Ismail Pasha, the eX-Khedive of Egypt,
takes the world easy. For some time after
his exile he cruised around in a splendid
yacht, with his numerous wives and Il null
titude of retainers. Then we heard of him
in Naples, living in regal style. Following
is the latest item we discover concerning
his progress: "He has become the owner
of Caen Wood Tower, Highgate, England,
a modern house of Elizabethan design, with
appointments of great magnificence. 1t is
surrounded with twelve acres of ground,
admirably laid out, and including a NINA
ture farm and diary. 1t is said that the
gentleman who negotiated the sale in the
first instance purchased at $40, 900, and re-
sold the property OH the following day to
the agents of Ismail Pasha for 100000. Per-
haps it is impertinent, but the public can-
not but inquire, Where does he get the
money to indulge in all this extravaganza"

New YORK, Feb. 1O.-A better feeling
prevailed at the opening on Change this
morning and prices ranged trife better,
but Denver started decline. Toward
noon there was rally and the after trad
ing was light, with the feeling quiet. The
squeeze in the Lake Shore impressed
shorts in other stock with conviction that
the Lake Shore plan might be worked on
them, and they therefore placed themselves
out of harms way. While this idea was
spreading Mr.. Willard began to buy
Union Pacific. He bought an
amount estimated all the way from 10000
to 10000 shares. The purchase was thought
to be covering. Boston advices were that
the transfer books showed no great chan
ges in the holdings of investors. Late
transfers had been almost wholly by bro
kers. A private letter from Boston stated
that the road had earned 10 per cent. on
its stock for the year and would pay 7 per
cent.
1t was stated very positively
that Mr.. David Bows had
lately been large buyer of
the stock. The Post says that if the set
Element of the legal fight between the
Western Union and Mutual companies is

consolidation of offices, lines, service, etc.,
to an extent that will reduce the expenses
of both companies from 100000 to $780,
600, and consequently leave that much
more for net income.

a man to die?" The doctor said, Sin your
condition, governor, it is a matter of only
a few hours Governor Jewell then
said, sail right, DOCTOR" and
settled back quietly upon his
pillow. The governors family consists of

Panic in 2 Dry Goods store.

New YORK, Feb. 1O.-A panic occurred
tonight in Ridley & Sons large dry goods
store, Grand street. The Bell engine that
furnishes power for the electrict light
slipped from its pulley and the lights
went out The rafting of the belt in its
fall made great noise. A large num-
Der of people, mostly women and chill
dren, were in the place at the
time. In the rush for the doors,
women fell down stairs and
some person cried "fre." The women
screamed and struggled to get out. The
employees of the store tried to stop the
panic. The store has thirty-six exits. 1t
was emptied in minute and half and
the crowd was in the street unframed.
The alarm of fire brought the engines
which we're met by the police and stopped,
to avert additional excitement.

V1cKsBURa, Feb. 1O.-Captain Marshall,
United States engineer IN charge, states
that of the Levees at Alsatia and from
Bedfords to the delta, there were only two
in danger in his district which extends
from the mouth of White river south to
Warrenton, twelve miles below Vicksburg.
He thinks he can keep the water out at
Alsatia by a protection being built six
feet high and 1900 feet long.
About 500 men and ninety teams are work
ing at the Alsatia levee. From Bedford's to
Delta, in Madison parish is in much more
dangerous condition, and in tbs opinion of
the engineers will not be up in time to
prevent rise of five feet going over.
Officers of the steamer White report that

Notice was given on Change to-day that
at noon next Monday the members will be
called upon to vote on the proposition to
petition the Legislature to pass bill pro-
viding that the minimum licenses for
saloons shall be $500. There is hardly
any doubt that large majority of the
thinking and tax paying members of the
board are in favor of the measure, and in
all probability it will be adopted by a
large majority.

Especial Telegram to the Globe
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 10.-Miss Louisa
Montague, the $4,000 beauty of Fore
paug's circus, comes up smiling. Yesterday
in suitagainst Forepaugh for $4,000 for
breach of contract, she was awarded $3.50
To-day she began another suit for inju-
ries received from falling from the back
of an elephant. The lady herself, who ap-
peared in close fitting dress of black
velvet, took the stand and identified her
contract with Forepaugh, which was then
read to the jury, providing that she should
travel with the show and appear in the
street parade as Lalla Rookh upon an ele-
plant, for the compensation of 500 per
week. She said in 1881 she was
out in Illinois. Her elephant was
taken sick, ard she was obliged
to mount a new elephant with a sore spine.
The brute reared on his hind legs, and the
beauty tumbled in very undignifed man
ner. She was laid up for several weeks,
and on Monday she will tell the court all
about it. Growing out OF the beauty's
suit is another one of curious nature.
Her lawyer, James Fl. Heverin, in speech
to the jury, charged Forepaugh with every
crime in the calendar. To-day Forepaugh
began suit against Heverin for SANDER.

