Old stephen Girartl.

tits expected that during thus season
the Washington monument. the. corner
stone of which was laid half century
ago, will reach half it's proposed height.
It's unfinished condition is but poor en-
couragement to hope that more than
eight or ten hundred Of the monuments
proposed to be erected to the memory Of
Garfield will ever reach the dignity OF
a corner stone condition. Americans
build precious few mortuary monuments
but there are q lot of sentimentalist who,
without ever contributing cent, are
forever proposing all sorts of monument
al schemes. This sort of cheap philan-
thropist should be, ,squelched. Once mp
on time a meeting was called in Phil
adelphia to express sympathy with some
afflicted people. Having listened 10
words, words, words, until his ears ached
Stephen Girard arose and said:
Gentlemen, I'm sorry 800 worth.
How much are you sorryw
Most of the takers left, forgetting to
signify in this practical way inst how
sorry they were.--Chicago Times.

MUSICAL CLOTHES WRINGERs.
Biddeiord nluminator.


A marble faced, smooth -SDnged
chap called upon a lady the other
day, bearing in his hand square
wooden box. The lady answered his
call at the door and said:
"No, sir; we don't want to buy
anything"
MADAME" he replied, ~ am a
benefactor to the human race. In me
you behold the bearer of the olive
branch of peace to womankind. AS
such you cannot refuse to listen to
me. Any man who can add pleas
ure to duty, and bring happi-
ness to hardship, deserves better
than to have the door ruthlessly shut
in his face. Madame, are you a
friend of your sex?"
81 suppose | am. But we don't
want to buy no soap nor take no
magazine"
"Do you think for a moment that
benefactor would condescend to ped
die soap? No, madame! But to
come right down to business. l am
the general travelling agent for the
wonderful Duplex Musical Orguin-
ette Clothes Wringer.' This great
Invention is making a complete revo-
luton in laundry work. By happy
arrangement the principles of the or
gninette have been so skillfully ap-
piled to the wringer that the same
labor now wrings the clothes and
fills the air with delicious music
For instance, the wringing of a
shirt causes it to play Whittier than
Snow and the wringing of a napkin
or simildr piece OF linen calls out
THE Little Ones at Home And so
on for every garment we turn out an
appropriate tune, while the whole
combine to make the wringer q So
lace to declining years, and harbin-
ger of joy to youth. How many of
these wringers would you like, mad
ame ?"
81 don't believe care for any. We
hire our washing done, and there's
lady who plays the piano across the
way"
"Don't want one Only consider,
madame, that labor as exemplifed by
wringing is the bulwark of our insti-
tutions; music, rendered by the Or
guinette, adds happiness to the labor
worn heart. Not want one in the face
of all these facts; why, madame, yon
must be derangedw
But ere he arrived at the close of
this sentence, he heard something
slam. 1t was the door. The woman
was on the other side of it.

The doors of the main cabin are
beautiful in design and workman
ship. The general appearance OF the
City of New Orleans and her twin
sister is calculated to win the praise
and admiration of all who have a
taste for all that's graceful and beau
tifuI in a fine, fast steamboat, for
thew are indeed models of marine ar
chitecture, of which not only their
builders, bat their owners, may just
ly feel proud.
The following is list Of the build
ers and furnishers Of the two boats:
Hulls, cabins, painting, etc., both
boats, Howards, Of Jeffersonville.

The bedding, spring-bottoms, lin

be furnished by the Anchor-line at
st. Louis, upon the arrival of the two
boats there.
In conclusion,we will say that what
we have said of the City OF New Or

getty of Baton Rouge" Both boats
are alike, and were built and furnish
ed alike by the same parties, with the
exception of the machinery and boil

are excellent jobs of work and both
"hard to beat"

FARM NOTES

LIVE STocK IN WINTER.-The
farm animals ct this season are direct
y dependent upon the care and at
tentlon Of the farmer. To pass the
winter with profit they must be we'll
kept. Animals are very complicated
engines, and must be run by careful
engineer The food they receive is
he fuel, and the daily rubbing, clean
iog, etc., may be likened to the in
spection, cleaning and oiling Of the
engine. The fae! must be equal to
the demands made of the animal en-
CINE, else the machinery will run at a
disadvantage, and therefore with
diminished profit. When the water
i low and the FIRE almost out, the
engine i source Of loss to the owner.
0n the other hand the FIRE may be
brisk, and the boiler we'll supplied,
bnt some screw is loose, or a part
rubs another too closely and the
friction thus produced neutralizes
much Of the force. So 10 the animal
machine, al the parts must work har
moniousIy together, or in other words
there pust be perfect health to OBJ
tain NE best results. An ANNA
nay hare tho best food in sufficient
Quantity, and still pass hard winter
ard without profit to its owner. Food
of ihe best kinds without shelter, is
y the animal economy like fuel in an
engine that e rusty and loose aud ont
of order. Both are expensive methoes
of arriving At desired results. It
takes too much force TO run the ma
chine il both cases. As it is cheap

making four heaps Of each load and
kplacink the heaps six yards apart, the

THE Sacramento Rocord-iui says that Senator Jones has gwen yer: en- couragi1g account of President A-thurs character a, d disposition, and since it comes from one who has had the best possible opportunity of knowing his subject, it must be regarded as m a great measure authoritative. He says that nothing could be more erroneous than the notion that Arthur is in any way weak: flat he is on the contrary a re- markaIly firm man; that he is man Of broad views, and far aooye the littleness of faction: that hc may be relied on not to take a position with any party within the party. and that he promises to make very safe, prudent and satisfactory Executive. All lights u9on President Arthur arc naturally sought at this mo- meut with some cagerne--, hut this IS the most pleasant that has yet been cast upon his character.

The question of a water supply for the city oC Tucson has made another of its spa~modic appearances before the peo- pIa. While there are several fertile sources of supply but little has been done in a practical way to give our city a system of water works that its size and importance demands.
 Among the several schemes talked of, is that of raising the waters of the Santa Cruz, in the vicinity Of Warmers mill, into reservoirs to be constructed on the adjacent mountain. This scheme pos sesses what seems to be an insurmount- able obstacle tosuecess-the presence Of a large percentage of alkali in the water, and although double filtration is pro- posed for it's purifcation, there still re- maius a doubt SIS to the efficacy of that process in removing the deleterious in- gredient
 An abundant supply Of better water could be developed at Punta de Agua, twelve miles from Tucson, on the Santa Cruz. It is stated that this water is en- trely free from alkah, and is good and wholesome. The distance is the only obstacle to its being utilized
 Another source of water supply exists, which is free from either Of the obiec- tions given. It is a well known fact that the portion of Tucson beginning near the railroad depot and extending east ward. obtains very pure and good water by sinking wells to a depth Of from forty to eighty feet. The supply seems prac- tically uexhaustble, as in the case of the railroad company's well. where constant pumping causes no decrease in the vol ume of water. The water IS generally distributed under that portion of the city and is not confined to veIus here and there. With proper pumping machinery the water could be raised into distribu- ting reservoirs and supplied easily to all parts of the city at a much less original cost than by either of the first men, toned plans.
 Samples oi water from each oi the three sources are to be subjected to a chemical analysis and the result will be given to the public through these col umus. Considerations only as to the quality of the water should govern the selection of its source, and when the best lies almost beneath our feet there can certainly be no necessity of going far away for an inferior article.

DURING thc past two or tLrea years the attention of the Chinese authorities has been directed to the evils Of the opium traffic. The Vicsrovs of several provinces have issued rrotlamations prohibiting the cultivation of the plant and shutting up retail opium shops.
