ROYAL BAKING POWDER
Strongest, Purest, Most Economical
Certain baking powder makers are publishing falsified extracts from the
Government reports, with pretended analyses and certificates, wherein an
attempt is made to compare their baking powders with the “Royal,” or
making bogus tests from house to house, their obvious purpose being to
counteract the recent exposures of the inferiority of their own goods arising
from thair impurity, low strength, and lack of keeping qualities as shown
by the Government chemists and others.
As to whether any of these baking powders arc
equal to the “Royal,” the official tests clearly deter­
mine. When samples of various baking powders were
purchased from the grocers, and analyzed by the United
States Government Chemists and the Chemists of State
and City Boards of Health, the reports revealed the fact
that the “Royal” contained from 28 per cent to ,60 per
cent, more leavening strength than any other cream of
tartar baking powder, and also that it was more perfectly
made, of purer ingredients, and altogether wholesome.
As these powders are sold to consumers at the same price, by the use
of the Royal Baking Powder there is an average saving of over one third,
besides tjie advantage of assured purity and wholesomeness of food, and of
bread, biscuit, and cake made perfectly light, sweet, and palatable—advan­
tages not to be had in the use of the low-grade, cheaply made baking pow­
ders that contain lime, alum, and other impurities.

two youngest; Preston B., Jr, and Car­

Senator Plumb was born in Delaware
County, October 12, 1837, so that ho was
in his fifty-fourth year st tbo tlmoof his
death. He was not a college graduate,
but left tho common tchools for tho
printer's case, and in pursuance of bls
vocation as a Journeyman ‘printer, in
185d, in tho b oody day* of the hlatory
of tbc newly organ'zed territory of
Kansas, walked Into that territory, and
with the vigor and energy which has
brought bls life to an end the young man
plunged at once Into tho thick of the
political *trlfe which then wa* waging
over the slavery question. Ho went to
tlie front and soon be. ame a member
of tbe Leavenworth
constitutional
convent-on of 1859. He was admitted to
the bar in 1801, when the place of bls
adoption'became a 8 txto of tho Union;
served In tho Legislature In 1862, was
Chairman of the .Judiciary Committee
and subsequent y Reporter of the Su­
preme Court When the war broke out
he entered the army as second lieuten­
ant in tho Eleventh Kamas Infantry
and K-rved successively as captan,
major, lieutenant colonel of the regi­
ment and was commissioned a colonel of
the regiment in r.ugusL 18 '8. After the
war Mr. Plumb returned to Kansas, was
elected a member of th? Kansas House
of Representatves, and In 1876 was
chosen United Slates Senator to succeed
James M. Harvey, Republican- He took
his scat in 1877 and has represented bls
State as a Senator ever since that time.
His term of office would have expired
March 3, 181A
It is settled that Gov. Humphrey of
Kansas will appoint a suceesser to
Plumb. A prominent lawyer of Topeka
says that a year elapses before the next
Legislature is to fiiect and so an extra
session must be called at once. Other
authorities say, however, that the Gov*

effective until another Legislature meets

Committees of the Whig and FreeSoil parties were dissolved and a com­

and there, says the Chicago Tribune,
the Republican party was christened,
and these men were its godfathers.
The thing was done at last and the
name Republican, suggested by Mr.
Bovay, was adopted.- It was a wise
suggestion. The Democrats have al­
ways gained much strength by their
name. It means something definite
and plain to the common minds.
“Federalist" had long been odious,
aud to Americans generally “Whig"
was meaningless. “Republican” had
had a definite and uniform meaning.
Mr. Bovay was an active man. He
was bom in Jefferson County, N. Y.,

Norwich (Vt.) university In 1841,
and located in Ripon in 1850. He
was teacher, lawyer and finally sol­

has not yet discovered how to guide
the “critter," but promises a complete
solution of that question in a few
days. The illustration will show Just
what the machine will look like. It
is suggested that persons wanting
preliminary practice for this wheel
take it by rolling down hill in a bar­
rel or tying themselves to a mill­
wheel. The Inventor claims that he
can make eighty* three m.l 'S an hour
with it, and that it costs no more
than an ordinary bicycle. If his in­
vention is a success than the railroads
of the world will probably quit-ebusi­
ness, and the inventor may have to
pay taxes on billions of invested dead
railroad capital in the United States.

They were evidently thorough-

were innocent
.
They confessed that they liad in­
tended to rob the bank; that they had
not only made all their plans, but that
they had lain In wait for three nights
to kill the night-watchman on his
round. They declared, however, that
they had then abandoned the whole en­
terprise, but the wife of one of them,
who was in tbe secret, had told their
plans to her brother. This man, os
was afterward proved, carried out tho
scheme which they had abandoned, and'
then managed to throw suspicion upon
them.
.
"Of course when they told me this
story," says the narrator, “my first
thought was that they were deceiving
me; but in the end, though the tale did
not sound very probable, I somehow
came to believe it.
“The thing which puzzled me most
waa that they gave no adequate reason
why they had not carried out their mur­
derous plans on thc three nights when
they were lying in wait
“I pressed them upon this point, tell­
ing them that they might as well trust
me, for that if I found at any point of
the case that they had deceived me, I
would unhesitatingly throw up the de­
fense, no matter whaj, thc result might

them thoroughly, and each tried to

was prepared to hear something un­
speakably wicked; for I thought that
anything which mode such scamps
ashamed, innst be dreadful indeed.
"It took them half ita hour to tell me;
and then, between astonishment and
emotion, I felt thc tears spring into my
eyes. For three nights they had lain
in'wait to kill the watchman, who
lived in thc top of tha building; bat it
chanced, every time, that ho was carry­
ing his little baby up and down in his
arms all through thc middle of the
night, and they could aot make up their
minds to touch him.
"I had no doubt of the truth of their
story. Tbeir shame for their soft­
heartedness was unmistakable, and I
learned afterward that on those par­
ticular nights tbe watchman's wife was
ill. and he really was carrying the baby
about in his arms.”

There is rarely a circumstance or
character invented by tho imagination
that docs not find its parallel in real
life- A year or more ago a writer,
whose name is familiar to Companion
readers, described in a story thc adven­
tures and vicissitudes of an erring lad
who ran away from home to follow
the sea. The talc was pure fiction, and
the author invented for his young sailor
a name unlike any be had ever heard.
Soon after the story was published,
its author received a pathetic letter
from a sorrowing mother, saying that
the sailor-boy of thc story was her only
son, and begging for his address.
"Tell him." she wrote, "if he will
only come home I will forget and for­
give all thc past
I am alone in tho
world, and if my dear son will but re­
turn to me 1 shall be happy again."
It was hard to write to this poor
mother that the sailor-boy of the ttory,

Royal Baking Powder is Best,
“ The Royal Baking Powder is absolutely pure,
for I have so found it in many tests made both for
that company and the United States Government.
“I will go fltill further and state that because of the facilities that company
have for obtaining perfectly pure cream of tartar, and for other reasons dependent
upon the proper proportions of the same, and the method of its preparation,

A -well-known medical Journal is
recommending thc kola nut as a
substitute for tea and coffee. The
nut, it is said, contains little tannin
and not much more caffeine. It is
claimed that it will Boon take tbe
-place of lea and coffee entirely.
A botanist, who has made a special
study of the nut and its properties,
said to a Cincinnati Timea-Star re­
porter: “It is a mistake to say that
tbe nut will take the place of tea and
coffee. It has an astringent taste
that is unpleasant, and I do not be­
lieve that it will ever be used exten­
sively, or at $11, in civilized countries.
Tbe kola nut is a native of the coasts
of Africa, but has been Introduced
into and thrives well In the West In­
dies and Brazil. It grows on a tree
forty feet high, which produces pale
yellow flowers spotted with purple.
Thc leaves of the tree are six or eight
inches long, and are pointed at both
ends. The fruit consists of live long,
slender pods radiat ing from a common
center. One of these when broken
open is found to contain several nuts
somewhat similar to hazelnuts and of
about the same size*. The nuts are
solid, being slightly softer toward the
center than on the outside.
“The natives of the countries where
the nuts grow use them for various
purpose*. They pass for money In
Africa. They are also used as a sym­
bol of friendship and hate, the light
colored ones signifying the former,
and the dark the latter. They are
supposed to aid digestion, and it is
the practice to chew a small bit be­
fore eating a meal. They allay thirst,
and it a small piece be chewed and
held in the mouth while drinking, the
most bitter and stagnant water can
be taken, and will taste sweet and
agreeable. I doubt if this quality of
rendering stagnant water pure is pos­
sible by thc nuts. I rather think
that the astringent taste of the nut
paralyzes tbe gustatory nerves mo­
mentarily^ and for that reason the
water Is not tasted. Hunger they are
also supposed to allay, but they do no
more than paralyze the nerves. They
have a stimulating effect, and when
going on long marches the natives
chew bits of tho nuts continually,
and with about thc same effect as If
intoxicating liquor had been used,
though without the same bad results.
Powdered kola nut is sprinkled in
cuts and wounds and has a healing
effect
“A chemical analysis of the nuts
shows them to contain 20 parts of
caffeine and but a fraction of a part
of tannin. No, it will never be used
in the place of tea and coffee. Its
taste and chemical properties are
against it"

They saved the wheat crop in Ohio,

wasps also belong to this order, and
do much good; indeed, we think wo
may say that the wasps are only our
friends. They are dreaded needlessly,
for, unmolested, they rarely, If ever,
sting. We have seen wasps carry off
slugs and tent caterpillars in great
numbers. Every farmer should be­

The master or trainer must not to as­

ness, bat with tho reverse. Do not,
therefore, punhh him. but let him learn
almost unconsciously that certain actions
and certain pleasures are connected.
He should s on learn his name, should
always come when called, but not be
summoned too often, especially if play­
ing. It is we 1 to carry a bit of biscuit,
cheWe, eta, to reward him for coming

suffice.
The trainer should never undertake
what he Is not reasonably sure of accom­
plishing: and tbe first alm sboulda’ ways
be to secure thc dog’s attend n an l in­

is invaluable, while a disobedient, head­
strong one will m-»st assuredly ruin the

specific instructions not to disturb tbe
soil at the base of the cliff which
towered for 200 feet above them, over­
hanging the track and forming a por­
tion of the face of the mountain.
These instructions were not given t'ecause a landslide was thought prob­
able, but to save unnecessary work,
and, A? was afterward proven, they
were implicitly obeyed. ’
The sixty-two men in thc construc­
tion gang were busily at work, when
the foreman, happening to glance up­
ward. noticed two huge bowlders upon
thc face of the bluff toppling. In
another instant thc side of-thc moun­
tain began to move, and, shouting to
his men to run for tbeir lives, he took
to flight.
The laborers needed no second warn­
ing, but unfortunately about twenty
of the men were in the direct line of
the slide, and they hardly had time to
throw down their tools before they
were overwhelmed with a conglom­
erate mass of railroad ties,' mud and
stones, and either hurle 1 to one side
or pinioned to the earth and buried
beneath the debris, which covered
them to the depth of from six to fif­
teen feet, and borne to the tx&gt;’;tom of
the river, where many of thc bodies
still lie.
One man was thrown entirely across
the stream by thc force of the slide
and found alive but unconscious in
the underbrush a few feet from the
bank. Six others who were on the
edge of tbe slide were taken out
seriously wounded and two bodies re­
covered by the surviving workmen,
who returned and made a heroic effort
to find the bodies of the dead.
How many perished in the slide will
never be known, some workmen plac­

PLENTY OF ROOM FOR ALL.

There can be n &gt; argument success­
fully advanced against thc ability of
the Twin Cities to properly entertain'
and.care for a convention whose num­
bers might far exceed any political
gathering yet held by the Republican
National Convention.
Minneapolis alone has hotel accom­
modations for 6,800 guests and St.
Paul, which is within a twenty min­

utes’ ride from thc convention hall,
can entertain 5,100, making a total,
hotel capacity for 12,000 people.
What other city In the United States
can make a better showing in the
hotel line, except possibly Chicago
and New York? The fact that St.
Paul is ten miles from Minneapolis,
union depot to union depot, cuts no
figure. That distance is rendered in­
significant when compared to ths
magnificent distances in Chicago and
New" York City. Men think nothing
of riding twenty miles on thc elevated
roads of New York, and ten to fifteen
miles on the cable and steaui lines of
Chicago.
There are seventy trains of steam
cars running between Minneapolis
and St. Paul daily, and more than
fifty trains over thc electric lines
during thc same time. The time of
the steam trains is only twenty min­
utes, and of the electric only thirty
minutes. This is short time com­
pared with other cities within their
own limits. Resides these lines bo
tween these cities, there are nearly
200 miles of electric and* cable Hues
running to all parts of the two cities,
and taking in the.splendid park sys­
tem of Minneapolis. These various
lines of transporation handle more
than 100,000 people per diem as their
regular traffic. The addition of 50,­
000 or 100,000 more would hardly be
noticed.

The enormous power nt a stream of
water forced from a hydraulic nozzle,
under from 200 to 300 feet or more of
pressure, as sometimes used in hy.draulic joining in this State, is some­
thing almost beyond Itelief.
The
quantity of -water passing through
these nozzles in a single day of min­
ing is,Immense.
A stream of 400
feet vertical pressure delivers a blow
of upward of 500,000 pounds—equiv­
alent to alxait 1,000 horse power.
Louis Glass, who for sixteen years
was superintendent of one of tbe large
mines In this State, says that he has
seen an eight-inch stream, under 311
feet of vertical pressure, move In a
sluggish way a two-ton bowlder at a
distance of twenty feet from thc noz­
zle, and that the same stream, strik­
ing a rock of 500 pounds, would throw
it as a man would throw a twenty­
pound weight.
"No man that ever
lived," adds Mr. Glass, “could strike
a bar through one of these streams
within twenty feet of discharge, and
a human being struck by Such a
stream would" be pounded Into a
shapeless mass."
Mr. Augustus J.
Bowie, of this city, the author of a
standard book on hydraulic mining,
says it would l»e absolutely impossi­
ble to cut such a stream with an ax
or to make an impression on it with
any other instrument.
Mr Bowie
adds that, although tjever to his
knowledge has a man been struck by
a stream as it comes from the pipe,
several accidents have occurred where
miners were killed by very much
smaller streams at a distance of 150
to 200 feet from the nozzle. Professor
Christy says he has often trier! to
drive a crowbar into such a stream,
and it felt as solid as a bar of iron,
and, although he could feel the
point of thc crowbar enter tbe water
for perhaps baif and inch, th? bar was
thrown forward with such force that
it was almost impossible to retain It In
the grasp. An ax swung by the most
powerful man alive could not pene­
trate tbe stream; yet it might be cut
by the finger of a child, If. thc child
were seated on a railway train moving
parallel with the stream In the same
direction and with the same velocity.
That velocity would be considerably
more than a mile a minute. The
statements presented In the above
summary will not astonish engineer­
ing experts; the average citizen,
however, is accustomed to regard
water as the least destructive liquid
that can be put in motion, and he is
familiar with no stranger manifesta­
tion of its power than the velvety
touch of a stream from the city­
faucet. It might occur to a military
man that such a powerful ligent
might lx; made a most terrible mili­
tary agent for offense or defense, at
short range, if it could only lie
brought to bear, as indeed It might
be, by a powerful steam engine in a
beleaguered fort or on board a battle­
ship with an enemy close alongside.—

How to Get tfce Most Good Out ot Kooks.
You should treat a Ixxjk as you
would a person with whom you are
talking for information; that is, ques­
tion it, read it over and turn back
and try to get nt the meaning; if thc
lx»ok itself does foot answer the ques­
tions you raise, go to some other book,
ask a dictionary or encyclopedia for
an explanation.
And if the book
treated in this way doesnot teach you
anything or does not Inspire you, it is
of no more service to you than the
conversation of a dull, ignorant per­
son. 1 just used the word “inspire."
You do not read all looks for facts or
for information merely, but to Im in­
spired, to have your thoughts lifted
up to noble Ideas, to have your sym­
pathies touched, your ambition awak­
ened to do some worthy or great
thing, to become a man or a woman
of character and consideration in thc
world. You read the story of a fine
action or a heroic character—the
death of Socrates, or the voyage of
Columbus, or the sacrifice of Nathan
Hale, or such a poem as “The Lady of
the Lake"—not for information only,
but to create in you a higher Ideal In
life, and to give you sympathy with
your fellows and with noble purposes.
You cannot begin too young to have
these ideals and these purposes, and
therefore the best literature In all
world is the best for you to begin
with. And you will find it the most
interesting.—Charles Dudley Warner,
in St. Nicholas.

th* Krebs Mine.

Tbe awful mine disaster at Krebs, 1. T..
becomes more terrible as later reports come
in- It is naw believed that at least two
hundred and twenty-five miners lost their
lives by the'oxploslon. That number are
at present unaccounted for. Already ten
Ixxllcs bnvo been recovered. A.t the time
of the explosion nearly 350 men were In tbs
shaft. Most of them had stopped work for'
tbe day and were waiting their turn to ride
up in tbo cage. They had congregated
near the bottom of the shaft and that local­
ity Is completely Jammed with dead bodies.
Il la said that eighty-five men succeeded in
reaching tbe open air by mean* of an
abandoned tunnel. About forty miners sere
rescued by lowering of buckets by tbo
rescuing party outaido tbo shaft. Of the
eighty-flve men who reached safety by
means of the old tunnel over half of them
received Injuries more or les* severe, and
many of them are so badly injured by
shock and bruises that it 1* feared they will
not recover. It 1* believed that the explo­
sion was caused by firing a shot when the
mine was partially Oiled with gas. Ot the
223 nilMing miners It Is believed that near­
ly 100. and perhaps more, are already dead.
Owing to. the great tzcltement at the scene
of tbo disaster and tbo distance from any
telegraph office it is Impossible to get a list
of tbe dead and Injured.

thought If they met the desperadoes they
would be In a position to do battle success­
fully. The courier left tho camp at mid­

four men of the band had been either killed
or mortally wounded during the running
fight of the previous afternoon. The situa­
tion here and at Springfield 1* still very

TERRIBLE LOSS OF LIFE BY THE
.
M'ALESTER EXPLOSION.

Additional particulars of the terrible
mine disaster near McAlester, I. T.,
only too fully confirm tho first reports
sent out. A careful estimate by As­
sistant Manager Krebs places tho dead
at 130 and the injured at 200. Of these
at least 100 will die* as they are burned
so that the flesh Is dropping from their
bones.
At 5 o'clock in tbe afternoon there
were, as near as can l&gt;e learned, about
400 men In the mine, says the latest re­
port. They were the day alii ft and were
Just prc|&gt;aring to asc- nd when the ex­
plosion took place. Six men who had
already been bolated In the cage bnd
just stepped on the platform at the side
of tbe shaft. The cage was blown
through the roof of the tower and fifty
feet Into the air. Flames shut up the
shaft and above the ground fully 100
feet, which were follows*! by a terrific
report which was hcArd for miles around
and shook all the neighboring country
so violently that people in the surround­
ing mining towns four and five miles
distant thought an earthquake was
shaking the ground.
The men already above ground were
prostrated by the force of the explosion,
but did not receive serious injuries. The
scenes about the mouth of the shaft im­
mediately following were fearful In tho
extreme.
Weeping women flocked to
tbe scene from the village at the sound
of the explosion, many of them hyster­
ical to the point of insanity. The air­
shaft, the only way of escape for the
entombed miners, was the point where
tho relatives of tho miners congregated.
Many of the miners were able to make
their way out of the tomb, and they
were welcomed at the surface by their
waiting friends.
The Injured were
quickly taken to places of shelter and
were tenderly cared for. Ono man with
a broken leg climbed all the distance of
400 feet through the air-shaft and fell
unconscious as ho reached the surface.
Others who were terribly burned labored
painfully up the ladder, strips of flesh
falling from their hands and arms as
they grasped the ladder's rounds.
The news of tire disaster spread quick­
ly through the villages surrounding

A traveling man who was also tbe head of
a prosperous firm promised bls newly ‘.wedded
wife that he would gl-e her a dollar every time
be kissed her and tn that way she could eave
plenty of money. -TtilngTwent on In thia way
for several years and as be made plenty of
money he faithfully kept bis promise. Finally
levcrsei came and the once prosperous travel­
ing man found be was virtually a pauper. He
went home to bis wife and told her al). 8be,
however, did not seem to feel worried and he
was somewhat surprised when she asked him to
take a ride with her that afternoon, but he ac­
cepted Thsr Invitation. Passing a block on a
we!) known street, ahc said, “Thai's mine.”
Soon she came to a handsome flat and Mid,
“That’s mine." Weil, she showed him several
places with the same remark until he began to
be suspicious awl Inquired, “How In the deuce
did you accumulate so much wealth I" “Do
you remember tbe contract'Y»u made when we
were first married!” she said. “Yes,” herepiled, “I do." “Well I invested it and it has
made u* rich." The traveling man hung bls
bead and said nothing. Thia was kept up for
thirty minute* until hl* wife became alarnjgd
and she aaked, “What In the world i* tbe
uuttcr, aud wL-l are you thinking about!**
He said, “I was Ihinklng of how rich we would
be If I had done all tuy kissing at home."

Wh« U tbe '-IbUilug- oe • doll.t nr
other coin? Probablv out urn- prtMRi
in 500 could answer bbls simple ques­
tion correctly. There is a popular Nllef that th’-c.irrugatiun-i on the. rim
of a dollar are the utiUimt. but this is
nut so. Mr. C. M.,Gorham, coiner al
the San Franeisco’hranch mint, wtw
recently ask«1 to explain what the
"milling" on a coin really was. Mr.
Gorham went into the counting-room
and picked- up a "blank," a round
niece of plaln silver cut out of a silver
bar. It had gone through one ma­
chine, which had slight!v rounded the
edges. Tbe blank was dnirped in a
milling machine, and when it came
out a second or two later the rims were
raised a little above the level of the
sides. The verb "raiMing" i« the rais­
ing of the rim of a blank piece of
money, nnd the nqun "milling" is a
plain raised rim without reference to
any corrugations anywhere. The pur­
pose of the milling is to protect the
surface from wear. Tbe milled blank
was dropped into a Htamping machine
from which it, dropped:! perfeet dollar.
WhHeinthe machine the piece drop­
ped in a carrugatey collar; under great
pressure the rim was forced Into the
corrugations and t»erame similarly
corrugated. Thebarallcl notched or
corrugations, gene rally called milling,
constitute the "reeding." The term
is adopted from Its architectural use
toexrpcss a small convex moulding,
especially when such mouldings are
multiplied parallel to each other.—

There is used in the manufacture of the Royal Baking
Powder more than half of all the cream of tartar consumed
in the United States for ail purposes. This is required
and must be chemically pure, and chemically .pure cream
of tartar could not be obtained in the markets of this coun­
try or Europe, which necessitated the MtiMing of special
works, and the cmpluymcnt of special processes.

All other baking powders, when analyzed, show
traces of lime and sulphuric acid, which arise
from the impurities of the materials bought
in the market, which their manufacturers use.
This is why the Royal Baking Powder is the
only absolutely pure baking powder made.

�FOR HUMAN FOOD'

The State Board of Live-Stock ComtnlaolouerB has issued and bad published
a bulletin containing a resume of that
ta/rtion of the testimony introduced in
lh&lt;- recent case brought against them by
J. B. Greenhut and other members of
the "whisky trust" of Peoria, known os
the actlnomycoalA or lurapy-jaw cattle
caac, bearing upon the question of tha
eontagiouannea of the disease among
rattle, and from cattle to human beings,
and the unfltne«a of tho flesh of cattle
affected with this disease for use for
human food. The illustrations present-,
•d in connection herewith are from the
photographs of diseased animals which
Were introduced in evidence.
In introducing the subject the board
says: The principal allegation it be-

comes necessary for tho defendants to
prove In order to Justify their actions in
the premises is that tbe disease, actino­
mycosis, is a dangerously infectious or
dangerously contagious malady, and one
great element constituting the danger Is
tbe liability that the meat of animals
oonlaing the germs of the disease- may
communicate the disease to human be­
ings who osS it.
. It is also remarked in the introductory
that in a trial of tills kind much testi­
mony as to facts having a direct and
Important bearing on the question at Isauc that could be Introduced in a legis­
lative examination or an extra-judicial
Investigation was not admissible as evi­
dence in the trial of the cause in ques­
tion; consequently all tho facts which
could have been brought to tho attention
of tho Jury were not permitted to be in­
troduced; for instance, a witness for the
Claintiff testified to tho thoroughness &lt; f
io meat-inspection system in the abat­
toirs at Berlin and that cattle affected
with actinomycosis are not condemned
for food in Germany.
The defense was not permitted by the
court to show by witnesses brought thero
for the purpose that tho facte regarding
tbe use of cattle affected with actinomy­
cosis in Germany tor food, are that the
carcasses of such cattle are classed as
fourth-class or diseased meat, and are
Bold us such to tho poorer donees of
people, who cannot afford to pay the
prices charged for healthy meat, nnd It
could also have been shown that of the
27.1 recorded cases cf this disease in
man about 90 per cent, of these cases
arc recorded In Germany.
Tho bulletin treats briefly of tbe ex­
pert witnesses for the plaintiffs as fol­
lows; The plaintiffs called us experts
Dr. Frank S. Billings, director of the
patho-biological laboratory, Lincoln,
.Neb.; Dr. Olof Schwarakopff, of Minne­
sota; Dr. B. W. Hickman, chief inspec­
tor of the bureau of animal industry, aT
Chicago; Dr. Frank O. Bourachledt, a
ybyrioUn and microscopist, at Peoria;

and Dr. A. Vogel, a veterinary surgeon
of Chicago.
On the question of tho disease being
dangerously contagious or infectious
Dm. Billings, Schwarzkopf! and Vogel,
for tbe plaintiffs, expressed their individ­
ual opinions, under oath, that the dis­
ease was not contagious, consequently
not dangerous, but on cross-examination
each admitted that the disease, Acti­
nomycosis, is due to a germ or parasite,
•which had -been by various scientists
taken from Ute pus discharged from one
animal and Inoculated into another onlma I, and there produced the disease con­
* tainiug similar germs, and Dr. Schwarzkopff admitted that be had, while experi­
menting with the disease,dnoculatcd an
anima! and produced a tumor containing
the germs actinomycoe.
Bach of these gentlemen expressed
tin- opinion that all cattle contract tho
disease by infection from a germ when
taken into the mouth on grass or grain
w other food, but failed on croes-examination to answer why, if tho germ when
originally on grass or grain would wh«*u

fect the animal and produce a tumor, a
similar germ, being identical in struct­
ure anti nature, found in tho pus dis­
charged from a diseased animal, when
transmitted accidentally to the abraded
surface of the fleab of another animal,
would not communicate the dlseaae. Dr.
Hickman was of the opinion that the

A NOTORIOUS LIAR.

Bunpws was, without doubt, the
most notorious liar Nevada will ever
shelter, says the New. York Sun. Ills
fame as a liar spread for a hundred
miles around, and men used toltop
at our camp to get a look at him. He
wasn’t a wicked man, and he had no
-malice about him, but he was a
natural bom liar. He lied about his
father, his mother, his wife, brothers,
sisters, and cverylxxly else, and for
every hour in the day be bad a new
falsehood.
One day a lot of earth and rock
caved In on him ami inflicted fatal
injuries, and a number of us knocked
off work to be with him in hh last
moments. Lying there, with only an
hour of life left to him, he told us
that he had been a pirate on the
Pacific, and where he had buried a
large amount of money. We all knew
that he wak from Ohio and had never
seen an ocean.
One' of the men finally felt it his
duty to say: .
'
“Burrows, you have only a short
time to live. You had best spend
that in preparing for eternity."
"I’ve alius been good," be quietly
replied.
“Yes, but you are an awful liar,
you know.”
“I suppose so. I’ve told a million,
haven’t I?"
“No doubt of it."
“And every one has been laid up
agin’ me?"
“Very likely."
“Well,. boys, it’s my way, and I
can’t change at this late day. Just
as that rave-in came I struck a nug­
get as big as my head. It would
value up a clean 815,000. If you’ll
l&gt;e kind enough to pull it out and sell
it and send the cash to my wife I’ll
die feeling better."
He went off soon after that, and
we said to each other that he had
given us the greatest yam of all. N&lt;&gt;
one took his claim, which was ac­
counted a poor one, and it lay for
three months before one of the boys
dug into it one day for the pickax
burled and forgotten. He hadn't got
the pick when he came across a lump
of gold which balanced 313.280 in
coin, and every shilling of the money
was sent on to the widow.
It got to Ohio to And there was no
widow.
In his dying hour Burrows told the
truth about his find, but repented of
It. and lied about having a wife.

The Kile of flowers by auction is
one of the sights of Covent Garden,
says Good Words. The stands in tbe
the wholesale market arc furnished
over night and the building is open
for private buyers at 4 o'clock next
morning, but all their business is
over at 9 o'clock. The visitor who
attends these purely trade functions
has the advantage of a very charming
flower-show, covering something like
three-quarters of an acre of space,
upon which are arranged tier above
tier of blossoming plants, sometimes
extending up and down, in and out,
to a total frontage of 700 yards.
Tbe auctioneer, who takes his ros­
trum at 10 o’clock, adifi-esses himself
to the men who^are called "higglers,”
a kind of middle-men, who purchase
the flowers in lots and sell them to
the small retailers. The flower girls
can not afford to trade until the gen­
eral customers have had their pick of
the choicest wares, but, taught by a
sharp experience, they are able to
drive very smart i&gt;argains and know
precisely what to purchase.
The pale-faced children of the al­
leys and by-streets of this densely
populated west central district- dili­
gently haunt the purlieus in the
spring.
They have heard of green
fields and buttefbups and daisies, per­
haps have been told that the swal­
low and cuckoo hasten over the. sea
to spend a merry summer in English
meadows and cbpses; but the bunches
and baskets of flowers which here fill
them with delight and wonderment
arc the only evidence of such pleasant
things hitherto vouchsafed to them.
They are to them tokens of an un­
known world. The daffodils, being
brightly golden and of respectable
size, strike them most, as they very
likely strike all classes of visitors.
When March is going out like a roar­
ing lion, and the London streets are
swept by hail and rain, it is pleasant
to turn into Covent Garden and pass
these flowers in review. The wonder
is how such quantities of violets,
primroses and daffodils can be col­
lected. ______________________

—Jack Crawford, in Chicago Tribune

Being out on a prospecting tour In
the mountains, aqd having some
knowledge of birds and beasts in their
native haunts. I was on the alert for
anything I could see. One day while
we were wading a mountain stream
in Skamania County, Washington, I
saw a water ousel leave a waterfall
sime twenty feet above the stream
we were in. By helping my com­
panion up the rocks he was enabled
to reach the place where the bird had
left, and was rewarded by finding a
nest—a splendid waterproof nest —
built in the crevice of the rocks
where the water was pouring over
and partly on to the fore part of the
nest. I now have it and one egg at
home in Vancouver, Washington, os
a relic of our trip.—Great Divide.

At daybreak forty citixens of noodsdale and Springfield, armed with Win­

finding tho sheriff.and deputies in am­

battie ensued, lasting until sunrise. Tbe^

then dispersed and tho three deputies

warned him of the danger. Hu immedi­
ately fled with his family to Arkansas,

arrives.

When 8am Wood was murdered lash
June It was generally charged by his
friends that Judge Botkin and the ad­
herents of the latter wore responsible
for tbe assassination, but no one except
James Brennan, the man who did tho
shooting, was arrested. Judge Botkin,
however, did not feel safe in that part of
the country, and spent a great portion
of his time during tho summer pontha
In Topeka, and with his brother, neah
Fort Scott.
When court convened at Hugoton ‘
Btevens County, in September, Attor-l
ney Geneva! Ives was present to conduct
tho examination of Brennan, and a spe-.
clal State officer was present to preserve!
tho peace, but as no attempt was made!
to create any kind of a disturbance the;
State authorities relaxed their vigilance]
and for some time the Botkin district!
has been considered a safe and peace-'
able part of the State.
Since July, 1888, there has been tur-j
moil in Stevens County. Tho coun
seat contest between Woodsdale
Hugoton culminated in a massacre
Sheriff Cross and his deputies by
Robinson and his gang of about twenty
seven men from Hugoton. There wa
an abatement of the killing then un
early last year, when James Jirennan,
Richfield, Morton County, shot

knowledged leader of. the W
faction. Thia killing occurred in Iron

tofore, though it has always been;
acknowledged that Springfield, the*
county beat of Seward, has been in sym-l
p&amp;thy with Woodsdale and Arkalon, the:
prospective county seat in sympathy!
with Hugoton. This feeling of favorit-l
ism, which unquestionably exists, has
evidently risen to that point whore iti
became uncontrollable, and the Spring-1

she married thother feller and went

him to take her back where he got
her, and when he very natchurally
wanted for to know what added her
she simply told him she thot more of

The husband acknoleges he was sum

book.
I herd tha was a bad house over

was cornin’ in on fut from Battle

nigh to Nashville, and his own boy
and his daughter's busband, awl three
a cornin’out of the house, just ibout

had a big pair of bobs and the way we
cum down that there hill was a cau­

new barber what works down to Tinka
and wears a little curl right down on
his forehead, he got funny and went
over and slid down tbe w.ater wlrks
hill. He won’t do It some more.
When he got down that curl stood rite

funny about it.

THE INVISIBLE ARMY

Of microbes (micro-organism) Is a
mighty host, which indeed no man
can number. Invisible to the naked
eve, the poisonous part of this army is
the cause of four-fifths of all the dis­
eases of the human family—they de­
stroy more lives than war, famine,
fire, murder and shipwreck combined,
and they actually abrevlate the aver­
age term of human life bv threefourthb. The way to relieve the
human body of these microbes is to
take Swift’s Specific.
When this
medicine gets well into tbe system the
poisonous germs must leave—be can­
not exist there, hence he seeks an exit
through the pores of the skin. After
he departs, a continued use of the
SpecQc will force out the poison, and
the pat lent is well.

In consonance withxhe spirit being
evinced bv our most progressive citi­

readers of The News to all local in­
industries and the advent of profes­
sional men of ‘merit, from time to
time as they locate in Our midst, and
take pleasure in com mending the
same to the consideration aud patro­
nage of our citizens. That a boom
has struck Nashville goes without
saying, and that this is due to local
pride and the disposition manifested
on the part of our citizens to patron­
ize home talent and industries Is alike
true. For years many of our citizens
have been accustomed to go to Hast­
ings and Charlotte for dental work
simply because better professional
service was afforded at those places.
This has entailed extra expense be
sides great loos of lime. We are hap­
py to say from personal knowledge
and the experience of others that in
Dr. J. F. Goss our community will
find a professional gentleman inferior

ence, besides beluga genial gentleman.

years the ductor is fully competent to

kinds of plate work, viz. aluminum,

or teeth without plates. While the
doctor has only i»een in our midst a
few weeks he has already secured a
liberal patronage and has done work
for some of our most prominent citi­
zens, perfect satisfaction having
been attained In every case. These
facts being true, our citizens can con­
gratulate themselyes that in the
future dt will lie unnecessary for
neighboring dentists to visit our vil­
lage, and our citizens can, as they
should, patronize home talent, and
satisfaction will be guaranteed in
every case.

The wife of an English ostrich­

plumage.

become much more likely, although
still narrow and pointed. But at the
third plucking they are soft and

On the large breeding farms men
mounted on horses drive the birds
together for the picking, for the
ostriches are apt to stray far away
from home. They are driven in de­
tachments, first Into a large fold and
from this Into a very small pen, the
so-called picking-pen. In this latter

varies with their quality. During
ithe second year of his existence a
male bird furnished 6250,000 worth
of first-quality plumes and about
•150,000 worth of second grade.
An ostrich farm yields from 30 to 50
■per cent, on its original Investment,
and in prosperous times as high as
100 per * cent., says the SL Louis
Globe-Democrat. The rational breed­
ing of the ostrich is of vast impor­
tance to Cape Colony. Years ago
birds were exported to Australia with
such a favorable result that the gov­
ernment of the Cape imposed a tax
of 6500 per bird and 625 for every
unhatched egg for exportation tariff,
in order to protect its own industry.
This killed the export entirely.
In the year 1875 the number of
tame ostriches in the Cape reached
the astounding sum of 32,000, al­
though the breeding of ostriches was
ix»t commenced until 1863. To-day
that number has more than doubled
itself, for in the meantime the Incu­
bators have been largely improved.
During the laying season, which
comes with the end of the rainy period,
the ostrich hen lays one egg every

These surplus eggs arc artificially

eggs must be turned every day. In
from eight to ten days the first signs
of life are noticeable. Shortly before
the young bird is ready to break the

The manuscript lecture on George
III. by Thackeray is in a wonderful
state of preservation. It is handsome­
ly bound, and is embellished by fine
old steel engravings of the Georges,
collected by Mr. Childs, and contains
numerous drawings made by the
author In colors. These are the only
colored drawings of Thackeray in ex­
istence.
Each sheet of the manu­
script, which presents a strong con­
trast in its neatness to Dickens’ writ­
ing, is pasted on heavy cardboard.
This is the original copy, from which
the author delivered his lectures.
The manuscript is as readable as
print, and its excellence is sustained
throughout.

�LARS OF THE DIBAS­
ON THE MONON.

ine. Mia* H&lt;
Louisville, da
local agent of
rille, who belf

In all truth the official* of the Louis­
ville, New Albany and Chicago Railroad
Company have said that the disaster
which overtook their northbound pas­
senger train Dorth of Crawfordsville,
Ind., wa* tbe worst hi the history of the
road. The Monon ha* bad it* ahare of
misfortune*. There were more fatalities
at Broad Ripple and at other wrecks on
that line, but none exceeded the Craw­
fordsville affair in horror, or in whole­
sale maiming, as the qtorles heard and
the investigation* made at the scene of
the accident go to show. Three victim*
are in the lint of fatalities *o far. They
are Mme. Erina Van llokay, the daneeuseof the City Club Burlesque Com­
pany; Ben Hamburg, the Cincinnati
traveling man; and C.
Cheek, lumber
merchant, of Green Castle. Nellie Han;
ley of the show company. Mrs. Rosa
Evans .of Green Castle, and E. Whitjsides, three of the thirty-four maimed
victims, will die.
In Crawfordsville the wreck caused
great excitement. Feeling was strong
against the section men. who were re­
ported to have left the rail which caused
the wreck insecurely spiked to the track.
But there came a change of sentiment
when Samuel Burkholder, a respected
citizen, reported that in u conversation
with one of the section men he had been
told tliat the rail which caused all the
trouble bad been broken for a long time,
and that the section men had applied in
’ vain to the company for a new rail. It
was refused, so the section man said, on
the ground that the whole line was soon
to be supplied with new steel rails.
The accident occurred at a place that
is one of the most dangerous point* in
the Motion system. A mile and a half
north of Crawfordsville the track crosses
a deep ravine on a trestle some forty
feet high. After crossing the ravine tbe
roadbed winds around a hill, and follows
the bends of the hollow for some dis­
tance, tbe track being for the most part
cut out of the steep side pf the ravine.
Just north of the trestle there is a point
especially precipitous, and It was chosen
by the fate* fur the scene of the dis­
aster.
A hundred yards before reaching the
steepest j^)lnt the train struck a broken
rail. The engine passed oVer safely,
but the first car, a mail coach, wo* de­
railed. The cars broke loose from each
other, but followed the ties until that
awful declivity was reached. The mall

ear turned endwise and rolled down the
hill. The second car, a combination
coach, carrying the baggage of the
theatrical company, stayed right where
it was on the track, not even leaving the
tics.
The smoking car fell on it*
side and
started down the hill.
Three times the car turned com­
pletely over.
The brakeman wa*
fixing tl^ fire at the time tbe car left the
tracks, and, the stove-door being open,
the live coals flew everywhere among
the many passengers. The car was set
on fire in many places, and the flames
burned the frightened occupant*. Tho
car was not broken much, however, and
all those in the cor escaped by breaking
through the windows before any were
fatally burned. Some painful bruises
reeulted, however, to the people in the
car. as they were thrown from floor to
, ceiling and from ceiling to floor with
each tu*i it made. The car was con­
sumed by the flames after all the pas­
sengers had gotten ouL
Next to the smoker was the ladles* car,
and in it the greatest mischief wa* done.
As it started to roll down the steep de­
cline, as the smoker had done before it,

it found a harder road to travel. Direct­
ly In it path was the broken, Jagged
etump of a tree. The side of the car
struck this with terrific force, and the
sharp, firmly set timber pier ing the aide
instantly killed Mme. Van Hokey and
Ben Hamburg.
Both victim* were
mangled In a frightful way and what
wa* left of the drummer was partly car­
ried away in a basket and the rest
brought on a stretcher.

Just realizing that something awful had
happene&lt;l and to feel their own injuries
when the ear came to a stop against a
large sycamore. A moment later dowu
came the last car, a heavy Pullman
coach, with an awful craah, settling
down almost squarely oo the ladle*' ear,

She hurried to the scene, running the
entire two miles, and, being the only
woman unhurt, she was of infinite sarvice, giving her cRmk to one helpless suf­
ferer, soothing others, and working in
the cold blasts as hard as any man. Ths
dead and wounded were carried to CrawfordsVile and cared for. The people of
tbe town offered many gentle services.
.Another costly and almost equally
horrible accident came near filling out a
day of misfortune for the Monon. Just
before midnight the wrecking-train
pulled into Crawfordsville from the
scene of the day’s disaster. Nine men
were. sleeping In the caboose of tbe
wrecking-train st the station, which
was lying on the main track, when sud-

denly around the curve eame a through
freight at full speed with twenty-five
car* heavily loaded. The last three cars
of the wrecking train were completely
demolished, and some barrels of oil as­
sisted In making n terrible conflagra­
tion. But no one was hurt. •
•
Agent* of tho road appeared in the city
soon after the accident and were busy
settling claims for cash where they
could, and refusing to settle where the
passengers were unreasonable in their
demands. Claim Agent Houston had a
satchel full of greenbacks which he dis­
tributed in lots of $10 to $100. All
affirmed that there wa* no defect in the
road or roadbed.
'There are many things about this
wreck I don’t understand," said Mr.
Kretxinger. “The roadbed was in Just
as good condition as it possibly could be.
A* a proof of this, I might say that the
roadbed wa* that firm that in the whole
hundred yards of track that was dragged
over by the trucks after tha cars left the

track, and before they fell down the hill,
not a single tie was disturbed from its
place, so firmly are they laid and so per­
fect is the ballasting."
“The wreck," sold General Superin­
tendent Collins, “was the result ef a
broken rail, but how the rail was broken •
I do not know. I have not seen tho
pieces, to know .whether the rail was de­
fective or whether it was the work of
frost. Tho rails were of the best of
steel, and I think frost did the work. I
do not see that it could possibly have
been avoided by any precautionary
measures. It's Just what would have
happened on any road, but it occurred
on about the worst spot on the whole
line, and it is a wonder to me that therq
were so few fatalities. In my thirty
years of railroading I never saw a worse
CHASE

OF THE WALRUS.

The United State* has a little wnr
on hand along the Rio Grande, the
dividing Hoe t»etween Texas and Mex­
ico. The fact that so many men have
risen to the President Jul chair of
Mexico by means of military filibus­
tering has left an influence that 13
keenly felt in that territory, and thus
it Is not surprising that at present we
find the adventurer. C'atarinu Garza,
trying to create a division that may
elevate him to the place now filled by
President Diaz. Did Garza confine
his operations to Mexico the United
States could remain a mere spectator,
but unfortunately Garza has violated
and is violating the neutrality laws
of the United States and as a conse­
quence our Government is opposing
him with military force.
Already
conflicts have taken place between
Garza's troops and tbe United States
forces In Texas.
So long as Garxa’s forces are few
there may be enough glory in a con­
flict for United States troops but as
the Texas side of the border abounds
in sympathizers for the adventurer,
there I* no knowing ho#many men
he may pt any time become leader of,
and no doubt if ab’.e be would plun­
der our border forts. Garza s policy
is to create a small army on the Lor
der and then march toward the cen­
ter of Mexico, trusting tv internal
disaffection with the present Govern­
ment to cause a reaction In his favor
as President. As the Mcxican’States
bordering on tbe Rio Grande are well
supplied with soldiers, Garza natural­
ly is collecting bis followers on the

Texas side, where there arc few
troops and
many
sympathizers.
United States troops under Capt.
John Bourke recently defeated the
Mexican revolutionists, who then
crossed the Rio Grande and marched
toward Mier, a stronghold of Garza.
Here, however, they again suffered
defeat by the Mexicans and once more
recrossed the river into United States
territory. Along the line of the Rio
Grande the United States has now
1,000 troops and preparations are be­
ing rapidly made to augment them.
Between these two fires,Garza seems
to be in rather hot-quarters, but the
changes in Mexican affairs arc so
many and startling that vy? would
not be much surprised to hear of a
considerable number of Mexican
troops declaring for the adventurer.
Catarlno Garza was lorn in Mexico
and reared in Texas. After graduat­
ing from the University of Mexico he
entered the army, but an act of in­
subordination sent him to the Texas
side of the Rio Grande. While living
in Rio Grande City he shot a man
named Sebree, and is said to have
killed two customs inspectors.
At
Duval, Texas, he started a paper in
opposition to the Mexican GovernmenL Disappearing for a time, he
reappeared last September at tbe
head of a revolutionary force, crossed
the Rio Grande into Mexico, and was
there defeated by Government troops.
Since then he has lived the life of an
outlaw until a few weeks ago, when
he again began active opposition to
the Diaz Government.

and promise. In 1*77 the great Wilkes
mare So-So trotted to a two-year-old
record of 3:31 and set the world agog,
and this record stood unbeaten until
1880. Among some of the beat horses
of the day we find those that were great
as two-year olds. So-So has proved a
splendid brood mare, producing Alt-So,
the phenomenal Stamboul, Palo

Shows that all epidemic, endemic, and
contagious diseases is produced by
minute Infecting germs or microbes,
peculiar to each disease, which enter
the system. It being a settled fact
that any remedy which would kill tbe
germ or microbe would destroy the
life of the patient, it has been found
that to force out these germs is the
only safe relief from their ravages. In
this way Swift’s Specific has for W)
years been blood and skin diseases. 11
forces out the microbes through the
pores of the skin, and soon sends out
the poison which they may have left.
In his way tbe disease Is cured, and

fell. He was scared half to death, and
said that he had been shifted from one
bin to another for about a week, and had
learned that there are about 25ft blns—
some for shipping and receiving;' with a
total capacity of 1,500,000 bushels—In
the building. As he parsed out of one
bin into another he was whisked through
tho cleaner and shaken down into one
sieve after another until he lay half con­
scious on the floor. Before he recovered
from his fright the poor little thing had
been picked up and weight'd and meas­
ured half a dozen times, and hurled
headlong down a leg, or tube, nearly
one hundred feet into a canalboat. He
thought that his troubles were ended, but
they were only begun. Some one inside
the building decided that the boat would
have to be unloaded. The agony of this,
he said, was excruciating. First, the
boat was moved to the south end of tho
elevator.
There was
a ‘h-e-o-!
h-e-a-v-e!’ and a clanking of ropes and
pulleys, when suddenly the long marine
leg of the elevator with its endless belt
of buckets was ruthlessly thrust Into the
canallx&gt;at snd began its work. Some of
the little kernels of wheat were crushed,
and all were terrified. The man with
the shovel was on hand again gathering
them up from tho ends of the boat, and
Before they knew it they were all up on
the top floor of the elevator again, ready
to be weighed and sent through the blns
once more into a train of cars bound for
New England. The marine leg was pull-

“He was a whole fortnight in that ole-

“Tho bolt is 300 foot long and 4J feet
wide. It weighs 2,800 pounds. On the
top floor this belt turns a shaft extending
the entire length of the building. The
shaft is connected with the loiters, which
have belt buckets that do not extend
to the bottom floor and are used in shift­
ing grain from one bin to another, or
sending it through the cleaner into the

big hopper above the scales. Beneath
the hopper he noticed a leg that turned
around, so that when the grain runs out
of the hopper It may b^ sent into any
ono of the twenty bins at will. This is
done by putting the mouth of the leg
into any one of the many shafts- all
arranged in a circle like tho letters of a
typewriter about a circular spocc. Some
of the shafts were marked *8. 4,’ mean­
ing that it would lead to shipping bln
No. 4. Another was marked 'A. R. C,’
receiving' bin 6, In another part of the
building, and the grain from the hopper
could

almost any ono of them. The wheat
kernel also came upon nineteen endless
bucket belts running from the ground
floor of tho building to the top, and I
learned upon inquiry that each ono of
these belts will raise 5,000 bushels of
grain in an hour. On tho west side of
the elevator, toward the river, are nine­
teen legs by which canal boats are load­
ed, and a marine leg, which Is kept In
the north wing of tho building, for un­
loading canal boats when It is necessary.
"There are five scales with a capacity
for weighing abeut 70,000 bushels of
grain each. And from each of the legs
on the oast aldo 1,400 bushels of grain
may be poured into a car in five minutes.
Its flow is regulated by a gate and it
can be swung back and forth so as to
till the car evenly. Between 100,000
and 200,000 bushels of grain go through
the place every day. Some of It Is
cleaned In the building before it Is
weighed, and the arrangement of shafts
and endless buckets Is most conven­
ient for sanding It from ona end of the
building to the other.’
‘The kernel I was talking to told me4
that on a man’s hat brim he rode into
the scale-room office.
"A man keeps track of every kernel of
corn that passes through tho building.
He has an office on the scale floor and
several assistants. Along one side of
the room is a blackboard, having an
outline of tho plan of the Interior of the
building painted on it. The receiving
bins and shipping bins are connected
by chalk marts, showing which ones
may be Immediately connected for the
shifting of grain.
‘Below tills are squares numbered
after each of the 250 storage bins in the
elevator, lied wheat in red chalk, com
in yellow chalk, green wheat in green
chalk, wheat in white chalk, and oats in
purple chalk were marked on each
square to represent the number of the
bln t» which it refers. Only two of tl^e
bins were empty last week, and the man
in charge could toil in a twinkling if a'n
order for a certain number of bushels of
any kind of grain should come io just
what bins be could go to to find it. And
below this was another.table that looked
like a schoolboy’s formula for finding
the least common multiple. By this he
could tell just what legs and belts and
machinery he would have to connect In
order to get it ready for shipment In the
big shipping bin where it is weighed.
‘While he was talking the scale bin

an ocean steamer, Down a long leg—
there are nineteen of them on &amp; west |
side of ttie elevator—we went. You
never saw such a' fail, and the grain
poured out at the leg just us waster flows
out of a pip-'. The dust was suffocat­
ing. I struck the aide of the boat and
lay on the deck, for a moment partly
stunned. One man held the end of the
leg down which the corn was falling.
Hr bad a rope about it and pulled on
the rope to guide It. , First It filled up
one side of the boat and then tire other.
Another man wallowed in tho corn on
IXNud with a shovel. He wore a muzzle
on his face that made his head look ilko
tli* head of old Farmer,. Brown’s hogs.
The other kernels of com were frlght&lt;ned. They did not object to being sent
to distant Russia, where they could re­
lievo the famine, or go to Ireland cither,
whore they could do much good. But
to fall into the trough of a hog after
suck a journey was beyond their endur­
ance. Just then I saw that it was a
muzzle tho man hnd put on to keep out
cbrtications from flying into his nostrils.
. Ho was covered with dust and his hair
was gray with it.
Wo were soon pulled out into the river
alongside an ocean steamer. A tug
came after us and a lot of boats were
hitched together. Borno of them left
beside ‘tramp’ steamships. Others were
dropped alongside the big passenger
boats. The one I was on was left by
this ship and It was not long before we
were on board. But wo had to go
aboard another boat first—on elevator
boat. And It was the seventh time I
was transshipped since I left old
Brown’s farm.
“At last a tugboat with an elevator
built right on it reaching way up higher
than the side of a shlp'camo along and
began to wedge Its way in between us
and tho ocean vessel, ft had an air of
business and bustle and there was-a
corresponding bustle on the steamship
when it arrived. Soon after I was ihrept
into the hold of the canalboat, the
elevator boat ran a long leg down Into
the canalboat. . Then the powerful ma­
chinery that is used to move the tug was
applied to the machinery in the elevator
and the buckets on the l*elt began to
pick up the kernels of corn in the canal­
boat at a terrific rate.-' •­
‘On the elevator .floor below tho top
cne there was a brief wait, while we
were weighed again, and then we went
spinning down into the bottom of-the
ship’s hold. AIkh'o the scales was a
cleaner, but our lot did not have to go
through that, as wo were cleaned at tho
elevator, and it is used chiefly for grain
that comes an .from Buffalo all the way
by boat and is not cleaned in one of tho
great railroad elevators.
"The elevator on board tho twat has
al! the appliances of tho railroad ele­
vator, but the ship's hold is the bin into
which tho corn is sent. When I got
• down here with another cortication partly
gone I found the steamer's hold divided
Into bins, some for wheat and some for
corn.
“The elevator leg was strung tn and
fro.
First ono bln was filled, then
another, just as the freight cars had
been at Buffalo, and men with shovels
evened it off. In tramp steamships,
whore there ore no blns, men have a
harder time to trim the hold with their
shovels. When the top is dressed as
evenly ns it can be boards arc laid on it
and on them heavy floor barrels aro
placed so that the grain will not shift
from side -to side and perhaps not shift
baek again when the vessel heaves.
Tramp steamships are in great peril
sometimes when this happens in .rough
weather."
' ‘And are we going to be hauled out of
hero tho same way?" asked the wheat
kernel, deeply interested In his fate.
‘Yes; I guess in about the same way
when we roach tho other side," answered
the corn.
‘You have no conception of tho
amount of grain shipped from the United
States in one year," the kernel of corn
wonfron. "Why, I heard two men giv­
ing figures as to tho value of cereals ex-'
ported as follows:

Each of tho kernels wanted to go
where he could do some good in allevi­
ating the wants of humanity, and in this
generous missionary spirit they both fell
asleep.
As "breadstuffs” is the largest single
item In value in our exports the figures
of total exports for November, 1891—
$110,100,221'—are interesting, as they ore
the largest on record. For tho year
endiug Dec. 1, 1891, our total exports
reached the enormous sum of $949,022,­
185. and the United States sold to other
nations $129,649,096 of product more
than they took from all other nations.
For tho current fiscal year the exports
from the United States will exceed one

The fact that Frederick the Great
of Prussia was an actikc journalist"
and a firm believer in the mission
and the power of the prets has been
brought to general attention curiously
enough just in these days when Em­
peror William IT. is speaking of the
newspaper men of his empire as "can­
didates for starvation” and “demor­
alized high school graduates.”
Frederick the Great was the first
Hohenzollern who made energetic use
of the rather weak German press to
strengthen him and justify his meas­
ures in the eyes of his own and other
people. He chose two ways of cre­
ating the public opinion he thought
he deserved. Sometimes he sent the
outlines of articles or directions as to
how they should be drawn to his
diplomatic agents abroad, with in­
structions that they should see to
their publication in English, Dutchand Hamburg papers. In this case
he always read what was published,
a*id if he found a bit of slip-shod con­
densing or careless elaboration, cor­
rected the poor work with his own
hand and forwarded the marked sheet
to the unskilled diplomat who was at
fault. At other times, and especially
when military matters were in ques­
tion, the great sovereign wrote with
his own hand the copy that went to
the printer in the office of the dally
selected
for his correspondence.
Many such autograph articles in time
of peace were sent abroad for anony­
mous publication, under the supervis­
ion of discreet representatives of the
King. Other articles appeared in
Germany, as, for Instance, the “Let­
ters of an Eye-witness," which were
written by Frederick during the first
two Silesian wars aqd were published
in the Spener Zeltung. So also in
Frederick's private papers ware found
numerous directions in ills handwrit­
ing to the effect that this or that
essay, sketch, or report should be
sent to the press. I here is still in
existence this letter from the*Cabln?t
Secretary Eichel to Count Finckenstein in Berlin:
“At the command of the King I
send you the last of the journal of the
last campaign, in order that you may
communicate the same to the foreign
Ministers and make it generally
known through the medium of the
press. See also that the Cyprian
trader [probably an agent for Con­
stantinople] gets two or three copies
of a paper containing the matter."
The close of the journal was, in4
fact, given out for publication from
Dresden four days after the writing
of this letter, and appeared in the
Berliner Nnchrichten. Similar in­
stances abound in Frederick’s record
during the seven-years war. Then,
too, he wrote on his own and his
country’s behalf, and watched care­
fully all phases of public opinion at
nome and abroad, with a view to
meeting as much as possible the oppo­
sition through the columns of the
“
papers at his service.

placed in the hands of Professor Otis
T. Mason at the National Museum,
says the Washinton Star. It is the
breastlxltie of a wild brant transfixed
by an arrow.
The bird, which
weighed about fifteen pounds, was
shot In the Kankakee marshes, In­
diana, with a gun and sulwequently
eaten, but-the part of its anatomy
mentioned was preserved.
Once upon a time—It mu#t have
been wime years b'sfore—this particu­
lar brant was summering In Alaska,
where others of Its species gather
every year for the purpose of muting.
An Indian shot at the bird with an
arrow which had for Its point a piece
of deer’s rib seven inches lung. His
alm was so true that the weapon went
clear through the “keel” of the fowl's
breastbone and stuck there, the shaft
falling to the ground. It is in this
way that the natives of the*-* part*
make their arrows in order that the
shafts may not be lost. The latter
fall when the game is*stnick and are
picked up again.
Though transfixed in this fashion
the brant was too sturdy a bird to
yield its life so readily, no vital or­
gan having been touched, and It
calmly flew away, doubtless to the
disgust of the hunter. After a while
the wound healed, and the fowl man­
aged to get along very comfortably
wlth the deer’s rib through Its breast.
Years afterward it was slain with
more sure leaded shot in Indiana, and
now its breastbone has been deposited
at the National Museum by W. W.
Cheshire of this city. Its tragic his­
tory is known thus in detail because
the arrow head itself -told it all.
Each Indian tribe in Alaska make its
weapons after a pattern peculiar to
Itself, and Professor Mason has thus
been enabled to determine that the
brant was struck with the arrow on
the Yukon River, and nowhere else.
Furthermore, he knows positively at
what part of the Yukon the thing
occurred, and he can even locate the
spot with certainty within two or
three miles. It is an affair quit.unique that a bird should be thus Im­
paled and yet carry the instrument
of death so long and in such a man­
ner. Besides, the story has addition­
al interest in the bearing it has upon
thq study of this bird's migration.
The arrow head is stuck through
the keel of the breastbone Pf-eclscly at
right angles with the latter, project­
ing on either side alx'ut an equal dis­
tance.
To protect the bird’s flesh
against its Irritation bony material
has been deposited around the weapon
for half an inch each way. The piece
of deer’s rib was straightened by the
maker of the arrow with a sort of
wrench in the process of manufacture,
after which it was shaved down and
polished to a fine point. Near the
butt end of it is a single barb, for the
instrument is of the character known
as the rankling weapon—that is to
say, after entering the flesh of the
victim it works its way into the
vitals, eventually causing death. An
Indian thinks nothing of following a
deer thus wounded for many days In
the expectation of securing the prey
finally.

THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION
COMES WEST.

One of the most appalling fires in the
history of Indianapolis occurred shortly
after midnight the other night. 'The
National Surgical Institute, one of the
most famous institutions of its character
in the United States, burned to the
ground. The fire started in the office
building, and above the offices were the
wards for babes anti mothers and known
as the ABC departments. Smoke was
discovered a few minutes before mid­
night Issuing from tho advertlalng-roosr
of the building, which is Immediately
over the office. Tho origin la claimed to
have been from the epontan«,ouH com­
bustion of some chemical* which had
been placed In the room. Circular* and
papers in tho room soon were ablaze and
In fifteen minutes the whole lower floor
was enveloped in flames.
•
* Tho attendants barely awakened all
of the patients, and in the halls and
supper-rooms pandemonium reigned.
Shriek after shriek went up as tho in­
mates realized their terrible situation.
In a few moments thoroughly frightened
faces appeared at. each window of the
large building, and lipa could be seen
beseeching succor from those below, yet
their voices could not be heard. Prayer after prayer went up from the unfortun­
ate creatures, already the victims of
cruel circumstances, that they might
not perish In flames after suffering the
most terrible pains from their afflic­
tions. The police and firemen and attend­
ants all worked diligently and in per­
fect accord, and many Were tho patients
taken from the upper floors by means of
ladders and carried to places of safe­
ty by them. No attempt was made to,
save anything but life. The patient*,
both male and female, themselves under
ordinary circumstances unable to barely
get about, assisted most nobly in the
work of rescue. A view in the halls and
on the stairways before ttie fire had com­
municated to tho main building furnished
* weird sight. Inmates wrapped In bed­
clothing crawled and helped themselves
along from one fi^or and one landing to
the other. Without waiting for ladders
to be run up, the desperate Inmates
lumped from the windows or huddled to­
gether upon the fire escape, *but the
flames cut off this descent at the second
story and here tKey threw themselves to
the ground. At least thirty persons
were Injured, some terribly. Some oC

lands and negroes, but wit* stripped
oomph’tely by th* nocupaUon or hw
plantat ion by federal troops, told the
sutry of au .octoroon girl sine* tbe war.
writes Nashy in the Toleds Blade.
:
The girl was one of the most, tjeauliful of her race, and, of course, had
been trained by her mother to be as
wise as a wrja-iit if not as harm lew as
a d«»ve. She knew Just bow l&gt;eaut!ful she was, and precisely what that
beauty wax worth. She was. it is pre­
sumed, of a very warm and impulsive
nature, but she had her impulses ter­
ribly vtell under coutrtd.
A young man, a very rich young
man that is, a young'man with a very
yicl’ father—saw her and fell in love
with her. A great many young men
hail done the same thing, but she put
a high price ujK»n herself. ’ A house
furnished never $o well was all verywell for common girls, but she held
herself far above that sort of thing.
She was iwrfectly willing the young
,mari should have her, but marriage
was ber price, nothing less. .When he
told her how much he loved’ her, she
assured him that love was not worth
a whit v.» a women unless it was legali«ed; qnd if he loved her as he said
he did, heuught to be willing to make
the sacrifice she required that he
might possess her. He begged,stormed,
swore, entreated, went, wailed and
howled, but to no avail. She was as
cool.as a cucumber. She loved him
and hc.loved her—why nut marry?
The young man represented to ber
that his father was a widower, thathe
was the only son, and that he labored
under the disadvantage of not having
a dollar except as his father chose 4o
give it him; that the old gentleman
bad tbe regulation prejudice pgainst
marrying octoroons, and would should
he do so, cut him off without a dollar.
Lie would be perfectly willing to sec
her his mistress, but his wife, neyer.
This Is New Orleans morality.
But the girl remained firm, and
would hear of nothing less than actual
marriage, and the young man was so
Infatuated wjth her that he mustered
up courage and went to his fat her.
Tbe old man was very stern with
him. His son marry’ an octoroon!
Never!
“Do It, sir,” said he in the regular
Irate-father style,-“and you will never
look me in the face again.”
In vain the young man appealed.
In vain he remarked to the old gentle­
man that be had been young once and
ought to know how It was himself.
The old man did not see it in that
light. It Is true true that old men
who have gone through every thing,
who have run up and’down the whole
gamut of folly, will not permit their
sons V, do. it. There is something'
singular in this. Man Is very egotis­
tic- The fat her will shudder at the
thought of his son’s”doing a tithe of
what he did himself, never thinking
that what be did himself and came
through safely, bls son may do with
equal safety.
But he would have none of it. He
had no earthly objection to his son’s
living with the girl, illegitimately,
but to marry her. never!
“But, father,” pleaded the young
man, "she is no common woman.”
“I don’t suppose she is. Were she,
you would not rave so over her.”
“All I ask Is that you go to see
Murle. Go and see her and I know
you will welcome her as a daughter.
Go and see her.”
The young man was confident that
the charms that bad enslaved him
would capture his father.
“I will go and see her,” said the
father, “to please you, but it will not
alter my decision. But 1 will go and
see her.”
'
The Old gentleman did go and see
her and he tound his sod had not ex­
aggerated her qualities. She was ex­
ceedingly beautiful, exceedingly bright
exceedingly accomplished and as keen
as a razor. She was the wisest young
octoroon there was In New Orleans,
and she took good care to put her best
foot forward. She talked,the old
gentleman out of his prejudices, she
made him Interested in her, and when
be left her presence he went out in a
sort of a dazed way.
He did not return to his son at all,
but avoided him. The young lady
said to her motheraftcr theoldgentleman bad gone: “I don’t think, mam­
ma, I shall marry Edward. I don't
think I like him as well as I thought
I did, and marriage without absolute
love would tie, to a sensatlye nature
like mine, a hell upon earth.”
“Don’t talk rubbish to me,” re­
marked the mother. "You won.t
throw oyer so excellent a young man,
with such brilliant prospects, will
you?”
“A bird in the hand is worth two in
the bush. My shri nking soul Is frightende at the thought of trusting my
future to a young and changeable
man. I require love. I require love.
I require the entire devotion of a heart
as simple and true as my own. And
besides, mamma, suppose the cruel
father should disinherit the son! That
would be terrible. I think my duty to
myself and you requires me. to . shake
the young man. But I shall do mail­
ing hastily. I shall consult my heart.”
The next day the old gentleman
called again and enjoyed an hour or
two of the delightful girl’s society,
and whp.n Edward same again he was
not permitted to see her.
‘She loves you,” said the mother,
whn did see him. “with a love furious

Her very love for you prevents her
from making you miserable.
“But I must see her.”

It wm Impwudbl? that he should see
Marie, for a very good reason—-viz.,
bis father was with her trying to pertiuadt* her to accept- his "protection,”
which the astut* young woman re­
jected, as she bad a similar offer from
his son.
The young Edward found himself
in a very singular position. He could
not see his loyo withorrt the consent
of his father, and he could not sec bls
father at all to get his consent. He
could make nothing at al! of lt&lt;
About a week thereafter the mystery
was cleared up. He received the fol­
lowing from hla father dated New
York:
"My Dear Son:—All you said to

mind. She Is at once the most t»eautlful and Abe wisest of her sex. I should

her but for one trifling fact. I have
found it essential to my happiness
that 1 should marry her myself, which
I have done. I have provided for you

Timber Cutting Machine.

A machine which Is expected to rev­
olutionize the lumber business Is in
operation in one of the eastern states.
This machine cuts lumber without
any waste, and there is no sawdust
whatever. In cutting lumber with a
saw there ‘s a great loss which goes
into sawdust. The new invention,
which is called the Bradley draw cut­
ting machine, is designed to cut thin
boards and planks, and will cut In
different thicknesses from one thirtysecond of an Inch up.
.
The-savlng in lumber that this ma­
chine will effect will be very great.
In small lumber one-quarter and onehalf an Inch tn thickness, one-quarter
of the log is lost In sawdust. Then
another eighth is lost In planing, and
the lumberman in preparing bls lum­
ber for use loses three-eighths of the
log. This new invention will save all
that. On a recent trial the machine
cut cherry, ash, birch and maple, in.
thickness from a sixteenth to a half
inch. The machines intended to be
placed in the woods and to cut the
trees as soon as they are felled. Green
wood is cut more easily than seasoned
wood, but logs were cut on the trial
that had laid In the yard ten years.
The machine weighs forty tons.
Giving up a Brutal Custom.
Steel caskets for the bodies of those
who die suddenly on shfpboard are
being carried on many of the transat­
lantic liners. The remains are placed
in them and hermetically sealed. The
heartless pract ice of throwing the re­
mains overU.a.-d is considered worse
that barliarous, especially when a ves­
sel Is within a few miles of land.
Bodies, when weighed, only sink a few
feet below the surface of the water,
where they are soon attacked by the
tlsh and sharks, and reappear upon
the surface of the water within forty­
eight hours. The body of the wife of
a rich New Yorker, thrown overboard
from a Vera Cruz steamer a few
months ago, drifted ashore on the
coast of Mexico, and was seen for
months afterward, until robed and
sunk by bandits for the finger rings.

In the Cathedral of Genoa is pre­
served, and has been far 600 years, a
vase or immense value. 11 is cut from
a single emerald.’ Its principal diam­
eter Is twelve and a half Inches, and
it# height five and three-fourth inches.
It is kept under several locks, the keys
of which are in different hands, and it
Is rarely exhibited In public, and only*
by an order of the senate. When ex­
hibited It is suspended around the
neck of a priest by a cord, and no one
is allowed to touch it but him. A de­
cree passed In 1476 forbids any one
going too near the precious relic. A
Genoese antiquarian has written a
book to demonstrate that this vase Is
one of the gifts made to Solomon by
the Queen of Shelia.
There are now 171,000 miles of rail­
road In the United States, a much
larger mileage than any other lu the
world possesses. The track laid this
year was considerably less than for
several preceding years, being scarcely
one-tbird of that of last year. Still
the iron workers of the country have
been tolerably busy. The Increased
use of iron and steel in building probablv accounts fpr it. The tall mod­
ern buildings now so common in cities
explain the growth of the demand for
structural iron. In such - building
the walls are not much more than a
covering. The weight is chiefly borne
by iron and steel. The prosperity of
the iron trade does not depend to so
large an extent as formerly on rail­
road building. Still there is likely to
be a great increase in this kind of
work next year. The iron Journals re­
port that 600.000 tons of new steel
rail have been contracted for.
This
means about 6,000 miles of new track.
Much of it will no doubt be renewals
c-f track on existing lines, but orders
for such a great quantity so early in
the season are an indication that a
great deal of iron and sted will go
into rails.
The cost of the 600,000
tons will be about 818,000,000, a very
large sum for the iron men to handle
at the beginning of last year.

may require, and also an affidavit or

are personally acquainted with such

.
I am convinced, after a careful invest­
igation, that the intent of the act is,
that where a transcript of tho poll-list
has been procured, an affidavit should
bo attached to each petition by parties
circulating the same, or some resident
elector, showing that th*v are person­
ally acquaib tod with said petitioners,
ana that the signatures are the genuine
signatures of the1 parties signing such
petition, and ot- tho person* whose
names appear severally upon the transecript of the poll-list annexed to such
petition.
And in case a poll-list has not been
procured and attached to the petition,
then the affidavit should further state
after the clause, “and that the signa­
ture* are tbe genuine signature* of the
. persons signing said petition," “and
that they are to tho best of the affiants

the poll-list is attached to the petition,,

affidavitlhe clause “nnd that the parties
signing the petition are to the best of the
affiants knowledge and belief qualified

or voting proclnct as the case may be;"
which last clause takes the place of%th*
poll-list, but does not do away with the
necessity of showing that the signatures
to the petition aro the genuine signa­
tures of the electors signing the aarnc.
There have been two forms of affida­
vit* used by parties in making their
returns to tho petitions oircuhtted,
which arc as follows:

FIRST FORM OF AFFIDAVIT USED.
“State of Michigan. )
County or Barky.
j
John Doe, being duly sworn, says I
am a resident elector of the township of

acquainted with the petitioners named
in the petition,to which this affidavit is

titioners resides in th* township of ....
and that the signatures

transcript of tho poll list of the said
township and attached to said petition.

SECOND FORM OF AFFIDAVIT USED.

John Doe, being duly sworn, says, I

personally
acquainted with the petition*!** named

Attached to wmc of the petitions was
t he fl rot form of affidavit, and to other*
lhe second forqfebut to uono of the peti­
tions were both forms ot affidavits
■ attached, or tho substance of both, even
•where th* poll-lbt was not attached.
Tbe first form of affidavit is- in my
opinion all the law contemplated’should
Or require* to bo atttacbod to petitions
whore tho poll-lbt te annexed thereto;
but to all petitions to whiote the polllbt te not annexed, there should be
attached the second form of afildavit in
order to show that the parties signing
■aid petition are qualified elector* of
the voting precinct in which the *ignaturea were obtained, as well as tho firot
affidavit, or the substance thereof, to
■how that tbe signature* to »u*h petitious are the genuine signatures of the :
persons signing the same.
The subktance ot both affidavits could
readily have bom embodied in one
where the circumatances or condition of
things required it.
All of the petitions to which te
attached a poll-list and lhe first form of
affidavit, are sufficient and fully comply
with the law, but *11 petition* to which
do poll-lbt b annexed, and have only
alteched thereto the second form of affi­
davit, are insufficient inasmuch us there
b nothing to show that the signatures
to such petitions are the genukw sig­
natures of the persons signing the same.
In order to show tho opinion of ex­
attorney general, S. V. N. Strowbridgc.
as to the form and substance of the afildarite that should be attached to peti­
tions obtained under thte set, I herein

for the most patt helpless.
Despard and Dant&gt;n, however, had
escaped the general suffering, as they
had watched tho hermit at a little dis­
tance
As -Walford noticed this, he
flung s package of powder over tho
lamp- Immediately a donro vapor
spread over the scene.
*
"lhe girl—th#wagon'.” cried Despard.
“This Is all a trick of our enemies. Sec,
tho man has disappeared.'"
Tbe hermit had certainly left tho spot
where last they had soon him
Despard
and Danton made a simultaneous rush
for the wagon At its rear stood tho
man they sought.
Danton seized him by tho arm and
held him firmly. Despard tore aside the
canvas and peered Into tho vehicle.
“The girl Is gone!” he cried.
Walford started, fully as much amazed
as the bandit*
“Gone?” echoed Danton, Incredu­

“Yes. It was all a plot Who has
taken her?" ho demanded of Walford.
“Toll me, or I will kill you."
“I do not know."

They learned later what had really oc­

Darrel Grey had rescued Inez Tracey.
He had reached tho bandit camp, and
while the hermit engaged tho attention
of lhe outlaws, had hurried her away.
He went direct to the ravine. Tho hap­
py Inez did not delay their flight by
questioning him. Together they reached
the place where White Fawn awaited

’The woman who finds a burglar in
her bed-room at night and coBly or­

ders him to leave, instead of fainting
or screaming, israre,-4iut Mmede Bar­
rios, widow, of Gen. de Barrios, once
president of Guatemala, who resides
at present in New York city, did that
very thing recently.
The New York Tribune has dis­
covered that in this age of general
knowledge no singlet man knows so
much more than his fellows as to have
acquired the right to throw stones at
the ignorance ot others. This is by
no means a new discovery, but the
throwing of stones goes right on.

It was a crusty old bachelor who
said that the 500,000 women who
signed the peace petition sent to Con­
gress did so because of their fear that
the killing off of a few thousand men
might reduce their chances of getting
one. There are women, not a thous­
and miles from this office, who would
gladly sign a petition for war if they
could thereby get rid of the man they
have been unfortuuate enough to get
possession of.

What is the good of Congress mak­
ing laws against the employment of
alien contract labor if the authorities
fail to enforce them? The question
would seem to be pertinent in view of
tbe following extract from the official
report of an inspector who has just
been through the mining section of
Pennsylvania: “I am convinced that
the letter and spirit of the alien con­
tract labor laws are'being constantly
violated by managers and operators of
the mines and by steamship agents.”

“Thinking that a word from me
might be the cause of others receiving
benefit from your S. S. S. I write to
say that I have been a sufferer from
Eczema, which my doctor called pink
heads. Small blisters would form on
my limbs, would break and ooze, and
cause large sores to form. The odor
arising would be very disagreeable,
and I would often be laid up from one
to two weeks at a time. The disease
would break out about every two
months. I tried various physicians
and treatments, but received no per­
manent relief until 1 was Induced to
try S. S. S., and felt the benefit from
it in a few days. I continued the use
of it until I had taken three bottles,
which was over a year ago, and I have
nof had the Eczema since. I believe
It Is thoroughly eradicated from my
system. I feel sure that S. S. 8. is the
greatest blood remedy, and I would
recommend it to everyone afflicted
with any form of blcod poison, for I
believe they will receive like benefits
that I have.”

was making only a mile every two hours. Tiie
weather grew colder and colder, tbe air was
full of snow coming mostly from the top* of tbe
mountains, making II utterly Impossible to see
five rods ahead. Large limb* weighted down
with a heavy burden of auow gave loose from
the tops of tiie trews and came crashing down
to earth, sometimes lighting within a few feet
of me, and II required every exertion on my
part to keep from freezing to death. My
hand* became *o cold aud numb that it was
with great difficulty that I could hold my compasx, and from tbia fact more than any other,
I lost my way. When I came to realize tbe
fact In all Ito “awfulneaa” that I waa hope­
lessly lost. I took up a position under a pro- i
jectlng rock to eat a lunch and consider tbe ■
situation. Looking at my watch I found I*,
had ceased to beat at 12 o'clock, completely
frozen up, and ho- much later It was I did
not know. I tiicu undertook to eat my lunch
but soon found I could make aa much head­
way chewing on lhe Rock uf iGlberaller. My
compass was tbe next thing to show weakness,
and in a abort time the needle stood at 111 and
refused to budge, in fart, everything around
me was . froze except myself, aud .that
seemed only a matlcr of a Mltle time. My
next plan was to back track myself to the
place of ttarting, but this proved a failure, as
tbe snow fell so fast that on geing a short dis­
tance my track became obliterated: that left
the situation “buck or doe,” with all chance*
foyoring the "buck,” however, a* tbe ball way
houae seemed in all reason to be the closest by,
I concluded to push on and do the best' I
t»uld, hoping al) tb» while that my partner
bad been more fortunate than myself; thst be
had reached the camp In safely aud would)be
able to "boot me to,” H'lle thinking be /was
baring just as serious a time aa I was, and
that he was even then engaged In dancing a
jig around a hemlock tree on tbe base of Guv
erument Peak, to keep'from freezing to death.
Night came on, tbe wind gradually quieted
down, tbe stars and moon throwed forth tbeir
| feeble light, am) found me struggling on
through deep ravines and dismal swamps, all
। tired out, and so cold that to stop for any
length of time would surely result In deathOccasionally I would fire my gun in hopes of
getting an answer, but not a sound save the
mournful boot of the owl or the popping of
the frocen timber. What a .night, aud what
a trip; no pen could ixwslbly portray it; go
which way I would I was sure to find a tangled
swamp oc a gigantic muuntafti, they were never
there before, nor are they them? now, they
were merely placed there for tbe special occa.
ston. Finally, boweyer, after boura of tedious
wandering I came to a small stream which by
certain land mark* convinced me that It wax
tbe identical one on which tbe shanty stood;
and a short walk down the strram brought me
to "the land of Beulah.” Throwing open the
door I gnxed for a moment at the small apology
for a woodpile, and then deliberately fired tbe
shanty; bad It been the While House at Wash­
ington It would have been al! the same. This
act, do doubt, saved the life of my partner;
be caught the light of tiie fire from a high ele­
vation about two miles ajyay and eventually
struggled tn more dead than alive. Tbe firxt
words the poor fellow said when he aaw me
was, "My God I You saved my life." Hl* ear*
were both frozen and his nose resembled a
boiled lobster, and in a letter recently received
from him in far of! Alaska he very solemnly
alludes to the oonflagration of the half wfy

north, the desert districts, rainless from
one year’s end to the other, present a
sandy plain, incapable of supporting life;
further south, to the center of the coun­
try, there nre wooded heights and a tem­
perate climate; still further there Is the
wet zone, with its almost impenetrable
forests, giant mountains and Iron-bound
coast. Chill is a Sahara In the north,
a California in the center, and a Norway
In the south. All districts are, however,
in one respect alike; they are all moun­
tainous. The nature of the country is
such as to render land intercourse be­
tween different towns, even when situ­
ated close together on the seacoast, a
matter often of impossibility; hence the

of nitre aggregated $33,000,000, of cop­
per $15,000,000, of silver $7,000,000, of
guano *1,500,000, while, besides other
products, 40,000,000 tons of coal were
mined and taken to market.
.
The Chilian gold mines, while numer­
ous, are not very profitable, a fact which
may be explained by lhe primitive
methods employed. After the ore has
been taken out it is placed in a hollow
previously made In a large stone. A
round bowlder having been selected, is
artificially bored, sticks are wedged in
the hole at an angle to each other, so
as to form a kind of clamp; through
these a pole is passed, and two Chilians,
astride the opposite ends, see-saw up
and down, thus rocking the bowlder and
crushing the ore. From so rude a process
any product would seem remarkable,
and the fact that the Chilian mines pay
at all with such plans of work is suffi­
cient testimony to their richness. Sim­
ilarly ineffective are the means em­
ployed in agriculture. The plowman
scratches the earth two or three inches
deep with a plow so rude in construction
that It might have been the first ever
made; the hoes resemble our mattocks;
the spades nre simply broadened shafts
pointed with iron; the oxen are har­
nessed by their horns, instead of with
yokes, to vehicles so exceedingly prim­
itive that their like is unknown else­
where. The harness of tbe horses is of
rope or rawhide, and household appli­
ances are such as might be expected
among savages instead of among the
natives of tho first country In South
America. But the Chilians themselves
are either Indians or of mingled Indian
and Spanish blood, and while in a cer­
tain way and to a certain extent they
are industrious, they lack the energy and
enterprise essential to the highest de­
gree of success.
So fnr as situation Is c ncerned, Chill
Is more fortunate than most other South
American states. In that its position ex­
empted it from the misfortunes of the
early Spanish rule. During the Spanish
occupation no gold mines were known,
and Chili did not present a field for
brilliant adventure, and although the

The Chilians are, commratively

—that is, compared w*tii the other South
American States.
They are so far
ahead of their Spanish-American breth­
ren that they have not infrequently been

Yankees, of South America. According
to tho last census, the population of
Chill was nearly 3,000,000; and a busy

The Russian railway expert, M.
Kotlubai, has just published in book
form an account of the mismanage-’
meat of Russian railways, and of the
abuses which naturally result. He
states that, owing to the immense sal­
aries paid to the higher ^officials, the.
remuneration received by the actual
working officials is so insufficient that
they would be unable to live unless
they supplemented their wages by
theft.
Despite their .low salaries,
these men are worked^aimost day and
night, only five or six hours being left
them to sleep and rest. During the.
last Turko-Russian war engineersand
firemen were forced to sleep on their
locomotives at odd moments, so In­
adequate was their number to tbe de-^
mands of the service, and switchmen'
were compelled to be or. duty twentysix, twenty-eight and thirty hours in
succession. Such inhuman overtaxing
of the strength oP men could result
only in the most defective and peril­
ously careless service, with more acci­
dents and greater loss of life than any
other country in the world.

I believe that I am not what could
actually be called superstitious, yet
slnc&lt;'. my earliest recollection I have
had opinions that differ from the ac­
cepted religious doctrln's: and such
opinions (or beliefs) aro often looked
upon as superstitious. If not wholly
ridiculous and not to be considered.
Bnt do one deliberately manufactures
his own belief—that Is something over
which he ordinarily has little more oon. trol than he has over tho original form
of his body dr the co.-or of his complex­
ion, for, like these, It Is a part of his
corporate self He ran distort his body
or paint hla face, but left alone, they
will resume their normal shajo and
color—the tame with his belief. How­
ever, one's sett'ed opinions aro some­
times completely changed by some Im­
pressive accident, -clrctimstiiice or
teaching: but this change, you will see,
ia not wrought by his own will, but by
influences that are brought to boar
upon bits The Influences by whl h we
arc surrounded Ln thn main form our
opinions, aud our character and relig­
ion are mapped out in our Intellects as
by the hand of an unseen, Incompre­
hensible destiny, a1 d we ha*ve little
thought bnt to follow tho dlrcc Ions or
promptings thereof. As tiie poet says:

In other words, the impress.'ons of
childhood bear upon one’s whole life. I
know that with me—Hal Mala—tbo im­
pressions of childhood havo hung like a
prevailing vapor over tho whole period
of my existence; i nd in every tragedy,
comedy or romance, In which 1 have
been fortunate or unfortunate enough
to participate, I have been referred
back to the dawning of ray personal
history.
Orphaned In infancy^tlid left home­
less, my childhood was spent among
strange faces, and amid perpetually
shifting scenes.
As there wa, no one to worry over my
whereabouts I went forth when 1 listed
and camo back when 1 willed.
I much frequented wild and out ofthc way places, and was often Infatu­
ated by gloomy objects that would have
been far from fascinating to other chil­
dren. Tho roar of the cataract as It
tumbled and plunged through Jagged
* gorges and the howling of tho wind m
it swoDt among tho cliffs and crags,
were my music.
I loved to wander amid the hush and
tho loneliness of woodland scenes. Tho
sighing of tho trees, tbo rippling of the
brooks, tbe quaint sounds articulated
by the small wild animals, by the
bc-Mta of tbe field and tho birds
of
tho air,
were to me well
known and welcome sounds.
Tho
wilderness was my kindergarten, and
the object-lessons It presented were
earnestly studied
I had no. steady place of habitation,
but wm taken In and taken caro of,
after a manner, by this person and by
that, for awhile —for I was continually
estray, and no one took tho pains to
hunt mo up.
Thus my Infancy and childhood passed
into youth, when childhood’s dreamy
life ended, and then my living camo by
an arduous strife with adversity.
What Information I possess wss
jjlcked up of my own accord, regardless
of schools or the pedagogue's art
I bad an early liking for letters, and
explored enterprisingly tho realm of
knowledge, although nothing like sys­
tem or order ever accompanied my
efforts.
I wm drilled to no particular trade, ro
my occupation was necessarily various,
and, aside from tho fact that it main­
tained me reasonably well, was of a sort
that boro as lu fruit more experience
than wealth.
Tbe course of my career fins'ly settled
in the channel ot itinerant Journalism,
and later into that of literature, as best
becoming a person of haphazard accompllshmenta,and roving disposition.
AH these circumstances, being of an
exceedingly miscellaneous ad uncom­
mon character, may have combined to
divert my thoughts out of any of the
approved groves of religious theory, and
to cause the Opinions now dominant
within my mind to fasten themselves
upon me; but 1 credit my belief to other

When I was a little child I held com­
munion with shadowy forms that told
me by myriad signs that they were rel­
atives of mine; souls of my pr-op'o who
had shaken off the tolls of material life
and assumed Immortal existence In the
spiritual world. Long before I knew
that they wore ghosts I followed them
about In the gloom of night and felt per­
fectly at home in their company.
I often followed these sectors to the
graveyards to witness hosts of dim forms
march and stalk about among the white
tombs; this, too, at times when other
children were coddled up lu tbeir trundle

A NOVEL BUTTERFLY.

A simple decorative novelty Is a
huge butterfly made from a Japanese
napkin and a clothespin. Crimp up
the napkin In the middle and pull it
through the slit Ip the clothespin.
Then pull out the corners of the nap­
kin and tack them up against the
wall. The tacks will be found strong
enough to hold the clothespin in
place.
Of course it will be seen that the
clothespin forms the body of the but­
terfly and the outspread paper nap­
kin tho wings. It is advisable to se­
lect as gay a napkin as possible, so
that the bright colors may add to the
brilliant butterfly effect.
It has been suggested that the
clothespin be painted or gilded, but
this seems scarcely worth while when
combinedv with anything so cheap
and common as a paper napkin. An
embroidered silk handkerchief might
be tried as a substitute, and fastened

In place with brass-headed tacks. The '
paper butterfly, properly speaking, i
should be multiplied by the dozen
and combined with myriads of Japan­
ese fans as wall ornaments. This
mode of arrangement was found quite
effective at a recent Japanese bazar.
The uncolored wood of the clothes­

than the bamboo handle of a fan.

Time was when a yoke of oxen were
considered indispensable adjuncts of
a New-England farm, but it seems
that they no longer occupy that posttlon. At the Hampden County Har­
vest Club meeting, the other day, a
fanner called attention to this fact,
saying that, a few years ago in his
town over forty yoke of cattle were
gotten together for the moving of a
church on wheels.
New scarcely a
yoke can be found there.
Oxen are
fast giving way to horses for farm’
work, and the latter arc considered
cheaper on tbe whole and ruorfe genorally useful. At the same time, a
New-England farm without a yoke of
oxen looks queer to the men of to­
day who passed tbeir boyhood tilling
the soil. So says the Boston Journal,
and it confirms the impressions of any
New-England man who knew any­
thing about a farm in boyhood. What
splendid-looking animals the oxen
used to be at a New-England fair,
and how proud the farmers used io be
of them! Some of the “solid men”
in the county were not ashamed
take a hand In a plowing matrh la

Ho noticed my astonishment, laughingly*
and motioned mo to be seated upon the

“Did you enjoy yourself?’ he asked.
“Yes" I replied, “I did; but whether
I enjoyed a dream or a reality I cannot
determine. Is this an enchanted house
where a person Is deluded into passing
through all these things, or wore those

"That means me, 1 presume." said I.
"But what," I asked, “is ths mission—
- this all mysterious mission—-that 1 have"
heard referred tow u any times within
the past few hours?”.
“It has been ordaln“-d that oin

Burton

you as you need to proceed."

