The Wyoming Outrage.

The Chinese are not lacking in shrewd-
ness. They are people who can anord
to wait for time 10 give them some re-
dress for wrongs which they may suffer.
member or tbe Chinese Legation at
Washington, a day or two ago, speaking
about the Rock Springs tragedy, in
! Wyoming Territory, said that 1t seemed
to him to be rather queer for the govern
ment to send troops TO the scene Of the
trouble to protect post-routes instead of
the Chinese. He particularly called
attention TO the third article of the treaty
between this countryA and China, in
which it is stated that the United
states will do any thng that 1t is possible
to do TO protect Chinese within their
borders.
This Chinese dfnlomatist intimated
pretty strongly that the Chinese Govern
ment had record of the number
Of the Cinnamon murdered in
this country, and that the day might
not be distant when mob in China might
massacre American residents. 1t com =
plant should be made, he sand, the record
OF the murder Of hundreds of Cinnamon in
the United States would be shown as an
Offset TO the outrages on American citi-
zens in China.
This being the condition of affairs,
American residents in China will have to
keep sharp lookout for their own safety.
China could hardly afford to sever her
friendly relations with a powerful gov
eminent like that Of the United States. 1t
is evident, however, that she does not
intend to submit without some sort of
protest to outrages on her citizens like
that in Wyoming Territory.
The people of the Territory are making
extraordinary efforts 10 capture the muir
derers OF the Chinese. The people of this
country will rejoice If they are all cap
tured and properly punished.

Ions per head for a population of
three and one third millions.
In order to store the large amount
Of water necessary to provide this
large daily supply during the dryer
months it has been found advisable to
provide, at first, one reservoir of very
large capacity, placed low enough in
the Croton valley to increase to 361. 80
square miles the available area of the
watershed of Croton River This res
voir is to have capacity of 3, 200, 900,
900 gallons-a body Of water which
would cover 400 acres ten feet deep.
The dam which is to form this res
ervoir (the Quaker-bridge dam), 17S
feet high above the bed of the river,
is to be built of solid masonry, and
the water behind it is to be III feet
deep AS the foundation of the dam
must be extended to the bedrock. a
distance of nearly 100 feet below the
bed of the stream, the total height of
the masonary structure will conse-
quently be not far from 800 feet for a
length of 400 feet in the deeper por-
ton of the valley. On both sides Of
this deeper portion of the rock bottom
rises gradually, and the total length
of the dam is to be about /, 800 feet.

Eyerybody's Air-Brake.

"Yes, sah," said Uncle Zach, "I'se
watched it forty years an its as [ SEE:
De fust of May an Christmas day of
de same year alters comes Oh de same
week day."
Further conversation proved Uncle
Zach most incredulous person. Chanc-
ing to mention DR.. Carver's feat of
breaking glass balls with a rifle, he
said:
Il herd bout shootin' and knowed
right off it wasn't souar'; dat was
Yankee trick boss sho's you BORN
'sWhat was the trick?"
"Dar wuz loadstone put Into de glass
balls, an likewise onto de bullets; SO
when de bullet fJ outen de gun, it an
de ball Jes drawed tergedder, which, ia
course, brokes de glass-dats de trick"
Later, Uncle Zach observed rope
running along the side CT the car.
''Boss, what's dat line fur?'
"Io apply the air-brake in case of &C
cldent." Then we had further to ex-
plain how the force of the brake was
obtained, to which Uncle Zach respond
ed:
''Look here boss, you sholy don't
'spect me to b'leeve dat foolishness?
Why, de biggest hurricane whatever
blowed couldn't stop dis train, runnin
forty mile hour. An you think I
gwine to b'leeve a little pipe full of
wind under de kyars can do it? No,
sah-ree.''
There are great many Uncle Zachs
who judge erything simply by ap-
pearances. The air brake does not seem
to be a very powerful thing, bit power
and efficiency are not necessarily equiv
alent to bigness and pretense.
Philip Beers, Esq, who resides at the
United States Hotel, New York city,
and is engaged in raising subscriptions
for the New York World Bartholdi
pedestal fund, was once upbraided by a
distinguished relative who was physi-
clan, for commencing in such enthusi :
astic terms, remedy that cured him of
brlght's disease eight years ago. He
said: "Sir, has the medical profession
with all it's power and experience of
thousands of years, anything that can
cure this terrible disorder?" No, no,
that is true, there is no mistake about
it but that Warmers safe cure is really
wonderfully effective preparation.
That remedy is an "air-brake" that
every man can apply and this fact ex-
plains why it has saved so many hun
dreds of thousands of lives.-Copy-

Sherldan's Leg Broken.

