Cologne Gasette.
The upper classes IN Russia do not
bathe frequently. Baths, as such, exist
not. There was certainly, half mile or
so from the house, an establishment called
by that name, and freQuented by the
upper servants; but it was a cOntrivance
of hot air and steam, species. of simpli-
fed Turkish bath. AS for the bath pure
and simple, il doesn't exist. Twice or
thrice during my two years. star at Mos
cow beheld an immense oval brewing
vat, as il seemed to me, being carried be-
tween two servants by means of pole
passed through the handles at each end.
it was conveyed to the Counts writing
room, and followed by many pals of
water. The furniture, or the greater part
of it, at least, had previously been re-
moved. The doors were locked, and /
was given TO understand that my lady
was taking a bath. With tdnt de fdconS
thus involved, no wonder that bath-takiRg
in Courland mansion is a solemnity
reserved for rare occasons.
II is true that the Countess Felicia,
having recently imbibed enlightened
views on hygiene, decEeed that her child
rem were to be bathed Each child was
placed in a tub and, while it covered
there in nervous terror, two large jugfuls
of cold water were discharged upon its
shrinking back, and the business was
done. AprOpos of ablution, l once heard
the following dialogue. which, perhaps,
NAV throw more light on this subject than
any description could do: Elderly patrI-

Ripening and El1eting Pears.

AS soon as pearS have attained their
fullsiz and will part readily from the
stem when raised by the hand, they should
be gathered. They should be handled as
carefully as eggs. In order to ripen them
properly spread one or more blankets in a
room from which tie light is excluded as
much as possible, put the pears thereon
and cover them with a blanket or blan-
kets, and in a few days they will be ready
for the market or home use.
In packing for market put all except the
extra specimens in crates and haIf-bar-
rels. The extra specimens that are to be
disposed of should be put in shallow
boxes, after each one is wrapped in fine,
white, soft paper. These boxes are usu-
ally only deep enough fer single layer
Of pears. One thing should be taken into
consideration, that is, the early varieties
mature quicker after they are gathered
than the late ones. If the pears are to be
shipped TO market they should be assorted
into extra and frst-class lots, leaving the
inferior ones for Immediate use at home,
as there is really no demand whatever for
pears Of poor quality--G Grange Bulletin.

a fearful time in labor, and lost the child.
During her fifth and sixth pregnancies she
took Bradfeld's Female Regulator during the
whole time, and had quick and safe delivery

Five Muraerers Hanged in Arizona.

On the night of Dec. 8, 1888, six mounted and
well-armed men raided the town of Bisbee
Ariz., and killed j. G. Tappines, j. H. Molly
and U. A. Smith and wounded Mrs. Roberts.
They then robbed Castcnada's store of 81, ,2CO
and fled in, the direction of Sonora, hoping 10
get over the border. Five of them, O. W. Sam
pie, James Howard, Dan Dowd, William De-
lane and Dan Kelly We're hanged at Tombstone,
Arizona on Friday, all declared their innocence.
Heath, who was lynched there Feb 222d, was al
soinnocent. They babe good by to their friends,
and expressed faith in the Christian religion.
The murderers We're all dropped off together,
and, excepting Dowd, died without struggle
Over ~ thousand persons witnessed the execu-
ton. The criminals did not show the slightest
fear at the near approach of DEATH After be-
ing shaven and dressed in new black suits, one
of them remarked ''Well boys, if we haven't
lived like gentlemen we will die like them I"
A few minutes before leaving their cells, the
sheriff notified them he would permit them to
go the scaffold unsha ckled, but each would

Spectators think he wasn't game enough to

joined in tho protest, but the sheriff was intiex-
ible. On the scaffold the bandits recognized
some familiar faces in the crowd, and called
out their names, cheerfuly bidding them good
bye. The nooses were then adjusted when q
second general protest was entered by all tive,.
saying they We're being clloked to death on the
scaffold. Howard requested the sheriff to.

Educating Young Indians.