When the sun had crept up Its length
or so along the firmament. Burton arose
and said that ho must leave mo for the
day, as ho had to- go to a neighboring
village on a business errand.

mission.
For an hour or so I walked around
tho lonely old place. Badly neglected
had it Loen for years. Becoming tired
at length of the dreadful dullness of tho
place, 1 sought the library, as Burton
had directed. The door had boon shut
so long that It came open with difficulty,
but finally yielded and 1 walked In.
The room was filled with easy chairs,
writing desks and various-sized book­
cases. Opening ono of tho latter, I
drew forth a quaint little volume that
had attracted my attention through the
glass front, and opeued It A small
parcel fell to tho floor. I picked this
up to see what It contained. A largo

of this rose was uniquely "attached by a
'small blue ribbon to a thick piece of

of which were written some verses,
headed with the words, “To Zeyna,"
and signed by Burton Arold. I was so
curious as to read there verses. They
were as follows:

Sweet as tbe smllo of God:

I fell to musing upon this little relic
of Button's courtship, which had been
cwt short, so he had told me, by the
death of Zeyna. But I was disturbed
presently by a slight step upou the floor.
Startled, I looked up.
Angel of light ! Dream of spiritual
loveliness! Was heaven at hand, and
was the queen thereof standing within
the gates? Thus I, Indeed, thought for
the moment
\
I had seen beauty befpre in this won­

canvas and in reality; I have seen it
since; I had seen it tho night "before

revelry; but may the beings that people

radiant spirit maiden who stood so
divinely there in that ancient and dusty
library.
My wildest most indulged flights of
Imagination were eclipsed In that face
and form. I knelt in an ecstasy of rev­
erence In the presence. Majestic and
queenly, with a slight halo about the
head; long, loosely flowing trmums; a
pale, sweet pur-. lace; tender, lustrous
eyes, that seemed to melt the very soul
with sympathy and rapture; a divinely
perfect form, molded exquisitely within
the transparent folds of a great zephyry
mantle of pure white—thus stood the
spirit before me!

Chairman Clarkson, of the Republican
National Committee:

In speaking of his wlthdrawaf Mr.
Bldlne said: “I don’t suppose any man
who has once sought the office can
truthfully say ho doesn't
care for It. I confess I
1 would like to be Presldent^ but I will never
again risk my health
and life in seeking it.
The office of Secretary
of State Is a broad
sough field for me dur­
ing the rost of my pub­
lic career."
Democrats agree with
practical unanimity that
Blaine not being in it, nothing can pre­
vent President Harrison’s rcnomlnation,
and Republican Congressmen are mostly
of the same opinion. Members of the
administration naturally will not dis­
cuss the situation for publication.
, NAVORITE SONS TO THE FRONT.
While no ono In Washington, writes
our correspondent, questions that tho
ultimate effect of Mr. Blaine's declina­
tion will be the renomlnation of Pres­
ident Harrison, the
Immediate result
will be to start up
all the favorite son
candidacies. Sena­

tation of a Cullom

nois, with some sup­
port from the new
States in tho North­
west, has already
been set forth, and

start in as an avowed candidate and will
have his name presented to the Minne­
apolis convention.
Senator Allison has
not got to this point yet, but in the end
he will probably give tho Iowa delegation
p*»rmlRHlr&gt;n tn name him. Gen. Alger, in
spite of Mlehlgan'sdlvlded electoral vote,
Is a full-fledged candidate. He may try
to rally all the disaffected antl-Harrison
elements around him, and look for votes
In New York and the East m well as In
tho South. It Is more than probable
that ex-Speaker Reed will take advant­
age of Mr. Blaine’s declination to seek
a New England delegation for himself.
Hr. Reed really has the Presidential
'
ambition and wants to
get in training for a
nomination. The only
possible candidacy that
excites much attention'
is John Sherman's. Mr.
Sherman himself is a
stanch supporter of
President H a r r 1 s o n *s
administration. But
Senator Sherman's col­
leagues say he has a noJOHX bhkumax tlon that the course of
legislation on silver and the tariff may
make him an
available candidate.
Borneo! tho Ohio politicians of the Repub­
lican faith who have been here during

sota Republicans, and it would Dot be
surprising should a vcrjMiarg*e propor­
tion, If not a majority of them, transfer
their 'allegiance to the distinguished
jurist, now that Blaine is no longer a
possibility. "
As to Senator Allison, a Des-Moines
correspondent sends a telegram, saying^
"There Is no one here who is in position
to speak for. Senator Allison, but it 1&lt;
known that when he was in Iowa during
the campaign ho spoke in terms of high
praise of the administration of Presi­
dent Harrison, and expressed himself as
favoring his renomination. His friends
in this city soy they think that there is
scarcely any question that Senator AU1son will give Harrison cordial support
for tho nomination, and that Iowa will
go to Minneapolis ready to vote for him
for renomlnatlbn."
Henry *0. Payne, Chairman of the
Wisconsin Republican State Central
Committee, said that If a new mon is to
be nominated it may bo Secretary Rusk.
Sincfe it became generally understood
that Blaine was to decline, Rusk's name,
ha says, has been very prominently men;
tloned In the East, and now with Blaine's
posaitivo withdrawal many of Blaine’s
strongest supporters, he thinks, will
favor Rusk:
Some of Senator Cullom’s friends on
being interviewed expressed themselves
os being confident that the Illinois Sen­
ator would receive the solid backing of
his State at Minneapolis, and would be
tho leading candidate before the conven­
tion. One of the Senator’s supporters
offered to bet $500 against $200 that
Senator Cullom would be nominated "at
Minneapolis and $230 more that he
would win his bet.
S.enator McMillan, of Michigan, said:
"General Algor Is now a candidate for
the Republican nomination and will go
Into the contest with tho solid delega­
tion from his own State, with support
from many other States and with a
stronger following than many people
and better chance of success than most
people think for."
It Is tho unanimous opinion among
Republicans at Indianapolis that the
letter takes Blaine entirely out of the
question ns a Presidential quantity
and leaves tho President with a practic­
ally clear field for tho party nomination.

THEY ARE NEEDED AND
WHAT THEY WILL COST.

Certainly if tbe taxpayers and especially the
real estate owners can get along without a new
court bouse, If they can afford to Lave the
record of their title* to land exposed to con­
stant danger from tire, we ought to.
Nevertheless as public spirt ted citizens we
feel that we should present the facta In the
case so dearly that none can misunderstand.
Any tax par er can visit the Countr offices and
verify or disprove wbat we say. We wtoh each
one would take the pains to do so.
It is proposed ro raise 810,000 for a jail and
844,000 for a court bouse.
Tbe jail question wc think need not be con­
sidered, so plain arc tbe facte aud the duty of
the people of Barry connty. Our present jail
has been condemned because: (!) It to not a
safe place to keep criminals in. (2) It is a
fire trap; and In case a fire should get under
way In It, the prisoners would be burned like
so many rate in a burning ship. There is lit­
erally no chance for escape. (3) Its sanitary
condition Is simply horrible. This Is due to no
fault of tbe sheriff but to lack of sewerage and
faulty construction. (4) It provides In no
proper sense for the separation of tbe sexes,
nor for keeping the younger class of inmates
apart from hardened criminals. (5) It does
notcyxnply with tbe plain provisions of the
law. For these reasons, Judge Hooker, with,
assent of the board of supen Isors wa* com­
pelled to condemn tbe jail. The present ar­
rangement of keeping prisoners at Charlotte Is

There Ifl no reason that can l&gt;e urged therefore
why the jail should not be built; there to every
reason why it should be, and so far u we know
there is no opposition to so doing.
But In tbe opinion of tbe supervisors as well
as of all who know the facte in the case, Barry
county needs a new court house fully as much
as a jail. If not more so. And If this be true,
It to certain the two can be built together
much better than to build one now and the
other later. It will reduce the cost, it will eave
money, it will secure better results.
Tbe question of vital Importance to tbe tex­
paver, and one on which be has a right to have
Information is this: Does Barry county need a
new court bouse, with fire proof offices, for the
safe keeping of her records I
We will leave out of the case the question o
public spirit and enterprise, although It could
be well maintained that 24,000 people, owning
eceordlng to tbe assessment rolls over 811.000,­
000 worth of property, should not represent
themselves and reflect their standing and spirit
by the present building on court bouse square
which to say the least is not architecturallly
imposing, nor calculated to Impress one as
Battering to a county like this.
But leave that out of the case and let us ad­
dress ourselves squarely to the question of
whether Barry county needs such a court house
as to mentioned aliove. We shall make answer
by a plain, bare statement of facts.
Btattotlca show the average life of man to be.
a little more than 34 yca/r. At death tbe prop­
ertv of the deceased Is passed upon by tbe pro­
bate court. Its records therefore vitally effect
titles to real and personal property, and partic­
ularly of that unfortunate class, the widow and
the orphan whose rights most need protection.
How is Barn- county "protecting” the rights
of these tn the hundreds of eases not dosed
up, and there always are and must be hundreds
of them! The records are kept In the second
story of a brick block, which Is flanked on tbe
west aide with a solid row of wooden buildings.
In case of a fire getUng into the building from
outside or Inside, these records could not be re­
moved to a place of safety, as any visitor to the
probate rooms can see.
The records in tbe county derk’s office vltal-

INCIDENTS

' It ifhs now been ninety-three years
since the death of George Washington.
During that long period many brilliant
reputations have shone upon us lor
awhile, only to fade away and lapse Into
oblivion.
His name, retains oil its
interest for us, and probably more peo­
ple have been particularly occupied of
late with his career, its relics and its
rooortls, than ever J&gt;efore.
At. the great Bale of Washington meineuUM, held in Philadelphia, the prices
paid even for trifling objects once pos­
sessed by the great man and his family
■were extraordinary.
A legal document relating to the ex­
ecution of his will, which his hand had
never touched, brought fifty dollars, and
an autograph letter eighty-five.
A list of his slaves, written aud signed
by his own hand, brought foua hundred
and fifty dollars. Two of hia memo­
randum books closely written brought
right hundred dollars. JHis family. Bible
twas sold for seven hundred and sixty
MoHars, nnd books from his library, con­
taining his signature or that of his wife,
kummajjdod prices varying from sixty
.dollars to ono hundred and fifty Hollars
- Jtach.
। Pieces of piano music which had been
xiiayed by Miss Custis brought consid­
erable sums, and a dinner invitation was
|sold for eighteen dollars.
j The Bale attracted universal attention,
&gt;«nd every one lamented that the whole
collection had not been bought by Conigress and deposited at Mount Vernon,
‘where It could have been seen by every
pilgrim to that aacrod shrine.
! There is a special reason for this vivid
survival of his celebrity, apart from bis
hoi vices to ids country and his singu­
larly varied anil interesting career.
From his boyhood to tho last week of
|hi.&lt;j life bo was a profusu writer. Ab
'soon os ho could write well enough, he
| kept a book into which ho copied any­
; thing that pleased or impressed him in
।his reading, and carefully entered bis
early cipherlugs und surveys in a book
I that is preserved to the present day.
During his first journey In tho wilderineesof Virginia, when ho was but 16,
■ ‘he kept a pretty full journal of its
• events, though the task could not have
| been easy on -such a tramp.
In a similar way, but Ln greater deItail, ho recorded his early marches and
I campaigns, one of which was published
(both in England and America.
.
From the day when he took command
of tho revolutionary army at Cambridge,
his own letters and orders, his reports to
Congress and other official documents
are the imperishable record of his public
actions, as well as the most correct ex­
. hi bition of his character.
His own writings must ever remain
tthe truest record of his life. Nothing
can refute or supersede them. Hltreon.fldentlal letters to his brother, to his
'bocretary. to his steward and to his serv­
ants, as wall os the more formal epistles
addressed to the President of Congress,
all tell tho same story and exhibit the
same man, one who was Intent on dis­
charging every trust, and fulfilling every
duty with punctuality aud completeness.

The people of these United States this
year celebrate the ono hundred and six­
tieth annlvor«ary of George Washing­
ton's birth. Every intelligent nnd pat­
riotic citizen will recall with pride tho
influence of his triumphs In war, his accompliahments as the firstlPresldent of
the Republic, his superb character as a
man.
*
The visible results .of the policy In­
augurated under his executive approval
are marvelous. Thirteen States formed
Ids confederacy, all of them purely agri­
cultural. Since the Continental regime
they have become the foremost region
&lt;of the world in the variety and volume
of their manufactures through the unexjampltd fertility of invefftive genius.
He stands 1 he noblest leader who was
'ever intrusted with his country’s life,
illis patience under provocation; his
.calmness in danger, .and lofty courage
when all others despaired; his prudent
delays when the Continental Congress
was imperative and the staff almost in­
cubordinate, and his quick resistless
blows when action waa possible; -his
magnanimity to his defamers and gen­
erosity to his foes; his ambition for his
country and unselfishness for himself;
his solo desire tho freedom and inde­
pendence of America, and his only wish
to return after victory to private life and
the peaceful pursuits und pleasures of
home, have all combined to make him,
2,y tho unanimous judgment of the
world, the foremost figure of his­
tory. Not so abnormally developed in
any direction oa to bo called a genius,
yet he was tho strongest, because tho
Jbest balanced, the fullest rounded, the
most even, and most self-masterful- of
flnen—the Incarnation of common scuse
and moral purity, of action and repose.
The Republic will llvo so long as it
koveros the memory and emulates the
■virtues of George Washington.

It is painful to find that the^father of
Ila country practiced deceit down in
Jersey. Ellas Boudlnot, whose papcra
are getting printed, reveals this side of
Washtagton'a character. He actually
played a trick on Sir William Howe, and
made him believe he hail 12,000 men in
his array about Morristown, when he
had but 3,000.

It aeems that Howe had sent one of
his innumerable •pie®. who were Tories

Morriatown. The adjutant genera!

Washington if he would not have him

In the little old house in Charles
street, Fredericksburg, Ya., Washing­
ton's mother, who was In her day a fa­
mous cook and housewife, was at times
fond of giving a ‘small dance and din­
ner party."
There, “on tho waxed floor of the
front room, lighted by numerous can­
dles," the belles and beaux of other days
“did dance righto merrily." In a diary,
now worn and yellow by age, one bright­
eyed belle tells:
My petticoat wax at flowered Peach aatln,
with lonc-walitod Coat of White, A lace
Kerchief waa gathered round my Shoulder*,
and my Arms were tare to tbo Elbows. A
string of Milk-white Pearls did Un around
my throat. My hair I had high, and pleas­

Old Mr. L-------, one of the neighbors,
happening to drop in one morning while
Mrs. Washington was busy in her dairy,
was requested to come there If he cared
to speak with her. He entered, found
Mrs. Washington with skirts turned up
and sleeves rolled, busy with tho freshmade butter, which she was molding in
a wooden tray.
“For you know, Mr. L------- ," she said,
briskly, “my tongue and my hands may
bo employed at tbo sama time without
loss."
It is related of John Adams that when
Stuart exhibited his portrait of General
Washington, Mr. Adams went to. see it.
After gazing at it for several minutes ho
exclaimed:
“Thstto the portrait of a man who
knew how to Itold his tongue, which this
old fool never did!"

gaged In a rough and tumble fight,
Washington leaped his horse over tho
bars ot the camp-fence, dashed among
rioters, threw himself off, seixed two
brawny riflemen by the throat, and
shaking them at arm’s ichgui, subdued
not only them but the whole band.
It was the victory due to commanding
strength, preeoooe and mannflb. Tho
men saw that they must obey and they

It was almost midnight when he
came slrtwly up the three flights of
stairs leading to the editorial rooms
and knocked timidly at the door.
“Come in," called out the city ed­
itor, without looking up from his
writing.
He came in slow)/, a tall, middle­
aged man, too thinly clad for such a
cold and stormy night. His wrists
and hard bony tuiuds siiowed red and
Iwe beneath the sleeves of his thin
and ragged old coat. He had an hon­
est but Ignorant face and an awkward,
embarrassed air. He pulled off his
old hat and held it in both hands,
while he asked:“Is it too late to get a little notice
put into the paper to-night, mister?"
“No; guess not," replied the report­
er. “Got it written?"
He pointed to a table near his own
desk, and the man sat down before It.
He took the pencil between his stiffcned fingers, bit at the end of it
while in meditation, drew the pad of
paper toward him, and began to
write.
But he made slow and seemingly
painful work of IL He crossed out a
word here and there and his hand
trembled strangely.
Once he fur­
tively drew his nigged sleeve across
his eyes. Then he turned to the editor
and said, in a tone of troubled hesi­
tation and appeal:
“I—I—don’t want to trouble you

If you—you —had time to —to—

Something in the man's tone and
manner touched the editor’s heart,
and, busy as he was, he said:
.
“I’ll write it for you if»there isn’t
too much of it.”
“Only three or four lines, sir."
“Oh, .a notice of a meeting, perhaps,
ar something of that sort?”
“No, sir; a notice of a—a—” the
man’s voice died away to a whisper,
his chin dropped to his swelling chest,
his whole frame trembled, as he said,

kindly and with genuine sympathy.

object apparently worthless, is certainly

which gives bread, to many
thousands of people. Even though tho
shadow of fashion’s frown fall at pres­
ent over the button, it is anything but
an Insignificant article.
The ancients do not appear to have
made use of the button, except, perhaps,
to fnsten the drapery of women’s tunics
on the shoulder or arms; or to connect
the two square pieces of the tunic near
the nock.
Brass buttons were frequently uaed
by the soldiers to fasten a kind ol cloak
on the right shoulder. In England, they
were worn probably more for ornament
tlmn use in the tenth century; they
were generally mode &lt; f gold or silver,
and were of foreign manufacture. The
button, then, is a comparatively recent
introduction into common use.
The dies for stamping metal buttons
are rated among the highest objects of
the die-sinker's and medalist's art. lu

To think of 1,000 in a year produced
by dint of sb much effort and ability, and
remember that bufton-dics arc among
the highest productions of the att, can­
not but elevate one's respect for buttons.
The first step to take then in follow­
ing throughout the history of a button,
says the Chicago Tribune, will be to line!
out what Is this steel die so much heard
of and so seldom seen, except by those
who go to seek it. It is a block of metal,
round or square, as may happen, four or
five Inches in height and raj^er smaller
at the top than pt the bottom. The steel
selected must be of moderately fine
grain and uniform texture, and when
polished must show no spots or patches
under a magnifying glass. After being
forged into rough blocks tho size nnd
shape mentioned the steel is made as
soft as possible by careful annealing­
being immersed- In a pot of, coarsely
pounded animal charcoal, then heated
to a cherry red and allowed to cool
gradually.
Next it is “faced up" flatly and smooth­
ly !i n lathe, and tbe engraver takes it
in hand. He first sketches his pattern
upon it from tho drawing before him
with a pencil. Then ho begins engrav­
ing with the hard, sharply pointed steel

to restore the minutest chip when the
stroke has gone too deep. He works
out tho Images ot tho pattern, obverse
and reverse, in Intaglio for the upper
matrix, and embossed or in bas-relief
for the lower. When, after repeated
impressions upon clay from time to time
they tre found correct, the matrices are
ready to be hardened.
This process is simple enough when
plain steel is to lie operated upon, but
is critical when a delicate engraving is
to be preseived Intact. Any defect in
the mode of conducting it may ruin the
labor of many weeks. It resembles the

tbe application of high heat, hut In this
it is cooled quickly to produce the de­
sired hardness, while in the other it was
cooled slowly.
Each matrix is first treated to a coat­
ing of oil and animal charcoal or of
lampblack and Jinseed oil. Then they
are placed fa«e downward in a crucible
filled with the charcoal and burned.After the cherry-red heat is attained
they are taken out with a pair of tongs,
plunged in a large vessel of cold water,
moved about rapidly till the spluttering

To increase ita strength it is

NOTES FROM OUR SCHOOLS-

The second primary department Ob­
served Washington's birthday. An
appropriate program was carried out,
and the room gaily decorated with the
national colors. About twenty guests
were present.
The following program will be ex­
ecuted in the high school room by the
members of the literary society next
Friday evening. A white money col­
lection will be taken at tbe door.
Washington's birthday was observed
in the Grammar rooms with appro­
priate decorations, mottoes, etc., to­
gether wjth a program consisting of
recitations, essays, national songs and
debate, “Resoh'ed, that Washington
was a greater gefieral than statesman.”
A number of visitors were present.
Washington’s birthday was cele­
brated in tbe flrat primary under tbe
direction of Miss Felghner. The ex­
ercises were so arranged that, not­
withstanding the age of the pupils,
there is no doubt that a lasUng imeresslon was made. The room was
andsouiely decorated and the black
boards were filled with mottoes, quo­
tations from Washingrun and an exact
copy of life, home and the identical
George, cherry tree and hatchet.
About thirty-five visitors.
The intermediatedenartment united
in commemorating the birth of our
country's father. The second inter­
mediate room, where the exercises
were held, was decorated In national
colors and adorned with mottoes from
the sayings of Washington. Between
forty and fifty patrons of the schools
gathered to listen to the children.
The program was well rendered and
showed that no little skill and labor
had been exercised in preparing it.
Two selections were repeated by re­
quest and others received generous ap­
plause. Surely, with such patriotism,
these little people will in the future
be an honor to our nation.

SOME LATE

wm 170. and one day SIS were klMod,
which is believed to be the largest
day’s work of the sort ever done in
this country." Forty years latyr,
over 1,800,000 head of cattle were
slaughtered annually in Chicago,
two

the
largest
houses
each
killing
an
average
of
1.600, daily. This marvelous increase
in tho business at Its principal cfenter
is a fair index of the growth of tho
cattle industry throughout the coun­
try.
Fifty years ago the entire regie
west of the one-hundredth meriora
was put dowtf on the maps partly as
“Unexplored Region,” and the remaindyr as the “Groat American
Desert..* Tho few hardy explorers
and trappers who penetrated its soli­
tude found there in places great herds
of bison grazing on tbe short, crisp
grass. To-day,, the entire region, from
the
Mississippi
River to tho
Pacific Ocean, Is as thoroughly e»
plored and as accurately mapped
as the Atlantic States; the bison has
given placd" to domesticated cattle,
ruote than thirty million head of
which grqze west of th&lt;t Mississippi.
A thousand head of fat beeves .may
be taken from •the sage-brush lands
of Montana by rail to New York, and
thence by steamer to Liverpool in
less time than was formerly require^
to move the same number ’ from the
pastures of Ohio to the Eastern mar­
kets. The improvement in quality
has more than kept pace with the
increase in the magnitude of the
business. Tbe American cattle of
fifty years ago were mostly “natives,”
the descendants of pioneer Importa­
tions degenerated by promiscuous
and aimless interbreeding, until all
race cluiracteristics were lost. As
late .us 1849 of the cattle slaughtered
in Chicago, already referred Us the
very best dressed carcasses averaged
only 660 pounds net—about two-thirds
the present maximum. But a great
change has been wrought through
the interest in'fine, pure-bred cattle.
Breeding improved cattle is a busi­
ness of greatest Importance, which is
pursued by a host of keen-witted,
enterprising men; farmers of the

Un Industry of the United States has
experienced a growth and develop­
ment as wonderful as that of any
other branch of American enterprise.
Fifty years ago the great plains and
parks of the West, which now con­
tribute so largely to the beef supply,
Were grazed only by herds of wild
bison. Cattle raising for beef, or the
dairy, was confined to the seaboard
and Middle States. In fact, for
many of the earlier ycani of the I
5.period Ohio was the leading State in
this business. Nearly all the cattle
of those years, says a writer in the
American Agriculturist,, were “na­
tives* of no pirlictilar breed. True,
a few enterprising gentlemen had im­
ported and bred from fine improved
stock, but such breeding was gener• ally, looked upon as an expensive
amusement for the rich, rather than
a steady and profitable busipesS for
the farmer. Of the pure-bred cattle
of that day the Shorthorn was the
leading breed in point of numbers
and popularity as it has continued to
Iks ever since. The Devops had been
introduced still earlier, and had
many admirers; a few • Hero*
fonts had, been quite recently
imjwrted by W. H. H. Sotham and
Erastus Corning, and a limited num­
ber of Dutch cattle were owned and
bred by L G. Morris, near New York
City. Ayrshlres were imported In
1831, and. during the subsequent ten
years, had become deservedly popular

CUTTING DOWN THE BOY.

I was driving along a highway in
Wood County, Ohio, with a man wjjo
was selling farming machines to farm­
ers, and about 2 o’clock in tby after­
noon we came along to a district
school house. The schoal-ma’am and
about twenty scholars stood under an
elm tree, about forty feet high, near
the house, and in the topmost
branches of the tree ^is a boy about
14 years old.
*
“Anytiling wrong here?” asked my
friend, as we halted before the door.

“I won’t."

Description of the Monument to Bo Ereet-

Some time in the month of. June,
1893, while the World’s Fair ait Chi­
cago is in progress, a memorial will

be unveiled at Waldheim Cemetery
in honor of the five Anarchists who
were executed for complicity In the
Haymarket rloL The design bears
throughout the stamp of originality,
and as a work of art is striking in Its
effect. On the face of the base are
Spies' last wo.rds: “Our silence will

be." Bronze medallion busts of the
live Anarchists will ornament the
lateral faces of the plinth. The
monument will
*’* *be seventeen feet
high, built throughout in tbe most
suitstantlal manner. The funds to
pay for it already amount to over
84,000.

In Constantinople the Mohamme­
dan Mosque of Sofia is pervaded al­
ways by a strong smell of musk. In
oftler to supply this perfume, which
was freely* mixed with the mortar
and cement which £&gt;und together the
stones, thousands and thousands of
the musk antelope were slaughtered.
Thus, tfhile one stone is left upon
another of this ancient and interest­
ing building, the odor of musk must
remain to refresh or annoy Its visit­
ors, according-as the sense is affected.
A Kentucky paper tells of seven

An authority on advertising says:
“When you expect an advertisement
to create business, word It for busi­
ness. An advertisement has no life
in Itself—It depends for its efficiency
upon the vigor with which you en­
dow It. When you word an adver­
tisement, remember that the public
Judges your business in a measure by
the method y€u use; therefore, avoid
copying other people’s ideas. When
you seek a medium for advertising,
remember that tbe character of the
journal often colors the value of the
advertiser. When an eye first sees
your advertisement it may appeal to
the eye only; it is only in repeated
efforts that advertising reaches lu
object—the customer.*

VHAPTKR Vl-ConUnurd.

He seemed convln ed of tho truth of
this and brought out tho paper, an old,
Umt^rorin copy of a Now York dally. I
scanned thia iloaely, and in th? marine
intcllfgonco saw a marked paragraph.
"Wrjccked. —The schooner Morning
Star, on tho F orlda coast, in a gale The
111-fa led vessel7 was bound from London
to New Orleans All Ilves s jv. d but the
first mate, two seamen and a passenger,
who having heroically stayed on board
to tho last helping off the others, were
swamped.In- the last boat half way be­
tween the wrock and the shore. Tho
passenger lost was one A.bort F. Arold.
who was bound for Auurcn to Join his
wife and child in cue of the Southern
States.”
After reading this a thought slruck
me. Burton Arold’s mother had beofi
an El Mu?aand hadunarried In England
while on a visit , to re stives in that
country. Could she bo tho one whose
husband was thought to have descried
her, and was the Albert F. Arold men­
tioned lu the paper h- r husband coming
to her? I found out hy further
contersat’on with the negro that
the inllla’s in the narao of the
senora's husband were A. F.; so
1 settled my mind upon this point, and
came to the conclusion, from tho old
man's story, that the phantom lady was
no other than Burton's sweetheart; also,
that the people of the villa bad consid­
ered Burton's icglt'macy as resting under
a cloud, and that for Ibis reason the
match between him and the fair Ze.-na
had been opposed and thwarted by the
young lady's parent*.
The sun wa* fcttliu In a blaze of gtold
•nd emera d and purple, throwing Its
many tinted I ghts up against the few
slight c'ouds that were floating lazily
along tho sky, and a gent'o Gulf breeze
Just stirred to a tremble tho .ripe leaves
upon tbe trees, as 1 left the n«gro'a_
shanty and started musingly back toward
the solemn villa.
I had partaken of supper at the ex­
slave’s humble board, and had learned
much of tho Montlnnl history "from his
honest Up*—much more'tban I need*tell
heye.
Engaged in deep thought, I strolled
on toward tho gloomy old house. It was
growing dusk when I reached tho shad­
ow of the building. I entered, went up
stairs and sat down upon an antique sofa
at the end of the hall near a large
double window where I could look out
upqp tho fields and country beyond, and
watch them as they slowly disappeared
In the deepening gloom of night hi the
hush and listlessnes* of tho place and
the'influence of the soothing darkness
X fell into a pleasant sleep.

Words, warm with tho eloquence and
ecstasy of lore and of woe, addressed in
a wild, passionate- vehemence, by a
manly voice rto the phantom lady, so I
surmised), echoing tnrough tho grim old
house, startled me from my sleep. I
arose and started down the hall, but
•topped midway as I saw tho library
door swing open and Burton step for­
ward. His face was pale and set as If
his foul within were wrenched with a
pa:n*of sorrow so deep and unspeakable
as to exen render emotion inanimate
'and stilL I know by his looks that his
Shantom sweetheart had appeared to
Im, and that the reieo which had
•wakened me was his. He strode for­
ward to tho lauding of the stairs, then
suddenly stopped. How grand he looked
there tn tho hall, standing so erect and
solemn In the moonlight! No bronze
statue standing lone and stately upon
Its marble pedc tai, in ancient ruin, in
the shadow of princely grandeur, could
have presented a m &gt;ro striking picture.
Inmost expected to hear another- out­
burst of eloquence, accompanied by
some spiritualistic manifestation "wilder
•nd more beautiful than I hod yet seen;
but instead, a groan echoed from the
•tatuo-likc Term and it began to totter
forward. I leaped to Burton's side Just
in time to save him from a precipitate
fa'I down the stairway, and to convey
him down its dark and crazy flight out
into the air.
“Is that you, Hal?” ho asked. I an­
swered* affirmatively.
“Did you see, her?” was his next ques­
tion. I replied ahat I had seen no one,
having been as'eep tn the ball until
awakened by his voice.
We both sat down on the front v&lt; randa railings and taking out cigars smoked
them In silence. Burton brooding and
dreaming, and I wondering what would
come next It must nave been late in
the evening when the silence was first
broken It had become tedious, and I
ventured to a-k Burton what the subject
of bls profound med tation could be.
Pointing toward a wooded dell a half
mile away, which 1 could just faintly
discern through the moonlight, be an­

GOING TO A MADHOUSE.

AT THEIR FACE VALUE.

TWO MILLIONS GONE.

THE FATE OF THE NOTORIOUS
SARAH ALTHEA TERRY.

At a fashionable, evening gathering
a philosophical matron said: "Ono
reason why so many of our American
marriages turn out badly is because
vanity is at the bottom of them.
Men don’t marry for real companion­
ship, nor for any valuable qualities of
mind and soul which they may per­
ceive in a woman, but in order to be­
come the owner of a pretty wife.
What a senseless worship of lovely
'faces! What a metamorphosis of the
world qf affection Into the domain of
dolldom! A spell is set upon.the
homely girl, while her pretty sister,
no matter how vapid and vacant her
mind, how shrewish her disposition,
how waspish and arrogant she may
be, Is swarmed about by men. It
should matter very little to a man
bow plain bls wife may be if she has
the. qualities of .noble womanltbod.
The wise man has'no desire to ex­
hibit a pretty doll to the-public gaze,
to be congratulated as the husband
•of a pretty'wife, to be told twenty
times a day tbat his wife is the hand­
somest woman In town. Bah! 1
have no patience with these men
folks: but, oh, how I do rub my
palpis together when I read of the
cuttings up of the tricky little wood­
en dolls which become malielons the
moment age-or ailment rubs the ruddy
color from their waxen faces.”
Within ten minutes a curious illus­
tration of the subject was given.
Two girls sat with their backs to me.
The rear view of their figures dis­
closed a close similarity In graceful
outlines. Each creature was a beauty
in symjnetry, and each wore a dress
which completed the perfection of
her contlguaratl m. They were as
like as twins tn their shapeliness, but
not in their behavior. One sat mo­
tionless. Not tbe faintest shrug of a
rounded shoulder, not a sway of the
slim waist, not a wag of the dainty
head broke the complete inactivity.
She was silent, too, except for a few
pointless, witless and even inappro­
priate monosyllables in response to
what was sjild to her. Her duplicate
in shape was contrastingly vivacious.
She talked, not only fluently, but
there was uncommon wit and humor
In her remarks, while her voice wins
musical, and her tody, as observed
from behind, was inst inct with panto­
mimic eloquence. What puzzlvd me
was the fact that the six men who
stood in front of those girls wore
giving about 80 per cent, of their
heed to life nearly dumb a.*.d quite
inert one, and proportionately dis­
regarding the brainy one. As soon
as might be, the writer went rot nt
to the front. The reader has-already
guessed the mystery. The girl of
mind had an ugly face, while the girl
of mere matter had a positively
beautiful visage.—New York Sun.

DISASTROUS FIRE AMONG NEW
ORLEANS STORES.

Sarah Althea Terry, who gained such
notoriety by her divorce suit against exBcnator Sharon and her subsequent
marriage with Judge Terry, has bechmo
insane over spiritualism. She has been
very eccentric over since Terry ’fb®

fact that the court held Naegio blame­
less drove her nearly Insane, and this
feeling was aggravated by troubles
which she had with her attorney In
Fresno. • She claimed thia attorney
made love to her and she produced sev­
eral amatory letters he had written.
This enraged him, and when she called
at bls office to get her law papers ho
brutally ejected her. To tho disgrace
ot the Fresno courts they held that his
action was justifiable.
The doctor says it is a clear case of
dementia duo to worry over her affairs
and dabbling in spiritualism. She sits
for hours In one place with a pocket
handkerchief rolled up and placed to her
ea'r like the holder of a tel-phone. She
says she.gets all kinds of messages

tho handkerchief to u roodrter who saw

Porter Ashe, whom she says she loves
dearly, a« his father was a Losom
friend of Terry in early days and was
arrested and confided by a vigilance

•Ince’thdn she has been almost constant­

Some months ago Mrs. Terry reported

TO IMPROVE THE MISSISSIPPI.

OLD-FASHIONED BLACK BREAD.

At New Orleads two millions ef money
went up In smoko the other night by the
destruction of a large retail dry goods
establishment in the city. The scene of
the fire, says a diapatch, was in Canal
street, the principal thoroughfare of the
city, at the point where it is lilterBected
by Bourbon. Schwartx's establishment,
a commanding structure and but recent­
ly completed, occupied the corner of
Canal and Bourbon. It was a four-story
building, with mansard roof—a brick,
stone, and iron edlllce, surmounted by a
high clock tower. At 10:15 o'clock a
waiter In Moreau’s restaurant,, on the
opposite side ofCankl street, perceived a
small tongue of flame licking its way,
along the cornice of the . roof and
hastened to give the alarm. The dejMirtment responded promptly, but ex­
perienced great difficulty in getting to
work, and the whole edifice was ablaze
before a stream could be brought to bear
upon it.
The flames spread backward to Kraus
Bros.’ establishment and across Bour­
bon street to Clouverius’ drug store
simultaneously, and the department
found Itself In a moment powerless to
cope with the destroyer. A general
alarm and then a repeated general alarm
were sent In, and suburban engines
•were pressed into service. Backward
the fire spread to Hoffman's, to the left
it attacked Wcrlein's, and crash fol­
lowed crash as the falling roofs over­
burdened the floors beneath, already
laden with stocks of merchandise, and
each gave way In turn until the Interior
fixtures of the stores and their contents
were plied In a blazing heap on the
ground.
On the opposite side of Bourbon street
Clouverius’ building was the first to eollapse, ana it carried with It the walls of
Dunkel's establishment. McCloskey's
confectionery establishment was a mass
of seething flame, and Kreger's build­
ings were also burning fiercely. But
the Nickel-Plate shoe store intervened
to save the main entrance to D. H.
Holmes* immense establishment in Ca­
nal street, and that portion of the store
was but little damaged.
•Schwartz’s qtock, valuq^l at over $500,­
000, was Insured for $363,000, and the
building for $35,000, considerably below
Its value. Holmes" stock vqis insured
fdr tw*lce as much," but tho damage to It
is not thought to be so great. Clouverlus-carriod $8,000 insurance on ttock and
the others were insured in proportion.
Every insurance company In the iclty
has about an equal share of the loss.
The risks have been divided. Most of
the buildings were newly erected and
considered separate and excellent risks.
The individual losses, so far as they can
be ascertained, arc as follows:

wheat that were the most useful and
nourishing. It seems strange, in this
enlightened time, that more scien­
tific attention, as well as common
sense, is bestowed on the manufac­
ture of beer than that of bread. In
Germany the brewer so hardened as
to adulterate beer is immediately Im­
prisoned and is reviled by his fciends
and the public, but so long js he uses
no poisonous substances a baker may
adulterate his bread with impunkv.
-Wheat and water contain,a accord­
ing to a prominent Englislpphysician,
ail the elements neoessary for man.
Besides lime, salts and phosphoric
acjd, the creators of nerve, bone, and
tissue, the fat, cellulose and cereollne are removed from wheat in the
present processes of flour-making for
the sake of procuring a perfectly
white bread. To remedy this It would
be necessary to entirely change the
fashion, but jve need not go back to
black bread, such as ourgrandparenLs
were so familiar with. Wlffli our
present knowledge of bread making
it would be easy to perfect a machine
that would thoroughly pulverize every
part of the bran so as to avoid its ir­
ritating tendencies. Until that is
done we must use stimulating food,
which wfll imperfectly supply the
lack of the necessary elements which
we remove from wheat tour. In
doing this we at the same time un­
duly increase the heJbt act-ion and
adbrten our lives proportionally.
This question has received the care­
ful consideration of London scientists
and a whole-wheat bread is made
there which, if it was Introduced
among the bread-eating public, would
completely revolutionize the present
bread-making system and the life of
man would be lengthened.

After hearing from engineers, officers
of the government, and delegations ap­
pointed to lay tho matter before Con­
gress, the Senate Committee on Com­
merce has decided to recommend the
adoption of a most liberal policy for the
improvement of the great internal wate»way furnished by the Mississippi River.
It was decided that the bill recently in­
troduced by Senator Gibson, of Louis­

Critic*] Condition.

Winter wheat has not yet passed be­
yond the critical state, and the next few
weeks may make considerable chiages
in tho situation. An authentic report

In nilnois the outlook Is at present
encouraging. From 47 per eent. of tho
correspondents come reports that, the
crop Is In first-class condition. In an
additional 30 per cent, of tho State the
condition, while not qult0 up to a full,
average, is still very fair. Not qbito one
correspondent In five gives H10 condition
as poor. The causes that have brought
about this poor qpndition In these coun­
ties is the same that existed at the. last
report in wheat, namely, thV dry fall and
the failure of much of the grain to
come up.
t
In Indiana the condition at this time
Is somewhat better than in Illinois.
Some of the wheat is reported as weak,
but not more than 21" per cent, of the
correspondents report the condition as
poor. On the other hand, neariv 60 per
cent, declare the outlook as good, and In
the. other sections It is fair.
The standard of condition in Ohio is
below that of Indiana, 40 per cent, of the
correspondents returning the outlook as
good. About 45 per cent, give tho con­
dition as fair, and the others as poor. In
some of the counties the snow has gone,'
and tho freezing and thawing may have
a very bad effect on the grain, especially!
where the condition la low.
In Michigan 75 per cent of the corre­
spondents report tho condition as good,
20 per ce»L report fair, and only 5 per
cent. poor. In many of the counties tho
■wheat has been covered with snow tho
greater part of the winter, and in the
other counties was covered during the
coldest weather that ws have had.

NO HABITATION-

There can be no habitation in the
blood or txxly for poisonous microbes
when Swift's Specific enters the sys­
tem. It changes the character of the
blood so that the germs must either
perish or get out. and of course they
leave. S. S. S. also forces out the poi­
son which the microbes have left be­
hind. If there is a sore or ulcer tbe
poison comes out through that, other­
wise through the skin.
"Having Buffered much from con­
tagious blood poison, after using half
a dozen bottles of Swift’s Specific, I
was restored to perfect health, abd all
eruptive sores disappeared. You are
at liberty to make any use of my state­
ment that you wish.—J. Crosby By­
ron. 208 Third Avenue, Pittsburg,

A Sample Ticket and Something. About the
Manner of Voting.
All candidates’ names shall be
printed on one sheet, the ballots to
be uniform size and of the same qual4tv and color ot paper, and thick
enough to prevent the printing from
being distinguished from the back,
....
............of
»____
...aK —.. -•
The. names
candidates
of&lt; each part,'
shall be' in one column with the
proper heading. The commissioners
print at least two ballots for each
election according to tbe vote of the
last election. They also supply rub­
ber stamps bearing an X mark with
necessary ink pads, at least two
stamps for every booth.
On the opening of the polls at 8
o’clock in the morning, a gate-keeper
Is appointed by the board. The chair­
man of thq board then for the first
time opens the package containing
the ballote, carefully preserving the
seal in so doing. He takes fifty of
the ballots and turning them oyer,
puts his initials on the back of them.
Tbe gate-keeper admits as many elec­
tors to the room as there are booths.
An inspector delivers one of the fifty
ballots to the voter and offers such ex­
planations as may be required by the
elector on how to vote. The elector
takes nis ballot into a lxx&gt;th and in
the column headed with the name of
his party, and under the name of it he
stamps with the marker provided for
that purpose. If he puts no other
marks on the ticket that means he
has voted for all the candidates 'n
that column. In other words he votes
a straight ticket. Should he want to
vote for some candidate on an oppo­
site ticket, he must erase the name of
the candidate on his own ticket and
put the X mark opposite the name of
the candidate he does vote for run­
ning on tbe opposite ticket. He then
folds bls ticket in such a way tbat no
one can sec foi whom he has voted
and so that tbe initials are exposed
on the back, and so delivers the same
to an inspector, who deposits it in the
ballot box* Should an elector expose

his ticket to the view of others, the
inspectors must reject his ballot and
opposite his name on the poll list
note the occurence and then that
elector is barred from voting at all at
that election.
Un

If a mnn
manrannnt
cannotrwnrl
readnr
or isnh
physically
unable to mark his ballot, be may
have the assistance of two of the in­
spectors who may enter the booth
with him and mark the ballot as di­
rected by the elector, but it is unlaw­
ful for the inspector or anybody else
to solicit the voter or persuade him as
to how he shall vote. They merely
act for the disabled person In a cler­
ical capacity.
If by any accident a voter should
happen to sippl 1 a ballot, he should re­
turn that ballot to the Inspector who
preserves It and must account for it,
When the votes are being counted,
any ballot not marked with the ini­
tials of the inspector and which bears
distinguishing marks and mutilation,
shall be void and not counted, and no
ballot is counted from which it is Im­
possible to toll the elector’s choice of
candidates. No person is allowed to
take a ballot from the polling room,
or to have one outside for any purpose.
When the election is over the board of
Inspectors of the election preserve the
unused ballots as well as the spoiled
ones. The chairman of each political
party shall appoint for tbe election
what is known as a challenger, and
this challenger is appointed to a place
with tbe inspectors, where he has
ample facilities for making his chal­
lenges. It is also the duty of inspec­
tors to challenge such persons as they
know are not qualified to vote.
According to the provisions of the
new law, it will be necessary for the
parties to have their caucuses a week
or ten days earlier than heretofore,
that time may be given in which to
print the tickets and have them

ROUTS RHEUMATISM.

Mr. Charles Lawrence, of Ashland,
Nebraska, desires that sufferers from
Rheumatism should know his experi­
ence with S. S. S., and writes under
date of July 27. 1891, that he was a
(treat sufferer from acute rheumatism
or more than six months. He had
quite a number of physicians to treat
him, and also took other medicines,
without any permanent benefit. A
friend told him to try S. S. S. He did
so, and used only four bottles, which
cuJed him sound and well. He recom­
mends it th all who suffer from rheu­
matism. Rheumatism has been con­
ceded to be a trouble in the blood, and
we have numbers of reports from the
most reliable people in the country
that it has cured the most aggravated
cases. We certainly recommend every
sufferer to send for our treatise on
blood and skin diseases, which will be
mailed free. Address,

REBELS DEPOSE THE GOVERNOR.
Winning a Victory.
Rebellion ha* broken Ont In Cera. Brazil,
and Gen. Clarlnd*. tho Governor, has been
deposed. A force of studout* and discon­
tented soldiers recently attacked Clarlod*
residence with cannon, which they handled
with much effect. The place was defended
byJoyal citizens and police. After a des­
perate battle of thirteen flours the Gov-

surgents triumphantly entered and took
poseeuim. Fourteen persons were killed
during the assault on the Governor’s resi­
dence and a largo number of both forces
were wounded, many of them very serious­
ly. When the insurgent succeeded in de­
feating the defenders of the building they
at once deposed the Governor and assumed
controMkif affairs in the province.

•A rumor has been current at City of

will be a resort to the dueling code by two

The principals are Herr Curl Daenzcr, ed­

originated in an editorial paragraph In tho

Now the object Is to keep as far away
as the efficient fighting range of each
battery will allow, but under no condl-

tion to approach pie enemy within 400
yards. This is the danger limit of tho
deadly torpedo. Ab a last resort ramrulng is often attempted, but the superior
maneuvering qualities of modern vessels
rentiers this a very hazardous under­
taking.
I will give briefly In this sketch, writes
W. Nephew King In the Ifew York Press,
the preparations for battle that each
commander of a United States vossei is
instructed to make according to the Oninance Department ut the navy. Of
course the many types ot ships now in
axtetance will give more or leas latitude
for a dtephty of discretion, but there are
certain general rules which must be dbaervad in all war ships.
The battle call was formerly the
"boatswain's pipe," followed by the
order. “Ail hands clear ship for action."
The eIpcttic gong has entirely super- I
eedod this now, however, and the pipe
and call are quietly stowed away in
"Davy Jonea* locker."
Underlying all orders for battle is the

While the riflemen are &lt;n,deck en­
gaged in a small-arm contest, if the

ships should approach each other, tho
commending ofllcer Is instructed to ob­
serve the Htiength of his adversary’s
bqttory fire, and whether he can safely
and advantageously return any of his
crow to the guns.
Under the ordinary conditions oi bat­
tle, Hhouhn*lflcmen be deemed necessary,
the marines are first to be called uj&gt;on
for small-arm fire. This is 'because in
the old days they were tupernumeraries

, support, and to act in concert against
the opposing force, using every possible
j {‘xsrtion to clear the enemy’s decks by.
I disabling or driving the men below.
j The I carders aredollowed wry closely
’ by strong supporting bodies of riflemen,
■ who cover-and defend them, directing
: their tiro principally against- the rifle­
men of the enemy. In addition to theso
some of the machine guns thtft have an
ovdrdeck fire must be ready to assist
and support those men. Topmcn, sup-’
plied with baltfl grenades, are supposed
to use them against the enemy while the
foregoiiigjnovements arc in progress.
As soon os the gun or fighting deck Is
cleared the officer in charge has all lad­
ders triced up or removed, detailing one
or more men to each hatchway for its
defense. Should the boarders gain the
enemy’s deck the guns must be de­
pressed as much ns possible In order that
tbpre may be little or no danger to our
own men. As long as the contest is
kept up, even after boarding, a brisk fire
must be maintained and from as many
guns as possible, for much Injury can be
inflicted upon the enemy in this way,“
be-ides the advtintage to be gained by
dividing bls attention at such an im­
portant crisis.
Often on attack or feint may bo ad­
vantageously made from another part of
the ship, so os to create a diversion. Or
the party on the enemy’s deck might de­
tach a body to attempt to secure his
gangway on the unengaged side, the
possession of which is generally consldered very advantageous. Parties of*
sailors ore also oftenTnatructcd.to enter
the enemy’s ship through the gun deck
ports.
Boarding, at besL' 1« a hazardous
undertaking nnd can rarely bo success­
ful unless the enemy la surprised or has
been decidedly worsted at the batUry.

“Hal.” said Burton, “I ha’.n been toll­
ing mother that you would be a son to
her when I am gone. You will cherish
her for my sake, won’t you, Hal?”
I assured him that, so far as I was able,
I would help and bi a.friend to his
mother.
Thon his mind began to wander In
delirium, a peculiarity of his disease,
and in a rambling way he told how dis­
appointed ho was when be came to the
spiritual festival, where all tbe people
who have bebn connected with tbe pro­
prietorship of the estate wero-to bo, and
found that his Zeyna was not of the
throng; bow ho’ had many and many
times come and dwelt for weoks in the
old house, alone In Ito awful dullness,
that ho might catch but a glimpse of
her, but all in vain until he had seen
her in tho library th“ night before; how
Montlnni had appeared to him when 1
was sick in the hospital, and told him
that I was to work out tho problem of
the haunted house; hpw his almost
constant habitation among supernat­
ural beings had cast a shade uf the
supernatural over hlm*olf, so that he
teemed unlike his.fellow-mortals, and
was often the object of wonderment and
dismay to superstitious people; how he
sometimes questioned himself as to hh
destiny, a« to tbe nlcbe bo was to fill in
the grand sum of tho Creator's haudl-

mortal, or a spirit apparently c'otbed in
flesh: how his tastes and thought» so
differed with those of others that he
mingled not among men, but sought tho
grand and beautiful scenes of Nature
and smothered In golden reaches of im­
agination the hankering grief for his
loved one. Then his worrying delirium
seemed to pass away, and ho straightened
down upon the couch and laid quite still
for several hours, during which time I
prepared a letter to Montinni’s heir, to
be sent to him to Venice by te’egraph

DARING NEW YORK TRAIN-ROB­
BERS CAUGHT.
•nirbt

A. Bold B»nd|t.
The shooting of an express messenger
on a Central Hudson train; tha rifling of
a valuable safe; the flight of tho robber
on tho engine of another train, from
which he drives the crow at the polorof a
revolver; a running fight from the engine
for miles followed by another engine filled
with railway men; and the final capture
of the desperado by a sheriff"a pot-ee in
a swamp, after a ylld pursuit across the
country, are eome of the sensational
features in the most desperate attempt
at train robbery in the history of tho
Central Hudson Railway, and which cast
in tho'shade as an exhibition of. coolness
and nerve tho famous exploits of tho
Jesse James band jot other outlaws of
Western fame.
Bays a Rochester, N. Y., telegram:
Train No. 31 on the Ccnthd-Hudeon la
known as tho American Express Com­
pany's special. It runs every day in
the year between New York and Buffalo,
and carries only goods and property
shipped by that company. The train
leaves Now York at 9 o’clock each even­
ing and is due in this city st 7:05 in tho
morning. Nearly all the cars ore run
through to Chicago and contain the
most valuable express matter. Ono car
is known as the "money" car and ii. it Is
sent tho specie train the United States
Treasury for Western banks, os well as
the money in process of exchange be­
tween the banks of New York and tho
West.
Daniel .T. McInerney was In charge of
the money car on the trip Saturday
night Tho train was made up of eight
cars and one day coach for tho accom­
modation .of the regular train crew.
When tho*train was near Weedsport the
conductor, who was in the coach with
his two trainmen, thought he heart tho
air whistle sound very faintly.
It was
enough to arouse him to tho belief that
something was wrong on the express

Going out on the platform of tho
coach, ho climbed onto It. and, looking
through the hole which tho boll cord
comes through, he saw tho upper part of
a man whose face below tho eyes was con­
cealed by a rod flannol mask.. The mes­
senger he could not see, and he went
b&amp;k, set the air brakes, and called his
two trainmen. £he three stood loaning
out from tho platfoim looking forward
along the sides of tbe express cor. Sud­
denly a form appeared at the side door
of the express car. Revolver bullets
whistled past their eyes, and a voice
was heard commanding them to signal
the engineer to go ahead or tako tho
consequences. The trainmen were un­
armed. Tho conductor told one of his
men to jump off, Yun back to Jordan,
and telegraph along tho line to Roches­
ter that they had a train robber on
board.
.
.
This was done and the conductor sig*'
naled tho engineer to go ahead at full
speed, thinking that the robber would
not dare jump and would bo captured at
the next stop. Tho train went to Fort
Byron. Hero the brakes wore set again
and the conductor aud trainmen went to
the express car.
The qpr showed signs ot a desperate
struggle. Money packages and jewelry
werq lying scattered about, everything
stained with blood, and Messenger Mc­
Inerney was lying bleeding from several
wsunds and almost unconscious. Tho
robber was nowhere to be seen and was
supposed to have jumped and made good
Ifls escape. .McInerney wanted to be
brought on to Rochester, and the train
went on to Ljrpns, the next stop. The
news had spread all along the
line by this time,
time. and the sta­
tion at Lvon* was alive.
Among
others in the crowd was a well-dressed
young man wearing gold eyeglasses and
carrying a sachol slung over his shoul­
der. Now, it happened that the txalnmep hod noticed tho young man at the
station at Syracuse before the train had
started out. An attempt to arrest him
was made, but he pulled two revolvers,
held the crowd back, and backed across
tbe yard until he /cached a coal-train,
the engine of which had steam up rea.1y
to pull out for the West. Ho pulled ti.'
pin holding the tenderxo tho first car,
climbed ovor tho cool Into the cab, drove
the engineer and fireman out with his
revolvers, pulled open tho throttle and
started tho engine.
Conductor Laos and ono of tho switch­
men procured a shotgun, freed the en­
gine of the express, and, with tho fire­
man and engineer, started in pursuit of
tho fugitive. The Central-Hudson Is a
four-tracked road, and tho engines,
though they were going wost, wese not
on the same track. Th6 express engine
soon overtook the robber, who suddenly
reversed his engine and lot his pursuers
pass him, pouring pistol bullets into tho
cab as Ms pursuers went by. Then tho
pursuers stopped and tho pursued went
ahead. About seven miles further on
the robber found his steam going out of
his engine. He dropped off at a cross­
road and started across tho country. Ho
managed to terrorize s farmer into let­
ting him have a horse, and rode on about
two,miles farther south, where he pro­
cured another horse. The party in the
express engine had returned to Lyons,
where the Sheriff of Wayne County had
organized a posse, which, under com­
mand of Deputy Sheriff Collins, stArted
in pursuit. Meantime the farmers along
the robber's line of retreat had also
tdtned out, fully armed, in pursuit.
The robber was sighted about five
miles south of Newark. The roads are
very bad and ho had made very poor
speed. He abandoned his horse and ran
across lots to Benton’s swamp, but the
swamp proved to be too full of water
to be penetrated and the fugitive took
up hl* station behind a stone wall and
faced his pursuers. After some parley
he surrendered to Deputy Sheriff Col­
lins. He was taken back to Lyons and
lodged in jail. He gave the name of
William Cross; said ho was from New
Mexico, and bad been boarding In Syra­
cuse for some time. He admitted, he
was tho man xho attempted the train
robbery to Chief of Detectives Hayden
ot thia oity. He te believed to be the
much-wantod Oliver Curtis Ferry who

tempted robbery, a* tar as can be gath­
ered, Is thia:
Cross boarded the train when it pulled
out of Syracuse and climbed on top of
tot express car. Ho was provided with
a booked rope. Fastening the hook in
the alight cornice of the door on one

th* other, aqd resting hi* tove on Th*
ledge that run* acme* toe car, he lookSin the glass of the side door and saw
a expreaa zoes.venger in front of one of
the safes, which wa* open, making up
his bills. He smashed toe glass with
hte revolver, covered the mcisonger, and
shouted to bold up his hands.
Instead of doing so McInerney reached
for toe signal cord with one hand and
for his revolver with the other. A.bul­
let Smashed tbe hand, but not before the
signal had been givqn that aroused the
conductor. Then Mqlncrney fired on
the robber and put a bullet through his
coat. Then tbe robber shot the messen­
ger twice—once In the right Jog and
once in tho left leg. He climbed into
the car and a desperate struggle took
p!a:o which did not end until the train
was stopped for tho flnit time. Dear
Weedsport. It Is evident that the rob­
ber had climbed on top of the cars and
remained there until the stop at Lyons.
Bo far as can bo learned the robber se­
cured absolutely nothing.

Five thousand people stood on the

HOW

AN
This morning early the mistress of
Coy went to the house of A. B. Scott, HLAND.
a white neighbor, living near by, and
told him that Coy was a* the Lo ise of
Gaines. wScott at onte sent a message
with the nows post haste to town, and a
posse imnfcdiately went out to arrest
the negro. Meantime, however, Coy
had left Gaines* bouse, but was appre­
hended and-taken in charge by Mr. Scott
and two sons, who held him until the
arrival of the men from town. The
latter immediately brought their pris­
oner in, and, placing him In a carriage,
conveyed him to tlu&gt; Jewell farm,
where Mrs. Jewell, without hesita­
tion, identified him beyond all doubt as
tho man who assaulted her. Tho trem­
bling wretch was then returned to town,
where the leaders, after a consultation,
decided to hang too negro to a telegraph
pole on Broad street, at tho Stato line,
toe most public place in the city. Coy
was accordingly marched to this point
with a view to carry out this programme,
• lo explalr Loro l.n trpro
but when the crowd saw the rone and
divined that hanging had been &gt;decided
upon there were thunder* of protests.
"Away with the rope! Hanging la too
good for him! Burn him, burn him!”
was the shout that went up from 5,000
throats.
Coy was strapped to tho body of a tree
with iron fastening and coal oil was
poured over hls entire person in liberal
quantities. There was a moment of
silence and then another shout went up:
"Let Mrs. Jewell, apply the matonl
Let Mrs. JeWe 11 set him off!"
Walking slowly, very pale but col­
lected, the woman emerged from tho
crowd. Her appearance before them set
too crowd wild and a mighty cheer went
up that almost shook-the ground on
H. BOE, Proprietor of .the

fell back at her approach, making a
pathway for the brutal nt0.o’s victim,
who, leaning on the irm of a male rela­

When a case presents itself like
that of William Arthur McCord and
Mrs. Thomas Pinkney, tbo eloping
■couple from Toronto who were cap­
tured In Detroit, there is an uneasy
suspicion that perhaps the whipping
post should have been ke^t standing
for just such emergencies.
When a
man will accept the hospitality of a
home, receive financial assistance and
the treatment of a ne^Mfeiend, and
then violate the sancHEF of that
home, rob the hand that h ?lped him,
bring sorrow upon a happy family and
the shadow of disgrace upon three in­
nocent little children, the law is with­
out adequate punishment for the
ingrate.
But perhaps tbe whipping
post would be too good for him.
The Oasis of Touat has become a
bone of contention between France
and Morocco, while the cause of con­
tention is In a mood to set up a gov­
ernment of Its own. Out of these
recent difficulties there seems greater
chance for war in the near future
than there does in the troubles which
have so long disturbed the continent­
al powers of'Europe.

In a moment Rob returned to the
attack. He ran around and tried U&gt;
seize the bird by the tall; but the
bird’s head went about like lightning
on tha pivot of Its long and snakoi!ke neck, while its body never
moved; and again Rob received a
blow which made him yelp.

He drew off a few feet, and then
ran round and round hls enemy, seek­

found himself opposed by that terri­

if the bird must twist his head off in

Selling Milk.

Is it lawful to sell milk to a Duchess
on Sundays? This Is tho great ques­
tion which has just been agitating a
of Scotland Presbytery.
Mr.
Robert Kelso, a farmer and elder o
the Free Kirk in tbe Island of Arran,
has been in the habit of supplying
milk to the Duchess of Hamilton at
Brodick Castle on Sundays. ’ His min­
ister remonstrated with him for this
particular form of Sabbath desecra­
tion.
No coemption, the minister
pointed out, was made in the camp
of Israel in regard to manna—Satur­
day’s supply having always to serve
for Sunday—therefore, no exemption
ought to be made in Arran, even in
the case of milk to a Duchess. The
Kirk Session supported the minister,
and deckled that the wicked elder
should be admonished. The elder,
however, refused to submit, and ap­
pealed to the Presbytery, and this
body, while recognizing the zeal o!
the Session, has enjoined that no admonltiorr shall take place. The elder
thus returns to this island victorious,
and Sunday calls at the castle will
presumably l&gt;e continued. Meantime,
“the medical man iu London," who
was irreverent enough to ufllrm that
“milk diet was a necessity for the
Duchess and Lady Mary" on Sun­
days as well as other days, may well
be left to the “after-biting" of hls own
conscience.
Air-Plow* Tor Ixc unotlvc*.

A novel scheme has been proposed
for Increasing the speed of locomo­
tives, particularly those of fast ex­
press trains.
It is briefly this: tc
place in front of the engine an “air­
plow,” with the sharp edge forward,
extending from a few inches above
the track to the top of the.‘mokestack.
The ordinary resistance oi
the air to the locomotive is doubtless
a very considerable impeding force,
and this device, it is believed, will sc
largely reduce it as to effect a material
increase of speed. Possible, It might
also serve In some measure as a shield
for the train itself, diverting 'the
blast of wind from the car windows,
or at least those nearest the loco­
motive. A gain In speed is a good
thing, but exemption from drafts,
dust, smoke and cinders would be
even a better one.
Troy Weight.

The smallest measure of weights iu
use, the grain, has its name from
being originally the weight of a grain
of wheat. A statute passed in En­
gland in 1260 ordained that thirtytwo grains of wheat, taken from .’he
middle of the ear or head, and well
dried, should make a ‘pennyweight,
twenty of which should make an
ounce, while twelve ounces were tc
make • pound. The pound, there­
fore, consisted then of 7,680 grains.
Some centuries later the pennyweight
was divided Into twenty-four grains,
which make the troy pound.
The
pennyweight was the exact weight oi
the old silver penny.—St. Louis Re­
public.

The

There was still another quiver of the

Development of the Horse.

The horse has been developed In sym­
metry of form, grace of carriage, power
of endurance, and adaptation to specific
purpose. The trotter has been advanced
in speed, year by year, until a mile in
2:40 became the Ideal of the trainer,
then 2:20, 2:10, and less, and now the
hope of the future is to make a mile in
even two minutes. Since 1840 a won­
derful development In freighters and
roadsters has taken place, through tiie
blood of the Percheron, the Norman,
and tho Cleveland Bay, and other En­
glish breeds. The average weight of
work horses has been greatly increased,
and their efficiency and intrinsic value
largely advanced, creating a small for­
eign demand, which is increasing, tend­
ing to strengthen domestic values.

A PLBA BOB BBTTBB HOADS.
Epitok News:—
At the recent farmers’ institute at
Nashville, the essay attracting tbe
most attention was probably that on
the subject of “Country Roads," as
tbe state of our highways interests
every individual of our commonwealth
aud their condition Is generally far
from satisfactory. In railroad build­
ing we have witnessed in the last
thirty years one ot the most gigantic
exhibitions of industrial energy the
world has ever seen, having now in
the United States alone nearly or quite
17S.0W miles yf track, handling dally
a passenger and freight traffic that
fifty years since the wildest enthusiast
wovld never have dreamed possible.
The attention and efforts of our peo­
ple has been so intently occupied with
railroad construction that our wagon
roads have been sadly neglected. Our
system of road work has been a prem­
ia m on waste and laziness, and fre­
quent lack of the veriest fundamental
knowledge of road construction and
intelligent supervision has bad tbe
effect, tn numerous instances, of ren­
dering thd outlay of what little work
was done a damage and nuisance in­
stead of a benefit. Hpn. Andrew D.
White stated quite a broad hard fact
in his vigorous condemna'Jon of our
roads, when he wrote that “tbe pres­
ent condition of our ordk ary lines of
internal communication is a disgrace
to our civilization." To quote a pass­
age from our Institute essay ‘‘the
road is that pbgalcial sign or symbol by
which you will understand any age or
people. If they have no roads they
are savages, for the road Is the crea­
tion of man and a type of civilized so­
ciety.”
The subject of road Improvement,
however, is receiving in many sections
much thoughtful, careful attention.
In Union county, New Jersey, four
years since many of the wagon roads
were in such condition that they were
annually presented to the grand jury
as dangerous to life and limb. In
1889-90 special acts of the legislature
were passed, allowing the county Issue
of bonds for road Improvement. Un­
der these laws nearly 9300,000 in
bonds have been issued; and proceeds
expended, and while part of tbe roads
have been, finished but few months,
so great has been the Increase in valu­
ation of taxable property that the tax
rate is now no higher than before Is­
suance of bonds. Charles C. McBride
in a letter to tbe wheelmen’s publica­
tion “Good Roads,” in answer to the
query “Do such roads pay?" replies
that “As an advertising medium alone
they have been worth what they coat,
for they have brought county property
into enviable prominence, have al­
ready catered th.e sale of many resi­
dential sites, have brought new
wealth and new enterprise in the
midst of us, have given direct impetus
to building and improvements in every
city and town touched by them, and
as yet the benefits are only beginning
to be realized.”
The town of Richland Springs, N.
Y., near Utica, a noted summer re­
sort, bas largely increased its perma­
nent population, its summer patron­
age is nearly doubled, the number of
horses and carriages employed by the
visitors has Increased five times, the
growth of tine driving horses among
farmers has become nn Important
flourishing industry, and al! the out­
growth of Improved roads. In Parke
county. Indiana, so great has been the
benefit from improved thoroughfares
under the gravel road law that at
some terms of court the demand for
warrants
for their
construction
amounts to a clamor. Every column
In The News could be filled to over­
flowing with recitals of similar In­
stances, which in every Instance show
that scarcely any outlay returns so
satisfactory economic and social profit
as a Judicious expenditure for road
improvement.
Without, however, further consider­
ation of fife theory of road Improve­
ment, “the situation that confronts
us" is that generally the roads of Cas­
tleton are abominably bad, with at
least every farmer puzzling hls brains
for an answer to the historic phrase of
old Boss Tweed, “What are you going
to do about it anyhow?"
I assume,
though, that with the almost univers-,
al eager demand for better roads, with
the determination on the part of so
many to have them, that something
will lie done and reasonably soon. We
have admired the energy and grit with
which the residents of the village of
Nashville have tackled formidable
questions of policy that have at times
been l&gt;ef&lt;»re them for consideration,
and watched with special interest the
situation after the burning of the
Lentz factory, when the inevitable

leading to either the village of Kalamo, Vermontville, Morgan, Woodland
or Hastings are in far better condi­
tion than thore entering Nashville.
Woodland with Its better roads, roller

ly tributary to Nafhyllle is now a
formidable competitor. Morgan with
Ite elevator and gristing exchange
trade, is cutting Into the grain trade
that finds easier hauling to that point
than over the clay beds between Nash­
ville and Mud Creek. If Nashville Is
to hold the traffic naturally tributary
to her, a radical improvement of sev­
eral roads must be made, no matter
what the cost.
What shall be done, and how? Is
tbe question for discussion and declssion.
Present Road Commissioner
Hilton Is positive that the first requi­
site Is a supply of four-horse wheel
scrapers. One of these will accomp­
lish wore than four times the work in
one day that can be dune with ;the
ordinary scoop scraper.

places a stone crusher, breaking our

use. If ail the loose stones at the
sides of the roads aud in the wagon
tracks were broken up and used-as a
covering for many of our clay bogs a
devout thanksgiving would arise from
the heart ot many a poor over-worked
horae. The outlay for a crusher ami
two scrapers which would be perhaps
ail that might be required for a be-;
ginning, would aggregate about a |
thousand dollars, a* tax of but one-'
tenth of one per cent, on the present
valuation of the township. - The tax
for this purchase against the heaviest I
farm assessment of Nashville would
be but a fraction over 17.00. As stat­
ed, many of our roads are a disgrace to
our.townshlp, and we cannot afford t&lt;f
allow them to remain as they are. Let
us decide, and as soon as possible, upon ;
some system of Improvement other
than the ordinary “slouchy" annual
force of district road work.
Yours for better roads, H. J. M.

AN INTERESTING COMMUNICATION.
Warsaw, Indiana, Feb. S4th, 1892.
EditcAi News:—
It has occurred to me that possibly
a letter from me, and this part of the
moral vineyard might be appreciated
by you, and of Interest to your readers,
among whom I have so many friends,
and all of them are more or less famil­
iar with my notorious associations with
John .Barleycorn, and the aimless aud
heedless life he led me, and the many
hopeless days and bitter nights the
insidious and treacherous monster
caused me, and the sorrow and humili­
ation thus inflicted upon the loved
ones at home, and all dear to me by
the ties of nature.
■ But perhaps few are aware that
after all of these years of suffering and
degradation, and my many vain and
fruitless attempts to break the fetters
that bound me to this flend—man’s
greatest enemy-ljam again a free man,
and my health fully restored, both
physically and mentally, and 1 now
perform my labor vyith a clear head,
a steady nerve, and an clastic step, as
not before enjoyed since my happy
boyhood days.
All the honor and credit is due to
the celebrated doctor, T. A. Borton, of
the Plymouth Institute of this place,
the “grand old man" who has rescued
hundreds *f the “boys" ship-wrecked
on the rocks of dlspalr, when not an­
other hand was extended to them in
their pitiful and hopeless condition,
and you will hardly be surprised when
I tell you that they all love and rever­
ence their savior devotedly, and cheer
fully obey every command of his, and
promptly respect his every wish.
As an illustration of the phenome­
nal influence or control the doctor ex­
erts over patients, a poor fellow In the
last stage of inebriation was - recently
brought to the institute, and that
night while the doctor was absent
from the “Refuge,” attending a ban­
quet in the city, the patient was vio­
lently attacked with the delirium-tremens, and in his madness became un­
managable, and broke down doors and
attacked the inmates in a most fero­
cious manner, and all fled from the
asylum to escape hls fury. A call for
the police brought three sturdy fel­
lows, who marched the “terrible ex­
ample" off to the city jail, after which
the doctor was notified, and the sym­
pathetic old gentleman promptly went
to the prison, and asked for his “boy.”
and the desperate fellow submissively
followed “father,” as the boys now
call him, back to the “retreat” and a
single word or motion of the Unger
was sufficient to compose him when­
ever he became demonstrative, and
Anally put him to bed where he soon
dropped into peaceful slumber, and
awoke in the morning master of the
fell destroyer, aud unconscious of the
consternation he had caused in the
building that night, his visit to the
jail, or anything pertaining to the
sad and horrible experience; and he
graduated and returned home a happy
and strong man, without the slightest
knowledge of this Occurrence..
This is only one of the many similar
instances where the doctor has never
•hesitated, but calmly and firmly taken
charge of these violent and furious
subjects.
The “stuffed prophet” in the village
west ot here, or others of his caliber,
may call this magnetism, mesmerism,
will-power, or wnatever they please,
but everyone of the boys will vigorous­
ly maintain that it is a subtle quality,
inexpressible or unexplainable, occu­
pied with kindness, patience, and love
—the greatest of all virtues.
When I took my treatment last
November, the Institute was in its in­
fancy, In swaddling clothes, I might
say, but lb bas had a wonderful growth
and has since been forced Into the
large sanitarium in this* city, which
has already become crowded and ad­
ditional buildings are to be erected
at once.
I am chief assistant to the doctor,
and am kept busy almost day and
night dealing out medicine to the
“boys,” but I delight In the work as it
affords me great pleasure to be of as­
sistance to the “boys in theditch.”
The doctor abandoned a general
practice which yielded him annually
about ten thousand dollars to .devote
his whole energy and undivided at­
tention to this great and glorious
work, in which ho bas entered heart
and soul, aud like a wise, kind and
Christian father has the success and
welfare of everyone of his “boya” at
heart, and has assisted all who have
come to him out of employment, and
financially stranded, to good positions,
so that all are happy and prosperous.
This Is a beautiful and enterprising
city, set in between three grassy lakes,
which touch upon the edges ot the
town. It Is a summer resort of even
national renown, in fact the “Athens"
of the great state.
Here the Island Park Assembly
meets every year, aud here people
from the larger cities pass the warm
weather in the pretty cottages that
environ the shores of the lakes.
Tbe handsome streets are lined with
hospitable homes, many of which are
thrown open for the reception of the
patients, and they go and come as they
please, seeking whatever relaxation
suite their pleasure.
The people are full of sympathy
with the work of reforming drinking
men; for with their owneyes they have
seen some of tbe most unfortunate of
their fellow citizens lifted up from
lives of misery to resume places of use­
fulness and honor.
"They have been tried at thb liar of
a mother's love, of a wife’s respect, aud
of a child’s affection, and the verdict
has bwn unqualifiedly ‘guilty’.”
Yours,
Geo. F. Tbuman.

added to the above list Norway and
Sweden, Hungary, Switzerland, Canada,
and several others. At a low estimate,
the total of the appropriations of foreign
nations will reacn $5,000,000. Nearly
all of the participating nations will
erect buildings in the Exposition
grounds, Building sites have already
been selected for (treat Britain, Ger­
many, Japan, Turkey, Mexico, Peru,
Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia, Costa Rica,
Guatemala, and Chill. The buildings
of foreign nations will present most
varied contrasts In respect t« size,
architecture, and adornment.
The United States Government has
appropriated thus far $1,509,000, of
which $400,000 -was set apart for its
building, and $25o,00ii, approximately,
been drawn for the cost of five ses­
tina of the National Commission, two
sessions of the Board of Ladv Mana­
gers, the salaries of tbe officers and em­
ployes of these two bodies, and'tho ex­
penses of three special agents of the
Treasury Department who were sent to
E-rrops to explain to Jorelgn commissions
and govemmouts tho regulations of the
department governing the importation
of exhibits. A considerable portion of
the remainder lias been spent in prep­
aration of tlie Government exhibit by
the board having the matter in charge.

The Inst three are being' erected, tho
first two by the United States Govern­
ment and the third by the State of Illi­
nois. The visitor, however, will natur­
ally class them among the great Exposi­
tion structures.
Tho Exposition buildings, not includ­
ing those of the Government and
Illinois, have also a total gallery area
of 45.9 acres, thus niakinc their total
floor space 199.7 acres. The Fine Arts
building-bus 7,835 lineal feet, or 145,852
square feet of wall space.
All of tho annexes will bo scarcely

The livestock sheds, which will cover nn
immense area as indicated, are to be
constructed as inexpensively us possi­
ble without marring tho general archi­
tectural effect.
The power houses,
pumping works, etc., uro to bo exhibits
in themselves, and so constructed as to
be readily inspected by visitors. There
will bo several Exposition buildings In
addition to those named, but data con­
cerning them are not yet fully deter­

Saint Distaff's Day and Plough Mon­
day arc no longer honored even in're­
mote corners of tho world; had it not
been for Shnkspeare, Twelfth Night
might also have sunk into oblivion. In
tho merry and leisurely old days of
England, people were in no hurry to re­
sume wotx after a season of pleasure,
and Christmas festivities lasted until
Twelfth Day. Then camo Saint Distaff s
Day, when every one was supposed to
resume his ordinary avocations. Th©
men wont to the field with the oxen and
the plough, while tho women began their
spinning. But tho plough was soon' de­
serted and the men came back to steal
into the house and try to set fire to tho
women’s flax. It was tho woman’s
privilege to punish this libertjr by duck­
ing the men with pails of water.' What
sports would follow f r the rest of the
day after such a beginning may bo
imagined, and it may be well believed
that Saint Distaff’s votaries did not far
profane ins day by work. Before all
thought of revelry was finally put aside
an&lt;l sober duties again held complete
sway there was ono more rustic festival.
Plough Monday, tho Monday after
Twelfth Day. This was a second day
on which labor became a more pretense.
As long ago i s the Roman Church was
tho established ono of England certain
candies were kept burning in tho
churches on this day as an offering to
secure the prosperity of the plough man's
labor through tho year. The money
for these candles was collected by tho
ploughmen themselves in a way that
gave no small opjiortunlty for bovine
wit and rndn jollity. The men of a con­
siderable tract of country would meet
an 1 form a fantastic procession, in tho
midst of which they dragged a plough,
dot orated with many colored ribbons
and such other ornaments as they had
at hand. The processton was led by a
man dressed as a woman ond known as
Bessie, whose burlesque dances and
antics would naturally furnish no small
part of the amusement. Bessie carried
a money-box, and as the merrily dis­
union &lt;1 crowd went on from house to
house, contributions were demanded
everywhere. Woe to the rich man who
falletl to respond to the call, for then
the genuine fun of the day.was thought
to bu inorder. A company of the swains
would thereupon jteizc the, ropes by
which tbe plough was dragged, and be­
fore the rivn man knew it the ground In
front of his door would be neatly
ploughed up. Thus did the punishment
fit the crime, though it may bo sup|&gt;osed
that this penalty was seldom actually
inflicted when it could be so cheaply
averted. Under the Protestant faith
th?ro were no candles for Plough Mon­
day, but the money was long collected
in the same way, and it was used to
keep the lights burning In some public
bouse where tho ploughmen drank to
their own prosperity.

With the question on hte lips the
speaker moved down the narrow plat­

"Your trunk, sir," repeated the new­
comer, when the grievance was ex­
plained. “Isn’t tout it, ate?"
"That thing!" Jack gave rather on un­
complimentary glance toward the small
object of black. “No, mine does not
resemble that in the least. They have
failed to put it off evidently, and mean­
time I am greatly inconvenienced.”"I am very sorry, sir. No mistake In
checking it, I suppose?"
“Mistake—no. I bought my ticket for
Weeton, and received my-----“Ah,” interrupted the man, with a
smile of Intelligence, "this is South
Weston. Weston is five miles above."
Jack looked slightly bewildered.
"South Weston," he repeat^, in per­
plexed tones; ‘I don't understand."
“No, sir; a very natural mistake.
Two names much alike. I'll telegraph
for your baggage. What name, please?"
“Name? Oh, my name—Beverly, but
wait a second. There’s no necessity to
send for the tiling. I'll take the next
train to Weston."
"If you are Mr. Beverly, sir, you don't
need to go to Weston."
Jock turned with a decided start to
see the station master molding famil­
iarly to a short stout man who bod
come rather noiselessly upon them.
"I’m sorry I’m late, sir," continued
toe intruder. "Majo was in one of hte
tantrums. The carriage te right here,

“Carriage, repeated Jock, knitting
hte brows in grave perplexity. ‘Whose

An expression of surprise passed over
the man's somewhat stolid face.
“Mr. Millard's, sir," he answered,
"Your letter was delayed; wc didn’t get

man and Miss Millard expect you." *
“The deuce they do," muttered Jack
under hte breath. "Millard! Millard!
Ah, the name of Frank’s charming
friends; and my letter? Oh, Frank’s, I
dare say. Peculiar, though, I declare. I
wonder if this fellow is perfectly sane."
“Look here.” he added aloud; “are you

Oh, confound it. Are you sure I am ex­
pected?"
The old man evidently thought he had
wasted sufficient time In Idle question­

"Mr. Beverly is expected, sir; I was told
to meet him."
"All right," was the agreeable answer.
"I cannot be mistaken in my own iden­

pose, I should telegraph for my trunk.

Toby, let mo know when we reach our

With these wools Jack stepped into
the carriage, Jit a cigar, and settled him­
self to enjoy the picturesque scenery
about him.
After twenty minutes’ riding Toby’s
head was thrust through the window
with tote information.
“Are we?" questioned Jack, recalling
hte wandering thoughts and turning hte
attention to the house before him. It

it was a girl riding, towards 1dm.
Whether she was pretty he could not
decide after his first brief scrutiny, but
her attire wo* highly disillusionizing.
The faded, ill-fitting waist and skirt had
evidently been diverted from its original
use, and dignified into a riding habit,
and the battered straw hat, confined be­
neath her chin by an almost colorless
piece of ribbon, bore ample proof of long
and hard service.
“An ill-drca*cd woman Is always an
abomination,” commented Jack, “but
that rig rather treats anything I’ve yet
come across. I begin to think this fam­
ily slightly off their mental balance.
Confound that hat. It hides her face
completely."
“Back already, Toby?" asked a fresh,
clear voice, in a lowered tone, as the
owner of tbe old hat eamo to a stand­

“Yea, Miss Mary, and I’ve got him."
"Oh, Toby," was the answer in u half

CH.UTER II.

Mary Millard hod no recollection of
either mother or father. The one early
event which had Impressed itself upon
her memory was the death of her grand­
mother.
\
She often recalled with painful vivid­
ness her grandfather’s passionate grief,
and the bitter cry with which he bad
clasped ner to his heart:
“You are all I have in the world,
Mary."
She was but seven year* old when
they came to live in the old house in the
quiet New York village.
Contentedly seif-burind, Mr. yillard
devoted himself to hi--» books, and ap­
parently cared nothing for the world
which circled round the changeless
habits of Li* dally Ute. Mary’s delight,
however, knew no bounds. The beauty
of life te irrepressible, and her heart was
open to its faintest impression.
“We must call it Robin's Rest," she
declared; “the trees are literally alive
with robins.^ Oh, grandpa. I shall be so
1 And certainly she was happy as the
violet in tbe *hndow of the wildwood, w
the birds who song in the tree* around
here.
Her education, ho fur a« books went,
wa« gained from her grandfather, though
tbe task of studying was not one to
which she took kindly.
She learned more rearlily from nature

k UT a knife to thy
F throat if toon be a

petite," said Solo­
mon. Some of the
people who live in
this year of grace
do not think thead­
vice good. Neither
suicide nor eating
with, a knife is
good form in these
days. It must be
evident even to the
casual visitor at
thd Senate restau­
rant that tin.' wife
man was Dot ad­
dressing hi* re­
marks to - United
.
States Senators.
No self-respecting Senator ever allows
bls knife togetwltoin a foot of hte jugu­
lar. Members of the House may, per­
haps, elevate their pork and beans to
tho mouth level without toe assistance
o’f a fork, but-the dignified Senator nerar
permits the glittering steel greater nJtV
tudo than tho^hlrd button on his vest.
The day for eating with your knife was
cut short by that happy Invention—the
four-pronged fork.
.
Popular interest in Senators increases
In a greater ratio than daes toe number
of those more or less distinguished leg­
islators. The thousands of visitors who
dally tramp through and around-and
about .the Capitol delight In prying into
tho senatorial existence; they occupy
the. Senate floor until removed by too
opening of the session and the energy of
several employes; they survey Senators
from the galleries and criticise their
respective and generally respectable
appearance; they peep through halfoponed committee-room doors and reach
the apex of the tourist's bliss when they
behold a Senator engaged in the con­
sumption of food.
“He’s eatln’ raw oysters," said a
stranger to his wife the other day. The
couple had, from afar. followed one of
the Senators who represent their State,
to the Senate restaurant. The male
tourist watched the alleged legislator
commence feeding, and then reported to
the waiting but equally curious •female.
The Senate restaurant is an interest­
ing place. Business doe* not really
commence uhtll noon, but for half an
hour thereafter there te no rush. Then
comes, the crowd of hungry ones, and
from 12:30 until after .two o’clock the
waiters’ hardly have time to perspire.
Every table has its' quota of occupants,
aqd the string &lt; f humanity that leans up
against too long counter te tolerably
continuous. It is a good place to find
almost any lost one, whether Senate or

man in creation. I don't care a snap of
my finger for that Beverly, or whatever
hte name te. He’ll bo sure to imagine
I'm dressing for him, so if my clothes
are outrageous he can't imagine it,
that's all there te about it. I’d like to
see him laugh at them. Just let him
dare."

Roseberry, the famous Jumping
horse, died in Chicago of injuries re­
ceived In an attempt made to clear a
bar 7 feet uj Inches high. His record
was 7 feet 5j Inches. The pathos of
Roseberry's death will perhaps lead
to considerate talk of the cruelty of
forcing dumb animals to tests of
agility and speed. But In such a
case as thte the extenuation te almost
adequate. If the performances of
tbe .nlmals were perrunclory the

cruelty would be obvious, but tbe
race horse loves the .track even bettet
thau the Jockey, and it is not a forced
supposition that Roseberry had a
consciousness of the feat which he
attempted and a strong delight in
the attempt, and was, all in all, as
free a moral agent in the matter as
hte rider. Men are committing sui­
cide every day in a wild struggle to
accomplish the impossible.
There
may be a stronger pathos in the death
of a horse under similar cl reunistances, but the principal reasons for
thte are the uniqueness of the event
and the fart that the beast has no
tongue with which to describe the
humiliation of hte defeat or the agopy
of hi* last hour*.

Senator employe, to say nothing of the
liberal sprinkling of newspaper men who
hurry in and out, combining tho hasty
pleasure of eating with tho business
of gathering Information. To feed oil
these hungry ones Mr. Page has to
employ about thirty people—twelve of
them in tho kitchen—and they all have
reasonable opportunity to earn their
rocoihpcnso. Three dusky retainers at­
tend to the customers at the lunch
counter, transmit orders of waiters to
the kitchen and hand out the tangible
ret-ponses. Of these James Lewis te
chief.
He is invariably designated
“Lewis," and he probably would not
know that ho was being spoken to if
otherwise addressed. His business-like
silence is as marked a* hte business­

But it was not tho average luncher

is of the wildest and grandest de­

snow, rising abruptly, are seen, and
again chains of glacier lakes, streams
dashing down from beetling bluffs,
made the picture. Glorious views
suddenly open over masses of rock
like a sea frozen magically into stone
or gray and ashy plains.
The glaciers, which move irresist­
ibly down the mountain, are the
makers of the passes. Grinding their
course on, they wear away a' path
which man uses for his own needs.
All who have occasion to cross the
mountains, even the animals, have
to use these passes, since on account
of the height any other way would be
Impracticable. Bears and wild sheep
la their Journeys employ the same
passes as do men. Here and there,in tbe midst of the passes, vegetation
flourishes luxuriantly, with the wild­
rose, aster and poppy. Delicate ferns
bloom about the rocks and, with
groups of most fragrant flowers, com-,
bine somewhat to relieve the too
great severity of the mountains.

