Petersburg as a memorial of the late
Gar, and which is to stand upon the
spot where the Car fell, will be an old
Muscovite structure of the seventeenth
century style. 1t will have six cupolas,
resting on columns of porphyry given
by the present Gar. The entrance
will be from the opposite side of the
canal, through detached belfry and
over bridge.
Mules are used instead of horses in
the mines and tunnels in the West.
Mr. Adolph Sutro describes those in his
famous tunnel as the miners pets, and
are cared for with as much tenderness
as children. The animals become so
accustomed to darkness that they can
not see on emerging into sunlight, and,
to obviate this difficulty, the men in the
Sutro tunnel are in the habit of cover
ing the right eye of the mule while in
darkness and the left eye when in the
light, so that the animal will always
have the full use of at least one optic.
A family living near De Soto, Ill.,,
have a coon, three years old, which
was caught when still blind. An old
cat at once took charge OF and cared
for it as if it were one of its own little
ones. Now the coon takes care of it.
self, although the cat continues to feed
it with mouse and rat dainties. The
children in the house have taught
the coon any number of little tricks,
such as begging for biscuit, putting
its paws about ones neck. Her couch
at night is on the dining-room lounge,
and She shares that with the dog, who
allows none of his kind to approach or
annoy her, and is almost as fond OF Der
as the cat.
Tom Thumbs little widow is in Gin
cinnati. She has been interviewed, and
said II was so lonely at home lcorld
not remain there. The General and l
lived together twenty years, and in
that time were constantly together.
He never left me except for few min
utes at a time. With us it was not like
it is with most married people, where
they are often separated for long peri
DDS, and thus become in measure ac-
customed to being alone, | could not
be alone, and, as | feel more at home
when | am before the public, | thought
it would be better for me to appear in
public again. Some people think it is
strange that appear again, and es-
pecially upon the stage, but they do
not understand how it is with one who
has been before the public as long rs |
have. To remain at home after sIch
an active life, and especially without
the General, was too much for me."

Taking Care Of Nice Dresses,

There is an old proverb that says a
lady is always to be known by her boots
and gloves. Quite as crucial test is
the faculty of taking good care OF her
costumes, and one that quite as dis
tinctly marks the well-bred lady, Any
one can buy an elegant wardrobe If
they have money enough, but to take
the requisite care to keep it fresh and
dainty requires something more than
check-book. OF keeping nice dresses,
lady writes:
Each dress should have its own wrap
or cover to keep il from chatting aid
fading. Take fine, firm cotton cloth,
something over yard wide, cut it into
squares, then hem and wash the
squares. They should be fine, take no
room and weigh little firm, to keep
away from dust; hemmed, that you
NAV keep the same side next the silk,
and washed, to do away with the
bleaching chemicals, which are liable
to change the color Of the silk. Fold
the bottom OF the train back and forth
in about eighteen or twenty three-lnch
folds, 50 as to tit the box YOU have for
it. The bottom now being all together,
YOU will cover it with a small cloth or
towel, to keep the dusty train from
rubbing against the cleaner parts OF
the robe roll the whole dress loosely
to the size and shape of the box, lay it
upon the white cloth, and fold the cor
ners Of the same over the top of the
package and place it in the box. Now
loosen the roll and adjust it to its space,
SO as to favor any delicate or easily
crushed portion of the dress-as Medi-
| CT collars, flower garniture, embroidery,
etc., relieving crowded places, and dis
tributing the thick to the thin spots.
When you come to use the robe shake
it out, and you will find it in good con-
dition. The fold Of dress or shawl
will often work up between the trays
of boxes, and by motion of cars, wag-
ons, etc, get chafed into holes; to
| avoid this pin the cloth over so 1t can
not jut over the box. To pack laces,
fold them in blue tissue paper or soft
linen, because white paper contains
bleaching acids and discolors and de-
GAYS the ribbon or lace. The same is
true of white shoes and gloves, and es-
pecially silver ornaments. The latter,
though worn every evening, retain
their purity and brilIiancy for months
if kept closely in blue tissue paper.
Shoes and slippers should never be
folded together without a cloth or pa
per between them, as the sole OF one
soils the upper OF the other. Put one
in the cloth, turn it over, then add the
! other.

Didn't Hit Him.

A tough old debtor in town across
the Hudson entered a grocery the other
morning and stood for a long time look
Ing at an exhibition ofplug tobacco. The
grocer felt certain that the old man
wanted credit, and he determined to
head him Of He therefore observed:
Il have to sell that tobacco for cash

"You do, ehP'
"Yes, sir. Tobacco is cash on the

"Cash-all cash. Soap, mOlasses, po-
tatoes, candles, kerosene. butter, flour,
rice, hams, starch--all are spot cash"
The old man stood and looked over
the stock for five minutes, and then
heaved long sigh, and replied:

BradlaugIl Gives Up.

LONDON, May 5.-If, in the House of Com
mons yesterday, the motion for the previous
question pending the proposition of North
cote that Bradlaugh be not allowed to take
the oath had been carried, the effect would
have been to prevent the putting of North
cote's motion, and the ultimate result would
have been that in the absence of any instruc-
tions from the House such as the Speaker
sought, he (the Speaker) would have been
compelled to permit Bradlaugh to take the
oath, as he requested at the opening of the
session. The successful operation of the
previous question was the chief hope of the
supporters of Bradlaugh. Bradlaugh an-
nounces that in view of yesterdays pro-
ceedings, he has decided to visit his constitu-
ents and formally resign.

who prophesied within a few thousand
of the correct figures on crop matters last
year, makes the following representations
regarding the coming report of the United

"The public are looking forward with
great interest to the coming report of the
United States, which will probably be issued
May 10. Many are expecting a vast improve
ment in the May report over that of April.

State departments, and the latest
information from Kentucky, Ohio,
Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri,
and Kansas. l look to see the forthcoming
report but slightly, il any, improved over
that of April, and should not be at all sur
prised to see 1t somewhat under the April re-
port. The government in the April report,
places the condition of Kentucky at so,
Ohio 70, Michigan SO, Indiana rs, Illinois so,
Missouri 83, Kansas rs. The various State
department., of agriculture, in their late re-
ports in which they make May estimates,
place Kentucky at 60, Ohio 55, Michigan So,
Indiana 20, Illinois 10, Missouri 70, Kansas
TO- These eight large winter-wheat States
show decrease of per cent between the
governments April report and the States
May report. From these facts it hardly
looks possible for the government to show
much, ifany, improvement in the forthcom-
ing report"

VIENNA, May 5.-Little progress seems to
have been made toward adjusting the griev-
ances which caused the bakers assistants
here to go on strike. Last night thou
sand of the strikers engaged in riot at the
assembly rooms. The furniture was de-
stroyed and windows broken. The rioters
then threw up barricade in the street to
enable them to resist the police, who had
been summoned to quell the disturbance,
and who had difficult time in subduing the
infuriated mob. simultaneously with this
outbreak demonstration was made in an
who attacked the building occupied by the
bakers association, the doors and windows
of which they broke. Both parties of rioters
were finally dispersed.

weeks. After my return l shall remain in
the city four weeks and shall then return to

desire to recognize the worth and ability of
my associates. The advancement of these
gentlemen will tend to bring out all that is
