Chicago's Watch.B0xes.

Chicago IS ahead of all cities in tn
 Union in one respect, and that is in thc
 employment of what are called "watch.
 boxes." They have been in use but Z
 very short time, yet they have so demon
 strated their utility that people nov
 wonder how they ever got along without
 them. They are made of wood, ar( either square or sextagonal in Shape, art about three feet in diameter and sever
 feet high, and are provided with tele
 phone locked in a box through slot 1T which runs telegraph alarm lever.
 Each box is provided with door that is kept securely locked. The square boxes are usually fastened to telegraph-pole, while the sextagonal or newer form take the place of a lamp-post at the corner oi a street, the lamp being placed on Its apex. Every member of the police and fire departments is furnished with keys to the doors of the watch-boxes, and
 also with keys to open the boxes con- taining the telephones. Any responsi- ble citizen who desires can procure key to the doors of the watch-boxes upon making application at the police head quarters. Each key is lettered and numbered, and register of the names and residences of the parties to whom they are furnished is kept. The boxes adjuncts are trim-built wagons, each drawn by two good horses. They are stationed at convenient intervals throughout the city. Each wagon is manned by driver and two policemen.
 We will suppose citizen is passing along the street late at night, when he encounters a gang of drunken roughs who assault him. There is no policeman within call to assist him, so the gang, alter pushing and jostling him about, go on their way. The citizen goes to the next corner, takes out his key and opens the door of the watch-box and pulls down the lever of the telegraph alarm. Each watch-boX has its number and To- cation recorded, the same as a1e fire alarm boxes. In less than three minutes, and often in minute, the wagon is at his side with two policemen to assist him. The citizen meanwhile has his key remaining in the box, for while it throws the lock-bolt back the same motion ss- curely fastens it in the box, and he can not take it out until it is released by a special key, which is only carried by police and firemen. If the citizen Is badly injured the wagon takes him to his nome or the hospital, while the police go in search of the ruffians who lave mo- tested him. This is only one of the numberless ways in which the box can be made useful. It is also used by the police to have drunken or obstreperous prisoners taken to the station-houses without causing the patrolmen to leave their beats, etc. They not only assist in the capture of criminals, but, by making their capture more easy and certain than formerly, they prevent many of them from committing depredations. In case of riot or time of great need peculiar alarm is sounded on the engine-house bells, when every policeman in the city goes to the nearest watch box on his beat and receives instantaneous tele- phone orders, telling him where to go and what to do when he gets there. These watch boxes only cost $100 set up ready for use.

Good Advice to Miners.

If you want a mine, develop your property.
 Slick to one claim and develop it systematically.
 Never build a mill till you've got an ore producing mine.
 Mines are not found-they are made by thoroughly developing prospect.
 Do not misrepresent a mine; it not only hurts yourself, but the camp as well.
 Men thoroughly conversant with the for nation and oreS of a district are the best to superin- tend a mine.
 Try and post yourself on the formation of your district, do not work on the "by guess and by gosh system."
 Mining superintendents do much to help or kill a camp. A practical man in charge of pro- perty should be encouraged.
 Encourage and assist legitimate mining. Do not appoint a bank clerk or store keeper as superin- tendent of a miue or mill.
 Always arrange your selections of ledge and vein matter for as- says; don't pick out the rich and leave the poor. Further investi- gation will reflect bad on yourself and the entire district.
 If a stranger visits your camp looking for investment, don't frighten him away by asking him a dozen prices for good-looking prospect hole. Always remem- Der prospects, not a mine.
 Go down deep on a vein before starting long tunnel to tap it, Be sure that the ore is of such grade and quantity as 10 justify you in taking chances on a long tunnel through hard rock.
 There are too many men with more sand than sense superin- tending and working mines now~ a-day. There are exceptions of course. Some seek in Arizona that which only exists i'll Califor- nia, and vice versa.
 Subscribe at once for your local paper. In addition to this, take a journal that is devoted eXclu- siyely to mines and mining, as such peper keeps you posted on mining laws, new and successful methods.-F. w. s. in Mining and Scientific Press.

