of the excavations ranges from twenty-two to forty feet. This has been necessary so as to have a rock basis whereon to raise this mighty ed­ irice. The rock will have to bo blasted to render it even. On this foundation will rise William Waldorf Astor’s new hotel, which is to be the loftiest in the world. It is to havo seventeen stories aud will be 225 foot high. The tile is 100 feet fronton Fifth avenue by 125 feet deep on Fifty­ ninth street. The first four stories will be of rough-hewn brown stone, with Roman arched entrances on the side and front.

If h« should miss a comfortable old coat or n pair of pants of a bagglnes* too pal table for Pali Moll, ho knows that Mr*. Gladstone has been making a raid oa bls wardrobe, sighs, smiles and says nothing. Mr. Gladstone Is not a rich man. Ithas been estimated that his private Income does not exceed £7,000 a year, and the demands made upon the purse ox a man in his- position are enormous- In the conrse of every year he receives many pre«Jut* from humb'c admirers often specimens from workingmen of their handicraft; and his return gift In almost every caw- Is his photograph bearing his now -f amil lar au togre ph. AH the world I* aware of Mr.’ Glad­ stone’s prowess as a woodman. When residing at Hawarden Cutie a week never passes lii which ho docs not spend at least a few hours in tho open air try­ ing the edge of his famou* axe upon the big trees. Rut the great xolare cf his old ago Is reading, and the hobby to which he Is mo?t passionately devoted Is the collection of old and ran books. He can never pa»s a second-hand book shop without stopping to examine tho stock. There is not one second-hand bookseller of*any note In London who does not r< gularly send cstilogurs to Mr. Glad-, stone, and he receives qirly Inilmdtlon of anything good In the shape of rare or curious editions to be obtained ut a mod­ erate price. During tho session Mr. Gladstone Is very regular e in his attendance at tho House, but be* doe« not remain late ex­ cept when a great debate Is In progress or an important division exiweted. When not actually engaged In debate but sitting as an interested listener Mr. Gladstone has hard work to suppress his natural Inclination to Jump up and join In the fray, and he has a curious habit of betraying his eagerness and impatience by grabbing his knees and clutching at tho air with his muscular fingers. Every member knows when Mr. Gladstone is about to make an important spi>pch, the event being heralded by Mrs. Gladstone’s appearance In th/ ladles' gallery, while the great man himself wears a flower In his coat and places on the table before him a little bottle full of a thlcklsh yel­ low liquid, generally understood to be a kind of egg flip. It Is made by Mr& Gladstone from her own secret reclnc, and It always has a wonderfully restora­ tive effect on the orator. Occasionally within the last few years symptoms of deterioration have been noticed In Mr. Gladstone's superb voice, but when last heard in the House It was very full, strong and musical. In Parlia­ ment Mr. Gladstone gesticulates more freely than he does on the platform. During the more vehement passage of a speech he thumi>s the big brass-bound box which lies before him. and at times, especially when roused by Tory Interrup­ tions, he stretches hires If almost across ten Inches and loan. He has no hair on his face and Httlo on his head, but his baldness Is not very apparent when be wears a hat, because there is a fair growth of silvery gray locks around the base of the skull. Mr. Gladstone owes his unique virili­ ty in great measure to the regularity, slmpllcy and purity of his private life. His Ilin*’ Is about equally divided be­ tween London and Hawarden, his beau­ tiful estate In Flintshire. He has no town mansion properly so called, but hires a house each year for tho parlia­ mentary session of from six' to seven months. When In town he usually rises at half past 8 o’clock. Detesting lazi­ ness and abhorring slovenliness, ho es­ chews dressing gown or lounge coats, and always drosses for the day as soon as he leaves his bed. When his toilet is completed ho goes to church, or. if the weather Is bad. he lakes a book and reads until breakfast time. The morning meal Is invariably shared by Mrs. Gladstone and visitors If there bo any. which is rarely the case in Lon­ don, It Is always of a plain character, usually consisting of fish, bread and butter and tea. Mr. Gladstone is very fond of fish of all kinds, and drinks enough tea in jth© twenty-four hours to sat sfy half a dozen old maids. After breakfast Mr. Gladstone Invari­ ably proceed* to the library, where he disposes of/'nls Immense mas* of corre­ spondence. whtah, he once informed a friend, aggregates twenty thousand let­ ters a year. When In office ho had the assistance of several private secretaries; now that he Is In opposition he docs not employ a paid assistant, but does tho whole of ,the work with tho help of Mis son No arrears are permitted to accu­ mulate, each day’s work being disposed of as It comes to hand.

Il remains to be said that Mr. Glad­ crises, or by business, public or pri­ stone Is -richly blessed in his domestic vate, of the most urgent importance. Mr. Gladstone takes luncheon almost relations. His wife has been his devoted Invariably alone, eating only a small helpmatA for more than titty years, and slice of beef or mutton und 'drinking his bearing toward her Is still, that of a devoted lover.

At the exposition nt Marseilles i« anautico-terrestrial velocipede, which is attracting much attention. The figure indicates the manner of locomotion. Each of the three wheels is made of two bi-convex lenses seeled together, with a band of rubber along the oppo- ' site line, which, l>esides being used u» a binder, also serves as a tire for the wheel during laud travel. A dozen or more little wing-like paddles ou either side of each wheel serve to propel th© vehicle, the feet being used to give th© power to a set of triple cog-wheels on the inside of the fore wheel. The- mechanism is nothing more than am ordinary velocipede, such as is used in. this country, the wheels being flanked by the two shell-like convex lenses of sheet iron, on which are welded tho little wing-like paddles. St. Peter walking ou the water would hardly prove a match in point of speed for Monsieur le Frenchman, nor would th© latter need ouite the amount of faith that* failed the fisherman of old.

The burglars, who are supposed to have been two tramps that were seen In that part of town late in the evening, secured a good overcoat and a few old coins that Mr. Boise had collected. The coins were in a box on a bureau and In a drawer in the bureau was thirty-five dollars In gold which they did not take. On the same night Samuel Blocker’s house, on Phillipa street, was broken into but an overcoat was all that was tak­ en; the burglars are probably the same ones that raided Mr. Bolse’r house.

At a meeting of a paper manufacturing firm not long sinoc it was stated that the firm used 250 tons of coal per week, and that au increase iu the price of coal made on increase of 812,000 per annum in' the fuel bill and a consequent re­ duction of 4 per cent, in the divideno. A very moderate estimate of tlie heater which raises, the feed-water from a nor­ mal temperature to about 200 degrees is tbe saving of 10 per cent of the fuel used. This, where coal costa about 85 per ton and where, a» in the case just stated, 250 tons per seek are Used, reprewnte a yearly saving of $6,280, or probably a dividend of from 50'per cent, to CO per cent, annually on the capital- expended on the feed-water heater apparatus. Tn a Japanese paper the case is men­ tioned of a man aged 40 thia year, liv­ ing in the Province of Bizen. who has married aud divorced*thirtv-fivo wives, Mui fa now married to the thirty-sixth. He was first married at 18, and the reason assigned for this extraordinary example of ibeonsistency is that he has a younger sister of extremely jealous and rancorous disposition, who, from the moment that a bride enters the house, institutes a system of jiersecution which soon drives the unhappy woman to ask her husband for a di­ vorce. The husband is helpless to re­ strain the vagaries of his sister, and cannot turn her out, so tho wretohed business goes on year after year. In Japan, it may be mentioned^ freedom of divorce is in the inverse ratio of the social prominence of the parties con­ cerned. The more important the posi­ tion occupied by a man, the less fickle­ ness aud caprice is lie expected to show iu such matters; whence it follows that the spirit of Japanese civilization makes for tbe permanency of the mar­ riage tie.

And, speaking of the present mode of dressing the hair, I should warn the debutante to exert herself to keep her head as small and clean-cut as possible, and especially when dressing for evening receptions and dancing parties, to draw the hair well up from tho neck and coll it on top of the head, where she may imitate the frisure Josephine—fee any engrav­ ing of that celebrated beauty—or rise she may wave it slightly on the brow, and.turn tho rest back as was done by Marie Antoinette—a very charming style, by the way, when the hair grows well down on the forehead. But, as a general rule, a woman should not dis­ play too much intellectuality.

Tom Navix, one of the most remark­ able young men this State has erersecn. and a convict in the State Penitentiary fur seven years, has been pardoned.- Ills history is greater than the wildest ro­ mance. At the age of 21 he was elected Mayor of Adrian. .-One year later ho was re-elected, and always was called the “kid” Mayor. He kept tho fastest horses and best rigs in Adrian. He vis­ ited Chicago, and on his return the story flew abroad that the “kid” Mayor had won 850.000 at a flyer in wheat. Tho good people believed all this, and he floated along in a limo light of pleasure, wine suppers and gay turn-outs. The “kid” Mayor was worshiped by Adrian people, and nothing he did shocked thrir morality. One day the kid disappeared, and It was found that half the farms in Lenawee County were cumbered by bogus mortgages Issued by him. Tho Clark estate, of Adrian, had bought 81)8,ooo of the*<' worthless securities from tho Mayor, a New York insurance com­ pany had invested 3103,000, and friends and neighbors ot the “kid” were ruined Iu all directions. A year after his flight tho Mayor camo back and surrendered, pleaded guilty and was sentenced to ten years’ imprisonment.

A Detroit man of a mathematical turn of mind has figured out that there are 31.570 farmers in Michigan of for­ eign birth, and 8,067 brought money with them to the extent of 84,633,188. Tho value of tho farms now owned by tho whole number, as assessed, fa 852,­ 537,071. On these farms arc mortgages of 311,101,714. The money they brought with them added to this amount makes a total of 815,824,902, showing a gain of 838,712,060. But as the assessed value Is from 25 to 40 per cent, less than the selling value, it would make tbe real value of these farms 865,672.338. Then deduct the original capital, and the mortgages show a net increase of 850.DOO.OOO. Thia is on the real estate alone. Add tho personal property, slock, agri­ cultural Implements, etc., and some millions more must be placed to the credit account • Aud as to the mechani­ cal class: Of tho 8,828 employes engaged In miking agricultural Implements, 3,­ 747 are foreign born. Of this number 1,017 brought money with them to the extent of 8176,354. The prerent value of the whole number is 83,603,610.

Not that she real­ ly imagined Armida was in love with him. but inasmuch as his lot in life seemed to be cast in so different a chan­ nel to Armida's she thought it well to enforce her motherly prerogative just a little, as a precautionary measure.

But I do like people to say something, even if it is disagreeable, when I sing a song, and especially one of my own composing," she said in a half joking manner. But the young man before her was in no joking mood. "Could It be,"hu thought, in a moment of almost ccstacy, “that she meant those words for mo?" And as ho pondennl be said to himself: “Some day I will ask her.” • Just at this moment Mr. Wilcox looked over to Mrs. Delaro and said: “Is that Harlem gentleman going to stay here all night?" “They certainly must be too busily engaged to notice tho time,*’ was tho reply, “but I will remind Armida, by walking into the parlor, that 1 am pre­ paring to retire." and with these words she rose to put her words into effect. When Mrs. Delaro walked into the parlor she spoke very kindly to Eugen© and no one could have told that she cherished any feelings of suspicion towards him. They conversed together for some moments, during which Mrs. Delaro made kindly inquiries regarding Mrs. Il regy. This seemed to remind Eugene of a duty he had to perform and bo commenced it by asking Mrs. Dolaro if she could give him Mr. Biodger’s address, as he and hia mother wished to see him on some business matters. As they had never seen Mr. Blodger except at their store they had never known his address. Mrs. Delaro told Eugene where he could find Mr. Blodger most of the time, and Eugene in confidence said that Mr. pledger had offered to rent him a larger and more convenient store a Uttlo farther down-town, end it was on that account he wished to see him. As Eugeno finally rose to go Mr. Wilcox joined the party and Mrs. Delaro observed that he would probably willingly carry a message to Mr. B’odgcr from Eugene as he saw that gentleman down town nearly every morning. But Eugene wm not dis­ hia posed to intrust Mr. Wilcox with *■*" business, m he said: “OH, it does not matter.’’ and then bid them night. Before retiring Armida and h?r , mother sat for a long time talking In the- firelight "Why, mamma, how serious you are becoming," said Armida. "This Is a serious matter,” said her mother. “You know not what hopes and aspirations you may have already engendered in that young man’s heart nor Into what foolish delusions you "I had never thought ot it in that light, mamma, dear." waa the reply. “But it demands your thought, my child.

The Seventh and Ninth Cavalry were just coming in from yesterday's battlefield, followed at some distance by tbelr provision trainOn reaching the point named, a largo band ot Indians, headed by Chief Two Strike, dashed suddenry upon the train, captured it, and were making off to­ ward ttie Bad Lands, whet the favalry wheeled and gave pursuit.

Indiiins and soldiers lay together, and tho wounded fought ou the ground. Off through the draw toward tbe bluff* tho few remaining warriors fled, turning occasionally to fire, but now evidently caring more for escape than to fight. Only tbo wounded Indians scorned pos­ sessed of tho courage of devils. From the ground where they had fallen they continued to fire until their ammunition wns gone or until killed by the. soldiers. Both sides forgot everything excepting only the loading and discharging of guns. It was only in the early part of tho affray that hand-to-hand fighting was seen. The carbines were clubbed, sabers gleamed, and war clubs circled in the air and came down like thunderbolts. But Uiis was only for a short time. The In­ dians could not stand that storm from the soldiers. They had not hoped to. It was only a stroke of life before death. The remnant fled, and the battle became a hunt. It wss now that the artillery was called into requisition. Before, the fight­ ing was so close that the guns could not be ti a fried without danger of death to the soldiers. Now, with the Indians fly­ ing where they might, it was easier to reach them. The Gattling and Hotch­ kiss guns were trained, and then began a heavy firing, which lasted half an hour, with frequent volleys of musketry and cannon. It was a war of extermin­ ation now with the troopers. It was difficult to restrain the troops. Tactics were almost abandoned. The only tac­ tics was to kill while It could be done.

IFerguiuFall (Minn. | dispatch.? Carl . Tho chapter of horrors which has marked the closing year in Minnesota is not yet complete, and the tragedy which took place a few miles southwest of Car­ lisle,-Wilkin Conhty. In'some respect* caps all others of recent date In its hor­ ror and utter brutality. Yesterday tbe ■ family of Carl Reher consisted of six persons. To-day the father and mother .are dead, tho son Is hovering on the edge of the grave, and one daughter is dan­ gerously wounded. Carl Reher was a German aged nearly OU, who lived In a cabin on “the flats," tw Uwy. are called, in Wilkin County, about twelve mllv* from this city, fils family consisted of hh wife, aged 40; his son Henry, 25; and throe daughters, aged 22, 10, and 14. Reher was a taciturn, moody man. who was hold tn much fear by his neighbors as a person of unbridled passions and dangerous disposition. Hi* son Henry has served a term in the penitentiary for horse-stea ing and ias known as a hard character. Of the women of the family perhaps the less said the better. For the last three years there have been hitter family quarrels which often resulted in violence. Against any out­ side interference, however, the family always united as one person, as in tho qas.^ of tho arrest of Henry Reher for horse-stealing, when tho others did all t!.-v -. i.nbi to shield him from the law. A few weeks ago, after an unusually vio­ lent family broil, Carl Reher quit tho house and wont to Elizabeth, a German village eight miles from here, where bo opened a shoe shop, and has since worked steadily until last night Saturday night he got a ride with a neighbor and went home. The rest of the horrible story of last night** crime was learned from the lips of his dying wife and his daugh­ ters. Reher entered his homo on tho flats at about *.< o'clock in tbe evening. All the members of tho family were there, and jumped up In surprise at the unexpected appearance. He walked to the table with apparent unconcern, and laid down several small bags of candy and a largo bottle o( whisky- “These are Christmas presents for you, aud I have got somo more," he said, and stepped into a ieanto at the back of the house, used for a woodshed, and a moment later reappftared al the door with a self-cocking i revolver iti each hand. These he leveled and began tiring. Tho first bullet waa tired at his son, but missed Its mark. Tho young man staggered back, and threw up his arms to protect himself. The second and third bullets struck JjIju in the arm, which was shockingly man­ gled. Tbe fourtli bullet was aimed at his oldest daughter and entered her shoulder. Tho lamp was extinguished by tho fifth shot, which entered tho body of Mrs. Reher. By this time the whole family was In a frenzied stale, and all made a rush for the door. Reher dropped his revolvers and drew a huge carving-knife. As Henry Reher reached the door his father plunged the knife Into his son’s back, penetrating deep Into the lungs. In spite of this ghastly wound tho young man mounted his horse and rode two miles to tho house ot Henry Schomann, the nearest neighbor, who at once went to Carlisle and telegraphed this city aud Wahpeton for surgeons. The three daughters got safely out of the house and scattered tc> hide them­ selves in a haymow and outbuildings. Mrs. Reher was loft alone in tho house with the butcher. He attacked her fiercely with the carving-knife and stabbed her again end again. She foil, apparently dead, and he went to tind his daughters and - finish hts work. He did not succeed arid returned to tho house. His wife was gone. The youngest daughter, who watched tbo scene from the hay­ mow, describes what next occurred. Iler father appeared at the door with his dripping knife still in hand. The moon­ light lit up tho landscape brilliantly, and he saw his wife crawling painfully on her hands and knees fifty yards away. Ho ran to her and again foil upon her with fiendish ferocity and plunged his knife again and again in her prostrate body. Then he returned to the house. Half an hour later several neighbors, well armed, arrived. The three daugh­ ters were still in hiding. They had heard a single pistol shot, but no other sound. The neighbors en­ tered tho house and fonnd Reher stone dead with a bullet in his brain and a rope around his neck. Ho had thrown the rope over a beam and put the noose around his neck, and as tho noose tight­ ened he had blown out his brains. Ho lay there with his own blood mingling in a pool with that of his wife aud son. Mrs. Reher also lay on the floor. She had crawled back Into the house and lay almost by tho side of her dead husband. She had only strength to tell the story of the awful tragedy, and then died. Her body and limbs were hacked full of holes, any one of half a dozen of which would have been fatal. Dr. Thoma* N. McLean, of thia city, arrived throe hours later, and shortly afterward Dr. Tripiettuf Wahpe­ ton, and dressed tbe wounds of Henry Reher and hia sister. Tho former had lost a great quantity of blood and his injures are so severe it la thought he canhot survive. The girl will probably re­ cover. though her wound is dangerous. Everything In and about the cabin was soaked with blood and the scene was ono of the most ghastly that could be Im­ agined. Except the frequent quarrel* In the family there was no known cause for Reher's action. He was not a heavy drinker aud according to the neighbors with whom he rode home he waa perfect­ ly sober the night of the tradegy. That tbe deed was premeditated Is shown by the fact that he brought with him from Elizabeth three revolvers, all fully loaded, and the rope which he used to hang himself with wo* entirely new, bought only the day before In Elizabeth.

Tho entire band of warriors, consisting of 120 braves and over 150 squaws and papooses, was killed. The loss of the soldiers was comparatively small, but several were killed, including Captain Wallace, of the Seventh Cavalry, and large numbers *ere more or leas serious­ ly wounded." From the camp on Wounded Knee Creek comes the following: About a dozen of the warriors had been searched when, like a flash, ail the rest of them Jerked guns from under their blankets and began pouring bullets into the ranks of the soldiers who a few 'minutes before had moved up. within almost gun length Those Indians who bad no guns rushed on to the soldier* with tomahawk in one hand and scalp­ lug-knife in the other. Their first volley was almost a* one man, so that they must have fired one hundwd shot* be­ fore the soldiers fired one. but how they were slaughtered after their first volley! Some, however, succeeded in gelling through the lines and away to the small hills to the southwest The firing lasted half nn hour The list of killed and wounded soldier*, so far as can now be ascertained.'is as follows; Killed—Capt. Wallace, <-ommand>*n of K troop; Private Cook, B troop. Wounded—Father Craft*. Catholic priest, mortally wounded—lungs: Pri­ vate Frank Lewis, B troop; Private Stone; Private Sullivan. K troop; S. F.

The Indian men, women and riilldrcn ran to the south, the battery firing rapidly as they ran. Soon tha mounted troops were after them, shoot­ ing- them down on every hand- The engagement lasted fully au hour and a half. To the south many took refuge Iu a ravine, from which it was difficult to dislodge them. The killed and wounded soldiers on the field and vicinity num­ bered about fifty. Just now it Is impos­ sible to state the number of dead In­ dians. There arc many more than tha* number killed outrlghL The soldier* are shooting them down wherever found, no quarter being given by any one. The field was one of great confusion, borsds running In every direction and men well-nigh frantic during the engage­ ment, owing to the unfortunate way they were placed. The troops are still firing from the camp and pursuing tho Indians In every direction To say that it was a daring feat, 130 Indians attacking 500 cavalry, expresses the situation but faintly.

The American Harvester Trust Is a thing of the past. It only lived a (nonth or two. tn spite of the great things promised about IL When it was organ­ ized it* capital was said to-be 835,000,0C0—a tidy little num that would carry most enterprises through al) right. The following statement of tho dissolution of tho trust is given out: “The American Harvester Company states that after securing the opinion of eminent counsel from different States it has been brought face to face with grave legal obstacles to the consummation of the enterprise for which it was formed. These arc of such a character as that after the most serious and careful con­ sideration the conclusion has. been reached that tho whole undertaking must be abandoned. In doing so it Is but adopting tho course such counsel have united In advising." The companies that seceded are said to be tho McCormick Harvesting Ma­ chine Company, tho Deering Company, the Whitman-Barnes Manufacturing Company, and’ Warder, Bushnell & Glessner. These companies are s’aid to have been dissatisfied with the policy of the trust in raisij.jf prices, and also in the consolidation of the interests of the supply houses to the disadvantage .of their patrons. They stated their objections at Thurs­ day's meeting, and that precipitated a fight- Tho result is that they have with­ drawn. and now propose to make It inter­ esting for those who still stick to the trust They Intend to cut prices and made a most Interesting war on their old allies, it Is said. All this will be pleasing news.to tho farmers, as a fight must result in a great decrease in the prices Of their supplies. Instead of a trust to put up prices It looks as though it would be a war to put them down. “The dissolution of tho American Har­ vester Company was due entirely to the fact that the organization Is antagonistic to tho spirit of tho law," said a largo stockholder last night. “We made a mistake in the organization of the com­ pany. We are all law-abidfng men, and after hearing tho opinions of the best counsel in the country wo decided to dissolve. ' “There have been reports to the effect that the company broke up because some of tho stockholders advocated a radical advance In the prices of machine* This had nothing whatever to do with iL The matter of prices was not mentioned at all. It has also been told that the Farmers' Alliance In tho Northwest had conspired against us and declared tho members would not pay the notes wo hold. This was not true, as we held none of their notes. “The directors met here to consider what should be done. At the meeting were a large number of tho stockholders and they all took part In tho discussion. And on learning that our organization was opposed t» the spirit of the law we decided to separate and continue to do businees us we hud done before. This is simply and solely the cause." Col. A. L. Conger of the Akron Mower and Reaper Works said: “All that w.> did and our reasons for.lt are stated In that resolution which we adopted. It is simply this: We went into this project in good faith.,expecting to perfect an or­ ganization tuat would be for tho mutual interbst of tho manufacturer and tho farmer and everybody whose interests had anything to do with IL But when wo got ready to proceed to business and place our bonds wo met those Iczal em­ barrassments which naturally surround any organization of this kind under ex­ isting laws. “There is no use denying the fact that we had made some mistakes in our organlzatton, that is to saj, wo found that the laws In some' States and the laws passed in opposition to such organiza­ tions by Congress made a serious embar! rassment to our proceedings.

The Spanist G eneral Prim, then dicator of Spain, went to Lisbon to offer the crown o| that country, recently and forcibly taken from the brow of Qneen Isabella, to Dom Fernando. The newly created countess wanted to be a queen, but the proud Spaniard would only make her, a duchess and, as her husband stood by her. he threw away his chance and the throne of Spain was offered to Prince Leopold of Hohenzollern, a nephew of King William of Prussia.

A good instance was furnished to me by a man named Smithson, who had himself witnessed it, rays a writer in the Youth’* Companion.

Boon tiring of mining he started a bank on a small scale and prosper<«d. After n short time he got homesick and started for home to see If tbc girl he had left behind , him would marry him. She was a Miss Galloway, one of four good-looking slaters, and ho had been half engaged to her before the gold fever struck him. “If I like you as well when you come back a« I do now I will marry you," she told him with re­ freshing frankness when he went away. It was to see If Sarah still liked him that Winans was so anxious to return to civil­ ization. The long journey back was as full of dangers as the first trip across the continent Tho train of prairie schooners was attacked by Indians and Winans received a buUot iu the ribs, but fortunately tho wound was not fatal. He reached home In safety, although bandaged, and was given a royal welcome by the neighbors for miles around. But he found that his cup of happiness had Its bitter drop. His sweetheart loved another. Absence had not made the heart grow fonder In her case, und she regretfully Informed the future Governor that she would be glad to be a sister to him. Winans de­ termined to take her at her word. Ho was a practical man and consoled him­ self by marrying one of her sisters. He went back to California and by attention to business acquired a comforianl'e for­ tune, returned to Hamburg in 1858 and started farming. The same year he was elected to the Legislature. Later on he became Probate Judge, and was sub­ sequently elected to Congress, where ho served two terms. One of the deadliest serpents of the tropics is the fer-de-lancc. of which there are at least eight varieties. Lafcailio Hearm says tht* reptile is of pre­ cisely the color which will enable it to hide among tho foliage or the roots of trees. Sometimes it is of a bright yellow, and one can scarcely distin­ guish it from the bunch of bananas within which it coil,. Again it may be black, or yellowish-brown, or of any hue resembling tropical mould, old bark or decomposing trees. The iris of the eye is orange, with red flashes, and it glows at night like burning coal. ,i In Martinique the fer-do-lance is -absolute lord of the forest by day, ami at night he extends his dominion over parks and public roads. The only safety lies in remaining at home after .dark, nnless one lives in the city itself, and it is always dangerous to enter the forest even at noon without an experi­ enced escort.

Blodger, as he entered the store on the following afternoon. He bad come up to Harlem to inspect some building* which ho was having erected. and thought he would call on hi* pros­ pective tenant on tho way home. "How are you, aud how is tho grocery bust* "^“Well. my health is good, and busi­ ness is as good as usual," was the ready response- “And where is your son to-day?” , “He has just gone to put tho horse in tho stable and will be back in a few moments.” * , Upon hearing this reply Mr. Blodger seated himself on an upturned cracker barrel and resumed; “Sira Bregy. that son of yours is a very Industrious you ng Bonn aud is sure to prosper.’’ “Ye*, be works very hard.” asserted the lady, “but it is uphill work and there is a great deal to corftend with in running a store.” ' “I don't doubt it,’ for I have had my own experience and know what it, is: still perseverance will overcome every thing, and many a hindrance have I found Ir. my way,” said Mr. Blodger. “DM I understand you to say that yon were once in the soap business?” asked Mrs. Bregy. . “Yea, ma'am, until recent years I was engaged in the manufacture of that very useful and necessary commodity.” “AND WBEHK IS XOUB SOM TO-DAY?” Here he picked up a sample from a box at his side, smelled it, examined it with a critical eye. and continued: “But I am no longer identified with that business, although the name of Blodger will live as long as there is nothing in­ vented to supersede the use of soap. ” “Then soap has made you the wealthy man you arc. to-day?" said Mrs. Bregy. “Yes, madam,” replied the talkative old fellow. “I owe a good deal to soap. I am tolerably well off, and it Is a great deal of satisfaction to know that while 1 have been accumulating a fair compe­ tence I have at the same time been helping to make the world a good deal cleaner. And. by the way. I attribute not a little of my success .to my knowl­ edge of tho best methods of bringing my soap to the notice of the public and singing its praises in verse. Allow me," taid Blodger. producing what looked amazingly like a scrap-book from the recesses of his coat pocket, ‘to read to you what was conceded by all to be my best effort in that line. A gen-u-tne (Be was lapsing into soap once more) literary production, one which set all the people of the United States talking and wondering who wrote it on the morning when It appeared, at the foot of an elegant cut of a wash tub, in all the new-papers from Maine to Caii“ " fornia.

It was late In the afternoon of a lovely day Id mid-winter, such s day a* is only known In tho northern latitudes of North America. Away in the western *ky the crimsou sun wa* fast sinking, lighting all the horizon with a golden radiance and, for the nonce, gilding the closely-built street* of tho great me­ tropolis until Its spires snd roofs shone resplendent as the palaces of a fairy prince. For a few momenta a bright rsy slanted through the window of tho Still chamber and rested upon the pleas­ ant and well-loved features of the good old man. Then as the sunlight gradual­ ly faded sway to be followed by the creeping shadows of the twilight, the gentle spirit of Joel Wilcox fled to that land where sunlight and shadow are both as naught in the eternal brightness of the great God. In a delicately-furnished bedroom in the house near Gramercy Park was gathered a small company, wistfully gazing upon, a bed whereon lay tho quiet form of an old man. The little group consisted of Mrs. Delaro and her daughter, Mr. Blodger and a physician, snd they were sadly watching their good friend, Mr., Wilcox, the tide of whose life was fast ebbing away. Joel Wilcox was an old man who had long since passed lhe three-score-andten milestone on life’s highway, and a slight cold, added to intense anxiety, on account of the man whom be hid grown to lore as a son, had produced a fever which proved too much for his vitality. The old follow bad outlived his day and generation, though, indeed, bo had in his younger days cut adrift from all his relations and early asso­ ciations. In the latter days of his prosperity he had not made many friends (though he could count ac­ quaintances by tho hundreds) as his re­ served and simple nature rendered him fearful lest men should only like him for his wealth and the influence which wealth brought with iu For Mario Delaro be bzd’ conceived a hearty Hking. and how well he had proved the i gcnuinonv-.»» of • thet friendship these HAPPY HOOSIERS.

None genuine without these versos on tho wrapper, over the signature of Stephen Blodger. ‘For sale by all Gro­ cers and Druggists throughout the coqptry.’” Mr. utodg •? looked round with an air of pr; h«j finished reading and gracefully ptc-1 tho commendations which his verbal droVr forth from Mrs. । arts always iu such ■1 a l.-tter into the suppoM, this young grocer will be a very big man now and tn ay take It Into his bead to want to marry Armida.” He was talking to Mrs. Delaro when he said this. She quickly replied: “Oh, no, I do not think matters are quite as serious as that But how is it about the woman’s supposed busband? Has she forgotten him amid the new excitement?’’ “No. indeed, she has not On the con­ trary she promises to spend her money when sh« gets it for the purpose of try* ing to find her husband.” “That remind* me to ask if yod have yet heard any thing from Percy,” was Mrs. Dolaro’s next question. “No, I have not and it is causing me much concern. I have sent message after message, but no reply comes und to-morrow I have made up my mind to cable the American Consul at Buenos Ayres and ask him to investigate. It is getting serious and steps must bo taken at once to find out where he is.” A sec­ ond later the aged friend of the Delaro family spoke up suddenly and asked: “D>d you bear that Mr. Howe, a part­ ner of Mr. Emerick’s, is dead?” “No, I did not,” replied Mr* Delaro. “It occurred some time ago,1'said Mr. Wilcox, “and 1 beard down-town that this Emo rick is returning from Buenos Ayres, having closed out his business there. Also that he is going to sell out altogether. He is a rather queer fish, I am told, some of his business transac­ tions ifot being quite as square as they might be. The consequence is that ho is not spoken of very well among busi­ ness men and has few friends."■ “Then I hope that you will en­ deavor to sec him as soon as he arrives, for Percy was very anxious that you should. He seemed to have some idea that you will know the man,” said Mrs. Delaro. “You may depend upon it I shall do my best to see him when he gets here, for I am as much interested as anybody in knowing who he really is.” For the next week or two there were no new developments cither in regard to Percy Lovel or the Bregy*’ fortune. Eugene and his mother, acting on the advice of Mr. Blodger, made rapid preparations to leave for France, and had even taken passage on the “La Gas­ coigne” for the early part of May. Mr. Wilcox was suffering intense anxiety on account of not hearing from Percy, and longed for the time to come when ho would receive some informa­ tion by mail from the American Consul, to whom he had telegraphed asking him to make inquiries. In fact so great was the old fellow’s anxiety that he began to show signs of it In bis feat­ ure*. The old gentleman was very ro­ bust. and could have combatted success­ fully any severe physical trial, but the stress of worry on his mind owing to the halo of uncertainty which surrounded the fate of his chosen friend and com­ panion were too*much for him. He grew restless, sometimes even irritable, and finally was told by his medical adviser that he must cease to trouble himself so much or he would be a very sick man. Still nothing could divert his thoughts, and on the day that Mr. Emerick landed in New York from the Rio steam-r, Mr. Wilcox was compelled to take to his bed. The strain on his mind hod been too much and be had to succumb. Mrs. Delaro and Armida had done their utmost to cheer him, and had endeavored to force him to eat and drink, and take amusement to divert his thoughts, but their efforts were of n» avail. Eugene walked in. and after shaking hands heartily with Mr. Blodger he received, the letter which his mother handed te him, and as he read it won­ dered what it could mean. He gave bi* wonderment expression, and askod as much. Neither could answer him, so it remained for him to mako the sug­ gestion that as It was only just turned two o'clock his mother might as well go down-town to Brouse & Tanner’s office and find out all about It. •■Certainly.’'said Mr. Blodger, “and I’ll go along.

"My Uncle Du Bols, who lived at Amiens has left me a lot of property worth nearly five hundred thousand francs. Ho died nearly ^ year ago and they have been trying to find me ever since. But some oi my relations over there are trying to swindle me out of it They say my uncle was insane when he made his win and did not know what be was doing.” “What did the lawyers have to say about it any way?" .asked Eugene. “They say there will be some little trouble getting the matter settled, but they do not doubt that I shall get the property eventually. Still, it will take quite a sum of money to go over there and fight my greedy relatives, and I don't know where the money would come from if it was not that Mr. Blodger insists on advancing it at six per cent interest until the affair is Settled and we can pay it back." “And have you accepted?” asked Eugene. "Certainly not I told Mr. Blodger I should have to consult with you first” answered his mother. “Well, I suppose we may hare to ac­ cept somebody's assistance before it is all over, for if there is law to be paid for, it will take a great deal of money to do It Then, too, if we are to go to France the grocery will have to be sold,” said Eugene. “Yes, that is pretty certain, for we can not take it with us, and it will not take care of itself here. But before we take any steps at all in any direction, we must understand from these lawyers exactly how the matter stands and what the exact chances are for my getting hold of the property.” was his mother’s guarded reply. Secretly Eugene re­ joiced at the prospect of going abroad, and when he thought of the wealth which might poealbly come to them it struck him that after all he might bo in a position to make love to Armida Dolaro. Yet he kept his own counsel and did not show any extraordinary eager­ ness to press after the wealth. Even before bis mother he restrained him­ self. They talked over the matter to­ gether that night and Mrs. Bregy told her son a great deal more* than he had ever known Wore regarding her early history and the noble race of which she was adescendant She also told him much about her early life in New York when she spent her honeymoon in the Quar­ tier Francalae. Eugene was very much interested and he forced much informsfrom his mother which was entirelynew to him. This conversation of course brought back the occurrences of tho past few months to her mind more vividly and she could hardly believe that so short a time since she was dragged down al­ most to the gutters of the twin cities. These thoughts of tho past, however, never had but one marked result, name­ ly the renewal of her love for her hus­ band from whom she had been separ­ ated for so many years.

Looking out over the many homes of this country, we see thousands of women wearing away their lives in household drudgery that might be materially lessened by the use of a few cakes of SAPOLIO. Jf an hour is saved each time a cake is used, if one less wrinkle gathers upon the face because the toil is lightened, she must be a foolish woman who would hesitate to make the experiment, and he a churlish husband who would grudge the few cents which it costs. If your- grocer sends you anything in place of SAPOLIO, send it back and insist upon having just what you ordered. SAPOLIO always gives satisfaction. On floors, tables, and painted work it acts like a charm. For scouring pots, pans, and metals it has no equal. Everything shines after it, and even the children delight in using it in their attempts to help around the house. ' Some men are honest because they never bad a good chance to steal anything.

Up to 1776 It was a wild extent of territory un­ der no definite rule, hut in that year. John Sevier. John Carter, and John Haile petitioned it* neighbor. North Carolina, for annexation under the name of the Washington district, the principal community iteing then at Watauga. Thu petition was accepted, and three dele­ gates were elected. Later tho Logisla* . tore changed the name to Washington County, assigning as It* boundaries tho * limits of the present State of Tennessee, ■ Land was fixed in value at forty shillings per 100 acre. The most prominent man at that time was General Evan Shelby. He had been a groat military leader, and. like Daniel Boone, had fought the Indians for many years. He was a Representative in tho Legislature, and. like John Sovlur, was popular among tho people. The,Annexed district had prospered, greatly, and active Immigration and exploration were the order of the dar. The district of Salisbury was finally divided, forming Sullivan and Washington Counties. After the war of Independence, In 1783, a period of depression succeeded to the joy of victory, and the Government found Its Immense debt contracted to carry on the war a source of great diffi­ culty. Congress finally issued a call to all States that held vacant lands to cede the same to the United State*, hoping from their salo to liquidate the national Indebtednes*. North Carolina was ap­ pealed to, and as soon as Virginia ceded Its lands, the former State, in 1784, did likewise.

Au।interesting writer, in speaking of the experience* of a lion-hunter who was in the employ of a Hamburg dealer ' in wild animals, tells that once when he was knocked down by a lion in Western Africa, and the beast stood ' with its focepaws upon his body gazing at his throat with a look of anticipated ’ pleasure, ^•''frightened it awly by imi-; tating the bark and grow} of a dog. The startling discovery that when j the lion was sure he liad a man under his feet it proved to be a dog so rattled the lion that it slunk away with its tail between its le^c. Another writer relates the adventnre of an English officer in Bengal, who was jauntily strolling through a , jungle in search of a particularly fero­ cious tiger, whose presence had been unpleasantly made known to the live stock around the post the previous night. A tiger rifle is s rather cumbersome weajKm, and was therefore packed upon his servant’s rather than upon his own shoulders, while he. with only a walk­ ing stick, skirmished in advance of the party. Suddenly there appeared, directly in the narrow pathway and onlv a few paces ahead, a tiger sufficiently large and ferocious-looking to furnish ample sport in the personal encounter which seemed imminent. The officer reached hi* left bund behind him for his rifle, while he kept his eye fixed upon the tiger, which stood with its ears laid flat u]x>u it* head and its tail lashing its sides, preparatory to the fatal spring. But at the first discovery of the awful presence the servant hud dropped the rifle, and retreated discreetly and pre­ cipitately upon the camp. The tiger leaped and landed right at the officer's feet, but he, nothing daunt­ ed, struck the animal a powerful blow on the nose with his cane. The tip of the nose, people unfamiliar with tigers are informed, is a particjriarly tender point with them, and without further effort on the officer’s part the tiger fled howling into the bush. io de patch, an’ fo’ I grabbles mo’ ’n seben en nine ’taters er gun went off bang, on’ I feel de shots hit me in de legs.

They are three mile* in length and lie between forty and sixty feet below the surface of Loudon streets. The tun­ nels for the np and down lines are formed of cast iron from beginning to end, save where the Htations are built, and their diameter is 10 and 10| feet The tuben are formed of rings 1 foot 7 inches long, made in sections and bolted together. The tunnels were driven by means of a short cylinder, a trifle larger in its inner dimension* than the exterior diameter of the cast iron tunnel lining. This cylinder has a cutting edge, and is forced forward by hydraulic jacks, cutting a circular way into which the lining plates are fitted. The narrow space between the lining and the soil was filled with lime cement forced in under high pressure. In their course the tunnels pass be­ neath the bed of the Thames and through the Iwd of an old water course, where loose, wet gravel offered some trying obstacles for the engineers to overcome. Tho entire cost of the line fullv equipped was leas than $3,­ 750,000.

Hennessey's father, who was on Gen. Wetzel’s staff during the war. after­ ward became a noted detective in New Orleans, where he was assassinated in 187". His cousin, Mike Hennessey, with whom he was a partner in the private detective business for years, was shot in New Orleans in 1880, and subse­ quently he was assassinated in Hous­ ton, Tex. The circumstances surrounding the death of Mike wereof the most exciting nature. The assassination happened on Wednesday night, September 29, 1886, within a few rods of his own home. Hennessey had been to the theater, and, after leaving it, he took a street car, accompanied by - several of his friends. When the car reached the corner of Jackson and Preston streets, Hennessey stepped from the ear, having his face turned toward the door. As' his feet touched the street a man quickly stepped into view and, drawing a revolver, shot him in the back. The murderer followed up his attack with three other shots as the ear moved on the guitar. She sang and played at country town concerts for several years, gradually widening the circle of her tours, and at sixteen gave it up for a’ while and settled down as a school teacher In Peoria. After a time she resumed her musical performances and at Toledo, Ohio, in 1870, she attracted the atten­ tion of Clara Louise Kellogg, who was struck with her talent and took au Inter­ est In her. Miss Kellogg sent her toNew York, where she studied under Errant, and after a time was engaged aa soprano at the Church of tho Divine Pa* ternlty. of which Rev. Dr. E. H. Chapin was pastor. There she attracted the at­ tention of many prominent people, among whom were Horace Greeley, C. D. Hunt­ ington, George G. Lake and others. Mr.< Lake took her to her house, and an. organized effort was made to give her a. thorough training. She was sent to Italy in 1872, where she studied for sorao months under Giovanni at Milan, and then by the advice of Christine Nllsion, whose attention she had attracted, she went to Parla There she took lessonsIn vocalization from Wartel and at thesame time took lessons in French.

She then went to England and made her first appearance at the Royal Italian Opera. Convent Garden, and was re­ ceived with great warmth. Then shewent to the Crystal Palace, where her singing brought her to the favorable no­ tice of Col. Mapleson, who engaged her for three years. She sang in all tho principal towns in England, Ireland, and Scotland, and became a great favorite. She had already achieved a reputation abroad before her own country had an opportunity of bearing her after her vol co and taste had been thoroughly trained. She returned to tho United States In 1880. and made her first appearance In New York, turning over the proceeds to a charity connected with the church through which she had been enabled to go to Italy. From that time on sho be­ came a general favorite ail over tho United States. She married Eugene Wetherell, her busloeis manager, and organized a company of her own, which Koon became very successful. Miss Ab­ bott always selected her own assistants, tried their voice* and a’sslgned to then* their parts. Her company was run ot* business principles.

I Looked around tbe town in the afternoon and located a,bouse that aeemod promising, and about a quarter peat two the next morning I went in through tbe Lack j door. Tbe lower part of the Loom waa nicely furniahed, but I didn't want any bricvbrae and I went right up ? tai it and turned into tbe first chamber I came to. There waa a very dim light burning in the room, but it waan't light enough to tee by and I turned on the glim. The light just happened to strike the head of tbe bed and it woke up a man. He sat up and said aa cool aa could be: ‘Well, what » iff1 and I told him 1 wanted whatever dust he might have there, and I wanted it soon. I had met cool men before and waau’t going to stand auy bluff. . "He got oat of bed and started for a bureau in tbe corner ot tbe room. I kept the light on him all the time. He waa a well-built fellow, not more than twenty-four. He had a manly aort of a look about him, and I waa almost ashamed to rub him. When he moved up toward tbe bureau I moved up, too, so aa not to give him a chance to open a window and holler or get any drop on me where I couldn't reach him. He had got about one more step to make to reach tbe bureau, and be waa moving along aa quiet aa a man coaid, when, quicker’n lightning he made a juqy> knocking me off my feet before I knew1 what he waa doing. My lamp fell one way and my jimmy the other, and the next second he fell on me ao heavy that I thought he would grind me to the door. "I had a gun with me, bat I didn't even get a chance to get hold of it. He grabbed both my wriate when we fell, and then somehow be managed to bold both with one hand and with the other he grabbed me by the neck, and he just simply dragged me out and threw me down stairs. I could bear inyaelf banging all the wav down, aud I expected to be all broke up when I got there, bat 1 wasn’t. I was braised bat all right. When I got up on my feet I looked up to the head of thvataira where the man waa.

A man who had just arrived in Chi­ cago and who waa bumping hia way along the moat ciowded part of State street, waa stopped by a peculiar look­ ing fellow. "Say,” said the peculiar fellow, draw­ ing the stranger to one aide, "didn’t yoa spit ou me jaat now?” "Spit on you. Why, I never saw you before.” "That makes no difference. It is easy enough to spit on a man you nev­ er saw before. Spitting on a fellow has no relationship to acquaintance. It strikes me that while I was walking along back yonder juat now, you came along and spit on me.” "But I tell you I did cot. "I kuow^you tell me ao, but I have only your word for it.

I must have proof, and I shall regard you aa guilty until you prove voar innocence.” "Look here, I don’t want anv trouble with you. It I had spit on you it would have been an accident, and being an accident, I should not deny it, believing that any sensible man would bo willing to pardon me. Spit on you, the deace. Why, I haven't spit for three hours.” "My friend,”said the peculiar man, grasping the man’s arm, "I’m in the same boat. I waa out last night and thia morning I can’t spit.

VICINTTY GLEANINGS. You can’t always believe everything you see in the papers. Last week, in concluding our account of the CarrWooden affair, we stated that no trace of the fugitive Wooden had been dis­ covered and that the matter would probably be dropped. Lulled into fan­ cied security by this statement, Wood­ en’s friends here boxed up a few of his belongings and shipped them to him. Constable Weber.who had the warrant, had his eyes open, noticed the destina­ tion of the box, Lake View, and tele­ graphed the officers there to secure Wooden, which they did. Weber left for that place Tuesday evening and on Wednesday evening he returned to Nashville with his man. However, when taken before Justice Wellman yesterday, and the prosecuting attor­ ney commenced looking up the evi­ dence, be found the principal witness, George Reese, refused te stand by his affidavit made at the time the com­ plaint was issued, and no additional proof being obtainable, the prosecutor ordered the case dismissed.

Eaton County Farmers Alliance met at the court house at Charlotte, Wed- Friend Soules, of this township, was called to LaMoure, Dak. Saturday, by a telegram btatlng that his son there had received serious injuries in. an ac­ cident. The particulars of the unfor­ tunate affair, as given by the LaMoure Chronicle, are as follows. . J. M. Soules, the bright and capable foreman of the Boynton farm,just west of the' city, met with a very serious accident, Monday afternon. He had been in town and was on his way home, driving a team of horses, attached to a lumber wagon, in which was a large gasoline stove. As he crossed the rail­ road track on the section line west of the bridge, the engine pf the afternoon freight to Edgeley struck the wagon, dashing it to pieces, and hurling the occupant into the air, “as high as the depot," says the brakesman who was on top of the cars. Mr. Soules alighted on the frozen ground, at considerable distance from the track, undoubtedly striking on his head.and leftside. A dislocation of the left wrist, a crack! ng of the shoulder bone, and a bad cut on the head, were the known bruises. The train stepped as quickly as possible and iKicked up to town, bringing the pros­ trate man. He was at once taken to the LaMoure House, where Dr. Shultz cared for him. Tue injury to the head seems most dangerous, as he regained consciousness very slowly, ana is still lucid only at intervals. Dr. Boyd was called Monday, and on Tuesday the N. P. physician at Oakes, Dr. Boardman, was up to see Mr. joules. The wagon road'angles towards the railroad, where the accident occurred. This, together with the fact that the wagon with Its gasoline stove made much noise, and the further fact that Mr. Houles hath his big coat collar un about his face to keep off tire cold wind prevailing, are ii/*rha|K» sufficient rea­ sons why he did not hear the train at his back.- As the front wheels of the wagon are demolished the engine evi­ dently struck the vehicle fairly amid­ ships. Strange to say the spirited team were not only ituhurt, but never ran at all, and were secured and driven Into town by the brakesman. Mre. Soules'has a sqn only a couple of weeks oldand consequently cannot lie at the itedslde of her husband. Mr. S. Is well known In this county as an energetic, upright man, and the hope Is universal that Ijis injuries will turn out less serious than appearances even now indicate. CHURCH AND SOCIETY.

Ho became pastor of the German Reformed Church at German Fiats and Herkimer in 1801. He gave Iuh son a most careful edu­ cation and had him taught two trades. He first apprenticed him to a confec­ tioner in Albany and then to a saddler at Amsterdam. In 1824 the young man went into business for himself at Herkimer and prospered. He took an active interest in politics and was elected a deputy sheriff in 1829. He devoted much of his attention to the militia and rose rapid!}* until in 1834 he became a Major General. From 1835 to 1887 ho was sheriff of tho county, and iu the two following years was commissioner for the building of the State Lunatic Asylum at Utica. Later on he became cashier and then president of a bank at Mohawk, a posi­ tion which he retained for many years. In 1845 he was appointed Auditor of the Naval Office and Deputy Naval Officer in New York, and remained there until 1849. He was elected to Congress as an anti-idavery Democrat ia 1854 and became an active Republi- can on the organization of tha^ party. He was twice re-elected and served in Congress from 1855 to 1861. During his last term he was Chairman of the Committee on Accounts. On the advent of President Lincoln’s administration Spinner was appointed United States Treasurer by Secretary Chase. He served in that capacity from March 16, 1861, to June 80, 1875. He was the first man to employ female clerks in the Treasury Department. Owing to the number of young men employed in.the department who joined the army at the front many desks were made vacant. Mr. Spinner proposed to supply their places with women, aud after encountering much opposition he finally succeeded. When’ill health compelled him to retire in 1875 a count of the money in his charge showed a discrepancy, but an overhauling of the books led to a correction, and it was shown that he was correct to a cent'. He has spent much of the time sincejhis resignation living in camp at Pablo Beach, Florida. JCHARLES BAILLIE’S TOMB.

Considerable wheat is being shipped in. In Central Indiana wheat has not been covered with snow mure than seven days since Dec. 1. Farmers are marketing practically no wheat In this section, and it becomes more apparent that the shortage of the crop was fully as great as estimated. A great many of the country mills In this portion of the State are shipping in wheat from Michi­ gan to supply their home trade. In Southern Indiana they have had no snow since Dec. 25.

It was s.KaJ house when Mr. Wilcox’s body was taken from it in a casket and carried to tho Now York Central Depot where it was placed on a train and con­ veyed to the New England village whore he had expressed a desire to bo buried. - Mrs. Delaro and Armida accompanied the body, as also did Mr. Blodger. and as the last rites ware administered that soft-hearted old gentleman wiped away big tears from his eyes with a flaring red silk handkerchief. He could hardly think it true that tho close friend of his early days had been carried off so sud­ denly and it was with a sad heart that he turned his Imck on the grave. There was no ostentatious display; every thing was simple os the honest old million­ aire's life had been. He had but few friends during life whom he could call friends and three of them wept at his Hearing ot his death a large number of his relations had presented them­ selves at his bouse in New Y’ork and commenced interferences which were boldly and decisively checked by Mrs. . Delaro and tho lawyers. Many ot them were persons who treated the dead mill­ ionaire very badly before be migrated to Californio, but they bad often en­ deavored to become more Intimate, with him in later years. These ho had suc­ cessfully kept at arms’ length; neverthe­ less they rallied, like carrion crows, filled with the fond hope that he had not forgotten his relations in his lost hours, and all expected that their names would *bo found in the will in connec’ tion with fat legacies. Had they been mindful of the old proverb how much less severe would have been their dis­ appointment. • In most cases they wore Ignored al­ together and only a few of their names wore mentioned in the will which was a few weeks later admitted to probate. To the astonish­ ment of all, and more especially to the New England relatives, the bulk of Joel YVifcox's wealth Including mining and railroad stocks representing enorm­ ous sums ho bequeathed to Percy Lovel. To Mrs. Delaro bo left nearly all his California estates and among them was the Posada vineyard which was now once more the property of tho Delaros. . To Armida Le gave his beautiful mansion and grounds in the Sonoma valley, anti tho rest of his few bequests consisted of various sums left to charitable institutions and those of his relatives for whom he had still re­ tained some regard. This, briefly, was the last will and testament of Joel Wilcox. It was not until his body was laid to rest that Mrs. Delaro thoroughly com­ prehended how true and staunch a friend she had lost, and she now felt very much alone in the world. True, her daughter remained; but the stout hearts who had passed their word to assist her in every way to accomplish ■the purpose of her life had left her side and she tiad grave fears that her efforts might now fall short of her one •cherished desire. The house In which Mr. Wilcox had died soon became too dreary a place for Armida to be confined in and her mother noticed it. Jt would never do to see the healthy color leave those cheeks— a«chango must be sought, and that very soon. Y’et something ought to be learned of Percy Lovcl, thought Mrs. Delar.k What was to be learned came soon to band, bat it was eminently unsatiafactory. The letter from tho American Consul at Buonos Ayres merely stated that a gentleman traveling os Mr. Byron Hunlly had appeared in that city, but • hi* stay had been only a brief one. He had taken a trip into the interior, he said, and nothing had been heard from him since. But as such occurrences were not infrequent it had caused no se­ rious investigations to be made, though should any other news come to hand the Consul promised to advise Mr. Wilcox. This letter did not arrive until after Mr. Wilcox’s death, and it troubled Mr*. Delaro not a little.-. She had heard that Mr. Emerick was again in New York, and she had advised Mrs. Bregy of the fact, bat bad not seen that good Some few weeks later another letter arrived from Buewos Ayres conveying the sad Intelligence that the body of a man. dressed exactly as th* sopposed Mr. Hnatly was known to have dressed, had been taken from the river a few miles below Sas Nicholas, the last place from whence tiding* of tho traveler had been received. This communication was a great blow to Mrs. Delaro. What should she do now that she had no adviser left? And how should she complete the only pur­ pose she acknowledged la her life? Then there was all that idle wealth of Percy’s, loft him by Mr. Wilcox—what would become of that? She finally felt that the thought of all that had hap­ pened within the past few months would be too much for her among such close associations and constant reminders of in change of acenes at leaat a little re□ooe. She would leave every thing in che lawyer*■ hands and go to Europe.

He also fell into their way* with alarming alacrity and could already consume ps much in the crowd. He was not only like them in respect to enjoyment, but also in study. It is one of the rcmarkabla things about Parisian student* that no matter how late they remain out at night or to what extent their midnight orgies may be carried they are always present at the lecture and generally pass successfully through their course of study. Mr. Emerick did not confide the se­ cret of his wife’s recognizance to Eu­ gene at once. He proposed to wait until he saw fully which way the boy was go­ ing. His nightly sprees were becoming expensive, and he was running through a great deal of money. In fact, Eugene was fast approaching a financial dilem­ ma, and bad already written to hi* mother to send him on a further supply.

Tho Sunday after Mr. Emerick joined Eugene in Paris, they both*went out to the races and on their way home Eugene told Mt. Emerick bo had bet his last napoleon and lost It. He need not have told this, however, for Mr. Emerick had watched him carefully and know as much. Y’et he did not betray his previous knowledge when Eugene told bis tale. They were roll­ ing along the Champs Elysecs when the conversation took place, and, as they turned off toward the street where they were going to take dinner, Mr. Emerick was about to tell Eugene thlt ho wonld assist him to any extent when that youug man interrupted him with an ex­ pression of joy. Eugene hailed tho driver to stop and before Mr. Emerick knew what had happened a decidedly fast-looking Parisian belle was being banded to the carriage.

In 1884 Mr. Streeter was elected as an Independent to the Statp Senate of Illinois. Thera he distinguished himself in the Sena­ torial contest by refusing to vote for William R. Morrison, tho Democratic' candidate. Morrison held that Streeter should support him because the Demo­ crats of tho Twenty-fourth Senatorial District had generally supported Mr. Streeter in tho previous election. Two days before tbe United States Senator was elected Mr. Streeter, who had constantly voted for Gen. John C. Black for United States Sena­ tor, finally agreed .that ho would support Mr. Morrison if tho latter would withdraw when his inability to be elected became apparent. This arrange­ ment was carried out., Both Mr. Streeter and Speaker Haines, the Inde­ pendent Democrat, voted for Mr. Morri­ son, and be twice received tho full vote of the pariy. but was unable to be elect­ ed. Then bo was dropped for Lambert Tree, who had no better success, the final result being that John A. Logan was rc-electod. During Mr. Steeter’s service as a legislator he refused all favors to corporations and invariably aont back railroad passes tendered him. He led the fight several years ago in the Rail­ road and Warehouse Commissioners to compel railroads to sell him mileage tickets at the same rate given traveling men. In this fight ho was finally suc­ cessful. In 1888 Mr. Streeter was tho United Labor candidate for Governor of tho State of Illinois, and polled an unusually largo vote. His public life has been char­ acterized by his opposition to corpora­ tions and his championship of tho farm­ ers in demanding radical reduction of ratlwayratea. Mr.*Cockrell was delegated by the other members of bis party to communi­ cate to the press the fact of Mr. Street­ er's unanimous nomination by the F. M. B. A. for United States Senator, and in speaking of It, he said: “Simultaneous was the announcement to our F. M. B. A brethren throughout tho State of the nomination of Mr. Streeter. Tho principal reason that has Impelled us to the solid support of Mr. Streeter is that his interests are identi­ cal with the industrial Interests of tho country, ho being a farmer himself, a man of property, independent of all po­ litical parlies, and a mas of tested courage. Ho has stood out indepen­ dently for fifteen or sixteen years, and has spent his own time and his own money fighting for tho principles which the labor aud farmer organiza­ tions of tbe country are now de­ manding. Ho has fought for these principles tn times past when there was no hope of reward, when there was nothing in it except to be abused by his fellow-citizens of opposite parties be­ cause his views happened to bo unpopu­ lar at that time. Mr. Streeter has grown gray in the service. He has stood up year after year, until now, an old man, he finds that these principles, once un­ popular, have become so popular that even the statesmen of tho old political parties have come lo us aud promised to carry them out in a mild way. We-have confidence in Mr. Streeter. In nomin­ ating him. tho Democrats of our order cannot say that we are swerving to tho Republicans, and tbe Republicans of our order cannot that we are swerving to the Democrats.

Had it ®mc to this that after the Speaker had suffered the terrible penalty resulting from tbe responsibility thrust, upon him by a party caucus that hl* parly would ask him to make still further sacri­ fice? He (Mr. Rogefs) submitted to gentle­ men on the other side that it there wasfurther responsibility to be borne on thia Ml ver question it should be borne by a gen­ tleman at the other end of the avenue, and by those who openly and boldly denounced free silver. After a continuous Hcmion of thirty hour* the Senate adjourned at 0 p. m. on the 17th until tbe 10th.

After it was well started, four young men held the string, and at a height of nearly 1,000 feet, with their united efforts, they were unable to manage it, and were dragged for quite a distance.

Respectfully Yours, G.'W. Wilson, Acting Commissioner. The modern magazine may be taken as embodying the l»est literature of the world, as the magizine editor pays the highest price to novelists, scientists, statesmen, soldiers, and even kings and princes, for the best they can fur­ nish in the literary line. The well- . edited magazine becomes an educating influence in the family circle, whose importance cannot be over estimated. The children as they grow up are at­ tracted by its Illustrations, and so come in time to have a taste for read­ ing. There is always something that is new, something that is strange, something that is interesting; and we consider that we are doing our readers a positive benefit if we are instru­ mental in placing such a publication within their reach.

THE NATIONAL THE SULLEN BlOU.f AWED BY THE ARMY. A GrMsul Military Parade of the Ualle< Atate* Army WBueased by ike Wily Redr at Fin* Illdge. ‘ (Pine Kldgc dispatch.] Ten thousand Kioux had the oppor­ tunity to aee th» strength and discipline of the United Slales army, for the end "of the ghost-dance rebellion was marked by a review of all the soldiers who havo taken part lb crushing the Indian rebel­ lion. The day was one of the most dis­ agreeable of the campaign. A furious wind blew from tho north, driving tho sand and mow over tho valley In blind­ ing and choking sheets. The summits of the buttes to the north wore then fringed with Sioux warriors, who were cloweljr wrapped in their blankets and Flaring stolidly at tho long lines of cavalrymen and infantrymen which stretched away to tho south until they were lost in tho flying sand. The redskins were a strange group of spec-’ lators. The, looked like Arabs aa they arc sometimes seen In paintings, squat­ ting on tho ground or mounted on ponies on the top of knolls when the sun Is sink­ ing. The great Indian village two miles to the north wa* deserted, and tho sul­ len Sioux'seemed awed by the activity of the troopers. The warriors were still sus­ picious that some move would-b-.j made to wipe them off the face of the earth. Stretching in a long, ghostly linn on tho ridge of buttes to tin- north were their picket*, ready to give the word that would send the redskins flying in case the so’diers should advance upon them. General Mlle* sat npoo a black horso -on the knoll to the east in front of his escort, which consisted of representa­ tives uf every arm of the army in the field. Finally there camo through th* gale tho shrill notes of the bugle They were so faint that they were e I most lost In the storm. Then one by one the trum­ peters took up the call, aud tho great parade of the regular army, which was the grandest since the final diffperaemeat of the troop.* in 1865 In Washington, be« pan tb pa«s in review. General Brooke, mnlfled up in a wolf-akin overcoat, grimy from the sand that swirled about Ids horse, and followed by his staff, led the procession. When the horsemen passed In front of General Mlles, the two leaders of the campaign made t ie salute, then General Brooke, wheeling his horse over the yellow grass, took a position beside his superior. Through the blinding sleet and with heads mu II.cd in huge fur capes, came the great de­ tachment of Sioux scouts with Captain Taylor, his sword at a salute, at their head. Sergeant Red Shirt, the hand­ somest Indian in the Sioux nation, was at the extreme right, his long hair to*sing in tangled masses over his shoulders. Yankton Charley, who saved the revolv­ ers of poor Lieutenant Casey, rode at the left of tha line, his overcoat but­ toned so closely about him that the war feathers on hl? breast were concealed. Then came the great.swinging column of Infantry in brown canvas overcoat*, fur caps, the glittering barrels of their rifles over their shoulders. •Colonel Shafter, with his side whiskers closely clipped, rode at tho head of the ad­ vancing columns. This was the famous First Regiment nf tho army, and as Its officers passed in front of General Miles, their swords faslied through tho flying sand nnd then fell at their saddle girth.*. Captain Dougherty, the grim veteran of a dozen Indian wars, and tho man who had his three-inch rifled gun trained on the liostiies all the lime they marched up the valley to the agency, was at the head of one of the columns.' Then came the Seventeenth Infantry, swinging along with tho jauntincss it displayed when It marched through the blizzard and sand along the Cheyenne River. There was a rumbling back of the infantrymen. The mules, with patient-lookiug faces and statuesque cars, were drugging the machine can­ non. those gun* the Indians declare shoot to-day and kill tomorrow- Tbo noise came from.* battery of gatling and Hotehkiss- jtuns, with mules plodding at their sides, with cartridges packed In white canvas bags on their backs. Be­ hind these machine cannon was CapL Capron’s battery of three-inch rllied gun.*, with soldiers holding carbines sitting <>d the caissons. ” Behind tho artillery was Gen. Carr, astride a bay horse and leading tho Sixth Cavalry. Behind those troops was still another battery of grim Hotchkiss gun*, the carriages of which still boro evidence of the furluus storm of shot that raged for an hour at Wounded Knee. . There was another battery of machine guns and then came In long column front, the most celebrated regiment in the Western army. Il wa* preceded hy a bugle cofrps mounted on white horses, and from tho glittering Instruments th<4fe came a shrill blast that even tho scream­ ing of the storm could not drown. The troopers of the Seventh Cavalry, a regi­ ment that has been torn and leveled by the silent ghost-dancors on tho buttes, was approaching. As it passed General Miles tho entire staff doffed their hats, while the commander himself waved his white-gloved hand. Troop after troop passed by with guidons that hod been riddled by Indian bullets until B troop and K troop came in view. The ap­ pearance of these troops aroused tho emotions of the spectators. B troop was not so large as thoso that had preceded It, and K troop was even smaller. When the savaxes at Wounded Knee turned their carbines upon tho soldiers these troops faced the awful tiro. K troop waa without ite cotqmapdor and all of Ils commissioned and r.on-cummistioned officers. Thee only one who was not killed or wounded in that terrible fight, and the only one to lead B troop was a second lieutenant with * bandage about his head, but tbo gallant troopers who remained rode with proud bearing, their rifles being bold over the beads of their horns. Behind the cavalry came the hospital and supply trains and pack mules. The column was an hour passing General Miles, there being nearly 4,000 soldiers and 3,700 horses and mules in Hdc. __________ Go«*ip treui Everywhere.

All-niaht ocmIo** have never been popular In the Senate, and there are several fienator* who will pc*lt ivcly refuse to repeat the performance of the ICth.

The election bill was taken up a* the unfinished business, nnd Mr. George took the floor In opposition to the measure. After a. statement of the action of several fitate* on the subject of negro suffraxe (after it had liecn Imposed on the fijuth) Mr. George re­ marked that In Michigan."Ohio. Illinois and. Wisconsin tho question had been submitted to the people and bad been rejected by lorgetnajorltie*. Hq asserted that the Constitu­ tion of the fitate of Oregon, adopted In 1M7. eontalmsl provisions prohibiting the immi­ gration of nhgruc* nnd their settlement in. the State, and. In fact, outlawing them, and ho askod Mr. Dolph whetherthose provision* bud been <*hnng<Ml. Mr. Dolph said Hie Constitution In question had: been framed when Oregon was hopelessly Democratic. Tbo couHtltutlon had not. since been amended. Mr. George—Then I understand that those provision* are. phys­ ically In the constitution of Oregon? Mr. Dolph—Does the Henator mean to slate that they are to-day the expre*slon of the judg­ ment of the people of Oregon? Mr. George-— Oh. no; but they are the expression of the judgment of the people of Oregon at that time, and the people of Oregon bare not *een proper to recall them in the same sol­ emn and formal manner. Mn Georgeyielded the floor while the Vice President laid before the fienate the message from the President transmltlin? the agreement made with the Crow Indian* for the sale of the western part of their reservation in Montana. He afterward resumed . his speech, but, without concluding, yielded for n motion to go into executive session, and the Senate soon adjourned. Thk House, on the 20th. experienced the ■Ctormlest scene of a very stormy Congress. The trouble arose over n motion to approve the journal without debate. Hard words, passed between Mr. Mill* and Mr. McKin­ ley. and It was not until the Scrgcaut-at-arms and some friends had forced Mr. MID*, into hl* seat was order re-tored. The row ha* signifleanee from the fact that theleader* of both side* of the Housewere tbe principal*. The scene in tbo House was re-enacted In Jbe Senate, when Mr. G*rgc. of Mississippi, refused to yield the flour u> Mr. Aldrich, who was unxiou*. to present the cloture resolution. Mr. George had the floor when the Senate ad­ journed the previous night, and pullument— nry rules gave It to him at reassembly. Mr. George’s plan is apparently, to hold tbocloture off indefinitely. The prospective, struggle over the force hill 1* th.: all-absorblng topic. Both sides are anxiously counting nose*. Turbulkxcx again marked the proceed1 igs of the House un the 21st. and again also it was over the approval of the jour­ nal. Mills. Bland. Rogers, and Breckin­ ridge on the Democratic side, and Speaker Re«-d. McKinley, and Boutelle on the Re­ publican. were the warring parties. At. times intense feeling characterized the de­ bate—or. more properly Rpcaklng, the quar­ rel—and the gallery was packed by an eager, listening throng. Tho scene wa* highly dramatic. Speaker Rovti. pale, but calm and firm, listened to Rogers* scathing tirade In silence, and when It was ended, made a ruling squarely against tho wishes of the Democrats. In tho Senatealso the Journal became u tone of conten­ tion, and a very acrimonious debate en­ sued. It wa* a* to whether or not tbe Sen­ ate had decided to proceed with considera­ tion of the cloture rule. Mr. Gorman held that no such decision had been reached, while the Journal announce*! that It had. He spoke strongly against the Senate ignor­ ing the laws established for 1L» own govern­ ment. He carried his point, and the jour­ nal was corrected. No further business of Importance wm transacted. Ix tbe Senate, on tho 22d. Mr. Aldrich said that the journal disclosed the fact that It waa the determined policy uf the Dem­ ocratic Senator* to prevent any legislation or action unless their wishes as to certain, measures should bo acceded to. The ac­ tion of the minority was revolutionary and would be resisted. , When Mr. Aidrich had: concluded hl* remarks ho moved that the Senate proceed to the consideration of hl* resolution for & change ot the rules. A point of order waa. made that the unfinished business waa the motion to correct Tuesday's journal. A long discussion followed, during which. Mr. Stewart argued strongly on the Demo­ crat ic aide. Finally the Vice President ruled that Mr. Aidrich's motion to proceed to tbe consideration of the cloture rule was. in order, and overruled tho point of order that the question before the Senate was the motion to correct Tuesday's JournaL Tbo House on the same date got down to busi­ ness. approved the Journal, and then passed the District of Columbia appropriation bilk it then went Into committee of the wholeon the naval aporoprlatfcn bill, general, debate being limited to four hours. At 11 a. m.. ojn the 23d. tbe Senate reas­ sembled and resumed discussion of the cloture rule. Mr. Hoar delivered himself of some rather fo^piblc and uncomplimen­ tary remark* upon the course pursued by the Democrat*. Mr. Cockrell spoke against the measure, and. with frequent interrup­ tions. continued until adjournment In tbo House Mr. Cooper of Indiana sent to the Clerk’* desk and had read a resolution offered by him on Sept 4 last, making charge* against the Commladoner of Pen­ sions The resolution bad been referred to the select committee examining previous charges; and <>n the Hth of September theChairmen of that committee bad been di­ rected" to report tho resolution, but be had; never performed that duty.

When Eugen* awoke tho nett day his mind waa full of the follies of the one which had passed before it, and in his *<ober moments hr. noon came to the knowledge of tho fact that he had fool* iahly placed himself in an un­ pleasant predicament from which it would take a considerable sum of money to extricate himself. The amount of bdebts was not a very large sum in the eyes of many, but Eugene had not been poasessed of wealth long enough to consider the sum It would take to settle with his creditors as an insigni­ ficant amount. He disliked very much to aocept-tbe proffered assistance of Mr. Emerick, but he saw no alternative, as he must have tho money before the even­ ing of the next day or risk arrest. During the evening he met Mr. Emer­ ick and, as they sat at one of tbe little marble-topped tables in a cafe near to the Grand Opera House, be broached tbe subject of his difficulties His listener seemed almost prepared for it, for be asked in a moment: “How much will it take to entirely wipe out your debts?” “Alx>ut five thousand franca." an­ swered Eugene. “That is but a small sum. I wlE ad­ vance it to you in the morning and you can tide over your trouble." After these wprd* Mr. Emerick was quiet for some moments. Eugene thanked him, but otherwise made no reply. Having, as it seemed, got his thoughts into shape, Emerick leaned over the table and speaking in a low voice said: “Eu­ gene, I have something to tell you which may affect your future if not told at once.” “Indeed! what is it?” inquired Eu­ gene. “Nothing serious, I hope?" W ithout any further reference to tho nature of his news, Mr. Emerick said: “Your mother's recent acquaintance with me camo about, as you know, in a rajher extraordlnary^manner." “Ye*, so 1 have understood," said Eu­ gene. “As you must know sooner or later. I may as well relate tbe circumstances to you at once." Whereupon ho proceeded to speak of the occurrence at the dock­ yard gate in Brooklyn and the subse­ quent interview at his rooms in New York. When he got to the point where his wife again recognized him he said: “Your mother made no mistake. I am her husband and your father." When Eugene heard these words he dropped the wino glass he was raising to his lips on to the table and ex­ claimed: "Then why did you change your name?*’ “I have already bad to refuse your mother an answer to that question and for the present must decline to answer you. When the proper time arrives you ahull learn my reasons'.” This was all tho satisfaction which Mr. Emerick gave. Eugene was mystified beyond measure and hardly knew what to say in reply, but he contented himself with at the West End Hotel* “Then abe must be the aatnc, for that la where I met her. There was with them an Englishman named Level and a Mr. Wilcox?" “Yeo, I have heard them speak of tbo Englishman," aaid Eugene, “and Mr. Wilcox 1 knew very well myself, He died only a short time since and left all his wealth to this Percy LoveL" “A dead man can not have much use for money." mused Mr. Emerick, while aloud bo added: “I wonder what will become of it all?" “It will doubtless find an owner some day,” Eugene responded. ■ “It woirtd be a very comfortable sum tor a poor fellow to get hold of, and would enable him to dispense with the necessity of resorting to vulgar labor for the rest of his natural life," said Mr. Emerick. Turning his ayes directly towards Eugene's face, be asked: “What would you da Eugene, if you were possessed of such a sum as that fortune repre­ sent*?" “Propose to A rmIda Delaro as a first •top" was the answer. “And if she retuse you, what then?" •eked Emerick. “In that caae the money would give toe very little pleasure, for there is no other woman on earth whom I would •are to marry," answered Eugene. “If you had that amount at your back you would not be long in finding one, anyhow." waa Mr. Emerick's next re­ mark. Then as Eugene did not appear ready with a reply he leaned over to­ ward him and whispered: “How would you like.to get a share of that, wealth?" “Very well, if I could come by it hon­ estly," said Eugene. “Como, now. don’t put on such strong moral airs, Eugene; you kpow that so long as you got it, you would not care how you camo by it." As Eugene hoard these words be stared at his father with fire gloaming from his eyes and said in an angry tone: “It is a lucky thing for mo that I did not meet my father.until my morals were formed or it would be difficult to surmise where roy career might have led ma If those are your sentimenu do not try to graft them into ma" “Your fit of morality will pass away in a few moments; then I will talk to you,” said Emerick, in an exasperatlngly cool voice. And sure enough, when Eugene had, as he thought, cooled down, be spoke again: “You know that you need money, unless you are going to live on your mother’s means, and by a simple act on your part you can get a good fortune of your own." “Explain your meaning," said Eugene. “My meaning is simply this," said Mr. Emerick. “Percy Love) tbe En­ glishman, is dead. His next cf kin may never be found, and that money will be waiting for some one to claim it. I know a man who resembles Percy Ixrvel as much as two peas resemble each other, and, as tho money will never do the State any good, I propose ^tbat he should personate Percy Level and claim old Wilcox’s fortune." “Great God! What kind of man are you°” asked Eugene. “Surely, you are not my father?” He spoke loudly, but in English, so that the by-standers did not' understand him. “Do you expect me to take a hand in such work as that?" “All that 1 shall ask of you Is th at you procure me a specimen of Percy Lovel’i handwriting.” From the manner in which Mr. Emerick spoke, it waa plainly visible that he still believed Eugene to be attuning his attitude of offended morality. “I could not if I would," said Eu­ gene. This remark encouraged Mr. Emerick, ao that he smiled, and resumed in a rapid, earnest manner: “You can do it quite easily. All that you have to do is to go over to London, tell Miss Delaro that you are wealthy, and claim her hand. Then watch your oppor­ tunity to open her writing desk and take one of Percy Lovel’s letters out I know she has lots of them.” “Noair. I will never stoop to such underhand tricks,” said the younger man with emphasis.' Finding that he could not induce Eugene to help him through in his scheme by holding out prospects of wealth to him Mr. Emerick thought he would resort to another plan. His ac­ tive mind had soon invented one, but as he proceeded to unfold it he little knew how true his supposition waa, “Supposing," said ha. “that this En­ glishman should not be dead -after all and that he should turn up to claim the money? Then, as a natural conse­ quence, he would marry Armlda Delaro, and how would yon feel about that?" “I would feel like killing tbe pair of them,*' responded Eugene. The pros­ pective possession of an Immense sum of money had failed to rouse Eugene’s inward nature, but when that insiduous worker of evil, jealousy, assumed the reins of his mind, ho took a different course. Besides, he was getting warm with wine and his words flew thick and fast. “Nover." he said, “shall any man marry Armlda Delaro but Eugene Bregy. If she refuses me she shall never live to refuse another.” Emerick ceuid hardly have behaved that so slight a bint would have caused such a change of front, but he Inwardly chuckled at tbo result of his apparently accidental suggestion. “Such a thing is more than possible,” he said. “There are many gentlemen traveling through that country who might resemble Percy I-ovel in dress and appearance and become tbe victims of an accident Besides, the body round in the river was badly decomposed, and the Identity was only presumptuous at the best.” These words only increaaed Eugene's eagerness and in an Impetuous manner be exclaimed: **I will start for London to-night and survey the field. If Armida refuses me as a poor man I will stop at nothing to make myself rich enough by some means to have a fitting re­ •baerving: “Well, yo-t may have good reasons but it seems to me like unneces­ sary mystery between father and son." “In due time it will all be explained to you," said his father. Still Eugene was full of grave suspicion. He had himself led such an open, honest fife that such unexplained and questionable actions on tho part of his father gave him grave apprehensions that he was not tho man of integrity for which he passed m tho eyes of tho world. He mado no further allusions, however, until late in the evening when be and Mr. Emerick wore sitting in the rooms of the latter. Tho conversation bad turned on Eugene’s friends, the Delaroa It was Eugene who first men­ tioned them and if he had been more observant he would have noticed a strange look pass over his father's face, which almostseemcd like an expression of fear. He told his father all about the accident which threw him across the path of the Delaroe, and he spoke of Armida in such terms of praise that his father felt constrained to say: “You seem to have a soft place In your heart for this lovely creature whom you de­ scribe." “She would soften any one’s heart," suspended Eugene. Mr. Emerick did not betray in words any knowledge of her of whom Eugene ■poke until Eugene continued: “You ought to mm? thia lovely girt She is tbe moot beautiful woman I ever saw, nnd aa pleasant In her manners an aho to baautiful in form and feature."

