The Years Yield of Cotton.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-The following was issued by the Department of Agriculture to daw: The December report of the Depart ment of Agriculture indicates a smaller yield of cotton than the returns of condition ir October. The October average was 94 against 6S in 1883, and 66 in the disastrous season of 1881. The returns of condition in October and of product in December have been unus- ually divergent this year. The first indicated a larger crop than last year; the latter pro duct slightly less, or about 98 per cent. The comparative decline is in the States west of Alabama. The comparison with last year is as follows: North Carolina 1. .O0, South Caro- lima 1.97, Georgia 1.01, Florida Los, Alaba- ma 1.05, Mississippi .94, Louisiana .99, Texas .59, Arkansas .56, Tennessee .01. Applying these percentages to our figures for the crop of 1883 they indicate an aggregate product of 5, 5,180, 900 bales. These figures are provision al and may be slightly modified by future re- turns, but it is certain that the rate of yield will be much below the average

AN AGED wIDow sw1NDLEn:
4 Young Man ElOpes with Her and s

Small Fortune
 THFIN, O., Dec. 30.-The details of an ex- traordinary elopement and $10,000 swindle have just been made public. The parties are rich widow of seventy-fve and man of thirty. Several years ago Abraham Cromwell died, leaving his wife fortune estimated at $100, GOO, nearly all of it in Seneca county farms. Early last summer a plausibly talking man, calling himself Buck ley, came to this place and did large busi- ness selling Bohemian oats at $8 bushel By some means he became acquainted with the aged widow, and in short time gained her complete confidence, so much so that she intrusted $10,000 to his keeping, and it has effectually disappeared. By some strange chance the woman's friends were not aware of the proceedings until her money was gone, the first intimation of the real condition of affairs being discovered only on the announcement of the marriage of the couple, who eloped to Monroe, Mich. They returned to this city, where the aged wife now is, but the whereabouts of Buckley are unknown It is learned that the old lady has made her will, leaving the bulk of her property to her youthful husband. The af- fair has produced a sensation, and threats of violence to Buckley are freely indulged in. The woman's friends will at once proceed to recover the property. It is said Buckley has 8 wife elsewhere, who understands the situa- tion and is partner of her husband in the matter

How Globes Are urade.


 Our library and school educational globes have, perhaps, been puzzle to many an in- quisitive mind, they being so light, so easily turned on their axis, and so smooth as to ap- pear more like natural exact productions than mechanical constructions. The material of globe is a thick, pulpy paper, like soft straw board and this is formed into two hemis- pheres from disks. A fiat disk is cut in gores or radical pieces, from center to circum- ference, half of the gores being removed and the others brought together, forming 8 hem ispherical cup. These disks are gored under cutting press the dies of which are so exact that the gores come together at their edges and make perfect hemisphere. The forma- tion is also done by 8 press with Q hemis- phericaI mould and die, the edges of the gores being covered with glue. Two of these hemispheres are then united with glue and mounted on wire, the ends of which are the two axes of the finished globe. All this work is done while the paper is in 8 moist state After drying, the rough paper globe is rasped down to surface by course sand paper, followed by finer paper, and then re- ceives a coat of paint or enamel that will take clean smooth finish. The instructive portion is map of the world printed in twelve sections, each lozenge shape, the points extending from pole to pole, exactly the same as though the peel of an orange was cut from stem to bud in twelve equal divisions These maps are obtained in Scot land, generally, although there are two or three establishments elsewhere which pro duce them The paper of these maps is very thin but tenacious, and IS held to them by glue. The operator, generally a woman, begins at one pole, pasting with the left hand and laying the sheet with the right, working along one edge of the north pole, coaxing the edge of the paper over the curva- ture of the globe with an ivory spatula, and working down the entire paper to an abso- Iutely smooth surface. As there are nos laps to these lozenge sections the edges must meet. or else there would be mixeu up mess especially among the islands of some of the great archipelagoes and the arbitrary polit1- cal borders of the nations. This is probably the most exact work in globe making, and yet it appears to be easy, because the opera tor is so expert in coaxing down the fuilness and in expanding scanty portions, all the time keeping absolute relation and perfect joining with the other sections and to their edges. The metallic work-the equators, meridians and stands-is finished by machln- ery. A coat of transparent yarnish over the paper surface completes the work, and thus a globe is built
