A SIMPLE DIsINFECTANT.- One
pound of green copperas, costing sey-
en- cents, dissolved in one quart of
water, and poured down a water
closet, will effectually concentrate and
destroy the foulest smells. On board
ships and steamboats,, about hotels
aud other public places, there is moth
ing 80 nice to purify the air. Simple
green cOpperas, dissolved in anything
under the bed, will render an hos
pital, or other places for the sick, free
from unpleasant smells. In fish mar
kets, slaughter houses, sinks and
wherever there are offensive gases,
dissolve copperas and sprinkle it
about, and in a few days the smell
will pass away. If a cat, rat or mouse
dies about the house, and sends fourth
an offensive gas. place some dissolved
copperas in an open vessel near the
place where the nuisance is, and it
will purify the atmosphere. Then,
keep all clean.

Ingenuity of a Spider

L lately saw awonderful sample of
ingenuity disphyed by spider. One
of my friends u,ed to shelter a num-
Der of garden piders under a large
yeranda, and was much interested in
watching their habits. One day a
violent storm arse, and the wind beat
so furiously thrugh the garden that
even though prtected by the yeran.
da. the spiders suffered terribly. In
one case one or two of the guy ropes
were broken, so that the web tapped
about like loose sail in a storm.
The spidg did not attempt to make
new guy sopes, but had recourse to a
remanhUe expedient. 1t lowered
itself 10 the ground by a thread,
craWed along the ground to a spot
When were lying some fragments of
wooden fence that had been blown
down, the wood being quite decayed.
On one of these fragments it attached
its line, reascended, and hauled the
piece of wood after it to the height of
nearly five feet, suspending it by a
strong line to its web. The effect was
wonderful ; for the weight of the wood
was sufficient to keep the net tolera-
bly, tight, while it was light enough
to yield to the wind, and so pre-
ventfurther breakages. The wooden
weight was just two inches and a half
in length and about the diameter of a
goose quill. On the following day a
servant struck her head against it
and knocked it down; in a few hours
the spider had found and replaced it.,
thus proving that the occurrence was
not accidental. After the stormy
weather had ceased, the spider mend.
ed the web, cut the rope, and let the
wooden weight fall to the ground

Digging Through a Mountain.

WlLhSBARRE, July 19.-The great
VasOurg tunnel of the Lehigh Val.
ley Railroad, near Tunk hammock, is
in most respects completed. The
tunnel Y S,Se5 feetApng, and pierces
mouptain 365 feet high, and will
savefiyR and half miles in distance.
Foryeeks it has been known, not
onlypy measurments but by sound
ing, mat the headings were rapidly
app~aehlng one another. When
then was 800 feet of intervening rock
the lapping of hammers could be
distinctly heard. On Saturday but
a TIM barrier of rock interposed it.
sselfand every effort was made to
driYthe hole through on that day,
but was not until o'clock on Sun.
daynornlng that a charge of high
xs5s.I 4, NJ. 1 Is IS crushed through the rock
and s6Sasd a passageway under
meath the mountain. The first man
to crawl Trough was contractor D.
G, Hickey. The work was begun in
June 1883, The two headings COM
ing through he mountain from OPP
posite directions met with such re.
markable precision that the varia-
tion is only -hree- -hundredths of an
inch, practically no variation at all.
Not an accidert has occurred during
the construction of the tunnel, The
tunnel is q BET high and % feet
wide and for a considerable portion
of the distance S arched with mason
ry. The number of men employed
was about $50. 1t is Impossible to
tell how soon trains will be run
through, but thre is yet considerable
work.to do in finishing the heading
hole and in completing the masonry.

The Brooklyn Bridge.

After about fourteen years hard
labor the great suspension bridge be-
tween New York and Brooklyn has
been completed, and thus two large
cities connected in a manner which
was never dreamed of in Revolution
ary times. 1t is indeed the crowning
work Of the century, and can be clas-
sedhmong the wonders of this coun-
try. The suspension bridges at Mag
ara Falls and over the Ohio river at
Cincinnati, are merely foot bridges
in comparison with it. Its dimen-
siOns, history and cost are familiar to
all readers of the daily papers and do
not need to be repeated here but we
do wish to speak of PERUNA, the
greatest discovery of this country. 1t
is a medicine discovered by DR.. S. b.
Hartman, of Pittsburgh, and pre-
scribed by him in thousands of cases
during thirty years of continuous
practice. Ask your druggist for the
pamphlet entitled the "Iils of Life"
which gives full and complete diiec.

The Philadelphia Times, in order
to draw public attention from the
scathing which it recently received
at the hands Of the Press. is now en-
gagged in electing Cleveland and Hen
dricks. The two papers having got
into wrangle about their circulation
the Press proposed to settle the mat
ter on wager that its daily circula-
tion exceeded that of the Times by
10000 to $4,000, whereupon the Times
precipitately fed from the contro-
versy. The Times is nothing if not
unlucky. Protesting to be indepen-
dent, it followed Greeley, Tilden and
Hancock to defeat and now starts out
over the same route under the Cleve-
land banner.

The Cholera ScOurging Europe.