Tho vagrant tribes then consoli­ dated, and at the time of the breaking out of the Seminole war numbered about 1,000, with nineteen sub-chiefs, Miconopy as leader and Asslala, or Osceola as ho is poetically named, a ruling genius of great Influence. Tbo causes that led .to the war wore vague and cumulative. In 1821 General Jackson advised the Government to send the Creeks west of the Mississippi River, as they had j&lnod tho Seminole* and augmented their power. This was not done, but a treaty was made two years later whereby tho Seminole* were to be restricted to a fivc-mlllion-acre reserva*’ tion for twenty years Everything seemed settled on an amicable basis when trouble began. Remgades robbed tho'Indians, and the latter retaliated. The Government offered the latter lib­ eral Inducenlcnts to leave tho State. The soldiery became aggressive; the savages folt that they were not being sufficiently reimbursed for slave*, l!ve-«tock and land. There was much agitation and discussion. The Government attempted to force tbe Indians to leave. Various factions organized, and In November, 1835, a large band of tho Indians de­ clared war against tho State, while the friendly savage* Cod to the protection of th© frontier forte- They pointed, to the repeated treaties broken or disregard, and to tbe neglect and abuse that had made them reckless. War was inevitable, and a seven-year* struggle ensued. The center of operations during 1835 I had been the vicinity of Fort King. At this and neighboring forts were stationed some 700 regular troops under tho com­ mand of Gen. Clinch, who expected to keep the 3,000 Indians in tho neighbor­ ing swamps p-a< cab)o until they should emigrate. Even Osceola had agreed lo leave, and hundreds of people were eagerly awaiting Jam 1, 183G, when they might take up the abandoned land. Just about then, unfortunately, some white men caught some Indians slaughtering cattle. They whipped and robbod them. A fight ensued. The old revengeful spirit of tbe Indians was aroused. Somo 4fH) Indians abandoned Oscco'.a and warned the whites to pre­ pare for warfare. An Indian who fa­ vored emigration was murdered by the tnalcautonu. Caiola had become the virtual leader of the savages, and late in December, with sixty warriors, he lay in ambush for two days near Fort King and shot down Gen. Thoaimon and Lieut. Smith while the latter were strolling near the fort. The murder was a brutal one, some thirtyfive bullet* being fired into the victims and tbelr scalps taken and cut Into ,ly aroused. It contained only lx men. Two companies were 1 from Fort Brooke to Ite relief, soldier*. under the command of lade, were attacked on their way I King by tbe Seruincles aud 100 destroyed by the savage*—negroes were j shot down, children hacked tn pieces, homes desolated and sorrow and poverty succeeded prosperity and happiness, Gen. Clinch “ ’ was authorized to call fur troops. To this the country at largo gener­ ously responded, some 4,000 men being in action during the first year of the war. Charleston banks subscribed 833,000 and Georgia sent some 3,500 men during the seven years of struggle. Gen. Gaines left New Orleans with 1,100 men. Gen. Scott was ordered to Florida, and then began that series of skirmishes In the bayous that have given to legendary lore its most striking and maivclous ex­ ploits in tho way of savage warfare. Battle after buttle ensued. Tho troops penetrated tho enemy's country in every direction, even by water, but In­ sufficient means of transportation, bad food, the climat ", and the want of guides, led to disaster. The savages kept them at bay or In doubt of tbelr where­ about-. For over a year they led them I a terrible chase, killing them off in ones or twos, precipitating battles In ad- ! vantageous spots, aud enduring without' loss or fatigue the hardships to which j they themsclvos wore acustomed. | Finally, In March, 1837, a treaty was ' Signed al Camp Dade. The Indians of- , fared to leave the country. Tho war ' seemed ended, and many companies of soldiers were disbanded. Just as the Government believed the struzab- to be terminated, Osceola and.his bands pre­ cipitately fled to the swamps again, having secured food'and clothing for a new campaign. In January, 1841, tho Florida war was no nearer a conclusion than the year previous. Tho Indians in their fast­ nesses were Intractable, defying the sol­ diers. The army was concentrated at Fort Brooke. A million dollars was ap­ propriated by Congress to suppress hos­ tilities, but vainly were the Indians of­ fered money tp emigrate, and their fields aud villages destroyed. Secure in swamp retreats, they sallied forth to pillage, re­ turning laden with plunder. Gen. ArmIstead found It almost Impossible to track tho enemy to their lairs, and when he did their number wa? small, the savages sepa­ rating continually. Provision trains were constantly robbed. Waxehadjo. a cruel and intrepid warrior, for months way­ laid the express from Fort Cross to Tam­ pa Bay. He had burnt the mall and put tho rider to the most terrible tortures, and summary punishment was determin­ ed upon. Capt. Beall wa? dispatched to the scene of the latest outrage. Ho "Do you know that gold is the nod unwieldy of all the different kind* of money bow in circulation?" said a prominent banker to your correspond­ ent. "Why ?” was asked. “Because it is not bankable without . careful scrutiny.” “Howis that?" "Simply this: Take a greenback, a silver certificate, a gold certificate or a national bank note to your bank, and it is received and placed to your credit without a moment’s delay. Not so with gold. A few day* ago a gentle­ man brought to our bank upward of 83,000 in gold of different denomina­ tions, and was much provoked because ' we could not receive it forthwith and S'vo him credit with the amount the ce of the coin represented. This we could not do, because the law require* that gold shall be redeemed only at ite actual value. Coins carried in the pocket for any length of time naturally lose Fomething in weight by abrasion, probably but a fractional part of a cent on a 810 piece, but it i* a loss, nevertheless, and therefore banker* cannot give credit for gold deposits until the coin shall have been weighed. In the case in point mv friend took his gold to the Treasury Department and was compelled to wait there nearly au hour before ho could get notes for it. Every coin had to lie passed through the scales, and after the weighing process had been completed, three coiua—two 85 pieces and one 810 piece —were returned to him as short in weight. Before returning short-weight coius the department stamps on the face of each a cross. The owner is left to either send the coins to the United States Mint for redemption or to again put them iuto circulation Eventually the coins with crones on their faces will go to the mint and be redeemed at their actual value. In many instances there may not be more than a few cent*’ shortage on 850 worth of coin. Business men, however, naturally ob­ ject to the inconvenience, and get rid of their gold as fust as jxjssible.”— Indianapoli* Journal.

[ran FrancUco dispatch.] King Kalakaua died hero this after­ noon after a day and a half of terrible agony, In which all the forew of thi* unusually strong man rallied to resist death. Ho lay through the early morn­ ing hours in a aeml-consclons state, occa­ sionally seeming to recognize what was said to him. He seemed lo improve a •trifle after sunr.se, but about 10 o’clock a rolla^M occurred and a report got out that he was dead. The news waa made known at the hotel office and bulletins rushed East, but soon thi* intelligence was denied by the physicians. They kept the King alive by stimulants exact­ ly a* the doctors sustained Grant’s strength- He would have died early last evening except for liberal hypodermic injection* of liquor. The question of the succession Is very simple, and will be peacefully settled. Kalakaua succeeded Lunalllo, the last of the Kamehamchg, dynasty. When Kalakaua was elected be named aa hi* successor Princess Lilliuokalaui, hl* sister, who Is married to an American named John Odomtnii*. She Is now Re­ gent, having been appointed such just before Kalakaua sailed on his visit to this country last month. All she will have to do is to take the oath of office and be crowned as Queen Kalakaua I., the deceased King of tho Hawaiian or Sandwich Islands, ron of Keohokalulo and Kapaakca, a native Hawaiian of the original royal blood, wa* born Nov. 15. 1-836. After the death of King Kamehsmehu in 1873, without natural or appointed heirs, Prince Lunalllo was elected to the Hawaiian throne, and at his death a year later High Chief Kalakaua was elected over Queen Emma to fill the place on Feb. 13, 1874, though his coronation, with that of his wife, tho late Queen Kaplolani. was deferred to Feb. 12. 188X Kalakaua’s reign was characterized by a large Influx of foreigners and outside capital into the kingdom. Through the Immigration of Portuguese and Chinese, early encouraged by him, the -country has been opened up aud its resources largely developed. In 1876 Kalakaua visited this country, and during hl* stay here the reciprocity treaty with Hawaii was contracted, which proved of ’immense profit to the realm. Before this In the early portion of his reign Kalakaua had permitted the native clement to relapse almost to its original state of barbarism, and had himself reverted to paganism and heathen rites, manners and customs and resisted missionary advice in tbe management of his affairs. In 1881 tho King had quite changed his views about the admission of foreigners, and he mado a tour of the world, with a view to en­ courage emigration. His character was a strange one, and partly through tho novelty of the spectacle of barbaric roy­ alty errant and partly for more politic reasons, his receptions here and In Europe were marked by a most flatter­ ing display. Thus while he failed In his original object, he became Imbued with a passion for royal forms that has since nigh pauperized his realm. In tbe many changes of his ministry, which oc­ curred through the vicissitudes accom­ panying bls numerous levies upon bls mixed and restless subjects, a few shrewd Americans have managed suc­ cessively to control him by pampering hl* taste for extravagance and display, while they have collected private for­ tune* for themselves. A few of his eccentric acts were the 875.000 celebration iff bls fiftieth birth­ day. a 860,000 obsoquy for a relative, and the expenditure of 80,000 for the fitting out ot an embassy to tbe Samoan King to Induce him to accept Hawaiian “Tutelage." Through sinecures, licensesand bribes, revenues from the Queen's lands, and hi* regular income, the annual Hawaiian appropriations for the royal family came to about 8500,00a In 1887 the white residents, upon whom the burden of hl* extravagance fell, plotted and success­ fully carried out a bloodless revolution, by which Kalakaua was forced to re­ pudiate his ministerial favorites, and In a new constitution to yield the legisla­ tive powers to an elective assembly, while the principle of ministerial re­ sponsibility was adopted. King Kala­ kaua always entertained the highest re­ spect for the United States, as well as a predilection for Americans. Through this disposition on the dead King's part, this country has become by the new treaty of 1884 possessor ot exclusive rights to the fine harbor of Pearl River in Oahu, and he had frequently mani­ fested a wish for ties still closer between the two nations.

The richest among this tribe is Aa Joens, who owns over 3,000 reindeer, the value of which- is estimated at 100,000 crowns ($25,000). Some year* ago he camo with his wife from the Kjoelen Moun­ tains. where he usually sojourns, to the little city of Ostereund ia order to purchase a bridal outfit for his only* daughter, Maja, who was to be married to one of the tribe. Upon that occasion they were photo­ graphed, and one of the sketches repre­ sents the young bride in her luxurious. E bridal garments. Like all Laplandera, every member of the ’ family ia small in stature and not at all good­ looking. The funniest thing about “Million­ aire" Joens is his hat, which, it will beobserved, makes a desperate attempt to shape itself into the style of the plug hat of civilization.

The origin of the fire in unknown.—Battle Creek M9od. On Thunday of last week John R. Bowk, one of Brookfield’s moat ener­ getic and excellent young men, was accidentally injured ao that death re­ sulted in a few hours. Himself and William Wixon, a neighbor, had cut a large oak tree which m falling caught tho top ol a small ash tree and bore it near the ground. In cutting a limb from tho oak which with the small ash held the oak up. partially, the large tree sank to the ground and in so doing snapped the small ash off and the top of this in faHing struck him on the back of the head with the fearful re­ sult mentioned.

Jerome, living with his son on the'Doty farm, near the Eagle coal mine, took laudanum Tuesday night and died from tbe effects of it on Wed­ nesday. It appears that tho evening of Mr. Jerome’s life has not been as pleasant an one could wish, owing to discords and family jars. Several years ago he separated from his family and about a year ago he made au un­ successful attempt upon hia life. After he recovered he returned home to his family where he has continued to live. Tuesday moruing he came to town, on some business, and among other pur­ chases was a package tor his daughter who was very sick. He returned home in the evening slightly under the infldence of liquor, carrying the package to the house, gave It to the folks telling them who it waa for, and then went to the baru and laid himself down upon the hay. About five o’clock in the eve­ ning one of the boys noticed him layimr down but made no attempt to get him up and into the house, aud give him the care that a father should have from a son, no matter und^r what con­ dition he mav be in, aud in the morn­ ing when they went to the barn he waa beyond {recovery, haring sometime during the night, taken the laudanum, au empty two ounce phial labeled laud­ anum having been found by his aide.

There are various methods of “tapping." The primitive mode Is to use an ax, cutting a notch In the side of the tree, slanting upward a little, and tho lower aldo uf tho notch also slanting down a little, so as to form a channel to conduct the sap to tho lower end of the notch. Under the lower end of this notch, two or three enough to bear the weight. An Improve­ ment on the old neck­ yoke Is the ox or horse sled with the “gather­ ing tub,* a largo cask o r hogshead firmly chained on between four stakes It IS necessary to take this, road ------through precaution __ the — -----— the* woods often Iles among rocks or over old logs buried in the snow, so that every­ thing has to be made fast Another method sometimes adopted makes the work much easier, but Involves consider­ able expense, and can only be made use of where the sugar orchard stands on a hillside. This plan Is to run troughs, supported on stakes at Intervals from the top to the bottom of tho hill, and Into these main arteries tho sap from each tree is conducted by shorter side troughs. In this wav. when everything k* properly arranged, t io sap rotn the entire plantation would run out In p continuous stream, falling into a reser-' voir er vat at tho boiling place at the foot of the hill. But this plan, for ob­ vious reasons, Is not generally adopted. The sled and gathering tub Is the usual way. When this tub, holding about perimems mado by Use French have been »o far successful aa to leave little doubt that the captive balloon will play a part In the next naval war on the staff of every commander.

York and New En­ gland. says a writer In tho Avurican Affrtoulturtot, and somewhat earlier In Northern Indi­ ana and Southern Michigan. Thirty years ago our Im­ plements as well as urway*of making gar from the sap were more primi­ tive than thoM! now Inches down, a tapping gouge Is driven into the treffi so a* to cut nearly or quite through the bark, and Into the Incision thus made a concave spout, six to twelve Inches long. Isdriven.oncendof the spout being sharpened so as to fit the Incision. Under the end of the spout i s placed a cedar bucket, to catch tho sap. This process Is vari­ ously modified. A nail or iron spike Isdrlvcn Into the tree below tho spout, tho bucket being hung on this spike instead of standing on the ground: and, instead of the slanting notch, a hole Is often bored with a threequarters or one-inch augur, and Into this holo a round. hollow wooden tube, slur penod a little at one end. Is driven. The notch made with an ax Is supposed to yield more sap, a* in this way more of tho woody fiber is cut through, and. In a large, healthy tree, the sap Hows not -only from the outer layer of wood butas well from the deepest part of the cut. By the usual mode of tupping, the trees are uot materially Injured, even when the tapping is annually repeated for many years. At St Regis, on the Sl Lawrence, at tho mouth of the St. Regis River, are maples that have been '.ap|>cd by tho Indians for over one hun­ dred years, and thc-o trees, though much swollen around tfc*« base from tho oftrepeated wounds, are still vigorous, and are bclicvefl to yield more sap than trees that have novrr been tapped. The flow of |*ap"dQpcnds, of course, on tho vigor of the tree, and of two trees, equally sound and vigorous, one standing In the tyicn ground yields more sap than one standing in the woods. The more limbs the more tap, us doubtless the root* cor­ respond in size and extent to the top, and It is tho little rootlets that furnish tho sap. If a root is cut off at some distanco from the tree, more sap flows from tho severed root than would be yielded by cutting off an equal amount of woody fiber In tho trunk above, or oy severing a branch. After the trees uro tapped, the next stop Is to “gather* the sap. in i the most primitive mode this Is done by j। m „ MVV V1, two a O1WI1 man going to each tree, „, with WOod™-ball.d bucki-ls. and la tlaue 1 hHnot n<r thn .> tn >,n •Mw.dinn ..i.™ bringing tho Htt sap to ftho ‘boiling place." These buckets arc often hung on hooks at each end of the neckyoke. This way of gathering tho sap is very laborious *'• and fatiguing, es­ pecially tt-hen the snow is deep and there (U) pose hls own force as circumstances might require. Each leader might thus maneuver his men as Ina game of chess, with every regard to strategic principles, knowing every move of his adversary. Admiral Bleunler, Maritime Prefect near Toulon, recently made very satis­ factory experiments with a view to util­ izing the balloon for naval war purposes. .The Admiral took J?.is seat In the car, and the balloon was allowed to ascend, being then stopped, lowered, and man­ euvered at the pleasure of the Admiral, whn conveyed hls orders to terra lirma by means of a telephone wire twined around the cablo that held the balloon captive. After descending with great ease, the end of the balloon cable was mado fast to a torpedo boat. which steamed out into the open sea and returned, always with .the balloon In tow. The cable was then shifted to a won drawn by eight men, .preceded and followed by an escort of M’.iirty six men. A march wa* made over warl.:ua obstacles, and it was thus de­ monstrated u> the great satisfaction of the Admiral that a captive balloon can accompany a landing party cither afloat or ashore, and possibly be of Important oervicc to it. Other trials lately made prove conclu•alvely that a I sltoou can be maneuvered -without Incoaveni’-nec even tn a masted «hlp. and can bo inflated and used with ggp HE sugar sea*on 11 Ix-glnR alraut the |i end of March In , I | ’ WtKt lag near th© middle In a too hot. The kettle suspended from the end of a polt! Is a very primitive method, and a* rcgagls fuel is very WMteful. re­ quiring a heavy log oa each ride of the kettle, with two lighter plows laid crusswiao'to form a framework for holding tn place the wood which must be constantly supplied to keep up the fire. ’ Having <-^'rythlhg read?, the kettle Is filled with sap, which is usually run into it by means of a trough from the vat. Often during a heavy run of sap tho kettles are kept continuously boiling for two days and night*, by which time their contents will have become concentrated into a thin sirup. The stream from the! vat is now shut_off and the sirup stiM further concentrated, when It Is dipped out and *»rained through a woolen strainer, and set away In buckets or oth.-r vessels to settle. This part of the proceM Is called slrnplng off. When tho sirup has become well settled. It I* earefullv turned or drawn off so as not to disturb the sed­ iment at the bottom: It is again poured into the kettle for tho final proce-s, sugaring off. Tho sirup, being now con­ siderably concentrated, has a great tendeucy to boll over. To prevent this, a few drops of cream are thrown in occa­ sionally, or a piece of fat pork is snspended on a string fo as to hang a few inches below the rim of the kettle. In all ordinary cases this is sufficient. It is curious to note bow ln that part of tho kettle where the cream has been thrown In. the boiling sugar at once begins to settle back with a peculiar noise like a series of slight explosions, as tho largo bubbles rise to tho. surface and burst. The piece of fat pork Is equally offi< acinus, the boiling liquid at once fallipg back on corn^g In contact with it Cold sap, or milk, ur tho while of twoor throo eggs Is put In to clarify the sirup, which is kept simmering over a light fire for an hour or more, when a heavy srum rises to tho .surface. This is carefully skimmed off aud tho fire made to burn briskly to boil down the sirup- to the proper point for sugar. This is deter­ mined by taking out a little In a saucer and stirring it with a spoon to see wheth­ er it will grain* or a spo. nful is spread on the snow tocanjdy, and If when cold this Is brittle enough to break like glass it in­ dicates that tho boiling has gone far enough, and the kettle Is ntor.ee swung off and its contents dipped into the sugar tub or poured/into tin milk pans to cake. The caked stlgar Is Intended mostly for market; that-'meant for family'use being dipped Into tho sugar tub and stirred briskly at intervals with a stout stick, to facilitate the pro c«s of graining or granulation. When It has reached this stage the sugar has an appearance simi­ lar to raw cano sugar, only a rather darker shade.

Some sugar orchards yield sugar with more of this, deleterious substance tl»|n others. It is supposed to bo due to tho nature of tho soil, and It has also been tjollced to be more abundant In sugar made from trees that have been tapped for many years. Ono of (Jolliiiin'M Fuu- Hundred.

[Younsw:>od (Pa.) dl«patcn-] By an explosion of gas atMimmotls Mines N<k J, liftmen were killed. fcMxtyfivo buttes wore recovered. The mine ''is on fire, and it Is believed the unfortu­ nate dead will be> cremated before it Is possible to touch them. An army of men-N at work in tho pit endeavoring to stay the tire and recover the dead bodies. They are making little headway, how­ ■ever. A car-load of coffins was received this evening. One hundred and ten men wore em­ ployed In that part of the mine In which the explosion occurred, and nut one was left to tell the story of the disaster. Not more than fifty men were killed by the explosion. The others wore overcome by the after damp. While sumo of the bodies were horribly burned, torn, and mutilated, others were found with their teeth clinched on the iron rail of tho pit road. Others were found with their faces plunged Into tho water. Not a few knelt as If in prayer when their un­ timely end came. Fire-boss Sncath’was identified only by his gum-boots. He must have boon nearest the explosion. Ills body was scattered about in dozens of pieces. Hls head was pulled from his shoulders. Both hls -logs wore torn off. Ills cloth­ ing was ripped Into shreds. That part of his body recovered waa roasted and blackened. Hls mutilated body was (bund where the explosion is supposed to have, occurred. His safety lamp was shattered Into numberh*s.«. pieces. Hls left band clutching his lamp was found over one hundred feet from the trunk of hls body, and one of his gum-boots was found fifty yards away. . One of hls feet with part of the legattached was picked up. When tho parts of hls body w»-re collet t.-d and sent in a sheet to tho plV mouth thnr were identi­ fied by an engineer who recognized tho gum-boou. All the officials of tho Fricke Coke Company are In the dark as to th'- cause of the explosion. Flre-Boss Sncath in­ spected the mine before work was begun this morning, and hls written report, filed a few hours before he was killed, sets forth that the mine was safe at that time. When tho volunteers entered the mine a sight Impossible to picture met them. Bank cars, mules, and—more terrible than all—m^n wore piled In a compact mass against tha ribs or walls of coal, and not a living thing was In the wreck­ age. Il was almost a* solid as tho coal itself, so terrific was the force ut tho explosion. This obstruction was r.moved with difficulty, and they entered a chamber of horrors. Tho first object they discovered after leaving tho main entry was a gum boot. In It was the leg of a man Farther on they found a human head, but nowhero in sight was the trunk that had borne it but a f<-w minutes before. After walking a dis­ tance, surrounded by dangers unseen, but more terrible than can be imagined, they found tho trunk. Tjie ragged neck with tho blood oozing from it told tho story of tho appalling disaster. Work­ ing tboir way in. the band found tho bodies strewn along tho gangway. Every man in the headings where tho explosion occurred was killed. None were Injured and lived.- I.’ead bodies wore brought up every few minutes, and tho crowd at Urn* shaft mouth simply fell back to allow tho mon carrying tho stretchers room to pas*. Every corpse was covered, and no uno even ventured to Inquire which body it was. for it was known that every on<* in that part of the mine at the time of the explosion General Manager Lynch of the H. C. Fricke Coke Company is on tho scene helping to dovbn means to rescue tho perisfoKl wprkmen. His assistance is tnvaluablo, as ho has many years’ ex­ perience in mining operations. Tho nntnimoth plant embraces SOO ovens, one of tho largest plants In the coko regions, but It is hard of access. It is situated near the United Works, where an explo­ sion recently destroyed the entire shaft. Tho affair has cast a gloom over tho entire coke region, and to-night hun­ dreds of miners arc flicking to the scene of the disaster offering assistance. Tho appalling loss of life in the Dunbar dis­ aster Is more than overshadowed by tho destruction of life In this mam­ moth calamity. Language is too weak to describe the scenes at the mines. Horror is piled on horror. The news spread throughout the entire coke region and everybody was awe-stricken. Tho only man who escaped was Mine Boss Eaton. Among those killed are John Beverage and .1. Boles, formerly of this place. Tho former resided horn for tpa»y years and was held in high esteem by everybody. He was a roadman in tho shaft Ex-Mine Inspector Koighly. tho Superintendent of the fatal shaft, is nearly distracted. It is a singular fact that misfortune seems to havo followed him.

Ho commenced to walk in the direction of a part of tho town where he knew he would tlnd cheap lodging-bouses for all nationalities, and as he passed along San Martin street be saw a woman ap­ proaching him whose peculiar carriage and light, airy step be thought ho rec­ ognized. He eagerly watched her movements and became almost con­ A STORY OF RETRIBUTION. Shortly afterwards Percy was well and strong again. He did not devote hls time to uselessly bewailing his fata, Dutchman told him -to do and en­ deavored to do his utmost to please. Ho had an object in carrying out this course pt action and after learning a few words 'of the Mongrel-SpSnish spoken, by the hands around tho place be grow inti­ mate with them as far as hls knowledge of tho language would permit. He was thus better capable of entering into their work and sport with a vim and earnestness which made him lots of friends among thorn. * While it might have taken hit* years to have learned to ride a horse with any thing approach­ ing the ease that a Gaucho did it, he soon became very expert and in brief moments, when his thoughts of anxious friends left him, ho would really some­ what enjoy hltnsclf. It was getting to be about time for the tall Spaniard to put in an appear­ ance again when Van Nopp also sacmod to be growing friendly to him. In one brief week this friendship had improved and grown to such a degree that ho would tako Percy with him very often when ho drove to tho head station, about ten miles further north. iLwas on one of those occasions that Percy found a welcome opportunity to effect an escape. They were driving home at dusk when, without a warning sign of any kind, one of the wheels came off their vehicle and throw the riders to the ground. Percy turned a summer­ sault and fell on his shoulders, sustain­ ing no further Injury than a rough shak- • ing, but bis companion was not so fortunate, for ho fell on.his aldo and, in falling, broke his arm. Here was what would have under or­ dinary circumstances seemod like an unfortunate occurrence, but Percy hailed it with delight He was not pleased to see the praying old Dutch­ man In trouble, but ho at once saw a means of escape. Ho was dressed in the garb of a native, but that made no difference, and once on a river ateamer ho would be safe. Ho Mt the broken arm of the Dutchman as host he could with hls limited knowledge of surgery and then presumably turned hls atten’tlon to tbo repair of ths wagon. Find­ ing that the wheel could not be fastened on without the assistance of a black­ smith. os the little pin from the axle was lost, Percy proposed that he should ride back to th.e head station and bring the smith from there. To this, the Dutchman, anxious to get home, con­ sented, and in a few minutes Percy was rjding as fast as his horse could carry him to freedom. Bow the Dutchman spent the night Lovel never knew; for himself, he spent most of it in the saddle. In th’e morning he reached a small town on the banks of the river, where he sold the horse fur an insignificant sum, and with it ho boarded a river steamer and took the cheapest passage he could purchase down to Buenos hope that the villain who had caused hls abduction would still be there, and be had made up bis mind to make short work of bringing him to justice. It would be difficult to describe Per­ cy’s feelings when ho once mare camo in sight of the blue and white porcelain domes of Buenos Ayres He fondly Im­ agined that in a few hours he would be able to exchange the rags which covered hls body for clothing which would bet­ ter become hls handsome form. He walked boldly up to the hotel where he had stayed a few months be­ fore and introduced himself as the miss­ ing Mr. Huntly. in less time than it takes to record it he was being hustled into tho street, and as he passed a mirror in the hall-way he at once be­ came aware of the reason which pre­ vented him from being recognized. He could not himself believe thst the ob­ ject of which he caught a momentary glance was Percy Lovel. His face was brown and dirty-looking, his uncut hair hung in a disheveled state over his shoulders, and his untrimmed beard helped to make him a most pltfhble ob­ ject such as none would recognize as the genial Englishman whose body was sup­ posed to hive been taken from the river weeks before. When ho reached the street he wandered aimlessly about and finally decided to go to the American consulate. There be introduced him­ self, bnt met with an even worse recep­ tion than heuexperleneed at the hotel The consul was not to be seen, and the young men iu charge of the office dl nothing but sneer and attempt to still vinced that he had seen her before. As he passed her he st once knew t^at she was tae woman whom he hud seen leaving the concert hall with Emerick a few nights after he first reached Buenos Ayres. He did not immediately accost her, but turned around and followed her. The woman appeared aware that she was being followed, and when Percy cautiously approached to speak she stopped suddenly and faced him. Her attitude was one of defense, but Percy’s first words being spoken tn clear En­ glish, she felt reassured and kindly asked him what she could do for him. “I am searching for Mr. Emerick,” he replied. “Can you tell me any thing of him?" ' “Mr. Emotdck!" she said, in as­ tonished tones. "Why, what hars yon to do with him?” Under tho shadow pf a doorway they drew together, and Percy gave a hurried outline of hls recent adventures, wind­ ing up by asking her if she could help him in any way. "I can and 1 will," was the reply. “I havo some influential friends here who will soon restore you to your rights. Come to me st this address to-morrow and I will see that a gentleman who can render you assistance is there to moot you." As she spoke she drew a card from her pocket, on one side of which Percy read the words “Belle Lorimer.". and on tho other her address, written in lead pencil Percy spent that night in a miserable lodging house that was scarcely better than the mud hut which had been his shelter during the cold night on the Pampas; but he did not sleep much, his anxiety being too great, and was out on the streets sgain in the early morn anxiously awaiting the hour when be could meet Belle Loritrer. “Do not examine it now,” she raid. “Look at it some other time.” Percy slipped it into his pocket In a few minutes h« left the bouse and stepped Into a carriage with the Colonel About two hours later one would not hare recognized In tho Mr. Huntly, who walked toward the custom-house building, the dirty, ragged-looking tramp who was so rudely thrust from the hotel. The change of dress, to­ gether with a neatly-trimmed beard, made all the difference In the world, and Percy Lovel was once more Mr. Huntly.* Under those conditions It was not difficult for Percy to make himself known, and with the assistance of his newly-found friend. Colonel Brandon, ho was soon in possession of his own clothing, snd was able once more to jingle the nimble and necessary dollar in hispockdt Everybody was of course surprised, but no one seemed sufficiently interest­ ed in him to demand a complete history of his adventure. Buenos Ayroa is happily free from tho inquisitorial pests which so often defeat tho ends of justice by their ill-timed “interviews." Consequently Percy left the city with­ out a word being sent to the outer world to announce his reappearance in the land of the living. It was a fortun­ ate thing that such wss the case, for it gave him tho chance to followup thetrail with greater certainty of overtak­ ing the man for whom he was search­ ing. He lost no time preparing to shake the dust of Buenos Ayres from off his feet, and in a few days he was bound for New York over precisely the same route which the object of hls pursuit had taken a few months before. In an inside vest pocket of his traveling suit ho bad placed the little package which Belle Lorimer had given him, but it never occurred to him to examine it. There it lay Mid did not sec daylight during tbo whole .of the voyage. Upon arriving at Now York he pro­ ceeded at'once to the house in Gramercy Park, but was surprised, on applying for admission, to find that bis friends were no longer living there. Ho in­ quired whithor they had gone and was told that they had loft for Europe. Again ho found himself aimlessly walking tho streets of a great city, but this time^he was *hetter propared for an emergency and walked only to get an opportunity for thought and not from CHAPTER XIX On the night when Bello Lorimer was overtaken by Percy Lovel she was on the way to perform her nightly duties at the theater and as soon as she reached her dressing-room she sat down and penned a hasty note which she folded in a sweet-scented envelope and gave to a boy who stood waiting. “Run with this to the Foreign Club, aud if the gentleman to whom it is addressed is not there wait until1 he comes -if you have to wait till midnight Anyhow, deliver it to him with your own hands" The note was addressed to “Colonel Brandon" and it read as follows: “Several years ago I was on tho full tide of prosperity In London and half the society men of that city bent the knee to me. At that time you came and asked me to assist you out of a financial dilemma. I did so and you promised to return the favor whenever the oppor­ tunity presented itself. I noticed your name on the recent ! 1st of distinguished arrivals in thia city and now havo a small favor to ask Please call at my rooms to-morrow at eleven o'clock a. m. and hear it Bklt.k Lorimer.” The boy delivered the note within an hour and at the appointed time next day the Colonel, who was a man of bis word, presented himself at the some­ what bumble apartments of the actress. She lost no time, but immediately en­ tered into the purpose of the interview, giving him.a brief history of tho occur­ rences of tho past few months, so far as Mr. Emerick Percy, and herself were concerned. She proceeded: “All that I have to ask you is that you will do your utmost to secure this gentleman's iden­ tity at the American Consulate ar ’ nt tho hotel That accomplished 1 shall consider your obligation towards me en­ tirely cancelled.1* •' “So far as I am able, I will help you in every way,” responded the officer. They had reached this point in the con­ versation when Percy was announced. He was still a pitiable-looking object, bnt his countryman easily discovered that he was a gentleman and offered him every assistance. It was arranged that Percy should go to the Colonel's room and. after having a bath and bls toilet attended to. don a suit of tho Colonel's clothes, after which the wor­ thy office, proposed to exert his influ­ ence among the city and diplomatic magnates to procure for Percy his bag­ gage and personal effects, which bad been left at the hotel, as well as his bal­ ance in the River Plate Bank. Before Percy loft with Colonel Bran­ don. Belle Lorimer drew him aside and asked in earnest tones: “What is the secret of Mr. Emerick’s life? I am sure •*I have my own supposition," an­ swered Percy, “but it may be wide of the mark.” “Whatever your supposition is, follow it np to the last thread. Tho man Is as bad as mortal man can be. His very touch would befoul a sower-rat, and there Is nq crime which he could not commit and smile over. I am convinced that thero is a dreadful secret in his lite and shall rejoice if the day ever arrives when it can be unearthed. In a few weeks I leave hero for London, and should you ever have a communication to make to me concerning that smooth­ tongued despoiler of a woman s virtue, you can address me at Martineau’s Dra­ matic Agency." Then drawing from her SOME OTHER TIME.” compulsion. After strolling nearly a mile. In a slow and dcjoctod manner, ho took a car down-town, and visited Em­ erick A Company’s office on Pesrl street. What ho might have done, had Mr. Enerlck been there, we will not presume to guess, but on reaching the floor upon which the office was formerly located he walked to the glass door and noticed that another name was painted upon it. Inquiry from the janitor elicited tho in­ formation that the firm of Emerick 4 Co. was no longer in existence. Percy was now utterly at his wits’ end and bafited. Ho know not how to move and could form no definite plan of action. Every thing seemod to be working against him. The Delaros and Mr. Wllpox (it must be remembered ho knew nothing of his old friend's death) in Europe; Emerick, he knew not where; himself wandering alone in New York; what should he do? * He retraced hls steps up-town, engaged rooms ata hotel and sat down to consider. “What is the use of going to Europe?" he thought. “I might never find them; and yot I can not stay bare alone." Why ho did not at once repair to Mr. Wil­ cox’s lawyers be could never afterwards explain, but he did Rot do so. After many hours of consideration he resolved to tako the first steamer to Europe. It a few days he was passing Sandy Hook, and a week later he was anxiously expecting to see the Fastnet Light During tho voyage he had not mingled much with the company on board. He was too much enwrapped in his own thoughts to care to investigate those of others. So he kept himself aloof. One day when in mid-Atlantic he be­ thought him of the little package which Belle Lorimer had given him and re­ solved to open it Retiring to his state­ room and taking from his valise the vest, in tbo pocket of which he had he would have valued as a precious treasure, had he known what it was. Carefully unwrapping it he found that it contained an insignificant Portuguese silver coin with a small hole bored through it The small width of silver between the bole and tho edge of the coin had worn away, indicating that the coin bad doubtless fallen from whatever it had originally suspended from—probably Mr. Emerick’s watch chain. Inclosed with the coin was a little note, which read: “Examine the edge of this coin all round.” Percy did so. and noticed that in one purl the milling had been filed or ground fiat and on the smooth «!,« was a monogram executed In so minute a manner that without a microscope it would be intpoesible to distinguish tho letters. Not'having a microscope in his pos­ session Level borrowed one from an This sup- but It is not his alone. There is at least one other who shares tho knowledge of It, and it shall not be long before It be­ comes public property. I must and will find the villain yet” ■ These and similar thoughts crowded Percy’s brain as they sailed through the heavy mist hanging over the Mer­ sey to the Liverpool docks Resting in the great sea-port but a few hours, he went direct to London. One might have supposed that ho would havo sought the home of his childhood; bnt that had long lost- all charm for him. ’ Ho had but one present purpose to fulfill; and in importance it seemed to him para­ mount to all others. He arrived in London about two days after Mr. Emerick; yet, although at times they were not much more than arm’s length apart, they never con­ fronted each other in the crowded streams of human life which surged up and down tho city's streets. Mrs. Delaro and Armida also returned to London about the same time. Eugene Bregy lost no time in colling on them, and they expressed much de­ light st seeing him; while ho, on his par’-, was overjoyed beyond measure, snd seemed so pleased that ho acted al­ most foolishly. Ho at once made him­ self exceedingly.familiar and insisted on accompanying the ladies everywhere they went Finding that ho would have no oppor­ tunity of speaking to Armida in private while in the busy, noisy city, amid the incessant din of business, pleasure­ seekers snd callers, Eugene invited her to take a trip with him as far as Rich­ mond. This beautiful spot was looking its best. In true English fashion they went to tho "Star and Garter,” the most fashionable hotel in tho place, and par­ took of tea served Ln tho conventional manner, with cold meats, chickens, salads, watercresses, etc. Afterwards they walked up the hill to the park, and there, while sitting on tho grass in a place where they could obtain a fine view of that exquisite bit of valley scenery, they commenced to talk. Armida seemed as though she could not take her eyes from the sight which lay before her. It was* not rugged or romantic, such as Armida bad known in her own country—it was purely English —a grassy valley along which flowed the Thamc-s, hemmed in by sloping hill­ sides covered with parks and ancient forests. She thought it was the most pleasing and entrancing sight she had ever beheld. As far as tho eye could roach tho waters of tbo Thames could bo seen winding through the valley like a silver ribbon. On the sides of the quiet/rh the hillsides were covered with luxuriant foliage of the brightest hues, and the surface of the river was flecked with little ploasnre craft, whoso gay-colored canopies added to the bright­ ness, if not the grandeur, of the scene. Now and then a few bars of a sprightly catch or gloe would be wafted upon the gentle breeze from the pleasure-seekers on the water below/ Eugene allowed Armida to revol in the exceptional beauty of the scene for a time and then approached gently the subject nearest bls heart He did itclumsily enough, but with tho utmost confidence that ho would be successful in his suit “Miss Delaro," he said, hesitatingly, । “I havo brought you here to tell you something." Armida looked at him quizzingly, and said: "It must be something of a very important nature if you found it neces»sacy to bring me all the way here for tho purpose of tolling me." "Yea, it is. Indeed. I wanted to tell you that—I love you," ho saidThese were probably the very Isst words which Armida would have ex­ pected to hear from his lips, and all at once she recognized that she had acted unwisely. In the next few seconds she accused herself of numberless unwise actions to which she had never given thought before. She blamed herself for leading this young man on to such an extent and In a moment bitterly repent­ ed that she bad not acted with more discretion. All these thoughts were chasing each other with frightful rapid­ ity through her mind, and she was try­ ing to formulate a reply when Eugene spoke sgain: "May I ever hope for some return of my passion?" ho asked, btill Armida could not answer, thuugb she knew that Eugene would' in a few seconds misin­ terpret her meaning for a silent consent if she did not speak. At last, with an effort, she gathered . her senses and replied: "Eugene, you have made a great mistake; such a thought has never entered my head- I admire you, respect you, but love you— oh—never." “Then your actions hsve belled you,” said Eugene, rudely. "If they have it has been contrary to my intentions," replied the beautiful girl. "I would not for thu world have misled you." “That is a pretty speech to make now,” said Eugene. "You ought to havo thought of that in the by-gone months and not havo deluded me,” he continued in a passionate manner, and told her how she bad led- him, by her kind and sympathetic Actions, to think she must have some greater regard than friendship for him, and assumed the In­ jured air of one who had been greatly wronged. But it made no change in Armida; she admitted the truth of his assertions, but Insisted thst it could not change her sentiments. Eugene pleaded, but his strenuous ef­ forts were of no avail, and it v-as with a heavy heart and a jealous mind that he went bock to town. That night as Armida was tearfully Elating tho oc­ currences of the evening to her mother. Eugene and bis father were closeted together in another part of the city. "I am convinced it is nothing but my poverty which keeps that girl from loving me; she is as proud as an old Spanish countess, but I will humble nor yet.

Persuasion had failed to destroy ths young man’s morals, but the green­ eyed monster had gained an easy victory over his good intentions. "Now you are talking sense, my boy. We will get to business at once. I have a man ready to go to New York and I know he will act fair and square and divide with" us when the time comes. So tbo sooner you get that handwriting tho better. If you have any smartness at all about you you can easily dolt, and wo must have tho writing to carry the thing through." These were’ the words which Eugene’s answer elicited. He listened attentively and asked: "Well, wnat do you propose to do?” “The first step will havo to lie taken by you," said Emerick, "but I will make a suggestion. Tho man who is to per­ sonate Percy Lore! is an expert pen­ man and can easily learn to sign hls name like the Englishman, * but you must get the copy; and tbo best means 1 know will be this: you bad better maintain your pleasant relations with the Belarus and tell Armida that you mado a great mistake which need not sever your friendship You will then be speedily reinstated In your former position with tho family.

The rope sunk deep into the tied), and he wa* utterly unable to help himself. The lower portion of the body indicated that some wild animal had been gnawing at him. Hardly had the traveler passed .one than he came upon .another aud similar spectacle. All tho way to Altomey hundreds o' wretches were exposed uj>on crosses, some of them dying and others dead. His guard told him that all these were Egbas captured in the recent raid and punished in this way for resisting BedS'in, who claimed'to be the lord paramount of the Egba country. In ono place where a cress had stood wax curled up an immense python. The serpent had apparently been making some effort to swallow the man on the cross, for the latter won crushed to a jelly, aud the cross lay recumbent and broken on tho ground. But the pitiless rope of vine still hold the romaine to the timber, and the serpent was disap­ pointed in its meal. The doomed mis­ erabies had been exposed to their fate in tbo course of the previous throe days, and within a week the sun, the insects, and the wild beasts nnd birds would leave little more than the bones.

Horri­ fied and maddened by the fearful crime of the monster, the people demanded blood, and had Canfield been still In the Jail here this night would have been hl* last, it was .hi* fear of mob vengeance that caused liitn to confess, and dread of. tiro vigilantes’ rope drove him to plead guilty and seek safety behind the solid walls of the State’s prison. Sheriff Pollock saw the prisoner In his cell this morning and told him of the danger ho .was in from the enraged people. lie seemed to feel this by Intuiton, and seemed to ba witling to do anything to save hi* miserable neck. When tlie Sheriff asked him if he desired to plead guilty as he had confessed he replied. “Yes, I’ll plead guilty tu murdering the girl at anytime.” The prosecuting at­ torney was seen and Judge Hooker notified. Early In the afternoon Canfield, the Sheriff and tlie prosecutor slipped quietly into the court-room by. a ride door, and the chargo was read to Can­ field. ills dull, sleepy eyes looked un­ easily at the windows as If fearing a bul­ let He hardly understood the reading or the Importance of the chargo as It was read to him. When It was finished he was asked: “Do you plead guilty or not guilty?" “I am guilty," said the wretch, and he shivered as tf. with an ague chill. Judge Hooker then sen­ tenced him to Imprisonment for life, and at once the Sheriff hustled him on a Michigan Central train, and he was taken to the State's prison to undergo his life­ long punishment. The story as told by the murderer and taken down is substantially this: Canfield went from Dimondale to Jonesville on Tuesday morning, Jan. 27, by rail, from the latter place going to Coldwater. After spending some time in this town, be visited the State School and had a talk with Super­ intendent Newkirk. He told the latter that he wanted to adopt a girl from the Institution, saying he would provide a good home for her and alleging, as was true, that he was possessed of a com­ fortable property. He gave his name to the Superintendent as G. Hendershott, and finally made arrangements to take Nellie Griffin with him to his alleged home. In company with the girl he re­ turned to Jonesville and thence to Dimondale. After getting off the train at tho latter place Canfield, will bls victim, took the road' leading to Mr. Harrison's farm. Before reaching it he struck off the traveled highway, going through several tracts of wood until he. with bls charge, reached the piece of timber by the river where the body was found. They talked for a few moments and Nellie manifested great distress of mind and wept bitterly, begging Canfield to take her back to the institution at Coldwater. Turning a deaf ear to the glri'a plead lugs, Canfield struck tier down .and choked her to death. He then denuded her body of clothing, knd, taking the corpse In his anus, threw it headlong into the river. The clothes he took to Harrison's farm and hid them under the floor of the cow stable. Canfield maintained stubbornly to the last that be bad not abused his victim. When Canflold had signed this con­ fession of his guilt ho was at once locked up and a guard placed over him. Sheriff Pollock, after taking precautions to gukrd tho jail in care of an attack, started for Harrison's farm, near Dimondale, to search for the girl's clothes Under the floor of tho cow stable on Mr. Harrison's farm the clothes were found wrapped in a bundle. To the people who read Canfield's confession, his admissions concerning the crime rerm incredible. Very nat­ urally the reader wouid picture him to bo a bloodthirsty-looking villain, with brutality stamped on every feature, but this Is not tho case. He is a mild-man­ nered, Inoffensive-looking man of slen­ der build, and rather below the average height. He says that be is 55 years old, and his appcaranc-' indicates this to be the truth. He has regular features, a full beard, mild, honest-looking blue eyes, and is as far from looking the villain he acknowledges himself to be aa can be Imagined. Tho Har­ rison family, for whom he drove a milk wagon dally to Lansing, refused to be­ lieve him guilty until his own confession forced them to admit 1L They state that be was a quiet, unobtrusive man who never had much to say and did his work well. He Is understood to be fairly well fixed, and has an Income from a small farm that he rents, preferring to drive a milk wagon for Mr. Harrison rather than conduct his own farm and do his own cooking and housework. The other convicts In tho penitentiary say they will knock him on the head when he gets to work.

' Here are some interesting facts about tho people who cofajXMie the [>opnlutwn of the world. , There are 3,0ti4 languages in the world, and its inhabitants profess more than 1,000 religious. The number of men is about equal to the number of women. Tlie average of life is about 33 years. One quarter die previous to the age of 17. To every 1,000 persons only one reaches 100 years of life. To every 100 only six reach the age of 65, and not more than one in 500 lives to 80 years of age. . Tlie numlter of marriages is in pro­ portion of 75 to every 1,000 individuals. Marriages are more frequent after equinoxes—that is, during the months of June and December. Those born in spring are generally of a more robust constitution than oth­ ers. Births are more frequent by night than by day; also deaths. There are on the earth 1.000.090,000 inhabitants: of these 113.033,033 die every year. 01.8*24 every day. 3,730 every hour and 60 every minute or 1 every second. The married are longer lived than the single, aud above all those who ob­ serve a solier and industrious cunduct. Tall men live longer than short ones. Women have more chances of life in their favor previous to 50 years of age than men have, but fewer afterward.

Buffalo Bill, bold one of his celebrated receptions, while the visitors interested themselves in exam­ ining tho tents of the Indians, the buck­ ing bronchos and all the paraphernalia of the Wild West. At last when every thing had been seen Mr. Blodger and his party turned to go. As they did so a disturbance sud­ denly took place near where they stood and two men could be seen struggling on the ground. The one soemed many years younger than the other and ho was evidently holding on to the older man with an embrace which he intended should te lasting. With true English instinct tho crowd'gathered around the two men to see the tight, but when they noticed the disparity in ago they mur­ mured: “Shame! Shame!" Still nobody tried to part thorn until a burly police­ man pushed his way through the crowd and endeavored to part the combatants. With the help of a bystander he raised the struggling men to their feet, but still the younger man held on and would not loosen his bold. “I will not lot him go,” he cried. The people thought him crazy. At first it seemed to bo only a drunken squabble, hut the onlookers soon noticed that each of the men were well dressed and then they know that something more serious than a momentary quarrel must te the cause of the disturbance. The younger man who cried out so loud­ ly waa flushed and hot; his cheeks and neck were red as fast flowing blood could make them; but the older man waa pallid with tho sickly hue of death. This was only tho commencement of tho trouble, however. The crowd had a delectable treat in store for them. Mrs. Delaro was about to retreat from tho spot when sho beard uud recognized a voice she knew welt She at once turned and raising her vail looked to­ ward where th-, burly policeman stood holding his two prisoners. There sho beheld a sight which made her heart leap for Joy. Without a word to her companions she ran towards tho police­ man and elbowing her way ^trough the crowd grasped tho young man's arm and cried out: “Percy Lovol! You alive? In Heav­ en’s name, what is tho matter?" Percy turned his eyes towards her and in the same moment gave the man he held a powerful twist which brought his face in contact with Mrs. Delaro'a, and shouted: “Do you recognize him?” Dt'dsho? Ah, this wm tho supreme moment of yean of anxiety and pent* «p hatred. Throwing her arms back with a tragic air, she exclaimed in joy­ ful accents: “Leon Velasques! My husband’s murderer! Thank Heaven, we meet at last!” If the words had teen magic they oould not have had a quicker or stronger Influence on the policeman. He waa in­ stantly awakened to the seriousness of the situation and in less time than it takes to write it he had manacled the accused man, and was bearing him off towards one of the offices, telling Mrs Delaro and Percy to follow him. Mr. Blodger, Armida, and Stephen BlodgeK, Jr., bad immediately followed Mrs. Delaro to ascertain what the ex­ traordinary movement on her part meant, and as Mrs. Delore followed the policeman, Armida drew near to her and excitedly asked: “Mother, dear, what doer all this mean?" “It means, my child, that we have run him to earth st last—oh, at last, at last!” “Whom do you mean?** “Hush child—the man who murdered jour dear, dear father many years ago. tn? w “LEON VALASQUKZl MT nUSBAND'S MUBDKBEBr have smothered Eugene's hopes for­ ever had he witnessed the deep genu­ ineness of her welcome. A moment later the policeman took bis prisoner Into the office, aud Mrs. Delaro and her party followed. During all tbe time tho prisoner did not utter a word. He was allowed to sit down, and when once ho raised his blanched, terror-stricken face, Armida’ Immedi­ ately recognized It, “Mother, that is Mr. Emerlok; there must te some mistake." “No mistake, my child. I know Leon Velasquez's face too well to ever for­ get it." Meantime, cabs had been ordered, and the prisoner, accompanied by two policemen, 'bntered one, while the others were occupied by the rest of the party, and they drove away from the im­ mense crowd, which had gathered to tho police station. Tho charge was entered, and Mrs. Delaro and Percy were in­ structed to appear next day and give their evidence against the prisoner. The entire party then returned to tho hotel together. Mr. Blodger, who was considerably mystified and wished to hear the whole story, decided to ac­ company tbe party, and of course be had to take bls heavy-weight son along with him. When they were once more seated In one of tho elegant suite of rooms which Mrs. Delaro occupied, Armida was tho first to speak— “Where is Mr. Bregy? Did be not say he would wait until we returned?" “Probably he felt too unwell to re­ main and went to his hotel," said her mother, but no sooner had she uttered the words than her maid came into the room crying and sobbing: "Oh. Mrs. Delaro, they have taken Mr. Bregy to the police station, and there has been terrible trouble here." '•Taken Mr. Bregy to the police sta­ tion—why what you mean?” asked Mrs. Delaro. As well as she could, in her excited state, the girl related how one of the porters, in passing the door which was slightly ajar, bad seen Mr. Bregy stand­ ing over Miss Armlda's writing desk trying to open it The man watched him until he had opened it and when Mr. Bregy had bis hat on ready to leave ho rusbod in and seized him. The porter naturally felt justified in placing him under arrest as he caught him with a bundle of Bank of England notes in his fingers. “Surely, "there must be some horrible mistake about it all," said Armida. “There is no mistake at all, miss," said tho garrulous girl, “for they have locked him up at tbe police station, and he will te taken before tbe magistrate in the morning." Still Armida could not believe it, and was determined to go and sec Eugene; but as she could not go alone, sho ac­ cepted Mr. BlodgcFs offer to accompany her. While she was away on this errand Percy Love! told Mrs Delaro his story, from the time ho had left New Y’ork for South America up to the encounter at the Wild West Show. "For the past week," he proceeded, “I have been trying to find you. 1 have sought you at most hotels and examined tho register at tbe American Exchange, but could not secure any trace of you. “This afternoon I determined on in­ dulging in a little recreation and at­ tended the Wild West Show. Just as I was coming away, the man whom we were each looking for (though until recently I had no positive grounds for supposing that Julius Emerick and Loon Velasquez were identical) crossed my path, and, as I had previously made up my mind that I would capture him if he ever came within sight of me, I at once gr.mpod him. The rest you know.” Then they fell to talking of the many ueleas efforts which they had made to sapture the villain. “Now," said Mrs. Delaro, “that I know that ho ia safe in ipend the closing days of my life in, rest and peace.

To you we owe every thing, and you are the only friend upon whom we can rely in future." “But where 1b our dear old friend, Mr. Wilcox?" asked Peroy, who listened with surprise to those words. “Do you not know?” said Mrs. Delaro, opening her eyes with astonishment. "No," replied Percy. "I stayed only a short time in New York, and the peo­ ple at tho house said he had accompa­ nied you." “Poor, dear old man,” said Mrs. Dela­ te, “he has long teen laid to rest in the quiet graveyard of his native town in New England."

That It Is unfamiliar to most newspaper readers Is shown by the nu&lx-r of in­ tkrticxl BKcnnN through rakrrlr. quiries that have been received ask­ ing for Information as to the weapon tractor, when the barrels cease to re­ that has done so much to keep the hos- volve and the shell is withdrawn and dropped', another cartridge ha zing been Ailes tn check. When tho capabilities ot the Hotch­ exploded at tho same time. As during kiss gun are known It Is not'to bo won­ every stoppage of the barrels the dered at that Its use has been found gun is supplied with a new cartridge, tyfa/ZvErr effective. While it can not be fired nearly so rapidly as tho Gatling mtn. Its prototype, .It has the compensating ad• • vantages of throwing explosive shells and of having a rang - and accuracy equal to field artillery. The Hotchkiss revolving cannon was adopted by the War Department several years a.o, aud its utility has been re postedly tested In field practice and yange tests.. In Its pppearancethe Hotch­ kiss gun resembles the Gatling, there be­ ing a wide variance, however. In the In­ terior mechanism It has live barrels, made of the finest oil-tempered case ateeh' mounted around a common axis, between two disks, on a central shaft The breech Is composed of a so’hl castiron breech-block, weighing nearly 400 pounds, purposely made heavy ao us to absorb the greater part of the recoil. Through a dbor ut the rear end the mechanism Is freely accessible. The gun weighs 1.017 pouns; and with a travers­ ing apparatus 1,1ft" pounds It* caliber Is 1.45 inches and the length of boro 4 foet and 2 inches. The Hotchkiss gun attains greater ac­ curacy than other revolving gins from the fact that it is stationary at the mo­ ment of discharge, while with the others their motion 1* continuous. This stop motion Is obtained by the shaping of the driving-worm which revolves the gun. It being so constructed llrat tbe inclined driving-thread only covers half its cir- arid the firing and extracting is also jM-rformed, a continuous but slow fin; is kept up. By supplying the gun In this manner with single cartridges, about thirty rounds a minute can !«• fired. Should rapid tiring bo required, the gun Is then supplied, not with single! car­ tridges, but with feed cases containing groups of ten cartridge!* each, and in this manner from sixty to eighty rounds a minute' can bo tired, with only three men to work the gun—one to alm it aryl work the* crank, one to place the feed (■use's Into the trough, and a third at the ammunition chest to till the cases an<l hand them to the charger. Its extreme effective range against troops is 3,000 yards. It is terribly destructive at any distance within 2.000 yards. The ammunition consists of a center­ fire metallic cartridge, throwing either an explosive shell or a case shot. The shells are XGG Inches long, of cast Iron, with a percussion fuse n> arly an inch long which explodes the.shell as soon as It strikes. They are constructed with three parallel walls united to a solid basu, so that when they explode they will be broken Into a large number of pieces. The percussion fuse is driven forward inside the shell ,when it strikes an object, so exploding. Should th? shell turn over In its flight and strike with tiie xbutU tho fuse would remain stationery, and would not explode. Tlie greatest effect is found when the point is mulo is witling. It throws an explosive shelf fitted with a percussion fuse. While an improvement in some re­ spects dim Hotchkiss gun is, after all. modeled on the plan of tlie Gatling. The genera! appearance of this Is familiar. The only time the Gatlings have boon In active service in th country waa during the Riel rebellion In the Canadian North­ west a few years ago, when the inventor blmself went with tho battery to super­ intend its operation. •*The Gatling gun can be fired at the rate of 1.200 shots a minute at any de­ gree of elevation or depression. It con­ sists of a number of very simple brooch­ loading rifle barrels grouped and revel­ ing around a shaft to which they are parallel, and surrounded by a stationary case. There barrels are loaded and fired while revolving, the empty cartridge shells being ejected in continuous suc­ cession. Each barrel is fixed only once in a revolution, but as many shots are delivered in that time as there are bar­ rels, so that the ten-barrel Gatling is fired ton times in one .revolution. The working of the gun is simple. One ma* places a circular feed-case full of cart­ ridges Into a hopper at the top of the gun, while another man turns a crank by which tho gun is revolved. Feed cares may bo substituted without inter­ rupting the revolution. In the casing behind tho barrel is a metal carrier block attached to the shaft, with ten grooves cutin Its face, which guide the cartridges from the hopper to the barrels. In the shaft behind the carrier block is another cylinder called tho lock cylinder, in which slide ton long breech-plugs, which push tho cartridges into tho barrels, ex­ plode them by a firing-pin running through tho breech-plugs, and then ex­ tract the empty shells as they are drawn back. This motion backward and for­ ward is produced as the shaft is revdved by tho breech-plugs working against a stationary cam. Inspcqto-Goneral Breckenridge in his annual report says that -It is so injuri­ ous to an army to know that Its arms are obsolete and Inferior that the demand for something better than wo have now is very earnest. Our citizens, especially the militia, are not satisfic'd, knowing they must pay with their lives for any lack of preparation when the next war comes." The British havo their Lee re­ peating rifles; the French, their Label; the Austrians, their Mannllehcr: In short, nearly ail tho European nations, great and small, have adopted magazine guns, and many of them have smokeless powders giving a high initial velocity THK THREE-WALLKD FIIKt.t- and a very long range. Probably no harm Ims thus far resulted from the fail­ ure to supply our army with a weapon of this character; but this Is duo to the fortunate continuation of pen o. Noone can question that It Is now high time to furnish at least the regular army and portions of the militia with tho modern weapons. Probably practical trials by the present board will substantially show what sort of rifle Is to be issued to our troops. ______________________ Tho musical art of a people who represent ono-tifth of the earth’s pop­ ulation ought to be studied; if not for the sake of n-stbetic pleasure, at least in the interest of scientific knowledge. Yet there is scarcely a department in the history or philosophy of music con­ cerning which the information to bo found in the books is so unitatisfactory Qs that of Chinese music. Even a his­ torian of the thoroughness and pro­ fundity of Ambros, after devoting many pages to an attempt to elucidate the Chinese theory, aetrna willing to believe the first traveler who sets down tbe modern practice of tlie art as noth­ ing bat crude, barbaric, unregulated noise. Crude, barbaric and noiay Chinese music certainly is, but not un-, regulated. Even the little music which can l>e heard on any holiday in tho Chinese quarters in Now York will serve to disclose to a discriminating ear that it is nothing if not methodical. Tbe difficulty on the part of the his­ torians has been that they have never come in contact with the Chinese, and therefore have had to depend on the descriptions of travelers and misaionc.ries touching the practical aide of tlie art. Correctly to apprehend music, however, requires social qualifications of education and natural gifts, and these have been possessed by ao small a minority of tho-e who have written about China that they are scarcely worth enumerating.—II. E. Krehbiel, in Century. reference to the manner of holding cards spread oj>en like a fau, which,is common to all nations. “The shape and >.ize of the Chinese card are peculiar. They are printed in block on a ihin cardlmard. The backs are sometimes bright crimson, aud someiim&a black or yellow, and they are the shape and size of a finger. Some of them aro little more than half an inch broad by three inches long, and others are ofio inch wide by bj long. Tbe pipe and court cards ore always printed in black on a white background, and on the face .of some of them are atamned Chinese characters printed in red. In wme packs the cards have animals, such ns horses and doer, represented upon them; while in others characters which may mean the names only of the ani­ mals are written above the pips. Tho cards are rounded at tho top, sod at the upper end a small portion is left blank, as if to hold them conveniently and allow of their being spread or ‘fanned’ out, showing the whole of tho pictured surface, tho blank space be­ ing held under the thumb and fingers.

Hannibal Hamlin is the only living ex-Vice President of the United Statos, and, to be' in his eighty-second year, ho is about the liveliest old man in the country. His tall form is almost as erect as ever, and he walks with a free aud swinging stride. When he goes out on the street ho at once attracts the attention of strangers. His dress is a relic ot the past. He is almost invariably attired in tbe old-fashioned black swallow-tail cost, wears a regu­ lation silk hat and a stock and dickey. He has no time for new-fangled no­ tions in dress. But, although his dis­ position is still lively, and he loves dancing, he is said to fiste music. He rarely, if ever, enters a church until the opening musical exorcises are .over. In Maine, where he has boon a familjar political ffgure for over half a century, there is a largo stock of good stories about him. One among many will serve as an illustration. A caucus wa# called at Hampden in his early days, but was only responded to by two men. One was young Hamlin him­ self, the other a man of enormous pro­ portions. Tho young lawyer had a set of resolutions to propose, but there waa neither Chairman, Secretary, nor meet; ing. Hamlin, however, was equal to HAXIflUAL n*MLW. TVe Jtyields We know that at the wedding fes­ tivities of Alexander the Great with Statira, the daughter of Darius, some of the most famous kithnrists, as Kuthriuos of Methymna. Athcuodores of Tejos, and others, had to play. It is also known that some of the best zither players of those days, like Anobeos, received* a magnificent re­ muneration for public appearance—an Attic talent ^about five hundred dol­ lars)—being nothing unusually high for the performance. Under the Roman Emperors, too, the kithara, often changed and improved, flour­ ished as a fashionable instrument, and even as late as 1150 after Christ, the Greek Emperor Manuel esteemed the famous kitharist, Samotheros Logothe­ ta very highly because of his art.

It Is supposed that the assassins mis­ took Goodfellow fora man name I Woods, whom they knew to have money. The case was taken in hand by competent officers and Devine was traced and cap­ tured. All through the trial he protested hia Innocence, and oven on the scaffold, with the clergyman standing at his side, ho declared that he did not commit the deed. He was hanged, however, and nothing more was said of the case until his accomplice, named Williams, was triced to the State prison at Stillwater, Minn , where he had been sentenced to a term of- twenty-five years for another crime. Before pro-codings could be in­ stituted against him Williams died in that prison, but ore his death called a priest to bls beside and requested him to write to Devine's aged mother, who lived at Alton, and inform her that her boy was Innocent of the crime for which he died. This was published, aud yet tho community generally was loath to be­ lieve that the boy—he was about34 years of age—was Judicially murdered. Now comes another chapter In this strange story. Nellie Brown, whose tes­ timonycost Devine his life, has since that tiu|e become an abandoned creature, and Is now confined in our city prison almost n maniac from the use ef opium and liquor. In her ravings she talks of tho Devine case, which Is constantly prey­ ing on her mind. Some time ago sho told a companion that she perjured her­ self as a witness at that remarkable, trial, and that this had driven her to drink. She was a child- at tho time of tho murder, and keeps crying: “They made me testify! I had to do it!" Thus it appears that this man suffered and left his aged mother without support In the world for a crime which he did not commit WATER ENDS THE CAREER OF EIGHTEEN MINERS. AMERICAN SA'LORS IMPRISONED IN RUSSIAN MINES. WEEK. GtV* [Hazleton. Pa. di*patch.] Eighteen men In watery graves mark the result of tho most awful mine horror that has over occurred In this region. Jcansville, tho mining villagb of J. C. Hayden «fc fo... two miles across tbe .mountains from this place. Is the scene of tho disaster which has resulted In such loss of life and brought desolation and anguish to so many homes. Tho lost are: Lawrence Reed, married, eight chil­ dren.

At 11 o’clock this morning, while Charles Boyle and Patrick Coll, of Leviston, were engaged In drilling a hole in their chamber In tho lower lift of No. 1 slope, they broke Into old No. 8 slope, that has been Idle for live years and hod been flooded to tho mouth with woter. William Brlslln. a driver, was driving at the bottom ot the slope when ho felt the wind coming and cried out: “Boys, for God’s sake, run for your lives or wo will all be drowned.” In a moment tho force of water camo and Brlslln Larcly escaped with his life. Besides him six others—Henry Gibbon, John Neems, John lioylo, Charles Boyle, William Coyle, doortender, and Patrick Coll—were saved. The waler rose rap­ idly. and before any attempt could be made to rescue the rest of the workmen the slope, which is <124 feet deep, waa filled to the mouth, and the eighteen men were buried In. watery graves. Tho news of the disaster- created the wildest excitement, and tlie mouth ot tho slope was soon thronged with peo­ ple, frantic in their efforts to obtain in­ formation of tho Inmates of the mine. When all tho men who escaped reached tho surface, and it was known /rho the lost were, the excitement increased, and In less than half an hour hundreds of men, women, and children gathered around tho slope, and tho terrible scenes of anguish that ensued cannot be deplet­ ed. Wives Imploring piteously of the miners standing by. who knew only too well tho fatal result, to save their hus­ bands from tlie terrors of a watery grave; little children crying for the papa who would never return; relatives aud friends writing their hands In sorrow and dlstressVaud appealing to a merciful providence to save all. when within each breast was llhe certain fooling that their prayers would bo unanswered. A pump was got in working order in a short time, and every stroke was watched anxiously by tho onlookers, who seemed to count >ho throbs of tho mighty en­ gine as It forced tho gallons of black and sulphurous water from «the mouths of the huge column pipes at the entrance of the slope A large duplex Cameron pump was also at work by 7 p. m., and every minute it takes 1,500 gallons from the slope where tho men are en­ tombed. Hayden «t Co. will pump tho watercut as rapidly as machinery placed In position can do the work. How long it will take is a question, since no defi­ nite idea of the volume of water can bo ascertained. Mr. Brlslln, one of the escaped miners at the bottom of tbe slope, said: “I was waiting at the bottom of the slope for a trip to come out Suddenly I heard a loud noise' and I thought it was the trip. Then a fearful blast of wind came and knocked mo down the gangway. I cried out to James Griffiths. Then the wind blew his light out as suddenly as it did mine. I tried to run for tho slope, but stumbled and fell. Thon John lioylo and John Neems camo running out Neems' lamp was burning aud through the aid of Neems* light wo got to tho slope. The water came pourlug after us as we ran. We got to tho slope then the light went out We clambered up as fast as wo could, and the water came rushing after us, rising very quickly. In five minutes the water rose 208 yards to tho mouth of the slope, tho pitch of which Is 83 degrees." Tho civil engineer in charge of the mines was a man from Pottsville, LeFcvro Womelsdorf. Many theories are advaaced as to the cause of the disaster. Some chargo It to neglect to notify the workmen of the dangerous woxlmity of tho water. Thu slopo where the acci­ dent occurred Is a new slope which was sunk from the bottom of a worked-out slope. The latter has been flooded for at least sixteen months, and only a few* of the old miners knew of the presence of that great body of water, and many a time had the remark been made that if the lower gangway workings were driven up too near a dreadful accident would be the result None of the workmen had any Idea that tho workings were driven as near to the water as they were. | B<Mtoa dispatch.] One of the greatest outrages ever In­ flicted' upon American citizens by Um decree of a foreign power has been the imprisonment of tour New England sail­ ors—one of them boro in Boston—for tvo years and ten months in a Siberian coal' mine.

Lansxso, Feb. 2. tory one In legislative circles. When the Legislature convened al »:15 on Wednesday evening after the long ad­ journment, the Senate was destitute of a quorum, only ten members answering to roll call Tho number wa« Increased to fourteen on Thursday, but still three leas than a quorum, and not untH Friday afternoon did It succeed in hav­ ing a sufficient number to proceed with the regular business. The House bad a bare quorum on Wednesday earn­ ing, and continued through tho week without a sufficient num­ ber to give any measure immediate effect Tbe. proceedings were enlivened on Wednesday by tbe introduction of some very startling railroad legislation by Representative Jackson, of Wayne, who presented bills repealing the char­ ters of the old Grand River Valley Road, operated by tire Michigan Central, and the Eric and Kalamazoo Railroad, oper­ ated by tho Lake Shore and Michigan Southern, and followed this up by a Joint resolution to submit to a vote of the — people next spring a proposed amend­ ment to the Constitution which will en­ able the State to' buy railroads outright under certain conditions. ‘ All this was followed by a bill an­ nouncing that under provisions of act 42, session laws of 1846, the State e’ects to purchase from the Michigan Cent:al Company its railroad, and all It* proper­ ty and effects. The bill makes the Gov­ ernor the purchasing agent, and provides that in case the company and tho State cannot agree upon the market value of the stocks of the company tho Supreme Court shall fix the valuation, and within two years thereafter the State Treasurer shall pay the company the amount luo It The bill conflicts with the constitution as the lattef stands al present, and therefore will not be pushed until tho proposed amendment is voted upon in the spring. The real Intent of tbe bill is to force the Michigan Central people to give up the special privileges and im­ munities they enjoy under their charter, and If this can be accomplished no mtIous effort will be made to force tho State into the railroad-buying business. • This was followed by the introduction of a bill by Richardson, of Ottawa, to amend the charter of the Michigan Cen­ tral Railroad Company. . It amends section 33, which. provides the rate of taxation to be paid by said company, by I.ringing the company under the general railroad tax law.

With the approval of the board of corrections, Iteprtx-nlaUve Raymond has introdmed a bill authorizing the justices of the jieacei to Impose the dread sentence of hard labor upon prisoners sent to the: county jails. Raymond’s bill<b born of a painful experience that- Lcnaver county has parsed through. On the■ strength of an understanding withi the county supervisors the city of Adrian passed an ordinance directing ite justices to sentence vags caught in­ side the city to hard work in tbe county Jail. The supervisors went ahead and erected a building where the gentlemen of the highway were to do honorable service for the state, and then net down and waited for tberush. But the trampb they looked for never came. The vags simply avoided Adrian as though it were a Diague spot and Infested the rural portions of the county worse than ever. Mr. Raymond, therefore, logically decided that if that sort of a scheme would rid the city of tramps a general law of the samfc nature would drive them out of the state altogether. Secretary Storrs, of the board of corrections and charities, says that he regards the measure as one of the must important before the legislature. He tai I eves that by putting in simple and inex­ pensive plants for breaking atone, basket making and similar industries it will prove a very profitable thing for the counties, and prisoners will be relieved from the sometimes greatly desired curse of idleness. The bill dues not apply to vags alone, but In­ cludes ail sorts and conditions of of­ fenders sent to the county jails. Within the past few years the state of Michigan lias become over-run with a great artny of tramps, and The News believes that it will be a grand day for Michigan when the measure Is made a law, as it certainly will be. Tramps have as great a dislike for work as they have for water, and if such a law were ln effect and rigidly enforced, they would speedily disap­ pear from our fair state, which is now one of their choicest pastures.

"MKE ‘•’Till not my will that evil be immor­ tal.” It is will for us that, while on this earth every thing good and beautievil and wrong arc also but a question of time, and have their end. “All things ciimc to him who will wait.” Leon Velasquez's power of evil had spread itself over a long and busy life­ time—bad held full sway from the day he bad entered his teens until his hair wm turning gray. With the exception honest merchant, his active mind had always been bent on evil. He had caused the innocent to suffer for the guilty; had robbed men of the bard•arnod accumulations of years, and women of their virtual had stained his hands iu blood until murder came m natural to him m the killing of a bul­ lock to a butcher, he had drawn better naturou down to evil and made crime the study of his life. But tho day of retribution wm fret closing in upon hJm- The murder of Mario Delaro wm soon to be avenged, and before long he wquld realize the awfjil justice of tbe bld Mosaic l»w-“A life' for a life." And yot how poor a recompense, fobbed of her life happinou when -1* wm just beginning to assert itself, all that the victim’s widow received in re­ turn wMthe knowledge that retribution had finally overtaken the one who bad robbed ber of her IreMure. And, compared to ValMqucx, what a fearful price had she paid to secure re­ venge. Tbo best part of her life had been spent: wMtod, in fact, in running to earth a monstrosity who had at lot fallen into her h^uds through sheer ac­ cident (as the greater part of tho world would say), though there are those who would see In such an accident the won­ derful machination of an unrelenting Baler, who hu said: “Vengeance is mine." Never until now had Velasquez re­ flected on the possible results of the re­ pulsive acta of his life. His immunity from discovery had only tended to harden his soul and he had over been for wealth—which when acquired had never brought him any genuine pleMure. He had nover onoe stopped to think of tho price his victims paid to satisfy his own insatiate desires. He had been absorbed In self and had lived a life in which none others ahafed a part But now that the hellish conceits of bis debased mind could only spend themselves on four prison walls, he wm forced to think. Leon Velasquez, running riot m one of the most active of the devil's emmisanries, bad never paused to think of tbe exactness with which God’s mills grind ail, bad never thought it worth his while to consider that those who es­ cape the mills the longest ace in the end ground more quickly and relent­ lessly. He wm in the mills now and tiie great stones were beginning to re­ volve; so closely, so surely increasing the speed ot their revolutions every mo­ ment, never to cease grinding until the gristshouid be flneM the finest powder. Hie nights grew restless, sleep al­ most forsook him. and the little snatches of napping which he did sometimes secure were only fitful slumbers disturbed by horrible dreams which brought to his miud in turn, like a moving panorama, the scenes of his devilish acts. Bold m ho bad been through life, he now shuddered under the shadow of the gallows, and so fear­ ful wm tbe mental torture that at times he wished that the end might be speedy. When tbe bolts shot into their sock­ et* across his prison door all hope fled, and ho knew full well that he would, after all these yearn of liberty, meet the penalty of his greatest crime. From the hour of his arrest he had been moody, and entirely ceased to speak to those who approached him. He neither ex­ pressed a hope of escape nor murmured at his fate. Some Imagined rfat Che terrible visions of a just punishment were perhaps the cause of his silence, though others avowed that he wm only meditating a bold and final plunge for PERCY FHOFFEHF.!* It required but a short space of time to perfect tbe arrangement* for Velasques’s removal to California soil, where the law required that he should take his trial for the crime of murder.

