Tho Formulation Of The World.

As an authority concerning the pop
ulatton of the different countries of the
world, the publication called Die Be
volkel uug der Erde, published by jus
tus Perthes of Gotha, occupies high
position. From the seventh issue Ct
this work, which has recently appeared
we find the total population of the
globe estimated at ABB 8S7 500, an
apparent decrease in the estimate of 1880
of about twenty two millions; while the
recent census fall the great countries
show an increase of over thirty mil
liOu3. This is, however, partly eX.
| planned by a reaajustment of the popu-'
lati0n of China, which, formerly given
at 434 G26. 500, has now been carefully
revis, d, and estimated at 37l.2O0.0 000
After this char ge Of figures tor China
Asia is set downlts possessing popula
Lion of 79559l 900; this includes the
two hundred and titty-two millions fol
British India, ard the fourteen and a.
half millions of the territory Of Russii
In Asia. The results of recent censu
in Europe show an increase OF ropu
lation, which is now stated at 327.743
400, as compared with 315 929 900 in 1888
an increase of about twelve millions
Atrica is set down as having a pOpu'a

How Prohibition was won i'm
NnWA ~ ~

Sky ago the temperance women
of Iowa started the crusade for prohibl-
tion, which has just been crowned with
such wonderful success. The Iowa
State Register says:
"It was prP-eminently a woman's
contest, in ordinary progress, conduct
and result. With three great
wes pons in the armory of WON an e
faith, elrnestness and love, these WON

years for the amendment to slacken,

A TORPEDO Cigar.

An engineer employed on some Of
the public works at Szegedin, Hungary
bought four cigars one day net long a:c
and began to smoke. He had finished
Que and laid another, half smoked, up.
on his writing. table when suddenly il
exploded, throwing bin from his chail
aud wounding his cheek, ears, lips and
left hand. Investigation showed that
the cigar had contained 3 glas- tabt
filled with nitro. glycerine. The fact
that tobacco is monopoly, manufac
tured and sold only by dealers liceu9eC
by the government, makes the mystery
deeper. If the officers cigar had beef
in his mouth when itexDloded he woulr
doubtless have been killed, rircum
stance which does not add tO the pleas
are of smoking in Szsgedin.

THE deeds of violence reported yes
terday are to be regretted by every
good citizen. Generally there was ex.
cellent order at the polls and had it not
been for the action of few hot heads
on both sides there would have beer
no violence at any cf the polls. There
may be those who have no sympathy
with Daniel Mcguire whose wounds
may prove fatal, but all good citizens
will regret both the cause and his mis-
fortune. II is great pity that mel
calling themselves good American cit
liens cannot go to the polls and vCt'
quietly and peaceably without indulg
ing in cts of violence that would dis
grace even untlmed animals.

WENDELL PHILLIPS once
said in a lecture in New
York: Nothing is more un.
certain than news. An in
cident happens and gets
into t h e papers Every
paper has it's own version
of it; and no paper has it as
i t actually happened. So
everything you read is col
ored by the paper you find
it in, You get used to the
papers; and you read; and
guess at whathas happened.
You discount everything.
To the Herald you apply
one formula of discount; to
the Tribune another, to the
Times another, to the Sun
another. The more YOU read
the less you know. To
prove it, read two papers.
So; nothing is more un-
certain than advertisements.
Goods get into them; ard
you can't recognize the
goods Every advertiser
has his own tale. You read
and guess. Or rather you
know the fact Sc well that
you don't read; you guess,
without reading.
Take up the first that
meet your eye: "Dress-
goods below cost. Our OBJ.
object is to reduce stock,
which is much too large"
Will you go to see the
goods? Why not? "Cheap
at $3.50 a yard; will be sold
at $l.5O." Ar'n't you afraid
|somebody'll be there before
you? "If you have seen our
largest stocksin other years,
multiply the number of gar
ments by five, multiply the
styles by five, multiply the
elegance by five; and you
will have an approximate
idea OF our present &c. &c"
why do you divide the ad-
vertisement by five? Pre-
serves health, saves doctor
bills, cures without drugs" "
ugh? ut has cured others:
| it will cure YOU" Beg Tar-
don. Isn't 1t well, though,
to touch bottom, to under
stand thlrgs?
What causes a perfume
Ito become famous? The
PHILOSOPHERS stone lies
fright under the answer to
that question.
i Among the l,OOO,O 100000
noses in this world there
are a Jew thousand super
fine ones that detect the
quality of the infinitely lit
tie breath of an odoriterous
atom. A very few perfum-
ers, beginning away back
in the dark of Asia, have sc
put together the precious
bteaths of Nature, as to
; yield the swift fragrance OF
living flowers; even the

A Thorough Job.

