industrial Pursuits in Paris

Philadelphia Press: Statistics show
hat more than half million of Paris
ians are employed in commerce, trade
and banking operations, while of the
artisan class there are considerably
more than a million and a quarter.
The liberal professions seem to occupy
but a small proportion Of the population
All combined do not amount to 200. 900
The great majority are in public service,
which employs m0e than medicine,
law and divinity combined. But after
the public service it is art which gives
employment and livelihood to the great
est number of Parisians Forty-two
thousand get their income from this
branch of industry. The doctors come
after, hut q long way after. Medicine,
IN its branches, supports $1,000, the
branches, of course, including chemists
and all compounders and vendors of
medicine. Then comes the law. with
its Il, 900 votaries, from Judges to crier.
Literature figures very low on the list,
for, grouped with science and iourn-
alism, it gives employment to only IL
600 people. while ail the clergy Of all
the persuasions amount 70 but half that
number On the whole Paris would
seem tc be more industrious. more ar
tistic, less literary and less religious
than the ordinary visitor would sup
pose, while the proportion in which tho
working class exceeds those who live
on their income is more remarkable. as
Paris is the recognized center Of ex-
penditure and extravaganza for 81
France.

What to do In a Tornado.

Sergeant Finley, Signal officer at
Kansas City, Mo-, has published the
following advice with regard to precau-
tions against tornadoes:
"The inhabitants of tornado-fre-
quented district must be watchful III
the season of visltations, for he can
never know when the destruction may
come upen him. ON the first sign OF
the approaching vortex, he must run
always to the north, unless by going IN
that direction lac will have to cross the
entire path of the storIns If he is
nearer to the southern edge than to the
center of the probable path, he may go
south, bearing slightly east; but in no
event should he ever run directly to
the east or northeast. Ii is impos-
sible to save any building that
may alie in the path of the tornado, or
any property that cannot be- got
out of its way. No material, no method
of construction can DO competent to re-
sist the raging destruction. Nothing
rising above the ground can escape It,
The most practical measure of precaur
ton is to construct a 'dugoW' at some
suitable point, within easy distance
from the house, to serve as a place Of
refuge or shelter. The retreat should
be entirely under ground, with a roof
at least three fest thick, not rising above
the surface Of the earth, and entered
from the northern or eastern side. A
'cellafCave' may be constructed from
the cellar, if the house has one, as q
substitute for 'dugout,' 1t should be
excavated from the west wall of the cell
lar, toward the west, and should be
made as complete and secure as the
'dugsout.' If. however, the storm can
not be escaped, if no refuge is at hand,
or there is not time to get to it, the safest
thing to do is to place ones self against
the west wall of the cellar, face forward
or against the south wall, as near the
southwest corner as possible. The
northeast quarter is in any case fatal
position, and should always be avoided.
If one IS actually overtaken by the tor
nado, his only resource is to cast HIM
self face downward upon the ground,
with his head to the east and his arms
thrown over his head to protect it. If
q stump or large stone, or anything
heavy that the wind will not blow over,
is near, he may get trifle of protection
by throwing himself to the eastward of
it. If in house with no cellar, he
should get into the west room, on the
ground floor, if possible, and away from
all stoves and heavy furniture.

Why Can't a Woman be a Mason.