So marked did this move­ ment of the ram become that Patey atopped and waited for tbe ram to come up, intending to scratch the ani­ mal’s head. But when about ten feet away, the ram lowered hi* hoed, backed up some four feet and then charged. Whan his head came into contact with Fatay's legs, the latter sat down. This act wa* performed so violently that Patsy thought his apine had been forced up through the back of hi* neck. Patsy wm still Mated when the ram charged a second time, but as n meas­ ure of safety he grasped the ram by the horn* and held on. Twaa hard work, but Pat*y held on until by hi* crie* ha attracted the attention ot Mike Welch, the owner of the animat “Lave go o’ that ram.-” shouted Mike, running up. “K it tryin' to stale him ye are?’ “Divil a stale thin,” replied Patay;“I was just seein* bad he any strength in bis neck. Come down and hoult him a minute. Mike. Faix, he's stronger nor a bolt” "I* that so?" replied Mike, jumping over the wall, "Gi* me a hoult of him. till I see i* he that strong.” Patay tranaferred hi* hold of the ram's horn* to Mike, and then climbed ox. tbe wall to watch the fun. Five minutes went lw. Patsy sat on the wall and uttered such comforting re­ marks as: better not lave go yev, Mike; Glancing over hi* ahoulder Mike saw tho rum charging across the lot in his rear. Little Mickey being fleet’ of foot eseaped, but Mike, owing to his ex­ hausted condition, could not run fast Just before ho reached the fence the ram caught up with him. and a- a result he wa* knocked on hi* lace in the mod. Before ho could regain his feet the ram had loosened hi* skin in several jiIscoh below tho knee nml seriously in­ terfered iFith his ribs. Hence the remark made by Mike in regard to pitch fork* at the begin­ ning of thia *tory, and hence tho recent ri»e in sticking planter in Cootfcy Island. —.Vew York Suu. . Dr. C. C. Abbott, in “Outings at Odd Time*," tell* a tragic talo of an ad­ venture which once befell an old lady, “long, long ago.” The spot where she lived wa* umoet a wiiderne**, and wa* beset with tbe perils of a new and scantily settled land.

With a light heart she gathered and gathered, until at length au ominous shrieking fell upon her ears, z “Could it be another bear?" thought she, and turned her face homeward. Her big basket was not quite full, and there were such loads of fruit within easy reach! This was tantalizing, but all ber doubt vanished with the second shriller, more unearthly scream. The path wm no longer plain, nor wm sbe sure-footed. As she pitched recklessly forward, the berries were bounced by handfuls from her basket, and finally, in despair, she threw aside the basket itself. And *till sounded through the swamp tbe terrible screeching of that angry tage through tbe thickly-set trees, but not ao plainly the tortuous path.

Be economical with your friendship. The less you say, the less you have to take back. There arc so many wise people who have no wisdom. Those who are not led by reason are driven by want.

The man who always buys on tick is the man you have to watch. The greatest men of a town may al­ ways be found In Its cemeteries. Good people make a mistake when they dress up Sin as beautiful.

TGNITY Iles in the sleeve, is a very old saying, and no doubt took Its rise In thuOrient,where tho sleeves are so long and flowing that they almost seem to make up the whole garment. These capacious sleeves made their through Greece and Rome, where their shape and contour may be traced in the habiliments of the priesthood. In still later ages the i-apariou* sleeve— always the symbol of office and dig­ nity—was , appro­ priated by the jus­ tices of the high courts, and, while the nobility and royalty made use of the tight-fitting sleeve, there was, for digni­ ty's aake, a vast double sleeve reaching almost to tho ground, richly embroidered on the outside aud lined with gay colored stuff on the inner. It was quite natural, when dignity made use of the long, flowing sleeves, that vanity and conceit should have adopted the tight-fitting ones; fur in its light and playful moods human nature would not wish to bo hampered by dress. Tho fashions of to-day acknowledge the sleeve as one of the most Important factors In tho adornment of the female form, and the amount of thought be­ stowed upon it is something astonishing. At times the fancy of the artist appears, as in tho initial Illustration, to run to eccentricity; at others; as in the third illustration, to seek to conceal lack of roundness In figure or to add breadth to tbe shoulders by cascad<s. puffs and boulllonnee of gauzy material*. I see altogether charming styles of sleeves at every turn, especially at din­ ners, evening receptions, and at tho the­ ater and oftera. In fact, the artistic dressmakers aire continually rummaging in costume books for mediaeval, old En­ glish and old French sleeve effects. At a dinner party I saw bouffant s’eeves of white faille, with strips of old rose velvet laid lengthwise upon them, caught in at the elbow with bows and disappearing nt the wrist under lace cuffs, below which there was still another and smaller lace cuff. At a small dance, one young lady's yellow cropo dress had large boulllonnee puffs on the shoulders, falling about half-way down tbe forearm. A charm­ ing theater dress in light yellow pekln. with jacket and sleeves of orange-yellow pekln and lower part of the skirt also of . the darker shade, had a very pretty style MAJOR GEXKRAl.

The flutter of the gay red-and white swallow-tailed guidons and the flash of the swords and yellow capes of the troopers as they wheeled into Pine street in double columns of companle«,evcry horse keeping alignment and proper distance, would have called forth thundering applause on an occa­ sion less solemn. But the crowd never for an Instant forgot the occasion that had" caused It to gather. The grim can­ non. with their large, line horses and their perfectly equipped artillerymen, excited scarcely less Interest than the cavalry. The recent Indian troubles In the Northwest had sharpened public iulercst, and the troops who had seen ser­ vice shone resplendent In the eyes of the spectators. The bugle corps of the Seventh Cav­ alry led the procession, being preceded by a platoon of police, who cleared the way. General Merritt, grand marshal of the procession, and bls aides, some twenty officers of the regular army, rode solemn words of th’1 young priest., at tbe head of Custer's cavalry.

The second lllustratfou will serve to give you a very correct idea of the grace and elegance of aonie of the skating costumes. This beautiful jacket Is of gray velvet, very tastefully trimmed with swausdown, and strikingly set off by broad revers of very pale yellow and Indigo striped .-urali The trim and | natty turban is of sable fur, with a clus­ ter of black cock's feathers sot coquet• tlshly fn front • With the jacket Is worn , a plain black velvct-sklrt with sable borj der, which serves admirably to bring out the richness of tbe gray velvet jacket I The jacket is tightly closed with hooks I and eyes, and fastened at tbe tbroat with | a handsome old-silver ornament of quaint J design. To return to indoor dresses. I see some extremely pretty combinations In two shades of cloth. For Instance, a 1 pearl-gray dress, for evwnlng reception, with sleeves of white doth ornamented with gold pastils, and also a broad band of the white cloth enclrcling-ahe skirt at | a short distance from Um bottom. Thu 1 dress is cut round at tho ueqk and the decolleteagc 1* encircled with a double . _ ., . . ■ , . J ruffle of white crepe do chine, which A.

The sleeves are of jibe faille with velvet reaching ~to the bend of the arm, but quite open on the ' outside. At tbe bock the Jacket opens | V-shaped upon the pleated faille, as the I velvet skirt does in front. As young people never tire of wearing pale pink, they'll find much-to admire In tho style and make-up <rf the beautiful interior costume reprosontoJ by my third illustration. This particular gown Is made up in pale-pink pekln with a chiffoneod Cascade of pinkish-whlto gauze, serving as collarette and also covering tho upper parts of the sleeves. It would be difficult to imagine anything more becoming for a young miss than this costume. I need hardly add that the same dress would look equally well made up in any of the delicate shades of yellow, green or in while. . I notice that ladles who pride themsolves upon the stylo and elegance of their 5 o'clock teas make a point to push their daughters forward on these occas­ ions. In fact, this becomes almost pain­ fully evident at certain houses, for you'll find the mother attired in a plain cloth dress while the daughter bursts upon your field of vision either In some ilcb // costume of mcdiieval quaintness, or else drawn all eyes upon her by the exquisite 'fit and finish of a soft silk of a hue so tender that, it melts Into her very color­ ing and she becomes— gown and figureone single artistic dash of tone. The 5 o’clock tea becomes year by year wore than over a thing of ceremony and di fa­ culties. The simplicity of the old kettle drum or ordinary “tea fight," as tho gen­ tlemen are pleased to term them,, has long since departed. And now comes tho news that the Russian samovar has been displaced by the Dutch tea-kettle in I brass, nor may the English teapot figure upon the table, either. As the lady of the house would be In despair If she couldn't attract a sufficient number of the male sex to relieve tho monotony of the oc­ casion, she must make special provision for those fastidious club men who de­ spise sweets, chocolhte and tea. Hence, dainty sandwiches, hot bouillon and petty glasses of apple brandy must await their coming, and in the dressing-room must bo placed hero and there boxes of dainty Egyptian and Turkish cigarettes —domestic strictly ruled out. But tbe young married woman whose thoughts are fixed only on her own fair person may, provided she sets forth refreshments varied and dainty enough to please those who flock to her after-, noon leas, array herself In a costume of any degree of loveliness that will best servo to accentuate her stylo of beauty. For Instance, In the last Illustration you see set forth one of those refined toilets which transform a woman of tall and slender figure Into a veritable daughter of the gods. As you gaze upon her you wonder how one hundred and thirty-five pounds of flesh and blood may be made to look so ethereal and im­ ponderable. This costume Is in silvergray peau do sole, trimmed with white feathers and white lace, as shown In the illustration. Its exquisite delicacy and softness may neither be imagined nor described, and still In detail It Is not In­ tricate nor yet elaborate in garniture.

While there has been a good deal of wet weather throughout the State there havo been but few washing rain*, and tho roots have been but little exposed. In some sections there has been some spewing owing to the recant heavy freeze, but as k general thing the earth was tolerably dry when the mercury fell to zero and the bad effects of tho freeze were con­ fined to a few sections, and In none was it .*0 disastrous as was tho cold weather of a later period last year. Columbus, Ohio: Tho Ohio Agricultu­ ral Bureau has Issued no bulletin of crops since December. That bulletin showed as to wheat that the acreage sown last fall, as compared with the acreage of the year before stood 100 per cent. As to the condition of the soli st Qiu time ot seeding, fifty-four counties ■eport it good, twenty-four counties 'air, and but ten counties bad. Topeka, Kan.: Reports received at the Agricultural Department from ninety >f tbe 10<l counties In the State, zring encouraging news regarding the wheat outlook, lu four-fifths of the counties reporting the crop is in fine condition, better than ever reported be­ fore In tho history of the State.

The acreage is very large. Lincoln, Neb.: But very little winter wheat is raised in Nebraska.

Such seremonies of a society that keeps up large appearances on small means are orobably not suspected in the United states, but they exist all the same, and kt Newport, too. The story is told of a Philadelphia society personage who leld fo.lh in great* state at Newport antil she married her daughter to an Englishman with a name as aristocrat­ ically hyphenated as her own. that she jave a garden party on this hiring prinriple with almost perfect eclat. She rented a furnished cottage with ample lawn space. The day before the festival the made a tour of the Newport shops. From one she ordered Oriental rugs to be sent her on approval. From another zhe had a large marquee dispatched to be set up so that she might see how she liked a tent oh her terrace. And ih this way she converted her lawns into k picnic ground at not even theexpense >f renting the accessories. There was k rather embarrassing interruption to ;he fete in the shape of a personal de­ naud on the part of the unsymj athetio -ug-vender for his money or the return >f the goods, but tho hostess overawed lim before he could bring things to a terions climax, and the Japanese lau;erns glowed upon a scene of successful deemosynary splendor after a day of neipenaive display.

CANINE TOILERS. In Belgium the country people are mostly poor; even those who think themselves “well off" are not what ue should call sd. Borne of them h«-ve small farms just out-ide the city walls, and raise vegetable i for the matketo. They seldom can afford a horse, > <r they keep a number of large, stio g dogs—sometimes as many as five 01 six—which they harness to their mar­ ket carts. If you could see these dog teams tugging along, you would understand what it means when people say they HOW FROM MARKET. have to “work like a dog." About al) these farmers have to eat in a tori of dark-colored, coarse bread: and the same kind of bread is fed to the horses.

Defective observa­ tion leads tho best philosophy astray, and allows virtue to grope in vain for its reward. The good man who avoids evil only because he does not see its allure­ ments, will also miss a groat deal which is both desirable and permissible in this world. With ao much by way of preface It may be safe to say that the young man who will now be introduced had led an exemplary life without finding any sat­ isfaction in IL He had taken for his guiding rule the advioe of Schiller that happiness is to be found in t'he dally per­ formance of a task of routine. It will bo remembered that the name eminent gentleman advised writing with one’s feet in a tub of ice water, but most of us do not like IL There is, however, a great deal of value in the routine idea, but the trouble with it in practice is that many people do not know what to occupy themselves with after the daily taak is done. William Russell wa* one of these. He had held a clerkship for eight years, on a slowly-increasing salary, and had been temperate, frugal, and industrious. He had as much interest in his work a* if he.had been a car-horse; but ho would rather hnve been employed than idle. Thinking he regarded as an unsafe oc­ cupation for a man who knew how to analyse the foots of existence, as he did. That was tbe trouble: he knew how to analyse them but he didn't know the foots. He hod long ago given up ambi­ tion, friendship, love, and many other sweet and profitable things because be regarded them a* delusions! Then came a day when he began to regard tho consolation* of hi* daily taak of routine as delusions also. He was as good a sample of the discouraged young York. Ho bad hitherto maintained a certain contentment bolstered up by prejudice in favor of hi* own philosophy; and whes this thin support gave way there was no mending iL About this time Russell lost his clerkship natually enough, perhaps, for a man in that condition of mind ia not a valuable em­ ploye.

At an esrly hour the people began to assemble in West Seventy-first street op­ posite the residence of General Sherman. From almost every house along the street the American flag floated, the greater number being in deep mourning. There were few visitors. Only the most,intimate friends and a few old soldiers were ad­ mitted, and the latter were obliged to show ccrtlflcaftiB that they had served in tbe army. Bov. Thomas Sherman, whoso arrival has'been so anxiously awaited, arrived. Hff was welcomed- home, not by bls be­ loved father, but by his brother, P. T. Sherman, and his maters, Mrs. Thackers and Miss Rachel Sherman. He did not go then to view his father's remains, but after a short, sad tallr with his brother and sisters. retired for tbe ulgbt to pass the hours till morning in restless steep. During the morning a large floral shield wa* received at tbe house from tho West Point cadets. Tho shield was six feet in height and four feet broad. It was made of white and blue immortelles and boro the inscription, “William Te­ cumseh Sherman, from his West Point boys* class of 184a” ’ A short Catholic service was performed about the casket of General Sherman. To this none were admitted but tho members of tho family and near rela­ tives. The services were very simple and consisted of prayer and staging. After these services the casket was closed. President Harrison did not look upon tbe remains of tho General. The family sent an Invitation to him, but tho.President kindly replied that ho pre­ ferred to keep with him tho remem­ brances of the General while ffHve. ,7’ho caisson, draped in black and drawn by four white horses, was drawn up In front of the Sherman house. Tho horses were mounted by regulars, and an array officer was In charge. At ihe caisson was an orderly leading the black charger which bore the military trap­ pings of the General. A black velvet covering almost hid the horse from view. But the boots and saddle were plainly conspicuous. Tho services over, the iirst move toward the formation of tho proces­ sion was began. A squad of tho Sixth Cavalry formed to the left of-tho house in tho middle of the street The caisson came up In front of tho house. Generals Howard, Slocum, Johnston, and other military dignitaries, formed In two linos on tho walk and made a passage-way to tho caisson. As tho pallbearers left tho house, an army band out toward Central Park began playing a funeral marck Tho casket of the General was borne slowly to tho funeral carriage amid uncovered heads. The procession began to move down Eighth avenue, but the progress was very alow. On tho side streets wer%hu ad reds of carriages waiting for a place In the Immense procession. The order of the column, following the relatives snd fam­ ily. was as follows. President and Vice Bieztdent of th* United Stat**.Member* at th* CablnaL Joseph H.

It was this year that the brothers Mont­ golfier In France, by a number of mi­ nor experiments, determined that a heat of lt-0 degrees rareti<*d air, and made It occupy twice its original bulk, or that this degree of heat diminished tbe weight of the air by one half. Joseph Montgolfier’s first balloon was a paralkdoplp<-d In very Uiin taffeta containing . lew than seventy-eight cubic Inches of air. He made It rise to tlie celling of bis apartment in Avignon In November, Their next balloon contained Sixty live cpblc feet, and made, an aseqm in open air, and gave the first public exhibltlqn J util: 5, 1783. The next balloon was 70 feet high arid 4ft fret in diameter, with a capacity for flt>.000 cubic feet They traveled .10,000 feet and were' up twenty-live minutes The balloon experiments caused the wildest excitement, and the news spread rapidly over Europe.

TVe Shields that the Sahara contains no green thing; but this Is now known to be a mistake, for iti most parts tropical plants and Brasses find a feeble nourishment here and there, while In many districts, after a rain—a rare phenomenon, by the way— grass springs up as luxuriantly as on tome of our Western plains. The extent of the Sahara can hardly be realized by one who has not had his attention expressly called to its geo­ graphical limit*. From cast to west Its length is about 3.000 miles: from north toaoftth over 1,000, comprising a terri­ tory-estimated al 2,300,000 square miles, thus equaling In size nearly the whole of Europe and exceeding /he orca of the United States. Nor Is It destitute of population, for though no census has over been made of Its wandering tribes, estimates place the population of the Sahara at 2,300,000, consisting of Moors, Arabs and negroes, wandering to and fro among its sandy hills. Tho great desert presents no morn picturesque spectacle than one of these wild bor otneu. In gorgeous though dirty trappings, and accoutered with his savage and Inef­ fective arms. Ferocious as fh-y look, these bands of homeless wanderers are dangerous only when they are tho stronger party. Then they do not hesi­ tate a moment to plunder and slay: but whenever they are In tho minority they display a humility which Is beautifully touching; they will kiss the hem of tho traveler’s garments, toll him th -y arc his slaves and beg hls-cottmands. A very common mistake concerning the Sahara is with regard to the oases. It is supposed that these arc few and far between, but this Is a mistake, for then.* are several hundreds: so many. In fact, that one-third the surface of'this mighty desert Is supposed to consist of more or less fertile Jand. But It is not fertile by nature.' though rendered so by cultiva­ tion, for wherever there ia a spring vege­ tation appears, and by care on the part of the inhabitants to prevent encroach­ ments of the sand tbe limits of the arabiu laud arc greatly extended. Suppose, for Instance, a garden should be wanted. The Arab scodps out the sand frym a apace, necessarily limited, to a depth five to fifteen feet below the surrounding •urfa:e. There he comes to moist ground, and in It plants his vegetables, •etting out palms on the wall surround­ ing tire cellar garden. It Is a slow and ccntly way of cultivating tho ground, but Il Is successful, and any tropical plants and vegetables may be ra sod In the neighborhood of a spring.

Had nearly all my bones broken two or three times.” “Memory good?” “No." “Sleep well?" “No." “How's yonr appetite?" “Very poor.” Several other important questions were answered after the same candid fashion, and the ageut will have to write him that there is no life insur­ ance for so truthful a man.—Detroit Free Press.

"1 have just feMted upon the biceps of a dried ostrich and a cup of strange fluid called ‘draw one,’" replied Russell "and the only coin in my pocket hap­ pened to be plugged. If I understand the situation correctly the gentleman with th«> little shovel intends to mako a griddle-cake of me." "I thought Mjmebody was getung killed," said the reporter, looking dis­ appointed. "but if that's all the trouble, I can lend you a dollar eMily enough.” “Thank you,” said Russell, taking the dollar. "I will leave it at your of­ fice at four o'clock to-morrow." Then hs made out an I. O. U. on a leaf of the re­ porter's note-book, paid the check and went out upon the street. Ho aralked slowly along thinking of the queer inci­ dent. It wm nothing in itself, and yet he found a new- sensation in it Three months ago it would have annoyed him. The thought that be had been unable to pay for so poor a meal would have op­ pressed him with a sense of poverty. But he hsd escaped that feeling alto­ gether, and he wondered why. The reason wm plain enough, though he oould not see it Living .m ho had done, wholly in a monotonous routine, such small mishap* had always assumed exaggerated proportions. Trifling embaraMtnenu and the necessary self-de­ nial* of economy had given a false and somber color to his life because he bad them with the small pleasures which are within the reach of everybody. But he viewed life differently now. This preposterous idea of money-getting had taken him out of the present and a false hope offset a false despondency. "Hellol Russell," said a voice at his which bis landlady hired of the lawyer wbo managed the estate of the man who in life had owned the building. He was surprised to see that a light was burning tn bis room, and to find, upon entering, that his return bad been anxiously awaited by almost the only person in tbe world to whom he knew that be was really something more than a face and a name. That tbe current of friendly feeling between the two men did not pass with equal force each way'was Russell's fault alone. His gloomy and mechanical wty of life had shut out friendship from hia heart He had been too solf-centerd. too despondent, too distrustful of the value of such senti­ ments. But Walter Brown was a man of an­ other sort altogether. He trusted every­ body, including himself. He had the warmest possible regard for Russell, and it was visible in his earnest, kindly and handsome face Russell wm glad m* see him—would have been glad to see almost anybody, because ho did not feel in a mood for sleep, and dreaded his own thoughts lest they should be too logical He shook Brown's hand with a hearty. pressure, and then got outs couple of "church warden" pipes and a box of tobacco with a manner full of genuine hospitality. "I'm sorry if I have kept you waiting long." said he, while the pipes were be­ ing filled. “I have been here only half an hour,” Brown replied, "but 1 would gladly here waited much longer rather than to have that pleasure during the next "You are going away?

"Indeed,” he added, mentally, "if that's tbeooodltfon of tbe game I feel pretty sure yon will.” Russell had bandied a billiard cue, and he had never been an expert.

Montreale, a half day's drive distant. Is now only a country village, the brigandish Inhab­ itants of which arc kept exercising their profession by the constant presence of a large body of soldiery. Prevented from following their favorite occupation, the populace are perforce compelled to work, and at tho doors may be seen tho tailor, tho shoemaker and other craftsmen ex­ ercising their trade in full view of the passers-by, while others, unskilled In handicraft, give to the orange tree the little cultivation It requires, and trans­ port to tho markets of Palermo donkey loads of tho delicious fruit. Montreale, though only an Insignificant village, has a cathedral known to artists the world over. Walls, vaulting. pavements, arches, almost every portion of the cath­ edral within, and much without, arc covered with mosaics. Every sort of scene Is represented In these wonderful pictures; bits of Scripture, history, trans­ erlug from tho misrule of the Bourbon figurations, assunptions. ascensions, and Kings, and may in time attain a portion from the great arch in front ot the nave of its ancient greatness.

Situated under a favorable climate, where winter is practically unknown, anu where, being surrounded by large tracts of sea, the heat of summer is softened, it might become, as It once -was. the granary of Italy and Rome; but that time is yet in the distant future. The Roman emper­ ors from Sicilian ports drew no small share of tho grain which kept tho tur­ bulent populace of Romo in good humor, but grain has almost ceased to bo an ex­ port of Sicily. Wheat and other food grain require labor, tho Sicilians do not love labor, so they have planted their land in orange and lemon trees and In vines, so as to secure the largest returns for the smallest outlay of effort.

If he were not, would hr have laid ao much stress on tbe fact that his hero was born of such or such parent*, of such or auch race, and then conjectured that from said parent or parents he inherited such or auch traits ? Wonder who was the first historian introduce this now hackneyed method? See, here are some samples of the trite phraseology of which his example has canned others to be guiltv: "His parents came from Yorkshire, Eng., and from them he inherited the deep sincerity of the Anglo-Saxon character." "Coming of goqd old Pilgrim stock, he early evinced a predisposition for theological controversy, etc." “Of genuine Puritan ancestry, ho was (anything to please readers)." “His parent* were Irish, and frorr. them he inherRed ianything to please, but especially witj." r “Boru in Boston, he had all the ad­ vantages.” <Here are worked iu at­ mosphere, literarjr, not east wind, in­ stitutions of learning, not penal. > “A Virginian by birth, ho was a fine true of tbe Southern gentleman.” (Here are worked in mother of Presi­ dents, Old Dominion, etc.) “His parents were Scotch, and to such origin muat be attributed (good place for intense religion feeling, some­ thing about Bobby Burns, etc.)." “Of humble parents he never forgot the people." (Self-made man is also added.) "The son of German immigrants, he was noted for his sobriety, love of mercantile pursuits, etc.” But of all tho time-worn phrase<, “born of poor but honest parente" is the worst. Not only is its age against it. but it suggests either that poor peo­ ple generally are dishonest, or that if the hero’s parents had been rich’ they could not possibly be honest—two propositions equally absurd. But think what w© are coming to! No doubt the following will be found in the biographies of the. future: "His father was a fine Chinaman, and from him the sou inherited his de­ lightful hnmor, prepossessing counte­ nance and fashionable clothes." “In his veins flowed only the pure blood of the noble Comanehes. which accounts for his imperturbable good nature, strict honesty and civilizing terfdencies." “His father was descended from a bona-fide Oklahoma boomer, and from this source he inherited his love ol. poetrv and fine arts.” “His parents spoke over the first telephone ever put up in Blazerville, Wis., and Io their adventurous spirit must be attributed the stu]»enaone enterprise that characterized hi* career."

Physical beauty was to him a more considerable matter than to Brown; and his preference aS to types was strongly in favor of the blonde. Miss Ray had an abundance of wavy, light hair, and, one might almost say, an abundanoe of blue eyes. too, for they were very large, and she had a habit of opening them like an astonished child. Doubtless, thought Russell, this is what ha* given Brown the impression that she doesn't know much. Then sho had none of the modern artifices to conceal a scant enlightenment. Tho welldnformod woman nowadays is she who can skill­ fully confine the conversation to that portion of the subjesC which she under­ stands, and avoid all the rest of it.

He remembered knew it, and banked on it. “You don't ask me to get into this scheme of yours," said Ray, after walk­ ing up and down the floor with the stop Russell pretended to be embarrassed. “ You would not feel llkc^glving much time to it,” said he, “and besides the young man of whom I have spoken will soon—" “I’m as young as he is, by jingo," cried the man of dollars, slapping his chest. “I could outrun him, outjump him and throw him three times out of five, breeches hold, or you either." Russell smiled again, and Ray reached for his cane. The situation was begin­ ning to look serious. It was not the old* man’s intention to use th® cane as a weapon, however. “Sec herc,t young Mr. William Rus­ sell." said he, “there was a game wo used to play whore I was born that was called 'pulling sticks.* Two fellows sat down on the floor, braced their feet to­ gether and pulled on an axe bundle until somebody had to come up. Now, I’ll bet you fifty dollars I can pull you up inside of one minute.” “I don't think you can, sir," said Rus­ sell. respectfully; "but. at any rate, I haven't the fifty dollars to wager on it." “1’11 take your I. O. U.," cried Ray, dropping on the flig>r with a thump that threatened the tenant* below. “bit down here, and I'll give you a few les­ sons in the valno of a well-spent youth." Russell sat down and seized the cane, and the strange tug-of-war began. It was a painful thought to Russell that a good many thousand dollars were-lost by bolding these athletic sports in pri­ vate. Doubtless five hundred men in the street would have given fifty dol­ lars for admission to the performance. There was a big clock with a second hand on the wall, and the contestant* timed themselves. Neither gained a hair's breadth in the first quarter, nor in the second, nor the third, nor the fourth, but exactly slxty-flve seconds after the tug began Russell rose into the air, soared over-ids opponent’s head and struck the wall behind him. “Groat Scott!” exclaimed Ray, as soon ■ as he could get his breath, "I never did the trick as well as that before. Old, ”m I? Are any of your bones broken?’’ "I believe not," said Russell, pretend­ ing to examine his skull in search of a fracture; "but it was the greatest sur­ prise I ever had. 1 have los: my bet." "No, you haven’t," replied the man who had not grown old. ‘‘1*11 be honest -with you. I was five seconds over time. The fifty dollars are yours. You seel was a little out of practice, but I got there after awhile." “So I perceive;" and Russell rubbed his hood with one hand, and took a fifty dollar bill with tbe other. “Now," said Ray, "if you think I’m youngenough to take a hand in your scheme, let me know. I'm willing to put in one hundred thousand dollars, or twice that if necessary; and as for at­ tention, young man, just watch me. Bring down your papers rnd your model to-morrow, and I’m with yon." This *m a little sudden for Russell. It was needless to say that he had no Invention to offer. It hod been his in­ tention io discover what kind of an in­ vention Ray would be willing to bock, and then find a long-haired crank who thought he had it. "I must have a little more time, sir;*’ he said. "There are matters to be ar­ ranged. Let us say next Friday." “All right, and don't stop forb matter of money. I’ve always got enough to pnt into a good thing." “But my dear sir." said Russell, "you don’t know what this is. yet" "I don't care a continental what it Is,” replied tbe millionaire promptly. “If it's a good thing we'll got our money out of the machine. If it isn’t, we'll have to get It ouft>t the stock. It's im­ material to me which we do. Bring it along!" the time when they had accidentally lunched together, and knew what Rusaell had eaten, and how* much It cost. “It was a good deal more than you needed, young man," sold he, “but per­ haps you knew what you were about." Russell ventured to hope that he did. "A reputation for wealth is a good thing," said Ray. “A young man gets it by spending much more than he can afford and an old man by spending less. Every time some of those fellows down there see me eating apple pie for lunch they add half a million to their estimate of what I'm worth, bnt it wouldn't have done thirty years ago when I .was mak­ ing my start By the way. come down to lunch with me to-morrow. I’ll agree to feed you on something better than pie and milk." Russell accepted the invitation, and entered Ray’s office with an exact re­ gard for the specified hour worthy of Monte Christo. They lunched in a sjyl® of gilded magnifleenoe; and afterward* returned to Ray's office together. Horn Bussell sat down by request *ud Ray Arciy acbairin front of him. “Young man." said be with painful directness, “what's your business?” To Russell this question was not wholly a surprise, though he had not bad time to fully prepare for it His re­ ply, however, was founded upon certain information whidh he bad obtained by judicious inquiry concerning tho pecul­ iarities of the man before him. “I am engaged in the development of an invention," aaid he. “Your own?" “No, air; by a careful study of history I have discovered that there is a great deal more money in not being the in­ ventor. Moreover, a man Is always prejudiced In regard to his own inven­ tion, and therefore blinded to the ne­ cessities ot its development He can not criticize calmly, nor can he describe the merit* of tho idea with convincing coolness.” “You're dead right" said Ray, im­ pressively. "I shall not however. Interest myself in an invention of whoso merits I was incompetent to judge,” continued Rus­ sell. “In this case the subject is famil­ iar to me. I made a special study of electricity !<i college, and have read every thing I could got bold of since. I therefore investigate as an expert when that groat and mysterious force is in­ volved." “It is a great thing;" said Ray; “we're only beginning to find out what it can do." That this was a hobby of Ray’s wa* one thing which Russell had learned. He also knew that tbe millionaire** con­ fidence in electricity was of recent birth, and had not yet been backed by any investment. “Of course capital will be necessary to put the invention of which I speak upon tbe market,” Russell said. There was a shrewd twinkle in Ray's •ye. So this young fellow was trying to “work” him, was he? “I suppose you're looking for a mill­ ionaire to go into it with you?” “No, sir, I am not," replied Russell, firmly. “A millionaire, a man whooe fortune is made. 1* not the right sort of a person for this affair. The money needed is not a great sum, but 1 want with it a man of energy and determina­ tion.

The prisoners were sentenced to tfen, twelve and fifteen years In Siberia. The speaker told of his own arrest with three. others, And the four were inarched off to prison. xBut one prisoner wm a nihilist, and managed to gt-t the prison guards drunk during tho night,, and. tbe fear prisoners escaped. After two hours of* hard walking lha prisoners reachot-almosh the paint from which \hey had start*!. They had Jost their way In the dark aud had mi««ed the road to the railway station thirtyfive miles from tbe prl|pn. The fugi­ tives saw a light in a small bouse and verfvired Id, only to bo received by a constable. But the speaker had a copy of an old song tn his pocket, which he palmed off on tbe llliterato constable for a passport. . The prisoners forged their own pass­ ports, and, escaping from the country, Stepnlak found refuge In London. The speaker then referred to the sys­ tem of trials, by tribunal and by ad­ ministrative Justice, so called, in RussiaMen were allowed a jury in the tribunal . system, and sometimes yrere acquitted. But in tho administrative, justice system they were arrested, convicted, and ex­ iled to Siberia without even knowing wb>t charge had been placed against then?, or knowing the names of their ac­ cusers. They were often taken away by officers to Siberia without knowing the point of destination. Tbe speaker gave a graphic description of tbe In­ quisitorial infliction* on tbe prisoners In Siberia. Two young women who were confined in Jail were forced to disrobe before a crowd of brutal men from the fortress. Odd young offlcsr was arrested for being a nihilist, vjrho went insane while In jail, tout he wm tried and executed while In his demented condition. Out of 193 prisoners at one place In 1877. seventy-four died from privations In Siberia, and now there were only five or six of them alive. There prisoners werosimply*Vropagandlsts whd bad committed no crime, but had simply spoken what they believed. Where oqp prisoner gets a trial there are twentyfive who are convicted without a trial. Tho government now exiles oven chil­ dren. In 1887 319 boys and girls under age war® exWed to Siberia The speaker cited one ease of a little girl 13 years ot age. who had been noisy at a publie demonstration. Tbe police arrested her. She called on the crowd to rescue her, and tho crowd obeyed her appeal. She wm afterward rearrestod and exiled to Siberia, where she committed suicide in prison. Many of the men who are ar­ rested are exiled to satisfy political re­ venge. A man of influence can place a charge of nihilism against a poor enemy and get him out of the way. In conclusion the speaker said nihilism used peaceful means when proper, but wm oftentimes compelled'; to use de­ structive methods. .But tho day wm coming when tho army would support tbe nihuisfs, and a general uprlsfng of the people would overthrow tho Cur's dynasty. Where there are one hundred prominept leaders there are thousands upon thousands of dissatisfied people who never take an active part In fight­ ing for the doctrines of better govern­ ment. Nihilism was spreading among them. The opinion of America, which wm decidedly against despotism, had great weight with the Intelligent classes tn Russia.

This will re­ duce the price per gallon about 2 cents, and giro a better oil, because the high test takes the illuminating qualities from It. The bill also reduces tho salary of State OU Inspector from 81,500 to a sum not exceeding fHOO; deputy from 81,200 to a sum not oxceeding 8600. The feo of Inspection is also reduced from onequarter to one-ten th of a cent per gallon. Representative Dafoe has a bill which amend* the law for levying taxes upon log* so that they shall be considered in 19 THE. transit when they shall have been moved from the spot where cut. Heretofore they wore not subject to taxation until the Jam was broken; this was delayed in many eases until after the assessment was made in the township where'they happened to be located, and they- prac­ more tically escape:! taxation.

The original armament of the Thunderer consisted of two 38-ton and two 35-ton muzz.le-loajiing guns, and it may bo remembered that one of these burst, in the coarse of practice, inside the turret, with fatal results. It was pretty generally believed that the cause of the accident was that tho gun had been twice loaded before firing. The new guns, two of which are mount­ ed on each turret, are of 10-inch caliber and 29 tons weight.

Gty housekeepers have learned to realize that to save time is to lengthen life. SAPOLIO ! is one of the best known city luxuries and each time a cake is used an hour is saved.

It is not infrequently the case that itching pimples and irritating “cat boils” are the fore runners of larger boils, or the more serious carbuncles. Invariably Nature puts out her dan­ ger signals, and they should be heeded at once. The pimples and little boils show that the blood is not in a good condition and nature is trying to re­ lieve the system. A few doses of Swift’s Specific at this juncture will accomplish wonders. The eruption will be healed and the system cleansed of its Impurities. The modern pftraparaphraseof theold saying,“ A stitch in time,"etc., is that “Timely stitches will save nine pairs of breeches.” The modem fnrm has a touch ui humor that does not modify the truth of it. In that vern we may say that, a course ' of Swift’s Specific prevents ills terrific. - VICINITY gleanings The Hatting* fire department ha* Just purehaacd 500 feet of double jacket bow.

' 13 • •This machine, if once set in motion, will never stop," said the Inventor, m he poured out a glass full of beer; ’’I rehow to set it in motion, but that is a trifle, air; a trifle. The solution of this little -difficulty will come"—-and he tapped his forehead confidently. He was a leaa-bodiod. thin-legged man, clad in ill-fl Hing and soiled gar­ ments. His face did not harmonise with his gaunt figure. It was of tbe German type, round and full in tho cheeks, with high color, and sandy board and mus­ tache. Tbe contrMt told his story: his Invention had fed upon him, while he himself had had only the poor nourish­ ment of hope. He had been talking ful­ ly two hours; and Ruaaell had begun to fear that the poor fellow's vocal organa realised the dream of endless motion which his invention would forever dis­ appoint. "I have no use for this machine un­ less it can go,” said Russell, "i read the story of a reporter who said that its movements were such as he had never seen in any thing inanimate before.” Ths inventor smiled as he filled his glass with beer and placed the empty bottle with twenty others in a clrclq around the edge of the table, in tbe mid­ dle of which stood the wonderful ma­ chine. ■’ ■ *T remember the young man well,*' said he. "A pleasant fellow he was, too, but he hadn't your head for beer. We drank only seventeen bottles that morning, and yet be told me that this machine went whirling round and round with a motion which he felt sure that nothing tn Heaven or earth oould ever stop. His description wm not wholly accurate, but it gave that idea of end­ less rotary force which my machine will realise some day. I think he musthave written the story immediately after leaving me, though I would not at the time have thought it possible. It wm not a deception of tbe public; it wm a view in advance of me reality. We shall see it some day.** Russell; "but let me give yon some ad­ vice. Don’t work too steadily at this thing. Get something else to do and let this be your relaxation. It will be better for you and It will not hurt the machine.” He forced a payment for the twenty bottles of beer, bade the Inventor a cheerful good-bye and escaped just as 871 another lecture on occult mechanics was about to begin. . It was tbe second day of Russell's search for an Invention. He had begun the work m'soob m he had left Gilbert Ray's office after tbe little game of “pulling eticks." An advertisement in a newspaper had brought him a bushel of letters from inventors, and he had be­ gun to sift their merit*. The result so far had not been encouraging. Tho first load of replies had consisted of ninety per cent, lunacy and ten per cent, fraud; but among those which were waiting for him at tbe newspaper office after his adventure with beer and perpetual motion was one which gave promise of real value. It was a rough, straight forward letter, signed John Doering. The writer described him­ self as an assistant foreman in a shop where electrical machinery was made. Ho had long been familiar with the subject, practically and theoretically. He had invented an electrical engine, and he would like to have the adver- Russell called upon John Deering that evening at his home in a suburban town. The Deerings lived in a bouse well kept and full of comfort. There was no sign of del t, dirt or other ap­ purtenance of genius.

The Canadian Was begun wiucw'hat nar­ row. At a depth of fifty-eight frol a landslide deposited about sixteen feet of soil in this cutL’ng. Work was started again about ten rods farther back. At the portal the Canadian great cutting is sixty feet deep It Is 360 fcet.wido at Us 'broadest portion^ From the portal it HURON rises one foot in fifty feet for 3,192 feet. The An.oriian great cutting is fifty-two fact deep, about 200 feet wide at Its broadest part, and rises one foot in fifty fact for 2,533 feet. An ii.clined track was laid for flat cars to haul out the tun­ nel soil. In September. 1890, two steam shovels began work on each side of the river. Ea-h shovel was attended by a locomotive and train of flat cars Hun­ dreds of men arc employed day and uighL When the tunnel proper was commenced scarcely more than two lay­ ers of the soli had been removed. The tunnel..company grew impatient, and on Monday, Feb. 9, 1891, took the Canadian work from the contra tor*. Over >00 torn arc employed. As the tunnel will •not be opened for traffic until after the approaches are. completed the work on the cutting Is being rushed. Mr. Alfred E Beach, an American ■engineer, designed am) used a shield in the Broadway tunnel. New York City, dn 1868. Since then similar ahioids have •been used in Chicago. Buffalo. Hudson . River, London, and other tunnels. This ■excavating shield may be compared to a cylinder with no head. It Is a circle of •tool r plates. Inside these plates are braces, doors, and aids for the workmen. In the front end are knife-edges to pene­ trate the soil. In the rear portion uf the ah'eld, around tho main walls, are hp draulic jacks, each supplied with a valve, .-b that Its action may be independent of others. Tho material of the tunnel walls, masonry, or can-iron, Is built In the rear of tho shield. ^Pressure is ap.pllcd to tho hydraulic rams, and thus the shied is pushed ahead the length of the Jacks* pistons Tho soil Is pushed into the front of the shield, and the men re<w>ve It by loading It u|»n cars, whjch are pushed out to the tramways, on which they are drawn by mules, or horses- to tbe entrance of U>e tunnel, where they are hoisted to the regular flat cars and taken to the dulnplng ground. While tho men are removing the sol! in front thr men In thu rear are busy erecting tbc walls of the tunnel. In ca«e of Iron plates, a revolving cram1 lifts the plate bj< means of a counter balanee weight to the desire J portion, •where it Is bolted to the other plates. When tbe section of the tunnel is com­ pleted. and the pistons of tho rams have been drawn back, the air is applied again, and the jacks pushed forward for atiut£er section ot tho tunnel to bo put fa-. By this arrangement tbc? workmen are always protected from danger above, around or below. The air preaauro keeps tlm water back in front, and thr oted tunnel protect* the rear. ’Two shields were used Io the .tjtflOair mm-I. Each weighed eighty tons. ' ha| were brought in sections to the ■jorth bank of the cutting, where they war® erected. Then earn'* the problem of •placing tbe shields iu position. Wooden tracks wore laid, huge ropes were placed .around each shield, and they were grad­ ually lowered by men In eighty min■ales they were in place at tbc proposed ■mouth of the tunnel. Each shield was .16 feet lung, and had an outside diameter of I'lAleei. Tbe Steel platM were 1 inch trnSH- E*rl> shield had twenty-four hydraulic rams at equal distance* apart.

The Completion nt the hole waa the beginning of the end. A vast amount of work had yet to be done. The tunnel waa cleaned and tho tramways' beds of clay, about two feet thick, were removed. , Tho cast-Iron walls were painted with some anti-rust compound, hundreds of • thousands of bolt* were tightened, and by brilliant minds and wonderful inven- The. American shield started July 11, 1881k tho Canadian Sept 21, 1889; they met al nearly midnight of Aug. 30. 1H90. Tho Canadian had gone* 2.686.10 feet, and tho American 3..*yx>6 feet. Work had been pushed night and day. in shifts of eight hours, for electricity lighted tho shields and tunnel, and early comple­ tion of the tunnel was a great object The average progress of each shield was ton feet a day; but one day twentv-seveh feet and ten Inches w*» accomplished, and tho record of tunnel construction was excelled. ’ Chief EngineerH<»b«on advised having these tunnel walls of cast Iron. Each section was composed of a key and 13 segments, each segment being 4 feet 10 inches long. 18 inches wide, and 2 Inches thick. Each had inside flanges 0 Inches deep and an Inch and three-quarters thick. In each segment wore 4 holes in ekch end and 12 holes lu each .side flange. These 32 holes were occup cd by steel bolts, each jcvcn-cighths of an Inch In diameter. Each sc tion of tho com­ pleted tunnel was a clrc'e whose radius was 9 feet and 11 inches. Each section required for the longitudinal Joints 56 bolts, and for the circular Joints 157 bolts, a total of 213 bolts for each fool and a half of tho tunnel. It required 828,150 bolts to fasten together the 27,000 tons ot the cast-iron lining of this tun­ nel. Each segment was heated and dipped Into a val of coal tar. By the time it was cool the tar was dried in. This method was the happy thought of a workman. Another workman invented a tool which Increased three times tho rapidity of loading tho claj* upon tbe Tunneling was nearly stopped at the line of the river by water and quicksand. Compressed air was tried. On each side of the river, beneath tho shore lines, air-tight bulkheads of brick and cement were built across the-line of the tunnel. Above each car-track and on each side of tho bulkheads were erected two air­ locks. oa< h seventeen feet long and seven feet In diameter, with air-tight doors al ea< h end. The outside door would be opened and meh or mules admitted to the air-lock. Horses could not stand the pressure. Tho door being closed and the air-valve opened, the air-pressure would be increased until t ie atmosp teres of the lock equaled the atmosphcios Inside the inner portion of tho'tunnel, when the Inner door could be opened. and the men or animals admitted to the works. Il took several minutes to properly iu- Certain rules bad to be obeyed. The workmen had to hire vigorous bodies, and be examined by the company's phy­ sician before receiving admission to the compressed air. Two deaths resalted from the bad results of the air-pressure. The air caused terrible feelings, espe­ cially to strangers. In tho beginning of the under-river section the three gangs, each of twenty-five men, worked under an extra atmospheric pressure of tan pounds to the square inch. This was In­ creased slowly and at interva s. to twen­ ty-two pounds per square inch, rr about two and one-half times the usual atmos­ pheric pressure.

In consideration of thii low rental the lessee is to keep the booth clean and in perfect order, well lighted and free from objectionable characters. Btjch booths have proven a success in Paris, Vienna, Berlin and other European cities, and tbe pro­ jectors see no reason why they should not be introduced in New York, par­ ticularly when a good revenue for the privilege is given to the city. The authority of the board to grant the privilege was questioned by some of the members, and President Arnold referred tbe petition to tho Law Com­ mittee. ____________________ The surface water In the cuttings will bo taken care of the portala It Is esti­ mated that not over fifteen gallons a The Queen of England recently re­ minute of water escape Into the tunnel ceived a royal gift.

The tunnel entrance is flush with tbe lining, and is twenty feet In diameter. The portal’s only lettering is two lines— “SSL Clair. 1890."

It was estimated that the tunnel would cost >2,500,000, plants, materials, and labor included. Not much will be left of that sum. It Is likely that a second tunnel will be built beside this one. If so, this one's plant and experience will be quite serviceable. If it is built It will be made of cast-iron, as that has been found to be better than masonry. The tunnel and its approaches have a total length of 11,725 feet, divided as fol­ lows: Canadian cutting, 3.192 feet; American cutting, 2,533 feet; from Cana­ dian portal to water’s edge, 1,034 feet; from American portal- to wateigs edge. 1.716 feet; tunnel under water, 2,390 feet; total length of tunnel, 6,000 feet.

I want you to put down my vote to the wing theory. I know the bird has a little month talk, or note, which I have often heard when birds were mating and strutting on the ground in the spring, and the eame note I have heard often from the old bird when I have been catching the young chicks; but tbe round or note ia not the same aa the-whiatle of the continuous-flying, full-plumaged bird, and I have oo often had the slightly wounded bird in my hand, and held by the bill or feet, make, as I am sure, the same whistling with his wings, that I cannot be mistaken; and the bird when not in plumage, held the name wav. does not make thewhistle. 1 know that we do not all heiar, see nor think alike; but any person who will take a full-plumaged woodcock that is lively, hold it by the bill or foot, and let it have full use of its wings, cannot but l>e convinced the whistle is m*de with the wings. Audubon should be pretty good au­ thority. and he records the noise as made by the wings; and among all my bird acquaintances I do not rumember one bird that has a continuous mouth note when flying, but very /nany have a wing whistle when flying, such as the gold-eyed duck, whistling swau and others, and can be heard a long distance.

Since primitive man discovered the adaptability of atone, wood, and burned bricks compost d of clay and sand for house-building, no equally useful building material has Wen added tc the list. According to the Amcricati' Furniture Gazette, a German me­ chanic has recently patented an inven­ tion which has certainly many advan­ tages over the old-fashioned brick ol clay, though use may not prove it to be in all respects superior. Its practical design and ingenuity are characteristic of the modern ten­ dency of inventions. It is in the form and of about the aiza of an ordinary brick, but is composed of cast iron and is hollow. The shell is so thin that the brick weighs less than one made of clay. A wall is built of such bricks without the use of mortar, 'and no skilled labor is required in laying them. Tho upper and lower side* of the bricks are pro­ vided with grooves and projecting ribs, which fit into each other easily and perfectly, and form a wall ol great strength. There are also two large circular openings in the upper side of each brick, arranged so as to receive projectiopa on the lower side of the brick that Is to be placed above it. One ol the-e projections is hook-shaped, which insures a solid hold. A w all ol the bricks is vervquicklv put together. After the wall is built it is covered with paint. This closes all the cracks, renders the wall air-tight, and pre­ vents the bricks from rusting. By the use of'good paint the wall can be made highly ornamental. Tbe bricks are \ery durable, and a building made of them is perhaps as nearly fire-proof os possible. A wall thus constructed can bo taken down or rebuilt as readily as it can be put up. There is no mortar to when l>e removed, as there clay bricks are used, bouse with such walls is cool mer and warm in winter, for tbe large sir spaces prevent the passage of heat. With a supply of such bricks a man can put up his own house, aud be en­ tirely independent of bricklayers, mor­ tar-mixers and hod-carriers. If he does not like his house, he can take it down and build another with the same material, which is always aa good as Kono Superlatives.

Jt was asserted that not less than 175,000, and probably 'as much as 1100,000. was contributed by Italians all over the country for a defense fund. Thousands of dollars, it was said, came from Chicago and New York, and farm • laborers were taxed gt-a head. These statements only served to infuriate the enraged populace still more, and as a consequence a call appeared In the pa­ pers, signed by one hundred prominent citizens, for a mass meeting to assemble at the Clay statue “to take steps to remedy tbe failure of Justice In tho Hennessey case." “Come prepared for action," was the concluding Injunction in tbc call. The mob congregated at the Clay statue in broad daylight.

Easter is the time for tho divining of a good year by the height of' the .water, and for the decoration ot well*. “Few people," says a naval officer, appreciate the tremendous power of the blast caused by firing a big gun on board of a ship. An example of it* effect was seen in some recent trials in firing the 64-ton gun of tho new battle­ ship Trafalgar, considered one of the three or four finest vessel**in the Brit­ ish navy. The gun was Tainted di­ rectly ahead, and fired with a charge of 630 pounds of slow-burning powder and a 1,'250-pound- projectile. The blast produced by a rush of the powder-gas and the shot was so tre­ mendous that the plate* of the fore­ castle were forced in and the 'deck­ beams bent out of shajie, while almost every round carried away some frag­ ment of the projecting portions of the ship, even when the training wns to the right or left. It is estimated that tho vessel would be reduced to some* thing very like a wreck, were twentylive rounds to be fired, either Erectly ahead or directly astern. This interferferes with, or render* imiiossib'e, firing when either in flight or-chase, and has caused our naval constructors to modify the plans for the projected battle-ships, a* it i* not deemed desir­ able to have \them sink from the dis­ charge of their own guns.” A writer in the Albany Expreas soya: “A friend of mine has for several years been annoyed by a curious circum­ stance. Ope side of his mustache grows about twice as fast os the other, aud if it is neglected for a few .weeks he will suddenly notice that it is from half au inch to an inch longer on the left than on the right. He is obliged to keep cutting it off from time to time to make things even.

Mystery hangs over the-ruins and every visitor to Madison learns portions "of their strange his­ tory. In 1860 a young Englishman, Benja­ min Walker, made his appearance in Madison, accompanied by his wife and two infant children. He had plenty of money and he spent-it with a lavish hand. Soon after hi* appearance he l»egan to build a castle, drawing his own plans, hiring his own work­ men and superintending the work. The castle was media-vol in de­ sign, with immense thick walls and underground chambers to connect it with the State buildings standing a short distance off. It stood on top of a steep hill, amid beautiful scenery, and with the waters of beautiful Lake Mendota almost laving ite .aides. Tho walls were so thick that ventilation was bad and the castle was conse­ quently unhealthy.' Soon after Mr. Walker moved into it, two of his chil­ dren died and were buried on the grounds. Their death affected him seriously. . He confined himself to the castle and* was seen no more in society. Using the underground passages ho spent nearly all his time in his stable and neglected his wife and household. An English doctor remonstrated with to England. He became a wanderer among men, finally locating in Ismailia, Egypt, where he devoted him­ self to the study of Oriental language, antiquities and history. There he died two years ago.

They lived magnificently and rolled about town in elegant equipages. But there was something mysterious about the castle at night. Carefully veiled women were seen to arrive at the castle at the deep of night and find admittance there. Queer noises, resembling groans and shrieks ol pain, were heard coming from its walls. It was t-aid "Dr." and Mrs. Thompson followed a nefarious truffle. Then th?re was a son of this strange couple, a violent fellow and much given to liquor. Quarrels in the family were frequent, and one day the non died and was buried on the prem­ ises. An inquest was held, but noth­ ing interesting.resulted, aud >oon after­ ward the strange couple moved away and were heard of no more. Tho castle remained deserted; no tenant would live in it and popular belief claimed that it was haunted by the restless spirits of the dead. These began to circulate. Phosphorescent lights were seen to proceed from its windows and wild cries pierced tho stillness of the night. At length the place was raided. The police found rich booty, the accumulat<-d plunder of an organized band of thieves that had laid the country far and near under contribution, and that had made the castle their headquarters and place of storage. In the underground passages was found an immense quantity of riches, jewelry, finery, and furniture. And now succeeds decay. Care­ takers can no longer be induced to live in the haunted pile. The once beautiful grounds have become a wil­ derness and rank vegetation spreads everywhere. The walls of the English­ man's castle still stand, strong aud massive, but tho hand of ruin and de­ cay holds it in an unrelenting grasp. The Madison branch of the P..

Some time over a month ago the train, in charge of Conductor Whoedon, pulled out from Columbus, and just beyond that city the trainmen observed two black cats crossing the track ahead of the locomotive. It was jokingly remarkixl that thia was a sign of ill-luek. and, sure enough, the train was wrecked a few momenta after. Fortunately no­ body was hurt. Since then the train­ men claim to have seen one or both black cats crossing the track ahead of the train several times, and some mis­ hap always followed. Night before last the black cat croasud in front of the train again, and sure enough the engine broke her “scddle" a few milea below Columbus. This is the last piece of ill-luck credited to the black cat. It is said that the trainmen are becoming nervous over the persiiteuet of the ebon-hued feline, and next time they see it cross lieforo the train will turn back for a frrah start at. the risk of a discharge. 3 he belief in the evil influence of a black cat is aa old as the hills, but is especially strong among railroad men.

There is much truth in thia observa­ tion.' Tho mountain range that forms . tlie eastern boundary of Chili, by cut­ ting off that country from anything like facile communication with the cen­ ters of civilization, Los left these cen­ ters in an almost pitiable condition of ‘ignorance regarding it. Telegraphic communication with Europe is maintained by two lines of •wires, the one running northward by way of Peru to the United States, and the other carried across the Andes to Buenos Ayres, and thence along the Atlantic coast to Pernambuco, from which point a cable is laid to Lisbon. But mes.-oges are expensive, costing alx>ut^3 per word, the Trnnsandeau Line, moreover, being subject to oc­ casional breakdowns, especially during tbc middle months of tho year, while , letters from the Chilian capital arc culy dispatched once a fortnight, and take about six weeks to get to London. Travelers, too, desirous of viaiting what is claimed to be the model South American Republic, find they have to spend about the same amount of time either in travers­ ing the Straits of Magellan and coasting north­ ward, or crossing the Isthmus of Panama and Malting southward to Valparaiso.

Under these circumstances, it is Dot strange that ignorance is the rule as re­ gards Chili and her people, and ’ espec­ ially her politics. There is a general impression that the first produces copper and that tho second are fond of styling them­ selves “The English of South Amer­ ica,”—which, by the way, they never do— but aa regards the third, the lack of information is all but complete. The aimpie sentence, “Chili is a Republic,” may bo said to cover current knowl­ edge. Now, Chili is indeed a] republic, but a rebnblie, up to a short time back, for less akin to such modern developments as France and the United States tfc*n to Genoa and Venice.

But with the acquisition of the guano dejioaita, ceded as a war indemnity, and of the wealthy provinces ot Antofa­ gasta, Tar^paca and Tacna, with their nitrate deposit#, yielding an enormous annual revenue in the shape of export duty, the condition of political affairs was greatly altered. Government posts of every kind were multiplied and salaries augmented, while on the principle of supply and de­ mand a large body of professional poli­ ticians, notably recruited from among nniveraity students and barristers,sprang up to take advantage of this.

He was noted for his purity of life and sweet­ ness of temper. It is told that once two men were talking together uf him, and one said that he had never be«n known to show the slightest anger. Th$ other replied that, perhaps.'bis temper had Dot been totted. Presently wbes Dock came along he reviled him fiercely, bit­ terly and profsuely. Tbs only reply mode by Dock was: “Friend, may the Lord have mercy upon thee.”sDock was a Mennonite. and taught school in 1738, in Salford and Skippack, three days of each week alternately. In 1750 Christopher Saur, the pub­ lisher. by the way the ancestor of the Sower, now ot tlie Christopher Sower Fnblishiug Company in Philadelphia, conceived tlie idea that a description of Dock's methods of teaching should be publishml. But Dock was too modest to permit the treatise wluch he had written to appear in public iu his life time, and hence the work was not pub­ lished till after Dock's death in 1770. Tbe title of the book i<: “Eine einfaeliige und gntendiiche abgefasste SchulOrduung, darinnen deutlioh vorgestellt wird, auf welche Wefeme die Kinder nicht nur in denen in Lchulen gewoehulicben Lebem bestans augebracht, sondern auch in der iLehre der GotUeligkeit wohl unterriehtet werden moegen.

DON’T BEGLOOMY. Those who are the victims of mer­ curial poisoning, or who are suffering from mercurial rheumatism, are in­ clined to take a gloomy view of life when, as the poet says, “winter is fold­ ing its white tents and spring getting its thunder storms together." Yet these victims have no reason to de­ spair. S. S. S. is a sure remedy for all forms of mercurial poisoning. Though It is purely a vegetable medicine, It is liowerful, indeed, when called on to chase mercury, and the last lingering effects of mercury, out of the system. It performs the work with neatness and dispatch, as thousands of testi­ monials show. ALWAYS GET THE BEST. Persons who suffer from rheumatism want immediate relief. It is not enough that the pain should be eased, and the appetite be increased. Any­ thing short of a cure is only prolong­ ing torture. The poisonous acids In the blood, which is the direct cause of Rheumatism, are immediately and ef­ fectually expelled by Dr. Drummond's Lightning Remedy. Where it fails to perform a cure, the price Is refunded. If the druggist cannot furnhh'it the remedy will oe sent prepaid to any ad­ dress on receipt of price, five dollars.

Such Is far from b'lng the case, and tho impression ought to bi torrecied wherever it exists. Tho Lake Front Park embracoss less than fifty acre®, and was at first Intend­ ed as a sort of down-town side show to the main Exposition. It was propo.scd to lo'ato there only a few exh.bit* which would । rove specially attractive In tho evening. Jackson and Washington parks and Midway Plaisance connecting them embrace moru than 1,000 acres, and Jackson Park has a frontage of two miles on Lako Michigan- Tho whpki constitutes the finest site an exposition ever had Here the entire Exposition will be hold. FroRthe start there was great’oppodtion to a dual site and to one portion of lhe Exposition being several miles from the other. Now geheral sat­ isfaction is expressed that the whole of it will be In one place. A Warning to I o • Owner*.

Director Jeffery, who spent two months In studying the buildings at tbe Paris Exposition, says: “The buildings at the Chicago Exposi­ tion will be as much superior to those at Paris as the latter were superior to those at the Philadelphia Centenn-al. ’There can be no question* that the effect at Jackson Park will astonish lhe world.

The young man in the express car was somewhat doubting the evidence of his own senses, for had he not heard the voice? He could swear to it.

The Society for General Culture had survived the summer, and Its members bad oome back from the shores of the aalt sea with an added thirst for knowl­ edge. One of the girls had also a groat idea to propose at the society's first meetings It was not original, but it was the latest fad in societies of that kind—a revival of an ancient custom. She suggested that they find some struggling poet and help to win recog­ nition for him. 'Russell must know one, and it would be such fun to encourage the poor fellow and help him by judi­ cious criticism snd a little money, till at last he oould get his poems into the magazines. . Rusaell reflected a moment while a great and amusing scheme filtered through hl* brain. “ha la a deserving fellow,‘but without some help bls genius will never be known.” The man whom Rusaell had in mind was tbe janitor of a down-town.building, a young fellow with about as much idea of poetry a* a wooden Indian. But natare had given him an ideal exterior— the long hair, the thin, hqngry-looklng visage, and the eyes which forever fixed themselves on vacancy. Russell had .often remarked what a perfect picture •f'the traditional poet this man was. The yearning look in bls eyes might have expressed the craving of genius for the ideal, but in reality it was the hardened expression of covetousness. A more znatterof-fact, hard-fisted, un­ romantic pursuer of tbe glittering dol­ lar it would have been impossible to im­ agine. In the building where he worked he was known as Cupid, on account of Ma cupidity. Bussell's plan was to hire this man to cdety's meetings. After mature deliber­ ation he decided to let Alice into the secret partly because he did not like the idea of Jeoelving her, and partly be­ cause he doubted his ability to do so. It required some persuasion to bring her to consent, but at last she entered fully into the plot and helped Russell to con­ coct the soulful mess for Cupid to read. Ills first appearance and the poem were an immense success. He read a twenty­ line wa’ll called "Dust and Ashes," a title suggested to Rusaell by the fellow's occupation. The girl* were in rapture, and it was immediately decided that the poet must read before a larger audience during tbe following week. The socie­ ty Would issue about fifty invitations, and begin at once its work of introduc­ ing the poet Rusaell was somewhat alarmed at the success of his joke, but he determined to carry it as far ar. It would go. The Iboked kindly down at him; he had it on his lips to tell her. At this moment Gilbert Ray entered by a door from the hill, and Mrs. Bay appeared simultaneously through a Jap­ anese portiere on tbe right. Both caught sight of the little group on the hearth rug at tho same instant Ray said “Jingo" and slammed tbe door be­ hind him. There was a smothered “oh my!” from Mrs. Ray as her ample form parted the portiere with a rattle. “What’s the matter with • them?" asked Alice, laughing. "Are they erasy?" “No." said Rusaell. rising slowly, "but they th ink that I am. Perhaps they are right but my madness shall be harmless, even if it can not now be cured." This experience tought Rusaell cau­ tion,but It can hardly be said to have been of any higher sort than tbe caution of cowardice. He simply ran away. His visits to the Raya became more and more infrequent. Ho gave up the So­ ciety for Culture, and bribed Cupid to seek oblivion. His manner of living became different, and not better. He plunged into ex­ travagance, and though dissipation and kindred vices had no attractions for him, and he thus managed to escape 'them, ho succeeded in spending a great deal of money, and was soon heavily in debt. _ *'* Tbe Manhattan Electro-Motor Com­ pany had begun active operations. A factory had been secured and machines were being made. The capital stock had been Increased, and Rdy was put­ ting in bis money In a way which showed that he meant to wage a serious com­ mercial warfare. Russell drew a good salary as treasurer and manager of the company, and to bls credit it must be said that he worked bard and .exercised good ability; but as treasurer and man­ ager of his own affairs he was not a suc­ cess. He had become careless, and took no account of personal expenditures. Work was harder for him than it had been in the old days. His brief time of leisure had made effort difficult. It was not easy for him to understand why this was true. Looking back upon the ex­ perience of idleness he could see noth­ ing pleasant in it, and yet he clung to IL An exercise of will was now neces­ sary to accomplish tasks far easier than the old drudgery which he had per­ formed mechanically. But Ray wt» well satisfied with his efforts, and talked very hopefully of the future of tbv company. "We are going to use these motors on street railways," said he, " and Tm re­ volving one or two points in my mind which must be earefully considered. Eventually we shall organize a railway company, and the question is whether to do it here in New York or strike some smaller place.” “The streets seem full of tracks here," said Russell. “It isn’t tracks" said Ray, “it's fran­ chises we want to look out for. With the help of legislation we can steal aliitie piece of this city, but with an equal expenditure we oan steal a whole town in the West or even in New Jersey, if we can find one there that isn’t already stolen. The question is: Where's there tho most money? I’m rather in favor of a new place that may grow in a State where legislation hasn't so rigid a mar­ ket price." Tbe question was left unsettled for the time being, and it was decided to market tbe motors in another way at flrsL Russell gave his attention to the superintending the preparation of the works, and the construction of as many machines as were necessary for purposes of exhibition. The stock had been worked up to a salable figure; indeed, among a few who had "the tip" it was regarded as a good thing. At Ray's suggestion lhe necessary money jWas now raised by the sale of stock certificates which were to be put on the market as tbe machines were made— that la, when ten machines had been bullL a hundred shares might be sold on the treasurer’s certification. The stock was placed on deposit with a trust company, and could be disposed of only under the treasurer's authorization. Meanwhile Russell was getting harder and harder pressed financially. His means of lx>rrowing see mod exhausted, and his old-time economy had apparently fled beyond recall. He was involved in a dozen difficulties, but bad hitherto man­ aged, on his original plan of borrowing from Peter to pay Paul, to keep bls credit from utterly falling to pieces. But tife sums necessary were larger now, and harder to manage. And here temp­ tation soiled upon him. His power to authorize the sale of the stock certifi­ cates and to receive the money th us rev­ ised was the bait used by Satan. In preparation of the poem, however, was a work of considerable magnitude, and. with Alice, he epent a great many hours figging out the verses. Allee proved to be remarkably clever at this sort ot work, and together they evolved a sad narr*ttve of disappointed affection, with a climax which cast a general blight over Ifee face of nature. It wasn't so bad after alL and when the society and ita gueeta ■wallowed the production for a work of genius, and overwhelmed Cupid with congratulations, the real authors were not only amused but flattered. They had been “taken in” by their own pro­ duction no less than the others. Cupid, in reply to a hundred questions, told the lie which had been prepared for him by Bussell, with a face as somber as the opening of a hard winter, and tbe two •onspirators got no end of fnn out of his •tolid bearing in the midst of bis hon­ ors. All aorta of ridiculous plans for once or twice but succeeded in keeping getting him into favor were proposed; square accounts. But the company had Bed Russell foresaw that'’eventually only a small balance. Ray was occupied Oipid would have to disappear or bo'dis- in other schemes just then, and his at­ fovered.

He knew'that in such a case compromise would be easy. If the worst came be could go to these men and say: "You have bought these certificates. but you have no redress against the company. You should feel satisfied if you get your money back. I will pay you that on condition of your silence.’’ It would not hare been the first loan that had been forced in that way In the commercial history of New York. Having authorised one overissue, it was not so hard to bring himself to do it again, and be did it, much to bis dlsAbout this time Ray turned his atten­ tion to the Motor Company’s affairs once more, and it was not long before Bussell began to be afraid that tho old financier “smelt a mice.” He was-more fright­ ened than he bad ever been before in his life, and nearly fainted away when, one day, Ray proposed to go with him to the factory and make an inspection. He succeeded in putting off the catastro­ phe for a time long enough to give him an opportunity to consider. Ruin of the worst kind stared him in tho face, If he could not deceive Ray tbe game was up. He thought of a dozen plana, and _ at last hit upon one which was so alm-' pie that it looked almost childish, and yet he believed that it would work. The machines were stored in a rough, dimly-lighted room at the factory. There were about a dozen of them in two rows. There should have been twenty to make the aooounta oome out right. Russell secretly visited the fac­ tory ahead of Ray, and, on some pre­ tense of showing the machines to better advantage, he bad some workmen put a big mirror against the wall behind the rows of motors. This wall had no win­ dows, for the light was admitted at each end of tho room. The edges of the mirror Russell carefully concealed. Then he had a short and confidential Interview with the engineer. The room was heated by steam pipes tn win­ ter. It was then May, and a hot day, too, but Rusaell got the engineer to switch the steam into this room full head. Then hecloscdtbe windows, and In about an hour tbe temperature rose to that of the hot room in a Turkish bath. Ray came out about five o'clock In the afternoon. He was in a hurry, and Bussell knew it. Russell, showed him through various parts of the building, and at last they 9limbed the stairs to the room In which tho motors were stored. It was like a fiery furnace when Ray, already puffing with bls climb up the steep stairs, put his head into it “Great heavens’’’ he exclaimed, mop­ ping his forehead, “what section of the infernal regions is this?" “It is necessary to keep the machines at a high temperature for a few days,” Russell explained, with shaking nerves. "They work tho better for it" The room was not very light, but the machines were plainly visible from a little raised platforry near the stairs. "Let us stop here,” said Russell; .“there la more air.” "I’ll have to get out of here," said Bay; “I’m roasting.” He ran bls eye hastily over lhe ma­ chines. counting them. The illusion of the mirror from that point was good. “I make twenty-six,” said he. * 1’Thank heaven,” said Russell, under his breath; “tbe old man has not only counted the Images in tbe mirror, but he has seen two of them double.” They descended hastily. "Every thing seems to be going right," said Ray when he had regained his breath. "Yes," replied Russell, with a sigh of relief. "We have had a few narrow es­ capes out here, but I trust our troubles pan to broaden and assume definite ftaslf. "We shall need some political influ­ ence in working this motor right,’’ Ray had said. “Why don’t you go into pol­ itics a little? It would give you a chance and the whisper that Russell was an Englishman began to hurt him, It was very little use to contradict that rumor by showing that his great-grandfather had been born on Cape Cod. The exi­ gency required something much better than that Rooney grew quite despond­ ent thinking about it "Everywhere I go I find this thing agin’ me," said he. “Couldn’t you rake up some relatives in Ireland? Ww must find something to offset this business." Bussell had begun to be Interested in the fight; and he took this question un­ der serious consideration. At length, he remembered that Ray’s coachman was named William Russell. The iden­ tity of tbe names had once been tbe cause of an amusing little scene. Rus­ sell at once hunted up the coachman and inquired where be was born. "Dublin, be the blessln’ av Heaven," exclaimed William, promptly. Russell shook him warmly by the hand. “I want to borrow tho certificate of your birth," said he. "Bless yer heart, sor, I haven't such a thing." . “Never mind; give me the dates and I'll cable across for the properly-oerti­ lled papers. We can get them here In time to elect me.’’ Russell secured his facta and bribed the coachman to silence. Then he cabled at once for the papers which ar­ rived without delay. Rooney was more than delighted. “This wins the day for us," said he. "You don’t look quite forty-two but moat of the men who'll see this paper are not quick at figures.” The canvass progressed finely. Rus­ sell joined several Irish societies and, It may be added parenthetically, -was surprised to find that they were excel­ lent organizations, doing much good and promoting a hearty sociability. He made speeches, and proved to be a very successful liar on a variety of subjects, none of which meant any thing to him. But one day towards the end of i| all he was approached by a shrewd old fel­ low whom he had met in the course of* his brief political career, and for whose judgment he had learned to have a men who might be useful to us." Russell bad replied that he would just as lief go into politics as any thing else, and he had looked about him for an op­ portunity. It was not hard to find. He bad become a member of the Pocahontas Club, an organization having a hand­ some bouse on Great South Bay, L. I., and including among Its members many practical politicians. The Poca­ hontas was ostensibly a fishing club and was devoted to both branches of the sport. Some of its members were expert fishermen and only indif­ ferent drinkers, while others cared little for rod find line, but eonld absorb more alcoholic poison between Saturday night and Monday morning than any other set of men on earth, and took -pride in IL They were an influential •body, politically, and the club-house was a great place to get “pointers." When two or three members had been indulging rather too freely, and began to rake up each other's records, they furnished any,listener with valuable in­ side information as to successful po­ litical methods. Russell was popular in the club and had won the special favor of a few old fellows by listening to their stories of their own greatness. These were the mon who had retired from conspicuous politics because the newspapers had treated them unfairly by publishing the facta in certain interesting cases. They were as much of a power as ever, -though. Behind the scenes they gave the orders and regulated the exits and entrances of other men. Mike Rooney, in partic­ ular, had taken a great fancy to Rus­ sell, and often told him stories of the days "when politics ware worth some­ thing." Rooney was a worshiper of old times, but he did not neglect him­ self in tbe present. He had been an aiderman for a good many years previous to the Eighty-ninth street railway ex­ pose, but had been treated coldly by the "organisation” since that time. He claimed to have been treated unfairly by Tammany and bad gone to the counties, and there received equally bad usage. • “Pre got tired of working for those fellows," said Mike, "and thia fall Pm going to do a little work for Mike Rooney. I haven't lost my grip on the Thirtieth Assembly district yet, and you bet your life on it" Bussell replied that while he never bet on elections ho did not doubt Mr. Rooney's power. He lived in that dis­ trict himself and had had occasion to observe IL "I'm laboring for an independent Democratic candidate for the assem­ bly," said Rooney. “King would get a renomination and an election if Tam­ many was left to run things, but he's weak, and I believe I can down him with the right man.” Rusaell ventured to Inquire bow ho would do, and to his surprise Rooney seemed pleased with tho suggestion. Neither of them gave it much thought at the time, but when politics began to thrust itself into prominence, in tbe fall, Rooney took the subject up serious­ ly, Ray promised, financial backing, and it began to look as if Russell had a chance of going to the assembly. King was sure to be tho regular Tammany nominee, but Rooney carried a good many votes In his ppckeL and he believed that he oould fight his man through. But there was a man named Cunningham who was making a strong effort to get the nomination from the county Democrats and independents who were to coalesce. There was prac­ tically no Republican strength in tbe district. Cunningham felt so sure of tbe nom­ ination that he had ordered a bauquet to be ready when the affair was over, and had invited about a hundred prom­ inent politicians to sit down and re­ joice with him. They had all accepted without regard to sentiment, for a Thirtieth district politician never de­ clines any thing. Rooney learned of this banquet on the day before the primary, and he told Russell that the influence of such munificence might affect the resulL "i'll tell you what we’ll do," said Rooney; "we'll just borrow that ban­ queL" “Borrow it!" exclaimed Hassell; “how?" “We'll send word to the men he's in­ vited that the banquet's to be held be­ fore instead of after the primary. Make the time about half-past five. Then we’ll tell tbe caterer of ths changes In tbe hour. All these people will come At the door, however, he encountered Deering. He had never known of the in venter’s visiting tbe place before. Here was a new source of danger. Could it be possible that Deering, too, was sus­ picious? Another summer came, and wore away, very unhappily for Russell. He was continually pressed by debts and diffi­ culties, and he had no friend to whom he dared confess himself freely, asking tho advice he needed. Indeed, Russell had made no friends among his recent associates, partly because be had drifted into an extravagant and light-headed aet with few attractive men in it, but more because ho was too deeply en­ grossed with his own affairs to permit of a warm interest in others. He con­ tinued to see Ray frequently, but he was too much afraid of tbe old man's irasci­ ble temper to take advantage of the halo that Ray was in reality always ready to There were fewer Sundays at the villa for Busaell than in the previous summer, not because of any lack of invitations but because Rusaell fancied it easier to avoid Alice than to be simply friends with her.