A famous English beauty, Lady
Londonderry, has a peculiar and suc­
cessful system for keeping her youth­
ful freshness. Although she Is per­
fectly well she lies In bed one day in
ten, sleeping in the morning of this
day of rest until she wakens natur­
ally. After a hot bath and a light
breakfast she goes back to bed and
rests quietly in a darkened room un­
til 0 o'clock, when she dresses in a
peignoir, dines In her room, and sits
about Idly until 10 o’clock, when she
goes to bod again. No social, event Is
considered of sufflcient importance to
cause the lady to give up this periodi­
cal retirement from the hurry and
excitement of modern living.

sulted in the accident on the Chicago,
Milwaukee and St Paul JiAliway at
Milwaukee, which caused the instant
death of oeven men.
According io a dispatch glvinp particu­
lars, the accident occurred at the foot of
17th street a few minutes before 1
o'clock Tuesday afternoon. The fart
that the trains were moving at a com­
paratively slow rate of spued alone pre­
vented a railway horror which would
have counted Its dead by the scores. '
,A11 the Killed and injured were em­

Which consists eff seven old-fashioned
coaches. The (rain had juat passed IVth

thundering along on a parallel truck.
Just before it overtook the shop train a
white-faced switchman tusbtd out,
waving his arms, and tbe next- instant
the Watertown special t&lt;ok tha switch
and plunged into the rear coaches of the
shop train.
Three of the shop train coaches were
toppled over aud ground Into the cin­
ders of the roadbed. Several cars on
the passenger train left the rails, but
w&lt; re not overturn: d. The men in the
overturned cars struggled to free them­
selves. The frightened pcssoagera of

senses and runhed from the cars and in­

Instant death. They w re men who at­
tempted, to jump from the s'.de diors of
tho old coaches and were crushed to
death whfn the cars toppled ever &lt; n
them. The bodies were all quickly,
taken from the wreckage and conveyed
to the morgue.
The picture at the wreck was one
which few people could look upon with­
out a shudder. Beneath the overturned
cars, which had been raised with levers
sufficiently to release the bodies of the
dead, were strewn pieces of flesh, while
the tracks were etalnod with the blood
of the unfortunates. Here was a crush­
ed hat, and there a batteied dinner-pail.
Tbe workmen who escaped huiriediy
went to their homes or their friends,
and the ground was scon abandoned
to the employes of the company t nga ;ed
in clearing the tracks and Dy ng to as­
certain tho exact cause of the accident.
The latter proved an easy task.
Will Bartels, the switchman in charge,
wept to Superintendent M. Kenna, asked
his advice and then gave himself up to
the police, to whom he admitted that'he
had left three switches open in thd per­
formance of his duty, his only excuse
being that he forgot to close them. He
was locked up pending investigation.
There was great indignation among the
neighbors of the dead, who talked about
hanging the switchman responsible fur
tho disaster. Few of the friends of the
victims beard of the accident until the
remains were brought to the city, and
the most affecting ^cne^ were enacted
&gt;t the morgue when the work of identi­
fication was going on.
A 'singular
ft ature of the accident was that nobody
upon tho express train was injur* d.
The railway officials maintained their
usual policy of refusing to give out any
Information concerning the wreck, and
the agents of tho claim department, who
have cliargo of tho work of settling
damage claims against iho company for
Injuries, were upon the ground- almost
os soon os tho local police officers.
Bartels, the switchman who is held re­
sponsible for tho cause of tho wreck,
was seen at tho Central Police Station.
Ho has tw- men under him as pssistants, und the three, according to the
statements of Bartels, uro kept eo busy
that it frequently becomes necessary tor
him to rely upon his subordinates to see
that tho switches are in the proper po­

■witches, and may have left them open.
He is twenty-nine years old. He says

out afresh any day. The history of
the dispute is well understood at the
seat of disaffection, but the public at
large has but a slight conception of
the questions at issue.
One night last July a party of throe
hundred miners went to the Tennes­
see Coal Company’s mine, where the
work was being done by convicts, und
demanded that the latter be taken
away. The guards, being few In
number and unable to offer resist^
ance, removed the convicts from
Briceville to Goal Creek, and &lt; Akers
of the company called upon the Stale
for aid, which was granted. A few

each side the front. Toe bottom of the
skirt is garnltured with n pleating of the
faille, headed top and bottom, and set
off with the pearkd passementerie laid
on festoon-wise. It would be difficult
to imagine a more charming reception
gown than this one which I have just
described.
A ba.ll or opera toilet always calls for
some sort of a wrap, light, airy and
graceful, to throw over the shoulders.
The cue which you will find represented
in my third illustration is made kip in
lace and feathers, although chiffon may
bo substituted for the lace. The feathers
form a yoke to which tho pleated back
is Joined. In the center of the back you
set a bunch of I own from which hang
two long end-k. The fronts are eewed
to the feather yoke at the shoulder, and
are worn loosely tied, as represented.
Two bows mark the point where the
fronts separate fioni the back. The
feather yoke should be made up on some
thii&gt; material, the size and color being
largely n matter of taste.
My fourth illustration portrays a very
stylish and original dinner or reception
dress, made up in Russian tulle and
white satin. The tulle'overskirt, which
starts at the height of the waist gores,
Is embroidered in a peculiar way which I
will desi ribo farther along. The white
satin underskirt, made princess, is quite
plain, and only has a pleated flounce at
tho bottom. The corsage hooks at the
back invisibly. The breadths of the
train mujt be cut very bias in the upper
port, and must te made fuller than
usual. Tho tack breadths are pleated
and caught on a band. Tho skirt must
be lined with fiannel, cr&lt; pe, or veiling.
The corsage, lined with silk, is draped
and then no one will notice It." What a* far down as the waist gores with
an egregious error! As well might an white muslin fichu, and the ribbon visi­

becoming to a stout'woman, but a skillful
hand can always modify. For instance,
a tabller or a panel may be used to
break this plainness. Pleated bodices
don’t become a woman of small stature,
n •&lt; may she. with good effect, wear
Jong basques. In a word, you must
study your figure and learn Its good
points and its limitations before you can
expect to read your name in the list of

had started bn the train, the miners
proceeded to tho mines of the Knox­
ville Iron Company, in which con­
victs had been employed for fourteen
years.
The. guards there marched
out with 125 convicts, who in turn
were sent to Knoxville. - Governor
Buchanan, being Informed of the
situation, sent ten companies, some
of them artillery armed with Gat­
ling guns, to the scene of the dis­
turbance. A committee of miners
visited the Governor, but could get
no satisfaction from him.
There
was groat excitement among the
miners and violence was threatened.
A meeting was held, at which the
committee appointed to wait upon
the Governor made a report.
It was a turbulent gathering. The
only concession that the. committee
had been able to obtain was a promise
that the Governor would call an ex­
tra session of the Legislature and
submit to that body a proposition for
the’ repealed the convict labor law.
A few counseled forbearance until
this should be brought about, but the
majority insisted that convict labor
in the mines shonld qease at once.
Finally, however, it was agreed to
allow the Governor to act as he had
proposed on condition that the militia
bo ordered home; that an armistice
be maintained for sixty days and that
the convict lease system be abolished.
The committee was instructed to in­
form the Governor that if these con­
ditions were not complied with there
would be war and that any force sent
into the mountains to coprec them
would be exterminated from the face
of the earth.
Governor Buchanan called the Leg­

but that body refused to repeal the
convict labor law.
Troops were
again sent to the district to protect
the convicts, and, although there

There are many personal and fam­

Sutton-Barnard feud several years
ago attracted widespread attention.
Originating in a trivial difference of
opinion, it grew to great proportions,
and resulted in the violent death of
five persons and the permanent maim­
ing of several others.

well as the coal companies will find
that they have undertaken no easyjob in the endeavor to compel the
miners of this district to submit to
the competition of corivict labor. It
is a question, of existence with the
majority. They have but one means
of livelihood—mining—and the at­

compel them to work side by side with
convicts of every grade will be re­

The administration of the Pension
Bureau Is at present the subject of
Investigation by a special committee
of the House of Representatives, As
tbe bureau distributes about &lt;150,­
000,000 anually In pensions, its meth­
ods arc a subject of ।—
vast concern to the
American
public.

administration.
Green B. Raum was b»rn in Illi­
nois in 1829. He was admitted to
the bar in 1853, and removed to
Kansas in 1838. Tbe next year he
returned to his native State. Ha
was a Democrat until 1861. Rauin
fought In the Union army, and rose
from tbe rank of major to that of
brigadier general. In 1866 he waa
nominated to Oongress, in which be
Mined one term. From 1876 to 1883
he was Commisstonar of Internal
Revenue. He then settled at Wash­
ington as a lawyer, and practiced
until his appointment by President
Harr Ison tz» his present office.

The hrst meeting ot the National
League and American Association of
Profeaaiouttl
tessiouul Base-ball
Base-bail Players was held
in New York the ’
other day.
Tbo
-national agree­
ment committee,
John I. Rogers,
Zach Phelps and
N. E. Young, de­
cided on a form of
agreement to con­
trol “drafting."
Tho matter was
finally settled by
voting to divide
fthe minor leagues
• into two glasses to
be known as A and
B.
The former
pays &lt;150 for protection and gets $1,000
for any player drafted; the latter pays
$75 and gets $500 for a drafted player.
Drafting can only bo done between Oct.
1 and Feb. 1.
•
Tho Western association agreed to do
away with two of the most objectionable
rules—namely, compelling players to
purchase their own uniforms and charg­
ing them 50 cents a day while on a trip.
The Eastern association also decided to
make its playing season from May 1 to
Oct. 1.
Mr. Rogers presented tho two new
forms of players' contract he had pre­
pared. One Is for. a period of seven
months, and the’ oth&lt; r Is the twelve
months’ form. The latter does not work
against the players’ financial interests,
as many players suppose. It simply
provides a new plan of dividing the sal­
ary paymt-nte. The payments need not
necessarily be equally divided through­
out the twelve months. A player may
arrange to take oil but'a few hundred
dollars during the playing season and
tho balance in the off months. Sliould
ho be released at any time during
tho playing season, the club is
obliged to pay him the propor­
tionate amount of his salary, biked
upon the seven months’ system. That
is to nay, if he were to te released after
three months of service ho would, get
three-sevenths of his salary, not throe­
twelfths. And, furthermore, should his
club release him at the end of tho sea­
son, ho would be entitled to the full
amount of his salary, no matter how
many mouths his contract might have to
run. It is also stipulated in the twelve­
month contract that the club shall have
no control over a player's actions during
tho off months except as regards his
physical condition and moral habits.
These contracts were approved and
unanimously adopted by tho league.
Many of the league players ha&lt;J already
been signed to the new twclve-month
contract.
The Committee on Bules then made
Its reports. Tho principal contest was
on the proposed change from four balls
entitling a batsman to first b'ase to threo
balls. A change was beaten by a vote
of 10.to 2. The following playing rules
were then made:
“Tho players’ bench shall be twentyfive feet back from the base lines."
Rule 26. “If a team resorts to dilatory
practice for the purpose of having tho
same called on* account of darkness or
rain tho umpire may forfeit the game
to tho £lub not at fault”
Added to Rule.30, "Provided a ball so
delivered that it touches the bat or
batsman in hit position shall bo counted
a batted ball and In play."
Bule 8. “If a ball strike a fence less
than 235 feet from the home plate the
batsman shall bo entitled to only two
bases."
.
Added to section 4, rule 44, tho words:
“His person, except hand or forearr ,
which makes a dead boll."
Added to nrie 50: ’ “And not more than
two coaches who may be one of the
players In the game and any one in the
uniform of tho club at bat, shall bo al­
lowed at any one time."
Rule 53. “The umpire is the sole and
absolute Judge of plays. In no Instance
shall any person be allowed to question
.th® correctness of his decision on a play,?
and no player shall leave his position in
the field, bases or bench to approach or
advise the umpire, except to show play­
ing rule, and then only the captain. No
manager or any officer shall go on the
field under penalty of forfeiture of the
game."
Added to section 2, rule 53: “He shall
also receive from the captains their
respective batting orders, which when
approved shall be followed as provided
by rule 19."
Added to section 8, rale 68: “If a
base-runner advances a base on a 3y out
or gains two bases on a single base-hit,
.or an infield out, or attempted one, he
shall be credited with a stolen base, pro­
vided that there is a possible chance and
a palpable effort made to retire him."

The winter wheat crop bears no compariron with that of last year. It Is
much m?re backward and general con­
ditions not aa favorable. It is short and
thin, but it has improved greatly during
tho recent mild, wet weather. No roforta of wheat having been winter
Hied. In a few of the southern coun­
ties spring work has commenced. The
movement of wheat has been more free
during the last two weeks than previous­
ly, and would have been larger had the
roads been in condition for farmers to
haul.
Millers are good bidders for
wheat and have light stocks on hand.

In Kentucky tho condition ot tho win­
ter wheat crop is much below that of the
same tlme'lqst year. During tho last
ten days there have been some warm
days and the wheat appears to be grow­
ing a tittle. There aro so far no com­
plaints of winter killing, but It is diffi­
cult vet to deUrmine tho real condition
ot the laU sown winter wheat. The
majority of the farmers are inclined to
wait until we have enough warm weath­
er to see whether it is going to grow be­
fore they plow It up. Little "wheat has
been sold during the last thirty days.
There is more wheat In farmers' bands
than at this time last year. Country
mills, however, are not as well supplied
as they were then.

TWAS THE WORST BLIZZARD
IN FOUR YEARS.

THE BLAND BILL IS TO BE DIS-

lAvsty

The worst blizzard known since Jan.
12,1888. set in through the Northwest
Wednesday. Reports received indicate
that much damage to property baa been
Inflicted, great suffering caused, and a
considerable loss of life experienced,
while later and fuller reports mav make
tho situation so much worse that its
horrors will exceed that of the terrible
storm ot four years ago. Minnesota and
North Dakota seem to have been the
worst sufferers from the blizzard, while
heavy snow, accompanied by high
winds, fell in Wisconsin, and Iowa felt
the effect of a severe blow. Kansas,
Nebraska, Illinois and Michigan were
also affected to a greater or less degree.
A dispatch. sent out from St. Paul
•ays: Minnesota is the ctnter of a
blizzard which has not been equaled In
years. A furious storm of snow and
wind traveled from the region of Cal­
gary, a distance of over twelve hdndred
miles, reaching Minnesota in the night.
The storm extends over a vast stretch
of country, and came upon Minnesota
to unexpectedly and with such terrific
force that it has fairly stunned the
State, and business pertaining to out­
door* is absolutely suapended. For ten
days the weather had been balmy and
springlike. Not a vestige of snow was
on Minnesota soil, and everywhere
farmers were preparing for spring seed­
ing. In the citie* storm-sash had been
taken down, furnaces wore banked,
and spring hoUse-cleaning - was in
progress.
A
warm rain
began
falling
during
the
night,
and
toward midnight a strong breeze sprang
up that had increased to a gale by day­
light. *It changed the rain to snow and
sleet and drove it furiously before it at
an increasing velocity. By the time day
had dawned a full-fledged blizzard ex­
tended from tho western limits of the
State over into Wisconsin and south
through Iowa. The mercury fell rapidly,
and the know was frozen into particles
like sand, which were driven at a veloc­
ity of fifty miles an hour. Owing to
the suddenness of the storm It Is feared
that many live* have been lost In North
Dakota, as the conditions were the same
as those which preceded tbe great bliz­
zard of a few years ago, when so many
people perished.
The ext&lt; nt and damage of the storm
are impossible to learn at this time, as
wires ore down on every line to the
west and the balance of the State shut
out entirely. All westward railroads re­
port that station houses were unroofed
along their lines and thus the wires were
thrown down. Not a single western or
southwestern road is attempting to keep
up a schedule, and on most of them not
a wheel is turning.
Previous blizzards in Minnesota have
been confined to the prairie districts and
have given St. Paul a wide birth, but
this hurricane fell upon the capital with
unexampled fury. Great drifts of snow
were plied upon the streets and about
doorways, blocking up traffic and making
podestrianism nearly Impossible. The
cable lines were operated only by con­
stant use of plows and sweepers, and the
electric lines were run only at irregular
Intervals, while many lines were wholly
abandoned., The wind came in fierce
gusts which could not be faced, and the
streets one moment would be piled three
feet deep in snow and the next swept
clean. Every public school was closed,
the first time for such a cause In fifteen
years. The telephone and fire alarm
wires were in constant difficulty and tho
telegraph companies accepted western
business subject to indefinite delay.
At Grand Forks the storm was so se­
vere that the hackmen refused busi­
ness, and the large audience at th* Me­
tropolitan Theater was forced to remain
until almost daylight before the storm
abated sufficiently.
Fergus Falls, Minn., reports great
damage done to roofs and glass, and
tliat it Is dangerous for men to cross the
street.
At Winnipeg two houses were thrown
down. The thermometer fell 60 degrees
at Northfield In a few hours.
At Crookston several thousand dollars'
worth of property was destroyed by the
high winds. Plate-glass windows were
smashed and goods ruined by snc\w and
carried away by the wind. Besldences
all aver the city were unroofed. Llmbrf
of trees six inches in diameter were
snapped off. All city and county offices
aud s 'bools wire closed, and all trains
have been abandoned. Other places In
the State report terrific winds and low
temperature.
At Waterloo, Iowa, the storm reached
its height at neon, tearing off many
roofs, breaking plate-glass windows,
and overturning carriages. Two harks
were overturned on the bridges and one
man was seriously Injured. No covered
vehicles attempted to cross the river.
Telegraph wires are down, and all trains
are late. Tho mercury fell over 70 de­
grees In twenty-four hours.
In the vicinity ot Cedar Rapids the
storm was extremely severe, and tho
mercury dropped 50 degrees in a tew
hours.
At Chicago the thermometer marked
44 degrees at noon and at midnight reg­
istered but 6 degrees above zero. A
three-story frame building. In process of
construction, was blown down and two

Silver had the House in a turmoil for
more than four hours the other after­
noon. The report of £he Committee on
Huies. eet'Jr.g apart three days, ending
with March 25, for consideration of tho &lt;
Bland bill, was the bone of contention.
It was finally adopted by a vote of 189
to 65, all the Republican* but thirteen
voting for It, in order, a* they frankly
sold, to cm harass, the Democrat*. I t
was-a very enjoyable day for the Repub­
licans, who for the most part kept quiet,
while the Demcarats fought it out. The
afternoon waa marked by several excit­
ing incidents, among which were a
warmly discu»*ed question of veracity
between Biand and Bourke Coekran,
two arbitrary ruling* by Speaker Crisp,
who, also on one accaslon lost hls tem­
per, a warning by George Fred Williams
that, tho Democratic party was throwing
■way the Presidency, and a ehi rt speech
in which, the Democrat* say, Heed ex­
hibited more feeling and elo quence than
he has ever before displayed In the
House.
Wlille the silver bill will be taken up
for debate later In tho month there Is as
yet no certainty of it* passage. Tho
voting indics'es that there are etghtyflve Democrats ready to vote agaii st
the Bland bill. Seventy-two Democrats
voted against the resolution, and, with
pairs and absentees, the number of rntl•llver votes from the Democratic side I*
swelled to a certainty cf elghty-scvcn.
Of the eighty-seven Republicans in tho
House only ten vfill vole for the bi. .
leaving seventy-seven opposed. These
added to tho eighty-five Democrat* g.ve
a total of 162, or within five of a ms;u.'Ity of a full House. It i* claimed by
anti-silver Democrats that before a vote
is taken on tho passage if tho bill they
will secure enough recruits to turn the
balance in their favor. An accession cf
throe or four men to the anti-silvcr
ranks will do tbe business, and, with
some of the meet influential Democratic
Senators endeavoring to defeat tho bill
In tho House, It would bo strange If ti.e
required number of convert* could not
be secured.
The battle of tbe day began the momeat tho blind Chaplain had conclude !
his prayer, and it required three hour*
and a half of hard woi k for the Speak, r,
the Committae on l.ules and tho big
army of silver men behind him to drive
back Tracy and hi* handful of Eoldicn*.
Step by step they were beaten and dis­
persed, however, until at 3:30 the fl&lt; or
was cleared for the thirty minutes’ de­
bate, and then the most exciting a *1
important part of the day's scenes w.is
enacted. Seven orators were put lor- ward, four on the side of silver and
three against IL Mr. Heed was given j
the privilege of dividing the 'time for ihe
Hepublican side and Mr. Catchings fur j
the Democrats.
Representative Tracey, of New Torb.j
had lx on selected by the group of antlfree-silver Democrat* to lead the oyjuj
sitiop, and he performed hls task
efficiently as one could, knowing that'La
led a forlorn hope. The free-silver im.n,
fearing filibustering by means of amend­
ments to the journal, an ancient and ap­
proved method by which countless hours
may be slaughtered, thwait.dthisraovement nt the very outset when Mr. Catch­
ings called up his resolution before the
reading of the journal. This was the
first stage of the fight
Mr. Tracey protested that the journal,
nitst bo rend Wore any business cou'd
bo dono. The Speaker ruled that the
point was not well taken, and upon Mr.
Tracey's appeal from this decision thera
occurred the most exciting passage of
tho battle. Mr. Tracey mode a warm
speech In support of his appeal, but in­
cautiously lost tho floor by yielding It to
Mr. Fitch of New York, who also fnvore I
the appeal. When Mr. Tracey tried to
resume hls unflnlkhed argument Speaker
Crisp decided that Tracey had spoken
once on hls appeal, and that under the
rules be could not speak again.
"I have the floor," said Mr. Tracey.
"You haven't the floor," retorted the
Speaker.
"If you mean to say that I want to

"You muat address the Chair respect­
fully."
"I don't want to be looked at in that
tone of voice," cried Mr. Tracey.
The momentary excitement culminat­
ed In a laugh, and then there followed a
colloquy between Mr Cockran and Mr.
Bland as to whether there ligd been a
private agreement between friends and
opponents of the free-Bllver bill that
there should be no filibustering on the
Journal. Mr. Bland'Clalmed that th re
had, but Mr. Cpdcrifa’s memory could
not recall such an agreement.
After some further discussion, during
which Mr. Cleveland's former law part­
ner, Daniel Lockwood, of Buffalo, de­
clared that the rules of this House "are
more arbitrary than the rule* of tho
Fifty-first Congress as applied by
Speaker Beed," Mr. Tracey's appeal
was tabled by a vote of 19:1 to 93. Tracy
made a second appeal from Speaker
Crisp's de Ision and again the Speaker
was sustained.
Mr. Tracey's last move was to recom­
mit tbe resolution, with Instructions lo
the Committee an Bules lo postpone tbo
date for consideration of the silver bill
to Dee. 12. As soon as this motion wo*
defeated the anti-silver men gave up tho
fight, and tho question come directly
before the House upon the adoption of
Mr. Catchings' resolution.

Not a hundred miles from the shadow
of the water work’s stand pipe, there
dwells a young lady, and among her
suitors there was a young man upon
whom she looked apparently with
favor. They became engaged, and
the time was fixed for the marriage.
The happy young man shortly after­
wards gave his prospective bride a
sum of money which was to go to­
wards furnishing their new home.
But there was a quarrel and the en­
gagement was broken. However, the
lovers came tc an understanding and
the engagement was renewed, i nly to
be broken and renewed, and renewed
and broken until the nunv-r of en­
gagements had counted up ’o four.
Realizing at last that the girl was
trifling with him, the young man sug­
gested that they part forever, which
the girl agreed to.
"Wait a moment,” said the young
lady, and disappearing, she tripped
back and placed in hls hands a roll of
money.

There has been a find of silver-bear­
ing ore easily washed and in sufficient
quantities to bring good returns.
There are, at present, four producers,
working, outside and in, but 300 men
at 53 a day each, or 81 less than is paid
in other mines. As soon as the
necessary tramways and shutes are
completed so that the ore can be
loaded direct from the mines into tbe

loss of life as well as the destruction
of property. A cloud-burst, such as
are so often seen in the mountains,
would send down a roaring, seething
wall of water that would sweep the
two towns from the face of the earth,
and hundreds of graves would be
marked "unknown,** containing tho
bruised and battered forms of the
victims of man’s greed and their own
lust after wealth. The State author­
ities already recognize this danger,
and are considering means to avoid it.
The daily dispatches from this
camp announce the hundreds daily
arriving, but say nothing of the
nearly equal

coast in the world.
The United States devotes more at­
tention to lights and light houses than
to lifeboats. Last year there were 1,152
light-house keepers In half as many
houses, and drawing salaries of $8U0 to
$1,000 each.
Tho discipline of the ’
light-house brigade is strict in the extrsme, and a light house is probably the
only portion of United Stales territory
where prohibition is . strictly enforced.
The light-hou«e keeper must not become
intoxicated, he must not let his light go
out, he must, under no circumstances,
desert his station. 'These ore three
offenses which can be neither extenu­
ated or pardoned. The keepers lead
solitary but not unpleasant lives; they
arc provided with reading n utter by the
Government, and In exposed situations,
their rations and fuel are furnished. In
the sea light houses—that is to say,
those established on shoals at some dis­
tance from the land—they are sometimes
cutoff from all communication for weeks
at a time. But they are seldom in
danger, and rarely have any of that,
thrilling excitement incident to the life
of the sailor who volunteers in the crew
of a lifeboat._The character of our
„f
coast is in most parts quite different
from that of Great Britain. ' Commerce
io this country follows beaten tracks,
and although lifeboat* are Fonietimes
necessary, and American sailors are
quite as dav.’.g in their efforts to save
life as are the seamen of any other na­
tion, they are fortunately not so fre­
quently called into this dangerous though

DR. SCUDDER’S CASE.

Chicago special: Every day brings to
light some new and startling fact In con­
nection with the Scudder-Dunton trag­
edy. What appeared at first to be a very
ordinary murder, growing out of a com­
monplace family quarrel, is fast devel­
oping into a Fcnxntional crime, beside
which even the bloody Cronin conspir­
acy is dwarfed. If one-half the state­
ments which are now alleged can be
sustained in court. Dr. Scudder is either
a crafty, scheming maniac or the most
brutal and bloodthirsty villain that ever
walked tbe streets of Chicago. His
friends are trying hard to prove that he
is crazy—the proof of murder being so
strong that they do not hope for acquit­
tal on any other ground. Dr. Scudder ,
is the son of the ex-pastor of the Ply­
mouth £oDgregatlanal Church, and is a
skilled ana successful practitioner. '
• Last September ho married Dora Dun­
ton, the adopted daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. F. H. Dunten, owners of the Spirit
of the Turf, Ln this city. Mrs. Dunton,
although an invalid, and near to death
with a bod ease of tumor, was the active
nmnng r of the paper and all the prop­
erty, valued at $125,000, stood In he^
name. The securing of this property Is
the alleged motive for Dr. Scudder's
crime. Mr. and Mrs. Dunton bad no
direct heirs, nnl Mrs. Dunton, who had
been told by her physicians that she
could not live six months more, made a
will, leaving the estate to her husband,
and at his death to Dr. Scu Ider’s wife..
.Knowing that his mother-in-law eould.
live but a little while, Dr. Scudder tried
about February 18 last to poison Mr.
Dunton, so as to bring the property dlrectly into his control at Mrs. Dun­
ton’s*death. By rouie providential In­
terference the dose, while It made Mr.
Dunton deathly sick, did not have a
fatal effect. Finding that his plan in
this direction bad failed. Dr. Scudder,
on the pretext of having some small be­
quests made to other members of tho
family, got Mrs. Dunton to consent to
make a new will in which her husband
was again the principal beneficiary. Ho
had the will carefully drawn and Mrs.
Duton was so well pleased with tho
changes that she signed It at once, the
witnesses being Dr. Scudder himsolf,
his 14-ycar-old daughter and a youthful
neice of Mrs. Dunton's. Going down
stairs soon after Dr. Scudder called tbe
two girls and told them they had signed
the will In the wrong place and must
write their names again. Child-like,
they thought nothing of thia, and thus
Dr. Scudder secured their signatures aa
witnesses to a forged will wh.ch be “rung
in" on them, and by which his wife was
mads tho foie legatee of the Dunton
fortune. This was on Saturday. Feb.
20. It was now to the Doctor’s interest
to get Mrs. Dunton out of the way aa
soon as possible kst the children should*
chance to mention the “mistake* in sign­
ing the will and thus arouse suspicion.
The next day, Bunday, Fob. 21, he went
to the Dunton heme, onlAldine Square,
and b*-at Mrs. Dunton’s brains out. Mr.
Dunton saw him do it and attempted to
Interfere, but Scudder pushed him out of
the room, having as he did so the bloody
mark of his hand on Mr. Dunton’s night­
robe.
Hannah Johnson, a domestic,
also saw the murder committed. Dr.
Scudder has been indicted by the Grand
Jury for murder.

"I've found a New York paper nt Inst,
much to my surprise. I did not believe
this place could boost the possession of
one.
"But now that you know it can, your
opinion of us Is raised, I dare say. We
are slightly civilized, you see." ’
Jack made no comment upon Mary's
decidedly sarcastic words, but throwing
himself ujK-n the grass beside her, he
began to unfold his paper. Presently
changing his mind be refolded It and
turning toward her said, somewhat ir­
relevantly:
“Do you ever grow lonely here?"
She looked at him with some surprise,
and answered with unusual decision:
"Never. It la just the life I love. I
have grandpa and the-horses. If I were
obliged to live in the city I firmly believe
J would lose my mind. But of course
' you can’t, understand such perverted
taste. You think New York heaven." "The next thing to it," was the imper­
turbable answer. "If one could only have
all the money one could spend.”
"Most-people don’t know when they
have enough," returned the wise Mary.
"The more they have the more they
want. What Is money, anyway? If I
have enough to cat and n horse'- to ride
I am satislled. I don't care for dressing
—-not a snap of my finger. I could have
as nice dresa&lt;*H as most girls, if I wished
for them, but I don’t, and I haven’t met
'the man or woman yet whom I would
take the least trouble tor. Now I am
going to join grandpa. I see him in the
walk over there. You may do as you
please."
"Thanks," said Jack, gravely, rining to
his feet; "then I have an ungraciouH per­
mission to fellow you? Won't yotPtry to
treat me a little more kindly? Make an
effort, n« Mra. Chick would say. By-theway, you are not acquainted with Mrs.
Chick."
"No. I think I should change my name
were I in her place."
“Do you dislike it? To rue It Is pleas­
antly suggestive."
"I dare say, since Bhc Is your friend."
“Now that you put it quite plainly, I
believe that she is my friend.* I have
sometimes considered the advisability of
falling in love with her."
"The love that stopa to consider Ik
scarcely worth having, "commented Mary.
“I suppose Mra. Chick U a widow. I
don’t admire widows. Does she live in
New York?"
This question, put in nil sincerity, was
rather too much for Jack. Throwing
back his head hr laughed uproariously.
May watched him with growing anger.
"Why do you laugh?" she asked, as
calmly us her feelings would allow.
Jock's only reply wm another uncon­
trollable burst of mirth.
“You are laughing at me!" she cried
with blazing eyefl.
“How dare yo-a
laugh at me? Tell me, tills Instant, what
I have said or done. Tell me, I say."
Her passion uoberod Jack.
"Please forgive me," he Bald peni­
tently. “I am not laughing st you.

“I may as well tell you now that I never

on the subject."
“I hate him!" she cried fiercely to her
own reflection in her mirror that night.
**1 do thoroughly hate him. He thinks
me an ignorant little goose, and bo I am.
I never bo truly despised myself. But
ho sha’n’t remind me of my shortcom­
ings; Indeed, he sbu'n't. I suppose he
thinks I will take anything from him,
because I am a country girl and know
nothing of city ways and manners. He
shall find out his mistake. He sha’n’t
patronize me. If It were not for grandpa.
I’d make this place too hot to hold him."
With this conclusion she walked to
the window, and, looking down upon the
line of light from the library window,
once more began her self-comments.
“Just as I thought. They are together.
I wonder if grandpa by any possibility
could grow to like him better than me. If
I thought that, I—would hate, him In
earnest."
She compressed, her lipa tightly, and
leaving the window, she paused in tho
center ot the room with an air of irreso­
lution.
Then, growing suddenly determined,
she thrust her bare f*et Into a pair of
well-worn slipper*, and made her way
down a narrow back stairway into the
the room where Jeannette was making
preparations for bed.
"Mercy, save us," cried the Homewhai
startled woman, as the flying figure
burst rather precipitately upon her.

“Pooh," commented Jeannette, with
some contempt.
“Don’t pogh jne, Jeannette; I hate it.
You know nothing about it. You don't
know about Mrs. Chick and all the other
atKuninable women he’s alw^ya bringing
up, just to have me ask about them, and
show -what an ignoramus I am. I can't
imagine why you or grandpa did not
make me read whin I waa young."
“It was as much
mortal could do to
make you learn your letters. That wore
me terrible.”
“I wish," continued Mary, undisturbed
by this explanation, "I wish I know
every book by heart, good and bod alike.
Wouldn’t I make his hair stand on end

enough for you to look horrified. I ddn’t

" I must have laughed, if it had hap­

broke off abruptly, skipping from the
bed and standing before Jeannette, with
a proud air—"can it be possible that you
think him better than we are? Because
he isn't. Let mo tell you, I do not con­
sider him my superior by any means,
and, as for grandpa, his equal has not
been created yet. What is your opinion
now?"
"My opinion Is, you’d better go to bed,
instead of sitting here, talking a pack of
nonsense. If you go on as you’ve been
doing, I don’t know what Mr. Beverly
will think of you."
"And I don’t care," rejoined Mary,
sharply. “I dare Bay ho doesn’t trouble
himself to think of me at all.”
"Most likely not,” was the provoking
reply. “He has too many other girls to
think of, let alone ySu."
"Of course he has. Didn't I make the
same remark a second ago? There's no
necessity for you to repeat it—none at
all. I can't Imagine what has put you
in such a disagreeable humor. Do sleep
it off, for mercy's sake."
The conclusion ot this speech was lost
In the noise of the door, which Mary
closed with a bang after her.
“How provoking Jeannette can be
sometimes!" she soliloquized, hastening
along the hall. "I'm afraid her supper
disagreed with her."
“Whose supper?” inquired a voice from
the surrounding dorknecH.
“You," cried Mary, facing Jack.
“What a faculty you have for putting
yourself where you are not wanted!"
“Come, Miss Mary, that is very se­
vere. I am going to my room, and
there i§ no other way, I believe. I over­
heard your remark. If it is a case of
Indigestion I have au infallible cure."
“It Is not a case of indigestion—mere­
ly a case of being disagreeable."
“Oh. Then I suppose Jeannette b»
the offender. What did she say or do?"
"Nothing that concerns you.”
“Are you positive of that?" he asked,
trying-to see the outlines of her face tn
the shadow. 71 thought possibly my
name had been mentioned."
Marj-'s face grew warm, but she man­

“We have other subjects of conversa­

"Good-night, madame."
"BometimM I wish I were one of the

herself upon a chair in her own room.

Several mornings Inter Jock came
down expecting to take his usual ride
with Mary. He found her wtauding be­
fore the stable door, looking slightly
disconsolate. "I'm not going to ride
this morning," she called out, when he
was some yardt* off.

With the close of this school year,
Prof. O. M. McLaughlin completes
two years of work at the head of our
school. They have been years of mer­
ited honor, and we hope profit to him­
self. We are sure they have been val­
uable years to the patrons of our
schools.
He has been enthusiastic
and untiring in his duties; he has re­
garded our schools and worked out a
course of study which has for its end
the fitting of the graduate for the or­
dinary walks of life, or admission to
the best colleges of our state without
further examination. When Mr. Mc­
Laughlin came here It was hard to
find the standing of the pupils; but
with the co-operation of the school
board, he has straightened out the
standing of pupils in the various
gradesand prepared a book-keeping
the same. Through his efforts a gtxxl
laboratory has beene stablishcd and a
literary society kept up.
His work
has always been characterized by ex­
cellent method and ability; as a
teacher, he is of the best; as a man,
he is a strong advocate of principles of
right and in him our young people
have always found a life worthy of
imitation. He has concluded to at­
tend the Michigan university next
year, which is the cause of his sev­
ering his connection with our schools.
Concerning his successor, the school
board have tendered the position of
superintendent to Prof. Harry An­
drus, of Hastings, an educator of
trominence in this part of the state,
it comes to us very highly recom­
mended and with an experience that
jives us an assurance that he will
teep up the high standing our schools
have attained.

BLAND'S BILL.

THE

Tlir M&lt;Marc Tiaouaht to H»to liven
KlUod by a Midnight Adjournment—
KwelUng FltllMislariuc to D«S»Bt the
Silver -BUL

Tin n Drawn fight.
According to a Washington dispatch
the free •liter bill is defeated, the House
having adjourned without a vote on the
bill. Thia ended the legislative day for
which the special order waa made, and
the Bland bllj now has no more rights
in the Hous? than any other measure.
In all probability it will not be taken up
again in this session of Congress.
Mr. Bland hopes to get another spe­
cial order from the Committee on Bules,
but the chances are decidedly against
him. Gen. Warner, the chief lobbyist
for the bill, admitted that the bill was
defeated. This is without much ques­
tion the end 'of the great campaign of
the ailverites in this Congress.
The closing of the. contest was mniked
by great excitement and bitterness.
Frequently the House was in such con­
fusion as to require the naalstance of
sergoants-at-arma to clear the floor, and
the great mace, which In used only on
rare occasions, was paraded up and down
the aisles as a warning to turbulent
members. On the morning of the last
day of the discussion the antl-sllver
forces were willing to concede their de­
feat, At midnight they were confident
of ultimate victory. Three tin.es during
the night they routed the enemy, but
each time the free silver forces rallied
and left the final result in doubt. Speaker
Crisp was once compelled to vote in­
order to eave the bill from defeat, an
effort which availed nothing in the fuco
of the determined opposition of the
Northern»and Northwestern Democrats.
The silver battle in the House began
in earnest at 5 o'clock in the evening.
• All afternoon the orators had been
making speeches. - This was simply the
cannonading, but from 5 o'clock on the
opposing forces met in a bitter hand-to-.
hand conflict. No such fierce aud bitter
struggle has been seen in the House for
many a year. On &lt; ne side was Bland,
calm and confident, anticipating an
easy victory. On the floor was General
Warner, the chief of the silver lobbyists,
radiantly looking forward to a triumph
over the hated gold-bugs. Behind the
silvur leaders was a strong and de­
termined force of Democrats, chiefly
from the South and West, but with a
scattering of votes in Ohio, Indiana,
Southern Illinois, Michigan, and Iowa.
They were joined by a handful of Bepuldlcans from the far West. In all
they were about one hundred and fifty
strong.
Array&lt;?d against them were
eighty Democrats from Now England
and the Northern and Northwestern
States and seventy Republicans. These
anti-silver forces were led by Tmcy and
Cochran of New York, Harter and
Outhwaltc of Ohio, for tho Democrats,
and Tom Heed, Burrows, and Abner
Taylor for the Republicans.
At different times during the night's
battle 3Cl) members voted. Of these 80
were Republicans, 212 Democrats, and 8
Farmers' Alliance. Of the 80 Republi­
cans all but seven voted to lay the Bland
bill on tho table. Tho seven pro-silver
Republicans were Bowers of California,
C’ark .of Wyoming. Vincent Taylor of
Ohio, Lolley of South Dakota, Pickier
of North. Dakota, Townsend of Colo­
rado, and Bartine of Nevada.
Of the 212 Democrats, seventy-eight
voted against Bland. All the Demo­
crats from Now England, all those from
New York, excepting Rockwell, who
voted on tho advice of Senator Hill; all
those from New Jersey,- excepting Fow­
ler; all from Pennsylvania, excepting
Beiily, were against tho bill. Maryland
was solid against Bland, with the ex­
ception of Mr. Compton, who voted on
one roll-call and then disappeared. Mr.
Wilson, of West Virginia, was the-only
member from that State to vote against
.Bland. Ohio Democrats gave 9 votes
[for Biand and 3 against, with Donovan
■dodging and Tom Johnson voting both
ways. Tho three antl-sllver men were
Outhwaite, Harter and Patti»on.
All the Democrats from Indiana voted
with Bland, two or three .of them ro'luctantly.
' Of the Michigan Democrats, Chip­
man, Stout and Wheeler voted against
-Bland. Mr. Babbitt was the only man
in tiro Wisconsin delegation to vote
with tho Blandites.

Against Bland—Newberry, McGann

Busey voted twice with Bland, and
then arranged a pair with Mr. Springer.
■On the first roll-call Snow and Scott
voted with Blan.d, but afterward paired,
Mr. Snow desiring to change his vote.
Mr. Durborow was paired, but reached
the hall just before midnight, with his
gripsack in his hand, eager for an op­
portunity to go on record against free

All tho Illinois Republicans voted
against Bland, including General Post,
whois a free coinage man.
The Iowa Democrats divided, Hayes.
Seerley, and Bowman voting against
Bland.
Kansas and Nebraska were
solidly for the bill, Mr. Funston’s vote
being a surprise. Tom Reed attempted
to whip the Kansan into line, but was
unable to do so. Only one Missourian,
Mr. Cobb, voted against Bland. Only
two Democrats from the extreme South­
ern States, Brawley, of South Carolina,
and Meyer, of Louisiana, voted against
Bland. Al! the Fanners’ Alliance memben voted for free silver.

TlntRIClH

When a contagious disease is con­
tracted in New York City, the patient
is Immediately hustled off to tho con­
tagious disease hospital at North
Brother Island.
North Brother Island Is at the ex­
treme north end of the archipelago
In the East River, and Is dotted wit h
Institutions for the suffering and the
criminal of the city. It is cut off
from the-Fordham shore by only 700’
yards of water, too short a distance,
perhaps, for absolute safety to the
Inhabitants of the city. Yet thq giitli
of water which divides it from the
shore irf an effective guarantee against
anything but a general epidemic.
The Health Department hospital
boat Franklin Edson, which, has left
the Reception Hospital, at the foot
of East Sixteenth street, daily for the
past eight weeks, invariably convey­
ing one or two or more afflicted pas­
sengers for North Brother Island, has
had on every trip to pass this string
of refuges.
North Brother Island is the dump­
ing ground for typhus-stricken pa­
tients. It is scarcely twelve acres in
extent, and with South Brother
Island, a little less in size, almost
fills the Sound opposite 138th street.
It is not unlike a reclaimed sand bank.
In combating the typhus epidemic
the Health Department has erected
a number of walled tents on North

Brother Island for the treatment
both of suffering and convalescent
patients. The plan of housing pa­
tients In open structures of this
kind is comparatively modern, and
some eminent authorities claim that
patients down with the fever are
more likely to be cured in structures
of this character than in brick or
stone buildings. In tents, the au­
thorities claim, the ventilation is
better, as the patients in them en­
joy the advantage of a constant cir­
culation of pure air without being
exposed to any draughts.
Chief
Clerk Craig explained the course of
treatment to which a typhus patient
was subjected from the time of quar­
antining until a slate of convales­
cence find edre was reached.
“Now, let us suppose," said Mr.
Craig, "that Dr. Edson has received
notice bf"postal card addressed to tbe
Health Board from a tenement house
in this city that a certain person, say
a7-year-old child, is suffering from
contagious disease of some kind.
Dr. Edson sends an expert examiner
of the department immediately to
determine the disease.' The disease
is determined as scarlet fever. The
physician finds that the child is at­
tending school. He decides that it
must be removed from home. The
mother protests. He gives her the
option of dressing and coming along
with her child. Maybe she comes,
maybe she doesn’t. The child is
taken in an ambulance, the house
disinfected and all clothes removed
in a wagon. The child is taken to
the Willard Parker Hospital, where
the mother can remain until the pa­
tient is discharged. Just as soon as
Dr. Edson has notice of the case he
sends to the principal of the school
the child attended notice of the out­
break of the disease aad instruction
not to allow any members of the fam­
ily to attend.
“If the case was defined as one of
typhus the patient would be taken
in an ambulance to the foot of East
Sixteenth street to the Reception

Hospital. Here the patient would
undergo a special system of disinfec­
tion established by the ton rd. The
hospital itself is protected from the
street by a high fence. Once within
the building the patient is stripped
of all clothing and put into one sec­
tion, where he is kept foe transmis­
sion to the Island. The rooms are
divided by a galvanized partition, and
his clothing and effects are left in the
other section for ‘baking’ or destruc­
tion as the department may see fit.’’
Mr. Craig thus described the proc­
esses of ‘•liaking"‘’and destroying.
The former is a system of disinfection
with bichloride of mercury, includ­
ing inclosure of thceffests in a retort,
which absolutely renders tjiem safe
for use on a future occasion. The
latter, of course, means absolute de­
struction by burning.
This Is also a recognized system in
the transmission of patients to North
Brother Island. Half of the Recep­
tion Hospital rests on the dock, and
patients have merely to be shifted
out of it into the little steamer
Franklin Edson that conveys them
up the Sound. The vessel Is a minia­
ture hospital and everything Is pro­
vided in it for the comfort of the
patient.
•
On approaching North Brother Isl­
and a system of signals is inter­
changed between the boat and the
shore. A long and a short whistle
from the steamer announce that ty­
phus is on board the little vessel;

three short blasts announce small­
pox; two, scarlet fever; and four,
measles. Yesterday afternoon fortu­

"About three mile* from here."
"Have you been three miles this morn­

Mary bit her lip at her mistake.
"I did not say I hod gotten It this
morning, grandpa," was her rather lame
explanation.
aNo; I thought you hod not. bad your
ride. Toby told roc last night that he
had forgotten your saddle. The poor
old fellow was really
distressed
about it"
"Ho need not have felt so bad," re­
joined Mary, looking up to find Jack’s
eyes upon her.
Something in their
glaoe was a revelation to her. The hot
blood mounted to her brow, and an over­
mastering seiAe of shame swept over
her. In the first bitter rush of this feel­
ing, aha left the table precipitately.
"Grandpa, I’m not hungry, and not
well. Please excuse me."
These declarations, delivered in de­
cidedly jerky tones, caused Mr. Millard
to glapce up In Home surprtae.
.
"Not well?" he repeated, fixing his
eyes upon her face; "my dearest, you
make me anxious."
"So like you, grandpa,
be anxious
for nothing. Upon reflection, I. feel
wonderfully well, and have a very groat
appetite." With which assertion the
contradictory Mary returned to her
place and reveled in the highest spirits
during the rest of the meal. Only oc­,
casionally, when by some chance she
encountered Jack’s glances, she colored
warmly, and dropped her eyes in painful
embarrassment.
Her
grandfather,
watched her gravely.
“I fear Mary is somewhat feverish,"
he observed, with much anxiety, to,
Jeannette, after breakfast; "the child is
always so well that her slightest Indis­
position alarms me."
"Indisposition," repeated the practical
Jeannette, "I call It temper, sir. Don’t
you worry about Miss Mary; I haven’t
known her all these years for nothing."!
The gentleman appeared unconvinced,
but be said no more upon the subject.
Meanwhile, tho object of tills mingled
blame and solicitude was crouched In
the depths of her grandfather's choir.
Hearing Jack's step she snatched up
the book closest at hand, and. without,
seeing a word before her, pretended to
read.
“Is it Interesting?" ho asked, crossing
tho room with the air of one not quite
certain of his reception.
Mary mode no answer, and Jack ap­
proaching more closely, read tho title
over her shoulders. "So you read Homer
in the original?*’ he said, very quietly.
Closing her book • with a snap, she
turned upon him; “I want to ask you a
question,” she said in a voice of sup­
pressed anger. "Not Greek, but plain
English, and I wish a plain answer.
What did you mean by the look you
gave me at breakfast? No evasion
please. You know I took a ride this
morning?" An inclination of his head
ggvo an almost imperceptible assent to
her question. Bhe understood it, how­
ever.
“Ton know," she repeated, biting her
lips fiercely. “How did you know? Did
you—see me?" Bhe brought out her
words with dlfflculity, and again Jack
assented.
"Where?" came more sharply than be­
fore. "Starting or—on the way?"
"On the way, since you will know the
truth."
Her eyes fell, and once more the hot
color burned In her cheeks.
“Thank you, Mr. Beverly," she cried,
storting up with a passionate gesture,
“I have another remark to make. It Is
plain English, too. I hate you.”
“Don't go," he pleaded, os she tried to
pass him. “You forced me to tell you.
You really did. I'm awfully sorry.

“Sorry for what?"
“Why, for being there, and—and see­
ing you," he returned, taken at a alight
disadvantage.
.
“Sorry for being there and seeing me,"
ahe repeated in a voice suspiciously
near tears, and with her face persistent­
ly lowered.
"What a kindly way to put
it. To spare my feelings, I suppose.
Don’t tty. I have none to spare. I like
unladylike actions. I take to them quite
naturally. I’m not ready to have lessons
in deportment from you yet, and I wish
to gracious you would go where I can’t
“I will, by all means," he responded as
she concluded her half-choked utter­
ances. 'I don’t believe you mean a
word of what you have Bald, though, not
a word. I know----- "
At this point Jack found himself addrvasing empty air. Mary had departed
and for the rest of the morning remained
invisible.
At dinner time she Insisted on remain­
ing in her room, claiming a headache as
an excuse, but when her grandfather,
considerably worried, came to inquire
for himself, oho told him she had never
felt better, insisting, notwithstanding,
on having dinner in her mom.
Jeannette thought tills a moat repre­
hensible exhibition of self-will, and ex­
pressed her views quite strongly to the

slightly vexed tone. 'I
i't let him do it, Jcan-

peniuade him to prolong his visit."
"Don't you think we should consider
Mr. Beverly, grandpa? Think bow* long
he has been Itured by us alruady and
spare him further Infliction."
Jack bit his lips, and turning from the
window, where his Angers’ bad been
playing an idle tattoo, he addressed
himself to Mr. MJllard:
"I have already Imposed too long on
your kind hospitality. My visit has been
so thoroughly enjoyable that I cut It
abort with regret, and if any one haa
been bored, Miss Mary has been the suf­
ferer, I fear.1*
His glance sought tho brown eyes,
bending over the worsted, but Mary’s
work was evidently all-absorbing.
"We will not discuss your departure
any further to-night," responded Mr.
Millard, slightly pained at Ids grand­
daughter’s manner. "To-morrow, 1 hope,
will find you willing to give us at least a
few days more of your company. I be­
lieve neither Mary nor myself Is quite
willing to let you go yet. Mary, why
will you spoil your eyes over that
work? Put It aside, my dear, aud give
us some mualo. Jack has never hoard
you Hing."
“And he never will, grandpa. You
know perfectly well that 1 don’t pretend
to sing, and that I never, under any cir­
cumstances, sing for any one but you."
"Nonsense, my dear, you have an ex­
cellent natural voice. Jack will agree
wfth me, I am sure. If you will give him
an opportunity to judge. I fear ho may
think you have no accomplishments."
"He knows" better," she answered,
with slightly darkening eyes. 'He knows
I-can swim, and row, and ride"—she
half paused after naming this last ac­
complishment, and, giving Jack a de­
cidedly defiant glance, added, calmly—
The next second she caught her
grandfather's eyes fixed upon her in
perplexed surprise, and with a remorse­
ful air and a painful blush, she said,
rather penitently:
"When you-look at mein that way I
tael like a savage. I am a savage, any­
way, and plenty of others would be, too,
if they dared. I hate people who won’t
do things simply because the world con­
demns them. They arc nothing but
hypocrites. They’d break a command­
ment of God sooner than commit a
breach of etiquette. They are bound
by such a wall of trusts and mistrust,
that they lose every grain of individual­
ity, and become such insufferable prigs
that I should find it tiresome to look at.
’them.”
Mary concluded tills somewhat forci­
ble expression of her views with flashing
eyes and a gesture of the hand that gave
her words an impassioned emphasis.
Then settling back in her chair she once
more bent over her work. 'Jack did not
attempt to conceal the admiration her
attitude aroused in him, but her grand­
father watchbd her more gravely.
"Don’t mind this, Jack,” ho said at
last; ‘I understand my little girl thor­

“So do I,” responded Jack much to

“Stay, of course,"returned Mary, feel­
ing that he hod taken some of her spirit
with her work. "I have some Idea of po­
liteness.”
"The last part of your sentence rather
spoils the first. Do you flr«V politeness

"I'm not capable of Judging. I know

He elevated his brows very slightly.
"Needn't I?" he asked. "May I toll
you just why and how for I should like
to concern myself in ^our regard?"
He asked this last question pointedly,
and with a new earnestness upon his
face. Her eyes drooped. Something in
bis glance warned her, and rather pre­
cipitately she left her chair and walked
to the window. Yet even in the dim
light he saw tho vivid color that dyed
her face, aud made a mental note of the
fact. .
In the moment that followed he had
time to think. He was not a man given
to impulse. Never before had he been
conscious of a feeling stronger than
simple admiration for any woman. But
for this unconventional, self-willed little
country girl he felt something deeper.
Just what he scarcely paused to analyse.
He was content to wait until time should
make him surer.
These reflections passed through his
mind with the rapidity of light, and the
next miouto he had joined Mary at the
window.
\
"Let us have a light,* he said briskly.
"This twilight is melancholy. Do you
think I can manage those lamps without
blowing up the houSe?’’
“I think you had bettor not try,"
answered Mary turning from her con­
templation of the landscape outside.
“I will light them, if you will close the
blind*."
When Mary ran in to klaa her grand­
father good-night, Hhe placed* her «rms
about his neck with unusual affection,
whispering ns she did bo:
"I pained you to-night, grandpa; I
know I did. I kiii worry for it. So very
sorry. I don’t know why I should have
been in such an ill-humor, but I was,
and I do find it so hard to feel one way
and act anstker. I intend to do bettor
after this. Indeed I do. Now, kiss- me
and say you forgive me.” .

them to procure food enough to sustain them.

“It is very curious to listen to tho re­

a reception.” said an attache df the
White House to me recently. “I have
stood on more than one occasion beyond

paying attention to such observations.
One visitor will say, 'He Is not such a
very little mon, after alt!’ Another will
ejaculate, ‘He doesn’t Icok at all like
most of the caricatures of him in tho

mark, 'What a pleasant old gentleman!’
And so It goes, each person having hla

“It seems to me very queer that com­
paratively few of the strangers who
come to tho White .House’ know how to
address tho President. ■ Of course, the
proper form is, ‘How do you do, Mr.
President?” But I am constantly asked
by people who/eel nervous about meet­
ing the chief executive what they ought
to say to him. Many are so embar­
rassed that they make no remarks what­
ever. I remember that on one occasion
an elderly person, evidently from rural
parts, rushed up to me and cried, ‘I
voted for your grandfather years ago,
and I voted for you Ln 1888. Hope I
may have a chance to help elect still
another member of the Harrison family

less, ho had prepared the speech care­

neral, threatens to break out again.
This time it is in tho House Committa
on Accounts. It appears that the enter­
prising firm of undertakers in Knoxville,
Tenn., who were tho “fuqeral directors"
on the occasion of the late Congressman
Houk’s "burial, have considered the
United States Government a customer
that might bo chargod “special rates."
They have sent a bill for $1,974.90 os the
total cost of burying the dead legislator.
As a general thing, no questions are
asked by the sub-committee which
audits the .funeral bill, but this year the
committee, with the recollection of the
many severe criticisms made over tho
Hearst funeral, determined to examino
tho accounts closer than is ordinarily
.done. The members of tho committee
found to their surprise that the enter­
prising undertakers bad inserted Items
in their bill like this: “Burial casket,
f$l,2O0; trimmings, $200; draping the
church, $50; stenographer at church,
$16; photographs. $31." It occurred to
the members of the committee that
$l,2(Xf for a burial casket was rather too
high a figure. They made inquiries, and
learned that the most expensive casket
of which they could bo informed war the
so-called Bpear casket, which costs $550.
.They also, by looking .over the.bills for
tho Senate funeral expenses, found that
the Hearst casket had only cost $200,
and yet tho Hearst fnnerol had been
expensive.

the expenses of her husband’s burial and
offeree to do »o before the amount was
made known, but she was promptly In­
formed by the,undertakers that she need
not concern horse If about it, as “the

The Committee on Accounts proposes
to put a stop to this system o£ indefinite

that they must give a very definite ac­
count of tije $200 worth of "trimmings,”
of which no one seems to know any­
thing, and that they must cut down their

That the Mormon proselyting which has

She married again, and at tbe death of her
second husband she ascertained that her
second marriage deprived her of the bene­

learned that her second marriage was biga­

at the time of hl* marriage to her. This
marriage, she thinks, can be set aside a*

Is a rich combination of velvet and
woolen material. Tho under dress is
lined with tatinette or alpa&lt; a, and te
gathered In at the waist, and there is an
embroidered plastron. The velvet Jacket
has a very stylish and refined air about
It, and is slightly belted in with a gal*
loon cord. '1 h .* basques are split up as
shown. The wide collar and deep cuffs,
all embroidered In harmony with the
plastron, give an air of distinction to
thia little costume that is not without
its effect upon King Jamie's playmates.
If you have a liking for a Greenaway
costume, which Is, as a rule, more pic­
turesque than comfortable for little
folks, you may make It up in flannel,
using no sid? pieces, only back and
front, and closing it nt the back. Three
box pleats extend tbe full length m
front, and you add a tiny little bolero
jacket and trim it, and tho collar and
cuffs and also tbo bottom of tbe skirt,
excepting the pleats, with baby velvet
ribbon.
No part of a child’s dress calls for the

huge extinguisher? Hamlet says: “Your
hat to its right use, 'tie for the head!"
But mammas seem to think it should
cover the whole body. Then again, a
hat that a child might w ar in a ear­

promenade. In fact, many of these
heavy medlievai costumes designed for
children nowadays are grievous bur­
dens for the little toddlers- when it
comes to walking with them, and they,
no doubt, in many coses contribute to­
wards making the chile, ungainly and
lead him to turn his toes in. My last
illustration pictures a very pretty hat
for a little miss of K or 10, a light­
gray felt, tho wide brim of which is
turned well up at the back. The trim­
ming consists of bows of coral velvet
and gray feathers, which spring from
the bow placed at the front. At the
back, under the turned-up brim, you
place a bow of the ribt»on. The front of
the brim is gracefully bent, as shown.
Home one has said that there a:e no
more little boys nowadays; they are all
grown-up gentlemen, at least so far an
th-ir clothes go, prim, proper, and prig­
gish. They are either all in velvet, like
that g rl-boy. Little Lord Fauntleroy,
or else they wear ooate and vests mod­
eled strictly after their fathers* or big
brothers', which take from them, as this
critic compla'ns, ail the true boyish look.
But, while I must admit that there is
somewhat of truth In this criticism, it is
prolably too sweeping. For Instance,
I saw a little man wearing what is known
as a jccker suit the other day. and it

Having fhipped wool tomatern mar­
ket- for aale the past ten years, I
would make tbe following suggeatlona
to the farmers uf Michigan in regard
to tbe putting up of their wool tbe
coming season.
It is a well established fact that
Michigan fleece wool, owing to the
poor washing, stuffing of fleeces, and
Jhe unlimited amount of large, heavy
twine used in putting up these words,
ha* been brought into bad repute
with the manufacturers in the East.
If our farmOTs would market their
line wool in an unwashed state, and
take off heavy tag* and all foreign
matter, and at. the same time use
small linen twine it would* enhance
the value, and the producer would ob­
tain more for bls clip than he would
as It Is now put up. If the producer
does not adopt a fairer method of put­
ting up wools, buvers will certainly in­
sist on having each fleece epened and
examined, the same as Australian
wools are bought and sold. Austral­
ian wools are cheaper today to the
customer than fleece wools, simply be­
cause almost every fleece of our wool •
contains a quantity of stuff that will
not go into fine goods.
It is most essential to the wool
growers of our state that they use
every effort to Improve the condition
of their clips, and put them up in n
fair manner, or it will only be a ques­
tion ota few years before our wools
will be entirely Ignored and have no
value compared with other wools
raised throughout this country. It Is
a fact that our wools have been de­
clining tn price lor a number of years,
and in a larger proportion even than
territory or Texas wools.
I trust tbe read era of this paper who
are interested in the wool industry of
our state will see tbe absolute neces­
sity of bringing our wools back into
favor with the manufacturers and
thus enhance the Interests of all con­
cerned.
Growers may get tbe proper twine
by asking their dealers'to Write to
the Wool and Cotton Reporter, 19
Pearl street, Boston, who will have
tbe manufacturers send them samples
with prices.

In all countries where earthquakes
are of common &lt; ccurreuce the a: t of
constructing buildings in such a way
as to resist the effect of the shocks
has been studied, and, as always hap­
pens, experience has proved the best
teacher. An extraordinary opportu­
nity to compare the strength of build­
in-, s thus made with others built after
the ordinary European fashion was
furnished by the terrible earthquake
in Japan last October.
Professor John Milne, one of the
foremost authorities &lt;»n the subject of
earthquakes, studied the effects of
yils great shock, which destroyed
over 40,000 houses, and reports that
“In many places so-called ‘foreign’
buildings of brick and stone, undoubt­
edly put up in the flimsiest manner,
lie as heaps of ruin between Japanese
buildings yet standing."
Some of the Japanese castles and
temples escaped, though situated
within the district where the shock
was most destructive.
Professor
Milne attributes this in the case of
the castles to their pyramidal form
and to the moats that surround them,
and in tbe case of the temples to the
multiplicity of Joints between the
roof and the supporting columns, the
effect of which was to produce a “baskctrllke yielding" when the temples
were shaken by the earthquake, thus
preventing tbe breaking of the walls.
In some of tho Western States
where tornadoes occur a similar prob­
lem is presented, but so far no method
of constructing a house that will en­
able it to resist the tornado's fury has
been Invented, and the only alterna­
tive has been to dig underground
chambers near the houses, into which
families can flee for safety.
Probably a Japanese would con­
sider one ot our tornadoes as a thing
far more to be dreaded than the earth­
quake of his native country.

There is usually n'little crowd of people
who know this habit of tho President's,
about tho N street entrance when ho
drives up. They are few, however, and
very respectful. Usually tho President
is accompanied by his wife, sometimes
by Mrs. McKee, sometimes by Dr. Scott,
tho venerable father of Mrs. Harrison—
sometimes Dy both. Tho entrance to
tho church is usually so quietly made
that few people ore aware of it until tho
family are eafely ensconced in their pew.
Dr. Hamilne, who Lb the pastor of tho
President’s church. Is a comparatively
young man, a graduate of one of tho
great educational Institutions of the
country, a close studtnt and a hard
worker. His sermons are nil carefully
prepared, and delivered from manu­
script. but so well delivered that tho
listener seldom thinks of the fact that
they are being read. Dr. Hamllno does
not allow the fact that he has a Presi­
dent and many other people of social
and official distinction in his congrega­
tion to ton© down his presentation of
gospel truths.
The income of the Church of tho
Covenant is a very handsome sum. The
pews bring a rental of from §25 to §40
per annum for each person occupying
them, and the morning collection runs
pretty well up to a §100 a Sabbath. Dr.
Hamllno receives a salary of §0,000 a
year, and has often been offered more
than that to go elsewhere. It' 1* stated

OTSEGO’S FAIR FORTY
HOW MICHIGAN WOMEN BUILT
LIBRARY.

CCORDING to
Otsego, Mich.,cor­
respondence In the
Chicago Tribune,
the town of Oteego the other night took a stop in put­
ting on metropolitan airs. For some
time past there have l»ecn Intimations
that Otsego Is not the slow-going,
every-day town through which trav­
elers pass and forget.
Up to date whatever heights the
town has reached is due to the unique
energies of the women. The climax
of these energies was reached when
the forty women who went into
schemes a short time ago to raise
money to pay for the library building
that Is just completed met their, hus­
bands, sisters, .cousins, and neighbors
in the town hall and told them how
each did her work.
Togo back to the beginning. £
year ago tbe women of Otsego con­
cluded to build a library bullcMng,
where they could go and read or get
books to take home. Thek husbands
and brothers took the newspapers,
and were contented with that chan­
nel of Information. The women of
Otsego are credited with lx?Ing a lit­
tle more literary In their tastes than
the women of any other town of its
size. It is said that most of them
write for the papers and magazines
and paint and sing, while a few of
them are linguists.
The town contains 2,000 people. It
has two big paper mills, a chair fac­
tory, and is 150 miles from Ann Ar­
bor; wlthlrf an hour’s run of Kalama­
zoo, and about the same distance from
Grand Rapids. It has more rich men
who do nothing for their town than
any two-thousand town in tbe/Vest.
The women moved to the frdhti and
raised the money to build-a pretty
§2,000 structure which is knowfc'as
the Ladles’ Library Association of
Otsego.
The money^ or the big end of it,
was raised by various methods.
There were socials, and dances, and
festivals, and concerts, and lawn par­
ties, and church committees, aud cit­
izens' committees, and so on until
nearly enough was In bank to pay for
the little building which is now com­
plete and furnished, but which as yet
lias not a volume In IL All this was
done by the efforts of Otsego women.
Of course (?) some of the money was
paid by the men folks.
When the last of the furnishings
of tbe L. L. A. were put in the assosocUtlon found
that they lacked
just §40 to cancil all obligetlqns. But
where were they
to get it? They
had planned and
carried out evknown to tbe
ingenuity of tbe

One day two
of the members, unmarried, and out
of their teens, were In the store of

George Eiston blacked boots. Miss
Creyant sold a spring poem to the
editor for a dollar. She probably had
harder work than any of her sisters.
Mrs. Edsell and Mrs. Baker sold shoe,
strings and doughnuts from house to
Ta&lt;vrhouse, and Miss Beard, dressed as an
Ipsh i&gt;eiu&gt;ant girl, sold green emblems
on tho streets on St Patrick’s Day.
Miss Smith also went out as a beg­
gar, and Mrs. Drew and Mrs. Lindsey
“played the organ,” also, on the back
streets. Mrs. ^filler put tbe trim­
mings on a coffin. A bevy of young
ladies went around doing odd jobs,
one washing a milk wagon in the oiy.Af/L
fashloned way, while tjvo others went
/^ro
to the hotel to sew buttons on the
r/rr
clothes of any travelers whose rai­
ment needed anything of the kind.
One pulled a splinter out of a com­
mercial drummer’s finger, for which
he paid tl.
.
.
These, experiences were al! vividly
related by the ladlA at an entertain­
ment In the town hall, when all Ot­
sego and many from Kalamazoo and
other surrounding towns were pres­
ent.
The Otsego women have given
many valuable pointers to their sis­
and they were talking about the ar­ ters throughout the country, and. it
rears of S40. Mr. Mills has probably is passible that the church festival
heard as much absut the Library As­
sociation as any man in town, and
being of a sunny temperament he
said to the two ladies referred to that
he gjicssed the society would have to
raise the residue of money by organ­
izing kissing societies.
One of the ladies asked him how
much he would give

wife would kiss him
for the library fund.
Mills said he would
give five cents for
each osculation.
The offer was not
cold before two lips
Wore puckered be­
fore him, and he
came to time and
paid In bls nickel
“N ext" resjtonded miss itaaaiz ix:ra,
the woman who had been kissed, and
her friend advanced with lips aglow,
received an impression and a nickel
and backed out.
This sort of news travels faster
than electric currents. In less than
an hour it was all over town.
The man who owns tho two pap?r
mills in Otsego Is a Mr. Bardeen. He
is one of the millionaires of the place.
As soon as he heard what Mills was
doing he raised him, with the amend­
ment that Mills was doing it for ad­
vertising his store, and that he, Bar­
deen, would pay 50 cents to every
woman who would come to the pa­
per factory and be kissed by him.
The tide was turqed from Mills’
store Bardeen’s factory. Mills put
up the cry of “foul" on the ground
that Bardeen was a citizen of/ Kala­
mazoo, but Bardeen’s money over­
came the cry. In all probability
Bardeen would have soon contributed,
os per agreement, the necessary
amount had not a
protest come up
from Kalamazoo,
to which were ad­
ded several pro­
tests from Ot­
sego. Some of the
young men of this
place saw their
sweethearts going
to the paper fac­
tory, and it is
said they 1 nfonned him that he had better con­
fine his kisses to Kalamazoo society.
Then several of the women of the
city came down to business. Mrs.
Mills, Mrs. H. L. MiHer, Mrs. P. W.
Travis, Mirs Maggie White, Miss
Hattie Mitchell, Mrs. George Easton-f
Mist Alice Creyant, Mrs. C. W. Edsell,
Mrs. A. D. Baker, Mrs. C. E. Drew,
Mrs. Frank Lindsey, and Miss Matle
Beard said they would l»c so many of
a party of forty to raise 81 each to
pay off the last indebtedness on the
building.
FSrty Ots'go women repprted for
duty and went to work, and each
earned her dollar,
and the jubilee the
other night was for
the purpose of giv­
ing each one of the
forty an opportunity
of telling to the
audience her experi­
ence __

tary of theTuwoclation and editor of
the Otsego Union, bandaged the arm
of a young law st udent who had been
sublxnl with a pair of shears. She
described her treatment and the
effect.
Mrs. Mills, wife of the merchant
who kissed at 5 cents per kiss, took a
mop and step-ladder and washed win­
dows at 20 cents a window.
Mrs. P. W. Travis, Treasurer, and
Mrs. H. L- Miller hired a hand-organ

above the surface of tbe stream. It
consists of forty-eight spans in all.
They are nearly all iron-plate girders,
alternately thirty-five feet and sixtyfive feet long. In the center ot tbo
bridge, immediately above the bed of
the river, is a cantilever span 185 feet
long. Tbe high structure is supported
by towers, which rest upon stone
ledges or rock piers. The dimension
of the totfers at their base la 35 by
100 feet, but they narrow down to 10
by 35 feet at the top.
The lightness of the structure gives
it a spider-web appearance, but it Is
pronounced by practical engineers and
railroad men as being one of tbe most
substantial bridges In the country.
Tbe flooring is twenty-one feet wide,
giving room for a single track and
two narrow footways. The bridge
was thoroughly tested as the work
progressed, and it Is claimed the short
spans will carry two aud a half tons
to the lineal foot, and the longer
ones two tons to the lineal foot.
The history of -dancing from the
earliest times to the present, includ­
ing evenr characteristic national
dance, will be illustrated at the

ances will include the dance of David

dances, the Highland fling, the Irish

Five people were killed outrighL Ten

At Augusta three were killed. One of
those waa a chikl of Will Rhodes. The
child was blown out ot its mother's
arms, and Its bead and body were later
Eloked up a hundred feet apart. Rhodes

were badly hurt. At Kiowa, the Mis­
souri Pacific depot and a large number
of building* were demolished, but no

suffered largely both in loss of life slid

South of Welja.t, llngton William Little’s house waa

South Haven Buffered severely from the
storm, both In the way of material
damage and in the number of lives lost.
The house of John Moorehouse was
leveled to the ground, and Moorehouse
and one child were killed, other mcmhere of the family escaping. John Burmaster's house was crushed like an egg­
shell, and the whole family was killed

Frank Shephard was killed by flying
timbers. A score of other people were
injured In the storm. It is Believed
that not half toe casualties have been
reported. The wires have been down In
all directions, and it will necessarily
take some time to get full reports from
the rural districts. Hundreds of formhousca have been demolished, grana­
ries overturned and grain scattered, and
a large number of cattle and horses
have been sacrificed.
At Norfolk, Neb., the Episcopal Church
was entirely destroyed. . The Congrega­

through tho city three blocks wide and
ten blocks In length. Many wore se­

traveled 150 miles over the richest graz­

small towns and villages.
At Merrill, Wl*., a number of children
from 13 to 15 years old wore assembled
in the German Lutheran Church, when
lightning struck the building, knocking
four of them to the floor. Ottilie Olman

Death came with the storm in Chica­

across the city early In the evening. At
14 and 18 Pearce street, on the West
Side and close to the river, a tall brick
building stood In tho open, with little
cottages clustered ail about It. The
seven-story giant, rising in the midst of
the squatty frame buildings, was bat­
tered byjthe full force of a hurricane that
caught the falling sheet* of water and
tore them into shreds. It was an un­
finished structure, and the terrific gusts
of wind pushed Intothcopen windows and
actually tore the fresh wall* apart. The
building fell. Great masses of I rick
crashed upon the houses all about and
ground them to piece*, bringing death
and ruin to a half dozen families. At
least five people are known to have
been killed.
Ten wore injured,
two of them fatally. All night

OIL AND OAS.

When a gas or oil well is located,
says S. A. Feltcr in the Indiana
Farmer, the flrst step is to build over
it a derrick, which is a frame from 60
to 90 feet high, built of 2x8 t imber in
the form of a square pyramid. In
this is erected a “walking-beam,” or
horizontal rocking shaft, pivoted in
the middle 26 feet long, one end of
which is connected to the crank shaft
of tbe engine, to the other is sus­
pended the “drill," or boring tool.
The drill “bit" consists of a steel
chisel blade, obtuse but sharp, about
8 inches wide, with a shaft about 6
inches in diameter, about 6 feet long,
weighing about 250 pounds.
The
lower or cutting part is of steel; the
shaft is of iron. The “stem* is an
iron rod of the same size os the shaft
of the bit, into wbi;h it is screwed,
and is 33 feet long, and weighs over
2,000 pounds. In the upper end of
the stem Is a ring by which the whole
is suspended by a 2j inch manila
rope. The drill Is raised about three
feet for a stroke, the weight being
about 2,300 pounds, and let fall on
the rocks beneath. The number of
strikes awrage about forty-three per
minute.
The hole is 8 inches in diameter at
the start, and the drill chops its way
down as far as possible—sometimes
from 100 to 200 feet; when water or
sand prevents further progress by cav­
ing, it is necessary to case the hole
with sections of iron tubing, having
an inside diameter of 5} inches, which
are screwd together and driven down
to the bottom of the hole. Then a
smaller drill, fitting the inside of tbe
casing, is again set to work as long as
possible.
When again obliged to
stop, the casing is withdrawn and a
“reamer" or widening tool is put
down, and the lower portion of the
hole is enlarged to 8 inches. Then
the casing Is again put down to the
bottom. In this way the work pro­
gresses until the desired depth is
reached.
The drill is made with horizontal
notches throughout the entire length,
as it often happens that the bit or
'stem breaks while in the hole. In
such cases a “grab-hook" is slipped
over the end of the broken piece, and
in this way recovered.
•
The “sand-pump," which is used to
clean the sand and pulverized rock
from the hole, is simply a tube 20 feet
long and 5 inches In diameter, the
valve being an iron or copper ball 4}
Inches in diameter. This tube is let
down, and when filled is drawn out.
The sand-pump is used about every
five feet, and a sample of the rock cut
is put into bottles, numbered, and la­
beled with number of feet and char­
acter of rock.

RATIFIED THE TREATY.

The treaty or cbnvc ntion providing for
arbitration in the settlement of tho dif­
ferences between Groat Britain and the
United States over the jurisdiction of
Behring Sea has been i^rtiflod by tho
Senate by a unanimous vote. Tho
treaty does not stipulate tho language
In which tho .proceedings shall bo con­
ducted. Mr. Sherman said that the
suggestion that they bo conducted in
English had been communicated to Sir
Julian Pauncefote, the British Minister,
who replied that he had no objection,
but preferred to communicate •with his
own government before agreeing to it.
This ho did, and Lord Salisbury ap­
proved. After Mr. Sherman had made
this statement tho treaty was amended
so that English should be tho language
used In conducting of proceedings.
The time allowed the arbitrators for
decision was extended to four months
and the treaty was ratified without tho
passage of any resolution (by a y&lt;« and
nay votel, and resolutions informing the
President ot its ratification and remov­
ing tho Injunction of recrecy from tho
vote wore adopted.
Officials of the North American Com­
mercial Company, to whom tho contract
was awarded for taking seals on the
Pribylov Islands for a term of twenty
years, were notified that arrangements
should be made for this season on tho
basis ot a catch of 7,500 skins, the same
as last year, under the provisions of the
modus vlvendl r.tlll In force. Informa­
tion to this effect came direct from tho
State Department, coupled with the
statement thaL with tho exception or
arranging a few deals, the United States
and Great Britain had practically reached
an agreement to continue last year's
proposition in force during tho sealing

Fishing is not attracting the at­

it has in previous years, and conse­
quently but few large flsb stories are
being told. •

Jonah Rasey has retired from the
draying business, having -sold out to
Aniiel Shulzc.
George Weller will
run the dray for Mr. Schulze. Jonah
Rasey was the pioneer drayman of
Nashville, having been In the business
in this plane Jor the past 21 years.
When Mr. Rasey first commenced
drayingat this place it was but a lit
tie hamlet. He has carried the ex­
press ever since Lhh division of the
Michigan Centra) road was built, anti
for the first three years also carried
the mails. In the many years that be
has carried the express he has missed
being at his post but a couple times.
No doubt Mr. Rasey is the oldest
drayman of the state, and has con­
tinued in the business the longest.

Robert Baxter, living
in Kalamo, received a telegram from East­
port, Antrim county, Wednesday af­
ternoon of last week, stating that his
son, James, at that place, was lying
at the point of death; Mr. Baxter
startiHl for Eastport Thursday morn­
ing on the early train and when he
arrived there his son was unconscious
and remained so until his death,
which occurred Saturday at one
o’clock, p. m. He went there some
time in August, last, for his health,
and was improving greatly when he
was taken sick with billlous intermitent fever and la grippe, which oc­
casioned his untimely removal. He
was cared for by many kind friends
there.
His remains were brought
here on the morning train Monday.
The funeral services were held at the
home of-h1s parents Tuesday, his re­
mains were Interred in the Kalamo
cemetery."
The ladies of an English town have
just held a debate on this subject:
"Should ladies open their husband’s
letters?’’ The Interest was intense
and the arguments ardent. One de­
mure damsel, with becoming maiden
modesty, timidly ventured the opin­
ion that such a proceeding would be
“inquisitive, unwomanly and im­
proper.” This innocent maiden was
sadly suppressed by the more exper­
ienced matrons present, and one stern­
eyed, MlnerVa-like lady offered a reso­
lution to the effect "that ladies were
perfectly and legally justified in openng their husbands letters,” which
was overwhelmingly carried. 11 is
safe to say that few letters addressed
to Hie opposite sex In that town will
tie directed in the future to their pri­
vate residences.

A most terrible accident tiefell Prof.
Edward D. Campbell, assistant pro­
fessor of metallurgy, at the Suite Uni­
versity at Ann Arbor at 3 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon. While making an
experiment in steel testing, an explo­
sion followed bis mixing of chemicals
shattering the glass yessets and filling
both his eyes with broken glass. At
the time of the explosion Mr. Camp­
bell had Just stooped down to glance
closely at one of the large bottles on
the table and received the full force
of the explosion directly in his eyes.
He stood for a moment of time with
his hands clasped to his eyes, then
staggered back wailing, “I am blind!”
His face was terribly lacerated and
the blood streamed through bls fingers
from the wounds. Willing arms were
at dbee outstretched to receive him,
and he was partially led, partially car­
ried, up the labratory stairs to the adoln I ng office. Dr. Carron wits qulcky summoned, the students sorrowful­
ly waiting outside to hear the verdiet.
A glance at the bleeding sockets left
no doubt of the terrible nature of the
wounds, and when Prof. Campbell
begged to be told the worst the reply
was that both eyes were lost beyond
all hope. Prof. Campbell lay a minute
stunned by the measure of his misfor­
tune, then threw himself to the wall
and begged the doctor to kill him. His
right eye was entirely removed at
once. He will be entirely blind for
life.

A FOUR MILLION FIRE. OUR BUDGET OF FUN
DEATH AND DESTRUCTION IN
NEW ORLEANS.

HUMOROUS SAYINGS AND DO­
INGS HERE AND THERE.

Property valued at $4,000,000 was
destroyed and a hundred or more per­
sons robbed of their homes by fire at
New Orleans, Sunday. Flames w«-re
discovered among some cotton in front
of tho so-called fireproof press on North
Front street The deportment respond­
ed promptly, but the wind was so high
ana the cotton so dry that" it burned
like tissue paper. Tho firemen worked
like demons to arrest the progress of the
flames, but all their efforts were un­
availing. Chief O'Connor sounded a
repeated alarm, which brought more en­
ginesJo the scene, but they had no effect
whatever. The woodwork cracked and
fell to tho ground and tho bright flames
leapdtl upward from every part of the
compress.
After throe repeated alarms a general
alarm was sent in, ami ail tho engines
in the city, with the- exception of two
or throe, were called out The fire­
proof press had about 10,000 bales of
cotton stored in it. This was entirely
consumed.
In half an hour after the flames had
started the fire-proof press was totally
consumed and the flames communicated
to an adjoining press. In this press
was stored 60,000 bales of eotton, some
of which was taken out to a place of&gt;
safety. Tho major portion, however,
was In flames in a short time, And it
was impossible to save 1L
Suddenly a small ildme was Been to
leap skyward from a corner of the Inde­
pendence press. In a second almost the
entire square was ablaze, and the flames
formed almost a solid block of fire. In
the yard were stored some ten thousand
bales. This proved excellent fuel for
the flames, and in a little time it was
consum'd.
Thu total amount of cotton burned, as
near as can now be ascertained, is esti­
mated at 80,000 bales, held by factors
and commission merchants, and covered
by their open policies. Much of this
eotton will l:o sent to the pickeries and
saved, so that the total loss will prob­
ably not exceed $30 a ^bale, making the
total on cotton between $2,000,00o and
$2,250,000. Loss on presses and sheds
estimated at $150,000. It is thought tho
fire started from a cigarette which some
person threw among the cotton.
While tho firemen were fighting tho
cotton tjro an alarm was given of another
at Laurel and Third streets, about twelve
blocks away. Tho fire began with tho
sacrifice of two young lives. A little
daughter of Mrs. Valentino was filling a
cool-oil lamp when It exploded. 'Iha
flaming oil was thrown over an Infant
sister and both children were burned to
death. The flames spread out on their
mission of destruction making a huge
funeral pyre for the unfortunate little
ones. Chief O’Connor sent several en­
gines to the scene, but before they could
get down to active work a dozen houses
were in flames. Alarms were sent in
and every engine on both sides of the
river was summoned to the scene. Tho
heat was intense, and for this reason It
was almost impossible to get near tho
burning buildings, the wind .n many in­
stances blowing tongues of flames ocroBS
the street.
The flames spread in every direction
owing to varying winds. The fire swept
across Laurel street with a rapidity that
was at once alarming and soon tho sec­
tion bounded by First, Third, Laurel
and Magazine streets, four squares, was
ablaze, and tho wooden buildings were
devoured as if they were so much chaff.
Magazine street staid tho march of tho
destuctlve clement westward and acted
as a barrier on tho routh. Every build­
ing in tho foursquares mentioned except
four was destroyed.
Most ot the
houses were small, but some very hand­
some houses on Magazine street were
destroyed. Hundreds of people Have
been left homeless by the fire and in
many cases nothing will be raved. Tbe
scene presented was truly one of deso­
lation. Nothing remains of the many
handsome buildings embraced in the
four squares but tall, gaunt-looklng
chimneys, like huge spectral forma
standing guard over tho blackened ruins.
Tho losses by this fire are estimated nt
$250,000. It is believed that tho build­
ings are mostly insured.

Barkeeper—You believe in a gen­
eral division of property?
Socialist—Yes, that's my Idea.
“And your motto Is that property
is robbery?"
“Precisely."
“Then if there is a general division
of properly the socialist who takes
any of the property Is a receiver of
stolen goods, aud in this caw the re­
ceiver is worse than the thief".—

whispered Mary, as

Isounded through
the open doorway.
"Luflly!" said Bet­
ty. "Let’s go in!"
"Oh, no, nol I'm
'fraldl" gasped lit­
tle Mary, pulling
back.
"Why, Mary, it’s
a church! There are
lots of children in
go. They won’t do
nothin* to ub. Como, I’m goln'."
Noiselessly the barefooted waifs
climbed the stone steps and crossed tho
vestibule, arid at last slipped insldo tho
audienco loom.
Awed and half dazed, they hugged tho
wall tightly.
Tho church was very full, and people
were standing all around tho entrance.
Near the children was a deep window
scat, banked with the choicest flowers.
Mary was the first to spy it, and she
tuggod at her sister’s dross, and pointed
to tho beautiful sight Betty gazed in
rapture, her lips xormed into an "Oh!"
which she dared not utter.
Then sweet, far-away music, that drew
nearer and nearer, claimed their atten­
tion.
Soon they saw. coming through a door­
way at the right of the altar, a proces­
sion of white-robed boys, singing as
they came. Betty and Mary had never
in all their Ilves heard such music be­
fore, and they wore sorry when It
stopped.
A man in a white robe began to speak,
but they did not understand what he
was talking about, so they looked at the
flowers and the people, but the flowers
most of all.
Their eyes rested longest on a groat
cross of blossoms in front of the altar
rail, and they wished they oould go near
to IL
After a little chairs wore brought In
for tho people near the entrance, and a
kind man gave tho children a seat,
which they shared between them, their
arms around each other.
' It was a long service that Easter af­
ternoon, but it was so beautiful to Betty
and Mary that they never thought of
going. Almost the last thing that took
place made these two look on with very
wistful eyes. It was the taking apart
of the beautiful cross of flowers. The
cross was composed of small bouquets,
and these wore distributed among the
children of the Sunday school.
At last It was all over, the whiterobed boys had gone as they came, and
tho people were going away.
"Let's stay an' see 'em go by!" whis­
pered Betty.
Thus it happened that as Miss Bar­
nard’s class of six little girls were pass­
ing out of the church they saw two
raggod. barefooted children shyly eying
them and their flowers.
Sweet LUjr Stone was ahead, and with­
out an instant’s hesitation she placed
her own bouquet in Mary's hand. Tina
Gray was close behind, and with a smile
she tendered her flowers to Betty. Tho
other four, not to be outdone by their
leaders, gave their flowers to the little
strangers, and when Miss Barnard camo
up she found Betty and Mary with
flushed, beaming faces, hardly knowing
what to •*&gt; or what to say.
’
The young toucher gave her class one
glance of loving approval, and then
turned to tho two children, who were
•till fingering their flowers with intense
rapture.
She asked their names and where they
lived; she found out that their mother
was 111 in bed, and that their father did
little to make them happy, and when she
left them she promised to go and see
them qoon.
Tills promise was more than fulfilled,
asd Betty and Mary found in Miss Bar­
nard one of the best and kindest friends.
“Ain’t you glad we went in that Bun­
day?" said Mary.
"Yes, I guess I am," paid Betty; “and
I do think. Mary, churches and church
folks is luffly.

before."
.
"She doesn't look over and above
well," was the answer, "and if she
hadn’t H«*eni**d m&gt; bright yesterday morn­
ing I’d say she and Mr. Beverly had
been a fussing, as they've been doing

but now I can't make nothing of it. I
don’t think it's anything serious, though.
Nothing that won’t come right."
Jeannette was rather surprised when
Mary came to her twenty mhinteB later,
and putting a note in her hand, said:
"Give It to Mr. Beverly when he
comes to-day. If he does come,” she
added.
"Give It to him?" returned tho old
woman, glancing from the note to Mary.
"What am I to do that for? I must any I
don't like the looks of things."
"Will you give it to him or not?" asked
Moy. "If you will not, I will take it to
Toby."
. \
"I'll give it to him; but I must say
again, 1 don’t like the looks of things."
Two hours later she put It in Jack's
hand, with the words;
“I c’on't know what’s in it, sir. It may
be Bomcthlng not very pleasant; if It Is,
don't mind it. Miss Mary has more hu­
mors than a cat has lives. It comes of
her grandfather ruining her when she
was young."
Jack scarcely heard these remarks—
he was reading his note.
It was written In pencil, and contained
these words: "I write this to spare my­
self the humiliation of ever seeing or
speaking to you again. I have discov­
ered all your miserable conduct, and if
you have one spark of manliness in your
nature you will spore me the sight of
your face again."
"Where is she?" ho cried, hoarsely,
when he had gathered the full meaning
of the bitter lines. "I must see her."
"She's gone riding," replied Jeannette,
rather startled by his face. “I couldn't
say where, sir. She'll be coming bock
soon. I guess maybe you had better
wait."
Jack found this waiting miserable
enough. Dinner time came, and Mary
did not appear, a fact which so dis­
turbed Mr. Millard that he failed to no­
tice Jack's, peculiar mood.
It was not until late in tho afternoon
that Jack, standing near the gate, caught
tho first glimpse of the approaching
Prince.
He waited until ho was almost u|H»n
him, and then starting quickly forward
grasped the bridle, bringing horse and
rider to a sudden and rather sharp
standstill.
"Do you know why I have stopped you
In this way?” he asked In a fitirn voice.
“No," responded Mary, with darken­
ing eyes and a face from which every
particle of color had fled, "unless you
wish to add another insult to your long
list."
"You shall explain what you mean, by
that," ho exclaimed passionately. "And
by thia, too."
He drew her note from his pocket and
held it before her eyes.
A slight change passed over her face.
“Tho meaning is clear. If you wish
another answer, ask your own con­
science."
She jerked her bridle from his hand,
and giving Prince a smart cut, dashed
by him without further words.
"I will have an explanation," he mut­
tered, looking after her.
Returning to the house he tore a sheet
of paper from his note-book, and hastily
scrawled upon it:
"I must see you."
Jeannette enrried this to Mary, and
returned looking both angry and per­
plexed.
“She says you hove her note, sir, and
she hasn't any more to say. I'm vety
sorry, sir," added the woman, feeling
something was wrong.
"Thank you, Jeannette. I must be get­
ting my things together. I will have to
leave you to-night."
“Oh, sir, that's too bad. Mr. Millard
will be so sorry. I suppose you couldn't
change your mind?"
“Impossible. And Mr. Millard must
think business calls me away. It will
be better so."
“Yes, sir; I understand. It's a shame

”0h, my," Mary added, as Mrs. Thom­
son returned with the glass of milk and
a generous wedge of gingerbread, “this
is what I call good.”
"Do you know,”she continued, after n
few moments' silent enjoyment of her
refreshments, "I believe Westen has
really grown since I saw it last.”
“I don’t know about that, Mias, -but I
do know we are improving wonderful.
Bo many city folks come here for the
summer. Next year we are going to
have another hotel, and everybody that's
got a spare room is set on taking
boarders.”
"Are you?" asked M iry, setting down
her empty glass.
“Oh, no, Mias. I haven't a corner.
Besides, I’m too far from the town.Take some more milk/Miss Mary.”
“No, thank you.. You gave me such a
large glass.” She walked to tho win­
dow as she spoke, and glanced down the
broad, shady street.
. "Yoft have tome very pretty girls,"
she added, after a second, as her eye
followed two young ladles on horseback.
."Are those two natives or visitors?”
"Them?" said the woman, looking in
brr turn. "They live here. That tall
one's Miss Ellis.
She goes to .New
York a good part of her time. She's
going to bo married in a few months."
“Ah, is she? How happy ahe must
feel. Looks, I mean."
"People think she has reoson to
be happy. She's going to do very well.
They say Mr. Beverly is a------ ”
“Mr. Who?" cried Mary, turning
quickly.
“Mr. Beverly," repeated Mrs. Thom­
son, slightly surprised at Mary's tone.
"A mighty nice young man. He doesn't
live here, of course; he comes from New
York, and I daresry when they’re mar­
ried they’ll go there altogether."
Mary still stood by tho window. She
could feel her knees tremble under her,
and a stange, numb sensation creeping
about her heart.
“Will you tell mo this—this gentle­
man’s name?" she asked, after a second,
striving.to make her voice calm and to
keep all emotion from her face.
“Christian name?" repeated the wom­
an, knitting her brows in her effort to
remember. “I've heard It, I know, and
yet I can’t, somehow, recollect."
“An uncommon one, perhaps,' BUggeatod Mary, in a strange voire,
nothing like—Jack."
There was a slight lingering over tide
name, as though she half feared to let it
leave her lips, but Mrs. Thomson took it
up eagerly.
“That’s it. Miss," she said, with de­
cision. "Sometimes you know a thing,
but can't just think at the time, and If
somebody mentions it------ Ah, Miss,
what's the matter? Are you Ill?"
Mary had clutched the window for
support, but at the woman's question
ahe stood upright again.
“No, no, not ill," she answered, pain­
fully. “I may be tired. I’ll sit here for
a few minutes, then I must be going."
“You look rather pule,” was the some­
what anxious reply. "Perhaps I might
get something to make you feel better."
“Thank you Nothing could make me
feel better now. I think I am rather In­
terested' in Miss Ellis. Are you ’ sure
about this engagement, and that his
name is—Beverly?”
“Yes, Miss. Everybody here knows
it; and as for Mr. Beverly, I’ve - spoken
to him. He's nice In his manners—
good-looking, too. I saw him not two
hours ago. He was with Miss Ellis
then.”
“Two hours ago," thought Mary. This,
then, was the reason for his going to
New York. How often during the hours

"I cannot discuss that," Jack replied,

“At last," be said, a* they pulled up
before the door of the worthy Mrs.