A lady friend of ours and wife of
brother in good standing has frequently
importuned us to disclose the reason
"Whv a woman couldn't be made Mas
on" We have thus far failed to comply
with the request, but happily find so
luton to the proposition in the following
from an address delivered by Major
Sherman at Austin, Nevada:
"Women sometime complain that they
are not permitted to join our lodge and
work with the craft in their labors, and
situation. We will explain the reason.
We learn that before the AL
mighty had finished his work he
was in some doubt about creating
Eve. The creation of every living
creeping thing had been accom-
plished, and the Almighty had made
Adam (who was the first Mason). and
created him for the finest lodge in the
world, and called it Paradise No. l..
He then caused all the beasts of the
field and the fowls of the air to pass be-
ore Adam for him to know them, which
was piece of work he had to do alone
so that no confusion might therefore
arise when Eve was created, whom he
knew would make trouble if she was
allowed to participate in it, if he Gre
ated her before hand. Adam, being
very much fatigued with the labors of
his first task, fell asleep, and when he
awoke he found Eve in the lodge with
him. Adam being Senior Warden,
placed Eve as the pillar of beauty, in
the south, and they received their iu-
structions from the Grand Master in
the east. which when finished, she i'm
mediately called the Craft, from labor
to refreshment. Instead of attending
to the duties of the office as she ought,
she left her station, violated the obi
cations, let in an expelled Mason, who
had no business there, and went around
with him, leaving Adam to look after
the jewels. This fellow had been ex-
PEELED from the Lodge, with several
others, some time before. But hearing
the footsteps of the Grand Master, he
suddenly took his leave, telling Eve to
go making aprons, as she and Adam
were not in proper regaIia. She went
and told Adam, and when the Grand
Master returned to the Lodge, he found
his gavel had been stolen. He called
for the Senior and Junior Wardens,
who had neglected to guard the door,
and found them absent After search
ing for some time he came to whore
they were hid, and demanded of Adam
what he was doing there instead of
occupying his official station. Adam
replied that he was waiting for Eve to
call the Craft from refreshment to
labor again: and that the Craft was not
properly clothed, which they were
making provisions for. Turning to
Eve, he asked her what she had TO Offer
in excuse for her unofficial and unma-
sonic conduct. She replied that a fell
low passing himself eff as grand Ice
turer, had been giving her instructions
and thought it was no harm. Tic
Grand Master then asked her what had
become of his gavel She said she
didn't know unless the fellow had
taken it away. Finding that Eve was
no longer trustworthy. and that she
had caused Adam to neglect his duty,
and had let in one whom he had ex-

Edwin Forrest in 1871.

Ben Perley Poore in Boston Budget
Edwin Forrest played an engage
ment at Washington IN January. 1871,
and large audiences went to see him,
partly out of curiosity and partly to
compare him with younger tragedians.
Although well advanced in the autumn
of life, he appeared somewhat as he had
q quarter OF Il century before. He was
heavy, imposing man, of large stature,
a good head, deeply engraved features,
q carriage OF dignity, and that great
voice, like the musical roll of bass
drum, which in its softer tones was ex-
quisite, and in its highest compass
was like lions roar. He was older,
and bestowed it in his legs, with their
lumpy and set muscles, destitute OF the
roundnes3 of youth, in the heavy eyes,
the smile which he appeared to lift to
his face with as much labor as the draw
ing of cool water from deep well, the
easy adaptability with which he as
sumed aged parts and his utter failure
to simulate youth. His Ha Met was a
noble recitation, but the reader was not
that young Danish prince.
The expectancy and rose OF the fair state,
The glass of fashion and the mold of form.
His Richelieu was vigorous and effec-
tive, but none familiar with the Richie
lieu of the portraits-the lean, wasted,
hollow-eyed man, whose will only is
unshriveled and undecayed rec
ognlze their ideal in this large actors
burly figure. He excelled at his time
of life in Othello and Lear, and in Vir.
ginius. His Othello was remarkable
impersonation, as fine and forceful as
he ever gave it in his best days. In
the camp scenes he was particularly
noble in air and attitude, and his man
agement Of the third act, where his
jealousy was aroused by Iago, might
have charmed Shakespeare himself As
the destiny Of the piece deepened, we
had some powerful sketches of passion,
and the large audiences-for he had
the most respectable ard thoughtful
classes as his auditors-expressed their
sense of interest by their nearly perfect
silence between the acts, and their
lengthening, straining faces.

Things III General.

The "Year Book" for 1885 places the
reserve of Great Britain, which the
Queen had just called into service, at
80, 953 of the first class and $3.50 of
the second class. The militia are 108,-
462 IN number.
Statisticians show that the wheat
trade of California, Oregon ard Wash
ington Territory with Europe give en-
ployment annually to more than 400
sailing vessels going round Cape Horn.
The average passage for each vessel is
about Is, 600 miles, IN an average time
of little over four months.
A correspondent of the Buffalo Ex-
press quotes Chicago business man as
saying: Chicago is mortgaged to the
East for over 800, 900, 00O Almost ev-
cry merchant has a mortgage on his
store and on his house also. There are
no second mortgages, because every
body gets mortgage for as much as he
can, and there is not enough left to put
a second mortgage on. The rate of in
terest is higher than it is at the East,
because the security is not SO good"
In the seventy years from 1916 to
1886 the number of persons emigrant-
ing from Great Britain was 1O,74s, 893
of whom 7,063, T80. or SIXTY per cent,
came to the United States; 1902, 62g
or ten per cent, to British North
America, and 1,74S, 221. or nearly TWEEN
ty per cent, to Australia and India.

