A FAMILY at Keoseuqua, Iowa, went
visiting the other evening, leaving good
fire in the stove so as to have it nice and
warm when they returned. This arrange
ment succeeded admirably, for they could
not get within two blocks of the house
upon their return, owing to the crowd
and intense heat of the building.

lice, who had On. that morning set fire
to the Prefecture, presented himself at
the prison1 and demanded six prisoners
whom the Commune intended to shoot.
In retaliation, they alleged, for the death
OF six Communists killed by the troops.
The Victims selected were MsEr. Darboy,
the venerable Archbishop OF Paris, the
President Bouiean. the Able Allard,
Peres Ducoudray, Clerc and Deguerry.
The entirely innocent priests were
grossly insulted by the National Guards
and conducted in front of the infirmary
OF the prison. where they were shot.
Several other tragedies OF scarcely less
melancholy character was enacted here
during those times. Had the contest
been protracted single day, all the pri-
soners Of the Commune would have
been murdered by the con~icts which
they liberated aud armed for that pur-
pose. Opposite this prison is the House
OF Correction for children. Between

no very hot days and no remarkably

breezes have been inyigorating, rather
than soorching and depressing. This is
all the more worthy Of notice, since it
was SO entirely unexpected. OF late
years, the summers have been 80 uni

TIE LABOR QuEsT1oN-THE STRIKE
OF THE MILL aANDs.-The strikers
made good the threats made by them on
Monday, and succeeded yesterday in
putting o stop to the work at most Of
the mills in the city. At an early hour
yesterday morning, they assembled in q
body, each man armed with the usual
weapon. club, and proceeded upon
their crusade. The crowd was very
turbulent, and induiged freely in
threats; but in point of numbers, it was
far from STRONG. It consisted of about
twenty men and as many vagabond
boys-that class Of boys who have been
at the bottom of every riot that has
ever occurred in Charleston. The result
of tho days work may BE briefly summed
up as follows: Five large mills have
ceased work, and nearly 500 persons
have been thrown out OF employment
O neat days work for mob of about
thirty men and twenty five or thirty
boys. During the day. however, there
were no further acts uf violence COM
mitted. The hands who had been
driven from work were disposed to
grumble, but being thoroughly fright
e1ed by the mob, were content to loaf
about ldling. Late in the afternoon,
there were rumors of compromise, but
they could be traced to no reliable
source. It is more than probable that
tho workmen are getting tired Of being
bullied by the mob, and are willing to
have u talk with the employers, to see if
some arrangement cannot be made to
bridge over the troubles. It is stated
that committee of the workmen will
meet similar committee from the mill.
owners this morning, and discuss the
practicability OF arranging terms which
will be satisfactory to both.

h. Stolz & Bro, 30S Second street,
have machine for making ice cream,
which is the most ingenious, and, we
think, by far the best now in use. II
was invented BY Thos. Mills & Bro, Of
the United States Confectionery Tool
Work, Philadelphia, where all the best
machines for that business are manufac-
tured. Stolz & Bro. inform us that they
are now prepared to furnish cream in
any quantity, at very low figures, and OF
a quality not to be equaled in this city.
They also keep constantly on hand a
full assortment of the fines. CONNECTIONS,
comprising every article to be had in
that line; also the best brands of wines,
brandies and other liquors, Havana cigars
imported, green and dried fruits, nuts,
pickles, preserves, and hundreds of other
Injuries we cannot here enumerate.
These gentlemen are both practical con-
fectioners, having been brought up from
boyhood in the business. Our lady
friends will find there cosy retreat,
where they can be supplied with the most
delicious ice cream, soda water, straw
berries and the very best of everything
in their line. Remember that all these
good things are to be had of r. Stolz &
