The change from Arthur to Glove. land is not m agreeable one 10 socieTy in Washington, Mir Arthur led q luxurious and elegant lie there, set- tng an example that was pleasing to the people with plenty of money who like expensive social pleasures. Mir
 Cleveland is man of palmer tastes and more serious mind. Apparently he cares nothing for society that is, for the people whose greatest enjoy meut is touad in giving dinners to one another, and in meeting together to dance and show themselves in fine raiment, President Cleveland jars rudely upon the delicate feelings of this class, by rising early, break fasting at tho unearthly hour of eight, working at bis desk in bjs shrt-Sleoges, sending out invitations to his recep- tions printed upon common note paper with type-writ;E, lind by gen erally conducting himsShiu defiance of the customs of the ssiss soeracy. On the whole it is satislact,rS to have a man of this some-wha4 type in the White House SSadiety" is all very well in Us way, t 1t is apt to magnify it's important and to deceive itseifinto the belief ylaa the amuse. ments of life are worthy Jfbeing made the serious business cfexistence. The chatter of a press that 6nds profit in ministering to the vanity of it's read CTS has had great deal to do with giving society people an erroneous notion of their consequence. APres. ident who regards it as no part of his duty to please society by ordering his life in accordance with its usages, is a benefaction to millions of poor snobs, who have made themselves miserable by bard struggle to keep up fash lonabie appearance on an income of unfashionable slze, Mir Cleyeland's 5 example will give many of these un- fortunates the courage to quit their foolish race with their richer neigh hors and t will comfort a still larger class who are given to sneering at a mode of l!fe which they are by nature, education and want of means uniitted to enjoy The presidential example. too, will give text to clergymen and Democratic editors, from which to preach improving sermons on the duty and beauty of plain living It would do the country no harm, either, to take these sermons to heart.

Upon entering the office the visitor sees in the glass par tition before him four windows, wiah a silver plate over each.

A Cariositr

. Among Typographical curiosities, one ofthe best.isto be seen by making a visit to Secretary Treasurer Rastall's oi'ioe. oiH In 1854, a printer :a the regu- lar army, stationed at Fort Ripley, Minnesota Territory, on leave of ab- senee from the fort, became intoxica. ted and lost his way in the woods, He was afterwards found, badly frozen, and returned to the fort, where it be- came necessary 10 amputate both his legs,
 While convalescing, anu to while away the tedium of enforced idleness. he had four pine boards brought to hlm, and with a jaek-knife he whit- tied the faee of the boards to produce four pages of a newspaper, which be called The Bombshell. The body type is about Double Great Primer in size, three columns to the page. The con tents are mainly of humorous char acter, though portion of il gives tho latest news from tie Crimean war.
 The printer made his own wooden legs, and when he could walk about on them, he in some manner manu- factured ink, and with an army blan- ket and planer and mallet he printed a number of this quaint conceit This particular copy was presented to the Union by Mir Horace G. Broughmau, of the Daily News It is placed Tn double glass frames for preservation, and is well worth seeing. Inland

Miss R. E. Cleveland, who will prob ably be the mistress of the White House for the next four years, Is thir- ty.eight years old, In looks, Miss Cleveland reminds one of Anne Dick inson; perhaps because she wears her hair in the same style.

It was understood years ago that the Turcomaus should be regarded as under Russian influence and the Afghans as under British influence, but it never seems to have been final ly established where the line between the two should be. The Afghans and the British would fix it at the line of hills eighty miles north of Herat, while the Russians and Turcomans want 1t fifty miles further south, so as to in cluae certain fertile plains and salt beds for their cattle. It would hardly seem as though the boundary between these barbarians need be marked by blood, but if Russia pushes on En- gland will have to fight to save her inAunnce and possessions in India

Dr. Guersen, the murderer who was hanged in Philadelphia the other day, had an ingenious arrangement to en- ahle him to read at night. As there was neither a gasjet nor a lamp al. lowed Tn his cell, he was obliged to de- wise some means to aid him to pass away the time in reading. He ob- tained a sheet of tir, and, after bright ening it, he placed it outside his win dow at suen an angle as to catch tho rays of light from gas lamp in the kitchen yard, sixty feet away. These rays were then concentrated inside of his cell by means of magnitying glass, and by placing his book or pa per near the glass he obtained enough light to read by.--Toronto Globe.

