Monopolies i'm Spain.

There were recently three or four
great trade monopolies held by the
Spanish government - tobacco, gun
powder, quicksilver and salt The last
aamed and most onerous of these--the
salt monopoly-is now repealed, and in
it's place and with it's name is levied a
sort of income tax, graduated, not ac-
cording to the consumption OF salt, but
the means Of the taxpayer. The old
gabelle has, however, left its survivals.
Abandoned deposits of salt are to be
seen in many of the small towns. Away
from the large towns salt is never seen
on the table, uncleaned rock salt is
used in cookery, and if you should call
for salt little of this will be brought
to you in piece of dirty paper. Pepper,
mustard or other condiments known to
the civilized world are not to be OBJ
tanned. For wonder the monopol1zed
cigars are good better than in any part
of Europe or America at the same price.
One can smoke very fragrant regalia

province is entirely metallic chiefly
gold, 100 real pieces; silver, 10, 8, 4, Q
and real pieces, and coppers of vari-
GUS sorts, mostly, but not all on the
decimal system. In some provinces,
Catalonia, for example, the duodecimal
coppers are preferred to the decimal,
and the latter, although legal tender,
are refused. Bank notes circulate in
Madrid, but not far beyond it. Paper
money has had its day in Spain, and
that day, at least for long time yet, is
over.

Amsterdam and Rotterdam.

Amsterdam and Rotterdam look like
no other cities in the world. They
have hydrocephalus, like Venice
oceans of water everywhere. Amster-
dam is built on eighty islands, con-
nected by 800 bridges across the muddy
bitches they call canals The buildings
mainly are of unpainted brick, with
gable-ends to the streets, and they are
erected, like those of Venice, on mill
ions of piles driven into the mud. But
this alluvia1 deposit is not so firm as
the sandy sediment in the Adriatic Ia
goons, and 50 it happens that almost all
of the houses here and in Rotterdam
are out of plumb. You cross q bridge
and instinctiyely hesitate to advance,
for it seems as if the buildings ahead
were about to tumble down and crush
you. On both sides OF the street
they bend forward toward each
other, so that their cornices are
two or three feet nearer than their
bases You gather courage and pro-
ceed, and further on you see other
houses bowling. Here is tall, toppling
chimney, and around it In circle are
various houses gravely saluting it.
None of the buildings seem to fall
down-at least did not detect any In
the act-but they rise and engage in
their bricky salaams at almost every
angle from the perpendicular, and In
utter disregard of the feelings of way
>farers. Crazy little steamboats, ira
verse the dirty little canals great brick
warehouses boldly bend over and look
down into their turbid mirrors; mer-
chantmen from Java stick their yards
up through the branches of sycamore
trees upon the banks; here and there
ships climb mp the ladder-locks; here
and there windmills churn the air and
pour the water out into the sea. This
is a queer old town. But I should
think the Hollanders would wash theil
canals

perimenters dug up the body, expecting
to find it dead, but found it perfectly

Mormon wives.

The Mormon priests tell the Mormon
woman that plural marriage is the or
dinance of God! That all it brings her
of anguish is necessary self-denial to
win Gods love, and that to submit to
it is her duty. A CHASTITY burial cere-
mony that is practiced by the Mormons
rivets the hold polygamy has on the su-
perstition of these creatures. Every
wife that is buried has black cloth
laid on her face, and the Mormon women
are taught to believe that on the resur-
rection day, when the righteous are
called into the joys of their Lord, no
hand but that of husband can remove
the cloth, and that unless the cloth is
lifted by his hand she must remain in
outer darkness forever. A woman who
believes that the Mormon women
believe it-can't help behaving herself,
no matter how many wives her husband
takes. She has to keep ON the right
side of the only man who can take off
that cloth.

A special vessel for stanley.


A vessel of special and ingenious de-
sign is being prepared for Stanley's use
in Africa. It will be propelled by a
stern paddle-wheel, and the hull will
will be arranged in such a manner that
it can be readily subdivided into num-
Der of sections, each being foatable and
provided with fittings for receiving four
large wheels. These wheels can be at
tached to each section while afoat. so
that it can be drawn out of the water for
transport overland without difficulty.
Each of the subdivision of the hull
forms, when fitted with the wheels, q
complete wagon of itself, capable of
carrying the machinery of the steamer,
merchandise, stores, etc. 1t is to be
completed by the end of this year. and
will be tested afoat under steam on the
Thames.

some Facts in the Fur Trade.