But here a now disappointment
awaited him. Mrs. Shrimp hadn't a

People had come down on her bo, she'd

At this stage of the conversation a
young man, who had been sitting on the
other side of the room, laid down the
paper he held in his hand, and giving
Jack a scrutinizing glanee, leit his

“I bog pardon,” he Bild, addressing
himself to Mrs. Shrimp. "I have hmnl

Mrs. Shrimp looked relieved and Jack

“Mr. Who's?” interrupted Jock with
more force than politeness. “I beg your

“My name is Beverly," answered tho
young man.
"The devil!" sold Jack.
“No relation, I assure you, though I
am what the laity consider the next of

shall be happy to show you my room."
"The gentleman will register flrat,"
put in Mrs. Shrimp, with due respect for

“Here; sir, If you please."
Jack took up a pen, but paused as a

“It’B only John,"observed Mrs. Shrimp,
with calm reassurance, ''“Not having no

Apparently satisfied, Jack
dipped his pen into in some rather thick

‘Jack Beverly.' Mrs. Shrimp, standing
near, regarded him with a slightly be­
wildered air. In her estimation he was
upset also.
“You've made a mistake, sir. If I

"Have I," he asked Imperturbably.
“It can’t be helped, for; If I may be al­

Tops arc signs of springtime. In
every home where thereto a boy there
arc from one to a dozen tops. Some
have pegs and some have not, and
some are badly battered and others
In the collection show signs of new­
ness. There is a reason for every
symptom observable In tops, and a
boy can explain everything.
All boys can spin tops. No one
knows where or when or how they
learned, or who taught them, but
they know how Just the same. There
is a popular Impression to the effect
that a boy is born knowing about IL
He knows how to spin a top the same
as a girl knows how to put her doll
baby to sleep, or the same as a boy
knows how to whistle. No one says
anything about it, or thinks anything
about It, when lo, one day he winds a
top up and throws It, and it spins.
He doesn't even know how It hap­
pened, and if you are ambitious and
inquire into it yourself, he will smile
a quiet smile while he winds It up,
and then he will throw it as a sort of

vigorously, persistently and skillfully
lashed with a whip so full of lashes
that it looks like a cat o’ nine tails.
The whip top is wholly unlike the
usual string top. Its upper surface
Is flat and the peg is very blunt. In
some shops a stick and small leather
string attached Is presented to each
customer who purchases a penny top,but as a usual thing the whip Is home
made.' Whip tops make great inroads
'upon the household linen by the de­
mand they create for lashes.

The gyroscope Is the most wonder­

of the few things-which even science
has failed to explain. It consists of
two wheels at right angles with each
other. As one wheel spins horizon­

tbe other wheel spins In a perpen­

The boy who spins a top
well has a carious little trick of
wedging tbe end of his tongue be­

a bit on the side while he winds the
top. But this really has nothing to
do with the success of spinning a top,
because you may hold the end of.your
tongue between your teeth till you
bite it off and it will not help you at
all.
The top business is booming Just at

YORK’S PROSPECTIVE

The recent satisfactory test of a tar­
get representing the protective deck
of the armored cruiser New York has
afforded another illustration of the ex-1
cellent results obtained from our'
nickel-steel ship plates.
This deck
consists as its maximum, which is
amidships, of one three-hich plate,
with two one and one-half inch plates
under it.’making six inches in all.

BIO SLUMP IN WHEAT.

The Chicago wheat market started ofi
Monday as if It were going out of sight;
it finally collapsed and dropped as if a
corner had 'busied" and as if*a panic
had resulted. It was a most remarkable
affair, however. Without the oollapne
of any comer, without any sensational
failure, without any panic of any »ort,
there was a straightaway decline in the
price of five cents. This big drop waa
all the more remarkable because it was
a drop from under 85 cents. People who
had orders to exeiute were in distreu

had the semblance of a big one, 11

Tho reporter’s pencil has trained
many a hand for the novelist’s pen.
It trained Charles Dickens, who, at
the age of nineteen years, did report­
er's work of such excellent quality as
to draw frdta the late E tri of Defiby,
then Lord Stanley, a prediction that
the stripling reporter was destined for
a great career.
Young Dickens had reported the
last part of Lord Stanley’s speech io
the House of Commons against O’Con­
nell. When the proofs of the speech
were sent to Lord Stanley that gen­
tleman returned them with the re­
mark that the first two-thirds of It
were so badly reported as to be unin­
telligible; but that if the gentleman
who had reported the last part of It
so admirably would call upon him he
would repeat his speech and have it
reported again.
Young Dickens, note-book in hand,
made his appearance at Mr. Stanley’s,
and was reluctantly shown by the
servant into the library. When the
master of the house came in he ex­
pressed astonishment with his eyes as
' well as by his words.
“I beg pardon," said he, “but I had
hoped to sec the gentleman who haiT
reported the last part of my speech.”
“I am that gentleman," answered
Dickens, turning red in the face.
“Oh, indeed!" said Stanley, turning
to conceal a smile.
Sir James Graham then came in,
and Stanley began his speech. At
first he stood still, addressing one of
the window-curtains as “Mr. Speaker."
Then he walked up and down the
room, gesticulating and declaiming
with ali the fire he had shown in the
House of Commons.
.
Sir James, with a newspaper report
before him, followed, and occasionally
corrected Stanley. When the proof
of I he speech had been read by the
orator, he returned it to the editor
with a note predicting the future
success of his young reporter.
Many years afterward Charles Dick­
ens, the popular novelist, was invited
to dine with Lord Derby. The guests
were shown into the library, and
Dickses, though he had forgotten the
Incident of the speech, felt a strange
sensation, as if he had been there be­
fore.
At last something recalled the re­
porting adventure, and he reminded
his host of it. Lord Derby was de­
lighted to recognize in the popular
novelist his boy reporter—Youth’s
Companion.

On a march Infantry will endure
the fatigue much better than cavalry,
and in a long distance the foot sol­
diers will outmarch the horsemen.
Those who doubt this statement
should remember that a horse In army
service carries about 270 pounds
weight, while tbe soldier carries only
his gun and from twenty to forty
pounds. Notwithstanding the (act
that a ten minutes* halt is made in
every hour for stragglers to catch up,
cavalry straggle to the rear more
than Infantry du, and the care of a
horse on a long march Is a serious
matter. Tbe horses are picked ani­
mals, but even the best horse is liable
to fall lame from the Ions of a shoe
or a sione in his hoof, or from some
other cause which at first may ta
entirely unperceivcd by the rider.—

BLOODY FIGHT WITH

.

INDIANS.

Killed in a Battle.

An authentic report has reached
Phoenix, A. T., that the Mexican soldiers
under Lieutenant Montana, of the First
Bona Military, had met the renegade
(Yaquis well up tho Yaqul River tnd had
had a hard fight with them, 1° which a
!number of both soldier* and Indians
■were killed. Later the absolute truth
.of the report was determined by dis­
patches to prominent Sonorans in
Phcrnlx. Tho soldiers, 20J strong,
.met the Indians in a defile of
the Sun La Blancoe. There were a largo
.number of the Indalns, though just bow
many could not be determined. The en­
gagement lasted eight hours, when the
'Indians dispersed through tho moun­
tains, leaving the soldiers masters of
the situation. This is the way tho
,Yaquis fight, and it makes them a
'formidable adversary. They will rise
up in largo numbers, and when closely
pressed every one become his own oom­
minder and takes to tho brush. They
are brave, too, and seldom refuse to
fight the soldiers when equal in num­
bers. The fighting forces of Mexicans
have sent for re-enforcement, when they
will pursue the renegades further into
mountains.

Meanwhile Jack had been literally

'Now,' said tho latter, closing the

“Positively. I wish I was sure of

“Well, then, all I have to remark is

about. I'm beginning to see now. You

Beverly looked so perplexed over this
problem that Jack was forced to laugh.
“I don’t believe I put that straight,"
remarked tho former. “Let me see.
I'll get it right presently. Sit down,
and I’ll follow suit I’m upset, like the

somehow we don’t progress. Oh, I

“Routh Weston."
"Precisely. Just Hie place I started
for. It-Isn’t quite ns clear as daylight,
but mighty near it. I suppose you
bare been staying with Mrs. Millard?"
“No; Mr. Mlllanl."
Beverly jumped up aud sat down again.
"Just as I said. You ore me, and

John, and you had an idea of marrying
Mrs. John, aud Miss Harty is pining

These questions were put with a rapid­
ity that was ludicrous, and Jack, slightly
unnerve ! by what ho had lately discov­
ered, could only pats his band over his
traw In a perplexed way.
"I know the people you mention," he
answered, "and I have patronised Mr.
Bailly, but I can’t understand---- "

York, where I practice law. I’m a lone
orphan, with no memory of either father
or mother. About three montlis ago I
received a letter from a gentleman Higning himself James Millard. According
to his statement, he had been a wnr:n
f lend of my father’s, and, having heatd
through another friend of my existence,
he was anxious to make my ocquaintanco, and so on. Well, the upshot of It
was he Invited mo to visit him nt his
home in South Weston. I had the name
of the place pat enough at the time,
but, being a thoughtless fellow, os my
friends have often kindly told me, I was
scarcely surprtafd when I met a gentle­
man ou tho train who told me Mr; Mil­
lard lived in Weston.- I naturally thought
I had mode the mistake, and there I was.
I confess I found my welcome much less
cordial than I expected, ami I have boeii
rather surprised at Mr. Millard’s silence
regarding my father and our letters.
Lately I have suspected something, but
for certain reasons I did not feel anxious
to Investigate. That's my side of the
story. Yours, I know, will enlighten us
still further."
Jack looked his tlo-ough bewilder­
ment, and it was some seconds before
ho could gather his thoughts.
"Well^fiffSaM at last;" how flain it
all seems now. You see, I left New
York with the intention of vacating for
a month or so. One of my friends sug­
gested Weston ns n delightful place to
rusticate. He hod some friends there,
he told me, aud he would write to them
immediately. He assured me I would
like them, aud that they would make
my visit pleasant.
"Under the circumstances I set out
for Weston, but through inattention
when the station was called I left the
train at South Weston. Imagine piy
surprise upon finding Mr. Millard's car­
riage waitiBg for me. I could not
understand it, and I could only conclude
that Frank's letter hud brought about
this unexpected welcome. I confess I
have been surprised at a number of
things, but I usually found, or thought
I found, a reasonable explanation."
“It Is curious, to say the least," re­
marked Beverly. “I don't regret the
mistake, however. I have had some
fault-finding letters, and been threat­
ened with a lawsuit, but I forgive all, as,
I don’t mind telling you. I have found
tho happiness of my life."
Jack sighwl.

"Why that sigh?" inquired Beverly,

"It

THS OOAT.

A terrible state of affulra is reported
lo exist in Johnson County, Wyo., on
tho eastern side of the Big Horn Moutitaiifs. Tho owners or managers of the
big cattle ranches in that region have
long suffered from tbe depredations
committed by . organized band* of
thieves, technically known there r.a
“rustlers," and toak up arms in allege d
self-protection. Forty ot them were
surrounded at tbe T. A. Ranch* by about
300 of their foes.
The Acting Governor of Wyoming tele­
graphed to Washington, briefly stating
the facts, and requested that troops i.e
sent at once, os the disturbers of tho
peace had grown so numerous as to bo

General Schofield at 1 o'clock Wednes­
day morning sent a telegram to General
Brooke, commanding the Department of
Dakota, ordering him to send troops
from Fort McKinney nt break of day to ■
the scene of the trouble.
Accordingly, Col. Van Horne’s eom7

afry, received orders to march to the
scene of battle at or.op. About 3 a.m.

BUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION.

The seventh semi-annual convention
of the township of Castleton assem*
bled &lt;«n April 13, at Barry villa M. P.
church with Mrs. Truman, president.
Following is the program:
FORENOON SEWffON.

•Opened by sinking, “All Hail the
Power of Jesus* Name." Rev. Carpen­
ter, who led the devotional exercises,
read from Acts 17, and led in prayer,
followed by singing. After report of
last meeting was read and appoint­
ment of committees on resolutions,
Mrs. M. B. Brooks read a paper,- sub­
ject, ,‘Our Inspiration in Sunday
School Work," who said “The Lord of
our fathers hath chosen that thou
should'st know his will” is as -true of
us as of Paul. We read in the scrip­
tures that the “Inspiration of the Al­
mighty giveth Understanding.” Do
we not, as Sunday school workers,
need this Important inspiration?
Have we not, while in the work of the
master, felt this inspiration? It not.
it is because we have no faith In God
or his promises. Our faith may be
small, even like a grain of mustard
seed, but let us exercise it until It
shall be the “Faith that can remove
mountains.” Spurgeon says, “Teach­
ers and pupils should not merely be­
lieve in the. possibility nf early conver­
sion, but in the frequency of it.” Are
we sometimes inclined to think It un­
necessary to impress spiritual truth
upon the minds of the children? Re­
marks; Rev. Clark, The Inspiration
that we ought to have Is the Inspira­
tion of God/lnspiration that keeps a
work In our souls; not only teachers,
but all need more of this Inspiration.
A. Carr says, “Job says there is a
spirit In man and the spirit of the Al­
mighty giveth lt understanding." It
plants thoughts In the soul whereby
we are formed to a higher cultivation
of intellectual ability. If we lack
faith, let us work for it In getting wis­
dom, getting understanding. It’e tbe
only thing tnat links on 1 he higher In­
telligence of heaven and the .Mjurce of
this needed strength must be found
by the Christians of this century at
the same place I’hul sought and
found.

AFTERN(M)N SESSION.

Opened by singing “Rock of Ages;”
Devotional exercises by Rev. Hamp;
Music, t’Arv You Ready for the
Mansions;" Committee on resolutions
then called to report. The chairman
of said eomittee presented the several
resolutions to the secretary, Mrs. Coe,
which were read item by item. After
a lively discussion of each they were
adopted. A resolution on lesson leaves
as to their value was ably discussed,
on which Rev. Clark made a few very
tasty and interesting remarks in their
favor. The question arose as to how
many present could repeat the names
of the books of the old and uew Testa­
ments. A few hands went up hut
when called noon to repeat them, some
looked penitent. The veracity exemp­
lified In the act of the uplifted band
was questioned. Mrs. Dr. Youngarose
without hesitating and repeated the
books of the Old and New Testaments,
which pleased the convention that her
hand was presented for truth, and no
doubt had the Dr. been there he could
have done the same. Music, “Close
Up the Ranks”. Miss L. Adda Nichols
was called upon to repeat her poem,
which she did, and with that thrilling
inspiration which filled our hearts ana
minds to respond, “Sing them over
again to me, wonderful words of life."
Delegates from the different Sunday
schools in the township were called lo
report. The reports all indicated
courage, with a vital principle of love
to God and man to spread the glad
tidings of great Joy. Mrs. McDerhy’s
paper was called, to which she re­
sponded. Subject, “As Sunday School
Workers are We Not Losing Sight of
the True Object nf the Sunday
School?” She said “We may be punc­
tual, which is a necessity, and have all
the utensils to work with, and we
shall fail unless all Is consecrated to
God and used as instruments in his
bauds In the conversion of souls. We
should live very near to Christ, and
ask his blessings upon the lesson, and
pray often that the pupils might feel
that we weie earnestly interested in
each one of them.” Remarks: Mrs.
Lathrop said, “I never took a work for
eternity without asking Divine inspi­
ration to rest unon me, in home or
wherever uutj may ue made known to
me.” Rev. Clark, then said "As a con­

vention, we .should take these state-!

Evening address by Rev. McAllister.
Remarks: “From time to tlrtie I am
asked the object of this Sunday school
convention. At our last session we
believe that its object was well dem­
onstrated, as it embraces all Orthodox
denominationsand organizations en­
gaged in Christian work and which
?ladly embraces the attendance of all
Ihristlau workers outside of Castleton
township. This acts towards bringing
Christian workers nearer together, and
makes them acquainted with each
other and gives them an opportunity
to profit by each other’s experiences.
May Lhe love of God be more promi­
nent in our hearts than our creeds and
disputations. Let us come together,
stand by tbe act which this convention
endorses, and posterity will rise up
and call us blessed.” The attendance
tn the evening was not as large as it
should have been, as the lecture should
be considered the important tonic of
the convention.

by a congregation attendant upouthe cere­

panic occurred. The altar and the interior
of the cathedral were profu.ely decorated
with artificial Sowers. Just as Father

about to close the ceremonies a gust ot
wind disarranged a bunch of papsr roses,
which blew againet a lighted taper, and

effort to calm tbo frightened congregation,
and at last succeeded. The decorations

�RAVACHOL IN FOR LIFE
THE PARIS BOMB-THROWER IS
SENTENCED.
.
Notwithstanding the Threat* of th® AnarchlBl® a Jnry Convict®-th® Captured
Leader—Bavachol Boaata »rf Hl® Crim®.

Hi® Life Spared.

The trial of Bavachol, alias a half­
dozen other names; Charles Achille
Bimon, alias “Biscuit;" Joo Beala, alias
Joseph Marius; Charles Ferdinand Chaumartin; and the girl Rosalie $pugero
was held at the Seine Assizes Court in^
Faris. The Judges had been warned not
to convict Bavachol, and no ono was
anxious to occupy ths bench during the
trial. So many threats had been made
that friends of tbe prisoners would at­
tempt some desperate act to cither free
the accused or prevent the trial, that
admission to the court-room was se­
verely restricted. Only those person­
ally known to tho court officials and the
twenty-two witnesses were admitted.
Tho prisoners were charged with caus­
ing tho explosions at the residence of
Judge Benoit, 136 Boulevard BL Ger­
main, and at the residence of tho pub­
lic prosecutor, Bulot, at tho corner of
the Ruo Clichy and the Rue de Berlin.
They were also charged with attempting
to blow up tho police commissariat at
Clichy.
The most elaborate preparations wero
taken by tho authorities to guard against
any attempt to interfere wWh the course
of justice. The guards about tho Palais
do Justice were redoubled, and every
part of tho approaches to the building
was watched closely. Only detectives
and policeman could be seen In tho
corridors nnd elsewhere In tho Interior
of tho building. The attendance in tho
court-room was confined to the wit­
nesses, officials, detectives, and jouroal-

When Judge Gue* entered ho at once
summoned tho jury, who. It must bo*
said, presented a greatly disturbed ap­
pearance. After the jurors had taken

their places, the prisoners, headed by
Bavachol, were brought in. They wero
guarded by a large squad of police.
When the reading of tho indictment
was concluded Judge Guea examined
Ba^achoi concerning tho murders which
it was charged ho committed, and. also
concerning tho explosions. Bavachol
In a nonchalant manner admitted his
guilt and took upon himself the entire
responsibility for the Boulevard St. Ger­
main and the Bue Clichy explosions.
When questioned as to his motives for
causing the explosions Bavachol replied:
"J felt a feeling of unfeigned anger,at
the conviction of Le Vallolrand Perret.
I do not think that Benoit and Bulot
should have demanded tho death of tho
fathers of families. Then, again, tho
brutality of the police when they arrgsted
my comrades revolted my conscience,
and I determined upon revenge. Id re­
gard to the St. Germain explosion. I
loaded a bomb that contained sixty cart­
ridges. I dressed myself in broadcloth,
and went to Benoit's house without at­
tracting any attention. After depositing
the machine and lighting tbe fuse I ran
down stairs and reached tho pavement
just as tho explosion occurred. Tbo
operation in the Ruo Clichy was much
the same, only I carried the bomb in a
bag. A port! on of the powder became
displaced, and thus rendered It extremely
dangerous to light the bomb, as it might
explode in an Instant. But I did not
hesitate to take the risk. *
Bavachol concluded ids remarks with
an exposition of his theories. Ho said:
“I wish to see anarchy established and
tho whole people as one great family,
each member ready to share what he
has with his brethren. I committed
those outrages in order to draw the at­
tention of the public to tho needs of tho
anarchists.’
Simon was next examined, but no new
revelations were obtained from him. He
admitted Ids complicity In the outrages.
Uhaumartin said when questioned that
Bavachol stole from Soissy the car­
tridges which he intended to use In
blowing up the palace of justice. Tbe
other two prisoners tried to exculpate
themselves. The witnesses were then
called, and their testimony corroborated
alt the details of the crime as sot forth
In the Indictment.
M. Beaupxlre, tho public prosecutor,
in his address to the jury declared that
the prisoners were disciples of the
famous bandit Claude Duval, and
equaled if not excelled him in the dar­
ing manner in which their acts of out­
lawry were performed and in their utter
disregard of all established laws. He
said that they had not sought to convert
the people to their opinions, but to ter­
rorise them and to subject them to their
will by placing them in a state of ab­
ject fear.
Tho prosecutor caused a sensation
when he read a letter from a Belgian
magistrate informing him that anarch­
ists were sending cartridges to Paris.
He concluded by calling upon the jury
to return a verdict against Bavachol and
Simon without any recommendation of
mercy and to return a. severe verdict
against Beals. In regard to Chaumartin be left the jury to bring in a verdict
In accordance with the evidence. “Re­
garding Bosalie Bougore," he aald.’consult your hearts and consciences."
Bavachol and Simon were found guilty
and senU med to penal servitude for
life. The other prisoners were ac­
quitted. ______________________
The dastardly anarchist outrage in
Paris, by which at least two persons
have been maimed for life and the safety
of many others was placed in imminent
peril, reveals the existence of an alarm­
ing condition of affaire in the French
capital. It emphasises the fact that tbe
police authorities there are unable to
cope with lie organized gang of murder­
ers who, for a year past, have been per­

petrating these crimes with an ever-lncroaaing boldness and reckleaaneas. It
shows that the conspiracy against law and
order is more wiSaspreod than was suppo^a and that the ass*s©: ns are re­
solved to have revenge on any who in­
cur their displeasure or interfere with
the carrying out of their sangulnaij
programme. Tho only offense ot M.
Very’, the proprietor of the cafe tn which
tho bomb was exploded, was that Ravachol, tho instigator or perpetrator of the
outrage committed in tho Ruo do Clichy
March 30, was arrested in his place, and
he was suspected of having Informed the
police of the terrorist's presence there.

Honor to Gen. Grant.

The corner-stone of the nation's mon­
ument to Gen. U. 8. Grant in Riverside
Park, New lork, was laid with becom­
ing ceremonies. The weather was all
that could bo dtwlred, a cloudless sky,
bright sunshine’, tempered by a moder­
ate breeze blowing over the Hudson
River. Long before the time fixed for
tbe dedication ceremonies the im­
mense grand stand, erected !n close
proximity to where the monument
will stand and partly surrounding
the corner-stone, began to fill with
those who had been invited and had
tickets, and by noon it r. a* computed
that there were fully eight or nine thou­
sand persons on tho stand. The largo
number of ladles, in their bright and
showy spring costumes, heightened the
already
brilliant
spectacle. ' This
crowded* stand, with about three thou­
sand veterans of the G. A. R. formed In
Uno around and about ’the resting-piaoe
of their dead hero, with tho charming
scenery along the Hu Ison River and
the Palisadea in tbo distance, formed a
picture which has seldom if ever been
surpassed if equaled.
Shortly after neon the Presidential
party, escorted by Troop A, of the Na­
tional Guard of New York, left the
Fifth Avenue Hot.*! and proceeded to
Riverside I’ark. _ In the carriages wero

“Handsome building over there*.

asked a New York Times reporter ot
a Harlemite whom he saw leaning up
agaiiut a gas-post.
, The Harlemite made no reply but
began flshing'in his overcoat pockets.
Presently he handed out a little slate.
One corner of the slate he put in ids
mouth and then went fishing with
Itolh hands for a slate-pencil. It
took him prolsibly a minute and a
half to find it, though to the reporter
the time seemed much longer. The
pencil found, the man spat on his
slate and rubbed it clean with the
tails of his coaL Then he wrpte
something on the slate and handed
it te lhe reporter. The reporter took
the slate and read what the man had
written.
“Im a *d. m.' Write what you wish
to say on this slate."
The reporter took the pencil and
wrote:
“{ suppose *d. tn.' stands for deaf
mute. I'm sorry for you, old man.
Very sorry, Indeed. But what I de­
sire to know is what that building
over there is."
"Over where?” wrote the Har­
lemite.
“Why, directly across the street.
Don’t you see the building that I’m
talking about?”
“Brick building."

“With brown-stone trimmings?"

“The one where they are Just paint­

“Yes, that’s it. What is it?" wrote
the reporter, congratulating himself
upon having made the Harlemite

The Chateau de Chavaninc Is on a
high hill, and in the misty back­
ground are the slopes of Mounts
Dome, Laguet and’Cantal. A lovely
wide avenue at least a mile long leads
to It from Paulhaguct. The avenue
is jbordeyed by poplars, ash and elm
trees, all of which- were planted by
the General. The chateau itself is a
rather new building, for it stands on
the place of one that was burned * in
the eighteenth century.
It forms a parallelogram, each side
of which is seventy-five feet long and
with a height of about forty. The
principal front faces the north, but
on each side. several doors offer easy
exits. The construction lacks ele­
gance. and if it were not for its fine
situation, the lovely site on which it
stands and the ancient trees that
form a splendid framework, it would
present a rather heavy physiognomy.

the first story Is divided into several
fine rooms, and on the upper floor are
the Ix’dchambers. most of which
have, however, remained unoccupied
since 1829, when Lafayette made his
last visit to his native place.
The most important room on the
first flocu^ls about forty-two feet long,
and has served in turn for dining
hall and hall-room. In It arc the
family portraits, moat of them mod­
ern, and several busts, among which
are those of Washington, Franklin,
Jean Jacques Rousseau, Montesquieu,
Voltaire, Casar, Brutus, Cicero and
Socrates. The library has perhaps a
thousand volumes, and the books still
bear the “ex llbris” of the General’s
arms, and “Cui non?” his proud
device.

The popular idea of the Indian
roaming over the prairies, living on
the fruits of the chase and just what
he can gather, does not properly
characterize all ofthe tribes. Some
of the Indians of the South and
Southwest were excellent agricult­
urists. In Georgia and Alabama,
when the white man first went
among the Natqhcz Indians, they
found them all cultivating maize,
beans, sunflowers, sweet potatoes,
melons, pumpkins, and a large num­
ber of the native fruits growing in
orchards — persimmons, honey-lo­
custs, mulberry, black walnuts and
shell barks of the best kind were
sorted and planted by them. Many
of the New Mexican and Arizona
Indians were also far advanced in the
Agricultural art.
In Scotland the daisy was, and in
some parts still is, regarded as a
healing plant; and If the sick man
cap only put his foot on a fully ex­
panded daisy, fie has hopes of re­
covery, just as in some other parts
some mountain stream or quiet
spring Is supposed to possess magical
powers. Faith, no doubts has a good
deal to do with the cure, and the
thought that touching any given ob­
ject would effect a cure would do
much to accomplish the same. It Is
further believed that if the farmer
kneels down and bites off the first
daisy of spring a plentiful crop will
be the reward.
The more we reflect upon thp un­
speakable meanness of tbe man who
stole a fine overcoat belonging to a
distinguished New York clergyman
while he was preaching to a Chicago

Between horse racing at Washington

Chicago is Ixjund to be “in it.” She

The uninstructed delegates will con­

‘•Down with trusts" shouts the

This is the season that the member

secured a certain majority in the nom­

On the 11th Inst., the people of the

Ferdinand Ward has served out the
term in prison to which he was sen­

only just for the sensational news­

A cynical bachelor says women hare
a natural taste for making pots out of

Dr. Parkhurst the New York

fulfill its initial or experimental
promises in more serious handling or

steel shot of the enormous weight of
1,800 pounds, it was found at the
final test that this prodigious shot

The pressure that can be produced
by elodtrolytlc generation of gas in a
closed space has recently been tested
by a French scientist. The highest
pressure heretofore realized was 6,570

instance the pressure obtained was
between 12,000 and the pressure ob­
tained was between 12,000 and 18,000

For all but these dignitaries such an

upon as a great piece of presumption

to tbe Government 14,000,000 acres of

these lands. That the transfer wm
made through force, and to some extent
by chicanery, is not denied.

The story of the struggles of tho de­
luded followers of Payne and Conch,
and the Anal opening of Oklahoma to
settlement, has been told over and over
again, with variations. B&amp;t few pictures
w«we overdrawn In recounting tho hard­
ships of those pioneers, and, while their
efforts were vain, no one denies tho hon­
esty of purpose of the two great boomer
captains—the one who was stricken
down on the eve of realizing his hopes,
tbe other by an assassin's bullet.
Tbe Indians had parted with their
title to the lands, tho lands were sur­
veyed, and the Government had failed
to settle other Indians on them, while
they were occupied by the cattle barons
to the exclusion of the honest home­
seeker; hence it was held, and with
lUBtfcc, that those lauds were open to
quatter settlement pending Congres­
sional action which would open tbe
country to actual settlement.

One cannot "finish" this country
without visiting the lndlan camps. The
“beef issue" and dances following the
councils In honor of visiting tribes and
the native games are studios; in fact,
Indian camp life as a whole is a study.
A visit to the camp of Strong Bull,
Chief of the ArapahoM, a very intelli­
gent fellow, by tho way, and always
courteous, or to a Cheyenpe village,
eand particularly to the camp of Whirl*wW, Chief of ‘ the Cheyennes, would
suffice. But the closer one studies tho
Indian tho leas sentiment is left in

like the historical Methodist, is born as
such, and as such will end his exist­
ence, no matter what Influence is

stance, the correspondent, when at the
Ponca agency, visited, together with
Coloqel Zach Mulhall, a beef dance
held at the house uf that old war-house,
George Primeau, sub-chief of the poncas.
That night the women danced—the sexes
never dance together—and among
the dancers was a very pretty young
woman with really refined appearance
and manners. She kept perfect time
and became so interested that, oblivious
of the p-csence of strangers, she fol­
lowed the older ones In the wild, un­
earthly chant until she had worked her-:
self into such a high state of excitement
that she dropped to tho floor with sheer
exhaustion. In defense of her weak­
ness the chief explained that she hod
been too long among the white people,
explaining that she had attended
Haskell Institute, at Lawrence, Kan.,
five years. His own.daughter had also
been educated at tho Fame institution,
and here they were dressed in blankets
mid taking part 1" the native orgies.
In Conversation with the girl later
in the evening we found her charm­
ing. She admitted that she did not
continue her studies,' but she was a
regular subscriber of two magazines and
a ladies’ Journal. ■ Her husband was a
student in Haskell Institute, where he
graduated with high honors, yet he was
outside, sitting crouched around a
camp-fire, dressed in leggins and with
a blanket thrown around him. Inter­
ested as to what standing they held in
the school, we requested her to write

her own name and those of her school­
mates. Taking a pencil, she nimbly and
gracefully wrote:
“Hannah Ray."
“Frank L. Smith,"
“Jennie Prlmcaux,"
“Frank Smith."
The flrat name was her own, the sec­
ond that of her husband, the third our
host's daughter, and tho last th .t of her
little son, just four months old. Later
inquiry of a gentleman connected with
Indian education disclosed thateach one
of th (Hirst three had made remarkable
records as scholars in the institute, and
were exceptionally well-behaved.

The great Molln makers all lived
within pie compass of one hundred
and fifty years. They chose their
wood from a few great timbers felled
in the South Tyrol, and .floated down
in rafts, pine and’ maple, sycamore,
pear and ash. They examined these
to find streaks and veins and freckles,
valuable superficially when brought
out By varnishing.
They learned to tell the density of
the pieces of wood by touching them;
they weighed them, they struck them,
and listened to judge how faster how
slow, or how resonantly they would
vibrate in answer to strings. Some
portions of the wood must be porous
and soft, some of close fiber. Just
the right beam was hard to 'find;
when found It can be traced all
through the violins of some great
master, and after his death in those
of his pupils.
Tho piece of wood was taken homo
and seasoned, dried in the hot Brescia
and Cremona sun. The house of
Sftradivarius, the great master of all,
is described as having been as Hot as
an oven. The wood was there soaked
through and through with sunshine.
In this great heat the oils thinned
and simmered slowly, and penetrated
tar into the wood, until the varnish
became a part of the wood itself.
The old violin makers used to save
J very bit of the wood when they
ouud what tftey liked, to mend and
patch and inlay with iL So vibrant
and so resonant is the wood of good
old violins that they murmur, and
echo, and sing in answer to any sound
where a number of them Hang to­
gether on the wall, as if’ rehearsing
the old music that once they knew.
It was doubtless owing to this fact
that when the people could not ac­
count fdr Paganini's wonderful play­
ing, they declared that he had a
human soul imprisoned in his violin,,
for his violin sang and whispered,
even when all tbe strings were off.

In Hungary and Brittany the
young girls assemble on certain feta
days,, wearing red petticoats with
white or yellow borders round them.
The number of borders denotes the
portion the father is willing to give
his daughter. Each white band,
representing silver, denotes 100
francs per annum, and each yellow
band denotes gold, betokening l,CK&gt;e
francs a year.

•You have never heard of Dick
K llgore’s beaver farm? That's queer.
But I have always been surprised that
some of you newspaper fellows haven't
been down to write it up," said old
“Mud Cat" Williams, who has been a
fisherman in the Southeast Georgia
streams for forty years, to a Globe
Democrat correspondent.
e“Dick's going to make a pile of
money this year," he continued, “on
account of this country and England
getting together and agreeing to a
closed season in Behring Sea.. You
see, there will not be any seal skjns
for the market next season, and
beaver skins, which make a splendid
substitute, will be largely used, and
will bring about 810 a skin in New
York.
“Dick has about 200 beavers, young
and old, but there are not more than
twenty to be kilted for their skins
this year. It's a new industry, an ex­
periment with him, and he don't
want to kill any except the surplus
males for the present. But suppose
you go out with me and see the farm.”
A drive of ten miles through the
swavps along Briar Creek and the
Kilgore place, or Beaver Dam Hol­
low, was reached.
“Now, here's the farm,” said Will­
iams. pointing to the creek, across
which every few yards were rough
dams and above them, in the almost

still neater, were mounds of earth,
rocks and sticks coming out a few feet
above the surface of the water.
Kilgore has been a farmer down
here for years, and beavers have been
in the creek for all time, but it was
nuf until recently.that he began to
protect and care for them with a view
to making beaver-raising a regular
business. It will be a profitable busi­
ness, for th? scarcity of seal skins has
increased the value of beaver skins,
and they will continue to Increase
year by year. A few years ago beaver
skins sold as low as 84 per skin, but
they should now bring at least 810
each.
The beaver is a queer little animal.
When full grown it weighs from fifty
to sixty pounds. Its hind legs are its
principal propellers, both when in
and out of the water. The hind feet
are webbed and the front ones have
claws, which are about as convenient
to the beaver as a monkey’s hands
are to him. They can carry stones
and sticks about in them with ease.
In the water, especially, a beaver can
carry a quantity of freight, for he
swims with his hind feet and carries
his load in his mouth and claws.
Just after dark Mr. Kilgore went
down to the edge of the stream to
feed the beaver*.
“I don’t often feed them in the
summer,” he said, “for they get all
they want along the banks of the
stream. They eat bark off the trees,
and at this season there is an abund­
ance of fresh, tender bark and grasses
and roots. In the winter they lay up
a supply of food for themselves along
the banks and in their holes in the
dams which they build of roots and
sticks and stones. I find them nearly
all the time in winter, when they
flock together and unite in building
dams, but in summer they scatter—
every fellow for himself—and I only
call tjieiu up occasionally'- Just
enough to keep them tame. As they
are scattered off for miles around,
but few will come to a call for food.”

•W ..

A beaver seems to be almost human
in intelligence. They actually gnaw
down young trees, drag them into a
stream and let them float down,
swimming with them to the place
they want to build a dam. Then
they will drag stones and roots and
sticks and grasses, and, indeed, every­
thing used to dam a stream, until
they have, practically, as substantial
a dam as a man could construct.
They do this to make the water above
deep enough to sport In and placid
enough to build their homes of sticks
and mud, which are very warm and
comfortable in winter, and large
enough for a family of eight or ten.
The bearer’s principal tool In building
these homes is his tail. The tall is
a scaly trowel-shaped appendage,
aboi^t ten inches long and four or five

inches broad. The beaver’s main'
strength la in the tall. He can take
up soft mud on it, place it against
the sticks and stones used to build
his home, and pat it down with the
tail as firmly and as well as a man
could do the work with a tcoweU
Besides Its fur, which Is the main
revenue from the beaver, it furnishes
castoreum, a product used in medi­
cines, and Its flesh is a food that,
when properly prepared, is delicious.
While Mr. Kilgore has never yet
•shipped any large number of skins,
by next year jie will have something
like 200 or 300. As it costs practic­
ally nothing to raise beavers, the
business should be a paving one.

PORCUPINES IN THE UPPER PEN
INSULA AND HOW THEY RUN
THINGS.

Editor News:
In my brief letters to your pipe? 1
have endeavored to .write upon sub­
ject* unfamiliar to a-majorlty of its
waders, and in this letter 1 will be
guided by the same rule ami write
briefly upon a subject which is at pres­
ent uppermost in the minds of the
settlers of this wild country, via: “poreupiheB.”
.
This Is an animal which bids fair to
become as grant a pest to the country
as the rabbits are to Australia. They
have wrested tbe country from the
Axtecs, Mound-Builders and Indians,
ahd have now buckled on their armor,
sounded the hedge hog whoop and
swooped down upon the settlers in all
their fury. The habits of this singu­
lar quadruped arc peculiar, and their
.mission on earth a conundrum. They
Jive in hollow logs and trees during
the winter season, in quest of food.
A person passing through the wilder­
ness on a mild, sunshiny day* in win­
ter can tiehold a rare sight; he may
look in the tops of the trees in any di­
rection and see porcupines eating
their dinner and basking In the warm
sunshine; he may see scores of them
at once, and it is interesting to watch
them eat; in this respect they resem­
ble the-monkey, being very dexterous
with their fore paws: he will venture
out on a small limb until It bends and
you exjiect to see him Tall, but you get
disappointed, instead, he balances
himself on his bind-feet and with his
tore paws reaches out and gathers in
the small twigs and with homely
mouth plucks the tenderest buds.
.w They are quiet and harmless during
the winter time hut when summer
comes they start ont on the war path,
and trouble begins. They travel con­
stantly and the mischief they get into
and the damage they do, Is appalling.
There is nothing but what they will
eat, from a bouse to a pair of boote.
• People living In the Interior cannot
leave their house alone for any length
of time on their account, and I will
add that this fact often affords people
a good excuse tor not attending church.
It takes a medium-sized porcnplne
about four minutes to drill a hole in
the front door of a house large enough
to aduiit its body, and the strangest
. about it is that every porcupine within
a mile knows the minute the job is
completed and Rise no time in rallying
around the hole; and when the lonely
wanderer homeward comes he finds
his house completely “gutted’’ and he
wishes he was dead. There is i»ne
. ood thing about porcupines, they al­
ways attack a house in front never in
he rear, and like John L. Sullivan
hey fear no man or thedevll; and the
coldness and Impudence they display
n their frequent assassinations with
people is something remarkable. If
you meet one iu the road and have hot
• got time to knock his brains out' you
mils’, go around him, ho will not give
tbe way. It is by no means a rare
thing to see them in town strutting
along the sidewalk and putting on all
the agony of a society belle. By the
way. a saloon keeper here has one for
a pet, of course be caused him (via a
pair of pinchers) to shed his quills be­
fore adapt ingbim, and like all other
useless things on earth, he drinks.
There is considerable talk at present
of putting a bounty on them and the
not far distant when it will be
done, it being the only obvious way of
diminishing them. Nature has proYided for them bountifully and given
them a power of defence unlike any
otheranimal on earth. There is but
one animal I know of that will kill
one, and that is the fisher, and the pe­
culiar manner in which they accom­
plish the task is Interesting. They
watch their oppurtunity until they
discover a porcupine in the branches
of a small tree which they will also as­
cend, and at once commence postering
his porkey ship in every manner conceivabie, eventually forcing him out
on a small limb on which the fisher
jumps with all his force, compelling
the porcupine to lose his hold and
drop to the ground. As soon as the
ecu pine leaves the limb the fisher
ves also, managing to land within
a foot or so of the porcupine. Should
the porcupine strike on his back,
which they usually do, being very
clumsy, the fisher, being quicker than
a cat, springs onto him (all the quills
on a tiorcuplne are on their back and
sides) and chokes him to death. It is
believed by many that porcupines can
throw their quills at will, but this is a
mistake, they can only strike with
their tail and anything which they
may hit will suffer.
It was only a few days ago that a
friend of the writer left his dwelling
for some little time, and on his return
found eleven porcupines inside the
house, and among other things they
had destroyed was an elghty-dollar
iron, nothing being left of It but tbe
socks and barrels. They had also en­
tered his blacksmith shop and ate
ubout ten pounds of his anvil; so he
says, but I had a doubt about that
$nd made it manifest, whereupon he

A resolution unanimously passed ask­
ing all the societies of the Methodist
Church to decline to aak for or receive
any financial aid from the United States
Government for any educational or re-'
Uglous work—whether among the In­
dians or others. It was stated that the
Methodist Church,as a church, had nev&lt;yasked for or received any such ai&lt;L
though some quaai-Metbodist organiza­
tion had received a few thousand dol­
lars. The Methodist Church goes on
record as being utterly opposed to the
government assisting any religious body
In a financial Way. If any denomina­
tion cannot live without government aid,
the feeling was that it would bo better
for it to make an assignment and go out
of business. A complete separation of
church and state Is an absolute neces­
sity, and by this action of the General
Conference tho Methodist Clfurch has
joined hands with the great Baptist
Church, which, bo it la claimed, has
never received any government aid for
denominational purposes.

The fact that no one was killed

should make the people of Vacaville

every person concerned should have

In several buildings two walls were
destroyed and two others were left
standing. A. C. Stevenson, the con­
ductor of a railroad train, said that
some of the passengers remarked
when they felt the earthquake that
they were going over a remarkably
bad piece of track.
The first person in Vacaville prob­
ably to notice tbe approach of the
earthquake was S. N. Bctys, the
night watchman of the town. He
reports that the morning was clear
and starlight andfthat a cold breeze
was blowing, and’ he was walking
down Main street, from west to east,
•with his lantern in his hand, when
his attention was attracted by a
rumbling sound which came from
the hills to the west of the town.
The noise resembled distant thunder
or the roaring of water which had
suddenly been let loose by tbe bursting
of huge dam-gates.

“and then several violent shocks

the ground to prevent myself from
falling on my face. After that brick
walls and chimneys began to fall

united with a confusion of the mind,
which counteracts the most favorite

weeks a baker was brought before tho

appalling effrontery he admitted that he
did use sand in making bread, adding
that it war downright beneficial to tho

decision j radically to the effect that no
doubt tho accused was an unappreciated

_ CURE

In the mldet of a terrific storm of
wind and rain two Big Four train*
crashed into each other at Cleves, Ohio,
Sunday morning, with awfwi effect.
Not a person on either train escaped in­
jury. Many of tbe wounded have been
removed, and their number ia not
definitely known. As far as learned tbe
dead are: Engineer Wm. Higgs of In­
dianapolis, Fireman Hiram Bruce of In­
dianapolis, Philip Gibbon, David Har­
wood, Engineer Merry Edwards. Those
removed from tbe wreck and found to
be fatally injured are: Fireman Holtoir
Tyrrell, Conduct r John Schroeder,
George W’. Hudler.
Five to eight passengers are aakl to
be missing, who are supposed t &gt; be in
the smoker, which ia buried In the
wreck. Nothing la known as to who
they are. No one is able to conceive
bow any of them could have escaped
death under ^bat maas of wreckage.
The summer schedule went into effect
Sunday morning, and orders had been
issued accordingly. Freight No. 41, a
through train north-bound, had orders
to stop at North Bend to a'.low express
No. HO, a cannon-ball special, to pass.
Under the old schedule the trains pas-uxl

anxiety over this storm, which might

have washed out bridges, he forgot tho
new schedule and hurried on.
As the train approached Cleves Chas.
Smith, the telegraph operator, was
astounded, for he knew that it should
have side-tracked at North Bond, and
that tho express, a few minutes over­
due then, was but a short distance away,
running forty-five miles an hour to make
up lost time.
Smith rushed to the sig­
nal wires and dashed off the danger
signal. Either it was not seen in the
blinding rain or the engineer could
not control
his
engine,
for It
sped on by without lessening speed.
At that very moment tbe express camo
into sight with the speed of tbe wind.
If any effort was made on cither engine
to slacken speed it was not appreciable,
and the iron monsters sprang at and
crashed into each other with a roar that
rolled above the storm like a clap of
thunder. Both engines were battered
Into shapeless masses and rolled off the
track.
The cans behind were mashed into
kindling and tbe track for 100 feet was
torn up. Telegraph poles were thrown
down, and it .was two or three hours
after tho wreck before word reached
Cleves, and s special train was sent
to the scene from Cincinnati. Long
before, however, the people from the
little village and from the surrounding
country bad gathered, and in the fright­
ful storm were doing ail they crald for
the victims.
With the arrival of the special train
the work of getting out the dead began.
Of the five todies recovered four were
shockingly mangled Mid mashed out of
all human shape. Under the freight en­
gine, broken, crushed and scalded, were
found Engineer )Vllllam Higgs and his
fireman, Hiram Bruce, both of Indian­

pires reared and extinguished; where
tho fierce struggle for race denomination
waged for centuries. Involving in its
varying fortunes both Aryan. Somite
and Turanian; it is here, in these later
days of this nineteenth century of our
Christian era, that human beings have
had to die llko sheep for lack of common
sustenanca, for want of necessaries of
tho most ordinary kind, whose procure­
ment to us would be a task of tho sim­
plest nature, and which we would scorn,
rave as the unadorned accessories of
our ordinary diet.
All tho Volga country from Kazan to
Astrakhan hat been visited by tho fam­

have been numbered among its victims,
as well as tho thrifty German color’zers,
who have always been more prosperous

There were at one time ns many as
10,000 carta gathered at Zlatoust, whose
owners bad braved all kinds of hardship
and fatigue in their toilsome journey in
search of grain. Arrive,I at their des­
tination, they fiercely fought among
themselves for places In the long line of
applicants waiting to be served. Many
were detained at Zlatoust for a period of
sixteen days awaiting their turn.
It waa a striking and pathetic scene
that this multitude presented, congre­
gated around the squares and in the
streets of the town, sheltering as best
they might from the severity of the win­
ter weather, content at last if their
wants were supplied and they could
commence their return Journey to un­
dergo a repetition of the hardships en­
countered on their way thither. As
described In my correspondent's letter,
all this was worthy reproduction on the
faithful canvas ot a Vereetohagin or a
Repine, Russia's two great realistic
painters. The eomblned effects of pri­
vation from insufficient food and exces­
sive fatigue were plainly visible upon
the'faces of -these devoted people.

The Russian peasantry predominate
over the other races, and have many In­
teresting characteristics. They may lx
described as a people of undeveloped
posslidlities, a dormant capacity for re­
ceiving and displaying the advantages
of refinement and education lying be­
neath their rougher exterior. The
Sclavonic race, whose very name is de­

An ex-convlot!
As if he had been dealt a sudden and
terrible blow, aa tho vindictive Ralph
Prescott spoke those words, Paul Dalton
staggered under a fearful shock.
His face became the color of ashes.
ills eyes expressed the wretchedness and
despair of a man lost utterly, and, clutch­
ing at n chair for sup;&gt;ort. he gaspeti, in
a quivering, agonized tone:
JIt has come at lost. The blow has
fallen!"
Farmer John stared at him with wondoring, half-believing face. Ruth, .with
a little cry of terror, mope at his bearing
than at the accusation, seemed unable
to rally from the shock it gave her.
Only tho revengeful, excited Prescott
waa alive to the real issue of the mo­
ment.
“Do you see?" he cried in jeering, ex­
ultant tones. “He dares not deny it.
Let him dare say it ain’t true! I’ll
prove what I say—I’ll prove it now and

"I neither affirm nor deny it. Let mo
pa*w."
The words were a sob. With dazed
eyes. Ills face a void of misery, Paul
Dalton groped blindly for the door.
Through it he passed. Upon him it
closed. Tho crafty Prescott himself
was nmazed. He had counted on tri­
umph, but the victory had come too easy
to nim. The victim had submitted with­
out a struggle. He had not even afforded
him an opportunity to gloat over his
downfall.
Fanner John had sunk to a chair,
fairly overcome. He had boused not
only a thief, a trifler with the affections
of his only child, but a man reeking with
the prison-rot—branded as a wretch,
with bis hand against every man, and
every man’s hand against his own!
Choking down her dread, her uncer­
tainty, her anguish, Ruth managed to
totter to her feet.
“Father," she walled. "I love him." An awful frown darkened the brow of
John Elliott.
"Silence!" ho ordered sternly. “Speak
that man’s name in my presence again
and I disown you. Meet him, even ad­
dress a single word to him, aud I curse
you. And I trusted him—a thief, a Con­
vict."
“It is false. Father! father!" cried
Ruth, “can you think it true when you
remember his goodness? His face is
not the face of a criminal, and his words
to me—oh! my heart is breaking, break­
ing."
“Why, he did not even deny it," mut­
tered Elliott.
“He dared not," burst out Prescott
•Let him try it I hove a man at the
village who knows him—was In tho
same cell with him. He was caged for
forgery, and pleiqierl guilty to gel a
light sentence. Well rid of him, Mr. El­
liott Lucky to get him away without
your throat cut or your house burned
over your head."
Ruth was sobbing piteously. A real­
ization that her tears were shod for tho
man he so hated nettled tho spiteful
Prescott like an ox-g ad.
"And worse than all, he tried to steal
her away from me. He------ ”
“Enough of tills, ordered Farmer
John, sternly. “It’s on experience I
shall profit by. I've heard of such vil­
lains—robbing their benefactors, de­
luding silly girls. He's not the man to
leave us in peace, even after nil the
trouble he has made. He'll hang
around and try to meet Ruth again, and
work on her sympathies, but there shall
be no such risk. Ruth,"you know my
iron will. There will be no further de­
lay. Ralph, your marrying ber was set­
tled long ago."
.
“Father----- "
“Silence! My blessing or my curse—
a convict or an honest man—take your
choice. You marry Ralph Prescott
within a week, or you leave my roof for-

He lifted the crushed girl to her feet,
and led her from tbe room as be spoke.
Her sobs died away in the distance.
Grim-faced, the Roman father in mien
and heart, he stood looking from the un­
curtained window.
The crafty Ralph, gloating with tri­
umph, approached him, but he waved
him glopmily asi&lt;re.
I’aul Dalton crossed the broad stream
of lamplight cast across the gravel path
a minute later.
His head was bowed, hte face color­
less.
Never a word did he spepk, never a
backward glance did he take, until he
bad reached the stile.
His face was one great void of de­
spair as bo halted, and, turning slowly,
looked across the fair field and the
bright' haven that was homo to him no
more.
“It has come," he murmured, broken­
ly. "I might have known it. What
right had I to love, what right to drag
an innocent life to shame and sorrow?
And I dared not deny—I dared not
speak my promise, my oath! Well, it is
only one more fetter to the hoary chain;
but she—it waa no crime to love her—
but heaven forgive me for the grief I
have brought to the woman whose love
was the. one bright star of a cheerless
existence."
He turned to take the highway that
bounded tbe Eden of bls dreams, but
paused suddenly.
From tbe hedge a women’s form bad
flattered.
Her hands grasped his own spasmodicaller a minute later.

duowxio.
•I cannot, I dare not tel! you!”
, The words seemed to sound doom,
disaster to all Huth Elliott’s hopes—tho
despairing misery In Paul Dalton’s eyes
crushed her.
She had pleaded for an answer to that
wild appeal, to know if he was innocent
or guilty, for the sake of the love that
was breaking her poor, anxious heart,
and he had replied to her thus!
. The slinging hands relaxed with a
shudder. Terror Ln her eyes, she sur­
veyed him in dubious dread.
“Oh, my love," she wailed brokenly’,
"you -cannot mean that the cruel words
Ralph Preaoott spoke are true!" He
said you were------’’
•
“An ex-convtct!" cried Paul, the Jaring dissonanoo ot tortured accents In
his tones. “Did ho not also say that he
could prove It, and I"—ho laughed
harshly, bitterly—“I am powerless to
refute him."
Ruth’s eyes distended with shivering
anxiety.
“Then it is true?” she gasped.
He grasped her hands suddenly. He
looked down into her shrinking eyes
with that earnest impressiveness that
told that falsehood could never actuata It.
"They said.I was a thief," ho began.
"Oh. that I know is false!"
"They make another charge, Ruth.
What I have feared has come. Better
for your sake, better for tho sake of
those, you love, bettor for myself, that

gulf all this mystery, a mystery I daro

“You are Innocent. Oh! I see It in
your face. I read it in youp patient,
suffering eyes. Leave you—forget you?
Do you vAlue a true woman’s love so
lightly as that? Speak, Paul! I conjure
you. Glvo mo tho ono assurance my
torn heart craves. Only say that you
are innocent, and though they pile proof

Paul Dalton's pale, undecided features
showed that he was suffering intensely.
"Ruth," he said calmly, at last, "sup­

With a wild cry of joy, of perfect con­
fidence, the fair young girl buried her
face on his shoulder.
“Only suy that," she breathed fer­
vently, “only toll me that you are InnoceuX!"
"It is true—but tbcro all explanation
must cease. Even to you, tho woman I
love, I dare not explain a mystery that
links my life to gloom and doubt My
lips are sealed!"
"But, surely----- "
"Tbe veil will lift?—yes," spoke Paul,
bitterly. “When a heart of iron wills
it—when he—no, I have said too much.
To tbe censor of my into, to the keeper
of my destiny, I will make a last appeal
for Justice. If I fall—good-by! In a
a month I will return, If tho galling
chains can be unlinked."
"A month!" cried Ruth, shudderingly.
“Doyou know what that will moan—do

resolute, will by that time make mo tho
the wife qf tho man whom you and I
know to have caused all this trouble?"
“He would not press the sacrifice—oh,
surely, never!" panted Dalton, his eyes
flashing indignantly. "He would not
doom you, his darling child, to a loveless
existence. It shall not be—I cannot
lose you—I will not see you bound to
wretchedness unutterable. Ruth, I will
clear up this mystery—I will stand in­
nocent before tho world; but if I lose
you----- "
There was the Interruption of passing
pedestrians, and they crossed tho grove.
Toward the distant town their feet
strayed, ho talking earnestly, she cling­
ing to his words and suggestions, trem­
bling, fearful, as she realized that, once
parted, once her father’s resolute will
was carried out, their future happiness
was doomed.
She epod home an hour later, a fright­
ened, anxious look in her young face.
She gained tho bouse unobserved.
“For hla sake!" she murmured. "HeIs
Innocent; he loves me. He has gone to
clear his name—to remove the stain of
shame and mystery. When they know,
I must endure the blow. It was right—
it was the only way; and I love him so
—I love him so!"
Affairs seemed to come bac|^ to' their
usual routine within the course of thfe
next few days.
There was a settled cloud on Farmer
John’s brow, but it waa one of suspicion?
and watchfulness alone, and it became
less dense as he seemed to be convinced
at last that Paul Dalton had left the vi­
cinity for good, and that Ruth was get­
ting over her foolish fancy for him.
Ralph Prescott did not worry Ruth
with either taunts or attentions.
There was a new light In the girl’s
eyes that be did not like—a definite con­
sciousness of security, a mute defiance
that ntadi; him restless.
He was content to await the develop­
ments of the case, and they came quickly.
Farmer John was obdurate, once an
Idea got into his stubborn head.
He made a long coll on Geoffrey

all one day. At eventide, as Ruth Pres­
cott and himself w. re seated in the
cozy dining-room, be said, abruptly:
"Ruth, come here."

had been thinking of him! Guiltily,
trvmbl'ngly, she walked to her father's

is, although it has not been given that
name.
Cycling has never been a
winter sport, hut with this new in­
vention it promises to be a pasUme
the year round.
When winter arrives the average
cyclist oils his machine and puts it
away until spring. Now he can put
a pair of “skates" on his wheel and
spin over snow and ice in the same
easy manner he rode along country
roads in summer.
The new machine is both a summer
and winter one. An ordinary safety
machine is turned into an’ ice cycle
and back again at the pleasure of the
owner. The change from an ordinary
safety to a wintet cycle is simple.

THE

ICE CTC11

.

The front fork and wheel are removed
entirely and in their place is put a
fork with a steel runner attached.
To the back of the saddle is attached
another' fork with a steel runner.
The wheel is taken off, the rubber
tire removed, and in its place is put a
spiked tire. Cuttredge Brothers, of
Lake Geneva, Wis., are the inventors.
A roughly built machine was first
constructed for the purpose of ascer­
taining the practicability of driving
runners by the aid of pedals, chain
and spiked power-wheel.
The original machine was built is
the simplest manner possible to ob­
tain the desired result*. It was made
entirely ot three-quarter-inch iron
pipe, cast and wrought Iron. It thus
weighed sixty-four pounds, and was
a heavy and cumbersome machine,
but this was.expected; tor, while the
idea of a combined winter and sum­
mer machine was uppermost in the
minds of the inventors, the machine
was not built for that purpose, but
as a simple trial of the spikcd-whcel
principle on ice.
Tbe wheel has no rigid connection
with the frame, but works under
spiral springs, which admit of its
raising and lowering to conform to
any unevenness of the road on which
it travels without in any way affect­
ing the frame, and it also protects
the rider from all Jars of the spiked
wheel. On its trial it proved more
than satisfactory, as it was success­
fully run over smooth and rough ice
and snow. The drawing represents
tbe perfected machine, which will be
constructed of tight steel tubing,
steel skeleton runners, etc. Its weight
Is estimated at forty-five pounds, and
will be nearly the same whether It be
arranged for summer or winter use.
To a cyclist the drawing will explain
Itself. It Is arranged to have either
two wheels, or one so arranged that
the cushion or pneumatic tire may
be taken off and a spiked tire bolted
on.
The machine as a bicycle is hand­
some in design, a thoroughly high­
grade wheel in every repect, with full
bearings and spring and rigid frame,
and solid, cushion or pneumatic tire,
as desired.
With a cycle that can be used the
year round, there is little left for im­
provement or invention for the ad­
vancement of the pleasure derived
from riding a machine.
Cool In thp Twentieth Century.

Wt^are using coal in this country,
It appears, at the rate of about 150,­
000,000 tons a year, and with an an­
nual increase which will carry it up
to 200,000,000 tons a year at the be­
ginning of the next century. The
question has l&gt;een raised, what will
■become of the coal, or rather what
will become of the country without
any coal, in the course of the twen­
tieth century, supposing the ratio of
increase in the consumption to con­
tinue unchecked. It has been calcu­
lated that the annual requirement a
hundred years hence, under the con­
ditions named, will be in the neigh­
borhood of four thousand millions of
tons, or about eight times as much
as the entire yearly production of the
world at tbe present time. This is a
formidable prospect, truly; but if we
indulge In looking forward too far,
whether as regards the coal supply or
any other requisite of civilized life,
we are prefty sure to run into a diffi­
culty of this kind. The twentieth
century will have to paddle its own
canoe; and if it Is as bright and
smart as the nineteenth century has
been, it may be trusted to meet all
ito liabilities promptly at maturity.
Besides, in the course of the next
hundred years a hundred things may
happen. In the matter of coal In
particular, there is an immenss mar­
gin for the exercise ot inventive skill
and scientific inquiry to the end that
its capabilities of heat and force may
be more closely utilized, and a reme­
dy found for the large percentage of
waste now Incurred. This Is one of
the possibilities which are in sight,
so to speak, and there may be others
of ten-fold great importance beyond

Mln* at Roslyn. WMhtngton-KM&gt; Semtaa

Blown to Eternity.

The mostf horrible explosion ever
known in tbe Pacific Northwest occurred
at the coal mines of the Northern Pa­
cific Railroad Company st Roslyn, a
•mall town about four miles from tbe
main Upo of the Northern Pacific, 107
miles from Tacoma. At least 42 men
are believed to have been killed. Ex- .
Bltement in the town borders on a state
of frenzy and has extended throughout
tho State. Nothing like it has ever been
known anywhere in that portion of tbe
country, and from all ports of the 8’ato
news of intense interest in the matter
Is being received.
Many dead bodies, according to a
dispatch, have already been taken out.
and hundreds of people have gathered
•round the scene of the accident;
wives and children cf buried men are at
the mouth of the mine and acting like
maniocs . in their terrible distress.
Every body that haa been taken out ud
to thia time is terribly disfigured, and
many of those burled have been
crushed beyond recognition. Some are
horrible masses of flesh without a trace
of tbelr identity left, while many of the
unfortunate men are believed to have
been blown to atoms.
Nearly all of the men were manned
and a large number of them had large
famillee.
. It is thought that the explosion took
place when tbe men were changing
shiftsTbe concussion ehook tbs'
ground’.perceptibly and the noise was
heard a long distance' Smoke belched
from tbe abaft almost immediately,
•bowing that tho mine bad taken fire.
All the inhabitants of Roalyn were on
the grounds in an incredibly short space
of time, and the friends and relatives of
ihc men known to have- been in the
•lope crowded about the mouth of tho
mine, the women and children crying
and the men wringing their hands in
helplessness. Ropes were stretched to
, zoep the people back, and a rescuing
party was hastily formed. In their
grief many of the men acted like mani­
acs, and as one body after another, each
corribly mutilated, was brought out tho
wild exclamations of horror and Borrow
were terrifying. At midnight seven
bodies had been recovered, some of
them crushed beyond recognition, and it
was known that none of tho entombed
men were alive. Thirty-three of the
■lead were married men and had fami­
lies who swarmed about the opening of
the tunnel, hoping against knowledge
of their loss. While the wives and chil­
dren of the victims waited for tho rescue
of the bodies a car load of coffins, sent
from Tacoma by special train, waa un­
loaded, and the coffins were laid side by
•ide near the tunnel awaiting occupants.
If anything could add to tho horror of
tho situation it is the fact that most of
the families of the dead are in destitute
circumstances. For several weeks tho
camp has been dull on account of tho
light demand for coal, and as few of the
men were provident. It is feared that
much suffering will be experienced un­
less aid from elsewhere Is sent.
When the work of rescue began it was
found that the entire interior of tho
mine was clogged with debris, and
nothing could be done until a new air
shaft could be put in. Deadly fumes
Issuing from the mine stifled all
w.ho entered. When tho thhd level
of the slope had been reached and
•everal bodies had been found, badly
mangled and blackened, the presenroe of
a small fire which was roasting some of
the corpses was noticed. This gave rise
to the belief that the explosion was
caused by fire in the mine. Manager John
Kangley, formerly of Illinois, says the
gas accumulated in the slope where new
levels were being driven and before
connections were made with the air
shaft the exposure of* damp to a blast or
match could have caused tho explosion.
Inspectors wore continually on guard in
the mine and reported no accumulation
of gas on the levels and Kangley says
It will probably never be known exactly
what caused the explosion. .

ASSASSINATED BY

RUSTLERS.

Foremat. of a Ca'Ole Ranch Shot Down
from Amtmah.

The rustlers are evidently determined
to beat the big cattle men in this sec­
tion, says a Buffalo, Wyoming, dispatch,
declaring they must either abandon
their property or employ as foreman
only thoao who bear their indorsement.
George Wellman, fore "an of the H. A.
Blair cattle company, In
"known as the
Hoe outfit, waa shot by a-concealed as­
sassin and instantly killed qn the main
road and about thirty mw_as south ot
here. The only known reason tor tho
crime is that he has been notified to
leave tho country and has refused to
obey the order.
The first news of the tragedy was
brought in by Tom Hathaway, an em­
ploye of the same company. He says
he and Wellman started for Buffalo on
horseback. When about twelve miles
out and passing through a rough, broken
country a shot was fired and his horse
sprang ahead and ran away with him.
While trying to subdue the frightened
animal he heard several other shots,
and, glancing tacx, saw his companion
fail from bls saddle. Ho started back
along tho road and met Wellman’s home,
which ho mounted. He saw Wellman
lying in the road motionless, but was
afraid he would share the same fate if
be approached nearer, so he cams in
and gave th; alarm.
There are probably one hundred peo­
ple in thia county, business men and
others, who have b:en warned to leave,
and doubtless others will bo killed un­
less they at once seek a more congenial
climate._____________________

--------------------.
across the mam lagoon, southward from
sat Man ufattaree Building, is
PACIFIC STRUCTURE AT tbe
will be finuihed even to oil details of
ornamentation before Oct. 1. It meas­
ures 500 by 800 feet, and has an annex
300 by 550 feet, and a connected sinembly hall, which has a seating capacity of
1,500. Close by. on the south la ths
Dairy Building, measuring 100 by 200

The northern portion of the main floor
of tho building will bo occupied by the
agricultural and other food exhibits of
foreign nations, which, it Is already as­
sured, will be extensive. Great Britain,
Germany, France, Mexico, Austria,
Denmark. Sweden, Japan, Paraguay,Canada, End a number of other coun­
tries have already been assigned apace,
ranging from 1,000 to 15,000 square feet
each. It is expected that the agricul­
tural exhibits by these countries will bo
as comprehensive as those of our own
country, and will show some features
which will be exceedingly Instructive to
Americans.
Occupying nearly all tho remainder of
tho main floor will be the exhibit of
cereal* and other farm products from
the States of the.Union.' Every State
and Territory, It Is expected, will be
represented by its products. Thus, upon
this one vast floor, covering nearly ten
acres, will be displayed In all their va­
riety and perfection the pick of tho farm
products of the world. It is believed
that the-exhiblt made by this country,
naturally exceeding any other in extent,
will attract great attention, also, by
reason of- ita exceptional merit, and the
comprehensive Information that will ac­
company it.
This great exhibit, or rather array of
exhibits, will be made and arranged In
such a systematic manner that tho vis­
itor, almost at a glance, can tell not
only the appearance of each" object but
what it Is, where it came from, and “all
about It." For, under the regulations
adopted for the Department, Chief Bu­
chanan requires that each exhibit shall
be accompanied with the following data-*
Name of object, name of producer, where
grown, character of soil, date of plant­
ing, quantity of seed planted per acre,
method of cultivation, date of harvest­
ing. yield per acre, weight, price of
product at nearest market, average tem­
perature, and rain or snow fall by
months between planting and harvest­
ing, and whether or not Irrigation was
employed.
On the six acres of floor In the Annex,
which Is virtually an extension of that
of the main building;- will be shown
every description of agricultural ma­
chinery, including not only the best and
most improved now in use, but also such
as will illustrate the progress ot tho In­
dustry, from primitive times to the
present.
In the great galleries of the building,
which are most novel in construction
and perfect in point of availability, will
be located on tho north front, tho wool
exhibit; on*the west end tho npiary dis­
play, which will include working colo­
nies of bees; on tho south front the dairy
implements, and on tho great central
sections the exhibit of the brewing and
tobacco industries, and tho wealth of
magnillccnt exhibits of flours, meals,
bread, pastry, sugars, confectionery,
canned goods, oils, soaps, chocolates,
etc.
One of the most novel, Instructive, and
elaborate exhibits, and one that Will un­
doubtedly attract the attention of every
scientific person and scholar interested
in afly phase of agricultural life, will bo
that made by the Association of Ameri­
can Agricultural Colleges and Experi­
ment Statiohs. This exhibit will occupy
nearly 8,000 square feet of space, and
will be located in tho southwest corner
of the building, on the first floor. It
will represent tho entire work of a
model Agricultural Experiment Station,
covering entirely the field of experiment
and research In crops, botany, horticul­
ture, entomology, feeding stuffs, ani­
mal nutrition, dairy solids, milk testing
and veterinary rclcnce, and will include
an elaborate and complete botanical,
biological and chemical laboratory.
In addition to this, the agricultural
colleges of the United Slates will have,
in this space, a combined exhibit graph­
ically Illustrating tho work aud special
field covered by each college. This en­
tire exhibit is not only unique, but is
something that has never been accom­
plished or attempted at any previous
exposition. Tho exhibit will bo pul up
and conducted by tho directors of tho
different experiment stations and repre­
sentatives of tho different agricultural
colleges of tho United States, each
contributing some part of tho exhibit,
the whole to be Installed In a mag­
nificent manner, at the expense of the
United States Government. This will
give to every visitor an opportunity to
witness tho methods by which tho great
advances In all phases of agricultural
life and research are carried on the col­
leges and experiment stations of the
United States.
Outside the building will be shown
several magnificent exhibits, put up at
a great coat, of the irrigation systems
of the great West On tho lagoon just
south of tho Annex to the Agricultural
Building will be installed traction and
portable engines and a wonderfully In­
teresting exhibit of wind-mill ma­
chinery.
•
All visitors will be interested In the
agricultural exhibit, but its chief value
will rest upon a much broader and more
significant fact. The exhibit will afford
a vast amount of information to many
thousands to whom It will prove of In­
calculable benefit. Tho crops best
adapted to different localities and the
reason therefor, tho mo&amp;t Improved
methods of cultivation that are being
pursued, tho best results that have been
secured and the manner of their secur­
ing. and tho perfection of products In
every lino—all those will be shown and
will constitute the more important les­
sons which the agricultural exhibit will
teach. Through tho thousands who
learn these lessons and arc sure to make
practical utilization of thorn, the agri­
cultural Industries will receive such an
economic readjustment and impetus ns
will result in increased productiveneaa
and merit, and general benefit to tbe
entire country.

Sensible men hesitate before making
any positive predictions us to presi­
ded) rial candidates. ,

There Is politics enough, and to
spare. In th*? newspapers, without
dragging it Into magazines.
■
Rudyard Klppling's latest and
shrewdest bld for popularity was made
when he got the New York papers to
abuse him.

What’s the mailer with Henry
Watterson and Murat Halstead for a
national ticket, on a platform of
"everything goes."
If Mr. Blaine attends anothdV cir­
cus before the Minneapolis convention
' meets ills nomination by that body
will become well-nigh a certainty.
The election of two women as al­
ternates to the republican national
convention was u clever stroke of ad­
vertising for the state of Wyoming.

Was It becouae Mr. Holman does
not like "mint In bls’n ” that he
"knocked out” that appropriation to
build a new U. S. mint in Philadel­
phia?

A young lady who two years ago
enjoyed the distinction of being en■ gaged to two men at the same time,
has just sued the one she married fo r
a divorce.
Hill says Cleveland is an outsider.
Cleveland's opinion of Hill has not
been published, probably because It
would cause the pajxr that printed it
to be thrown out of the mails.
The Senate wanted pork as well as
the House; hence the increase in the
river and harbor bill. It remains to
be seen whether President Harrison’s
stomach can stand a greasy diet-.
The small amount which Mm Dray­
ton gets by her father's will acts as a
much more effective barrier to keep
her out of New York ‘•society” than
her recent escapade with Borrowes.

The New York Stock Exchange has
just celebrated Its centennial anni­
versary- There are lots of people who
believe It would have been better for
the country bad the Exchange never
been born. ’
The gentlemen, reverend and other­
wise, who are engaged In trying to
arouse religious- prejudice in this
country might spend their time better
by studying tbe constitution of the
United States.

Florida orange-growers have made
arrangements to market about onetenth of the orange crop of that state,
next season, in England. Fast steam­
ers are to run between Jacksonville
and Liverpool.
The Czar should employ a corps of
“Sappers and miners" to offset the
newly developed mining propensities
of the Nihilists. Let it be mine
against mine, as it was during Grant's
siege of Petersburg.

“Railroads laugh at federal laws,”
Is a headline In a metropolitan ex­
change. Yes; and at all other kinds
of laws, except that of gravitation.
Their managers sometimes laugh at
applicants for passes.
The passenger who shot at the train
robber who ordered him to hold up
his hands ought to oe given a free
paaa fur life on every railroad In the
world. He certainly deserves It for
having acted so contrary to all known
precedents.

President Harrison's arrangement
for holding that international silver
conference just at the time it will be
most beneficial to him, if he Is renom­

about as shrewd a bit of fine political
work as this country has ever seen.

The vernal springs and the golden au­

�RANKEST OF FRAUDS.
THE BOOU5 CHRIST. GEORGE
JACOB SCHWEINFURTH.

George Jacob Schweinfurth, who

claims to lie the second Christ, Is be­
ginning to realize that all things are
not In his power, writes a Rockford.
HL, correspondent He is consistent
enough, though, to continue his prot­
estations to his band of “angels” that
he still has the whiphand of the uni­
verse, and he therefore continues to
reign In their addled minds as the
king of kings and lord of lords.
His failure, to sway mankind to his
liking in his recent futile attempt to
settle the three healthy damage suits
which were brought against him
and his apostles by “angels" who for­
tunately fell from their estate with
force sufficient to bring them to a
realizing sense of their ineffable stu­
pidity does not seem to sway him in
the least. He did buy up the com­
plainants in pne of the suits, and
thereby escai&gt;cd the Immediate
trouble of a journey to court, where
the inner workings of his heaven
would be revealed, but tbe pieces of
silver offered to the others have not
procured the desired withdrawal.
Rockford people are glad. They
are anxious to see Schwcinfuflh
beaten. They have been waiting for
that event a long while, and it now
looks as if it was well assured. At
least tbe defendants have a remark­
ably good show of winning. Schwein­
furth doesn’t want to come into court
and have his preposterous pretension*
subjected to judicial scrutiny. He
would much rather tax his angels a
few hundred dollars with which to
settle the cases.
Schweinfurth has taken no action
as yet in tbe two suits Instituted
against him by George F. Ostrander
and Matilda Pierce, which are pend­
ing in the Rockford courts. They
each wanted .91,000. They entered
“heaven" several years ago, after the
usual renunciation which the impos­
tor requires from all his followers—
namely, placing all their goods and
chattels at his disposal and consent­
ing to work for him without money
and without price as long as he saw
fit. Before he had brought them
to that condition of servitude,
Schweinfurth had incidentally prom­
ised them golden harps, wings
and other appurtenances of wellappointed angels. When they had
toiled early and late with no other
result than making Schwelnfurth’s
condition mure luxurious, their faith
wavered and- finally deserted them
-entirely. They became convinced of
the utter nonsense of the swindler’s
pretended .godship, and left the farm
in dudgeon to sue for their lost prop­
erty, claiming that Schweinfurth had
failed to keep bls part of the contract
in furnishing the harps, wings and
crowns promised. The Coudrey suit
will be tried in Chicago. It is ex­
pected that when these suits are
tried the inlqultouscommunlty which
Schweinfurth blasphemously calls
"heaven" will be fully exposed. It is
hoped by the good people of this
country, moreover, that It will result
fn the breaking up of the establish­
ment which has so long been a dis­
grace to this portion of the State.
Pending such a culmination, how­
ever, affairs are proceeding as usual
at the Weldon farm, as the “heaven"
is known. The place is about six
miles southeast of Rockford. A de­
scription of the man and bis dupes
Will be of especial interest at this
time. They may not exist much
longer.
* Although Schweinfurth was chary
about speaking of his peculiar estab­
lishment he made no objection to his
visitors inspecting the premises. It
was an interesting tour. The Weldon
farm contains about 500 acres of the
finest agricultural and pastured land
in what may be termed the “garden
spot of Illinois,” and it is cultivated
with tbe greatest of care and skill.
The work w done by the five Weldon
boys and the twelve or fifteen other
disciples who make their abode at
“heaven." The breeding of fine horses
is also carried on quite extensively,
and at good profit

A RAILROAD FORT.

A boat-builder of Oakland, Cal., B.
F. Williams, has invented a device of
a fortified doubled-turreted monitor
to protect? express matter or passen­
gers while traveling through the “bad
lands" of the ra lroad routes.
The plan requires the shell of the
entire car to lje constructed of steel.

these towers are the characteristic
features of Mr. Williams’ Invention.

It is hard for a certain class of peo­
ple to understand that the successes
of art are not the result of clever dex­
terity alone. ■ The idea of anything
like unusual and original power is
quite beyond their comprehension,
and they imagine that works of genius
are produced by rule, as a cook makes
a cake or a pudding.
A person of this kind recently
called upon one of the best known of
living portrait painters, and insisted
upjn seeing him on important busi­
ness, although at the time he was
engaged with a sitter. When he ap­
peared tbe woman said:
“I want you to give me lessons."
“I am sorry,” he said, looking at
her in some surprise, “but I have not
the time."
.
“Oh, I won’t take up any time to
speak of," the caller said. “I can
learn very quickly, and you’ll only
have to tell me how to do it."
“But I never take pupils,” the artist
said, with unmistakable decision. “I
could not think of taking you."
The stranger regarded him with a
look which was hardly less than with­
ering.
“Oh," she said, jeerlngly. “I see
bow it is! You don’t dare to give
away your secret for fear it would
spoil your business.”
Mr. Chappel Is said to lie tbe most
successful pearl hunter in Connecticut.
He searches for, these gems in the

handsome profit on his industry,

May, if the winter has been a mild
one. The pearls are found in fresh

Rev. Lydia Sexton, who has made
Seattle her home for the past three
years, received her license to preach
in 1851, but she was an exhorter for
ten years previous to that, so she h:w
been in the service a full half century.
She Is now 9J and probably the oldest
woman preacher in the country.

An Austrian provincial paper lately
contained the following advertise­

correspondence with a suitable gentle­

exciting story of his experience when
connected with a well-known me­

“After the exhibition was over," he
says, “I passed into the menagerie to
talk to tbe watchman. From some
cause be was absent from his post,
and I walked across the amphitheater
toward my Lid friend, the elephant,
to give him an apple, for wc were the
best of friends. He was one of the
largest elephants I ever saw, and was
as good-natured as he was large. I
was about half-way across the ring
when I heard a growl, and, looking
round, I saw to my horror one of the
lions out of his cage and approaching
me In a crouching manner ready for a
spring. I had sufficient presence of
mind to realize my dangerous situa­
tion, and to know that it required
the utmost caution to extricate my­
self from IL One hasty motion on
my part, and I would be in the jaws
of the monster..
“I felt that my only hope was the
elephant, If I could reach him, but
he was chained by the foot and could
not reach me. Nearer and nearer
came the Hon, waving his tall in a

most vital issue with which the fathers
of the church have ever had to deal.
The conservative traditions of the
ohurch have for iriany years prevented
any change in the Westminster confesaion. If the American church adopts a
revised confession it —
will *be '*
tho first of*
the world's Presbyterian bodies to de­
clare that tho letter of a'croed must give
way before its spirit, and that modern
thought makes a revision of church
standards necessary. The Committee
on Revision has completed Its labors,
and all the presbyteries have declared
for or against the changes proposed.
The question now comes before the su­
preme council of church leaders, and ita
decision will be awaited with great in­
terest.
Besides these special topics there Is a
multitudinous variety of subjects with
which the General Assembly must deal.
The union of evangelical bodies is one of
these. Church unity is more than a
theory in all the leading evangelical
bodies, and it may lie a question of only
a few yearo*when certain lines will dis­
appear in a common effort for the cause
of religion. Like the Methodists also,
the Presbyterians have pronounced
views on practical questions of the day.

It will be seen from these figures that
tho flood of 1892 has not reached a point
equal to those of 1851 and 1858, though
within a fraction of each, but still falls
short of each-by several inches, and of
that of 1M4 by nearly six feet. The
present flood has been sufficient to cover
about tho same area in Illinois as the
previouspnes, in spite of the- increase!!
height and strength of levees, except at
East St. Louis, where tho levee con­
struction has been effective in protect­
ing a portion of the town. Owing to the
vastly increased area under cultivation,
both on the Mirsissippi and Missouri,
the loss from tho destruction of crops
and tho carrying away of houses and
other property will be greatly increased
over that of former years.
The statistics given ehow that the
flood of 1844 is entitled to rank as the
most memorable as to height Like all
the others, it was the result of a long
succession of spring mlns followed by
an unexampled June rise in tho Missouri
caused by the melting of heavy snows in
tho Rocky Mountains. Previous to this
date little if any progress had been
made in the construction of the levee
system above the mouth of the Ohio,
and consequently the stream was not
confined to a comparatively narrow
channel as now. As a consequence,
after it began to overflow its banks a
greater volume of water was required to
cause a moderate rise at St. Louis,
where the river, by overflowing the
American Bottom, spread to a width of
eight to ten miles. Yet it then reached
a height of nearly forty-seven feet
above low water, covering the whole
of what is called “The Levee" or
Front street, where now the lower rail­
road bridge crosses the river, and flood­
ing the business houses on that street
to a depth of several feet. As tho city
has since been extended to the bottom
lands, both above and below the old
city, some idea may be formed of the
increase of the area exposed to the rav­
ages of the present floods. Tbe whole
of the "American Bottom’ opposite St.
Louis, extending from Alton to Chester,
and covering an area of one to ten miles
wide by ninety miles in length, was
completely submerged with the excep­
tion of a few mounds and ridges, so that
steamboats reached the Illinois bluffs
from eight to ton miles from St Louis.
It has since become one of the most
highly cultivated and productive sec­
tions of the State, and the loss in the
destruction of some crops and in delay­
ing the planting of others, to say noth­
ing of other property, is almost incal­
culable.
Of course all these floods, with others
which occurred at later periods, inflicted
immense damage upon the lower Missis­
sippi, where thp levee system was not
as complete as it is now. A flood in
1882 dovasted nearly 600,000 acres in
the States of Arkansas, Mississippi, and
Louisiana and compelled the furnishing
of rations by the Government to 130,000
homeless people, with tents for shelter­
ing large numbers. Tho loss in Louisi­
ana alone was estimated at $2,000,000.
Another flcod in February and March,
1890, which was chiefly confined to the
lower Mississippi, coming from the
Arkansas and Red Rivers, was also very
disastrous. Tho number of "crevasses"
(breaks in levees) during the present
flood has been very great, and heavy
loss is inevitable.
Floods in 1876 and 1880 caused heaTy
loss to the farmers on bottom lands in
Illinois between Warsaw and Quincy,
and between Quincy and the mouth of
the Illinois, In consequence of the
breaking of newly constructed levees,
which protected a large area of recently
reclaimed farming lands. There were a
few losses of life, many narrow escapes,
and the destruction • of growing crops
was almost complete. The rise at Quincy
in T851 was 22.8 feet, in 1876 19 feet,
and in 1880 17 feet. So far this region
has escaped serious* disaster, but the
Des Moines River has burst its bounds
near its mouth and wrought havoc among
the rich farms in the rearot Alexandria,
Hl.
Doubtless the most memorable and
disastrous floods in this country have
been those occurring in tho Ohio, usu­
ally at the time of some sudden breaking
up of.-the ice in the winter or early
spring. The following are the limits
above low water reaciftd in Cincinnati
in different years: 1834, 64 feet 4 inches;
1847, 63 feet 7 Inches; 1862, 67 feet 4
Inches; 1882, 58 feet 7 Inches, and 1883
(the highest ever known), 66 feet 4
inches. The latter destroyed a number
of lives, millions of property and de­
vastated several prominent cities,
Shawneetown, Ill., being. among the
number. ______________________

Victory for tho Women.

The next important step was the wom­
an question, which, aft?r a hard
fight, resulted in a slight victory for Ute
ladles. Dr. HamHton is tho Moses who
led the women out of tho wilderness of
obscurity. His resolution requires that
In order to constitutionally settle the
matter a proposition be feferred to the
annual conferences whereby the words
“who shall be men only" shall follow the
words “lajr delegates." In order to in­
terpret the words in that manner threefourths of the annual conferences must &lt;
so vote, tiien two-Uiirds of the next gen­
eral conference must concur in that In­
terpretation. It will thus be seen that
the women, who control a majority of
the conferences, will win the day Ln the
next general conference, although they
will not bo able to be seated until eight
years hence.
Another important piece of legisla­
tion was the refusal to remove the time
limit on the location of preachers Tire
provisions remain as they were enacted
at tho last general conference, five
years the maximum location. Tho re­
fusal to increase the number of bishops
or to locate a residence in Europe and
Japan were other features of Importance.
The powers of the bishops were cur­
tailed in tvfo Instances. The conference
is given tho power of rejecting tho ap­
pointment of a judiciary committee
which passes on appeals, and -the bish­
ops were denied the right to appear be­
fore the book committee to argue in fa­
vor or against an appointment to fill a
vacancy. The proposed change in the
discipline relating to amusements died,
failing to be brought before tho confer­
ence, as also did the resolution of Dr.
Hanlon asking tho church to put Itself
on record in reference to its position on
the controversy between capital and la­
bor.
Despite tho assertion of the bishops
that the church has no place in politics
tbe conference adopted tbe report of the
Committee on Intemperance, which
pledged supro't to all organizations
banded together to suppress the liquor |
traffic. Later on a resolution declaring
that tho conference did not construe its

I Prophesying about the weather is al। ways an anxious business. It la very
different from running an oracle after
tho Delphic pattern, dispensing ambigu­
ous replies to fool questions. If the
rainmaker of the Congo promises a
shower and it fails to arrive ho is dis­
credited as a fraud. It is much the
, same .way in the Signal Office at Washi Lagton.
The weather reports, which oome by
telegraph to tho Signpl Office at 9
o'clock every night, are curiosities in
I themselves. Here is an actual specii men, illustrating the style:

I fifty-two hundredths of on inch ot rain

Inspiration goes a long way in the busi­
ness of phrophecy. Incidentally, it is
worth saying that tho most important
office of the signal service is not to make
predictions, but to study meteorology,
for the benefit of farmers chiefly. The
advantage to them of being able to ob­
tain tho fullest Information respecting
climatic conditions in any locality, so
that they can know where to settle and
what crops -to expect success with, is ob­
viously incalculable. '

SHOT BY HIGHWAYMEN.

One of the most daring attempts at
train robbery that ever occurred In
Florida took place at 1:30 o'clock the
other morning on tho Jacksonville,
Tampa, anil Key West Road, just north
of Monroe Junction, four miles from
Sanford, Fla. The West India fast mail,
which left Tampa carrying two express
cars, tho United States mails and some
passenger coaches, was Loardcd at Mon­
roe Junction by four men. When just
north of tho junction and while tho train
was running ^t about five milis an hour,
two of tho men got on tho engine and
presented revolvers at the beads of
Engineer Dumas and his fireman, order­
ing them to keep quiet at the peril of
losing their lives. The engineer and
fireman being taken by suqirlso could
do nothing but obey, as bo deter­
mined action of tho desperadoes
showed
they . meant
what
they
said: Tho two other mon entered tho
express cars, which were occupied by
Messenger W. N. Saunders and Special
Agent I. M. Cox, and attempted to over­
power them. Tho two expressmen, al­
though taken by surprise, made a des­
perate resistance and tho robbers then
deliberately shot Saunders, two bells
taking effect In his breast and head, kill­
ing him instantly. Mr. Cox bad his man
at bay end was about to subduo him,
when the other robber, after killing
Saunders, fired at Cox twice, one ball
hitting him in tho arm and tho other
hitting him in the face, tho ball pene­
trating to the left eye. His nose also
was shot nearly off. Tho desperate
villains then hurriedly and without
securing any booty Jumped from the car,
fearing that the nolso of the firing would
bring tho train hands to the rescue, and
fled to the woods, which are particularly
dense is that section. There was be­
tween $35,000 and $40,000 in the safe.
Railroad* In India.

Railway travel in India may oe
made very cheap, for although firstclass fare is three cents a mile, the
second-class is but a cent and a half,
and third-class only a half cent Ono
has little trouble with his baggage
at the stations. As soon as the train
stops, says the author of “Indlaka,"
he has only to go to the door of his
compartment and call out, “Kull
hai?" which means, “Is there a porter
about?" and the question will be
answered by one or perhaps half a
dozen barefooted natives.
At tho time of the decennial pil­
grimages, thousands of natives take
the train, crowding in with such per­
sistency that there Is no withstand­
ing the pressure.
Sometimes the
railroad officials stand near the cars,
and with great bamboo rods beat
away the pilgrims, pounding them
over the head and shoulders with all
their might, in order to prevent the
dense crowd from overwhelming the
train.
The pilgrims and the ordinary
natives use the third-class carriages,
but Europeans are taking to them
very rapidly. When Bishop William
Taylor was making his four years’
evangelistic tour through India, be
succeeded in setting that economical
fashion. It was not then considered,
respectable to adopt such humble
means of travel, and he was asked:
"Why do you ride In third-class
cars?"
His reply came on the instant
"Because there are no fourth-class
cars!"
Since then, it has been respectable
for Europeans to travel by any clasa.

FROM A SINGLE STONE.

