A LOCOMOTIVE on the Pennsylvania
Railroad is reported to have made the
fastest run on record q few evenings ago.
It was ordered from the round-hous
to the scene Of an accident, and ran 60
miles in As minutes and eight seconds.
The engineer, speaking of the run to a
Division Superintendent, said, ST was a
little skeered once, when I thought I
see freight comm down agin me, but
it was only q skeer. I tell you it was q
mighty purity run, but sometimes her
wheels didn't seem to tech the rails for
q whole mihute.''

clothes, securing It at the foot; then
draw it up, unrolling it before removing
the others. Another way is to take off
the Counterpart and spread the sheet
with one blanket over it on top of the
other clothes, drawing them from un-
derneath it when it is in place.
The night dress should be changed at
least twice week. Slip the arms out
of the soiled one, put the clean one on
over the head and when the arms are in
pull it down, removing the other at the
same time over the feet. A flannel
jacket is very useful, and indeed indis-
pensable when the sufferer is restless
and disposed to throw off the cover
ings.
To wash the person cloth is better
than sponge. The best soap is the
white unscented kind. CASTLE soap is
positively injurious to some skins from
the strong soda contained in it. Car
bolic and tar soap produce no good eff
feet, if not actually harmful. The
washing, of course, must be done be-
fore changing the clothing. Pass the
hand under the clothes and do not wet
too large q surface at once. Dry as
quickly Is may be with soft towel. It
is wise to ask the doctor whether cold
or tepid water should be used. The
former is the more refreshing, but is
not always permissible. The mouth
should be rinsed out and the teeth rub
bed with a piece of linen rag wound
around small stick and dipped in cold
water. The face and hands should be
sponged several times during the
day. If a hip bath is ordered,
the invalid must be seated in it and
covered with blanket enveloping the
tub as well. The water should be as
hot as can be borne, and care must be
taken to keep it at the same temperature
by adding fresh as soon as it begins to
cool. On coming out the body should
be rubbed with hot towels. Should the
doctor order foot bath to be given in
bed, folded blanket or piece of rubber
sheeting should be placed in the bed for
the tub to stand on. The bed clothes
must be partly folded back from the
foot, the tub introduced, the knees
drawn up, the feet placed in the water
and the clothes pulled down again.

The Value of Four Pins.

A curious story is going the rounds of
the English newspapers of an exhibition
in the show windows of one of the lead
ing jewelers. of Vienna. The object of
attraction is a brooch magnificently
studded with gems, in the middle of
whose chasing is inclosed the most sim
gular of centers-four common, old,
bent and corroded pins. This brooch is
the property of the Countess Lavet-
skofy. The pins have a history, of
course. Seven years ago Count Robert
Lavetskofy, as the story runs, was ar
rested at Warsaw for an alleged insult
to the Russian Government. The real
author of the insult, which consisted of
some careless words spoken at social
gathering, was his wife. He accepted
the accusation, however, and was sent
to prison.
In one of the ightless dungeons in
which the Car is said to be fond OF
combining his Polish subjects, the unfor-
tunate martyr for his wife's loose tongue
spent six years. He had only one
amusement. After he had been searched
and thrown into cell, he had found in
his coat four pins. These he pulled out
and threw on the floor; then in the
darkness he hunted for them. Having
found them, perhaps after hours and
even days, he scattered them again.
And so the game went on for six weary
years. "But for them," he writes in
his memoirs, 81 would have gone mad.
They provided me with q purpose. So
long as I had them to search for, had
something to do. When the decree for
my liberation as an exile was brought to
me the jailer found me on my knees
hunting for one which had escaped me
for two days. They saved my wife's
husband from lunacy. My wife, there
fore, could not desire prouder orna-
ment."

Another Love Romance Ended.


The glens, and groves, and hills and
dales around Iowa Falls are all SO
suggestive of romance, and 80 many
sensations that involved hearts ease
have transpired in these grounds, that
people from surrounding towns are
making this trysting place for their
love meetings and making. A case in
point came to the notice of our pencil
pusher recently. A man named-never
mind residing in the classical ci.y of
Clear Lake, the spot of spots, where
tender feeling should bud and blossom,
inserted notice in an Eastern paper
for wife. He was lonely, had a big
heart, strong arms, and wanted daisy
of a girl to accept his charms of heart,
soul and body. A girl in far-off Penn
sylvania read the advertisement, and
she was lonely and wanted sympathy,
therefore she answered the notice. In
due time the letters passed each other
semi-weekly on the route from Iowa to
Pennsylvania. Finally it was arranged
that the mutually -smitten twain should
meet beneath the clear Iowa sky, and
it is not strange, but it is true,
that Iowa Falls was selected as the
place of meeting. On last Thurs
day the train from the East brought
young woman in our depot, who was
comely in appearance and young. Upon
alighting at the depot she carefully
looked around for somebody, went into
the depot, and waited for somebody,
but he did not come. After waiting
some time she went over to Mr.. Foot's
eating house and deposited her lug
gage. When the shades of evening
were falling thick and fast youth ap-
peared at the depot. He peered around
awhile, and then commenced to ask
questions. He wanted to know if
lady got off the train, and if so where
she was. He was directed to the eat
ing-house, and there they met for the
first time on earth. The fellow, either
from stratagem or force of habit, was
a veritable tramp in appearance. His
buttons were bare. His big toes pro-
truded from his boots. His face was
dirty, and he looked any thing but an
expectant bridegroom awaiting his lady
love. He was presented to our heroine
and she was struck with amazement.
There were the features as revealed in
the loved photograph she carried in her
bosom; but, mercy; what a frame the
picture surrounded. The love look on
his face made him even more hideous,
and the girl with despair at her heart
and yet relief coming along with it
and lifting the cloud gazed at the new
conner with no love in her eyes. Only
few words were spoken. She COM
plimented him on the size and dirtiness
of his great toes, on his buttons and dirt
and told him-Begone. Thus ended
another of these episodes, and they all
end in this way. The young lady has
found friends here, and the young man
has gone back to Clear Lake probably
to wash up.-Iosca Falls Sentinel.