THE ACQUITTAL OF ANOTHER HIGHLY EMO
TIONAL MURDERESS.
Paris Letter to London Truth
Together with the Van Zandt riots the great
topic OF the week has been the trial of Nine
Francey, an enigmatical provincial virago, who
last December shot an architect named Brise-
bard, firing one ball at him in her drawing room
at Tonnerre, and following him to the garden
gate to finish him with two other balls. The
trial took place at Auxerre, but the crime, like
that Of Nine. ClOvis-Hugues' and of half a dozen
other vitriol-throwers and femmes de revolver
interested the Parisians particularly, owing to
its peculiar actually. The woman who takes
the law in her own hands in order to avenge
her honor Is thoroughly modern type. AS a
chapter of the provinciallife the drama Of Ton
nerre is profoundly interesting, and among the
witnesses there were characters which Would
have delighted Balzac; for instance. an asth-
matte gentleman, whose malady caused him to
get up three or four times in the night open
the window Of his chamber, and surprise
the secrets of nocturnal rendezvous. Nine
Francey Is an unsympathetic and pretentious
creature, whose crime seems due to a sort of
mental arrangement which might be called
Ia Jolie dimitation; the garlands and flowers sent
to Mime. ClOvis-Hugues turned her head, and
she seems to have desired to have her portrait
too, published in the newspapers. Her victim
the architect Brisebard, whom she accuses OF
having attempted to dishOnOr her, is q still
the debauched village Don Juan, a satyr Of the
nastiest kind. After all the evidence, there re-
mains certain mystery; it is doubtful whether
Nine Francey shot Brisebard merely because
he was brutal, or because he possessed some Sc
cret at any rate, she premeditated her crime
and enticed her victim into an ambush, But i'm
spite OF all this the jury acquitted her. Why?
because the French law offers in such cases no
alternative but acquitta1 or the galleys. The
complex and attenuated crimes due to that
modern flower Of delicate culture, la neurose as
the doctors call 1t, find no corresponding PEN
aities In the code. The old mother Of Brisebard
who was supported by her son, demanded dam
ages. The jury which had just estimated the
honor OF Nine Francey as being worth the life
mad experienced at the moderate sum of $500 |!

Perfumes and Distinction.
IN the Gentleman's Magazine.


Prof Mantegazzi found that nearly all the
essences used in perfumery, and many others
not appropriated by the perfumer, when ex-
posed to air and light, develop ozone. He says
that the oxidation OF these essences is one of
the most convenient means of producing ozone
since, even when in very minute quantity,
they can ozonise large quantity of oxygen,
while their action is very persistent; that in the
greater number of cases the essences, in
order to develop ozone, require the direct
rays OF the sun; in small number of cases
they effect the change with diffused light:
In few or none in darkness" Even a YES
sci that has been perfumed with an
essence and afterwards washed and dried,
still develops ozone, provided O slight
odor remains. The most effective essences are
those Of cherry, laurel, palma rosa, cloves, Law
ender, mint, Juniper, lemons, fennei and berga-
mot the less effective are anise, nutmeg, cafe
put and thyme. Mantegazzi adds that scam
phor, as an ozonogenic agent, is inferior to any
OF the above named essences" These facts
should be better known than they are Our
grandmothers used perfumes as disinfectants.
and ozone being the most effective of oxidizng
disinfectants it appears that they We're right.
In the east, where there is much need for at
mOSpher1c publication, the old faith in per
fumes still remains. With us it is now generally
supposed that such perfumes merely hide the
malodour and deceive us, but If Mantegazzi and
Or; Anders are right, this modern notion is q

1t was once much debated question whether

earlier periods every man was six feet upward

came can he Win tn Its measuring apparatus they had

giants are exceptional in a very peculiar sense
among people not distinguished for more than
average stature as among the taller nations. A
Scotch professor once fell on the plan Ofmeasur-
ing all his students and noting their nationali-
ties, that so that he might get some idea as to
which of the peoples were the tallest He found
that Americans, especially those from the west,
were first in this odd competition, Irishmen
next, the Scotch next and the English shortest

Finding q Long Lost Brother.

BROKEN DOWN IN PARIS AFTER FIFTEEN
YEARS OF CRIME.
Mrs. Angus Cameron, in st. Louis, has just re-
cefved letter from brother whom she has
believed to be dead for thirteen years. Twenty
six years ago Mrs. Cameron, then Miss Annie
Gill, came to this country with Duncan Gill,
her brother. They lived in New York for a
time, afterward going to Chicago and finally to
San Francisco, from which place they were cor
respondents to foreign periodicals, though they
had considerable wealth. Angus Cameron, for
whom Mr.. Gill felt an intense hatred, came to
San Francisco from Dumfres, Scotland, fifteen
years ago. and year later, upon his marriage
with Miss Gill, the latter's brother became so
angry that he attempted to kill Mr.. and Mrs.
Search was made for him everywhere, and a
few weeks later, on finding corpse in the
Sangre de CriStO mountains which seemed to be
his, the search was abandoned. In the grave of
her supposed brother Mrs. Cameron buried all
of her resentment. A few months ago Mr.
afterward came to st. Louis. The letter which
just came from her brother, stated that he was
playing the role OF a cripple in variety theater
in Paris for something less than 50 night. He
says that he is thoroughly penitent and beg
glng his sisters forgiveness, he entreats her to
country. In the narrative which he gives of
his life since ne left San Francisco, he says that
he went from there to Mexico, where he be-
came a brigand and made a fortune out of
plumber. He lived an uninterrupted life of VIC
lence until the rebellion of Arab Pasha, where
he lost an arm and leg in the service of the
British army. He closes his pathetic letter by
saying: My strong will is broken and will
be clay, henceforth, in your hands," Mrs.
Cameron Will go to him at once.