Seven

Wonderful Temples Carved
From tbe Solid Rock.

Mayallpuram, India, is graced with
seven of the most remarkable temples
in the world, each of these unique
places of worship having been fash­
ioned from solid granite boulders.
Some Idea of their size may lie gleaned
from the fact tbat.thc smallest of the
seven is 24 feet high, 17 feet long and
12 feet wide, and Is divided Into upper
and lower stories. Travelers who have
carefully examined these relics say
that it must have taken centuries of
labor with the crude tools of ancient
times to carve, these graceful edifices
from the native rock. The architectu­
ral proportions are perfect and the
work well executed, the carved min­
arets on some of them being equal to
the finest work done by the skilled
marble-cutter of to-day. The"HevasaGoda-Cia," the largest of the seven, is
three stories high, its outlines resem­
bling those of an Atlantic steamship.
The inside of the boulder has been
chiseled away until the walls do not
exceed eight inches In thickness. The
two floors above that of the founda­
tion are each about a foot in thickness
and seem as solid as the Rock ot Ages.
The upper stories are reached by a
spiral stairway, carved from the same
piece of granite that the temple itself
is fashioned from, which is an archi­
tectural triumph that would puzzle
the finest workman on the world’s fair
buildings to duplicate. The second
largest'of these single-stone buildings
has a portico II feet wide and 17 feet
long, ornamented with four crouching
Hons and two elephants, aH carved
from the same boulder, which goes to
make up the main building.
SANDWICH ISLANDS.
Another kitchen conspiracy at Hon­
olulu has aroused gossip In regard to
the annexation of the Sandwich IsItnds to the United States. The fu­
ture of these Islands bids fair to be­
come a question of great importance
when the Nicaragua canal Is com­
pleted. Situated in the track of all
commerce passing between every coun­
try of North and South America and
Australia. Japan, India and China,
the Sandwich Islands are the commer­
cial sentries of the Pacific ocean. The
nation which controls these barren
volcanic rocks will hold In its bands
the commercial control of four con­
tinents. It has always been the safe
and prudent policy of these United
States to secure no foreign acquisi­
tions. Of late years the revolution in
conuuetclal ^methods has taken his­
tory far beyond the time when such
a policy was supported by every con­
sideration of national safety, within
a tew years at the latest the Sandwich
Islands must pass into the hands of
some ot the great commercial nations.
Nothing but a miracle can prevent
such a happening. Shall this vantage
point, controlling all the lines Of tran­
sit between our Pacific coast and I he
remainder of the world, become the
property of England, Germany, France
or the United States? This is a ques­
tion which we must decide at no very
distant date.

Literary Note.
The June number of “Romance” contains
sixteen original and selected stories of remark­
ably high and even merit | stories of America,
England, France, Spain, Russia, India and the
high seas. The balance between graye and
gay, tbe wild and the reasonable. Is admirably
maintained. One sheds a tear Jover Alphonse
Daudel’s’’Last Class,” or Lydia PaachkoiTs
touching “Marpha’ ; laughs over tbe wit of
Victorien Sardou and Madame Bazan; sb ud­
ders over Guv de Maupassant's terrible des­
cription of "Fear"; and hastens through “Tbe
Thief in tbe Grange,” “Running Down a
Slave Ship.” aod others like them, in order to
reach the solution of their dever mysteries.
Of special interest is tbe production, for the
first lime in English in thia country, of “The
Bong of the Swan," by Georges Oh net. This
distinguished Frenchman, whose popularity in
his own nation is phenomenal, is too little
known lu America. This magazine is issued
by Romance Publishing Company, Clinton

Clever Swindle by a Woman.
A well-dressed woman entered a
store at Elmira, the other day, bought
•75 worth of goods and asked that
they be sent to a hotel. They were
sent by a clerk. She presented a 11.000
bill in payment. He asked her if it
was good. She was very indignant at
tbe question, and told him to go to
any hank and see. He went out and
found It good, and came back with
profuse apologies for having raised
the question. She, however, was now
virtuously angry at his suspicions and
utterly refused to take the goods.
The crestfallen clerk took his bundle
lack to the store. In the course ot an
hour, however, she oppeared, very pen­
itent for her temper, asking the
cleric,b pardon In the sweetest way,
and offered again to pay for the goods.
The apologies were accepted and the
goods paid for, tU25 being given in ex­
change.
In another iiour It was
found that tbe second bill was coun­
terfeit, but the woman was nowhere
to be found. She had taken the goods
with her, and still possesses the 1025
change.

only an evidence of civilization but a
means to that end.

that is, dried by being placed in a

and then placed on the top of anoven

"Uncle" Obed Wilson never could
bear to hear evil spoken of any one.
His wife used to say sometimes,
“Sakes alive, Obed, folks’ll think ye
don’t know what's what ef ye alnt

who was famed throughout the neigh­
borhood of Jeffstown for Ills “shiflessness.” His farm was capable of yield­
ing good returns, but it amounted to
nothing in his hands, and Uncle
Obed’s soul was greatly tried; but no
one, not even Aunt Polly, could get
him to say anything severe about bis
nephew Frank.
The only response he made to Aunt
Polly's vigorous and scornful remarks
was to say, gently, “Easy there, naow,
Folly; easy there, my gal.
Frank
does lack jedgment, mebbe; but then,
who don’t?"
“Lack jedgment!" Aunt Polly would
say, incapacitated by ber wrath for
further speech; and there the conver­
sation always dropped.” But one day
Aunt Polly had hefreveuge; and was
forever after contented.
Whatever
her husband might say, she knew
that for once she had heard his real
opinion in regard to his f-hiftlcss re­
lations.
Uncle Obed came home from his
nephew's late in the afternoon, drove
into the tarn, and stopped to attend
t» the. milking before coming into the
house. Aunt Polly went out to speak
to him in great vqxation of spirit.
She had planned to ask him If he
“really cal’lated any of Frank’s folks
was wuth Iosin’ a hot supper fer;" but
when she crossed the barn threshold
she changed her mind.
Theic, seated on the milking-stool
before old Bess in a most dejected at­
titude, looking abstractedly at tbe
big lantern which stood beside him
on the floor, was Uncle Obed. He
did out hear ber approach, and as she
stood for a moment in the doorway
she heard him say:
“The farm’s lookin’—an’ they’re
lookin', th’ whole lot on ’em—I
mustn’t say so, o’ course—mustn’t let
Polly know, in special—but they suttinly air lookin' like th’ last o’ pea
time over t’ Frank’s^
As he settled to his milking with a
sigh, Aunt Polly stole softly frefti the
barn, and when Uncle Obed’s work
was done he had a good supper and
not a cross word with it.
Aunt Polly never found any fault
with “Frank’s folks" to her husband
after that, and whenever she heard
Uncle Obed defending what she

disciple of “good old Jzaak Walton,"

as an angler:

Ing out one morning before sunrise to
fish for pickerel. I had just hooked
a big one, when along came a coun­
tryman. He said nothing, but with
mouth wide open, stopped to see the
fun. The contest had lasted more
than half an hour, when suddenly,
just as I was about to land the prize,
the pickerel, with one last ruth for
liberty, made good his escape.
With a lump in my throat, I in­
stinctively turned to the countryman
for consolation.

Tbe Russian naval estimates for
1892 amount to 17,882,233 rubles, or
2,991,961 rubles more than last year,
which sum is to be spent upop the

clads of 11,000 tons and several iron­

5,§00 tons.

Ralph Prescott stood spell-bound,
overwhelmed. - Ho knew the woman iu
that room; he had met n surprise moat
startling; he had recognized the false
nurse as the laat person in the world he
‘
SOBhad ever expectet
ber hnbilimente.
"It is she! What does It mean? What
can it mean? Oh, this is bewildering,
improbable."
She? Yes; the one wo#nan in the world
wbo filled hia mind's thoughts to the
exclusion of all others. She—Ruth! the
disowned, the wife of another, the heir­
ess of Maple Leaf Farm.
There could be no doubt as to her
identity; there could be no mistake;
there was no need of a second glance.
The same pure, soulful eyes looked
forth, only a trifle sadder than of yore;
the fresh bloom of roses on the pearly
cheek was the same, only a trace of the
canker of care, had paled It almost Im-,
perceptibly. Resolution compressed the
lips slightly, anxiety brooded on the fair
brow, but—Ruth Elliott was there!
What did it mean?
From wonderment to fishing suspici on the thoughts of the enrapt lurkcr
passed rapidly.
Buth El liott was here, ha J been here
for over a week. She had passed the
cynosure of curious eyes with her iden­
tity ungurssed; but had not Geoffrey
Forsythe known her—had not he possi­
bly even suggested the disguise?
If so------ In the bewildering Jugglery
of surmise, doubt, and speculation Ralph
Prescott lost himself.
Here, Indeed, waa a mystery—a mys­
tery with a motive, surely—a motive
that had made of a timid, shrinking girl
a bold, resolute woman. For sweet
love's sake she had undertaken a mon­
strous Imposition; but why and where­
fore tho tangible Issue of it all?
“It's beyond me—I can’t understand
It," breathed tho lurkcr. “Hut I will
know. Where there is secrecy there is
mystery, where mystery, a plot. I
thought myself a master hand, and this
girl—she has outwitted,
defeated,
crushed me utterly."
He drew back from the window as he
saw that she slept His sinister face
expressed every emotion in the gamut
of a scheming rascal’s mind—avarice,
suspicion, love, hate, vengeful persist­
ency.
.
For an hour he ruminated alone in
the garden.
Night Influences were
about him. The brooding clouds all in­
spired him to subtlety and plotting.
He approached the broken shutter
again. Ruth slumbered.
"I will act with caution," he muttered
grimly. "A sudden confrontation might
precipitate flight
I will watch and
wait—but—1 must know what her con­
tinued presence hire means/ I must
know her scheme. I must balk its out­
come, if possible. The letter she was
writing!—that may reveal all. If I
could only get a glimpse at that!"
Prescott approached the unshuttered
window of the vacant apartment The
door of communication with the adjoin­
ing one was closed securely. Buth
slumbered profoundly.
He was an adept at sneaking into the
house after late hours, a natural burg­
lar, too.
s
With his pocktt-knlfc and a rusted
piece of hoop, he forced the catch and
pried up the window saah. ^ ^,The next moment he was in the room.
On tip-toe ho advanced to the stand
where the written sheets lay outspread.
Eagerly he took them up. Hia elfish
eyes scanned their contents.
The joy of a great gloating exulta­
tion came into bls eyes as he read the
story of a woman's struggle for the
righVfef a woman's faith In a loved one's
Mcltty.
*
For the letter told all—It cast light on
darkness, it constituted the history of
m singular an exploit as ever fell under
the eyes of mortal man.

lt was fortunate fer the secret plans
of Ralph Prescott that the occupant of
the adjoining apartment slept, for so ab­
sorbed waa he in reading the letter that
lay before 1dm that he was Impervious to
Ruth's well-known
dainty handwriting.' It was addressed
_ to Paul Dalton, her husband and It was

Q J-. Hamlin, of Buffalo, N.
will
l»e likely to make most of the breed­
ing establishments shake in their
boots this year. His mare Chimes
Girl, will make some of the 3-year-olds
trot to beat her In 1893.
Trotters are’ often as notional as
pecplo. Nancy Hanks acquired the
nalut of stopping at the tent door and
waiving to be tolled in by a bunch of
gra-s before she goes into a shoeing
shop. Just so when she comes out in
harness and Doble mounts the sulky,
she cogitates over the matter before
she heeds the "get on" and pat from
the driver’s hand on her quarter, but
if she should be struck with a whip in
her stall no window would be too high
or too small for her to try to jump
through it.
Tbe next week after the Nashville
races will occur the spring races at
Hastings, the dates being June 16,
IT and 18. There are already numer­
ous entries and the event promises to
be a greater success than anything of
the kind ever held In Hastings. Many
of the horses which arc entered here
will go.from here to Hastings, and
there will probably be dome horses
there not entered here, so that there
will undoubtedly be good entertain­
ment for the whole three days.
Give the Boya a Practical Business
Education.

Tl.ere never was a time in the his­
tory . r this country when the absolute
neces-ity of a careful business pre-parat Ion was made so manifestly apparent as it is «wiay. Conditions are rapidly changing at the present time.
The chances for maintaining a family
and securing a home are very poor,
indeed, for the man who lacks the
necessary qualification or- practical
business training to enable him to go
out into the rushing, crowding, jost­
ling, matter-of-fact world, and make
something or ix&gt; something which de­
mands the application of skill.
There is no demand for unskilled
labor. The old countries of over­
crowded Europe have been using this
ebuntry as a common dumping ground
fur their surplus population to such
an extent that the American market
for common, unskilled and uneducated labor has become so completely
glutted that an American torn cit­
izen in the condition above described,
is compelled to lay aside his working
outfit, hang up shovel and hoe and en­
list as ajeommon private in the mighty
army of satellites who manage by
hook and by crook to secure, a precar­
ious living off the industry of others.
Occasionally a man of this class, endowned with an unusual degree of
Yankee smartness and not too heavily
burdened with conscience, succeeds in
amasing unite a property; but the
rank and file are pushed to one aide—
victims of early neglect or of wasted
opportunities.
“Go West, young
man,” will no longer afford an escape
from tbe difficulty. There was a time
when Uncle Sam was supposed to be
"rich enough to give us all a farm,”
but when we read of the terrible
scramble which 40,000 men, women
and children made theotherday down
in Oklahoma, to secure the privilege
of buying a little spot of alkaline
earth In which to drive a home stake,
we conclude that the supposition was
a shortsighted one. When w&lt;» read of
the mad rush for a small piece of bliz­
zard-stricken and drought-cursed Da­
kota earth, when Uncle Sam gave the,
signal and yelled “go," In the Sisseton*
reservation race, we wondered why
these crazy people did not go and
quietly settle on some of our Uncle’s
FKEKrAKMS. It reminded me of my
first “caravan," when I lingered to
witness the feeding of a c^ge of hun­
gry lions. The lions were wild fero­
cious brutes, but in their scramble fur
meat, they exhibited about the same
intensity of desire, and about the
same disregard for their fellows, as.
tbeovercrowded and land-hungry &lt;Mtizens of this country do when Uncle
Sam Vases them a small slice of
fcnirth-claas real estate. For the want
of room, war to the- knife has been de­
clared between t he cattle raisers and

A. 8. MITCHELL’S,

Women Inventors.
New York State outnumbers hy
many hundreds other states in the
number of patents granted to women,
MG having been taken out since the
year 1809, 96 being granted during the
last three years. Massachusetts is
next, while Pennsylvania ranks third.
Two hundred and forty-seven patents
have been granted to women of our
state, 36 having been taken outduring
the last three years. Of this number,
Philadelphia has furnished nearly
one-half.' Of these, Marie E. Beaseley, famous for having invented a ma­
chine for turning out complete bar­
rels by the hundreds, has l»ecn grant­
ed no less than ten patents. Besides
the best known and most generally
employed appliances for making bar­
rels, she is the patentee of a life-sav­
ing raft, a machine for pasting shoe
uppers, a steam generator and many
other useful appliances.
The women of Philadelphia are sty
llsh or nothing, and iu tbe member of
their Inventions they have not over­
looked anylhingthat would in their
opinion Improve upon their personal
attractiveness. ' They do not pose as
being particularly strong-minded, but
since it ha* been done by the women
of Massachusetts and especially those
of Boston, it is not without point to
notice that but of nearly three hun­
dred patents granted the women of
that state, twinthirds have been Im­
provements upon corsets, hoop-skirts,
bustles, hair curlers: In short, all such
flummery in the line of wearing ap­
:parel, and the balance, with the sev­
eral
exceptions 1 shall name, were
1
taken out on various good - and useful
]things growing out - of house-hold
,
thrift.
To the renown of our sisters of that
state, let it be known, tbe Bret foun­
tain pen was the Invention of Susan
.S. Taylor, of East Cambridge. And
■let Helen L. Mucker have due credit
for an improvement in alloys to imi;
tate silver, and Annie M. Gctchel) a
process for hardening copper. But
the greatest achievement was that of
Miss Margaret E. Knight, who In­
vented a complicated machine for
making the useful square-bottomed
paper bag, and refused #50,000 for the
patent, and who has since Invented
another machine that does the work
'of thirty pairs of bunds in folding
'these bags.—Philadelphia Times.

Ralph Preecott needed no further In­
formation on which to baa© rapid, pro­
gressive action.
His eyes gleamed aa if the happiness
of a lifetime had come in one flashing
second of Bnace.
HU face showed satisfaction, supremo
confidence, victory.
He started straight back to Ridgeton
that very hour, only.on the way he halted
at a little town.
It was the one the miller had referred
to aa the place where he had traced his
runaway daughter and her thieving hus­
band.
Ralph Prescott visited the clergyman
of the village. He was closeted with
him for an hour or more.
When he resumed his journey, his evil
face was more victorious than ever.
Plot and counterplot kept his thoughts
busy until he reached Rldgclon.
He did not proceed at once to the for­
mer home of the reeluse, Geoffrey For­
sythe.
A night’s rest and reflection were
necessary to act clearly and make no
mistakes.
At dark the next evening he knocked
boldly at the doer of the bouse that
now sheltered the disguised Ruth Elliott.
She opened it timidly. Her glasses,
false hair and widow's cap well con­
cealed oil traces of the youthful face be­
hind them..
“I wished to see you on a matter of
business, Mrs. Easton," said Prescott
plainly.
The woman did not ask him in. Slightly
nervous, she said:
“I do not see what business you can
have with me, sir?"
"It is In reference to Mr. Forsythe’s
will.”
“You had better sec his lawyer, then."
“No, I must see you. Please admit
me. It is a matter of Intense personal
importance to yourself alone."
Reluctantly, the disguised Ruth ad­
mitted her unwelcome visitor.
She was more disturbed at the prox­
imity of a man she dreaded than at any
thought of his penetrating her disguise.
The lamp in the room was shadtri so
as to cast her face In shadow. She hod
successfully adopted a tone that little
resembled her natural voice.
"Be seated," she said, calmly.
"Thank you. Now then, Mrs. Easton,"
pursued Prescott, briskly. "I have come
to see you about—Paul Dalton!"
CHAPTER XII.

CRC8HBO.
Ralph Prescott fixed his eyes penstratingly upon his hostess, as he en&gt;
pbaslxed the name he had spoken.
Something sinister in their expression
caused Ruth to start slightly. With
masterly control of the role she had as­
sumed, however, she said simply:
"Proceed, sir."
- "You know this man. You have been
seeking to find him."
"How dare you interfere in my af­
fairs."
"Because—I know you."
That was the climax. The words
were simple, but they comprised a vol­
ume in expression and significance.
“You know me?" faltered the dis­
guised girl.
“Yes. Ruth Elliott, I know you."
The mask was down. He had expected
a scene—agitation, hysterics. He was
mistaken. Only a flutter of the false
hair, a slight contraction of the muscles
about the eyes, and Ruth looked up
steadily.
"Yes, Ralph Prescott, you have pene­
trated my secret, but I warn you I am
no lunger the timid girl who shrank at

"Indeed!" sneered the nettled Pres­
cott.
"Rut the wife of a man for whose sake

sorrow, and pain. You knotf me. What
■of it? My story will show nothing crim­
inal in my being here disguised—rather
merit, necessity."
“I know all your story, all your plot­
tings, all your hopes------ "
"I doubt it."
"And I come to warn you, to aid you,
Ruth," and the schemer’s accents grew
tender. "We were friends once. We
must be again. ”
-Must!"
"Yes; for if you ever needed a friend, a
counselor. It Is now. You believe me
sordid, heartless, selfish. It Is not bo.
For your sake I come here—for yours
alone. You have been, you are being,
wretchedly, wickedly deceived: Your
busband——-”
The imperious mandate rang forth
clear as a clarion note.
As Ruth rose indignantly to her feet,
her eyes flashing, her voice vibrating
with firmness, the craven cowered.
“I will speak!" he muttered, doggedly.
"I nay you are being deceived."
“By my husband?"
,
"By the man you believe to be your
husband. ”
"Do you dare Insult me by doubting?"
"His honesty, his fidelity? Yea, Ruth

A novel and very- remarkable In­
dustry has recently been started in
New York. It is intended for the
convenience of persons who have
friends In other cities in this country
or abroad to whom they may desire
to pay polite attentions. Suppose
that a lady of your acquaintance Is at
present In Vienna and you wish to
send her a bouquet. Il is very easily
managed. You drop into a certain
florist’s on Broadway and pick out
flowers suitable for your posy. With­
in two hours the bouquet you have
selected is delivered to the Intended
recipient. The florist has an agent
or correspondent in Vienna to whom
be cables the order, stating the num­
ber of flowers of each kind, etc., aud
tbe name ot tbe giver is written on a
card and attachedzto the bunch of
blossoms before it is conveyed to the
address indicated. It is the same
with other cities in Europe and
America. If your lady love is in San
Fra’ncisoo you can send her a bunch
of violets or a bouquet of roses by
wire, as it were, within a few
minutes.

first regular Indian troop or company
organized—was begun among the Biule

Rosebud Agency, South Dakota, in I
April, 1891.
In order to expedite the enlistment as

inducements would be offered by tho
.Government, aud what duties would in
return be required, of Indian soldiers,
the first week at tlie agency was demoted
by the officers* recruiting party to a series
of"talks" with all the braves, young aud

brought to a fitting close by a grand
council, participated In by a very large

To the Brules, tho great* st obstacle
to enlistment' was. naturally enough,
the bfct that the latter would probably

Another objection raised at the couch
dl was the desire of the chiefs to have
their own favorite young men appointed
non-commissioned officers immediately,
with a view to their becoming commis­
sioned officers later on. It was with
great difficulty that this point was set­
tled, until the Carlisle men explained to

There is a cqnunon feeling among our
army officers throughout the West to
disapprove of the enlistment of Indiana
as soldiers. No one seems to question
the benefits accruing to the In-liana by
the 'discipline and contact with civilized
speech, manner, and costumes. But by
many It Is not believed to be the func­
tion of our small but efficient army to
act as public educators, and ft must be
confessed the molding of tho Indian
soldier requires an education in many
things not directly pertaining to the
military profession; and these critics
hglieve that our army has enough to do
to take care of its own efficiency with­
out undertaking the civilizing of the In­
dian.-, Probably similar views were ex­
pressed upon lhe organization of the
negro regiments. Be this as it may, the
scheme is not without prededent in the
military establishments of India,France,
Russia and other foreign countries.
Probably our anqy would feel better
satisfied^ and greater good would result,
were an Indian regiment of cavalry and
ot infantry organized, without decreas­
ing our present strength of white and
colored troops.
The natural pastime of the Indian has
for ages born war and tho chase, and
by combining the allurements of a mili­
tary life with tho use of English wools
and manners, a compromise upon what
is to the Indian monotonous and irksomo
school-room instruction, much of that
obstinate conservatism which has been
so great an obstacle to Indian civiliza­
tion may be broken down and elimi­
nated.

much as Hill was on top in February.
The purpose of that early convention
was to give Hill a grand send-off. It
was believed by him aud his near friends
that a declaration by the Democracy of
New York in his favor would be the in­
itiative of a movement that would land
him in the White House. Subsequent
events proved the fallacy of this prom­
ise. Hill was abort-sighted, and the
ladder on which he expected to climb to
the chief magistracy gave way under
his weight.
When the convention of to-day was
called, HUI was politically prosperous!
Since then Mill's decadence has oc­
curred, and Cleveland’s rise into new
prominence has been equally quick. The
conditions tb-day are different from
those under which the call wa^ Issued.
In fact, they were called Into being by
the February convention, and a pretext
was given for the gathering of the dan­
delions now. The consequences of the
action taken will probably drive both
Cleveland and Hill out of the field and
leave the way clear to nominate Russell
or Pattison from the East or Boles or
Palmer from the West Unprejudiced
political observers of long experience
predict that the nomination will not
come to the State of New Yprk.
Everyone concedes lhe eminent re- •
spectabillty of the delegates that assem­
bled, but old bands at the business of
politics call it a mob jhat could not carry
on a campaign because cf the lack of
working element.i Buch comments, it
should be stated, come mostly from Hill
lookers-on. Chairman Kernan's speech
as delivered was not at all the speech
that had been mailed by the Press Asso­
ciation. The most savage of his thrusts
at Hill did not appear in tho written
pages. There was-no mention of him by
name. He was ignored as tot illy as Cleve­
land was in the convention of February,
which Kernan dubbed "the snowshoe
convention," but Hill’s administration
and his control o’ the party were scored
without mercy. “The delegates of the
February convention," he declared, “will
represent what a few men thought thou,
but the delegates from this convention
to Chicago will represent what the peo­
ple want now." When he reached the
climax of Cleveland, and for the first
time mentioned his name, it wan tho
Blaine convention of 1884 over again as
much as any [State convention could be
with smaller numbers. The delegates
sprang to their feet, mounted chairs, and
shout si themselves hoarse. Fairchild
and Grace, from the platform, started the
waves of applause with their umbrellas,
and it waa at least ten minutes before
the speaker could go on. Another Out­
break came when he made a demand
that Cleveland should be nominated.
This was a step beyond tho policy of tho
moot conservative, but apparently every
one joined in the applause. The way
was then easy for saying: "Democratic
disputes will end at Chicago. New
York Democrats will accept the decision
of the court as final." This sentiment
was cheered to tlie echo, and it showed
that the delegates were f Uli loyal Demo­
crats. The platform adopted contains
declarations against Republican fraud,
the tariff, and free silver.
RESULT OF A DRINK CURE.

George Bradshaw, son of a prominent
resident at Wichita, Kan., died from
causes alleged to have been brought
about by tho treatment he was taking
for the cure of inebriety. He entered
what is known as the "Huntslnger In­
stitute," and soon after taking his first
shot bls mind became affected. Ho was
treated again and that evening had
spasms. His frendssaw the physicians in
charge, but they advised a continuance
of the treatment and gave Bradshaw
three shots again. About midnight,
after an evening of wild raving. Brad­
shaw was again taken with spasms
which lasted until daylight, and a little
later he died. His friends will make a
full investigation.

was leaving home and called i.tm-r
him “Uncle
George.” He had the Swygart pedigree
down to a jileety. Swygart took the
young man in and boasted of his pos­
sessions, and the two came to the unan­
imous conclusion that the Swygart*
were smarter than most |&gt;eople. Then
the nephew's turn to tell a story came,
and it wn* the unreeling of that ro-1
tnance whkh caused the o'.d man to cut
his secund set of teeth all ut oijce. The
nephew sold:

the Indian over with me from Chicago

friend of mine, an aaaayer from the
Philadelphia mint on his way to the San
Francisco mint, and I paid him $100 to

An agreement was prepared in

Th® Oil regions of Pennsylvania were
visited Bunday by • disaater from firs
and water that is only eclipsed in ths
history of tbe State by the memorabls
flood of Johnstown, just three years s«o.
A Pittsburg dispatch says: It i» ddpossible at thia Ums to give
like an accurate idea of tbe 1om of lift
and property, m chao* reigns through­
out the devastated region and a terrible
conflagration still rages in Oil City. It
is safe to say that not leas than 150
lives have been lost Nearly one hun­
dred bodies have already been reoovered
and many people are still missing. Tbe
number may far exceed 150, but this 1*
regarded as a conservative estimate.
The property loos will reach for Into
millions. At Titusville the loss is es­
timated at $1,500,000; Oil City, $1,500,­
000; Corry, $60,000; Meadville. $150,­
000, and surrounding country probably
a million more.
For nearly a month it has been rain­
ing throughout Western and Northern
Pennsylvania almost incessantly, and
for the last three or four days the
downpour in the devastated region*
had been very heavy. The constant
rains had converted all the amall
streams into raging torrents, so that
when tho cloudburst came Sunday
morning lhe streams were soon beyond
their boundaries, and the great Ixxij
of water cams sweeping down Oil
Creek to Titusville, which Is eighteen
miles south of its source.
The lower portion of the town was
soon inundated. The flood came sc
quickly that the people had not time to
roach a place of safety. The watex
soon swefyt a number of oil tanks down
the stream, add in some way not known
they were Ignited. In less time than it
takes to tell the story the flames spread
to the surrounding buildings and before
they could be suWuod live blocks had
been burned.
The oil ’from tho scores of broken
tanks ran Into the creek and was ig­
nited by floating debris. In a few min­
utes tho creek was ablaze from shore to
shore, and as it was curried down tbe
stream death and destruction followed
In its wake. Everything Inflammable
took fire and by the time it reached Oil

A MAN-EATINC OYSTER.

“Your wealthy ladies of Chicago
who assemble at evening parties and
soiree* in magnificent costumes cov­
ered with fine pearls know little or
absolutely nothing, perhaps, about
the- many dangers encountered in
gathering these pearls from the aea,"
remarked J. G. Danvera, of London,
England, at tho Tremont House yes­
terday, says tiie Chicago Herald.
"I was on a trip along the coast of
Zanzibar, Africa, a year ago, when I
learned that sea-pearl flailing is not a
trade for men of weak hearts to fol­
low. The pearly are gathered at tho
bottom of the sea by divers.
Tbe
reason a man with a weak heart is nnt
fit for tbe work is because the stopped
breath and tho pressure of ninety feet
of sea water, with its weight of six­
ty-two pounds to the cubic foot, will
bring on palpitation of the heart and
burnt the weaker vessels, causing
distressing and often dangerous hem­
orrhages. But the divers are all stal­
wart’savages, in such rugged health
that the physical danger never occurs
to them.
“Two dangers constantly menace
the diver.
Wherever the oyster
grows there also thrives the giant
trldachna, a monstrous bivalve, whose
shell is from four to six feet in length,
flrrniy anchored to the bottom. It
lies with Its scalloped shells ’yawning
a foot or more apart.
Immediately
anything touches IC^the shells snap
together, and once these large shells
are closed not a dozen men out of
water could get them apart, far Ifess
the single di Ver, fifteen fathoms deep,
who may have dropped into the capa­
cious mouth or have carelessly put his
hand within its shells while groping
in the gloom.
“If such a fate befall a diver there
is only one thing tor him to do, and
that is to amputate himself from the
enormous mollusk and rise to the sur­
face, fainting, bloody, and mangled.
Those savages will fight* anything
from a lion to‘a python on land, bub
they haven’t the courage to run
against a bivalve under ninety feet of
water and stand the chance of those
yawning shells closing in on an arm
or a leg and crushing the bones to
splinters.
“If the monstrous mollusk should
close down and catch thediver’s head,
of course he would never know what
killed him.
His head would be
mashed to a pulp, and it would go off
as if severed by a guillotine.
I sawonly one native who had. been caught
by one of these mollusks. It had
closed down on his left band, and the
only thing he could do as the mon­
ster held him in its grip was to cut off
the left arm at the elbow joint."
She was a convalescent from la
grippe and as she leaned back in the
depths of her easy-chair she played
with the roses in her lap, which had
been brought to her by the first caller
she had been able to receive, and
smiled over some stories ho was tell­
ing her of a summer at—well,, we'll
only say at a fashionable watering
place on Narragansett Bay, says the
Boston Saturday Evening Gazette.
“One of the beauties whom I used
to see at the Casino," said be, “was a
young married belle about 23 or 24, I
should think, and her husband was
about 60, and it was great fun watch­
ing them.
“There was such a good story, bona
fide truth it was, too, atom their en­
gagement. He called at her home
one evening, and offered W heart,
hand and fortune in correct style.
Pretty Miss Budd said: ‘She must
ask mamma,’ and coyly tripped up­
stairs to mamma, who told her that
every girl did not get such a chance
as that, and of course she was to ac­
cept him.
“Down she went, picturing the ar­
dent lover awaiting her return with
anxious, throbbing heart, and found
the old gentleman comfortably asleep
in the biggest armchair, while an oc­
casional snore attested to the depth
of his slumbers.”
“I hope she didn’t wake the poor
old thing up," said the convalescent,
when she got her breath again after
her laugh.
“Oh, yes, she did. Catch her losing
that chance! She woke him up.jtnd
told him it was all right and she’d
hare him."

by violent cloudburst* and waterspouts,
the mountain Htreams were swollen to
torrents, which In turn mode rirere out

Many families sought
safety in tho bills, while many others

houses in which whole famine* had re­

Many of these unfortunate people were
seen t^lnap into tho water, preferring
a death by that clement to one by fire.

buildings, which would otherwise have
withstood the flood, were thus reduce-!

debris.
But the most awful part of the calam­
ity had yet to come to the flood-stricken
people. An oil tank up the creek hod
been carried from Its foundation by the
flood and its contents spilled over tbe
surface of the water. Reflncriert and
distilleries were made to leak to such an
extent that the air became charged with
gases. Many old residents, noticing the
oil on the water and the go® in the air,
became fearful lest a lire should be
started which would add horror® unto
horrors. One of these. John S. Klein,

There are many theories as to tho

by far the majority assign to the confla­

tho oil on tho water was ignited by a

Major Moore has among his colla­

of Virginia. Th® weapon, which is
a flint-lock is fully 400 years old, and
is still In good condition, and If

The nistol has a brass barrel, which
unscrews about an inch from the
flash-pan. To load It tbe barrel is
unscrewed, the powder poured in and
rammed down. The barrel is then
replaced and the bullet, about three
times as large as a buckshot, is
dropped in. The sight In on the side
of the barrel, about midway between
the trigger and the muzzle. Instead
of sighting over a no!nt on tfie ex­
treme top of the barrel, as one dues
when handling a modern revolver,
the old pistol was held so that the
sight was taken over the knuckles of
the person sighting it, says the Wash­
ington Post.
The pistol was manufactured by
Kitano &amp; Co., London, and was
brought to fills country by a mau
named Mason, who was related to
Lord Fairfax. It remained in the
Mason family until 1(579, when it was
given to an old fisherman by Miss
Mason, a granddaughter of the man

WONDERS OF A TORNADO.

In Kansas they are telling a lot of
most wonderful talcs as to what was
done by the recent tornado. Hero
are some of the choicest-:
In Greenwood County a boy named
Wljlic Henderson saw ills home blown
away, and went to a cistern twelve
feet deep for protection. There was
alxnit three fetft of water In the cis­
tern, and he sat on a lot of boards
which he threw into it. A tornado
took the top off, took out all tho
water and the boy and carried him
fully a hundred feet, where he was
dropped, wet to the skin, but other­
wise unhurt.
Charles Anderson, living near To­
wanda, heard a roaring and went to
the door to see what it was. As he
opened the door the storm struck the
house and carried it away, leaving
him standing In his night-clothes
just where the house had been. It
took the house from under his feet,
and he says he never felt a breath of
wind uutll after the tornado hud
passed and the force of the gale was
again felt.
A threshing-machine was standing
by the side of a l»arn and the wind
tore it to pieces. The boiler of the
steam-engine was taken clear over the
burn aud dropped on the roof cf the
housr? of James Donahue, crushing it
in, and killing a child aged 6 and
breaking Mrs. Donahue’s arm. The
barn was untouched.
A cow, which was standing In a
stable lot near Cherryvale, was car­
ried up to the roof, of a house and de­
posited in such a manner that it was
impossible to get her down without

Texas Target Shooting.

Three or four drummers, home from the
west, were talking In tbe hotel office about
some ot tbe target shooting they had seen
among the cowboys, and lhe tales they told
were evidently listed for heavy discounts.
Listening very Intently and quietly to all they
said was an agricultural looking man, and
when they bad finished be put Id :
“Borne mightn’t believe the storiea you gen­
tlemen have been telling,” be said, “but I do.
I've just got in from Texas, and I saw some
shooting down there that would make me be­
lieve anything.”
“For Instance!” suggested one of tbe drum­
mers as the new candidate appeared to have
some doubts aa to going ahead.
“Well,” be continued tn a grateful tone, “1
saw several of the feats you mentioned, but
one day I saw a thing that beat them all.
There waa a company of militia called lhe
Crockett Riflemen, or something like that, with
about 100 or 110 men tn It, sbooUng at a target
at long range and making more bull’a eyea
than I ever wl toe seed. Finally tbe captain
put up a terget twelve feet square with a six
Inch hole In the center at 300 yards and formed
the entire company in a long line in front of
it- The command to load was given and then
very slowly came ‘ Alm-are,” and by thunder,
gentleman, there wasn't a bullet mark on that
target. Every bal I had gone through the Jbolc
lu lhe middle!”
The agricultural gentleman looked at the
drummers a minute and they looked at him,
and then rote silently and want up stairs to
bed.

The board of supervisors of Barry county, has adopted the above plans of
Architect Albert E. French, of Detroit, for our new court house to be built at
Hastings. It will have a frontage of »7 feet by ffj feet in depth, two stories
and basement. The exterior will tie of Findlay hydraulic pressed brick with
cut stone trimmings. The court rooms and offices are spacious and well
lighted and the building will contain eight fire-proof vaults. It will cost
♦45,000. Competitive plans were received from several states, but those of Mr.
French were selected as meeting most satisfactorily every requirement of the
board.
For this excellent illustration we are indebted to the Detroit Evening
News, which presented It to its readers Wednesday evening.

Farmers are beginning to cut their
hay, but so far have had poor success
in getting 1t dry enough to insure put­
ting it up, and many of those that
have cut claim it Is beginning to rot
on the ground, owing to the wet
weather. Hay Is a good crop In both
Barry and Eaton counties, and the
farmers will be well blessed with the
article, If dry weather will only enme
so as to permit Its cutting.*

Main street has been full of wool
the past week. At times Monday and
Tuesday,
one could hardly drive
through Main street on account of the
blockade of the farmers’ wagons.
Wednesday, two farmers from’ south
of Battle Creek, were In town with
large loads of wool and went away
with empty wagons. As has always
teen the case ip former years. Nash­
ville ranks first among the wool mar­
kets of the state.

Just after noon, before many of the

city. The interior of the wigwam grew
as dark as night, the canvas being let

the Kentucky delegation sat. Mr. Owens
at oso and walked up tbe aisle with the
committee. When they appeared on the
platform the convention applauded, and
the applause was renewed when Chair­
man Brice announced that he had the
“honor and pleasure" of presenting to
the convention its temporary Chairman.
Mr. Brice retired, leaving the space in
front of the Chairmen’s desk to Mr.
Owens.
After bowing to the applause with
which he was greeted, Mr. Owens, in a
good voice, addressed the convention.
Mr. Owens had a respectful and an
interested hearing, and when he came to
the “legions'1’ of the bread and butter
brigade" the convention cheered again
and again.
At the conclusion of the speech the
Chairman asked what the pleasure of
the convention was. Mr. White, of Cali­
fornia, got th’e floor, and offered a reso­
lution providing that the roll bo called
to name members of the different com­
mittoes, and that all resolutions relating
to the platform be referred to the Com­
mittee on Resolutions without debate,

General Bragg, ot Wisconsin, from
the front row, offered ns an amendment
that the rules of. the last Democratic

Mr. White accepted this amendment

to a simple and compjrativelj- pmnleM

surgeon splitting tho outer rim of the
ej-elids in a straight Hue for the Imrest
infinitesimal part of an inch. The wound
is then covered with a thin piece of

Weekly.

Probably there Is no people in the
world so tinciviliccd as not lo have
among themselves a code of manners,
more or less strictly defined. Mr.
Bishop, while on his thousand-milo
walk across South America, was im­
pressed with this fact. He described
i rude meal which he shared with a
company of cart-drivers — “almost
savage gauchos"—in whose company
iie wks then traveling.
We encamped near a swamp, and
supped upon sliced pumpkins, billed
with bits of meat, and seasoned with
salt. The meal was served In genu­
ine pimps fashion: one iron spoon
and two cow’s horns, split in halves,
were passed a roti nd the group, the
members of which squatted upon
their haunches, and freely helped
themselves from the kettle.
Even in this most uncivilized form
of satisfying hunger there is a pe­
culiar etiquette, which the most
lowly peon invariably observes. Each
member of the company in turn dips
hh speon, or horn, into the center ot
the stew, and draws It In a direct
dne toward him, never allowing it to
deviate to the right or to the left.
By observing this rule, each person
eats without interfering with his
neighbor.
Being ignorant of this
custom, I dipped my horn Into the
mess at random, and fished about for
some of the nice bits.
My companions regarded this hor­
rid breach of politeness with scowls
of impatience. They declared with
some warmth to the cook, that
gringos did not know how to eat, and,
“as they lived upon dogs in their own
distant country, they came to the
great Argentine Republic to get food
and grow fat’on the gauchos."
I apologized as well as I could, and
endeavored thereafter to eat accord­
ing to gauefrj etiquette.

The California
State Board of
Health has sent out a circular en­
titled “The Dangers ^vising from
Taking Off the Hat Out of Doors
During Funeral Services."
It at­
tacks the custom strongly and urges
that one funeral is oft-*n the cause of
many, bee just the friends of the
dead stand aroun.I In the open air,
ev n in winter, for many minutes,
while the body is being carried from
housevto hearse, or while the ceremonks at the grave are taking place.
The board asks ministers and chiefs
of lodges and others who may bavd
charge of funerals to “give tho b-meflcent advice to remain covered and
avoid discomfort and danger." The
point is made that remaining covered
when removing the hat mean* peril
to the health Is no disrespect to the
dead, but simply a wise and humane
precaution.—New York Sun.

Newberry, the ecologist, says that

cool veins uf Ch’o. These boulders, in
order to be hi tho ccal vein, nn st have
been deposited there while ft was fann­
ing. Hu'w could these inuneious for­
eign recks get ln;o a roil vein being
formed of vegetable decoy.'
The only means by which foreign
toulders an 1 other rock are transported
Is In deep water by ice or joute of trees,
nnd to have this deep water an 1 tho
forming .coal vein at the same time is
nn impcmsibillty. To form coal front
vegetation th&gt;. r &gt; must be dry or swamp
land afterward cover®! with water,
and with those conditions tho boulders
are found on the top of tho cottl veins.
But, as Newberry says, there arc nu­
merous ca-es where those rocks that
have come long jo irneyu are found im­
bedded in the coal v.-lu,^completely 1mmers sd in coal.
Remember that these coal-imbedded
boulders are not otherwise fojnd in tho
vicinity of the coal veins, but are gen­
erally noognized as belonging to rock
formations that lie hundreds of miles
away to the northward. Now let sumo
advocate give, if ho ran, any reasonable
means by which these lo.-eign atom s got
to the forming coal-beds while vegeta­
tion was giowing.
Evidently this proves that the coal
veins wore la d down In deep water,
where coal-producing vegetation can­
not grow, and indicates that oi.r coal­
beds came from sources similar to those
from whence are the other formations
of the earth.
Prof. Vail says that a boulder weigh­
ing 20.) pounds, found in the middle of
a coal seam, is now in the museum at
Columbus, Ohio, and is an .Irrefutable
evidence that the coal vein from which
It was taken finished its formation after
the boulder fell into it and that foreign
boulders thus imbedded ore often found
at Nelsonville and Carbondale, Ohio.
Numerous instances are known where
olay seams no thicker than a knife blade
are fo tnd parting two coal veins, no
vegetable fossils fo the clay and a foot
or more of coal above this clay seam.
How could the vegetation exist to form
these heavy coal veins above that thin
as paper clay seam?
Is it not far more reasonable that the
coal fell from above into the sea, and
after a portion of it settled, a great
river, at its flood, muddled tho water,
tho clay quickly setting on the first
coal vein and after that the carbon that
atill floated in the waters settled on tho
alny ocean?
Carbon forms in the sfove-plpe or tho
chimney from smoke, because tne oxy­
gen of tho atmosphere does Mt reach
the smoke in sufficient quantity to com­
bine with it and form carbonic acid gas.
But tho greater portion of tho carbon
which is carried up in the form of
smoke forma the gas by uniting with
oxygen. This carbonic acid gus is the
food of plant life, and although it Is not
combustible—will not burn—it fur­
nishes tho carbon of vegetable growth,
and is the substance of vegetation
■which gives its fuel properties'.
Carbonic acid gas also unites with, ot
dissolves in water, in the proportion of
2 volumes uf gas to 3 of water. There
are, therefore, two ways by which car­
bon in the atmosphere may return to
solids of the earth; one through veg tation aud one through water. Chemists
tell us that there is now about one part
of carbonic acid gas in our atmosphere
to 25,000 parts of other matter.
The smoko that constantly rises from
all kinds of fires, including volcanoes,
saturates our atmosphere with carbon,
and we know that a portion of this cornea
back to solid earth through vegetation.
But docs any part of it change back to '
carbon tai an y other way?
To utterly overthrow the accepted
theory of the origin of coal, all that is &gt;
ne-iesaary is to aho«( how tho carbon
could have reached nnd remained for u
time suspended in our atmosphere with­

The National Convention of the Peo­
ple’s Independent parly met in tbe Col­
iseum *Building in tills city. The hall
In which the convention was held seats
about twelve thousand persons and in
appearance resembles the Minneapolis
hall. As the hall began to fill a notable
feature was the presence of many
. women delegates. Chairman 1’aubeneck, of the National Executive Commit­
tee, came upon the platform shortly
after 10:30 and entered Into consulta-

tion with other loaders. By 11 o'clock
the part of the hall allotted to delegates
was fairly well filled, most of the 1,776
delegates being present, but In much
confusion. The general remark was
that it was a fine-looking body of mon.
Strong and striking physiognomies were
numerous.
Chaplain Diffenbacher, of the Nebras­
ka house of representatives, a somewhat
notable cbarac’.or in the independent
politics of Nebraska, took a seat uj&gt;on
the' platform about 11 o’elo k, and so did
George P. Bemis, mayor of Omaha.
The newspaper men were well provided
for on the right an 1 left of the speakers’
stand.
Chairman Taubeneck called the con­
vention to order at 11:05-o'clock. It re­
quired ten n inutes to pro luce order and
Sergeant-at-arms L. A. Beitzer’s loud
voice was necessary to make Mr. TaubeDoek's gavel effective. The Chairman
at once Introduced Chap'aln Diffenbacher. who made the opening prayer in
a strong, full voice, readily heard in all
parts of the hall.
When the Chairman introduced Mayor
Bemis, of Omaha, to welcome the dcleffates. h? was received wish hearty
cheers, and his speech was fiequrntly
interrupted by loud applause.
At the
conclusion of the address the conven­
tion gave three tremendous cheers f r
the Mayor.
B«n 8. Terrill, ot Texas, wus intro­
duced to reply on behalf ot the c.»iiventlon to Mayor Bemis' address of wel­
come.
He did so in a vigorous and
complimentary speech, which was re­
ceived with npplauw at frequent inter­
vals. Quobng a statement of Mayor
Bo mi s thut.dear gold meant cheap men,
Terrill was greeted with cheers, wh(&gt; h
wore only exceeded when he pledged the
. South to vote the People’s party ticket,
no matter who th) nominee, as long as
he stood squarely upon the St. Louis
platform. His declaration that the now
party had wiped out sectional sin rnd
united the blue and the gray as no other
party could was met with applause which
shook the budding. As an ex-Confederato soldier he declared that the new
party mado him feel as much at home iu
Nebraska os in Texas.
*
Chairman Taubeneck then introduced
as Temporary Chairman C. H. Ellington,
of Georgia, and surrendered the gavel
to him. J. W. Hayes, of New Jersey,
was made Temporary Secretary, with
0. P. Carpenter, of Minneso a, and
Jesse Poundstone, of California, assist­
ants. Mr. Ellington proceeded to de­
liver a heavy address which w_s well
received.
When the Temporary Chairman re­
ferred to the dea’h of the late President
Polk, of the Alllantc, ho did so feel­
ingly. and a somewhat dramatic scene
occurred, his remarks being intenupted
by bringing upon the stage a large por­
trait ot Polk.
x
At the conclusion of the speech “Sister
Todd,” of Illinois, was Introduced and
received with loud cheers. She came
forward and presented to the convention
a gavel carved by Mrs. Ben S. Terrell
from the, wood of a tree planted by
Washington and grown at Mount Ver­
non. Sister Toda delivered a ringing
address In a clear, strong voice that
penetrated all parts of the hull and
aroused the great audience to a high
pitch of enthusiasm. Clad in black,
wearing a black hat and gesticulating
vigorously with the black gavel, the
gentle orator presented a striking figure.
Tho Credentials Committee was di­
rected to meet, and a committee of one
from each State on permanent organiza­
tion and one from each State on rules
was appointed. Tho convention at once
proceeded to call of tho States for com­
mittees. At one o'clock tho convention
took a recess for one hour.
When the convention reassembled tho
committees were not ready to report,
and tho delegates were entertained by
■several quartette clube, who sang selec­
tions bearing on the political Issues as
understood by the People’s party. Some
of tho songs were very pertinent and
had catching refrains. One proclaimed
“that they were .very lucky because they
had the tariff yet," a statement which
called forth loud applause. During tho
lull Chairman Ellington read an Inter­
esting message of good cheer from ;
Washington, signed by the sympalhlxers
of the People's party In Congress.
As the committees were still at work
the convention settled down Into a goodnatured U’aas meeting and was ad­
dressed by Ignatius Donnelly and
others. Mr. Do. nelly made the most
Intel eat!ng speech of the afternoon. Ho
and scored several goo J points. He was

MAMMOTH MEETING OF CHRIS­
TIAN ENDEAVORS.

In ordtr to term a 25 to f.o foot coal
vein from vegetation would require 2t0
to 400 feet of fallen vegetable decay.
The vegetation from which geologists
declare coal Is derived grows In swamps
where there is an abundance of water,
but not sufficient to cover the vegetation
entirely while it is growing. There ore,
in order to produce even 210 feet ot the
coal-forming vegetation, the surface of
the swamp water would necessarily have
to gradually rise nt least fifty feet, as
the vegetable decay would accumulate,
otherwise the vegetation would scon be
high and dry above the water, where
It would not grow.
It would not do to say that this vege­
tation began to a row and accumulate
nt the bottom of a lake fifty feet deep,
gradually filling up the lake with the
I vegetable remains, for that class of
i vegetation will not grow in such a lake.
I Gt ologists say that hard coal is formed
I of soft coal by vulcEhic heat and great
pressure. In this they are prot.ably
correct. Then the hard coni is formed
"by the heat and pressure driving off the
water and the lighter oils of the soft
coal. In that case all tbe dirt, the in­
combustibles, the gravel, rock, pyrites
of iron, etc., would remain in the h ird
coal and we would have a greater pro­
portion to the ton of „th!a dirt in ban!
than in soft coal. But ever/ person who
has used hard and soft coal know a that
the proportion of ash or dirt in the hard
coal is not more titan one-half what it is
la soft coal.
This is positive evidence, Irrefutable,
that instead of coal being formed of
vegetation in a swamp it fell as cosmioal dust. The heavier forms would
settle quickly in deep water, and there­
fore we have the hard coal with but lit­
tle ash or dirt in it, The lighter forms
would Boat longer, settle slower, reach
the shallow waters near the shore, and
contain more dirt than the anthracite or
hard coal.
When our coal beds were deposited
the Mississippi Valley was the shallow
Dart of the seas, os the south end of
Baffin's Bay now Is the shallow part
and near the shores, and the reglcn of
New York and Pennsylvania hard coal
was In the deep sea.
On this line of
thought nothing but harmony is found,
while oh the vegetable line of coal form­
ations all is chads.
Almost universally fire-clay Is found
under beds of coal, and Instead of It benig a vegetable producing clay, it, us a
rule, fell on vegetable growth.’smothering and killing it In northern latitudes
this clay is found under great masses
of carbonite, tbe two deposits being in
and covered with great masses of solid
Slacier Ice, with not a j.article of evience that any-vegetatlon evet existed
there. There are no abraded mountains
near these deposits from which they
could have been curried by water.
Prof. Vail says that this fire-clay
under a carbonite deposit is found be­
tween massive beds of glacier ice, and
being a geologist he deciares that his
brother geologists are utterly con­
founded as to where this clay and car­
bon cam-? from. The only reasonable
Inference b» that this fire-clay and car­
bon fell as the snow and was deposited
on the glacier ice. This will be further
dlscupsid hereafter.

About six weeks ago. In anticipation
of the coining conflict between the Car­
negie Interests and the workmen, a stout
board fence twelve feet high was built
upon a foundation of slag three feet high,
completely surrounding the steel works.
This fence la three miles long. On tho
top are strung three strands of barbed
wire, so connected that a current of
electricity may be sent through them
from the electric plant by the simple
turning ot a switch in the offlce. Port­
holes four Inches In diameter have been
bored along this fence at tho height of a
man's eye. Trenches have been dug
over all parts of the works to various
points along the fence where hydranfs
are stationed. Connections have been
mode so that either cold or boiling hot
water can be sent through these pipes
to the hydrants.
An additional fence has been built
about the office, and a bridge forty feet
high has been strung across the tracks,
connecting the office with a building In­
side the works. A search light has been

placed upon this bridge, and alsa a
sentry box.
Ou tbe river front the Carnegie steel
launch Annie has been fitted out as a
warship, with swivel guns, and several
flatboats have been equipped with small

During the recent high water,when
the flcoding of the bottom lands along
the Missouri was the topic ot conver­

tlemen were ceaUcl around a com­
fortable tire in an Independence offlce
telling stories of flood and fish. One,
a noted Jurist, told this which ho
claims is “gospel fact:”
'
It was during the flood of 1881,
when so much of the bottom lands
were “out of sight," and a lean and
lank Kansan, uie sole proprietor of
an eighty-acre plat, stood on a mound
surveying the great lake covering his
real estate possessions, and disgusted,
swore to sell, trade or give away every
rod of that “dod-blasted botlbm."
The opportunity soon came. Pass­
ing along the highway this Kansan
met another leading a calf. It was
not much of a calf, but still the
Kansan, who must have been a Yan­
kee, smelt a trade. To the owner of
the calf he advanced and the follow­
ing dialogue toak place:
“Stranger, want er trade?”
"Wall, I might. What yer got?”
“Well, I’ll give yer a clean deed to
fortjt acres of Kaw bottom land fer
that ar calf.”
“I'll take yer up.”
The papers were drawn up and the
culf was delivered, and soon after the
Kansan told the story to a friend
with this remark: “When I Parned

The man of character is always the
man of iron nerve; be may not be a
great statesman or politician; he may
be humble in his associations and his
aspirations; but with all these excep­
tions, if he has character his heart is
right, his integrity is unshaken. He
looks on truth with a clear vision,
acting in accordance with Its glorious
dictates; hfi does not fear nor shun
the face ot his fellow-man, for his
heart is white with integrity, and he
looks humbly and trustingly up to
the source of truth, and his fellowbeingfi, In a lower sense, look up to
him because he .is trustworthy, and,
in short, has character—good and

ONE WAY TO SUCCEED.

A Chicago fl rm publishes advice to
young men as follows:
Be certain that your employers are­
al their posts before you get there in
the morning, and see that they are
when you leave in the evening. They
need watching. If your employers
happen to lie temporarily absent, go
out and enjoy yourselves during their
absence. You have rights as well as
they. If you should accidentally get
down'to business ahead of your em­
ployers, read the papers or amuse
yourself In .some manner until they
arrive, and let others prepare for the
business of the day, If you do not
feel well, stay at home; your work will
t»e attended to by your fellow em­
ployes. Your employers are rich and
won't mind your alscnce. If your
wife doesn t feel well, or baby has the
collie, stay at home. If your wire and
baby don’t appreciate your sacrifice
your empfoyers will. If you have any
private business to look after, don't
transact It before or after business
hours, but slip out during the day and
attend to it. In the rush of business
you will not i&gt;e missed. In selling
goods resort to lying when the inter­
est of your employers requires it.
They know you would not juggle with
the truth except In their interest.
Remind your employers ^constantly
that though others nominally get the
credit for certain profitable transac­
tions. the -rodlt really belongs to you.
Your employers are dull and would
not recognize your ability should you
fail to keep it constantly l»efore the
minds. Always openly or covertly be­
little your fellow employes and fellow­
men; employers and employes will
alike appreciate this trait in your
character.. Always remember that
I&gt;ersons occupying the highest posi­
tions in tbe house "got there” by ac­
cident or favoritism, and flatter your­
self that you are the possessor of
greater merit and ability Than any of
them. If you should observe any­
thing amfss that ought to be reported
to headquarters, pay no attention to
It; It’s none of your business, and you
were not hired for such purposes.
Change your employers about once a
year. You may not accumulate
m&lt;x«ey by such changes, but you will
acquire a reputation for Independence
that? Id your judgment, Is priceless.
If you have anything unfinished at 6
p. m., drop It. Be prompt In going
home. This I-ns Important as being
tardy in the moi :Ing.—Tradesman.

able kind of a chap, and as be set there on. bis
coffin, with his eyes wide open—be wouldn’t
let 'em t&gt;c bandaged—lookin’ right at un, I'm
teliin’ you there wasn’t a man of us wouldn’t
have banded In bls resignation on tbe spot It
he’d bad the chance. 1 don’t know what the
others was thinkin’ about, but I bad my mind
made up In about a quarter of a minute that
my bullet shouldn’t go into him, duty or no
duty, and I aimed so that I’d mlar±lin about
six Inches. I could dd it easy enough, and no­
body be any wiser, and I’d feel a good deal
easier afterwards.
“Well, the command come soon enough for
us and for the poor feller on bls box, and when
the twenty rifles blazed forth right into the
staring eyes of the deserter, not more than
ten paces off, he give a wild screech, Jumped
straight up and fell back deader’n a mackerel,
without so much as a kick.
«
“It was a terrible feeling I took away with
me. as I marched bock to camp and I guess the
real of tbe squad were In the same fix, for ncbody said a word about it and sort of shivered
when anytjody else did. I kept my own’secret
and found some comfort in that, but not for
long, because when the squad that buried him
came back they reported that there wasn’t a
mark on tbe body. Every bullet had missed
him and every man had done Just what I bad
'done, aimed high or to one aide or tho other.
But tbe man was as dead as if our bullets had
gone through him, and I gueas one of us bad
just as much to do with killing him as the
other did.
Tbe officers didn’t Investigate, for lhe dig­
nity of military law waa maintained and tbe
lesson in discipline taught, Just tbe same.

Richest Man in Rome.
The Pope’s private fortune makes him the
richest man In Rome, though bls wealth has
shrunk very greatly from the fortT-flve mil­
lion lire left by Plus IX. Much of the shrink­
age has been due to unfortunate investments
in building bonds and in corporation stocks—
Investments made for tbe purpose of leceiving
a higher rate of interest than that paid by the
Rothschilds. Tbe pope gives bls direct per­
sonal attention to financial transactions such

“What’s the matter with her,
now?"
“Oh," said the young girl, “I sup­

“Nerves! nerves’" cried the Doctor,
seemingly in an alarming rage. “My

no-one can doubt; still, the lesson he
would have taught was a sensible one.
When we allow ourselves mo ads of
ill-temper or weakness because we
arc “nervous," then we need to re­
member that the soul Is stronger than
the boiy. We need to look abnyt us
and see whether or not we can make
some one else happy.

became a joy-giver, “if one is really
disposed to bring people good cheer
it is wonderful to see what frequent
opportunities there are. One might

brought th'a Con­

being largely in the

Well, what ore the facta?
Why, the facta aro that tho lawyer Is
just as dominant in this Congress as
ever. There ore a few more farmers
than usual, but they have no more in­
fluence on legislation than they had in
tho Fifty-first Congress, aud their voices
aro scarcely hear I. As John Davis,
one of the ablest farmers in Congress,
said to me yesterday: "We scarcely
expect to got any of our important
measures through U»tss3ssioa; but shall
oe satisfied with an educational cam­
paign. We aro going to make some
speeches that will influence votes here­
after. "
Another Cong essman-farmer from
the West permits me to publish his
plaint thus:

Thia Is "the Formers’ Congress," yet
there ar.- only twenty-three members
who really get their living by agricult­
ure. and there nro 270 lawyers, about
three-fourths of the whole, aud twenty
more belong to one of the so-called
learned professions. In the Tenno-. e •
delegation both Senators and all "ten
Congressmen are lawyers. Both Sen­
ators from Virginia are lawyers, and all
the ten Congressmen, except a parson
and an editor. Both Senators from Texas
are also lawyers, and t n out of the
eleven Congressmen, the odd man being
“Parson Long." who indicates In the
Congressional Directory that he is vir­
tually and sentimentally a Presbyterian

Clover, another of the five'men who

The steamer was returning from Lake’
View Park, where a spectacular produc­
tion of tho “Last Days of Pompeii" had
been given. Tho crew numbered five.
Tho evening hal been pleasant, but
during tho latter part of tbe perform­
ance there were mutterings of a storm.
It burst suddenly with great violence
when the Loat had gotten out in the
middle of the river. Edward Loesch,
the captain, was in tho pilot house when
the storm struck. He attempted to head
the boat for the shore, and us he did so
the wind caught it and capsized It.
Most of those who were on deck rushed
to.t£e upper side, and were in this way
saved. Capt. Loesch helped all he tould
to put on life preservers. Ho pulled uptwo women who were struggling out of
the cabin.
When tho beat bogan to sink a whis­
tle was sent up for aid, but in a few mo­
ments tho boilers wro under water.
Word was rent to the police station an 1
Mayor Warner ordered out at once all
the policemen, the patrol wagon, and
ambulance. The Folsom lay about 10«l
j aids from shore in sixteen feet of
water, and was alxiut two-thirda under
water careened over on tho slue. There
was nut an available tug in the city.
The Longfellow, which was struggling
near the Folsom, made a landing as
soon as she could, and hurried her pas­
sengers ashore. It was tho intention to
go to the aid of tho sinking twat, but
the wheel got caught in some manner,
and groat difficulty was experienced ^n
getting away.
Meanwhile numerous small boats were
put out, although the rough condition of
the river rendered the mission very per­
ilous. Rain fell in torrents, and the
wind blow in fierce gusts. All of tho
steamer above water was covered by
half-drowned passengers clinging to the
upper dock, one side of which showed
just above tho surface.
When the first relief boat appeared,
men and women leaped from the steamer
and swum to tbe bont. So many at­
tempted this that they had to be driven
back with oars in order to keep the little
boats from being swamped. Four per­
sons wore brought oft in tho first boat,
an 1 after this the work of rescue went
on rapidly. Mayor Warner had ordered
out a number of hacks, and as fast as
the people were brought off the steamer
they were placed in hacks and drhen to
places of shelter. Tho river is being
dragged for the bodies of those that are
still missing.

THE OUTFLOW OF GOLD.
The postal dapartinent reports that
money orders are purchased at the
rate ot *2,000,000 a month for trans­
mission to foreign countries. This
money represents the contributions
which are made by citizens of foreign
descent, or by foreigners residing in
this country, to the sup^brt of their
relativesand families residing abroad.
These postal orders are for money in
small amounts, not over *50 in any
one order, and they stand for the
money sent abroad for the working
classes, and have nd connection with
the commercial transactionsof foreign
countries nor With the money carried
abroad by tourists.
It Is currently estimated that Amer­
ican tourists in foreign countries
spend abroad not less than 8100,000,000
«year, while the amount in postal
orders at tbe rate of *2,000,000 a month
or *2-4,(KM),000 a year, will raise the out­
flow of money, gold of course, from
this country, leaving out of the queaall commercial transactions, to not
less than *125,000,000. Of course some
gold, but no great amount, comes
back in the hands of the foreigners
touring In the United States, but these
arc comparatively few. Some also
comes back in the. bands of foreign
Immigrants, but-these are chiefly poor
and come to our shores not to bring
money, hut to And work. Under these
circumstances there Is a large annual
outflow of our gold which never conies
lack, a drain which only the richest
country lu the world could endure for
any length of time.
But our gold mines are being worked
out surely and by no means slowly.
The continuance of this drain will in
no great length of time become greater
than the production from the mines
in the'union. The trade relations
with all countries as they now exist
have created a permanent balance of
trade against the United States. We
buy more than our cotton, grain, pe­
troleum and stares will pay for and
the balance must be paid in gold. For
this reason it is plainly to the inter­
ests of all countries which have no
gold mines to maintain a gold stand­
ard as against the United States, and
*o require payment from our people In
gold. This is the only way any of the
European nations, with the exception
of Russia with its Asiatic mines and
England with its Australian and Af­
rican colonies, cafn get an ounce of the

precious stuff. Bu t with the balanc
of trade and the outflow through our
tourists and through immigrants send­
ing money to friends in the mother
countries, all against us, in connection
with the declining productiveness of
our mines, the day will come when we
will have no longer a gold supply.
We will then lie forced to change
the entire course of our trade and buy
only to the extent that our products
will pay, or we will have to fall back
on silver, paying it out only at such
rates as may i»e dictated by the for­
eign gold-holding nations. Just two
centuries ago Sir Isaac Newton, who
was master of the British mint, ar­
gued that England possessing no gold
mines and then having no colonies
rich In the precious metals, aud hav­
ing no means of securing gold save
from foreign countries in the way of
trade, suggested a depreciation by the
government of the value of silver so
as to decrease Its paying power as
compared with gold. The govern­
ment, seeing the wisdom of the
scheme, adopted it. In this way tbe
debtors and customers of England in
gole-produclng countries, finding that
their gold was given an increased pur­
chasing power, fell Into the trap and
remained in it until England became
the richest country- in the world, as it
is to-day, tn proportion to its populatlon. Other nations of Europe imi­
tated England and so were able to'
hoard considerable amounts of gold,
but England is easily the world s head­
quarters of gold.
The United States, having enjoyed
forty years of continuous and abun
dant gold production, has been able to।
adopt and follow out the programme
of a prodigal spendthrift and yet
maintain itself. But, as in every such
case..the end must come. When our
gold (production fall* below the ag­
gregate of our gold outflow, then must
come a total and absolute revolution
in our entire commercial and financial
policy. If the necessary provision be
delayed until the empty pocket period
Imj reached, then our national finances
will be at the mercy of all the great
bonkers and money brokers of Europe—Tradesman.

A .-•■'t'-m of gravel and macadamized
roads, built by competent men, is
needed in every Stat* in the Union.
The legislatures of a number of
States have, shown a disposition to
aid the advocates of good highways.
Soon we may expect the passage of
bills 'providing for tbe inauguration
of the work. But before the move­
ment receive* the hearty support of
the farmers they’ must be convinced
that the actual distance from farm to
market Is not to be measured by miles

but by the character of the roads, and
that poor dirt roads are a tax exceed­
ing in volume every other burden
borne by the rural population. At
the same time a crusade against nar­
row tires should begin. Na matter
how well made a road may be, the
tires now in general use would ruin
it In a month. In France, where road
building has attained a high state of
perfection, no tire less than* six Inches
In width is countenanced.
A tire
twelve inches wide—and such tires are
nWt uncommon In Europe—enables
ohe horse to do the work of two, aud
at the same time is a perfect road­
maker. It crushes the macadam Into
a compact mass and solidifies a gravel
roadbed. The cost of building a mile
of macadamized road is said to be
from 83,500 to 85,000 and of gravel
road from 81,500 to 82,000 according
•to grade.
Either of these amounts
could be saved In one year In actual
dollars and cents, to say nothing of
the appreciation in value of farm
lands, which is estimated at 20 per
cent.—W^est Coast Trade.
Inventions That Paid.
The popular “return ball" yielded
the patentee an income of 850,000 a
year. The “Dancing Jim Crow" toy
yas worth 875,000 a year to ils inven­
tor: the Spring window shade, the
stylographic pen, the marking pen
and rubber stamps, cacti 8100,000 a
year. The common needle threader
was worth 810,000 a year to the man
who first thought of it. The rubber
tip on lead pencils, the gummed news­
paper wrapper, the machine for mak­
ing type, made rich men of their or­
iginators.
Silverton sold his patent for copper
tips to childrens’ shoes for 867,000..
Waterman’s process for tempering

a year, and left at his death nearly

Patronize Home Industries.
Next to the deep abiding interest
which every man has in his individual
possessions is the pride and satisfac­
tion he feels in seeing his town pros­
per and its people happy. Too many
men, selfish in the extreme, are en­
vious of their neighbor’s prosperity,
and hence we see many who patronize
foreign establishments for everything
they need rather than buy at home
and help their own town. Many ar­
ticles that are bought elsewhere are
no better or cheaper than those of­
fered by home dealers. This short­
sightedness does not permit them to
see that their Interests are Identified
with those with whom they are con­
tinually coming in. contact In the
everyday affairs of life.
Now it seems to us that a man in
the community in which he lives can
get anything good enough for himself
without sending away to other places
for It. Every resident should take
sufficient interest in the town In
which he lives td do bis trading and
thus keep the money in circulation in
his own community. In short, if you
want to kill a town and invite hard
times to your door import everything
you can and export as little as posalflle. Patronize your home business
men and mechanics, and see what a
difference.lt will make.—West tk&gt;ast
Trade.

Overcrowded New York.
We are accustomed to think of Lon­
don as the worst crowded city In the
world, but it is said that the worst
overcrowded block of Whitechapel

space dnes not contain more than half
as many people as some blocks of Eastside New York tenements in the reglon of Third-st. and avenues B and
C. -According to the census thr block
funded by Second and Third-sU.
and avenues B and C contains over 3,■500 people, enough to. populate a very
respectable country village or a boom­
ing young western city. At one time
last summer there were five children
in hospitals who had fallen uff fire es­
capes in this block. This was ex­
plained by the fact that the popula­

The most horrifying event which
we have been called upon to chronicle
or that has happened in Nash’iile In
many years occurred Tuesday after­
noon at about two o’clock, at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. John Hitt, on the
south side. Mrs. Hitt had been doing
a washing for the family and as the
weather was su very hot and sultry
she bad taken it out in tbe yard in
tbe shade of the house. After she
had finished the wash she took the
boiler of water which she had on the
stove In the house and brought it- out
to empty, but before throwing tbe
water our Sne set it down on the
ground and left it to attend to some­
thing else. She had only left it a few
seconds before she was startled by a
scream, ancFturning around she was
horrified to see her little child, who
had been playing arouwd the yard,
sitting In the boiling water: she rushed
to the little one’s aid and lifted It from
its terrible bath. The doctors were
Immediately summoned and did all in
their power to relieve tbe little one of
its terrible suffering, but little could
be done, tfs Its body was .terribly
scalded and the only parts of Its per*
son that did not receive burns was Its
face, feet and hands, but the rest of
its body was terribly burned and the
skin and portions* of flesh dropped off
when Its clothes were removed. The
child lingered along in Intense agony
and pain until late that evening when
Its life passed out. The parents artnearly crazy over the affair. The
funeral occurred yesterday afternoon
at the home of the parents, and the
remains interred In the Nashville
cemetery.

minutes after eight o’clock, Miss Hor­

with an impressive ceremony amid the
floral decorations the Judies of the
church had so tastefully arranged.
'I'he bride was prettily dressed in
Goria silk, on train, with natural
flowers, and i(K«ked very pretty. Fol­

BICYCLE NOTES.

Nearly al) of Nashville’s wheelmen
were out on parade Saturday evening.
RememlMtr the Nashville cycling
club meeting UtTns News office next
Thursday evening.
■Three of our Nashville wheelmen
kicked over to Thornapple lake Sun­
day on their “bikes."
Byron Barnum and Chas. Walrath
were at Sobby lake Monday night,
going up and back on their wheels.
C. W, Francis, of the Lake Odessa
Wave, was in the village Monday eve­
ning. He made the trip down on his
bicycle In one hour and twenty min­
utes.
Ed. F. Spooner, at Chicago, Satur­
day, finished a twenty-four hours’ ride
on a bicycle. He rode 375 miles less
155 yards. This establishes a new
world’s record for the time.* Think of
it, 375 miles in 24 hours!
«
In connection with the great meet­
ing of bicycliste In Washington, there
Is a marked increase of Interest
among members of Congress in the
matter of good roads. The great
•meet" will have a marked influence
in aiding the project of having a “road
exhibit” In connection with the Co­
lumbian exposition.
The following sage advice Is fur­
nished by an exchange: “Never try
to dodge a wheel uor make any quick
moves to get out of Its way. If pedes­
trians would always remember this
they need never be harmed or annoyed
by a wheel. These movements are
usually made with the view of accom­
modating tbe rider. But a wheelman
gets over lhe ground so fast that he
itegins to consider how he will pass
you while you are yet in the distance;
so that if you step aside quickly or
dodge just as he is upon you, you are
quite apt to interfere with his calcu­
lations to his discomfort and more or
less to your annoyance. Never give
up the whole walk nor put yourself
out especially
specially fora wheel; it makes the
rider feel too much as if he was an in­
truder. At the very most don’t put
yourself out mure than you might be
expected to for any person on foot .
Fear no danger. It is the rider’s place
to seo that he does not harm you, and
he would l«e just us liable forinjury as
a teamster would be. Never regard
the ring of a tie)! as a command to get
out of the way.
The pedestrian's
right to the. walk is superior to the
wheelman’s; so when you hear a bell
don’t turn out, but keep straight
ahead. Th«-object of the b&lt;»ll is to let
you know that a wheel is txuning,
that you may not oeedlwwly step into
the way.’

To organize an Irresponsible body

General Adlai E. Stevenson has orrlved at Buzzard's Bay, says a dispatch.
He had a hard trip from New York, and
was tired and travel-stained when the
Old Colony train from Boston pulled in­
to the little junction station. With the
General was W. G. Ewing, of Chicago,
the ex-Unlied States District Attorney,
and a New York newspaper represent*tlve. Grover Cleveland drove over from
Gray Gables villa to meet them, and
sto &gt;&lt;.’ chatting with a friend when the
train came to a stop. General Steven­
son slopped out and looked about with a
dejected air as If disappointed at some­
thing. but this was only for an instant.
Grover had caught a glimpse of Adlai'a
tail form in the crowd down the plat­
form, and. hurrying town, grasped the
Illinoisan's arm, saying: "How are
you, Generalf" The General turned
and gave tbe cx-President a quick
glance, and, thrusting out hls long arm,
met Grover's, and a hearty clasp en­
sued as the General said:
am^lad
to see you. *
Mr. Ewing was quietly Introduced,
and the party stood several moments
waiting tor the train to pull out. Mr.
Cleveland waa recognised by several,
but none seemed to know the tall man
with tbo tired look and the air of a
Westerner.
Mr. Cleveland took his
gue-ts to hls private carriage oat to the
highway and, after seating the General,
sprang up beside him, Mr. Ewing find­
ing a seat with th? coachman, and they
were driven rapidly down tbe village
street to Gray Gables.

den and listen to
the proceedings from there. Among the
people on the platform were ex,-Gov.
Luce, Mayor Linton, Urr J., Ellen
Foster, of Iowa, and many others.
’It waa some time after two o’clock
when the convention was called to or­
der. After considerable delay, which
was caused by the seating of delegate**,
Secretary W. R. Bates, of the State
Central * Committee, called the conven­
tion to order. After praver, the call of
the convention was read by Secretary
Bates, who alto 'road a telegram from
Senator McMillan, who is in Washing­
ton, stating his iaabillty to l e present,
and counseling harmony in the work of
the convention. Mayor Linton delivered
an address of welcome, in which he ten­
dered to the delegates the freedom of
Saginaw.
When he had closed, the Hon. Mark
8. Brewer, the cx-Congressman from
the Sixth District of Michigan, was in­
troduced as temporary Chairman, and
was received with great applause as he
assumed the chair. After thanking tho
convention for the honor conferred
on him, he addressed tbe convention
briefly.
"The duty and responsibility that de­
volves upon us," he said. "Is great—
great, my Republican friends, because
the men named hero as our candidates
for the various position* In our State
will, November next, be chosen by the
people of Michigan to fill the several
j,laces for which they have been named.
We come here, not to criticise, but we
tome to harmonize our ideas as to how
we can best subserve the interests of
our party, knowing full Well that, a** we
sub: erve tho Interests of our party, we
subserve tho interests of tbe people o!
cur beloved State."
At mention of the names of the Re­
publican leaders the delegates showed
much enthusiasm, but when at different
times Blain* and Harrison were spoken
of the convention arose en masse and
thundered out Its applause. The speaker
revlewed.at some length tho past of the
Republican party, and declared it was
the party that ev&lt; r had and ever would
favor such legislation as would protect
and preserve th-* financial integrity
of the Union itself, and which to-day
demands such legislation as will
place the money of- our countrygold, silver and paper—on a par, and
maintain It all of equal value. The
party, he declared, stands for honest
money and the principle of protection
to American industry and American
labor, against the unequal competition
from the products of the cheap labor of
foreign lands. He closed with a plea
to the delegates to work as earnestly
for the success of' the nominees of the
convention next November as he bad in
presenting their cause.
A. W. Smith, of Lenawee County,
was elected temporary secretary. The
secretaries of tho Congressional district
caucuses then reported the names of
the different officers selected by them.
Mrs. J. Ellen Foster, tbe well-known

Brewer. The delegates and spectators
cheered enthusiastically as she stepped
forward to speak. She made a strong
plea for the organization of the women
into Republican clubs, and declared that
•the time had cpme when the things
affecting women were pushing them for­
ward so that It was necessary they
should take an active part in the gov­
ernment of affaire.
On the understanding that nothing
but the receiving of the reports of com­
mittees an 1 the making of nominating
speeches would be done, the convention
took a rrcesa until 8 o'clock in the
even'ng.
At the appointed hour the convention
reassembled. As none of the commit­
tee were ready to report, the convention
adjourned until 9 o'clock the following
morning.
Fwrond Day.

It was nearly 10 o'clock on the morn­
ing of the second day before the con­
vention got down to work. The tem­
porary organization waa then made per­
manent.
Chairman Fitzgerald of the Commit­
tee on Resolutions then mounted the
platform and read the following resolu­
tion, which was adopted by the conven­
tion rising in alienee:
'Resolved. That we express our sin­
cere sympathy with that eminent Re­
publican and statesman, James G.
Blaine, in the tx-ruavement ho has re­
cently suffered in the loss of hls eon,
and express a wish that his life in the
future may be as full of honor and use­
fulness as in the pa«t."
Nominating speeches being in order.

ination for Governor John T. -Rich, of

Meantime, members of the reception
committee had driven to the home of Mr.
Whitney, where they took Mr. Cleve­
land In’o a carriage, which was drive*
to tho Manhattan Club-house. The Na­
tional and notification committees wore
in watting there. They were joined by
other meml ore of the reception com­
mittee who had escorted Mr. Stevenson
from tho Hoffman House.
The three
committees, with the nominees, entered
carrflkeB and were driven to Madison
Square Garden, where their arrival was
marked by an elaborate display of fire­
works. The party alighted and entered
the hall amid cheers.
As tho candidates passed inside more
than 15,000 people were awaiting them.
The admission tickets were confined to
tho stage and boxes, and tho vast am­
phitheater was occupied by tho general
public. In many respects tho occasion
was typical of a national convention.
There wore tho san^e decorations, the
same ftay streamers of variegated colors,
and from the topmost gallery surround­
ing tho Inclosure were suspended thc
coats of arms of tbe various States and
Territories of the Union. While await­
ing the arrival of the party the audb nee
had passed the time cheering alternately
for Cleveland, Stevenson, and Governor;

motion
in the rear of thc stage
and
a moment later
the com­
mittee entered,
headed by Perry
Belmont, who walked arm In arm
with Mr. Stevenson. Instantly there
was a cry of “Here they come," and,
as the crowd recognised the Vice Presi­

trembled with Democratic cheers. Tho

One of the most appalling thunder
storms which ever visited this section
of the state came upon us Wednesday
evening at about six o’clock. The
clouds bad been gathering all after­
noon and the rain l»egan falling qui­
etly early in the evening; there *as no
wind with the storm, the rain falling
softly, coming straight down. About
half an hour later the sky, which had
begun to look ominous, 1&gt;egnn to shoot
forth tongues of flame and in a few
moments the air was fairly ablaze with
lightning, flash following flash with
such startling rapidity that the inter­
missions were barely perceptible, while
the peals of thunder were Incessant.
The rain fell in torrents, until the
streets were like rivers, and only the
most urgent business tailed forth any­
one from shelter. The stiorm luted
over an hour, and an enormous quan­
tity of water fell. No damage was
done In the village, but reports of
great destruction are coming in from
the surrounding country. We give
below the damage as far as we have
been able to ascertain.
Reuben Smith, living a short dis­
tance south of town, lost a valuable
horse, struck by lightning, while in a
liasture. Insured id Barry &amp; Eaton.
The large basement l&gt;arn of John
Tanner, about six miles this side of
Cliarh.tb.-. WU struck by lightning
and burned, with the crop from nearly
twenty acres of wheat and about
twenty tons of hay. Five men wereJn
the barn when it was struck, two of
whom were knocked down, but none
were . Injured and they immediately
set to" work fighting the Are, unsuc­
cessfully. They succeeded, however, in
saving all the stock and nearly all the
contents of the barn, except the hay
and grain. Loss about $1,800: insured
for only $650.
Elmer Eaton, living al*out three
miles nearer Nashville than Tanner,
also lost a tine barn, nearly new, and
tilled with hay, which he had just
finished putting in that afternoon.
A large barn on the old Fanny Wil­
son place, about six miles southeast of
the village, was struck by lightning
and destroyed with Its contents. The
barn was an old one, and aside from
the hay With which it was filled tbe

The return of tho heated season
brings renewed activity in all the
forme of city charity, says a Culeago
correspondent. Hot even the bluer
cold of January has so many terrors
for the poorer classes of t&amp;j largest
cities as the seething, sultry days of
August, when sweltering nights suc­
ceed to scorching days, and the regions
where tenement houses and hovels
abound have no comforts for the race
of man. For many a child and many a
woman these, miserable FurroundhiRG
of stifling air aud burning brick walla
bring death or suffering, and the only
rescue for them Is a short vacation In
the country. This is made possible to
them by such a charity as the Chicago
Daily News Fresh-Air Fund. Its plans
and methods are simple enough. It
takes up deserving boys or girls of
needy families, working-girls whose
thin cheeks and bowed shoulders tell ot
fourteep and sixteen hours* work every
day, spurred ■ on incessantly by the
merciless InsUuct df self-preservation.
And it takes thorn out of the cruel city
putting them for a fortnight in the free
country.
There are so many pitiful cases of
want and misery always before the eyes
of city people that never come within
the knowledge of country folks. Flowers
abound out there like good air and sun­
light. But it is Bad to witueea the

eagerness with which these defrauded
city AUdren snatch at'Qie veriest auggestlon of tho Leuutif^' things God
made for them. An oLoerver relates
tliat the other day their car was bridged
on the viaduct near tho Union Depot.
A lady from a suburban train, with a
bunch of Cowers in her hand, threw
away some partly withered roses. A
little newaboy, certainly not large* than
6 years old, eaw them and stood staring
at them ns if entranced. Then ho
looked all around to see If any ono was
coming to clnlm his treasure, and see­

those withered flowers, pressing back
the petals with a orimy hand ana peer­

newsboys came up, and ho divided his
flowers with them, ev dcntly doubling
his pleasure by so doing, as shown by ,
the lighting up of trs fa--e In a smile.
“You could aot have taken in that
scene," the on-looker continued, "with
all its suggestions, without hav.ng your
heart stirred with a desire to bring blos­

little lives."
It is poaeible for a person to do this

TALKED OF THE TARIFF

Disc u Mr&lt;1 lha to*
Madison, Wls., special!: Ton thou­
sand persons gathered at the lakeside to

Friday afternoon-.
A message arrived
In tbe morning that Henry Watterson
would be unable to take part In the de­
bate, and W. ’ C. Warner, ot tho New
York Tariff Reform Club, who Is stump­
ing tho State for tho Democratic com­
mittee, took hls place.
Mr. Warner ajo’io first. He defined
Democracy ua being "Equal rights to
all, and special privileges to none." The
groat question which had been raised
by
the adoption of tho Demo­
cratic platform at
Chicago,
and
which the people
were
to
set­
tle, was "Whether you could tax
a nationJnto prosperity," and on this
question ho would chiefly dwell. Ths
whole system of a protective tariff is
founded on wrong and Injustice. Tbe
system was instituted because we are a
product of the feudal ages, a relic of tho
barbarous ages &lt;f tbe paat. It was
simply a means to compel the common
people to bear the burdens which tho
rich should Lear. If McKinley was
rightly reported to have said that tho
people do not know whether they are
taxed Si or Sl,(M&gt;0.000 by an indirect
system, what, then, Is the use ot mak­
ing such u fuss about It? If tho place of
collecting these taxes were only moved
nearer home, there would be a revolu­
tion not excelled by that of Watt Tyler
In England years ego. It is only the
Ignorance of the common people which
allows the present system to exist. The
Democrats propose to put the revenue
taxes Just as high as possible upon the
things the wealthy use and as low as
possible upon what tho poor use. As a
result ot the McKinley bill we now have
'a Democratic majority in Congress of
150 (almost as much us thetariff on seal
plush). This Is simply a forecast ot the
mighty avalanche which will descend
upon tho Repabllca i$» next November.
The alm ot the Democrat, he said, was
free trade.
Governor McKinley held the vast
audience till supper time. Sahl ho:
"What Is tariff reform, anyway? Who
can toll? Cleveland said several years
ago that ho knew nothing about tho
tariff. In his Madison Garden f-peech
ho told his auditors naught to show that
time bad brought enlightenment to his
mind. And the 150 majority in Con­
gress, what definition has it given to the
term tariff reform? It has passed a bill
to untax wool for iho sole benefit of tho
New England manufacturer and the In­
jury of all farmers, while leaving tho
duty on all woolefi articles- that man is
counted on to wear. Yes, and it has
passed a bill to lift the tariff on cotton
ties for the benefit of the South, while
the almost Identical Iron bands used in
many other callings still have upon
them the old duty. This Is tariff re­
form. This Is the economic policy of
the Democratic party, nnd It might bet­
ter be called no policy at all, for It ob­
viously represents no system nnd can
produce no uniform result for good or

The speaker then dwelt on the sub­
ject of taxation. "This country," he
declared, "must raise $400,000,hOU taxes
annually to defray the expenses of tho
administration. Wo must obtain from
some source or another $1,000,000 every
twenty-four hours. There aro only two
ways possible—by levying a direct tax
upon tho people or an import duty on
the products ot foreign' nations. Tho
nation must adopt one or the other."
The speaker then dwelt on the disad­
vantage of the direct tax system and
quoted Jefferson and Madison as
earnest opponent* of It in time of peace.
In closing, ho said that the United
States had thirty years of protection,
and tho country has improvra its finan­
cial position so that it Is unrivaled
among the nations, and $200,1'00.000 of
the public debt has been । aid. Thirty
years ago 95 per cent, of the hardware
of tho country wus of English make,
but now 95 per cent, is American.

It is governed by an everlasting steel coil spring, in­
stead of the usual weight. The advantage of this will be
readily seen by all. It makes the mill lighter and lessliable
to get out of order. Tin: platform is free and clear rendering
oiling easier and Jess dangerous. The spring is a much bet­
ter governor than a weight, doing its work with greater
nicety and precision. Weight mills ate dangerous. The
weights have been known to fall from exen new mills. Each
year the danger increases. Would yon carry a heavy weight
thirty or forty feet aliove the heads of valuable horses and
cattle, not to speak of the danger to yourself and family,
for 18 to 20 years, the average life of a windmill, the dan­
ger increasing every year, for 81,00 per year? No. With
the Shields mill you rn &lt; no such risk, and it costs you no
more than any other standard mill.
The sails of the Shields mill are init in on a twist, the
angle of the sail at its inner end being double that at the
outer end. This allows the wind to pass freely through the
w’heel at all points, obviating all back pressure and causing
this mill to run in a lighter wind than any mill built
The turn-table of the Shields mill is suspended in the
tower, being stronger and subject to less friction than those
set on a cap on top of the fewer. It is made in the form of
a cup into which fits the lower end of the main spindle. The
spindle is a section of 2J-inch gas-pipe, cast into the main
.part or head of the mill. The working end of this spindle
is fitted accurately into the turn table, making the most easyworking joint known in any mill: and unlike ball and roll
bearings, which grove aud become flat with use, our bearing
wears smoother year by year, and can never wear out
The turn-table or step is perfectly adjustable, laterally
and perpendicularly, so that the mill may be perfectly
plumbed, no matter if the tower be not Almost every
tower settles to one side or the other after being in position
fora short length of time. This makes no difference with
the Shields mill, as it can be set “square with the world” in
a very short time by loosening one bolt and tightening an­
other.
It can not blow off the tower, as a SJnnch gas-pipe runs
down to the turn table, which is 20 inches below the top of
the tower. This pipe is east solidly into the head or main
frame of the mill.
It has the most simple and direct action ]H&gt;ssible from the
wheel to the pumping rod, and is so connected that it has a
peculiar advantage in lifting.
All oil cups are large, so that tallow can be used in sum­
mer and waste and oil in winter.
It is fully guaranteed to do perfect and satisfactory
work. We claim it is the best windmill in the market, and
stand back of it to do and be what we claim.
The Shields mill is perfectly automatic.
It is giving perfect satisfaction wherever used, and
plenty of unsolicited testimonials attest this fact.
The Shields windmill is always budt of the best selected
material.
It is simple, direct, strong, durable.
It it thoroughly well-braeed throughout with steel rods.
It is the best and it is also the cheapest.
The safety from weights, the ease of facing to the wind,
the overcoming of the back pressure, thus giving more power
to the mill, are three points of great importance to every
purchaser of a windmill, and which the Shields twist sail
windmill lias to perfection.
Kemember that it is fully warranted in every respect by
the manufacturers,

FORTY BLOCKS WERE BURNED.

