A Little Girls Company Manners,

"Sit down, will you please, and wais
a moment till mother comes?" said a
little girl to two ladies who came to
see her mother.
"And will you give me Il glass, of
water, Martha?" asked one Of. the
ladies; I am very thirsty"
"With pleasures" answered Martha,
and she presently came back with, two
goblets of water, on a small waiter,
which she passed to both ladies'.
"Oh! thank you," said the other
lady; "you are very thoughtful
You are quite welcome,'r said
Martha, very sweetlv.
When Martha went out of the room
one of the ladies said; This little girl
is one of the loveliest children I ever
met. How sweet and obliging her
manners arer'
Let us 90 into the next room and
see. Martha took the water back into

''Me drink! me drink" cried little
Bobbie, catching hold of his little Sis

lips.

She, however, dragged herself up

''No you didn't" cried Martha in
cross, contradictory tone; '.you always

mayed round the chamber. tumbling
things over like the north wind.
'sNo matter" said the dear old
lady, seeing she would have much to
do to put things to rights again; ''no
matter, Martha; they will come to
hand;' and she quietly put down the
news paper for by and by. Martha left
her and went down stairs with pout.
Oh, dear! where are Martha civil,
obliging manners? Why, those are her
company manners. She puts them on
in the parlor and puts them off when
she leaves the parlor. She wears them
before visitors, and hangs them up
when they are gone. You see, she has
no manners at home; she is cross and
disobliging and rude and selfish. She
forgets that home is the first place to
be polite in-in the kitchen as well as
in the parlor. There is no spot in the
house where good manners can be DIS
pensed with.--E0rly Deus

A New Glass Furnace.

A patent on glass furnnce has been
taken out by John V. Ebel, of Pitts
burgh. The principal features are
that the melting and blowing is con-
tinuous, and there is great saving in
fuel, pots and working time. The
furnace consists of three receptacles,
the middle one being the combustion
chamber, and as the material melts it
runs through port holes into either of
the side chambers, where it is refined
at the bottom and rises pure to the top
ready for blowing. The furnace is to
be run by hot air made from slack
coal by process connected with the
patent or by manufactured gas. The
pecnniary saving is expected to be
very great--PhiladelpAla North Anseri-

Not a Good Market,
Washington Letter to the Chicago Tribun.

Washington Letter to the Chicago Tribune
Washington cannot be considered a
good matrimonial market. The young
women do not find husbands easily in
the society of this place. The proof
of the fact is that there is hardly a
leading official or wealthy family here
that has not one or two old maids upon
its hands. This is notably true of some
of the most prominent and distinguished.
Here are daughters whose fathers have
large wealth and handsome positions.
Yet their daughters, who are thoroughly
trained, well-mannered and educated
do not find husbands. Whether it is
that these young ladies aim too high
or not is unknown. It may be that
their fathers are not able to give them
money enough to set them up in
establishment, equal to their own, and
as a natural consequence these young
women may prefer the prestige and
comfort of their fathers handsome posi-
tions to the obscurlty Of marrying an
humble citizen or the uncertainty
involved in marrying man who is not
rich. / could name ut least twenty
young ladies who have been bellies in
Washington society for at least ten
years. There are very few marrying
young men in Washington. The army
and navy fellows. are the principal candi-
dates for matrimony. You may add to
this list thirty or forty half-starved
attaches of the different legations. But
all these young men are thrifty and
are looking out for rich wives. The
noble and energetic young man who is
making his own way in the world and
who is growing up with the country
does not come to Washington. The
men who do come here and who have
money are generally already provided
with a family or are beyond middle age,
when men do not act hastily and are
not apt to set up new establishments or
incur new ties. The only real eliaibles
are the widowers. They are considered
as fair candidates and every now and
then one of them succumbs. The
number. however, Is limited, and out
side of their money and position would
not be considered anywhere else as
prizes.

Reported Fight at Fort Pitt.

A Battleford Special of the Goth says: Scouts

a fight and two police were killed, and that the
police and others in the fort had taken to boats

The Watertown, Wis, Reputation.

