The duties Of the deteetine corps have been
very satisfactorily performed during the year.
Much valuable property which has been lost or
stolen has been recovered and restored to owners.
Marked success has also resulted from their
efforts TO ferret out criminals and furnish evil
denee for their conviction and punishment. With
one or two exceptions no professional thieves have
visited the District for he purpose Of plying their
vacations; fact which speaks we'll for the
efficiency and honesty Of the corps. Were profess
sional thieves in the habit Of making our CON-
munity place wherein to despoil our citizens OF
property, there would be cause to doubt either
the efficiency or honesty Of this corps.
LICENSES FOR LIQUOR SELLING.
Under the provisions Of the third section Of the
has made the following disposition Of applications
made for the approval Of licenses for the retail
sale Of intoxicating liquors during the past year,
viz: Number Of applications made, 419; number
Of applications approved, $40; number OF applica-
tions disapproved, 90; number OF transfers ap-
proved, 10.
The number Of applications made this year is l
more than last year; the number approved is 81
less than last year; the number OF disapproVed Is
81 more than last year, and the number Of trans
fers approved is y less this year than last
The board embraces this opportunity Of again
stating. as it has in several previous annual re-
ports, that under the operations OF our laws IL IS
found impossible to prevent the sale Of intoxi-
eating liqHors without license. The better class
Of saloon keepers obtain licenses. while q very
large number Of low shops sell the vilest kinds
OF liquors without license. Numerous complaints
are entered at the Police Court, arrests made an
convictions obtained In that court, bSt In almost
every Instance an appeal is noted which must be
allowed. The appeal IL certified TO the Criminal
Court, where it comes before jury, when,
from one cause OF another an acquittal Is the re-
suit in most instances. This evil will go on and

Everybody is to be able to wear dia-
monds now, as process has been IN
vented, we are told, for the manufsc-
ture of pure artificial diamonds from
benzine-not the kind meant In our pO-
lice reports when we say q man has in
bibed too much benzine, but the genu-
inc article. Benzine is introduced into
, glass shell about six inches in thick
ness, and capable of standing enormous
pressure. Another substance having a
strong affinity for hydrogen, but the
name of which is kept secret, is intro
duced with it. The poles Of moder-
ately stro.g battery are also introduced,
and the whole hermetrically sealed.
As decomposition takes place slowly,
the hydrogen unites with the substance
for which it has affinity, and pure, col
orless carbon is set free, and in course
of time forms in the shape of diamonds
of various sizes on the interior sides OF
the glass shell. The. only question is,
if the hydrogen unites with the secret
substance introduced, for which it has
an affinity, and the carbon is set free.
whence is derived the enormous pres
sure which is claimed to be essential
to the success of the process? Unless
perchance this substance is also decom-
posed and sets free another gas which
has no affinity for carbon.

How Ro KEEP FURs.-A housekeeper
writes would say in reply to the
question "How shall keep furs ?''
that purchased set of one of the
leading fur houses of Chicago three
years ago and made that inquiry there
and was told that they always sealed
theirs up before the first of May (that
being the month in which the moth
miller commits its depredations.) Put
your furs into their box and with good
paste or nucilage fasten strip of
paper over the crack left between the
lid and box and put them in your closet.
You need not entertain fears that the
fall will find them anything but safe
and free from the unpleasant oders that
tobacco, camphor, ETC., always leave.

PARsSIPs.-When parsnips are first
taken from the ground they are not In
condition to be eaten, but should al
ways be allowed to lie in the cellar
from four to six weeks to cure, freely
exposed to the air. If wilted they will
be so much the sweeter and more tooth
some. The Hollow Crown variety
should in all cases be selected. Nice
cakes can be made in this manner :
Crate raw parsnip, mix with it an equal
quantity Of bread crumbs, add two
or three eggs, seasoning to taste, add
milk to make the ingredients into cakes,
and fry them in butter light brown,
over a slow fire.

To POLISH CUFFS AND SHIRT FRONTS.
Procure at the hardware stores a
polishing iron, that with bulge at both
ends is the best, and will cost 81. Iron
the linen as usual, then place it on a
board with a layer of muslin on the
board, pass damp cloth over the linen,
and rub with the polishing iron until
the desired degree of glossiness is OBJ
tanned. The iron should not be very
hot, or it will scorch if it is too cool,
the polish will be long coming. Gum
arabic dissolved and added in small
quantities to the starch improves it; a
lump of sugar is almost as good, and so
is sperm, or soap, or butter, or white
wax.-Science Of Health.

