Gross Outrage.

A Herald special from Newark, Ohio,
this morning, says: The Chronicle to-
day publishes an account Of the debsuch-
ery of no less than twelve girls, from nine
to twelve years o! age, by G. b. kuentz,
teacher OF the German Roman Catholic
Church. 1t is stated that Kuentz was
detected 10 similar crimes twelve years
ago, when teaching the school OF the
West End Roman Catholic Church, but
the matter was hushed up. The indlgna-
ton is SO great that if Kuentz should tall
into the hands Of the German citizens h's
lie would pay the forfeit. kuents has
left for parts unknown.

Plain Talk to Girls.

Your every day toilet is a part of
your character. A girl who looks
like fury or a sloven in the
morning is not to DO trusted, howev-
CT finely she looks in the evening.
No matter how humble your room
may be, there are eight things it
should contain, viz: a mirror, wash
stand, soap, towel, comb, and hair and
nail and tooth brushes. They are
just as essential as your breakfast,
before which, you should make good
use of them. Parents who fail to
furnish their children with such apo
pliances not only make mistake,
but commit sin of omission. Look
tidy in the morning, and after the
dinner work is over improve your
toilet. Make it rule Of yonr daily
life to dress up for the afternoon
Your dress may not, need not, be
anything better than calico, bnt with
ribbon or a flower, or some bit of
ornament, you can have an air of self
respect and satisfaction that always
comes with being we'll dressed. A
girl with fine sensibiities cannot help
feeling embarrassed and awkward in
a ragged and dirty dress, with her
hair unkept, should neighbor come
in. Moreover, your self respect
should demand the decent apparel
ling of your body. You should make
it a point to look as we'll as you can
even if you are sure that no one will
see you bat yourself

What Men Need Wives For.

1t is not to sweep the house, and
make the bed, and darn the socks
and cook the meals, chiefly that a
man wants wife. If this is all he
needs, hired help can do it chea per
than wife. If this is all, when q
young man calls to see lady, send
him into the pantry to taste the bread
and cakes she has made; send him to
inspect the needle work and bed
making; or put broom in her hand
and send him to witness its use. Such
things are important, and the wise
young man will look after them.
But what the man wants with a
wife is her companionship, sympathy,
courage and love. The way of life
has many dreary places in it, and
man needs a companion to go with
him. A man is sometimes overtaken
by misfortunes; he meets with fail
ures and defeat; trials and tempta-
ton beset him, and he needs one to
stand by and sympathise He has
some stern battles to fight, with pow
erty, with enemies and Will sin; and
he needs woman that, when lie puts
his arms around her, he feels that he
has SON thing to fight for, will help
him to fight; that will put her lips to
his ear and whisper words OF coun.
Gil, and her hand to his heart and
iupart inspiration. All through, life,
through storm and through sunshine,
conflict and victory, through adverse
and through fAvoring winds, man
needs a woman's love. The heart
yeaIns for it, A sisters or mothers
love will hardly supply the need.
Yet many seek for nothing further
than succ IS in house work. Justly
enough, half of these get nothing
more; the other half, surprised bey-
ond measure, have gotten more than
they sought. Their wives surprise
them By bringing out nobler idea
in marriage, disclosing treasury of
courage, sympathy and love.

About Cashmere Shawls.

A letter from India gives an inter.
esting account of tho cashmere shawl
trade as it 10 carried on in the ProA
vince of Cashmere, in tile north of
India. 10 make the real cashmere
shaw s the work of time and pa-
tiencc. They are manufactured by
the dozen; that is to say, one shawl
IS never made s,ngly, but always n
dozen are made at one time and af.
ter one pattern, on account of the
number OF persons employed in the
manufacture-ench person having q
distinct portion of the shawl to make,
and who is always kept st work OH
the same part, although the pattern
OF lis work may be changed from
time to time. BY this means eaclr
operator becomes skilled in the pnr=
ticular form or shape of his piece of
work it may require thirty men for q
year; or many months, according TO-
the tineness of the texture, to produce
the dozen shawls. The work is per-
formed upon small hand looms, held
upon their laps, from patterns traced
upon cloth, and So described in form
and color that the eye readily follows
the pattern. When the pieces are
finished, OF which shawl comprises
many, they are put into the hands Of
tailors, who ii them neatly together.
and with some hand embroidery, that
is generally employed upon the bor-
ders to cover seams or finish designs,
the shawl is ut last finished, and after
the washing and pressing is ready
ioi' ;hio market. Ihs work is done
by men, boys growing mp to succeed
their fathers in the same kind of work
The wages given for this work run
from six to twelve cents per day. 1t
is said that some OF the most cUstly
shawls never find their way into the
market, but are kept by tho rajahs
for their own use. There is a good
deal Of trickcry in The shawl II ade,
the dealers here and at calcutta at
first demand at least two ard some+
times three p,iccs for their g ods.-
Bnt careful pl!chisor may buy for
about one half the prices that obtain
in the United States, aud at least one
third less than those of London.