serbs the Mutual Union.
New YORK, Feb. 1O.-The meeting of the
executive committee of the Western Union
Telegraph company this afternoon lasted
over an hour. The object of the meeting
was to ratify an agreement, to last ninety
nine years, whereby the Western Union
company leases all the lines and property
of the Mutual Union, to pay per cent.
| on the Mutual Union bonds and IL per
| cent. dividend on the Western Union stock.
1t is understood that the agreement is
| ratified.
New YORK, Feb. 1O.-The Tribune to-
morrow Will say: The Western Union
Telegraph company has leased the lines
of the Mutual Union cnmpany, guarantee
ing the interest on the bonds aud annual
dividends of ~ per cent. on stock. This
agreement was approved by the directors
of both companies at full meetings Of the
boards yesterday. The Western Union di-
rectors met shortly after noon and the
Mutual Union directors an hour or two
afterward. No opposition to the plan
was offered at either meeting, and
the approval of the stockholders of
both companies is expected to be given
with the same unanimity. Stockholders
will not be called together, but it is ex-
pected they will express their consent IN
writing There is said to be not the slight
est doubt that stockholders of both COM
panies will assent to the agreement at
once. By the terms of the lease it is pro-
vided that the Western Union shall assume
all obligations and contracts of the Mutual
Union; that it shall pay interest on So
100000 bonds and IL per cent. dividends
on 100000 spare capital
of the company; and that
it shall establish sinking fund of not less
than 900 year toward the payment of
the principal of the bonds. These charges
amount to 100000 year and interest to
100000; guaranteed dividends to $780,
600: and payne j to sinking fund of $780,
600. The earn lgs of the company have
been recently at the rate Of about $1,000
GOO a year, and the cost of operating its
lines about two-thirds OF the gross earnings.
A large reduction in expenses is expected
to be made by the practical consolidation
of the company with the Western
Unian. The offices will be united
as rapidly as possible and the number of
GENERATORS reduced. The Western Union
officers say the cost of working the newly
acquired lines will be very small, because
that company will not be obliged to in
crease greatly its present force. The lease
is to go into effect Immediately, but the
arrangement of the details is likely to
take some time. All existing contracts of
the Mutual Union, both for sending press
dispatches and leasing lines, are to be OBJ
served by the lessee company. The Mu-
tual Union has large number of these
contracts. The company's officers assert
that all of them are sources of profit, but
it is understood that few of them were
objected to by the Western Union COM
pany. No exceptions were made, however,
in the lease ratified yesterday.

THE WHISKY BILL,

Representatives Chandler, of Massa-
chusetts, West of New York, and Sherwin,
of Illinois, are classed among the recent
converts to the whisky bill. The
friends of the measure f1aim
that they are daily galSng
strength. The accession of supporters
does not happen in Jumps but in single
lots, and slowly and surely. They have
been, mustered in full force several times
lately, but at the eleventh hour Butter
worth, of Ohio, has decided to wait. To
put it as mildly as it can be put, there is
feeling that the bill has not been managed
to the best advantage. Last year the man
ayers placed few thousand dollars where
they did no good. This year the distribu-
ton of fine old rye and bourbon was left to
select coterie of correspondents who kept
it among themselves. Independent journal
lists have TO buy their own whisky, as US
ual. It is evident nothing can be done
with the bill while the tariff question is
not disposed of. Both sides admit that
the country would rise and howl were
the whisky troubles settled before the
question of taxation. In view of
the situation, the following letter to Rep
resentative Willis is of interest:
SIR: In reply to your letter of the 4th
inst, transmitting the letter of Geo. w,
Swearingen, president of the Wildwood
Distilling company, you are informed that
it is not used to construe bill pending in
congress before it becomes law. would

School Room Ventilation.
New York Tribune.


A school room that is solely dependent on
open windows for ventilation is unfit for use
during the greater part of the year. Children
sitting near the windows cannot be exposed
to draughts, and except in warm weather
such rooms cannot be thoroughly ventilated
in this way. The device of fitting boards IN
der the windows so as to separate the sashes
few inches in the middle and admit fresh
air without creating current, is useful in
hospitals, but does not meet the requirements
of crowded school room. The ventilation
of school buildings ought not to be left to
chance, but should be systematically pro-
vided for. Children are tender plants that
thrive in fresh air, and droop, spindle and
wither in foul air.
One of the best proofs that the air in school
rooms is too often unfit for children to
breathe is the prevalence of near-sightedness
among the older pupils. The eye, being the
most delicate bit of mechanism of the human
body, requires the best blood which the
physical system can command, and conse-
quently suffers more than any other organ
when the blood is Initiated by the inhalation
Of foul air year after year. To near-sighted-
ness are added many other positive indica-
lions of the baleful effects of carbonic acid in
the school atmosphere-the pale faces and
impaired health of the children and the
chronic headaches and nervous depression of
the teachers. The subject is one of vital i'm
portance to the public, and any authoritative
information which may be fo.thc~ mir r

Electricity Not the Light Of the Flu
ture.
[Demorest's Monthly.l


1t will not be electrical illumination, saw
the scientists That involves too much cost.
Electricity is developed by violence; that is,
by waste and the disturbance of atoms of
matter, which is necessarily expensive For
sensational uses for spectacles, for the light
ing of city squares, streets and parks, where
expense is minor consideration, the electrical
light will, of course, be employed; but the
great mass of the community will never be
able to use this costly iliuminator to Danish
darkness from their humble dwellings.
Nature has been searched to find out how
light can BE- generated under the cheapest
conditions, and the giowworm has been hit
upon as furnishing a hint for the cheap but
effective domestic light Of the future. The
various insects which emit flashes of light in
the dark, do so with an exceedingly small ex-
penditure of mechanical force. It has been
suggested that curtains, wall paper and the
coverings of furniture could be SO prepared
that, by slight disturbance of the air,
they would emit a steady but mellow light at
a cost of far less than candle or kerosene
lamp. Scientific men are now at work on
this problem, and if it should be successfully
solved, it would be a very great benefit to
the poor of all nations.
