The engagement of Joe Emmet al

cessful ever played by him. At each
performance hundreds were turned
away while the exterior OF the theater
was crowded to excess an hour before
the curtain went up. Manager Albaugb

sight of him during the week except Oh
Thursday, when Emmet managed to

Mrs. Hayes and the Wine Trade.

Washington Letter.
Some days ago had talk with Il
gentleman who frequently visits this
city selling wines, liquors and cham
pagnes. He represents well known
New York house. and has visited this
city scmi-annually for twenty years.
Speaking of the trade and its decrease,
he said I'VE don't sell one case Of
wine in Washington now where we
sold thirty some years ago. Mrs. Hayes
no wine at State dinners may have
sounded easy to other people, but it
was almost sound of death to the
wine trade. Many is the time we have
sold hundreds of boxes odealerS who
we knew in turn furnished them to the
Executive Mansion. That trade is en-
tirely gone now Mrs. Hayes having
declared against wine, of course it be-
came questionable in manner, and
its consumption in Washington fell off
very much. Last winter there was not
one case of wine sold where forty were
sold even ten years ago. The drinking
of wine among men may not have fal
len off much, but it certainly has
among ladies. Wine is not necessary
now at fashionable parties. l mean of
course with the Office-holding and po-
litical classes, who mostly drink it about
Washington, though it is not always
kept off the table.

Canital Punishment in China.

Apropos of the sentence just pro-
nounced upon Chun Hou, formerly the
Ambassador of China Mt this court, Prof
Vassilieff furnishes the following explain
atoms According to the latest Pekin
newspapers, Chun Hou, though con-
demned to be hung, is not immediately
to be put to death, but kept in prison
for the present. Capital sentences are
promptly carried ont in the case of in
surgents and certain other classes of
criminals, where delay might endanger
the peace of the country. In such cases
even the local magistrate is empowered
to summarily take life if he deems it
necessary. But ordinarily the executions
throughout the empire take place stimuli
taneously at the autumnal equinox, at
which time the Emperor visits the Tenn
pie of Heaven to clear himself of the sin
of shedding blood. Hence, if an ordinary
criminal is sentenced the day after the
autumnal equinox, he has whole year
of life still before him. Moreover, for
a certain time before the equinox the
Minister of fortunes receives and eX-
amines the lists of the condemned from
all parts of the empire, and reports to
the Emperor the names of those least
deserving of clemency. The Emperor
then orders some to be executed forth
with, and respites others for another year.
The sealed lists of the doomed are car
ried to all parts of the empire 10y cour-
iers. On a fixed day all the sentenced
criminals are brought to a public place,
where the sealed lists are opened and
the Emperor's orders carried out on the
spot. Some are beheaded with sword,
or common knife some are strangled
by being dragged over the ground, for
the jibbet is not used in China. Be
heading is regarded more shameful than
strangling, for the latter leaves the body
whole, while the former dismembers it.

Pictures.

CASTLE soap and water can be used on
oil paintings without danger, care being
taken, of course, not to wet the back, or
let water through cracks.
For ordinary busting of pictures silk
handkerchief should be used.
Heavy. gilt frames are appropriate for
oil paintings.
An engraving would be made to appear
cold by bright or heavy gilt frame,
though sometimes plain, unburnished
one looks well. OF course a margin of
white paper is needed between the
printed surface and the frame, so as not
to make the contrast or brilliancy too
violent.

Forms Of SalutatiOn.

