A Wonderful Discovery.

1t is believed by officers of the Patent
Office that one Of the most important
inventions which they have had to deal
in many years, Is one in which the APP
plicatiOn for a patent has lately been
granted, and by which the business of
manufacturing sewing machines is
about to be revolutionized once more.
The latest invention in sewing ma
chimes is more marvellous than any
thing that has proceeded it. An in
genious Boston man has devised hand
sewing machine which can be operated
by the three lower fingers of the hand,
almost as rapidly as the present ma
chimes that are operated by foot power.
The new device is SO light that any wo-
man can easily hold it in her hand
while using it, and will probably be
sold at $5. Although not one of them
has been put upon the market, the in
ventor has already realized a fortune
out of it, for every capitalist who has
seen it has recognized its great value,
Arrangements are now being made fol-
placing them on sale throughout the
world, and millions will probably be in
use before many years. The new ma
chine is not as big or heavy as tailor's
shears.

The Turkish Soldier and Sailor.

Universal conscription is the order OF
the day in Turkey. Every male Mo-
hammedan is liable to service except
those fortunate enough to have been
born in Constantinople, the Turkish
capital possessing the privilege Of con-
ferring exemption on its citizens by
birth. On attaining the age of Il,
every Turk has to present himself at
the military center of the district
wherein lie resides. and draw for the
ballot. Those fortunate enough to oD-
tain lucky numbers pass at once into
the ''lktihat, as also those for whom
there may be no room in the '.cadres"
of the peace establishment of the army.
Six years is the regular period of SER
vice in the Man," four with the
regiment, and two in its '.lktihat. "
Alter leaving the "N.zam." the ire
servist' becomes '.Redif'' for eight
years, and then passes into the ''Mus-
tatiz for the full period OF his life dur
Ing which ho IS capable of bearing
arms The ..R difs" are divided into
two classes. first and second, OF equal
periods in respect to service. Curious,
however, as ii will no doubt appear in
the eyes of western military critics, il
is the second class of the .Redifs
that is, the older lnen--who are called
out first. Tho reason of this is, as
am given to understand. that the gov
ernment is thus enabled to get q few
years more military service out Of the
men in case OF need than it otherwise
would. ~ Minetee,ath Centary.

The Party ofshs Common People.
lrron o. n.r.sera r.Isrnn-p.n.l

The result OF the election I'm New
York carries with II lesson 80 plain
that "he who runs may read" IL Is
this: The Democratic party Is invinci-
BILE when IL standsas the representative
and the defender OF the common peo-
pie.
President Cleveland never was an
active legislator. He entered political
life In an executive capacity. When
he was called upon to decide upon inn
2ortant public measures as governor OF
New York he had not learned how
jealous the working people are of their
rights. He vetoed measures that gave
offense 10 the wage-earners, and this
very nearly cost him his election to the
Presidency. II Mr.. Cleveland had ex-
perience as legislator he would have
been brought closer 10 the people, and
he would have never made the blunder
he did in vetoing the Five-Cent-Fare
bill. Mr.. Cleveland was rescued from
political death by the votes of q large
number of dissatisfied Republicans. He
never would have needed these votes
had he listened to the voice of the
workingmen when serving as Governor
of New York.
David B. Hill has rescued the Demo-
cratic party In New York, and planted
it firmly on Its feet because of his de-
votion to the common people. He Is
not led astray by the Establishments OF
capital. He knows that close adhe-
renee to the time-honored policy of the
Democratic party will strengthen the
hands of any representative of that
marty who wtelds exeeutiye pOwer Mr.
Hill began his career as legislator.
He has felt the popular pulse time and
time again. When he succeeded Cleve-
land as Governor he became the cham
pion Of the common people. This ac-
counts for his great success at the polls
on Tuesday in the Empire State. The
common people had faith in him, and
all the combinations of corporate hate
could not compass his defeat.
The Democratic party, we repeat, Is
Invincible as the party of the people.
Let this be borne in mind by all men
who are honored by its suffrages.

Wonderful Gun.

CHICAGO, November 16.--A French
Canadian residing at SO Sholto street
has invented cannon which he claims
is superior to any other make at present
In use. It operates on the same princi-
Pile as does a repeating rifle and sixty
shots per minute may be discharged,
while all danger of the arm becoming
heated, and possibly causing prema-
ture explosion, Is obviated, an advan-
tage which but few cannons possess.
But two men are required to operate 1t,
and they may be entirely shielded from
Ehe I iemy's attack by q large metal
screen. The gun, which Is affixed to .
pivot and may be instantly pointed In
any direction, lis provided with CONF
bination lock, so that in case of capture
by the enemy IL will be entirely useless
unless the combination Is known. 1t
is intended to be used chiefly for siege
purposes, but can be attached to a car
riage and operated in the field also. IT
has a range capacity Of five miles.