Full crew* from two life-saving stations thiaso of Cap** Henry and Seatick, under command of Captain Drinkwater, ware prumpt<y od hand and began firing Hues to.lhe ill-fated hark. The grins eould not deliver the Hum- so far, though they were repeated­ ly fired. The ship finally succeeded in getting a Hue ashore tied to a barrel, which the »nrf carried to the life-savers. Thu breeches buoy was quickly rigged and sent to tbe vessel, but unfortunately the bark’s crew wen: ignorant of it* use. and the rescue was delayed until Capuin Drlnkwayor, of the ilfo-savlng crew, wrote Instructions, put them in a bottle, and sent It to the Dictator by tbe line eonno -ting the vessel with the shore. The men on board broke the bottle at once, ns could be seen by glasses from the shore, and pro.-ecded to carry out tbe directions. . The first man, was delivered asiiors In eight minutes, aud seven others were res-tied before sunset, four of whom egme ashore In a life boat which was capsized, but the m-n succeeded In reaching the shore, in a half dead condi­ tion, one man having his arm broken. During the entire day the ship ro led and pitched terribly, and made the work of rescuing the uahappy sailors exceed­ ingly diflicult'and slow, as the life line would tighten or slacken In response to the motion of the vessel. Once tho line broke with a man midway to the sin re. and be wa* hauled back to the bark half dead. — The Hue was mendetf aud tho same,man safely landed. The beach was • lined with people who had come from thu country houses and lhe hotel, and to the spec­ tators lhe anxiety and suspense was awful, as they could plainly see tho people on the bark and hear their con­ stant cries for succor. At nightfall there were still nine persons on the bark, and among the number the cap­ tain. his wife, and little child. The captain had urged his wife ai! during the daj to take the buoy and come ashore, but she steadily refused, a* .she would not leave her husband and child, and only one could take the buoy at a time. The wife and child were already greatly exhausted, according to the re­ port of tho sailors At night tbe work of rescue was continued, and tho captain vainly besought bis wife to make the at­ tempt for life. It has been impossible to get the names of the rescued to-niglit, owing to the fact that they are entirely exhausted and all are foreigners. Lloyd's register give* the captain’s name- as Jorgenson. The bark is a com­ plete wreck and went to pieces fast; tiy» sea was tremendous. All that could bo gathered from the half-dead sailors as to the cause of the stranding of the vessel was that they did not know where they were, the sun not having been seen for four days, and the weather so thick last night and thl* morning that they struck lhe breaker* bufore they could see the coast. The life-savers worked all day with great heroism without food, since morn­ ing. The apparently slow progress of tho work of rescue is du* to the fact that a life-boat could not live in tbe surf, and that the guns would not reach the bark; and that the crew could not use tho breeches buoy until they were instructed from shore, which caused great delay. The captain. Just before the ship went to pieces, sprang Into tho sea with his son strapped to his back and reached the shore alive, but the boy was lost, making a total of eight Ilves Tho Dictator was trying to make Hampton Roads, having been fifteen days dl.-ahlcd by hurricanes.

The correspondence con­ sists of two .letter*—one from Baron Fava to lhe Secretary of State; the sec­ ond lhe reply of the Secretary of. Sato, which Is addressed-to the Secretory -of Legation. The statomeuts of Secretary Blaine, If they are sustained, place the Italian Minister in a vary awkward posi­ tion. Tho letter of Baron Fava Is very curt and peremptory, and betrayn to a cousldesable degree an ignorance of the in­ stitutions of this country or a willing­ ness to ignore the existing conditions. Two demands are made, both very per­ emptory tn character. They are: That tho United States shall guarantee to Italy a speedy trial and ebnvlciion of tbe alleged murderers; that the United States shall recognize lhe principle of the right of Italy to indemnity for tho killing of the Italian subject*. The Italian Minister claims that four of the killed Italians were subjects of tho King of Italy. Baron Fava states that tbe United States refuse* to act upon either of these demands, in consequence of which and because his effort* had proved inefficacious, he should leave the United the Stales as soon as possible, leaving 'M A special from Santiago say- During the last ten days President Halmareda'a Government bus suffered terrible blown The Insurrectionists arc gaining be Yt-ry generally known, despite tbe vigorous efforts of the War Department to suppress all news of a nature ' likely to IncrcaaeentliuAiaam among the fricoda of the revolutionists or to dampen the ardor of Ba! maced s'* followers.

Blood flowed in torrents at Iqulquo and Tarapaca. Tho revolutionists began a second bombardment of Iquique. The attack- was so sudden that tbe people had no time to prepare for tho murder­ ous fire which was opened on the town. While tho Government forces were well trained their work did little good, as all their efforts wore more than offset by the concerted action of the land and. naval forces of the revolutionist*? The encampments of Government forces werecompletely destroyed. In tho city al­ most every house which was left stand­ ing after the first bombardment several weeks ago was destroyed utterly. Late in lhe afternoon a pitched battle oc­ curred between the land forces, in which somo two hundred were killed. When night drew bn hostilities were suspended, but on tho following day the fighting was resumed with greater vigor than ever. Throe pitched battle* were fought during the day. Late in the afternoon tho fighting ceased, for there were few government soldiers left who were able to fight Colonel Robles escaped with the fragments of his army to the mountains, pursued by the rebels. The government forces were terribly beaten and at night there was left In Iqulque a mass of ruins and piles of dead bodies. The town was totally destroyed and fully twelve hundred people were killed. Just before tbe bom­ bardment began the consuls of all gov­ ernments represented at Iqulque pro­ tested against the brutality of th^revo* Ip^lonists in commencing a bombardment without giving at least the women and children an opportunity of escaping to a place of safety. But-by far the bloodiest and most mer­ ciless battle occurred at Tarapaca. The revolutionists attacked the city and tho government forces by sea and by land. The firing began early in tho morning and continued for several hours, destroy­ ing 200 people When the firing began the inhabitants made a wild rush for the heights back of the town, but they were stopped by the relentless fire from the land forces. Balmacoda's troops fought like tigers and were met by tho rebels with equal ferocity. The scenes were frightful. Men fought hand-to-hand conflicts by themselvea They — pursued the defenseless into ones tho houses, where . many were brutally cut down on both sides. Con­ secrated ground was not exempt from the ravages of the rebels, for some se­ vere fighting occurred in tho churches, where hundreds of woman and children were praying for the safety of their hus­ bands and brother* Soon after tbe bom­ bardment began sovcral large building* were discovered to be on fire. Hundred* of people who. had taken refuge in’their homes were driven from thorn by the flames, only to be shot down when they sought new places of refuge. Tho cries and heartrending scenes between moth­ ers and thqlr children seemed to have no effect on tho soldiers except to stim­ ulate them to uew outrages, to more devilish action* Tho sight of young mothers trying to protect their little ones added to their thirst for blood. It is said that personal rancor entered largely into the battle Many old feuds were settled forever at the bombardment of Tarapaca The town Is a total wreck. Every prominent building has been lev­ eled to tho ground. Tho number ofdeadl and wounded cannot, of course, be ac­ curately calculated, but it greatly ex­ ceeds 3,000. Many bodies are being taken from burning buildings, and It Is believed that many women and children perished In the flame* At Gan* another battle has been fought Colonel Huarex, the commander of the government troops, was badly wounded and his troops defeated. About two hundrecLand Ufty were killed iu this battle. The last has not been heard from Iqulque by any means. Tho English Consul there says that ho proposes to have something to say about tho whole­ sale destruction of property owned by British subjects. He says that Inasmuch as President Balmaceda refuses to recog­ nize the revolutionists as belligerents, but persists In treating them one and all as rebels and traitors, ho thereby makes his government responsible for a!i damage done to the property of British subjects. Tho consul has made a formal demand for a full reparation, and be says that bo will press the claim at once. Valparaiso Is now completely fortified, and the harbor Is patrolled by several powerful torpedo boats. Tho forts are supplied with Armstrong guns of tho latest pattern, and every approach to the city Is commanded by a raking crotw fire.

A striking illustration of what there w every reason to believe may yet be accoiDpliabed iu this direction was given ut the recent exhibition of the Architectural League in New York City. Bruce Price., a well-known architect, presented for iusfiection on that occasion the plans for a stmejiure 442 feet in height, divided into 32 stories and covenng a lot only 75.-feet square. With the present progress made in combining steel and masonry there no difficulty whatever in tbe way of ooDatructiug such a building a*'the one proposed.

But when that is not the case, piling must be n»ed, and upon this a thick bed of cement concrete laid. Above this bed iron crib work would bedaid, aud u on this the super­ structure would be raised. The gen­ eral idea may lie briefly stated to l>e a system of steel columns and girders supporting the entire floor loid of th? building, and also thu weight of theoutside walls above the twentieth floor.

The New York Tribune reports that a Broadway car ian into the rear end of an express wagon with such force as to tip it com­ pletely over. A little girl of about six years old was on the seat with the driver. The man vw pitched head-first upon tile sidewalk, but la ided ou hi* hands and knees, and received only a few alight braises. The child, who clang to tho tost, fell anderneaih the wagon. Fortunately, the high seat prevented the weight of the track from falling on her, and she was drawn from under a* he stooped hart. . “Oh, no," said the little girl; “my pa;>a wouldn't let me get hurt."

There is still that indefinable something in the deserted rooms that tells of Lhe dread visi or. Suddenly the door ot an upper room opens and a sweet, childish voice says pleading! ▼: “I want my mamma. I’m going to find my mamma.' “No, no, dear," says the nurse with suggestion of tears io her voice, while she furtively wipes her eves; “come with me like a good little girl." “No. I want my mamma.

At two o’clock In lhe morn­ ing, the stratuj of a band woke all strik­ ers on the road from. Scottdale to Brad­ ford, and in a short time I.5nb mt a followed the musicians* path, which was directed to tho J Im town plant uf the IL C. Frick Company. This place was reached at 5 a. m., when tho works were captnted without a struggle, except tho incidental disarm­ ing of Superintendent Rosser, whose re­ volver was flourished in vain. A few workers were struck with stones, but tho body of strikers dispersed* without se­ rious damage. . Some time later .a terrific report In the direction of tho Leiecuring works gave a warning of trouble there and thousands Eitbcred to witness the work of tbe first mb exploded by the strikers. The shock was felt for severs! miles, but its only visible effect was the tearing of a groat hole in the front of a non-union worker's house and tho throwing up of considerable dirt in the vicinity. It Is feared that such work is not over with, however, as the effect upon tho unruly but thoroughly organized Hungarians was ominous. After this the workmen at Leieenring Nos. 2 aud 3 were chased out of the yards and a few only-returned when the excited crowd had departed. Tho few men at the Lei th works were also driven out, though nobody Is re­ ported badly Injured. Trouble It also talked of at the Trotter plant, but this is denied by the operators. The big Morewood plant of the Frick Company also contributed more than Its quota to the exciting events of tho day. This Elant has boon in partial operation, aud as been carefully guarded by deputies, borne 3,000 strikers gathered about tho place, however, and swept tho armed deputies aside as If they had been chaff. Not a blow was struck, not a shot fired, as such a move would have been fatal to both guards and workers in tho face of the 3,ooo determined strikers. After the abandonment of the works by the guard an hour of wrecking fol­ lowed. Tracks, doors, and in fact ev­ erything movable were torn and wrench­ ed aside by the maddened crowd, who only left after tho plant had been muti­ lated beyond Immediate repair. Tho central board of the federation meet* in Pittsburgh, when the strike will be brought up up for Indorsement. At Uniontown Judge Ewing granted a preliminary injunction against all men assembling at the Frick works not em­ ployed by that company. Sheriff McCormick, with a number of armed deputies, left Uniontown on a special train to arrest the leaders tn the several raids. Probably the ugliest feature of the several raids was tho number of women participating, the most seriously Injured man being Pit­ Boss Cooper, who wa* struck again and again with an Iron bar In the hands of an Infuriated woman. Secret meetings were held by tho strikers, who will cer­ tainly prevent the Int-ndod resumption. Them has been much telegraphic cor­ respondence between Gov. Pattison and Sheriff Clawson of Westmoreland County regarding the strike of the cokeworkers and the attack upon the works of Erick A Co. of Morehead. The Sheriff asked permission to use Ao arms of two com­ panies of the national guard to prscect property, bht Gov. Pattison responded that “the civil power to maintain the peace must be exhausted and powerless before the military power can be in­ voked. ” To this Sheriff Clawson re­ plied that he did not want the troops, but only their arms. Gov. Pattison, however. In another dispatch declined to Issue the desired order. tho whole group of States shows*, gain of five-ninth* of 1 per cent • In Illinois tho condition has deterferhowever, being In only sixteen counties, which report an average loss of. 25 per cent, from freezing and thawing.

Should Judges Wear Gowni? No man ever added a cubit to tils stat­ ure by dress. No robe ever enlarged a man's brain, ripened his wisdom, cleared his judgment, strengthened his purpose, or fortified bls honesty. If he Is a little man without a robe, he Is contemptible In a robe. If a man is largo jvlthout a robe, he is simply ludicrous in one. A robe ufed aa an insignia of office Is a reljc of lhe age when tinsel, glitter, and flummery Were thought to be necessary to overawe the common people. And tho robe can' now perform no other func­ tion than that of humbugging the people. A court which Is worthy of tho name needs no such flimsy and ridicu­ lous assistance in order to command tho confidence and tho respect of the com­ munity, and a court which cannot com­ mand the respect and the confidence of tho people without resorting to shams of thl« kind Is incapable of doing any good, is Incapable of protecting the weak from being trampled down by tho strong, and should be wipeout of existence." This The following tabic shows the number age and the American people do not and value of cases allowed by the Bureau want medieval shams. They want light ot Pensions for the week: —daylight, electric light, sunlight. They want rnalltic*; they want charac­ ter; they want learning; they want good Judgment; they want Independence; and they want these frej from both barbaric and aristocratic subterfuges. It is only weak minds that lean upon this kind of bolstcrinv. Our ago is superior to tho middle ages only In so far as K has progressed beyond sham and formalism, lofty pump and hollow mi and dull dignity, and asks how to bo shown things just as they are. I am opposed to pretense and to humbug, no matter whether found In high station or In low, and. in my opinion, If tho American people ever reach a point where they must put robes upon tbelr judges or any other officers in order to have lhe highest respect for them, then republican institutions will be at an end Id this country; for men who can be in­ spired by a gown are but little removed from those who can draw inspiration from a wooden god, and neither are fit to either enjoy or defend true political liberty.—Judge John P.

But In the eresent Instance Ji definitely appears that the Italian legation here is to be continued and left In control of a charge d'affaires That-Indicate* that Italy is not yet ready to sever diplomatic reJation*. The with­ drawal of Baron Fava, so far as the offi­ cial declaration goes, la'to be Interpreted a* meaning that "Italy is not satisfied with the progre** of adjustments be­ tween the two countries touching the New Orleans massacre." It may mean, also, that the Malian Government I* not satisfied with the conduct of Baron Fava In general, as weH as In tills particular Instance, and that advantage has been taken of tho present situation to retire him from the post to which he has so long been accredited, and to replace him with an ambassador who holds closer relations to the new Cabinet in Italy. It Is not to be forgotten that the Italian Minister Ji** been at Wash­ ington a long time, and that his home political affiliation* were in a groat meas­ ure with a cabinet which has recently been displaced. But it is straining dip­ lomatic etiquette to go through the min­ atory process of withdrawing an ambas­ sador's passports In order to secure a change In any mission. That Is not the modern diplomatic usage Whatever may have been the design of Italy, the action of Baron Fava, undea instructions from his government, was a surprise to the administration, as it will undoubtedly bo to tho civilized world. Italy has vent­ ured upon dangerous ground upou an as­ sumption. There Is no official proof that any of the Italians who .were killed In tho New Orleans jail by tho-mob were subjects of tho King of Italy. That claim is only made as to three. As to tho rest. It has boon shown that they were registered as citizen* of Louisiana, and had yoted. If they hod registered false­ ly they had committed a crime atralnst the suffrage of the United States as well as against the lives of some of Its citizens. The question of citizen­ ship is still under Investigation. The State Department has-not concluded its official inquiry, of which fact tho gov­ ernment of Italy has been well advised. Yet, pending this inquiry, and In tho absence of official information, tho gov­ ernment of Italy appear* to have as­ sumed that some of Its subjects have been massacred, and that the govern­ ment of tho United States is accountable for it. Accordingly the government of Italy has done that which in like circum­ stances generally precedes a declaration sador. The Information that Baron Fava had been recalled was at once communicated to the President by tfio Secretary of State. The President and Secretary Blaine have been In conference. The President directed the Secretary of the Navy to order to the North At­ lantic station all ships of the American navy in Eastern waters anywhere be­ tween the Gulf of Mexico and the Maine coast. The following Is a list of the ships and their present station: Atlanta, Tamp-, Fia.; Baltimore, left Montevideo March 22: Boston, Tampa; Chicago, Tampa; Dolphin, Tamna; Philadelphia, Port-auPrin.ce, Hayti; Vesuvius, New York: Yorktown, Tampa.

It was an insane idea, but I felt that whatever happened I must keep my eyes upon him. Now the great fish began to swoop denly changing its tactics. It receded to the most distant wall of the cavern, where, with its head towards me, it re­ mained for the first time motionless. But this did not continue long.

Unknown to the friends and guardian who watched her, hhe sent a letter to her Marie—“adored Marie," aa she called the manufacturer's daughter. Marie was in the proper state of mind to be aroused by the countess' appeal­ ing communication, for, curiously enough, this hoodwinked and abused young woman was still full of devotion to the dissolute countess, called her “husband," and would not be consoled for the loss of her. She therefore at onco got legal counsel and had an ap­ peal filed against the order that had placed the countess under guardianship. The result of the appeal was prolonged court proceedings, and eventually, two or three months ago, an order fcr the examination of Countess Sarolta Vay as to her sanity by the Vienna medical faculty.

He had during that whole period firmly insisted that hls sickness was only temporary, aud that he would soon be out again. Mr. Barnum was without doubt tho greatest showman on earth. Very early iu life he look the measure of sverago human nature and profited by the accu­ racy of hls gauge. He found*it both curious and credulous, and be catered to It accordingly. Nearly forty'years’ago he wrote hl* autobiography, for be was even then famous, and did not scruple to show tho manner in which ho had Im­ posed upon a public anxious to see tho marvelous. Artemus Ward’s pea­ green os, the history of which ho told thirty years ago.’ was a pale reflection of Barnum's woolly boeso, and various other devices with which ho was not unwilling to admit he had amused tin; public withaL The vea-green ox fell Into a Jersey canal and lost Its peculiar color, resuming thereafter, as Ward “explained, agricultural pursulta As he advanced in years Barnum found it more profitable to satisfy ordinary curiosity than to attempt to play upon credulity. The menagerie formed a never-falling source of public interest, and liking for the hippodrome, the ring­ master. the clown, tho little lady who In abbreviate! skirts jumped through thu hoops, the Intelligent dogs, and the per­ forming elephants never flagged. Bar­ num soon came to look upon himself as a curiosity and os such made in a coach and four the circuit of the ring. Ear more attractive than tho footlights, the can­ vas yielded an Immense fortune to tho man who could show what be described as tho greatest aggregation on earth. Barnum bad long been a millionaire, and though he affected public spirit tho Jrail of tho sawdust was over it all. He'had no capacity for politic*, no real under­ standing of great pubMc questions. He was evermore tho public’s obedient ser­ vant, taking the public's cash at tho box-office. First and last he was a show­ man, with something bizarre In hi* char­ acter. He was a man of the ring and the band-wagon. No one in hi* profes­ sion has achieved equal fame or fortune. Ho was master of his art, because he pur­ sued bis profession with undeviatlng ardor and profound knowledge of human kind. Phineas Taylor Barnnm, tho most widely known, unique, yet thoroughly typical American of the time, was born in the little town-of Bethel, Conn., on the 5lh of July. 1810. Hls grandfather, Ephraim Barnum, had been a continent­ al captain in tho revolutionary war, and hls father, Philo Barnum, took turn* at tailoring, innkeeplng and farming. Phineas' boyhood ps."ted uneventfully in h:s native town, where he showed In school and on the farm the trait* of thrift and shrewdness which so strongly marked hls character In after life About 1830, Mr. Barnum became deeply Interested In politics, and, pub11.-ation having been denied certain com­ munication* of bl* to a Danbury paper ou tho dangers of sectarian Intorfcrcnco tn political affairs, with characteristic determination he started. In October, 1831, a paper of his own—tho Herald nf Envdotn. The vehemence of hi* youth­ ful editorial* secured for tho paper a large subscription list at once, and sev­ eral libel suits very shortly, in ono of which be was imprisoned for s^xty days. He continued to^dit his paper from jail, aud the notoriety he acquired still fur­ ther swelled Its circulation. It wa* in 1835 that P. T. Barnum at last struck hl* life’s path. He had heard of the existence of George Washington’* negro nurse, then at the advanced age ot Ml years, and. selling out^ hls buxines* again, ho bought the right to exhibit her for 81,000, and commenced .hi* career a« a showman. Hl* success was immediate and chrirHylng. About this time he obtained control of the defunct American Museum, Now York. Wildly improbable as were the promises held out by his adveptisemonts, indefatigable as he was in devising schemes to bumbug the public for their own amusement and hls profit, tlwre was never a time when hls entertained victims did not gladly acknowledge that they had "got more than their money'* worth out of the show. " A list of the pranks he played with hls patrons, the undreamed of monstrosities he exhibited, would read like the catalogue of tius ships In CLe Iliad. Here wa* to be scon the “club flhat killed Captain Cook," “Niagara Falls with real water," tbe “woolly borse," tho “Feejeo mermaid." the “fish with legs," mechanical toysand automatons. Ho inaugurated tbe “baby contests,” which since have bocome features In fairs the world around. He placed powerful calelnm lights on the top of hls museum, giving an unheard ot illumination ot lower Broadway—pre­ cursors of the electric light* of to day. Of all the adventures with which tho name of Barnum was ever connected, the most t-uccessful was his engagement of Jenny Lind, the Swedish Nightingale, for a series of concerts in America and Havana in 1849. For these concert* be was to pay tho cantatrlce the then un­ heard of sum of Sl.oiKl a night Bar­ num's gross receipt* from the nlnety-fivo Jenny Lind concerts amounted to about three-quarters of a million dollars. in 1844, during hls first visit to Eng­ land, the great showman exhibited to the British public sixteen Indians, including squaws, thus antedating tbe recent enterpi*e* of Buffalo Bill. From that time to tho day of hls death Mr. Barnum led all rivals in the show buslno s. Millions of Americans will revere his momory.

Over two hundred and thirty-two trotting and paring meetings are scheduled for the united States and Canada, for 1891.

Then, in a few weeks, society received a shock. Dalrymple was thrown over, and it transpired that the brilliant young widow was betrothed to the count. Dalrymple, culm and self-contained, had nothing to say on the subject of why he had received such shabby treatment, and nobody ventured to in­ terrogate him. Some people believed In the count; others thought that there was a ring of falsity about him, for all his frame was so elegantly slender and supple, for all his mustache was so glossily dark and his eyes so richly lustrous.

There were only about five men in the dining-room as Dalrymple entered it. All of them gazed at him in an unusual way, or had late events led him to think that they did so? At the table nearest him sat Ererdcll, one of tho jolliest. men in the club, a person whose face wot. nearly always wreathed in smiles. ■ “Good morning," said Dalrymple, as ho caught Everdcll’s eye. “Good morning." The tones were replete with mild consternation, anil the look that went with them was smUeloss to the degree of actual gloom.

"My dear sir," said I, "in the fir*t place I want to stay two or three weeks longer, anil in the second place I can't afford your price. I have only 8300 to spend.” The ticket man laughed long and loud. "Why,” said he, "if you stay as long a* that, it'll .cost you nearer a thousand. We get the ’ very lowest prices on everything.” And, indeed, there is a pretty general idea that a thousand dollars is about right. For do not the 100,000 Americans who go abroad annually spend ail of 8100,000,000, including the money that goes for little purchases they do not wish the custom bouse people to sec? But 8300 is enough, and the trip is worth iL I can prove the former state­ ment by carefully verified quotation* from my own expense account Tho latter weeds no proof.

This estimate would ,cover the ex­ pense* of traveling in good, but not exextravagant, style. It takes a little longer to tell how it can be done for 8300. In the first place, the common custom of taking a Liverpool return ticket is expensive, both in time and money. After seeing England thoroughly und getting to the continent, it a waste |uf both to cross the channel again and railroad the whole length of England before setting sail for home. It is bet­ ter to go by Liverpool and return by Antwerp, which can be done without extra expense. Still better, avoid Liv­ erpool altogetlier and take one of the cheaper Glasgow lines, returning by way of Amsterdam. Flrat class passage ticket* by these lines come from 825 to 835 cheaper than the Liverpool return tickets, besides saving a good deal of railroading and one channel passage. Once well across the Atlantic the active warfare begin*. If the traveler has the resolution tfto definitely limit his stay in England he will do well to go by Glasgow and get the long June twilight on the Scottish hill*. Scotland will discourage him, however, as it is the most expensive traveling in Europe. For this reason he will probably not go to Oban, which is interesting but not more so than dozens of places yet to see, but go from Glasgow to Edinburgh by way of Roy Roy and Roderick Dhu county—Loch Lomond and the Trosachs. From Edinburgh a natural route would M: Melrose, Abbotsford, Durhxftn, York—more interesting than Chester and much cheaper—Lincoln, Oxford, Windsor, London. A detour between Melrose and York will take in the lovely lake district, which is well worth while, especially in the rare days of June. From Ixindon to Paris the cheapest way is by Newhaven and Dieppe, and it is also j the -best since it gives a peep at Roucu, ; the most’ interesting town in France, bar Paris. From Pari* one goes to Switzerland direct, and from that won­ derland of snow mountains and manure hsaps down the Rhine to Cologne, with a final peep at Belgium and Holland be­ fore sailing from Amsterdam. The lowest expense of this trip, everything included, may be tabulated something like this, using my own ac­ counts as the basis: •tc*xu*hip ticket#, *ecoad or flr*t 150 Keepsakes, etc.4^ — — Either of these sums leaves enough to take a man back home again, if he live* beyond the Mississippi, and a rea­ sonable allowance of photograph and keepsake money. It’s better not to try to smuggle any clotldng, as it can be bought to quite as good advantage at home; so I have made no estimate for that.

The economical tourist will never take a cab or hack. They axe much cheaper than here, but they count up. To avoid hacks he will carry only a gripsack of modest dimensions.

We have been conscious for some time past that It waa losing ita grip for White.

But upou tbe heels of these Md news we chronicle another fact that a new captain ia al tbe wheel, and a New Wave will commence to roll, and we hope it will be freighted with tbe white-winged messenger of news, and not carry flood-wood from one shore and deposit it oil the other, only to re-ship it at some future time. We wish the new Wave new succeai, that any good paper merits. There are petition* being circulated In different parts of tbe state protesting against the allowing of an appropriation by tbe legis­ lature to supply tbe State House of Correction with the necessary machinery for tbe manufac­ ture of furniture by the convict legislature confined in that institution. There petitions should contain the name of every American citizen, and, especially those who from fear support tbe different measure passed for the protection of American manufacture* and American Jtebor. Of what use ta it to expend large sums of money to get factories to locale in your different cities and villages, and then bring their workmen In direct competition with the convict labor, your state prisons and re­ formatories. It ia true that toe people con­ fined In those institutions should be made to work, but let that work be of such a nature that tew abiding citizens would not call it com­ peting with our laboring class. It has become a notorious fact that under our law* and usages our prison* and reformatories arc filled with a class of people wbo find it more pleasant to work within their wall* than outside of them. It te a fact that requiring them to do tbe most congenial teber, furnishing them with the best beds, selected libraries and furnished rooms, and dishing out all the delicacies of the reason, has dispelled from tbelr minds the fact that they have been rent there for the purpose of punishing them for some crime, but rather that they are to be regarded as toe Prodigal Bon, for when one return* after an absence of a few weeka, the first sight that greets hte eye* te lhe fattened calf ready to aattefy the yearnings of tbe famished (tomache.

Tbe Chairman then presented Gov. Francis, of Missouri,, who welcomed the delegates on behalf of tbe State. He said that the congress marked a new era in agricultural.'commercial and financial history. In tbe early history of the country such dissension and dissatisfac­ tion as dow exists resulted in revolution. The peopl* of tho West .were now crying for relief, but the manner of relief was sought, not by arms, but by this deliber­ ative congress. Different causes were assigned for lhe depression of Western Interests. Let the cause be what it may, the effect was thi same. There was deep-rooted dissatisfaction, and there was unanimous desire that tbe evil of depression be abolished, and that Western Interests be stimulated. Here­ tofore Federal legislation has been in the interests ot the East Congress has been favorable to the creditor class, and the West was a heavy debtor. It was necessary now for the West to stand together, and there were many things, that the West desired, the advocacy of which should be "unanimous, earnest and continued. The West wanted freer trade with Mexico, Canada and South America and ail tbe countries of tbe world. The West wanted ^the Missis­ sippi connected with the great lakes. It wanted improved railways, so that ono could step on a vestibule train at Kansas City and step off It at Buenos Ayres. It wanted a fuller volume of currency. These were things that would relieve tbe distressing condition of affairs, and these were tbings^jn which the West must act together. L. D. Wight Thatcher welcomed the de'egation on behalf of tho State of Kan­ sas. An adjournment was then taken until 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Upon reassembling letters of regret were read from those wbo had been given special invitations to attend lhe congress. Among the number was one from Presi­ dent Harrison, in which ho regretted bis inability to be present in response to tho invitation extended him.

Col. A. G Fish, of Denver, delivered an address upon irrigation. He said UOC,(KXiiOOj of people were kept alive on food raised on irrigated land In Spain, China, Egypt, Russia. India, and the United State*, yet tbe subject of irriga­ tion, although carried on successfully for hundreds of yean, wa* but little underslood. In the trans-MlssissippI country enough* laud was allowed to go to waste that wa* susceptible of cultiva­ tion to suppo’-; whole nations of people. The work of irrigation has already been begun by the United State*. Mr. Pow­ ell estimated that there were l.OOO.UQP square miles of arid lands hi the West­ ern country that could be made product­ ive by irrigation. At the minimum firice of public land, SI. 35 per acre, this and had a value of 5800,000.OCO. At 930 per acre, a moderate estimate of its value when Irrigated, it would be worth 819,200,000,000. Mr. Wickliffe said'he would treat his subject, “Immigration and Settlement of Public Lauds, ” from lhe text. “America for Americans ” “We have been told,“ he said, “that this laud Is broad enough for all, but I submit that the countries of the other world have made it the dumping ground for their paupers aud criminal classes, and I believe that I speak for the whole American people when I say that the time has come when all that must stop. There is enough room for all who want to come here to be one of us, but not a foot of ground for one of those paupers and criminals of the eld world. 1 may feel deeply upon the subject, but I have lately come fresh from a most terrible object lesson, which too c early indicates tbe need of a change of our Immigration law* “I believe that this congress ought to declare that the National Congress should prohibit tbe landing of immigrants who are not willing Io become good citizens. I think this law ought to be put Into such shape that no man who has n< t within a given time filed his Intention for citizenship, which is now altogether too short, and who has not within another given time taken out what Is known as bls second papers, ought to be shipped back to tbe country from which he came.

Let no man step foot upon the soil of Columbia who cannot bring a true bill of moral cieaullness. I am. as you know, a St>te-rlgbu Demo­ crat, but I believe tbe power to make American citfrens ought to be taken from the Mate courts and given to the General Government.

A resolution favoring free coinage was received with applause. A resolution relative to immigration was loudly ap­ plauded. and the resolution which balled with delight the burial of all an'moslties between the North and South was greeted with great applause, aud, upon motion of Major Warner, of Missouri, was given three hearty cheer*.

The question with electricity is we do no^ yet know what its peculiarities are and what It is capable of doing. I should not be surprised to see it adopted in onr Atlantic passenger ships almost at any time, but there are certain problems to be solved in electricity be­ fore we can use it in big steamships as a motive power. We must know that it is safe. That is the very important question that has not yet been *atisfactorily answered. We must be able to secure it at a reasonable expense. I don’t suppose that any of the great steamship line? would hesitate at a few hundred thousand dollars on every ship, but the coat of the original plant is not the thing they would hesitate aL.

We expect she will eclipse all previous records. The emperor of Germany was shown over the Prince Bis­ marck the other day by the representa­ tives of our company in Germany and he expressed great delight with the vessel.

It will have twelve thou­ sand tons displacement and the engines will have sixteen thousand horse power. There will be five docks con­ structed solidly of steel and teck wood, the upper decks end­ ing in strong turtle-backs at tbe bow and stern. One new ship will have twin screws nnd its entire working machinery will be duplicated. It is not necessary to say that the work­ manship on this latest addition to our fleet will be the finest in the world. AH the machinery is built with an excess of strength actually required. The oylinders will be of extra large size, fifty, seventy-six and one hundred and eleven laches in diameter, with a seventy-sixinch stroke. Particular attention haa been paid to the reversing gear, which is extra rapid and noiseless in its action. The comfort and elegance that will be displayed on the Prince Bis­ marck will surpass anything yet offered on any Atlantic liner. The large and luxurious saloons, the ladies' boudoirs, music, smoking and staterooms gen­ erally are being fitted up in magnificent style.

' Iu former ages, when men were more ot the mercy of the elements than they now are, the great masses of popu­ lation were located in warm countries. They swarmed in the lauds where they needed little shelter end little cloth­ ing, .while the cold northern countries were thfnly populated. In the present age, when men may make a tropical climate for themselves within four walls, when warm clothing is abundant and easily obtained, the centers of ]>opulation are found on what may be called the colder half of the temperate zone. Some figures recently issued by the Superintendent of the Census show in an interesting way the distribution o: the people of the United States with regard to temperature. 1'he mean annual temperature of th* United States,excepting Alaska,is fiftythree degree* Fahrenheit, and the fig ures show that the part of the country where this is the actual mean temper­ ature is the center of the greatest density of imputation. In other words, tire grea’est density of imputation centers between the lino where tbe mean annual temperature is fifty degrees and the line where it ie fifty-five degrees; and a* one goes north or south of thi* line, to a colder or a warmer average, the density of I'Opntation rapidlv dimiuishei.

His buggy was smashed aud he wa’s thrown to the ground.' He was finally overpowered aud taken to tho station. As the car kept qn its way the small crowd sent only a few stones a* a parting salute. A car which had been lying at the river front all . day was then started up the hill. Tho word was quickly passed, aud In a short time about fifteen thousand people packed the broad, avenue from the north side of Jefferson avenue to the river.

The man was- dragged from his feet and pulled all tho way across the street. But hu held on, ran the horse* into a buggy aud stooped the car. Iu the meantime a number of buggies, trucks, ct'., had been run across the track. The dozen policemen on the car tried to remove them but could not.

A ferry­ boat coming into tho dock Just that mo­ ment prevented them carrying out their design. At this point tbe crowd was charged by a force of police and clubbed unmercifully. Revolvers were drawn, and for a few moments it looked as if there was to bo bloodshed, but the police presented a sturdy front and effected some arrest*, which quickly quieted the crowd considerably.

Tho end of life is a solemn reality, and one that is always'imprcssed upon us with something of startling effect. The lifeless form lying before us, with the hands folded silently over the heart, is an object lesson whifh will not pass unnoticed. It may be tho stranger that has dropped in our midst: his name is unknown to us; we. are in ignorance of whence he came or whither he was going. But we lift the hat in respect for the motionless clay, and set to wondering whether or not there are hearts throbbing with love for him in some distant Jjome and that will bleed when, after long waiting, his footsteps are not heard upon the threshold. It may l>e the friendless pauper who has dropped out of tbe line of inarch, but he was a mart, and we feel as we look upon the cdld, white foce that after all he was a brother. But when to the solemnitvi of dying is added the wretchedpesa of friendlessuess, dying seems doubly sad. Wo have seen the votary of vice fall beneath tho weight of his own sins, and pass «ut bf life with no eye to drop a tear upon the plain casket und no lips to speak his name with loving reverence. It i-t an unutterably sad ending of the day of life, and' never fails to arouse in the thoughtful mind the Irolief that one of the higheot duties which a man owes to himself is to make friendship for himself. The man who neglects the possibilities of living, who covers his intellect with the mud and gloom of dissipation: who shatter# his charac­ ter and noisons the friendship that might exist for him, while committing u sin against ,his Creator and society, commits a greater sin against himself. But for the kindly words ih'at are spoken, the warm groupings of the hand and the loving attentions, life is a dreary waste: and ho who makes such.a waste of life is like a man who should go into a garden laughing with fragrant bloom, and tread the flower beds into wretched ruin. Life is so grand,,character so beautiful, manhood •so divine, that he who does not appre­ ciate thorn is a foolish man and a crim­ inal against his own best interests.— Hold by Ellquetts. A good story is related by the Wusliington Anthropo',ogiat. It Merna that at official and di|domatic dinners there is sometimes difficulty in determining whose duty it is to rise and break up the entertainment. When Dom Pedro, the Emperor of Brazil, was entertained at the White House, he had been told by a confused Senator that it would be expected that he, the Emperor, should be the last of the guests to depart. The President’s wife, however, in­ formed her other guests that they would be expected to follow, not precede, the royal party in leaving the house. The result was that no one dared to go for fear of a breach of etiquette. But at 3 o’clock in the morning a tired wo­ man pretended illness, and the deadlock waa broken. Great is etiquette, but common sense ia sometimes allowable. De. Barros says that town life loads to degeneracy on account of the bad air.

A farmer- living near ML Clemens has a number of very shrewd hens. Some time ago one of them laid an egg while on the roost It broke as it struck the floor and the othei^of tho flock con­ sumed it.

He was neither killed nor drowned, but he got real wet. and either when he left the tree or when he landed he struck a snag, and split his nose very neatly and completely, from ridge to base, besides tearing out the partition between the nostrils. The nose is now in dry dock for repairs to its damaged low, and Will declares in very forcible language that the wood­ peckers can hatch out their eggs in peace hereafter as far as he is con­ cerned. , Angus McDonald was seriously in­ jured at his saw mill east Hastings, Wednesday morning. He was trying to throw on a belt, when his arm caught and he was drawn over the shaft, thrown violently to the floor and seriously bruised, although no bones were broken. He was uncon­ scious for several hours.

Of course everybody knew that no ordinary fakir would be able to do business in that manner but the error consisted in be­ lieving the fellow to be “Old Hutch," the grain speculator, and in thinking that he was spending his vacation showering blessings on the people. Later reports show that “Old Hutch” is still patronizing Chicago saloons.— Charlotte Tribune. NOTES FROM THE SCHOOLSEdited By The Senior Claes. Bernie Buck and Cleon Demaray are away visiting.

At 10:30 o’clock the Pueblo steamed out Into tbe bay from Broadway wharf'and was soon followed by the warship Charleston, the Govern­ ment steamers Rush aud Marono carry­ ing the Federal officials, and the revenue cutters Rush and Corwin with the Cus­ tom House officials As the Pneblo passed these vesscFs, which hod formed a Hue about 300 yaTd* apart, a salute was fired, and tho band, which bad been sta­ tioned on the Pueblo, played a patriotic air. After the Government vessel* had swung Into the lino other steamers and’ craft conveying unofficial excursionists made haste to follow, and. with the white sails of tho yacht* skimming the scene, tho pageant, from a marine point of view, had never been excelled on tho Bay of San Francisco. About 3 o’clock the Pueblo headed tor the Union Iron Works. Tho vessels which had been lying in thoktream wait­ ing for her got under way and followed in her wake, making a marine procession several miles In length At the Union Iron Works tho Pueblo was received with tbe blowing of whistles at tho factory and on al! steam veesel* lying there. The cruiser Charles­ ton. which had followed the Piesident s steamer all*day, anchored a short dis­ tance from the Pueblo. The President was taken off In a tug and paid an offi­ cial t i»»lt to tho Charleston, being re­ ceived with a national salute wheji he boarded tho vessel and also when he took his departure By this time the bay tor a mllo lu every direction from tbe Union Iron Works was studded with vessels of every description, upon the decks of which there were fully 20.000 people, who had como there to witness the launching of the armored coast de­ fense vessel Mont'rey. in addition to those on vessels there wqge probably forty thousand people who witnessed the launching from the shore. Every housetop and street and every hillside overlooking the Iron works yard as well us the yard itself was lit­ erally covered with people. Never was there such interest taken or such en­ thusiasm displayed at any similar event in this part of tho country. On the shore and on the boy there was a perfect sea of flags and bunting, and for some time before the launching occurred there was a continuous screeching of steam whls- ; ties, to which was added the music of a score of bands on excursion steamer*. A small platform had been built around the bow of the vessel, and on this were th* Presidential pa^y and other distinguished guests, and also a band from the navy yard. At 4:30 Mr*. Harrison pressed an electric button, which sent the vessel down the way* The navy yard band Dlayed a national air as she glided Into the water, and im­ mediately there burst forth thi greatest noise from steam whistles, to which was added tho thundering sound of the Charleston's guns as she fired a national salute; cheer after cheer also arose from shore and from the vessel*. Tho launch was entirely successful. The President and party then returned to the I’alace Hotel. When tbe Presidential party arrived at San Jose a national salute was fired and a large crowd gathered at the stat.on cheered lustily. The visitors were escorted to the Hotel Vendome, where an address of welcome was made by Mayor Rucker, and responded to by tho President as follows: v by this large outpouring uf ray which rhlch go to our rt~»t wlx-n G<«1 shall cau ie full iwnr»nw tlrat Hl« favortog ice will follow u*. nod that In your children valor and nocriflee for the flag will nuaifmt tbenow!*<**.

Tho great pan* American excursion train was retarded as be ng the acme of perfect’on, but that madc-its pilgr mage a year and a half aso. and there have teen many important improvement* since that camo' to a close. First in tho string o! five cars is the combination baggage, smoking, and library-car. Aztan. upon the forward panels of which is inscribed in large gilt letters: "The Presidential Special" In one of the corners nearest the engine Is u perfect incaude.'cent electric light plant, with a noisy little dynamo In fre­ quent operation. In the Fame compart­ ment the baggage and a re-erve sunk of -supplies is stored away, all in the most 'admirable order and looking as lltte like the ordinary everyday baggaio c*r as could be easily imagined. A narrow doorway, generally occupied by a swinging door, separates tho bag­ gage section from the smoking-rpom and library. The upholstery is of olive plush, and tho furniture Is oi a charac­ ter that cannot fail to contribute to tho comfort of tho«i mortals who ’are priv­ ileged to use It Two bookcases, one on each slde of the car. contain a coupje of hundred standard works. And beneath each of the caws Is a desk and a supply of writing material. Hctwecn*tbe cases and alongside of the clock la an electric screw-fan which faces a twin contriv­ ance at the opposite end of the apart­ ment: these, when in op-rat on. will keep tho atmosphere fairly clear and reasonably cool. "Colorado" Is the name of the dining­ car. and a more nearly perfect creation In the shape of a restaurant on wheels could not easily bo found The furnish­ ings of'.the dining-car proper are su­ premely (esthetic Cleanly waiters, clad in spotless white raiment, are not least among the attractions. Tho kitchen lacks nothing, and Is presided over by one of the most experienced Afro-Ameri­ can chefs. Next the commissary headquarters Is the President's car. the “New Zealand." So far as the upholstery of tho main In­ terior Is concerned, this Is probably the least attractive subdivision of the train. The piush Is n dull variety of blue, and the curtains are seal brown. Here and there newspaper representatives are quartered. But beyond the somberly comfortable­ appearing drajcrcs Is a traveling para­ dise—the drawing rooms occupied by tho President and Mrs. Harrison. The apartments, which are en suite, are models of artistic taste. All the wood­ work l« enameled in white and decorated with the choicest floral pattern* in gilt moldings, while the scats and sofas are covered with a rich shade of terra-cotta piush. A more pleasing effect would hardly bo possible. The "IdeaL" which Is the car follow­ ing immediately after the Presidential vehicle, differs material.y from the other cars.

Deyo, of Jackson, who Is one i of the largest shippers of horses to | .the eastern market, says that the de­ mand for good roadsters is first class, and predicts a prosperous season for 1891.

Ninety thousand dollars Is offered by the Independence Iowa Association in stakes and purses for the August meeting. This is over 620,000 more than was ever offered by any asso­ ciation. Punishment is rarely necessary for a horse unless he be vicious. In that case you may have a long fight before you against odds of superior strength and endurance. Kindness and patience will accomplish much more than con­ trary treatment. We understand E. L. Parrtab bas been offered 62.50 for hia twi>-wceka-old Ally. Thia may •ccm a large price to tome, but eon*Ider!ng that ahe bas more fashionable blood than any flllv bred In Barry county, the offer ia not large. Blood will tell. The above item in last week’s Horse Notes was rendered funny by acompositor accidentally Inserting a period in the amount offered, which should have read 6250. Tbe offer was bona tide and was made by Jackson parties. A well known horse owner and han­ dler of this vicinity informs us that in the eyes of all reputable horsemen one having a horse claiming for it a long and fine pedigree, when the ani­ mal is not registen-d. perpetrates a fraud and cannot collect the service fee on .the horse. It is a notorious fact that there arc many horses in this section that have not the pedigree claimed for them—In fart they are dunghills, and should not be recog­ nized by fair minded men. If they are so recognized, it works a gross iniury to the reputable men who are lonestly seeking to improve the horses of the country.—Ex. The following Isfrom The American Trotter: Those wishing to see a firstclass entertainment, and at the same time a lesson in “developing the colts," should visit Mr. IL Bartie, and per­ suade him to exhibit his filly, Daisy, not yet eleven months old. This little equine phenomenon was sired by Onmore, dam’s pedigree not, traced, but has the looks of a well bred mare. She is a large filly for her age, well formed, with a hear! denoting great intelli­ gence. Trick horses and ponies there tare in abundance, but it Is doubtful if there is one In the whole country, a filly, the age of this one, that cau equal her. We had the pleasure of witnessing Mr. Bartle’s ability as a colt trainer the other morning. In the first place be turned the filly loose in a large box stall, then calling her to him, looked first at her mouth, then taking a foot hook bad her hold up each foot to be cleaned. Then the entertainment proper began. The filly will shake hands with either foot, kneel, and sit on her haunches. Mr. Bartie will lie down and she will walk back and forth over him. She will run around in a circle, and, at the word of command, will whirl and go the other way; will back around in the same manner, will lie down at the word of command, jump over bare, put her forward feet on a tub and whirl around, will back up to him from across the stall, and to cap the climax, sleigh bells were put around her neck and she danced the Highland fling. All this and more, was done by this little thing not yet eleven months old, and if there is her equal tn this coun­ try we would like to hear from It. Mr. Bartie says he will drive her with­ out lines before long. CHURCH AND SOCIETY. Rev. Blanchard, of Hastings,, will ^preach at the Baptist hall next Sun­ day, at 3 o’clock p. m.

Birth, growth, pjaturity. decay, death—such is the normal history of man. The three periods af life should sustain a( certain proportion to each other: twenty years of growth, sixty years of maturity, twenty years of de­ cay. This .is what might bo counted upon as the ordinary course .of* human life, but for the fact that we labor un­ der a load of ancestral tranKgresHinn* of physical and moral law, supplement­ ed and intensified by our own personal delinquencies and follie*. How nleasant is the picture! Twenty years of happy childhood and youth, sixty years of intellectual progress and achievement, with domestic and social joys, add then twenty years of slow, almost unconcious decay, characterized by serenity of mind, pleading memor­ ies, and joyous anticipations of a great­ er life beyond the grave. Sadly different is human existence as we see it. Wo look with wonder upon Gladstone, past eighty, still vig­ orous iu tody and mind, still strong and wise to* lead tbe great Liberal party ,6f England. We accept three­ score and ten as life’s natural limit, and expect only labor and sorrow if this limit is passed. We are doomed, we think, by our in­ heritance; audio some extent this i* true. But we should remember the law of recuperation. The lorn flet-h Leals; tho broken bone reunites. Diseases tend toward recovery. The wearv toiler rises from sleep strong for new labor*. The wise physician base* his hopes upon this law. ’ And thia tendency of Nature to heal herself may be greatly assisted by careful and intelligent living, so that it is always possible that tlie man of unfortunate ancestry may secure for himself a good old age. and start his posterity upon an ascending plane. Do what we will, however, life must have its end. When the age of decay is reached, hidden changes are going on, the culmination of which is the last great change. The muscles shrink^; the brain shrivels; the nerves lose their sensibility and active power; the arteries, perhaps, become chalky or fatty; the heart is weakened; the cir­ culation enfeebled; and at last the end comes. During this final period, then, we must take thing* calmly ; avoid ex­ cesses of all kinds; guard against exposures to cold; keep up a degree'of mental activity; cultivate cheerful­ ness; and look forward with hope.— Western Rural.

The Ohio-floods are characterized by height, power and suddenness; those of the Mississippi by length of duration. The highest, largest, and most power­ ful tidal waves of tbe ocean fall short, in those particulars, of the great flood waves of the Ohio. Tbe highest point yet registered by an Ohio flood, within the limits of actual record, was made by the flood of 1*884. which registered 71 feet 1 inch at the Cincinnati gauge. The' Ind'ans, how­ ever. have a tradition that ih-re was a flood in 1787 which reached the tremen­ dous height of 100 foet*. also, that thero were high floods in 1774. 1780, aud 1702, the latter reaching CO feet. * Statistics go to show that floods of ex­ cessive height are not to be expected oftener than once In about twenty-five years The unprecedented flood of 1884 following. Just one year and one day, * that of 1883—the highest In half a cen­ tury—presented a strange exception to the rule. The detailed information «onccrnlng tho flood of 1832 Is very meager. Cin­ cinnati at that time contained about 28,­ 000 Inhabitants. As the river rose stead­ ily for ten days, beginning Feb. 18. tho Inhabitants La l time t > flee to the hills which surrounded that city, thus render­ ing the loss of life very small. Tho few remaining pioneers of the Quern City who participated in that flight and as­ sisted in rescuing tho persons and prop­ erty of their fellow-citizens give graph.c Eictares of the cxcUing scenes and alr-brcadth escapes which thou took place. There was scarcely a house In the city which escaped a deep baptism in the lurtild current. Tho terrible flood jf 1883 was caused toy two severe lalv storms, which fell upon the hard frozen ground about its headquarters in Pennsylvania, West Vlrginia and Ohio. Much of this territory is mountainuu*. Thu heavy rainfall, which wou'd have natnrklly born much absorbed by the soil, all rushed down tho steep, frozen mountain sides as from off a nx>f. and emptied Itself Into th- Ohio, with scarcely any hindrance or loss by absorp­ tion. Tbe storm began with the month and continued for practically two weeks The river reached Its maximum height on the 15th of the mon tit The first cities to,feel the devastating power of th » floods were Titusville, Oil City and Pittsburg. There were several lives lost at Titusville. Not only did every city' on the Ohio and Its tributaries euffer more or less, but al so almost every city lu tbe Ohio Valley. The overflow of the Cuyahoga River despoiled nearly two million dollars* worth of property in Cleveland, which is located at its mouth. Al Cincinnati the water covered three whole squares in the heart bf tho city, disabling the engines at the water works, and submerging the gas works. Nut lest than thirty thousand laborers ware thrown put of employ uient by the .flood­ ing of some two hundred and fifty whole­ sale and commission houses and other Industries lying n?arest the river front. -One of the tragedies of the flood was the fa’iing of the Cln•clnnatl and Southern depot Its foundations became undermined and Its walls fell, burying a number of people ■beneath tbem, In a depth of about forty deet of water. . Tho military barracks at Newport, Ky„ opposite Cincinnati, were flooded, and also about thirty square miles of country about tnem were submerged. A recent and reliable writer estimates the damage wrought by this flood al 8<Ju.000,000. aud mates that 1,500 business houses ano 3,70o residences were flooded; that LOW famfiiea were given bedding aud 647 families fumlahmi with coal; that 24.111 people received charily of some kind, and that 3.0U1 pairs of boots bo wield a billiard cuo ar* aware of the time, I trouble and ex pen so of making the ivory spheres? The billiard ball, in its natural state, is the principal means of defense for an elephant. In time the elephant falls a victim to the ventureeome hunter, and he part* with his tusks, which are the mod valuable of all his possessions to commerce. Mont of the tusks find their way to London, which i* the great sales mart for ivory. There, twice a tear—spring and fall— tbe buyers of ivory gather. There are different grades of ivorv, and only the finer kinds are suitable far making billiard balls. The best comes from the small tusks, which are from four to six inches in diameter at the thickest end. The-e are sawed into blocks, each section being large enough to Allow the turning of a single ball. The factories devoted to the billiard ball industry in this country usually receive the ivory in rtiii* shape, the sec­ tions being marked so that the turners know from what part of the tusk each piece come* from, and in thia way can calculate a* to its grain and quality. It takes a long time to produce a per­ fect ball, and only skilled labor is em­ ployed. The exact center of the ball is firs! discovered by means of measurement. The block is then placed in a socket, and one-half of the ball is turned by an instrument made of the finest and sharpest edged steel. The half-turned ball is then hung up in a net for a short while, then the second half is turned, and the ball hung up as before in a room the temperature of which is kept at from 60 to 70 degrees. The roughly turned bill is kept in this position for about a year. Then comes the polish­ ing, whitening, etc. A great deal of hard rubbing is also necessary, as the ball before being used should be near a certain weight as possible, and meas­ ure 2| inches in diameter. It has been found impossible to get two balls ex­ actly the same weight. Very often they will be heavier oa one side than on the other, and frequently they split right through the center. This is due to decay. . In the window of one of the* large manufactories of billiard balls in this city lies a tusk about two feet long. It was purchased some years ago, and while being sawed in two the saw came in contact with an obstruction. It proved to be a rifle bullet, which bad penetrated the elephant when quite young, for the whole inside of the tusk had a decayed appearauce. The price of ivorv for making billiard balls has greatly increased within the past few years, and the demand ex­ ceeds the supply. The BrunswickBalke Billiard Company have offered $10,000 for a perfect substitute for ivory, but nothing thus far has lieen invented that combines the elasticity aud durability of tho ivory ball. Not until after it is placed on the table is the real life of the billiard ball shown. Tbe ]>ores in the ivory may close, and then if the ball is kept in a hot room it is likely to entek. or it mar crack by reason of concussion with other balls. This is one of the groat difficulties to contend against. To overcome this tbe balls should be kept at as even a tem­ perature as possible. When a billiard ’ball is first used it occupies the first rank. A crack may boon l>e exposed and then it is re­ turned to the factory. The nick is shaved off, and it comes back slightly smaller in size. It may then find its way into some second-rate billiardroom. After some more hard usage it is again returned to the factory and comes forth again much reduced in size and probably becomes a cue ball iu popl. ' Afterit is found to be practi­ cally useless for the purposes for which k was originally made, it is bought bv dealers in bone and ivory, and the balls are then turned into bnttons or they are burned and used in the making of ivory black.—-Veto York Hun, WHICH IS THE LARGER?

Porter, Mlntater, Home: Marquis Imperial! by the Marquix Rudinl w*« tolt-sraphed from Rome yesterday, and Rudlnl'k communication which thia Gov, .DJle kddreim«4 to you by tSecretary Blaine, on April 14. It* piruaal produces a moat painful ImpRsUon un me. I wifi not stop to lily stress upon tbe lack of conformity with diplomatic usages displayed In mak­ ing use. M Mr. Blaine 'did not hesitate to do. of a portion of a telegram of mine commutiicalod to him in strict confidence, tn order to get rid of n question clearly defined In our official documenta, which alone pos­ sess a diplomatic value." Tbe telegram «if March 24, concerning whose public use tho Marriuls Bndlni compflilna. 1< the following, which wax quoted in full In my note of April 14 to Marquis Imperial!, Charge d’Affaires of Italy at this capital: Rome. March 24. 1MI1. Italian Minister. Washington: Our requests to the Federal Government arc very simple. Some Italian subjects ac­ quitted by tire American magistrate* have been murdered in prison while under tho immcdlato protection of the authorities Our right, therefore to dqmand and obtain the punishment of the murderers and an indemnity for the victims U unquestionable. I wish to add that t>;« public opinion in Italy Is justly impatient, and if concrete provisions were not at once taken I should find myself in tho painful necessity of show­ ing openly our dissatisfaction by recalling the Hiinfstcr'of bis majesty from a country where ho la unable to obtain justice. RvDun. The Intimation of the Marquis Rudin! that tbe telegram in question was delivered In strict conHdenco Is a total error. A's a telegram exprrste.1 tho demand of tho Italian government It was impossible that Marquis Rudinl could transmit It In strict confidence. As I bare already slated. It was communicated to me In person by Baron Fava, written In English by bls own handwriting, without a suggestion of pri­ vacy, and tbe telegram It-elf has not a single mark upon it denoting a confidential character. I have caused a number of copies of the telegram to bo forwarded to you to-duy in fac simile. Tbe usual mark for Ila tc printing was used by me under four lines, and they appear in tbe copies. You will use the fac simile In. such manner a« will most effectually prove tho error into which tho Marquis Rudlul has fallem, Blaise. It was plain to those who saw Mr. Blaine that ho wa* annoyed by the re­ mark of Rudinl that he had failed to conform to diplomatic usages. The Premier also went so far as to accuse tho American Secretary of disclosing a confidential dispatch in order to get around a question which tho Marquis itftimates had puzzled him in tho pre­ vious negotiations. The Secretary by this reply ha« once more placed the Ita lau Premier in an unfavorable light, and has s[Milled hia attempt to let himself down easy. This dispatch noces-ltatcs a reply from Budlni, and tho opinion among Government officials Is that It cannot add anything to tho dignity of his position or aid in malntainiug tho Italian aldo of the controversy.

A census bulletin gives statistics of peuitentary convicts In each State In proportion to the population. In 1880 out of a population of 50,000,000. the proportion of convicts was 709 to each 1,000,000 of population. In 1890 the proportion was 722 to the 1,000,000. The population of the United States In 1890 was 24.86 per cent greater than In 1880. In 1890 there were 87.88 per cent more convicts than in 1880. This shows that the number of convicts has increased 2.42 per cent faster in a decade than the population. Of the 45,233 convicts in penitentiaries in the United States in 1890, the whites formed 67.62 per cent and the colored 32.47 per cent. Of the 30,546 white convicts, the native born represented 75.60 percent, and foreign born 23.79 per cent, while the place of birth of 0.61 per cent was unknown.. The men formed 96.1 per cent and the women 3.9 per cent, showing 24.64 times as many male convicts as fe­ male. Postage stamp collectors will be in­ terested in tbe fact that the most valu­ able postage stamp in tbe world was sold in London last week. It is a Brat­ tleboro, (VL.)-stamp of 1846, one of tbe small issues by subsidary postmasters which preceded tbe general issue in America. It is of tbe five cent denom­ ination, oblong in shape and buff in color, having the initials F. N. P. The price paid for it waa •1.250. The purcbamr was the well-known Eagliah collector Palmer. The dealer who sold it came by it ia curious way. Hu bought a stamp album from a traveling Amer­ ican for a mere song—a few shillings— and was amazed long afterward, on looking through it to mark it, to find the rarest of all small stamp*. He says it is tbe first and only one of the kind be baa ever seen, though counterfeits are plentiful. A YOUNG MAN’S FANCY.

YOU si fie explorations into t he earth ever undertaken will be car­ ried .out near Wheeling, under the joint auspices of the United States Government and the city of Wheeling. Some months ago the Wheeling De­ velopment company began drilling a well near that city In search of oil or gas. It was determined to bore as far as possible. The hole has already reached the depth of 4,100 feet, within 500 feet of cthe deepest well In the world. In this distance a dozen of thick veins of coal have been passed, oil and gas both .struck, but not in paying quantities, and gold quartz, iron and many other minerals found. The hole Is eight inches In diameter and the largest in diameter of any deep well In tbe world. Prof. White, State Geologist, hasarriver at Wheeling from Washington, where he had succeeded Id getting the government geological survey officers InterestedJIn the exploration, and the result is that the hole will be drilled to a' depth of one mile. Then the government will take up the work under the direction of two ex­ pert officers of the geological survey and drill Into the earth as far as human skill can penetrate. The Idea is to take the temperature and magnetic conditions as far as pos sible, and by means of an Instrument constructed for the purpose a com­ plete record of the progress and all' discoveries, made will be kept. TUNNKL BUILDING. The-art of tunneling may be con­ sidered as having been reduced to a science, as no distance is too great and no material too hard to be pene­ trated if the object sought Is suffi­ cient to Justify the expense. The building of the St. Clair river tunnel, where iron cylinders were forced through the clay by hydraulic press­ ure; was a great advance in the art of building tunnels through certain kinds of soil. The tunnel built under the streetsfof London, where the top of t he arch Is Just below the cobble stone pavemmt, was built without In the least obstructing travel at the place where the work was being car­ ried on. According to the Industrial World, a tunnel five miles long is now being driven through the solid rock under Gray’s Peak, sixty miles west of Denver, Colo. This tunnel, which Is 8x18 feet, is being built primarily to tap the mineral veins in the moun­ tains, which are thought to be quite rich. After the tunnel is complete it will be enlarged and opened for traf­ fic to accomodate an extension of the Utah Central railway, which is to form a through line from Denver to Salt Lake. Thus far about a mile of the tunnel has peen driven by hand power, but a plant of ten Band drills, with Ingersoll air compressors, has Just been put in, and an electric light plant is sottn to follow, after which It is expected the rate of working will be greatly increased. The excavating of this tunnel is through rock alxiut as hard as any that can be found. ----- Sundays ways rushes out pell-mell the instant atructed the sexton to stand in the ves­ tibule on rainy Sundays hereafter and rive checks for the tunbreltas-—N.

Tho actual status of the Itata is not that of a pirate, but an authorized ship upon the seas. She has no flag, no clearance, no charter. Any ship of any nation can seize her. and if she resists she becomes at once a pirate. ‘ The position in which the United States is placed by thu escaping of tho Itata is a peculiar one, bearing In mind the forcible argument which Mr. Evarts and other able representatives of tho United States laid before the tribunal at Genova In respect to tho escape of the “29."afterward the rebel cruiser Alaba­ ma. upon which arguments Great Britain was mulcted in heavy damage*, in that case It will be remembered the suspected vessel got away befote the British au­ thorities had received sufficient In­ formation. as thhy claimed, to war­ rant them in seizing her. In tho ca-o of the Itata the ves»o! was abso­ lutely in tho possession of the United States Marshal, and the responsibility for her escape can not be evaded. It may be a question between the Depart­ ment of Justice and the United States Marshal as to whether proper precau­ tions wore taken to insure the detension of the vessel,, but a* Jx-tween tho United States and tho recognized Chilian Gov­ ernment should Balmaceda be successful In the Internecine warfare now in pro­ gress, there can be no manner of dispute as to the complete liability of tho«Unlted States Government for whatever dam­ ages the Itata uncaptured may be able to Inflict. There is quite a feverish air of expectancy round tho Navy Depart­ ment as to the developemonu of tho in­ cident, and many of the officers on shorn arc envying the opportunities which tho Charleston and other cossels are llkoly to have of brisk service afloat The question of the right of tho United States to take the Itata on tho high seas is not altogether settled. The Slate De­ partment people have searched their authorities and have scrutinized tho facts in the case, and are inclined to doubt tho right Tho whole question arises from a dispute as to the character of the vessel. Wore sho a pirate, a ship tn the service of an enemy to this country, and a vessel of American register engaged In acts in violation' of treaty stipulations, tho caM would be a simple one But she I* merely a Chilian vessel, onga rod in tho transportat'ou of a suspected cargo, a cargo that may possibly be contraband In tho light of tho treaty, aud there is a very great’ risk Involved. No ouo doubts the right of the United States to arrest the vessel in our waters for tho purpose of examination, and her deten­ tion was In accordance with this belief. But now that she has landed tho deputy marshal and sailed atang ou tier business she may prove a hornet that will sting fa after years In the matter of the International law Involved it would seem as though the State DeparUbent is not In entire a< cord with the rest of the administration, for both Attorney General Miller and Secre­ tary Tracy lean to tbe belief that the vessel Itata is legitimate prey. . The freedom of the press depends largely upon whether or not the old man Is peeping through a .crack In the parlor door. By the way, a widow to an ex pressed freedom to marry again.

Convicted of carrying a concealed weapon and sentenced. So pernicious to the administration of Jus­ tice were his doings and methods found that while Judge Roman presided In the Crimi­ nal Court he ordered that O'Malley be ex­ cluded from the court-room. This was during tbe time his prc*ent associate, Lionel Adams, was District Attorney, and It Is a significant fact that the two ludlctmeuts agafat O'Malley for tampering with wit­ nesses were not brought to trial but were nolle pressed by tbe District Attorney just prior to the expiration of hl* term. Then comes an exhaustive account of the secret society known as the "Mafia," exposing its iniquities and detailing ita crimes It Is charged that part, if not all, of tbe slain Italians were fa this country in violation of the immigration laws.

INCIDENTS THAT HAVE LATELY OCCURRED. President arose early, and waa tho only member of tbe party to greet tbe crowd that gathered about tbe train at Te­ hama. He was h>udly cheered and shook hands with all the people within reach. About half an hour later the train drew up at Rod Bluff, whefo a largo crowd with a band was assembled. They gave the President a most enthusiastic wel­ come. Captain Mattock, an old army comrade, introduced him to the people. The President in his sjieech ‘ referred to Captain Mattock, anil alluded to tbe number of Indiana people he had met iu tie Stale. Continuing he said: Stnta. capable of promoting the comfort at your cltUens in a very high degree, and. although already occupying a high place iu the galaxy of Mates, it wllL I am sure, take Mtllutlon. tb0M> sottied and- permanent tilings that live whether men go ur come.

They arrived at Ashland, Oregon, shortly after 8 p. m., and received an enthusiastlo welcome. A special commit­ tee from the Oregon State Legislature boarded the train and welcomed tho President The President made a happy response and also spoke to the crowd at the depot. After a stay of about thirty minutes the train pmied out. preceded by a special carrying the legislative committee and prominent citizens. At Tacoma, VVa*h.» the President and party arrived to the midst of a driving rainstorm.

The party rea~hed Portland from Seattle aud left over the Union.-Pacific for the East When the train left Port­ land the skies wore clouded, but about half-past ton they cleared, and tho re­ mainder of the trip through the pictur­ esque Valley of the Columbia was made tn bright sunlight,.which disclosed the mountains and cascades in all their beauty and grandeur. Ono of the pleas­ antest incidents of the run from Port­ land was the visit of tho President and party to Multnomah Falls. The entire Iarty left tne train and spent several minutes admiring tho slender veil of spray falling 830 feet from a cliff. Tho first stop of any Importance was made at the Dalles, where the party received an enthusiastic ovation. Responding to an address of welcome by the Mayor, Presi­ dent Harrison said: "I quite sympathize with the sugges­ tion of your Mayor that It Is one of the proper government functions to Improve and open to tafe navigation the water­ ways of our country. The Government having reserved to Itself the exclusive control of all navigable inland water. it is of course incumbent upon the Govern­ ment to see that the people have the best possible use of them.

A farmer writes to the Rural World that he hung seed corn in the smoke house and smoked it as long as he did hams, that every kernel grew and not a spear was molested by gophers, mice or blackbirds, while corn planted by the side of it, but not smoked, was entirely destroyed. It would pay to try It. ' Dr. Sherman M. Fowler, of Hasttfngs, was married to Miss Elsie S. Rich, of Hammond, Wisconsin, at the home of the bride, on Tuesday even­ ing of this week. Dr. Fowler was formerly a Nashville boy, and has a whole town full of friends here who will wish him all happiness in his new relations. The south end of Main street and around the turn to the south road has l»een receiving the attention of the street commissioner the past week. The driveway has been moved into the streW instead of across the corner of private property, and the road other­ wise improved. Now a good surface coating of gravel will finish the Job In good shape. The time will soon be here for the spring meeting of the Nashville Driv­ ing Park Assciation. No labor has been spared to make this meeting a success. Programme cards have been distrib­ uted thoroughly for a distance of In miles in all directions. Horsemen have sent for information as far away as Detroit, others from Jackson, Grand Rapids, Augusta, Bellevue and other places have already signified their intention of being present with horses. There Is no doubt but that the entertainment will be first class, and with the new grand stand, with its wide and easy seats, all can be made comfortable. More new stalls are being-built and other Improve­ ments will lie added, so that when the dates, June 9th and 10th, arrive, all will be in shape to handle the crowd and take care of the horses, etc. Fully 3,000 people are expected to be present each day; such a crowd will help the town in many ways. The Association has'been very liberal in prices, (the only way good horses can be induced to comej and taking this Into con­ sideration, added to their other ex­ penses, they feel justified in asking the business men of Nashville to donate such sums as they feel able. A great many already have expressed themselves as ready and willing. To those we will say, a paper will be cir­ culated in a few days and we hope all will respond cheerfully and liberally, as every crowd Nashville gets helps us all.

An election of officers was held and resulted In retaining the same corps as before. Good resolutions were drawn up and approved, being to adopt the Demorest medal contests. An admirable paper by Mrs. H. R.

A paper which needs to be beard to be appre­ ciated was then read by W. O. Lowden, of Hastings, on “Buried Talent in Churches,’’ followed by a question box. At this point the school children were marched in and-seated and given a short and interesting address by Mrs. A. D.

In this matter, we may profit by the ■experience of Great Britain, lor. while tots mighty power ha* the strongest mercantile marine In the world, from which It mav draw recruits for the navy, ft has also training schools for seamen, where boys are regularly brought up to do ship dnty. The largest of these Is In the Greenwich Hospital, perhaps tho <reatest institution. In the world for the 4>eneflt ot aged and disabled sailors. About 3,000 seamen, who, from one cause or another, aro no longer able to fallow their vo-ation, find shelter and rare within the walls of this’hallowed insti­ tution: but its inclosure also contains a -training schoo’, which, from the stand­ point of worldly wisdntji, f« one of the unost valuable school# In Great Britain. The Greenwich Training School has , two divisions, known a< th- I’pper School and the Lower School. While tho general purpose of both are the same, tbe Upper School has a specific •end In view—that of training officers to 'Command the British vessels. Each school.has about 500 pupils Those of ■ the Upper School aro the sons o' officers, ■ nifd are to receive a training to fit them ■ for officers. They aro nominated to the • InstRstion on a principle somewhat -almilar to that prevalent In this country with regard to our Military Academy - One hundred of these cadets aro named •by the First Lord of tho Admiralty. and the remaining four hundred In turn •by various officia l connected with tho Admiralty, with th- Greenwich Hospital. -or will* the trainin'; school itself. Tbe -boys aro taken ata tender age. They ■tnusl b<- between 10 and 11 years, and of oound physique. The Kholasth- qualifi­ cations required are very slight, consist­ ing only In an ability to read and write, -and a knowledge of arithmetic through •the first four rules. The main thing Is .a sound body. It being a maxim with tho 'Officials that, while a strong b<< can be tnadc a passable seaman even If unable to master the higher lines of study, a weakling Is neither good on deck or at toe desk. A general English training is -given, but having an especial reference to the future life of the students. Mathematics Is mode a specialty: geom•etry and astronomy are taught exhaus•ttvoly. but more w.ih regard to practical 'work than to theory. The pupils aro 'taught, for Instance to take observa’tions with sextanta. to work out tho re­ sults of their observations, and are in­ structed in practical and marine sur­ veying. Tbe Lower School has also 500 pupils, who aro. however, selected from tbe sons of seamen and non-commissioned offi­ cers, regard being bad In choosing boys Xor this department to the services of the, rfather. Indeed, with regard to this se-' >lection there Is no specific rule, for when a private seaman dies, leaving a number • of helpless children, sometimes two or three of the number arc appointed to Cfce fxrtvcr School. Tho .«amv physical • eondtiions aro required of pupils hi thia . as In the Upjier -School, but a gr ater latitude Is allowed with regard to age. : for while they may be as young t> years, those ot J2 and even upward. If qUmt conditions aro compiled with, are not refused.

No special qualification, as in ’he Upper S< bool. Is required for admis­ sion, and it is said that a great number -of the boys taken in are unable on their entrance to read and write, but such pain* are taken and such Is tbe method of trailing that the progres* made dur•• lug the-few years they remain is said to be quite .wonderfuL The-boys of the Upper School, as al• ready stated, are designed for officers. and abundant Instances have occurred among their number oLyoung men de­ veloping uncommon talefit More than one voulh who has not yet attained his • majority has been sent out from the Upper School to command a whaler, or -«ven«e merchant ship, and in must cases • toe results of such experiments hays been entirely satisfactory. The Govern­ ment offers every year a number of com■ missions In tho navy as prizes for pro­ s ficlency in the Upper School, and It is be despised. The dally life In both schools Is much alike. At 0 o’clock a great bell rings, when all must instantly rise. and as only fifteen minutes is allowed before parade, tho dressing must be done In a hurry.

Repairing to the play-ground. they form in companies and march to tbe lavatory, where each company takes its turn at tho tank. While some are washing, others are brushing, polishing boots, and putting them generally in good or­ der. so that there Is no Idleness during washing hour, and as soon as all are ready tho band strikes up a merry tune and all march to b eakf&sk After a few minutes of intermission ’•&•' companics form, without music, and repair io tlu- school-room, where, w.th short Intervals for recreation and -refresh­ ment, they are occupied during a large part of the day. In addition to the usual routine of school work, there are lectures on mathe­ matics, on practical optics, there are explanations and illustrations of the workings of steam machinery, and espe­ cially close study Is made of evert phase of geography. No study hi the naval school curriculum Is more carefully taught or more thoroughly mastered. The earnestness with which the youth who Is to spend all his life on the land “bounds" States and cuuntrfes is a trifle compared with the zeal with which in­ struction given him In geography, witn this important difference, however, ’hat while to tho “land lubber" th<- study of the land Is a matter of small conse­ quence, to him who Is to sail over the sea a knowiedgobf itscoasts aud by ways is a matter of vita! imrortance. Hence, the geography taught In the training school is thr geography of the sea and of the coast, and when a pupil leaves that Institut'on he Is able to describe every headland on any frequented eoaat on the globe, to tell what harbors there are on any coast line, what rocks are to be shunned, what sands and reefs to bo avoided, and where light-houses are created for tho safety of seamen.

