A correspondent at the Russian head
quarters explains the mystifcation con-
corning the reported capture of the Hainkoi
pass. He says; Goa the 10Th column
of Sulieman Pasha's forces attempted
strenuously to force the pass. 1t was sue
cessful, but though the column did indeed
force its way into TIE dtfile it was there 30
roughly handled by the Russian artillery
and by regiment holding the pass that it
was compelled to retire."

A Vienna correspondent remarks, rela-

SunStrOke.

The sudden accession of heat has al
ready produced one fatal, and more
than one severe, case OF sunstroke in
the metropolis. Probably the affection
so designated is not the malady to
which the term coup de SOleI can be
properly applied. The condition
brought about is an exaggerated forM
of the disturbance occasioned by enter
inc too suddenly the " hot room OF
Turkish bath. The skin does not i'm
lnediately perform its function as an
eyaporating and therefore cooling sur
face, and an acute febrile state of the
organism is established, with disturb
ed balance of circulation, and more or
less cerebral irritation rs prominent
feature of the complaint. Death may
suddenly occur at the outset of the com
plant, as it has happened in Turkish
bath, where the subject labOrs under
some predispositiOn to apopleXy, or has
a weak or diseased heart. 1t should
suffice to point out the danger and to
explain, by way of warning, that al,
though the degrees Of heat registered
by the thermometer, or the power OF the
suns rays, do not seem to suggest
especial caution, all sudden changes
from d low to high temperature are
attended with danger to weak organ
isms. The avoidance of undue exercise
for example, persistent trotting or
cantering up and down the Rows an
obvious precaution on days marked by
relatively, if not absolutely, high
temperature. We direct attention to
this matter because it is obvious the pc
culiar peril of overheating the body by
exertion on the first burst of fine
weather is not generally realized. 1t is
forgotten that the increased temperature
must be measured by the elevation
which has recently taken place, not the
number Of degrees of heat at present
recorded. The registered temperature
may he more or less than that which
occurred year ago; but its immediate
effects on the organism will be de-
termined by the conditions which have
preceded it and the violence of the
change.-LOndOn Lancet.

schooner revealed the fact that the
knife Of the would-be murderer who
stabbed him in the side while he was
asleep had passed through Williams
flesh, through thick quilt and heavy
mattress, and cut Il large cash in the
canvas hammock! That blow was
struck to kill!
Yesterday afternoon we called ut the
residence of Mr.. Seller to see Williams,
having first obtained permission Of his
physician. We found him lying in bed
resting quite easily and not at all ayerse
to telling us all about the affair. He is
rather a preposSesSing-loOking young
man. and talked quite pleasantly and
intclligently to us for about ten minutes,
the physician having limited the inter
view to that time. The wounded man
was quite comfortable last evening.
4 number of seasons ago Williams
was mate of sea-going vessel running
between Baltimore and European ports.
Antonio was one of tie crew. During
one of the trips there was mutiny,
which Williams helped to quell. Two
of Antonio'S relatives were killed in the
melee, and Antonio swore vengeance on
Williams, whom he supposed was re-
sponsible for their taking off. He fol-
lowed Williams from Baltimore, and
made an attempt to Kill him at Buffalo,
but failing in that made the second at
tpmnt rs narrated above.

A Railroad Paying its Employees in
Silver.

The Central Pacific Railroad Com
panv are now paying their train, yard,
and office men exclusively in silver
Men who had a few hundred dollars due
them were loaded with coin when the
pay car arrived here yesterday, and for
once seemed to have more money than
they could conveniently carry. While
the company, without the sanction of
Congress, have made silver coin ten
der for all amounts due their employees,
with that inconsistency for which power
full corporations are becoming notorious,
they refuse to receive such coin for fares
or freight for any amount over five dol
lars. If an employee Of the company,
who received his two months wages in
silver yesterday, had freight brought
here by rail to-day he would have to pay
all charges above five dollars in gold.
The agents, acting under instructions
from the company, would not receive
the silver paid him for his labor, even at
a discount. This is one of the arbitrary
and despotic DEGREES which make people
distinguish the Central Pacific Railroad
Company from other corporations by
the name of the "great grasping, soul
less monopoly. ."-Winnimucca SiIrer