For several months past Bishop Marty, of
tho Catholic churches of Dakota, has been try
ing to secure the establishment at Yankton, of
government school for. training Indian boys
fine three story brick building, built and
used for time for the Academy Of the Sacred
Heart, but which the Sisters Of Mercy were
not able to pay for, has passed into the con-
troll Of Bishop Marty. The possession of this
building, the ncarness of Yankton to the Indian
country, and Bishop Marty's long cNpe-
rience among Indians and his interest in their
welfare, have brought about the success of the
movement. Last night forty Sioux Indian boys
reached Yankton to become members of this
school, which will be similar to the Indian
schools at Hampton and Carlisle, and is the
only one of the kind west of the Alleghanies

Deaths of Noted Peop1e.


Hon. Augustus Schell of New York died on
the 9th. The family was grouped about the
bedside when he expired. He had been suf-
fering for long -ilne past from ~ complication
of diseases. All hope OF his recovery was given
up on the sd, when he seemed to be sinking
rapidly. Mr.. Scholl was in tears at noon on the
26th. Four sishtless girls had just finished a
hymn at his bedside They had come in re-
sponse to his dying wish. The touching way
in which they had rendered the hymn seemed
to affect deeply the lawyer, statesman and fin
ancier nearing his death, and he almost
sobbed The scene moved Mrs. Schell and the
relatives present to tears. Mr.. Schell thanked
the young womea and then feelingly bade
them farewell and asked them to bid the other
inmates of the New York Institute for the
Blind, from which they came, ''Gool-bye" :"
The unfortunate girls were overcome. Mr.
Schell had for Years taken great interest ip
the inmates of the blind asylum.

Quite panic was produced in New
York and vicinity by reports set afoat
by home butchers that western dressed
beef sent in refrigerator cars was un-
wholesome from a chemical process
used in preparing it for transportation.
Western men denied this emphatically
and Mr.. P. d Armour, of Chicago, who
is responsible man, asserted positive
ly that there is nothing in the process
Of refrigeration that renders the beef
unwholesome. When chemicals are
used for refrigeration, it is in pipes that
do not come directly in contact with
the beef. Ofcourse, after having been
frozen, the beef may not keep so long as
that killed at home; but except in occa-
ional instances that is not serious OBJ
lection. The newspapers did their best
to allay the panic, and the trade was
not materially injured, and probably
will hereafter be greatly augmented.
The people of the east look to the west
more than ever before for their bread
and butter and beef.

Vanderbilt on Stocks and proanes.

In an interview MI. W. H. Vanderbilt ap-
proves the Pennsylvania roads demand to cut
grain rates. because it will bring the cutting
roads to their senses In regard to the stock
market he said s'The conditions of the mar
ket shows that there are no stock there. Bro
kers who used to borrow 81, ,O00, 900 are no W
borrowing OILY s1,5C0,000. They haven't got
the securities, and customers don't want to
sell. Stock pays better than the interest money.
There was another large reduction in the price
of grain at Chicago to-day, and 1 am told that
four hundred cars were engaged recently.
These things may start up business. The
grain prospects in the west are promising May
wheat sold in Chicago to-day at IS cents. If
there is anything that will ruin this country it
is grain speculation It is getting foreign
consumers to run off to other countries A few
years ago India raised3 coo, 900 bushels of grain
Last year the production was about 5000, coo
bushels, wasn't it? We ought to sell all we can
abroad, and not let other countries get in ahead
of us. I don't believe there will be SO many
railroads built this year as there have been. 4
law ought to be passed by which, if am pres
ident of a railroad, cannot be president Of a
construction COMP any organized to build it
ought to be made to pay back profits made in
such case on the railroads. Some of these
will be made to pay back, I think.

and publicity says that "the laboring
classes must be educated up to accept
areduction of say 33b per cent on the
present rates of wages; that 1--WE must
have as cheap rates as Europe or our
interests will suffer-" This man Clews
is but the type of class that seems de-
termined to break down the dignity
and independence of American citizens.
This was the class that would nave de-
luged the country with "cheap Chinese
labor" It was welcomed as fitting
substitute for America in all the de-
partments of labor, because of its cheap
ness, and what is peculiarly grateful to
the latter-day snobs-its slavish servil
ity-more degrading, if possible, than
slave labor. All of the large cities and
many of the smaller, contain just such