Tho naval schools have always been extremely popular, and genoral y have had more applicants than there was room to accommodate. There Is u good reason for the preference shown by sea­ faring piep for tho naval renlce. for. although the wages are smaller than are paid In the commercial marine, in eterj other respect the men are better treated, fed aud clothed than on ships devoted to commerce.

His coat is indeed black, but of a black glossier and richer than silk and softer than velvet, while in a semtahade the feathers are tinged with that peculiar color so often seen on welL preserved blue-black bronze. It is verv funny to see those birds bolding, as ft were, a conclave. Ten or a dozen alight on the ground and walk io the meeting place with a stately, erect step, tkeir every movement cool and assured. Then on old bird steps gravely ipto tho middle, and the meeting begins with a series of guttural aud harsh croaks, which gradually swell in vol­ ume until the entire lot of birds have joined in the debate. Along comes a dog, and for him they scatter, resum­ ing their portions when he passes, un­ til the meeting again terminates, and then fly off to the teach and hills. The»e birds are seldom killed, unless it be by some sailor in pure wantonnesa. If’vou examine the bills of these ravens, the peculiar eonstrue Lion is re­ markable. They are a combination of chisel, scissors,'dagger, and gimlet. The bill 'forms an important factor in the raven’s existence, for he has to dig on the beach for qlama, bore tbe hard shell by repeated chopping, and again in oure mischief be will tear aud break anything that his bright anff unerring eye lights upon. The natives from Yukaiat Bay. through the network of islands as far aa Briffsh Columbia, have an ancient legend that the raven was the bird that brought- light from'darknees when tlie world was created. On thi« ac­ count they venerate it. and the totem of the raven is regarded as denoting the most illustrious descended family.

The aclipn is exactly Kimilar to an ordinary pair of sculls. The out­ riggers have a spread of 4 feet 8i Ipcbes; while the slide has an extreme length of 28 inches. Fastened to tbe sculls are two connecting rods, which are attached to a draw ter; the latter slides back and forth, on a rail ns tho oarsman pulls his stroke through and recovers ready for soother. At the end of the cockpit is a* pocket wheel. At the head of the machine is another wheel of the same size and description. An endless chain passes over both pockets. This chain is connected with the draw ter. and the movements of the sculler in pulling through the stroke gives the rotary motion to the machine. Connected with tbe upright shaft is a worm and system of gears. This operates a small dock-faced dial, which registers the distance the oarsman' rows, the same- as though he was row­ ing over a measured course. - On the shaft. connected'With the small dial, is a smaller pulley, having the same num­ ber of revolutions of the worm gear. A belt operates the hands on tho big dial, which is constructed of canvas cloth, and enables the spectators to witness tho exact position of the oars­ men in the contest. On the big dial are two bands like the hands of a clock. These hands are connected with each machine, and as the oarsman rows through the stroke the hands travel around the surface of tbe big dial, representing very dosely the ex­ act motion of a lx>at going through the water. Even the rocking movement which the ground swell causes is clev­ erly depicted. Patents are now pending for an eight-oared machine, as Mr. Kerns claims that he can build the machine for either single, double, fonr, six, or eight-oared crews. The Harvard Uni­ versity Boat Clnb has ordered an eightoared machine. Tha most essential feature of the machine is found in the fact that the crew can be got together and tetter work done than under the ?ld style and form.

It is a landmark 1 they will not willingly part with, al­ though but a fow of them have any­ thing in common with tho strange peo­ ple who built it. The temple is a great point of at­ traction, It stands on a high hill a little to the west of the liver, and is built of .stone. It is aliont eighty feet long and sixty, broad. . Tbo walls are fifty feet high and are of a yellowuh tinge. On the front of the* building one .sees this inscription: “Howe of tho Lord, Built by tho Church of Christ in 1834." The interior of tho temple ia unlike that of any other place of wor.»hin in the country, and prob­ ably ijs likoIms no existence outode of Mormon cities. Leading from tho ves­ tibule are two doors* that open into1 teporate aisieiL one for the men and the Other for tlfe women. Two Latin inscriptions are still plainly visible, bnt these attrset less attention than the odd anangemeut of pews. At either end of the assembly room is s pulpit, built up in four tiers, where the twelve priests eat. On the front of the pulpit are letteis denoting tho titles of the high priests. The sec­ ond story is practically a repetition of the first, and above this is tho old Mor­ man school loom. Here are to be seen tbe very blackboards upon which Prophet bmith is said to have traced letters for tho children of new con­ verts. It is proper to state, however, that no writing of the prophet's is dow visible. The temple tower rises far above the masrivo walls, and is visible for miles around in all directions. From the shapely doi»e a magnificent view of a grand country is obtained. Farm houses to the west, south aud east ap­ pear in numbers, while to the north Lake Erie stretches in vast expanse to the horizon. It is yet early spring iu this section of tho country, but already the white sails, some scarcely visible from the dome of tho temple, show that lake commerce has begun. The Latter Day Saints are confident that Kirtland will again become the Zion it was a half century ago. The ground upon which the temple stands is to them as holy ai earth ever gets.to bo. even in the eyes of people of stronger belief. It is still in the^iands of the Mormon church, or rather in the lomds of a de­ scendant of Joseph Smith. It is e m­ phatically a product of the “first Zion." for the very stones in the walls, the timbers and the shingles, were obtained iu Kirtland. Mormon converts quar­ ried the rock from tbe ledge along the river, and Mormon han'is hewed the timber and mixed the mortar that went into the building. At the present moment the Salvation Army has uo jess than 9,34U regular oflicors, 13,000 voluntary officers, 30 trainieg homes;'with 400 cadets, and 2,834 corps scattered over 32 different countries. In England alone it has 1,377 corps, and lias held some 160.000 open-air meetings. Thia represents a part of its religious work. Betides this it has in social work 30 rescue homes. 5 shelters, 3 food depots, aud many other agencies for good. It be­ gan in the labors of a single friendless dissenting minister, without name, without fame, without rank, without influence, without eloquence; s man poor and penniless, in weak health, burdened with delicate children, and dit-owned by his own connection: it now numbers multitudes of earnest evangel­ ists. It began iu an East End rookery, and in leas than twenty years it has gone “from New Zealand tight round to Ban Francisco, and from Cape Town to Nordkoping." It has shelters, refuges, penitentiaries, food depots, sisterhoods, and brotherhoods already established in the slums. It has ele­ vated thousands of degraded lives. It has given hope and help to myriads of hopeless and helpless outcasts*. It has proposed a scheme which, in spite of square miles of damp blanket and oceans of cold water, has received the sympathy of some of the bent and highest men both in church and state. I think that even the bitterest, the most unjust, the most cynical, and the most finical of the laymen aud clerics who have written to traduce aud exe­ crate it might wish to God that in the life work of any one of them they had done one-thousandth fraction of' good « mparable in any one visible direc­ tion to that which has been wrought by "General" Booth.—Harper* Magaxine. retains his foodseas for traveling, BASE-BALL' CURVES.

Young McCartliy was at work re­ pairing the roof of his father's barn off Boylston street, which abuts on the villoge brook. A- platform leads from Mr. McCarthy’s house to tho top of the barn. Tho child walked along this platform to tbe roof, aud before he was noticed fell into tbe brook, a distance of about twenty foot. The water was about three feet deep, and the current was quite strong. The child’s cries attj acted McCar­ thy’s attention, aud, realizing the situ­ ation, he jumped from the building to the Boston aud Albany Ifailroad track. In order to save the child's life he had to act promptly, for the arch, where the brook enters the tunnel, was only 10U yards away. McCarthy ran down the track and reached the culvert just in time to jump into the brook and grasp the** little one, who was being carried along to certain death. By this time a large crowd bad col­ lected, and every one was loud in the prahe of McCarthy’s courage and pres­ ence of mind. I lately made two shooting trips tn tho jungles of Jpwer Burznah, and each time in the midst of the greatest hardships. The forest scenery had tho power to force itself upon the no­ tice as seeming each day more and more improsKive and magniticent. At such times both the silence and the strauge round* of the jungles, each in their different way. combine to af­ fect the sforisman:' the occasional weird bootings of the monkeys in the treetops: the distant flap, flap of au elephant’s ears breaking in upon the Eenoet stlllrfoss as yon approach the erd, dr perhaps, instead, tho pennytrumpet-like.-squeak which announces its proximity; and, a* the day wears on, tho stillness is suddenly broken in upon by the vrhirriu'g and soon almost deafening sound with which with one accord the innicts revive after the heat of the afternopn. All these influences combine to produce an effect which those who have not experienced them will find difficult toiniagine, and those who have experienced them must find hard to desc: ibe.

She answers by holding high in her loving hands tho child. He is gone, aud forever. We see them all as they march proudly away under the flaunting flag's, keeping time to the grand wlljl music of war; marching down the streets of tho,great cities, through The towns and’across tho prairies; down to tbe fields of glory, to do and‘to die for the eternal right. We go with them one and ail; we are by their side on all the gory fields, In all the hospitals of pain, in all tho weary marches. We stand guard with them in tho wild storm and under the quirt stars. ' We are with them In the ravines running I with blood—in th'* furrows of old fields. We are wish tlmm between contending hosts, tfnablc to move, wild with thir»L thu life ebbing slowly away among the withered leaves. We see them pierced Tiy balls and torn with shells In the trenches of tb't farts, and In the whirl­ wind of the charge, where men became iron with nerves of steel We are with them In tho prisons of hatred and famine, but human sjwe.h can never tell what they endured.

Many thousand rare books, prints, and pictures am gathered within the gray walls which once withstood the Powders and washes fdr the teeth should be used, with great care. Re­ garding them, especially, the well worn but pertinent caution to beware of strolling vendors applies with tbe deepest import-. Every one has a de­ sire for white and beautiful teeth, and tbe itinerant wbo boasts loudly of the power of his preparations to “whiten tbe blackest teeth to look like ivory in one minute!" catches the popular ear and sympathy an the spot. There is nothing remarkable iu the fact that what be claims cau be dcmoi.-stroted. Any chemist or apothecary can concoct a preparation which will <io all this— and more. If med but a short time it will destroy the enamel, and with it. of course, the entire set of teeth; since the phenomenal result L« and cafi be reached only by the destruction of a small portion of the outer surface of the enamel. The result is the same w hether the agent be wash or powder, since the latter simply contains tbo chemicals of the former in an undis­ solved form. All strong acids or alkalies should be avoided in tbe month, aud if there ia a doubt as to tbe compo­ sition of any preparation in this re­ spect, let it’ be tested with a bit of litmus paper. This paper can be ob­ tained ot any drug store, and is iu two colors—blue ‘■'and red. The blue if dampened with an acid solution, will turn red. arid the rapidity and intensity of the change will indicate the acidity of the solution. The red indicates alkali by changing to blue, in the same manner* M Tooth powders, as a rule, should be soluble and elightly antacid. There in a class of insoluble powders which are of the most dangerous nature, of which jwwdered charcoal is a notable exam­ ple. These consist of fine sharp par­ ticles, which luring pressed by the bru-h between the teeth and gums, or lodging between the teeth, may cause tho most'serious results, even to the destruction of the gum.-, or the cement. The nse of the brush in connection with powders, washes or other treat­ ment of fh« teeth should be gentle. Bleeding of the gums is always a dan ger signal. It show a that the akin has been broken,, inviting the absorption into the system of any jqisouous or foreign matters which may be present in the mouth. If the gums are very tender a soft brush should be u*ed and used very gently, till thev have hard­ ened sufficiently to withstand more vigorous treatment.

MICH., FRIDAY, JUNE 12, 1891.NUMBER 40 BUSINESS DIRECTORY OUR AGENTS send them off, but when they did get away the start was a fine one, all hiring in line. The line wits broken on the turn however, and In a few sec­ onds there was a string of colts all around ! he track, Albert being in the lead, with Alslna at his wheel, while the rest were trailing at great length. The race was between Albert and Alslna from this time on, and a very pretty race it was, there lieing at no time twu lengths between them, and the finish was very close, Albert win­ ning by a neck, with Fred W. third, Chief fourth, and Robert W. fifth. Time 2.5&L The second heat was simply a repe­ tition of the first, from start to finish, and the time was a quarter of a second slower. There were three starters In the free-for-all trot, vlx: "Ripple," owned l>y Frank Noble, of Grand Rapids: "Lady Stick fast," owned by Chas. Wright, of Grand Rapids, and "Eli," owned by Mr. Bldlac, of Hastings. Of course It was a sure thing that "Ripple" would get first place In this race, as she is one of the finest and fastest horses in Michigan, having a record of 2.17, and the three heats were a procession, with Ripple first. Ell second and Lady Stickfast, who gave a very fair exhibition of running, third. The time on the first two heats was 2.421 and 2.424, hut on the third heat Ripple was let out a little to beat the track record of 2.36, which was made by Barry Golddust. She didn't have to work very hard to do it, but she gave a very pretty exhibition of ’ trottingand finished the half in 1.14: she was then let out another notch, • :and as she came Into the stretch on the last half everybody was on .their feet the better to see the flying ani­ ; mal finish tbe mile. Not a break nor a skip did she make, but at a terrific pace came under the wire, amid a :storm of applause, in 2.26. giving the track the best record in. Barry or Eaton counties. This finished the 1sports, and the crowd soon dispersed, feeling amply repaid for the time and money -spent to see one of the most 81easant racing meetings ever held in entral Michigan.

'When they had thus brought the train tc a •tandxtll! they found that there were several German and English tourlfU among the pa>*rnger*. One of them wa* a banker of Berlin. Tbe brigands have demanded £40,000 as ransom for the captives, and Chancellor von Caprivi has telegraphed to Herr von Badowitz. the German Am­ bassador there, authorizing him to ad­ vance this amount. The remaining pas­ senger* were despoiled of their belong­ ing? and were then left alone. The place where tho act of brigandage occurred lies between thl* city and Adrianople. The baud which made theattack on the train numbered thirty­ men, led by the noted robber Anaatasius. The brigands first seized the watchman on duty at tbe railroad station, and when they had prevented him from giv­ ing an alarm they set to work and tor® up the rails for some distance. They set no warning signal for the engineer of tbe train, but allowed .the car* to dash on to possible destruction. When the Eastern express reached the spot the engine tumbled over on iteslde. dragging with It the tender, a baggage-car. and al! tho third class passenger coaches. The first-class passenger car* luckily did not follow the rest of the train, but re­ mained safely on tbe road. When the train was thus disabled the brigands rushed forward, uttering loud yells and brandishing their guns in amost threatening manner and boardea tbe cars. Several of the passenger* re­ sisted tbe attack, but the brigands replied with a volley from their guns and dangerously wounded one of tho mon who sought to repulse them. The outlaw* finally overtame the occupant* of tho cars and proceeded to plunder them, stripping the travelers of all their valuables and looting their baggage. When the brigands ended their work of robbery they seized four of the passen­ gers in the first-cla‘s car* and also tho engineer of the train and then started with their captives for their rendezvous iu the mountains. The men carried away by the outlaw* were: Oscar Greger. Herr Israel, is banker of Berlin: Herr Maqucl, a land­ owner of Slegelsdorf. Bavaria: .Oscar Kotysch of Zorbig. Prus«lan Saxony, and Freundlgcr, tho engineer of the eastern express.

The entire male population of the •Continent Is practically at the service of the governments, as tho system of Conaerlptioa as practiced In Europe is so severe that it Is practically Impos Ible to •elude military service In England alone <s tho service voluntary, nor are any pro-sing Inducements offered to recruit tho English army, but >o grn.it is the number ot the unemployed In tho British Isles that, with low wages, the ranks are (generally full. Ono feature of the compulsory military service, as seen in the various countries ■of Europe, is the groat semi-annual dis­ play known a* the spring and fall cam­ paign. The maneuvers which are classed under tho name of campaign are really •tactical evolutions of armies. Vast bod­ ies of troops drawn from the camp.* of instruction, from tho garrisons, from tho fortresses and military posts, arc put in •the field, marched to and fro as though in actual war, and practiced in every •duty which would be demanded of them were hostilities a-tuaVy In progress. The maneuvers of ipost European armies -cover a period of from one to four wc-ks. The troops go into camp, live in the open -air. whatever the weather, and In all respect* save that of bloodshed, the nanouvers resemble an actual campaign. Although sometimes protracted, the riimlc campaign seldom continues longer ‘.ban a week, and Is planned with rofersnee to the possible movements of an imaginary -fpe. A theory of tbe rampa'gn Is drawn up before the evolutions begin: an enemy is supposed to haw In­ Traded the country and to be marching In one or more columns toward some strategic point that must be protected. The defensive army I.* marching for th« purpose of protecting both the country and Its railway communications and •with the* • matter* hi view tho duties of both officers and soldier*'during such a campaign are by no mean* light. All th operations of actual warfare, saw real bioodsheJ, are carried on. Homo­ times die forces aro divided into two •bodlqs ot» ■ of which is supposed to bo ■the aUa>'ki”g army, the other the at my retnain there long enough to destroy It were the warfare real, a not! e Is jx*ted Un, "This bridge has been burned." When a cavalry force reaches the rail­ road, and is there long enough U» tear up the rails and destroy, tho ties, a p acard Is posted, “This railroa I has been destroyed," and neither bridge nor road can in fairness bo used by the opposing army. Tho stream must be forded or a new bridge built. If the defenders aro moving forward by rail they must alight nt tbe jjoint whore the track I* supposed to be torn up and pro­ ceed forward on foot. In every respect, therefore, the spring and fall maneuver.* of tiic Eurot>ean armies are made as closely as possible to rcromble tho actual condition* prevailing during a war. But the maneuvers aro not confined t.j ofieration* in the field. In order that the soldiers may be accus­ tomed to every detail of their business, siege operations are undertaken, one division being supposed to be shut up iu a town or city, the rest of the force b<sieging it then- Works offnnsivo and defensive arecro •ted. gun* are mounted, assault* arc made, sorties carried out, and the skill and Ingenuity of the com­ manding officers on both sides are exerted to tho utmost, each to outwit tho other. Sometimes the besiegers are successful—that is to sat. they place tho besieged Ui a p »sition that they can neither tight to advantage nor fly. Sometimes the besieged manage, through an oversight on the part of the besieg­ ers. to escape entirely, which is, of course, much to their credit. So great I* tho intoro<l taken in this mimic war­ fare that It lacks but little of tho excitemoot of n rcarcampaign. • The expense of playing at war on th s gigant’c spafo is enormous, for some­ times, as in the Russian maneuvers, over 300,000 men are In the field, and savo in the cost and trouble of burying tho dead and caring for tho wounded, the maneuvers involve all the expense of actual war. Transportation for these discharge of a gun may kill one or more mnn; tho fail of a horn? during a cavalry charge may result seriously. Evon the experiments which the government* make In new kinds of ammunition some­ times J. rove no Jest to the soldiers, for during the Austrian maneuver* two years ago eighteen men In one brigade were suffoca:ed by the fumes of the smokelc** powder. The advantages of these evolutions on a large scale, both to officerJ and to men, arc believed \o be very great The wen become accustomed to rely upon their companions, and a* tbe artillery tire and the rattle of musketry bear ariose re­ semblance to a retd' action, they acquiye a steadiness which may servo them wall when entering Into actual battle. Tho officers become accustomed to managing large bodies of men: tbe Commissary Department is trained to do it* duty un­ der mcstdltadvantageousclicumstances. while the railway service is taxed to its fullest extent, for the numbers of men moved in these c ampaigns ar* little In­ ferior to those which must be transportc<l were hostilities actually in progress. For the most part, the men enjoy the outing. They know they are In no dan­ ger from bullets. The open fields are a pleasant change from the monotony of barrack and garrison life and when off duty, as they are *omo hours each day, they enjoy themselves as at a plchia Aside from the practical Importance of the semi-annual campaigns*' a train­ ing school for the soldiery, they some­ times assume a historic Interest. Europe is covered with I attln-tleld*. Somo year* ago an English map-maker under­ took to draw up a map of tho Continent which should, by a pa r of crossed swords, indicate the locality ot every battle which had been fought on conti­ nental 9.11.

The semi-annual maneuvers "are not confined, however, to field fighting. The siege operations around Par s have al­ ready been mentioned.

They are de­ scribed a* one of tho moat wonderful regions in the world. Geologists hold that during the mioeene period a vast fresh-water lake covered this portion of the American continent. As these lakes drained off, after the subsidence of tbe plains further east, the original lake-lieds were worn into canyons that twined in every conceivable direction. Here and there abrupt and almost per­ pendicular portions of the ancient beds remain in al! imaginable forms, some resembling the ruins of abandoned cities. Towers, spires, cathedrals, obelisks, pyramids and monuments of various shapes appear on every side. Dr. Hayden, the, earliest explorer of this region, says: " Not infrequent! v the rising or setting sun will light up these grand old ruins reminding one of a city illuminated in the night as seen from high points. The harder layers project from the sides of the canyons with such regular­ ity that they appear like seats of some vast, weird amphitheater.” These lands are entirely nnauited for agriculture, and with rare exceptions are of little value for grazing.

Their appearance when they thus stand facing one another yith their heads thrown back and their paws in front of their faces is, on account per­ haps of the resemblance it bears to the jiosture of prize-fighters, extremely comic. Small mice, also, when at­ tacked by their bigser congeners, raise their paws before their faces, the atti­ tude in that case strangely suggesting one of deprecation. What occurs when belligerent backs actually engage, only instantaneous photography oould record, so rapid aro their movements. Presumably they try to bite; bnt must consider defense the better part of valor, for they never appear to get hurt much, and between the rounds will nibble away at the crust which brought them into the vicinage, onlv showing thiir excite­ ment by rattling their tails against the ground. Occasionally, a tail adzed by the teeth leads to one mouse having to drag hi# enemy o\ er the floor till the latter lets go.—Naturalist.

It occurred to the writer to ask if there was any reason for this. The manager replied, just as if he had been expecting some one to ask the question. “There are several reasons for it. Women do not like to take the say-so of their own sex on dress goods; men have better ideas of combination than women; men are more diplomatic in dealing with women than saleswom­ en are. A saleswoman can accomplish more at some other counter than men. But at the dreta goods counter men make the best employes. Yon would naturally think that a woman coul grab up a piece of goods and show i to advantage. I never saw one ths could do it. Few women are goo judgoa of combinations of colors on th counter.

Lord Stan­ ley, in calling upon Senator Abbott to frame a government, has done the only th.ntr that appeared feasible to enable the Tory party to hold control of the treasury benches at Ottawa. ' Sir John Thompson was first called, but he soon discovered when he under­ took the formation of a cabinet that it was a task he was unable to .carry - to a successful Issue. He discovered that the ultra-Protesunt province of Ontario, which gave Sir John Macdonald’s Gov­ ernment a support of forty eight mem­ bers. would not accept him as Prime Minister, he having at one time turned from Protestant to Catholic. Sir ( baric* Tupper s attempt to wreck the Grand Trunk Railway, the second largest cor­ poration In the country, put him out of the race, so that Senator Abbott was tho only one whom it was possible for the Governor General to call upon, lest he took* up Sir Hector Langevin, who cer­ tainly. by right of senority, should.have been called. In passing over Str Hector. Lord Stanley has ignored the French Canadian race. In advocating the candidature of Sir. Charles Tupper, the Citizen. tho Govern­ ment organ at Ottawa, said a provisional Ministry will be a public proclamation of weakness, a flag of truce never yet displayed by Conservatives.

He will meet with diil'culties, and we believe that our Ontario friends will see that it Is their duty and Interest to Join and co operate at this juncture.” John J. Caldwell Abbott was born on March 12, 182?. In the rectory of St Andrew's Parish. County of Argenequl1, Quebec. Ills father was the Rev. Joseph Abbott, M. A., who In 1818 came from England and nettled at bl Andrew as the first Anglican Incumbent Mr. Abbott graduated from McGill College, Montreal, and at once entered upon the study of law. At the age of 27 year? he was called to the bar of Liwer Canada. It was not until 185*.' that he entered jiolltical life aS member for his native county In the Assembly of Canada. Fjom that time onward he took an active part In the transactions of the House, notably In reference to commercial matters. He was made a Q.

In 1867, upon confederation, Mr. Abbott was elected to the House of Cam mon a. in the nego­ tiations c-f the syndicate, of which blr Hugh Allan was chief, for the Pacific Railway charter. Mr. Abbott acted as counse', and through his confidential clerk’s treachery the famous private correspondence which caused the Pacific scandal saw the light In thd defeat of the Government at that time Mr. Abbott shared, and remained In private life until 1880. He was elected in that year and sat through Parliament until 1887, when he retired. He was subsequent y elevated to the Senate, of which he has of late been the Government leader. Next to the Insolvency act, the measure by which his reputation has own most enhanced is the jury law consolidation act for lower Canada. Rr»-No. BnTKM—Cboto* Craaujcrv | C'h».i ss-Ful!

The trial is over, the Wilaonsave been acquitted of the charge of slander, dnd, in consequence. Sir William, has been found guilty of cheating. Not withstanding, tho higher circles unite in . voicing the most Intense­ indignation over the jury's find­ ing, and the press, In part, unites In tho cry. Before the trial was finished, the Prince induced Cumming to sign a piper exonerating him < Wales i from all blame in the matter. But the evidence »Lowed that Wales was cognizant of the cheat­ ing. The comments of tho leading pa­ pers make interesting reading. The Chronic c has a'scathing article In .which It condemns the Jury's finding and Lord Coleridge s partiality. It declares no evidence was adduced Inconsistent with the hypothesis that C-ummit g merely played the well-known coup de It says the verdict mj*ans according to the Jury that Cumming dellbera’ely cb> au*d an Illustrious but Impecunious friend by u trick re ,uJrlng loos and toil­ some c tars of practice to acquire, that though twenty years an habitual card­ player, without provoking the slightest suspicion, he had suddenly plunged into a wild orgic, cheating the only man in the world on whose patronage his social and professional life ■ depended There la nothing incredible in Cumming's sign­ ing the damning document on the strength of a statement of "the Prince of Wales’ cringing minions, dooming him to a fate wore than death, in order id ire what the Prime of Wales Is pleased to call his honor Cumming Is not the first ga'lant Scottish gentleman who has sacrificed both honor and life to tho fervid passion of loyalty to the Prince, or whose devotion has been rewarded by cruel and cynical ingratitude. He haa this satisfact on. that :.o other man without the soul of a Hunky has ever run the smallest risk for the sake of tho be r apparent’s honor. '1 he ankle, proceeding, flatly a rcuses the Prince of Wales of violating a pledge of secrecy, and calls ufon the authorities to Indict Sir W.lllam Gordon Cumming for the criminal offense of cheating. It declares that if they do not, the public will know what toihlnk. aud >ays that if the Duke of Cambridge shrinks from his duty Io regard to tho military offeuse, it is to be hoped that ' Parliament will not prove so pusillani­ mous. Tho Chronicle finally asks what, st *p« will be taken to vindicate Justice in a crime which the Prince of Wales compounded by signing the compact of Sir William Gordon Cumming: or whether the infamous scandal will be hushed up forever. The Stnndnrd cays: "Even if tho plaintiff comes out the worst in the af­ fair, it must be admitted that the de­ fendants and their friends Lave a some­ what tarnished reputation- The whole buslne s is Ignoble from the I ©ginning to the cna There Is an air of vulgarity and shabbiness about it. and it must.

But he has never revealed the fact of their failure a* sportsmen, not only because it was a professional secret, but also for a reason which will presently appear.

He died in Although Ja-iper was a quick-temthe reader will be surprised to learn that it was not he who killed the suave and unctions Joseph, but it wa* Joaeph who killed Jasper. The murder was far from an impulsive act. It wm a coolly calculated achievement, looking to a transfer of fortune from the man of sordid mercantile pur­ suits to the man of jovial professional leisure. Joseph would be the only awake nlghte wondering where to get a good smoke, while the NA­ wifeless, childlea* man's death, and TIONAL GUARD or FAITHFUL FRIEND CIGAR can be had at the Efemarkably low price of five cents. when the brothers capsized their canoe, while fishing, and it was not unlikely that the lean one would .-.ink and the YOU upon such natural results. He clung to Haden shivering with a chill: for hi* naturally feels a’ creepy sensation after he has murdered a brother for the first time. The guide rowed hither and thither, peering down into the pond,, and reaching with a paddle, but never finding Jasper in the dark little water­ pit into which he was sunken. He re­ and saw a tiling that astonished him. Joseph Haden sat enveloped from neck to heels in a big bag of rubber. Steam was escaping a little at the throat, nnd the exposed face looked parboiled. The inclosed man was tak­ ing a Turkish bath by shutting himself in with a lighted lamp, after the man­ ner common out of the wtxxis, but Reuben didn’t know it. "I am taking precautions against a cold," Joseph said. "I'm a physician, you know, and I am fully aware of the danger of pneumonia following the chill I’ve had." Reuben had heard of folks boiling1 with rage, and he was now iinpresaea vaguely with the thought that this bagged man was boiling with grief for his drowned brother. If so, he was bound to be well done, for he sat there AM TAKING FRKCAVTIONN AGAINST COLD." bour aftur hour until nightfall, with the perspiration dripping from hi* head down the outside of the ^ag, inside of which tbc accumulation of water threat­ ened to rise high enough to extinguish the lamp. The fire did burn itoclf out at length, and then the simmering man tumbled weakly from thg seat. "Take off the rubber," he whispered. "That'* it. Now lay me out straight and rub me with that woolen jacket. Hard—harder— that’s right." The friction dried the man, drenched the jacket and tired the guide. “Now," Joseph said, "I’ll turn in for the night.” Wrapped thickly in blankets, he slept on the bed of boughs until morning; but at dawn he started off on a brisk walk of five or six miles before breakfMt, of which he ate sparingly of lean meat only. During the ensuing five days the guide wm astonished by the amount of lioiling. walking and rub­ bing which this singular man endured. "Hadn't we oughter go out'n give no­ tice of your bi«other'**denth?" Reuben once suggested. “Go and make one more hunt for his body," was the reply, "and if you don't find it, we will quit the camp to-morrow morning." Reuben did find it, und gixxl reason why. Joseph had loosened it from the rope nnd stone an hour before, and then fled from it a* it floated, for he habit? ually avoided unpleasant sights if pos­ sible. He looked long enough, howev­ er, to see that it had bloated so much more than its former bulk. “Good Lord!" the guide cried breath­ lessly, as he ran back into the camp. "I’ve found hir^. His clothes wMgona. How could that a’been? And he wm as stocky m you was two weeks ago.” Be looked at the surviving brother, and saw in an instant the change that had been wrought in him. The fat man had reduced himself to u thin one by violent sweating and exercises right before the staring eyes of .the. guide] but it wm not until now that the dolt­ ish witness realized the extent of the alteration. “My gracious!" he exclaimed, draw­ ing back for a critical survey; "you’r* the image of him like he wm when we come here, and—and—" "And hi* body is os big now as mine was then?” the other suggested, ur­ banely. "That's je*t about *o. Dr. Haden." "And it looks to you m though I had bqen drowned, and he stood here before you alive?" Only—" "Well, only what?" "Only there wm his foot.

Ills demise was very lingular, if he has come to his senses yet, he must review the event with keen interest, ariskig not so much from a personal concern m from that pride of distinction which should exist in a man who has been drowned on dry lafi'd. "Will It hurt me?" Reuben asked, as the rubber bag was being puckered tightly around his neck. “After a minute ortwo you won't feel it," wa* the sincere reply, "am! your headache will be gone entirely.” By this time the upper end of the sack was fitted tn the neck so tightly a* to choke. "We will vary the use of this thing to suit your case." the operator went on. ‘*0, don’t gasp. Your breath, wont bother you after just a little." Nor did it. Joncph slit the bag at the bottom, turned it up over Reuben'* head and gripped it tightly. "You'll smother me," the victim panted, with a convulsive shake of his bagged held. "I’ll give you some air," und the as­ sassin kept his word by relaxing his hold sufficiently to make an aperture. "Now, sit down quietly on the ground, Reuben. It's got to be done, you know, and the quicker it’* over the sooner you’ll be comfortable." It wus at thi* point in the experiment that Reuben became greatly amazed. In recalling it to memory (if hi* pres­ ent condition of mind permit* him to be retrospective) he will recollect that the novelty of the homicide wm wondrous. He sat down on the ground obediently. Over hi* head, but leaving a small open space, the reversed bag wm bunched in one hand by Joseph, who with the other took up a pailful of water and poured it into the opening. So Reuben's head was M completely submerged M though he had been at the bottom of the pond. For a minute or two there wm a great deal of commotion. If Reuben had not tried, in the absence of air. to breathe the water, hi* violent strength might have availed him: but he had en­ joyed no experience with such unex­ pected circumstance*, and hi* futile writhing* and contortion* seemed to be actuated by a confused belief that he might swim out of the difficulty. Joseph twisted tbc bag with all his might, thus forcing the water down around Reu­ bens head. "Stop kicking!" he cried. “Do you hear me?" Reuben heard him. but couldn't say so; and, whether in obedience or not, hl* resistance ceased, and he soon lay drowned to death on the sun-dried ground. He had died so much after the manner of a fish that had been pulled out of the water, with his captor holding to him while he floundered, that the suggestion of some new and awful form of Adirondack sport flashed into the slayer’* perturbed mind. But it was n^t blithesome or jocose to be alone in the wood* with two men whom you have murdered, and Joseph Baden, moreover, was filled with per­ sonal regret for the sacrifice of feeling which his enterprise had demanded. Besides he knew that a most incon­ venient anti painful ordeal rtill awaited him. He hud put himself into a re­ stored resemblance of hi* deceased brother: he hail canoed the body to o»sume the proportions of his own a* last seen by relatives and friends; he had silenced th*» only witness of any of the process; he was ready to go out into civilization with the now indisputable lie that the two men liad been drowned accidentally in the lake—except that one important act remained to be done. If Joseph Haden wa* to be accepted without suspicion, as Jasper Haden, then the dead twin must have two feet and the survivor only one. Joseph was not a man to enter upon an important undertaking without cal­ culating it to a climax, nor to stop in his endeavor before he had done hi* ut­ most to reach the ultimate success, fie wa* a surgeon, and well aware of the l>other nnd unpleasantness of amputa­ ting hi* own foot. But he felt that the two other persons concerned had suf­ fered considerable annoyance, and he would not permit himself to hesitate in doing his duty by the affair. So he ex­ cised his left foot at the ankle, and it wa* an excellent piece of surgery—well worthy of a full report to hi* medical society, if he had not felt an obligation of professional secresy. Joseph allowed himself a week for tbe wound to get along in the process of healing. With a skillful and uncom­ monly solicitous surgeon in attendance, the case had no mishaps or oomplioations. When all was ready he went to the nearest settlement, introduced him­ self a* Jasper Haden, reported the death of Joseph and the guide, and arranged for their burial. There was no arousal of suspicion in tjie minds of the rustic* who had to do with the inquest, funeral ami interment Several relatives and acquaintance* of the Hadens came, but there was no cause for incredulity. There was a well-rounded and two­ footed dead Baden—for the surgeon had attached his severed member to hi* brother’s ankle in a manner which, be­ ing uninve*tigated, wm not discovered. There was a slim and single-footed Hve Haden—for he wore the artificial foot Wfco oould suspect? .It wm almost a month later when the tion at the outer end of the Adirondack* railway. "Ah!

Ciotwfly allied to tho iron industry, con­ trolling in a measure the coal output, •nd requiring the services of men dopendent and permanently located, coke production affects with iti prosperity or depression the commercial, financial, agricultural, and industrial Interests of a section vitally, and of the country at large to quite an important degree 'It practically sways the * iron manufac­ turers, it defeats investment calculatlons by cutting down running expense*, daring a lock-out, and when such occurs « sufficiently large amount of money Is withdrawn from circulation to seriously affect tho regular routine of trade. Then1 aro eighteen States and Terri­ tories In which the manufacture of coke is made a feature, but the Connellsville district in Pennsylvania, outrivals all others in the quantity and quality of its •upply. Here tho industry has Its con- •ter, and sufficient capital is massednatural advantages found, and the busl­ ines* conducted on a broad enough basis to admit of the utilization of the best mechanical means and fine skilled labor •where occasionally required, to claim pre-eminence as the banner coke district • of tho world. Hero alone 13,511 ovens aro located, employing some 17,000 men, at a •dally’-pay-roll average of ¥35.000, and all and consequent limited demand for the product In i8?» the business took a 'decided “boom.” however, the oven ca­ I paefty was doubled and workmen were in great demand. Tho.contiguous counUei were unable to .supply laborers, and th© Pittsburg employment agencies wero resorted to by the mfne-awne:a. This led to tbe Introduction of large numbers of Hungarians and Poles. Popular error has accredited these men with dis­ placing English-speaking workmen, which is not the fact—they simply aug­ mented tho working force and tilled a demand, rapidly acquiring American ways Tbe prosperity of the plants naturally extended to tho men, and led to a centralization of principle*. Affairs proceeded smoothly until ’8*1, when the Knight* of I-abor advocated and aided tho first general strike of tho coke­ workers for higher wag -s Tne strike was unsuccessful, and. after six weeks of 'Idleness, work was reaum-wl. Capital and labor seemed to agro) on equitable terms during the succeeding five year*. Tho depression of ld!H, however, had‘a demoralizing effect’on tbe men.

They furthermore charged the prevailing trouble to professional labor agitators and e'aimod that the workmen lived better and earned' more than at other mines, which latter statement was true, but. although the Connellsville coal is easily mined and the men work at their leisure, and have tho wagons to fill at their hand, they accomplish much morn than in mines in loss favored lo­ calities It was estimated, previous to tho last great strike, that thoConnellsville work­ men received for unskilled lalx>r 25 per cent, more wages than was pa d el.-uwhere for tbc same character of work, and that. too. fur simply handling tho shovel nnd pickax. Hungarians, Pules aud Italians earned from 82 to S3 a day for seven to nine hours’ labor In dry. w.dl-vcntllated mines, whom soft nine foot veins exist’d.

The willing horse tried his beat to back the vehicle to the de­ sired spot, but even his great strength was not equal to the ta*k. Then the dri rer began to beat the animal, and this quickly collected v crowd. He was a big fellow, with H, fierce look in his eyes, and the by slanders were chant about interfering, knowing what would follow. “I pity the horse, but don’t want to get into a row," remarked one. "I'm not in the least afraid to tackle him,” pnt in a young man with a long neck, “but about the time I get him down along will come a policeman and arrest us both.” The driver was beating the horse and nothing was being done alx>ut it. when a little girl about 8 yean old ap­ proached and said: “Please, mister." “Well, what yer want?” “If you’ll only atop I’ll get all the children around here and well carry everv bit of the coal to the manhole and let you rest while while were doing it." The man looked around in a defiant way. but, meeting with only pleasant looks, he began to give in. and after a moment he smiled and said: “Mebbe he did’nt deserve it, bat I’m out of sort* to-day. There goes the whip, and perhaps a lift on the wheels will help him." • The crowd swarmed around the cart, many hand* helped to push, and the old hone had the cart to the spot with one effort. few days old. and yet G.

Lawrence and the Wisconsin mingling its waters with the Miflsissippi and the Gulf. The Wisconsin is intimately connected with the wars of Blackhawk and many are the legends still handed down abnut the fomoua Indian chief. A part of the Wisconsin known as the Dells is worthy descrip­ tion. The upper aud lower Dells form together an irregular gorge some ten miles long, walled in with sandstone rock from 20 to 100 feet high. upon which na­ ture's re«onrce of various designs has well nigh been exhausted. Every­ where is one panorama of beauty. In one'place are curious formations of rock which from their resemblance to an ocean steamer are called the navy yard: in another is Stand Rock, a rough hewn pillar rising 100 feet from the valley and crowned with a mossgrown tablet; again is on ofmtiing into a cave known as the Phantom Cham­ ber that never has b<en explored, and a little beyond the Dells is Devil’s Lake, a body of water that has do vis­ ible inlet or outlet. The Indians re­ garded the lake with superstitions feeling and gazed with awo on the strange deep waters in the stern and desolate temple of some unknown deity. Tbe wounded s’ag, dashing into its cooling waves, escaped pursuit; the very fish loamed in shoals un­ sought. and so strong was this super­ stitious dread that the dying warrior perished in agony rather than profane its waters with human lips. Whoever would wish to pee nature in the grandest and most sublime of her effects should not fail to visit the lake country of Wisconsin. “ What sort of a watch is thi* ?" asked Duzenbary, picking up a curious old timepiece from an Austin watchmaker's show case. . “That,” replied ths watchmaker, "is a real cmi wuty.

Not even a dog barked. Strangest of all. although the ripKr’s principal victim's were hens, the :g of the barnyard was Dot even heard to utter a clucking protext. Before the day dawned 530 dead strewed the sward of the barnyards of some of Montclair's prettiest homes. A reward of $103 ha < been offered for tho appiehensiou of the miscreant, and. the lM«t detective talent of New Jersey is dow at work on the case. The ripper cut the throats of his vic tims. Eithei he flew about on a broom­ stick, or el/e he must have bad confed­ erates. It is impossible to see bow one man could have cut the throats, of 500 bhiekens distributed over an area of at least two miles. . The knife used has not yet been dis­ covered. All the throats were out in the same manner— that is. transverse­ ly and with a deep thrust just suffi­ cient to leave the head hanging to the trunk. In Nome cases the oomb was removed. There were isolated cases of disembowelment. and iu some of the >e the gizzard had been cut ant aud carried away‘by tho scoundrel. Some chicken* have been known to carry diamond* around in their gizzards. Some chicken coops were more harshly stricken than others in that hen* and roosters and chickens alike fell before the butehpr's knife. In other case* Mr. Cock-a-doodle-doo was left to mourn the loxs of all his wives. No hens escaped. The murderer must have been particularly sore on hens, or eggs—it is impossible to say which. Early on Friday moroiog. when the family rooster should have waked pa­ terfamilias s-s usual, hi* voice was stilled on Elm street. As a consequence cook was late for breakfst. papa missed his train, and tho children stayed home fropi school. But great was the mourn­ ing when it was discovered that-the erstwhile peaceful coop bad been con­ verted into a scene of carnage. Dead chickens lay everywhere, but in this case there were no eggs in the lay. Reverently the remains were gathered together and prepared for the evening meal. Everybody on Elm street had chick­ en for dinner on Friday evening. There wax no change in the menu yesterday and will be none to day. The roosters and aged hens have been converted into soup. I did a little detective work myself yesterday. A gixal rule to follow in running down a murderer is to look for him near the scene of his crime imme­ diately after its commission. I found a colored man mowing a lawn on Elm street. He tried to look innocent, but my searching glance discomfited him. ’ "Heard about that chicken slaugh­ ter?” said L “No. boas. I hain't,” said he; but he turned an ashen hue under my slquthhound eye. I impressed upon his mind the fact that 5P0 had been slain. Tbe gigantic number utartled him, but he again professed his entire innocence.

It is related that the old man was a miser and drove his sop from home to make his living in the world at a very tender age. Years passed, and ’he Iwvwas given up by his parents, they thinking that he was dead. One stormy night a tall, bearded stranger knocked at the door of the cabin and adzed for shelter. It was grudgingly given him by the old couple, but when, the stranger showed them a bag of gold which he carried in his valise they werq over­ joyed. . That night, as the guest lay Bleep­ ing. the old man crept to his side. There was tho glitter of a keen blade iu the darkness, and then-----When morning came the old woman looked on the dead man's face and screamed with terror. "God have mercy on us!” she cried. “We have killed our boy—our son that was lost!” It was so. Theydtad not recognized him when he entered, and be probably thought to deceive them until morning and then have a happy family reunion. A vivid idea of the extent to which the telephone takes the place of tho “errand l>oy” of our forefathers was given a few days ago in Boston, when the representative of the New England Telephone Company stated before a legislative committee that the messages ! it handled would require the employ­ ment ot 10,001) messenger boys if they had to be carried through the street instead qj prey the wfre.

FROM GROSS CRUELTY OF TYRANT BALMACEDA. Many startling facts In connection, with tho revolution now raxing In Chili, which throw £ght upon the ferocity and despotism of Balmaceda, are given the public by three gentlemen, two <>f whom are Chilian*, who arrived last­ wee k. The stories show'that Balmaceda. Is well termed “the tyrant " In Santi­ ago. where hi» headquarter*are, no one> dare* to utter a word against him. has caused a cross of red to be painted on the houses ot all people whom he sus­ pects of being pot In sympathy with him, and Into these marked residences hl* po­ lice and soldiers go at any hour of thfr day or night They ransack the rooms on tho ground that they are looking for revolutionist* who are supposed to be hidden there. The soldiers demand wineand food, and after havinga* good a time as they wish depart only to repeat the offense at some other marked resi­ dence. If a laborer is caught on the street, go.ng to or from work without a tag showing for whom be is working he is gobbled up by the soldiers of Balmaceda aud Impressed into his service. This system exists In Valparaiso also. One of the gentlemen re.erred to was walk­ ing along the street past a jail-yard Ho heard some terrible shrieks* from somo one on the other tide of the walk Ho Inquired of a soldier the cause and was told that some of Balmaceda’s soldiers were punishing a man who had refused to work for him by driving tacks and plus into his hands and fingers. The next day he saw a horrible pun­ ishment meted out to a Chilian who ha3) been overheard to say that ho wai willing to work his hands off for the revolutionists. Tho poor fellow’s hands were placed on a b’oek aud his finger* pouuued to a Jelly by a big mallet In tho bauds uf a soldier- Hu was then told that he could go and work his bands any way Imj wanted to for any.one. Tho New-Yorker denounced tbe affair to a friend—a resident of Santiago who wa* with him. The next day his friend was mtaslng. nor did he i-how up again. I The New York man returned to Vilparaiso, and just before he soiled be re­ ceived a message from his friend saying that he had been locked up by Balmaceda’s men. accused of being a revolu­ tionist symoathizer. The weak point of the revolutionists Is the lack of ayms and ammunition-. Tho forces of the revolutionist* number at present 3,000 men. fully armed ami equipped- Could the necessary-arms ba secured the number would at once be In­ creased to 10,000 men. There are now at HuaS-o, Valenar, Frairina and Carrizal ■ bodies of men—in a 1 some 0.000—who are only waiting to get arms and am­ munition before they take up the march against Balmaceda. At the smaller places on the coast as, far north as Arica arc similar bodies of would-be soldier*. The arms for these men were tn the Itato, and-had they secured them, with what ammunition tho Itata carried, tho Chilian revolution would have been set­ tled In short order. Balmaceda’s army consists of 25,000 mon. well equipped. Of these only 3,000 are of the old regular standing army; the rest are recruits forced into the •ervlce. “Balmaceda," said one tho gentlemen from whom these details arc obtained, “calls these men volunteers.

Tho following additional particulars of tho flood at Cherokee jvere received this morning; The wagon bridge over the Sioux south of the town went out about 10 o'clock Tuesday night. This was followed by all the houses on tho flat In that part of the town, numbering over ono hundred. The number of peo­ ple driven from their homes was between twelve and fifteen hundred.

Imitead of exhausting the supply in thirty years, the men now in the field have brought to sight, in the upper end of lhe val­ ley, more anthracite coal than has been mined since the first opening was made. Recent dexelopments at Forest City have surprised the coal men of the region, and now it i* known that the work of mining bsa only begun in that region. The immense tracts that the .Elk Hill Coal Company ig now making preparations to develop were passed by for years as worthless. Close upon the new* that operations were to be commenced by the Elk Hill Company comes the announcement that the Northwest Coal Company, which owns large tracts-in Upper Lackawanna, has met with unexpected good fortune in prospecting.

James Blayne was a little out ot tem­ per. For more than n fortnight be had unsuccessfully devoted all tbo oppor­ tunity at bis command to discover * the whereabout* of Lady Merton’s jewels, and of tbe *m*u or woman who had stolen them. James Blayne was a promising yonng member of the detective force, on the lookout for the lucky step that should lift him above the level of his compeers, and when the Merton robbery wa* in­ trusted to.his carfe he thought he had got his chance at last. It certainly was rather an interesting case. About three weeks before the day on which we record Mr. Blayne's loss of temper, pretty Lady Merton, a* might have been gathered subsequently from tbe newspa} er report*, was spending a solitary evening in her house in Brook street. Sir Robert was dining with an old friend some little way out-of towp, and, not returning till tho morning, mv lady had intended going to tbe play with some friend*. , But late in tbe afternoon she altered her plan*, dis­ patched a note begging tu be excused un account of a severe headache from joining tho party, and with a curious feminine idea ut comfort and indul­ gence, told-her maid that she would not go down stairs again, but would have some dinner "on a tray” in her boudoir at 7:8a ’ At 10 o’clock she rang her bedroom bell, and saving that her head still ached badly and she should go to bed, dismissed her maid, i equiring nothing more that night. Be ore leaving the maid asked if she should go to lhe jew­ eler's the next morning early, as bad been arranged, to take there for repair a diamond brooch of her mistress. “Yes," adding as her maid opened the jewel case to take ont lhe brooch, “Ok leave it till the morning.'* The box wa* re ocked and the key put in its usual - place in one of the dressing-table drawers. The butler stated that at 1V:8U the honae was shut up and every one went to bed. The next morning Lady Merton, find­ ing her headache no better, kept her room darkened till after 10 o'clock, when some tea was brought to her by her maid. Tbe latter then went to the jewel-case for lhe broken brooch, and finding tbe box unlocked with tbo key lying near it hastily opened it and cried out the robbery to her mistress. This was the story that in twenty-four hours was known to most newspaper readers in the country, and thi* wm the story that about three weeks later was trying James Blayne's temper. Again and again he reviewed the few heads of the ca»e. On July 25 Lady Merton went to bed between 10 and 10:30 p.m. The.jewels were then in tbeir places, and she, see­ ing the box opened, told ber maid not to disturb them till morning. The maid locked the box, replaced the key in a drawer, and shortly went to her own room, fasteniug the door—this la*t fact being attested by tbo housewnid'', who alept in an outer room,- The but­ ler swore to turning out the light* and “shutting" up at 10:30. Lady Merton slept little and restlessly till 12:30, when she got np and stirred the tire— thi* fact attested bv tbe cook, wbo slept io an outer ro<>m above and was aroused by the sound of the poker. At 10 o’clock the next morning tbe jewels were missing, and the jewel-ca*e stood in the dressing-room within, and only approachab'e through Lady Merton’s bed-room. XXRobbery from without, Blayne re­ jected after due examination us im­ possibility.

"Oh, yes. Jem. very. Tho air here seems to be quite setting me up, so I fancy I had been working a bit too bard, though I always said it was mother’s nonsense. It's true it’s rather dull here, but than I often go into Sfpnelay and have a look at the smart visitor* ;«o even if Aunt Sarah u snappy at times I don’t mind. She’s kind enough, really." “She couldn't have got anyone ebe to bring her here, so she ought to be. I bet the beastly water puts an edge on a temper like her! Y'e*, I expect it’s prett’- dull alone with her. Poor Nelly r “Oh, I don’t mind; ^nd we've got a new neighbor.”“Old Mrs. what's name—yen told mo of, gone ?” “No. She's got a new lodger—a man —good looking, rather. She brought him in one day to tea, and we meet him now and then on the road. But he doesn’t go out much." “Oh, biding on some account, is he?” a«ked -.Fem rather snappishly of the vretty dressmaker. "Nonsense, Jem. ho isn’t hiding. Ha is drinking the waters, he says, and he has a very pretty bider.” "Sister? Then they both lodge next door ?" — “No. She comes to boo him. She is a lady's maid staying at Stonelay. The husband of the lady she is with is drink­ ing the waters.” “Ugh! lady's maid?" said Blayfce ■pitetully, thinking of bis recent trials, with which his fiance was acquainted. "Really, Jem. I believe your failing to fix lhe stealing business on the poor lady's maid has made you hate the lot. And, talking of yonr jewel affair, I find while you lose------ " _• “How do you mean ?" “ Why. yesterday I found such a lovey button ou the path just outside Lera It was sparkling in the sun and I picked it up and brought it id. I went in to old Mrs. Brown to ask Mr. Martin (her lodger) il be knew anything about it; but he was away for two days, she told me, coming back to-night. Auntie says I’ll have to make it known, per­ haps advertise it if to one claims it, for this morning I showed it to Mr. Frazer, the jeweler st Stonelay, and he said it was a very good button, and uncommon, as the stones are beryls." “What!” "Dear me! beryl*. Arc they as ex traordinary a* all tha’ ?” “That depend*. Show us the but­ ton, Nellie?” “Here it is,” she said, taking it from the mantle shelf. “Twelve gold filigree buttons jeweled with beryls,” Blayne murmured to him­ self. “I should like to see your neigh- j bor, Nellie, and his sister, the lady’s maid." "Why, Jem. you don’t think—oh, I remember now, that description you sent me of the lost jewels 1 But this cau’t be. She is such a dear little thing, and so pretty." ,“Y*es; what sort?” “Oh. middle height. dark hair, pretty eyes, nice figure------ * “That'll do, Nellie. It would fit al­ most any one. I say, who’s that com­ ing up the path to the house now?" “Why, that's Mr. Martin,” said Nel­ lie, as Blayne instinctively got behind the muslin window curtain, from which post of vantage he could easily see without being seen. “He's good-look­ ing, isn’t he, Jem? Looks like a gen­ tleman,' rather?” “Ye-es, just that last. 1 thiak Iv’e got his measure." “And oh. therein his sister just be­ hind him—see? Now. that's not your lady's maid, is it?” “That!” exclaimed Blayne, with eyes nearly starting through the lace of the | curtains. “Is that yonr lady’s maud and that man'*—sister?" “Yes,” answered Nellie, as her neighbor and hi* sister, nodding and smiling to her, entered the next house. "Dues she stay the night there?” in­ quired Blayne. “Oh, no, nothing more than on hour. Her lady conldn’t spare her. But what is tbe matter with you, Jem, laughing id jerk* like that?" * “Oh. nothing.

He- was shown into a sitting-room where a very pretty woman in a soft morning wrapper was lying on tbe sofa reading the paper. She ro»e as he came in, and he thought of tbe lady's maid ’ whose description would “fit almost any one.” “Well.

The ingenuity exercised in devising cipher code* is astonishing to veteran travelers. These little volume* are now published in convenient form to be car­ ried in a traveler's pocket and contain a list of five or oix hundred English words selected more for their telegraphic eu­ phony than on any other consideration, arranged alphabetically and each with its meaning in plaiu language set oppo­ site to it. The number of words, phrases and sentences which a single cipher word may mean when flashed under the ocean is astounding. For instance: In Low's new pocket code the word "scamper” means "Telegraph in.cipher as s’oou as yon receive the copy of the pocket cable code which I send you for that purpose.” The word “enarched” mean*, “Check book has been lost or stolen; please sto^ pay­ ments on any cheeks bearing the num­ ber cf my check book.* When tele­ graphic euphony is all tided to an exj>ert will readily understand that the object desired in cipher words is a collection of letters, the telegraphic symbols for which are most roLiily intelligible to tbe oar of tbe cable oner-tor, the tele­ graph sounds, for instance, for “m” and “e” are so Dearly alike, it is said, that certain unions of those letters have been avoided a* tar a* possible.

An eyewitness of tbe recent floods in lluj .vicinity of Cherokee, states that it Is necessary for one to sec to br;e the least idea of the great amount uf dam­ age done. “Why." he exclaimed, “It is simply terribly wonderful the way that Immense body of water swept things be­ fore it House.* w<rc but bubbles on its crest I was at Cherokee when tho cloud-burst came,-and In less time than it takes to tell 14 a flood was upon the town. Houses were seen to tremble, swing half around, and then carried along by the torrents. Trees were bent and broken like reeds and not a ihitie could stop the terrific onward rush of the water, and all this occurred before the people could possibly realise what had happened. The roost remarkable feature of the disaster is that any of tho people In tho truck of the flood escaped with their lives.

It Is es­ timat'd that hundreds of head of stock have been lest. Tuo miles of track of the main line of the Illinois Central has been wash d out between Cherokee and Sioux City, aud It will take a week to repair tbo damtittc. The Onawa* and Sioux Fall branches of tho same rood arc in a worse way. and it will be about ten days before traffic can bo resumed. Both wire tonneettons arc still broken. The S'oux River is sub­ siding. but it Is still forty feet deep, and covers a quarter of a mile of country. The average depth of the river when in Its channel Is about four feet. The work of clearing away the dobrls is now In progress, aud aid is ieing rendered the unfortunate inhabitant*. The town of Moville is still flooded and not one of the 200 inhabitants is able to occupy bls bouse, and all are camping out. There is only/.’SO pounds of liour in tho town. The town is almost completely cut off from succor Hundreds of horses and other live stock out in the fields in tho valley were fearfully lacerated by tho barb<«d wires carried down by the swol­ len torrent, in which the beasts become entangled. The damage at Cherokee Is estimated al over 9500,00a The river fell about ten feet, but was still twenty feet above low water mark. At ordinary stage ot water tho r.ver Is only about 200 feet wide, while It Is i ow 1,200 feet. The engineer of the relief train which was the first to go from Fort l odge to Cherokee after the big storm, has return­ ed to this city, says a Waterloo sp.-cial. It took them eight hours to run from Aurelia to Cherokee, and many times the* were compelled to stop on account of the rain, which came down In torrents. From Storm Lake to Cherokee tho cofintry resembled one vast lake almost direction. Only water was visible.‘wb le debris of destroyed buildings, bodies of hor.-es and cattle and other farm anima's floated past Cherokee in largo numbers. Most of them were still struggling to escape, but the rush of tbe torrents pre­ vented their reaching dry land The farmers along the line suffered very much. One farmer living south of Cherokee stated that over ZOO catt u are missing from his pasture, and bo expect* all are drowned.

Three hundred poor people in Cherokee are being fed and clothed by the relief committee, and a dispatch from there says outside aid will have to be asked. A. W. Theshcr, a mall-clerk on a Mil­ waukee and St. Paul train that was water bound, at Hornick, thus relates his experience: “Between Hornick and Hedge’s Siding the track Is out In many places, and so great was the force of the water that the rails were carried far from the readied. I got hungry, as did all the passengers. Our rations were rather slim, and so I made up my mind to come to Sioux City. I pul my letter mall in a pouch together with my cloth­ ing and started to wade. I waded through fully a mile and a half of water between Hornick and Hedge's, and In many places it was up to my neck At Hedges I caueht a (onstructlon train and rode into Sioux City. “The low lands are covered with water M far as you can see.

Until 1800 there stood In Now York a venerable willow tree that has an Inter­ esting history. When tho English poet. Pope, built his villa at Twickenham, ho planted a small twig that a friend had sent him from Smyrna, and tho little .twig became the parent of all its kind— the sails I’abylonlra, or Weeping Willow —In England and In tho United States. Ono of the British officers who went to Boston in 1775 to crush tho American re­ bellion had with him a twig from Popo's ’the bank of the Geneseo River, near tho village of Geneseo, N. Y. When tho white man first saw it It was the patri­ arch of the Uenoseo Valley, and was so revered by the Senecas that they named tlioir village “Big Tree.” It also gave name to an eminent Seneca chief, who was the friend of Washington and his cause. During a great flood in the Gen­ eseo valley In 1857 tho Big Tree was swept awav and buried In the bo om of Lake Ontario. The trunk measured 2ti feet o Inches In circumference. Probably next in age to tho Big Tree was the famous Charter Oak in the City of Hartford.

S’ettlers In portions of Colorado and California arc In no small degree alarmed at the sudden appearance of a large body of water In what has teen known as tbe desert po.tion of that country. It now seems a* If nature had decided to solvo.the question of irrigation for herself. The water appeared immediately after tho recent seismic disturbances in Italy and the slighter shocks felt In FanFrancisco. Exploring parties arc out. and. from the report of one, the inland* sea Is estimated to be twelve miles wide aud from fifty to seventy miles long. The boat was launched, and tbe crew set forth on one of the strangest trip* ever known- '1 here was a stiff and rattling breeze? and the boat danced merrily Upon the blue waves. . There was* plenty of salt, iodine,1 and ozone In tho air, .and early in the morn­ ing the trip was extremely pleasant A mile out a sma‘1 smelt was picked up- a. suit water fish—and to the most of thesailors in tho party this seemed to prove conclusively that the water was .the re­ sult of a clouddu rat. Others thought It was from the gulf by a subterranean passage, while Roadmaster Mulvihill clung to the Idea tha’t tbo water was coming from the Colorado River. Waler was tested and Its gravity found. It wont about 18 per cent. salt. The water In tho pool generally went 20 per*, cent,, while the ocean Is about 30, so It could not be told whether tho newly arrived water was salt or fresh. There was a fair wind and the party sailed to a point fifteen miles southeast of Salton. Here a current about a rnlto wide aud running like a mill race was struck. The water was fourteen indies deep and very clear. The swiftness of the current caused tho shallowness of the water. -This current settled the question In the mind of Mr. Mulvib.ill that the ,water camo from tho Colo­ rado River, the naval contingent re­ turned to Salton without further In­ cident. A dispatch was found there from Colonel Blaisdell, superinten­ dent of the Cargo Muchacho mines, which confirmed the Colonel's theory. Ho said during the flood last February the Colorado River overflowed Its banks and filled New River and many basins. The witer has since continued to pour out uf the Colorado River Into these basins aud New River, and to pour out of these in turn. He had always wondered where the water went to, and the Salton floods settled the question. Tho water started to Salton.five months ago, but owing to delay caused by the sandy soil and evaporation has Just arrived. . It was behind time, but it came as fast as It could over the desert. It Is thought the flood will last as long as the Colorado River Is high, and It is now twenty-seven feet above high-water mark. At places on New River, where the water is overflowing, the banks are about twenty-five feet high and of sand. They are getting wonk, and if they give way a bank of water twenty feet high aud many miles long will rush down like a tidal wave. If this occurs, which Js very probable, it will make things very lively with the railroad company and will change the course of the Colorado or New River entirely. In facL it the water holds out in these river*, it will- simply form a tea JOO m les long by fifty w.de. and Bann ng will become a port of entry. Men ■have been sent to a po nt on tho desert ten miles south of Volcano Springs, and if the current is found there It Is cer­ tain that tin- water Is from the Colorado. Tlie place where the break occurred is thirteen miles below Eiryo and seventy miles from Salton. SUDDEN RISE OF TULARE LAKE. The wonderful phenomenon now wit­ ness d on the Colorado Desert, at Salton, is being repeat -d at Tulare. Cal., where the practically drled-up Tulare Lake, the largest body of fresh water in the State is beginning to till up, driving out many sett ers who have located ranches on thu rich alluvial bed of the old lake. There is a legend among tho Indians cf Tule Rivet that .the take once covered many times Its present art's, that it recoded year by year till it had shrunk to a small pond, around which were gathered fishIsh villages of their grandfathers, but suddenly tbo waters from the snow­ capped Sierras rolled down into tho great Tu are Valley, which is a hundred miles wide at this point, tbo .ake began to spread, Indian villages were swept awav before the occupant* could remove their effects, aud many Indians were drowned. Those who escaped fled to the forth Ils. and they and thetr doscon Ian’s refused to dwell near the shore of the lake. The heavy snowfall last winter in the mountains brought down an enormous quantity of water when the spring thaws set In. The soil was a so heavily soaked aud couldn't ab­ sorb tho usual amount af_mohrture.beneo all the streams have carried water to tbo lake, but principally the Kern and Tu o Rivers. IL IL Fuman. a sett er who has a ranch at the mouth of Tule River, says the stream Is sixty feet wide and fifteen feet deep, and has swept away several ranch houses Fuman saya tbe lake bus spread out nearly ten miles in a few days and thu **~~ waiers have risen ten foet _ new road made round tho lake is under water, and several men who tried to follow it had narrow escapes from drown­ ing. This sudden rise of the waters and spread of the lake is remarkable, as for ten years the lake haa been- gradually receding, and scientists who have exam­ ined it predicted It would entirely dry up soon. „Tho loss do settlers around the lake Is heavy. Tbe land Is extremely fertile, and there is u pro'oct of building a levee to confine the waters of TulareLake. which is noted for its large sup­ ply of fish- and mussels. Before the 'present rise It was about twenty-four by twenty miles in an-a, but ten years ago it was fully double this area.

He is not a wealthy fellow, though be has a good income, and de­ tails incident to being, married had re­ lieved him of so much of his money that ho was unable to give to his wife the present he desired—a diamond necklace. He rami' to me about the matter, and explained that within thiee months after his marriage a large amount of money -ame duo him.and he could then easily buy the necklace 1 first offered to lend him a necklace of mine which he could present to his wife, and then when he was able he could have a duplicate made and re­ turn mine to me without her being any tlie wiser. Tills he refused to do, as ho also did my proposal of going surety for . or that by any device covers tho portion ofchook and neck from, tip of oar to beneath the chin gives, the same effect, ix-cauio It further suggests tho oval. Since that most dainty part of woman, tho nape of the neck. Is awk­ wardly concealed* by the down­ reaching brim in llio back. this j brim must bo cut away, and cut as high •*up away as seems pretty. Of course, if I modesty aga n assails the wearer, she I can hang a semi-transparent curtain over I that pretty rounded tj|t of neck audits curl or so But let us hojw modesty wl.l i not assail her In that way. Bobbed of • the shielding arched brim, the hat begins i to savor confessedly of coquetry. When 1 tlie brim Hares fjom tho face it becomes j a challenge to attention instead of a shy I deprecation of it, so much so that strings 1 tying under tho chin seem out of the ' question. Such a hat Is daring, saucy, j bod, heroic, majestic, as tlie temper and j temperament of the wearer makes It. Directly the brim disappears, or halt droops, tho head covering grows cbqnetIsh, half demure, half provocative. The lofty crown gives height and quaintness, and, if Dame Fashion says so, “style." The hat that is reduced to a mere crown ■ becomes an ornament and not a covering. and by its adjustment and the decrees oj fashiqn is or is not becoming Tho present style of headgear Is by all <xids coquettish, by reason of tho dose­ lying brim, the bits of airy, erratic, ami Indcpend* nt upright points, the crisp flnftinc.-s, the pointed turns of tho brim, and the open crown, displaying the hair It is supposed to cover. The hat whose brim turns up abruptly at tho back, and slants or points down in front, has— whether U/n wearer will or no—a dash­ ing, devil-may-care effect. The hat that sits roundly on tho forehead, either. Ylr.mles* or like a sailor hat. Is bound to bo jaunty and business-like. If it Is worn a" nil in the spirit of its shape. Tho hat which, when Upped back, displays the fluff of front ha.r is confessedly a bld for admiration of that Huff. ’1 he legborn hat will always be Ingenuous, mod­ est and young looking sb long as Its wide. flexible brim droops free and Its low crown avoids *ugge*ting he'ght or dignity. A mannish hat is utilitarian, trimmed jaunty or rakish, as tbo wearer may mxko It. A hood drawn close em­ phasizes the oval of a face and without relief—If, then, a face is plump and young, a close-drawn hood become* it woil. If it isn’t, oh! how such a hood reminds you of tho fact Whatever hood hides tho face loosely in Its folds, lotting the hair about brow, neck and ears add to tlie softness of the shadows. Is plot u res luely becoming in Its sugges­ tion of protection and reserve. Any hat that follows simply the lines of the head, the close drawn. smooth hair doing tbe same, la trim, gentlemanly, or lady-like, ns the wearer makes It. The hat with I transparent brim, which, though droop­ ing, lets tho eyes glance through, Is bound to bo deliciously seductive, unless worn by a woman who does not appre­ ciate the possibilities of her chapeau.

The wearing of brusscls affords some characteristic features for inves­ tigation. The pile warp, for instance, instead of running Off ordinary yarn beams, is wound on bobbins or minia­ ture beams, fixed in frames or a huge creel stationed behind the loom. Each color requires what is technically called n separate frame. ’ A five-frame bruMtiels is a carpet wilh this number of-colors succeeding each other in the same line of fabric. The manner in which tho various col­ on* are controlled - Jp other word^, in which they are concealed from or brought into view—ii an impoiUnt factor in the manufacture of this arti­ cle. On examining a brusseh earitet, it will be obsarved thntjhe individual threads forming the pile Heem either to be compos-od of several colors or to be substituted by yarns of other i shades, aceoiding to the section of the pattern being forn,ed. ' For instance, in the same line of the design, looking at the fabric lengthwise, apparently in the same thread, as many ua from three to five colors, .such as black, green, drab, scarlet, and blue, form the pile in succession. If those effects are not due to a variegated yarn, they result from the employment of five distinct threads, each of which is so controlled that it only appears in the pile when assisting to develop the design. To obtain a three-frame pattern comi>osed, say, of black, scarlet, and olive, at least three separate weaves are necessary—one for each shade. Thus the weave used in formiug the shed in the warp for the black pile is so arranged as to depress the scarlet 'and olive, while that for giving the scarlet pile conceals the black and cultural buildinx. measuring eight hundred 1 :u.d by AfchSiw Thia.

On a lounge In tho room lay a lad of 10 years dead, shot through the head. Jn lhe room abovo was another bod occupied by two young girls, one 13 and one J5.-both dead with, bullet-hnle* In their heada The dead are John Puterbaugh, hls wife, and four children. How they met tbelr terrible fate I* as yet not known, only by surmise. Tho general belief is that the terrible need was the work of the husband and father. The motive ls« not known, as Puterbaugh was a peace­ able man in comfortable circumstances, and it Is believed no trouble existed in the family. It seems certain that tho terrible crime was coramitud by Puterbaugh. By hls side, under his arm, lay a 32-calllwr six­ chambered revolver with all the cham­ ber* empty. The scene in the house was a horrible one and made tho* strongest hearted turn away. * The faces of tbe dead, though cohered with blood, were calm as though sleeping. No signs of tear were portrayed on any of them, and no evi­ dence of a struggle were seen any­ where. All seemed to have been killed while sleeping, and a'l were shot directljt through the skull In every case tho pistol was placed close to the head, as jtowder stains wore visible upon the pil­ lows or bed clothing. Puterbaugh was not a drinking min and had tho reputation of being an hon­ est and peaceable citizen. He suffered from grip last spring and since then has not been in the best of health, frequently complaining of a pain in hls head. Ho was a man about 38 or 40 Years of age, and hls wife was a year or two younger. Tho murdered children were as follows: Carrie, 15 years; Mabel, 13 years; Charles. 10 years; Ralph, 2 years. One •on, Allen. 17 year* of age, survives. He was away fromjiome at work. Puterbaugh was |n Beatrice a few days ago and is said to have then pur­ chased tho revolver with which tbo ter­ rible deed was committed.

Had not America during the last fifty years received millions of Irishmen, the condition of that island would have been deplorable. There were in 1841 over eight millions of that people exist­ ing on the brink of destitution, badly housed, badly clad, living on potatoe.\ and sometimes half starved, a ragged, servile horde of landless peasants. The emigration to America has given to five millions of Irishmen in the States prosperity and comfort, and the four millions and a half in Ireland have about ten times the wealth of the eight millions of semi-paupers in 1841.

Although Greenland was « o’.bnlzed by Europeans a thousand years ago. very Iltt e is -known abo .1 its Interior, and nothing in relation to its extreme north­ ern boundary. Somepniple claim that it Is a continent stretching perhaps as far as the nor>h pole, but geographers gener­ ally agree that It Is an bland, and that there Is an ocean passage connecting the Arctic Ocean with the Atlantic not very far north of the most northerly point so far reached on the west coa-t of Green­ land.

One of the reasons for believing In the existence of a channel at this point, con­ necting thu two oceans, is that a heavy -’flew of water comes down the coast It -comes, probably, from the Atlantic, be■ cause the tides can bo identified us At­ lantic tides as opposed to those of the .Pacific. Whether theso- 400 mile’ between ' Greenland and the pole are filled In with -only a frozen ocean broken up Into an Iiupoasabie ice gorge, or whether there Is a chain of islands giving tolerably easy access to the pole Is, of course, yet to be -determined. I'eary and his parly will be nb n to do ■'Jittie but preparatory work during the present year. The Kite will convey them to some suitable spot in I'rudhoe Land, and they will go Into winter quar-ters immedtataiy, where they will wait until nest summer fortheir great dash 'to the northern limits. They will de­ liberately get frozen in there for the winter.

Official analvmh have plainly shown its use even in snch cheap articles of everyday consumption os baking pow decs. The continued absorptionof am­ monia in even minute quantities as an adulterant in food is injurious, not merely from its effects upon the com­ plexion. but because it destroys the coating of the stomach . aud causes dyspepsia and kindred evils. ’Professor Long, of Chicago, ie au­ thority for the statement that if to fifty million' parts of water there is one part of ammonia the water is dangerous. 'Jhy Rod CURE SICK “ HEAD DrOBC^ The toughness an5 strength of the pony can scarcely be exaggerated. Ho will live through a winter that will kill the hardiest cattle. He worries through the long months when the snow has covered up the bunch grass on a diet of cottonwood boughs, which the Indian cuts down for him; and -in the spring it takes but a few weeks for him to soonr out into splendid con­ dition. He can go unheard -of dis­ tances. Colonel R. L Dodge records an in­ stance coming under ■ his observation where a pony carried the mails 300 miles in three consecutive nights, and back over the same road the next week, and.kept this up for six months with­ out loss of condition. He can carry any weight. Mr. Parkman speaks of a chief known as Le Cocbon. on ac­ count of his 300 pounds avoirdupois, who nevertheless rode his ponies as bravely as a man of half his balk. Tbe pony has often carried two people as one. There is simply no end to thi< wonderful product of the prairies. He works many years. So long as he will fatten np in the spring his age is im­ material. - The absence of crest in tbe pony suggests the enrions query of what hsx become of the proud arching neck of his ancestors, the barb. There are two ways of accounting for this. The Indian’s- gag bit, invariably applied with a jerk* throws up the jsony’s head instead of bringing it down, as the slow and light application of the school curb will do. and this tends to develop the ewe neck. Or a more sufficient reason may be found in the fact that the starvation which the pony under­ goes in the winter months tends to de­ plete him of every superfluous ounce of flesh.—Baltimore American. jwatoutttaa.

Gnmhllng in England. In aristocratic society in England gambling has always been one of the agencies to while away time and get rid of the guineas. Very nearly all /he ladies bet on the races, and incline to any gambling that is going. Many of them meet regularly for baccarat, roulet, or any other banking game, and lose and win appreciably. Englishmen who gamble for high stakes, however, always'do it away from home, at their clube, or in private quarters. As an instance of how your lordly Britisher backs his judgment, one Londoner, a few weeks ago. in an afternoon lost $35,000 to a friend, but retrieved this and won $75,000 more from his opjionent before dinner. The only club now given to high play is tbe very aristo­ cratic organization known iT" the Ceecee Tree Club, in St. James street, St. James Square. This is not far from the quarters of the Field which was raided and broken into by the po­ lice last year. This latter was not a club, but a private hell run by a man named Seaton, for the express purpose of plucking young and plunging mem­ bers of the aristocracy. The game was baccarat, and individual looses often ranged from $50,000 to $100,000 in a single night. The group of players who were captured and arraigned in court embraced a dozen names promi­ nent in the peerage, but they were dis­ missed with light fines. After a night in jail, JBeaton, the proprietor, escaped with a fine of $2,500, which, as he had made a fortune out of the place, he was entirely willing to pay. .

Observation ought to tell u* whether we are mote truthful in the win­ ter than in the summer, and whether the national habit of ruing ice-water for a beverage is an attempt to counteract the veracity-destroying power ot a high ten»|»ernture.