HINTS FOR THE HOUSEHOLD,

To Prcrem Tin RuSiilg.-Rub fresh
lard over every part of the dish, and
then put it i'm an oven and heat 1t thor
oughly. Thus treated, any un-waree
may be used in water constantly, and
remain bright and free from rust indef-
lIiteiy.
German or French MuStard,-Equal
quantities of English or Italian mustard
seed are mixed with nutmegS, cloves,
mace, cayenne pepper salt, and vine
gar; mix and grind in mill until 1t is
as fine as flour; three grindingS are
necessary; use whole spices.
Cnrram .Shrub.-To a pint of strained
currant juice put Il pound OF sugar; boil
gently together for s or 10 minutes;
then seti where it will cool; when luke
warm, add Il winc-glasS of brandy to q
pint of syrup; bottle and cork tightly
and keep in cool place.
Lcnlow Juice StaigS.-Let the spotted
part of the cloth absorb Il little water
without dipping, and hold the part over
a lighted common birthstone match at a
proper distance. The Sulphurous gas
which is discharged soon causes the spots
to disappear.
annie SnoU.-Pare and core 6 good
sized apples or ounces, steam them in
2 tablespOonfulS of water, with a little
lemon peel if apples are used, 'and
orange peel for ounces add pound
of white sugar and the white of l fresh
egg; beat for of an hour without stop
ping; serve in custard glasses, heaped
up
CitrOn PreSerrC.-Peel and cut the
citron into inch squares; the part con-
tanning the seeds should be cut out;
then to every gallon of water, add alum
as large as a large walnut; in this boil
the citron slowly till a straw will easily
pierce it, then drain well and put into
the preserve sirup," allowing pound
of sugar to every pound of fruit. Also
add 1 sliced lemons GemOve the seedS)
to every 10 pounds of citron, and /
pound green ginger root, well cleaned.
Boil in the sirup till clear; then put
away in cloSely-coyered jars after it has
become cold.
To Cleanse Kid Gl0reS.-Lay the
gloves upon clean board; make mix
ture of dried fuller's earth and powder
ed alum, and pass them over on each
side with a common stiff brush; then
sweep it off and sprinkle them with dry
bran and whiting, and dust them well.
This, if they be not exceedingly greasy,
will render them quite clean; but if they
are much soiled take out the grease with
crumbs of toasted bread and powder of
burned bone; then pass them over with
a wooden cloth dipped in fuller's earth
or alum powder; in this manner they
can be cleaned without wetting, which
frequently shrinks and spoils them.

Bulgarian Women.

A recent English book Oh Turkey has
the following: ave passed through a
busy hive of reapers, who were cutting
the product of these chemical sub
stances, and who were nearly all Bull
garian women. We were going up a
hill at the time, and had left my in
fernal machine to enjoy the pleasure of
stretching my legs and counting my
bruises, when | saw several of the young
women Fastening toward me. Feeling
that it would be ungallant to turn my
back upon so fair a charge, stopped,
determined to see it out at all hazards.
On they came, with laughing lips and
sparkling eyes, as l stood wrapt in ex-
pectant wonder, for they were so many.
Soon / was surrounded. What might
be the customs of the country, or what
might be expected of me, l knew not,
and l felt that, could my friends at home
see me at this moment, my situation
would be ludicrOus in the extreme. But
now my hands were kissed, one foot was
raised and the sole of my foot was
rubbed with ears of corn, to signify that
it was the desire of these brown damsels
that I might forever walk on plenty.
This poetical consideration for my well
fare deserved some return, 50 | distri-
buted some small coins among them,
and was laughingly released"

An unhappy and credulous burglar
recently read in the society columns Of
a Sunday paper that q prominent resi-
dent of the South Division had gone to
the seaside with his family, to spend the
heated spell He therefore made his
way to the house, which he found dark
and deserted, gently but firmly broke
in window, and feloniously and bur-
glariously entered the premises, to be
surrounded and captured by the promi-
nent resident and his three stalwart
sons, who were sitting in the back
kitchen in darkness. They hadn't gone
out of town at all, but had only pre-
tended to 60, 50 as to impress people
with an undue sense of their social i'm
portance The unhappy burglar says
that deception may be the better part
of valor, but he will be what-you-may-
call-ited if he believes any thing more

An Intrepid Youth.

A farmer named johnson, living near
Clinton, Wis, the other Sunday morn
inc, when preparing to leave for church
with his family, noticed rough-looking
customer lying under some currant-
bushes. Mr.. johnson suspected from
the fellows caution that he was far more
dangerous than the ordinary tramp, and
gave instructions to his son Calvin, who
is 10 years old, to fasten the doors, pull
down the curtains. and watch for de-
velopments. After the family had gone
a short time, young Johnson heard a
noise in his bedroom, and, going inside
the room, waited at the foot Of his bed,
with revolver in hand, and, when the
thief was climbing into the room through
the window, told him to go away, or he
would blow out his brains, but the dar-
ing burglar ran to and grappled with
Calvin, grabbing hold of the weapon.
johnson pulled the trigger, and shot the
prowler through the left hand, the bull
let nearly coming out at the top OF his
wrist. When this was done, he cried
for mercy, and Calvin tied him to the
bedstead with ropes. He WAS taken to
town, and DR.. James extracted the bui-
let. The trial took place Monday morn
inc before Justice SlossoL, in crowd
ed courtroom, when it was learned that
the villains name was Lewis Hansen,
and that he was of Norwegian parent
age. The Judge sent him up for 80
