step, and others of their fellows kept watch and ward over the stable and grounds. Near l iy three weeks of painful excitement had made but slight change in Baycott's family. i His wife and daughter live under circum- ] stances which would drive many mad, and 1 this cumulative land agent and. farmer himself maintains a belligerent attitude. The gray head and slight figure is bowed, but by no means in submission on the contrary, never was Baycott's attitude more defiant It Is ohly by skillfu1 subterfuge that he can get q shirt washed for his outer, or a loaf of bread routes which existed a fortnight ago are closed, in fact, every earth hole is stopped, and the hunted man is driven to the open field. Not soul will sell him a sixpence worth of anything. He cannot even get a glass for his watch, for the maker, no more than anybody else, dares to serve him. Last evening the following letter was handed him by the tenants of Lord Erne:
 KILLMoRE, Nov. IL To c. c. Baycot, Esq.,:
 SR-In accordance with the decision made in Lord Ernes last letter tous. want you to appoint day to receive rents from the tenants reply expected
 Mir. Baycott's reply was that he would be ready to receive their rents at 10 o'clock this morning, an hour after which time he re- ceived the following notice
 The tenants request answer to the following be- fore paying the rent: First, don't you wish may get it? Second, when do you expect the Orangemen aIlu HOW are lley to come! In1rQ, when are you going to hoof it? Let know that may see you of. Fourth, you any way comfortable Don't be uneasy in your mind We will take care of your self. Down with the landlords and agents. God Ireland.
 Such communications as these are agreed ble and amusing enough when addressed to distant friends, but hardly so diverting when directed to ones self. It is also disquieting to hear the people say as one passes 'fHe will not hear the birds sing in the spring. Next to open and secret enemies, indiscreet friends are perhaps the most disagreeable of created beings. Unfortunately MT. Baycott, who wanted a score at most of northern men to get in his crops, has been threatened with an invasion from Ulster. The opposition of the government to such ''Ulsterior'' meas ures, as the Galway men called them to-day, has at least had the effect of moderating the peasants rancor of the relief expedition Only fifty with baggage and implements are announced as on the march, but even this number is hideous inf1iction on MT. Bay colt. He has nowhere to lodge them but in 8 barn, and has assuredly not the wherewithal to feed them, so their help and sympathy are somewhat overwhelming. The Liberals of this part of the country denounce the whole relief movement as Tory trick to force the hand of the present government to provoke a return to coercion by promoting civil war This consummation will probably be averted by the presence of sufficient number of troops.

Truth in a Nutshell.

There are to be found, doubtless, in the
ranks Of so-called "old maids" certain
tart-tempered, neutrality-suspicious.
of the sex; but they do not fix the status
or characteristics of this class, and as re-
CARDS types, it has none, for unmarried
women are as different in their aims and
dispositions as married women, and fire.
quently more independent. There may
be more starved womanly natures among
old maids than among wives and mothers,
but if so it is moral Tanner fast. They
can live for themselves alone if they will,
and comparatively small number who
do, bring the reproach of their selfshness
upon that much larger class who do not.
Where ever there are cultured women
we need not look in vain for instances of
the most heroic self-sacrifice, the most
touching devotion. 1t is natural for
women to be ministering spirits of good
to others, and they will find missions in
the great majority of cases, whether they
are married or single. Do the men who
sheer at old maids ever try to strike the
balance between the blessing they have
been to humanity and the annoyance
they may have caused itP If they will
take that trouble honestly and fairly
they will close their mouths forever on
that subject in very shame. But the old
maid taunt is now anachronistic. Since
the professions and new avenues of bus
mess began to be so freely opened to
women, the world is beginning to see
that they can do as well without hus-
bands as men without wives, and the
former lords of creation are having so
much to do in bearing themselves credit
ably in this new competition that the
disparaging cry of "old maid" is now
about as seldom heard as the more fear
full one of "mad dog."-BoSton Post.

Detection of Base Coin.