He is a Member of Parliament and a clever man withal. Addressing a Scotch audience the other day he had something suggestive and interesting to say alrout libraries. There were, he said, in the public libraries of Eurnpe more than 21,000,000 printer! volumes, aud, “astonishing to relate.” in those of America .*>0,000 000, while Australia had 1,000,000—about 7'2,000,­ 000 in all. The private libraries of these countries would, he thought, bring the total number of books in'usc up to the enormous number of 100,000,000. Within tho Inst decade England has made great advances in the establish­ ment of public libraries, but she is still far behind the I'nitcd States in this respect. Indeed, the superior facilities for popular education from this source which this country offers as compared with European countries may well be described us “astonishing.” But even more astonishing, perhaps, is the fact that the greatest city,of this country, New York, stands almost alone among its fellows in that it has no free public library of a size proportionate to the needs of its people.

Step right in; you’re next, sir," called a cheery voice from-an open door. The hairy gentle­ man ascended the three creaking stairs that led to the door, oroxeed the bend­ ing veranda, and wa* then u>hered into the "barber shop” by a very clean­ looking man, whose eyes twinkled with mirth, and whose line wero continually stretched in quiet smiles. It was only a small shop; a 5-cent shop, in fact, and it was evident that it was a shav­ ing shop to which men went because they needed a shave and not because they wanted to enjoy a nap in a soft chair. The chair itself was quite an institution. Once upon a fime it might have been new, but that must have been when the water came up to Montgomery street. Although it was battered and worn, and thongh the stuffing did protest against farther service, and had shoved its w uv through tho green upholstering, still it way better than one would expect to see in o nickel-limit establishment. A small wavy-glass mirror hung upon tho wall in front of the chair, and in the corner of the room, on an old “what­ not" si aud, was a razor. Upon a washstand were a water-basin,* a lamp aud a shaving mug filled with lather. On the floor near the washstand was a pitcher of cold water. Tho victim with the grizzly, l>card left his hat in tho hall, climlied into the chair, closed hi* eyes and prepared for tho sacrifice. Tho merry barber lathered him well, then scraped him scientifically, rubbed French chalk over the old fellow’s jaws, combed his hair and turned him out as good as new. “Haven’t drawn a drop^of blood yet," said the barber, as he flashed his razor through the air. and yelled “Next!" at u young laborer who was falling asleep in one of the two chairs. "How do you expect to make it par?" asked a Chronicle reporter, who had dropped in. “Well, I calculate there are from 10,000 to 15,000 men in this toxrn who are pretty hard up. Some time they will all want to shave. Cost 'em only a nickel. This is only mr second day. I’ve got no gas, but I’ll light that lamp, put it on a chair, and there you are." . “Do you give the victim* life insur­ ance ixjlicie# ?" “Ob, no: they’re all right. Razor may pull a little, but that’s all right. We'll get along. I rent the bouse: rent out the other three room*, and I sleep here in tho shop. Furniih clean towels, too. Some fellows are particu­ lar. you know. Drop in again." The 5-cent barlzeru pained Richards.

The King of Siam is said to have in one'of hi* country palaces a wonderful pavilion. It was bnilt by a Chinese enginter ns a refuge for the King dur­ ing the extreme heat of the summer. The walls, ceilings and floors aro formed of pieces of plate gla-is an inch thick. These are so perfectly fitted together with a transparent cement that the joints are invisible, and do fluid can pane rate. The pavilion is *28 feet long and 17 wide, and stands in the middle of a huge basin of beautiful­ ly colored marbles. When the King enters tbe pavilion tho single door i# closed aud cemented. Then the sluice­ gates are opened, and the Basin ia tilled with water. Higher and higher it rise* until the pavilion is covered, and only the ventilators at the lop connect it with the open air. When the beat of the sun is so great that the water al­ most boils on the surface of the freshest fountain* thia pavilion is deliciously cool. And this is the way the King of Siam ooola himself off In hot weather. It sounds very delightful. It i* easy iu large cities to determine by the sense of smell alone the locality in whi?h one is. The dry goods dis­ trict has it* clear new cotton odor. In tho portion of the city where whole­ sale liquor bonse* predominate you get tho malty smell, and in the horse and carriage dia*.rict the odor ia a quite distinctive aud well-defined. If a man is of a curious turn of mind, let him count the different varieties of olfac­ tory disturbance that greet his nostrils as he walks half a dozen blocks. The ledaurant. the bakery, tho confection­ ery o4ablishment, the tailor’s, the liquor store, the printer's and book, binder’s, the boot and shoe store* — each of thesa ha* its own odor to welltrained »o*e<, and when the odor is accumulated, the location of district# by the sense of smell ia made possible.

There is nothing. very remarkable about .this fact, since many kinds of animals make pillaging forays upon the habita­ tions of men; but the surprising part <.f Emin’s narrative is the statement that in these thieving raids the chim­ panzees make ut>e of lighted torches to hunt out the fruits. “If I had not been myself a witness of this spectacle," Mr. Stanley reports Emin as saying, “nothing would ever have made me believe that any race of monkeys possessed, the art of mak­ ing fire." . ()n one occasion, Emin says, a chim­ panzee of this intelligent tribe stole a drum from the huts of his European troops and made nff with it, beating it as he ran. 'Ihe monkey took the drum to the headquarters of his own “j eople,” who were evidently much charmed with it, for tho Egyptian soldiers often heard tho monkeys beating it vigorously,but irregularly. Sometimes iu the middle of the night some sleepless chimpanzee would get up and go to beating Ihe drdm. • But what the other chimpanzees tbonght of this midnight musical 1 erformance will never bo known posi­ tively, but from the fact that no sound of battle and slaughter among the in­ telligent chimpanzees ever followed the Egyptians were forced to conclude that they liked it. Here at least, therefore, wo had an indiaation that the grade of intelli­ gence of oven the chimpanzee of Msoogwa is still far below that of the human race. It was 6 o’clock in the Bowery, the not particularly witching hour when the toilers of the great city are strug­ gling homeward. On a corner stood a very strikiag example of “one of the finest." airily swinging his club and observing the trim young working girls trip over the broad street crossing. Suddenly he beeame aware that a very prettv young woman htid taken her stand on the corner near him. He noted the blueness of her eyes and the wavy softness of her blonde hair. Throwing back his shoulders and giving hi* mustache a twist, he meandered showily by the young woman, and grazed tenderly into her face. So great is the confidence of womankind in the benevolence of tha New’ York police that this unprotected young woman looked back st, tha -stalwart guardian of the ]>eaqe with almcst grateful eyes for the interest he showed in her. The officer thereupon gave his mustache another twist, and »< he passed ogain before the girl he raised his eyebrows just a little, as if to say: “I see yon, my little gazelle.” Presently a yourg man, who had hurried across the Bowery, stopped Hi front of the girl, and. rai-ing his hat, spoke a few words to her. At the same instant the heavy hand of the policeman fell on the young man’s shoulder. “Here, here," growled the officer. “You’ll have to come along with me." "What for?" demanded the young man. looking up in alarm. "For mashin’ this young lady," re­ plied the policeman. “Why, she’s my fiancee." “She’s your what?" “My fiancee." “Aw. what are you givin’ me ? Don’t try any fl an cay business on me. Come along." But now the young lady herself spoke up with. “Really, Mr. Officer, this is my young man. We are going to he married.” The large red face of the policeman became purple and he se.-med to have a fit. After he was able to speak he said: “Say. young feller, don’t talk Portu­ guese or Dutch to a policeman after this. If you’d said you and she was Inquiring Lady—Do you , always keeping company first off, there drink beer whan you are thirsty? wouldn’t have l>een no trouble.” Baron Snickensnts—No. ma’am.

FlST.?”.* "I? 7rrc,«i tad country aurrounded the camp of theState militia, captured the troop* and convicti employed in place of the strik­ ing miners., marched them off to thedepot and pat them on a train and shipped them to Knoxville. The camjT was on a I.tile knoll In ahollow and aurrounded on al! sides by mountain*. About 2,000 miner*, farm­ er* and other nativea wly> have no oecnpation at all took possession of the hill*around the Bricevllle camp. Fifteen hundred of these were armed with rifle*, the rest had shot-guns and pistols. They came from all the mines in &. radius of fifty miles. Tbe organisation was complete and their leaders placed them along, tiie hillsides witn military precision. At tbo call to arms the little garrison turned out gallantly and prepared for defense. Il wa* ap­ parent at a glance that a tight would result In a massacre. A mooting of thd oflicers was called. Some declared that a stout resistance to the first attack would bo sufficient and the mob would withdraw. Other* thought that it would be suicidal, yet every one was In favor of doing his duty, notwithstand­ ing the exposed position they were to defend. Tho miners <*!<ed a parley and, were met on neutral ground by CoL Sevier. They stated that they had suf­ ficient force to overwhelm the soldiers, but did not care to shed blood if the convicts wore quietly turned over to thorn. This request wa* emphatically refused. The minors then asked Colonel Sevier If he would remove his troops and take tho convict* with him. He asked what would be done to tho mining company"* property, which wo9 -also under hi* protection. They replied that it would not be in­ jured. He also asked if an attack would be made on the Knoxville Iron Com­ pany’s stockade just below Briceville. It such was Intended, he would fall bark there and fight it out regardless of tbo consequences. The leaders replied that no attack would be made. The troops then marched out of camp, taking with them the convicts, all tbeir commissary silpplles and baggage. They marched to Briceville and there were loaded In box cars or whatever could be had. and the entire lot sent to Knoxville. Sympathy, which has been entirely on the side of the miners, is now against them for their lawless act at a time when everything was* being done to re­ lieve the situation, and the great mass of citizens say the law must be observed and that Gov. Buchanan must enforce the law. regardless of cost Tbo sentiment Is that he must send all the State troops, who are few and poorly organized, to the frdnt at oncex and put experienced men and oflicers In charge. If he has not force enough bo must call for volunteers. A-report has been circulated that he asked tho President for 500 regulars, but the truth of this cannot oe verified. It Is known that the leaders of the mob were not miners, either last week or to­ day. One Eugene Merrill led them in each instance. He is a merchant at Briceville, but is said to bo a determined man. Ho spoke in reply to Gov. Bu­ chanan last week and really treated tho Governor with Indignity. Other leaders are known, and tho sentiment Is that they must bo arrested and taken to Nashville ns the law pro­ vides, and punished. The* miners have appointed a committee io seo what dispatches shall be sent out and what not, and this commit­ tee or some one of it Is in the telezra h office all tho time and reads all tho mat­ ter sent out by the newspaper men. Tho committee, whether self-appointed or by tho miners' organization, told tbo o, orator on duty at the key that if ho did not let them read tho messages they would cut the wires. Tbo wire is a pri­ vate one and docs all business. Including railroad and train dispatching. There are reports that the railroad company will call for xpeclal detectives to guard tholr property. Another view of tho situation I* the danger to capital Invested at Coal Creek. Large sums of money have been-invest­ ed there by men in New York and other places, and the great development of tho properties Is largely. due to this money. Costly machinery is exposed to the fury of tho mob. Citizens say such blghhandod outrage will aestroy public con­ fidence, and money will cease to com© In for development* now just started. There is another bad feature connect­ ed with the affair which has not yet been brought out That Is tbe conduct of tbe militia that has been on these g ounds. Many were allowed to go out­ ride to get food, and they mingled freely with the miners. These troop* told tbe miners that they did not want to guard tho------ convicts, and to come and got them at once, that they would not fight them for the convict*. As the troops were marchoJ off tho miners jeered and hooted them, and yelled, "Toll Buck to send some more dudes; we will cat them as last as they come." Cltl.enssay that the insult is to the entire State and that the Governor must arrest and punish tbe leaders. The mob Is celebrating Its victory by cheering, carousing, and shooting, it shou'd bo stated that, a force ot 5u0 men, properly equipped and led, could subdue the entire party, for they have no idea of openly facing a force. They knew from tbe statements made them that tho troops would not fight, but every one feel* that the mob has made a bad mis­ take, and that they will bo subdued. Id other words, they have lost public sym­ pathy.

THE CONTESTS. Quite a large crowd congregated on Main street Wednesday evening to witness the hurdle race and the tug of war, and both events proved worthy of the interest manifested. The hurdle race was from the cross­ walk in front of Tinkler’s barber shoo to the one In front of Glasgow’s hard­ ware Store, ten hurdles intervening. The race was won by Frank Barber. Coy Smith and Sam Bailey divided second money, over a misunderstand­ ing of the rules. The tug-of-war between Castleton and Maple Grove was won by the for­ mer, though was claimed unfairly. It was dark before the contest com­ menced, and the street was so crowded that it was impossible for the judges to get a clear space about the rope* and it was claimed that Castleton had assistai-ce from outsiders. However, this contest, owing to the dis»iati$faction, will be tried over again next Wednesday evening, for a purse of jG.OO, which will all go to the winning team. Only ten men will iw allowed in each team, and a clear space will be ropeil In on Main street and no one will be allowed within the ropes except the contestants snd the judges. The contest will occur at6.30u'clock sharp, before dark, so that ;both' sides will have a fair, square show. Now, gen­ tlemen of Castleton and Maple Grove, get your teams together and settle the quest ion as to which are the best men. Remember, a purse of •5.00 to the win­ ning team. The band will furnish music for the occasion, and everybody is invited to come and see the fun. HERB’S SOME NEW TROTING STOCK FOR BAHRY COUNTY. List of foals the" property of E.

THROWS IT OFF. There |s no disease more disagree­ able and uncomfortable than catarrh. It attacks the young and the old, and it is too often allowed to take its course^ In such cases It frequently becomes, dangerous. The poison ex­ tends to the throat and lungs, result­ ing in complications that are not read­ ily overcome. All forms of catarrh, however, disappear before S. S. S., and that medicine is now recognized as an almost infallible remedy for the dis­ ease. It regulates the liver, improves tin* digestion, and brings about con­ ditions that enable the system to throw off the malady. Catarrh and its attendant aggravations disappear before S. S. K., and so do all other dis­ eases that grow out of a bad liver and impure blood. TO COLORADO VIA BURLINGTON ROUTE, ONLY ONE NIGHT ON THE ROAD. Leaving Chicago at 13X) P. M.t or St. Louis at S:2ti A.

One of the largest pearl fishing grounds in the world is In the Gulf of California. ’The pearls,” says a correspondent, “are not generally reg­ ular in shape or very pure iu color, but some are ot large size, and many of the rare black pearls are found. The div­ ers are nearly all Indians and their equipment are of the simplest kind consisting only of a liasket hung around the neck, in which to collect the oysters, a knife to detach them from the rocks and a stone with a cord attachefl. When a diver goes down he takes the cord between his toes, the wr'ght of the stone carrying him at once to the bottom. He gathers oysters as long as bis breath holds out. and then arises to"the surface, to de­ scend again in fifteen minutes. Sume of the divers are wonderfully expert, and can remain under lhe water as much as two minutes before ri^ng -to the surface. The mortality among them is fearful, for the Gulf of Cali­ fornia Is infested with huge man-eat­ ing sharks, who carry off scores of men every year.’’ ________ There to more C«l«Th !u ihk vwtion of !he coantry tbau all other <1!»cm<m> put toeetbe.-. nod until th- la*t few years was- fUl poe.-d u> be Incurable.

The distance to elghty-five nrtlee, and to make.-the trip In sn hour would mean a^p-ed of about a mile and a half a minute. Nu small amount, uf incredulity has been expressed concerning tbe enter­ prise. It is claimed by the iDConxtratorti that they have thw exclusive use uf two patents, which will contri­ bute materially to the aucceMof the enterprise. One is an indicator to ap­ prise the conductor of any otwtruction on the track fora mile ahead, making possible a much greater speed than would otherwise be safe. The other uatent is on a dynamo. The road will be double-tracked, and each track will consist of three raiw, the middle rail lielng used as a conductor. It is sup­ posed to build three powerhouses, one at Milwaukee, another at Ciilcago and the third al some intervening point. The company expects to get right­ of-way much cheaper than steam rail­ roads could. It will need but twentyfive feet In width, while a ^team rail road requires 100 feet, and it will not injure the surrounding property so much as a steam railroad, as there will be no smoke, and the tracks will 1ms elevated, rendering injury to stock aud human life almost impossible.

Dr. Blyth has recorded thirty cases of ammonia pois­ oning io the small London district of which he is health officer: Professor MitcbeU mentions twenty-two eases, and four have occtired during the short time Dr. Jenkins has been con­ nected with the coroner's office in Cases of slow poisoning from am­ monia are of constant occurence among men who work In its .manufac­ ture, or even In decomposing substan­ ces which give it off in considerable quantities. Ammonia, slowly and from day to day taken in the system, causes the complexion to lose its fresh­ ness, and the skin bf men who get heavily impregnated with it has a dis­ agreeable blotched and discolored ap­ pearance. Taken Into the stomach from day to day in even the small quantities used to adulterate food, such as baking powder, it not only Injures the com­ plexion but attacks the lining of- the stomach, anti is the source of much iil health. Tbe recent rapid increase in the use of ammonia'for various purposes, and the consequent increase in its manu­ facture, have made it one of the most easily obtained poisons, and, although everybody is familiar with it in some form, there is a surprising amount of ignorance of its dangerous qualities. Its use as an adulterant in any food preparation Is simply u crime and us a crime should be punished.

When marching, the blue and the gray uniforms will alternate io every rank, but over all will float one flag, the stars and stripes.

" At last we reach her, and I mount to the upper deck, having my bundle thrown up after me In a very unceremonious mannet*. I already begin to realize that I am sot feeling very happy—I grasp my bunllc and look around. “Down stairs" says a gruff voice, and another uncere­ monious shove brings me cpportto a rickety-looking ladder, down which I have to climb. My Incumbrance causes me rather to fall- than walk down, and when I reach the lower deck. 1 sit on the bundle and sjgh: . I haven't been sitting there a minute before I get another ungentle shove, and a gruffey voice exclaims, “Down­ stairs!* “What!" I gasp, “more descent?"

Alas: I speedily find out that u Is a very general practice. However. I go through tho door, nnd, after many struggles, manage to squeeze my bundle through the aperture, and there I see two long tows, on each side, of wl:a’. appear to ino to bc«shalvcs. A young fellow In shirt sleeves Is arrang­ ing something on one of the shelve.-, and I timidly venture to ask: “Which Is my bunk, please?" “Any bloody ono y<-r like'," ha tays; “fust come, fust served." Then seeing mo perplexed, he kiudly adds, “Yore, shove yer things up yero next to mine," and he lifts my bundle and throws U on to one ot the top shelves. Then the horrible truth dawns upon me. This Is to be my bed-room, that my bunk, and the slight partitions, two Inches high, aro all that will separate dozens of us during our forthcoming •lumbers. Wo're off!

An aqueduct to bring pure, fresh water to Greytown is In construc­ tion. There Is every reason to suppose that tho canal will be ready for opera­ tion in 1897. When It Is completed tho following figures will show the enormous saving In distance It will bo between those point*.

Ita objects are: “The preservation of those kind and fraternal feelings which have bound together -with strong cords of love and affection the comrades in arms of many battles, sieges aud marches; to make these ties available In works ana results of kludneM, of favor and mutual aid to those in need of assistance; to make provision where it Is not already done for the support, care and educa­ tion of soldiers' orphans, and for tho maintenance of the widows of dcceaaed soldiers; for tbe protection and assist­ ance ot disabled soldiers, whether dis­ abled by wounds, sickness, old age or misfortune, and for tho establishment and defense of the late soldiery of the ____MtcinoANsot.nfXHS^xoKtmreB'z.

BuL as holding tbe reins is, no doubt, Justly considered a masculine accom­ plishment, it follows that when a woman has become an expert In handling tho ribbons ovor the sleek back of a thor­ oughbred she should affect a mannl»h attire.

It was cold but clear, and we wore havin' tho best klud of weather, when, ono morn In', at daylight, I heard the lookout sing out *SaU, hoi’ I was on deck in a second, ye kin bet—no more sliding upon ice-fields for mo—but when I got on deck I see- that what the man had taken for a sail was a big berg, dead ahead, with the Ice all molted, so that a ship every time. “It was a reuser, four hundred feet high, and the nearer wo got tho stranger It looked.

When that mass of ice sunk, ye could have heard it, for six miles, the noire it made, and we see a sea a coming toward us, fifteen-foot high. We got the vonsel so it struck her end for end, but for a minute I thought the masts would go out of her. But she met it well, and for a few minutes we were as taken up that I never looked at the Iceberg; then I heard the second mate say. ‘For heaven’s sake, captain, there’s tho gloat of tho Marthy Walker!’ “I first though: he'd gone craxy, but I looked where his hand was p’ intin’, and there, two hundred foot In tho air, was tho old Marthy, sure enorgh, as natural as life,, standing out from the :oe and rWn’ up till she came to two hundred and fifty foot, by my reckonin’, from water level; and every man aud boy on board saw her just as plain as they ever saw anything In tbelr lives, only she looked Just I ko a 'spirit; kind M if a c’oud was In between her and us.

Vlait The Works of tbe Barker Scale Com­ pany Burned. Shortly after one o’clock Sunday morning the Inhabitants of the village were again awakened by tbe claugor of the nre bell, summoning them to witness the destruction of another one of Nashville's manufacturing institu­ tion*, the factory of the Barker Scale Company. The fire was discovered In its Infancy by Amlel Schulze and Charley • Del­ ler, and had there been axes, ladders and pails bandy, it might have been extinguished. They ran up town and gave the alarm, and the citizens re­ sponded promptly, but before proper utensils with which to combat the fire could be secured the whole build­ ing was in flames, and all that could be done was to stand idly by and watch It bum. The fire started at tbe south-west corner of the building, near the front end of the boiler, and when first discovered was on the out­ side of the building, and some of the early arrivals aver that there was no fire on tbe inside, which would indi­ cate Incendiarism, which is strongly suspected. The fire gained headway rapidly, and by half-past two there was nothing left of the factory but ruins. None of the contents were saved, with the exception of one pair of oue bushtl grain scales. The Joss is about S3,000, with not a dollar of In­ surance. Ed. French, who worked for the company, lost all his tools, val­ ued at about >100. In all probability the works will not be rebuilt in Nash­ ville. Here Is a chance for “neighbor­ ly Hastings.’’ * WEDDING BELLS. ethodist episcopal church. Rbv. A. K. Btxwamt, Pastor.

Tha most eminent bacteriologists in the world with great unanimity announce the fact Doctor Klein, the eminent English bacteriologist, has published an elab­ orate report in the nineteenth annual report of the local government, in which ho enters into the details of his methods of investigation and hft testa. Hft paper qpntoins several fact* of prime importance, a knowledge of which should be generally known. Among them are the following: Some of the lower animals, particularly cows and house cats, are susceptible to the disease, and instances are cited in which the domestic cat has com­ municated the infection to tho family to which it belonged, with fatal re­ sults. He has also demonstrated the presence of the infection in the milk of cows previously inoculated with diphtheria bacilli. He takes occasion to emphasize an­ other fact which ft of great practical importance and should always be borne in mind by health officers, to wit: Tho contagion of diphtheria ft to be classed with those which can exist and thrive outside the human body. “It ft a matter of oommon be­ lief," he says, “that a room may retain active tho diphtheritic contagion for a very long period; that milk may be not'onlyjhe vehicle but even the mul­ tiplying* ground of the diphtheritic contagion; that sewer air aud sewage may contoin and be tho means of dis­ tributing thft contagion." These* points aro of much imj>ort in investi­ gating now outbreaks of this disease. Nervous headache is, perhaps, the most difficult of all to describe or to treat, inasmuch as it ft not a disease but a sympton, the cause of which may be' in some remote part of tbe system. One form of nervous headat-ho, which is unmistakable, though not always understood as such, oon-ists of a dull grinding pain at the back of the head near the base of the brain, where the nerves of the spinal cord enlarge and ramify for the forma­ tion of the brain. Pain in thft local­ ity, frequently down the neck, ft a sure indication of impaired nervous action, and should be treated accord­ ingly. In another direction dervous trouble produces a violent headache— that ft from tho medium of the stom­ ach. With many people any deep or sudden emotion, such as grief, fear, or even joy may partially or entirely paralyze tho action of the stomach; there ft an utter absence of appetite, and the serious headache which re­ sults ft simply the, indication of tho trouble.

A prominent English gentleman, who, while traveling through the States, had occasion to do considerable riding through the smaller towns and .country -teSistricts, once remarked that while the buildings he saw represented a high standard of clvUteatiom.tlie roads were still frontier highways, on which little thought or money had been spent. To tho expeditions traveler tho wind­ ing roads so often seen seem to bo tho greatest possible distance between two points, and are not only an annoyance, but cause an absolute loss of Umo and money. ' Tho loMM resulting from the imper­ fect building of roads, if «eou or felt in the aggregate, would call the attention of tho public to this work until evils would be remedied; but- unfortunately the same Indifference Is Inhuman nature which the old Eastern farmer showed ■when he drove, every’day around the Ereat stump in bls driveway. Instead f trying to remove It, bo said: “Oh, I’s only a little bother to drive around ft, but 'twould take a.day to dig It out." In building roads In this country too little attention Is paid to two Important things, viz., good surveying and proper drainage. ' Hood limits should bo as straight and clearly defined as tho rows of tho marker In a cornfield. The Roipans, without consideration of expense, always made their roads tbo shortest distance between two points to bo connected. This will not of course bo found to be practicable In many In­ stances; but, white tho road must be laid In such place and manner us to make tho least uxpeuse of building and repairing, some sacrifice of money and labor cau be afforded, when tho question of loss of time Is to bo considered. Of course there can bo no arbitrary rule In regard to width, but many country roads are Inconveniently narrow. I have often driven over long stretches of road In tho State of Illinois, whore to meet a team meant certain collision, aud havo sev­ eral times seen a light buggy lose its balance and women, children, and numerous bundles of-.dry goods and gro­ ceries roll In general confusion (down tho embankment, simply because of too narrow a road-bed. A bod amply wide enough for the meeting and passing of vehicles, with a strip of sod five or six feet wide on either side, would bo much more satisfactory, and Its construction would require but little more labor or expense. For country roads tho greatest In­ clination should not exceed a rise of Trorn five to seven feet in ono hundred. which, w.th slight repairs, would last vote special unounU for road building. gan, a strip of corduroy through a mariih thirty rods long caused two deaths years agu The township paid in oue instance, and losses re­ sulting from aecidunts from time t& time would mako np small sum; yet tbe road remains In an unsafe condition, while at cither approach- to this strip is material enough to mako a road sixty fret wide, and Its use would remove two long, heavy grades. The Indifference and Ignorance of farmer* in working out a poll-tax Is unoxplainab'e. A half dozen men, with two or three teams, meet to repair a road which is used for heavy traffic. These rL-en'aro obliged many tknes to haul loads over roads which havo no foundation drainage and Imperfect sur­ face drainage, full of h^les and wash­ outs; yet without plan or method they gather, ahd by tho use of tbe scraper the dirt from tho roadside Is dumped on­ to tho rondbbd, which has not been pre­ pared to receive It. Ono or two enterprising citizens fill up two of the ten holes without removing the catvw, while tbe others sit about ou the lull fence and dfscuss tho tariff and iefactory in many ways, a proper use of existing laws would bring about a state of affairs more fitting to our present’ civilization. Lot road district* unite In a proposition to begin at ascertain point and make thoroughly good roads for certain distances each year. A small stretch of road, well built, with proper drainage, would furnish an Inspiration to all who had occasion to use it, which might lead to an enthusi­ asm for this too often neglected branch of public work. No method of building can do away with tho need fur constant repairing. Much )aU>r and expense could be saved by taking tho work in hand soon enough.

If this work could be done oftener, the now material would quickly Join with the old. If put on In small quanti­ ties, and the hindrance to traffic over patched places would bo in a degree avoided. Iu filling holes the work should bo so thoroughly done that tho rounding surface of the road may be ob-. served, Instead of burdening traffic with a heap of stones In the roadbed. Unless strong reasons exist to tho con­ trary the work should ba done when the ground is Wet In filling long ruts only short pieces should be filled at a time If work is all done at once, vehicles avoid the place, and new ruts arc formed. Tho usa of tho roller in tho building of roads is too well known to Deed mention, but a section of patched road, which Is practically useless for six months In a year, could be made much more suitable for traffic by Its use.

If possible, and tho holo filled with stone orsomchaxd materiaL The custom of dumping stone, regard­ less of size, Into low places, and then covering with roadside dirt, causes much trouble. Tbo small stones soon work to the bottom and tho largo ones to tho surface, where they become slippery, and as they are net bound together they cause a Jolting which Is harder on horses and vehicles than hauling through mud would be. The Chinese roods are built, many of them, of solid rock. If some system which was a compromise between tbo macadam and Chinese systems could be carried out, tho problem would ba solved. The macadam roads, where they can bo afforded, arc undoubtedly tho best. A study of tho Telford end macadam methods by all citizens interested in pub­ lic affair* would bo very helpful. The width, depth and mothod of consi ruction must bo governed by clrcum 6tance3,'but tho depth shtfuld, of course, depend upon tho amount of traffic tho rood is required to support For heavy traffic a depth of from twelve to eigh­ teen Inches should bo observed. Tho stones ihould be small, with sharpedges, aud should bo closely pocked. The road­ bed should be dug in tho form of a trcuch tho required width, where thor­ ough work can bo afforded. After pack­ ing the stone tho Interstices should be filled with chips, and finely broken stone placed on top. This should be packed and pulverized with the roller, then covered with a layer of gravel or screen­ ings. Of course the expense of a road of this character would prevent its use at tbe present time in country districts except in tbe worst places, and In such contingencies tho most thorough method is the most economical. Considerable attention has been given to surface drainage, but many well-built roads are watersoakod until ruined for lack of proper sub-drainage. Good drainage should be obtained regardless of ex­ pense; the necessary ditching may bo utilized for draining adjacent lands. In many places in Illinois swampy meadow lauds have been redeemed by the ditching made for road drainage.

Tbo main Ingredient was the meaL Rye has never been a popular food prod* oct in this country, except among those of our people who came from the conti­ nent of Europe. Occasionally the carl, frost would nip the corn to tbe milk and the farmers would be obliged to rely mainly upon ryo. Tho time seems to have come for corn tp folly repay all it| Indebtedness to rye as a substitute, not only upoii the continent of Europe but here at home, where tho Indebtedness was incurred. Wheat has very nearly taken the place nt all other cereals as food for m in in this country, unless It be that tho South still dings to corn. Tbe working classes ok- the world, on tho contrary, can not afford “white bread," especially at soml-famlne price*. Whatever tho producers may realize on their crops, tho European consumer fa bound to pay exceptionally dear for his bread, be It black or white The latest edition of Mulhall gave the rye product of Europe as l,2fr0,000,0l.h bushel*, and of wheat as 1,167,000,00(1 bupho’*, a difference In favor of ryo of 123,ooo,C03 bushels. Those figures glv- a fair Idea of tho relative yield of ordin­ ary years. Fully one-half of all the ryo of Europe Is grown In Russia which produces nt least three bushels of rye to one of wheat, while the United State* produces about fourt cu bushels of wheat to ono of ryo There arc not far from 200,000.(100 people in Europe who roly upqn rye as the staff of life. \\ hen, therefore, Russia prohibits the exporta­ tion of ryo, as it did tho 11th of this month. It may bo said to take the bread out of tho mouths of many millions of people and compel them to cither go hungry or eat something else Fortunately for i h<« poor of Europe, there Is every prospect of tbe greatest corn crop In this country that was ever known In agricultural history. Thera seems to bo a disposition In some quar­ ters to condemn tho policy of Russia as cruel. If there were no other source* of supply, it would bo mean to shut off the exportation summarily and rigidly, but there is really a good quantity of food In tho world, and ample facility for Its transportation. Russia might keep every kernel of its rye at home, and tho United States would come to the re cue withitscorn. Tho sooner al tho jartles in interest know what to expect tho 'better It will be. it is highly probable that the lesson of necessity will outlive tho necessity dtsolf, and that American corn will gain .a foothold In Europe during tho next year from which It can not bo dislodged. Russia may bo building better for tho farmeni of the United States than for the Russian peasantry. Ordinarily a country is anxious to find a market for its surplus, aryl so far from putting an embargo on exports is happy In the prospect of' a foreign demand. It Is probable that American corn will bo able to retain in future years much oi the advantage It Is about to enjoy. It Russia is- not careful it will overdo tho ftrohibltion policy and inflict permanent njury on its own agriculture. Certain It Is that corn Is quite as good food as rye, and many of the millions who try It for a year or so will learn to pre er IL That feature of the present relations of corn to ryo may prove to bo" the most Important of the whole case. WILL FIGHT THE LAW. Tho bankers of Indiana have an­ nounced their determination to tight tho proposed effort of tho State Board of Tax Commissioners to compel them to expose tbe accounts of their depositors. With that end ,ln view tho associated banksof Indianapolis have already taken action, and at a meeting of a special com­ mittee, composed of President Haug Iicy, of tho Indianapolis National; President Gallup, of the Meridian National; and President Malott, of the Indiana Na­ tional, a course of action based upon tbo advice of Addison C. Harris, tho attor­ ney for the Clearing House Association, was agreed upon. . Bank officials refuse to say much as to the course they will pursue, but the senti­ ment against tho law and Its enforce­ ment Is pronounced and unanimous., President Haughey says that there Is not a banker but will refuse to make bis customer's business relations known. “A merchant may have a large balance on deposit,"* said he, “and he may have: given his check for two-thirds of the amount; but, as we havo not received the-check, ho is credited with the full balance, and upon this they propose to tax him.

CANCER-: Fortune Left By a Gambler. tcorrwoBT. nm. AU.»uairra HtwxnvED.1 Old New Yorkera may ’remember Dingee's famous club house in lower Greene street. l-Yom 1800 to 1850 it was the most fashionable gambling house in the nietropohx, its founder, Alphonse Dingee., haring been the tintt to intro­ duce routot* and rouge ft nar into the new world. It was in IMO or a little later that ill health obliged his son Cyrill to sell the business out. He re­ tired to Ws country scat at Bricksburg, quite a palatial residence for those days, where he died shortly after, leava round million dollars and one child, a daughter, Daisy. Spite of the fact that she was popularly known through­ out* the country as the "gambler's daughter." there were several respect­ able young- men iu the place who would tafte been only too happy to administer ■an estate worth ti round million with Daisy thrown in for better or worse. But .Daisy Dingee knew what she wanted, anil it was nothing more nor less than un alliance with the most aristocratic family in the country, towit: the Delurys, whose large white munsiou at the other end of the town was as tumble down and shabby look­ ing a* Daisy’s was neat, fresh and well ■ kept. Mix* Dingee, therefore, pro­ ceeded to throw herself alk the head of oue Monmouth Delury, mentally and physically a colorless sort of an Indi­ vidual, who for wont of sufficient intel­ lect to mako an honest living passed Ma time going to seed with the thousand a? so acres of land belonging to him and his maiden sisters, Hetty, Prudence and Martha, three women who walked au stiff us they talked, although they never were known to discuss any subject other than the Dclury family. When Daisy’s proposition was made known to them they tried to faint, but were loo stiff to fall over and were obliged to content themselves with gasping out: "What, Daisy Dingee marry our brother, the head of the Dclury fam­ ily?” But it was the first idea that had ever entered the brother's head, and lie clung to it with a parent’s affection for hia firstborn. In u few months Mr. and Mrs. Monmouth Delury set out for Paris with that proverbial speed with which Americans betake themselves to the French capital when occasion of­ fers. They found it a much pleasanter place than Bricksburg. Delury Im­ proved rapidly and Daisy fell quite in lore with him, made her will In his fa­ vor, contracted the typhoid fever and died. Whereupon the really disconsolate widower sent for his three sisters to join him. They had but one objection to going—that was to part company with the dear old homestead, but they over­ came it the day after receiving Mon- i mouth's letter, which happened to be a Friday, and took the Saturday's steamer. To confess the truth, the Delurys hud been so land-poor that their spare.aristo­ cratic figures were rather the result of necessity than inclination. Six months of Paris-life under the l»enign protec­ tion of Dingee's round million made dif­ ferent women of them. It was wonderful what a metamorphosis Parisian dress­ makers and restaurateurs effected in their figures. They became round and plamp. T)iey stopped talking about Bricksburg, signed themselves the Misses Delury. of New York, enrolled themselves as patrons of art, gave ele-. gant dinners, and in a very short time set np pretentions to being the leaders of tbe American colony. But remorseless fate wns nt their heels. Figaro unearthed the secret of old Dingee's million and the Delurys suddenly found themselves the sensa­ tion of Paris, the butt of ridicule in the comic papers. Monmouth had been in poor health for several months and this killed him. Dingec's million was now in the eye of the law divided up among his three sisters, but fate willed it otherwise, for the following year Hetty, the eldest, died of Roman- fever and six months later Prudence fell a victim to rat poison in a small hotel at. Grasse, a city of de­ lightful odors in the south of France, ^hither Mie hod gone in a search of balmy nlr for her sister Martha, who had suddenly developed symptoms of consumption. Left thus alone In the world with old Dingee's rail lion and an incurable ail­ ment Martha’s only ambiHon was to reach Bricksburg and die in the old white Delury mansion. It seemed to her that its great, spacious nx>nw would enable her to lireathe more easily and to fight death off for possibly another their place of busily engaged in sorting onions. As the Winklctipn were only a little past fifty, and as strong as hickory knots, their families were quite satisfied to gut only a life estate in tire Dtngee million, for, Itarring accidents, the brothers bad twenty-five or thirty years to live yet. True. Brother John had a son. Cyrus, worthless wight, whpsc normal condi­ tion was alcoholic stupor, barely char-, acterixrd with sufficient lucidity to en­ able him to distinguish rotten vegetables from sound. “He will die years before hia father,” everyone remarked, "and then the gam­ bler's money will go where it ought to There hud been a fire next door to the Wink let ips alxnit the time the good news had arrived from Faris; a huge warehouse hud burned down leav­ ing a brick wall towering sixty feet above the old wooden tenement in which the brothers did business. They hud given notice to the authorities, but the inspectors had pronounced the wall perfectly safe. So tho two brothers continued to come und^'o, in their best Sunday clothes, however, for they were only engaged in settling np their old business. Suddenly, without the slightest warn­ ing, the huge wall fell with a terrific crash upon the wooden tenement, crushing it like un egg shell. When the two brothers were taken out from the ruins John wns pronounced dead and u coroner's permit was given to remove him to a neighboring nndertakcr's es­ tablishment. William lived six hours, conscious to the last and grateful to an all-wise Providence that his worthless nephew would now be excluded from any control over the Dingee million. John Winklctip was a grass widower, his wife, un Englishwoman, having abandoned him and returned to Eng­ lund, and for many years he had made ' his home .with his only other child, a widowed daughter, Mrs. Timmins, who was openly opposed to many of her father's peculiar notions, as she termed them, one of which was his strong ad-1 Tocacy of cremation, he being one of the original stockholders and at the time of his death a director of the Long island Cremation society. Consequently Mrs. Timmins gave or­ ders that Immediately after the cor­ oner’s inquest her father's body should be removed to her residence In Harlem, but ns the officers of the cremation so­ ciety held the solemnly executed direc­ tion and authorization of their late friend and associate to incinerate his remains, they were advised by the counsel of their corporation that such an Instrument would justify them in , taking possession of the remains at tho very earliest moment possible and re­ moving them to the crematory. Warned By the undertakers of Mrs. Timmins* threatened Interference, they resolved not to risk even the delay strange sight and inatinctively the farmers in their returning vegetable wagons drew aside to let them pass. Once more the hearse disappeared in the dust clouds. This wiu> the last Mrs. Timmins saw of it until she drew up In front of the crematorium. There It with its black doors thrown wide She had come too late! Her father's Ixxly had already been thrust into the fiery furnace. The antagonism of Winkletip’s family to his views concerning the cremation of the dead was an open secret with every attacjie of the society, and the men in charge were determined that tho society should come out tho winner. They ware on the lookout for the body. Everything to the minutest detail was 'in readiness. The furnace had been ocean to Mrs. John Winkletip, of Clap­ ham Common, London. She died last year, and with her the wanderings of the Dingee million came to an end.

Hold!.'* she shrieked, and then hot hands flew to her face and, stagger­ ing backward and striking heavily against the wall, she sank limp and lifeless In a heap on the stone floor of the furnace-room. But the two men In charge had neither eyes nor cars for Mrs. Timmins. As the doors closed they sprang to their (Mists of observation in front of the two peepholes, and stood there watching the effect of the flames upon tho huge ice chest. Its wooden covering parted here and there with a loud crack, laying bare the metal case, from the seams of which burst fitful puffs of steam. Then came a sight so strange and curious that the two men held their breath as they gazed upon it! By the vaporizing of the water from tho melted lee the flumes were pushed back from tho chest and it lay there for an Instant as if protected by some miraculous aura. Then happened something which caused the men to reel and stagger ax if their limbs were paralyzed by drink, and which painted their faces with a* deep a pallor as death's own hand could have laid upon them.

Tbe amount of the firm's receipts was somewhat exaggerated by the ilr.-it reports, but Inspector Stuart holds that at leasi $150,000 for which tho stockholders got not a cent wm taken In by tbo company. The greater part of tills amount, over and above the association's expenses, is In tlie-poucsrion of Louis F- Mortimer, the promoter of the project, who Is now being closely chased by detectives In tbe East Ex-Judge S.

N. H. Tollman ;has also been released on the samo bond. In view of tbe fact that both men have told all they know about the management of tho National Capital Savings, Building and Loan Association of North America and are working hand-in-hand with tho authorities for (the capture of Mortimer, It can easily bo surmised that neither of these men will bo prosecuted, but will bo used as witneasee against Mortimer, who, ac­ cording to Mr. Downing, Is “one man in a thousand." and us smooth as tho best. Attorney Lyden Evans bos been drawn Into this case by circuri)stances. He waa at first called upon by Mortimer to de­ fend certain little suits and know noth­ ing of tbe association's standing. He ‘did more and more of the firm's legal business until one day bo conceived th© idea thatia’J was not straight Mr. Mor­ timer was In New York at the time and Evans demanded at tho association's of-' flee’ In tho liookery Building -to have access to tho company’s books if ho wa-» to be its legal adviser.

In 1809 Mr. Lowell published “Under tho Willows and Qthcr Foems," and near the dos© of th© same year “‘1 he Cathedral," an epic poem; in 1870 a col­ lected volume of essays entitled “Among My Books," and In 1871 “My Study "Wlndowa” "Three Memorial Pocjes" appeared In 1876.. In 1855 h© succeeded .Longfellow as professor of modern lan­ guages and belles-lettres In Harvard Col.lege. The degree of D. C.

ID. by Cambridge In 1874- Tho latter deEjb he received also from SL Andrew’s, Inburgh, Harvard and Bologna From ,1857 to 18G2 ho was editor of th© Atlantic Monthly, and ho bad previously been connected with The Pioneer, a magazine of high character, tbe --Inft* Slavery Standard, Putnam's Monthly, and from 1864 to 1866 was editor of tho North American Review. He had also been a lecturer before tho Lowoll Insti­ tute, In Boston, on the British poets. । Toward tho close of 1874 Mr. Lowoll was offered tho post of Minister to Rus­ sia, which ho declined, but in 1877 ac- . cepted that of Minister to Spain, from which he was transferred in I860 to that of Minister to Great Britain. On tho change of administration in 1885 ho re­ signed this position and returned to tho 'United States. Tho speeches which ho delivered In England were republished in J867 under the title of “Democracy and Other Addresses." Though a life­ long Republican, Mr. Lowell supported tho candidacy of Mr. Cleveland for re­ election to tbe presidency In 1888. Dur­ ing tho slavery agitation prior to tho civil war ho was a prominent advocate for Its abolition, and had been equally outspoken In more reoent years In urging the reform of tho civil service. "Harvardlane," which -Mr. Lowell edited in 1837-8, was a notable poem, composed under peculiar circumstances. At Lho time of writing it tho collegiate senior was undergoing a brief period of rustication at Concord In consequence of Inattention to hh text booka His forced sojourn in this Arcadia of scholar­ ship and reform brought him into re­ lationship with the transcendontaUsta,who at that lime were in tho habit of gathering at tho homo of Emerson, with Ihorn then begab that friendship which, ispttetbo playful sallies of tbo younger poet in his earlier writings, only termi­ nated with tho death of the elder. The young satirist saw tho humorous side of tho social movements of the day, and tho class poem, scintillating with wit, at­ tacked tho abolitionists, Carlyle, Emer­ son and tho transcendentalists. In tho winter or 1887 Mr. Lowell read a paper before the Union League Club, of Chicago, on tho authorship of "Richard IIL" Since his return to pri­ vate life Mr. Lowell's homo bad been with his only child, tho wife of Edward Burnett, at Southboro, Mass. BOMBARDED THE SKIES. The rainfall expedition sent out by the United Slates Department of Agri­ culture under the charge of IL G.

Jacow Isaac*. an Indian carpenter of M*alsti>,ur« died the other day, full of yean—just how many ynan nobody One of the.best wavs to keep in good health is not to think or worry too much about it. If you feel strong a-<d well, don’t imagine that some insidious disease may be MJcretly attacking your constitution. Many people are like the inexperienced traveler who anx­ iously inquired about tha svmptoms of seasickneMS, and how be shouid know when he had it. One generally know# when ho is aiok, and frequently many BUpposably alarming symptoms prove, upon investigation, to' be either per­ fectly natural occurrences ar of very slight importance. - Eat knd. drink what yon desire, as long as it agrees with you. Your stomach know^pretty well what it can digest. Plata, timple food is desirable, as a general thing, but the luxuries of the table, in moderation, will do no harm. Alcoholic beverages are not fit for habitual use. They are true medi­ cines, and shonld only be used like any other medicines—under advice of a physician. As a regular beverage they can do do good, but will almost cer­ tainly do harm. • Take all the sleep you can get. but remember that the necessary amount varies greatly for different persons. Some must bleep at least nine hours, while others thrive under six. Only don’t rob yourself of what you really need. The “midnight oil" is a terribly expensive illuminant to buru either for purpose? of labor or study. Always treat a common cold with great respect. Ninety-nine times out of a hundred it will get well anyway, but the hundredth cold, if neglected, may lead to bronchitis, pneumonia or consumption. It is bast to take no such chances. If you are sick enough to need any medicine at all, beyond the simple rem­ edies familiar to" all, you arc sick enough to need the attendance of a phfsician. By all means take as much exercise as yon can, and be in the open air ns much as possible. Outdoor life is the natural condition of mankind, and the more one can have it tho better. • Fresh air, sunlight, good and suffi­ cient food, pure water, outdoor exer­ cise, temperance in all things, and a cheerful disposition, are the chief icmedio, in nature’s dispensatory and are worth more than all the drugs kand medicines of tho shops. Dr. Holmes has truly said that if nine-tenths of all medicines, patent, proprietary and otherwise, in tho world were poured into the ocean, it would be all the bet­ ter for mankind and all tho worse for the fishes; and the bast physician can do little without good nursing, and thus aid nature in throwing off dis­ ease.—Monthly Bulletin.

We are to push onward and upward in the pathway of prosperity, instead of lingering lazily in the slough of despond. Hurrah for the people! ' • Last Monday was the day set for the election which was to decide whether or not Nashville’should bond herself to the extent of 820,000 for a system of water works. The question had been largely discussed by the peo­ ple in general, and was pretty thor­ oughly understood by all. The oppo­ nents of the appropriation talked so much that they seemed to be numer­ ous, and the opinion was generally expressed that if the proposition car­ ried at all it would be by a tight squeeze. The public meeting held at the opera house Friday evening was well attended and, while it did not bring out any bombastic enthusiasm, dl(Ta world of good. Mr. Messenger, engineer of the water works at Howard City, was present and in a very clear manner answered the numerous ques­ tions Bred at him from all parts of the house. SHbrt talks were given by Dr. W. H. Young, who was chosen chairman of the meeting, C. A. Hough, C. W. Smith, P. C. Yates and others, and it is conceded that the meeting made many votes. Flection day was vary moist, a light rain falling almost incessantly during the day, but in spite of this fact a large vote was polled, the total being 270, out of a registration of 319. It was evident during the day that the proposition had more friends than had ’been supposed, and as the friends of the water works became more jubilant, those opposing waxed more and more vvrathy, and for a time bedlam reigned supreme, but in the afternoon the “Ntw” became more resigned and everything was quiet. When the polls closed and the count was made, it was found that the vote stood “yes,” 195: “no,” 75, a majority for the works of 120. Everybody was surprised at the result, and that the friends of the project were pleased at their decisive victory goes without saying. It shows plainly that the great majority of the citizens and tax-payers of the village are in favor of doing all that lies within their power toward the up-building and improvement of the village. It shows that our people have faith in the future of the town and are willing to supplement their faith with work. The common council held a special meeting, Tuesday evening, and elected a citizens’ committee consisting of C. L. Glasgow, II. R. Dickinson, Dr. W. II. Young. G. A’. Truman, W. R. Barker and C. B. Lusk, to act with the council, as a water works com­ mittee, with President L. E. Lentz as chairman. Tills committee will apDolnt a sub-committee, to visit several other places in the state and carefully inspect the workings and expenses of various systems, and the merits of these systems will tie carefully con­ sidered before the final contract is made. It is honed that the plant may Ife completed this fall, and all possible haste consistent frith due caution will be made with this end in view. THEY CELEBRATE. Tuesday evening nearly every boy in the village was out to help celebrate the water works victory and they did it, with the assistance of the band, to the queen’s taste. A huge l»on-tlre was built on the flats in the rear of Glasgow's hardware, the tire alarm sounded, anti with a grand hurrah out came the hose cart and the old hand engine, down through Cherry alley to the river, and when the Are had got nicely started the water was turned on. A valiant but unsuccessful at­ tempt was made to quell the flames, and the pyre was finally given oyer to the merciless flames and the cortege wended Its way back to the engine house via the back streets, to the music of a gruesome dirge by the band.

The crowd was up with the soldiers, for with the first break of dawn tho streets began to assume a lively appearance and tho roads leading into town commenced to empty their stream of wagon# and car­ riages into tho camp grounds.

Tho final test of strength Is now be­ ing made at N in a del Mar Beach, directly across Valparaiso Bay and css than five miles away. When tho news reached here that an army of f.OflO rebels had been landed at Qi;intra Bay. Balmaceda a id his gen­ erals ware taken by surprise, but tho utmost activity was used in getting troops to the front, so as. If possible, to prevent the Invading army from erod­ ing the Aconcagua River Immediately south of the bay. Tho arrangement - were madit hurried­ ly and only a Htt'o o.er half of tbo troops were available for this purpose. Six of the In urgent war ships were an­ chored In Cosnon Bay, at the mouth of the river, and nndcr tho coyer of. their guns the army ot the Junta undertook tho task of forcing a passage of tho river. A most de pcrato and blco-Jy battle re­ sulted. la. tlng nearly all dayA galling Are,from the insurgent artill< ry. which was-formed o:i the northern bank of tbc river, aided by the heavy batteries and machine guns from tho ships, was too much for the government troops and the/ were forced to retire, which they did In good order. Both sides fovght with tho utmost valor and the de perato character of tho battle may bo Judged from tho fact that, while les* than 30.000 troop* weic en­ gaged, the list of casualties will fool up nearly 3.000 mon kilted and wounded. Ihtlmaceda found out that the Insur­ gent* are something moro than “nltrato stealer* " Tho general In command of the government forces selected a strong pos t on on the beach of Vina det Mar, the eastern shore of Valparaiso Kay, as his second Hue of defense, and lea. Ing force enough In front of tho enemy to check hl* progress somewhat, took his place there and went to work to strengthen it a* much as possible. All day long the Insurgent forces pushed their way steadily forward, driving tbo comparatively small govern­ ment force before them. It was a con­ stant sklpmish for fifteen miles over broken country. At every point of vantage tho Balmaccdans made a stand, and while they were constantly force! to give- way be­ fore superior numbers they retarded the advance, and gave the main army at Vina del Mar a eLan e to better prepare itself for the decisive light It was not until late In the evening that the attacking army arrived in front of Balmaceda’s line of defense. It was theft too late to give battle. In the meantime President Balmaceda, with every available man In thl* depart­ ment, himself in command, went to tho front He had over 13,00ft available fighting men. while tho fn»urgent forces had been reduced to loss than 7,000. At the back of the govcr.imeut Hue is Fort Callao, the heavy gnus of which have dune good work, bi.th In rakhig the enemy by land at d preventing the In-' sutgent l e**t which bad entered the bay from doing anything more effective than .long rance firing. Tho Congressionalists attacked In force and the battle has raged with tbc utmost ficiceness. Tho w.;r ships did all they could to aid tticlr Ian l forces, but they had a Ivalthy regard for tho heavy guns In the lorts, aid were compe-lcd :u do their fighting at long range. They sent as many men a.* they could spare, with all their available machine aud rapid fire guns, to aid as a naval , auxiliary brigade the attack on Italmaceda’s position.

Tho first organized effort was m»do In 185L Tlib Vermont Legislature In that year appropriated 83.000, with tho condition that tho cornor-stono of tho proposed memorial bo laid on the 16th of August following, and that the sum of 87,000 bo raked by private sub­ scription. While these conditions wore not fulfilled arid the appropriation lapsed, the agitation continued. In 18757<> the Bennington Historical Society, and subsequently the Bennir.gton Battie Mon* ument Association, were organized, tho latter chartered by tho Sta e of Vermont, with an appropriation of 815,000, condi­ tioned on the raising of 85.000 more Tho celebration of 1877 followed. These events, and tho subsequent action of the States of New Hampshire and Massa­ chusetts and the national government, b&ve conspired to cause tho erection ot th? noble shaft on tho site of iho conti­ nental storehouse, the object point bf Vol-, onel Baum's expedition In 1777.

Tho balance has been raised by private subscriptions. Tho monument stands on a command­ ing site 283 feet above tho Walloom*ac River. Tula river flows through the vil­ lage of Bennington. The foundation of tbo monument I* tho solid rock of the mountain, on top of which was tho Ben­ nington of the revolution.

Tho walls are thick at the base, but de­ crease gradually to a thickness ot two feet at the apex. Tho outaldo .-tone Is Inlaid with “stretchers and headers." The Inside walls rise to a height of 2G0 feet, after which tho (tones extend through tbo wall.

John Christopher Chrifcteuaen. a Danish Moravian, built the fl rat water worka in the United States in 1.06 at Bethlehem. Va. The machinery Is thus dc*crilM*d in an early print. It consisted of three single-acting forcepumpa, haring a calibre of four Inches and an elghteen-inch atrukc, which were worked by a triple crank and geared to an undershot water wheel having a diameter of eighteen feet, and two feet clear in the buckets. The total head of water was two feet. On the shaft of the wheel wv a wallower of thirty three rounds and -gear­ ing into a spur-wheel <>f flfty-twoa»us, attached to the crank. The three pis­ ton rods were attached each to a frame or‘cross-bead working in grooves to give them a parallel motion with the pump. This cross-head was of wood, as were also all the parts containing the grooves as guides. At first these works were capable of raising the water to a perpendicular height of seventy feet, but afterward were so arranged that the power was increased to 114 feet. As late as 1832 this primitive affair continued in full operation. Gum wood was used in the construction of the first rising main, liecause it was strong enough to resist thegreat pres­ sure at that point, but the remainder was composed of pitch pine. Thirtysix years after this main was laid, lead pipes were substituted, and in 1813 iron om* were introduced aud served the purpose .until the works were replace<l by t hose of more modern pat­ tern. _ .______ POSTAGE STAMP MUSEUM. At Vienna a postage stamp museum has been opened to the public. The museum will be open to visitors dally and gratuitously. In one room are shown chronologically all stamps of which specimens exist from 1840to 1891. Among the iiostal curiosities shown are balloon letters, pigeon post and submarine post letters as they were sent during the siege of Paris In 1870. A collection of forged stamps is also very interesting to the collector. Among tho curious things shown are letters of the Anthropophagi in. the Dutch indies, pieces of wood covered with hieroglyphics, and postcards which have wade the tour of the world. Fur one of these with a penny stamp.which took 119 days to return to Its starting point, an offer of 1,600 'florins has Iteen made. There Is also a case with a collect­ ion of all the coins struck during the emperor Francis Joseph’s reign. The finest object in the collection is be­ lieved to Im* a Dundee stamp, worth £500, and a Cape of Good Hope stamp valued at £100. The exhibition com­ prises 3.000.000 stamps and other ob­ jects connected with the post. GOLD THAT GOES INTO MOLARS.

When in Switzerland, two years ago, writes a correspondent, I made the ac­ quaintance of some lizards living in the crevices of one of the sunny walls of our garden. As I had somewhere heard that lizards have a good ear for music, I resolved to prove the fact; so one afternoon, armed with a small musical box, I wended my steps to their tomato-covered home. Before 1 had finished the first tune a consid­ erable audience had collected, an au­ dience it was a pleasure to play.to, fur the lizards were far more attentive than most human beings. Out peered head after head, a little on one side, in a listening attitude. I gave my little friends a iffhslcal entertainment (varied by whistling) nearly every day, and before long they got much bolder, ami would venture right out of their holes and lie motionless on t he broad edge of the wall, their bright black eyes half closed as a rule, buropening now and then to give me a lazy wink of enjoyment.

Powles On my first visit in London, I fled iu horror from an English Sunday to some suburb in the west. On return­ ing 1 saw In the tipsiest part of the Strand a “clerk" from Cheapsidc and his sweetheart, rolling along the side­ walk beastly drunk. Both were well dressed, the lad looked resfiectableand the lass was pretty. His arm was alwnit her waist, but no one paid the slightest attention to them as they reeled tiack and fourth across the side­ walk. I said to my English companion: “You'd never see a sight like that in New York.” My sin of unrighteous national pride has found me out. To­ day I saw In New York a worse sight by far. It was a father and daughter—tt elr relationship apparent—drunk together in the street. The girl was as pretty as the one I had seen In London, the father a kindly lookin chap and well dressed. He was wholly drunk, she had still a se nee of her situation and was tiring to take him home. Her hat fell <»IT in the street while she was holding him by the artus. She hesi­ tated a moment and then made a gid­ dy lunge fur the hat, while the man escaped. She reeled after him, caught him again and by sheer ner­ vous force began propelling him to­ ward home again, though he was twice us heavy and blessed with all a drunkard's obstinacy.—Telegram Her­ ald. The bonded debt of the United States has now got down to 6)0,000000.. This can be counted ns the sum total of the nation's indebtedness, the legal tender treasury notes will always be needed fur.a circulating medium and will never be redeemed and retired. They are more likely to be added to than diminished. It will be but a few years until the great war debt will be paid, excepting pensions. We will i»e the onlygreat nation on earth out of debt. This will tie a proud dis­ tinction, and If maintained will be an assurance of the solidity of our free institutions.

About 4.500 years age, tho Empress Hl-Llng-Chl was passing am, artificial pond In the palace grounds, when she perceived, lying In the water, certain cocoons of a bright yellow color, from which pretty threads floated away on the surface of the water. She hade one of her maids stoop aud gather up the threads, when, to her astonishment, they unwound from the co-xxmis. The process continued, the bright yellow strands were wound round a stick until the cocoon* were exhausted, and thus was begun what, next lo'tckgrowlng. proved to be tho most import­ ant industry of the (h:nese Empire. and for spinning the thread baa practi­ cally placed the business under new conditions Meantime. however, the Chinese have kept on In the same way without the slightest improvement on the methods of 4.000 years ago? and in a Chinese village of the present day .men and women may be seen reeling off threads from the cocoons Juh as their ancestors did In the time of Christ. It is an industry which can be followed anywhere, and in the humblest Chinese dwellings. In the boat houses along the rivers, In the al'eys which In every di­ rection branch out from the main streets of any Ornes j city, the silk reelor and hi* primitive apparatus may be seen. Any one. however, who, from ttie fact that the work is done by ignorant Peo­ ple, comes to the conclusion that a for­ tune Is easily made by raising silk­ worms, labors under a serious mistake.

Innumerable parasites feed upon them and Impair their health, and even after the cocoons are prepared for the winter improper treatment may subject the grower to a heavy loss. Th«- silkworm is commonly spoken cf as though there were but one kind. As a fact, every caterpillar produces silk when spinning its cocoon. There are twenty-nine varieties of worm which produce an excellent article of silk, but only three or four arc raised exclusively for this preduct, and of these one Is best In China, whllf another Is better adapted to the c Imate of India, still anc hor fares best In Asia Minor, and another in Europe The eggs of the best kind, the Chinese worm, are exceedingly minute, about 100,000 to the ounce, And th ■ cat­ erpillar when first hatebed Is less than a quarter of an Inch tn length The in­ sect Ilves from forty-five to fifty-three days, and Increases Iji a month to a length sometimes exceeding three Inches and a weight 9.500 time* that at hatching.

It is not generally known, however, that the white* found the Indians cultivating corn carefully, aikd storing it up in bags and granaries; nor that the whites learned tho art of making maple'sugar from the Indiansbefore they knew much about any other kind of sugar. Gov. Bradford's account of tbesettle* inent of the Plymouth Colonyi* cos* elusive as to the use the Indians made of their oirn. On the occasion of the Pilgrims* very first landing on Cape Cod, on the l&th of November, 1020, they found mine deserted huts, aud in them “faire Indesn baskets filled with come, and some in earen, faire aud good, of divorce colours, which seemed to them a very goodly Fight (haveing never seen any schuch before)." The beauty of Indian oorn,-either when growing dr harvested, ia certainly a pleasant revelation to those who have .never seen it before. Returning to their ship, the Pilgrims "tooke with them parte of ya corne. and buried up ye rest, and so, like ye men from Escholl, carried with them of'ye fruits of ye land and showed tbeir breethren; of which, & their returno, they were marvelusly glad, and their ceding year $34,519,723 worth of goods.

He had absolute control of tho railroad at Santiago and commanded the ordinary roads Hence Santiago was pra t cally in a state of siege. Affairs had come to such a pass that it was necessary for President Balmaceda to make some move, and a little after daylight tbe word was given to at­ tack the position held by the revolution­ ists. and. led by General Barbosa and Alcerreca, tho Government troops left their breastworks and advanced on the enemy under cover of a heavy tire from their batteries. The insurgents wore generally armed with Mannlicher rifles and used smokeless powder. The Government troops were also well armed. As soon as the approach­ ing column got within range of tbe Mannlichen', a destructive tire from tbe intrenched revolutionists, shot and shell, grape and canister and rifle bullets, tore through the ranks of tho advanc­ ing troops until It became too hot, aud despite the efforts of the officers they broke and retired almost- in a panic. Officers worked like beavers to re-form tbeir columns as soon as they got within range of the deadly Mannlichers aud at last succeeded. Thon camo another at­ tack.

The reports which come from lhe North Dakota wheat fields are of a dis­ couraging charade-. At looperstewn, Griggs County, there was a heavy freeze, ice forming a quar­ ter of an Inch thick- Late grain It cooked, and wheat iu shock aud In process of cutting is damaged. The ther mem ctor, reached She freezing point at midnight, and at 10 In tho morning stood at -5 degree* Farmers generally had placed rt aw on the north* side of tho fields, and most everybody sat up all night end tended their smudges, but It was of no u»c, for what It tie breeze there was came from the south and car­ ried the t-mol e In the wrong direction. About 25 per cent, of the grain Is in shock. The thermometers ran dowA to at several points in Ramsey County, and Ito was found on iho beads of wheat In many fields Smudge fir- s were nq| started until late in tho ti ght, and It 1.1 feared they did little good. About 5u percent. of tbo grain Is cut In that region. Villages along the northern border re­ port that tho temperature wm In places not much above ■-*<*. It was 23 at Pem­ bina. 24 at Ro! o, 36 at Cando, aud 30 at St John. It was cloudy, however, at tho last two points name-J. Manitoba reports are black. Every point In tho province shows that the tem­ perature was from 23 to 27. The wheat there Is still in tbe milk, and- a largo percentage of it will be a total loss. Oliver Da.'ivmple, North Da­ kota’s great wheat-grower, said, on tho condition of tho crops, that he estimated the frost, had destroyed About one-seventh of tho entire wheat and cats crop In tho Rod River Valley from Fargo to the British possessions. The last freeze would, of course, re­ duce the figures, 2nd he feared onesixth of the crop would bo de­ stroyed. On tho n ght of -the first frost one-half of the wheat acreage had been untouched by tho harvester. He says that all the wheat u'.cut at that time has had what Is called a “brar.d" frost This wheat will to equally as good for mlling purposes as No 1 bard, but tbe farmers will receive a grade lower. In explaining the action of the frost ou the uncut wheat be said tto amont of dam­ age would altogether depend on tho con­ dition of tho wheat berry at the time of tho frost The wheat standing which had turned to dough but had not ripened would not be materially Injured by this severe frost It would only result In corrugating tho surface of the grain, which would destroy its brightness and cause it to bee a grade. The wheat in tho milk would be an entire loss when­ ever there was a frost below 32 degree* The straw wou'd turn to yellow and might deceive even the most experienced farmer, but tbe grain would never pass out of IU milk state A Duluth dispatch says: Board of Trade men received reports from North Dakota that frost seriously Injured late sown wheat throughout tho State, while letters a tout tho prior frost Indicate that more damage was done than had previously been estimated. A Church's Ferry, N. D., report says: The thermometer registered 29. Ice was found on tbe .heads of wheat In many fields. Farmers tried smudge fires to a large extent, but some think they did not commence soon enough, some of them waiting t il almost freezing point to fore starting tho tire* About 50 per cent, of tho grain Is cut, and half of the balance is ripe. There Is no frost at Cando or St. John, but it was heavy at Rolla. At SL Vincent, N. D., It waa 32 de­ grees, the same a# tho former cold snap, but there was apparently a much heavier frost. About 70 per cent of the crop is harvested. grecs below freezing. All over Manitoba the damage Is form­ idable. Tbo thermometer was from two to five degrees below freezing all o.er tho province. A great quantity of tho wheat is still green. STORIES TOLD BY FUNNY MEN OF THE PRESS.

The most revolting thing which U has ever Iw-en our misfortune to be called uimj* to chronicle cpuiee comes to us this week from Assyria. Ru­ mors and bits of news have t>een com­ ing to our ears about it during the - week, but nd reliable account of the affair being obtainable, a News re­ porter made a trip to Assyria yester­ day afternoon aud got as near to tbe bottom facta in the case as are obtalnable. In the first place it will be necessary to explain a little detail of relation­ ship. Some five years ago, Will Cor­ win, of Battle Creek, married the di­ vorced wife of James Driscoll, of As­ syria. Mrs. Driscoll hail two children, Elsie, now eleven years of age, and Allie, who is now eight years old, and these children have lived with Mr. and Mra. Corwin ever since their mar­ riage. Mrs. Driscoll is the daughter of Mrs. G. W. Abbey, of Assyria, by a former busband, so that G. W- Abbey, commonly known as Wash. Abbey, the proprietor of the hotel and a little store al Assyria, is step-grandfather to tbe two little Driscoll girls. An interview with Mr. Corwin was bad by our reporter late yesterday afternoon, and nis story, told in a straight-forward, honest way, Is; prac­ tically as follows: On Friday, Aug­ ust 21st, two weeks ago today, Elsie, Mr. Corwin’s elder step-daughter, came to him in the field and told him that there was blood upon Allie’s under­ clothing. Mrs. Corwin was absent, being at Battle Creek at the time, and Mr. Corwin had Mrs. Abbey, the little one’s grandmother, came- over to the bouse and change the little one’s clothing, but as Allie made no com­ plaint of lieing iq pain, and when questioned said there was nothing the matter, nothing further was done until Mrs. Corwin returned from,Bat­ tle Creek, the following Sunday. She became satisfied that there was some­ thing tbe matter with tbe child and they took her to Bellevue to have an examination made by physicians. On the way over to Bellevue she finally admitted that while up in A. W. Wilcox's barn, some days previous, with some other little girls, a man by the name of Peck had put his hand* under her clothes, but would not admit that he had hurt her. She was taken before Drs. Berry and Hull,'at Bellevue, and subjected to an exam­ ination which show. <1 that the little one Bad been most shamefully abused* but they thought that the injuries must have occurred al a later date than when the little one said the epi­ sode in Lhe barn transpired. Mr. Cor­ win went to Hastings and laid the master before Prosecuting- Attorney Lowden and Sheriff Benham, who pro­ ceeded to Investigate the matter. In the mean time, while Mr>Corwin was at Hastings. Elsie, the elder daughter, told her mother that for several months back Ker grandfather, Abtey, had at numerous times subjected her to even worse indignities than those to which Peck had subjected her little sister, and had Improved every pos­ sible opportunity to force her to hold intercourse with him. The first time he attempted It was nearly a year ago, while tbe two little girls had been left at his house during a visit of the par­ ents to Nashville, out since the Cor­ win’s moved to Assyria, in April last, that he has upon frequent occasions been guilty of Incest with her. When Mr. Corwin got home and learned the story his anger knew no bounds and the following morning he went to Hastings and swore out a warrant against Apbey before Justice Riker. This is practically all or Mr. Cor­ win’s story, and it is corroborated in part by the other citizens with whom interviews were held. Mr. Meach­ am’s little girl, about the same age a* Allie Driscoll, says that she was up in Wilcox’s barn at the same time, and that Feck put his hand-, under her clothes.also, but did not hurt her. Last Friday Abbey went to Battle Creek after a.lojul of gotxls, and re­ turned as far as blsaon Charles,’ about a mile south of Assyria. Here he evi­ dently heard that trouble was brewing for him, for he left his load ot goods, gave his son a bill of sale of all his personal property, and disappeared, and the officers have been as yet un­ able to locate him. The man Peck, who is accused of having a hand in this dirty business, is Lewis H. Peck, who was formerly in tbe bakery business here, and has always been considered, as far as The News has any knowledge, a harmless, inoffensive old man. He is a brother ot Mrs. A. W. Wilcox and makes his home with them. If he is guilty of this ‘horrible crime, no punishment could be too severe for him. And if anything, Abbey’s crime Is still worse, is still worse, as he is a relative of the girls and should have been the one to protect rather than to lead them astray. The people of Assyria are greaty excited over the terrible crime, but do not seem qui|e ready, all of them at least, to believe in the guilt of the parties accused. The officers of tbe county are at work on the case, but It is bard at this time to predict what the outcome will be. It is certain, however, that some one has been guilty of this awfffl outrage, and it is the duty of the officers and of the citizens of Assyria as well, to leave no stone unturned until the guilty ones, who­ ever they may be, are punished. Dr. R. P. Comfort, wife and little daughter, Leona, expect to be aternl a large share of next week, on a businees aud visiting trip to McBrides, their old home. * We have received a few chests of the new crop Tycoon lea.

There is no city in the world better protected thav Washing­ ton. The plan by which the street* converge into a circle at intervals enable* the authorities to plant bat­ teries in the circles and sweep the thoroughfares of liotera. This plan, credited to tho combined thought of Washington and Lafayette, was adopt­ ed in the reconstruction of Paris by Napoleon IIL Then the fire department of the city is of a first-class order, and as for troops, they abound. Borides the largo gca d 6f men armed with Win­ chesters and revolvers uithin the Cap­ itol and the fact that many of tho Treasury male employes have organ­ ized a militia company to repel raiders, several thousand troops can be brought into service in-less than an hour. The Washington militia numbers 2,000 men, and within half an hour’s march । is the arsenal whence 500 ve'eran ar­ tillerymen can be summoned by tele­ phone. Two experienced troo| * of cavalrymen stationed at Arlington are available for immediate terrie*, while from the marine barracks 300 of the best drilled men living conhl be ob­ tained. Gatling and Hotchkiss, to sav nothing of heavier guns, are plentiful. Moreover, the mounted police are ex­ cavalrymen, and all the patrolmen have served in the United States army. If this force isn't enough to put a damper on the spirit of the lioters a couple of bacterio* ot the regular army can be obtained from Baltimore forty minuto*, and a !*’ge force of marine* and sailors from Annapoli* in lets than one hour. So that, take it ail into consideration, the probabilities of a raid on the United States Treas­ ury succeeding are very small. 3kwu> Brux- and hl* daughter Alice were found uead In thrir house about nine mile* from Rod Oak.

Stewart.- Pastor. WE'VE HEARD IT WHISPERED That peaches are very scarce In Nashville. That vacant- houses in Nashvjlle are a scarce article. That- there will be another marriage in Nashville soon. That the man who minds his own business does not live in this country. That Indiscreet conduct on the part of even a “society woman’’ is never forgotten. That no sympathy goes out to the man too proud to beg, but humble enough to steal. That a certain Nashville woman had a hard lime finding her husband the other night. That M. B. Brooks has the largest and most complete evaporating works In the United States. That John Messimer got up at three o’clock Thursday morning and done a large washing before seven o’clock. That the people who are always complaining of somebody else, are the ones that ought to be complained of. That the woods around Nashville are full of hunters, but very’ seldom their wives have to cook any game they get. That a certain young fellow of this place, let another fellow pay his girl’s way into the show and then he'went and sat down by her: and thesother fellow wasn’t “in it.” * That tbe people living near Emery’s corners, about two miles south of town, are greatly excited over a lynx, which has ouite frequently made its appearance in the large swamps west of the corners, of late.

As a remedy for this disease, It stands pre­ eminent and incomparable. Where the ordinary treatment fails—and It does fall in nine cases out of ten—S. S. S. will affect a cure. Some of the test­ imonials that the proprietors have on Ole. and others which they include in their pamphlets, describe cures that are almost miraculous. No higher tributes could be paid to the singular efficacy of this medicine than those which has eailxxiied in these unsolic­ ited letters. Tbe suffering that has been saved by S. 8.

E'er long Mr. Smith and the Misses Jones were tbe best of friends and Smith was congratulating himself upon his conquest, with a smile of admiration that would have made a square meal for a street car horse. The young ladles had come over in a carriage, and “wouldn’t Mr. Jones like to go for a drive?” With that Ann Arbor smile spreading until both ears began to fear total annihi­ lation, Mr. Smith assented. That was a fatal drips, as when they got several miles in the country-theyoung ladies informed him that they were going home and if he got out there it would not be so far to walk.

One woman of this number soon after succumbed to star­ vation. This village numbered 145 houses, and in only twenty were the peasants eating their usual food.

WILLIAM EXPECTS WAR. Germany Simply Walting for tho Word— Sweden and the Drelbund. A Munich dispatch aay.s that tho Kaiser has conveyed very clearly In high Bavarian quarters his impression that war Is to tie expected and that all Germany should be prepared. At the »amo time tho Kaiser ap­ peared to have no apprehension as to the result. In addition to notifying tho re­ serves the German Government has ortfrred a careful Inspection of horses subje-t to call for use In the army, and this order hM teen carried out everywhere. In facL says n Berlin correspondent, the whole empire seems on tho watch waiting fur the word to be given. Advices from Berlin say that communication have passed between the German and Swedish Cabinets relative to the attitude of Sweden in tho event of a European war. Tho bait held out to attract tbe Swedes to the triple alliance is the pros­ pect of recovering Finland. King Oscur Is said to have declared that be would not enter into any formal agreement, but that ns between Russia and Germany bls sym­ pathies would bo with the latter power. IS A PAYING INVESTMENT.

