AUSTRIA.

VIENNA, May 5.-Little progress seems
to have been made towards adjusting the
grievances, which caused the bakers assis-
tants to go on strike. Last night thousand
of the strikers engaged in riot of the
assembly rooms. Furniture was destroy
ed and windows broken. The rioters then
threw up barricade in the street to en-
able them to resist the police, who had been
summoned to quell the disturbance and
who had difficult time in subduing the
Infatuated mob. simultaneously with this
outbreak demonstration was made in an
other part of the city by four hundred more
strikers, who attacked the building occupi-
ed by the bakers association, the doors and
windows of which they broke. Both par
ties of rioters finally dispersed.
VIENNA, May 5.-The meeting of King

THE OLD WORLD
GREAT BRITAIN,

PORTSMOUTH, England, May in ex-
plosiou has occurred in the government
powder magazine situated on Priddy's yard
in Portsmouth harbor. The building was
completely demolished. 1t is reported
that nine persons were killed and num-
Der injured.
Lo4DoN, May 5. Later information
from Portsmouth states that the explosion
in the powder magazines on Priddy's yard
was caused by the accidental ignition
of some powder during the filing of
a quantity OF shells. The loss of life,
happily, is not so great as al first reported.
Only two persons were killed outright.
Five, however, were so badly injured that
they are in a dangerous condition.
p ma dispatch just received from
Portsmouth states that four of the per-
sons injured at the powder explosion have
died, making the total number of fatalities
six.

A Bear as a Hunter.

J. Rae tells the following story, the
circumstances Of which were given him
b. an eyewitness, very truthful and
honest Esquimaux of Repulse Bay. He
said: Il and two or three other Innuit
were attempting to approach some
walrus, in winter, lying on the ice close
to the water, kept open by the strong
current in FOX's channel. AS We were
getting near we saw that large white
bear was before us; he had reached, in
the most stealthy manner, high
ridge of ice Immediately above where
the valrus was lying; he then seized a
mass Of ice in his paws, reared himself
on his hind legs, and threw the ice
with great force on the head Of half
grown walrus, and then sprang down
upon it. The Esquimaux then ran up,
speared the bear, and found the walrus
all but dead. He thus secured both
animals. [ should add that the bear
threw the ice as if he was left-pawed. ("

Peter Cooper.

Peter Cooper was born in the city of
New York, Feb. y, 1871, and died
there on the 9Th of April, 1888. His
family We're distinguished for their IN
wayering devotion to the cause of
American Independence. His father
was q Lieutenant in the patriot army,
and his maternal grandfather sacrificed
q large fortune in the cause of free
dom. Up to his seventeenth year, Peter
followed the various avocations Of his
fa5her-hatter, brewer, brick-maker
and again brewer-which he carried on
in Peekskill, CatskiIl, Brooklyn and
Newburg, n. Y. During his apprentice
ship to the coachmaking business,
which lasted four years, from
his 18th to his Dist year, he in
vented mortising machine, which was
Of much pecuniary benefit to his master,
but none to himself. Without capital,
he went to work making machines for
shearing cloth, for which he was paid
$3.50 fAay for three years. Atthe end
Of that time he had saved enough
money to buy the right of the State of
New York for manufacturing the ma
chimes, and embarked in business on his
own account. He was successful, and
aided his father and, as he naively said,
In consequence of this my father new
er had the modification of failing in
business. The same is true of my own
affairs. So far as ever having failed In
business, I do not remember the week
or month when every man who worked
for me did not get his pay when it was
due" The wool-shearing machine
business became valueless when the
war of 1872 commenced. In this con-
nection it is interesting to note that the
principle of these machines was pre-
cisely the same as the one now used so
largely in reapers and moving machines.
At the termination of the machine
business Mr.. Cooper bought a twenty
years lease of two houses and six lots
of ground, where the Bible House"
now stands, opposite the Cooper Insti-
tute. He erected some wooden build
ings, and carried on the grocery bust
ness for three years. Soon after he
purchased a glue factory, between
Thirty-frst and Thirty-fourth streets,
which he carried on for twenty-ope
years, and then removed the business
to Brooklyn, where it is continued at
the present time
In 1928 Mr.. Cooper purchased a
large lot Of land in and about the city
of Baltimore, Nd, and established the
Canton Iron Works. Here he built, in
1880, after his own designs, loco
motive engine which would turn the
short and frequent curves in the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad. It saved that
road from bankruptcy and opened up a
new era in railroading. After success
fully disposing of the Canton works,
Mr.. Cooper erected rolling and wire
mill on Third avenue, New York. He
sold these out, aud at Trenton, n. J.,
erected what was at that time the largest
rolling mill IN this country for the man
ufacture of railroad iron. Here the
first iron beams were rolled, now so
much used in fire-proof buildings. The
experiment was made at an expense OF
$50, 1000, and was attempted while the
Cooper Institute was being built, it be-
ing the intention of the founder to
make the building completely fire.