In the United States circuit court at Madison
Judge Gresham rendered a decision which
practically relieves the city of Watertown from
paying it's bonded railway Indebtedness of
over s., 100000. The city repudiated it's in
debtedness several years ago, and for long
period resorted to strategy in having no
city officers, and prevented bondhold-
ers from serving summons upon
1t. This feat was finally accomplished, how
Metcalf against the city was brought Defen-
.dant city set up the plea of the statute of lin
itations, and United States District Judge Bum
rendered decision inits favor A rehearing
was then had before United States Circuit
Judge Gresham, who affirms Judge Bunns de-
cision. The fact occasioned great rejoicing at
Watertown The case will probably be an
pealed to the United States supreme court

NEWS OF THE WEEK SUMMARIZED.
Gen. Grant Enjoys a Ride.

New York Special:-At quarter to o'clock
on Monday the family carriage drove up to the
house. A few moments later Gen. Grant was
standing in the doorway. AS he advanced
toward the edge of the stoops the crowd raised
their hats to him. and ne smilingly nodded in
recognition. Like a bird stepping out of it's
freedom. 1t was a perfect day, and
the general stood in the full glare of the
midsummer sun ishaling the balmy breezes
of spring that were waited over from the
park. He was tightly wrapped. HIS heavy
winter overcoat was closely buttoned over
suit Of dark cloth; and large red scarf pro-
tected his throat. He wore tall silk hat
and carried a SMALL thin cane in his hand.
AS he walked down the stops it was evident
that hid wanted to conceal his weakness and
his whole attention in getting to the carriage
unaided and without faltering. The rest of
the party followed on behind him. The gen
eral entered the carriage first, and after he
had seated himself comfortably the others
followed. AS they drove away there was a
slight cheer from the crowd.
Gen. Grants appearance was disappointing
to those who had inferred from the reports of
dis improved condition that a physical gain
had also take place. He looks like very sick
man vet The effects of his long sickness are
plainly and distressingly apparent in his face,
has changed from steel gray to a snowy
white; the broad face of years ago is now long
drawn out and thin, and he has
none Of the ruddy color that once character
lied it It is in his way of walking,
however, that the change is more noticeable
All traces OF his solder-like bearing have dis
appeared. His shoulders are stopped and he
bends over like man approaching his 10vth
year He walks slowly and carefully, and al
ways bears heavily on his cane The drive
lasted about twenty minutes When Gen.
Grant reached his room he looked out of the
window moment at the crowd When they
began to notice him, however, he disappeared

Quinine, the most active preparation
OF Peruvian bark, is just-now the prin-
cipal subject of investigation by Prof.
Waller, chemist of the board of health.
This drug has several alkaloids, none
OF which are so direct in, effect, and all
are much cheaper than the pure quiz
nine. These alkaloids are sulphate of
einchonidia, sulphate ofeinchona, and
sulphate of quinidia. These inferior
forms of guinine, it is claimed by many
druggists, are substituted by unscrup-
ulous druggists where asinine is pre-
scribed, and with very bad effect, be-
cause if a patient was ordered ten
grains OF quinine and got in place ten
grains Of cinchonidia, hs- would have
In reality only eight grains of quinine,
which would fail to produce the desir-
ed result. With the other alkaloids
the percentage of difference is much
greater.
Hospital quinine is also spoken of as
not being pure. 1t is said to be com
bination of all the alkaleids, and has
yellow tinge, where the: pure article is
Of fleecy whiteness. The lately dis
covered adulteration of quinine with
sugar of milk caused many of
the druggists to open their eyes in as
tonishment, as the difference in their
weight and appearance of the two is
so great as to be Immediately percep-.
tible when placed on the scales. The.
feeling, too, shows a. vast difference,
the sugar being like coarse flour.
while the quinine feels more like soft
cotton. Again, one is easily soluble,
while the other is soluble only in an,
acid. Deliberate adulteration of this.
kind is denounced as crime.-Neu

Another Account Of the Killing of sarr1os

The San Francisco Bulletin publishes the fol-
lowing particulars of the death of the late
President Barrios of Guatemala, obtained from
l. B. Parrot, the Guatemalan consul Of this
city, who returned mere on the steamer Gre
NADIA from Guatemala. The engagement in
which Barrios was killed was between one
battalion of the Guatemalan troops and amuch
larger body of San Salvadoreans. Barrios
gave the order to attack, but no advance
movement had been made, as the troops were
under command of an unpopular officer, and
refused to obey hin. Barrios was in his tens
with two Of his officers when this information
was brought to him. On the refusal of both
these officers to assume command he left the
tent, and while proceeding to the front of the
column he was intending to lead he was shot
by a sharpshoo+er from tree. The bullet en-
tered his right shoulder, passed through his
heart, and out through the left side Mean
