Origin Of Shakespeare Concordance.
Like SO many great things, it owed
it's genesis to n mere accident. It was
in July, 1929, when Mrs. Cowden-
Clarke was sitting at the breakfast
table Of some friends in Somersetshire
that regret was expressed that there
existed no concordance toShakespcare.
Eager in everything, Mrs. Cowden-
Clarke resolved then and there that
she would write this desired concor-
dance; and that very afternoon, while
joining her friends in walk through
the fields, she took with her a volume
of the poet and u pencil, and jotted
down tho first lines of her book under
''B. Boatswain, have care" Temp. l.,
l, etc. The following is an account
she gave me Of the mode OF writing
she ultimately adopted for this work:
II had u separate portfolio for each
,a.+nr of the alphabet; these portfolios
were ranged in front of mo on my
writing table. opened my fathers
copy Of Shakespeare at my side, hay
ing two pages in view at time. took
the first word that presented itself at
the top of the first page Two will sup
pose this word to begin with an 'a)
and entered each word commencing
with the same letter on the manu-
script page which was headed by the
word, and placed it in its respective
portfolio; going thus alphabetically
through tho whole Of the two spread
open pages until every salient word
therein was duly culled and register

six hours per day, and always before
and after breakfast till dinner time;

supremely happy We're the hours
then! Side by side, one working at
this book, the other writing his lee
lures on our poet idol" When she
had got half way she was told that
some other person was engaged on
the same task. Sadly, very sadly, she
packed up all her portfolios and ma
terials, resolved to abandon the task,
thinking, with native modssty, that
the unknown rival would surely do it
better. She told me that to this day
she could recall her feelings while
kneeling on the floor and pushing
away the large packet under her bed
for safe keeping, for they lived in
small quarters then and space had to
be economical. Joyful, very joyful,
was she when she learned the rumor
was unfounded and she could have
her packet brought forth again. Some
idea Of the vastness of the undertak-

A pathetic incident at a New Yorl;

QUEEN vloroRINs INDUSTRY.

1t is mistake to suppose That the Qoeer
enjoys a holiday during her spring visit to
Balmoral. Exactly the same amount OF
business is transacted as when her Majesty
is at Windsor. A messenger with huge
sack of boxes and bags is despatched from
Buckingham Palace three days week, and
from Whitehall on the alternate days. He
leaves Kings Cross at 1890 in the morning,
and arrives at Aberdeen at the next morn
ing, going on OF oncs to Ballater by the
special messenger train, which is run on
the Deeside line when the Court is in Scot
land, and which also conveys the supplies
of cream, butter, fruit, and vegetables which
are sent to the Queen every day from Frog
more. The messenger reaches Balmoral
about 8, and remains there till early In the
afternoon of the following day, when he
starts with another load to catch the train
leaving Aberdeen at 4.40, which brings him
to Euston square at s the next morning. As
rule, the Queen and Sir Henry Ponsonby
are kept hard at work from $50 till l. Her
Majesty usually breakfasts at $50 in Scot.

THE AMERICAN HOTEL GIRL.

A correspondent Of the Salt Lake Tribune,
countrywoman abroad Immediately in
front of three young fellows dressed in knee
brooches and flannel shirts, who have
tramped SO long they look rather out of
place in n vehicle, sits the American hotel
girl. Yesterday she tried to walk up Mon
tanvent aud over the Mer-de- Glace in high
heeled kid boots, aud to-day she is if any
thiny, more inanimate than usual. She Ia
pretty and pale, and her high-heeled boots,
rich dress, and white complexion, serve as
effective contrast to the " stogies," flannel
shirts, and peeled noscs of her countrymen
| aforesaid. She detests Switzerland. She
hates being dragged about in this way, but
she endures it because it is "the thing"
She sees little aud learns nothing. She
submits to it rs she would to having her
ears pierced, because it is the requirement
of fashion. Paris is the only place she APP
preciates, and she spends her time there in
shopping She is ostentatiously languid,
and vulgarly assertive by turns. She is a
success in a Misrepresentation Of her coun-
trywomen abroad. There by her side is q
girl who looks straight out into space, and
is in mortal terror lest some improper per-
son should speak to her. Beside her sits q
pleasant faced, kindly old gentleman, who
is endeavoring to make himself agreeable,
but she is about as gracious as carved idol,
and as sweet as a frozen lemon.

