A beautiful glass bedstead, which was
exhibited at the Calcutta exhibition
and purchased for the king of Burmah,
seems to have raised desire in the
mind of another native millionaire in
this country to become possessed of
similarly beautiful article There has
been on view the latest specimen of a
work of art in the manufacture of glass
beds, which has been completed in
Birmingham. While following to a
great extent the pattern of the bed in
the exhibition, several improvements
have been introduced in the present
bed which give it more effective APP
pearance by the introduction of ruby
glass in several places, helping by its
contrast to display the beautiful work
of the purer crystal.
The legs and pillars which carry the
canopy, the head-rail and foot rail are
al OF solid glass, of faultless brilIiancy,
most richly cut and ingeniously fitted
together without the aid of any metal
supporters, which insures the brilliancy
of the pure crystal being shown to the
best advantage. The canopy is sur
rounded with ruby -colored velvet hang
ings, ornamented with crosses and
bosses in silver glass and surmOunted
by stars and crescents placed alternately,
the four corners being finished off with
terminals of ruby and cut glass. OF
course, no bed is complete without
mattress and pillows, which in this case
are made of ruby -colored silk velvet.

Cheaper. Than u Funeral.

New YORK Cor. Philadelphia Record
New York humanitarians figure out
that it would be cheaper to transport
children to rural homes and keep them
than it costs to bury them Excep-
tionally bad conditions of infantile life
in the metropolis result in an annual
loss of 3,427 children. The annual
losses from conquerable child mortality
are $2,57O,0 900. The interest on this
loss, it is estimated, would carry into
rural surroundings all the tenement
no Sc children who die under years of
age
The financial loss of childhood is not
the only loss. In 1888 every twelfth
commitment by the New York courts
was girl under 20 or q boy under II,
IN all ,liH, to say nothing of the large
number lodged IN correctional institu-
lions. The secretary of the National
r:son association says four-tifths OF the
conyicts of the country were born in
large towns and cities The argument
deduce / is that it will pay to transplant
that portion of city population which
sinks below certain level of morality
and ability to earn. But host of uues-
tons and difficulties at once arise.

The natronizing illusions to Lee

The patronizing illusions to Lee
and Jackson, made by Gen. Long
street in his late Century article,
have recalled the bon mot of Gen.
Richard Taylor. Touching the as
sertion that Longstreet had seen the
mistakes of Gettysburg before the
battle was fought and before Gen.
Lee had recognized them he said:
"Tho proposition that anything that
was obscure to Lee could be clear to
Longstreet is an amazing PROPOSE,
ton to any one who knew the two
men. Aud yet we have Biblical au
thority for the fact that the ange

before it was seen by its master"

There appears to be an epidemic
of strikes in this country at the
present time. Chicago had hardly
cot her car drivers strike quoted
down, and the strike Of all the mill
men in Pittsburg was barely settled,
when there was an outbreak at
Cleveland among mill men, and a
similar excitement at East Saginaw.
This is the natural result Of the hard
times. Whenever business Is dull,
manufacturers and other business
men cut down the pay of their en-
ployes, which creates discomfort.
and the result is strikes. Whatever
there is of wrong or injustice in the
acts of capitalists, it is rarely right.
cd by strikes, especially where the
strikers resort to violence, and The
latter, as a rule, gain but little, i
they do not lose by their action. L
is a pity that there cannot be some
tribunal for compromises organized
to which the employer and employe
could legally submit their differen
ces, and thus avoid not only tn
wrangling and the strife, but tn
necessary losses to both sides b.
these outbreaks.

Col. Frank A Burr, writing in the

| was somewhat surprised to find
that a magnificent American wine is
being made in large quantities from
the juice of the sweet oranges of
Florida, surprising in purity any of
the European wines. 1t is the best
tonic, medicinal or otherwise said
my friend, that can be taken into
the human system. 1t is nourishing,
of agreeable flavor, and, what is
more, perfectly pure native wine.
Everybody knows what recopera-
tive power there is in a luscious,
ripe, sweet Florida orange, and as
no part of the fruit is used in the
manufacture of the wine but the
pulp of perfectly ripe oranges and
none of the wine bottled from the

An Interesting Operation.

A reporter for the Charleston Sunday
Ne,ps witnessed yesterday a practical
administration of the new anaesthetic
cocain. The success of cocain as an
anRsthetic has been satisfactorily demon
strated, and that its use in certain opera.
tions possesses advantages over all other
anRsthetics IL shown by its almost uni
versnl adoption among the medical fra
teinity. The operation in which it was
used yesterday was the extraction of q
cataract from the eye Of q little colored
boy niue years old. 1t was performed
by one of the City Dispensary physicians.
About fifteen minutes before the com.
mencement of the operation three drops
OF two per cent. solution of the muriate
of cocian were placed in the eye. This
application was repeated five times at
intervals Of three minutes until the eve
had become completely insensible to the
touch. The patient was then told TO lie
down on table and the operation was
proceeded with. During the frat stage.

Cleveland and his Cabinet.

has been floating around the Senate
Chamber for several days past to the