France is being ravaged by the
cholera and inhabitants are dying by
scores. The infection, so far has been
confined to MarseiIles and Toulon.
Secretary Frelinghuysen has instruct
ed by cable the consular officers at
London, Liverpool, MarselIes, Hayre
Bordeaux. and Bremen to appoint
competent physicians to inspect all
vessels and passengers departing for
the United States from the ports men,
toned. The consular officers referred
to are instructed to refuse clean bills
of health in all cases except upon the
recommendation Of the sanitary in
spector that such bills be given. The
consuls are instructed to report by
cable any case of infectious or conta-
glous disease known to exist on board
CT a vessel at the time of her depar-
ture for the United States. This
course is adopted in order that the
health officers in our ports may have
timely warning of approaching dam
ger, and be prepared to take such
measures as shall prevent the scourge
from gaining foothold in this coun-
try.

The Washington Monument.
From the Washington STAR.

AiOii INC washington Star.
The Washington Monument has
now reached a height of 47O feet. and
the customary shift is being made to
continue the structure 20 feet higher,
at which point another and last
change will be made, as only five
courses will then remain to raise the
structure to height of 500 feet.
From this point the pyramidal roof,
% feet, will begin, All the stones
which have thus far been laid have a
smooth finish on the inside, but the
stones OF the next course will iut a
little on the inside, and the next ones
little further, and so on, these cor
oels forming the support for the in
terror arch, which will be the base
for the pyramidal roof. 1t is expect
ed that the monument will reach a
height OF 500 feet in less than two
months time. Steps will then be
taken to commence the work upon
the roof, and while that work itself
will not take more than three weeks,
the preparation for it will be delicate
and of a different character from any
heretofore made that it will be some
time before the laying of stone is be-
gun. By the 1st of November it is
confidently expected that the struct-
ure will be under cover and practical
Iy completed. There will be some
finishing touches to be made, per-
haps, but these can wait till next
year, if necessary.

bUtUUtupOttS OOUfUut'
The Democratic party demands re-
form, and the people naturally want
to know what that party proposes to
reform, What has the Republican
party done that must be undone or
reformed?
l. The first thing the Republican
party did was to wipe out Demo
cratic Rebellion and restore the Un-
ion. Does the Democratic party
want to reform" that?
2. The Republican party gave free
dom to all the slaves held in bondage
by the Democrats. Does the Demo.
cratic party want reform badly
enough to put them back into inyol-
untary servitude?
3. The Republican party gave the
right of franchise to the enewiy-eman-
cipated slaves. Does the party OF
',reform" want to deprive the color
ed race0f tiat right
4. The Republican party took
charge of public affairs when, under
Democratic management, the Gov
ernment was obIidged to pay II per-
cent interest, while to-day it can Dor,
row thousand millions at 3 percent
Is there anything here that requirts
"reform" at the hands of the Demo
cratic party
5. The Republican party came irto
power when the value of good old
Democratic "money" was worth all
the way from par to zero, and was
most valuable in the hands of those
who did not know now worthless it
was, Does the Democratic party
wish to reform" Republican bank
ing methods and go back to The old
way?
6. The Republican party has made
gold, silver, and paper of equal val
ue from one end of the country to the
other. Does the Democratic party
call for "ref0rm," and desire to go
back to the good old Democratic
wildcat system?
7, The Republican party, by wise
application of the tariff, rendered it
possible to pay hundreds of miIliors
in the shape of pensions to the sol
diers of the Union and their widows
anl orphans. Would the Democrat
ic party "reform" this ?
s. The Republican party has made
it point to protect American labor
ing-men against all the outside world.
Will the Democratic party "reform"
this idea if it should get chance ?
8. The Republican party has FOSTER
ed and developed all the industrial
interests of the country, and has the
satisfaction of seeing every manufac-
tured article in the country sell cheap
er than ever before. Does the Demo-
cratic party think reform" is need
ed here ?
10. The Republican party has paid
thousand millions of Democratic
debt, and is still disposing of that
legacy of Democratic treason and re
bellion at the rate of one hundred
millions year. Does the party of
''reform" desire discontinuance
IL. The Republican party has
steadfastly refused to recognize the
claims ofany but Union soldiers, and
pledged meyer to consent to the paw
ment OF one cent to any one who
fought to destroy the Union. Will
the Democratic party hasten to "re-
form" this policy?
II. The Republican party has ever
taught that treason is Odious, and
that love of country is the supreme
virtue of American citizenship. Will
the Democratic party reverse the or.
der here and introduce "reform" :?
If reform" is so badly needed let
the items be pointed out and the fight
made,in open field. The Republican
party invites it.

Judge Stowe has been ordering the
arrest of jurors who fail to respond
when their names are called in the
Pittsburg courts. Seven were arrest.
ed on Monday, one of whom was J.
j. Vandergrift, the wealthy oil man.
One of the greatest evils connected
with the present jury system is the
unwillingness of leading citizens to
serve as jurors and the ease with
which they secure release and excuse
from service. Generally it happens
that those who are best qualified to
sit in the box are the ones who shun
it.
