THE NEW TIME.

.@E THEfNEW TIME.
At the railroad convention held in
Chicago on the 1ltl of October it seems
a new standard of time was adopted. ;.
The work Of getting the consent Of the
roads to the change has been going on
until nearly all have adopted it. The
1lli .ois Central seems to lie the only
one leading into Chicago which has re-.
fused to make the change. Tie Penn
sylvan,a road made the change on Sun
day last. Tie Milwaukee and the
Northwestern roads have decided to
make the change on next Sunday. the
25th. Al our road, the st. Paul &
Omaha, is a part OF the Northwestern
system, the change will be made here
also.
The time adopted is nineteenth me.
ridian, or central time, wl,icl, is nine
minutes slower tl.am Chicago time %
Since the above was typed. we notice
that the change Was nearly general
over the whole country on Sunday last.
A few roads wrre not prepared and did
not make. the change. then. The Mil.
waukee and the Northwestern roads
will make the change next Sunday.
The change at leading points in this
State will beas f"ll"ws:
At st. Paul the new time will be l2
minutes and 8 seconds faster than tie
former local time. At Minneapolis. la
minutes faster. At Mankato, Is min
uteS and 48 seconds faster.
At Burlington, Iowa. the time will
he 4 minutes and "a seconhs faster. At
Cedar Rapids. 6 minutes and SO seconds
faster.

THE B., C. r. l. N. EXTENSION.
The Currie Minl,esOti;.n of last week
says:
The Burlington. Cedar Rapids and
Northern railroad Surveyors PASSED
through, here sunday on their return
from running the: lln- n"r,h. They
told us they went from Tracy north to-
the nOrt:, lihe'Of Lyon c"unty, which
is some six miles b+yend the lied wood
river, ana directly west 1T kedwmd
Falls. This would indicate as W. pre-
dicted last week that tile Minneapolis
aud st. Louis bramcl, would form II
junction with the line at that lnnint aud
then both go northwest and tOl N a
junction with the Fargo Southern.
Mr.. II: Paul: Il correspondent If thr

that the road wOnlh re built through,

us they will take this route rs it will IT.

bring ns oar coal for the winter Of
1854 and 1855.

1t is now Il fixed fact that the Fargo
Southern Railroad company will TX.
tend their line to Flandredu next sea

to Sipnx +; lls. in that it will connect
the Two leading commercial CRITTERS ut

desirable and profit able market for our
jasper granite, aud giving the Red
river valley u new outlet for its wheat
which will benefit Sioux Falls rs much
as it will Fargo. rs in addition I"
creating y market for Onr stone it will
also give rs another outlet for Sioux
Falls -four.
Probably it will also z" in that dirpc'
ton, but we will wager Il years sub
scription that the connection will be
made with Wortl,ingtom before it is
with Sioux Falls. Farg" wants. first

us to which the line might b. extended
1t seems now sue that it will be built

ri Southern will strike it. ....

How Watch Cases are Made.

This process of manufacture was invented
by James Boss, who started in business in
1854, and the methods and tools used in
making these watch cases are covered by
patents. This is the only match case made
under this process For many years the in
PRODUCTION Of these goods was slow, owing
topopular prejudice against "plated" goods,
but gradually the public learned that the
James Boss Gold Watch Case was not .
cheap gold-woshed or electro,plated article,
but was made Of genuine gold plates Of
standard quality and thickness. Conscientious
adherence to the determination to make
the best watch case ever put on the market,
and the adoption of every Improvement
suggested, has made the James Boss Gold
Watch Case the STANDARD. ,,.or y x.,.
In this watch case the parts & .
most subject to wear-the Jov, croun, hinges,
thunsb-catches, etc., are made of SOLID GOLD.

THE ROUTE.

IL. Paul, one of the surveying corps
Of the Burlington road. made us several
pleasant calls last week on the return
of the party from up north. Mr.. Paul
is corresponding with the Cedar Rap
ids Gazette aid is writing s"mr very
good letters descriptive of the country
Ina recent letter to that paper lie says
Of the route:
From our last camp east Of Currie
until we reached Tracy. thirteen Milts
north, we found II difficult country t"
ran through, it being hilly with deep
ravimes aud large sloughs. After
reacIi,.g Tracy it was thought best by
our locating engineer, Mr.. A. 7. LAM
bourn, to make u new line running int"
Tracy, u little west of the one previous.
ly made. We returned six miles south
and run the lin making more direct.
shorter and better grade, crossing the
WinOna & st. Peter Railway ut the
east edge o. the town. We have made
more angles, crossed deeper ravimes,
and made heavier grades from the Des-
MOi:es river tO Tracy than any other
part Of the ioute. From what I can
learn we have passed the heavy part Of
our work. and will have pretty clear
sailing to Guose Lake. twenty-three
miles north. which is onr destination.

STAIR BOARD OF CHARITIES

6JAjE BOARD OF CHARITIES.
Rev. II IL. Hart, Secretary If the
state Board Of Chariti-s, spent Satur-
day and Sunday in Worthinpton. In a
brief in: ervipw we gathered many facts
of Interest concerning the work il,
which he is engaged, and W. are more
than ever convinced of the importance
Of the board and its work. The great
Outrages which have been committed
especially in connection with insane
asylnms sllculd arouse the public to
demand a rigid investigation and Il
change in thu ,nodns operandi OF incar
cerating persons in insane asylums.
The Silkman case in New York is still
fresh in the public mind and the de-
mand of the N. Y. Herald that the
courts should have charge of 50 grave a
matter should be needed.
Mr.. Hart's report recently published
is full of Instructive matter and We
hope, rs we said ut the time of lis ap-
pOintment, that he will Ike able to stand
up to the work without fear ar favor
and bear whatever impartial reports
may draw upon him.