Illinois it was discovered that large
number of spurious ballots had been
printed and cast in favor of Rudolph
Brand for the state senate. In the
Investigation which followed suffi
cient evidence was produced to con
Wet Mackin of the crime, and he was
sentenced by Judge Blodgett to two
years in the penitentiary and the
payment of fine of S. 900. Mackin's
attorneys at once carried the case to
the Supreme Court of the United
States, before which it now is, Fol
lowing his conviction in the United
States Court for tampering with bal
lots, Mackin was indicted by the
state grand jury for perjury in swear
ing that he had not ordered nor re-
ceiyed the spurious ballots. OF this
crime he was convicted, as above
stated, and will now pay the penalty.

Poetry and Politics.

BOsTON, Nov. 16.-At the Essav
Club dinner last night letter from
Poet John G. Whittier, on the Adj

President Cleveland has proved
himself better than his party, and has
done and said some good things
which l give him full credit for, Int
the instincts of his party are against
him, and must eventually prove too

When and How to Feed Horses.

A horse ought to he fed when he is
hungry, and he ought to be hungry
every day, What makes him hun.
cry? The constant waste of system.
The muscles when brought into use
waste somewhat, especially exercise
or labor is draft upon the muscular
system, in fact on the whole system.
After the system has been taxed, and
il the tax is sufficient to partially eX-
haust or fatigue the animal. rest is
more important than feed; hence
the horse should stand and rest awhile
before he is fed. Digestion demands
flow of blood to the organs then at
work, and as the blood has been
drawn away from them to sustain
the muscular eXertion during labor,
it should not be suddenly withdrawn
and turned in upon the organs Of di-
gestion-hence let them rest, and af-
ter al hour or so, he will be found
keen and "sharp set"

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Nov. 15.-The Su-

Illinois, yesterday affirmed the deci-
sion of the lower court in the case of
Joseph G. Mackin, convicted of per.

PENDANT was that the Indictment for
perjury, being found by special
grand jury was still in existence, was
Irregular and that the defendant
could not legally be convicted under
it. The Supreme Court yesterday
decided with the lower court that the
indictment was valid, and now moth.

The Suns Washington correspon-
dent under date of 10th, gives the
following information regarding Ma
ryland appointments
"Senator German expects to leave
here tonight to spend week or ten
days in New York and Boston.
While at the Postoffice Department
to-day he said he had filed no charges
against Postmaster Johnson. of Cum
berland, Md, as has been alleged,
and so far as he was now advised Mr..
johnson would probably be allowed
to serve out his term, unless his
health becomes 50 much impaired as
to prevent him from giving proper
attention to the office. During brief
interview Postmaster General Villas
and Senator German to-day the Cum
berland matter was referred to, and
General Villas remarked that he had
no information Of any contemplated
change. The President IS not losing
any sleep over the consideration of
the prominent federal offices in Ma
ryland which he will probably be
called upon to fill before another six
molthfsssssels around. As a matter of
IaCI but one Mary lander has called
upon him since the late election, and
that was Senator German. 1t is not
learned that Mr.. German has any
idea of requesting the administration
to remove any of the Maryland fed
eral officers in advance of the expira-
ton of their commissions. He could
doubtless, as could the other Mary
land Congressman, name number
of good Democrats who would rem
der just as efficient service to the
government as the present incum-
bents, but it is not thought that he
proposes to Join in any effort for re-
movals except for good and sufficient
reasons outside of mere political
opinion"

SATURDAY. NOV. 81, 1885.

The worst rebuke New York has
yet received for its slowness in sub
scibing to the Grant monument fund
comes from Kentucky, in the shape
of a proposition to the effect that
"seeing that the people for whom he
fought have virtually refused to erect
monument to the memory of Grant,
suppose the South, against whom he
fought, only to befriend and protect
them in the hour of defeat and sorest
need, put her hand in her pocket and
contribute the money to build a pile
to the memory of the hero, whose
bosom contained a heart that felt for
her woes" The fact that General
Grant succeeded in creating such a
feeling in the breasts of those he con-
quered is more creditable to him than
half dozen monuments.