Necromanoy.

Hooo h"u ai' hour ol quleC amuSe-
ment in camp, watching the tricks of
some Indian jugglers and snake
charmers, which have been described
hundred times over, and which
never lose their interest for the spec
tator. After breakfast ragged train
OF fellows leading apes and carrying
bags were seen coming up the main
street OF tho camp to one of the tents.
These were followed by seven or
eight ugly, shadeless elderly women
in bright drapery, carrying what are
considered here musical instruments.
They all squatted under the shade of
the trees in front of the tents apart
conjurors, ape'leaders, singing wo-
men.
The jugglers and snake charmers
werc the first to show off They were
only two old chatty fellows, whose
skin hung on their homes as ifit were
cracked brown paper. They did
some clever passes,' swallowed and
spit out fire, produced an enchanted,
inexhaustiblo water vessel, walked on
wooden patents held on by the action
OF the feet making vacuum-in
fact the withered, vivacious old Jug
gler and his ragged old confederate
performed all the orthodox tricks Of
their confraternity. Where did he
get the cobras which he produced
suddenly out of TWO baskets which
bad been turned over inside our, in
our presence? 1t was not the drum
ming of his friends or the playing on
the dry gould which drew the rep
tiles out of cover.
Meanwhile mango under the
dirty cloth was growing, and in an
interval Of snake work the old fellow
dashed at the latter, and exposed
fresh, bright green mangn tee some
eighteen inches high in the ground,
where he had apparently only put in
ii mango seed. Expressions of won
der followed; then the cloth was
thrown over the tree, and another of
the famous legendary lcgcrdcmain
fcats was executed. A shallow bas,
ket about eighteen inches high and
three feet long, with q cover, was
placed before the Prince. 1t was
plain there was no decoit. At call
there came ont from the group Of
natives near at hand @ lad Of twelve,
or 80, slight of figure and pleasant Of
face, with not an article of dress save
his lion cloth and dirty turban.-
Him the old man, chattering the
while, bound hand and foot, Ia
Brothers Adyone in twine. Then
sack made Of strong netting was pro
duced and the old fellow slipped i,
over the lad, whom he squeezed
down on his haanches SO that he
could tie the cords securely over his
head and lift him from the ground to
prove how securely he was. He
seemed to use great force to put the
lad into the basket and to have much
difficulty in fitting The lid Oh the top
Of him. When that was done tire
music was renewed by one, and the
other juggler began to talk to his
basket. Presently the lid was agi
tated, and the cord and net were
jerked out and fell on the ground
Then the juggler ran at the basket in
a fury, jumped on the top, crushed
in the lid, stamped on it, took stick
and drove it with force through the
wicker work. The basket was empty
Then there came a voice as OF lad
who had been inside, and 10! There
was just such youth on one of the
trees. The mango tree, when next
uncovered, appeared hung with tiny
fruit.

chamberlain was nominated for
Governor, receiving tho support in
the convention of Whippor and others
whom he now dcnouncos. SO un-
popular was Chamberlain that the
Receiver of tho State had to bo brought
into requisition, and over $4,000 OF
that institution were misapplied in
getting him elected. This is o fact
we'll known to every South CAROLINE,
an acquainted with tho politics of
that State. Possessing no personal
magnetism, and with questionable
record, it took hard work to elect him.
No sooner had he taken tho oath of
Office as Governor than he event

had elevated him. The height of his
ambition had been realized, and find
ing no other folds to conquer on tho
