Pretty Good Memory.

"You say your husband has q good
memory, do you, Mrs. Crimsonbeak ?"
"Oh, excellent" responded the lady
addressed. "And how do you know it
is so very good?" well, ! asked him
to bring me home a mackerel a week
ago, and he brought it home to-day.
Now, man must have pretty good
memory to remember little thing like
that for a whole week. "-Yonkers

The launch of the Eureka at one of
the Brooklyn yards, the other day, is
one step in notable experiment for
doing away with steam in naval propul-
sion. The main idea in the new system
is to drive the vessel forward or back
ward by the expulsion of gas from the
submerged bow and stern against the
water. The idea is not new one
among scientists, but it is claimed that
in the Eureka it has been made pract-
ical for the first time. The vessel itself
is of about seventy five tons, being 100
feet by twelve, with depth of seven
feet. On each side, about eight feet
forward of the stern-post, are two lid
covered ports, connected with cham
bers. There are also two forward
ports of the same kind, and through
these the discharges are made from a
central point, those from the stern for
driving the vessel forward, and vice
versa, while simultaneous discharge
from forward port and aft starboard
chamber, and vice versa, will turn her
sharply round in either direction. The
engine only takes up six feet of room,
and only enough power is required to
compress air into steel globe two feet
in diameter, into which vaporized pc
troleum has been forced. The explo-
sive material to be used has been kept
q secret, but the New York Sun init
mates it is gas generated from oil and
ignited sby electricity. Should the ex-
pertinent prove successful its applica-
ton will be watched with great in
terest. IT seems daring move to try
to dethrone King Steam, but invention
grows bold in these days, and he would
be rash who should say that people
will not soon be exploded acress the
Atlantic.

Conspiracies an d strikers.

It Is no credit to labor organizations

In st. Louis for being engaged in con-
spiracy to blow up street cars full OF

three Of the latter are otfi GERS high up
In the confidence of the strikers, one
being q Master Workman, one j odge
Advocate and another an Assembly
Treasurer. Their completely in the
conspiracy Is fully established by their
own confession.
Ifthis is what the leading organiza'
ton for the benefit OF labor Is coming
to In this country, such organizations
must lose the sympathy and respect Of
the people, o sympathy which they
have had to large degree. Still we
do not believe that the great mass Of
vorkingmen OF the country can have
ary sympathy whatever for any
wretch that would deliberately conspirt
tn blow up cars filled with men, womer
and children with dynamite neither
can we believe that these conspiriug

thing, however, is certain, the Order o
knights of Labor will have TO unloa

No Organization can carry such me

Civii servieo GIypocrisy.

President Cleveland still tries to pose
before the people ~ a civil service re-
former and q pon-paTtisan President,
but the composition of the new Civil
Service Commission will hardly sup
port him In his assumed position. The
Commission before consisted of two Re-
publicans and one Democrat. Mr..
Eaton. an ex perieuced gentleman whom
the President lspded in letter
column long in the average nesspaper,
rs giving the grea;es5 satisfaction was
the chairman Of the commission. 1t
was not long, however, before Mr.. Eaton
found that he was not wanted in The
position he held, aud his resignation
boon followed without any protest on
the part of President Cleveland. The
resignation OF the other two members
of tho commission were also accep ed,
and Cleveland was left with no i'm
pediment in the way OF forming COM
mission after his own heart, one Of
course that was 20 DO non partisan
according 10 his view OF the mat
ter.
We have now in the appointment OF
the new commission what Mr.. Cleve
land calls non partisan. Mr.. Edgar
ton 10 an Indiana Bourbon, Democrat
90 pure In principle that he would no
vote for Mr.. Greeley for President II
1872, and voted for Charles O'Connor
Mr.. Trenholm Is son OF Jefferson
Davis, Secretary OF tbs Treasury
With such shining exem plars of Democ
racy We may no Y expest non-parti
san administration OF the Civil Service
Department of the Government, accord
ing to Mr. Clevelaud's ideas of non
partisanship. The curious part OF it |
that Mr.. Eaton, who before was at tn
head of the com mission, now comes /
at the tail end. The most experiences
man put where he can do the lea
good, wedged in between two B1urbo
Democrats. Before, with two Rspub
Icans and one Democrat the commits
sion was partisan. Now, with tw
Democrats and one Republican, 1t
Immediately transformed into mol
partisan commission. Mr. Clevelan
Is represented as being pleased with hi
experiment. No doubt he Is. Tt

fees will all be pleased. IL is a

HAPPY Cleveland How soundly
he sleeps in his temporary occupancy
of the White House since the election.
The saddle boys OF Fltzaugh's uncle
and PicketL's rebel flag did the business
for him in Virginia. His own little
contribution Of u thousand dollars, and
the NJ ugwumps did it for him in New
York. How gently his three HUNDRED
pounds avoirdupois must sink to rest
in his undulating feather bed His
soul must feel as gentle a. that OF a
bleating eve before the SHOWS of win
ter have touched her. He scars along
through space like a gentle zephyr
without though, of adverse winds
He has plenty to eat, plenty TO drink
and clothes to wear and nothing TO Dc
until Congress meets which will be IL
about four weeks. Colonel Lamont
will write his message Tor him with q
little help from Secretary Bays ard. Bu
won't Congress pluck him. Good soul
