SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLARS,
The Profits of kearney's Three Years
. .-..a .. Agitation.

The statement of Kearney's counsel that
he was unable to pay the fine Of $1,000 was
not indorsed by Kearney himself at the
House Of Correction, nor is it in accord
with authentic reports concerning the
pecuniary profit that his business of "agi-
tation" has brought him in. Before the
late W. 8. O'Brien died, acting entirely
Independently OF the firm and being en-.
ragged at an attack made on him by Kear-
ney on the first flush Of the latter's promi-
nenoe, he is said to have dash ID off check
OF $4,000 for Kearney, saying, ats
cheaper to buy the - than bother
with him ~ Kearney received $i5, 1000
ouring the gubernatorial campaign for
keeping White in the field. He received
from $500 to $50, during the New
Constitution campaign for his apathy dur
ing the last six weeks before election. In
TACT, as nearly as can be estimated. his
pecuniary profits are In the vicinity of 500.
ooo At the House of Correction, when
asked If he were able to pay his $1,000 fine,
lie answered evasively. AS no imprison-
ment excepting the six months which
formed part Of his senteSce, ara which
began with his incarceration yesterday,
can be enforced until the fiue Is paid, and
as the collection Of the amount must be by
civil process, the exact status of Kearuey
as capitalist becomes an interesting
question. The certainty is, however, that
his profitable career during the past three
years will very we'll permit him six months
rest and retirement. As soon as the
weather permits resumption of work on
the road and at the quarry, Kearney will
be set at labor with the rests. f. Chroni

THE BANKERS DAUGHTER.

In the Classical regions Of Deadwood
May he seen this remarkable maiden,
And you'd fne that whateyer she said would
Have weight In the game YOU played In:
For she stands by the side OF the dealer,
And che passes the brandy aud water.
And no one In town is gentceler
Than she is-the bankers daughter!
She smiles when the others are '-sm Ing"
And u lovers lof whom she has plenty
She whispers, In toner most beguiIng,
Nov copper the ace for twenty"
And when they have lost 1t they swear, oh,
In accordarcr with Deadwood custom,
And think, II the maid was not fair, oh,
How faro might never haYe bust 'emi
But she urges them on In their SHINING,
And piles them with brandy and water
And all must confess that most winning
Are the ways OF the bankers d,ughter.

A HUSBANDS JOKE.
How Viennese Artist Painted His
wife's Feet for the Carnival


Among the strange freaks of the Wen.
nese Carnival has been the adoption by
several Of the leading beauties Of imita.
tioD feet and sandals, as accessories to my
biological or classical costumes. Having
endued flesh-colored maillots provided with
thin soles, these ladies committed their
delicate extremities to the manipulation of
skilled artists, who deftly painted there
upon counterfeit presentations Of toes san
dals, and laces. all complete. The pretty
wife of an eminent Viennese historical
painter had chosen the dress, or undress of
a water sprite, wherein to attend the &C.
schnas Ball." and solicited her husbands
sid to snake up" her feet in the manner
above indicated. He consented; but not
wishing: to enhance his wife's natural
charms by adventit.ous means, he put off
the foot-palnting operation until the last
moment. When, however, the carriage was
at the door, and the water sprite's scanty
toilet completed in all respects but one, he
seized brush and palate, and addressed
himself, seeming in feverish haste, to bis
task, hurying bis wife off to the ball as
soon as her mimic feet were ready without
giving her time to inspect them. On enter
ing the gaily.lighted ball room the lady cast
hastY glance at her husbands artistic
achievements. Her horror may be better
imagined than described when she perceiv-
ed that the pink silk tights in which her
daluty feet were imprisoned had been ad-
mirably illuminated by bis master hand
with horrible representations of chilblains,
bunions, and inveterate corns, only too
true to nature. That night she danced not
but sat in corner, hiding her travestied
feet under her chair as best she might.

Political Duels.