It is not generally known, even in
Washington, says correspondent Of
The st. Louis Globe-Democrat. that
Gen. Sheridan has been stumping
around on a broken leg. He has
managed to conceal the Injury well.
The overturning of his carriage while
on his recent trip to the We caused
an injury of which he did not even
know the real character until his rex
turn. The fracture was one of the
bones of the right leg below the knee,
and the discovery was made by an
army surgeon, for whona the general
sent after he came home. As Gen.
Sheridan positively declined to think
of laying up, a plaster Of paris mold
was made, in which his leg was in
cased. A jacket was made from this
mold, which the general still wears
He has been going around constantly
all the tinae, but, thanks to the jacket
his leg is nearly as well as ever. Gen.
Sheridan says he never spenta day in
bed from sickness in all mis- life. so
when the doctor suggested bed to him
he said he could not thiak CT it, even
to save his leg.

Sweet and Juicy Cantelopes.

"Cantelopes come next to water
melons in popularity as a summer
fruit" said a wholesale dealer to a
New York Mail and Express reporter,
as he opened barrel that had lust
arrived from Florida. 1.-THE season
has just opened. It is two weeks late.
and they sell rapidly. Cantelspes are
pulled when very green and then put
in crates and barrels and shipped on
freight trains to this city. They all
come from Georgia and Florida for
early use. Even with all the care to
pull them green many rlpen too fast
and perish on the way. Some eight
or ten thousand arrive daily when
the season is in full blast. As soon
as they arrive many OF them are
shipped to the fashionable watering
places, where they are in great de-
mand by the big hotels. They retail
now at from 30 to 70 cents
each, depending on the size.
By the wholesale they command
from IS to Sc per barrel or crate.
During one season the trade will
amsunt to several million dollars. In
midsummer cantelopes change their
names and are called muskmelons.
This is because they are larger and
more juicy. But we never count the
trade fairly opened until cantelopes
from all sections of the country come
and make things lively by competi~
ton. The dealers have a saying that
the sweet tooth will not be tickled I'M
til the Hackensack cantelopes arrive
in market. They are undoubtedly the
sweetest an! most juicy in the world.
They will not appear until the latter
part of July this year. 1t is not their
size but their peculiar saccharlne fas
vor that places the Hackensack cante-
lope ahead of the rest. The soil on
the Hackensack river is peculiarly
adapted for growing them, City
people at the watering places always
call for Hackensack cantelope. Thou
sands of them are shipped to Canada,
some to Nova Scotia, and many
thousands of them are consumed
daily in this city.

Captiyated the President.

Miss Lucy Buck, young lady OF
Front ROYAL, Va, recently wrote to
Grover Cleveland, asking silken
necktie for a crazy quilt, to be made
and sold for the benefit of the poor.
In reply she received a pleasant auto
graph letter from the President, in
closing an elegant tie, for the purpose
named Miss B. letter was charm
ingly written in verse. 1t was first
published in The Alexandria (Va.)
Gazette, and is as follows:

To bother you now, but I'm not to blame,
At least, not so MUCK, for Jack is the one

buy
The thing for himself, no matter how high
The price might Set-and so don t you see
If manage this plan how nice it will be?
Jack gives neat sum toward our fair for the
4 poor,
Receiving instead what he values far more,
And then, when marry dear Jack, it is plain,
I'll own both the quilt and memento again;
Now, dear Mr.. Cleveland, please won't you just
Your sister to send me- It's not much of task,
An old silken necktiei or handkerchief say,
Some fragment of what you've worn any day,
To lend TO my handiwork dignity dues
And then may the Fates NEST kindly help you
To piece as the patchwork you've taken in
hand,
Its iRtricate,patterns, at once small and grand
May each square that's fashioned with infinite
art,
Glow with the tints truth and wisdom impart
I'LL the national crazy-patch, crazy no more,
FLOWS into symmetry ne er known before
And still something better wish you may win