Sharpening the Little Ones.

A man never gets an idea OF how fast
the world moves until he gets out of his
own sphere into some other. In order
to see how great progress has been
made in teaching he must get into
modern school-r6om where the teacher
has kept progress with the age of i'm
provements in the methods of impart-
ing instruction. In the Gold Hill schools
every faculty of the pupil is awakened
and sharpened. Even tables of weights
and measures in the primary classes
are taught as object lessons. They have
the scales and the weights and the
measures right there, and the scholars
see that it takes sixteen ounces to make
one pound, and four gills to make
pint, etc., up to the gallon. The result
is that little children from seven to nine
years old will foot up pounds and
ounces, and even fractions of ounces,
and give the correct total with facility
which is surprising. The same is true
of measures, including quarts, pints,
gills, etc. But this is not all. They
are taught to form correct estimates of
the weights of objects. They are handed
book, or something of the kind, and
then estimates of its weight are taken.
One of the scholars then weighs the
object and announces the result. The
Importance of this kind of practice in
estimating the properties of things will
become apparent one of these days
when success in life may depend on ac-
curacies of judgment. The above is
cited only as one of many ways of sharp
ening the perceptiye faculties of the
children. 1t teaches them to think, and
that's, after all, as good definition as
can be given Of real education. And
then, to teach the little ones geography,
they are set to world-building, on q
small scale. They are furnished with
suitable measure of loan in fitting re-
ceptacle furnished with implements and
construct ranges of mountains and hills
and valleys and plains and canyons and
ravines, and to form all the phases pre-
sented by the solid part of the earth.
Then they 60 to work and run mines.
Their shafts never get very deep nor
their tunnels long before cave occurs;
but the theory is exemplifed and thor
oughly understood.-God Hi1. Men,
NeUs.

SLOW WORK.

LITTLE DONE IN THE HOuSE.
= Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 2B.-The Democrats
are becoming nlarmed at the slow progress of
the work Of this session. 4 member Of the
Ways and Means Committee said to-day that
Congress could not adjourn before July 15 The
House has accomplished nothing since the ho1i-
day recess But few appropriation bills,-bIlls
which usually involve the..most time and largest
discussions been reported Some of tho
appropriation bills are not even prepared. The
River and Harbor bill is to be reported from tho
Committee on Commerce, and the Army, Legis-
lative, Executive and Judicial, Post Offices
and Post-Roads, General Deficiency and
Sundry Civil, Consular and DIPLOMATIC.
and Indian bills have been recommitted and
will not be reported until the House adopt new
rules, which huye:bcen the subject Of discussion
since Jan. g. According to an order of the
House, the subject of
4 REVISION
of the rules may be discussed day after day
during tho morning hour until it Is disposed Of
Monday is bill day, and Friday is devoted to
private business only, SO no business OF PUBIC
character according to the order OF things can be
completed except on Monday, and then only l1n,
der suspension of the rules This time Is devoted
wholly to receiving reports from committees,
which the House may send to the calendar. Ever
since Feb Il single hill has consumed whnt Is
really left of the morning hour entirely. The
calendars Of both tho House and Senate are
blocked, and as business now stands it would
seem impossible for Congress to get through this
summer.

SUGAR.
DISCUSSING THE DUTY.

DISCUSSING THE DUTY.
Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 28.-Tho Ways and
Means Committee had further discussion to-
day Of the Sugar bill. Mr.. Gibson made strong
speech against any reduction Of the duty on
sugnr, or, as he put It, 1.-The singing out Of this
one interest Of his State to take OF duties which
now protect the culture Of sugar." Mr. Nor
rison insisted that the present duty, which ay-
era9es 624a per cent, is altogether too high, and
that it should at least be restored to the 50 per
cent which was the duty before is WIS increased
to meet Secretary Rristows demand for more
revenue and increased taxation He called at
tcnton to the fact that this duty Is paid by very
poor people. Finally Mr.. Gibson offered reso-
luton to the effect that no bill should be con-
sidered by the Committee
REDUCING TILE DUTY on SUGAR
unless the bill should also contain general re-
vision or reduction Of all tariff duties. This is
to bring the Committee squately face to face
with the question whether the Committee will
cotntennuce any effort to revise the tariff in de-
tail. Dir. Wood offered a substitute to Mr.. Glib
sons resolution providing for reduction of the
duty on sugar to the average rate, 20 per cent,
and DIr. Mills offered III amendment reducing
the duty to As per cent. These motions we're nl
pending when the Committee adjourned, and
will probably be voted On at the meeting next
Tuesday.