II know a sporting no Tat bought
a coat, the ornamental skin OF which
came from Maine. He wanted some
thing striking and cheap, and what do
you suppose he got? Give it up? Well,
he calls and thinks it Australian mink,
but it is good, honest American skunk
q good fur, too, and sells well, only the
name would kill it if we retained it.
Over $50, 900 skunk skins are handled
by the trade every year. New York
and Ohio furnish the majority. They
bring from the trapper 80 cents to 81.
They are deodorized by new and satis-
factory process, and are very popular
under fancy names.
what we call fur in the trade" said
the expert, taking up skin, lis this.
You see, by spreading open the hair of
this seal there are two kinds of hair
one, the fur that is short and lies close
to the skin. and another the oyerhair
that is long and what we see at first
glance of the animal. The difference
between the two is very great, the fur
being soft, downy, silky, and sometimes
curly, while the overhair is coarse and
IlSIu. EaCu Has u peculiar VALUE 11I
many purposes, but particularly in
felting; the fine, upon treatment
to hot water, readily joins in a
solid mass, while the long hair can
be woven and spun. When the animal
is alive the uses of the two hairs are
seen. The fine underhair keeps out
water and cold, while the overhair
prevents felting and entangling. In
some cases one is extremely valuable
alone, and in others the combination is
equally so.
"The house cat is one of the most
valuable of the fur-bearing animals
and when they mysteriously disappear
from the back fence they often find
their way to the furrier. It is an actual
fact that in 1882 over 100000 house
cats were used in the fur trade. Black
white, Maltese, and tortoise-shell skins
are most in demand. They are made
into Innings, and used in philosophers
apparatus.

The Percentage Of Active Old Men on
the Increase.

In young country like this, where
life is continually at fever heat, and
where action rather than reflection car
ries the day, old age seems out of place.
In the staid old towns and cities of
England, Hawthorne tells us in his
stOld Home" that he observed that
old age came forth more cheerfully and
generally into the sunshine than among
ourselves, where the rush, stir, hustle
and irreverent energy of youth are SO
preponderant that the poor forlorn
grandsires begin to doubt whether they
have right to breathe in such a world
any longer, and so hide their silvery
heads in solitude. But "fast" as
this country and this period both
proverbially are, it is fact that the
percentage of old men who continue in
active life, and who do not show their
years except to a close scrutiny, is on
the increase. Erect and active octo-
genarians, even, are not unknown on
our streets, whose appearance still
makes them pass current as being in
the executive period of life. The con-
slant improvement in the average style
of living In the matter of dwelling, food
and raiment, perceptibly promotes
longevity and increases the number OF
cases of it,

A Thirty-Three Years sleep.

In the very heart Of the Adirondack
wilderness is located what is known as
the deserted village" Fifty years ago
10000 acres of land were purchased by
man named Henderson, and other
capitalists, st. Francis Indian having
disclosed to the party that the region
was rich in ore. \ blast furnace, a
forge, saw mill, tenement houses, q
store, school-house and bank were
erected, and hundreds of thousands OF
dollars expended in cutting roads and
other improvements. Operations were
carried on twenty years. In 1849 Hem
derson was accidentally shot dead, and
five years later business was suddenly
suspended. The ponderous water
wheel and machinery are just where
they stopped thirty-three years ago.
Wheelbarrows and tools lie around as
though operations had been discon-
tinued only Yesterday. The village is
now the headquarters of New York
sporting club, and the greater part of
the year Myron Buttles, agent of the
club, and his family, are the only in
habitants of this once busy spot

A Chinese Restaurant in France.

While the French are marching into
China, a Chinese restaurant has in
vaded Paris. Among the delicacies of
its bill of fare are desiccated eggs. Fresh
duck eggs are covered with mixture
of cinders, lye soda, powdered icorice,
lie in oil and are left for several mouths
until their yolks become first green
and finally black. The darker the yolk
the greater the delicacy. The birds
nests from which the far-famed soup is
made are built by species of swallow
which abounds on the coasts of Java.
Ceylon and Borneo, and practically
consists of gelatinous substance OBJ
tanned from marine plants. The nests
are boiled either in chicken broth or in
milk with almonds. The result very
much resembles vermicelli soup, but is
more costly. The Chinese restauranter
also offers his customers smoked sharks
fins, dried cutie and salted rats.

The Climate for GOOD voices.

An English newspaper says Ameri-
can singers have made much greater
mark in Great Britain than American
actors, Notwithstanding the conspicu-
Gus absence in America of long-estab-
lished academies and colleges of music.
"The climate it adds, clear and dry
as it is, will scarcely account for the
number of good voices produced in
America, for one effect of the Ameri-
can climate is apparently to pinch the
throat and cause the high-pitched tones
and the usual twang by which the
enumeration of SO many Americans is
marked"

from the client. The client is madly

wiser, "and I am sure that away down

me. / am going to test her." He
pulled out pistol and said: '1 am
going to her with this and say: Here,
shoot me down; don't care to live any
more

Utilizing the water Power Of Falls.

1t is proposed to utilize the water
power at the falls of the Potomac, a
few miles above Washington, for the
purpose of lighting that city by cleo
tricity. The plan is to put cluster of
powerful lights upon the top of the
Washington monument, which is 400
feet high, and this will give the city q
condition of perpetual moonlight The
experiment will be interesting and valu-
able, and ought to be encouraged. The
idea of supplying motive power for all
New York by wire from Niagara falls
has often been talked about, and the
Potomac scheme, if successful, will
demonstrate its practicability.