The practice OF fighting political duels,
though now confined chiefly to France and
Austria, was once universal Three gen.
erations ago every public party had its Paul
de Cassagnac. Within the memory of
many men still living, young member Of
the Irish Parliament, asking a veteran how
he should. achieve success there, was an
swered, Always have your pistol ready"
This was no figure of speech. Warren
Hastings, at time when bis fall would
probably have involved that of British In
dia, risked life in duel with Sir Philip
Francis. whom he shet through the body,
while escaping himself unLurt. The Duke
OF Wellington's meeting with Lord VIM
chelsea in Battersea Field, when the Iron
Duke fred disdainfully in ,hs air, has
found place in history, as also has Alex
auder Hamilton's fatal encounter with
Aaron Burr. Daniel O'Connell killed bis
man and was himself wounded more than
once. A very singular case OF this kind
marked the later life of the famous Irish
orator, Henry Grattan, who disabled Par
liamentary opponent in duel. "A friend
OF the latter came TO condnle with him,
and inveighed against his adversary In no
measured terms. "Hush ~ said the in
valid, there's little fellow in the chair
yonder who wouldn't be pleased to hear
you." The little fellow was no other than
Grattan himself, who, having Watched for
three nights beside his aptagonist's beS-
SIDE. had jnst fallen asleep from sheer ex-
haustion.

CANNED FRUITS. There are in
fruits and cereals three kinds of sugar !:
cane sugar, glucose, and frucose, ali
three nearly allied, but still each one
has peculiarities of its own. and vet one
IS easily changed TO another. In the
growth and maturity of plants these are
continually changing. Cane sugar is
easily converted into glucose. When it
is used for preserving fruits, if the sugar
Is boiled with the fruit. large portion
OF the sugar is converted into glucose.
which is not 50 sweet as the cane sugar
and the more acid there is in the fruit
the more sugar it requires, because the
acid aids ia converting the cane sugar

pieces from a SaWmill, four bv six. and
put them in boiling cOal-tar to the depth
OF two and half feet, keeping them
there Tor twenty or thirty minutes.
There was shallow drain across the

these posts in that low place, leaving
SIX or eight inches, that had been i'm tar.

experiments then. Sixteen years after

CREAM WHERE AND How
PROCURED. The pure cream of tartar
of commerce exists naturally IN the
grape. and during fermentation Of the
tart wines in France, it is deposited on
the sides and bottoms of the casks. In
its unrefined state, it is called crude tar
tar. or argOls, and is taken from the
cask after the wine has been drawn off.
Each farmer has his crop of it accord
ing to the amount of wine he has pro-
duced The manufacturers of the brand
known as the Royal Baking Powder.
are perhaps the larges users of cream of
tartar in the world, and who have agents
in various parts of Europe collecting
and forwarding the crude material.
1t is imported into this country as ar
gols, and does not appear upon the Gus
tom House entries except as aTgols-
never as cream of tart ar, for the reason
that the facilities for refining in this
country are superior to that of the old
countries, hence, it is brought here in
the crude form, and then subjected to
the process of refining.
This disDels the impression many have
that this article cannCt be produced liz
its native purity. There is no doubt but
what cream tartar is largely adulterated,
and that as ordinarily found in the shops
is cheapened by either burnt bones, terra
alba, or the hurtful alum, from 10 to 80
! per cent.
Dr. Chandler. President of the New
York Board of Health, as well as Or,
Mott, the Government Chemist, Dr.
/ Squibb and other high authorities have
denounced the wholesale adulteratiOn
( of this most wholesome and useful arti-
! Gle.
In view of the difficulties of getting
pure cream of tartar, DIR. II. y. Mott,
/ the Government Chemist, advises the Sc
/ lection of some standard Baking Pow
der, which has stood the test of chemical
/ examination, like the Royal Baking
! Powder, rather than run the risk of the
many adventurous compounds put upon
/ the market by ignorant or irresponsible
( parties, as baking powder properly pre-
pared is not only wholesome, but more
/ economical and convenient than yeast,
or the cream of tartar and soda found il
the market.