OF the many forms of salutation, the
custom of shaking hands is the most
common among civilized nations. 1t un-
doubtedly comes from remote barbarism,
when two men meeting gave each other
their weapon hands, as a security against
treachery or sudden attack. On the
European continent it is usual for men
who are intimate friends to kiss one an
other, but this custom prevails only
among ladies in this country and Great
Britain. In the greater portion of Ger
many it is an act of pOlitenesss to kiss
the hand of lady; bnt this privilege is
allowed in Italy only to near relatives,
while in Russia it is confined to kissing
the forehead In the East and among
the Sclavic nations the character of salu-
tations is quite different The custom of
throwing ones self upon the ground and
kissing the feet of the monarch prevails
among the Persians. In China an in
ferior upon horseback meeting n superior
dismounts and waits till the latter has
passed. In Japan the inferior removes
his sandals when meeting his superior,
crosses his hands by placing his right
hand in the left sleeve, and with slow
rocking motion of his body cries out,
"Augh Augh ~ do not hurt me- In
Siam the inferior throws himself upon
the ground before his superior, the latter
sends forward one of his slaves to see
whether the former has been eating any
thing, or carries with him any smell at
all offensive ii lie does he is Immediately
kicked ont without ceremony, but If not
the attendant raises him up. In Ceylon
the inferior on meeting a superior throws
himself upon the ground, repeating the
name and dignity of the latter, which APP
pears to take little notice of the PROSTATE
form as he passes it. Among some tribes
of the American Indian the custom is to
salute by rubbing noses together. This
custom is also common III the Friendly
and Society islands, where it is returned
by each taking the hand of the other and
rubbing 1t upon his own nose and mouth.
The Moors of Morocco ride at full speed
toward stranger, as if they intended to
run him down, and, on arriving near,
suddenly stop and fire pistol over his
head. In the Pelew Islands the inhabit-
ants grasp either the hand or foot of the
one they wish to salute, and rub their
face against it. The Arabians shake
hands six or eight times, but, if persons
of distinction, they embrace and kiss
several times, also kissing their own
hand. Yemen persons of rank permit
their fingers to be kissed, after long
refusal In Turkey it is the custom to
place the hands upon the breast, and
bow to the person saluted. They are
perhaps the most affectionate in Burmah
fancy the following: A gentleman meets
lady or another gentleman and applies
his mouth and nose closely to their cheek
and draws in the breath strongly, as if
smelling delightful perfume with both
mouth and nose Hence, instead of say
ing "Give me kiss, Burmahan would
say, "Give me smell. "-Chicago Inter-

We know lady who was suffering
from diabetes, with an intolerable thirst,
night and day, that nothing would allevi-
ate. She had an interview, over year
since, with Mr.. G. G. Waite, of the
Windsor Hotel, who himself adopted
this regiment after consulting the best
physician in Europe, and she followed
his example. Her disease was at once
arrested, her thirst wholly relieved, and
she enjoys very comfortable health,
which fully pays for the self-denial at the
table.-NeU York COuricr-Journdt.

Ladies' About To Marry.

In marrying, make your own match !;
do not marry any man to get rid OF
him, or to oblige him, or to save him.
The man who would go to destruction
without you will quite as likely go
with you, and perhaps drag you along
Do not marry i'll haste, lest you repent
at leisure; do not marry for home
and living, when by taking care of
your health you can be strong enough
to earn your own living. Do not let
aunts, fathers or mothers sell You, for
money or position, into bondage, tears
and lifelong misery, which you alone
must endure. Do not place yourself
habitually in the society of any suitor
until Won have decided the question of
marriage human wills are weak, and
people often become bewildered and do
not know their error until it is too late.
Get away from their influence, settle
your head and make up your mind alone.
A promise may be made III moment of
sympathy, or even half-delirious ecstasy,
which must be redeemed through years
of sorrow, toll and pain.

What Women should Vse.

Vely few women are qualified. either
by nature or training, to play the part
of ludicious domestic Providence. I'M
restrained 10y any other influence and
the abdicaticn Of the husband is gener-
ally attended by humiliation and suffer
ing to the rest for without Il balance of
power we may expect abuses to steal in,
whether States or families are victimized
by an unfortunate adjustment of circum-
stances. For ii is men on whom the
sterner and more serious responsibilities
of existence fail. Men who bear the
burden and heat of the day, husbands
and brothers who give their lives for
their country, and die by thousands of
every lingering torture under foreign
sky; they must act under heavy mental
pressure ana distress, while women, who
are generally led by any other bias save
their Judgment on intellect, may in
dulge in hysterical views of everything
at their ease mt home. Marriage pro-
tects women, who, i'll return, are ex-
pected to embellish life, soften Its trials,
and, with womanly graces, smiles and
kindness, avert the threatening clouds
of adversely from bursting in unchecked
violence on the family circle. 1t is a
fine field of enthusiasm, action and en-
terprise in which women may enlist, and
the more highly toned their moral ethics
the better; they may form character,
direct aims, soothe despair, and, by their
delicate tact, instincts and perception,
assist in mitigating much cruel suffering
and disappointment. Women should
represent beauty of some kind or another.