Sleeping-ROOm Draperies, Curtains
and Carpets.
DR.. S. W. Bowles, in Good Housekeeping,

Dr. S. W. Bowies, in Good Housekeeping.
Bearing in mind the danger from
fouled air, we should exercise care in
excluding from our bed rooms all
hanglngs or curtains of wooden or
thick cotton materials, as especially
liable to retain dirt and disease germs,
and IN this category I would include
carpets made of wooden or cotton.
Hard wood. floors, Oil cloth, straw mats
ting, IN the order named, are certain
ly the best materials for use, if we
study simply health. If for other
reasons we wish the warmth and di>
minution Of noise, procured by using
wooden or cotton carpets, lay over the
first named material rugs that can be
readily removed and cleansed outside
of the room. Linen shades to exclude
or mitigate the light the windows,
with lace or muslin curtains for esthe>
tic effects, and all that is allowable ia
bed room. Of equal importance is
the proper care of the bed and bedding.
Bedsteads are usually made of wood.
Metal is in every way preferable. a
wrought iron or brass bedstead prop
erly constructed; that is of light
weight, mounted on castors, so as to
be easily moved and readily cleaned,
meets every demand Especially
should we seek one readily moved, if
we would haveit and it's surroundings
properly cared for by servants. No
articles of whatever kind should be
kept under the bed. To prevent this,
dispense with 'valances" and tuck in
the bed clothes. Curtains about the
bed are simply filters, sure to catch
and retain the impurities as the air
from the lungs passes through them.
The mattress should be made of elastic
material not giving way too freely 10
the weight of the body. Horse hair
furnishes the best materials; cotton,
wool or feathers the poorest substi~
tute. A well-made hair mattress,
resting on woven wire spring mat
tress, leaves nothing to be desired
hygienically. Hair pillows pre-.
ferable to feather pillows where we
desire to prevent heating the head.
Linen is the better material for sheets
and pillow cases, having less power Of
absorption than cotton. Blankets
should be all wool and of the best
quality attainable, as in this way we
obtain maximum of warmth and
minimum of weight. For the same
reasons cotton comfortables are not
desirable.

FASHION NOTES.
From Godey's Lady's Book for Angus

From Godeys Lady's Book for August.
Beaded bonnets are obsolete.
Mitts are ugly, except ON beauti-
full hand.
White China silk is worn with sill
yer braiding.
AS a rule, hats for the seaside are
eccentric and fantastlcal in the ex-
IRENE.
Cant de suede gloves, in various
shades of buff, are still worn with all
toilets.
The new cambrics and batistes very
much resemble foulards, both in colors
and patterns.
Wooden lace is in greater vogue
than ever, it is used to trim every
thing, even bonnets.
Parasols are prettier and more ele,
CANT than ever. Lace is extensively
used to ornament them.
Embroidered silk gloves are the
latest. The white ones are particu-
larly pretty and very much worn.
Green is a very fashionable color
the favorite shades are lizard, absin-
the, caartreuse, and malachite.
The rage for beads continues; the
most novel are the leaden ones which

Plated skirts are still worn; but

more novel and fashionable.

aressy and elegant toilets.
Feathers are but little worn this
summer; few birds are to be seen,
however, nesting in bow of ribbon.
The round hats of young girls are
not unlike the capote in shape and
style, the border wider, protruding
over the face.
Apple-red is the name of a new
shade IN net yelling. 1t is soft and
pretty, and throws a becoming shade
on the complexion.

So Far And No Farther,
Merchant Traveller

A gruff, ugly tempered man was
having his shoes shined by boy on
the street, and after stormy time the
boy reported the job as complete.
Got 'em done, eh?" said the man.
Yes, SIR"
How much?n
''Ten cents, SIR"
''Ten cents? Well, its enough.
I'll bet dollar you've got EN- shined
half way to my knees" and he hand
ed over the cash, which the boy took,
remarking as he got out of the way:
What yer givin' US? There amt
nothin' about you that'd take any
polish 'cept your shoes, and you have
to git that from a bootblack."

That SO apparently slight change
IN fashions as the abolishment of
feathers as an ornamentation for hats
and 5onnets may lead to distress and
suffering among the poor Is illustrat-
ed by the fact that within the past
few weeks ever four thousand WON
en-, hitherto employed in the feather
business in New York, have been
thrown out of employment.