STOCKING FISH-PGNDS.
Practical Suggestions of Prof. Jordan, of
the Indiana University.
[From the Indianapolis Journal

From the indianapolis Journal
There are, in general, in the United
States, three sorts Of fish-ponds, each
Of which may briefly notice:
1. Ponds for Trout.-Where the water
is very cold and very pure there is no
kind of fish more attractive and per-
haps none more profitable than brook
trout. There are in this State, how
ever, very few ponds where the aristo-
cratic fish may be reared, so that [
need say here nothing further in regard
to it.
.. Ponds of Game Fish.-Tn any
clear pond or lake in this State
"gamey" or carrivorous fishes can be
reared.
OF these our native fishes are the
best, the white bass, the black bass,
the troppie, the yellow perch, the rock
bass and other species of suntish and
the different sorts of small catfish. The
latter are not very high game. The
writer has, however, a liking for them
as pond fishes, for they are good food,
hardy and prolific, and withal morally
certain not to waste the fisherman's
time, as they take the hook with unfail-
ing accuracy, and take it for "keeps. "
Such a fsh-pond is especially boys
pond, and the catfish is pre-eminentlv
a boys fish. To stock such a pond
there is nothing special to do but free
it, if possible, from gars, dogfsh and
piekerel, and then to put in as many
live fish as practicable of the species
desired, with minnows and suckers for
food. Catfish will thrive in almost any
pond which does not dry up in the sum-
mer, but the bass and suntish are more
particular.
B. Carp Ponds.-For most ponds
which may be made in this State, no
fish is so web suited as the European
carp. It bears the same relation to the
, native fishes that hog does to on
wild animals or the hen to our native
game birds It is not so handsome or so
delicate as the best of the native fishes.
There is no excitement in its capture,
but it furnishes food for a hungry
world. The carp much resembles the
buffalo fish in size and form; it has the
{ same thick head, large scales and tooth
less mouth. It's flesh is, however, much
finer in quality, although by no means
equal to that of white fish or brook
trout, The carp will thrive in almost
any water. 1t feeds on vegetable sub
stances, frog spittle, water weeds, bread
crumbs, bransmost anything that a
chicken or plgSWill eat. 1t will take
the hook sometimes, if imbedded in a
bread crumb, but so will a len under
similar circumstances. It's growth is
very rapid under favorable conditions,
and it is very profitable. 1t is said to
devour its own spawn when feed is
scarce, but, unlike carnivorous fishes,
it rarely eats it's own young. The ideal
carp pond is clear, warm, weedy, deep
in the middle, shallow along the edges
and free from other fish. A pond which
can be drained at will is convenient
where fish are raised for the markets,
as the large fish can be selected and
the smaller ones left. If the fish arc
caught with a seine many small ones

The Law Of Legitimacy.

To check increase of population many
of the minor states of Germany have
had laws upon their statute books for
bidding marriage until the contracting
parties We're long past youth. This re-
suited in the formation of unlawful
unions and the birth of many illegiti-
mste children. The couples lived to-
getor till the legal age and then were
married, but the children born out of
wodiocE were held to be Legitimate
ami could not inherit property. The
Ne York Court Of Appeals, recently,
however, decided that a couple born in
Hr'omhrr@, and who had illegitimate
children there, upon marrying in Penn
sV,}aaia legitimized their offspring.
Cao Of our inferior courts had held that
a. the law ii the State OF New York de-
cl@vea iliegitimata children shall not in
h>r.'. even though the parents are sub
ae4Ueutly married, therefore the elder
children Of this Wurtemburg couple
had go claims on the property of their
parents. As the marriage, however,
took place in Pennsylvania, where mar
riaga legitimizcs previous offspring, the
Court Of Appeals justly held that there
should be no property distinctions
between the children. - DemOTeSfS

Novels and Thnir Plots.

Admitting the general principle that
novel should have plot, and be prop
erly wound up st the conclusion, we do
not see why few novels in d genera
ton may not approach more closely the
actual life. in which all love affairs do
not result either in death or marriage.
IT is pretty obvious that Thackerav was
bored with the necessity Of construct
ing plot; he calmly shows his read
crs how he had meant TO hang Col. Al
lamont, and then let him oil; and he is
obviously Indifferent as to what be-
came Of them all" when his characters
have passed off the stage. AS to the
winding up of his stories, Thackerav
knotted the threads anyhow, introduc-
ing two concealed wills with the great
est assurance Cn "Philip" and @The
Newcombs"), and throwing in a biga-
my when convenient. Moliere used to
he accused of the same. Indifference.
These men knew life so well that the
rules of their art were sometimes irk-
some to them. Still, an art has its
rules; the public of 5000 years ago
probably blamed Homer for leaving the
"Iliad" at loose end with the burial of
Hector, the tanner of horses. A proper
conclusion Of novel is demanded by
readers and by the laws of the game,
No one would go on reading novels if
all the characters were to be left adrift,
as Mr.. James sometimes leaves them,
and as Thackeray obviously would have
liked to leave them. London Satatr-

the authorities at Moscow have been in
vested with power to arrest number of
persons who have been acting suspiciously
in that city, and to detain them until the
coronation of the car takes place. Much
ill-feeling exists in some of the regiments
of the army, owing to the fact that rewards
are being offered to the men to induce
them to denounce any of their comrades
who are known to be nihilists.

A gentleman from Utica in Louis

how to do so. A florist friend said he
would fix them. He cut a potato into

buds, and placed them in box with
cotton to support them. A letter from
the recipient acknowledged the remem-
Jr ace, and said that the buds had de-

is sufficient moisture in good-sized
potato to support a flower for two weeks
in a moaerately-cool temperature.
