Boston has an apple mission which
distributes from 1000 to 5000 bushels
of apples among the poor every year
Comparison with this scheme ought to

reflection.
A famous aeronaut says no balloon
has ever gone ever second sunset
The moment the sun goes down the
gas condenses and you get through the
night better than the day. But the
next day, in the presence of the sun,
the gas expands and you mount to
great elevations, but every mount the
balloon makes cripples its power, and
if is only question of hours, if not
minutes, how long you can keep up.
If an aeronaut could have forty-eight
hours of night he could'travel great
distance. The highest rate of speed
he had ever attained, even with a
strong wind blowing, was eighty miles
an hour.
The bayaderes of India, who pos
sess the most perfect figures of any
women of any country on earth, have
a much more healthful and charming
device than any Europeans. Their
corsets are formed out of the bark of
the Madagascar tree, on principle
which permits them every freedom of
movement in breathing and in any
form of exercise. These are wonder
full productions of ingenuity. The
color resembles the skin to a remarka-
bic degree. and the material is SO fine
that the most delicate touch will hard
ly distinguish it from human flesh.
Once made, these corsets are seldom
removed, the bayaderes even sleeping
ing in them. They thus preserve as
tonishingly beautiful figures to an adj
vanced age, without pain or discomfort
to themselves, while we who boast
ourselves intellectual and civilized,
torture without identifying ourselves.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.

Mt ernationaI Freight Depot and Four
cars Burned
This morning, about 2:15, fire was
discovered in the International depot.
The flames quickly gained Roadway,
and. before the firemen could bring
their engines into play, were beyond
control. The building, a one-story
wooden structure, was totally con-
sumed with its contents, the value of
which cannot be stated at this hour.
It is certain, however, the
depot was filled with merchandise.
AZ freight train standing on the track
alongside, also caught. Two cars were
entirely destroyed, and two others
nearly SO. They were all heavily load
ed with merchandise. 1t was reported
among the crowd that there were
horses on board Zone, but this was
hardly so as none were stock cars.
