How Watch Cases are Made.

A plate Of SOLID GOLD IA 2-10 karats
fine is soldered on each side of plate of
hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this plate the various
parts ofthe cases-backs, centsrs, bezels, etc.
are cut and shaped by dies and formers.
The gold is thick enough to admit of all
kinds of chasing, engraving, and engine
turning. The composition metal gives it
needed strength, stiffness and solidity, while
the written guarantee of the manufacturers
Uarranti,tg each case to wear t,Uersty years
proves that it contains all the gold that
can possibly be needed. This guarantee
is given from actual results, as mary of
these cases have been worn perfectly smooth
by years of use without wearing through

A MODEL SCHOOL.-In recent letter
Joaquin Miller thus decribes a school for
colored children in the vicinity Of Wash
ington: I have lived at Oxford, at Cam
bridge, loafed about Heidelberg, and had
something to say to the students at
Athens, Alexandra and even Jerusalem,
but such exact discipline, yet homelike
behavior [ have found nowhere at all. [
call attention to the facts, which | think
not generally known, that1 the educated
negro does not mouth his words, or
abbreviate them, or to speak in any other
way than as an educated white man.
Turn your back and you would not be
able TO detect the white from the black
speaker These students are making the
very most Of their opportunities And
this, I think, is all there is of life, all
that God or the country asks of any hu-
man being. How far they have advanc-
ed or how fast they have advanced is not
so easy to define positively. / hear it
said that up to certain point the negro
is quicker and more apt than the white
student. I hear it said further that he is
not capable of attaining to so great an
eminence. These, however, are ques-
tions to be left to the future for Judgment
I can only congratulate those who found
ed this school. They and those in charge
of it ought to be thankful for the won
derful fruits of it. This is the way out
of Jail. Fill this academy and you will
empty yonder prison.

written. For the rest, the number is of
great variety. A paper by Mrs Louise
Chandler Moulton on the life and works
of Arthur O'Shaughnessy, the Irish poet,
who left behind him some admirable
verse, has his portrait well engraved. An
illustrated paper on "The Ancient Water
Supply of Constantinople" is readable,

a paper on "White Elephants" by Frank
Vincent Jr. J. Parker Norris, of Phila-
delphia. the well-known Shakespearean

The New York Evening Post makes
the astonishing statement that "the
chief reason for Blaine's nomination was
that be was the favorite of large major
ity of the convention" If the Evening
Post had stated that this Large majority"
consisted of delegates elected from the
Republican congressional districts and
from Republican States, while the mi
nority against consisted of delegates from
Democratic districts and States, it would
have still further vindicated its reputa-
ton for general adhesion to facts when
stating facts, whatever may be said of its
opions. Blaine was the actual first
choice of a majority of the delegates in
the convention, as he was the first choice
of a majority of the Republicans of the
country outside of the convention. What,
then, would satisfy such newspaper
organ of independent opinion as the
Evening Post? Would it have the 'large
majority yield to the dictation of the
small minority of the Republicans both in
and out OF the convention? So absurd a
proposition, if accepted, would end party
organization, the rule ofthe majority and
the reign of sovereign common sense
Really when the world at large differs
from one man, the world at large, which is
the large majority, will have its way. not
withstanding the dissent and protest of the
small minority. Chicago Journal.

ROMANTIC CHARACTER OF ARA
BIANS.

The romantic character of the Arab
race is too we'll known to need more than
a passing allusion. The power of Mu-
hammad lay in great measure in the
charm of his poetry; and the Anacreon-
tic bards of Arabia were famous among
their fellows long before his time. The
imagination is sxcited by the wild land
scape of the desert in a manner which
the dweller in cultivated lands can little
appreciate. The fancy of the Arab
peoples the wilderness with ghostly and
demoniac forms; ard the silence which
oppresses the mind in such vast solitudes
where the cry of the eagle or the bark of
the jackal is re-echoed by the naked crags
wandered alone in such region. Thus
the ghoul, the afreet, the ghostly wild
goat, under which form the demon ap-
pears to the hunter, are creations of the
Imagination ever present to the Arab
mind. The tribes who love to tell the
wondrous stories OF Zir and Jandabah,
the fables of Lehman, and the songs of
Antar are men Of character very different
from the hopeless and timid peasants of
the Delta. The Koran appears to their
imagination in degree of which the
fellahin are incapable; and its legends,
its fine poetic images, its oft>repeated
descriptions of paradise and of hell, its
claim to be "reading made plain in the
Arab tongue" to unlettered men by an
unlettered prophet, appeal to the Bedawi
of to-day, just az they appealed to his
ancestors twelve centuries ago.-Black-
moods Magazine.

excellent points, and includes a number
of seasonable and weighty articles. The
place of honor is given to a paper on
Cardinal Newman by Richard Ell. Hut
ton. Prof. Edward III. Freeman is rep
resented by fascinating article entitled
"Some Neglected Points of History" in
which this brilliant historian is seen at
his best. Matthew Arnold's American
lecture on Emerson" is reprinted as an
essay. The conclusion of the poet Swim
burne's powerful criticism of "Words-
worth and Byron" is given, and the
readers of the article will hardly fail 10
recognize that Syinburne has as much
genius as a prose writer as in the domain
of verse, Fashionable Philosophy" a
reprint from Blackwood's, is racy and
satirical, and the story from the pen of

Other articles of interest are "The Mad

rode through the desert from Berber to