Upon tbe first subject the Postmaster Gen­ eral will refer to tbe largo number of peti­ tion* that be has received during the (>Mt year asking for the establishment of the 1-cent rate. Mr. Wanatnaker will not rec­ ommend such a change In the postal laws, but-will lay all tbo facta In his possession before Congress for that body to act upon.

Whether the disadvantage growing out of a decreased postage rate would not more than offset the conveniences which that rate would induce is a matter which will bo left to Congress to determine.

Fan Salvador, tho smallest but most populous aud one of the, most prosper­ ous of the five Central American re;.ablies, is again in rains, and for. the n’nth time since it* founding in 152S by Benor Jorge de Alvarado, the city of San Sal­ vador is leveled by an earthquake. Millions of collars* wor.h <»f property and many Ilves were destroyed In the republic by this viritntiou Whole towns wore wiped oiit, and- 80 far as ad­ vices received from tho capital Indi, ate, hard y a city in tho country, except tho.*c along tho const, ezcaped the awful effects of the convu-slon. There had been l:td cations for sere: al days | art that a seismic disturbance of more than u uil power might bo ex­ pected. The volcanoes of San Salvador, San Miguel aud Laleohnvo been un­ usually active, and deon subterranean rumblings and slight ear. h tremors have been felt Such tilings aro net uncommon there, however, and while there .was a fea fng of uneasiness there was no gregt alarm fef At just five minutes before 2 o’clock in the morning the earth be^an to shake The wave- ba 1 a strong vertical and oscil­ latory movement I’eop'e rushed into the streets fto tbe.r night clothing, and while, the aho:k lasted only twenty seconds, be for a It had passed away there was a panlc-strk kt-n mob making its way to the open country outside tho city. The scene was terribly sub line. Men. women, and chi dren were shrieking and praying In tho streets: walls of house*, cracked, tottered, and felt: there was a deep, continuous rumblo as of heavy thunder; tho sky was overcast and . the air was flilod with a fine, ‘penetrating dust While tbo shock last d tho earth rose and fell In long waves, and atrong men were unablo to koep their feet Tho panic-stricken mob flocked to the open ground cutside the city; temporary shelters were thrown up wherever pos­ sible, but nearly ah tho mon and a great many of tho women and children had onlv the sky for a cover. All through tho morning there wore slight shocks, but none approaching in intensity that which had been so de­ structive. . The Inhabitants were afraid to return to their houses, and aro making them­ selves as comfortable as possible In the temporary camps until tho commotion subside* President Exota Is doir g Ms best to •top tho panic aud care fur the homoloss people until It is considered safe for them to go back to Ihoir homos. Tho towns th'.oughout tho country have suffered more severely than the capital even. Anala .uito and Confasagua were destroyed. ( ojutepeque, Santa Treia, San Pedro, and Masahuet were so badly shaken that they aro practically ruinod, while tbo shock was plainly felt and damage was done by It at Santo Anna and Suslmtepequc, fully sixty miles from San Salvador. It is impossible at this writing to form any Idea aa to the number of lives which were lost Two people were killed at the capital, though there wore many almost miraculous escapes from death. It is fcarod. however, that there have been many people killed In tho smaller towns. Tho loss of - property will run well Into tho million* This is the ninth time since Its found­ ing, and third time within less than forty years, that San Salvador has boon destroyed by earthquake shock* April 0. 18.M, not a single house was left in tho city fit for habitation, and over throe hundred lives were lost The dust and debris from the falling Load­ ings filled up all of the wells and drink­ ing places. Again, March 19, 1872, tho city was shaken to tho ground. Over $5,000,000 worth, of property wax destroyed then and upward of fifty lives were lost, and more than five hundred seriously injured. Tho entire republic comprises only about 7,500 s ;naro mi es, 300 less than Massachusetts, and it Is peop'od by about 11.003 whites, 350,000 Indians, 300,003 mestizoes, end 3.000 negroe* It Is very mountainous aud thickly dotted by volcanoes, ha Ing no less than eleven which have at different times contrib­ uted to tho destruction of her cities.

In pls- es remarkably rich, and the country hai built up a very large trade in mai.e, oranges, lemons, pineapple, toffee, cotton. tobacco, plantains, and surar. But by far the most valuabo product is Indigo, though tbo quantity raised has considerably decreased slncn independ­ ence w.:s atta ned in 1839. Numerous fine cattle are raised, but the minerad wealth of the country ia largely unde­ veloped. Rich silver mines aro alto­ gether neglected, and the iron trade, though large deposits of excellent ore exist, has fallen into decay. Tho manu­ factures consist of coarse cotton goods, cutlery and ironware.

The title of republic has been sustained sln-JO 1856.

The Roman Catholic re igion is recog­ nised by the state, but all denominations are protected.

THE FARMERS Paid ix Capital, Additional Liability, Total Guarantee, $50,000 JM.000 8100,000 (Incorporated under the laws of the state of Mich inn.) more than ordinary interest, there being over a dozen entries for the pre­, mium. Mr. Stauffer has put In an unusually large stock of gotxls this fall und at the present rateof salewill hare to put in another stock before cold weather sets in. His stock of ShawJft is probably the largest and l>est selected in Barry county, and they are, being sold at very low prices. Never before in the history of Nash­ ville has it known such a prosperous fall as this promlees to be. All spring and summer money was very scarce, fanners and business men were pressed to pay bills, trade was dull, and, not only’ Nashville was ho effected, but every city and town. The farmers had but little to sell, and those few that were fortunate enough to have something to sell always had an abundance of places for their money. .But how beautifully business has changed in the last month, in Nashville. To-day our merchants could not ask for a much better business. Late Sat­ urday evening, while waiting at the trarber shop for a shave, we overheard an old clerk from one of our leading stores remark that be would like to know how large a crowd there was in town that day, as he had not had time to look out on the street that afternoon, and the store had never done as large a business in one day before as they had done that day. This is not only true of one establishment but of nearly every one in town. Crops in this vicinity have been excellent, and with the fine weather that we nave had the farmers have all succeeded in harvesting their crops in the best possible condition. Nash­ ville, this fall, has afforded one of the best of markets for everything that a farmer could find to sell. Our eleva­ tors are doing a rushing business, and no grain or other product of tbe farm has left our town to find a better mar­ ket. There Is an abundance of fruit of every description. First came berries, and the crop was.enormous; next are apples, pears, peaches, etc.; nearly every tree being loaded to its utmost. To determine something near what the apple crop will be, and which has but just rightly tiegun, M. B. Brooks and the Williams Fruit Evaporator Co., bust Saturday, purchased nearly 2,000 bushels of apples, not counting what was shipped in from other towns in this vicinity. There is not a man, woman or child in town, to-day, but what can find good suitable employmeot right here at home, and at good wages. There is not a vacant house in town, and every day we are asked, by people look­ ing for houses, if we know of a vacant house. As soon as a house is vacated thm% are people ready to move right In. XTbe fore jart of this week, O. A. Phillips platted and laid out a new ad­ dition of village lots, from his farm on the east side of town; the foundations for three new houses are being laid, and we were informed yesterday by flood authority that no less than ten uts had already been sold, and that houses would Ira built on the most of them Immediately. The buildings for tiie Lentz Table Company will be just south of these lots. The foundations are already completed for these build­ Ings and they cover about one acre of ground. The earth taken from the excavations for tfese foundations has Ixran used in grading a side track from the railroad to the fracking rooms of the factor}-, which will make it rery convenient for shipping. When completed, this will Ira one of the finest of Its kind in the stale, and will fur­ nish employment to nearly 50 hands when running to its fullest capacity, which, under the efficient management of its directors, it will probably do the year round. We dare say that Nashville is now doing more business than ever before in its history, and Is one of the liveliest towns of its size In the state. V NUMBER 3 CAUGHT ON TH® «L,T?

Everything is passing off pleasantly and successfully. The races are good and are being witnessed by delighted thousands. The principal attraction of yesterday was the marriage of Mr. Bert Harding and Miss Maude Lap­ ham, both of Maple Grove, by Rev. W. F. Kring, pastor of the Nashville1 Evangelical church.

In 1746, 600 barrel* of flour were received in New Orleans from the Wa­ bash, and Illinois raised three times the quantity consumed by tho State.

President of the Grand Trunk Railway, with other effiria's and prominent pub- pennies out of a possible twenty-flye thrown in the air. Is without ques­ tion the finest shot in his line in the United States. He is little known, save to a limited circle of marksmen in Illinois, for the reason that he shoots wholly for bls own amuse­ ment and has never taken part in tournaments or matches. He discov­ ered his remarkable talent as a rifle­ man through an accident in killing swallows on the wing, and at once began practicing at snap-shooting. For ^nearly five years his work was done spasmodically, but about four years ago he began regular practice, shooting not less* thaq 500 shells a day. He has no favorite target, but shoots glass balls, pennies, pebbles, white beans and other small objects, according to his fancy. Higden considers the use of shot cartridges demoralizing and will not use them under .any circumstances, preferring the small 22-calilxir ball, as it is the most difficult. He exer­ cises great care in selecting his guns, and has several splendid weapons which he holds priceless. Truly phenomenal was his latest score with glass balls in a'500-l>all shoot at the old Lime Kiln shooting grounds, he breaking 400 bulls with 22 short-ball cartridges out of a possible 500, while over one hundred and fifty balls were broken before he missed. He has frequently broken 480, 48.3 and 485 glass balls out of a possible half thou­ sand. and expects In a short time to be able to break 500 without a miss. One of his favorite shots, and one re­ quiring great skill, is the double. He has hi^thrower select a pebble alout the size of a glass ball and toss it into the air at a regulation height and distance, and will strike the .pebble twice before It touches the ground, breaking the gun before the second shot This is a wonderful feat, but he seldom fails of ]>crfonning it at the first trial. Here is another favorite shot: He faces the thrower, gives the order to throw, turns completely around and breaks a £lass tmll before it has fallen half way to the ground. six feet below the level of tho water, the The shields’ shells wore left In tho tunriver's greatest depth 40.47 feet, and its tunnei and toe tunnel valla laid up In WOMEN AS CONDUCTORS. width nearly half a mile.

The lumber comes from Cadillac, and is exasperatingly slow in coming, but as fast as a car-load arrives it is worked up and the buildings grow ac­ cordingly. The frame is up for the finishing room, 50x90 feet, two stories, and work has been commenced on the factory building, 50x100, two stories. Sixty-five cords of stone were used for the foundations, and 160,000 feet of lumber will be used in the construc­ tion of the building.

The young man who commences the active duties of life by committing little acts of dishonesty, petty lying and neglecting to pay his debts, thus labeling himself a “aead-beat,” Is tak­ ing great chances of spending a por­ tion of his days in state prison, besides securing the disrespect of all with whom he comes in contact. There’s nothing “smart" in such acts, and we’ve never heard of a boy who started life in that way and kept it up becoming a rich man. On the contrary, thousands of such have become paupers and criminals, abhored by all who knew them, and when they died were neither missed nor mourned.

ONIONS FOR DYPHTHBRIA. “Why don’t they use onions! For goodness sake, why don't they use onions! Where do they live? I will go up there today and tel! them to use onions!’’ Such were the exclamations of our mother, says the editor of the Danvers mirror, when we reported one day at the dinner table that a child of Mr. G. W. Dudley was dead and the whole family Including him­ self, alarmingly sick with dyphtherla. Mother was moved to these earnest and interested expressions by a firm belief that she knows several lives saved by the use of unions in dyphtheria, one of them being our sister. In these cases raw. onions were placed in a bandage and beaten Into a pulp, the cloths, containing onions, juice and all, being then bound about the throat and well up over the ears. Re­ newals may be rnsde as often as the mass becomes dry. In the cases no­ ticed the result was almost magical, deadly pain yielding in a short time to sleepy comfort. The editor adds the wish that this remedy might have* a wide enough trial to fully its usefullness. hl* blow weighs 1,400 ton*. Ely’* Cream Balm I* apacally adapted *i * pbalki add.

FiaberiftK ment of this gigantic enterprise has been worked out which far eclipses anything accomplished in the estab­ lishment of the world-renowned Paris exposition in a similar period. The development of the exposition work in Chicago is vastly ahead of what Paris accomplished within the same time, and it Is now apparent that the Chicago enterprise will be one of much greater dimen­ sions, and probably of much greater cost. There were but 238 acres In­ closed within the exposition grounds magnitude. Jackson Park, where the Exposition is to be held, is seven miles south of the business center of Chicago. Of course it is in the city limits. Chi­ cago’s police are patrolling beats and sleeping on doorsteps almost twelve miles south of Jackson Park. The cast front of the park is washed by the waters of Lake Michi­ gan. It is. a heavy washing, too, for the Exposition grounds stretch along the sandy'shore for more than a mile. The northern at Paris, while In 1893 the Chicago exposition will have OSO acres inclos­ ed. In Paris there were seventy-five and one-half acres under roof, includ­ ing those erected by foreign nations, as well as tho exquisite buildings erected out of the exposition funds. In 1893 there will lie over 100 acres of main exposition buildings. paid out of exposition funds, and In addition doubtless thirty acres erected by for­ eign governments, by our own States and Territories. and by the General Government, at their expense, mak­ ing an aggregate of protably 130 acres under roof. It Is estimated that the Chicago exposition will necntsliate the ex- boundary of the park is Fifty-sixth street and the soutlwrn limit is reached at Sixty-seventh streot. Stony Island boulevard marks its western line. Included In the area marked by these four lines are 630 acres, all dedicated, to the purposes of the World's Columbian Exposition? It would be better if this great enter prise had been christened the World’s Fair, for that is what everybody calls It. From Fifty-sixth street south to Fifty-ninth street, Jackson Park is highly improved. All of this area has been reserved for State buildings, and since the park passed under the control of the Wohd’s Fair folk;, no changes have been made in its condi­ tion. Its grassy slopes and mossy banks have not been disturbed. South of Fifty-ninth street, however, great change^ have been wrought. On this area all of tbe big buildings of the exposition are to be reared. Skeletons of huge buildings are raising themselves from the waste pf sand, and acres of lumber await the workmen. Dredges are puffing and snorting on every hand, plowing out wide canals fur pleasure boat*. Such buildings as arc being erected for the World's Fair have never been constructed for previous expositions. They are to cost nearly Bl 2,000,000, with the land­ scape decorations.

These foundations consist of heavy pine timbers laid In the sand nt close Intervals. The Woman’s Building is further advanced than any of them. It Is to be 200 by 400 feet, two stories high. Miss Sophia G. Hayden, a Boston girl.tdrew the plans for this building and worked out all of its details. Iler ambition to complete the first big structure for the World’s Fair will be gratified, for the Woman’s Building will be fin­ ished before the others are begun. All are interested In the Horticul­ tural Building. The location is all that could bo desired, but that is about ail that can be seen at present. The contractors will soon go to work on it, however. The building Is to be 250 by 1,000 feet. Steel and glass are to bi* used extensively in its con­ struction. The building lies between the railroad tracks and a picturesque lagoon, fronting a wooded island that is to be one of the most attractive resorts In the park. Everybody who visits the Fair will pass the Horti­ cultural Building and they cannot get out until after they have been drawn down part the Horticultural Building. When they leave the grounds and turnback for a parting view of the Exposition its glistening dome will tie the last spectacle that greets their eyes. * The Mims ami Mining Building has also been given a commanding position on the grounds. It is just south of the wooded island. When visitors alight from the trains and look down the grand vista that Is formed by the six largest buildings of the fair, the Mines and Mining Build­ ing is the first one they will see. Its walls are now going up just In front of the gateways where all visitors will surge Into the park from the railway station. With the single ex­ ception of the Woman’s Building, tills structure is furthest advanced. Its thc plan, and connected by a great central dome, 120 feet in diameter and 260 feet high.

Many an old comrade of Grant was there; many a one who, though knowing him but slightly, had magnified that trivial acquaintance until it seemed to blossom forth to Intimate relationship and friend­ ship.

It was a bad day for tho naval parade During tho night a heavy sek washed the shores of the lake, and a stiff north­ question of how to keep out of the poor-house engrosses the attention of the other two-thirds. A literal share of both classes are engaged in tho study of how to keep out of jail. These are all important subjects— tbe I&st mentioned perha s the most important, since actual Experience Is esseuMal to exhibit its true colors. Nor Is it always safe to accept the teachings of the men who have “got there"—“there” not being the jail. Some many have attained the pin­ nacle of their hopes by a lucky in­ vestment in stocks; a railroad may have made a S10 lot on the seashore its terminus, and the happy possessors of the riches to which outside forces have contributed have no reason for self-congratulation. Then, too, there arc those careful souls who deposit their funds in the savings banks at 3 per cent, a year, and during a half century of existence undergo a dis­ cipline which brings them all times next door to starvation without en­ tering its jKirtals, and finally they reach the height of their ambition in the possession of a few thousand dollars, and then die. Again, there are men of activity— and in these times one must be counted in this class or be left be­ hind the procession—who are con­ stantly on the move, and the beckon­ ing figure ahead is always the “mighty dollar." Sometimes tho figure vanishes before tho grasp Is made, but it is caught with sufficient frequency to make a cart load when gray hairs admonish the need of rest and retirement. There are no set rules for getting rich. The men who are certain to reach this end are men of conservative habit, of wise comprehension, of active and progressive spirit, whp have the ability to recognize a good thing when they see it and who are content to await the development of Its fruitful qualities. However rapid they may bo in the search for the dollars singly, they arc seldom in a hurry to get rich.

About 10 o’clcck, however, tho wind had cliaagcd. and tho outlook was much more favor­ able. . The Michigan steamed slowly out of tho basin and headed for Lincoln Park. She was followed by the Fessenden and Andy Johnson, with several <-x-ursion steamers and th<* two fireboats < wi ring the rear. On board the cutters wore many invited gm-sts, mainly wives of army oflicers in the parade. When the Michigan came abr.-astof the monument, 1,500 ft ot from the s< a wall, the order to drop anchor was given. The cutters formed the line, with a fireboat to north and south' The steamers fell Into line outside tho warships, and their anchors wore dropped on the sandy bottom. Tho tugs, which had been hurrying to and from tho harbor with tows, found places between the larger boats.

Tbe lake, always Lin­ coln l ark’s greatest beauty, was never half so beautiful befoie. As the veil wa« pulled from the monu­ ment the guns on tbe warships joined with tho battery on shore in the Presi­ dential salute of twenty one guns. For the moment there was silence. Then the flag at the Michigan’s foremast was run down. It was the signal for a hundred whistles. Tho fireboats tent heaven­ ward a score of streams. The flag re­ appeared at the Michigan's foremast 'and the noisy salute ceased. The Michigan then weighed anchor, and boro to the northward. Tbe revenue cutters followed her and the steamers followed In their wake. Off the Marino Hospital the fleet turned backward and formed a procession down the lake shore past the monument The paradise fish, like the German canary, is a product of cultivation, as there is no place known where it is found in a wild state. It is a native of China. nThcre they are cultivated and kept in aquaria as ornamental fish only. The male is the larger of the two sexes, measuring, when full grown, from the mouth to tile end of the caudal fin, three and a half inches. The body is shaped very much like that of the pumpkin seed sunfish. Its colors surpass in brilliancy any fish heretofore cultivated for the aquar­ ium. The head Is ashy gray, mottled with irregular dark spots. The gills arc azurine blue, bordered with brilliant crimson. The eyes aye yellow and and red, with a black pupil. The sides of the body and the crescent shaped caudal tin arc deep crimson, the former having ten or twelve verti­ cal blue stripes, while the latter is bordered with blue. The under surface of the body is continually changing color—some­ times it is white, at others gray or black. The dorsal and anal fins are remarkably large, hence the generic name of the fish—macro, large; pod us, the foot or fin. Both tins are shaped alike. They are striped and dotted with brown and bordered with blue. The dull-colored ventral fins are protected by a brilliant scarlet­ colored spine, cxiendlng thrce-fourths of an inch behind the fins. The pectorals, situated directly above the ventral fins, are well shaped, but, be­ ing transparent, show no color. . All these colors above described are most brilliant when the fish is excitefl. For instance, when engaged in combat for the possession of a fe­ male fish, or when courting, he shows the most brilliant colors, in order to attract the attention of his lady-love, she being especially fond of bright colors.—Nature’s Realm.

Tho county fair, subdivision of the genus fair which has been a feature ol agricullural life since remote ages, has finally been supplanted In the enter­ prising commonwealth of South Dakota, and Its place has becnsuppllud by some­ thing so entirely new and attractive that it Is likely to bo widely, success­ fully and profitably copied. Thia sub­ stitute is nothing more nor less than the erection of a grain palace. Hankinton, 8. D.. Is the energetic place to first at­ tempt the new order of fair, and from all appearances it is evident sho has made a -‘ten strike." 1'ianklnton docs not claim to have originated the Idea of a palace, for ol late years palaces have multiplied, town after town choosing that method of at­ tracting attention to itself and Its enter­ prise; but 1'ianklnton is probably tbe Unit community to experiment upon a distinctly agricultural palace as a sub­ stitute for the annual agricultural fair, and her effort has been a marked sue- The recent opening of the Plankinton grain paldcc was auspicious for mors reasons than one. Plankinton has Dever suffered such crop shortage as to be­ come subject for outsldo aid, but she is located in a region which has for a year or two before this suffered more or less from insufficient rainfall. The splendid crop* of 1891, however, loaded her gra­ naries to overflowing, and from this abundance came the beautifully deco­ rated grain palaeo as a thank-offering lor nature's lavish bounty. Sioux City, the nearest commercial centre, responded to an Invitation to assist in the inaugural ceremonies of tbe palace, and sent a special train load of representative business men to "rejoice with those who did rejoice." A wellarranged program was carried out, which included glowing tributes to the beauties of the palace, the splendid fer­ tility of the soil whose products had been so artistically drawn upon, and to the hopeful promise of future prosper­ ity which the exhibit voiced. A para­ graph from the openingaddress of Pres­ ident Andrews Indicates the confident hopefulness of the new state. Ho said: "From hillside and plain and valley, where tbe silence of ages has lingered, the white incense of steam, the curling smoke of industry's fires, and the mu­ sical hum of a busy, prosperous and%ontentod people ascends like a grand thank-offering to heaven for the good time coming, come at* last, thank God." Tho palace Itself, measured by the rule of proportions, ta remarkably cred­ itable to its bullcle.r3. It Is, In its ex­ terior decoration,\distinctly symbolic of grain, corn occupying no conspicuous place, but ranking in its order. Tho tasty building, adorned with gable, tower and minaret, made an attractive heading for tho principle street Within every township in the county was rep­ resented by an 'exhibit of agricultural products, similar to, though more artistically arranged than the usual fair exhibits.' The wheat, flax and other small grain specimens won the admira­ tion of all. Wheat sheaves from fields that yielded over forty-six bushels per acre, and other grain in proportion, at­ tracted conspicuous attention. The Plankinton schools occupied a hand­ somely arrayed corner, including art pieces worthy the best efforts of older hands and heads.' Three specimens of genuine Art in decoration challenged particular attention. One was an elk, with head upraised as if suddenly startled. Tho blending of color was produced with different shades of corn­ silk, while the spreading antlers wero composed of wheat and flax grains. The whom effect was beautiful and tho general design thoroughly artistic. Opposite this picture was one represent­ ing sheep in tho field. The wool on the animals, perfect in appearance, wai composed of clematis. The third piece was a South Dakota farm house, field and buildings, takes from nature and done in cornstalks. The conduct of the grain palace festi­ val ta not particularly different from that of the county fair. There is art Instead of horse racing, that ta about all. Bands of music, decorated build­ ings, agricultural addresses, stock pens —all these there ta ample time and space for, but for years to cume a new S' erest may bo given and 4»cw ideas developed by the novelty of artisti­ cally embowering a suitable building in the gorgeous and easily blending colors of the harvest time. The painter's brush long ago detected the voiceless melody of color In wood and, field and rick; It remained to the present genera­ tion to use the colors as mixed by naturs Itself. In all their strangely fascinating combinations of tint and tone, and to produce with them living pictures which are In fact living realities, eloquent alike of the art and boundless gener­ osity of diarvest hue and time. How far east the "fad" for palace building may extend remains to be seen. It seems as yet to be confined to the west and south. Texas built a spring palaeo of grain, grasses and-cotton, and won wide notoriety by IL Sioux City has Its annual Corn Palace festival, with Increasing interest from year to year. Other Iowa towns build palaces—a flax palace at Forest City, a hay palace at Algona, a blue grass palace at Creston and a Coal palace at Ottumwa. But now that a notion of a general grain palace, created by aud.for a county population, has been successfully experimented upon It ta not Improbable that tbe Idea may be expanded and enlarged until thn palace Idea obtains a footing in hundreds of communities. It ta a peculiarly apt and happy expression of an appreciation of nature’s bounty. The community that has material for a lavish grain palace hu the Inherent qualities Of soil and climate which as­ sure prosperity. PERSONALS.

The purchaser of tobacco stamps is required to get them from an author­ ized agent of the government, who can only sell to a known dealer. Hence, if a manufacturer was being Supplied by a counterfeiter or in any irregular way the revenue officer would at onqe detect that the stamps used did not come from a government agent.

LARGEST FARM IN THE WORLD: A Million and a Half Acres In Ono Tract Down in Louisiana. In the extreme southwest corner of Louisiana there is a farm measuring 100 miles north and south, and twentyfive miles east and west. The million and a half acres of which it is made up were purchased about seven years ago from the State of Louisiana and from the UnltM States Government by a syndicate of northern capltalista, by whofh it is now farmed. * This Immense tract Is divided into convenient pasture stations or ranches the fencing alone having cost 660,000. All the cultivating, ditching, etc., is done by steam power, a tract of about Half of a mile wide being taken, and an engine placed on each side. The engines are portable, and work a cable attached to four plows, the area plowed in this way, with the labor of only three men, being thirty acres. There is not a single draft-horse on the estate. Horses are, however, used for tbe herdsmen, who look after the 16,000 head of cattle upon the es­ tate, wfiich is traversed for thirtysix miles by the Southern Pacifif Railway. The company has three steamboats upon the 3(X) miles of nav­ igable waters which traverse their es­ tate, and also possesses a shipyard, a bank and rice mills. The largest farm in England Is just about 1-W»th of the size of the United States farm above described; and in Hungary, where the largest farming operations in Europe are carried on. there is no farm that is more than l-15th of the size or area of this glgan tic farm in Loulsana.

The young husband looked down at tbe smiling, blonde face with wist­ ful sadness. “Indeed 1 would, dear," he replied, "but really it costs too much; I don't see how I can afford it with that bill coming due, and my affairs In such an embarrassed condition." The pretty wife pouted a little as she replaced the jewel in its case. It was an exquisite little gem. A spray of dewdrops, every blossom a pearl, holding a diamond dewdrop in its heart, and every tiny green stem and leaf an emerald. "It would be so nice for the ball," she sighed, childishly; “and I haven’t any jewelry fit to weaF." "Then select something less expen­ sive,’ dear,” suggested the husband, obligingly. The shopman strewed the counter with pretty trifles, but Mrs. Winton shook her handsome head. She did not wish to purchase anything else; she disliked common ornaments; if Mr. Winton* was ready, they would go. Mr. Winton expressed his will­ ingness. . Frank Winton followed his wife with a dissatisfied face. “Alice,” he said, joining her on the steps, “it gives me more pain than you think to deny you this; but my affairs will not allow such extrava­ gance just now." A day or two after she sat in her pleasant Ix-d-chambcr, utterly forget­ ful of this little occurrence and the bauble that occasioned it. In a pretty wicker crib lay her six months’ babe; and ou a lounge near at hand, stream­ ing down in lustrous folds, was the mauve silk for her new dress, and while she worked away on her dainty embroidery the young mother divided her admiring glances between the two, almost as much in love with the rust­ ling silk as with* her cooing babe. She was awaiting the coming of Miss Tilcomb. the expert dressmaker, •who was to superintend the cutting out of the new silk. In a little while she arrived. “You seem almost exhausted, Mrs. Winton." she began breathlessly, set­ tling herself on an ottoman. “I ain’t had a night’* sleep for a week. How I’m to get everybody ready for the party is more than 1 know. I was up at Mr. Walsingham's this morning— Miss Edith Walsinghara is decking herself out like a queen, I can tell you." Alice flushed to the very roots of her golden hair, and gave her em­ broidery an impatient shake. She had her failings, as we have said, and her greatest failing, perhaps, was vanity, or a dislike to be excelled. This Edith Walslngham was her rival, and had been from her girl­ hood. First in school, then in the salons of fashion, and lastly in the eyes of the man she loved. Edith was a beauty, and Frank Winton had ventured to admire her before he married Alice, and the silly thing, secure as she was In her husband’s love, could never quite forgive or for­ get it. "Oh, she’s got the loveliest dress you ever set eyes on," continued tbe little dressmaker, warming to her subject. “Green—no common green, though call it; and some say it’s rank poison; but Miss Edith «ay» she will wear it If it kills her. It makes her look­ like a queen, with her clear skin aud fine hair—and then she’s got such ex­ quisite lace, a* tine and white as scafoam. She’ll cut a dash at the parly, you may take my word. She went down town yesterday to get some Jewelry, but she came back all in a pucker—said your husband, was be­ forehand with her, and had got tbe only thing lit to wear." "My husband?” echoed Alice, open­ ing her eyes in surprise. “Ye*: she's been fretting about it all day, and said it was downright extravagauoe for a man of his means to give *> much for a trinket.

But Alice shook her golden head. her mauve dress and adjusted her “No, Frank,” she saW. “I do not golden tresses, with a sharp pain at her heart, and a childish fear lest she covet such trinkets any more; there should be totally eclipsed.

Wilde, of London, one of the editors rtf the Telegraph and a brother of Oscar, was quite a sur­ prise to Mrs. Leslie’s friends, as nr* engagement had been announc’d arid I no preparations had been made ft? the ceremony. Mrs. Frank Leslie was horn in New Orleans gome years ago. The exact dale is shrouded In considerable mys­ tery, although she has twice an­ nounced that she has .seen 38 sum­ mers—once in 1.888 and a second time in 1890. Her maiden name was Marian Florence Follin, and her family is of Huguenot origin. At the commencement of the war she went to Cincinnati, and suliscquently re­ moved to New York, where she began her career as a writer. While working fur yarioiM weekly publications there she met and mar­ ried E. («. Sqttier, at that time edltorin-ebief for Mr. Leslie, but who was subsequently Minister Ip Peru, and iatcr to several Central American States. For reasons which were nev­ er made public, Mrs. Leslie separated (rom Mr. Squierand returned to letcrary. work. Several years later she married Mr. Leslie. The latter's af­ fairs were in a complicated condition at the time of his death, but Mrs. Leslie, who had aided him consider­ ably during the last two year* of his life in his business affairs,.assumed charge of the business and within two years had it upon a paying basis. Mrs. Leslie became well known in London four yearn ago, owing to the unph asantnesrt which took place near Hyde I’urk corner between two of her devoted admirers, the Marquis de Leuvillc and the Prince Eschoff. The contest was terrible while it lasted, and was written up in Hoinprlc style by the London press. M. Leuvillc, who writes tad poetty and spends his money in having it set to’ execrable music, had worshiped Mrs. Leslie for many years. Ou seeing her almost dally In the Row with Eschoff his manly heart burst the bonds of con­ ventionality and he smacked Eschoff on the cheek with his glove. Eschoff replied by smiting the French Mar­ quis across the forehead with Mrs. Leslie’s celebrated mother-of-pearl parasol, breaking it in half. The "titled" gentlemen were com­ pelled to appear at the police court the next morning, and in the cold, clear light of the court it was shown that the “Marquis de Leuvllle" was not a Frenchman, but the son of a London tailor, aud that the alleged Prince Eschoff was no other than tho celebrated Russian forger who had spent seven years in Prussian prisons. Mrs. Leslie was angry over the sei n- ■ j I ; dal that the encounter between her suitors gave rise to, and never re­ ceived nor spoke to one or the other agai n. A_______ _______ Salt Is an absolute essential to the diet of man, says a physician in the Boston Herald. It promotes health In various ways. Many of the functions of the body go on better under its in­ fluence, ami without it the blood be­ comes Impoverished. While a com­ plete deprivation of salt would produce disastrous results, an excess­ ive use of It would* scarcely tie less harmful. In large doses it acts as an emetic; In quantities beyond the re­ quirements of health it Irritates the stomach and intestinesand sometimes purges. Those who use salt unusu­ ally freely almost always suffer more or less from constipation. To drink large quantities of water daily should be the rule with thos? who suffer from constipation. Each day the system needs at least two quarts of water, as al tout that quan­ tity of water .Is used up or thrown out of it every twenty-four hours. Fruits and vegetable food contain much water, and in tea, coffee, soups, etc., considerable is taken habitually. In ail ways, as stated, about two quarts of water should eater the stomach dally. It Is a good plan to drink one or two glasses of water from half an hour to an hour before eating break­ fast. And It may lie either hot or cold, as preferred. Whichever is used, the water should be slowly sipped. To deluge the stomach’ with cold water would be to invite dyspeptic troubles.

The architecture fully equipped and garrisoned and of the proposed building, as shown in the plans, is classic In style, and is In­ ready for any emergency. The Dardanelles, the narrow chan­ nel separating Europe from Asia and uniting the Sea of Marmora with the Grecian archipelago, Is the bone of contention that has caused the Brit­ ish naval demonstration at Mitylene. Several treaties between the five great powers and Turkey have con­ firmed the provision that no ship of war belonging to any nation save Turkey should pass the Dardanelles without the express consent of Tur­ key, all merchant ships being also re­ quired to show their papers to the Turkish authorities.

There was an element of truth in the report. The landing had taken place, but the British force remained on the island but two days. Nevertheless it had the effect of at­ tracting attention to the perennial Eastern question and making the world wonder ’ what would be the next move on the European political chess-board. The whole matter resolves itself Into a very simple ^proposition: Shall Russia have Constantinople and drive the Turk back into Asia whence he came? Since the year 156G, nearly a hundred years after Mohammed the II. stormed Constantinople, the Rus- •Ians and Turks have been fighting. The varloys ware have been compli­ cated by different issues, but the plain object on the part of Russia has been to obtain command of the Bos­ phorus and the Sea of Marmora,«and Xhus have an outlet for her vessels into the Mediterranean. During these centuries there has been vary­ ing success <ni both sides. Russia has never lost an opportuni­ ty of provoking a quarrel. In 1853 ahe was the aggressor, and made war. on the trivial pretext that the holy places in Jhilcstine were improperly. looked after. Turkey was Joined in this struggle by England and France, and peace was proehtimed after the fall of Sebastopol in 1855. This peace treaty of Paris neutralized the Black Sea, Russia and Turkey alike engag­ ing to keep no warships and to main­ tain no arsenal there. The overthrow of France in the war of 1870 and the consequent isola­ tion of England led Russia to declare the provision of the treaty of Paris, which excluded its ships of war and Ha arsenal* from the Black Sea, to be no longer in force. In 1877 the ad­ ministration of government in Tur­ key had grown more corrupt than ever. Some Turkish provinces had revolted, and massacres of the most f-arful character had taken place in Bulgaria. Turkey could give no real security for better government, so Itibwta look the opportunity of de­ claring war. The Balkans were posted in midwinter, Adrianople was occu­ pied. and the Turkish armies were rapt tired or annihilated. The victorious Russians marched to the very suburbs of Constantinople, tn St. .Stefano, where peace was cuneluded March 3, 1878. Great Britain refused to agree to the provisions of An up-country gentleman was rid­ ing along on the care with his daugh­ ter, and as they passed through a railroad yard at a station of large1 di­ mensions the old gent was noticed to be closely remarking certain signsand omens In white letters on the sides of freight cars.

The feat was also accomplished by a Russian squadron in the wars of the last century, but it is probable that modern artillery well directed would make It an al­ most impossible attempt.

Girls too often think that young men are nut easily hurt in love matters, or if they are, they soon re­ cover. As a rule, probably, men love rts deeply as women, and to play with hearts is a sin. I have known girls engaged to two young men at the same time, thought­ less as to the effect upon those whom they could not marry. It Is a pitiful thing to spoil-u life, and it Is not in­ frequently done. The golden rule of doing unto others as we would that they should do unto us is especially applicable here.—Sarah K. Bolton, in Hearth and Hall. CURE SICK HEAD ACHE iwOlTEuksl SWUINKE The editor betrays more faith in Mr. Ruggles’ rain-maker than the artist shows, fur he lias furnished the.“indi­ vidual” with a silk tile and refused him the charity of an umbrella. Regan)ing Senator Farwell’s efforts the Scientific American says: “To us the most practical result likely to follow from these experi­ ments is the extraction of money from the public treasury. Wc have seen how easy it was to obtain the first •10.000 to aid the chimera. “ T asked them to put in the rain appropriation just as an accommoda­ tion to me,’ says the Senator, ‘and the}- did it. Nobody in the House cared to see what No. 17, a little ap­ propriation anyhow, was, and It passed.’ “The idea that rain can be precl p itated by cannon-firing is almost as old as gunpowder; but while there are many curious coincidences there is no satisfactory evidence that rain was so produced. It is on a par with the Chinese mode of conquering the enemy by making a loud noise. “It is true a downpour often follows a clap of thunder; but this does not prove the rain was produced by the concussion. On the contrary, we know that rain probably results from the cooling of moisture-laden air, and simultaneously electricity may ap­ pear. Hence in thunderstorms the aerial concussions arc most probably the results, not' the cause, of rain formation. "Nature works on a vast scale In producing rain; aud it is idle to sup­ pose that the burning of a little ex­ plosive matter can materially affect the boundless atmosphere of the •kies. “In a certain sense It may be claimed that rain always follows an explosion, since all atmospheric changes are successive. If to-day is fair, fire a gun and it will rain either to-morrow or some following day. If to-day is rainy, iW a gun and it will be fair either to-morrow or after­ ward. There appears to be Just as much sense in appropriating public money for explosives to produce dry­ by“ ness in Alaska as to make rain *~ similar means in Texas." If 1 Were • Giri.

A' fretful girl has few friends, and the number lessens year by year. I would say kind things of others, especially of girls. A girt who makes unkind remarks about other girls had better be avoided by young men. She will not make an agreeable companion for life. I would learn how to be self-sup­ porting.

Loud talk or loud dress does not betoken the Some persons are born with a nor­ mal tendency to become fat, bthers with a tendency to leanness. It is the same among the lower animals. The hog is a sort of machine for transforming the odds and ends of food into fat; but the farmer knows beforehand that a little pig with long legs and snout will work off the fat as fast as it can be made. ' So a long­ legged person seldom inclines to obesity. Temperament has much to do with the bodily condition in this respect. In lymphatic people the life processes arc slow, and the fat Is largely depus- i ited, rather than burned. This ternperament furnishes some of the best types of surface-beauty. The person of nervous temperament, on the other hand, by excessive activity of, body and mind, and by predisposition* to haste, worry, fret and impatience, naturally remains lean; but while the features of such a person will proba­ bly lack .softness and roundness of outline, they may exhibit in a marked degree the higher beauties of mind and soul. People who Incline to obesity may hold the tendency in check by appro­ priate food and stirring exercise in the open air, thus both lessening the amount of fat-forming food taken in­ to the system, and causing a more rapid consumption of such fat as is produced: and tfhosc who incline to undue leanness, by pursuing the op­ posite course, may largely increase the amount of.fat deposited. If the leanness is the result oLdigestive weakness, or of a faulty assim­ ilation. little, of course, can be done until a condition of general health has been secured. ' But assuming that the abnormal leanness Is con­ nected with high health, what ad­ vice must be given? First, let the carbonaceous, or fatfonuing, food greatly preponderate over the nitrogenous—such as beef, lamb and codfish. Calling the fat­ forming elements of beef twenty, lamb thirty-five, and codfish five, those of pork will be fifty; beans, fifty-seven; peas, sixty; oats, slxtyslx: wheat, sixty-nine; corn and rye, each seventy-two, rice, eighty, and butter, one hundred. Of course it would not do to take a single carbonaceous article and live on it, for the entire body is to be kept in high health by the proper nourish­ ment of , all the tissues. However, the system can be well supported in full vigor by a vegetable diet, with the addition of milk, eggs and butter. In the second placGj cultivate calm­ ness and quietness In feeling and manner. Avoid impatience and fret. Ik) not overwork with mind or body. We may add that tea-drinking tends to leanness. If possible, milk should be substituted.—Youth’s Companion. . During the passage of a Nova Scotid' bark which is now in Liverpool a most extraordinary affair is reported to have occurred, showing alike the ferocious and dangerous proclivities of the albatross. The bark had Just got out of the latitude where rough weather is always encountered, states the Pall Mall Gazette, and was sail­ ing with a fair wind, when the cry of “Man Overboard" was sounded throughout the ship. The unfortunate fellow was a Dane, one of the crew, and he was seen at a short distance breasting the waves. The bark was brought round, answering her helm Instantly, and the vessel was soon on her way to the struggling man. Sud­ denly two large albatrosses were seen to descend with an eagle-like swoop and attack the poor fellow in a' ter­ rible manner. Both birds dashed at him, and to those on board the ves­ sel it seemed as if they were endeav­ oring to gouge out his eyes with their hooked bills, while with their wings they kept tenting the unfortunate man about the head. The sight was a terrible one, but did not last lung, as th/ bark sailed over the course where the Dane had fallen overboard about seven minutes before, but 4ie was nowhere to be seen. There was no doubt in the minds of those on board that the poor fellow was killed by the alliatrosses, as he was a pow­ erful swimmer and seemed to fight ' ' desperately for a few moments with tho ferocious birds. , Thjc Chinese do not permit their wimeu tu V- photographed. .

It was almost Impossible to hire enough help to secure the crop, and a very-large part of It had to be left standing In tho shock. Then it-was found that the sup­ ply of thrashing machines was Insuf­ ficient, and that paused a delay which left fully half the crop still in the Gelds utithrashed when the rain camo. * Rain has been general and abundant and it is this which has caused the great- At Jamestown, in the North Dakota Jim River Valley, rain and snow fell continually for a day and a night, and last week there was but one full day's wheat thrashing. Reports are received of grain sprouting in the stacks. At Kevil's Lake. In the northern part of the State, a heavy rain fell, which will stop thrashing for several day*. No grain has been stacked owing to tho scarcity of laborers. Lakota (N.

It commenced raining again about Crooks­ ton and continued ail of one day. There have been only a very few days of dry weather In four weeks, and farmers are getting discouraged. In Traverse Coun­ ty and Central Western Minnesota' the larger portion ot tho wheat has not yet been thrashed and men'and machines aro greatly needed. Colonel P. P.

It is just outside the wall of your room on the terrace, you know: and the water falling, a drop at a time, makes that sound of a death-yratch.” The guest said no more, but he de­ clares that it Is beyond the power of any mysterious noise In the wall to keep him awake another night.

A few years ago there was in por­ tions of the new West much lawless­ ness of one kind and another, checked only by an occasional piece of indi­ vidual retribution or by au outburst of vigilance-committee work. A curi­ ous shooting affair which occurred in Medora, North Dakota, is thus des­ cribed by Mr. Roosevelt: 1 did not see the actual occurrence, but I saw both men immediately afterward, and I heard the shooting, which took place in a saloon on the bank, while I was swimming my horse across the river. I will not give the full names of the two con­ testants, as I am not certain what has become of them; though I was told that they had since been put in jail or hanged, I forget which. One of them war. a saloon-keeper, familiarly called Welsby. The other man, Hay, had been bickering with him for some time. One day Hay entered the saloon, and the quarrel became at once violent. Welshy sud­ denly whipped out bis revolver and biased away at Hay. Hay staggered slightly, shook him­ self, stretched out his hand, and gave back to his would-be slayer the ball, saying, “Here, man, here's the bullet!" It had glanced aloug his breast­ bone, gone a roundabout eouf.se. arid come out at the point of the shoulder, when, being spent. It dropped down the sleeve into his hand.

It is a fact of great interest that althougireldstorlans usually date the beginning of Methodism from 1739, when John Wesley organized the -pitted Societies" and entered regu­ larly upon preaching in the open air, it was not till 1791—the year of Wes­ ley's death—that an exact Methodist census was completed—at least any now considered perfectly accurate. At that lime Methodism had been es­ tablished Ik all the British islands, in France, the United States, West Indies, Nova Scotia and Newfound­ land, and included 233 circuits, 540 traveling preachers and 134,599 mem­ bers in good standing. What a mar­ velous growth in the subsequent 100 years! TheCalvinistic Methodists rose from a diversity of views between Wesley ami Whitefield, and have their chief strength in Wales.

Lavalie was at one time one of the most popular mt'n in his part of the State, not only with his own party but with his political, enemies as well. No man had a brighter future than he had a few years ago. Everything which he turned his attention to seemed to succeed, and he had the confidence of every one who knew him. But it s’ems that this confidence let! him into a terrible trap. The respect whlcfi the public had for him enabled him to commit felonies unsuspected, but .one crime seemed to give him an appetite for another, and the popular officer worked deeper and deeper into themire. His extravagant liberality led to crookedness in office, and it was to cover up this crookedness that he and his confederates attempted tc dcstroy the Court House and the records contained therein. The Are has worked incalculable injury to the people of the county, as all the records in the Recorder’s office were totally destroyed. No one can say that he has a good title to hi» real estate, and many will be in* vulvud in endless litigation.

It is a plot fit "for Wilkie Collins to have trace 1. Years ago Searles was a poor boy in Methuen, and he wasn’t liked by the other boys in the town. He was sur­ ly and KltfopiniDnated. so the boys thought, and Jhey made things un­ pleasant for him. In consequence, Searles was always despised by the townspeople of Methuen, and has en­ deavored at every opportunity to show his contempt for the inhabit­ ants. Terry', Nevins and other towns­ people gave costly monuments and buildings, but Searles wouldn’t mend the town pump if his neighbors were dying of thirst. However, he “showed off,” as children say, and erected a gorgeous mansion with IIfly acres about it to make the Methuen crowd Jealous. Of course he took pride in dazzling other Massachusetts towns with tbe<fabulous riches of his doting, wife; but into tbe Methuen spite he put an amount of style that shows a spark of genius. High walls were set to gird the place and guards kept out intruders. The main entrance is flanked with Corinthian columns imported from Italy, but it has never been used save on one occasion. This gorgeous mar­ ble affair was intended for an en­ trance to the town. Just becauss Mr. Searles is a decorator and has roman­ tic ideas. His notion was to make an approach to the town through a park with a grand archway, something be a magnificent chime pt bells that rung out upon the air song after song in honor ot the .old lady’s presence. Then tireworks shot up into the star­ lit sky anti the electric lights biased forth. The old lady stood on the platform a few minutes, and then, with a sad smile upon her lips, was assisted back to her sick bed. She never rose from it again.

They had "adopted the guise which the caricature gives them as a way of showing that they are independent of that wrt of rid­ icule.' But in thn case of the young this spirit, of independence is not often no strong. With a little thought, they must sec that an unjust caricature does not really affect the credit and honor of their occupation; but they are often ambitious of what, is called consideration or respectability, and arc likely to be unconsciously affected by misrepresenting pictures and sto­ ries. .

Only the better classes of Mexicans cat meat, and one of the great Heids of American investment Is in the packing interest* of Mexico. Hams and beef bring high prices, and the meat business of the city is managed by monopolies. Good beeves are worth 'from 825 to -850 a head. There is more mutton eaten than beef. The meat wagons of Mexico City arc mules. Take one of the greasiest, dirtiest mules you can find and fasten a framework of. hooks to a saddle on his back. Let this framework ex­ tend about a foot above the mule*, and on the hooks hang the halves and quarters of beeves, so that the blood drips from them on the ground. Then you have the Mexican butcher cart of the mountains. Tbe butcher or meat peddler wears a great blanket about his shoulders, a broad-brimmed hat on his head, and his feet are bare. If you buy a quarter of beef, he will­ carry it into your house on his head, and if you want a slice he will hack off-a piece for you, and charge you about the same for the neck as the loin. The Mexicans sell every part of Kutxftltuta for Stool. the animal, and in every market you An odd cargo of .African vegetable will find little cook-shops in which shreds of beef are fried and offered fiber, tough as steel itself, is being for sale.

In its wild state . this chaff saves the seed from exposure to weather, sometimes in severe seasons only one or two grains escaping dam­ age by winter's exposure. When first cultivated most kinds of grain had doubtless much more abundant chaff than now. The original wild Indian corn, in which each grain has a husk of its own, is an Illustration of this. But chaff even now serves a very im­ portant purpose. It allows the grain to dry out in stacks, and mows with­ out heating, so as to Injure the seed. Grain threshed before this drying out is accomplished heats much more in­ juriously in the granary. Sometimes in threshing oats that have been drawn in xK*t we have seen tho straw blackened by heating around the bands, while the heads kept separate by the chaff showed each grain bright and uninjured. Wheat that has a strong bearded 'chaff is usually a strong grower, as its germinating power is less apt to be destroyed by heating in the mow. This fact secures the continued popu­ larity of these sorts, despite the un­ pleasantness of working among bearded grain. Reaping machines that bind grain with twine as soon as cut make the chaff evefi more neces­ sary.

The attack on tbe blue jackets of the cruiser Baltimore occurred In the street* of Valparaiso on Oct 16, and was,Jn the opinion of tho officers of tbe Balti­ more, due mainly to the feeling of hos­ tility entertained by the mass Of Chilians toward Americans. Tho police of the city, as the investigation of tbe affair by Captqln W. 8. Schley and tho officers of tho Baltimore showed, assisted thb mob In Its assault upon tbe sailors. The Chilians were armed with knives and pistols, and tho blue jackets bad no weapons. One of the blue-jackcta, Charles Rig­ gin, a boatswain’s mate, was dragged Irom a street car by a mob and shot to death. Five more men were danger­ ously wounded w.th knives and bay­ onet*.

Many of the older residents of this section remember the late Dr. John Warner, of New Milford, and will ap­ preciate this little story. When Dr. Warner was a. student at Yale lie used to come home Saturday nights and return to New Haven Mondays. That was before the days of railways, and as stage-coaches did not leave New Milford Monday mornings for New Haven young Warner used to mount his father’s horse and ride to Yale on horseback. There were Sev­ eral toll-gates On the route, and at each Warner would pay the return toll for his horse. Arriving at Yale he would affix to the bridle a card bearing these words: “Please not stop this horse." The sagacious ani­ mal would Jog. along homeward, in­ variably reaching his stall at New Milford all right. The toll-takers got to know the horse and he was never interrupted. Fridays the horse would be started alone to New Haven with a small pouch attached to his saddle, in which was the exact change for the tolls. Each toll-taker would take his toll and the horse would trot along, reaching Yale in the evening. This practice was kept up until the young doctor was gradu­ ated.—Danbury (Conn.) News. Every man who has a parrot is al­ ways telling what a wonderful bird is his. A lawyer In New York owns one of these “talking devils." A friend went home with him to dinner recently, and when the two men were approaching the house the lawyer said: "My parrot can recognize my foot­ step as soon as It falls in the hall. When I open my door he always cries out from a back room, ‘Hallo, Will; come in here.’ Now," added-the lawyer, as he slipped his key Into the latch, “Just listen.” They listened, and this is what they heard: “Hallo, Will, you old bald-headed fool; come In here.* The lawyer, for one minute, looked as if the house had fallen oh him. And it was all the fault of one of his brothers, who had heard the lawyer boast so often of his parrot that he taught the bird to insert the “bald­ headed" part.

Anyone who has ever dreamed of flying must have a vivid impression of pie pleasure that would l>e de­ rived from the ability to navigate the air. From the days of the Montgolfiers and iheir hot-air balloons to the pres­ ent time, many false hopes have been held out that man was on the. point of making a highway of the atmos­ phere, as he has done Of the sea. But repeated disappointment* have bred general Incredulity on this sub­ ject. When, however, a man of tho scientific reputation of Prof. S. P. Langley demonstrates, as he has re­ cently done by a series of original ex­ periments, that heavy IkxIIcs can be sustained in the air, with rapid mo­ tion, there Is good reason to hope that the problem of mechanical flight may yet be solved. . The principle upon which Professor Langley worked will be readily grasped by any boy who has ever shfed a thin, flat stone, or a piece of slate into the ai f- or upon the surface of smooth water, and watched It skim along. Professor Langley experimented with thin metallic planes, and dis­ covered that the time of fall of such a plane, even though it may be heav­ ily weighted, can be indefinitely pro­ longed by imparting to the plane a sufficiently swift lateral motion. In other words, the plane may be marie to slide through the air without de­ scending to the earth. By tipping the plane so that as it moves forward the air will strike against Its under surface, the ten­ dency'to fall to the ground is counter­ balanced. One of the most interest­ ing facts shown by the experiments is, 'tpquote Professor Langley’s words, that, “the force required to sustain Inclined planes in horizontal aerial locomotion diminishes instead of in­ creasing when the velocity is aug­ mented." It is only necessary that the flying plane shall carry its own motor and steering apparatus. in order to trans­ form it into a veritable ship of the air. We may soon see Professor Langley’s idea put into practice, for Mr. Maxim, in England, is reported to be about to launch a flying machine, constructed on this principle, and consisting of a plane one hundred and ten feet long by forty feet wide, which is to be propelled by a screw driven by a petroleum condensing en­ gine weighing eighteen hundred pounds. Such a machine speeding through the air with a load of passengers would lx* almost as wonderful a sight as Prince Ahmed’s flying carpet.— Youth’s Companion. Henry Jenkins, of Bolton, Lanca­ shire, England, lived to be 160 years okl. Mrs. Anna Saville, a writer of Jenkins’ time, has the following in her account ot him: "I questioned him about his age. He said he was 162 or 163. I asked him what public event he could longest remember. He said the battle of Hodden Field, tfhen Henry VIII. was King, lie said he was then between 10 and 12 years of age, and was sent to North­ allerton with a horse-load of arrows, .but that a bigger boy was sent to the army with him." All this agrees with the history of that time, bows and arrows being then in use. The tattle of Flodden Field was fought Sept. 9, 1513, and Henry Jenkins was then a boy between 10 and 12 years of age, died Dec. 9, 1669, so that he must have lived at least 169 years, sixteen year longer than old Parr, who was born in Shropshire In 1483, and died in 1635. If this account of the age of Jenkins Is reliable, he lived longer than any other man in the known world, except Methuselah, concerning whose age there has be 'i much dis" pute. , OUR BUDGET OF FUN HUMOROUS SAYINGS AND DO­ INGS HERE AND THERE.

'ihe career of the tow government apj cars <o have bccu successful until recently. Though Internal dissensions wrre constant,they were of no magnitude, and there had never been any serious ap­ parent attempt to install ihe old mon­ archy. Prompt recognition from foreign powers was obtained, commercial -treat ie* promulgated, and everything seem­ ed «o point tons; eedy and firm inau­ guration of a purely repub.lean form of government Wh:le the peaceful transition from a monarchical to a popular government Is not usual in the affairs of the world, hi llio case of Brazil it excited no very great com mo nt Dom Pedro had for years been foremost among liberalminded potentate^ HI* rule had been pacific, generous and benign. He wai be oved by bls sub. eels, profoundly con­ scious of their trust tn him, alive to to their Interests. sod active iu their promotion, to a surprising degree una’Tected by Jealousy of his right* and privileges as emperor, and singularly fortunate in his choice of odvlsera. In fact, his rule of Brazil was monarchical mare in tradition than in reality. Of all old governments on earth, not excepting England, his ap­ proached tho nearest to a popular form. Fost red by this very liberality the spirit of repub icanism grew until it could no lunger gemaln subordinate. With a precipitation that seemed a.little uncalled for, Dom Pedro was deposed and sent to Spain. De Fonseca was elected President, and the new republic launched. Tho form of governmeat was very similar to our own. Turbulence markedthe et­ tablisbment of the inovstion, but, as said before, no serious outbreaks oc­ curred. Of cour e, there are those, power­ ful In wealth and station, who regretted the departure of the Emperor, but they remained discreetly and ominoady pas­ sive. And now comes President Fonseca’s proclamation dissolving Congress and declaring himself Dictator. The nows came with* startling abruptness, and great anxiety is felt as to the result. It Is officially announced that the Pre idopt has convened tbo natk>:> to elec' newreproMiitaiives at a date to be determined upon later. Therevolutlon had its origin I n a row that broke out in tbe Legis*stive Chamber. Tho Senate pas-cd a bill to establish the responsibility pf tho Pres­ ident for hl* different acta This act mot Fonseca's violent disapprobation, and he refused to accept wbat he termed any such dictation as ti/hls rights and duties from Congress Ho ordered the troops under arms throughout Bi» Nov. 4, aud this led to intense excitement am ng tho populace. Bands of tpponents of tbe government. Including old Republicans and Monarchists, assembled and shouted out their disapproval Be­ tween them and this old cry many fights took place. Riot* occurred In the stree's all over the city. The Igcops were tlicn given orders to fire upon tho rioters, which they did. Many of the rioters were killed. Rio was now pra- tlpally In a state of slego It was not safe to stir out of coo * Soldiers patrolled tho street*. Martial law was proclaimed. As In pre­ vious eases a stri<t censorship of tho press wns established iAll communica­ tion by te'egraph was stoppe f. A spirit of revolt was manifested In the army. When Fonseca was Informed of this fact he went at once to tho troops aud made them a stirring address, promising to guard their into rest* and to protect thorn in all tholr rights His words had a good effect Tl o unruly spirits w. re completely brought around to his side, and at tho end of bls address loudly chccied him. The chiefs of tho army tl o.p roquos'od Fonseca to r sumo tho fun> tlons of a dictator, saying that the emergency de­ manded it He appeared to demur fora time, bnt al length.gave his consent Ho the i issue I a decree relating tho cause of disagreement between him and Congress, and defending his position. At the »ame time he declared that Con­ gress had gone so far in Its attempts to Interfere with his prerogatives that he thereby dissolved it. It ha 1 no longer any ex. use for existing, be said, since it was passing laws that were contrary to tho constitution Tho troops u arched to tho palace, where I'resident Fonseca was holding a conference with his military command­ ers A conference of the Ministers was also in progress. At V a. m. Fonseca s d tree was made public. He said tho dictatorship was to last until tho polit­ ical revolutions were at an end and law­ makers learned to keep in progress with repub.icon ideas A dictatorship, he 'added, was the best thing for the dis­ tracted country. He disclaimed any In­ tention of prolonging It after peace had boi-n restored throughout tho country. Telegra ns received from Porto Alegro, I i the State of Rio Grande de Sul. de­ clare that the authority of tho dictator Is not recognized there. Alegro has a population of some 30,000 Inhabitants. IU • Grinds de Sul is ono of the most t ro’perons and indcfendont of all the States It has a popu’atlon of nearly .'.00 uoc. The republicans in it say that they will not tolerate a dictatorship and are demanding armed opposition to Fon­ seca. They say that he wishes to ret-to c Imperial rule, with himself as EmEsror, and that he has grown tired of apubll* an Government The navy has pronounced in favor of Fonseca. Fonseca, in his manifesto, says that bo will govern In accordance with his con­ stitution. Tbe National Guard has been mo’ Hired In tbe I*rovin< e of RIo Grande. '1 ho troops are In their quarters.

The house of Rraganza ' had claim* enough on the Portuguese monarchy by relation­ ship and tradition, but the republican sentiment h> Portugal Is so strong that the monarchy hr. s trouble enough to take care of Itself. The same is true of Spain, where Castelar heralded the fall of tho Brazilian monarchy with rejoic­ ing. Franco had no asylum because an Orieanist IMnce was the Emperbr's sou-ln-law and his wife was to become Queen on Dom Podro's death The French Republic has bad enough of Or­ leans conspiracies at home without giv­ ing help to them abroad. But tn Germany there was a kindly feeling toward the deposed monarch. Germany was also anxious to extend her Influence in f-outh America The Cxar of Russia took the exile “of hta brother” Dom Podro as a personal affliction and for a jear refused lo rocognke that there was a Brazilian Republic. Queen Victoria was also shocked at. the way a ruler by divine r ght bad been shipped out of his own country. The English merchants did not care so much for the sentiment of the thing, but they saw its commer­ cial bearing. So tho weight of English influence was thrown against the new commonwealth. President Fonseca and bls advisers knew they had nothing to hope for from Europe and they turned expectantly to the United titotea They were not dis­ appointed, for tho administration simply reflected public sentiment In recogniz­ ing and upholding the republic. Tho reciprocity treaty followed. > It was a good trade arrangement for both coun­ tries, but with tho Brazilian statesmen commerce was a secondary considera­ tion. They wanted to be closer lo the northern republic and to be assured of its moral support if the struggle to re­ establish tho monarchy camo to pass. The reciprocity treaty wa* made the point of attack by th ■ enemies of the re­ public. and the British inflpence was directed against it That tells the whole story and shows where the Interests of the United States He Ji has not much of a navy avail­ able. but It will manage to secure spare vessels enough to see that the Rrarillaiis are not entirely at the mercy of Euro­ pean fleets. The belief In diplomatic circles is that the conspiracy to re-estab­ lish tho monarchy has been fomented by the Orleanist son-in-law rather than by Dom Pedro himself One day a celebrated naturalist en­ tered the shop of the late Charley Jamrach, the noted London collector, of animals, and said: “Now, Jamrach, about the muscular power of the boa constrictor—I suspect it has been ex­ aggerated.” “Not a bit, sir," said tbo collector, taking a very fine specimen out of a box. “He seems very lazy and sleepy," said the professor; “I don't think he could exert himself in thia cold climate if he tried.** “You bet, sir," Jamrach said, and wound him gently round tho professors body. He laughed. “I thought so, Jamrach,” ho says; “I feel nothing.” But presently he sings out: “Take him off, Jamrach! take him off, man; he's strangling me!" So Jamrach Just caught hold of the boa’s tail and unwound him off the professor, ring by ring. When ho had got his breath again, the profes­ sor admitted there -tfas more “latent muscularity" about the creature than he. had suspected. “Now, sir,” said Jamrach afterward, “that boa was half asieep and stupid, for he had Just swallowed two rabbits, six guinea pigs, and thirteen pounds of raw beef. If he’d been fasting, it's my belief he’d have swallowed the professor himself bodily, for he was a small gentleman." Upon another occasion, a quiet family bought a wild beast, warranted to be a quiet and manage­ able pet—perhaps a sloth or a tapir. Some days after, Mr. Jamrach, exam­ ining his books, perceived that tho item tapir, or sloth, or whatever tho animal may have been, was not en­ tered with proper regularity in tho ledger and day-book—was, indeed, mixed up with some other entry. Suspecting something wrong, Mr. Jamrach called a hansom and drove at once to the suburban residence of his customer. His ring was not an­ swered; but, at length, the cook, pale and trembling, appeared behind tho area railings. "For God’s sake, Mr. Jamrach," she cried, “save us from that awful wild beaft! Master and mistress couldn’t stand It any longer, and have gone to the sea-side, and tho housemaid and I daren't leave the kitchen for fear of being eaten.” At that moment a very fine and very hungry puma—the fiercest, perhaps, among all the carnivora—put Its head out of the drawing-room win­ dow.

TUom ejaculation*, spoken rapidly and excitedly, broke tho sileneu of a Weird and tragic scene In ono of the loveliest valleys of the far West. They were directed toward a man who had suddenly appeared upon a land­ scape which for over an hour had held half a dozen human figures, who bad been lurking in tho vicinity of a lonely stretch of railroad. Tho time was night, relieved by tho refulgence of a September moon. Its rays just beginnicgjo il.umlno mount­ ain and valley with a rare crystalline beauty. Half a mile d'stent, where tho river stretched a dim silver thread of radi­ ance, a lonely station showed,’ from which glimmered the light of a single lantern. At tbo spot where tho story opens, tho single railway track curved over a high trestle work and then descended on a sharp grade toward the station and the stream. For years this section, especially tho course pursued by the railroad, which was a recently constructed branch of the great Pacific system, bad been known as the Lone Canyon trail The station was called Ten-spot, and the nearest settle­ ment was twenty miles over the moun­ tain at Miner s Gulch. Beyond that stretched an alternation of plain and hill and valley, infested even at the time <f our narrative by marauding bands of savages. The region was one In which a rough, uncultured Bet of miners and rangers resided, and outlaw bands found It a fa­ vorite field for tboir operations. As has been stated, one hour previous to the utterance of tho words that begin this chapter half a do'en men lode up to tbo scene, dismounted silently, led their horses to a thicket near by, and then became massed together near tho railroad. Horn for some mommts they were en­ gaged in somo mysterious movements about the rails. One of their number went down the tracks to tho station, returned, mattered an ominous “Ail right," and then their dusky figures moved hither and thither. Not an audL ( bio word was spoken until a tali, full- ' bearded man, evidently the leader of tho . party, startled his companions with the exclamation: "Get to cover! Someone Is coining!" Somoonb was coming straight down tbe tracks—a man past middle ago. stal­ wart, rugged, and attired in tho garb of ; a frontiersman. His gait wn a careless and lelsurely one, as if ho had got tired of waiting for the train at the depot and was strolling about to kill time until It arrived. All unaware of the perilous ambuscade that lay in wait for him, ho was not con­ scious of the presence of a foe until ho turned a curve in the rails and fell back with a startled cry: "What's this! An obstruction on tho road! They're at It again! Rodskins or outlaws; there's danger afloat for tho night train, sure." Ho turned to hasten back to the sta­ tion. At that moment six dusky forms arose from tho bushes that lined tho side of the tracks. “Fire!" -Who is Eh?" “A spy—ono of tho vigilantes! Down him, or the game is lost." There was a blinding blaze of light, and six revolvers flashed in the moon­ light “Missed him—after him! He must not escape and give the alarm!" cried the leader of tho coterie. The stranger had indeed been missed Be must have Lx-en magically alert, for as tbe bullets whistled pa<*t him he drop­ ped to the ground and they flow over his head. •You scoundrels! Come on, whoever you are!" His voice, e'ear and stentorian, rang out like an Indignant roar of defiance and courageHo had again sprung to his feet and had drawn his own revolver. At that moment his enemies made a united rush for the spot where he wan He was forced to retreat a step or two A creeping vino entangled his foot, and be fell violently backward. -Take that '." Tho words were spoken by the leader, as he reached the prostrate man. “Despard—outlaw and renegade! I know you. Coward! villain! If I was at fair odds with you------" The words wore silenced suddenly. The leader of the bend—tho man he had called Despard—ha 1 raised a curved iron bak be held in bls hand. It de­ scended wlih terrific force, cutting a cruel gash in the forehead of the cour­ ageous stranger, stunning him to Insen­ sibility. Despard's eyes wore a haunted, fright­ ened expression, and his face was death'y pale as he surveyed bls unconscious foe. “You’ve settled him, Despard,■ spoko one of the men as he crowded to hiss’d". •What does it mean?" Despard spoke tn <n awed tone. •What mean?" "That man." "You know him-" “Know him! Look again, Jim Dan­ ton. Ah! I thought you wou!d recog­ nize him." Despard's companion peered close at the face of the prostrate man. "Ranger Ralph!” he gasped out. "Yas. Do you remember when last ve saw him, and we left him to die a prisoner in a cave in the Utah hills? He had crossed our trail, determined to bring us to justice for a stage robbery. He swore then that he would be avenged. He escaped. What can his presence here mean but disaster to our plans? His object is the same as our own—to meet the girl who stands between me and a royal fortune. It is an ill omen, Danton. I fear, I tremble." “For a dead man!" scoffed Danton, Je*ringly; "for be is certainly dead this t'me." , “He may have friend* near at band* •We can soou find that out But no, no; he would not walk to his fate that way if he knew wa were h«-re or auspected our plans. “ , •There wa.? no one there?" "No one but the depot agent." •You are sure?" •Positive ■ "Go there again and reeonnoite* .If there are any others arrived since we came, return and retxirt at once. " -Al! right." • Danton returned to tho'leader's side, . who bad walked away from the place ’ where Ranger Ralph lay. “Everything to arranged for the wreck, Captain,” he said to Despard- “As to yonder enemy—ranger,-decllve and vigi­ lante—the blow with the Iron bar has settled him You are sure tbe girl will be on the tra n." "Inez?" “Yea." “Of course she wilt I received post-| tlve Information. Remember, Danton, i that she Is of more valud to us than tbe booty." “That's all right You and I will look out for tbe girl, and the others for the booty- But If she should be killed?" "Then I benefit just so much, that's a’I," replied Despard, coolly. "What makes me uneasy to Ranger Ralph’s ap­ pearance tinre." •Why so?" "Because he was one of her dead father's companions. ■ . "Well?" "Inez's father was one of his old-time friends. He probably warned him of his renegade re'atlve." “Yourself?" “Exactly. If so, even if the girl were dead, my c'aim might be deputed, or my past record would prevent my ap­ pearing to secure the fortune No, Dan­ ton, the only way Is to get | oasosaion of the girl; and I love her just enough to want to marry her. Your men insisted on a wreck to sacuro what booty the train had I take the chances of tho accident killing tho girl. Al all events, she must bo secured by us, or her death assured before-tho night Is oyer." “You are'a relative of Robert Tracey, her father?" “A distant one—but tho only ono after her." " . “And the fortune?" • "Is a mystery. In a way, and was left by Tracey In possession'of an old recluse known as Hermit l!cn. The story to too complicated a ono to relate now. Ro­ mo mber. tbo girl Is our especial care; when tho disaster comes, search for her." “All right, Despard. Lot us get with tho boys. The train will be duo now In a short time. ” The two mon moved fomo d stance away, to whoio an obstruction consist­ ing of logs, rocks and iron bad been piled on Vie track. • At that moment tbo man Vance, whom Danton had sent to tho depot, returned. ■Well?" asked the latter. "No one there but tho depot agent." "And tho man wo had to settle yon­ der?" ■I guess ho had just arrived, for two horses were standing outside the station. 1 cut thorn loose for fear of accidents." “Two!" whispered Despard, In an In­ tense tone to Danton. "Do you hear?” “Yea" “Ranger Ralph expected someone on the train " “Evidently." “And that one was tho girl who is tho object of all our plots—Inoz Tracey.” CHAPTEH II. ■ TOO LATk. “The scoundrels! Dyke Despard, my score against you—dooper than ever, for this cowaidly act—will be a terrible one when your day of re konlng comes!" The words emana*ed in a pained, gasping tone of voice from the spot whmo a few minutes previous they had, to all soomlng, viewed tbo dead form of Ranger Ralph, the border scout and de­ tective. , Ranger Ralph himself spoke, but his haggard face and pa:n-stricken eyes told that the blow Despard had dealt him was a t -rrlblo one in Its effects Under it bn had gone down, like a shot.

The blood from a ghastly wound on tho head deluged bis fate and showed a deep gash that would leave a sear to bls dying day. His head was dizzy, his sight blinded, his strength soom>-d leaving him. He essayed to rrise. and then, with a groan, fell back exhor ted. SuddoniV every nerve seemed to thrill to quickened action, and ho forget his wound and his helplessness- for the mo­ ment “The train!” he gasped, wildly. “I had forgotten It Ob. these villains!

Precious moments were slipping by; ho realized this, and tho thought nerved him to renewed effort Ten minutes later the single occupant of the station, a young, handsome man of about twenty years, started from reading a paper as a suspicious sound echoed from tho direction of tho door. His hand sought tbo revolver at his belt, as he remembered th" perils of tbo times, but droppod it to h!s side, and he uttered an amazed cry as his glance fell upon tbe strange figure that filled the doorway a moment later "Great heaven*, man!" be cried; "what does this mean?” He stoo 1 staring in blank horror at tbe blood-covered form of Ranger Ralph, who had crept over the threshold. •Help me to a chair, quick!" gasped the almost exhausted scovk wu trembling with ox cl tom tit as hi discerned some m;»lery in the mannet of hto visitor.

People have repeatedly naked me which of my trick* have pleased ms the most and which I take most delight in performing. Naturally the effort that brings the greatest success is regarded by a man his beat. I consider the trick of restoring tha shattered mirror as my most famous one. This I had the honor of perform­ ing before the Czar of Russia npon an invitation to give an ovhibion at hi* court. It was done unexpectedly to the sj ectaturs, and was not down on the regu­ lar bill. While playieg billiard* with the attaches of the court after the performance, tho Czar being pres­ ent in the saloon, I shot a ball with all my strength against a plate­ glass mirror extending from floor to ceiling. * It was shivered into fifty pieces. Consternation was depicted on every countenance; and none more plainly than my own. While the Czar courteously waived my apology, considering the* destruc­ tion of the mirror av trifling, and order­ ed the game to proceed, I could easily see that mv awkwardness maae a dis­ agreeable impression. With the Czar's j>ermi«sion I exam­ ined the mirror to estimate the damage done and the possibility of repairing it. While so engaged one of th* suite playfully challenged me to exercise my art and make the mirror whole again, never dreaming Jhat his challenge was the very cue I wanted, and not con­ sidering the acceptance of it as pos­ sible. I hesitated an instant and then ordered the mirror to be covered with a cloth, entirely concealing it from view. On the removal of the o’oth, after ten minutes, the mirror was found with­ out a flaw, and as perfect as before the damage I I will leave it to my readers* imagination to decide how this trick was done.

In many cases they hQld the polls at election and at­ tacked, maimed and terrified those voters who were opposed to their friends. If arrested, such was the dread they had Inspired, and so great, their influence with the courts, that conviction was almost impossible. This immunity from punishment in­ creased their insolence and violence, and it wns evident that no reform could be made while they remained In the State. What was to be done with them? They could mot be hanged; they would lie a source of expense and trouble; safe aud satisfactory imprift-1 oninent was plainly impracticable. It was therefore suggested that if, after fair trial, the charges against them were proved, no course would be so satisfactory and safe as banishment, wit h a warning never again to Return under pain of death.

RECKONING TIME. • The observatory does not reckon Its time by tho sun, but by the so-called "fixed" stars, which are so far off that their position with relation to the earth does not change appreciably within a few months or years. Star time is the only true time, therefore. The oper­ ator looks through a big telescope and watches for a given star that he knows to cross the plane of the meridian. As it crosses he records what moment it does so, as shown by a star time clock with a twenty-four hour dial. Then he consults a printed table that show* him at just what number of hours, minutes and seconds the star in ques­ tion must actually have crossed the meridian plane. The table is righb and by as much as the star time clock differs from it, the latter is wrong. No attempt is made tc set the star dock right, allowance be­ ing simply made in subsequent calcula­ tion for the error thus discovered, which amounts only to a fraction of a second in some days. Next the cor­ rected time, as taken from tho eta: clock, is reduced to sun tiiRe, which re­ quires some figuring, inasmuch as the star year is one day longer than the sun year. A sun time or “standard" time clock stands close by, and the amount that this varies from the truth having been ascertained, allowance is made for tha error in sending the noon stroke all over the country. At the observatory all the chronom­ eters made for tho nary are tested and regulated before they are sent cut on vessels, cadh one of which is supplied with three first-class chronometers, as well as one that is half used up, called a "hack,” for carrying about and for rough service generally. It takes twenty-one weeks of testing to prop­ erly regulate and prove a chronometer, and part of the trial consists in subject­ ing the Instrument to the action of cold in an ice lx>x and to heat communicated through ft earn pipes. Bach chronome­ ter when given out is accompanied by a chart telling just how it will vary under certain temperature. A curious exhibit now shown at the observatory includes eight chronometers that went down in age. Address A. P.