Embroidery on linen ~toweling or sheeting
has been thy revived. 1t was all art
much practiced in the last century and in
the early pnrt of the present century; ami
our great grandmothers embroidered bed cur
tains, bed-spreads, and window-hangings of
linen, as well as table-spreads and side-pock-
cts, and even dresses. The material can be
obtained of any width from half a yard to one
or TWO wards, as the article TO be embroidered
requires, and the unbleached linen has the
preference. 1t should be shrunk before it is
embroidered, and then it can be washed at any
time, and it will also remove all the stiffness of
the natural fiber and make it soft and pliable
to the needle, and if it is to be decorated
with drawn-work, the threads can be pulled
out more readily after this shrinking process.
Put the linen into hot suds, made out of
white, hard soap, and let it lie in the water
for all hour, keeping it hot, but not boiling.
Rub it with the hands, or souse it up and
down in the suds, to take out all the gum.
and then turn off the suds, and pour over it
lukewarm water, and place over the fire to
become hot, but not to boil. Take it from
the fire, and when cool enough rub it again,
and rinse in two coo waters, and wiring and
shake it thoroughly, and hang it in the sun
until nearly dry. Then iron perfectly
smooth, and your linen is ready for any ar
ticle you may like to embroider, from cur
tains to baby's erib-cover, table scarf or doy-
lies.

Fires and
American Aericulturist

q hEilCuiAuTiet
Every house should have in the principal,
or living room, at least, a fireplace, if only
for use in summer, or in the warm months.
There is rarely a month IN which there is
not a long aud cold storm, or, if it is not
cold, there is an all-pervading ~dampness,
which requires a fire to remove it. In tine
Northern States the present month and the
next are among the most enjoyable. as to
weather, of all the twelve; yet cold storms
OF several days duration are frequent, and if
there are not such storms, warm, genial days
are followed by chilly nights, bringing a
change so great that only the most robust
can endure it, and the foundation OF serious
illness is often laid at this time. At this season
a fire, especially at night, is often needed for
both comfort and health, and no house
should be without IA provision for it. While
a fire in astove is vastly better than none at
all, by all means, where possible, nave it in
an open fireplace. Aside from its social
effect, the air of eheerfulness which a fire on
the hearth brings with it. such a fire also
brings ventilation, a change of air, a removal
OF dampness and stagnation, such as q close
stove does not afford. In our climate we
rarely nave a month, even in summer, in
which a fire is not al INES needed. Were
the provisions for making it more general,
we should hear much less of malaria. ?"
Malaria means bad air; good air comes with
an open fire, as well as brightness and cheer

Some Fancy WAN Pockets.

OieNeionu HERALD.
OF course these pockets are for ornamental
ton more than use, yet you can show off
pretty cards from them very nicely. For
one kind take a fiat fan, say six inches across
the widest part with straight stick handle,
market value perhaps 5 cents. Tie around
the handle about the middle, in a pretty
bow any shade OF ribbon you may wish,
leaving short ends (one-fourth OF a yard of
No. Z or 8 will do). Pin by this ribbon to the
wall, in a blind way, of course, with fan part
down. Across the lower half put a
pocket of silk, shade to harmonic
with BOW. This pocket may be gath
cred on an elastic and drawn across
the fan, or it may be fitted plain over
pasteboard the same shape as the fan, except
a trihe wider, then neatly finished at the
edge with a small fancy cord. In case it is a
gathered pocket it must be drawn in shape,
and finished in the same manner as the plain
one. Some persons use lace instead of cord.
The plain ones can be decorated as preferred.
Neither of these pockets should be more than
half the depth of the fan.
Another pocket is made from the common
fans that open and shut. Open one out,
fasten across it a small stick or bit of whale
bone to keepiti ia place; take another ian, same
size, open and fasten to the first, only lower,
so that they shall not be the same height,
finish with bow of ribbon, one on either
side and at the point, put a ribbon from side
to side, leaving it long enough TO hang it up
with. This pocket is much larger of course
than the other two mentioned.

Brief Mention.

Albert L. Summers, a Decatur attorney, has
been arrested, charged with falsifying a court
summons. He gave bail for 81 900 for his ap-
pearance for trial.
Miss Katie selby, aged seventeen years,
was arrested at the Union Depot,
Decatur, on Saturday evening, at
tired in a bows suit of clothes. She says
her home is in New York. She went TO Clinton
from indianapolis, where she put on the boys
suit. She says she eonldn't get work in woman's
clothes. and hoped to earn a livelihood In dis
guise.
On Sunday, at Decatur, 175 of the Harrison
converts were publicly received as members at
the First Methodist Church and eighty at
Stapp's Chapel. Tie reception of the proba-
tloners was quite impressive. Rev. Mr.. Dim
init aud Rev. Mr.. Musgrove report over $40
probationers on the church books who have re-
manned faithful, aud have been
as suitable members.
Tolono ia threatened with an accession of
wealth. Not long ago Mr.. Henry Smith, u lum-
herman. bored for water back OF his house in the
southeastern part of the village. The drill went
down $50 feet. and then n Sizing was heard,
and a volume of gas struck the persons near.
The whole neighborhood, OF course, turned out
at once. A long metal tube was sunk, and the
top of the well covered to prevent the gas from
escaping through any but the proposed orl1ee.
Several other wells were subsequently dug, and
gas ascends from two of them, No attempt has
yet been made TO bore for oil.