Railroads in China.

New YORK, November 16.-As re-
suit of the visit of Baron de Lorne,
a company has been formed in this city
to build railroads in China. 1t is as
serted that the emperor of China has
decided in favor Of the American rail-
way system, and that he will extend all
possible aid to American capitalists.
The only attempt at railroad building
In China was that begun in 1857 from
Woosung, on the Yang-tse- Kiang river,
to Shangai, distance of twelve miles,
which was received with such opposi-
tiOn by the natives that the project had
TO be abandoned. Since that time, the
baron claims, great change has taken
place in the feelings Of the people as
well as the policy of the government,
and instead Of opposition investors
would find ready aid and assistance in
such projects.
A number of prominent people are
interested in the matter.

IL Mr.. Lincoln Did That He Was
Blight.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 2.-The Globe Dem
0crdt has published editorially the fol.
lowing interesting facts in connection
with President Lincoln and the war. A
number of personal friends were Discus
sing some incidents of he late war.
One of them spoke of Mr.. Lincoln's
aversion to bloodshed, and in illustra-
tiOn said that he had it from member
Of the Cabinet of the war period. that
Mr.. Lincoln, on his return from the
Hampton Roads conference in Febru-
ary, 1865, proposed to submit message
to Congress giving to the Southern
States an amount of money equal to the
probable cost of the war from that time
to its close, on condition of their laying
down their arms and returning to their
loyalty to the Uniou. The editor of the
Globe Democrat, hearing of the con-
versati0n, sent q memorandum of it to
Hon. John P. Usher, who was at that
time referred to Mr.. Lincoln's Secre-
tary of the Interior. aud is now resi-
dent of Lawrence, Kansas, requesting
him to state his recollection as to lis
correctness. From Mr.. Usher's reply,
which was received yesterday, we make
the following extract:
"Soon after his (LincoIn's) return
from the James, the Cabinet was con-
vened and he read to it for approval q
message which he had prepared to sub
NIT to Congress, in which he recon-
mended that Congress appropriate
$300,000,000 to be apportioned among
the several States in proportion to their
slave population, to be distributed TO
the holders Of slaves in these States,
upon condition that they would con.
sent to the abolition of slavery, and the
disbanding of the insurgent army, and
would acknowledge and submit to the
laws of the United States. The mem
bers Of the Cabinet were all opposed
He seemed somewhat surprised at that
and asked: "How long will the wal
last?" No one answered. But he soon
said: IA hundred days; we'll, we are
spending now in carrying on the war
$1,000, 900 a day, which will amount to
all this money besides all the lives.'i
With deep sigh he added, "but you
are oil opposed to me and / will not

Are Baking Powders whofesome9

A vexed question that cannot be readily answer
ed by the ordinary housekeeper. There are three
distinct classes OF these powders, differing In the
active principle employed viz, those containing
cream tartar, alum and the phOsphates. Cream tar
tar powders leave arrate Of soda and potash in the
bread; alum powders leave sulphate Of soda, while
the phosphate powders leave the phosphates therein
There has always beer more or less controversy
among scientists as to the healthfulness Of cream
tartar and alum when used constantly. There is no
question az TO the healthfulncss and nutritious
value Of the phosphates to the human systcm All
authorities are agreed upon this point, and when
Prof. Horsford produced baking powder contain
ing the phosphates, he was universally c0ngratat
ed upon his achievement. The eminent Baron
Liebg one of the most practical chemists the world
ever produced, wrote to him: II have, through q
great series Of experiments satisfied myself OF the
purity and excellence o. your baking preparations.
The bread has no acid Is easily dgested and of the
best taste Aside from the conveniences this In
valuable idea Of yours has provided consider this
invention as one of the moet useful gifts which
| science has made to mankindi It is certain that
the nutrtive value OF the -four will be increased ten
per cent. BY your phosphate baking preparations,
and the result 10 precisely the ifthe fertile
ty of our wheat fields had been increased BY that
amount. What wonderful result is this Z"
While there may doubt arise as to the healthful-
ness OF ordinary baking powder, no one need hesi-
tate about using the powder made by Prof. Hors-
fJrd's process. He not only produces apowder that
is hcathful, but It is actually nutritious food In
itself, and cannot be too highly recommended.

Diphtheria is o terrible disease, re-
quiring the medical skill to effect a COM
plete cure. Even when its power is
broken, it clings to the patient with
great persistency, and often leaves the
system poisoned and prostrated. Just
here Hoods Sarsaparilla does vast
amount of good, expelling impurities
from the blood, giving it richness and
vitality, while it renovates and
strengthens the system.