Not long ago an account was printed
Of counterfeit coin which almost defed
detection. 1t satisfied the tests of color,
weight and size, and acted under acid and
file as an honest coin would. Finally, to
satisfy hypercritical expert, it was alb
solutely cut in halves, when it appeared
that the outside was genuine, but was
only the case for heart of base metal.
Yet no known method would have de-
tected the skillful fraud. At the recent
trial of pyx" in England, announce
ment was made of a most ingenious yet
simple application of electricity to easily,
instantly and infallibly detect even such
ingenious cheats as this. 1t will readily
be understood that two bits of metal ex-
actly alike will similarly affect two
equally strong currents of electricity.
If, now, two such currents be flowing
through two connected coils of wire,
each of which contains good coin, the
balance of the currents is not disturbed,
as the coins are duplicates of each other.
But if for either coin a suspected coin is
substituted, either the balance of the cur
rents will remain undisturbed and the
coin is good, or it will he destroyed, and
telephone will indicate the disturbance
and detect the counterfeit.

Chinese laundering.

There is nothing novel in the operation
of washing. 1t is done with hard SOAP
on dashboard in set tubs. They use
no machinery or chemicals. They are
not sparing of muscle, and seem as tire
less as machines, bowling and bending
over their work in the steamy atmos-
phere all day and far into the night, stop
ping now and then for "a sip of tea. When
the clothes are washed, dried and starch
ed, they are taken to the front shop to
be ironed. Here two OF three men are
employed at rude counter which has
an ironing surface of several thicknesses
of cotton cloth. They use an ordinary
sad-iron, which is heated at a glowing
stove in the back room. They test the
heat of the irons, not with wet finger,
us our custom is, but by holding it near
to the eye. Sometimes the eye becomes
bloodshot by such abuse. A peculiar
feature of the work is the dampening OF
the garments by ejecting fine spray from
the mouth. This is an art learned only
by long practice. The mouth is filled
with clean water from bowl, and the
water forced out again in invisible va
por. No atomizer can make finer
spray. The polish of bosom or collar is
produced by the edge of the iron, the
whole strength of both arms being APP
piled in the operation. The finishing
touch is given to collars and cuffs by q
def motion of the iron which gives the
proper curve to fit the neck OF wrist.
When finished, the articles are assembled
according to the check number, wrapped
in paper, and the parcel marked ready
for delivery. Ironing requires more skill
than washing, and is more laborious.
The ironers, being exposed to greater ex-
tremcs of heat and cold, are subject to
influenza and rheumatism. Two ironers
have died here of quick consumption
A Chinaman will tell you that ''iron man
die, wash man nebber die"

A Model Barn.

The barn of Col. Thomas A. Scott, near
Darby, da., was completed in March
last and cost nearly SIC, 600, and in archi-
tectural style cannot be exeelled. The
carriage room is at the eastern portion of
the building and has a capacity for nine
coaches. There are about eight vehicles
in it, which cost from $500 to $500
apiece. The coach house has six large
windows with shutters, and the ceiling
has fancy tissue paper, "fly catchers," "
nicely arranged and cut in n tasty and
beautiful manner. The harness room
has twelve separate cases with glass
fronts, and not a particle of dust can get
to any of the harness. There is tee
phonic communication from the harness
room to the mansion-house, from whence
the coachman's orders are received. A
peculiar beam with projecting crosses is
used as a harness holder, in cleaning and
blackening. The stable has accommo-
dations for twelve head of horses. At
present it has ten horses, two donkeys
and one pony. The ten upright posts,
near the horses and forming part of the
stalls, are carefully covered with straw
plaits for about four feet up from the
ground. The flooring of the entire first
story of the barn is of granite, but i'm
mediately under the horses are wooden
false floors laid upon the stone. These
come out, and are cleaned twice week
Just at the edge of the false floor is a
perforated iron strip about a foot wide
and level with the stone floor, which al
lows all the liquid to pass through. Just
back of this is straw plat about yard
wide and which is covered with loose
straw forming bedding. Just back of
this plait pretty cocoanut carpet is laid,
and is kept as clean as though it was in
parlor. 1t is put down at s A. NJ. and
taken up at P. NJ. An iron watering
trough is placed against the wall still
further back. The ely catcher" paper
is neatly arranged overhead in all the
stable. In front of the horses is a space
five feet wide, and from here the
horses are fed. Spoutings come down
from the various bins in the second story.
These are fitted with a patent gauge
attachment which measures just four
quarts of feed. There is one large stall
set apart for sick horse. In the upper
story | found a bathroom and water.