Russia's Motive Tor War.

From the Philadelphia Evening Telegraph.
One evident and powerful reason why
Russia should urge war does not come
to the surface in the present entangle-
ments, but 1t is a most decided factor, in
the problem. At least as much of a
motive as Indian conquest is the desire
of the,throne and the nobility to secure
themselves through the exciting of a
general patriotic spirit. History has
shown before now that one of the sur
est antidotes to internal dissension Is
external diversion. With all the ha-
tired of the imperial power among a
large class of Russians. there is def
mite love of country which may be APP
pealed to forego its attacks uron home
interests in the face of national perils.
The game, to be sure, has sometimes
failed The Nephew OF his Uncle tried
it and went under in the process. But
it is possible Russian imperialism may
be more successful. 1t may not con-
quer England, but it may quiet Nihilism
and that, we may be suEe, is one of it's
chief objects i'll engaging in foreign
war

PEELED, the Grand Master closed the
lodge, and turning them out, set faith
full Tyler to watch the door with q
flaming sword. Adam, repenting Of
his folly, went to work like man and
a good Mason, in order to get reiustat-
ed again. Not so with Eve-she got
angry about 1t, and commenced rails
ing Cain.
Adam, on account of his reforma-
ton, was permitted to establish Lodges
and work in the degrees, and while Eve
was allowed to join him in acts of char
ity outside, she was never again to be
admitted to assist in the regular Lodge

Mrs.. GLADSTONE. wife Of The British

Mrs Gladstone, wife OF the British
Premier, recently paid visit of condo
lence to Lady Codrington, whose
daughter is the widow Of Gen. Earle,
recently killed near Abou Hame1. BY
some mistake Mrs Gladstone was an
nounced as Lady Gladstone; so,
supposing that she had to do with the
wife of the Premier's elder brother,
Lady Codrington received her. On dis
covering her mistake tile story goes that
Lady Codrington at once opened the
Walls of her wrath and poured forth the
contents freely. She declared roundly
that she considered Mrs. Gladstone's
call piece of gross impertinence and
charged Mr.. Gladstone with the muir
der of Earle, Of Gordon and of all the
other persons slaughtered in carrying
out the Egyptian policy of the govern
ment.

Improved Seed Corn.
From the Homo and Farm.

From the Home and Farm
All intelligent farmers know some
thing of the Importance of planting
good seed in raising the various crops
usually grown on the farm. One of the
first req uisites in the production of a
good crop of almost any kind is to use
coed seed. The corn crop in the United
States is of such vast importance that
the seed used in planting can hardly be
selected with too much care. Corn may
be vastly improved by mixing different
kinds together, and all that is necessary
to do this is to select any two kinds that
may be desired and plant the different
kinds in alternate rows, and at tasseling
time watch closely and cut out all the
tassels as soon as they are properly out
in all the rows you wish improved. The
ears on the mutilated stocks are then
necessarily fertilized by pollen from the
stalks in rows containing the other va
riety, hence the mutilated stalks yield
the improved corn. This in turn
may be mixed in a similar manner
the next year, with any other
variety, or any other variety mixed
with it that may be desired. Thus, by
a careful and Judicious selection of va
rieties best suited to climate and soil,
any planter may obtain the healthiest,
the most prolific, and in every way the
best variety, perhaps, it is possible for
him to get. As matter of course. this
whole process for Improvement should
be conducted on plat of land separat-
ed from where any other corn is grown,
sufficiently far us to insure an admixture
with it. 1 adopted the above plan
sometime ago, with a view to obtain an
improved variety, and am free to con-
fess that the result is somewhat sur
prising. l am unable to state with ac-
curacy the advantage theimproved va
riety has over the unimproved, but it
certainly is very considerable. Some
of my neighbors have obtained seed
from me, and are pleased with it. Try
my plan brother farmers, and have no
doubt it Will pay you largely.