Bay City, Mich., special: The great
conflagration which swept over forty
blocks of business aud residence prop­
erty in the south end of the city yester­
day afternoon completed the work of
destruction at midnight when tho flames
had reached the eastern limits of tho
city. At that hour a few houses were
still burning, but the wind had gone
down and the local fire department, as­
sisted by re-enforcementa from West
Bay City, Saginaw and Flint, had the
conflagration under controL
After the adjournment of the Common
Council last evening a number of
wealthy citizens subscribed several
hundred dollars for tho temporary relief
of families whoso homes had been de­
stroyed. A committee waa appointed
to purchase and distribute provisions.
They immediately set to work, and,
after purchasing the stock of several1,
restaurants, proceeded to the camp of
the homeless with a couple of dray-loads
of provisions. Eatables were appor­
tioned among the sufferers, and at mid­
night, iu the glare of flames which
lighted the firmament, nearly one thou­
sand people partook of the first food
they had tasted since they ate their
noonday meal.
Tbe scene on the commons, where the
people were huddled guarding the few
personal effects they had saved, waa one
of desolation. Such bedding as had
been preserved was arranged on tho sod
and allotted to women who had infants
to core for. To the northward, extend­
ing over half a mile and from two to five
blocks wide, lay a waste of burning em­
bers where less than twelve hours be­
fore had stcod hundreds of happy
homes.
At the break of day the scene
changed to eno ot activity. Tho men
left the groups and proceeded to the
ruins In a vatu attempt to recover prop­
erty overlooked by the flames, while
women and children busied themselves
assorting furniture and securing their
personal effec a from the general maws.
Never did a fire do cleaner work than
this one which swept through tho city
yesterday. Within tho burned locality
not a house Is loft standing, while
every tree Is shipped of foilugo anl
left bkre. Many trees wore blown over
by tbo fierce wind that prevailed whilo
the conflagrath n was at Its height, and
which carried the tiro brands far to tho
east, igniting tho wjods aud tho
prairies in many places.

rt Buccereful atj’empt was made Saturday afternoon to
MMMlnate Henry Clay Frick, Cha!rnaa of tbe Carnegie Steel Company,
limited. Hi* assailant wo* Alexander
Bergmann, a ItoMlon Jew. who came
her* from Mew York, say* a Pittsburg
ilspatch, with the evident Intention of
removing the man who has been tbe
principal on the employers* side In the
treat struggle Dow going on between
capital and labor in this city.
Mr. Frick took lunch at noon^n 1 re­
turned to hls office at 1:30 o'clock. He
wont to the fifth floor, where ho remain­
ed but a few minutes. He then camo
down the elevator to- hls private room
on the second floor, fronting on Fifth
avenue, where bo seated him* It at hls
desk. Tbe office' of Mr. Leishman, a
business partner of Mr. Frick's, adjoins
that of the chairman. Mr. Leishman
came in and the two were holding a
private conference, no one else to lug
in the room. A few minutes before 3
o'clock Harry Heckley, the office boy,
noticed a man hastily push open the
■winging gate In the railing that runs
betweens tbe public rortion and the in• closure whre the desks ot the steneg aphers and clerks are located. There
waa no one near tho private office door,
end the boy nurrled up to ask tho Intru­
der what he wanted, but he was too Lite,
■a the stranger hod already entero 1 tbe
private apartment. As he enteied the
office Mr Friek looked tip, as did also

The man sprung with n about five feet

revolver, pulled the trigger. The first

neck, and glancing downward passed to
tho outside below the armpit. Frick
made an exclamat'on and jumped to the*
circular window on 5th avenue and tried
in vain to open it The assailant passed
quickly in front of tho desk, and, ap­
proaching close to Mr. Frick, Frei again.
The ball antered tbe muscle on the left
side of the neck, and passed around to a
lodgment under the right car, where II
was later reached by the probe.
At this Instant Mr. Leishman threw
himself on tho would-be assassin and
wrestled for posrosslon of the revolver.
Lelshmau clutched the barrel and turned
the muzzle upward as tho cartridge ex­
ploded, the ball entering tbe plastering
near tho glass partition
With agility
tho desperate man drew a dagger and
attempted to stab Leishman, who was
holding the assailant by the shoulder
and body. Mr. Frick saw the gleam of
the steel, and, although staggered by
tho shock of the wounds and bleeding
profusely, jumpod between the men and
seized tho man's arm. Tho latter freed
himself from Leishman's grasp, and
plunged tho dagger into Frick's right
side Just above tho hip, making an ugly
wound three inches long. He made an­
other lunge. This time the knife struck
higher up, but the point struck a rib and
glanced down without inflicting much of
an injpry. Twice again was the knife
thrust at Frick, but he was merely
scratched by these last attempts
to kill him. By this time the office
boys and Deputy Sheriff May, who en­
tered the office just as the first shot was
fired, threw themselves on the, assassin.
May had drawn hls revolver and was
about to shoot tho fellow in the back
when Frick cried out: “Don’t kill him.
We have got him all right. Leave him
to tho law." The man broke away and
tried to escape, but was secured and
taken to tho Central I'oilce Station.
In five minutes a half-dozen surgeons
were at hand. Mr. Frick was told to lie
down on a lounge, and after bls clothing
had been removed tho wound* were
washed and the bleeding stopped. Dur­
ing all this time tbo wounded man was
calm, had a perfect command of hls
faculties, and apparently was less ex­
cited than any other person in the room.
From time to time bo mado suggestions
as to how badly ho was hurt and a half­
hour after the shooting dictated a mes­
sage to Andrew Carnegie about the as­
sault, In which he told him that be
thought ho would bo all right.
Bergmann is said to be unbalanced in
mind. He refuses to talk to any one.

It will require several days to ascer­
tain precisely how many buildings were
consum'd. The total loss is somewhere
around $1.003,A).t. This afternoon tho
most conservative estimate places tho
number of houses burned at 350, while
many persons a-quainted with tho dis­
trict declare that fully 500 were de­
stroyed. 'iho.loss at Miller .t Turner’s
inauufactur.il; plant will reach $200,000.
These figures include 10,000,000 feet of
lumber owned by Joseph Turner and
Spencer, of Fisher. The lumber was
insured for $95,001) and represents a
loos of al out $150,000. Albert Miller,
senior member of the firm, loses every­
thing. His fine residence, situated
on Thirtieth street, lay directly in
the | ath of the fire and was reduced
to ashes within an hour after the con­
flagration broke out. Stover A Larkins,
hardware merchants, suffer to the ex­
tent of $15,000, with $8,000 insurance.
Irish A Forcia lose a general stock
valued at $15,000. A. B. Gould had a

$40,0:&gt;0. Tbe firm of MHler .t Turner

$60,000. They claim to be fully pro­

destroyed belonging to other parties,
each of which, with their furnishings,

of Buelah’s death, which appeared in
our paper last week.
It was stated
that the skin apd parts of the flesh
dropped off when the clothing was re­
moved; she wishes to say that the
flesh did not drop off at all but that
she was scalded so that the skin came
off when the garment was taken off
which she bad been wrapped in while
waiting for the doctor to arrive. The
shock was such that the doctor 'said
she did not realize the pain at all.
She had her senses until the last, and
she passed away quietly about twel ve
o'clock that night. •

TRADE IS IMPROVING.

II. G. Dun &amp; Co.’» weekly review 61
trade says:
In every respect save eno the busi­
ness outlook distinctly improves. The
heavy solos of American stocks by for­
eign holders continue and draw largo
amounts of gold from tho country, in­
dicating foreign distrust of American
finances.
It is within the mark to say that the
volume of trade in July, as indicated by
clearing-house exchanges, is fully 15
per cent, larger than last year and
greater than in any previous year, in
spite of tbe decline of 5 per cent, in
prices since a year ago.
Imports are enormous, exceeding last
year's over 19 per cent, the last month,
which is proof of great activity in do­
mestic manufactures and consumption.
Speculation has made higher prices
for breadstuff*, half a cent for wheat In
spite of receipts at the West exceeding
1.000,000 bushels a day, with exports of
B00.U00 bushels in three days.
Corn has been advanced nearly 5
cents in nmall sales, and oats 2j cents,
Western reports favoring shorter esti­
mates.
Cotton has declined J on sales of 596.(KlObalcs for the week, crop reports be­
ing more favorable. Coffee is i stronger

out the country during the lost seven

Owing to the wide interest excited
over the possible results of the present
observations of tho planet Mars by ex­
perts at tho Lick observatory. Prof. Ed­
ward 8 Holden, in charge of observa­
tions at Mount Hamilton, has tele­
graphed as follows: "There Is abso­
lutely nothing to be said about our Mars
observations from night to night, or
about our observations of the whole
year, even, until after the work has been
gone over with care and a map made or
our results, which will take until Octo­
ber next at least ’AU or nearly nil of
the present excitement over 'Mars is
merely exaggeration and sham excite­
ment, utterly useless to the people in
general as it is harmful to true science. ”
Gen. James H. Baker, the Alliance
candidate for Governor of Minnesota,
has written a letter withdrawing his
name. This leaves the field to the other
wing ot the party, headed by Ignatius
Donnelly. It is stated tn a St. Paul
dispatch that tho Alliance wing, numLonng approximately 2,000 votes, will
join tho Democrats. The Donnelly fac­
tion will make its fight in the legislative

Alice Mitchell told on the witness stand
how she deliberately cut Freda Ward’s

I cut her throat first; that was the first

WHAT CONGRESS

HAS

DONE.

The future compiler of the official
history of the laws of tho United States
will not nocd much space in which to
Inscribe the really important laws en­
acted by tho first session of the Llld
congress, says a Washington correspon­
dent. Tho session has not been re­
markable for its actual accomplishments
so far as respects large legislation.
Efforts more or les* vigorous have
been made to pass through both houses
of Congress bills dealing with Queetiona
that occupy a large share of public at­
tention, but these, with a single excep­
tion, hrfve failed .of accomplishment.
The sole mcosure of tho flrat class Id
importance, not counting tho appropria­
tion bills which have become a law, la
tho Chinese exclusion bill, and political
expediency has much to do with its
rapid Congressional progress. This bill,
the Inman registry bill, tho Black Hawk
and Seminole Indian war* pension bill,
tho eight-hour bill, tho bill to enable
tho President to enforce reciprocal
canal arrangements with Canada, the
army nurse bill, tho Intermediate pen­
sion bill, and tho bill to Increase the
pay of life-savers are about the ouly
measures of much general Interest en­
acted Into law.
Free silver, the tariff, the antl-optlon
bill, retrenchment of appropriations and
a $5,000,000 loan to the World’s Fair
have beeh the live topics of the session.
The first three subjects have been
killed, at least until after the election,
while the last is still before Congress.
The House passed approximately 475
bills, of which 284 were passed by tho
Senate and sent to tho President. Of
the bills rassed by the House 220 were
public blits, including measures relat­
ing to tho District of Columbia; 151 pri­
vate pension bills; 48 bills to rehaovo
charges of desertion; and 41 private bills
of a miscellaneous character.
The Senate passed 691 bills, only 113
of which succeeded in running the gant­
let of the House and reaching tho Presi­
dent. Two of the Utter number the
President vetoed, vis., tho bill to send
the famous McGan-aiutn claim to the
Court of Claims for adjudication and a
bill to amend the Court of Appeals act.
Throe bill* the President permitted to
become laws without his signature.
The noteworthy feature of the private
bills which became laws was the Urgo
percentage of them relating to services
in the Mexican war, tho Indian wars
and the war of 181f, the beneficiaries be­
ing chiefly Southern men.
The Bering Sea trouble with Great
Britain was the ugliest complication
the Senate* had to consider behind closed
doors, and a peaceful solution of it was
found in Ha reference to an arbitration

MARKED
DIFFERENCES
BE­
TWEEN TWO SPEAKERS.

the first half of
this century one
of the commanding figures in the
House of Commons was that of Sir
Robert Peol, and in the second half a
central and equally commanding,
figure is that of his youngest son, the
Right lion. Arthur Wellesley Peel,
the present Speaker, whose portrait,
from a recent photograph, is here
given.
For many years before his election
to the Speakership in 1884, during
Mr. Gladstone's second administra­
tion, Mr. Peel was one of the best
known men in the House of Com­
mons.
For twenty-seven years he
has
uninterruptedly
represented
Warwick at Westminister.
Three
years after bls admission to the “As­
sembly of Great Thinkers," as the
Anglo-Saxons called the Parliament
of their day, Mr. Peel became Parlia­
mentary Secretary to the Board of
Trade.
In 1873 he was appointed
Patronage Secretary to the Treasury,

much pny for presiding over thenohj
branch of Congress ns Is given the
Speaker of the House of Commons In
England. But he docs not have to
wear tbe curly wig.
His head is not
upholstered.
That is one compensa­
tion for the difference In salary.
Though the Speaker of the American
House wears less hair and draws less
pay than the corresponding official of
the British Government, he occupies
immensely
greater
influence
in
legislative affairs, and
his rel­
ative rank
fn tho government
is higher. -The Speaker of the House
Is properly next in rank to the Presi­
dent. The Vic)? President is great
chiefly In ttfiFTact of his nearness In
successlotpto the President and the
po-siljlfTty that he may become Presi­
dent, but as long -as he remains
merely Vice President he is an alter­
nate to rank and a comparatively un­
important personage |n the govern­
ment. The Speaker of the House,
however, has the appointment ot
committee; who shall take charge of
the* business of the House, and he
practically dictates the policy of the
House. There have, perhaps, been
some Speakers of small influence, but
they have been exceptions. Speakers
Reed, Blaine, 'Randall, and Carlisle
each in his time exercised a powerful
influence upon legislation.
In appearance there is a striking
contrast between Speaker Crisp and
Speaker Peel, oven leaving out of
consideration the difference in their
dress while exercising their official
functions.
The only other office tbe Speaker
bolds by reason of his position in the
House is that of Chairman of the
Committee on Rules, to which Com­
mittee is referred all questions of the
order of business. The Speaker usu­
ally dominates that
committee,
though, of course, he may be voted
down by a majority of his four as­
sociates.
x
He has no perquisites of power be-'
yond his salary of 110,000 a year, can
hold no other office under the govern­
ment during
his incumbency as
Speaker, and has neither title nor
pension after retirement from Lhe of­
fice. It is an office won through popu­
larity and ability and held only by
those qualities which give a man a
commanding position in his party.. It
1$ in the power of the Speaker to re­
ward his friends and punish his ene­
mies in many ways, but though Lhe
contest which resulted In Mr. Crisp's
election was a hot one, there have
been no punishments for those who
preferred another to him, and the
rewards have been measured out tc
ability and trustworthiness almost
without regard to faction.

“The dramatic manner in which
newspaper reports of railroad wrecks
frequently refer to the heroic engineer
who died with his hand on tbe throt­
tle Is amusing." said the General Su­
perintendent of a Chicago line. “Of
course nothing too good can be said
about a man who Idses bis life at ids
post of duty, but the plain fact Is
that an engineer who *dle$ with his
hand on the throttle' does so because
be has nothing else tp take hold of.
I have made a few runs myself in my
time and 1 speak by the card. It is
generally admitted by experienced
locomotive engineers that the safest
thing to do when a collision is about
to occur is to drop down behind the
boiler head and grasp the throttle
regulator with both hands. This
may prevent the engineer from being
hurled out of the cab, and the boiler
head protects him to a certain extent
from being crushed when the cab Is
telescoped from the front. Of course
if the tender Is thrown upon tile cab
ho will be caught from the rear, but
he takes his chances at the best. If
he Jumps he is very liable to strike a
stone pile or to have the engine fall
over on him before he cat get away,
and 1 think the records will show
that fully as many engineers arc
killed by jumping as by sticking to
their cabs and holding to the throttle
regulator, which is the most con ven lent
and substantial means of support.”

The Bo ise has passed tho amended
Durborow World's Fair bill by a vote of
131 yeas to 83 Days. Tho bill was sign­
ed by the Speaker as soon as tho result
was announced and was Immediately
lent over to tlie Senate. As passed, the
bill gives outright to tho Columbian Ex­
position $2^00,003 on -condition that the
doors be dosed on Sundays.
The
pledges made to the friends of tho Fair
were kept. In every instance.
, At noon Friday tho House resumed,
In committee of the whole, the consid­
eration of tho bill. Mr. Cummings, of
New York, opened th® opposition with a
bitter speech against a proposition which
he characterized as one which was in­
tended to loot tho Treasuiy.
The
World’s Fair proposition had so mixed
itself up with the Government that it
■Was difficult to tell which was tho
World’s Fair and which was tho Gov­
ernment. The remnants of former Congfeases had covered tho floor so that It
could hardly be told whether the j res­
ent Congress ortho heel-taps of former
Congresses ran the House. It was a
matter of pride with him that he bad
filibustered against this looting appro­
priation.
♦
Mr. Fellows of New York eloquently
supported the bill. The work, ho su'd,
was a Governmental one. Tho Idea of
the fair had been born In Congress; it
ha l its Inception hero. From too start
to tho finish It was a Governmental
work.
Tho debate continued until 1 o'clock.
Much of it was entirely foreign to the
question pending and referred to tho
Commissioner of Pefisions. Precisely
at 1 o'clock (ho Chairman of tho com­
mittee of the whole stated that under
the order of tho House tho committee
must rise. Having arisen, the Dur­
borow bill was reported Io tho House.
The ponding amendment (and tho only
one) was a substitute offered by Mr.
De Armon 1, ot Missouri, for tho first
section of the b'll. It provide'that if

sufficient quantity ot silver bullion it

not exceeding $5,000,000. The »ubstxtuto was rejected; yeas, 7fl; nays. 139.
The roll was then calk'd for tho vote
on tho final passage of tho Durborow
bill and tho result was—yeas, 114: nays,

The first session of tbe LI Id Congress
has passed into history. The final ad­
journment came at 11 o’clock Friday
n g bl. One of tlie final acts of the sesidon was tho passage of the Durborow
bill giving $2.500.1,-00 to the World’s
Fair. President Harrison signed '111©
World's Fair bill at 9:10 o’clock, and
tbe pen which he used was surrepti­
tiously captured by Col. Elliott ’ F.
Shepard of New York as u souvenir.
President Harrison drove to the Capi­
tol at 8:30 o'clock in order to sign such
bills as might be passed during the expir­
ing moments of the session. The Presi­
dent was accompanied by Secretaries
Foster and Noble, Private Secretary
Halford and a retinue of Whlte House
’attendants. They went to tho historic
President’s tojiu in the lobby of tjie
Senate, where the President immedi­
ately set about clearing away tho pile
of bills which were engrossed and ready
for his signature. He was in light and
breezy attire, with a white flower in
his buttonholo, and the absence of a
vest showed a broad expanse of white
shirt-front. First came a number ol
minor bills to which tbe Presidential
signature was affixed. Then &lt; nmc one
more bulky than the rest It was the
Durborow bill, carrying $2,500,000 to the
World’s Fair. The .President read il
through carefully and then, without
hesitation, picked up his pen to .sign.
“Here, take this pen," said Secretary
Halford, extending an ordinary stub pen
Instead of the one which the President
had been using. Mr. Harrit.on took the
pen and scratched his name on the
.parchment. Mr. Ha'ford at once pos­
sessed himself of the pen and bore if
away triumphantly.
It was not until
half an hour later that the World’s Fail
people learned, w.th not a llttly chagrin
aud indignation, that Col. Shepard wa‘
to be the possessor of the pen which
made tho World’s Fair appropriation an
assured fart.

CURE FOR

PNEUMONIA.

Blood of a Convalescent Injected Into tbe
Sufferer'. System.

A novo! operation was performed nt
the Philadelphia hospital by Visiting
Physician W. E. Hughes in tho pres­
ence of the resident staff and nurses,
and tho result has been so' favorable
that It is now the opinion of the medical
men interested that a now and Im­
mediate euro for pneumonia has been
discovered.
Tho operation consisted in a patient
who was recovering from the disease
being bled, and his blood being infused
Into the arm of the sufferer. The patient
on. whom tho operation was performed
was a white man who had been brought
In by the district surgeons Tho con­
valescent from whom blood whs ex­
tracted was a colored man.
Au Incision was mndo in tho while
man's upper-arm, and one of the veins
was isolated for about half an inch.
After it had been bound and the natural
flow of blood stopped, a ellt was made In
It and a glass tube with a wide aperture
was Inserted. Then about a p'nt of
blood, extracted from the arm of the
colored man. was poured in. Gravity
carried it Into the veins, and soon tho
blood was coursing through tho man’s
body. In order that the body should
not be supercharged with blool a similar
amount was extracted previous to tho
operation. This was black and un­
healthy-looking, while tho blood infused
was of a bright-red color.
After the operation tho man’s temj erature rose, and symptoms similar to
those that were noticed after the Koch
lymph injections followed. In u few
hours, however, a change for tho Ixittcr
set In, and the next morning the man's
temperature was normal, and apparently
ho is a well man.
According to tho theory acted upon,
tho system of a convales.-ont is lull of
the pneumonia bacteria antidote, and
when the blood charged with this Is In­
fused into a sufferer it works a cure

NEW

SPEAKER or THE IlOt'KZ OF COMMONS,

and for nine months in 1880 he was
Under Secretary to the Home Depart­
ment To the reader unfamiliar with
English institutions It may be neces­
sary to state that a- seat In the
House of Commons, instead of being
inconsistent with the holding of these
positions, is necessary to them, as in
the case of cabinet officers.
Attached to the Speakership is a
salary of 825,000 a year and an afficial
residence. Detached from it. but
shining in the distance, is the luster
of a jlatent of nobility and a scat in
the house of lords, besides a retiring
pension of 820,000 a year. During
his term of office the Speaker is the
first commoner of the land, taking
precedence’ of others by custom and
legislative enactment.
The political influence of the Eng­
lish Speaker is infinitesimal com­
pared to that wielded by the Speaker
of the United States Congress. Here
tbe presiding officer never, or hardly
ever, seeks to divert the course of leg­
islation, nor does be name tho com­
mittees of the House. His duty is
mainly to insist on a strict observ­
ance of the rules, and to keep a close
eye on all those things which Involve
the “dignity of tbe House," to which
Englishmen attach such Immense im­
portance. For bls peculiar duties
Mr. Peel is well equipped. He pos­
sesses a fine business aptitude, a full
knowledge of parliamentary usages,
and a disposition that can be serene
or severe, urbane or austere, as occa­
sion demands the exercise of those
essential qualities. He has also the
physical qualification* of a sonorous
voice and a commanding presence.
His desk is not gavel-battered like
our Speaker's, for, ns a rule, he easily
controls the House. He arts with
Jove-lilae serenity in his rich robes.

Colonel Ritter taid the Cincinnati con­

Bidwell, who was as well qualified as
any man in the nation to represent and

greatest pleasure, he said, to notify the
distinguished Californian of h s nomina­

honor given and the people for tho cc-ufldenco expressed.
He gave hearty as­

power to exercise that trust with all tho
faithfulness and dignity Its Importance
demanded. The speaker was frequently

Io End Two Live-*.

Ths most tragic of double murders
Imaginable was enacted near Celina,
Ohio. Ballenbaugh Brothtrs' thrash­
ing machine was at work on Henry
Schlense’s farm, ami John Shrybock
and Frank Day, two old enemies, were
helping operate It. Shrybook let his
knife slip and cut Day's hand. He ot
once apologized, but Day threatened,
In case It happened again, to throw
Shrybock into the machine..
Presently Shrybock again let it ellp
and cut Day's band.
Day, to the
horror of all present, then proceeded to
carry out his horrible threat. Seizing
Shrybock around tho waist ho -hurled
him head first into the machine. The
engineer stopped the machine and
caught Day Just as ho was about to run
nwny. With the greatest possible dlfliautty tho mutilated remains of Shrybock
#ero extricated from tho machine. Ho
was literally torn to shreds and to
recognize him even for what had once
been a human being would have been
impossible.
Henry fchrybock, his brother, was
hastily summoned. When he learned
what had happened his rage knew no
bounds. Despite everything that could
bo don?, he seized a pitchfork and,
rush'ng upon Day, plunged It thrice
into his body. Day dropped dead at
once. Shrybock gave himself up to the
authorities, and was locked up on a
charge of murder.

It is governed by an everlasting steel coil spring, in­
stead of tiie usual weight The advantage of this will be
readily seen by sill. It makes the mill lighter and less liable
to get out of order. The platform is free and clear rendering
oiling easier and less dangerous. The spring is a much bet­
ter governor than a weight, doing its work with greater
lycety and precision. Weight mills are dangerous. The
weights have been known to fall from even new mills. Each
year the danger increases. Would you carry a heavy weight
thirty or forty feet above the heads of valuable horses and
cattle, not to speak of the danger to yotirself and family,
for 18 to 20 years, the average life of a windmill, the dan­
ger increasing every year, for $1.00 per year! No. With
the Shields mill you ru.i no such risk, and it costs you no
more than any other standard mill.
The sails of the Shields mill are put in on a twist, the
angle of the sail at its inner end being double that at the
outer end. This allows the wind to pass freely through the
wheel at all points, obviating all back pressure and causing
this mill to run in a lighter wind than any mill built
The turn table of the Shields mill is suspended in the
tower, being stronger and subject to less friction than those
set on a cap on top of the tower. It is made in the form of
a cup into which fits the lower end of the main spindle. The
spindle is a section of 2J inch gas-pipe, cast into the main
part or head of the mill. The working end of this spindle
is fitted accurately into the turn table, making tlie most easy
Working joint known in any mill; and unlike ball and roll
bearings, which grove and become flat with use, our bearing
wears smoother year by year, and can never wear out
The turn table or step is perfectly adjustable, laterally
and perpendicularly, so that the mill may be perfectly)
plumbed, no matter if the tower be not Almost every
tower settles to one side or the other after being in position
for a short length of time. This makes no difference with
the Shields mill, as it can be set ’‘square with the world" in
a very short time by loosening one bolt and tightening an­
other.
It can not blow off the tower, as a 2J-inch gas-pipe runs
down to the turn table, which is 20 inches below the top of
the tower. This pipe is cast solidly into the head or main
frame of the mill.
It has the most simple and direct action possible from the
wheel to the pumping rod, and is so connected that it has a
peculiar advantage in lifting.
All oil cups are large, so that tallow can be used in sum­
mer and waste and oil in winter.
It is fully guaranteed to do perfect and satisfactory
work. We claim it is the best windmill in the market, and
stand back of it to do and be what we claim.
The Shields mill is perfectly automatic.
It is giving perfect satisfaction wherever used, and
plenty of unsolicited testimonials attest this fact

It is simple, direct, strong, durable.

It is the best and it is also the cheapest.
The safety from weights, the ease of facing to the wind,
the overcoming of the back pressure, thus giving more power

purchaser of a windmill, and which the Shields twist-sail
windmill has to perfection.
Remember that it is fully warranted in every respect by
the manufacturers,

The effort to get up a brass trust Is
untimely; all of the bras* will be in

Gladstone will earn the title of the

engineered that appropriation.

There is one consolation about our

I was never more mort ified than
last week. 1 bad endeavored on my
stud farm at Buck Shoals to rear a
new and attractive mule, anti in May
we were blessed with a little bunny
mule of the day lank variety, sired
by a Kentucky papa and damned on
the place.
For years 1 have nut been cursed by
pride. Since the artist has Igen prac­
ticing on me with a view to Illustrat­
ing a iMsik called "Life Among .the
Lowly; or Eighty Years on the door
for Mophistopheles," I van truly say
that 1 am not proud, but a week ago I
went to town with the mother of the
new mule. Marguerite, as I deemed it
time tu wean her. So we left Mar­
guerite moored to the well curb, and I
drove on to Asheville &lt;0 market a
bunch uf fat pine.
The lay was beautiful. The odor
of the clover and the sweet seductive
smell of the azal la seemed to lift me
off the seal.
A small black hornet
also assisted in the great woik.
"Oh, Joy! oh, Joy!” I said; "what a
gladsome day. Is it not indeed a
plumb honev?” as we say in Hooper
township. The air was impregnated
with ozone, and now and then we
could hear the neigh of my palfrey
neighing.
She neighed for her absent child
with a mother’s neigh. The fact that
bitter things had been said about her
and social ostracism had come with
the little stranger did nut steel her
warm mother heart toward the little
one. True, she could not remember
any of her folks who ran so freely t&lt;&gt;
cars as Marguerite did, but she recked
not.
When I had marketed my fat pine
kindling wood at the Kenilworth Inn
I bought hay with the money, for 1
Lave to buy hay In order to feed my
stock on the farm, so that they can
cultivate my farm, so that I can look
forward to the time when I can buy
more hay tn feed my team, so that
they will feel strong and wel’ -enough
to cultivate the soil, so that I will be
cheered on to buy more hay for the
same purpose.
As I stood at the porte cochere ot
the hotel, looking down Intu the
eyes of a bright yuung girl from Tux­
edo, who is here for her father's asth­
ma, though he is not here yet,
1
heard, ixirnc across the beautiful l»$om of tbe Swananoa. the mellow bray
of Marguerite. She came with a fam­
ished snort, and Sheridan, some t wenty
odd miles away, was nowhere. There
was a rattle of tiny hoofs on the
travel drive, a little glad cry of recog­
nition from the mamma, and the clay
bank muie/Margurite, was monkeying
with what is called the maternal
font.
The reader can readily understand
how the mule,Marguerite, by connect­
ing herself with my palfrey, had hurt
me socially at Kenilworth inn, aud
how the young lady who came here to
try lhe balsam and the healing of the
North Carolina mountains for her
father's asthma excused herself to get
a heavier wrap, thereby Intimating
that there was a coolness between us;
also that I needed a heavier wrap.
A nvway. I have never seen her since.
To return to our national roads. It
is a wonder that we have, as Amer­
icans, so long submitted to the savage

tliat we generally select our choicest
and densest ass to superintend the

in many cities our streets also.

proceeded, he waa greeted by the din of an ad­

Governor's face and to'.d him he could
not intimate that ha &lt;Orr&gt; was not
truthful without having it thrown in his
(Tillman'S' teeth. He told him further
that he (Tillman) had boasted of being
“God Almighty's gentleman.”
The
Governor said so ho had, and Orr re­
plied:
“He did aot do hjmself credit when
ho made you.”
Oct again caught hold ot tho Governor
and asked If he intimated that ho waa a
liar; Tho Governor said that if Orr did
not originate the statement, his remarks
did not apply to hitn. By this time tho
crowd had become a raging mob. Men
pulled off thoir coats, climbed upon tho
stand, cursed, and gathered around tbe
two men, and for several minutes a
bloody riot seemed imminent. Col. Orr
for the third time caught hold of Till­
man and told him if he wanted a fight he
could get it. Tbe Governor eaid he did
not, and Col. Orr went back to bis scat,
remarking that Tillman must let him
alone. Quiet was then restored.

murder,

the climax, tut op account of the high
legal ability and literary attainments of
the murderer himself. . On March 10 of
last year, at about the noon hour. King,
who hod evidently been in waiting for
bls victim, stepped from an alley Into a
crowded street, and fatally shot David
H. Poston, the wounded man expiring
the evening of the same day.
■ Henry Clay King’s downfall can be
traced entirely to hia allurement from
the path of honof by Mrs. Mary J‘ Pil­
low. widow of Gen. Gideon J. Pillow,
who distinguished himself to the Mexi­
can war, and who, during the siege of
Fort Donelson, declined the command
of the Confederate forces In favor of
Gen.Buckner, the officer who was com­
pelled to capitulate in a few days to the
victorious Grant.
.
When Cob King met Mrs. Pillow their
meeting was a chance one, in the or­
dinary affairs of business, to his own
office, and from that hour the great law­
yer was her slave. Finding that con­
cealment of the facts from the public
was impossible, be finally threw off the
mark ami went with the woman, openly
deserting his wife and children. It was
then that popular disapproval began to
manifest itself, and its effect upon
King's business and personal associa­
tions was soon more than ho could
stand. To escape an indignation, dally
growing into wrath on the part of Mem­
phis citizens, the Colonel, accompanied
by his enanarer, removed to his planta­
tion to Lee Couny, Arkansas.
Mrs. Pillow to a few months began to
lay plans to secure King's property to
her own name. In
her wily way she
suggested to her ad/

other than himself.
_
The ruse was sue- LA'TrXR ro"TOX
cessful. Within a year Mrs. Pillow was
the undisputed owner of the Arkansas
plantation and h id prevailed upon King
to have the legal instruments duly made
out deeding the Memphis homestead,
occupied by his wife and children. By
mutual egret merit thia deed was loft
unrecorded, the preparation of tho pa­
pers simply being Lntende I to promptly
thwart any attempt on the part of Ids
wife's relatives to deprive him of his
right to the property. But Mrs. Pillow
was not disposed to let su h an excel­
lent chance slip by to add to her
estate. Unknown to the Colonel she
took tho deeds and quietly had them
registered. When King discovered her
perfidy his rage 1 now no bounds.
Feigning a lingering respect for his
family, he accused tho author of his
ruin with dishonesty and deception as
wall as a desire to reduce to poverty his
wife and children, who had done her no
harm. The battle, which was long and
loud, ended to Mr. Pillow's ordering
King off her property, and he had to
obey. Ttys caused him to bring suit in
the Arkansas courts for the recovery of
his property, which ltd to tho publica­
tion of the digracaful story in detail.
Poston A Poston, of Memphis, were
retained os Mps. Pillow’s attorneys, tho
senior partner of tho firm being David
H. Posted, tho murdered man. Poston
was regarded as one of th&lt;y ablest
lawyers in .Tennessee, and was pecu­
liarly noted for plainness and force of
speech, which cut to the quick of his an­
tagonist at every sentence. In King's
case, which afforded him unusual oppor­
tunity, he used this gift Io the utmost.
To the judge and jury ho uncovered the
plaintiff's .real character, and was un­
sparing hi the terms of denunciation
applied. This was iboro than the fiery
Southern blood of Henry Clay King
could bear, and the following day he
shot 1‘oston down as related.
Soon after his imprisonment for tho
crime, Mrs. King, whom ho had so
cruelly treated and deserted, came to
see her husband In his trouble, and a
reconciliation was effected. From that
day she has nobly stood by him, and it
was mainly through her heroic efforts to
his behalf that the Governor was pre­
vailed upon to commute the sentence.
GUARDING AGAINST CHOLERA.

The members of the New York Board
of Health held a conference upon the
subject of cholera and smallpox and the
precaution necessary to avert an epi­

It was decided that should
cholera makes Its appearance those
stricken should be isolated at some re­
treat other than North Brother Island,
where smallpox, typhus and leprons
patients are cared for. It was also de­
cided to issue circulars to all practicing
physicians and to certain officials and
citizens urging them to report Instantly
all cases of cholera morbus coming un­
der their observation. The same sys­
tem will be pursued in suppressing
smallpox nnd typhus, which are now so
prevalent. The fifty members of the

Early fn the morning the pro­
visional brigade under the command
of Colonel Hawkins was .ordered to
assemble on parade. Three regiments
of Infantry and a battery of artillery
turned out and drew up In two lines
facing each other on the parade
ground. The disgraced soldier was
brought out by a corporal guard.The corporal turned him over to a
lieutenant, who with twenty men
proceeded to march him from one
end of the parade ground to the other
and then back again. The soldiers
looked at him curiously, but there
was no anger or displeasure In their
glances. They all pitied him. He
was brought before Col. Hawkins,
and- an adjutant proceeded to read
the report which had been submitted
to Gen. Snowden and the orders
which the General had given. lams
listened to it with an air of indiffer­
ence. His face betrayed no emotion
whatever. When it was finished Col.
Hawkins said to him: “My man, this
has been an exceedingly painful duty
for me to perform, but I think the
punishment was just. You are now
discharged in disgrace from the ser­
vice. You will be escorted to the
limits of the camp. If.you ever dare
enterlt again you will be summarily
dealt with."
The regimental drum corps then
fell in line and began playing the
“Rogue’s March.” lams was ordered
to luarch behind them, and he was
followed by his regiment. This strange
parade moved over the hilltop aud
down as far as the railroad station,
wherp lams was put aboard a train
for home.

bearings, which grove and become flat with use, our bearing
wears smoother year by year, and can never wear out
The turn table or step is perfectly adjustable, laterally
and perpendicularly, so that the mill may be perfectly
plumbed, no matter if the tower be not. Almost every
tower settles to one side or the other after being in position
for a short length of time. This makes .no difference witli
the Shields mill, as it can be set “square with the world” in
a very short time by loosening one bolt and tightening an­
other.
It can not blow off the tower, as a 2J-inch gas-pipe runs
down to tile turn table, which is 20 inches below the top of
the tower. This pipe is cast solidly into tho head or main
frame of the mill.
It has the most simple and direct action possible from the
wheel to the pumping rod, and is so connected that it has a
peculiar advantage in lifting.
All oil cups are large, so that tallow can be used in sum­
mer and waste and oil in winter.
It is fully guaranteed to do jierfect and satisfactory
work. We claim it is the best windmill in the market, and
stand back of it to do and be what we claim.
The Shields mill is perfectly automatic.
It is giving perfect satisfaction wherever used, and
jflenty of unsolicited testimonials attest this fact
The Shields windmill is always built of the best selected
material.
It is simple, direct strong, durable.
It it thoroughly well-braced throughout witli steel rods.
It is the best and it is also the cheapest.
The safety from weights, the ease of facing to the wind,
the overcoming of the back pressure, thus givipg more power
to the mill, are three points of great importance to every
purchaser of a windmill, and which the Shields twist-sail
windmill lias to perfection.

Heitor than a Ship Canal.

A ship canal would undoubtedly serve
tho same purpose If that purpose was to
bring vessels from the Georgian Bay to
Lake Ontario, but tho groat object in
tho handling of freights to-day is speedy
transit, and that a ship canal cannot
give. The great objection to a ship
canal, in fact to all canals at the pres­
ent day, is tho loss of time not only In
locking a vessel through but the slow
progress that is made in a confined
channel. It would take almost as long
to bring a vessel from the Georgian
Buy by a ship canal as it would take for
tho same vessel to sail around by the
long route.
The difference In time
would be very trifling. Tho following
extract from London Engineering for
Feb. 1, 1884, d scussing th? effect of
navigation in a confined waterway, gives
Bcientlflc confirmation to opr statement:
“It is a unlversa'.ly recognized fact that
vessels steer better, are more easily
propelled, and are altogether more man­
ageable when movltfg through a capiclous waterway. Tho vessel In motion
has to, bo forced through the water, and

about fifteen miles of this distance
through opetf lakes. The speed by reg­
ulation Is limited to five miles, but’at
this speed vessels run aground.
Then again there is the relative cost
of a ship railway and a canal to be con­
sidered, with the odds far in favoriof the
former. Tho Welland canal which is
only twenty - six and three - quarter
miles; cost the government. In round*
numbers, $94,000,000. A ship, canal
from the-Georgian Bay to Lake Ontario
would cost at the very least double this
sum, 1 nd the water on the rnetcr sills is
only fourteen feet deep. To increase
this depth to twenty feet would cost al­
most as much more. Compare with this
the cost of a ship railway, which Is fixed
by Mr. Corthell at $15,459,318.09. A
ship railway can bring a vessel easily
at the rote of ten miles an hour, or from
end to end of tho ship* railway In about
Seven "hours. Mr Corthelbhaq compiled
a very Interesting statistical table,
which "Was given In his address before
the Canadian Society of Civil Engineers
In 1891. The sailing distance from Chi­
cago to Montreal by the Ontario Ship
Railway is 1,001 miles qs against the
distance by tho Welland canal 1,263
miles, a saving of 262 miles. The sail­
ing time frpm Chicago to Montreal by
thc-Wellkrid Canal Is 126.58 hours, via
the Ontario Ship railway 93.14 hours, or
a paving of thirty-three hours.
The
estimated cost per ton over tho ship
railway Is three and four-tenth miles
per ton per mile. This Includes tho
cost .of operation of tho ship railway
and 6 per cent on tho cost of construc­
tion. The cost per mile from Chicago
to Liverpool by tho Ontario Ship Ilair­
way is estimated at $3.48, by the Wel­

cost of construction, cost of operation
and speed thow in favor of the Ontario
Ship Railway project, as compared with
a ship canal or with any proposed route.
It remains now but to give a descrip­
tion of tho principle upon which the
road is to be constructed and tho method
of transit
.
The principle of a ship railway is no
new one. It was practiced from time
immemorial. The cane portage Is a
ship railway in embryo. Larger ves­
sels have been hauled at various times
overland. Four hundred years before
Christ the Athenians transported thqir
galleys over the Isthmus of Corinth.
Charles XII. of Sweden In 1718 trans­
ported i omo vessels fourteen miles by
rolling machines at tho siege of Frederlokshall. Large ships are hauled out
of tho water every day by means of
marine railways. Now this Is how tho
Ontario Ship Railway Is to bo built, as
described by Mr. Corthell himself: At
each end of tho’rallway a busin will be
excavated to admit tho vessels to tho
lifting dock, which will bo constructed
of steel plates with substantial bulk­
heads in each direction, and will
bo about four hundred and fifty
feet long, seventy-five
foot wide,
■d
from
twelve
to
fifteen
root deep, and capable of raising
vessels from six to seven thousand tons
weight. One ot tho objections that are
continually urged against lifting loaded
vessels is the fact that they would bring
upon tho carriage or car unequal
weights. ' One of the special designs of
the dock Is an appliance for equalizing
tho weight of the vessel and distributing
it perfectly over the whole area of tho
corrlngo which transports It. The dis­
tribution of weight is effected by a sys­
tem of hydraulic rams or presses. Tho
rams are situated on o deck placed
about six feet below tho upper deck or
pontoon. They are arranged so that
there will be the same area of pressure
on every cross line. These cross lines
are spaced six feet seven inches apart,
aud the number In each line corre­
sponds to its position under tho
vessel; those under the midship sec­
tion of the vessel having seven rams;
tito.se nearer the b.iw or stern five
and then three rams; while under tbo
bow and stern tho wholo supporting
area is concentrated in one ram. These
rams are also arranged in seven longi-

For the latest news of the nniverxe read Tth: Nkwh.

1 f a woman hears a bad story on a
man she t»egins to openly pity his wife
for her Ignorance of It, instead of qui­
etly rejoicing for her.

Every press agent of a circus claims
to be an “old newspaper man," but
most of them are old liars Instead.
Anyway, not one circus press agent
in fifty has the slightest idea of his
business The time he should deyote
to thd interest of his employer, he de­
votes to telling how he used to work
on the New A ork Trlb., and how tbe
proprietor always came into bis-room,
and begged the favor of bis advice.
A man employed by a circus in any
capacity soon becomes as wooden
headed as a tobacconist's sign. There
is nothing but horse and animal in
the business. The bill-posters have a
swagger, and the ring master a strut,
and the performers have no more idea
ot politeness or decency than the
trick dogs. The circus business has
played out, and It is because there
never was the slightest lutelligcncetor
decency in the business. The same
pack-saddle and clown performances
are giyen in the ring year after year,
and made as long as possible In order
to allow the pickpockets with the cir­
cus to rob tbe people. A little hon­
esty and intelligence in tbe circus bus­
iness would pay better than a seven
legged elephant.

Yesterday morning another test
was made of the water works recently
put in in the village, aad while the re­
sult* were an improvement over the
former t»L the works still prove In­
adequate to supply the number of effectiye fire streams called for by the
contract. This stipulates that three
one inch streams shall be thrown
through one hundred feet of hose. 150
feet horizontally and 100 feel perpen­
dicularly, with either pump.
The
test of yesterday lacked fifteen or
twenty feet of reaching the required
distance, and thirty to forty feet of
going the required height, although a
strong wind bad considerable to do
with this.
The pumps, however,
labored very hard to do this, pounding
at times alarmingly,
which they
ought not to do.
Mr. Hughes is now at work over­
hauling the pumps, to see if there Is
any trouble with them, but seems to
be of the opinion that the trouble lies
in the small size of the suction pljx.-,
which Is but eight inches in diameter.
It may lie found necessary to take
out this pipe and put in a larger one,
in order to give sufficient water to
supply the pumps.
.
The contractors, the Lansing En­
gine and Iron Worts, seem to be dis-,
posed to make the system satisfactory,
and we believe they will do s»i. Cer­
tainly if they expect to continue In
the water works business in Michigan
they should do so for their own bene­
fit, and the board of water commlsaloneqs will continue to give them
every opportunity to comply with
their contract.

CHArtER VII—Continued-

"W* will not dispute tho point I be­
lieve you Jove me in your way, not a I
very unaclflah or disinterested way.
You found me there in S'conset. Tbe
place wm dull and lonely to you. For
mim unexplained reason you enjoyed
my society. You thought it an excellent
■ opportunity lo try your arts of fascina­
tion on a girl who, so far as you knew,
would place Implicit trust in your hon­
esty Of purpose. Please lot mo finish.
I am speaking truth, nothing more. The
pastime amused you and gratified your
vanity at the same time. You know
that she might learn to like you. There
was no reason why she might not give
her heart and her future happiness in
your keeping. You realized this, yet
you staid on, sail knowing you hod no
intention of marrying her. And when
you had tlrei of the diversion, you in­
sulted her with a declaration of love
and no proposal of marriage.
You
allowed a sordid motive to cheat your
heart of its noblest instincts. You-----’ Oh, I wonder I can bay so much! There
are times when I positively despise you,
and others when—I believe I am los­
ing my self-respect. I wish you bud
never gone to S’conset."
She started from her chair and walked
to the opposite window. Her hands
trembled nervously, though her words
had not been uttered with pasaion, but
with a slow, deliberate emphasis that
gave them accusing force.
Brian hud listened with bowed .head.
Only once he had tried to Interrupt her,
then she had silenced him with a mo­
tion. Even after she had paused ho
did not speak for some seconds.
“You are hard upon mc,“hesaid, at
last. “I acted contemptibly, but won’t
..
you try to think there was . aomo little
excuse.' I don’t know why I am such a
worthless fellow. Perhaps because no
one cares whether I ever amount to
anything or not. I have not been so
fortunate ns you. You have been loved
and praised all your life. I have had
discouragement and condemnation on
all sides. Perhaps I deserved so much,
but it disheartens n man to be forever
running him down."
Her face softened as she answered in
a gentler tone: "They are wrong to dis­
courage and condemn you. No ono
knows their possibilities (or good or
evil until they have been tried.. There
are redeeming traits even in tbe worst,
and you are hot ono of tho worst. Your
chance is before you. I want to forget
all that has happened. For your sane,
and for mine. 1 wish to feel------ " She
hesitated and her face grew crimson.
Not so much from his glance as from
the drift of her own thoughts.
"Why won’t you understand!" she
Cried, In helpless embarrassment,-after
a silence that was almost felt. “Why
can’t you comprehend that I want you
to have what belongs to you?"
“I don't xvant it," answered Brian,
with dogged resistance. "Tho thought
of that money Is always between us."
“You don’t want it because you can’t
have it without uu incumbrance, I sup­
pose?"
“If the incumbrance means you, Mar­
garet, there is nothing I desire so much
as tho incumbrance.”
"Then take it, please, Brian. The In­
cumbrance finds you so slow of compre' hens!on.”
. Brian was slow no longer. Margaret's
.
meaning flashed upon him, and with a
joyful face and glad cry ho started to­
ward her.
.
But she stopped him rather precipi­
tately with the words:
"Don't be foolish, Brian, please. I
want you to understand that this Is
merely a business arrangement. Wo
shan’t be very affectionate, but neither
■ need we quarrel."
"Thon you wish simply to satisfy your
sense of obligation," he said, rather rue­
fully. "You don’t care for me tho least
bit, Margaret?”
"If caring for you means giving j ou my
heart, I can only say I haven’t it to give.
I think you need not complain. Mar­
riage will not make a great difference In
our love.
We shall always bo good
friends. I hope. Are you satisfied?"
"I am happy to get you on any terms,"
Ko responded, “l or no other man can
ever Claim you. And maybe some day
you will learn to love me, if only u

'

“Don’t delude yourself with any such
idea. That is all, 1 believe. Pjcaso
leave me now."
"How cold and indifferent you are,"
he said, turning to obey her request.
“You make it very hard for me."
Her eyes drooped beneath tho Inten­
sity of his gaze, but she male no re­
mark, and the next second ho had left
her to her own thought*.
•
In a somewhat jubilant but rather pe•ultar frame of mind ho sought Miss
Hitton, and confided to her sympathetic
ear his late go -d fortune.
Two hoars later, as Margaret sat
alone In one corner of the veranda,
Brian stole up behind her chair; and
dropped Ln her lap a ring of old-fashioned
deairn and exquisite workmanship.
.
"Here Is something I prize very high­
ly." ho said. "It belonged to my mother.

A MAN IN SKIRTS

A large, broad-shouldered man attired In a
handsome black silk skirt baa attracted con­
siderable attention on lhe public strecta of
Detroit during the past few months. When­
ever he was observed people stood still, waited

and why be wore a dresa. The man’s bead
was large and well-formed ana bls’ features
w^re plain and bls countenance had a refined
appearance. A silk tile surmounted hl* bead
and be always carried a walking stick. |Wben
seen at a distance, be might easily have been
taken for a big, stout equestrienne, who had
dismounted from her horse just for a little
stroll.
This peculiar character one day alighted
from a Congress street car at lhe corner of
Woodward avenue.
He waa making for a
Woodward avenue car, which hod just started.
Nobody seemed to notice him.
Presently
Patrolman Lindsay, who was then a member
of the "Broadway Squad,” and was stationed
at the aboyc named crossing, observed what
he supposed to be a woman running for the
car. With that gallantry for which that of­
ficer I* noted he ran to the supposed woman’*
assistance. Before be reached “her,” how­
ever, tbe man in skirts placed two finders In
his mouth and sent forth three shrill whistle
blasts to the car to stop. Then b-. started on
tbe keen jump for the car and finally overtook
it.
The name of this man in skirts la Reuben
Yearington and he can be found to-day upon
hla farm near Middleville. Barry county, thia
state. Six mouths ago be came to thia city
and sought treatment tar a peculiar deformity
under Eh*. H. O. Walker at Harper hospital.
He wore a dress for his own convenience at
the doctor’s suggestion and be marie as few ex­
cursions outside of the hospital u possible.
He left the institution a few days ago very
much relieved, and Dr. Walker says so lang as
Yearington stays on the fanp he needn’t wear
tbe dress.—Detroit Tribune.

The terror of blackberry pickers
south of Mason and Dixon’s line Is
the cheagre, popularly pn oounced
"jigger." Probably no one has ever
seen a chegre sive under a micro­
scope, and certainly he Is invisible to
his victims, but he can Inflict more
discomfort than the mosquito, or
than any one of a dozen noxious in­
sects twice his size. The cheagre
comes like a thief In the night. No
one Is conscious of his coming and
often his presences not detected for
hours after his arrival, but in due
time the victim is seized with tffrin­
tolerable itching In a dozen spots at
once, and scratching affords only tem­
porary relief. Pimples rise over the
Itching spots nnd are wx»n scraped
raw by the cheagre’s tortured victim.
Meanwhile the invisible enemy keeil:
on burrowing and the Itching conti ♦
lies often for days together. When it
ceases the victim has the unpleasant
consciousness that all is over prob­
ably because the cheagre has died
somewhere lieneatb the pimple.
Frank Newell, a

Texas, in the Choctaw Nation,
ports that on a recent' afternoon a
large meteor fell on the prairie.
It
was imbedded at least twenty feet
in the earth and protrudes twelve
feet in the air. The meteor, when
seen by Newell, appeared in the air
like a monster liail of fire. When
the earth was struck It fairly trem­
bled, and there was a spluttering and
a sizzling like unto a piece of hot iron
dipped into water. The meteoric
stone was as hot as a furnace several
hours after It descended to the earth.
Newell estimates Its weight at sev­
eral tons. The meteor fell about 8
o’clock on the prairie near 'a small
water course called Frick’s Creek.
Newell was on horseback alxiut 500
yards distant. Newell’s ''horse trem­
bled with terror, causing him to dis­
mount. It was not until next morn­
ing that Newell and his neighbora
could approach near the meteor, and
then only to within a distance of
about fifty yards.

It is governed by an everlasting steel coil spring, in­
stead of the usual weight. The advantage of this will be
readily seen by all. It makes the mill lighter and less liable
to get out of order. The platform is free and clear rendering
oiling easier and less dangerous. The spring is a much bet­

more than any other standard mill.
The sails of the Shields mill are put in on a twist, the
angle of the sail at its inner end being double that at the
outer end. This allows the wind to pass freely through the
wheel at all points, obviating all back pressure and causing
this mill to run in a lighter wind than any mill built
The turn table of the Shields mill is suspended in the
tower, being stronger and subject to less frictign than those
set on a cap on top of the tower. It is made in the form of
j
a cup into which fits the lower end of the' main spindle. The

is fitted accurately into the turn-table, making the most easy
working joint known in any mill; and unlike ball and roll
bearings, which grove and become flat with use, our bearing
wears smoother year by year, and can never wear out
The turn table or step is perfectly adjustable, laterally
and perpendicularly, sd that the mill may be perfectly
plumbed, no matter if the tower be not. Almost every
tower settles to one side or the other after being in portion
for a short length of time. This makes no difference with,
the Shields mill, as it can be set “square with the world” in
a very short time by loosening one bolt and tightening an­
other.
It can not blow off the tower, as a 2 j-inch gas-pipe runs
dpwtt to the turn table, which is 20 inches below the- top of
the tower. This pipe is cast solidly into the head .or main,
frame of the mill.

It has the most simple and direct action possible from the
wheel to the pumping rod, and is so connected that it has a
peculiar advantage in lifting.

The safety from weights, the ease of facing tp the wind;
the overcoming of the back pressure, thus giving more power

purchaser of a windmill, and which the Shields twist-sail

impeded the aiiiftr of CUutnbus Ml
years ago. acenrfllng to the London
Globe, hits been lhe subject- of careful
study by Dr. Krummel, a German
mareographer, who takes a different
view of its origin from that commonly
accepted. He shows, to begin with,
that tbe sea is much more extensive
than Humboldt supposed.
The mid­
dle or thickest part is elliptical In
form, the great axis lying along the
Tropie of Cancer and tbe fool at forty­
fl vc degrees and seventy degrees west
longitude. Around this are more ex­
tensive but thinner accumulations of
the weed, which vary with the pre­
vailing winds.
’
The gulf weed, which, with Its little
round •‘berries,” is not unlike the
mlrtletoe in form, but of a brownishyellow color, has been thought to have
lost its property of rooting on rocks
and to have -acquired the power of
living afloat. It hat even been sug­
gested that the sen lharks tbe sight
of a submerged continent, apparently
the lost Atlantis. Dr. Krummel holds
that the weed has simply been drifted
to its present position by the Gulf
Stream and its affluents from the
West Indian Islands and the Gulf of
Mexico. It Is now proved that the
Gulfstream is not a single narrow
“river of the ocean.” as Maury poeti­
cally described it, but consists of a
number of currents, not ojily from the
Mexican Gulf, but the Antilles. The
weed, according to Dr. Krummelwould take fifteen days to float as fa,
north as the latitude of Cape Hattenu
aun five and a half months to reach
the Azores. In the Sargasso Sea it
becomes heavy and sinks: but the sup
ply Is. kept up by the Gulf stream*
Dr. Krummel is certainly right in
giving the Sargasso Sea a much wider
area than Humboldt did and than our
maps usually portrayH has been
encountered some two or three hund­
red miles northeast of Barbadocs; but
whether the weed is solely carried
from tbe West Indies and the .Gin f .Is
perhaps open to doubt.
After all, there are very lew girls as
pretty as a dollar.
The world Is kind to those who are
ju-t coming into fashion, and forget­
ful of those who are going out, but
those going out deserve the kindness.
Thg old girl whose dancing compan­
ions have-ail married b.* moved away,
and who is going out of fashion, Is the
one 4'ho should receive the polite at­
tentions that are wasted on the pert
little girl who is coming in.

population of this town will begin to ar­
rive. By tho next day, so rapid will be
tho growth, the high-water mark in the
population will b.&lt; reached.
A HuaUIng Short-Lived Town.

The town will continue te’fiourish and
will no doubt lie an exceedingly bust­
ling place, and then in tho course .of
four or five days an exodus will begin
which will leave the place without a
single inhabitant. All this sounds like
a tale from n fairy book. But it is asober fact. The only magician in tho
case is the enterprise of the business
men of tho city which has provided tho
buildings for a portion of tho great mul­
titude of old soldiers who will come
hero to attend the G. A. B. encamp­
ment.
Just now it is impossible to got an ac­
, curat** Idea of tho immense undertaking
which the citizens’ committee have on
their hands. By tho end of next week
it is expected that tho buildings will be
completed. Then there will be seen
seven principal buildings grouped along
tho curving driveway which Is on tho
south islde of the Washington monu­
ment A line ot trees and clusters of
shrubbery will partially shut off” the
view of the buildings from B street. All
of the buildings, which are long struct­
ures with sloping roofs covered with tar
paper and a line of openings for ventila­
tion at the ridge, uro built of wood,
with canvas sides, the latter of which
can be raised or lowered as the weather
makes necessary. They have a uniform
width ot 64 feet, and a varying depth of

from 200 to 350 feet. A building of tho
latter size has a capacity for about 2,300
men.

-

The entire group will furnish sleep­
ing quarters for about 15,000 men, and
in the vicinity other buildings will be
put up. where the men can wash, and
also buildings where they can get their
meals In the vicinity space has been
reserved for the members of post* wnlch
bring tents, with the intention of camp­
ing out.
Tho buildings where the men will
sleep are interesting for several reasons.
The great size Is. of course, an element
that will attract the curiosity of the
Kbllc. But their design is such that
ey will cost the minimum amount of
money. There was no plan drawn, but
Chairman Edson, in connection with
Mr. W. C. Morrison, the builder,worked
oat tbe scheme from the basis of a
known number of men that must be pro­
vided with sleeping quarters. In a
figurative way it may to sala that 15,(H 0 men were put into their little beds,
and the size of the buildings necessary
to give them shelter was calculated to
a nicety. While ample room is allowed
for each man, yet there is no wasto
space.
Each building Is divided into two or
three divisions by cross passage ways.
Then aisles are run do wn the length of
the building with a row of bunks on
each side, three high. The bunks are
substantially built, and along each row
is drawn tightly a substantial strip of
canvas. Tbe canvas is brought over a
strip of wood at the head of each bunk,
then fastened down to strips in the in­
side, thus supplying the place of a
bolster. It is then securely fastened to
each side of the bunk, and the same
operation is repeated in the next bunk.
In this way each bunk is supplied with
a spring mattress which will receive the
weary forms of the veterans and cause
them to Oink away into a dreamless
slumber undisturbed by tbe nightmares

"Show me an umbrella,” says a
manufacturer, “that has holes worn
In tho silk about the ring at the top.
while the body of tho material is still
intact throughout, and I will show
you the owner of an umbrella who
doesn’t deserve to own one, not If it
is a good one; and show me an um­
brella that has holes in It along the
ribs before natural use of it should
make them come there, and ‘I will
show you an owner wbo carries his
umbrella more for the .sake of appear­
ance than for utility."
A wet umbrella placed handle down
down drips the moisture from it at
the edges of the frame, and tbe ma­
terial with which it is covered dries
evenly, and leases no spot still soaked
with water. If it is stood handle up­
ward the water runs down to one
spot at the top, where the strong
cloth lining about tbe ring. Isolds a
gooa deal of it, and in a compamivcly short time rots the material, and
it breaks easily.
The man who carries his umbrella
swathed in Its case when it is not
called into use by rain, to give him a
more stylish appearance on parade,
will soon find it wearing out from top
to bottom.
This is because of constant friction
between tbe case and the silk, and no
matter of how good quality it may be,
tbe holes will appear in it long before
they should, and the dealer who sold
the umbrella will of course be blamed
for selling inferior or damaged goods.
There are many people so ignorant of
the proper treatment of an umbrella
that they will actually roll It up when
wet, and leave it to rot and mold un­
til the next time they want-it for
use.
Of course, if It was not for such
thoughtless folks we wouldn't sell so
many umbrellas, but we would escape
a great deal of grumbling and growl­
ing from customers about tbe quality
of what we sell.
If you want your
umbrella, and especially a good silk
one, to last twice as long as It other­
wise would, always leave it loose,
whether In use or not, and dry it
open, with the handle down.—New
York Weekly.

It is governed by an everlasting steel coil spring, in­
stead of the usual weight The advantage of this will be
readily seen by all. It makes the mill lighter and less liable
to get out of order. The platform is free and clearrendering
oiling easier and less dangerous. The spring is a much bet­
ter governor than a weight doing its work with greater
nicety and precision. Weight mills are dangerous.
The
weights have been known to fall from even new mills. Each
year the danger increases. Would you carry a heavy weight
thirty or forty feet above the heads of valuable horses and
cattle, not to speak of the danger to yourself and family,
for IS to 20 years, the average life of a windmill, the dan­
ger increasing every year, for $1.00 per year?
No.
With
the Shields mill you runo such risk, and it costs you no
more than any other standard milt

The sails of the Shields mill are put in on a twist, the
angle of the sail at its inner end being double that at the
outer end. This allows the wind to pass freely through the
wheel at all points, obviating all back pressure and causing
this mill to run in a lighter wind than any mill built
The turn table of the Shields mill is suspended in the
tower, being stronger and subject to less friction than those
set on a cap on top of the tower. It is made in the form of
a cup into which fits the lower end of the main spindle. The
spindle is a section of 24-inch gas-pipe, cast into the main
part or head of the mill. The working end of this spindle
is fitted accurately into the turn table, making the most easyworking joint known in any mill; and unlike ball and roll
bearings, which grove and become flat with use, our bearing
wears smoother year by year, and can never wear out
The turn-table or step is perfectly adjustable, laterally
and perpendicularly, so that the mill may be perfectly
plumbed, no matter if the tower be not Almost every
tower settles to one side or the other after being in position
for a short length of time. This makes no difference with
the Shields mill, as it can be set “square with the world” in
a very short time by loosening one bolt and tightening an­
other.
It can not blow off the tower, as a 2J-inch gas-pipe runs
down to the turn table, which is 20 inches below the top of
the tower. This pipe is cast solidly into the head or main
frame of the mill.
•
It has the most simple and direct action possible from tho
wheel to the pumping rod, and is so connected that it has a
peculiar advantage in lifting.
All oil cups are large, so that tallow can be used in sum­
mer and waste and oil in winter.

It is fully guaranteed to do perfect and satisfactory
work. We claim it is the best windmill in the market, and
stand back of it to do and be what we claim.
The Shields mill is perfectly automatic.
It is giving perfect satisfaction wherever used, and
plenty of unsolicited testimonials attest this fact
The Shields windmill is always built of the best selected

It is simple, direct strong, durable.

The safety from weights, the ease of facing to the wind,
the overcoming of the back pressure, thus giving more power
to the mill, are three pointe of great importance to every
purchaser of a windmill, and which the Shields twist-sail
windmill has to perfection.
Remember that it is fully warranted in every respect by
the manufacturers,

nature of the military operations has
not been determined. The Committee
of Ceremonies has yet to outline a plan,
but there will be a review by President
Harrison, members of tho Cabinet and
foreign representatives. This, at tbe
present time, it is Intended, shall take
place Thursday.

No charge wilt be made for admission
to tho park while the dedicatory cere­
monies are taking place Friday. The
remaining days and Friday after 5
o'clock an adn,iission fee of 50 cents
will be charged.
The fireworks and floats will be of
such magnitude and brilliancy, as well
as so costly, that the Exposition man­
agement decided to charge for tho en­
joyment of these entertainments. .

In Plankinton, South Dakota, the
citizens have organized a Grain Palace
Association. The first palace waa opened
Sept. 29, 1091. The building was eighty
feet square and was located at the head
of Main street, and perhaps excelled
anything of tho character ever before
attempted. The plans for tho palace of
1892 will exceed that of last year, both'
in size of building and art work. Plank­
inton being situated in the center of the
most fertile portion of tho State, enjoys
peculiar advantages for the location of
the “Palaeo."
It is claimed that tho formation of
animals and other designs out of grains
grasses, corn, silk, and other material
far excelled any work of this kind ever
before produced.
Tho Palaeo for 1892 opens September
28 and closes October 8. It is expected
that this exposition wiil be tho means of
showing to tho world what wonderful
crops can bo raised in this State, and
what a grain producer South Dakota
really is, will be ono of considerable
magnitude, larger in fact than any city
in tbe Stato has yet assumed. The
building will bo ono of groat beauty In

handsome decorations on the sides and

of rare beauty. Tho total cost of tho
building and decorations will reach in
amount over $14,000.

Mr. Herbert answered that a f&lt; w

to reassemble tlvo Canadian Cabinet,
the majority of whom were now absent
from tbo capital; and ho inquired of the
Secretary what time would be consid­
ered reasonable for this purpose. Tho
Secretary replied that ho thought tho
Cabinet might bo conveniently called
together and take action within a week

done by tho President in the matter
within that time. Mr. Herbert said he
would communicate Immediately with

Another test was given the-new
water works Tuesday afternoon, In
the presence of Messrs. Luger, of the
Lansing Engine * Iron Works and
Hughes brothers of the Hughes Steam
Pump Co., of Cleveland.
Three
streams were thrown, but only one of
them reached the required distance
and that was thrown with the wind.
The pumps pounded badly and the
test was altogether unsatisfactory.
A conference'was held in the evening
between the contractors and the board
of water commissioners, In which the
latter demanded In plain language
that the works be completed accord­
ing to contract without further delay,
and the contractors expressed their
willingness to fulfill their part of the
contract as soon as possible. They
intimate that the reason the pumps
do not come up to contract is that the
suction pipe is too small, and they
will remove It and put in another with
a diameter of twelve Inches, the size
of the one now In use being but eight.
If the pumps then fall to work satis­
factorily they will be taken out and a
larger set put in their place. They
ask for an extension of time of six
weexs in which to do this, which has
been granted.

NASHVILLE PUGILISTS.

Again our bright village is disturbed,
this time by a disgraceful fight.
Last Saturday evening as the dance
at the opera house was is progress a
couple of young men, who were slight­
ly under the influence of Intoxicants,
got into an altercation, when one of
them politely invited the other Into
the street, which he readilv accepted,
where a lively scrap ensued; and one
one of the contestants, who lived in a
neighboring township, was getting de­
cidedly the worst of it when he broke
loose from the other and ran down
town at a great rate with the other
fellow after him. and a lively foot,
race occurred. While tbev were thus
engaged, another fight had darted In
front of the upera house, but did nut
last long as they were parted. Mean­
while the other two had got as far as
C. M. Putnam’s residence when they
were also parted. Two of the boys
were taken before Justice Wellman
that night and paid tines and costs
amounting to W.45 each; a warrant
was tmmadlaiely issued for the other
two and one of them was brought into
, Justice Wellman's court Monday

If there are people In Mar*, they must

they would probably have wit enough to

"One circumstance," says Profeasor
Proctor, that may at first excite aurpriso is the fast that in a planet so
much farther from the sun than the
world there should exist so close a re-,
semblance to the earth in respect to
climatic relations.
“But if we consider the result* of
Tyudale's researches on the radiation
of heat, and remember that a very mod­
erate increase in the quantity of certain
vapors present in our atmosphere would
suffice to render the climatj of the
earth intolerable through ex ess of heat

Professor Swift cay* that there 1*
certainly something that is mysterious
in the topography of the planet, as
viewed from the earth.
“Some of Its markings," he adds, "are
changeable, and aj pear as clouds, while
others seem stable and are indicative of
solidity. As, however. Mars rotates on

Aside from the discoveries of the
Italian professor, the credit of finding
that Prof. Schiaparelli is cosrect must
be awarded to the famous Lick Ob­
servatory at San Francisco. The money
to build th s magnificent observatory
was furnished by Mr. Lick, and it ho*
well demonstrated his faith that it was
needed by the fact that it has told the
world that Mars is probably another

including the frame and screws, was
about 28 cents for each window.
The results were so satisfactory that
we should have preferred awnings in
hot weather, even though the house
had been provided with blinds, since
the blinds, when closed, shut out the
light and make the interior gloomy,
while awnings admit an abundance
of cheerful light and yet deflect the
heat very satisfactorily.

In the windows of a Broadway
book store was recently exhibited a set
of Pickering’s Shakspeare, in eight
16mo volumes. The books are mas
terpieces of the printer’s and binder’s
aft.. They arc bound in half mo­
rocco, with the corers beautifully
tooled. The volumes caught the eye
of a good old woman, who had no
doubt been seeking bargains in dry
goods stores. She popped into the
place and, pointing at the works,
said to the salesman: “How much
air them Shakspeaies a dozen?"
“Ninety dollars for the set of
eight,” blandly answered the man.
“Ninety—" and she turned and
fled, forgetting her usual, “Well, I
think I’ll call again.”—New York
Tribune.

At the insane asylum on Black­
well’s Island it Is said that when the
insane are flrat committed they are
visited by family and friends. The
friends drop off, but father, mother,
sister* and brother^ return week by
week, month by month. Then the
brothers appear no more. At length
the father leave* to the mother and
sisters the duty of looking after the
afflicted son or daughter. The girls
marry, and husband and babies claim
their time.
Then the day comes
when the mother alone is seen. Year
in and year out, unmindful of the
weather, unheeding the season, comes
the mother.
When she comes no
more they know at the asylum that
she is dead.—Argonaut,

Don't Monkey With the Elevator
Three Beattie men had a ride in the elevator
of tbe Pacific National Bank building at Taco­
ma, ou Thoreday evening, which they will not
soon forget. Col. 1. B. Snow, auperintendent
of agencies of tbe Massachusetts Mutual Life
Insurance company, Manager F. A. Wing and
F. A. Johnson went to the building about 0:30
to call at an office ou tbe thin! story of that
building, aud although the elevator stops run­
ning at 8 o'clock, they found the ddor ajar and
tbe car ou the ground floor.
Seeing nobody around tbqy started to run
tbe machine themselves, Mr. Wing handling
the rope. He had no sooner run it to the
third floor than the car shot upward at such a
rate that all three turned pale. Colonel Snow
desperately grabbed tbe stool, Mr. Johnson
dung to the cage, and Mr. Wing pulled the
rope, but the car did not obey him, and rushed
to the sixth story. Then it bolted down again
with great speed, no amount of manipulation
of the lever affecting its movements. It concontinued to jerk up ard down as though tt
had 8L Vitus' dance, stopping between floors
but never at them for some time. After some
minutes of this torture the car descended to the
ground floor with a bump and its three occu­

At tbe same moment that they stepped od

pression changed to one of as great terror os
their faces wore. Then he explained. After
be bad stopped running the elevator in the
evening some person had been in the habit of
opening the door and riding up and down in
the car just for amusement. Tbe boy deter­
mined to spoil this fun, bad on this particular
evening lain In wait for the Intruder. Leaving
the door, be went down to the pit at tbe bot­
tom of the shaft and awaited tbe villain's com­
ing. He heard three villains come, but sup­
posed they were one, and as soon as they were
started gave the rope a jerk which sent them
heavenward. He continued to persecute them
by jerklug them .up and down, and when he
finally brought them to rest he hurried from
the basement to see bow they liked tbeir fun.
He was staggered to Cud three soln! men in­
stead of one scrubby tioy.
Mr. Wing says he never, never will trv .to
run an elevator again, and tbe boy will take
care that he really has tbe guilty party before
he compels any one to fly between heaven and
earth in terror.—Seattle Fost-IntelBgencer.

that Peter the Great built on the
swamp here when be decided that he
would make this point his capital.
All this was a forest, a marsh and a
wilderness. The Russia of that day,
as the Russia of this, was in the In­
terior, but Peter decided he wanted
to have his capital where he could
look out upon Europe and he called
St. Petersburg his window, and, like
Aladdin, he made it rise upon the
mud in almost a night. He made
■every noble in the empire build a
bouse here. Every boat on the Baltic
and the Russian rivers had to draw a
load of stone to the city, and 40,000
men worked year in jintl year out till
tKe great capital rose.
Fully a gen­
eration after New York'was foundeJ
the wolves howled in the wilderness
on the site of St. Petersburg; now a
city of stone and brick twenty-five
miles In circumferance floats here, as
it were, almost upon the waters,* and
100,000,000 heads bow down to this
as the seat of their ruler. Piles by
the million have been driven down to
make foundations. The great River
Neva Is walled for miles with granite
docks and all tbe streets are paved.
Our public buildings at Washington
arc large, but those of Russia cover
far greater areas. The only things
that compare with them are the
mammoth structures of the Chicago
Exposition, and as to the churches
here, one of them, St. Isaac’s Cathe­
dral, has cost nearly *20,000,000, or
as much as will be the total outlay of
the Exposition.
There are other
churches nearly as expensive, and tbe
whole city has been built without
regard to cost. It fcf almost a Sab­
bath day’s journey to go through
some of these palace's. The winter
palace, on the banks of the Neva,
would spoil the area of a ten-acre
field, and its corridors, if stretched
out, would reach miles. There is a
tradition that some of the unused
rooms were turned into a barnyard
Ly the servants in years, past, and
that when the palace once burned a
cow was hauled out with the furni­
ture. It Is tbe same with private
houses. The people live in flats, and
these flats make up In area what they
lack in height. It takes nearly a
square for the ordinary house, and
the Hotel de 1’Europe, where I am
stopping, has halls which seem to be
a mile long, and I lose myself again
and again going to my room. The
business blocks are big, and there Is
a great bazar here, where hundreds
of merchants have stores facing a
vaulted arcade which covers a vast
area, and which is thronged from
morning till night with thousands of
•hoppers.

Medlcal workers have made man?
curious experiments, but none mote
wonderful than that by which they
ascertained the exact time required
for the blood to make one entire trip
through tbe system, which all stu­
dents of physiology know means a
complete circulation through the
lungs, veins, arteries and the gen­
eral capillary arrangements. Profs.
Dalton, Hering, I’olssenille, Mattuci, and Biake have been the chief
investigators in this line, the first
named having become more eminent
In ibis particular branch of research

to fortify himself with. All the old
echoed anatomists believed that aconsiderable time elapsed, say from three
to nine minutes from the time when
’ 'the blood left the right side of the
heart, traversed the whole system,
and then again returned to the start­
ing point; Dalton has shown that tbe
time is much shorter than was form­
erly generally supposed. The chief
agent used In his experiments was a
salt known to chemists as fer­
rocyanide uf potassium, which can be
readily detected in the blood on ac-

It is governed by an everlasting steel coil spring, in­
stead of the- usual weight. The advantage of this will be
readily seen by alb It makes the mill lighter and less liable
to get out of order. The platform is free and clear rendering
oiling easier and less dangerous. Tho spring is a much bet­
ter governor than a weight, doing its work with greater
nicety and precision. Weight mills are dangerous. The
weights have been known to fall from even new mills. Each
year the danger increases. Would you carry a heavy weight
thirty or forty feet above the heads of valuable horses and
cattle, not to speak of the danger to yourself and family, '
for 18 to 20 years, the average life of a windmill, the dan­
ger increasing every year, for 81.00 per year! No. With
the Shields mill you ru . no sucji risk, and it costs you no ’
more than any other standard mill.
’
The sails of the Shields mill are put in on a twist, the
angle of the sail at its inner end being double that at the
outer end. This allows the wind to pass freely through the
wheel at all points, obviating all back pressure and causing
this mill to run in a lighter wind than any mill built
r
The turn-table of the Shields mill is suspended in the
tower, being stronger and subject to less friction than those .
set on a cap on top of the tower. It is made in the form of
a cup into which fits the lower end of the main spindle. The
spindle is a section of 2J-inch gas-pipe, cast into the main
part or head of the mill. The working end of this spindle
is fitted accurately into the turn-table, making the most easy
working joint known in any mill; and uidike ball and roll
bearings, which grove and become flat with use, our bearing
wears smoother year by year, and can never wear out.
The turn-table or step is perfectly adjustable, laterally
and perpendicularly, so that the mill may be perfectly
plumbed, no matter if the tower be not. Almost every
tower settles to one side or the other after being in position
for a short length of time. This makes no difference with
the Shields mill, as it can be set “square with the world” in
a very short time by loosening one bolt and tightening an­
other.
It can not blow off the tower, as a Si-inch gns-pipe runs
down to the turn table, which is 20 inches below the top of
the tower. This pipe is cast solidly into the head or main
frame of the hiill.
It has the most simple and direct action possible from the
wheel to the pumping rod, and is so connected that it has a
peculiar advantage in lifting.
All oil cujrs are large, so that tallow can be used in sum­
mer and waste and oil in wintefX
It is fully guaranteed to do perfect and satisfactory
work. We claim it is the best windmill in the market, and
stand back of it to do and be what we claim.
.
The Shields mill is perfectly automatic.
It is giving perfect satisfaction wherever used, and
plenty of unsolicited testimonials attest this fact
Tho Shields windmill is always built of the best selected
material.
It is simple, direct, strong, durable.
It it thoroughly well-braced throughout with steel rods.
It is the best and it is also the cheapest.
The safety from weights, the ease of facing to the wind,
the overcoming of the back pressure, thus giving more power
to the mill, are three points of great importance to every
purchaser of a windmill, aud which the Shields twist-sail
windmill has to perfection.
Remember that it is fully warranted in every respect by
the manufacturers,

After this it was not long before
Whittier’s household lyrics gave him
such a hold on the popular heart, as
later, in the struggle for emancipation,
made him a power In the land.
It Is unnecessary to quote from works
so familiar to almost every reader, but
sufilcient to mention such legends as
“Skipper Ireson’s Bide," “The Witch’s
Daughter." “Mary Garvin." Memories,"
"The Playmate," and “Maud Muller."
Probably the' most popular quotation in
poetry is the couplet from “Maud MulFor of all sad word* of tougue or pea.

twelve years the senior of Walt Whit­

and active, aud the most charming per­

mental powers were keen and acute to tho
last He gave but little time of late to
literary effort, his eye being dimmed
and his hand unsteady. His latest lit­
erary production was a poem in the At­
lantic to Dr. Holmes, and the last verso
he wrote was on the occasion of Dr.
Holmes* recent birthday.
’ Mr. Whittier never married. Between
his sister Elizabeth and himself there
existed the rarest and most delicate love
and friendship, which, doubtless, had no
little to do with the poet's inspirations.
His home was broken up at her death
and bls heart suffered in the same mis­
fortune its greatest shock. His niece
came to him at thtf death of bls sister
and always strove to make that great
loss as little felt as possible.
Mr. Whittier was not a rich man, nor
was he poor. About fifty or sixty thou­
sand copies of bls works are sold every
Soar, and on the revenues thus derived
e was ablfl to pass his declining year*
in ease and comfort.
Thu news of the death of John G.
Whittier was received at Haverhill
with universal feelings of sadness and
regret. The city hall bell was struck
eighty four times at 8 o'clock as indi­
cating the age of the deceased, and
flags on the public buildings and school
houses were displayed at half mast aa

patiently the summons to bls final borne.

LETTER OP

President Harrison’s letter accepting
the Republican Presidential nomination
waa made public Monday night. It con­
tains over 10,COO words, is- dated at
Washingtun, and the substance Is as
follows:
.

GXNTL.EMKX—I now avail myself of tho first
period of relief from public du tie* to respond
to the notification which you brought to me on

ident of tbe United Btatae by the .Republican
National Convention recently held at Minne-

The President then at gome length
compares the present ayfltem of banking
and the hfluance of money with that
which prevailed before the withdrawal
of State bank issues, and declares that
the present plan is the safest ever yet
devised.
He touches upon tire commerce upon
the seas and recognizes the fact that
our exports are carried in vessels sail­
ing under foreign flags. Hq says:

The ninth annual report of tho chief of the
bureau of labor statlstioe of tbe State of New
York, a Democratic officer, very recently
issued, strongly corroborates, as to that State,
the facta found by the Senate committee.
In view of this showing it la plain that thia
tariff law has not imposed burdens but con­
ferred benefits on tbe farmer and tbe worktngSome special effects of the act should be no­
ticed. It waa a courageous attempt to rid our
people of a long maintained foreign monopoly
on the production of tin plate, pearl bnttvn*,
silk plush, linens, lace, etc. Onoe or twloe in
our.history the production of tin plate had
b-en attempted, and tbe prices obtained by tbe
Welsh makers would have enabled onr makers
to produce It at a profit. But the Welsh mak­
er* at once cut prices to a point that drove the
American beginners out of the basinets, and
when this waa accomplished again mads their
own prices. A correspondent of tho Industrial
World, the official organ of tho Welsh tin-plate
workers, published at Swansea, in tho issue of
Juno 10, Inin, advisee a new trial of these meth­
ods. Ho says:
"It is clearly the interest of both (employer

The President then Bhows that In this |

mendous commercial strength of our position
is found in the fact that Great Britain and

In considering the motives of Dem­

claims tpat it is able of itself to maintain a
uniform rate of wages without regard to fluc­
tuations in ths supply of and demand for the
products of labor, but it Is confidently claimed
that protective duties strougiy tend to bold
up wages, and are the only barrier against a
reduction to tho European scale.

It is governed by an everlasting steel coil spring, in­
stead of the usual weight. The advantage of this will be
readily Been by all. It makes the mill lighter and less liable
to get out of order. The platform is free and clear rendering
oiling easier and less dangerous. The spring is a much bet­
ter governor than a weight, doing its work with greater
nicety and precision. Weight mills are dangerous. The
weights have been known to fall from exen new mills. Each
year the danger increases. Would you carry a heavy weight
thirty or forty feet above, the heads of valuable horses and
cattle, not to speak of the danger to yourself and family,
for 18 to 20 veal’s, the average life of a windmill, the dan­
ger increasing every year, for SI.00 per year? No. With
the Shields mill you rn i no such risk, rnd it Costs you no
more than any other standard mill.
The sails of the Shields mill are put hi on a twist, the
angle of the sail at its inner end being double that at the*
outer end. This allows the wind to pass freely through the
wheel at all points, obviating all back pressure and causing
this mill to ruti in a lighter wind than any mill built.
The turn-table’of the Shields mill is suspended in the
tower, being stronger and subject Io less friction than Ihose
set on a cap on top of the tower. It is made in the form of
a cup into which fits the lower end of the main spindle. The
spindle is a section of 2$-inch gas-pipe, cast into the main
part or head of the mill. The working end of this spindle
is fitted accurately into the turn-table, making the most easy
working joint known in any mill; and unlike ball and roll
bearings, which grove and become flat with use, our bearing
wears smoother year by year, and can never wear out.
.
The turn table or step is perfectly adjustable, laterally
and perpendicularly, so that the mill may be perfectly
plumbed, no matter if the tower be not. Almost every
tower settles to one side or the other after being in position
for a short length of time. This makes no difference with
the Shields mill, as it can be set “square with the world” in
a very short time by loosening one bolt and tightening an­
other.
.
It can not blow off the tower, as a 2|-inch gas-pipe runs
down to the turn table, which is 20 inches below the top of
the tower. This pipe is cast solidly into the head or main
frame of the mill.
It has the most simple and direct action possible from the
wheel to the pumping rod, and is so connected that it has a
peculiar advantage in lifting.
All oil cups are large, so that tallow can be used in sum­
mer and waste and oil in winter.
It is fully guaranteed to do perfect and satisfactory
work. We claim it is the best windmill in the market, and
stand back of it to do and be what we claim.
The Shields mill is perfectly automatic.
It is giving perfect satisfaction wherever used, and
plenty of unsolicited testimonials attest this fact.
The Shields windmill is always built of the best selected '
material.
It is simple, direct* strong, durable.
It it thoroughly well-braced throughout with steel rods.
It is the best and it is also tlfe cheapest.
The safety from weights, the ease of facing to the wind,
the overcoming of the back pressure, thus givingmorepower
to the mill, aro three points of great importance to every
purchaser of a windmill, and which the Shields twist-sail
windmill has to perfection.
Remember that it is fully warranted in every respect by
the manufacturers,

Th e time of waiting was spent by
Margaret in tbe darkened loom, where
the rector sat by all that remained to
him of a beloved wife. ’
She approached 'the still form and
prei-sed a long kiss on the pale brow.
She felt the rector's burning eyes upon
ber end she heard the hoarse words with
which ha turned to her
"How am I to Hve my life alone?"
She longed for the power to comfort
him. yet all the sympathy she could ex­
press seemed to hold the mockery of
easy consolation.
"There are the children," she said in
a low voice. “Four loving little hearts

leaving tho echo of her prayer behind her, Margaret joined Brlan,. with
the four grave-faced children, upon
whose childish minds the intangible
shadow and silence had made such a sol­
emn Impression.
.
She found It hard to meet the pathetic
inquiry of thuae baby eyoi, and she Was
quite relieved when she could give her
new charges into the kindly care ot tho
surprised Mrs. Davis. After this, she
went to bed and slept for the remainder
of the day, and when dinner time 'ar­

force herself to dress and .'o n Brian."He'll find me rather doleful at best,"
she remarked to the heavy eyes and

the mirror. "1 suppose I must try to be

But her short talk with Elsie, Just be­
fore dinner, did not tend to brighten her
spirits.
The child had spoken to earnestly of
the great care her mother's death had
left upon her, and expreaaed such a pa­
thetic wish to grow bigger so that she
could help papa more, tbat Margaret
found It bard to answer calmly with
those earnest eyes upon her.
'You may be little, Elsie, yet you can

"Little people, and big people, too,

“Poor little tot," commented Brian,
when Margaret repeated this conversa­
tion afier dinner. “Let us not think of
them any more to-n ght, Margaret. Let
us try to be happy. I am so sorry our
Christmas has been clouded. I got you
this little remembrance, and I really

"Only a remembrancer" she asked,

The “Rosetta Stone,” a famous
Egyptian curiosity now in the British
Museum, was discovered In the year
1709 by M. Boussard, a French ex­
plorer, ne-ir Rosetti, a seaport of
Lower Egypt. It is of black basalt,
about forty Inches long by thirty
wide, with three engraved Inscrip­
tions upon its surface. The first of
these Is in Greek, the second is a
conglomeration of hieroglyphics and
, the third is enchorial writing, a sys­
tem used by the Egyptians in record­
ing every-day matters. After years
of laborious research the savants of
Europe ascertained that the three In­
scriptions were three versions of a
degree in honor of Ptolemy Epiphanes
by the priests of Egypt, because he
had remitted their taxes. This won­
derful relic dates back to about the

AROUND HOME.

RAN AWAY WITH A MOWER

Yesterday afternoon Reuben Hyatt,
a farm hand In the employ of Sam
Robinson, several miles northwest of
the village, was cutting clover, driv­
ing a span of colts in front of the ma­
chine for the first time. After several
rounds of the field had been made, the
colte became frightened at the report
of a gun in the neighboring woods and
ran'awav. No one knows Just how
the accident happened, but Hyatt
must have been thrown under the
mower, for he was found in an uncon­
scious condition, with nearly a half of
his scalp torn off. He was taken to
the house and Dra. L. F. Weaver and
R. P. Comfort hastily summoned.
Thev found the skull fractured, in ad­
d it Ion to terrible scalp wounds, but
after several hours' hard work got him
batched up and left him conscious and
feeling better, with good prospects of
ultimate recovery. It is thought from
appearances that the largo wheel of
the mower must have passed over his
head, but h&lt; was fortunate not to have
fallen into the knives, instead of
where he did. Mr. Hyatt is a single
man, about 35 years of age, and has
worked for some time past for the
Mason boys, in Maple Grove, having
only gone to work for Mr. Robinson

telegraph came to Edison, as be once said,
"between two thoughts. ” Eliason received
the hint of the screw propeller as be watehed a

Westinghouse said: "1, too, have a scheme

yeora ago I had never been sick and' was then
In perfect health. I was fully six feet tall,
weighed 180 pounds and was very strong. For
12 years I was tryveling salesmen for a piano
and organ company, and had to do, or at least
did do, a great den! of heavy lifting, got my
meal* very irregularly, and slept in enough
‘•pare beds’ in country bouses to freeze any or­
dinary man to death, or at least give him the
rheumatism. About eight years ago I began
to feel distress In my stomach and contulted
several doctors about IL They all said it was
dyspepsia, and for dyspepsia I was treated by
various doctors In different plrccs, and took
all the patent medicines 1 could bear of that
claimed to be a cure for dyspepsia. But I con­
tinued to grow gradually worse for four years.
Then I began to have pains in my back aud
legs and became conscious that my legs were
getting weak and my step anateadr, and then
1 staggered when I walked. Having received
no benefit from the use of patent medicine*,
and feeling that 1 was constantly growing
worse. I then, upon advise, began the u»e of
electric belt*, pads and all the many differ­
ent kind* of electric appllanoea I could hear of,
and spent hundreds of dollars for them, but
they did me no good.
(Here Mr. Quant
showed the Journal reporter an electric suit of
underwear for which be pa'd &gt;124.) In the
fall of 1883 the doctors advised a change of

as the average Uke of the vessels ISLAND.
engaged in the trade was from eigh­
teen to twenty whales, the returns
were very satisfactory.
- The industry declined, however, s
the whales became less and less nu­
merous, and finally famous old ships
like the Polly Rocket, the Gibson,
the Ice King and the Progress were
pu^ in the coasting trade or leased to
Nova Scotian mackerel fishers, and
the glory of Old Nantucket and New
Bedford faded beyond repair.
Vessels of the Progress build are
no longer used by whalers, for they
could hardly compete with the steam
whalers, of which the Thetis, Bear,
and Alert arc the most approved
types.
Whaling to-day, however,
what there is of it, is combined with
scaling and other fisheries, and the
capture of one of these monsters of
the deep is the exception rather than
the rule.