THE POWER OF MUSIC.

sour army under General Bragg was
watching the Yankees, and there had been
considerable diminishing going on all day,
but towards nightfall even the picket firing
seemed to cease with common consent. The
evening was lovely, and during the CON-
parative stiffness one of the federal bands
took position on little knoll just inside
of their lines, within hearing distance of
both armies, and began to play old tunes
familiar to oil. The boys dropped every
thing to listen, and as the sweet tones, mel
lowed by distance, came throbbing down
the lines men ceased to talk, or only spoke
in subdued voices, for the music seemed al.
most divine. By and by the notes of Hail
Columbia rang out, and cheer on cheer
went up from the Union soldiers, which
were echoed back by the Confederates,
when the band followed with Dixie's Land
Then came the Star Spangled Banner,

five minutes, it seems to me, after the music
ceased. Then from the ranks of Federals

In recent article upon the Tariff as
an issue In this campaign, the N. Y. Sun
tersely and clearly stated the difference
between the Protectionists and the Free
Traders upon this question. II said =
EQUITIES on imports are recognized as
the principal means of supplying the
Treasury. But in levying these duties
shall they or shall they not be so arrang-
ed as to favor American industry, and to
make it safe against the competition of
foreign industry, and especially of British
industry? This we believe, is the whole
question that is now in dispute. The
Free Traders insist that duties shall be
levied exclusively for the purpose of pro-
ducing revenue and without any view
whatever toward the fostering and en-
couraging Of American industry. The
Protectionists insist that, while revenue
is the first purpose, regard should con-
stantly be had to the encouragement of
American interests, and that there should
be discrim nation in duties for that pur-
pose"
The Democrats have nom mated Cleve-
land and Hendricks Oh platform which
declares for the free trade principle, that
duties shall be levied Exclusively for
public purposes, that is, for revenue the
Republicans have nominated Blaine aud
Logan on the precisely opposite platform
of protection for AMI encouragement OF
American industries. That this is so
can be seen at glance by placing the
Republican and the Democratic pla tforms
side by side, as below -

The Newark advertiser has this to say
of Rev. DR.. winnings report on the
Cleveland scandal, and the point it makes
is as just as it is forcible =
"When it comes to logic, these indie
pendent soreheads are a funny lot.-They
are now chnckling over what they call
the unanswerable statement Of the Rev.
Kinsley Twining, who undertook to hunt
down the details of the socalled Cleye-
land scandal. Having admitted the truth
of the main charges against Cleveland,
the Rev. Twining disposed of all the rest
by say ing that those portions, when traced
to their sources, invariably led the anx-
ious inquirer to ''the brothels and the
stews" A queer man the Rev. Twining
must be. To Ind out whether man is
of impure life or not, he would go to the
Sunday School and prayer-meeting, not
to the place where impurity hides itself. !"

The Indians Happy Over IA Prospect of Un-
limited soup Next Winter.

The Piutes have been busy for some time
harvesting grasshoppers. There are great
numbers of these insects, and this, coupled
with the Indians fondness for them, has re-
suited in brisk work. The savages got to-
gether in the vicinity of lake or pond, and
form ring around it. When everything is
ready they beat tom-toms and sticks, and
begin to close in. The hoppers, started by
the noises, jump toward the water, and fin
ally fly into it. When the Indians have the
surface of the pond well covered, they dip
the insects out in baskets and, going TO the
shore, spread them out to dry. Some OF
them come to life and hop away, but the
great mass of them die and witherup. After
the hoppers are well dried, the sayages roll
them gently SO as to break off the wings and
legs, and the bodies are then thrown into a
pile by themselves. At the close of the
days work the hoppers, dried and assorted,
are stored away in caches for winter.
The Indians of the coast very highly prize
the dishes made from these insects. They
make soup of them first, and finally, when
they will answer for no more soup, they nre
eaten. A bushel of grass hoppers will make
soup enough to last ten or fifteen persons "a
week. The hoppers are left in the kettle
after, the first meal, and the next day an
other supply Of water is added, togethe,
with any game that may have been taker
that day, and the mess is then boiled again.
When the hoppers have lost their flavor they
are eaten.
Reports from California and Nevada are
TO the effect that the Indians never before
had 30 large crop, and that they are over
joyed at the prospect of a winter withou!