So tbe Junta came into power with feelings of mistrust toward the great republic and of Ill-will toward its cltl-' sens and traders resident in Chili. This, however, can not be considered., an excuse for Chili’s course in regard to the outrage upon our unarmed sailors. The attack ou our sailors was fol­ lowed by a demand for an explanation by tbe United States Minister. The reply qf tbe Junta was expressed In strong A language. It practically amounted to a refusal to accept re­ sponsibility for the affair and assigned thc"»mattcr to tbe civil channels of decision and adjudication. The tone of the reply was a great surprise to this country. At the same time the Intentlente of Valparaiso refused to guarantee Ute safety of market twists coming to that city early Ln the morning from the United States warship Baltimore, nr Ute safety of th ? officers of that metrically opposed lo anything fa­ vored by the United States. As Chili (although a tiny nation of only two millions in 1865) waxed strong she began to look about her' for an extension of territory, and nat- urally the excellent navy which she had been enabled to build came into play. Trouble arose between Chill and her next neighbor, Bolivia, about the nitrate beds and guano deposits which itad attracted foreign capitalists in swarms. The mines were in Bolivia, but Chilian capitalists, operating^, doubtless, for foreigners, were work­ ing them under treaty stipulations. Bolivia imposed export duties on the nitrates. Pent was supposed by the Chilians to have instigated this action, with a view to suppressing the competition of Chili in the nitrate and guano trade, which in Peru was an im­ mensely profitable Government mo­ nopoly. Chili’s protest against the export duty was listened to, but shortly afterward the Bolivians confiscated the Chilian mine property, and war was imminent Arbitration was proposed, but fell through, and Chill went to war with Peru and Bolivia, and whipped them both. The little nation crowed so loudly that she was beard In Europe, and England gave her much praise. It was in connection with tne set­ tlement of tbe peace between Chili and the beaten countries that the United Slates first got a revelation of The monument stands on the. west shore of Cayuga Lake, Seneca County, New York.

Fur­ thermore, tho American Government was not disposed to see Chili, which was little else than an oligarchy, re­ publican only in name, assuming dic­ tation in South America, with John Bull looking over her shoulder. The decided discouragement shown by thhF Government to the schemes of territorial aggrandizement set forth by Chill brought Chilian hatred of this country to white heat. Wc admitted Chili’s right to a war in­ demnity, but not to annihilate her late enemies. During the ten years since 1881, Chill has grown more and more ag­ gressive, and had it not been for her Internal troubles would already have tried some coup to diminish the grad- 119 SICK MH The San Francisco has been ordered to San Francisco from Callao, Peru.

Were a war declared it must be an aggressive one. The United States would lx; forced to ca'rry hostilities into the enemy's territory, and Chill would act solely on the defensive. The latter is a simpler method of warfare, and one in which an inferior force can successfully cope with a superior one. So it is not to be pre­ sumed that the United States govern- mcntl would have an easy time in carrying war into Chilian territory. The tusk of conquest would not be an eaiy one, although there can be no douht as to the ultimate result. Chilian torpedo boats are so numerous HEAD ... ACHE the trank of an oak tree.

The United States would be at a great disadvantage, too, In supplying its ships with coal in the event of war. A naval officer says that each ship would have to be accompanied by a collier and take ‘ coal from ‘it at sea—a difficult operation, which could scarcely be performed exqept in good weather. In case of trouble the destruction to our commercial Interests which a well-manipulated Chilian navy could cause can scarcely be estimated.

That is a total of 17,243 vessels of all descriptions, with a total tonnage of 2,781,646. all engaged in the coast trade. The tonnage engaged In for­ eign trade'is ab iut 715,908 tons. A fine Chilian cruiser, like the Esmer­ alda, could have great sport, no doubt, in operating on this commerce. “Churn-dog” stories are always in order. A city man who used to live on a farm, as so many city men did when they were boys, sends us this: “At home on the farm we had a number of cows, so many that churn­ ing was too heavy a task for even the men folks, so Mr. L. rigged up a dog churn, an inclined wheel, a sort of canine treadmill. It became the duty of Ponto, a large white mastiff, to tread that monotouous cycle,-and not­ withstanding the toothsome, bit of meat that was fastened on a lath within four inches of his nose, he was not at all proud of his position aud responsibility. He made several atktempts to shirk his task, and twice succeeded. He got to know when churning day came around as well as any one in the house. “On the morning of that day he would loiter about the kitchen door until he was fed, and as soon as he heard the note of preparation—the bringing of the cream jugs, preparing the churn, etc.—he would put for t he woods and would not be s6en again until night. The day of churning was changed, and next morning a more crestfallen and astonished dog never was seen when he was collared and harnessed to the beam which set the dash in motion; he looked posi­ tively foolish. He did his work, but with lowered head, and evidently in cogitation. “On another occasion he tried an­ other dodge. When they were about t»> put him on the wheel he ran up to bis mistress. holding up one paw, affecting to be lame. She thought much of the dog, and was inclined to let him off that day. The next in­ stant he .was seen charging over a high fence after a neighbor's cat. ‘Well,’ said the old lady, ‘if ho can go after a cat like that he is able to chu^n.’ And he did, and never tried to shirk his work again."—Forest and Stream. A New I'm for Waale Gl*«a. A new use has been found for waste glass by a firm in Paris, says the American Manufacturer. Any frag­ ments of broken glass of various col­ ors are mixed together, after having been broken to a suitable #ize; they are then placed in molds lined with silica, talc, or some other resisting material, and tired. A coherent mass is produced which can be dressed and cut into blocks, which are, of course. Irregularly colored. Such blocks may be used as artificial marble. The blocks are usually rough on one side, owing perhaps to incomplete fusion; this gives a surface which is admir­ ably adapted for causing them, es­ pecially if they are slab-like in form, to adhere to walls with the addition of a little mortar. Fine decorative effects can thua be produced. Designs tn relief can be obtained by pressure while the block or slab Is still plastic. If a suitable mold be prepared with movable partitions, then pieces of glass can be arranged in such a way that, upon firing, a very effective “stained glass” window is produced, sttlei be thrown open to women, and the necessity of using “leading," as in fiat women duly qua'ifled be allowed the ordinary way. being thus obvi­ to practice the medical profession.• ated.

The vainglorious dream of Chili is that if she could draw the country into a fight, she could quickly worst her in a naval encounter. She would then, during the negotiations fbr peace, demand a foreign protectorate, would throw herself into the arms of England and Germany, and would thereafter be free to operate as she pleased against the policy of the United States in South America. Thus those nations which have most interest in checking the development of our policy would gain their point, without making open war on our trade. It is natural that the Oongresslonalistrt should, feel somewhat bump­ tious just now, and at this moment they are ready to fight the United States rather than to admit that kill­ ing and wounding American sailors is an offense which must be apologized for. This party will have abundant moral support form those European powers anxious to see the United States get a substantial set-back in South America. The active army of Chill comprises in normal times MO officers and 6,671 men. The National .Guard, which can readily be put into the field, comprises 42,120 infantry and 8,970 artillery, so that Chili can easily put 60,000 troops into the field. As Chill would depend almost entIrcJy on her navy in case of a fight, a comparison of her naval force with that of our own may be of Interest. by CrsKtats crraaywiMwa. ar sens by maXL CARTER MtWOWI CO., New York.

TERMS: Knight has a new Hoe of Another Caao of the Bitar Bitten. jeweLi^Y, Monday morning two men, selling a "patent chicken lice exterminator”, nut in their appearance at John Ehret's plain in West Kalamo; Mr Ehret not being at home, a fact which in all probability they knew before stopping, they proceeded to talk the good qualities of the “exterminator" to Mr. Ehret’s eldest son. Mr. Ehret Jr. was rather pleased with the goods, and after listening to the glowlnir stories of how the money would roll into his bands if he would only pur­ chase some “territory", concludea he must have it, and the more the bet­ ter; but then, he bad no money: what would he do? After considerable parley he offered to trade three tons of his father’s hay for the exclusive right to sell the “exterminator" in three townsbipA The bargain was made at once, and the boy's countenance lit up with a happy smile, as much as to say “the world is mine;” his fortune was made; no longer would he be compelled to chase the plow around the field. The agents immediately hired three men with teams to draw the hay to Nashville, and came to town with the hay that afternoon. The men had some trouble in finding a purchaser for the hay, but finally sold it tojacob Osmun for six dollars a. ton. They had only got two loads unloaded when up drove Mr. Ehret sr., forbade them to H. unload the other, and to immedi­ ately settle for the hay or he would have them arrested. This they’ were not in the mood to do at first, but finally went down in their pockets and wild Mr. Ehret eight dollars a ton for the hay, which, after paying two dollars a ton to get it drawn to Nash­ ville, made a pretty dear hay deal. Mr. Ehret claimed that his son was not responsible for what he did as he had never done business of any kind for himself. Breast Pins, Brooches, Ladies’ Chaixu.

I When, on tha 15th of November, I860, Do n Pedro, Emperor ot Brazil, was hurtled on board a steamer at Rio Ja­ neiro, and shipped to Lisbon, the world regarded the feat asthe mo»t completely successful and a! sokitely bloodless revo­ lution In all history. Those nations, like our own. who had ceased to respect the divine theory of monarchs, clapped their hands with _oy and welcomed another and Important acquisition to the great family of republics. Though that revo­ lution was as unexpected as it was thor­ ough, preparations had been made for it as for back as 1883, b.' tho establishment of a military dub, which wa < the focus of republican Ideas,and of whom the leading sjfrlt was President Da Fonseca. Doni 1'odro, who had ruled the country 'since 1831, was a man. like Abraham Lincoln, who, if he erred at all, erred on the side of mercy. Like Lincoln, ho hid also . DOM I'EUKIl. liberated the slaves: and as a member of the House of Braganza he had Indulged to tho utmost the political pretensions of tho Catholic clergy. While not disliked by the people, ho was considered to have passed the stage of usefulness His daughter, the Princess Label la, had also al owed herself to become the mere tool of Cardinal De Costa, the Primate of Brazil, and tho p oplo therefore, feared that on tho death of Dorn Pedro tho government would bo handed over to clerical Influence. It was this belief more than anything elso which nurtured the spirit of re .olutlon. When Fonseca established a provi­ sional government many of the nobility and the Jesuits had to quit Brazil, and vai s at Kio da Janeiro and ^roughout Brazil It is repo t d that Mar.-bal da | Fonseca has been infirmed that he is saffe.log from a disease which must soon cause his death and that he has an­ nounced his wLlinguess to resign tbe reins of power. The German jxipulatlon of Rio Grando do Sul is reported to be organizing into arm< d bodies of men । on the plan of the Futch settlers of ; South Africa and lo be determined to dc­ ' fend tbe independence of their new tftata. Rio Grande do Sul is the sixth largest province In Brazil, the other five being Oara, Pernambuco, Bahia, Bio de Jan­ eiro. Mlnas-GeraoH, and San Paulo. It ha* an area of 91,335 square miles, a population of 5 34,527* and is situated at tho extreme southeastern point of Bra­ zil, bordering on tho frontiers of Uru­ guay. It has a cos t line of 400 miles, but not many ports of Importance, ow­ ing to tho difficulty of navigation in their barbora Neverthe'ess it haa con­ siderable commerce and promises to be­ come one of tho most prosperous of all the Brazilian provinces. It has valua­ ble coal mines. Important fisheries, 1 raises large herds of cattle and hand­ some crops of wheat, which Is made Into flour tn Its own mills. The Ita fan col­ onists produce 25,000 pipes of wine sonually. Wool Is grown and cloth man­ ufactured, and fine cassimcres from its merinos are sold in Rio Janeiro. Tho dispatches state that this province is largely co’onlzed by Germans, and maintains an army of 50,000 men of German origin. The statement, how­ ever, Is not altogether correct A Ger­ man colony of 126 persons was organized at ban Leopoldo by Pedro L In 1824, which has Increased since that time to over 40,000. The dispatch, therefore, must refer rather to tbe entire German population than to the number In the army, though It Is not Improbable that a liberal element of Germans or German descendants are to be found in tho ranks, and that to this extent it will be found superior to tho native forces when It is called Into action. Out of this colony forty-three others have sprung la this Rrovince, the members of which are irgely engaged in agricultural pursuits tho principal one of which is tbe culti­ vation of tobacco Their whole num­ ber, however, does not reach 50,000. It w 11 be seen from th’s general sketch that In military strength and re­ sources Rio Grando do Sul is in a posi­ tion to make ser ous trouble for the dic­ tator. If the revolution breaks out in other provinces, as now appears likely, it is not impossible that he .may meet with a fate akin to that of Balmaceda, so far at least as defeat is concerned. Tbe situation,.indeed. Is a deplorable one, but there appears to be no other so­ lution of the problem than by tbe stern and bloody arbitrament of civil war. The cause of the present trouble may best be Judged from the following language of the Primate of Brazil, so far back as February, threatening if If you want a clean and careful &havt or your hair cut in the latest style ' give us a call, we also carry a full line of Tobacco, Cigars and Smokers’ Articles.

To watch Gustave Dore designing his sketches, says a biographer, was enough to make one dizzy. His fingers fairly flew over the surface of the block, and every time he took a fresh one it seemed to be finished before one had time to realize what he had been about. This extraordinary quickness of execution was out­ stripped by that of his imagination, always miles ahead of any possible mechanical work. It seems all but incredible that any artist should have boon able to accomplish so much in so short a space of time. A convincing proof of his extra v.d I nary duplex faculty of llghuung-like conception was, that he never in those days made a sketch twice overt Some lie rarely glanced at, but threw the blocks aside as they were finished, sure that his faithful pencil had. ex­ actly reproduced bls fancies and con­ ceptions._____________________ 11 Ma> Ite Token for Grantee That you don’t pray for the people you talk about.

A Writer Ju r«re t SJr-uw Ten. Hi* B*m Xluhlua:. f* With a fly-rod, a multiplying reel, k small braided silk line, a gut leader, ind n small book, which, if of good quality, I found superior to large ones, even for large baas—I cast a crawfish under the shadow of a bush on the opposite side of the stream. When the bait had sunk a few Inches l saw the graceful form of a bass as be gently rose, took it In his-mouth, and disappeared. I did not feel him at tbe end of my line, and yet, in an­ other sense, I felt that he was there. Waiting a mouftnt for him to swallow the bait, I gave a sudden jerk and had him hooked. Thon the fight commenced, and 1 knew that he was a big fellow. For a long time I did not see him. He went low down and staid there. The bass on my hook was not alarmed as yet. That was a good bait, and he was resolved tokoepit, though it must have occurred to him that it was wonderfully strong and was mak­ ing most frantic efforts to get away from him. He was mad, he sulked. But presently he seemed to get scared. A thought suddenly struck him that he had better try to get away from that craw­ fish. There must be something dangerous back of it. He reared, he plunged. My reel hummed as he went off down stream. After a little I checked him, and ho started back, and it was well that my reel multi­ plied, or I would have had too much line on,my hands. My bass got wild and frantic. I got him close enough tn the top to see him now. He made some beautiful leaps,' three ’or four feet above the water,"but I held a taut line. After a half hour of plunging he was tired and sick. He only resisted by his weight and I was dragging him to within reach of my dtp-net. . I had gotten him in shallow water when he made his last desperate and splendid effort for his life. Sticking his head out of the water he opened his moiith to Its fullest extent, and with a savage Jerk he disgorged the whole contents of his stomach, and sent minnows, crawfish, bugs, flics—or rather their remains—flying for yards in all directions—a pint or more— the earnings of a whole morning's vigilant voracity. He bated to give them up. but he had swallowed the \ook and he knew that the trouble •■as there. He did not disengage the hook, but when he made that sturdy Jerk in the air my line snapped Just above the hook —it had become rotten in the few days since I had used it, and I had foolishly failed to. test it thoroughly. But I had not expected such fish. I felt very weak “about the gills." I sat down and rested. That fish “grew upon me." The more I medi­ tated upon him and the way he had fought me the larger he became in my eyes.. That last time he opened his Jaws‘was very vivid, it seemed* to me I could have gotten my bead into his mouth. "AtYhevery least," said I, “he was a seven-pounder." But 1 did not long sit thus. Break­ ing off the rotten end of my lineT rigged up again. After wupc little casting I hooked another bass, and my former experiences were repeated, with the exception of the last feature. I landed him and he weighed 4j pounds. During the day, varying my bait between live minnows and crawfish and easting them into promising spots Ainder the bushes,* I killed eight black tkiss ranging iu weight from 2 to 44 pounds. And the crowning and most exquisite satisfaction of the whole day’s sport was that one of the fish I killed was the same one that I had first hooked and lost. My hook with gut attached’was still sticking in his gullet. He was a buck, but only weighed 3J pounds. For weeks afterward I ruminated with delight over the events of that day. and still have an agreeable pic­ ture impressed upon my brain of the bronze and old gold sides of a magnifi­ cent bass glinting in the sun as he rose like a cork through the nile-green water under the green bushes and seized my hook—and then tho heroic struggle. . Absurd TtUoa. Often enough we bear through the news Journals of the “Sublime Porte." How many ask the meaning of the term? In ancient times, and especial­ ly in Oriental countries, it was the custom to make the gates of the cities and king's palaces places of assembly, where the. affairs of government were to be discussed. In time the term was applied to the government that exercised authority, the ruler of Turkey, for instance, being called the “Ottoman Porte," which has been gradually changed among European nations to “Sublime Porte" (Lofty Gate), the rendering of the expression by the French in tbeir language, which is the official tongue of Euro­ pean diplomacy. The “Sublime Porte" is not the official title of the Sultan. Inordi­ nate vanity has caused him to adopt it to himself, in the same spirit that prompts the monarchs of Germany, Russia, Austria, and England to call them emperors and empresses; titles which they have no more right to bear than XerxA, the ambitious Persian of antiquity, to term himself “King of kings” and finally, when his conceit hod reached the limit, “the supporter of the world." It Is an amusing experience to run down the world’s rulers and note the ridiculous titles applied to men and women, who ought to realize that thoir piled up “nick-names" really lower them in tbe estimation of In­ telligent people. Victoria of Eng­ land is the “defender of the faith," the Mikado ( Royal Gate) of Jaj»an is known at hume as “Ten-o" (Heaven’s Highest), the rater of Ram H “ttn Lord of the White Elephant,” ami the king of China is “Brother of the Sun and Moon," etc., etc. Tin-re is almost an endli** list of titles and of Individuals who have Adopted thesu; any good encyclojiedia will give them all, hut space will not permit a re­ capitulation here.

One of the most talked-of and bo* paragraphed personages of the day is Miss Menie Muriel Dowie, who ob­ tained fame a year or so ago by cross­ ing the Carpathian Mountains all alone, sleeping in the cottages of an ignorant and simple-minded but court­ eous peasantry, and now and again un­ der the stars. Miss Dowie is a granddaughter of Robert Chambers, the publisher, and a goddaughter ot Mr. James Payn. To betray the age of a fascinating young lady would be heartless, but Miss Menib Muriel was 23 when she took the *gr1m scientists of the British Association by storm. It was somewhat of a novelty for a young lady of that age to stand up ’before a large audience, and with the most winning manner, to tell of travel in obscure villages where few CURE SICK HEAD ACHE S3000s Michigan Central " Thr JTuigara FalU Raitt.” Europeans have-* ventured. And it was all done, too, in the most diffi­ dent style, with no assumption that there was anything peculiarly won­ derful about it, except her cus^omc, a picture of which is given above. The origin of the horseshoe super­ stition has never been satisfactorily explained. Among the theories offered, that contained in thr follow­ ing is among the possibilities: The horseshoe of old was bcldi to l»e of special service as a security against the attacks of evil spirits. The virtue may have been assigned, perhaps, by the rule of contraries, from it being a thing Incompatible with the cloven foot of the evil one; or from the rude resemblance which the horseshoe bears to the rays of glory, which, in ancient pictures, were made to srfrround the heads of saints and angeis: or, finally, from some notion of its purity, acquired through passing through the fire. The- latter suppo­ sition receives some countenance from the method resorted to for the cure of horses that had become vicious, or afflicted by any distemper which village farriery did not understand; such disease was Invariably attributed to witthcraft, i\nd the mode of cure seems to imply the belief that the Im­ perfect purification by fire of tho shoe which the animal wore bad afforded an inlet to malevolent Influences. Accordingly the horse was led Into the smithy, the door was closed and barred, the shoes wort taken off and placed in the fire, and the witch or warlock was speedily under the necessity of removing the spell under which tbe animal suffered. The experiment which was made some years ago, of raising cotton iu Turkestan from American seed, has proven a phenomenal success. In 18M there were 360,000 pounds of tills cotton exported, from the country. The estimate of tKe present year’s crop is put at 126,000,000 pounds. At this rate America will have to look out, as it will find a very formidable rival in tbe Asiatic country. It is stated that the Asiatic and Egyptian cotton is parked much- neater, and more tightly compressed than the American, rendering It less liable to spontaneous’or other causes of com­ bustion, and for this reason is given a lower rate of insurance inlransit.

An operative takes a handful of pencils and rolls them along the board in which the** grooves are, with the result that each groove is tilled and the board set aside.

The Sunday School convention, of the township of Castleton, convened November 11, lost., with marked in­ terest and matchless discipline, under the leadership of our noble president, Mrs. Truman. Good attendance, con­ sidering the inclemency of the weath­ er. Eight Sunday Schools were rep­ resented. Reports of delegates were in tbe advance of last year, showing an increase of zeal, vitality and piety which Is the true source, of theSunday school. Paper, by Mra. Joslin, topic, “Should Sunday School Teach•ra be Christians"; of which she most emphatically expressed with logic they should. Rev. Hamp led In dis­ cussion who adopted the plan of Chris­ tian teachers exclusive, but he said circumstances nfight prevail to use unconverted, yet such cases would be rare in Castleton as we believe her to have Christians to teach all Sunday school classes. S. J. Badcock—“All Sunday School Teachers Should be Orthodox.” Rev. McAllister sanctions tbe latter’s statement as an Important one, and farther said not only should they be orthodox, but filled with the Holy Spirit. Paper, by Mrs. Wilson, topic, Bible Class and Sunday School Work." Mrs. Parrish followed with brief remarks but of thought. Rev. McAllister said that it was of a ne­ cessity that a Bible student should study Bible history, with maps and should become acquainted with all Sunday school requisites, possessing a well developed mind that he may bet­ ter know the country In which the Sunday school pupil lives. AFTERNOON SESSION. Song service, led by the president. Prof. Taylor favored the convention with a very appropriate song. Com­ mittee on resolutions was called to re­ port; S. J. Badcock. chairman of the committee, presented a resolution on temperance: it was read, adopted and opened for discussion. Rev. McAllis­ ter rose with prohibition enthusiasm, said, “The saloon is a hindering cause to the progress of Sunday school work as it takes the young.” J. R. Bar­ num said, lam In heart's sympathy with the temoerance resolution. A country that 1 gave my right hand to be severed to free my country from slavery so in this conflict, battling against the power of darkness the mm fiend, I consecrate my all against it and as long as God give me a voice I will use it In defense of my boys, who never knew the terrors of slavery but who might know greater terrors produced by Intemperance. Paper, by Mrs. Parrish, subject, “Infant Class Work," which was highly ap predated, as It was full of sympathy and divine truth. Rev. McAllister was called upon to make an address which he produced In a genial man­ ner: Mrs. Chairman, I appreciate this coming together through the love of God. I am glad this spirit of love has been distilled into my heart to work. Work In the Sunday school Is a Holy one. Some say ministars do not work; I do work and my perspi­ ration is as dear to me as any man s. Now to the subject, Prov. 22: 6. The Almighty gives inspiration to the teacher and to the child. Train the child. The word train is emphatic. The training of the child determines its course In high or low life. The important part of Divine work is to train the child to go to heaven. Fathers and mothers are you doing this? How can this be done where there is do family altar? Give the child a chance. Train up a child, thht Is, take an interest in him, show him Divine beauties in a Saviour’s lo»e, Oh, that word, train up, up, go ■xhigher until he is enabled to breathe heaven’s atmosphere. Christ has the . reins-in his hands to guide the child . home to heaven. Christ puts a high esteem upon children “For of such Is the kingdom of heaven.” Society would be a blank without them. Home may be said not to be a perfect home without them. Home will not be a happy one with them until tbe fruits of the spirit of Christ Is em­ bodied in them through the atoning blood of Christ Save the children. Secretary. , l for lb* Michigan crop report —----- ....---------------------------November, returns ,have been received rccei filo correspondents, rorrewnfOtdentM. representing renrotent from 610 504 townships. Four hundred ana nineteen of 1btwe reports are from 323 townships in the southern four Hers of counties, and 105 reports are from 97 townships In the central counties. The area seeded to wheat this fall is slightly in excess of the area seeded In the fall of 1890. Compared with that year the exact figures are 101 per cent In the southern countlee, 100 per cent In the central counties, and 102 per cent in the northern counties, tbe average for the State being 101. The area harvested this year, In­ cluding spring wheat, was 1,572,817 acres. In condition the growing wheat averages 88 per cent in the southern counties and 91 per cent in lhe Blate, comparison being with vi­ tality and growth of average years. One year ago the corresponding fig­ ures were J&J and 105, the condition at that time being better than on the same date for a number of years. The total number of bushels of wheat reported marketed in August, September and October is 5,371,987 which is 176,677 bushels less than re­ ported marketed In the same months last year. Tbe corn crop is a full average. The estimate for the southern coun­ ties is 57, for the central 59, for the northern 50, and for tbe State 56 bush­ els of ears. This is au average of about 28 bushels of shelled corn per acre. The area of clover seed harvested this year is about four-fifths lhat of 1890. The average yield per acre is 1.45 bushels. The potato crop in the southern and northern counties is estimated at 96 per cent, in the central counties at 100 per cent, and In the Upper Peninsula at 80 per cent of a full average.

One of ■ the greatest -evils in our country is the liquor saloon. In this opinion almost all persons agree, no matter what political party or other organization they. may belong to. The saloon has been swept away from large portions Of our country by the operation of local option laws. By act 207 session laws of 1889 an oppor­ tunity Is given to each county in Michigan to decide for itself whether the saloon shall exist within Its bor­ ders. A movement has been begun to bring this matter to a vote In Barry county. When the question was voted upon before, the people decided against the saloon by a large major­ ity. Over one hundred and fifty voters of Jiarry county -of all political par­ ties, many of them among our most {irominent citizens, have signed a call or a mass county, convention to be held at the court house in Hastings Saturday, Nov. 28th, at one o’clock p. m. sharp. The purpose of this con Vention is to inaugurate measures to banish the saloon from this county. The call will be sent over tbe county In a circular and presented to tbe peo­ ple in the papers next week. It is proposed that this campaign shall be conducted on a strictly non-partisan basis. XXX THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION. In accordance with an established and approved custom, and as Govenor of the state of Michigan, I hereby des­ ignate Thursday, the 26th day of Nov­ ember next, to be a day of Thanksgiv­ ing. Providence has greatly favored us In the year that is. now closing. Fruitful harvests have rewarded the labors of our people and tbe blessings of health and peace have followed us as a nation. No calamity has befallen the people; the laws have been obeyed, and good order has prevailed. Recall­ ing these reasons for happiness and content, it is especially appropriate that the people lay aside all secular employment for that day, and meet­ ing in their respective places of wor­ ship and, In such ways as may seem to them most fitting, manifest their gratitude for the niany benefits the year has yielded. Nur should we be unmindful of our obligation to those who suffer from poverty and misfor­ tune; but, by ministration to their wants, bring gladness to their hearts and Joy to their homes. Given at the Executive Office, In Lansing, this 16th day of November, In the year of our Lord eighteen hundred and ninety-one, and the Independence Gf the United States of America the one hundred and sixteenth.

When the doctors told him that he had but a few more hours—per­ haps only a few more minutes—of life, he desired that Miss Menton might be summoned to his bedside. ‘ As she approached tears fell from hts eyes, and In a broken voice he said: “My poor child, can yoii forgive the murderer of your father?

Slace, A smllo of unutterable thanksgiving m s ■II probability, of a Itald bead, baa proved that baldneax is a product and sign of culture. If baldness is a sign of culture, something devoutly to Be wished, we shall perform a public service in showing how this condition can be quickly reached. Non-reientific people will possibly study our advice in order to do the opposite, and thus keep their hair as long as possible. “Wo lose, In the course of time,” said Voltaire, ‘•our teeth, our hair,’ and our Ideas." That*may be true as far as the teeth and ideas are con­ cerned, but we cannot always depend upon losing our hair. Persons who long for the proofs of culture must resort at once to meth­ ods of art. The first good rule is to keep the head warm. In summer, if you wish to become bald, do not wear a straw hat. On the contrary, let your headgear.be a felt or cloth hat, a derby or u< stovepipe. In winter always wear a fur cap. While in tbe bouse, at all times of tbe year, do not fail to wear a fez or an oil cap. Women whose light hats do not wear off the hair rapidly enough may accomplish that end by using heavy switches of false hair. A roll of fale hair will work even more rapidly than a fur cap, as the hairs will fall out by the hundreds when the roll is heavy enough. The beloved night­ cap, so dear to our grandmothers, is to be highly recommended also. The helmet of the officer and policeman is also a splendid Invention. What is the effect of these head coverings? They make the head perspire. Moist* uro Is the deadly enemy of hair. On tbe temples and the back of the head near the neck, usually untouched by the hats and caps,it is seldom that oue sees baldness. A bald ring often marks the position of the hat or cap. Our young dandies who curry their heads, every morning with two brushes, and In the course of the day comb their hair whenever they see a mirror, are on the right path to bald­ ness. That is also true of women who allow their hair to be combed by unpracticed servants. The savant Gazenave found the heaviest and most beautiful hair on the heads which had never been touched by scissors. People who wish to become bald should have; their hair cut as often as possible. It is encouraging to notice that this practice Is Increasing. ChiMren j have their haircut often in the ab­ surd belief that the hair will becoine thicker. Again, go as often as pos­ sible to the barber's. In the brushes and combs of the barber shop, used indiscriminately upon the heads of all kinds of customers, micro-organ­ isms destructive to the hair flourish in great quantities. The investigations of Lossar, the dermatologist have proved beyond a doubt that these parasites spread dis­ eases. The dandruff from the heads of persons whose hair is disappearing would produce bald spots on the backs of rabbits or mice. As long as barbers arc not compelled to disinfect their brushes and combs there will be victims ready to purchase, hair re­ generators. Finally, excesses are de­ structive to the hair. Ca*sar and Louis XIV. both owed their famous bald pates to immoral Hying.—Dr. Alex. Winckler, in Illustrite WelL Electricity in the many forms in and Joy illuminated tho countenance of which It hasrbeen made useful to man the dying man. “God bless you This is Indeed a hlis become so familiar to most per­ Thanksgiving Day,” bo said, turning to sons in recent years that it is rather a his wife, who a so stood beside him.’ matter for surprise that in somejorlts Then, with one last, convulsive effort hq Joined tho hands of the two women he most interesting manifestations it re­ loved best In all the world, and the sun­ mains to-day as mysterious an agent The tremendous light. which Just then streamed In as it ever was. through the casement, fe.i upon the face power of a stroke of lightning is be­ of tbo dead. yond all possibility of imitation by When Colonel Warrosby’s will was artificial means, and yet that power is read it wm found to contain a bequest seldom exercised twice in precisely of *30,000 to Rena N onton, accom­ Sometimes the panied by a direct on that she., should the same manner. always make her home withJifs wife and lightning appears to exert Its full might like an angry giant, and its chlldred as-a beloved daughter. blow then resembles a shot from a APPEARANCES DECEITFUL. hundred-ton gun—nothing can with­ stand it, and it rends, tears and scat­ ters broadcast whatever object it en­ counters. As an instance of Its terrfle ca­ pacity for destruction iwssessed by a bolt of lightning was the instant de­ molition in England, a year or so ago, of a great oak tree which for genera­ tions had been the pride of a neightorhood. Occasionally all this fearful power is expended upon an insignificant ob­ ject, as happened near West Louis­ ville, in Kentucky, last June, when a turkey-buzzard, sailing high In the ai¥ at the beginning 61 a thunder­ storm, was suddenly annihilated in tbe sight of several spectators by a bolt of lightning that darted from a cloud. The same mysterious force mani­ fests the variety of its powers by such performances as photographing—for a sort of photographing it really is— tbe forms and colors of neighboring objects upon the surface of whatever thing has felt the fury of its assault. Near the town of Warren, in Ohio, last July, a young man who had taken refuge under a tree during a thunder­ storm was killed by lightning, and upon his breast and other parts of his body appeared wonderfully distinct images of the leaver ami branches of the tree. We often hear accounts of the strange behavior of what is called ball lightning; and still another form in which the electricity of the atmo»phere occasionally manifests itself, is the so-called St. Elmo's tire which illuminates the yards of a ship as with ghostly lanterns. The Eurojiean scien­ tific papers lave recently contained an account of a very singular appear­ ance of this kind of electric light which was witnessed near the. town of Gottacbee. Two gent^men walking along a country rnfcd during a snow-storm; saw what seemed to be a glituFMer coining out of tbe new-fallen enow.1 It was presently diwoycred that tbfll light enveloped the iron cap on ths end of the cane carried by one of the pedestrians. When he raised the caoe In the air little sparks wrmed to dance forth from it. There arc many of these electrical exhibitions furnished by nature which occur in -the presence of persons who do not take the trouble to observe them carefully, ami after­ ward to report what they have seen. Some of the things that now appear mysterious would cease to be so If more i«ople would learn to use their eyes and their brains at the same time. . Sutherland Falls, at the head of Arthur Valley, New Zealand, would be the highest waterfall in the world If the water descended in a contin­ uous stream. From a height of 1,904 feet the water drops a distance of. 815 feet into an enormous caldron. Thence It sl^pots over the edge of tba caldron and takes another drop of 75! feet. It Is again broken by a lodge of rock and takes a final plunge of 338 feet. The noise of the water as it falls from ledge to ledge is deafen­ ing and the entire surroundings are of the most majestic grandeur.

France owns 47,590 stationary en­ gines, 7.000 locomotives and 1,850 steamboat*engines. Germany has 10,000 locomotives of all kinds, 59,000 stationary engines and boilers and 1.700 ship and steamboat engines. Austria has 12,000 stationary engines and 2.800 locomotives. The forca equivalent to the working power steam’* engines represent is: Ln the'United States, 7,500,000-hoise power; in Eng­ land, 7,000,000-ljon«‘ power; in France,: 3,000.000-horae power; in Austria,' 1,500,000-horse power, and in Ger­ many, 4,500,000-horse power. In these figures the motive power of lo­ comotive engines is not included,1 whose number in all the world at tho beginning of 1890 was 105,000,-repre­ senting- a total of beftfocn 5,000,000 and 7,000,000 horse power, about 6,-' 000,000-hors<* ]>ower. which, added to' the other powers enumerated above, Rives a total of 49,000,000-horse power fur the world. A steam “horse-jwwer" is equal to three actual horse power/ and a living horse’s strength is equaf to that of seven mon. Therefore th* steam engines in the world represent, approximately, the working power off 1,000,000,000 men. or more than double the working population of the world, the total population of which is usually estimated.at 1,455,923,000 inhabitants. Steam has accordingly enabled man- tq treble his working piwer, making it possible for him to economize his physical strength while attending to his intellectual develop­ ment.—Age of Steel. * Llltl* Taper Made or Kaff*. The old copy-book line—“Paper is made of rags"—has become obsolete, in fact, if not in use. Formerly alt paper was made out of rags, worn-out clothing and the like, and when such material as straw was first introduced there was a general outcry. Now, however, comparatively little paper is made out of rags exclusively, a fact which is fortunate, as the quantity of paper now used is so great that there would not be enough worn out cloth­ ing or shoddy to supply the demand. The strangeness of it is that while jKHK-r is being used for dozens of pur­ poses formerly mono]K)lized by wood or even a harder material, such as car wheels, boxes, barrels, tubs, pails and so forth, wood is rapidly driving other ingredioarts to the wall in the manu­ facture of nearly all the cheaper grades of paper.

By rcaaon of the anxiety cf the farmers to convert their crops Into cash at tho earliest possible moment tbe carrying capacity of each company is far Ao limited to meet the 'clamorous demand.

These are the principal rea ons why the peop'e of tho Northwest are clamor­ ing for cart Their <• evators—orllmlted capacity—are filled.

They have no place to store It To give relief the railway companies are doing all that Is possible. Every railway through the great Northwestern wheat bell has made spe­ cial preparation for hauling to market tho phenomenal wheal crop. More fr. ight cars were purchtsjd than tn any other year In the railroad history of this section, in addition the cars were en­ larged and 700 bushels of wheal has be­ come a standard car insual of 500 as heretofore, but all preparations are in­ adequate. and every road reports a car famins. Too crop is moving eveu more rapidly than was expo ted and cars can­ not be supplied tb meet the demand. The Railway Commission has received and investigate I a score of complaints and in every case it has been shown that it was sheer inability on the part ot the com­ panies to furnish sufficient cars. Tbe roads hat ing the longest hauls are suf­ fering tho most re erely, with the excep­ tion of lhe Northern lines, from whose terrltbry little complaint com-s. The greatest apprehension Is now felt for tho coal supply. Through that great sec­ tion at Western cottatcy supplied with coal via the lakes and Duluth tho de­ mand for cars is now the greatest for the crop-', and tho pre ent cold >nap has so stimulated tho demand for coal as to exclt^he fear that the rar famine will bo intensified later on.

A little affair in which Incledon, the once famous singer, was involved, shows that there is more than one way of settling what la called an “af­ fair of honor." Incledon had never fought a duel, and he never intended to fight one, but he was an unsophisticated man, and .said and did a great many queer things out of sheer simplicity. On one occasion some remarks of his gave offense to a man with whom the singer happened to fall into com­ pany, and the offended gentleman re­ solved to have “satisfaction" for his wrongs. * Accordingly he hunted up Incledon the next afternoon, finding him at dinner in a noted hotel. "Mr. Incledon," said the waiter, “a gentleman wishes to see you, sir." “Show him up, then," said the singer. “Sir," said the visitor, entering the room in a towering passion, "you have been making free with my name in a very improper manner, and I've come to demand satisfaction." After some parleying, Incledon rose, and striking a graceful attitude in the center of the room began to sing “Black-eyed Susan,” In his most de­ lightful style. When he had finished the song, he said, coolly: ' “There, sir, that has given com­ plete satisfaction to several tho^isand people, and If you want anything more, I’ve only to say you’re the most unreasonable fellow I ever met!"

He was a Brahmin, and he lived sev­ eral centuries before Christ Writing in some early dialect of Sanscrit, he deliberately, and with the most hor­ rible heathen depravity, stole some of the best sayings of Herrick, Shakspeare, Butler, Cibber, and others. He was bold enough to appropriate such modern sayings as "What Is bred in tbe bone will comeoutof the flesh,*’ “Possession is the strongest tenure of the law," and so on. Hesiod, who wrote in the seventh century before Christ, was another of those antique plagiarists. Theognls, .Eschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Plautus, Ter­ ence, and many others, were great suppliers of modern familiar quota­ tions.

For a MICE, ' CLEAI1 SHAVE TERRIBLE CONFLAGRATION AT ST. LOUIS. Go to the Two million dollars went np In smoke at HL Louis, and three of tbe largest business bouses in lhe Idly and a half dozen smaller buildings are a mass of ruins. The fire started In the millinery store of Penny A Gentles, corner of 1 rankltn avenue and Broadway. A second and third alarm were sonnded within fifteen minutes, and the almost complete force ot tho tire department responded. The flames spread at a rap d rats the material which they frd upon being of a highly Inflammab « character. A strong west wind was blowing at tbe time, which made the work of the tiremen perilous and for a time fruitless. Within half an hour the large dry goods store of ronnenfe d\ which adjoined ■ Penny A Gentles', was afire, and tbe flames were working their house ob the corner of Broadway and Morgan street Four firemen were caught tn the Famous Building and were overcome by smoko. They were rescued by their companions. The weather was bitterly cold ano tbe firemen, bos*, wagon and al matter not In the Imme­ diate vicinity of the flames was covered with Ice Within an hoar the entire block on lhe west side of Broadway, between Frank­ lin avenue and Morgan street, was a mass of flames, which were being fanned by a strong wind, and, being carried across the street, threatened destruction to the Immense dry-goods house of D. Crawford A Co , and the furniture store of Koppleman A-JCo. The firemen poured their streams of water into the fire blindly, as the smoke was so deus ■ and the odor of burning ribbons, feathers, cloth and shoes so strong that they could not remain on the windwar I side. The fire raged for two hours, and It was only by the almost superhuman work of the firemen that a tremendous conflagra­ tion was averted. During one of the many collapses ot 'burning floors in tbe different buildings two firemen named Lynch and Simon were caught by tbe falling of loose bricks and timbers. Both men were badly hurt, and were carrieJ to the hos­ pital In an ambulance. Tho watchman at Sonnenfelds' establishment is miss­ ing. and It Is feared that be may bo in the ruins Across from Penny <fc Gentles* on Franklin avenue were tbe establish­ ments of Grierson A Co , hatters, Ed F.

The wind had died aw*y considerably and tho firemen were able to do batt'e with greater success The whole block on tbe east side of Broad.Morgan street. Including tbe establish- aged by fire and smoko It took hard and active work to prevent the flames from going down Morgan street to Fourth, as all tho buildings wore old and inflammable. When control was gained, the block of buildings, which before was filled with holiday goods, was a mass of charred timber, and the main part of the walla had fallen. The stores of Sonoenfeld*, Penny A Gentles and the Famous Shoe House (the largest shoe house In tho West) were wiped out by flames. On Franklin avenue, opposite Penny/A Gen­ tiles’ establishment, was a block of retail stores. These were seriously damaged. The occupants were (). W. Heyer, dry goods; Grierson A Co.,batters; Ed F. Bohl, hatter, P. H. Coulkamp Jt Co, clothiers; SL Louis Tailoring Company: fc. Beemer A Co., clothing; t barlesT. Lange, cloth­ ing; L. Volklng, boots and shoes; Goo. R.

THE MAN OF IDEAS. In this modern age of snap and go, the man who achieves the most Is he who is fruitful ot ideas that are capa­ ble of practical utilization. Ideas are worth money. There are instances on record where the author of a single Men, by means of its adaptability to certain phases of modern progress, won for himself fame and competency. Nor are these" in­ stances rare br Isolated. The colums of the newspapers teem with them day after day. The nineteenth century has become so thoroughly an era of ideas that the man whose brain Is not fertile in sug­ gestions that have practical value must Eventually retire to the rear, making room for the more modern Individual, who, we say is “full of ideas.” In any position requiring executive ability, calling into play powers of ingenuity the man of ideas will al­ ways out-distarice the individual who reflects only the originality of other Intellects. This is the kind of intellect that is necessary to grapple with situations that are complex In their nature . and progressive in their tendencies The realization of this important truth has enabled many of the world’s most prominent and successful citizens to attain their present wealth and emihence. Su\-h men as theft's appreciate the man of ideas, because they are them­ selves men of Ideas. In the selection a employees to intrust with responsle duties that require administrative ability, they haye sought fnr men who were quick to “catch on,” In the par­ loner of tbe street—men who could take In tbe situation at a glance and. with the unimpassloned dignity and decision that bespeak the real leader, determine aimart. instantly the ne­ cessities of tbe moment. Business men, the world over, haye a warm place In their hearts for the man of Ideas. There are places to-day in the great establishments that We always open to “original people.” In this age of inventive gente, the man uf novel and original conceptions, having tbe executive force to put hU ideas into action, Is the man who will reach the goal of success for which so large a portion of humanity is striv­ ing. To him ideas constitute the heaviest timber* in the bridge over which he passed to flnai.ctal triumphs and subfttancial prosperity. Of all the concomitants of success In business, none influences the flual out­ come more vitally than originality in advertising. The time-worn rust have to be departed from to command the respect and attention of the fublic. Comnion-placeisms are not In harmony with the iconoclastic tendencies of the Ss in which we live. Therefore tbe vertiser who is a man of ideas is he who wins tbe richest rewards from hi* business efforts. —Edward A. Olo^om. I OUH8 OPBBAT1D BT CAB. REALISM. Officers and soldiers at the Fort Sheridan range. Chicago, recently wit­ nessed the testing of an automatic re­ lating rifle that bids fair to revolu­ tionize both naval and land warfare. The gun is’the invention of Dr. H. A. Pitcher, of Nlellsvlllc, Wls., and pat­ ents have been secured in this country and In all tbe leading countries In Europe. The rifle becomes automat­ ic by the usllizatlon of tbe gas pro­ duced by the combustion of the nrst canridge fired. The gas escapes into a close chamber and acts un a piston that Is set against a spiral spring, the recoil of which propels the .piston back against a rod that sets the mechanism of the gun in motion, removes the empty cartridge, replaces it with a loaded one and cocks the gun. This Is done with such rapidity tbat’if one presses against the trigger the gun will discharge in two seconds the nine cart ridges that are required to till its magazine.

WEALTH Is something which most people seek, and which but few Are indifferent to; no matter in what form it presents itself. The word “pecuniary," which is often used in speaking of a man’s riches, comes from the Latin word jmjcus, which means cattle, and .shows hat formerly a man’s wealth was reckoned by the cattle he possessed. Abraham is said to have been "very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.” But no matter in what a man’s riches may consist, it is all vanity and vex­ ation of spirit, unless in connection therewith he has health. Emerson fully understood this when he said “the first wealth is health,” and we have no doubt if he had known the virtues of S. S.

A letter from Prof. P. G. Holden, of the Agricultural College, to the editor of The News, informs us that the Nash­ ville institute will be held on Monday, January 25th, commencing in the afternoon. Prof. R. C. Kedzie, Pres­ ident of tbe Agricultural College, has signified his intention of being present to talk to our agriculturists on the subject of “Sugar Beets in Michigan,” and several other prominent speakers will be present to participate in tbe institute. A preliminary meeting will be held at The News office on Monday after­ noon next, Dec. "th, at 1.30 p. m. local time, to complete arrangements. A good attendance of tbe good, live farmers of the vicinity is requested. These Institutes are proving of great practical benefit to the farmers of Michigan, and we hope on January 25th to see so many of our active, pro­ gressive farmers in Nashville that they cannot all get inside of the opera bouse.

What a grand, phantasmagoria, a pot-pourri of misplaced affections aftid mixed-up matrimonial alliances this place is, wriu-s a correspondent from Sioux Falls, S. D. While throughout the length and breadth of the con­ tinent it has become know-n as the spot par excellence for tbe securing of divorces, and many queer ideas may have gained possession of the people’s minds as to what it is like, none of them, queer though they may be, can do justice to the situation. Here December wed to May, old men's dis­ appointed darlings and young men’s slaves, young men with elderly affini­ ties, unrsqulted love, budding hope and duad passions, all figure together in one fantastic show, which must be seen to be properly appreciated. Sioux Falls has a population of 15,­ 000 and the occupations of her people are varied, but the chief scene of in­ dustry is the divorce court. While this Is in session—which is nearly all the time—a steady stream of human­ ity passes in one door, each one with an application for a divorce in hand, and out the other with the granted divorce. The majority of the appli­ cants are women, bet there arc some men. The women are all young— many less than 25 and few over 30— and the greater number of them art; •pretty. Some of them are very beau­ tiful. . The most, prominent of the “colonlate" is Mrs. James G. Blaine, Jr. Her household consists, besides her­ self, of her beautiful little boy, •Jamie," his nurse, and the house ser­ vants. She has a handsome little cottage situated in the midst of a pretty lawn, dotted and bordered with flower beds, and is surrounded on two aides by * a low-roofed, widespread piazza, which gives quite an alx of comfort and beauty to the house. In OF THE WEEK. elry this Idolized morsel of humanity has enough to warrant a private. box in the family safe. and writer, is also here. Mr. Austin claims to i.» the patriarch of the. col­ ony, and has been here long enough, to have obtained bis decree of divorce a month ago. He, however, is so well leased with this part of the country that he intends, after a trip abroad; making Sioux Falls his home. No odc comes here without bearing more or less about Mrs. Hubbard, a young woman from Red Bank, New Jersey. Mrs. Hubbard has set the gossips by the ears. Her style of beauty is something on the gypey order, and her style in dross is much in the same line. She is possessed of a good voice, and sang-in one of the churches here until the edified couldn’t hold the youths and graybeards who flocked there to bear her, and then t he good people of the congregation con­ cluded that that was making salvation too free, and they dispensed with her services. Mrs. Hubbard sues for di­ vorce on the ground of desertion. She married a man much older than herself—she looks to be about 20—hut found the old-man’s-darling plan of life Very tedious. Her husband bo- THE CHINESE RIOTS. Considerable interest has been cen­ tered in the treaty ports in the in­ terior of China, because of the horri­ ble outraged there committed against foreigners. Christian missionaries especially have been subjected to the most cruel indignities and merchants from European countries residing in the treaty ports have not escaped the wrath of the Chinese fanatics.

That she will do just what she says no one doubta, for Miss Connors come of fighting stock. An ancestor fell in the war of the revolution; her grand­ father's bones bleach on the arid plains of Mexico, while her o#n fath­ er sleeps his last long sleep on a Southern battlefield. Through her personal efforts a new flag and flagstaff now takes the place of the one that was cut down, and Miss Conners sits inside the Jittle scbodlhouse instructing classes and keeping guaql over “Old Glory” with a first-class repeating rifle, which stands in a little niche just back of her desk.

Atjhe recent meeting of the learned British ? ssociation there was a dis­ cussion of the difference in the wages of men and wompn doing the same work. Tbe conclusion seemed to be that there is no great difference,.after all, and therefore not much to dis­ cuss. The same matter is debated now and then in this country. All right­ thinking people will agree tfiat a woman is entitled to the pay whigH'a man would receive for the same work, equally weM done. Nevertheless, this does not m^an that Alice Jones, who is a clerk*in Rupert & Co.’8 dry goods store, and who stands 'at. the counter beside James Stark, shou.d have the same weekly wages, as he. It is the uni­ versal custom' to put more work and heavier upon the men, and usually the greater responsibility is laid on thqm. Moreover, it is a matter of common expedience that men are less frequent­ ly compelled by iOncas to be absent from their work, and their power of endurance is, in general, greater. Th*l» is not all, for while it takes one man to marry onc woman, the man usually continues at his employ­ ment after marriage, while the woman does not. It follows that a man, be­ ing more likely to stay and to learn the ins and outs ef trade, is worth more to an employer tlhin a woman who may'marry and leave him at any time. It follows also that in any employ­ ment yhero men and women are at work together, the average experience of the men is the greater. A sham fight among the Zulus is: an impressive spectacle. The dusky warriors are fine, muscular fellows, athletic and highly trained. The rank and file, uutrammeled by orna­ ments and dress, move about with grace and freedom. The officer?, chiefs and head men wear coronets of ostrich feathers, which rustle freely with every movement of the body; circling their brows are rolls of tiger skin from which descends fringes of coarse hair, from the neck ‘ and shoulders to the knees their bod­ ies are covered with the tails of mon­ keys and tigers and stripes of various hides strung together in girdles; their waists are girt about with tufts of lion's mane and cow hair, says the Detroit Free Press. Forming into line, their variegated shields are so close ami regular that they appear in­ terlocked, .while above they bristle rows of gleaming assegai heads. The foe is imaginary, a,s even among their own tribes they are roused to such a pitch of excitement, that had they any opponents, though only in mimic warfare, they would be so far carried away by their feelings that at close quarters bloodshed would inevitably result. At the word of command they advance in precise order, first slowly, then at a quick march, then double, and with a shout of “Cbiela!” (imaginary enemies) the battle be­ comes fast and furious. Brandishing their assegais, stabbing and lunging with strength and dexterity, each stroke accompanied by a fierce grunt of satisfaction, stamping, gesticulat­ ing, and gnashing their teeth, they work themselves into a mad frenzy, In which their features are distorted, and their eyes glare with a fierce lust of blood. Suddenly the command is given to retire, and. as victors shouting tri­ umph, they march from the field. Then appears upon the scene a horde of wild-looking creatures, running and leaping from place to place, screaming demoniacally, and franti­ cally twating the earth with thick, heavy clubs. These are the women and they are engaged in the horrible atrocity of killing the wounded. Af­ ter a sham fight the night is spent in feasting and revelrv. JOHN W. KEELEY.

The young­ ster was the only son of an old cobbler who had mended shoes and Ixiots all hls life and had saved enough to buy a modest home and to lay up a small balance In the bank. The old man died awhile ago, leaving everything to his overgrown, gawky, shiftless son. | “The Jattcr never did a day's work in hls life, and as soon as he found himself the possessor of the little shoe shop he at once commenced cast­ ing about for a purchaser. He soon converted, hls property into cash. Then he. went down to a suburb of Boston to talk'with the manager of a large factory that turns out about half of the shoestrings made in this country. The youngster contracted for the entire output of that shoe­ string factory for one year! Then he went to another large manufactory at Newark, N. J., and secured a similar contract “These two institutions are tho only shoestring .factories In AmericaThe shoestring business for the ensu­ ing year had been cornered, excepting the goods that were already in tho hands of wholesale shoe men in New York, Boston and Philadelphia. Tho young speculator invested his cash in buying up this stock, and within a few weeks had everything in his own hands. This was a corner which tho trade had not foreseen. Shoe dealers throughout the country who had ordered their usual stock of goods were horror stricken to learn that there was a shortage in shoestrings. Well, now, shoestrings are very small things, but they are quite necessary to the shoe business. Within three months the Andover boy sold his con­ tracts with the manufacturing con­ cerns at a net profit of 855,000, and if i he had had nerve enough to continue . the tight he undoubtedly would have made double that amount.”—Chicago Mall. _____________________ The Pic >)> Chin*.

The finest blue diamond known is the Hope, In private hands in England, weighing 44} carats. A Brazilian diamond of 76} carats, found a few years ago. Is of superior quality to the Koh-i-noor.

The per capita consumption of malt liquors in this country in 1883 was 12.­ 48 gallons, against 5.30In 1870: of dis­ tilled liquors, 1.23, against 2.07 (2} in 1840). and of wines, .59, against .32.

The Psro Marquette train Is dne in Toledo at 4:53, and the Lake Shor.e fol­ lows at 4:5A From Air Lino Junction the trains use tee same track. The Lake,Shore wm seven minutes late and the Tero Marquette train nine minutes lata. Tho Lake Shore train pulled down i from the junction aluai of tho Mar­ quette, though there was but little room between them. About forty rods from tho union depot is a tunnel fifty feet long The Lake Shore had gone nearly through this with its seven heavy vestibuled parlor care, and the day coach on the rear, when a freight ahead made It pull up. The brakoman ran back to give the signal to tho Pore Mar­ quette engineer, but it'was too late. The trains wo o too close. The engineer and fireman of tbe on­ coming train laid down in tbolr cab and crasbpd through tho dimly lighted tun­ nel into tbo rear ot the Boston and Chi­ cago f pedal. The day coach was split in twain: the engine plowed through until .tho rear of tho car made a cover for tho engine clear up to tho cab The steam escaping In volumes hid tho wreck from the view of the .blc crowd which had run out of the stores, sa oons ana houses on the high bank along which ran the street above Miss Dolly Fisher, the daughter of Health Officer Fisher, maddened by tbe pain of thn svald.'ng steam, leaped from the window and wm cut and slightly bruised. Help came framed I ally, and the wound­ ed were drawn ouL One man, Warren L.

A baby was scalded t) death and taken out of tl!b smMhed car a cooked and blistered no* of flesh, almost beyond recognition as a human form. A ghastly hand was found after thn wreck had been deired away and tho wrecked car taken.off, but no body had been found without a hand, and another search commenced to find the body to which the hand belong­ ed, without avail. There was no fire, and few wore Injured except by escap­ ing steam. Mrs. McCoIgn occupied a teat near the resnof tho coaoh and a babe was tod­ dling in the aisle when tbo accident oc­ curred. according to one of the eye-wit­ nesses. Taking place a* it did in tho city, an Immense crowd assembled at tho scene of tho wreck. In four hours all the debris had been cleared away, and the trains began to run as usual. No ono wa’i hurt on the Marquette train. An Investigation will bo mode at once as to the cau-e of the wreck, and tho Lake Shore official* will see If It is possi­ ble to make the 1 ere Marquette people pay for tho damage incurred. Tho engineer of tbe Marquette train was a new man on the ran. When found tbe lever wm almost perpendicular and not reversed Tho brakoman and condretor of the Lake Shore had a narrow escape. They had gene to tho rear to hang oat tho red lights, when they saw the headlight of the rear train right upon them. It was a big jump into the ditch, but they took It and escaped with a s Ight shaking up. D'Wis, tbe Flint & Pere Marquette en­ gineer. will say but little concerning the wreck. The yard orders to engineers are that they are to keep their engines always under control, able to stop Immodiately.

Instead of the familiar talk about the advance ot the cavnlry. covering the march of the main column, and the story of the maneuvers of scouts and tbe headlong charging to and.fro of aides-de-camp with messages, this is something like what he will be called upon to read: "Yreterday at dawn a company of riflemen, mounted on bicycles, sud­ denly appeared at the entrance of Gansemlorf. This was the first inti­ mation that the enemy was so near at band. The last balloon had gone up toward midnight, availing itself of the exceptionally bright moon­ light; from it had been seen nothing to indicate an advance. These bi­ cyclers must have come dashing along the highway anon*-after the balloon descended. When the .riflemen saw that there waa a !arge\army near they departed as swiftly as they had come, and the uir was soon thick with balloons, from which our sharp­ shooters attempted to pick off the saucy wheelmen. But an adverse current prevented the punishment of the enemy as he deserved. "In the afternoon the chief <jf staff was very busy with the long-distance telephone and communicated with the commanders of seven army corps, which-are now on their march to this neighborhood, where an important Kttle must soon be foughL In less than five minutes a radius of terri­ tory many hundreds of miles square was completely covered with these telephonic messages, and half an hour after the general order waa given the chief of staff knew that the head of each column was on Uie march, and had an important conversation with each general commanding a corps. “During the evening the body of one of the enemy's riflemen, together with his bicycle, was brought into the village. On his person was found a paper containing a reference to t^ quadricyclar scouting expedition which was to take place on a branch line of rail not far from our village next morning. These quadricycles, adapted to the railroad, are now in general use in both armies. They look not unlike the old-fashioned hand-car, denuded of its framework of wood, and- are managed by two stout' soldiers, seated side _by side. The soldiers have carbines slung over their shoulders, and tarry pistols in holsters. "The hind wheels of these railway quadricycles are made much larger than the forward wheels, and the treadles are so arranged as to give immense speed. Great services have been performed on both sides by these scouts, skimming swiftly as swallows along the humming rails, ami fight­ ing fiercely whenever interrupted in their journey of inspection." Or, after a little, this may be read: “ We are greatly interested in the manner of operations of the new bicycle ambulance corps, which we saw at work for the first time. Even while the battle was raging those in­ trepid servants of mercy were thread­ ing their way, on their rapidly revolv­ ing wheels, among the wounded and dying, and their skill and discretion be In active and constant use In the next carujialgos. Of what. vast, serv­ ice the long-distance telephone would have been in the campaigns around Paris In 1870, or in the marching and countermarching before Plevna in 1877. And the time when paintings which depict the wild charges ot wheelmen over Mie smokeless battle­ fields of the future will be as plirtun«qiie and exciting for us when seen in historical, paintings as the fearless rides of horsemen up to the mouths of cannon are today. ■ Not much can be Mid as yet of the terrible guns which are to discharge hundreds of shots per. minute, and, which will- mow down thousands where now only hundreds are slain. But when we read of the exploits of Hotchkiss and the Nonlenfeldt, we shall feel as if we wore reading fairy] talcs. Jt will scarcely seem credible] to us that the march of invention has I been so mighty in a quarter of a century. . In business matters Mr. Scott, the Pennuylvnnia millionaire, who died recently, was quick in hls conclusions, sound in judgment, inexhaustible in resources. The public remembers yet the sale by Wm. H. Vanderbilt ot 820,000,000 worth of stock in the New York Central at 120. That sale was made by Wm. L. Scott. Vanderbilt, harassed and worried in tlie management of the property, vexed by public criticism, and uncer­ tain about hls health, expressed, In the presence of Scott, a wish to be rid of the property. * “You arc not in earnest?'* said Scott “I was .never more in-earnest in my life." was the reply. “Why not sell it then?" the Penn­ sylvanian asked. "Sell it!” exclaimed Vanderbilt,' “where can I find a purchaser, for 820.000.000 of the stock?" •I can J! nd such a purchaser," Kild Scott, "at a fair commission.7 "Ik» it,” was the response, “and I will give you 8500.000.” In a few days Scott had organized -a syndicate among the bankers of New York to purchase the Vander­ bilt stock at 120, and without any difficulty the transaction’ was con­ cluded. Then came Mr. Scott’s demand for hls commission of 8500,000. Vander­ bilt demurred; 8500,000 was a big sum of money for such work. Mr. Scott Insisted that it was a bargain made openly and seriously, and car­ ried to a conclusion. Still Vander­ bilt objected that it was too big a commission. "What is it worth?" asked Mr. Scott. "Oh," said Mr. Vanderbilt, “8200,­ 000." “Very well, then, let me have the 8200,000," said the gentleman from Pennsylvania, and the matter was settled. Had Mr. Scott insisted there is little doubt the 8500,000 would have been forthcoming. As it was, the commissions was as easily earned as any money Mr. Scott ever made. “Come out and sec my money­ makers," said a lady living in the country to a friend from the city who was visiting her. “These," she con­ tinued, as they came to a large gnd well-appointed hen-house, “arc my ‘church-hens;’ all that I make out of them above expenses is devoted to re­ ligious objects. "The geese you see down there on the pond are my ‘poor and needy geese.’ They cost little or nothing, and the profits are applied to the re­ lief of the poor and needy.

Consequent ly we have a great many comforts and luxuries that we cauldn’t otherwise have; and I thor­ oughly enjoy the work, too." Do not this lady’s methods suggest a host of little things which other ladies might turn to use as money­ makers. and find health and pleasure in so doing?

The germ is in the grass, and in the course of matication becomes im­ bedded In the root of the tooth.

The United States is indebted to England for its language, its laws, many of its institutions, and, unfor­ tunately, for the so-called English sparrow. This feathered pirate has engaged the attention of the law­ makers of Illinois, and at the last session of the Legislature that bird was put in the same category with mad dogs, snakes, and other disagree­ able things. The Agricultural De­ partment of the Federal Government has had a dozen of scientific men In­ vestigating the sparrow and his hab­ its for several years past. The result of their investigations has been given to an Expectant world in the shape of a bulky volume of 400 pages, adorned with pictures of the import­ ed pest in various attitudes, and with maps showing how much of the coun­ try' he has already taken possession of. It may be said of the English sparrow as was said by the schoolboy who was told to define the manners and customs of the Fiji Islanders. THE EX-EMPEROR DIES DENLY IN PARIS.

Wolcutt, who is spending tbe winter mak­ ing balloon ascensions along the Miss­ issippi river will undoubtedly be of Interest to the many friends of Mr. Pllbeam: The letter was written from New Madrid Ma, on the 30th ulL “The day was cold and a strong wind prevailed and I at one time thought it would be impossible to make the ascension; but thousands ot people had come In from the surround­ ing country anc| I did not like to disap­ point them, so at 2:90 we commenced the difficult process of Inflation. The wind blew harder and harder and harder and - we were fully two hours inflating, but finally all was in readiness. . The wind at this time was blowing a gale, making it exceedingly dangerous for even an experiencet hand to make the ascension, and I hesitated about allowing Jim, (who was to ride the trip) to go; but Jim had made up his mind and would not listen to my going in hls stead. So I yielded and Jim mounted the trapeze like an old time professional. The word was given and away want Mr. Pllbeam on hls first trip in a balloon. The balloon vibrated in a most alarm­ ing manner, but Jim hung on like a church debt and at tbe first shot from a revolver I could by the aid of a pow­ erful glass see him arranging the par­ achute preparatory - to making the leap; at the second shot a few minutes later the balloon was fully 5,000 feet high and speeding along like a race horse. Jim did not hesitate a second but taking a firm hold of the little iron ring, jumped. The parachute fell fully 500 feet then slowly opened and Mr. Pllbeam. came down about 1} mile from the place of starting. A nicer and more successful parachute leap was never witnessed anywhere and Mr. Pllbeam enjoys tbe distinc­ tion of being the first person to make a parachute leap In this part of the country.

From what ho save and heard, tbe scout reasoned that Danton had met a new section of Dospard'* outlaw band near tbe emigrant train, aud they wgro quarters at Lone Canyon. The plight wa* not a pleasant one to tbo ranter. Ho discerned great peril and trouble abould Despard carry Inez to hi* mountain home.

The scout was about to shift his palncd,cramped position, and even med­ itated taking advantage of the gather­ ing dusk to escape from the wagon, when he paused and listened. Two men were passing the wagon and going toward the saloon. They were conversing, aud bo heard one of them hl* own, a pair ot mournful eyes met his glance. “White Fawn!” ejaculated Darrel, In bewilderment. It was Indeed tho Indian maiden. “Yes, it is White Fawn." “And ‘here? You rescued me. Ah,, how can I thank you?? “Eagle Eye forgets." “Forgets what?" “That ho- saved tho life of White Fawn." “But bow camo you hero?" “Because here was the Black Crow.” “Despard!" exclaimed Darrel. “Yes, so tbe paleface call* him.” “He I* your enemy?"

"To avenge Wbite'Fawn’s wrongs." ■You would do that?" “Yes, for ho ha* persecuted tbo friends of Eagle Eye.” “Come!" The Indian maiden led Darrel to a spot near tho river where th'cy wojld not be discovered should tho savages re­ turn. Then she told her simple, fateful story. It seemed that a month previous she had been wedded at Hie camp of her father to the Jaguar, a chief of the peace­ ful Nez Perce* . • . The latter was to convey her to tho reservation of his tribe, and left the wig­ wam of Shadow Snake loaded down with gold and jewel*. Dyke Despard and his men were to convoy them to thclrdestlnatlon.

Darrel askel tho Indian girl why she did not go to her father with her story. “Not till White Fawn Is certain the Jaguar Is dead, and tfntll she ha* killed Black Crow,” she replied, ominously.

The Senate broke the record In tho way of measures Introduced in a single day, there having been 812 bill* and eight joint reso­ lutions presented. this is about 100 more than ever before introduced In one day. grass, while others arc upon entirely now subject* Among these is a postal savings bill; one to establish a branch mint at Omaha; another to cwtabliah a gun factory on the Pacific coast; and one to establish a department of public health—tbe latter by Senator Sherman. A genera tion ago A ruerie* consisted ' of the settled North*.astern and Sautbeaattern States and of more or '.esa wild continent behind them. Year by year, however, the popula­ tion has been spreading went, and ?very fresh census has pushed inland tbe mean Hne of population—the line •>n cither side of which the popula­ tion ia equal. The significance of this zradual withdrawal of the mean pop­ ulation line from coast must not be miased. The fact means that the Anglo-Saxon* in the United States are becoming wbat they have never been before in their history, an inland people. In a very little time, tlie vast majority of Americans will not only never have seen the sea. but will never have liecn within a thousand inilea of it. The destiny of the Amer­ ican people Is to bee: me as much a people of great inland plains as the Russians, and this fact will be made dear to the world when travelers leave the ocean at New York and after traveling inland over a thousand miles, find thenteeltes in a city as bfg as Vienna, and ten times as rich and energetic. The existence of a great city so far removed from the sea is probably unique in the world's history. Delhi in the days of Ita greatest prosperity had no doubt a very litfge population, but-unless Hoecow can lie-’called great we can recall no great city of undent or modern times situated in the heart of a continent It may be said that Chicago is an exception only in name, and that it could never have achieved tbe position it has achieved but for the fact that it is situated on the shores of a great double-armed inland sea. No doubt the great lakes have helped Chicago, and no doubt also the fact that they acquire from the ’ populations which surround them all the seafaring qual­ ities of the English race, will prevent its inhabitants from becoming Uto inlandish in their habits. Chicago, however, is not enough in the middle of the continent to hold -forever the position of the typical American city. As the center of population shifts westward, her relative position will decline, and she will- ultimately have to give way to some younger»rival to the west and south, possessed of a geographical position mure suited to the commercial capital of a nation of some two hundred millions of inland people.

There are women who like to have men fall in love with them Just for the fun of laughing at the silly fools. But every woman of this kino finally gets laughed at as a silly fool herself. Let a woman look long enough, and she will fiif.1 a man who Is awfully sweet and careless and unprincipled. One out of every crowd of Sx>ys becomes rich or famous. If you think it will be you in your crowd, remember that you must start early. One out of every crowd of boys grows up to be a vagabond and loafer. If you con­ tinue howling when you are* called in the morning, and arc lazy and shift­ less, are you not afraid that one in your crowd will be you? When two women from the same town happen to meet in a strange place they rush Into each other’s arms, and kiss each other, though probably In their own home they were not on speaking terms. Why do they doit? Ifl it a rule among the sex that a bowing friend at home should be­ come a kissing friend abroad? A woman uses about a paper of pins a week, but still she is always losing something. After a number of them have called at a house, the hostess will find handkerchiefs, hair pins, gloves, and almost everything else, lying on the floor. A woman can’t ride a block in the street car without leaving her parasol or a bundle in the seat when she gets up to go out. They are so careless in this particular that they are in need of reform. And as the men have to pay for everything that is lost, they should inaugurate the crusade, and be the reformers. The men should organize a Men’s Christian Union for the reformation of women. MICHIGAN CENTRAL EXCURSIONS. NUMBER 16 No man can* blame the world for forgetting him when he dies: he for­ get*. it first. A woman’s grief is never very sin­ cere if she remembers to try and look pretty when she cries. The prorxW thing to nay when a Nashville man goes away from town to seek his sortune is, “Well, good­ bye. How soon shall we look for you back?" The hideous, uncomfortable looking bolster pillows with embroidered mot­ toes like “Sweet Dreams, My Own,” “Good Night," “Baby,” etc. arc com­ ing into style again. We met a woman to-day on her way to a dentist to hare a tooth pulled, and she was laughing. Had It been a mao, he would have asked the sym­ pathy of everyone he met. So much attention and praise is given thc-worthless man when be dies, that it is very discouraging to the hard working fellow who is doing his best. A good woman may think she Is helping the Lord by being friendly with a mean man, but it Is usually the case that she is making the deyil laugh. Men complain that they don’t get their dues. Instead of complaining, they should rejoice. If the majority of men got their dues, they would be whipped out bt town. There is only one reason why a woman should be afraid of a man. There are a hundred why a man should be afraid of a woman, and as many more why a woman should fear an­ other woman. When a man has it “in” for another man, he does not lay for him with a knife or pistol; he takes a reporter off behind the barn and says: “I want you to roast that fellow, but do not tell that I told yoii.” When a Nashville man returns, after an unsuccessful attempt to make a fortune in another town, we are re­ minded of a roosrer coming home from another barnyard with the stuffing whipped out of him. » Every one has a secret hope, though one was never realized. It is sent to a man as a sort of will o’ the wisp to keep him forever in pursuit of some­ thing. that he may forget how long and tiresome his Journey Is. Sick people are allowed too much company. An ’Assyria woman died not long ago, and the cause of her death was simply that her friends came to see her in such numbers, talked so much! and kept her so tired out that she didn't have a chance to get well., There is such a thing as being too popular. There is a kind of man who is very polite to ybur face, but who talks about you after you arc gone. There is another kind of man who grumbles • about you to your face, and lets you alone when you are al«ent. The last sort of a man will last longer, with all his faults, than the other man, with alibis politeness. , Gratifying To AIL The high position attained and the I universal acceptance and approval of the pleasant liquid fruit remedy Syrup of Figs, as the most excellent laxative know, illustrate the value of the qual­ ities on Which its success is based and are abundantly gratifying to the Cali­ fornia Fig.Syrup Company.

A Study In Black. “Pop?" A lUtle-boy stood beside a gam­ bling table, long ago, In an Idaho mining town, and addressed this trembling word to oue of the players. The father was a rough man with great sinewy hafids, a grizzled face and thin, merciless lips. But his eyes—how vicious and utterly lost the light that flashed from their reddish balls! a8ay, pop, when you goln’ home?” Again the timid Toice came to the rough' man, and he laid down his cards deliberately and turned around. The hoy knew the light that blazed from those eyes only too well, and he dre^v back and huddled himself to­ gether in a piteous but mute appeal for mercy. “What’s that to you, you young whelp? Git out o’ here, now, an’ don’t ye waste a mlnit or I’ll be the death o’ you. Are you goin’?" Slowly, sadly the little fellow turned and walked to the saloon door. Then he paused to look back and found those vicious red eyes still fixed upon him, and the voice came to his ears: "What you stoppin’fur? Git!” And gulping down a sob that was rising in his throat, the boy passed through the door. For another hour the players silent­ ly played their cards, and che rough man said, as he took the pack in hi* bands: “How many cards, Pete? But before Pete could reply there came the quivering words: “Pop, hain’t you mos’ done?” The rough man cried out an oath and turned. He did not say a word, but he drew back his great sinewy (1st to strike the shivering child. “Hold up, Ike Baker!" cried Pete, leaning across the table and catching the raised arm, “don’t you hit ’ini." There was devilishness in the red eyes, and had he struck, it would have been a blow to kill. For a moment not a sound was heard, and then came the nose of a scuffle from an adjoining table. “Ole Copper is bavin’ it out with Big Jerry," volunteered a bystander. A moment later a pistol shot was heard—one shot was all—a shot that laid the little boy with trembling voice low on the saloon floor. A higher power had made of Big Jerry an instrument In consummating a merciful deed. “Good God, Ike," cried Pete, “Big Jerry has killed yer boy!" Not the quiver of a muscle—not a shadow cf expression crossed tbe rough man’s stolid face. He cast one glance of his vicious red eyes toward the little lifeless heap on the floor, then, drawing a revolver, he turned it upon Big Jerry and shot him dead where he was standing. “Blood for blood," he muttered, catching up the pack once more with his siqewy hands. "How many cards did you say, Pete?"—Free Press. the measurement on the circumfer­ ence of the oval will not all be tbe same..

Astronomers have measured the earth's meridian and found it to be 131,259,287 English feet. Dividing this by three hundred and sixty, we get 364,009.13 feet ns the length of a mean degree of the meridian. Onesixtieth of this, then, is a knbt; and thus, by division, a knot Is found to be 6076.818 feet, or 2025.6 yards, or 1 mile 265.6 yards. It will now be convenient to nutice that a knot being. 6076.818 feet, and a mile being 5,280 feet, the propor­ tion of a knot to a mile is very nearly as 6,070 Is to 5,280; or> dividing by four, a* 1,519 is to 1,320, which is very nearly as 15 to 13. - So that, for ordinary purposes, knots may be con­ verted into tniles by taking thirteen knot* as equal to fifteen miles, and vice versa.

Recent and most careful investigations relating to this star show some astonishing results. That great sun is Dow known to be Tears to reach us, or 1,061,000,000,000,­ 000 miles »way. This star is 550,000 times larger than oar sun. If Arcs torus were a holkiw sphere, it would hold 680.000,000,000 balls a« largo as the earth we inhabit The star Is dow coming nearly directly toward us at the rate of 19 miles a second, but goee athwart our position about 850 miles a second, so that in a’ few millions of years it will wholly disappear from our range of vision. Such distance* and such mag­ nitudes are wholly beyond the concep­ tion of finite minds, and are absolutely appalling.
