Tie ROthschiId Women.

ed We take pleasure in referring to the
merits Of the ladies OF the Rothschild
family, not because they are wealthy,
but for the simple reason that, in spite
of their wealth, they strive to be useful
to their kind. The men are immersed
in business; they are charitable, but
people will say that it is easy to be
charitable if you are rich. The women
are public-spirited, Intelligent and
warmhearted, founding hospitals, re-
formatories, children's homes, endow-
ing scholastic institutions, encouraging
struggling professionals, and taking
a personal interest in the doings
of the poor. Baroness Lionel makes
weekly visits in the meanest portion of
London, Frightening the home of the
jewish artisan, giving her good counsel
to the earnest teachers in the free
schools, the matrons and assistants in
the various charities. The daughter of
Alphonse, of Paris, teaches good les
son to her sisters in faith, and to- rich
young ladies of every creed, by receiv-
ing a well-deserved diploma as teacher.
Anselm's daughter, in Vienna, is prom
lnent in music, not only composing
songs that attain popularity, but aiding
struggling musicians by pen and purse.

every cause to believe that there is
enough to last the whole United States
for centuries. Another point is that its
v,,:He for fire brick is not to be ascer-
tanned by experiment, for it has been
used for making fire brick for several
years by at least one firm, to our certain
knowledge. Its value for crockery
ware was proved by John Rablin. of
Grand Rapids, who sent specimen of
it to England and had set OF dishes
made of it, where it was pronounced
equal to the best European fire clay.
This clay exists also to some extent
among the iron mines of Lake Superior.
We have frequently seen it, sometimes
in quite large masses, in the hematite
beds around Negaunee and Ishpeming,
a snow-white clay of greasy feeling,
popularity known among the mines as
smagnesia" It is produced by the
decomposition Of feldspar. Probably,
however, it does not exist there in stuff
cient quantities to be of any practical

A Russian Grnsus.

The Continental Herald gave an &C
count the other day Of the opening of
a russian chapel erected in the Canton
OF Iessin by a Baron whom the local
papers call ga Russian Crmsus" It
seems that this gentleman has become
SO entranced by the scenery of Lugano
that he has resolved on building a mag
nltlcent chateau in the neighberhood.
The building will cost IS, 900, 900 francs,
the decorations 100000 francs, and the
furniture about as much more; but this
will be but q bagatelle to the owner if, as
the Tessinois journals say, he has an
annual income Of 15,OOO,00 francs.
They set down his encourage at 80 Rus
sian servants, 13 Russian and Swedish
singers, and 60 musicians, who cost him
alone 100000 francs year. In order to
crafty further his musical tastes, a Gel
ebrated prima donna is engaged occa-
slonally for his exclusive enjoyment,
and by way of keeping his orchestra in
practice the members of it are obliged
to play at certain hour each day
throughout the year, although in the alb
sence Of NJ. lie Baron there is not sin
gle auditor. The Baron is said to have
"sumptuous palaces" in Paris, Vienna
and Nice; to have made his money by
speculations in Russian railways; to
change every year all his personnel and
even his acquaintance, and to ignore
cOmpletele1y his relatives.

The Srnuggler's Tricks.

"A New Yorker was known by the GUS
tom-hou authorities to be. in the
habit of smuggling diamonds into this
country. He made no secret of It. The
revenue agents of the government in
Liverpool warned the custom house
authorities every time he sailed with a
lot Of jewels, the searchers failed to re-
cover single stone. At one time af-
ter searching his person most effectu-
ally, and hearing him boast that he
was about to return to England by the
same steamer, they discovered that a
valuable assortment OF. jewels had been
left in his state-room and were removed
by his wife and daughter an hour be-
fore the steamer left port. Another
time the artful smuggler sewed string
of glass diamonds on his vest. The
searcher found them, supposed them to
be genuine, and confiscated them.
Their true value was established next
day. Meanwhile the man had the true
stones under a plaster on his back.

GiraHeS.

Recent note has been made of the
arrival at the Garden of Acclimation,
in Paris, of six giraffes, the Oldest OF
which is three years Of age. The
giraffe is native of Africa, and used
to inhabit the country from Nubia to
the Cape of Good Hope, but it is said
now to be restricted to small canton
Of Abyssinia. All attempts at domes-
ticating the animal have failed in
Africa, yet it is easily tanned in Europe.
In it's native haunts it roams IN herds
of from five to fifty, browsing on the
leaves and small branches OF trees. 1t
is inoffensive, and seeks TO escape
danger by flight; yet, if hard presseo,
viii fight stoutly, discharging storm
of kicks with it's hind legs that will
even beat off the lion. It's running
pace is swifter than that of fleet
horse, and it moves over uneven ground
with great advantage. The flesh of the
giraffe is called palatable, and its mar
row is a favorite African delicacy.

A HnOttY Subject.