On the Pacific coast there are sev­
eral points where shore whaling sta­
tions are maintained-and where, as
the whales go up and down the coast
to and from the Arctic seas, the
catches arc sometimes considerable.

Columbus AnniveraarleA
.lust about thia time of year, 400 year* ago
briatopber Columbus beean bla work of de­
stroying ancient tuneratlHons and discovering
a new world. He did tt well, too, for be sailed
on Friday, discovered laud on Friday, did sev­
eral other memorable things on tho same day.
and proved far the second time that tbe land
near the equator waa habitable. He bad
proved it already in bls famous discussion with
the learned council ot Salamanca.
He did not sail August 0, however, or dlacovfe land October 13, aa all the seb ol books say,
ror It was In the 15th century then, and they
eckoned by old style, and serine days must be
added to ever? date to make It square with tbe
almon pure “Jacob Townsend’s Almanac" of
today. President Harrison and the World’s
Columbian exposition managers have properly
recognized this, and we shall celebrate accord­
ingly.
Let ua aay, then, combining the "•tylea,’’
that Columbus sailed from the bar of naltca,
port of Palos, Spain. August 8-12, 1492; saw
the last Old World laud (iu tbe Canary Isles)
September 9-18; observed tbe variation of the
needle for the first time In history 13-22; was
received by Martin A Jonzo Pinzon’s claim that
be saw land on Scgtcmbvr 25-Octobcr 4; was
707 leagues west of the Canaries on October 1­
10; had to encounter a mutiny of the Bailors on
the night of October 10-19 and first saw land at
dawn of October 12-21.
On the preceding evening be had seen a light
which he judged to be carried by some one on
ahoreror raising and falling in a fisherman’s
boat. Hte companions on deck, Pedro Gutier­
res and RdQrigo Sanchez, also raw it, but tt
was at 2 o’clock next morning that the signal
of “Land tn sight’’ was given from the Pinta.
Tbe first man to see It was a sailor named Rod­
rigo de Triana. After two days on the island
Columbus started—October 14-23—to explore
the vicinity, reached tbe next island on the 16­
25. and after various discoveries tended on the
soil of Cuba October SS-November «.
Incidentally It may be added that tobacco
was discovered about November 4-18; that is,
says Columbus, “Certain natives came near
carrying a firebrand, and with leaves of a plant
which they rolled, and putting one end of that
roll in the mouth fired the other and puffed a
great cloud of strong smelling smoke.” Elec­

At last this longing has been cratifled
by holding the National Encampment

For days tho comrades gathered from

small towns, little hamlets and solitary
farmhouses sent their quotas, greater

tendance that no man could closely es­
timate, and one certainly surpassing
any ever before seen in Washington.
The trains arrived !□ so many sections

was laden with comrades and their
wives and sons nnd daughters. Be•ides, there were very many slghtseeis,
not connected with the Grand Army

tacular displays expected to be seen
during the week. All of these people
were taken care of, aa they arrived, by
the members of tbe Reception Commit­

necessarily striking. It -took seven

two days’ procession was thirty miles.
Washington was a very different city

in Belgium, in which the galleries
from » connection of the mint* situ­
ated on both sides of the river, regu­
lar subaqueous tunqels: but more re­
markable are those mines of which
the galleries extend under the ocean,
as is the case with some coal mint* in
England. More remarkable still is
one of the coal mines at Naualmo, on
Departure Bay: beyond Victoria, Brit- j
ish,Columbia. This mine is known'
a* the Wellington, and its galleries
are situated (UM) feet under the surface
of tbe ocean, which here surrounds an
archipelago of islands, very slmimar
to the Thousand Islands, at the head
of tbe St. Lawrence rlter. The length
of the galleries of this mine is contin­
ually increasing, aud extends at pres­
ent six miles under the bottom of the
waters of the Pacific ocean. Nearly
the whole population of the town of
Nanaimo, amounting£o nearly 1,000,
is engaged in the mines, and earns as
much as *3 to M a day.
Liberal as
this appears to be, the cost of living
in that hospitable region is so
high that the miners can only make
ends meet.
A great drawback in
these mlnes.is the excessive amount
of combustible gases, by an explosion
of which, three years ago, 100 miners
lost their lives.
It appears that the coal mines here
are more profitable than The gold
mines, even in Alaska (whereCh'oy a-e
numerous), for the simple reason that
they can be worked the whole year
round, while the gold mines can only
be worked four months in the year, so
that the miners must Hye in idleness
eight months, and that in a country
which cannot produce the necessities
of life, which are all brought from the
United States, and therefore burdened
with heavy freightage. As the miners
cannot be left to starvation during
these eight months, the parties to
whom the mines belong have such an
enormous continual expense to.bear
that the ore has to lie of ft very high
grade to make it pay, so that low
grade ores are not wbrked at all, ex­
cept when other circumstances com­
pensate for it. Such is the case in
the Tradweil mine, on Douglas Island,
which is situated near the shore, where,
water is convenient, and for which
the owners ask 120,000,000; while a
small mine, “The Bear," situated on
the same island, was sold recently for
&gt;1,000,000, while the “Mexico” is so
profitable that it is not for sale, but
the owners are erecting an eighty­
stamp mill.

" Remarkable success is said to have
been attained with a new process for
preserving timber lately introduced
in England. The agent employed is
melted naphthaline, contained in a
tank, in which* the timber is im­
mersed.
The temperature of the
bath is about 200 deg. Fahrenheit or a
little below, and Isevenly maintained,
the heat being derive l from steam
jlipcs, passing through the tank.
The timber is soaked from two to
twelve hours, according to the size
of the piece.
It hi believed that
wood which Is thus thoroughly im­
pregnated with naitbthaline, which
takes the place of the sap and water
it expels, will have peculiar advan­
tage^ in ita susceptibility to polish,
for which merely rubbing with a

When a candidate for the Acade­
mic, De Musset went to pay the cus­
tomary visit to an influential “Im­
mortal," whose chateau was in the
environs of Paris. At the moment
that the poet rang at tbe gate, an ig­
noble whelp of incredible ugliness,
covered with mud, rushed to meet
him with joyous barks, and fawned
upon him to tbe detriment of tbe
joet’s new pantaloons. Disgusted as
l&gt;e Musset was, it would have been
perilous to drive off the Immortal's
faithful dog. so he was compelled to
let the frightful animal lick his
hands, cover him with caresses and
dirt, and precede him to the drawing­
room. A moment later the Academi­
cian entered.
De Musset noticed his
embarrassment, at which he was not
surprised, considering the behavior
of the animal. They adjourned to
the dining-room, followed by the
dog, which, after giving vent to bis
delight by various gambols and barks,
placed two muddy paws on the cloth,
seized the wing of a cold chicken, and
began contentedly to devour it.
“Thai’s the most abominable brute 1
ever heard of." thought De Mus-et,
and continued aloud—“You are fond
of dogs, I see." “Fond of dogs?" ech­
oed the "Immortal." “I hate dogs.”
“But this animal here?" “I have tol­
erated the beast only because it is
yours, sir." “Mine!” said De Musset.
“I thought- It was yours, which alone
prevented me from killing him." The
two men roared with laughter; De
Musset had made a friend. The dog
was spcedily.ejeeted.

A million dollars in currency.
. That was the prize for which Kansas j
train robbers strove. An appalling- loss
of human life was the price they were
will.ng to pay for it.
Passenger train No. 8, on the Atcbleon, Topt‘ka A Santa Fe Rallrbad, east­
bound. waa wrecked early in the morn­
ing threo miles weal of Osage City by
train robbers who hoped by that means
to plunder the express car of $l,000,€0l),
which was i eing transported from the
city of Mexico to Boston.
,
A wrecked train, four men killed, and
thirty-five men, women, and -children
injured are the only result* of the at­
tempted robbery, for the robbers se­
cured not a penny of tho treasure to
capture which they imperiled so many
lives.
Tho wreck and attempted’robbery had
been carefully and deliberately planned.
To avoid the possibility of leaving a clew
behind them the robbers stole the tools
with which they did th'eir dreadful work,
instead of purchasing them. They stole
u crow bar, wrench und sledge hammer
from tho tool house at Barclay, three
miles west of the scene of the wreck,
und with them removed tho fish plate
which joined two rails together, which
would necessarily derail the train. Tho
robbers had evidently selected with care
the spot at which to wreck the train.
They selected the top of n grade, up
which the train would bo obliged to as­
cend, thus lessening its speed and at the
same time lessening tho chances of so
badly wrecking tho train as to bury benoath the debris the treasure they were
seeking. These precautions were un­
availing, and the very thing they sought
to evade thwcrtisd their efforts.
When the train- passed over the weak­
ened track the entire train was
wrecked, with
the
exception
of

cars were piled one on top of the
other above the express car, bu:ying it,

Sy Irenus Powers' was in one of his
I happy moods when we collared him.
i He thought agitation cm the road
question was the starting point In
bringing about any reform in that di­
rection. Our roads require attention
in a different direction altogether,
from what they have received. There
is too much labor on our roads
that don’t *count for anything.
In
some districts there seems'to be a
slight improvement while In others
the roads are about the same year
after year. If we can handle this con­
vict labor safely It would be a benefit
to the country at large to have their
labor on the highways. Have a money
tax and hire the farmers by the day
to come on the road and work the
same as they would want a man to
work In his emyloy.

We fodnd John Barker conversative
on the subject and opposed to anv
radical change. He was opposed to
centralizing authority into the bands
of one man when the people can do
the work among themselves and at a
time of year when they can spare the
time. He pictured to our mind a ring
whose only object would be to squan­
der the people’s meney while the peo­
ple would find themselves powerless to
check tbeinthlevery. “I have never
seen the time I could not draw a load
of wheat to Charlotte.’’said he
We found E. M. Baker Interested In
road reform. He said that some peo­
ple were opposed to public Improve­
ments for the reason that- It costs a
little money. They don’t seem to re­
alize that they are adding that much
to the value of their property. Last
spring, right In front of my house,
teams got stuck in the mud and had
to be pried out.
Wesley Baker-was Cutting corn, but
he cut the subject wide open when he
said that some of the people who op­
posed any change were the very ones
who done tbe loudest kicking when
we had poor roads.
Chancey Baker was nursing a’ sore
throat and it was with some difficulty
that he could express biinself.

in less than ten years.

Walter Mapes would have four com| mlMioners in each township, one forj

We add two more questions on this

5th. What are the weak points in
our present system and if It has any
strong ones what are they?
6th. Will we modify our present

While th© ztructures of the lighthouftba vary greatly, from skeleton­
like frames, with a small house on top,
to gigantic idles of masonry, the lights
themselves are of sefen orders, accord­
ing to power, and of nine •natures."
The orders are numbered from one to
six. inclusive, the sixth order being -th©
feeblest, with a seventh order, inter­
mediate between the third and fourth,
called the "three-and-a-half order."
It being tbe wise policy of the light­
house loard to leave do portion of the

coast unprovided with th© proper num­
ber of lights, so that tbe mariner, in
navigating along the coast. Is never out
of sight of a light by which to tell his
position, it follows that there must be
considerable variety In the characters
of the various lights within large re­
gions to avoid confusion. Accordingly,
we find them of various different “na­
ture.*." The o are: Fixed white, fixed
red. flashing white. Hashtag red, fixed
white varied by whit© flashes, fixed
whit© varied- by red flashes, fixed white
varied hy red and white flashes, flash­
ing red and white, and double lights.
The characters of those are evident
from their titles.
It frequently happens that a light is
badly needed where natural dlfficult'es
of construction or tack of funds prevent
the erection of a light-house. In such
cases the place of the tatter Is filled as
far as possible bye light-vessel,- which
is a strongly bul t vessel, to whose
masts large iron cages are fitted as day
I excons, and lights hoisted at night.
There are thirty-two of these in our
I ght-house establishment, six of which
are kept In reserve, t nd several of them
a e fitted with sound, signs Is for use In
fog.
Tubular lanterns are used almost ex­
clusively on the Mississippi and , tribu­
tary rivers; the proximity at the shore
’not requiring more powerful lights.
There are very few lighted buoys. It
U difficult to light them txoept by­
means of electricity, and electrically
lighted buoys are objectionable owing
to the fact that their brightness is
blinding tt&gt; the eyes of the navigator.
Fog signals are various means of con­
veying by sound DOllce of the proximity of
land. Those In use in the United States
are bells, whistles, bell-buoys, the lat­
ter two. in clear weather, terve the pur­
pose also of ordinary buoys, and will
te referred to in speaking of buoys.
The whistles are operated by Btearn
or by hqk air, and there were eighty-four
of them in use on. our coasts in 1890.
They ore generally simitar to loc'omotive whistles, but. like all sound signals,
are not infallible In their transmission,
owing to.the &lt;rratic transm'sBion and
aberration of sound due to the varying
densifies of fogs. When close by a fog

that in those days dinner tables were

Upon it was placed a large salt-cel­

absence of knives arose from the com­

attached to their girdle. In an early
work, wrltleh by Lydgate—“Rules
for Behavior at Table"—the guests
arc told to bring no knives unscoured

that each one was to keep his own
knife—that is, the one he carried
with him—clean. Among the ancient

startles the spider, who Immediately
drops toward the ground, throwing
out a thread as he goes. The astroiiomer, when the spider has g;&gt;t a little

twisting the wire until he has

Nothing remains for him but to

According to a Chicago correspondent,
none but thoue who have received in­
vitations will be admitted to Jackson
Park DedicatIon Day, Oct. 21. This la
the position at present of the Commit­
tee on Ceretuonlee, and is generally
understood among the directors. The
reason gives for this course is that
there will be more people with invita­
tions than can be satisfactorily handled
that day. Already Secretary Culp, of
the Ceremonies Committee, has been in­
structed to 1MWO50.00 invitations. Most
of these were sent out weeks ago. This
makes the prospective number 100,000
persons. In addition to that the Executive
Committee has ordered that all the paidup subebribers to the capital stock of
the Expoeition have invitations Issued
to -them.
------- ----------------------------------------------It was estimated that 14,000
-subscribers have paid in full, so that an­
other 28,000 persons will
be added to tho

standing room in the building for 35,000

to tbe public it is feared that the multi­

AROUND HOME.

A sad accident occurred at the
Michigan Central depot yesterday
morning which resulted in the death
of one of Nashville’s -most prominent
and wealthy citizens.
Mr. Barnum, generally known as
“Uncle Henry Barnum,” had started
for Hastings, where he expected to
meet his brother, from Woodland, at
the soldiers’ reunion.- He purchased
his ticket and stood talking with
friends on the depot platform when
the train from the west nulled in, the
train going to Hastings being then on
a side-track some distance east of the
depot. Mr. Barnum got on the east­
bound train, probably not noticing
which way it was headed, am? the
train started. It had got nearly op­
posite the other train when Mr. Bar­
num noticed that he was going the
wrong way and rushed out.
The
brakemar. saw him and shouted for
him to wait, at the same time reach­
ing for the signal cord, but Mr. Bar­
num paid no attention to him and
Jumped from the train, which by that
time hud got to moving quite rapidly.
He struck on his feet and pitch**!
headlong, turning as he fdl so that
lhe*hack of his head struck either-the
rail or one of the ties on the side­
track. He lay perfectly still after
falling and a number of people ran up
the track from the depot, while pas­
sengers and trainmen )&gt;oured from
both trains, the east-bound train hav­
ing stopped. He was picked up in an
unconscious condition and carried to
the deiwt, and medical aid hastily
summoned. Dr. R1 P. Oomfort was
first upon the scene and after ascer­
taining that there was a fracture of
the skull ordcred him taken to his
home.
There Doctors Young and
Weaver joined Dr. Comfort and a
careful examination made,.which re­
vealed that there was a bad fracture
of the base of the skull. Everything
possible was done for the unfortunate
man, but all was In vain and in about
an hour from the time of the accident
the Injured man breathed his last,
surrounded by his family and friends.
Mr. Barnum will be sadly missed
from Nashville, where his kindly face
had become a familiar one and where
he wns respected and esteemed by all.
He was a good citizen, interested in
the progress and growth of the vil­
lage, and always ready to assist in a
material way any move which he
deeni-d good for the town of his adop­
tion. By his decease Nashville’ loses
one Of her best citizens, the sorrowing
wife a loving and faithful husband,
and the children a kind and indulgent
father. Of him may well be said
“Well done, tnou good and faithful
eervant. enter thou into the Joys Of‘
thy Lord."

TM Lentz Table Oo.'a Plant la Lighted
by Electricity.

Many of our citizens wended their
way east to “Lentzville" Monday eve­
ning to witness the first trial of the
new electric lights at the shops of lhe
Lentz Table Ou. The lights were
turned on about 7.30 o’clock, and a
very pretty sight indeed the mammoth
buildings make after dark, with bril­
liants lights gleaming from hundreds
of windows, It looks very metropol­
itan, indeed.
The lights are the Edison incandes­
cent, and there are now 5« of them
running every night, while the
dynamo Is of sufficient capacity to fur­
nish 200 lights.
Electric lights are an innovation for
Nashville, but we hope to sec many
more of them here in the near future.
Electricity is at onixs the t&gt;est and
safest of lights, and tbey are not only
better for a factory like the Lentz
establishment, but for stores; streets,
offices and homes as well. When you
visit the Lentz Table Ou.’s works and
see the lights in operation, then you

If the former he is a most wonderful

most successful humbug, and in either
case ho Is by far the most interesting
character in the American pulpit to-day.
I called upon him at his home in Brook­

Dr. Talmage lives in a big, four-slory
brown-stone hpuse, on the corner of
■South Oxford and Calvert streets,
Brooklyn. It is In a good neighborhood,
and the house is perhaps the finest In
the block. Fasting up broad brown-stone
stepe, you enter a wide hall, the floor of
which it f oreclaln-tiled in blue and yel­
low. A black walnut staircase leads
from the right of tide hall to the second
story, and at the left, just opposite this,
is the entrance to the parlor. This par­
lor is al out twenty-live feet long, and
there is another smaller parlor separat­
ed from it by folding doors, at the back.
•It contains as many curiodtles as a
mnscutn. Feautiful pictutes hang upon
the walls, and an old master in oils,
representing "Christ
Casting Out
Devils," hangs just at the left of the
entrance, lhe floors are covered with
Turkish and Persian rugs, which Dr.
Talmage picked up at Damascus at the
time he made the tour through the Holy

Land, and there are swords from Cairo,
tables from Constantinople, rare busts
from Italy, an I at tides of vitro and
curios from all parts of

It is In this par'or that Dr. Talmage
receives his visitors. He Is besieged
with callers, and though he receives al­
most every one, he has to guard his pri­
vacy. His workshop js at Uie top of the
bouse. It is a big room, furnished in
the plainest manner and packed full of
books. There are books on the tables,
in the case* and on the floor. Maga­
zine# are scattered here and there, and
the tables which take up different parts
of the room are littered with manu­
scripts. new#paper clippings and papers.
Not a half dozen urn get into this den
during the year. Dr. Talmage restricts
liaoccupants to himself and his private
secretary. The servants are uot per­
mitted to dean B, and a: long intervals

a great variety of subjects. .

It la the same with our young men. We
are developing a stronger race, and a
bettor race.
This is mentally and
physically. The old saying that there
is no royal road to learning Is a thing of

called a money-making preacher. Do
you think the making of money is iueohipatible-with your profession?"
"If the msking o( money were the
chief end of the profession, I would
»ay ‘yes," replied Dr. Talmage. "And
if it were Dot entirely subordinate and
opart from It, I would also ray yen.
But when pie making ol money comes
entirely from work that does not confliet with the duties ot the pulpit, ard
that, in fact, aids in the work of the
| profession, I would say no. ^During my
&gt; whole ll.'e I have made my preaching
and my church the supremo end of my
worts. I have never made a dollar at
the expense* of my congregational
labors, and 1 have never tried to make
money for money's sake. The oppor­
tunities and tho work have been forced
upon me. I have accepted them, be­
cause, in doing so, I believe that I am.
at the same time, able to do good. I
refuse hundreds of offers for literary
work and lectures, because I have not
the time to give to them, aad if,
as is o'ten so. my prices for such
things are called high, they are forced
upon no one. and they are fixed
in general, not by me, but by bureaus
and agents through whom such business
is dene for me. If I would, I could, I
believe, have such engagements as
would net me $1,000 a day the y«yir
through, and I have now lying on my
study table an offer of $150,c0J forsa se­
ries of lectures. 1 never lecture for less
than $300 or I1.C09 a night, and the lat­
ter is my regular price for the larger
cities. When I charged $1,000 for going
to Chicago to lecture, the fact was mado

n subject of comment by some of (he
newspapers, who said (hat my action
was a mercenary one. Why, 1 cannot
see. I did not ask Chicago to call me
to lecture, and the receipts of tho lec­
ture, which was held in the Auditorium,
were. I understand, $3,000 in excess of
the amount paid me. I get numbers of
requests from small places offering me
$500 a night to lecture. As It is, I can't
accept many of these engngemeutr,
though I try to make one or two trips u
year."
"How do you do such an amount of
work. Doctor? Please tell me some­
thing of your weekly labors." .
* "My weeks vary so that I can hardly
do that," was the reply. "I am engaged
nearly every. day to apeak, lecture or
preach somewhere. I'm editor of the
Christian Herald, and write three col­
umns a week for it. 1 write an article
a week for the Observer, and every
month I prepare an article for the

"Dr. Talmage," said I, "don't you
think the world grows worse as it grows
older?"
"No," replied the preacher, "I do not.

."How about religion and free thought.
Doctor?" said L‘ "The churches seem
to bo growing more liberal every year.
Infidelity is growing in a'l religions
.the world over, and th* tendency seems
to be the breaking down of ail faith."
"You are right in saying that the
churches are becoming more liberal,"
replied Dr. Talmage. "We are getting
closer and closer together every year,
and religion Is becoming more and more
a religion of sympathy and kindness.
We have thousands of real Christians
now wno hardly know they are Chrls’tians. They oannot be called intellec­
tual Christiana, and the purely intel­
lectual Christian — the Christian of
reason rather than faith—is of little
account in tho world anyhow. He is an
Iceberg, and be 1* of good neither to
himself nor to any one else. You speak
of the growing infidelity among the be­
lievers of other rel'gions the world over.'
The tendency of man when be gives up
the Gol of his fathers is for a time to
believe in no God whatever, and It Is
only after a time that he comes around
to study and believe In another religion.
I believe that any religion is better than
no religion, and I believe that the
Christian religion is destined to con­
quer the worlc.. People are surprised
that the church does not advance more
rapidly. They forget that the world, has,
just boon discovered. Our hemisphere
is but a few hundreds of years old, and
Columbus only discovered ‘it* shell.
Asia and Africa have been practically
unknown to vs until now, and they
are still to a great extent undis­
covered. It is tho same with the world
in other respects as in it* geographical
ones. We are just beginning to know
it and its possibilities. Modem inven­
tions are coming In to help us, and we
are now ready for the first time to begin
Jo work in earnest.
"Dr. Talmage, you have been accused

of being a sensationhl preacher. Do
you believe in sensational prearhing?"
"If you call sensational preaching,"
replied the divine, "lhe striving after
striking effects, merely to astonish the
people or to create a stir, it is wrong.
But if sensational preaching is the sen­
sation arising from the presentation of
truth, it is right. Truth is always sur­
prising, and right!y preached. It ought
net to fail to create a sensation. The
opponents of such preaching are often
men who are as heavy In their remarks
as a load ot bricks. They are too-iaxy
or too dull to rise out of the common­
place, and they often vegetate or die of
the dry rot. You ask as to pulpit oratory
to-day. I believe that our preachers are
improving In power as the world goes
on. Our seminaries turn out better men
every year, and they will this year fur­
nish the best crop of young men in their
history."
Leaving the house we then walked
around the block to the Brooklyn Taber­
nacle. It is the biggest church in tho
United States, and Is one of tho finest
ohurches In the world. Its tower of red
brick and stone rises 160 feet from the
ground, audits four comers haveoolums which remind you of the beauties

Standing in the galleries, the scene be­

opposite you is one the largest ever
made. It has four banks of keys. 100

The following is the addrees, "Tho
Meaning of the Four Centuries," pre­
hared by the Youth's Companion for use
i connection with the above pro­
gramme:
The spectacle America presents this
day is without precedent in history.
From ocean to ocean—in city, village,
and countryside—the children of the
Btates are marshaled and maicbing
under the banner of the nation, vnd
with them the people are gathering
around the school house.
Men are recognizing to-day the most
impressive anniversary since Romo
celebrated her thousandth year—tho
400th anniversary of tho stepping of a
hemisphere into tho world's life; four
complete centuries of a new social order;
tho celebration of liberty and enlighten­
ment organized into a civilization.
And while during these hours the
Federal Government of these United
States strikes the keynote of this great
American day that ^ves honor to the
common American institution which
unites us all, we assemble here that we,
too. may exalt the free school that em­
bodies the American principle of univer­
sal enlightenment and equality, the
most characteristic product of the four
centuries of American life.
Four hundred years ago this morning
the Pinta's gun broke the silence and
announced the discovery of this hemi­
sphere.
It was a virgin world. Human life
hitherto upon it had been without algnlflcanco. In the old world for thou­
sands of years c'vilixed men had been
trying experiments In social order.
They had been found • wanting. But
hero was an untouched soil that lay
ready for a new experiment in civilzatlon. All things wore ready. New
forces bad come to light full of over­
turning power in the old world. In the
Dew world they were to work together
with a mighty harmony.
It was for Columbus, propelled by this
fresh life, to reveal ths land wheie
these new forces were to be given spare
for development, and where the awaited
trial of the new civilisation was to be
made.
To-day wp reach our most memorable
milestone. We look backward and we
look forward.
Backward we see the first mustering
of modern Ideas; their long conflict with
old world theories, which were also
transported hither. We see* the stal­
wart men and brave women ose mo­
ment on the shore, then disappearing in
dim forests. We hear the ax. We see
the flame of burning cabins and hear
the cry of tho savage. Wo see the
never ceasing wa^on train always toil*
Ing westward. We behold log cab!ns
becoming villages, then cities.
We.
watch the growth ot institutions out ot
little beginnings—schools becoming an
educational system; meeting bouses
leading up to organic Christianity; town
meetings growing to political move­
ment*; county diA.uMloD8 developing
federal governmenta
We see hardy mon with intense con­
victions, grappling, struggling, often
amid battio smoke, aid some idea char­
acteristic of the new wor!d always
triumphing. We &gt;eo settlements knit­
ting together into a nation with single­
ness ot purpose. We onto the birth of
tbs modern system of industry and
commoroe and its striking forth into
undreamed of wealth, making tho
millions members one of another as
sentiment could never bind. And un­
der it all. and through It all, wo fasten
on certain principle* ever operating
and regnant—the leadership of man­
hood; equal rights for every soul; uni­
versal enlightenment as the source of
progress. Thesa last are the princi­
ples that have shaped America; these
principles are the true Americanism.
We look forward. We are conscious

press reporter has been devoting some time in
a critical investigation of the facta of tbe care.

ferent places, and took all the patent medicines
I could hear of that claimed to be .a cure for
dysjiepala. But I continued to grow gradually
worse for-four years. Then I began to have
pains in my back and legs and became con­
scious that my legs were getting weak and ray
step unsteady, and then I staggered when I
walked. Having received no benefit from the
■ rise of patent medicines, and feeling that I was
constantly growing worse, 1 then, upon advise,
begau tbe use of electric belts, pads, aud all the
many different kinds of electric appliances 1
ceuld bear of, and spent hundreds of dollars
for them, but they did me no good. (Here Mr.
Qnaut »bo&gt;Ted the Journal reporter an electric

•the fall of 1888 the doctors advised a change of
dimate, sei went to Atlanta, Ga., and acted
as agent for the Estey Organ Company. While
there I took a thorough electric treatment, but
it only eeemed to aggravate my disease, and
■tbe only relief I could get from the slurp and
distressing pains was to take morphine. Tbe
pain was so intense at limes that it seemed as
though I could not stand It, and I almost
longed for death as tbe only certain relief. In
-September of 18W ray legs gave out entirely
and my left eye was drawn to one side, to that

so affected my whole nervous system that I
had to give up business. Then I returned to
New York and went the Roosevelt Hospital,
where for months 1 was treated by specIaHstsf
and they pronounced my case locomotor ataxia
and incurable. After I had been under treat­
ment by Prof. Starr and Dr. Ware for four
months, they told me they had done all they
could for me. Then I went to the New York
Hospital ou Fifteenth street, where, upon ex­
amination, they said 1 was incurable and
would not take me in. At the Presbyterian
Hospital they told me the stmc thing. In
March, 186*', I was taken to dt. Peter’s hos­
pital. In Albany, wherSsprof. H. H- Hue frank­
ly told my wife my case was hopeless; that be

After this successful and confirmatory inves­

He hid a courteous reception by* Bister Mary

said she remembered the case uf poor Mr.

womanhood, every young girl needs
the wisest care. Troubles beginning
then may make her whole life mis­
erable. ’
But the troubles that are to be
feared haye a positive remedy. Dr.
Pierce’s Favonte Prescription builds
up and strengthens tbe system, and
regulates and promotes every proper
function. It’s a generous, support­
ing tonic, and a quieting, soothing
nervine—a legitimate mtdicin^ not
a beverage, free from alcohol and
injurious drugs.
It corrects and
cures, safely and surely, all those
delicate ’derangements, weaknesses,
and diseases peculiar to the sex.
A remedy that does cure is one
that can be guarant^d.
That’s
what the proprietors of “Favorite
Prescription” think. If it doesn’t
give satisfaction, in every case for
which it’s recommended, they’ll re­
fund the money. No other medicine
for women is sold on such terms.

In Hungary the annual report of the
Minister of Agriculture states that the
wheat crop may bo considered an aver­
age one, with regard to quantity. As
to the quality, it varies considerably in
different areas. The yield is given ap­
proximately at 137,000,0(0 bushels,
against 124,000,000 in 1891, a surplus of
49}. Fifty-five million bushels are
available for exportation. The greater
part of this will be taken up by Austria.

1dent, of Georgia: Captain Ambrose
8aow, President ot the New York Board
of Trade and Transportation; atul ex­
Governor John 8. Pillsbury, of Minne­
sota. •
The address is supplementary to tho
resolutions adopted by tbo St. Louis
convention, which pointed out tho ad­
vantages of the canal and urged Its con­
struction. ownership and control by tbo
American people rather than the Eng­
lish, French or any other nation. It
takes the position that a canal, joining
the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, should
bo constructed for tho most Important
commercial, strategic and patriotic rea­
sons, and says that the subject of such
a canal is tho most vital connected with
the welfare, growth and prosperity ot
ths United States. It declares that the
only feasible route for such a canal is

by way ot Nicaragua, and points out
that the conventions of tbe two great
political parties have indorsed the
project
It appears that all tho engineers have
agreed in expressing a decided prefer­
ence for the Nicaragua route, because,
among other reasons, only 28} miles of
the entire dbtance ot 16‘•J miles from
the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean through
Nicaragua will have to be excavated.
The other 142J miles consist of Lake
Nicaragua, the San Juan Elver, and de­
pressions in the surface of tho earth.
Lake Nicaragua will constitute a harbor
sufficient to accommodate tho navies
and commerce of the world. It is 110
miles long, CO miles wide, and is 236

tons for seeding and harvesting than
any part of the world, and tho commit­
tee thinks the completion of tho Nica­
ragua Canal is only needed to develop
that country tc ptoiluqtlon of gigantic
proportions and double the population
of the Pacific coast In a few years. The
cotton- growing sections of tho Gulf
States have undergone a depression, and
the committee believe that nothing could
be of'great r immediate advantage than
the canal in relieving that depression,
and making a market for American cot­
ton in Japan, China and Corea, where
already the people are beginning to
manufacture cotton goods by machinery.
Japan imported over 7,000.000 pounds
of American cotton in 18)1, most of
which was shipped from New Orleans
to New York and then by rail to Van­
couver and steamship to Japan.
At present the coal trade ot South
America and tho Pacific coast is mon­
opolized by the English. The commit­
tee thinks that If the Nicaragua Canal
were opened the Alabama and West Vir­
ginia c el would have a decided advan­
tage over English competitors, not to
mention tho enormous-amounts of coal
tho canal company itself would use.
At tho entrance of tho Suez Canal Inst
year l.uCO.iMIO tons of coal was sold.
In competition with England for Pacific
Ocean trade tho Nicaragua Canal would
give American commerce an advantage
of 2,700 miles, while beside tho specific
benefits, tho committee thinks great
general benefits will accrue to the en­
tire Mississippi Valley, tho Hike ports,
and the Atlantic coast Ship building
and tho shipping interests in New En­
gland will receive a new impetus. A
now coasting trade will spring up and
American tonnage on the high seas will
largely increase.
Tho committee says that groat trans­
atlantic powers
are looking with
covetous eyeB toward the Nicaragua
project and tho foreign governments
would very cheerfully and eagerly em­
brace an opportunity to take advantage
of the enterprise with unlimited capital
and prompt energy, but it Conceives it
to be the patriotic an^l political privi­
lege of lhe United States to complete
the canal. The commercial and naval
supremacy of tho nation which might se­
cure control of tho canal .demands im­
peratively that its control should not
pass away from the people of tho Unit­
ed States. It is made plain that two fleets
would be required to block an American
fleet In Nicaragua where one would be
necessary elsewhere.
As a fcothold
from which to attack or defend, to
threaten or protect all the coasts, isl­
ands and adjacent seas, it is a more

The tonnage tributary nbw to the
Nicaragua Canal, and which would
pass through after it# opening, is ovm
6,000,100 tons a year. At $2 per ton,

this would bn 812,000,000 Ln tolls. The
cost of operation and maintenance is
placed at lees than $i,0'N),W0, and
S.lOfl.OOO tons would show a nst income

mittee is confident that, within live

or nut. Tho only question b as to who
shall build it, and who shall control it
when built? It says it has been in­

the United States cannot afford by carele?sneM, hesitation &lt; r neglect to permit
an enterprise of such magnitude and of
such far reaching' advantage to pass
under the control of any foreign com­
pany. "It therefore behooves us," tho

Among the beneficial results foreseen
are a more practical drawing together

The little Princess Maude has all
of her father's liking fora good time,
says the Detroit Free Press. She de­
lights in running and riding and
rowing a boat, all of which she can
do very well. As yet her attention
to books is the result of the desire on
her part to be obedient to her moth­
er’s wishes. She Is a healthy, rosycheeked, brown-eyed child, and is
very fond of lhe companionship of
her father. Some one remarked to
the Prince on one occasion that ho
was often seen with this daughter, to
which he replied: “Oh, j:es, Maude
and I are great chums."
The young Princess VIctoaia, who
is tbe eldest daughter of the Princess
of Wales, is very much like her moth­
er, both in appearance and manner.
She shows her Scandinavian ancestry
in tbe rather remarkable combi nation
of black liair and blue eyes. She is a
very prettj’ girl and a very close stu­
dent, having all of her mother's love
for books. The Queen is said to be

A charming little anecdote of Mr.
Browning’s courtesy is told in Temple
Bar. On one oeraslon Mr. Brown­
ing’s son had hired a room In a neigh­
boring house in which to exhibit his
pictures, and during tho temporary
absence of the artist Mr. Browning
was doing the honors to a roomful of
fashionable friends. He was stand­
ing near the door when an unan­
nounced visitor made her appearance.
Mr. Browning immediately shook
hands with her, when she exclaimed:
“Oh, I beg jour pardon, but please,
sir, I’m the cook. Mr. Barret asked
me to come and sec hU picture?.*’
“And I am very glad to see you,"
said Mr. Browning, with a ready
courtesy. “Take my arm, and I will
show you around."
Canadian officials have been con­
sulting one another in relation to re­
cent seizures of sealers by Russia.
Thus far, state the dispatches, they
are at a loss to kuow what Russia
means. Yet the meaning of Russia
would seem fairly clear to the ordi­
nary understanding. Perhaps the
Canadians construe the seizures as an
invitation to come again and taka
more seals.

Island, named after tho late Gov. Hoff­
man, covers several acres, and can ac­
commodate about 900 people. It con­
tains several germ-proof disinfecting
donultorltles, operated by the sulphur
and steam system, and with these, the
baggage and clothing of Infected irulml grants are thoroughly disinfected.
The cargo of the steamer by which they
arrive is also fumigated with great care.
Suspected Immigrants, as socn as they
roach Hoffman Island, are carefully
washed and scrubbed, and supplied
with fresh clothing.
The water In
which they bathe is disinfected before
It is discharged into tho bay. All of
their food is cooked by steam. The
hospital on Swinburne Island con­
tains accommodations fora large num­
ber, and Its appointments are very
complete. The bodies of those who die
are nt once burned in a crematory that
has been built on the Island.
, To accommodate the overflow from
Hoffman Island a large quarantine
camp was established on the Govern­
ment reservation at Sandy Hook. This
camp was completed In less than a week,
and could accommodate 12,000 people.
The cabin passengers of vessels ar­
riving from Infected ports were de­
tained on the vessels themselves, the
old war ship New Hampshire, ana at
Fire Island.
Tho New Hampshire,
hastily fitted up for the purpose, had
accommodations for several hundred
people. Fire Island, which is not an
island at all, but tbo end of a long, nar­
row strip of land between tho ocean
and the Great South Bay, about forty
miles from New Y'orfr, contains a largo
summer hotel and several cottages, with
splendid accommodations for several
hundred people, and has lust been pur­
chased by tho State of Now York for
tho sum of $310,000.
Following tho
purchase of Fire Island, the baymen
who live thereabouts objected to tho
landing of passengers, on the plea that
it would ruin their trade in fish and oys­
ters; the militia were called out to op­
pose them, hnd for a time bloodshed was
feared, but Id the end the laymen ceased
their opposition.
There is a life-saving station on the
Island and a Western Union signal

same is true of the Pacific coast, where
there was a possibility of the cholera
entering tho country from Siberia. On
both coasts tho life-saving crews wero
instructed to bo on the watch, nnd to
report any vessel that attempted to land
passengers without a proper permit. In
Canada all passengers from Infected
porta were held at Gronso Island, forty
miles from Quebec, for inspection and
disinfection, and immigrants coming
from Canada Into the United States

'Poor Brian. What a stale to be ip.
Don’t shudder any more. The places I
go, anti the jxople I meet, only hurt my

teaches me to appreciate my own good
fortune, and it makes mo feel very re­
gretful to sit here amid so much com­
fort and luxury, and remember the many
victims of the world's injustice. You
could never imagine, Brian, what passlonat! delight that poor little crippled
girl'took In tho few flowers I carried

not help thinking what a revelation a

ing in a small corner ot the earth up

awaking to real actual life. It is a sod
revelation for me. I cannot tell you
how many women I saw to-day. and
how many others I heard of, who sing
tho Song of tie Shirt from daylight to
midnight—to whom ita heart-break
and want are a living reality. How
can we talk ot tho dcmorallxatlon of

su h men, and'calls them fortunate and
successful, because they have made so
much wealth In n few years; but I urn
very much afraid that, if I wero in
their place, I should see a wan, hungry
face on every dollar."
"Isn't that rather severe, Mrs. Leigh?’
Margaret did not meet Wilson's eye
as she answered this question.
"Perhaps it is. I’m afraid I always
express myself too strongly. These
things appeal to mo so forcibly, and
when I feel, I feel intensely."
"Then take my advice and don’t go
among thorn," observed Brian, practi­
cally. “It is not true philosophy to seek
out the dark side of life. This is not
homo, and you cannot be Bure into what
sort of places your wanderings may take
you, or what kind of characters you may
meet"
Margaret was thoughtful a moment
“I do not chance upon much refine­
ment nnd elegance," she said presently;
"but that does not affect me in any way.
I feel that I tculd take the hand of tiro
worst creature on earth and not bo low­
ered. You know I have a prejudice
against those poop'.o whose excessive
goodness shrinks from contort with
others—not always so much worse, only
more unfortunate than themselves.
They are the Pharisees, who thank God
they are not as their neighbors are.

to see the picture of the woman cling­

sister is more helpful and more noble.
It the world thinks otherwise I disagree

Margaret settled back In her chair,
with an air of determination that rather

GAY TIMES IN GOTHAM.
GRANDEST CELEBRATION EVER
SEEN IN THIS COUNTRY.
6.000 persona.
Among those seated
there were Vice Preaident Morton, Sec­
retary of the Treasury Foster, Gov. R.
F. Flower and hta staff, Gov. Tillman,
of South Carolina, United. Marshal
Jacobus and many local officials.
Tho city of New York did the hand­
some thing by the memory of Colum­
bus, and did It right well. The Jews
inaugurated the celebration on Satur­
day, tbelr Babbalh. with song and ser­
mon In their synagogues, of both which
tho subject-matter was Columbus and
tho discovery of America. On Sunday
Protestants and Catholics followed It
up In their churches nnd cathedrals with
religious services, interspersed with the
singing and playing of National hyrrns
—and where can the "Star Spangled
Banner" be heaid more appropriately
than ib the church.
Monday was the schools* day. and
school children of the public, private,
and parodf al school* marched by thou­
sands through the gayly decorated
streets. In the even'ng Mr. B. G.
Pratt’s Innocent cantata, “The Triumph
of Columbus," was song at one hail.
There were concerts In other halls, a
loan exhibition, and a display of .fire­
works at tho East River bridge. Tues­
day the great naval parade took place.
In which American, French, Spanish,
and Italian war vessels, the naval mili­
tia of tbe Slate of New York, municipal
boats, yachts, steamboats; ferryboats,
tugs, and revenue cutters all. took,
part, proceeding from tho
lower
buy up through tho narrows amid
the salutes of the forts, and thence
up the North River to a point opposite
Gen. Grant’s tomb. In the evening
there was a parade of tho Boman Catho­
lic societies, the German singing socie­
ties gave a concert, tho Cathollo aocleties ' had memorial celebration, and
there were displays of flreworks on the
Brooklyn bridge and in tho parks.
Wednesday was the culmination of the
pageant. In the morning there was a
military parade with 20,000 men in lino,
including troops of the regular army,

the naval brigade, State guards, the
Grand Army of tho Republic, volunteer
firemen, German-American societies,
and Italian military organizations. In the
afternoon tho Columbus monument, of
whleh an illustration is given, was dedi­
cated and in the evening there was an
historical parade, during which the city
was splendidly illuminated. Thursday
tho ceremonies closed with a banquet
at the Lenox Lyceum, at which the ora­
tors did their part towards the apotheo­
sis of Christopher Columbus, notwith­
standing tho declaration of Mr. Ward
McAllister, arbiter of New York “Bas­
al, ty," that Christopher was not a gen­
tleman because he did not wear a swal­
low-tail coat, play polo, go coaching,
chase the anise-seed bag, and guzzle
champagne.
The Eastern metropolis rose to the
occasion. Tho arrangements seem to
have been perfect. Tho decorations of
the city were magnificent and the crowds
In attendance immense. It is esti­
mated by the press that not loss than
500,000 strangers wero in tho city dur­
ing tho three days of actual celebration.
Thia is a hint to Chicago of the number
it may be called to provide for at the
actual opening ot tho Columbian Ex­
position.

lhe great parade ot school children in
which, according to telegraphic reports,
nearly 20,000 participated, served to
demonstrate the patriotism of tho ris­
ing generation. As an object lesson
showing tho tremendous Interest cen­
tered in the schools it was a phenom­
enal success. From the wee tot in his
first knickerbockers who camo first to
the college student in mortar board and
gown who closed the spectacle, it was a
series of climaxes driving home the
value of the schools to the cl£y, the
State, nnd tho nation. The Catholic
pupils alone, with their significant ban­
ner, "Tho liefender of the Faith and

the Constitution;" tho Indian students
from Carlisle. Pa., magnificently disci­
plined and drilled; coloredpuptta touch­
ing elbows with white boys; Italians,
Japanese, Chinese, Irish—all marchod
shoulder to shoulder In the enormous
educational columns, and all marched
under tho stars tnd stripes.
In the minds of the beholders the im­
pressiveness of tho occasion centered
upon the union ot these diverse forces

Now York has hid three big naval
parades In recent yean, but neither one
of these as a maritime demonstration
could compare in splendor.and magnifi­

the Columbian exercises. From dawn
the waters of tbo harbor, the bay and
the broad channel qf the Hudson were
literally alive with croft of all sorts and
sizes, from the small yachts trimmed
and draped with gay flags and bunting,
forming cvor-changing pictures as they
darted to and fro in confusing maze, to
the big steamers with their gorgeous
decorations of flags and steamers that
alowly threaded their way among .the
swarms of little boats that surrounded
them on ail sides.
Commodore Erben gave the signal to
start. A stir of pre; aratfen followed in
the squadron, a puff of smoke came
from FdYt Hamilton, then a crash and
the firing began. Boom! Boom! Boom!
Tho • peaceful bombardment sounded
like a naval combat, with all creation as
contestants. Tho Italian. French and
Spanish vessels joined In tbo fun. -Tho
dynamite cruiser Vesuvius added Its
crashing detonation; even tho revenue
cutters with their toy cannons took a
hand. Steaming steadily up-stream the
myriad flcot came in view of tho
Buttery. If tho people ashoro wero
surprised a’, the size ot the naval dem­
onstration, the voyagers of tho fleet
wero astixindol at tho multitudes gath­
ered along the water’s edge. The park
at the Battery, Brooklyn bridge, tho
housetops, business blocks, even tho
very steeples, wero black with specta­
tors. Moving up tho stream tho same
feature presented itself. Every pier
hai Its swarm of Bight-soera; every
warehouse roof was a vantage point.
Cross-trees of vessels at their moor­
ings. telegraph polos, ferryboats, drays,
abandoned hulks, all wero pressed into
the public service.
Incredible as it may Becm In the state­
ment, not less than a million people
must have seen tho parade from both
shores between its start at tho forts
and tUo grand review at Riverside. Old
Now-Yorkere declared that no such
popular Interest In any demonstratipn
has erer been seen in the history of the
city.
When the squadron of the naval re­
serve formed In lino about the Grant
tomb it was a signal for the final review.
The flag-eh'p dropped her anchor and
swung round in the tide. Htr followers
did likewise, and the merchant fleet
steame I past In review up the river,

A delicate, timid-looking, sweet

Yarmouth.
She hadn't traveled

An elderly man

that he did not tmnk It worth while

of her mistake. A fresh youth with
broad-brimmed straw bat lighted a
cigarette and puffed voluminously.
There were fifteen people in tbe
car, old men, middle-aged men,
youths and two boys. Who moved
to tell the little women that sho
was wrong and that she would be
better at ease in the. next cai? asks
the Lewiston Journal. Was It the
thoughtful old age. the dignified and
courteous prime of life or the chlvalrlc youth? It was neither, for one of
tho two little boys, a very pretty,
sweet-faced little fellow, who with
his brother had been sitting behind
their father in the car, arose, went
along and whispered to her, opened
the door and told her where to go.
It was pleasant to sec tho look of
surprise that swept tbe motherly old
face, and the look of gratitude that
followed it, and then, too, it was
most pleasing to see her stoop, as we
did, at the door and, lifting the little
fellow’s chin kiss him softly upon the
mouth. Do you suppose the boy will
'ever forget it?

Here are some of the symptoms:
Headache, obstruction of 'nose, dis­
charges falling into throat, some­

deafness; offensive breath; smell

from it—a perfect and permanent
cure, is Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy.
The worst cases yield to its mild,'

has proved that to its proprietors
— and they’re willing to prove it

ANCIENT 8U8PE81ON BRIDGES.

They Were Erected tn China Oenturlea Before the Christian’ Era.

Suspension bridges which were built
in the time of the Han dynasty (220 B.
C. to 220 A. D.) are still standing,
striking examples of early oriental en­
gineering skill. According tv histor­
ical ami geographical writers of Chiu ;
it was bhang Lleng, Kaen Tsu’s chief
of commands who undertook to con­
struct the first public roads in the
flowery empire. At that time it was
almost Impossible for the province of
Shcose to communicate with the cap­
ital. Lieng took an army often thous­
and workmen and cut great gorges
through the mountains, Alling up tbe
canyons and valleys with the debris
from his excavations. At places where
deep gorges vere traversed by large
and rapid flowing streams he actually
carried out his plan of throwing sus­
pension bridges stretching from cne
slope to lb-, other.
•
These crossings, appropriately styled
“flying bridges’ by the Chinese writ­
ers, are high and dangerous looking io
the extreme. At the present day a
bridge may still be seen In Shense
which is four hundred feet long and Is
stretched over a chasm more than a
thousand feet deep. How those early
engineers erected such a structure
with the tools aud appliances at their
command is a mystery to the Omaha
World-Herald. Most ancient Chinese
bridges are only wide enough to admit
of the passage of two mounted men,
railings on either side serving to in­
sure the traveller’s safety. It Is
thought highly probable that the mlssionalries who first reported on-the
early suspension bridges of China and
who, of course, gave some idea of their
plan of construction, were really the
cause of that unique species of bridge
building being adopted by western natlons. Again we are Impressed with

a hundred thousand opened an event
that will go ringing down tho ages as
tho most brilliant pugo in tho history of
a great and prosperous nation. No such
multiit^lo
ns surged
through
the
streets has Chicago ever before seen.
Political conventions with their crowds
and clamor wore loft far behind, and
tho scene on the down-town thorough­
fares as tho great parade moved off will
bo long xcmembored alike by Chicago­
ans and by tho visitors who thronged
the city.
It was close to tbo noon hour when
the vanguard of stalwart policemen
•purred their restless horses and
wheeled into line. General Milos and
his brilliantly uniformed military aids,
and the more brilliantly xttired civilians
of his staff", came'into view, and pres­
ently tho advance guard of that vast
army of 100,00J mou was in motion.
Eveiywhere along tho line of march tho
distinguished men as well as
tho
organizations
making
tho
most
striking displays were greeted with
vnthuslastio cheering.
Though
tho
sun had
hid
himself
behind
a
bank at clouds, and the sky looked down
with a lowering face upon the moving
display of animation and colors, noth­
ing oould damp the ardor of tho crowd,
and nothing that-was worthy escaped
their notice. Front tho grand stand on
tho Adams street front of tho Govern­
ment Building. Vice President Levi P.
Morton, tho members of the Cabinet,
the Supreme Court, and diplomates from
all tho nations of tho earth witnessed

official and social life, for Governors,

At 1&gt;:1S o’clock the dedicatory parade
wm started.
Gen. Mllea and his staff
came down tile boulevard at the head
of a glittering company of United States
troop*. Tlfc even lines gt yellow
plumes rising and falling .in unison, tho
steady trot of the horses, the quietness
and precision x&gt;l every movement, was
a revelation to spectators unused to
military pageants.
Tho staff of G&lt; n. Mile* was followed
by the mounted band. Thea came troop
after troop of cavalry, presenting a solid
lino twelve deep, extending from carb
to curb. Three troops of white cavalry,
with tanned and bearded faces; a troop
of* Indian cavalry, copper-colored aud
expressionless, and a troop of colored
cavalry, block and smiling—that is the
way they came
After tho cavalry was another mount­
ed band, and then appeared artillery­
men, who rattlod over the uneven cedar
blacks about 13th street at a smart trot
Tho regular artillery were followed by
a batto&lt; of tho National Guard. The
volunteer boys ware not so smart as the
regulars, but they-looked vety business­
like and full of powder.
Tho escort waa not yet finished, for
smoothly and silently came a troop
mounted on whools-4.he Toledo cadets.
Tbo people gave tho sixty men a cheer
as they passed, which seemed well de­
served, for their soldierly appearance
and the even manner In which they
handled their iron steeds wo.-e very
noticatrte.
Tho brilliant escort which had passed
waa none too brilliant for the array of
power, wealth, a&gt;d intellect which was
now-to follow, whexf the Governor* of
tho country and tho men who have
directed tho affairs of tho Exposition
rodn and drove in public parade to tho
dedication of the World’s Fair.
First in tho lino of carriages which
followed tho troqps was tho highest rep­
resentative ot the Government of "tho
United States, Vico President Morton,
and escort. In company with the Vice
President were President Palmer of tho
National World’s Fair Commission and
ex-l’resldent Baker of the World's Fair.
Then followed the Governors of the
different States and other notables, with
their aids and attendants, tho whole
making a glittering and imposing edcctaele that will be remembered as long
aa tho dedication coremonies shall hold
a place in history. The parade marchod
down tho gayly decorated boulevard to
Washington Park, where tho military
review occurred."

of laurel leaves bound with yellow and
terra cotta ribbon. The cheers that fol­
lowed this act b-.ought Miss Harriet
Menrbo, the author, to her feet, and she
also was presented with a like memento,
which she acknowledged by a.graceful
bow and smjle.
Director of Worka Burnham formally
presented the designers, painters, and
sculptors of the Exposition with com­

Mr. Burnham's

acknowledged thia reception by a mod­

report, looking down qpen the waving
of handkerchiefs and smiling, expec­
tant faces.
H. N. Hlginbotham, President of the
Chicago Directory, made tho presenta­
tion of the buildings of the Columbian
Exposition to President T. W. Palmer
of tho Columbian Co.nmisslon. Mr.
Palmer, leaning his hand upon tho dec­
orated stand, listened to the short, terse
talk of Mr. Hlginbotham, and then,
when ho had hypothetically been ten­
dered the documenta, turned and faced
the audience, took a sip ot water and,
delivered his address. Frequent ap­
plause met this speaker, perhaps because
his trained voice penetrated farther
across tho floor space. A short history

When President Dalmer turned to for­
mally make tho presentation, which ho
did to the President of the United States,
Vice President Morton arose. Ata signal
from CoL Davis the audience stood as
one. amid prolonged cheer*.' Vice Presi­
dent Morton, representing President
Harrison, stood half facing the audience

the ground to humanity.
Accepting tho trust on behalf of tho
President of the United States, VI e
President Morton read his speech with
an evident appreciation of the greatness
of the occasion, pausing in effective
period^ and emphasizing tho national
sanction of the Expositian. As he turn oil
to take his chair at tho conclusion, the
Diplomatic Corps rose and stood un­
til ho was seated. That was tho signal
for more enlhusiastie cheering, which
continued until the majestic “Halleluiah
Chorus’* silenced it.

The dedication exercises were com­
menced by the great chorus singing tho
Columbian hymn.
Then came the two greatest features

by the appearance of the troops, which
bad been held in reserve at the grounds
to welcome the parade. Tho coming of
tho troops soon restored order among
the crowd.
The people obeyed with
great good humor when the soldiers,
who had been formed in line down each
side of tho road, ordered them back. In
a few minutes the whole »trotch_of road
unprotected by the police was picketed
by tho troops. After the procession had
passed tho soldiers fell in behind and
formol a rear-guard to tho parade.
When the military parade entered the
grounds over the viaduct it made an al­
most entire circuit before dlsperslng'at
the end of tho park. Then the digni­
taries and Invited guests began to enter
the big Manufactures Building and tho
great procession was over.
Within the Munafacturr* Balidln*.
The scene in the great hall, as
viewed from tho platform
at 10
o’clock, was thrilling. It waa a spec­
tacle that In coming years will mark
on
epoch
In
th'j
march of the
nations of the earth. And when away
on in tho time that Is to come American
history shall .be written, no man In tho
chill ot calm thought will bj able to
paint with words the dedicatory acche.
Does one who was notpresetft gain any
notion ot the meaning ot fifty acres of
packed humanity? Does he get an im­
pression of vastness when he knows
that St. Peters fit Rome might be put
within tho great structure and with
room left? What does it mean to say
that 100,000 peredhs may be comfort­
ably seated and room left for 75,000
more?
The chief decorations In tho groat
building were at the rear of tbe grand
stand and arched over the broad, car­
peted aisle through which the dignita­
ries sought their places on the platform.
From the roof streamers of bunting of
yellow and red and white, drooped down
from tho iron girders to tbe sides of the
great iron arches. There was a back­
ground ot groat flags with the stars and
stripes drawn smoothly at points and
tastefully draped in others, while In the
center an eagle carved irf stone formed
the nucleus of a glorious standard of
colors. On one &lt;iide of this setting,
hanging from away upon one of the iron
arches, depended the banner of Spain.
There was also displayed (or the first
time on a near-by arch the official ban­
ner of the World’s Columbian Exposi­
tion.
Oat upon the great, vast floor, under
the arches and the depending flags, a
forest of chairs had been placed, and

difficult to tell one s^xick from another.
Thon tho natural compression of a
jostling crowd did the rest and they
were molded into that mighty solid
block, filling to the outer limits tho
floor of tho largest building on eaflh.

It was just 1:45 p. m. when the im­
patient crowd caught sight of a glitter­
ing uniform at tbe back of tho broad
stairway leading to th- speakers* stand.
Mil ward Adams, manager of the seating
arrangements, followed tho guard In

proceeded down the stairway before

was the first test of a speaker's voice
before tho multitude, and demonstrated
instantly the futility of any attempt lo
reach mofe than a small section of the
great multitude. Ignorant of the relig­
ious nature of the address, the throng
murmured and rustled until tho swell­
ing wave overwhelmed the speaker’s
vole© and sent his words adrift on a sea
of sounds.
Tho Invocation over. Director General
Davis adjusted his eyo-glasses, tossed
back the gray locks on his forehead and
advanced to tho stand, manuscript in
Land. His trumpet-like voice, his wellknown features and the commanding
office ho represented commanded tho
tumult about him and sent a ripple of
silence far into tho crowd. His address
was a brief recital of national triumphs,
closing with a concise statement of tho
purpose for which tho exposition had
been Inaugurated. Tho simplicity of
tho words and tho exalted thought they
conveyed found a quick response In his
hearers, bringing Interruptions ot ap­

the close.

the front of the stand took.4M» place
before a bewildering tumult of applause
and waving hats and handkerchiefs
from the throng that had risen to grpet
him. Without hesitation, except when
interrupted by applanse, tho speaker
plunged into his subject. His earnest­
ness, the rich tones of his voice,
tho commanding personality of tho man
impressed even those
who could
not catch his words.
Rapidly ho

of tho greatest solemnity. As ho ut­
tered the sentences “God bless tho

sky sent a flash of sunlight through tho
curved roof that centered on tho rugged
figure of the orator, as though a bene­
diction had been vouchsafed in answer
to bis plea. The crowd caught the sug­
gestion and became as still as waiting

mute witnesses to the orator’s power.

As became the dignity of the occasion,
the flreworks display Friday night was
a record breaker. It was probably the
finest pyrotechnic display the world has
ever witnessed.
Properly speaking there were three
displays, the exhibition having boon ar­

centration of groat masses of people at
one point. At each place the fireworks
were exactly alike. Twenty-fivo thou­
sand dollars’ worth of rockets and fire­
pictures glowed and sizzled at Washing­
ton, Lincoln and Garfield parks. The
programme in each park was the same
and included about everything that
could go up or go off. from the wellknown sky-rockeis—which on this occa­
sion roared In flocks of 5.C00—to huge
bombs, weighing 110 pounds, which

Thia will be a severe storm, and at

Tho cool wave will cross the Western

“Marriage is the only game of chance
which It is possible for both players to
lose,” said 1). C. Goodwin, a confirmed
bachelor who scorns matrimonial joys

both sides—after a world of sugar
coated deception and premeditated
misdeeds, one wins a blank and the
other a booby. After long and skill­
full angling In the matrimonial pool
one lands a stingarec and the other a

wondering why tho rebellious color
should fly to her face in such a disa­
greeable way.
"When did you got my ineBfage, Mar­
garet?" he asked.
“About 4 o’clock, I think. I was
sorry you could not come home to diqner. You have had some, of course?"
"I had an apology for one," -he re­
turned. “I hadn't time for any other;
so many important cases brought In to­

great deal to me, I tell you. I was
getting rusty, nnd it baa polished me up
considerably. I suppose Miss Hilton

“She went early this afternoon."
This answer was given with a falter­
ing voice.

“Dear Margaret," he said with feel­
ing, 'I know how you will miss her. I
wish you would let mo comfort you.
Don’t go away.
“Only for a few minutes," she an­
swered hastily. “I am coming back. “
True to her promise she returned

"Only some cake and coffee," sho
said, “to make up for that apology for a

“Willi? Its^rngrancc is suUcicntly

hands. "I'm just beginning to realize
that I am hungry. Yju will help me to

“Of course," laughed Margaret. “I
want to show my appreciation of culi­

nice, and it we had some Elmwood

You llko it? I am glad. I want you to

came In."
“I am the least bit anxious about you.
I fear you are losing the old strength
you used to boast of. Don’t shako your
head so decidedly, I see with an ex­
perienced eye. I saw how that ring
slipped about when you were pouring
this coffee, and seven months ago,
when I put it there, Margaret, it was
very tight and snug. I want to see it
so again. You need tho. ountry breezes.
I know that Elmwood is the magical
med cine which your case demands, and
if I prescribe it, I don't believe you
will find it so bitter to take."
"And you." she askol, after a mo­
ment’s silence.
.
“That is to be just as you say, Mar­
garet." “Thtn,"she returned with a radiant
face, “w-- will both go home."

“I will ncvdfr forget you," was the im­

At 7:30 o’clock Fridaynlght Fire Chief

from Chief James Foley, of Milwaukee,
asking for immediate assistance. Ex­

anything else. The caboose was filled
with fireinen. reporters, and fire-insur­

and wos given a through right of way
from ChieagfPto Milwaukee.
Assistance also came from Konosha,
Racine and other towns near by. In tho

Peculiar Sensations of a Student Far
.Removed from Civilisation.

I am living nt the headquarters of a
subdivision on railway construction,
at the very outskirts of civilization,
about twenty miles from the nearest
station. About ten days ago I went
into the station for a few days. On
my way in I met a young police officer
whom Tknew slightly, on his way out
to take up a post in the Jungle beyond
my headquarters. We had a short
chat. I mentioned, casually, that I
should return “on Monday." This
was on Friday.
In the station I heard incidentally
that the samv officer was 111 at a small
village bet ween Where I met him and
my headquarters, and was coming in
again. To this 1 attached no great
Importance. When leaving the station
to return about midday on Monday I
was seized when a short distance out
with a strong feeling that some one
'was wanting me and that something
was wrong. So strong was it 1 almost
turned back, for I had left my wife In
the station in not the best state of
health.
However, 1 put the apprehension by,
thinking that it was nervousness and
that I was a little “run doWn" with
tWe hot weather. When I got about
twelves miles out I fell in with a camp
of some fellow engineers returning
from survey from a different direction
and was asked by them to remain over
night.
Again I had the feeling that I ought
not to stay, bnt as I kuewof no reason
why I should not remain I put the
feeling by and staid the night. Next
morning 1 heard that the police officer
had l&gt;een carried through In a dhooly,
and that he died Just as he got in.
Now, the inference may seem to
some people to be born of a diseased
imagination, bnt I have little doubt
that the poor fellow who was lying at
hi*? last gaFp was thinking—In an ex­
cited and feverish way perhaps—of
rayself and his last hopes of seeing a
European, and. that he had a strong
desire for me to come to him; that the
thought wave was strong' edbugh to
reach me. and'that had my brain been
attuned to receive it properly and In­
terpret it I should have gone to him.
The theory is in no way vitiated by
the fact that the feeling was transi­
tory, and that the poor fellow's pas­
sing the caiup in the night did not,af­
fect me. By that time he was prob­
ably not in a condition to emanate
thought waves, nor did he know that
f was there.—National Review.

article of diet lading found in the
Journal of Sir Samuel Argole, in that
part devoted to his travels In “the

“In this Journey,” he says, “I 1 Ikewise found a mine of a strange kind
of earth, the virtues of which 1 know
not, but the natives use It for physic
and allege that it cures pain in the
stomach and a variety of sicknesses.”
Even at the present time the poorer
classes of whites la North and SoGtb
Carolina are said to eat clay to such an
extent as to give their complexions a
peculiar greenish hue.
Humboldt, during his explorations
of the Rio Negro, South America, dis­
covered a tribe of Indians "whose
principal food during the rainy season
was a fat, unctuous clay, called ‘bole.”’
there are several Central American
tribes that greedily devour the earth
of anthills, and tbe same may be said
of the negroes of Sierra Leone. In
Germany during the'time of the last
famine an infusorial earth called
“mountain meal” was largely used,

fijithfulcompanion, and, being a very
nervous man, grabbed a chair, sprang

wild animal that was about to spring
upon him, and, throwing the chair at
Schneider, was about to rush off the
stage. Tbe dog emitted a plaintive
ki-yl and English stopped, looked at
bim, advanced to the footlights, and
said impressively: ‘I’ll whip the coyote
that made an Italian sunset bf that
dog.’ ”

A Charlotte dispatch to the Detroit
Tribune of this morning says: “Wil­
kins, the republican candidate for
state senator, gets a plurality of 178 In
Eaton county, but Barry county’s
plurality for Joidan will wipe out
these figures.Wilkins was in this city
this afternoon and Is taking immedi­
ate steps toward .’contesting the vote
for Jordan in this county. It now
transpires that Jordan’s henchmen
were too xealous when they placed bis
name on the democrat, pepulist and
prohibition tickets, for they did so
without the sanction of the pure wa­
ter people. A verbal protest to that
efiect was made before election, and
the Republicans will now push the
matter with affidavits from tne chair­
man of the prohibition county com
mlttee stating that there was no au­
thority for Jordan’s name appearing
on tbo prohibition ticket, and that no
senatorial noanlnatJon was made in
this county by the party. This will
take the prohibition vote from Jordan
and give Wilkins a plurality in this
county that will more than offset his
looses in Barry.

We met Hon. P. T. Colgrove on the
train to-day and asked him how it all
came about. Phil said he dlden1!
know, but lllurstrated the situation
with one of his pat yarns, as follows:
“A gentleman had purchased a parrot
who had acquired the bad habit of
swearing, and was told that he could
cure him of it by whirling his cage
around rapidly and at the same time
throwing water on him. One day
when the bird had become foul­
mouthed, the owner took down his cage
and swung it rapidly over his head, his
wife at the same time deluging the
flying cage w I th cold water. The cage
was hung up agalu and the parrott
shook himself, arranged his bedraggled
feathers, and looking up at his owner,
closed one eye and laconically inquired,
‘Say, Bill, where in h---- 1 were you
when the cyclone struck us?’ ’’

A large crowd was at the opera
house Tuesday night to hear election
returns and the usual exciting scenes
were enacted. As reports came favor­
ing one side or the other, repeated
yells would lift the roof and pandemo­
nium reign supreme. And it was
principally a Democratic pandemo­
nium, after midnight. A few slight
fistic disturbances occurred, but noth­
ing of a serious nature.

Will Loveland got on his perennial
drunk Wednesday evening and im­
proved the occasion by pounding his
wife and her mother. The* noise of
the fracas aroused the neighbors and
Deputy Sheriff W. G. Brooks was sum­
moned.
He stopped the row in
mighty short order, but the wife beg­
ged so hard for her brute of a busband
that he was not arrested.

“I was riding on the engine of a
fast passenger train, and at Waco the
engineer got orders to look out for a
brakeman who was missing from the
freight we were following. He was
supposed to have fallen between the
cars of his train. ‘My. brother Is
breaking on that train. I wonder if
it can be him?" said the fireman.
‘I’ll keep up steam* while you stand
on the pilot and watch out-,’ replied
the engineer. The fireman took his
post In front and we pulled out. Wo

the fireman gave the signal to stop.
The engineer applied the brakes.
They failed to respond, and we were
on a ^own grade apd could not stop.
The missing brakeman was lying on
the track, badly mangled, but con­
scious.
“He raised his hand and frantically
signaled the train, but the great iron
machine went plunging down upon
him at a rate of twenty miles an
hour. The fireman cast one despair­
ing look at the engineer, then sprang
in front of the pilot and hurled bls
wounded brother off the track. But.
he vas net quick enough to save hlmsdf. The engine caught him and
crushed both legs off at the hips. As
we picked him up he said, with a
quiet anile: ‘It’s no .use, boys; I’m
done for. But I saved Nod.’ Wo

hand and clasped that of his brother.

died down and the day bfoke under a

smoke could to seen rising above tho
city, and whUo they did not sweep tbo
business streets, they gave to a distant
view tho appearance of a heavy fog,
rolling under tho wind nnd streaking
cut in long, thin lanners from tto
heart of the city. Near the Northwest­
ern depot the extensive destruction
worked by tho fire became seriously
prominent. From the railway tracks as
far as tho eyo could see through tho
smoke almost tho entire warehouse part
of thp town was a maas of ashes and
broken brick and stono, with here and
these.the skeleton of s wall or a chim­
ney rising dimly out of It through the
clouds. Tho lako waa rolling viciously,
and the line of sccrched breakwator
showed whore tho fire had bitten down
to the edge of the water. For a while
during the fro even tbo piling of this
breakwater was aflame.
From the railroad tracks for blccks a
prosperous part of the town lay smok­
ing. At the limits of the fire-swept dis­
trict thousands of people had gathered
nnd were kept from crowding in by the
policemen and four companies of mili­
tiamen armed with rifles. Inside this
line the tired firemen were still woi king.
Borne of them had been fighting the fire
for a day and a half. They were grimy
from the smoke, and their rubber coats
were cased in cinders. A few of them

The Spanish regard for a fine bull
Is well known. Very often the ani­
mals of the bull-ring arc as famous
as the toreadors. According to a re­
port, in a Spanish paper this regard
for the bull was put to a very new and
singular use in a t »wn In the province
of Toledo recently. An election was
being held in the little town of Oro­
peza, where the ministerialists, or
government party, and the Carlists,
or Spanish “old-liners," were nearly
of equal strength.
Each party,
therefore, was tryinr tn prevent the
other from polling its full vote.
The polling had gone on, without
any apparent majority on either side
until nearly I he end of the day. All
at once all the parties were greatly
interested in the appearance of a
superb bull, led by a countryman, ex­
actly before the door of the voting
booth. Everybody Uok an Interest
in him.
Presently it was observed that as
certain voters approached the door of
the booth the bull made a sudden
lunge toward them. This frightened
them so that they took to their heels,
and did not dare to approach tbe
door again.
But when certain other voters
came up, the bull stepped hack po­
litely and let them enter. In course
of time it turned out that all tbe
voters who had been frightened away
were ministerialists, and all those
whose who had been allowed to vote
/rere Carlists.
When it was too late to change
the result, and the Carlfets had car­
ried the day iu Oropesa. it came out
that the supposed countryman was a
Carlist “heeler" in disguise, and that,
by means of a bradilcd stick con­
cealed under his flowing cape, he had
goaded the bull forward 'whenever a
ministerialist appeared, and urge!
him backward when a Carlist hove In

SINKING

OF A SHIF.

A young woman who was on the
North German-Lloyd steamer Saale
when she cut down tbe Norwegian
bark Tortoiseshell on tbe evening of
Aug. 4, off the banks of Newfound­
land, in writing to relatives in New
York, has this to say of the acci­
dent:
“We were al! at dinner when there
came a thud and the ship stepped.
We had been moving very slowly, aud
the shock stopped us, but not with
■enough of a Jerk to spill the wabpr in
the glasses or tip anything over. A
number of people screamed and be­
gan running around.
Somebody
looked out of a port hole, and then
told me to come on deck and see the
other vessel sink.
“It was a magnificent sight Tbe
vessel had all sails seL When we
reached the upper deck all the men
had been rescued, to we could appre­
ciate the sight The beautiful thing
acted as if living. It leaned-flrat to
one jldc and then to the other, rock­
ing like a creature in pain, and then
slowly righted itself, and, trembling
like an aspen, began to slip out of
sight
“There was not a sound on the
Saale except the •hush-hush-hush' of
a little escaping steam. Slowly, and
yet oh, so swiftly, the vessel sank
into tho water, which was blue as
sapphire.- and dimpled as if smiling.
The shipwrecked sailors removed
their caps and sa uted, then remained
uncovered until the last bitoi masts
and rigging had disappeared, and not
a ripple on the surface of the water
betrayed their loss.
“It was only four and a half min­
utes from the time of the coHjsion
until the last thread of sail had dis­
appeared, yet it setemed very long.
It brought tears to the eyes of men
as well as women to see that beauti­
ful ship sftp out of sight as it did.
“But after it was all over, and tbe
Saale began to move again, the greater
number of us went lack to the saloon
and demolished the Gefrorenes. All
lives were saved—except that of 3
dog—so why mourn. Of course if
tbe Tortoiseshell bail hit us amid­
ships the great probability is that
everybody on both vessels would have
died. But .then, the Tortoiseshell
didn't hit us amidships, aud nobody
died."—New York Sun.

been the theme of nn Interesting re­
port of the United States Consul a'

in the world. Workingmen live and

workingmen anywhere.
The daily fare of an Amoy work­
ingman and ILs cost to him are about
as follows: One and a half pounds of
rice, costing three cenis; one ounce
of meat, one ounce of tlsh, two ounces
of sbell-Osh, one cent altogether;
one pound of - cabbage or other vege­
table, one cent; fuel, salt and oil,
one cent; total, six cents.
This Is much better fare than many

SUPERVISORS’ PROCEEDINGS.

On motion the chair appointed a
committee of -fife to look over the
grounds iu reference to the location of
new court house and jail. The chair
appointed as such committee Messrs.
Hughes, HUI, Falconer, Nye and Otis.
The resolution presented by Mr.
Williams, was here taken from the
table, whereupon Mr. Williams with­
drew the resolution. Moved by Mr.
Perkins that the report of the visiting
committee be adopted. The following
is the report:
To TriE Honorable Board or Sup­
ervisors.
Gentlemen:
Yqur special committee appointed
to ylsit different counties lq the state
for the purpose of devising or adopt­
ing some plan or plans for the build­
ing of a court house and jail for Barry
county -would respectfully report as
follows: We have visited the counties
of Allegan, Muskegon,. Mecosta, Isa­
bella, Livingston, Ionia and Branch
and in all of the county buildings
we visited we find some objections!
However your committee are unani­
mous in their opinions that the court
house in Livingston county is the
best, considering the cost, of any
we have visited. They have a court
houee nicely arranged, plenty of ro&lt;m,
and finely finished. We arc of the
opinion that sume changes might be
made in its construction that would
add to the beauty and not add mater­
ially to the cost, and we are of the
opinion that Barry county can build a
court house equally at good for tbe
sum voted, viz: 144,000.
We would therefore recommend
that your building committee be
authorized to adopt apian for court
house somewhat similar &gt;to the one in
Livingston county.unless the building
committee see some plans that in
their opinion would be better. As to
the building of a Jail, we have no rec­
ommendations to make other than to
leave whole matter to tbe building
committee.
All of which is respectfully submit­
ted.

Orson Swift.

DAHOMEY'S CRUEL POWER IS
AT LAST ENDED.

bloodthirsty king of

pose »f his power and

Innumerable Insults from tho Dahomeyan savage did the home government de­
cide to go to war. In Juno the French
Chamber of Deputies voted $7C0,C00 for
tho equipment of a force sufficiently
large to give this black bully a thrash­
ing which would' inspire respect for
Franco and Impress him with hl®
own insignificance. Accordingly the
European nnd other governments
wore notified that tho slave coast
was under blockade to prevent tho Im­
portation of supplies and ammunition.
It might t&gt;e stated bore that France
without doubt will call upon the Gor­
man Government to explain some seri­
ous infringements on tho laws ‘govern­
ing neutral powers. The French claim
that King Behanzin, besides the 2.000
rifles allowed him by treaty, has almost
an equal number of Wln,ch&gt;sler and
other repeating rifles that have been
furnished him ly German traders. It
1h known that ho has a largo supply of
ammunition and that it was landed in

ful oraporlions. He imagined himself
able to dictate his own terms to Fraqce
and utterly d srogardod his former
agreements to respect the French pro­
tectorate at Porto Novo. M hen the
icpresentotlve of France sent messen­
gers to Abomey to expostulate with him,
asking that he desist from sending his
amazons on their slave-capturing raids
Into French territory, ho had tho
audacity to cut off tho heads of the mes­
sengers and return them in a basket by
a Dg.homeyan warrior together with an
insulting letter 'n which the French
Governor was told that Behanzin of Daomey would sweep the ’French forces
and their followers Into tho sea should
ho eo choose, and, furthermore, that
tho raids would bo continued at his
pleasure. Ic was this note, which was
sent to Paris, that caused France to
moke up Its mind that it was time to
assort ite supremacy and teach this in­
solent petty tyrant a lesson which ho
would never f. rgot.

Interest of tho anthropologist, but the
chief Interest tbe world takes in them
now is confined to the hope that they
will not be allowed mu h longer to
practice the awful enormities for which
tlioy have become lamous. To kill and

The office of executioner is a post of
honor to which only tho richest of the
land dare aspire, and, as a matter of
course, tho wealthier tho executioner
tho better the opportunity for satisfy­
ing his brutal Instincts. There is no
doubt whatever that Franco will crush
tbe kingdom of Dahomey, whether it bo
now or la the car’y future, but tho
chances are that Franco may yet have
some very serious obstacles to over­
come. With all their brutish in­
stincts tbe Dahomey negro Is far
above the ordinary intelligence of tho
common African black. He wifi fight
until he falls and so will his sisters, for
the amazons, or women ^warriors of

There is no argument valid upon a
premise of Inherent impossibility. It
used to be concluded beyond question
that there were no black swans, be­
cause it is impossible to conceive a
black swan. But one harmless and
unconscious black swan from the anti­
podes put all tho ingenious thinkers
to rout Hume argued from bls con­
ception of a true induction that the
major premise must include all possi­
ble cases This he thought conclusive
against a great deal of popular belief.
But what test have' wc of the possi­
ble? It is harder to believe that.wo
have explored and classified the whole
field of knowledge, than that a raven­
ous fish—with no higher and no lower
thought In its meager brain than a
plentiful dinner—should have swal­
lowed and then disgorged a man. Be­
sides, wc are hot without evidence
that such piscine conduct is at least
possible. Jonah was sailing in the
Mediterranean—right along its whole
length—from Joppa, in Palestine, to
Tarshish, in Spain; and It is in this
very sea that even at the present day
a huge fish, the white shark, is found.
And not only this, but the bones of a
much larger species now extinct. For
the word used in the Bible is a gen­
eral term fora large fish, and It In­
cludes in various writers sharks,
tunnies, whales, dolphins, and seals.
This white shark attains such a size
that it has been known t&gt; weigh four
tons and a half. One that was ex­
hibited last century over Europe
weighed nearly two tons, and very
nearly re-enacted the part of Jonah's
fish. A British war vessel was sail­
ing in the Mediterranean when a man
fell overboard. A huge shark in­
stantly rose and the unlucky seaman
disappeared within its mouth. The
captain tired a gun at it from the
deck, and as the shot struck upon Its
back itcast tbe man outagaln and he
was rescued by his companions. They
forthwith harpooned the fish, dried
him, nnd presented him to his In­
tended victim.
In the beginning of this century'a
shark was taken at Surinam, and in
it was discovered the body of a woman
excepting the head. - Instances are
recorded upon good authority of
specimens being found In the same
sea; one with a sea calf in its stom­
ach as big as an ox, another with a
whole horse, and another with two
tunnies and a man. ' That a man
cojld live there for a considerable
time seems by no means impossible.

tho greatest praise. Each of the razor­
women Is attended by a recruit, who
carries a largo oddly shaped pouch, or­
namented with human hair and teeth.
Into this bag the amazon throws tho
heads reeking with bload. A Frenchman
relates that after a recent battle, when

ments. In a score of ways they ac­
custom themselves to ways of life
that leave no margin between income
and outgo. This having gone on un­
til they are twenty-five, it then calls
for more resolution than many of
them command to begin the sacrifices
which accompany the saving of
money. Without money they cannot
marry. Hot a few greatly exaggerate
what it should take two sensible peo­
ple to begin life on, and hastily con­
clude that it would be impossible, on
an income of (1,000, to start in com­
fort. So they put off marriage until
after thirty, or do not marry at all,

remain single. We do not need any,

BUILDING A

PASSENGER

CAR.

A Detailed Detcriptinn of Hue ths Work
Is Arcomptbbrt.

Thirty-five thousand passenger cars
arc now In use on tbe 175,000 wiles of
ralhoad In the United States and Ter­
ritories. and these car# have cost over
two hundred million dollars. A pas­
senger car costs (3,000 to.(S,000. An
outline of the manner in which such
care are built cannot but-be of in­
terest, as this class of car construc­
tion constitutes an important in­
dustry here. When an order is re­
ceived for a given number of canOlt
is accompanied by carefully prepared
drawings of erery detail and by speci­
fications which even enumerate the
quantity and quality of screws, nails,
bolts, castings, trimmings, etc.,
which are to be used. Those un­
familiar with this class of work
would be astonished at the elaborate
nature of the drawings, many pf
them of full size, with ail dimensions
marked on them so that no mistakes
may occur. The specifications ’aim
to contain a clear statement of all
the materials to be used, their quan­
tity, quality and sizes; and the man­
ner in which they arc to be treated
and built into the proposed cars, is
also very carefully described; even the
paint and varnishes arc specified, as
well as the number of coats of each,
and tbe length of time each coat is
to be given to dry. Thus it will be
seen that a ear is first carefully con­
structed in th? mind if the de­
signer and all details put upon
paper, which serve as a guide to those
having the construction in hand.
When an order for cars is placed,
bills of the materials required are
made in each department and pat-’
terns for the iron and wood work arc
made, to guide the foremen in laying
out their portions of the work. As
speedily as possible departments are
furnished with, the raw or finished
materials caned for on their bills
of.materials with which tn make their
portions of the car. As an illustra­
tion, the wood machine shop gets out
from the rough lumber the exact
number of pieces of wcol of every
kind and form called* for, and the
blacksmith shop gets out the forg­
ings required, the bolt department
snakes the exact number of bolts of
various kinds needed, and the brass
foundry tills its order for the neces­
sary trimmings, which trimmings,
when $o specified, are taken in
band by the electro - plating de­
partment and plated with nickel,
silver or gold, as called for. The
glass department cuts the glass,
etches it, and silvers it when re­
quired, and makes and furnishes all
the mirrors. When everything is
ready the prepared materials are de­
livered as needed at the compart­
ments where the cars are to be erect­
ed. First, the bottom materials,
such as sills, lloor-jolsts, flcoring,
draft-timbers, and transoms arrive
and are taken in hand by the bottom­
builders. At the completion of the
bottom of a car, which comprise? the
work of tbe bottom-builders, it is
turned over to the l&gt;ody-bttilders, who
put up the framework and complete
the body of tbe car, their work
consisting of applying posts, brac­
ing, Alling, belt railing, paneling, car­
lining, etc. The car Is now taken by
the roofers, who apply the roof-boards,
moldings, etc., and then the tinner
put on the metal covering. After
a careful inspection the car Is taken
by the outside painters, and is entered
at the same time by the Inside flnlshers, who put in and finish the nice
inside wood-work, which is of the best
kinds of lumber, such as tak. ash,
cherry, mahogany, or vermilion.
The piping for heating and for light­
ing is set in before the seats are
placed in position. The Inside finish,
too, conceals tbe electric wires which
may be called for in the specifica­
tions. Cars arc lighted by oil. gas or
electricity. If by gas, it is carried In
condensed form In tanks underneath
the car, and is conducted to lamps by
suitable piping. Electric lights are
derived from storage batteries, and
from dynamos run in a baggage car,
by steam from the engine.
When the inside wood work is all
in place, and some of this finish com­
prises exquisite carving, the inside
painters go over the entire Interior
wood work, making the car ready for
the trimmers, who place the bronzeor
plated trimmings upon doors, sash,
blinds, and walls. The upholstering,
draperies, scat-coverings, carpets,
etc., which have all been previously
prepared, are now put in, and when
the tlnishlng touches are added by
the equipment department the car is
ready.for delivery to its purchaser, to
whom it is sometimes sent by special
messenger. Parties for whom cars
are building generally keep an in­
spector at the shops to s o that a 1
work and materials are in accordance
with plans and specifications. All
work in the construction department
is carefully subdivided, many differ­
ent gangs of men having their allot­
ted tasks which they perform with
surprising quickness and dexterity.
Mostot this passenger car work is paid
for by piece wages. These car works
have the capacity for turning out
twelve new passenger cars a week.—

We made a short visit Tuesday, to
the poultry yards and packing house
of Downing Bros. &amp; Oo., on the north
side of the river, and were piloted
around the place by B. B. Downing.
We first were taken to the picking
apartments of the.institutlon, where a
a number of men, women and boys
were engaged in stripping the feath­
ers from the fowls, everyone so en­
gaged being an expert at the art, and
they were all making the feathers fly
in great shape. After the feathers
are cleaned from a fowl, it is taken to
a large room, where they are sorted as
to quality and age, and then hung
upon a peg by the bill, where they are
left until packing. We then visited
the poultry yards, which contained
thousands of turkeys, ducks, geese
and chickens, and more coming eveij
hour. The company shipped last
week 22,000 pounds of poultry alone,
besides a large amount of game, etc.,
and expect to ship more than that
this week. They say that they will
undoubtedly ship more poultry out of
this state this fall than any other
firm in the state, and one to visit
their place of business could not doubt
them in the least. After a promise of
a report of their business at the close
of the season, we departed, feelipg am­
ply repaid for our visit.

In trade the rose is very valuable,
as the attars of India and Persia sell
at a very high price, and there are
large districts of ro&lt;e gardens, In
which numbers of men and women
are employed—the harvest months
being March and April; in Turkey,
also, rose farming is largely carried
on, and a very fine Attar is got fr.?m
the roses grown In Cashmere. Kvcn
rose-water Is a luxury which is by no
means to be despised as to price, but
the attar of roses is immensely costly,
as It takes an enormous number of
flowers to distil even a few drops.
The attar is said to have been first
discovered by the favorite wife of
Jehan Jeer, through whole garden
ran a canal of rose-water, on the sur­
face of which the Begum found a few
drops of the precious attar or oil
floating.
The petals of the lea rose, a species
of Noisette with a very fine fra­
grance, are used in China as a flavor­
ing for teas. A mild astringent
syrup Is made from the petals of tbe
French rose; and the hundred-leaved
rose, a variety well known to the
ancients, and originaHy found in the
Caucasus, is also used to make rose­
water and a medicinal syrup. A vin­
egar made from roses is used for
headaches; a conserve of roses and
sugar is given medicinally to chil­
dren, and the fruit or hip is also used'
as a medicinal conserve; while on the
continent dried' hips are used to
flavor soups and stews, and one even
hears of them being preserved tn
sugar or made into a kind of Jelly.
The first cultivated rose is said to
have been planted in Britain In A.-D.
1522. The damask rose was brought
from France in 1673, the moss rose
about 1724, and the China rose some
fifty years later. Wild roses are,
however, natives of all parts of Brit­
ain. In Withering's “British Bot­
any" only five distinct species are
said to be indigenous; but In Hooker
and Arnott’s “British Flora" nineteen
specie! are mentioned, and some
writers on botany raise the number
as high as twenty-four. Certainly
there are very many beautiful varie­
ties of all shades and colors and of
exquisite sweetness to be found in all
parte of the country, which make a
glory in our summer hedgerows, and
give us the brightness of the autumn
dog-berry to gladden tbe fading year.
The Quitman (Ga.) Free Press has
heard two good jokes on lawyers.
One is on Judge Jim Guerry, of Daw*
son. A short time ago an old negro
was up. before the Judge, charged
with some trivial offense.
“Haven’t you a lawyer, old man?’
inquired the Judge.
“No, sab."
“Can’t you get one?"
“No, sah.“
“Don’t you want me to appoint one
to defend you?".
“No, sah; I jes tho’t I’d leab de
case to the ignance ob de co’t."
The other is on tbe legal fraternity
In general. An old farmer was on
his deathbed. He requested that
two lawyers from a neighboring town
be • sent for. When they came he
motioned them to take seats, one on
each side of the bed. He looked
from one to the other for a few mo­
ments, and then with his last breath
exclaimed' “I die content, like my
Savior, between two thieves'."

