DYNAMITE IN PARIS.
The Internal Machine of Which England Is
Afraid Made in France.

Paris Letter New York Commercial Advertiser.
1t suits the ends of certain party in England
to attribute dynamite to America, but no one
can be a week in Paris without discovering that
the headquarters of the Inyincibes is in this
city How absurd it would be to use as a base
of operations a country ten days journey dis
tant from the scene of action when perfectly
secure position like this city can be had nearer
at hand and where if detectives are sharper,
the inevitable interviewer is less frequent and
the amateur detectives Of the press are nowhere
at ALL
The day rendezvous of the Irish revolutionists
here is cafe in the Rue Royal, under the
shadow of the Madeleine; and no attempt at con-
ceament is made, for an inscription over the
door announces that it is an Irish and American
bar. Here the consDirators meet and drink
more OF less good and bad Irish and American
whisky. but it is not here that the real work of
revolution is done.
The number of Irish and Irish-Americans en-
gagged actively in revolutionary schemes
in Paris is large-there are about a
hundred-and it is simply stupid for
the English detectives, who are in goodly num-
bers here also, to affect not to know what is
going on. The TACT Is that the dongs of the
conspirators are we'll known. They are even
sometimes published in the Morning News, but
the present condition of the relations of the En-
glsh and French governments is not one which
will permit of any addition to the complications
already existing. The silly ruse is adopted of
pointing to America as the birthplace of these
plottings, when everybody knows that the dyna-
mate is manufactured in England of materials
carried over separately or purchased openly; and
the clock work is not of American, but of French
manufacture.
If there were wanting proof of this, 1t would
be found in the severity with which the customs
officers in England now examine the luggage of
passengers crossing the Channel. Trunks are
opened overhauled their contents taken out
and every essence bottle smelt at, and trinket
examined, lest it should contain some deadly and
damnable compound. or some intricate machine,
devised for the destruction of the British con
stitution. But it is hardly worth while taking
notice of the mock walls of the English press on
the subject of dynamite. Let them present
their grievances under that head to the French
republic.

This Disposes of Lawn-Tennis.


Considerable talk is beginning to be heard
about the marked effect which excessive lawn
tennis playing is having upon the physical we'll
being of American girls Two or three marked
instances will at once occur to any familiar
with Boston society, in which the health of
young ladies has been seriously impaired while
the cases in which good looks have been ruth
lessly sacrificed are still more numerous. One
melancholy case might be given where Boston
girl, plump and rosy, fair as Aurora and grace
full as Hebe, has been transformed into a spare,
angular maiden sallow and muscular. simply by
too great devotion to the delights of the tennis
court The destinations of the game are such
that players are led on to overexertion with
grave results to health and beauty.

Uncle Sans Cash,

A gentleman called at tho United
States sub-trcasury in New York and
asked, with much eagerness, if it was
true that there was more than $50, 900,
600 in cash in the vaults of that build,
ing, lie explained that he had made o
little bet with Il friend that there was
not so much actual cash in any one build
ing in this country. The inquiring
stranger was informed that up to Friday
night the amount of money in the Stat,
treasury was $40, 40l, 900,
"But how much of that is in actua
hard CASH" asked the stranger.
"All OF it is in cash." was the reply,
"About ono-haf of it-$U, 270, 025-is
in gold coin; 1874, $40, 400 is in siIve
coin; S1,439, 900 in gold certificates

amount of his gains. which had then
reached about $4,000. and prepared
to "see" Paris. He was then twenty
years ole, or course, no one knew
that when he specialized in thousand
dollar lots that he was risking his
whole fortune at every turn of the
market. He was so placid and serene
during his operations that they gave
him credit for having a big fortune in
reserve. Mr.. Smith made things howl
in Paris. IIe'lived there four months,
spent every penny he had, and re-
turned to America with half dozen
trunks filed with clothes, no end Of
iewelry, leaving the tradesmen of
Paris doleful and forlorn. Heowed
money right and left in the French
capital, but he never allowed it to
worry him. When he arrived in New
York he had another interview with
his family, but he was so thoroughly
unmanageable that he was again toss
ed out of the house. which he has new
er since entered. A little crowd of
sycophants hung around him for a
time, but they have nearly all deserted
him now, and he has but one compan.
iona man, who is said to be an ad-
venturer and whom nobody knows.
The little dude goes everywhere, as I
said above. He may be seen driving
on the avenue in the afternoon in a
trap that is strictly correct in every
detail, and he attends the theatre and
the opera steadily. He is cut light
and left, owes every man money, and
is frequently abused in public by his
dupes. But the expression of his face
never changes, and he is apparently us
happy as he was IN Paris, when at the
height of his fortune. He is known
about town by the name CT "Jibletts. u
I don't know where the nickname
came FROM"

The lighthouse board has submitted a report
Of its operations during the year ended June
so To tho secretary OF the treasury. The board
esa lished during the year 10 new light sta
tons and discontinued 2, thus increasing the
whole number on the coasts to 172. The
number of movable river lights was increased
fl ON 972 to 1919. Ano her steam fog sigma. was
established, bringing the present number up to
67, including those operated BY hot air. The
new whi.ting buoys were placed in position,
bringing the whole number up to "a. Six bell
buoys were added to the % in place at the end
of the last year, and 2 lighted buoys were
placed on the shoals off Cape Charles and Cape
Hatteras.
Tie report says that the board has finally
succeeded in constructing and putting into
effective operation lamp for first order lights
in which mineral instead of lard oil can be
burned, and it has now in use practically but
one illuminant through the service.
Secretary McCulloch, in commenting on the
report, says that "the commerce Of our county
is to be congratulated on the high stand taken
by our lighthouse establishment among those
of other counties, as shown by the medals and
diplomas awarded the board at the various in
ternational exhibitions where it las shown its
apparatus and It's methods"

some baths in the Pyrenees. Having OBJ

he betook himself to, the mineral springs,
where he bathed unremit5ingly, but all
in vain; he did not increase in size.
"Patience," urged the doctor; there

One day, while Perlet was waiting

his own was divided by only thin par

Army Amendments in Prospect.

Several important appointments in the
higher grades of army officers will be made
during the next Presidential term. The in
coming President will have The appointment
Of two Major Generals. Major General Pope
will retire in July, 1886, and Major General
Hancock in February, 1888. Brigadier Cen
cral Augur retres next July, and it depends
on the lers nal wishes OF the President, after
being advised by the Secretary OF War and
the Lieutenant General, what Colonel shall
succeed him. Either Gen. Terry or Gen.
Howard will succeed Major General Pope.
Whoever is promoted there will not be a
vacant Brigadier Generally. The retirement
of Gen. Hancock will open the way to still

Inspector General Sackett goes on the retired
list, to be followed in July OF that year by Gen
Newton, Chief of Corps of Engineers.