The next assizes in the city of York,
England, will give the lawyers an op-
portunity to show their ingenuity in
defining exactly what real estate is.
The cause is one which involves two
pieces Of real estate under the same at
mospheric column, or covering the
same space. It happened in this way:
Lord Faversham owned a mountain
adjoining the property Of Lord de
L'Isle. By perpetual excavation, the
mountain was honeycomed into stabil-
ity, and one bright morning rolled
away from Lord Faversham's grounds,
deposi5ing itself on those of his neigh
Dor. To whom does this mountain be-
long? If to Lord Favorsham, he ought
to be made take it home again. But
supposing that he cannot? The base
earth unquestionably is his. whether it
is tresspasser or not. IF this is true,
then Lord L'Isle loses about a square
mile of his property upon which this
truant mountain is dumped. It will
take the whole Philadelphia bar to set
tie this question but the sooner it is
settled the better. The roads are
blocked'up and the villagers are in a
desperate state of mind about it. Ii
Lord de L'Isle had the necessary ''faith
as a grain of mustard seed he could,
Of course, order it to be removed into
the sea, but he. evidently has not.
There the great unwieldly thing is, and
there it promises to stay, for all the
Queens counselors and all the King
men cannot put that mountain on It's
base again. J8 -5.g

4 Queer Hen Story.
From the DoylGstown (Pa.) Democrat.


From West Chester there comes to us
the following sad story of a well-mean-
ing hen: A man by the name of Fithian,
Of that place, had been the owner Of ahen
that, to all appearance. was just like
others of her tribe, except that she had
ceased to perform the functions of we'll
behaved madam chicken-she didn't lay
any eggs. This was all the more pecu-
liar when it was observed that she did
not show disposition to "cluck." The
hen seemed to thrive and ate well but it
was evident she had something on her
mind. She seemed weighed down with
grief of some undischarged duty. A
few days ago Mr.. Lot Fithian killed
the chicken, and on dissecting her,
discovered twenty-eight full-sized,
well shaped eggs, the only difference
between them and marketable eggs, be-
ing that they were minus the hard she'll
The cause OF the poor hens desponden-
cy was Row explained She had done
her duty, prepared her eggs for deliv-
cry, but owing to some obstruction,
nature refused to perform her share of
the work. What would have been the
ultimate consequence of this had the
hen been allowed to live on, we are not
prepared to say but it certainly is a
strange freak Oh. nature, the similitude
OF which we have never before heard Of.

Cures for Dyspepsia.

Dyspepsia arises from great variety
of causes, and different persons are re-
lieyed by different remedies, according
to the nature of the disease and condi-
ton OF the stomach. We know of a
lady who has derived great benefit from
drinking tumbler of sweet Inilk-the
richer and fresher the better-whenever
burning sensation is experienced In
the stomach. An elderly gentleman of
our acquaintance, who was afflicted for
many years with great distress after
eating, has effected cure by mixing a
tablespoonful of wheat bran in half a
tumbler OF water, and drinking it half
an hour after his meals tits neeessa-
ny to stir quickly and drink Immediate
~, or the bran will adhere to the glass
and become pasty. Coffee and tobacco
are probably the worst substances dys-
peptics can use.

THE deepest coal shaft in the country
was formerly that OF the Hickory mine,
at louisville, Pa, which is sunk to the
depth of 666 feet at a cost of 500, 600,
and consumed 42S working days in it's
construction. This, however, is but
little more than half the contemplated
depth of two shafts to be excavated
near Pottsville by the Philadelphia and
Reading Coal and Iron Company, which
are to be pushed vertical distance OF
1,50O feet = 900 feet in one shaft and
75O feet in the other having already
been accomplished. At each shaft
twenty five diamond drills are used,
boring holes to the depth of between
200 and 800 feet, which are charged and
blasted simultaneously. It is estimated
that the completion of the work will
develop mining area from which at
least 100000 tons of coal can be pro
cured.

Lucy Ell. Hooper, in one of her
readable letters to the Philadelphia Press,
says: The first American stramway.
as they call the horse railroads over here,
has just gone into operation. It runs
from the Place de PEtoile to Suresnes,
and the cars have been crowded ever
since it was opened. There are great
complaints, however, about the high
prices, for French people are used to
going around on tie tops of omnibuses
for the small sum of three sous, and
they do not relish having to pay
six, whether they viii Or no, the cars
having no seats on top. This, [ think, is
mistake In their construction for, oW-
ing to the comparatively mild climate,
never in the extreme of heat OF cold,
these outside seats are never untenanta-
bic, as they would be with us for fully
one-half Of the year. It is a great pity
that Paris. has not at least one city rail
road. The broad boulevard Haussman,
for instance, would furnish an excellent
thoroughfare for one, and the omnibus
service is SO Inadequate to the needs of
the populace, that such a road would be
immensely useful and popular But,not
only are the proprietors of the omnibus
lines opposed to such an innovation,
out all passenger. railways in Paris have
to encounter more serious opposition,
namely, that of real estate in the city,
for it is Of course to their interest to
keep up the present high rate of rents,
and they fear that if the, suburbs are
brought within easy reach of the bust
ness quarters in Paris, rents there will
rise, and those of dwellings, in the heart
of the city will proportionately fail.

The Fatted Calf.

Said Jack to Tom one summer day,
''You're getting in baddish way.
Your breath is short, your breast is fiat;
You used to weigh dozen stone,
And now you're only skin ard bone.
Why, you're as lean as / am fat.
Come out with me, my farm is near;
know you'll like our country cheer:
My fruit is ripe my eggs are new;
I've claret, too, your favorite brand;
Come out now, come; say Yes, 'off-hand;
I'll kill the fatted calf for you"
"That last remark of yours, dear Jack,
Il don't see why, thong H." Tom replied
The fatted calf-to take it's life
Think of your children and your wife,
And you committing suicide!"
