NAny Persons

in Garden City and Hampstead believe
that the body Of A. r. Stewart now lies
in the crypt in the Stewart Memorial
Cathedral at Garden City. The story,
which contains many particulars, is
thus told by the New York sun of yes
terday: 1t is said that about two weeks
ago two large slabs Of bluestone were
brought up on freight train Each
was eight feet long, four feet wide, and
four inches thick. They were so heavy
that special appliances had to be brought
into requSition to take them from the
car and carry them to the Cathedral.
In each corner Of these slabs there were
eye-hOleS for the insertion of heavy bolts.
or this part OF the story there is no doubt.
What the slabs have been used for
however, : not matter Of equal GER
taiEtv.

ATest for Glucose Sugar.

A correspondent of the New York
Times gives the following simple test
for detecting glucose i'll sugar: II wish
to call the attent ion of your readers to
another process which | published a
year ago, and which can be applied i'm
mediately by any one, using only such
means as are always at command. This
is a great advantage to the average con
sumer or retail dealer. who wishes to
know ifthere is any glucose in his su-
gar, but who ttas neither methylic alco-
hol nor microscope at hand. This
process consists in putting about a ta-
blespOOntul of cold water in u tuubler,
and adding sucCeSsively several pinchcs
Of sugar. After each addition the IL
quid is shaken with little stick or a
spoon or any convenient stirrer. After
putting in four or five pinches Of sugar
the starch glucose ifpresent, will b.
seen as chalky white speckS. This test
takes three or four minutes.

A ENuF ssStar,"

From the New Castle Tri-weekly Star.
Justice should be done to Mr.. Archi-
bald Given in respect to the Court
House contract. We agree with the
rest that Mr.. Given must have lost the
money now claimed by him, but there
are two sides to the contract. Suppose
after Mr.. Given had been awarded the
contract, iron and all other building
material had fallen, and in consequence
he had made $1,000 by the operation,
would he or his friends have appealed
to the Legislature to permit him to re-
turn the gain to the Levy Court? We
think this is hardly probable no matter
how possible. Moreover, there has
been enough money appropriated with.
ont consulting the people by a popular
vote. In the first place the Court
House should not have been built; in
the second place the people were not
consulted; in the third place if the in
diyidual is injured let him seek redress
trolR the people ~ apart from the polit-
icians who have involved the county in
so large debt, for their convenience.