The TELEGRAPH BETWEEN GREAT
BRITAIN AND IRELAND. - Telegraphic
communication with Ireland is main
tanned by means of four submarine
cables, submerged between different
points in Great Britain and the Irish
coast. These cables contain in all
twenty-five separate wires.
One of the largest cables-that between
Holyhead and Dublin-has been laid
since the post Office acquired the con-
troll of the telegraphs, and all of them
have been under repair during the same
period. The rocky nature of the bot
tom along the Angle-sea coast has, it
appears, seriously affected the condi-
ton of the Holyhead and Dublin line,
the newest of all the Irish cables in
many places the outer iron wires which
form the chief protection of the core
have been completely chafed through
from constant friction. Quite q new
feature has also developed itself in con-
nectiou with this fault, namely, the
eating away, by kind of worm, of the
gutta percha covering of the core, in
much the same way as wood is bored
and eaten away by these destructive
insects, The post office can hardly be
congratulated on the possession of these
lines to Ireland, as they have been a
constant source of trouble and expense
ever since the transfer of the telegraphic
system to the government

PUMPKINS are excellent food for milch
COWS in the fall. They come too late in
the season to increase the quantity of
milk very much, but they will improve
it in richness, and the butter in flavor
and yield. They should not be fed to
lavishly, especially at first. Fifty
pounds of ripe pumpkins per day, in
two feeds, would be economically used.

ARREsTING DECAY In POTATOES
Various plans for arresting decay in
potatoes after digging have from time
to time been made public, such as dust
ing with quick-lime, gypsum, charcoal
dust, etc. Prof. Church, of Cirences-
ter, England, the eminent agricultural
chemist, announces that sulphate of
lime appears TO exercise very remark
able influence in arresting decay in po-
tatoes affected by the potato disease.
In one experiment the salt was busted
over some tubers, partially decayed
from this cause, as they were being
slowed away. Some months afterward
the potatoes were found to have suf-
fered no further injury. A similar
trial with powdered lime proved to be
much less effective.

FEEDING APPLES. Sour apples are
said to be as good for hogs or cows as
sweet ones. 1t is not the sugar merely
that they contain, but the starch, mu-
cilage, and other matters-to say moth
ing of their hygienic effects, which
make them useful food for animals.
They will not alone fatten but they will
assist in this process, and if fed with
caution may be profitable. When ripe
they may, as a matter of course, be
safely given in larger quantities than
when immature. If they are inconve-
niently plentiful with You Just now they
may be buried beneath foot of earth
and kept until Spring in good condi-
ton.

THE white of an egg has proved the
most efficacious remedy for burns.
Seven or eight successive applications
of this substance soothe the pain and
effectually exclude the burn from the
air. This simple remedy seems prefer
able to collodion or even cotton. Ex-
traordinary stories are told of the heal
ing properties of new oil which is
made from the yolk of hens eggs. The
eggs are first boiled hard, the yolks are
then removed, crushed and placed over
a fire. where they are carefully stirred
until the whole substance is Just on the
point of catching fire, when the oil
separates and msy be poured off. 1t is
in general use among the colonists of
Southern Russia as means of curing
cuts, bruises and scratches.

THE LOUISE A SUBSTITUTE FOR THE
CoMPAss.-The Great Dismal Swamp is
partly In North Carolina and partly in
Virginia. 1t is 40 miles long and Is to
20 miles wide. Professor Webster, at
the late meeting of the American Asso-
citation, told the story of a party that
divided in the swamp, one portion of
the body having no compass. The
latter portion of the party was lost, and
after long wandering found their way
out by a singular e1pediment. They
made use of the insect for which fine
tooth combs were invented. Putting
the insect on a fiat piece of wood, and
leaving it to its own devices, it invari-
ably began to move in certain direc-
ton. This direction was followed out
by the party, and they were thus led
out to the northward. 1t is supposed
that this instructive movement OF the
insect is due to its seeking the way
toward the greatest light.

paper. The herbs are put into the pa
per and are pressed down by the lever
until sufficient quantity is packed.
The end of the package is then folded

mold. A very little ingenuity only is
needed to construct the machine, or it
may be purchased ready-made.

A CHEAP CHICKEN CooP,-Having
made good discovery, am desirous
of giving it to the people, and know of
no better method than by giving it to
you. Being engaged in raising chick
ems for profit, it was necessary to make
cheap coops TO keep them in for few
weeks. / take an old barrel and tack
every hoop on each side of seam be-
tween the slaves with an inch-wrought
nail after clinching the nails, 1 saw
the hoops off on the seam. Then 1
spread the barrel open, by cutting a
board about 20 inches long for the
back of the coop, and two small pieces
to tack laths on for the front part. /
have the upper sections of the back
fastened with leather hinges, so that L
can open it at pleasure. Everybody
has old barrels which are almost value
less, and the trouble and expense of
making coop of this description is so
small IT is not worth mentioning, while
to buy the material and make a coop
of the same size, it would cost about
81.