Judge M, well-known jur1st lv-
ing near Cincinnati, was fond of relating
this anecdote. He had once occasion to
send to the village for carpenter, and
a sturdy young fellow appeared with his
tools.
"I want this fence mended to keep
the cattle. There are some unplaned
boards-use them. It is out of sight
from the house, so you need not take
time to make it neat job. will only
pay you dollar and half"
The Judge went to dinner, and, COM
ing out, found the man carefully plan
ing each board. Supposing that he was
trying to make a costly job of it, he Or
dered him to nail them on at once just as
they were, and continued his walk.
When he returned the boards were
planed and numbered ready for mailing.
''I told you that this fence was to be
covered with vines" he said, angrily.
II do not care how it looks.
"I do" said the carpenter, gruffly,
carefully measuring his work. When it
was finished there was no part of the
fence so thorough in finish.
''How much do you charger" asked
the Judge.
ga dollar and o half, said the man,
shouldering his tools.
The Judge stared. "Why did you
spend all that iubor ON the job, if not
tor money!"
For the job, SIR"
"Nobody would have seen the poor
work on it.
"Bnt L should haye known it was
there. No; I'll take only the dollar
and half" And he took it am went
away.
Ten years afterward, the Judge had
the contract to give for the building of
certain magnificent public buildings.
There were many yapplicants among mas
ter-builders, bur the face OF one caught
his eye.
at was my man Of the fence" he
said. 81 knew We should have only
good, genuine work from him. I gave
him the contract and it made rich man
Of him."
1t is pity that boys we're not taught
in their earliest years that tie highest
success belongs only to the man, be he
carpenter, farmer, author or artist,
whose work is most sincerely an thor
oughly done.

The Nearest Star.

In all interesting article on Southern
stars, reprinted i'll Science, MIR. Pope, of
New Zealand, describes Alpha Centauri,
the known nearest fixed star to the earth.
This magnificent double star, he says, is
the finest object Of the kind in the heav-
ems. Beside being binary star of very
short period, every one knows that Alpha
Centallri is our next neighbor among the
stars, and that it was the fi.t to give
mp the secret of its para!lax under direct
transit circle observations. The color
of this star is straw-yellow, or sometimes
golden. yellow, according to the state of
the atmosphere. When there is haze,
Of course the smaller star is somewhat
more affected by 1t than the larger. This
tends to give it slight brownish tint
when the sky is not clear. Alpha Cen
tauri is star of the second class. Its
spectrum is very like that of the sun.
Even tho principal dark lines are fine,
and they apparently occupy the same
relative positions as do the welI-knOwn
lettered lines in the solar spectrum.
There can he no doubt, i'll fact, that the
physical constitution of this great star
Is, in most respects, the same as that of
the sun. 1t is probable, however, that
Alpha Centauri Is less developed than
the sun; for. us NJ. Proctor has pointed
out, its light is brighter than its mass
would lead us to expect ii to be, judging
from the light of our sun as compared
vita his mass. While the mass Of the
star is to the mass Of the sun as 81, the
light Of the star is to the light Of the sun
as 81. Now, if it is true, as ply sicists
have good grounds for believing, that
the sun is, and has been, very owly but
surely losing his heat, just as our earth
has mCst certainly lost an enormous
,mount Of hers, there must have been
time when the sun and his system were
ess developed, but fur hotter and bright
,r, than they are now-when they
formed, probably. a white star---that is
10 say, there was, quite possibly, time
wher the light from our sun bore the
.ame relation to his mass as the light
from Alpha Centauri bears now to its
mass. We may also believe that matters
IRE less advanced in the planets (f there
ire any Of this neighborlng system than
hey are with lis.
