SIGNIFICANT PREPARATIONS AT TIL

SIGNIFICANT PREPARATIONS AT THE
BROOKLYN NAVY YARD.-The iron-clad
Dictator and the steam frigate Severn
have been equipped and coaled, and are
lying at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, in ex-
pectation of orders from Washington at
any moment to hoist anchors and pro-
ceed to the island of Cuba. The oues-
ton. from this and other signs OF the
times, on both sides Of the Atlantic, is
evidently comingt to head.
New York Herald, 21.
The colored longshoremen Of Charles.
ton are on o strike. An arrangement
was entered into, by which the strikers
were to go to work, when just as they
had commenced, they suddenly deserted.
A white man, whp was employed on O
vessel was ordered to atop, and because
he paid no attentioh to the Command, he
was seized by several of othablacks, and
an effort made to throw, him ,overboani,
which was prevented by party Of gen,
tlemen who were looking on.

Some French soldiers-were lately taken
prisoners by the Canaks, and one of them
was killed and eaten. His comrades de-
scribe the process. The Canaks first de-
capitate their victim-a matter of no
small difficulty, considering the blunt
ness of their hatchets. Ten to fteen
blows arc necessary. The body is then
hung up to tree by the feet, and the
blood allowed to run out for an hour.
Meanwhile, q hole yard and half deep
a.. O yard wide is dug in the ground.
The hole is lined with stones, and then
in the midst of them great fire is Lit.
When the wood is burnt down little,
and glows with heat, it is covered with
more stones. The man is then cleaned
out, and divided into pieces about foot
long. the hands and feet being thrown
away as worthless. The pieces of the
man are placed on the leaves of q large
rose tree, peculiar to the tropics. Tho
meat is surrounded with cocoanuts, ba-
nanas, and some other plants noted for
their delicate flavor. The whole is then
tied together firmly, the fire is removed
from the pit, the meat 'is placed in
among the hot stones, and thus CAREFUL
ly covered, is left to cook for an hour.

THE TRoVBLE SICKLEs AS MAKING FOR
Us.-The New York World is showing
the folly OF sending such man as Sickles
to Spain, at 80 critical conjuncture as
this It saye:
"Sickles is on arrant demagogue, and
what is worse, demagogue with lost
character to redeem; and he fancies that
championing the cause of the Cubans is
the most promising expedient for catch
ing applause. While, in his official
action. he cannot go beyond his instruc-
tions, he has borne himself in such
manner as to provoke agreat outburst of
belligerent feeling, and has demonstrated
his utter unfitnesa to be the agent of
pacific policy. We have all along pro-
tested against the Government sneaking
into q war with Spain; and of all mean
ways of sneaking into war, perhaps the
most objectionable and cowardly, is by
sending an offensive minister with friend.
ly instructions. The Administration
dares not avow that it means anything
but peace; but itselected minister who,
III spite Of prudent instructions, has
proved to ba ire-brapd."
AS to the Oubans, the World has no
doubt but the American people wish them
success, at the same time that nine out
OF every ten among US would deprecate q
war with Spain. In such war, the edi-
tor thinks we would, of course, conquer
Cuba within three months, and should
never give.up the conquest; but as Cuba
is certain to fall 20 us in time, without
war, lit is added there is 10 good reason
why we should desire its immediate an
nexation.

LABELLING TREEs.-At a meeting Of
the Institute of Technology held in Bos-
ton, Hon. NJ. P. Wilder made statement
relative to new method of labelling
trees, accidentally discovered by him.
In the use of zine labels which were the
most durable in character, an indelible
ink was used but not having the ink at
hand ON one occasion, he wrote upon the
zinc with a lead pencil. This writing,
although it could not be rubbed off when
first made, grew more distinct and dura-
BILE with age, and after several years
could not be erased except by scraping.

SOLAR ECLIPSE Astronomers are
making extensive preparations for OBJ
serving the total eclipse of the sun, which
will occur on the 7th of August. 1t is
the only total eclipse that will be visible
in North America during the present
century. AT Boston the event will hap
pen about sunset. The centre Of the
line of totality passes through the city
of Springfield, Illinois, and quite near
Des Moines City, Iowa. Both of these
stations, as well as many others, will be
occupied by Coast Survey parties. Con
gress has appropriated $4,000 to defray
the expense Of observations. Prof. Win.
lock, Director of Harvard Observatory
is making arrangements for viewing the
eclipse and noting its feature at Shelby
vile, Ky. The observation will last be-
tween two and three minutes.

ORANGES FILLED WITH JEILY.-This
is one of the fanciful dishes SO accepta.
BILE on supper table when variety is de,
sired. Take some good oranges and cut
from the top round abont the size of a
shilling. then with the small end of a
tea spoon empty them entirely, taking
care not to break the rinds. Throw the
rinds into cold water and make jelly Of
the Juice of the oranges which must be
well pressed from the pulp and strained
clear. Color one half fine pink from
prepared cochineal and leave the other
very pale. When the jelly is nearly
cold drain and wipe the orange rinds and
fill them with alternate stripes Of the
two jellies. When perfectly cold quar-
ter and arrange the oranges ON your
plates. Any other jelly or blanc-msnge
may be used to fiji the rinds taking care
however, to use contrasting colors.
For A CoUGH. Roast lemon with
out burning it. When entirely hot,
squeeze the juice into cup on three
ounces of finely powdered sugar. Take
teaspoonful whenever you cough. 1t
will scarcely ever fail to give relief.
An experienced paperer states that
turpentine mingled in the paste at the
time of papering, is a sure remedy
against bugs and insects of all kinds in
walls that are papered.
FLAX SEED SYRUP.-This excellent
remedy for cough is made thus +: Boil
one ounce of aax-seed in quart of wa
ter for half an hour strain and add to
the liquid the juice of tive lemons and
a half pound of rock candy. If the
cough is accompanied by weakness and
loss of appetite, add half an ounce of
gum arabic. Set this to simmer for
half an hour, stirring it occasionally
Take wine-glass full when the cough is
troublesome.

A WORD TO FARMERS first
thing for farmer to find out is, what
crops grow best on his soil. Then let
him not be discouraged by low prices for
year or two. If he has grass farm,
let him make butter right along, even if
some weeks it does not bring him out
twenty-five cents. Let him persevere
and continue to send a fine article to
town, and before the year is out he will
get forty.fve cents. So with potatoes,
or hogs, or cheese. Farmers differ more
in skill as marketers, than in industry
as roducers.-Hearth and Home.

A TRICK ON DEADHEADs.-A Dubu-
que tobacco merchant having been bored
long time by deadheads, quietly re-
moved the jar of fine cut to another
place, and in lieu thereof introduced one
of the same size partly filled with molas-
ses. As usual, says the Herald, the to-
bacco chewers came around. They
edged up to the counter in the usual rou-
tine, reached over and soused their fists
into the molasses, whereupon they sneak
ed out, wiping their hands on their coat
tails and breeches-legs, all the while
keeping mum" but kept up terrible
thinking. Those acquainted with the
plot were watching the manauvering
from distance, and not until at least a
dozen or more of the chewers" got
sweetened did the joke leak out

COUGH BALSAM.

This long tried and popular Remedy is again called
to the attention of the public As often as the year
rolls around. the proprietors annually make their
bow to the people, and remind them that amongs
the many things required for the health, comfort

tedious months of winter Goes Cough Balsam should
not be forgotten For years it has been household
medicine-and mothers anxious for the safety Of
their children and all who suffer from any disease
of the throat chest and lungs, cannot afford TO be
without it. In addition to the ordinary four ounce