There is an attorney in town who
is telling of a little experience he
lately had with an odd character from’
the rural districts, says the Minne­
apolis Journal. It seems that tbe
granger went to the lawyer’s office
for the purpose of getting a deed
madj out for some swamp land he
was selling. The listener of woes
heard the old man’s request, and
then, picking up his pen and paper,
he Drocecded to jot down the particu­
lars in the deal. “Your name?" from
the attorney. “Philip Ward," from
the farmer. “What Is your wife’s
name?" “Eliza A. Ward.” “Eliza A.
What does A stand for?" “I don’t
know—never asked her," replied Mr.
Ward, unconcernedly. “Don’t know
your wife** middle name, and you an
old man and married to her for a
good many years, as you say? Why,
this is rich. What’s the reason you
never asked her what her middle
name was?" “Well, sec here, young
fellow,” returned the uninquisitive
Ward, “I’m a pretty independent
cuss—alius have teen and alius in”
tend to be—and tbe fact is, I’m too
independent to ask her."

If two men, or a community of
men. were to set about exchanging
goods and commodities right among
themselves, no matter how long they
traded, they would not get any rich­

out at the little end of the horn, hav­
ing goods of less value than before
“swapping;" all would be out the time
spent In trading. But with ideas it
is different. Ten men start out ex­
changing Ideas, and although some
may have better ideas and more facta
than others, all are benefited by tbe
exchange; no one is in any whit tbe
poorer. The time spent In “swapping"

The ruins of the famous palace of
St Cloud have just been sold at pub­
lic auction. There were only eleven
bidders, and the Imperial resldcoc?,
or what remains of it, fell into the
possession of one Kassel, a contrac­
tor. Hls Lid was 3,325 francs. At
present St. Cloud is an interesting
ruin. The roof is gone and the walls
are tartly demolished. In reality
little remains of it. Its magnificent
reception rooms and the private
apartments of Napoleon III. and
Eugenie are how covered with a rich
collection of wild weeds and shrubs,
the growth of twenty-two years, and
all around are heaps of stones black­
ened by the fire of 1871. Here and
there are fragments of the ornamen­
tal work, the junk that constitutes
the only present value of the once
princely palace.

has found them
worthy of attenUou. Tho demand for
them is great for ornamental purposes.
Dealers, mostly Frenchmen and Belgi­
ans, have established themselves in
many cities of South America for the

humming-birds. From Santa Fe de
Bogota alone many thousands of skins

are annually sent to London and Paris.
The Indiana readily learn tho art
of skinning and preserving them,
and. because of the exceptional
profits to be got by this industry, they
often traverse great distances to.pro­
cure the birds, Residents of many parts
of Brazil employ their slaves In collect­
ing and preparing them for European
markets, and great numbers are ship­
ped from Rio Janeiro, Bahia, and Per­
nambuco. Inmates of the convents are
supplied with many of tho most richly
colored species for the manufacture of
artificial feather flowers. Myriads of
bummers aro also used by the natives
of Mexico in making the wonderful

While invincible against other birds

The humming-birds constitute the
most remarkable feature uf the bird life
uf.the New World. They have ns repre­
sentatives in any other port of the
earth. About 5c0 distinct species are
now known, while others are being
brought to light with almost every fresh
collection made In Mexico, Central
America, or the higher lands of South of whatsoever kind, humming-birds are
sometimes chased by tbe larger species
ot bumble-bees, of which they seldom
take tho least notice, as their superior­
ity of flight is sufficient to enable them
to leave the slow-moving insect far be­
hind. These tiny feathered beings are
readily tamed and soon become accus­
tom) d to the society of human beings,
but they do not long survive confine­
ment. Whether for want of (-efficient
exercise or for some other cause un­
known, they invariably die within a few
weeks. They aro very inquisitive. Ono
of them will sometimes approach like a
flash and poise itself directly in front of
one’s face, its wings vibrating so rapidly
as to appear as a mere haze on each
side of its body, which itself remains so
stationary that the inquiring expression
of its bright black eyes and the outline
of nearly every feather of its compact
little figure can be seen.
But the
sFghtcst demonstration causes it to
vanish so swiftly that the oye can
scarcely trace the line of Its flight. In
sleeping, humming-birds frequently sus­
pend themselvts by the feet, with their
heads flown ward, in the manner of some

The physical energy of force some­
times exerted by tbe human body has
long been known to be of the most,
astounding nature, but no one, prior
to the tabulations made bv Dr.
Buchelster in 1890, ever took the
trouble to put that exerted force be­
fore the people in figures that could
be understood. The doctor “supposes”
things in this way: Suppose a moun­
taineer weighing 108 pounds is mak­
ing the ascent ufli&lt;i peak 7,000 feet
high. To begin with, he must ex­
pend an amount of physical force
equal to that fouud by multiplying
Ills weight by the height to be as­
cended.
In tho case assumed, a
weight of 168 pounds, multiplied by
a height!) of 7.000 feet, equals 1,176,­
000 foot-pounds; or, in other words,
1,176,000 pounds have to be lifted one
foot? But this is not all. The con­
tractions of the muscles of the heart
have to be taken into^iccount, which
Is represented by four foot-pounds of
work with each contraction, the pul­
sations of an adult heart being about
seventy-two per minute; in ascending
heights it Is much greater. But as­
suming 100 beats of the pulse per
minute, for simplicity of calculation,
this would give 400 foot-pounds per
minute, or 24,000 foot-pounds per
hour, or 120,000 foot-pounds for tho
five hours supposed to be required
for ascending the 7,000 feet. For ex­
pansion and contraction of the chest
and other muscles a further item of
30,000 foot-pounds must Im? added.
Thus we And the total work per­
formed during the five hours of moun­
tain-climbing to be equal to 1,326,­
000 foot-pounds, not counting other
forces exerted, which Dr. Buchelster
says will run the grand total up to
1,380,000 font-pounds. — SL Louis

A two years’ study at Glzcb has
convinced Flinders Petrie tbat the
Egyptian stone workers of 4,000 years
ago had a surprising acquaintance
with what have been considered mod­
ern tooli Among the many tools
used by the pyramid builders were
both solid and tubular drills and
straight and circular saws.
The
drills, like those of to-day, were set
with jewels (probably corundum, as
the diamond was very scarce), and
even lathe tools bad such, cutting
edges. So remarkable was the qual­
ity of the tubular drills and the skill
of the workmen that the cutting
marks in hard granite give no Indica­
tion of wear of the tool, while a' cut
of a tenth of an Inch was made In
the hardest rock at each revolution,
and a hole through both the hardest
and softest material was bored per­

Grand Lodge the Scene of a Most
Brutal and Cold-Blooded Murder.

The residents of Grand Ledge were
throwu into a ferment of excitement
Wednesday afternoon-by the discovery
that William Landman, an inoffensive
old citizen past eeventy-flve years of
age, had been fouly murdered either
Monday or Tuesday night.
Landman, who was a wttfower, lived
with a family named Butcher, who
went visiting Sunday and did not re­
turn until Wednesday afternoon.
When they visited Landman’s room
tie was found on the bed dead. Hls
■hands were tied and his overalls had
beer, forced Into hls mouth by the
murderers to keep him from making an
•outcry. On the floor lav a blood-stai n cd hickory club with which hls brains
were beaten out. Landman was last
seen alive when he went to a neighbor's
for breakfast Monday, and it is suppos­
ed that the crime was committed that
night by parties who wrongly supposed
the old man had monby in bis room.
The officers are working on the case
but no clue to the murder has yet been
found. Landman has several children,
whose where-aboute are unknown.

The following we clip from the
Charlotte Tribune, referring to the
Grand Ledge murder, mentioned in
our local columns last week.
On Monday of last week an old gen­
tleman by the name of William Lamp­
ham, of Grand Ledge, was cruelly
murdered for bls money. On Wednes­
day following the murder the dead
body was found by two brothers of the
murderer in a house where the old gen­
tleman lived and a part of which he
rented to one of these brothers. Mar­
shal Toaz at once notified Sheriff Pol­
lock who, with Prosecuting Attorney
Maynard, commenced Investigations
Thursday morning.
The old saying that “murder will out"
proved true in this case, and on Friday
evening Sheriff Pollock hail the mur­
derer In jail and a confession In the
hands of Mr. Maynard, which will save
all expense of trial.
The murderer has the suggestive
name Gf Butcher, John C. Butcher,
and he is but 27 years of age. He was
born at Pontiac, but has lived bls life­
time near Grana Ledge, where, as he
himself says, he is known us a "tough."
He Is a single man about five feet,
eight inches tall and well built.
It appears that, while enroute for
Grana Ledge from Greenville on Mon­
day,he made an appointment to meet a
notorious female at a certain train In
Grand Ledge. He drove bls white
horse to the Ledge and there bought
a plntof liquor at a drug store(?), .ook
a nig drink and waited for tbe train.
The woman failed to appear and he
took another drink of liquor, drove
directly to Mr. Lapham's and entered
tbe room occupied by tbe old man and
demanded his money. Upon being
refused the young desperado, now
crazed by drunkennes,seized the victim
by tbe throat and crammed a portion
of an old pair of overalls in his mouth
and with a leg of tbe same garment
tied a single knot about Mr. Lapham's
neck, causing strangulation. Marks of
violence appeared on tbe dead man's
face, which were evidently made with
brass knuckles, but Butcher does not
remember of striking. He was arrested
at Greenville and $224 found on his
person, although he claims he only got
116.25 of Mr. Lapham. The fact has
been known for some time that Mr.
Lainpham had money about tbe bouse
—money received some months since as
arrears of pension. Pretty good people
in Grand Ledge talked strotgly of
lynching the murderer, for Mr Lapham
was greatly beloved and respected in
his village.

The Vatican Library at Rome was

Nicholas V. However, itwa» based on
^collections fnr more ancient, aod there
is evidence that a pontifical library ex­
isted from tho fifth century. The pres­

in 15H8. It contains TJO.'OO printed vol­
umes and Sv,000 manuscripts. It is
open to the public only between Novem­
ber and Juno, and' is always close 1 on
Sundays and feast days. There is no

Ooifege.)

Numerous letters have been received
from various parts of thp State, &lt; alling attention to the great damage
done by the smut of oate and wheat
{MBMiaHy the former) and asking for
remedies. The loss to Michigan farm­
ers in the oat crop last year, by smpt,
was probably not. loss that (800,000.
and i nis year ll exceeds that amount
by at h’Mt taoo.fioo. In all the conimnnications which I have received
this year from diffierent parte of Lhe
state where actutfi eounta have b«en
made the percentage of smut, iu no
case, has been less than 8 percent, aud
in many cases It reached as high as 20
per cent., averaging about 16 per cent.
Tbe extent of loss by smut is seldom
appreciated until an actual count is
made. The smutted stalks are shorter,
than the others and before the oats
are ripe the smut is blown away, leav­
ing the bare stalk, which will not be
readily noticed.
In every case where the farmer has
estimated from 3 to 5 percent of smut
in bis oats, actual count has shown
from JO to 15 percent.
The hundreds of experiments rxmducted at Kansas, Indiana and other
.exp ulment stations at which treated
and untreated seed sown side by side
bare shown the practical.value of this
method.
„
’ Prof. Swingle and Prof. Arthur tell
ma that the farmers who have tried it
' in Khnsas and Indiana are enthusias­
tic in ite furor. Had all the farmers
of Michigan treated their seed last
spring, there would have been saved
to the state more than a million of
dollars. The fanners who raised 20
acres uf oats with straw promising 50
bushels per acre, recelvedabut 45. In
other words tbe farmer loses 100 bush­
els of oats. This is a low estimate,
for Id uo.case where farmers actually
counted the smutted stalks did the
per cent, fall below 8, aud In many
cases it reached 20.
Do not conclude that you have no
smut because you did not see it. In
the case of oats the smut is mostly
blown off before harvest and thesmutted stalki being shorter than the
healthy owes are not observed.
METHOD OF INFECTION

OF WHEAT

The spores (seed of lhe smut) atA
-tach themselves to the kernels of
wheat or oatsand are sown with them.
When Hie kernel of wheat or oats ger­
minates the smut spores also germin­
ate ahd enter the young plant, grow­
ing and subsisting on the inside of tbe
plant, until finally, when the head ap­
pears, it is smut instead of wheat or
oats, it has cost nearly or quite as
much to grow the affected plant as a
healt hy one. We ask for bread and
receive-smut. Certain conditions of
soil.or weather may be more favorable
to the grow th of smut than others,
but let it be distinctly understood
that its presence Is not due to any
condition of soil or weather. We sow
smuthnd we reap smut. In the Case
of oats the wind may carry the loose,
powdery smut over the fields and the
spores become attached to the kernels
oi oats. These spores are so small
that they cannot he seen with the
naked ere unless the e are many to­

grow when the oats are sown. Hut
probably the threshing machine Is
• the most effective way of bringing the
spores of smut into contact with tho
wheat and oat sfeed. A single kernel
may have thousands of these spores
attached to It yet not be oliserved.
The threshing machine Incomes’ a
ready means of carrying the smut
from one farm to another. It has
been found that these adhering spores
may Iw killed by dipping the seed
into hot water for a few minutes, and
yet not injure the vitality of tho seed.
This method, known as the Jensen or
hot water method, was discovered by
J. L. Jensen, of Denmark, In 1887.

A BRIGHT 5 YEAR-OLD.
But His Encore Wasn’t Appreciated
by bis Parents.

“I have one of the brlghest boys in
Chicago—I don't care If I do say it my­
self," said a prominent board of trade
man. He is only 5 years old byt he is
up to snuff and like all smart boys he
sometimes permits his brightness to
shine in the wrong direction. Not
long ago the Sunday school of which
my wife and I arc members decided to
give an entertainment to consist of
songs and recitations by children. As
a matter of course our son was to take
part In It. He was taught a very pretty
bit of Sunday poetry appropriate for
the occasion.
His mother took great pains to make
him perfect in It, and taught him
gestures to fit the words. The boy al­
ready kuew a number of little ’memory
gems’ and was instructed that if the
audience applauded his first effort he.
might give.as an encore any little
verse he should choose.
The night rf the entertainment ar­
rived and a large audience present.
The number on the program assigned
to our son was finally reached, and he
acquitted tymsett well. His mother
and I wete very proud of him, and itpleased us, too, to bear the audience
applaud the child and see him retrace
his steps for the purpose of reciting
an encore. Perfectly self-j ossessed he
faced the large audience, made an­
other profound bow. and said:
1 bought a*rooster for 15 cents,
And the son-of-a-gan jumped over
the fence.
The mother had never heard the
piece before. She will never hear it
again from her boy so long as ho re­
members the admonition which a lit­
tle later was forcibly put upon hljn.
No one can guess what a boy will do
next.”

The farmer may use his ingenuity In
regard to the treating of liis wheat
and oats, and use whatever conven­
iences he has at hand—anyway, so that
he accomplishes the desired result.
One way we And convenient is to
have a kettle in which to heat the
water quite hot, say 165 degrees.
Near this kettle place a barrel Ln
which to treat the seed. Fill this
barrel about one half full of hot water
from the kettle aud then by adding
either hot or cold water, the temper­
ature of the water in the barrel may
be kept at the desired height.
Into this barrel dip the seed.
The dipping is easily done by plac­
ing about a bushel of seed into a coarse
gunny sack and fasten this sack to one
end of a long pole hung across a
notched post.
The seed should be kept moving all
tbe time while in the hot water and
by using the pole this is easily done.
Oats may tie treated just before sow­
ing.
After taking them out of the barrel
of hot water It is i.est to ttwow cold
water over them to cool them off and
then IeL them stand and drain two or
three hours, after which they must be
so^i broadcast.
Wheat dries much more readily, so
if spread out immediately after treat­
ing and left tu dry a few hours, ii can
then bfcaown broadcast or in a force

As the grains will be considerably
swollen after their treatment it is well

A SAD THANKSGIVING.
ft was a brief message that the smart­
looking telegraph boy delivered at tho
coxy house on A’levolaad avenue, but it
w*a freighted with a world of happiness
for little Mrs. Harris, to whom It waa
addressed:
Liverpool, Nov. 14,—Home Thanks­
giving.
Wiiu.,
Mrs. Harris read and reread tho pre­
cious line,
- 1
.
"Dear'Will, how thoughtful of him to
cable! And It is nearly two weeks ear­
lier than he expected to get through,
bee, Dorothy, papa is coming back to us
•goin."
Dorothy dropped her dolly and pat­
tered across the floor to her mother's
elde.
"Papoo, dee?" she lisped.
"Yes, honey, papa dear is coming
home. Won't he be surprised to see
how big you have grown, and what a
good girl you aro, and how many tow
words you can bay? He vrtll be prouder
than ever of his little girl."
“Uh-huh," asserted Dorothy with the
supremo confidence of her two years, aa
her .mother tenderly swept her hand
over tho little one's glorious tangle of
golden curls. ‘Papoo turn tee mamma,
uxak, Dawsy.'"
"Yes, darling, papa will come and eeo
mamma and Jack and Dorothy. Brother
will bo home from school presently and
be will be glad, too, when he knows papa
is coming eo noon.
Mrs. Harris counted tbe days after the
receipt of the cable. She knew that it
would toko about ten days for lhe ocean
trip at that season of the year, and 6he
feared a little for the safety of their
loved one on the treacherous bosom of
the great o?eun.
Sturdy little Jack
was his mother's comforter through the
days that dragged slowly on, and each
night mamma and Jack and Dorothy
knelt at the-side of Jack's bed and
uhltod in a fervent plea to the Good
Father to watch over their dear one and
bring him safely home.
A week passed without special inci­
dent. There was something done in
the w«yr of preparation of the Thanks­
giving dinner, which bad been a feature;
with them over*since they were mar­
ried. Mrs. Harris came of good ‘old
New Engljmd stock, and the Indian
puddings, and mince pies, and ‘crullers*
that invariably formed a part of this
meal were always prepared by her own
hands. Her husband insisted that no
one else could make them taste so

.

The Thursday before Thanksgiving
when little Jack oame home from school
his cheeks were flushed and be com­
plained of his throat. Mrs. Harris, who
never liked to take any chances, called
the family physician, who sail that it
was nothing serious, though it should
be Mrolully watched. The next morn­
ing Jack was worse—tnuch worse—and
that nlaht was very bod indeed. When
tho doctor came he brought another
with him, and their verdict struck a
chill to the heart of the little mother.
"My dear madam," said the old doc­
tor, kindly, "your boy has diphtheria of
tho most malignant character.
We
will do all In our power for him, but we
gravely fear for tho result. In this
meantime the little girl must be kept In
another part of tho house."
Dorothy was banished to the upper
too.-, and Mrs. Harris sent for her slster to help her. Together they watched
over the pillow upon which Jack's curly
head toesod, and together they prayed.
Ah, tho terror of those nights; the hopes
and fears that alternated In the bosom
of that fond mother; tho prayers that
went up from tho depths of that gentie
woman e roul for the preservation of
the life of her boy. "Uh, God, spare
him to us," she pleaded; "let him live to
glorify Thy name and blees Theo in the
days when he shall have arrir» d at
man’s estate. Take him not from us,
we pray Thee; heal his Bicknese and ro•tore him whole to tho arms ot those
who wait for him. Yet, if he must die,
oh. our Father, we pray that ha may be
permitted to live to see his earthly
other ouoo more."
8o she supplicated for tho life of her
first-born, an-J when the rose from her

closed. A faint smilo touched tho poor
parched lips. "Papoo, doe," she mur­
mured faintly.
That was all. It was soon over. The
solemn undertaker came with two little
caskets and, accompanied by the father
and brother, drove to the cemotory,
where Jack and Dorothy sleep side by
aldo.
Tho air was crisp and quickened the
warm blood In the cheeks of those who
faced It. Some of the church bells were
ringing tho call to Thanksgiving service
as they returned.
They sat down at dinner with heavy
hearts. On one q|de ot the room stood
Dorothy's high chair; on the other was
Jack’s "safety," of which the little man
was so proud. They bowed their heads
reverently, as was their custom.
‘Almighty God," he began in a broken

THANKSGIVING DAY.

It* Origin anti Adoption Throughout tho
.
Country.
The first Thanksgiving Day held in
America Is believed to have occurred In
February, 1631, at which date a vessel
laden with supplies arrived to succor
the starv.ng colony at Charleston. Dur­
ing the following years frequent days
of thanks were appointed in the New
England colonics. At first these appolntmentvwore at different seasons of
the year—sometimes twice in one year
—and for special reasons.
Thanksgiv­
ing Day was a national Instftatlon dur­
ing the Revolution, and was annually
recommended by Congress, but after a
general thanksgiving for peaee in 1784.
here was no national appointment
till 1789, when President Washington
recommended a thanksgiving for the
adoption of tho Constitution. In 1795
Washington appointed another national
thanksgiving on account of the sup­
pression of the insurrection of that
year. In 1815 a day of thanksgiving
for the restoration of peace was recom­
mended by President Madison, but dur­
ing the early part of the century
Thanksgiving remained an institution
peculiar to New England, but was not
always held either ou tho same day or
forehead. Her eyes were dry and hot In tho Fame month. Tho Protestant

They had to pay for the land—aud
land Is valuable In England; aud tbe
cost of depots, etc., was much higher
than here, where all the land is given
free and often a bonus in the way of
city and county bonds for the location
of machine shops, etc. When It is
considered that the English roads
cost so much more and get none of
this assistance, one would think that
It was far mure difficult to pay divi­
dends on the stock there than here,
but the New Orleans Time®;Demo­
crat says this does not seem to be the
case. A parliamentary Inquiry con­
ducted by the British Labor Commis­
sion into the English railroads, and
more particularly Info the wages paid
employes, shows a condition of affairs
•highly creditable to them.
The
amount of money Invested In rail­
roads is 84.485,000,000, and authorlied capital •5,003,000,000.
It is
here that the defects In our railroad
system become apparent. The laws
creating the British railroads keep
their capital down very close to tbe
actual oost; Whereas, here the stock
Is watered time and time again, un­
til often the capital of the company
represents barely 10 per cent, of the
money expended.
“Water" is the
reason why so many American rail­
roads default in the payment of their
dividends. The gross receipts per
annum of the English roads are £80,­
000,000; hut the working expenses
reduce this by more than one-half,
and the net earnings amount to £43,­
000,000 annually. The English roads,
therefore, pay average dividends of
5 per cent. (4.8 per cent., to be exact),
which is far above what our roads do.
Another point Inquired into by the
commission—and it was tbe matter
most investigated by it—was in re­
gard to wages.
The evidence subm.itted showed that the number of
Inen employed by the English com­
panies is in the neighborhood of 350,UOO. This ia a much larger number
in proportion to mileage than arc em­
ployed in this country, and proves
that the British roads are better
equipped—one of the reasons why
there are fewer accidents there than
here. It was also shown that the
men had fully shared in the prosper­
ity of the companies, and that their
pay had increased more rapidly in the
last eight years than tho gross re­
ceipts, the Improvement In wages be­
ing 21 per cent, and In railroad buslnoas only 12 per cent, and that
there had been at tho same time a
material reduction in the hours of
labor.
We boast a great deal about our
railroads, and we undoubtedly lead
the world in milcage; but It would be
well to remember some of the facts
brought out by this British commis­
sion: That we have too many acci­
dents and kill too many people; that
wc do not pay as good dividends as
the English lines, which cost a great
deal more, and that American em­
ployes do not share in the Increased
prosperity of the roads as fully rfs
they do in England.

Other countries, however, show nc
intention of laying aside the sword
for tbe legal argument. It tony da
well enough for kindred conn tries or
in
where the disparity of power
Is so great as to make war ridiculous.
But between blood enemies It finds
no favor. Germany faces her armies
toward the French aud Russian
frontiers; Austria-Hungary watches
for the Cossack camp fires; France
snarls at England’s stay in Egypt,
and all the powers are ready to fly at
one another's throat; as soon as some
accident shall start a .fight In any
quarter. There is no thought of
arbitration, and apparently nothing
to arbitrate.
Possibly after the next great con­
flict the other powers will see the ad­
vantages of settling their differences
peaceably, but it does not look as
though they would come to that mind
until they have experienced again the
full disadvantages of war.
“Did you e*ver try stamping a coin
with your name and sending it out
on its journey?" said Bourke Lenord,
of Montreal. "Four years ago I did
that. I stamped a quarter while in
New York Cl.ty and passed it the
same day for a basket of grapes.
Three days later I left tho city. I
went direct to Mount Clemens,
Mich., from New York and put up
at the Avery House. I hadn’t been
there two days before a friend of
mine, and a commercial tourist,
cams to the same house and took
rooms. I was sitting out on the
piazza listening to the music that
they have every evening, when he
came up and said:
“ ‘I’ve got something here that be­
longs to you, Leonard.’
r
“ ’What's that?’ I asked.
“ ‘When did you stamp this quar­
ter?’
i.
“ ‘Not over four days ago,’ I said,
rising up in surprise. He held it out
to me, and, sure enough, there was
iny coin. He had been In New York
at tho same time, and had,received
it in change from a saloon on the
Bowery: Well, that was once. That
same quarter came to me a year later
while I was stopping at the AlexanderHousc. A drummer friend of
mine had picked it up in Kansas
City, and had held it for me. I
turned that quarter loose again upon
the market, aud within six months I
had it again, brought, of course, to
me by a friend of mine who had
taken It In change from some hotel
clerk down in Indiana. Well, I took
it up and passed It again. From that
time on until now I have never seen
It, but there Is no telling. I expect
to run across It shortly. A friend of
mine stamped his name on one six
years ago and sent it out, but it
failed to return. Must have been
taken up by a bank and sent to the
Treasury. I don’t th’.nk it would go
that long without coming back It’s
interesting if nothing else. You
want to try It."
A Had Want of Originality. "

I ho Crown Prince of’Denmark fur­
nishes a curious example cf the no­
menclature practiced by royal famil­
ies. The rule in Turkey was that
Amurath should succeed Amurath,
and In England that George should
succeed George or Henry should fol­
low Henry. In Denmark, however,
the rule has long been that Frederick
should succeed Christian and Chris­
tian Frederick. *
This is confusing enough to write
Intelligibly, but it is still worse in
practice. Nearly every Danish king
is named Christian or Frederick, and
so the difficulty of distinguishing be­
tween them is great.
Tbe present king Is Christian the
Ninth. He was the son of Frederick
the Seventh. He will be succeeded
by Frederick the Eighth, who in turn
will be followed by Christian the
Tenth. The mere fact that the pres­
ent Crown Prince is known as Fred­
erick, and that if he died before his
father he would be succeeded in his
rights by his son, Prince Christian,
is nothing at all.
All the sms of the royal bouse of
Denmark are Christian and Freder­
ick, and therefore, from the point of
view of mere nomenclature, it does
not matter which of them succeeds
to the crown. The next two lots in
crowned heads In Copenhagen would
bo labeled Frederick the Eighth and
Christian the Tenth, under any cir­
cumstances.
In many princely German families
every male who is born is christened
by the hereditary name. The result
of this peculiar custom maj* be illus­
trate/! by the fact that in the reign­
ing house of Ileus? the Henry* run up
to Henry the Sixty-ninth.

The growth of international arbi­
tration has not been as rapid as tbe
friendfcof peace were at one time led
to hop?. In spite of arguments and
practical examples the United States
and Great Britain are almost alone In
their adhesion to the principle. The
other nations still ho.d to the stern
and tested policy of getting what
they can by individual bargaining,
and fighting when they cannot agree.
The advantages of arbitration are
easy to be understood. To say noth­
ing of avoiding the slaughter of good,
productive citizens, the financial ad­
vantages are almost wholly on the
side of peace. Napoleon was a mas­
ter hand at robbery and believed ful­
ly in tbe maxim of living off the
enemy, yet In spite of all the money
raised by taxation in France and the
countries appropriated by France the
debt had increased from 714,000,000
francs to 1.272,000,000 francs at the
end of the fifteen years of Napoleon's
government. This was, lo bo sure, a
small increase, considering the fight­
ing that waa done, but when even the
ruthless policy of Napoleon could not
make war at the expense of the con­
quered no other may hope to be suc­
cessful. Germany came nearest to it
by collecting 5,000,000,000 francs of
France and taking Alsace and Lor­
raine as the prize of the war of 1870,
but the cost of the war Id money and
the still greater expense it has en­
tailed In the enormous military es­
tablishment necessary to hold the
provinces have made it a dear bar­
gain.

Tuesday morning Dr. W. H. Young,
of this village, assisted by Drs. Drake,
Lowry and Fuller, of Hastings, suc­
cessfully removed a very large ovarian
Lumor from Mrs. Merrick Reed, an es­
timable lady of Hastings. The oper­
ation was probably the smoothest one
of tbe many the doctor has performed,
and will add materially to his laurels
in this line. The tumor weighed oyer
sixty pounds, nearly tilling an ordinary
wash tub, and yet there was so little
cutting or laceration that when the
lady recovered from tbe effects of the
chloroform she could hardly believe
the operation had been performed.
She Is now getting along nicely and
will be around tbe house as usual In a
few days. Dr. Young has gained for
himself in‘these cases an enviable rep­
utation for care and skill, second to
that of no physician In the state,
which his long list of successful oper­
ations shows he deserves.

yourself tn a semicircular room of

considerable size with raised tiers of
benches, to enable the spectators to
witness the manufacture of the glass.
In tbe center stands the furnace,
which consumes daily some three

What is the composition of the
glass Dr. Salvlati declares that he
bimself does not know. It is a jeal­

visitor may notice a taciturn old man
who moves quietly about among the
workmen and disappears now and
again into a dark room at the back,
where the mysterious materials are

HUMOR OF THE WEEK.

Corot and Itaublgrny.

We readily associate the names of
Corot and Daubigny, and with rea­
son.
Notwithstanding tbe twenty
years’ seniority of the former artist,
they were very intimate friends,
sharing many similar aspirations In
art, while each still preserved hls
distinct Individuality.
Corot was
more subjective, tingeing his works
with his own peculiar poetic fancy.
Daubigny, on the other hand, gave
himself up more to tbe impression if
the moment, endeavoring to express
the local qualities of form and color
in all their brilliancy and freshness.
He did not reach perfection of style
at the beginning of his career, but
through most devoted study, guided
by the native strength and originality
of his views; nor did this high epoch
of landscape-art come hastily or ac­
cidentally, but was made possible by
the united efforts of many men and
minds working together during the
first half of our century.—Century.

In the central row are Ove plates,

missives from tho hands of th-j anti­
que ed postmaster of Hopedale, thrust
one, an ordinary business missive, hito
his pocket eaKtlcsely, but tho other—
hla eye brightened aud hls pulses camo
quicker.
“From Edna.” ho murmured, recog­
nising tho handwriting on tho envelope.
’Hometh'ng about the recoption to­
night. I hope that tiresome Mr. Brins­
ley Is not to- be her escort. It is too
precious, too sacred to read here.”
Ho reached home an l went to hls
room with a gay song oa hi» lips. The
memory of the girl he loved was alwcy.» with him, the possession of a
shy, dainty epistle from her enhanced
its sweetness.
"Rather bulky,” ho commented, as ho
carefully cut open the envelope, as If
every scrap of paper her hands had
touched was procions. "Mr. Marshall—
why! what is this.* Oh, Edna! a Joke,
a cruel hoax, surely."
Tho words died in a gasp. With star­
ing eyes Marshall surveyed the letter
before him. Then staggering to a seat,
ho sat glaring at It with colorless face
and chilled heart
A formal dismissal, a cold, precise
disavowal of all tho post, tho cruel
words seemed icy fingers reaching for
his heart, to blight all the faith anl
love of hls nature with a single touch.

“About 8:30 o’clock this morning I went
to my brother William Biegler’s bouse,
893 North Hoyne avenue, to get a gun,
as I was told by our Lord God up above
to go aud get a gun. I was born to
realize this country. Tbe Lord said
to me, to-day is the . day of Judg­
ment, and you have got to be there.
I brought the gun home and put it In
the clothes closet, and after awhile I
took It out. Then my mother-in-law

A Grand Island, Neb., dispatch says:
At A?da Biding, eight miles west o!
Grand Island, express train No. 8,going
at a speed of forty-five miles an hour,
crashed into cn extra freight train
standing on the switch.
The passenger train, which was due
here at 6 o'clock and at Omaha at 10:40,
was nearly one Lour and n half late,
and, striking the grade west of Aids,
Engineer McDonald determined to make
up some of the time, and pulled the
throttle open. Tho freight engine had
been doing considerable switching on
tho siding. After the work had been
completed tho engine was comparatively
dead ct the head of the siding. The
morning was feggy, and unmindful of
danger and secure in the thought that
tho switch was properly placed, the en­
gineer and fireman of the extra waited
for tho passenger tra'n to rush by.
But the switch liad not been closed
aad the passenger train brought death
to four men and fatally wounded three
others through criminal negligence of
the switch tender. The men killed were:
J. W. Keller, conductor of the freight.
Grand Island. He leaves a widow and
two children. Barney McDonald, euElneer of the passenger. North Platte.
eaves a widow, but no children. Gus
Barrett, engineer of tho freight. North
Platte. Leaves a widow and three
children. Ira Owens, fireman of the
freight, North Platte. Loaves a wife
and five children. The Injured are: Will­
iam Costeila, fireman of tho passenger.
Grand Island; single; badly fcalded; both
ankles fractured and will probably die.
William Sutherland, brakeman on the
freight, Grand Island; single; caught in
wreck and feet broken. A. M. Lyons,
mull agent, Kearney; head wounded
and leg fractured.
No passengers were injured. Both
engines are wrecked, while the mall
and baggage cars are badly damaged.
Inc ide of half an hour a relief train
from Grand Island was on the scene
with physicians to look after the wound­
ed and all passenger and baggago were
transferred from the wreck to tho relief
train, which reached Omaha at 3 o'clock.

HOLDING ON TO THEIR JOBS.

It is stated at the Poetofflc* Depart­
ment in Washington that the percentageof resignations of fourth-class post­
masters received up to date on ac&lt; ount
of tho result of the election has been,
considerably les* than at the corres­
ponding time" four years ago.
Tholargest number of resignations thus far,
has come from those* of the third class,
whoio salaries rarge from ll.CBd to$2,000 per annum. There aro al out
fifty ot them on file. The reason.
BSfiignod for their resignation 1*
that they are compelled under tho
law to furnish the outfit of their offices,
consisting of,lock, boxes, office furni­
ture, etc., which in some cases cost
several hundred dollars, often as high
as $5(0. To protect themselves from
total loss a practice, it Is alleged, has
prevailed for tho holding over postmas­
ters to make un agreement with tiio
most prominent candidate for the offico
by which tho former resigns and opens
the way to a political opponent to suc­
ceed him. provided tbat the latter pur­
chases the office outfit. Tbe resigna­
tion uf tho postmaster Is forwarded tothe department, and upon the appoint­
ment of hte successor by tho President,
the successful applicant pays for hla

Ot all. the heavenly bodlee tbe comhave been the cause of the most
speculation and superstition. They
have been for ages the source of fear
aud have been looked upon by the
masses of .people as omens of evil.
There are many reasons for this; but
chief of all, probably, are their si range
appearance, their erratic motions, and
their sudden appearance, and disapitearance. At, 'present, however,
while looked upon with interest
by astronomers, they are no longerthe
source of fear; for they are almost, if
not quite, as well understood as any
of the heavenly bodies. They are, so
to speak, the remnants of the universe
—after the other bodies were formed,
tl.e remnants went to make the com­
ets. Tbeir mass Is very small as oomSred to any of the other bodies of
e solar system and are made up of
gaseous, solid and dust like particles,
varying in $izefrom the finest dust to
large meteoric stones. The total mass
of the comet is so small that the at­
traction which holds the body to­
gether Is very feeble, and the Ixxl.y
very susceptible to influence when
brought within the raugeuf attraction
of any of the planets.
.
The danger from colliding with a
planet may very well Im* compared to
the danger of an elephant's colliding
with a gnat— the danger is all on oue
side. The largest comet probablywould
not canse a tremor to the earth In its
path, even by a “ head end" collision.
Some of the larger meteoric stones of
the comet would reach tlfe earth, but
modtof itsluns-s would lie dissipated
in the atmosphere liy the heat gen­
erated, so that only the larger ones
would lie able to penetrate the atmos­
phere.
The bits of comets, are mostly,
greatly elongated ellipses, though
some are parabolic and some hyperbulic. Or these only tbe ellipses Is a
curve returning Into Itself; and con­
sequently, those comets which move
in paralx’lic and hyperbolic orbits
come Into our system from without,
sweep round the sun and away never
to return.
The comet which Is now attracting
attention was thought to be the long
lost Biela's which which was dlcoreredby Biel, an Austrian observer, In 1826
and found to have a period of about
six years and eight months. By the
computation of its orbit it was found
to be the same which had been seen In
1772 and 1805. At the next twe re­
turns In 1832 and 1839, the earth was
not In the right }K&gt;sition in its orbit to
render the comet visible at its per­
ihelion passage, but it was seen In
1845. tile third return. Rut at this
return It had evidently encountered
oue of the planets of our solar system
and was separated into twp comets
which went along at a distance of
aliout 200,000 miles from each other,
but growing farther.and farther apart
until 1852, its next return, when the
two parts were found to "have parted
company to tbe distance of a million
and a half miles. The comets have
not since been seen and it is believed
they have beep dissipated into a train
of meteors occupying the original path
of the comets, or nearly so. An
estimate of its orbit, as closely as can
be made from observation extending
over few days, the present comet is
probably not Biela's but a new one.
and whether It has ever beenseeu and
estimated before can only be told by
carefully computing its orbit and
comparing witn those which have pre­
viously been observed and estimated.

The Hennepin Canal Is under full

time tb?re has been a good deal more
prind than water in IL, and among

timber* In the foundation, and deliv­
ering of 5,200 cubic feet of sand and
gravel for concreting bottom.
A mile of canal ttunk is a busy
place when a couple of hundred teams,
with implements and men to match,
arc constantly traversing it, and this

including the guard lock and the
dams across Rock river. Upon tbe
completion of this section the water
will be backed up by these dams so
that at low water the Rock river will
be navigable—seven-foot stage to
Green river, and at high water to
Penny’s slough, twenty-seven -miles
from the Mississippi. In all 11,000,­
000 is available, however, and tbe
work will advance far enough la an­
other summer to make a great show­
ing of the utility and Importance of
the canal. Its friends hope It will
command additional money as it may
be needed.
The workmen employed by tbe en­
gineers and the contractors are
mostly transients—men who follow
the various pieces of government
work about the country. There are
also a number of residents in these
employes and most of the teams be­
long to men who live In the vicinity.

In the fail of 1800 Captain L. L.

this field to make surveys and build
the canal. He located the route, as
narrated, secured the right of way
after encountering many difficulties,
aome of which were Only settled in
the courts, and staked out the line of
the canal. He had with him several

gineers as assistants, and much was

The region is not without its ro­
mantic associations. Just sixty years
ago Abraham Lincoln and other Illi­
nois lads were In camp here, quaran­
tined because they had the cholera.
They came here to finish up the Black
Hawk war, and the disease broke out
among them. Not long ago the exca­
vate) s turned out two skeletons. No
one living here knows anything about
how they came there. They may
have been Indians, but they are
guessed again to have been the vic­
tims of the plague.
On the north shore of Bock River
rises a steep, rocky bluff. It has
been known as Black Hawk's watch­
tower for years. While he was among
the whites here that famous chief
made mention of it as an outlook of
his, and the name seems to'have been
honestly given. A year or so ago D.
II. Louderback, of Chicago, Presi­
dent of the Trl-city,Street Railway
Company ot Davenport. Rock Island,
and Moline, purchased this property.
He transformed the shabby old house
on the summit Into a graceful halfMorcsque summer hotel, which he
calls the Black Hawk Inn, and re­
vamped the dummy trains into an
electric car service. Now the pride

Last winter D. W. Little, one Of
the ado lx: farmers on the west
town, shot into a band of geese,
white gander was struck and had
one wing broken. Mr. Little took
the goose hume and gave him to his
boys, who doctored his wing and he
scon became so tame as to follow the
boys wherever they went, cat from
their hands and even poke his head
into their pockets for corn and
wheatA few days ago a band of wild
geese flying over the premises and
making their usual clatter attracted
the attention of the domesticated
gander, which gave an outlandish dis­
play of quacking and shrill yells In
goose language that had a most
startling effect with the band flying
past. A fine white goose was seen to
leave tbe band and shoot down until
it landed In the yard at the side of
the pct, and the meeting was demon­
strative to an exciting degree. Their
gabbling, quacking and amusing.an,tics afforded as'much fun for the boys
who witnessed the meeting as they
could have found at a circus. The
new arrival, which is probably a
mate of the now tame goose, refuses
to leave, but will -fly over the fence
when the two are approached by the
boys, and then fly back to the mate
when the boys step aside.—Briggs

and Southern Wis.-onsin farmers to
Northern and Western Iowa, which has
been an Important factor in the devel­
opment ot these portions ot Iowa during
the past two or three years, Is extend­
ing further west, says a Sioux City,
Iowa, correspondent, and this fall hun­
dreds of farmers from Illinois and Wis­
consin. and not a few from the Missis­
sippi River counties in lows, have made
purchases in Northern Nebraska and
Routh Dakota, with the Intention 'of
making their homes in these States In
the future. The farmers came out on
the annual harvest excursions given
by the railroad companies. Most of
them come from about Council Hill.
Galena, Pecatonica, from Kane County,
and from the southern counties of Illi­
nois. They Invariably .buy the best
farms here and pay cash for them. They
sell their old homes for from MUto$7«&gt;
an acre, and are able to buy the best
farms here for from $lH to $3U per acre.
This leaves them enough money to put
on good improvements after paying cash
for their farms and still have a neat bal­
ance left to their credit.

Why Do We Wear Mourning?

This movement to tho West has had a
great deal to do with Its development.
It is an un lenlable fact that the Illinois
aud Wisconsin men are letter farmers
than those they found in possession of
the country. They use more machinery
and give mpre attention to tho breeding
of stock and to dairy farming. They are
responsible for the wonderful growth
of the dairy-business throughout Iowa,
and are developing It as rapidly in
the new fields they are seeking in Ne­
braska and Routh Dakota. They build
better houses and their farms are neater
in appearance. A person can come very
near to picking out ithelr places In driv­
ing through the country. Thoje who
L ought this fall already have under way
or are planning Improvements that will

and at the same time enhance the value
of surrounding property.

The custom Is outworn; it is an
anachronism In the nineteenth cen­
tury, says the North American Re­
view. It is unchristian; It clouds
the spiritual significance of the res­
urrection with the ever present ex­
pression of temporal loss. It Is cruel;
It forces helpless and innocent people
into action, which entails privation
and unnecessary suffering. It is un­
truthful; it makes false outward
show of changes In sentiment. And
it is essentially vulgar; for it presses
private affairs upon public notice; it
thrusts claitnsof fashion and frivolity
upon a time which most greatly
moves the heights and depths of be­
ing; and it forces its superficial
worldliness into the fiercest throes
which can ever rend human nature.
Why, then, do we still wear mourn­
ing?

pies the pew now? Nobody regularly.
It is reserved for strangers. A great
au'aay visitors come there, you know
and so the pew has some occupant
every Sunday."
The old church is full of interest to
the visitor. It Is practically what it
was over a hundred years ago when
George Washington was a member ol
its vestry. The building was com­
pleted In February, 1773, and on the
27th of that month Washington pur­
chased )&gt;ew No. 5, paying a hand­
some sum, and also agreeing to pay
an annual rental of lite pounds ster­
ling* For years he occupied the pew
regularly, and It has since always
been designated by his name.
In those days all the box-like pewe
were double or nearly square, but
since then partitions have been pul
in and two single pews made out ol
each double one.
The Washington
pew, however, remains as nt first.
The pulpit and reading desk are of
later make, but are patterned after
those In use in Washington's day,
and even a part of the present pulpit
is a relic of the original.
The illustration gives a correct
idea of the appearance of the church.
Nearly all of our large.cities are
more or less afflicted with a smoke
nuisance and committees In Pitts­
burg, St. Louis, Chicago and other
places have made reports on the sub­
ject and endeavored with more or
less success to almtc the trouble.
Naturally there is a demand for an
efficient means of preventing smoke
and among the latest devices for the
purpose is one Invented by the emi­
nent English naval engineer, A. 11.
Seninett. Mr. Sennett’s investiga­
tions on tne cause of smoke led him
to placo great reliance on the pres­
ence of hydrogen, steam or aqueous
vapor in the furnace. From experi­
ments he carried out in tbe injection
of air. first by Jets of steam and sec­
ond by jets of compressed air, he
found that the volume of air re­
quired for combustion when injected
by steam was very considerably less
than the volume required when in­
jected by means of compressed air, I
results confirmed by other invcstlga-1
tors. Tire points brought out by his
experiments are summed up as fol­
lows: (1) An adequate volume of air
must always be injected above the
fuel; (2) thb gases from tbe coal and
the introduced air must be thorough­
ly agitated: (3) the gases from the
coal, after admixture with the air,
should be depressed and distributed
in contact with the Incandescent
mass of fuel; (4) contact between tbe
gas from the coal aud the boiler platei
should be prevented as much as pos­
sible until after admixture with the
injected air; .(5) adequate space
should be provided for the expansion
of the gases; (6) when average coat
is used the volume of air injected
upon the top of the fuel should be
equal to at least one-half of the vol­
ume ad ml tier! through the bars; (7)
considerably mptc steam should be
present In the furnace than can be
obtained from the hydrogen of tbe
coal. In order to obtain these re­
suits Mr. Scnnett has devised an In­
strument which he calls a transform­
er. Steam from the boiler Is first
superheated, and then passes to the
Injector. The steam and air pxss
from this injector to a deflecting
plate just Inside the fire-door, and in
this way the current is distributed
over the surface of the fuel. The
taxable about smoke-consuming or
smoke-preventing arrangements is
generally that they Increase the con­
sumption ot fuel. . This does not ap­
pear io be the case with the apparatus
under notice, however, for Prof.
Kennedy finds as the result of tests
that there was a saving ot 10 per
cent, due to its use in addition to the
fact that it entirely abolished smoke.

It is utterly impossible for the
best men to please tbe whole world;
and the sooner that is understood,
and a position taken In view of this
fact, the better.
Do right, though
you have enemies.

Washington, Dec. 5.—The post­

ning of bls nnbual report to the Pres­
ident the chief developments of the
year as follows:
“Fire million dollars added to the

Fifteen hundred and ninety new mail

service introduced. It appears that

The Kansas Canvassing Board has
completed lhe official count. The can­
vass prugress-cd without excitement un­
til the t o for member ot the lower houso
from Coffey County was reached. Tho
statute provides that in a case of a tio
tho board shall dotermine by lot who Is
elected. Attorney General Ivo?, tho
only Populist member of the board,
claimed that tho statute was unconsti­
tutional, and that it was the duty of tbo
board to decide that no. election hod
Icon made and that tho Governor
should call a special election. AH of
the other members of the board insisted
that tho provision of tbo statute should
bo carried out and the Attorney Gen­
eral withdrew, declining to te a party
to un act that he considered unconsti­
tutional. Tbo remaining members of

settle the tie by drawing lots, and th &gt;
Republican candidate was successful.
In Haskell County Joseph Rosenthal, a

to the returns gave Rosenthal’s vote to

The trouble began by t ton being
Ing made ou the Btono Cfty Faak. a pri­
vate Institution operated by Henry Fish
A Sens. Before the doora were opened
klarge crowd collected, and no sooner
did the hour for opening arrive then a
feverish crowd pushed to the teller’*
window and had their notes, checks,
certificates and books turned into cash.
The rush grew rather than dlmlniahed
with the flight of time, and the fact that
all comers got their money' without a
murmur did not deter tho ethers in the
crowd, who stood stolidly waiting their
turn. By ft:30 a. m. StO.OOO had been
paid out It was evident that the pay­
ment could not last much longer, so
orders were issued t j the teller to pay
out no more money. Tho crowd was
dismissed with the assurance-that the
bank would pay depositors every dollar
and the doors were closed to the publie,
while the bankers, with their attorneys,
got their heads together to see how
affairs stood and what would bo best to
do under tho circumstances.
George M. Fish, Treasurer of th*
bank, sold: "We owed depositors about
SxBO.tUO. We paid cut over $60,000, and
now owe our depositors about &gt;175,000,
and have taken every possible measure
to protect them.
We have taken pos­
session of the manufactured stock of
tho Joliet Enterprise Company, which
is worth $250,000, and I am sure our as­
sets are thus amply sufficient to pay all
depositors. We have let go of the en­
tire buainc^tf by turning everything over
to Chauncey J. Blair, of Chicago, ca
trustee, and thus the rights of all par­
ties will be secured."
The Joliet Enterprise Company is a
total failure. Tho liabilities are over
$500,000, while the assets are valued at
about tho same figures. Tho Cin-ut
Court and Recorder’s offices were busy
all day with filing of papers and record­
ing of deeds that pertains 1 to tho
trouble. Tho citizens are greatly ex­
cited: Nover before was ezeitement
known to J&gt;t&gt; st such a high pitch. Tho
business houses in all parts o.’ tho city
did but little business, and men left
their work In the mills, factories, farms,
and stores to inquire about the deposits
they had left at tho Stone City Bank.

Detective Witte tells a tunny-story
of a case that happened while he was
in Chicago. A country Marshal came
into town to arrest a man wanted
within his jurisdiction for embezzle­
ment.
He called at police head­
quarters, stated his case, but spurned
all proffers of assistance from the detectlvcs, saying that he didn't want
any detect,!ves to “ring in” on his
cases, and he guessed they couldn't
give him any "p’inters" anyhow. A
friend of his was to point out through
the glass door of the attorney’s office
the man wanted, and Mr. Marshal
was to go in and arrest him.
The .scheme worked heautlfullly.
The Marshal greeted his man with
the -elf-satlsfled feeling with which
a cat plays with its captive mouse
before making a meal ot it. and al­
lowed that his prospective prisoner
wasn't expecting him
He then de­
liberately took out the warrant and
read It with many a flourish. Then

prisoner, sir; come with me."
“Well, I guess not.” said the man,
the look of surprise on his face turn­
ing to a broad gr!i\ of mirth.

“Why, a-a-ain’t you Smith, who is*
wanted up In Mossville for erubezz’ementy” asked the Marshal, redden­

the supposed prisoner. “Mr. Smith

The tower house of the Fifty-third
Congress will bar© a deaided Democra­
tic majority, yet the Republicans by tho
recent election gained more than they
lost in numbers and talent, while tte
Democrats lost many old and experiencel members. In the House* of Repre­
sentatives of the Flfty-secxmd Congress
there are 235 Democrats, 88 Republi­
cans and 8 Farmers' Alliance men,
making a total of 3)2 members. In the
Fifty-third Congress tho total member­
ship will be 356, a gain of 24 under tho
reapportionment of th© new census. It
is Imposribje yet to state definitely the
relative strength of each party in the
House, because in many districts the
official count will -bo necessary to de­
termine accurately the result. From

have in round numbers 220 members,
the Republicans 130, and the Topullsts

I recommend that tbe whole subject of tariff
revision te left to tbe in-coming Congress. It
la a matter of regret that this work most be
delayed for at least three months; ter the
threat of great tariff chMge* introduces so
much uncertainty that on amount, not easily
estimated, of business inaction Md of dimin­
ished production wfll necessarily result. It is
possible, also, that this uncertainty may reault
in decreased revenues from custom* dctle*. for
our merchants will make cautious orders for
foreign goods in view of the prospect of tariff
reduction and the Uncertaint y aa lo when they
will take effect. Those who have advocated a
protective tariff cm well afford to have their
disastrous forcsate of a change of policy dis­
appointed. if a system of custom* duties cm
be framed that will set the idle wheel* and
looms ot Europe in motion Md crowd our
warehouse* with foreign made goods, and at
the same time keep our own mills busy: that
will give u* an increased participation tn tbe
”n&gt;arxet* of lhe world” of greater value than
the home market we surrender: that will give
Increased work to foreign workmen upon prodnets to |&gt;e consumed by our people without

,berc; that will enable the American nianuto a 1U&gt; per cent, more in wage*
than te paid lu the forrign mill Md
yet to compete in our market Md in
foreign markets with tbe foreign producers;
that will further reduce Tlho cost ol articles
of wear and food without reducing tbe
waircs of those who produce them: that cm be
celebrated, after it* effects have been realized
a* its expectation has been, in EuropeM a*
well aa in American cities, the authors Md
promoter* will be entitled lo the highest praise
We have had in our history several experiences
of the contrasted effect of a revenue anil of a
protective tariff, but thia generation has not
felt them, and tbe experience 1* not highly in­
structive to the next. The friends of the pro­
tective system with undlmlnlabed confidence
in the principles they have advocated, will
await the result* of the new experiment.
.

The attained and loo often disturbed rela­
tion* existing between the employers and the
employes in our great manufsctutlag estab­
lishments have not been favorable to a calm
consideration by the wage earner of the effect
upon wage* nt the protective system. The
facta that bl* wage* were the highest paid tn
like calling* in the world, and that a malnseuce of protective duties u;k&gt;u the prod­
uct of his labor, wi« tmjKMisiblc. were ob­
scured by the passion evoked by these
contest*. Ke may now be able to review the
question in the light of hte personal experi­
ence under tbe operation of a tariff for revenue
on*v. If that experience ahali demonstrate
that the present rate of wages are thereby
maintained or increased, either absolutely »&lt;•
or iu their purchasing power, andtha^ the ag­
gregate volume of work to be done-in this
country i* increased, or cvjn miintalned. so
that there are more ora* mMV days' work iu ■
year at good or better wage* for the American
teettve system, every one will rejoice.
A general process Of wage reduction cannot
be contemplated by any patriotic citizen with­
out the greatest apprehension, it may be—in­
deed. I believe, is—possible for the American
mannfacturcr to compete successfully with hl*
foreign rival In many branches of production
without tho defense of protective duties, if the
pay-rolls are equalized; but the conflict that
stand* between the producer Md that result
and the distress of onr working people when
it te attained are not pleasant to contemplate.

ttve departments which are herewith sub­
mitted have very naturally included a resnmc
of the whole work of the administration with
the transactions of the laat fiscal year. The
attention not only of Congress but of the coun­
try is again invited to the methods of admini­
stration which have been pursued and to tbe re­
sults which have been attained. Public revenues

Two ancient aud barbarous customs
are still in vogue in Corsica, though, be
it oodentood, far loss generally so than
in former litnv*. I allude to the ven­
detta nn&gt;l the practice of brigandage.
The vendetta consist* in rever.-ging by
al! possible tnean* the death by violence,
or an injury committed against the per­
son of one of the members of a family.
This vengeance I* exercised cither on the
guilty person himself or on his son oronc
of his immediate descendants until the
second or third generation, and the duty
of exercising it is trnnsmitteil piously
from one generation to the other of the
descendants of the offended party, the
vendetta, being only extinct when the
crime is avenged, unless, as happens
sometime*, it nvommcncci on the other
•’de, and then it finishes only with the
complete extermination of the rival fami­
lies.
Much bloodshedding has arisen
from the practice of this barbarous cus­
tom, which is held in *o much honor

PRETTY

WINDOWS.

Nashville merchants have eclipsed
the efforts of all former years In dress­
ing holiday windows, and it is well
worth one’s time to make a trip
around to see them. Among the
prettiest on^s may be mentioned that
of G. W. Francis &amp; Son, where a strik­
ingly realistic log cabin Is located, sur­
rounded by a rail fence, the whole ar­
tistically constructed of candies.
A.
S. Mitchell has another unique win­
dow, where a happy-faced kid Is
enjoying the pleasures of tobog­
ganing, among artistic winter
surroundings. Fred Baker has
a window filled with fancy can­
dles, arranged in a tasty manner
and particularly attractive to
the little folks. W. E. Buel and
Buel &amp; Knight haye tastily arranged
window displays, tbe former of plush
and fancy Christmas goods, ana the
latter of particularly handsome holi­
day goods in the Jewelry line. Glas­
gow's furniture store window isa mar­
vel of art and beauty. C. E. Goodwin
has two very pretty windows, one
with a fine selection of dainty Jewelry,
the other tastefully decorated with
white and filled with beautiful things
for the holidays. J. Lentz &amp; Sons show
some exquisite things In furniture.
Buel &amp; White have their large corner
window filled with pretty things and
arranged to the beet advantage.
F rank McDerby has two neat wlcdows, which attract the attention of
the passers-by. All'of the dry goods,
stores, too, have neat window displays
this week, but not dressed particular] v
in holiday attire with the exception
of Truman &amp;, Banks, in whose window
a white elephant attracts lots of
attention. Wc are glad to
see that our merchants are

ying more attention lately

tl matter of dressing win­
dows. It not only stimulates
trade, but It gives our busi­
ness street a much more met­
ropolitan appearance, which
cannot fail to create a good opinion of
our town In the minds of strangers.
We have recently heard of a few
farmers, near Nashville, who have de­
horned their cattle. This is done in
many places by the farmers and catftle raisers, and it is claimed that cat­
tle without horns bring a much larger
price In the market, but we are sur­
prised to learn that our farmers should
resort to such cruel and Inhuman
measures In order to swell their purses.
No punishment could be severe enough
for such people, and if there is a law
prohibiting cruelty to animals in this
state we would like to it enforced to
the fullest extent in every case of this
kind.

INOPPORTUNE.

A Naahvllle Glrl’a Untimely Entrance
at a Houae of Worship.

An amusing incident occurred In a
certain Nashville church last Sunday,
during the regular morning services.
The worthy pastor had chosen for his
text the words: “Why could we not
cast him out?” and used
them to Illustrate the
lack of faith possessed by
certain* of the disciples,
who had endeavored to
cure a boy,- brought to
them by his father, and
'L
characterized as being “a
lunatic and possessed of evil spirits,”
but found themselves unable to cope
with the difficulty. When the devil
was cast out later by the Master they
were much surprised to think they
bad not b&amp;n able to accomplish the
same result, their aurprise prompting
tbe query emtiodied In the text.
The pastor expatiated at some
length on their lack of faith, which
had been'the cause of their failure.
Toward the cloa&lt;of the sermon, as the
hour for Sabbath school approached,
several cf the younger peop’e began
dropping in. The speaker had paused
for a brief moment in his remarks,
then referring to tb« open l»ook before
him commenced again with the follow­
ing word**. “And there came a girl
flilea with an evil spirit.” His voice
fell at the close of the sentence, and
Just at that momenta well-known and
most estimable young lady from the
south side entered tbe door, passed
quietly up the aisle and took a seat.
The pastor went on with his remarks,
but an amused smile played around
his mouth, while those in the rear of
the auditorium, —
who had no­
tice! the entrance of the
young lady,
smiled to a
large extent, /WAV and listened
to the remain-Ry -S'N der of thedisenurse w 11 h V
J bowed heads,
while convulsive move*
ments shook
their frames
at spasmodic intervals, while the
young lady, little suspecting the cause
of the unwonted merriment, gazed n
shocked surprise at Lhe unseemly
mirth.

Men with gray hairs in their heads
like to be petted, they get so little of it.
Take the average man of fifty, and he
doesn't bear a loving word from New
Year’s day until Christmas. The
young men get to much from mothers,
slaters and other girls that they are
spoiled, and grow Impudent under it.

�ICK OF THE SEA
FAMOUS BEACON AT ED­
DYSTONE ROCK.

Of a'J lighthouses the most familiar
is the r.oU:e ’structure which proudly
rears Its head'above the dangerous
JMdystom!, wk, on tbe English
cnast. The earliest IntlmaUon of a
lighthouse on tbe Eddystone dates
back as far as 1664, when the propos­
al was made by Sir John Corp ton and
. Henry Drunker, but nothing further
transpired regarding the scheme.
The first lighthouse was built by
Henry Wlnstanley, who began h's
difficult task in 1696 and completed
. it four &gt;can later. . The structure
was of wqcd. and Wlnstanley soon
discovered that it was not strung
enough to withstand y»e terrible
storm which roll in from the Allan­
tic. Accordingly he remodeled and
strengthened it considerably* end It
. being intimated to tbe archifoct that
r-$be lighthouse would certainly be
overset, he replied that, he should
only wish to bc4bero tn the greatest
storm that ever blew.'in order to see
its effect upon the structure. His
wish was gratlffcd, fur a dreadful
lcmre-t raged io 1703, while he-and
his workmen- and lightkeepers were
In the building, which carried away
the lighthouse and its Inmates, and
all perished in the sea, the only sign
remaining being the larger ’ irons
whereby the work was fixed to the
rock. It fs regarded by the btrand
Magazine as very remarkable that at
the same time this catastrophe hap­
pened the model lighthouse at WinStanley's residence in Essex fell down
and was broken to pieces.
It being absolutely necessary, as
navigation increased, that a guiding
light should Ik* maintained upon Lbls

height of twenty-five foci above high-: huge cisterns being capable of conwaler level the tower la solid, with i talning UOgnllnns, a quantity which
the exception of a large water tank । will nut be ranch mon* than enough

the center of the lantern is 130 feet, I
tl»at Is, noarty double the bwigbt of I

compartments, as compared with I
four in Smeaton's, and all tbc nxims
have domed ceilings, their height
from floor to apex being 0 feel 9
inches, and tho diameter 1/ feet,
with the exception of‘the two oil
rooms, which are somewhat smaller.
On learning that no journalist, ins
tcn$ on describing the .Eddystone
lighthouse, had hitherto succeeded
in landing on this most difficult rock,
my eagerness to attempt the feat
was considerably emphasized. Tbe Tn* kcdtotoxe lxcbtooum -a-calm evbmsteam lug Deerhound, specially
chartered for the relief, Is in readi­

keeper, two skilled mechanics fcr the boat by me ms of a sliding crane
lighthouse repairs, and three or four working through a porthole over
visitors who arc curious to inspect either door, as well as for landFngand
the lonely sea home for which we embarking in rough weather. Then
comes the kitchen or living room,
where the small party of three cook
and cat their meals arid enjoy their
leisure moments. e
Still ascending, we reach the low
light room, devoted mainly to an ap­
paratus forgiving a white, ilxcd sub­
sidiary light. ■ The eighth compart­
ment is. the bedroom, having five
berths, two above and three below,
with cretonne curtains, and below
are cupboard/ for clothes; the two
speaking tubes ilxcd on the wall are
connected with the lantern and low
lightroom respectively, so that the
keeper on night duty can easily com­
municate with his sleeping mates
should an accident happen and as­
sistance be -required.- Considerable
space is de voted to the tqjD -p/cssure

by means of weighted rams, which,
being first raised by a pumping lever,
descend gradually” Into the oil, fore­
Inn it up the pipes into the lamps.
The chief work performed in the ser­
vice room is at night, when thd light
is going and the keeper Is on duty.

cozy sitting-room

she spoke.

am sorry I consented to their going.
The storm is rising; It is a dark,
dreary walk, and after the trouble
about Oscar, I am nervous fur them.”
Oscar, her nephew, was the one
spot of gloom haunting an otherwise
bright and glowing Christmas eve.
He had been staying at the Beverly
home for some weeks, and die and
her boys. Norman and Bob, had got
on together like tried brothers.
Three nights previous, however, a
youthful escapade among the apple
bins in Farmer Drew's barn had led
to the capture of Oscar. The Irate

“One minute ctf midnight, Bob,” b&lt;

night that will wakeup the sleepers.’
All gained lhe sccoud floor. Ar
ejaculation of concern rang froix
Bob’s lips as he groped about blindly.
“Boys!” he gasped, “it’s no use!”
“Eh?” echoed Norman. “jVhat

“'Ill* rope! It ain't here. Wf

“Mercy!”

There was a scramble' for lhe lad­

“We’ve struck it at last!" groaned
a hollow voice.
.
"
“Struck what?” demanded Bob.
“The ghosts! They're here—thc’ve
stolen lhe rope—they're ringing the
chimes themselves—-hear them! Oh,
my!" panted the affrighted youth.
Whiz—bang! Something went hurt­

unceremoniously. From above, too,
at that Tnoment, sounded a deep,
sepulchral voice.
“Avaunt! get out! get out!"

its object. The first plan, that of Ti«t
Tlotge» of Denmark, consisted in tho crea­
tion of an International silver currency
based on the variable mercantile value
of metal -in international Intercourse,
but with unlimited paying power for tho
respective countties coining iti Sir ’
William Houldsworth’s plan proposed
the creation ot an international silver
currency in the form of certificates of
deposits as a’lcgal tender in the' states
which would issue them, but not re­
deemable in gold. Tbe adoption of these
certificates would moot the objections
raised against bimetallism on the
ground of tiro inconvenience which re­
coinage would cauae in case of varia­
tion in Alue of the metal gauged by a
gold standard. In order to attain this
end Blr William Houldsworth proposed
a preliminary formation of a bimetallic
union, or, if this could not L. brought
about, at least free silver coinage in
one sufficiently strong country.
Of tho third plan it was considered
that M. Allard, o' Belgium, who had
drawn It up on the- lines of tho Windom
bill, with an international character
added*, wished to create an International
silver note not possessing the character
ot legal tender, but repayable to the
bearer In weight of silver variable ac­
cording to the fluctuations of the mar­
ket. but always representing the nomi­
nal value expressed in gold. The
states issuing such notes would have to
bear In common any posslb o loss re­
sulting from repayments In case of a
depreciation in silver.
The fourth pliin, which M. do Foville,
the French delegate, desired to encour­
age, was the practice df dej ©siting sil­
ver bullion in mints and banks of issue,
with certificates of deposit and commer­
cial warrants negotiable wfihout a le­
gal rate ora guarantee of value on the
part of government. Raffaelovitch, of
Russia, proposed to give the certificates
an International character by establish­
ing a system of warrants enabling the
bearers thereof to obtain, on delivery of
their receipts, an equal quantity of sil­
ver at all institutions which adhered to
the plan and having a stock of silver a^
disposal.
.
Representatives of tho silver-produc­
ing countries objected to this proposal
as lying outside the program of tho con­
ference. the duty of which was to study
the means of extending tho monetary
employment of t il ver.
The fifth plan, introddcod by Salneteilotio, of Belgium, and supported by
Mr. Monteflore, propoud to create re­
ceipts of deposits of gold aud sliver,
bearing such conditions that a certain
quantity of gold should be always ac­
companied by a certain quantity of
silver, the proportion of wljlch should
bo determined periodically by an inter­
national commission, which twin de­
posits would be effected In order to be
represented by certificates, the market

Tho report proceeds to reproduce the
arguments for and against these plans
and asked whether tho marriage of the
two metals would not be an artificial
one, and whether the conventional sys­
tem would meet tho?e requirements of

things, the simplest possible solution ot
the problem. On the other hand, it is
urged that variations In the price ot sil­

According to the statements of .Ohlcago detectives who have been engaged
for over four Tionths in hunting tho
nianufaciurera of counterfeit lottery
tickets, a stupendous scheme for de­
frauding lottery ticket purchasers ha*
been discovered. In,-every city, town
and village in Canada, Michigan, Indi­
ana, Illinois and the Northwest the
members of a gan^bave operated their
clover swiMle for about a year and
have come out of the game heavy winnets. In all of those places persons
live who think themselves bom under a
constellation of lucky stars and several
comets, and at every change of tbo
moon they havo ma-jo Id vestments in
lottery tickets. It was to accommodate
these persons that the men who are
claimed to constitute an unlawful gang
have been working. But the tickets
thov sold were for drawings that never
took place.
Tbe end ot the business camo when a
pto.t for the manufacture of lottery
tickets was discovered at 281 and 283
Clark street, and Jacob B. Stanger, tho
proprietor, was arrested and charged
with forgery. The arrest is the outcome
of die work of four months by the doteetiics, who took uo the &lt; use after W.
T. Henderson, ot Baltimore, attorney
for the Louieina Lottery company, had
done some wortf in tho hope of detect­
ing the. defrauders. It is believed by
officern'ot tho Louisiana company tho
firstyssue of counterfeit tickets
made
a year ago, and since then and up to
the Issue ot Avgust last the northern
tier of States, the West, and Canada
have been flooded with these tickets.
The market having been kept well supplied, their sale at $1 each has netted
the counterfeiters a neat sum.
Tho men interested in this scheme
have not confined their talents to tbe
Louisiana company, but have issued
tickets, it is claimed, on a number of
companies that do not exist The de­
tectives confiscated at the Stanger shop
a find lithographic press, about 10,000
Mantanza tickets. December issue; 40,­
000 Vera Cruz tickets of December and
January Issue, several large sheets of
Louisiana tickets without the numbers
and twenty engraving stones and several numbering machines. The plant is
valued at $5,000. Th3 Vera Cruz tickets
were sold largely in the northwestern
part of Chicago, the Mantama tickets
over bars in the&lt;ountry towns ot Michlgan, Indiana. Illinois, and Iowa, while
the Louisiana tickets went into Canada,

CHRISTMAS OBSERVANCE IN THE
VARIOUS OHUROHH8.

Synopala of What Will Bo Done to
pelebrate thio Happiest of HoliIdaya in Nashville.
,

The churches of Nashville always
take care that at Christmas time the
children of. the Sunday schools at­
tached to the various churches have
cause to remember from year to year
the celebration of the Christmas sea­
son, by giving some entertainment for
their benefit, and in which they figure
largely. This year will be no excep­
tion, for preparations have been in
progress for some time in all the
Churches for a proper celebration of
the event of Christ’s birth, and below
we give a synopsis of what has and
will be done:

The Methodlst&gt; Sunday school Js
busy getting feady tor Christmas, and
to-n«&lt;rfrow evening expect to eclipse
"all former occasions. Both teachers
and scholars have been working hard
the past week, in decorating the
church, and in adding something here
and there over tbe Interior uf the
fhurcb to make It more beautiful and
or the comfort and pleasure of those
• -who may be so fortunate as to attend
the exercises to-morrow evening, and
to witness the grand sights. An im­
mense evergreen tree has been secured
for a Christmas tree, and everybody In
the village or vicinity that have pre*ients and wish to hang them on the
tree are welcome to do so. As is tbelr
custom, tbe M. E. Sunday school of
©ur village have always commemo­
rated this occasion in fitting style, but
this year they Intend to outdo all for­
mer events and make to-morrow eve­
ning one never to be forgotten by the
little ones that will be there. One of
the leading features will be the offer­
ing at the door, which will be as fol­
lows: No admittance will be charged,
but all who wish can bri ng something,
such‘as a few potatoes or apples, or, in
fact, anything that you may feci like
giving, which will all be distributed
the next day to those of our city who
have been unfortunate the past year
and are unable to have a merry Christ­
mas. The program that has been pre­
pared by the school will be found be­
low. as nearly correct as is possible for
us to give as we go to press:
Music, by school.

tosh.

Music, School.
The Congregational Sunday school
will celebrate Christmas-at the church
this evening by having an immense
snow house, with Santa Claus coming
down through the chimney to distrib­
ute the gifts to all the children and
grown folks. Never before has the
Sunday school made such extensive
preparations for the pleasure of the
HUI- |&gt;eople. A short literary and
musical program will Imj held at the
beginning and some of their best tal­
ent will contribute to make this
merry time one long to be remembered
In the hlstorv of the Sunday school.
The Evangelical Sunday school is
preparing a grand program for their
Christmas entertainment, to be given
Saturday evening. The exercises will
'begin at 7 p. m.; doors open at 6.30 p.
m. The entertainment will consist of
two parts: one, the choicest parte of
une of Prof. Ogden’s famous Christ­
mas cantatas; the second will be rec­
itations, dialogues, etc., by the little
folks. To assure all who will come of
a grand time, is to say Prof. French,
late of Eaton Rapids, is the musical
instructor and general trainer of the
occasion. It is the aim of all to Im­
prove by far all entertainments ever
given in Nashville. Miss Ada Web­
ster will be organist; Eddie White will
have charge of the chorus, assisted by
”
'hel Wilkinson, who will lead
oprano. The chorus consists
-s than fifty voices, who will
sing with enhancing melody,

The officers of the Baptist Sunday

but it is their intention to have a
Christmas gathering on Friday eve­
ning, at whlchothe principal feature

presents will be drawn. The evening's
enjoyment will be added to by songs,

WHAT DO YOU THIN KT

There has been considerable talk
upon our streets during tbc past ten
days over tho assessments levied upon,
and the amount of taxes collected from
the Lentz Table Co. Tbe plant of
the company was not assessed, either
by township supervisor Roe or by
village assessor McDerby, the one a
Democrat, the other a Republican,
while tbe personal property was as­
sessed by-each at $4,000. Some of our
citizens have been kicking and. en­
deavoring to work up public sentiment
against letting this concern off so
easily, claiming that the company Is
making money and can afford to pay
taxes as well as anybody else. This
may be, and probably is, true. Ou
the other hand, Tilk News believes
there is another side to the question.
The Lenta factory has done a great
deal the past year toward building
up our village and giving employ­
ment to our laboring men. They em­
ploy a large number of men, and pay
good wages, their pay roll amounting
to $1,100 per month. All this directly
helps Nashville as a town and indi­
rectly helps every Individual it it. But
the Lentz factory has never cost Nash­
ville a penny, either in shape of bonus,
laud or otherwise.
They have a
standing offer from Lhe city of Mus­
kegon, who will pay them enough to
cover tbe cost oi ground and build­
ings, moving of machinery from Nash­
ville to Muskegon, and leave them a
nice sum of money besides. Is there a
citizen of Nashville who would like to
see their assessment raised high
enough to drive them into accepting
Muskegon's generous offer? If tbe
Lentz factory is worth 96,000 or $7,000
to Muskegon, where they have numer­
ous factories, is It not worth some­
thin^ td us, wtv- have so few?
Supposing some company should
come to Nashville to-morrow and say,
"we wili put another factory in Nashvillv, to employ as many men ' as the
Lentz factory, at good - wages, provid­
ing you will exempt us from taxation
entirely for twenty years."
Hox
many citizens of Nashville would vote
against accepting the proposition?
They would be talien up on their offer
In very short order. The Lentz peo­
ple do Dot ask this, but they do feel
th’-.t under all the existing circum­
stances their assessment should be as
light an possible. *
□ Is it not good business sense to be
lenient on taxes with this institution,
which Is doing so much for our village,
rather than to drive them and their
employes to some other location?
TROUBLE AHEAD.

John McIntosh, of this village, and
Andrew Dooling,of West Vermontville,
are going against each other1 lu the
courts ot Justice over a sheep deal, and
there promises to be a lively row be­
fore It is settled. It seems that some
time since McIntosh went out to
Dooling's and contracted for quite a
nufnber of sheep, to be delivered here
last Saturday, aud paid Dooling $10.00
to bind the bargain. When Saturday
arrived Mr. Dooling came down with
the sheep, but when he came to deliv­
er them Slclntosh refused to accept
them, saying that what be contracted
for was lambs, not over a year old,
and demanded his money back from
Dooling. Tbe latter refused to give
up tbe money, claiming that McIn­
tosh looked over tbe flock and offered
a certain price, which was accepted,
and that nothing whatever was said
about the ages of the sheep.
He
claims to have witnesses who will sub­
stantiate his story, and who heard the
whole bargain. McIntosh went before
Justice Felghner and brought suit
against Dooling to recover the money
advanced. Tbe hearing was set for
Wednesday, but McIntosh was not
ready for business and the case was
adjourned to next Tuesday. Mr. Dool­
ing Is verv indignant over the matter,
and says It the first time In his life he
ever bad papers of any kind served on
him. The hearing promises to be In­
teresting.

NOVEL TRAVELING OUTFIT.

1800,
Congress was onened in Washington
City. The «iifire in which they then
assembled, which was part ially burned
by the British in 1314. and which,
during late years, has been enlarged,
is now the United States Capitol, and
the eighth in sn?ccsdon nimc tha
Declaration of Independence.

Washington has been fo long asso­
ciated with the idea of government
that ma'i.y believe It to be the only,
•eat of government our country has
ever had. Yet the United States has
had a anccesstcn of s*-aM of governmeat, and many buildings In different
cities were the temporary capitols of
tbe nation.
In 1754 the earliest attempts at a
union .&lt;&gt;L British-Americ in colonies
was made In the city of Albany. New
York, which city was the second old­
est settlement in the original thirteen
colonies. - The object of this union
was defense against the Indians. In

there became the third NationalCapitol. July 2, 1778, Congress again met
in Philadelphia ,and remained , there
during the varying fortunes of the
war, which virtually ended with tho
capture of Cornwallis, Oct. 19,1781.'
Two years later discontented Ameri­
can troops menaced Philadelphia and
Congress

in accordance with an agreement
that it should meet alternately at

Continental Congress held its last

The pauper population of the Uni­

shows that we not only bad a larger
number of paupers and delinquents
generally in 1890 than in J880 but
that the proportion of "people who
had to be helj ed or In some way tak­
en care of has been Increasing.
This is a me ancholy revelation,
and one which should set people to
thinking. We have had, as a whole,
times of plenty during tho fast ten
years. Tl c Ipcrlt-d h s b.*cn one of

Has It been too &gt;easy a matter to
obtain this help? There are many
students nnd close observers of this
subject who think it ha*.
The appetite fur “help" of some
kind grows by what it feeds on. If
one has got something without pay­
ing or working for it, ho demands
more on the same terms.
One who has had a free ticket od
a railroad, or a free admission to an
entertainment, never wishes to pay
again. Ic is precisely thus with the
more open and undisguised form of
alms called public assistance.
The needy, incapable poor should
be well taken care of, but let us, as a
people, beware of enfeeblingounelves
by indiscriminate charily.

A century ago there were only four­
teen newspapers in London.
Two centuries and syren different
men claim lhe invention of gunpow-

then known as Federal Hall. This
building was
removed
in 1812.
Thus
the
city
of
New
York
was the first capital of the United
States under the present constitu­
tion. New York was then the abode
of Washington and Adams, Hamilton
and Jefferson, Clinton and Carroll.

Massachusetts shed the first blood at
Lexington and Concord. May 10,
1775, the second Continental Con­
gress convened in lhe colonial State
House, Philadelphia. An %rmy was
provided for, the command was given
to Washington and, July 4, the Dec­

A new departure In tbe methods of
filtering a public water supply was
recently, devised for use In the City
of Worms, Germany, and is now In
successful oporat'on. Tbewaurfor
this place is drawn from the Rhine
River, and was formerly filtered by
passing It through large beds of sand.
It became ncce sjry to increase the
purifying capacity of the plant, ow­
ing to lhe growth of the city, and as
land was expensive, the ffu; erintend.ent of the works. Dr. F. Fisher, ac­
cordingly advised a system of stone
slabs, formed by heating clean river
sand with a silicate of lime and soda,
which cemented the parts together,
through which the water filtered.
Each slab was 3} feet square and 4
Inches thick, with a slight cavity on
one face. In order to use them an
area of about 2,930 feet was parti­
tioned off from tbe existing filter­
bed by a concret wall. On this area
978 of tho stone slabs, having a supeHlclal extent of over 10,500 square
feet, were arranged vertically in
group) of two stones, Joined with
their recessed sides together and the
edges made water-tight. Tho slabs
arc extremely porous; they are Aid
to absorb water like a sponge, and tho
filtration takes place by allowing the
water to run into the basin aud sur­
round tbo slabs. It then passes
through the stone to the hollow with­
in, whence it is drained off to-the
clear water reservoir and pumped .to
the city. In case bacteria were to
lodge in the pores of the slabs, pipes
have been so arranged that steam can
be injected Into the Interior of each
pair of stones, a method which the
authorities in charge of the works
regard as highly efficacious and Inex­
pensive. In this way engineers, not
nymphs, have answered the famous
query of Coleridge:

third of its regular rcsslons In Phila­
delphia in December. There it conlinu-.d to meet, awaiting the comple­
tion of lhe r.ew building, until
May, 1800.
Philadelphia, so long
the capital under the Continental
Congress and tbe articles of confeder­
ation, was again the capital under
the constitution, thus giving her the
claim to have been the seat of gov­
ernment under every form since the
colonies threw off th-- British yoke.

The Butte correspondent of the
Anaconda Standard gives the follow­
ing Interesting account of a novel
traveling outfit now going through
Montana: “Vivian Edwards, a crip­
ple from Hastings, Neb., is making
one of the most remarkable trips
across tho country that was ever un­
dertaken. 1114 Ion ; Journey started
nt Hastings Just 130 days ago, and
during that time he has traveled 1,654
miles. Helsa crljplc, having lost
the Use of his kgs, and travels in a
miniature buggy drawn by a four-inhand of milk-white Rocky Mountain
goats, ami carries a complete camping
outfit with him.
The entire outfit­
weighs 55G pounds, which tho goats
pull with case, and have made thirtytwo miles in one day, although the
usual day’s journey averages from
twelve to sixteen tulles, which dis­
tance the goats accomplish with case.
Some portions ot his trip have been
arduous In tl c .extreme. Between
Ham's Fork and Montpelier, in Wy­
oming, he took the' wrong road and
was lost in the desert, and fjr three
days suffered intense'? for want of
water, as all the water himself and
animals had was what was contained
Ina beer bottle.
Another time in
Southern Utah he was comp lied to
fight three bears, who were deter­
mined to dine off Ills fonr-in-hanji,
but after a haul tlzht, during which
he killed two of the bears, he was
enabled to pursue his way.
“Edwards is. an intelligent fellow
and a pleasant talker and takes a
cheerful view of Uro. although al­
most helpless. Me is accompanied by
his wife and two little girls, one 4
and the-other 7 years of age.. His
wife,.who Isa graduate of nv’dlclnc.
takes copious notes of their trip,
which will 1x3 utilized in writing a
book descriptive of the sights seen
during their
remarkable Journey
across the continent, their objective
point being San Francisco. Edwards
states upon his arrival here to-mor-’
row he will pay a visit of respect to
Sheriff Lloyd, and will drive his team
up the Court House steps Into the
Sheriff's office and then down again
to the street.
Edwards, who is a
very clever violinist, will probably
give a concert lie fore leaving the city
on bis long trip, which is surely a
plucky undertaking for one so help­
less."

Like most thing) in China, lhe
practice of surgery differs considera­
bly from that in vogue in less en­
lightened Western countries. Bone­
setting In the Celestial Empire is a
complicated affair,
and doubtless
more efficacious than European meth­
ods. In setting a fractured limb the
surgeon docs not attempt to bring
the bones together, but merely wraps
t*ie limb in red clay, Inserting some
strips of bamboo Into the flay. These
strips are swatiied in bandages and
in the outer bandage the head of a
live chicken Is placed. Here comes In
the superior science of-the Celestial.
After the bandage has been secured
tho fowl is beheaded and Its blocd is
allowed to penetrate the fracture, for
It nourishes the fractured limb and Is
“hcapguod medicine.'*
Tho Stonkffv ut Apple*.
A ioom with h good draught of
air through it, and with shelves all
round the walla, made of laths of
wood two or three inches apart, or
perforated zinc nailed on a frame­
work of wood, is best for the stomg^
of app'es. Do not let them touch
each other, and if they have a’r all
round them, they will be in gcod con­
dition when other fruit is rotten. (If
course they must have teen carefully
picked by hand from the tree, the
bruised ones being used tint. Sdme
varieties will keep three or four
months longer than others, and these
should be carefully looked after.
By
looking over tbe apples once a week,
and taking fl way any that show symp­
toms of decay, the winter stock of
fruit will amply repay care and atten­
tion.

CHAPTKK Xn-Conthmed.
There was a dreary lapse of slldnco,
bu'. during fta reign the gleaming, acln' tlilaut eyes of Beatrice Mercer told that
thetr o*ne.r was not idle.
She was thinking, plotting, pr paring
to oct. Her quick mind grasped the

anticipated, rod which she had come

systematlrally. This was but the first
•tep. Oh! she could not fail.
She aros.* and stole to the door; she
peered in. There sat tho stern-faced,
luipla?«bie lawyer, the fatal documents
spread out before him. There, too.
wan-fa2M, wretchel, lost, shrank the
father of Baymond Mershall.
She stepped lx&gt;Mly across the thresh­
old of the room.
Not until she had
reached the tab'e and her shadow fell
•cross it did lawyer and victim glance
up, with a vivid start.
•
"Madam!—why------ ’ began the former.
"I have come to purchase those docu­
ments."
Her hand pointed to the pile of notes
and.»erarities, almost touching them.
In profound wonderment tho lawyer re­
garded her. With a gasp of hope, sus­
pense, dread. Colonel Marshall stared
at h -r veiled fac •.
“You have come------ " repeated the
lawyer, vaguely.
"To buy those documents!”
'"XV hy—I do not understand —by what
right.*
"Are they for sale?"
Her voice ra g out sharply.
“To Colonel Marshall or h's author­
ized agent, yes, but to a stranger------ "
Beatrice Mercer turned (o the towildeic i Colonel.
"I am no stranger, but n friend," she
half-whfspcred in his dumfouu led ear.
"I came to save you,’and then aloud:
"Colonel Marshall, you authorize me to
act for you?".
The half-stunned Colonel could.only
nod like an automaton.
“Ten thou-an'l dollars is the amount,
I believe," went on Beatrice, calmly.
“There is tjie money. Bee that it is
right.”
She had flashed a heap of bank-note i
of large denominations before iho law­
yer's sight She took up the papers vn
the table.
“This Is the forged $2,0?0 note, I be­
lieve?” she said, selecting ono from the
many papers,
"Colonel Marshall. It
shall never trouble you again."
With two twists of her dainty tut
supple wrists, she severed tho fatal doc­
ument in twain.
"These other papers I shall keep for
a day or two. The amount Is correct?"
she d man led of the lawyer. "Colonel
Marshall, you are free from debt and
dread alike. I trust we all know how
to keep a secret. -1 would like to speak
a few words to you alone."
Tho lawyer bad witnessed some
strange scenes in his professional ca­
reer. but thr. denouement of the present
Inexplicable oue left him speechless.
Colonel Marshall, like one in adream,
followed the woman who had myste­
riously saved him from ruin and dis­
honor from the room.
Then, realizing that ho had been
sna!&lt; bed from the briuk of a precip ce.
he reeled t© a table in tho outer office
for support and burst into tears.
"Woman, angelic deliverer!" he fairly
sobbed.
"Who sent you here? You
have MV_d to me all I hold dear on
earth. My tears, my prayers shall be
your.v till my last breath. I shall teach
my «wu to reverence you. I &lt;-hali re­
pay you dollar for dollar. What can I

"Cna single fnvo ."
'Name it—oh! name it"
“Ask no questions, feel no obligations.
I only ask that to-morrow even ng at
dusk you come to the hotel and to the
apartments of Miss Leslie, and bring
your son Raymond with you."
She was gone like a flash with the
words. The Colonel stood staring after
her a? if she were some wraith. His
eyes closed and he swayed like one In
a dream. Ho hastened after bur a min­
ute later to demand a more lucid exSlaiation of .her strange intercession &lt;n
tt behalf, but when be reached the
a'roet, like the fairy in the story-books,
sh« had disappeared utterly.
Beatrice Mercer hod hastened back.to
toe hotel. Her face was flushed, her
eyes hopeful, exultant, as she laid aside
“bo far all is well." she murmured,
confidently. "Now for the most difficult
part of the plot."
When Dr. Simms came, she led him to
a sofa, and for over an hour in low,
•arnest tones she conversed with him.
She (old him all her plot, all her deShe startled him with her to dnatoand shrewdness, the dazzled him
with the promise of munificent rewords.
"What a scheme:" ho ejaculated,
arising at last, "and all for the love of a

Beatrice, is
the game worth the rnndle?"
“1 will hove it so!" she cried, wildly.
“Without Baymond Marshall, what is i

"To the last!"
" You can give me the medicine to pro- j

OYSTER SHELLS.

Il lias Iwen estimafeed that 23,000.­
000 bushel* uf oysters are opened an­
nually in lhe United States, and that
this represents an accumulation of
shells amounting to not less than 243000,(MX) cubic feet* which if spread out
would cover a space of more than 450,­
000 yards square to a depth of three
feet.
Np doipd a majority of persons who
have asssted In eating the oysters
contained In this enormous amount of
shells seldom give a thought of what
becomes of these rough, uncouth cov*
erings. A few, perhaps. If questioned
on the subject, would be likely to re­
ply that the only way In which they
had seen them utilized was in filling
up and making roads, embankments
and wharves.
Nevertheless this Is but one of their
inanv uses, as they are extensively
employed in making “stools” for new
oyster l&gt;eds by spreading them on the
bottom uf the bays and other bodies
of water in which oysters arc propa­
gated, thus forming a bed upon which
spawu settles and grows Into matur­
ity.
They are also converted Into
lime, serve as ballast for vessels and
made Into fertilizers.
In addiisoiin to th they play an Im
portatit iu the-jwultry yard, where In
;a powdered form they are much
1sought after by .those engaged In rais­
ing fowls uf every kind.
The early colonists used nothing but
,oyster shell lime, and in many parts
,
of
New England there still exist
mills and klms devoted entirely to the
industry of converting the shells Into
