Further SpecuIations as to the strelok's

New YORK, April so The arrival OF the
Russian man-ofwar Ssrelok in the North

as to its object. A prominent shipping man
said: 'TE is more than probable that the
Strelok has received secret orders that war

days and has been ordered to pick up

Charles Henderson, Philadelphia
florist, says that the ventilation of a
greenhouse has more to do with the
health of its contents than any other
one cause. This is particularly true
of roses. If air is given in rose
house day and night during July and
August, there will be little trouble
with mildew, rs the cool night air and
the action of the wind all tend to
tougher the fiber OF the wood and
leaves, and give strength OF constitu-
ton to the whole plant, SO that when
the spores OF mldeW and other fungoid
diseases strike. they do not take root,
but glance off harmlessly from the
hardened and fortified foliage.

William d. Howells, who welded
the sister of Larkin G.. Mead, the
sculptor, divides his time between lit
erature and his family. He is so much
in love with his wife that some of his
friends say he sees in her all the fine
varieties of her SEX and from her he
fashions his interesting heroines, look
ing at her from different angles. He
does not need, like Goethe, Belzac and
so many literary artists, to WOO wo-
men in order to pluck out the mystery
of their hearts for the embeliishment of
his fiction. To him his wife is repre-
sentative of whatever is womanly in
woman. This is the loftest idealiza-
ton OF marriage.
Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett, the
novelist, differs from the most nom
literary wives in the circumstance that
she Is conspicuously- might say
foolishly-in love with her lord They
are as intimate in every respect as they
can be; they have no thought OF feel
ing that they do not share They
might be termed q connubial pair of
spoons. The late H. H., Mrs. Helen
Hunt, whose second husband was Will
liam 5. jackson, had many of the traits
ascribed to genius, but Indifference to
her husband was not one of them.
They were very fond of one another,
and he was always her last court of
appeal. The same might be said of
Julian Hawthorne, j. w. De Forest,
Mark Twain (Ciemens), Charles Dud-
ley Warner, OF almost any writer. If
there has ever been time when ink
caused matrimonial discord it has long
gone by, especially in this country
Edmund Clarence Stedman, who
made Il love-match when a mere boy,
running away with pretty girl. who
had fascinated him, has kept up the
romance ever since, and he is now, al
though comparatively young, grand
father. He does not, after the manner
OF many singers, reveal all his poetry
to the outside world and preserve his
prose for indoors employment. What
ever he writes his wife hears first, and
she is, he says, his gentlest and yet his
most exacting critic.
Harriet Prescott (Spoford) has writ
ten from her early girlhood, change of
circumstances having thrown the sup
port of the family mainly upon her.
A poet and a genius, she might be
thought to be one of those wayward,
emotional, inconsistent creatures who
could never possess permanent feeling
and who could be constitutionally in
capable of true Wifehood. But the
fact is that she is domestic to the
core. She and her husband, Richard
S. Spotford, went to school together,
were in love with one another as girl
and boy, and are as much in love to-
day as when they were in their teens.
Her nature is wholly monandrous.
She thinks there is but one man in the
world-indeed, there is but one for her
and that man is her husband. She
IS never quite content in his absence
and welcomes him on his return as
she probably did when he first declared
his love. And he, too, is literary,
though he seldom writes, having the
duties of his profession to engross his
time Ihey are an idyllic couple in
their affections, dyed though they be
in ink. Philadelphia Times.

In 1881. another celebrated man visi-
ted us. He was Louis Kossuth, the
Hungarian patriot. The exiled chief
tain was rendered u formal reception
by each House of Congress on separate
days, and the crowd was so great in
the Senate Chamber (now the Supreme
Court room), that the newspaper re-
porters voluntarily relinquished their
seats in order TO make room for the la
dies. This act of gallantry was deemed
so remarkable that special mention
was made of it in the official record of
debates.
The Congressman also gave Kossuth
an elegant banquet, at which General
Cass, Daniel Webster and other distin-
guished statesmen made addresses. 1t
was at this banquet that Kossuth deliy-
cred the speech which opened with the
famous parallel between the Senate of
Rome and the American Congress.
L was also present in the House of
Representatives on the occasion of the
welcome to foreign guest, and this
time it was King. In 1874 the King
OF the Hawaiian Islands visited this
country. The dominion of that mno-
arch is not very extensive; still he was
regarded as q distinguished parsonage.
When he came to Washington, both
Houses resolved to accord him a recep-
ton. 1t was not so very much of q
ceremony, but in one respect it was
entirely novel. According to the re-
marks OF Speaker Blaine, King Kalua-
kaua was the first reigning monarch
that ever had set foot upon our shores;
hence his arrival created quite stir.
year or so later, the Emperor of Bra
iii paid us visit; and since that time
we have opened the doors of hospitality
to other titled folks. But King Kalua-
kaua is entitled to the credit of having
set them an example. Edmund Aiton,

The Washington Capital gives ro-

1t says that Attorney General Brewster
on retiring from the Cabinet left only
one request to his successor. This was
for the retention of female clerk. Ac-
cording to this story, MI. Brewster
early in life proposed to young wo-
man and was refused. After the lapse
of many years, on b coming Attorney
General, he received letter of con
graduation from the lady, who was at
this time Il widow in reduced circum-
stances. He secured her appointment
to a clerkship in his department, and
left a request with his successor that
she should not be disturbed.

Americans Rushing to the Cities.

Population seems to seek its kind,
and such Inducements as our cities af-
ford prove too attractive for the rural
population. In 1880 only one-ninth of
the population OF Minnesota lived in
cities. If the state census Just pub
lished, may be credited, one-fifth of
her present population lives in cities.
Speaking roundly, it may be said that,
in 1890, one-thirtieth OF the population
OF the United States was found in cities
OF more than 5000 population; in 1SOO
one-twentytifth; in 1910, and also in
1920, one-twentieth; in 1880, one-six-
teenth; in 1910, one-twelfth; in 1850
one-eighth; in 1860, one-sixth; in 1870,
more than one fifth, and 1880, halfway
between one-tifth and one-quarter.
The tendency OF modern civilization is
to amass population. The strong lights
and shadows of our cities, the love of
society, the satisfaction of better shell
ter, better roads, stronger institutions,
lead men to crowd together, when I'M
able to be anything but dependents in
the system to which they unite them
selves.-Fhiladel23ht0 Press.

InIelible Ink for Paper.

Its indelibility depends on the fact
that when bichromate of potassium and
gelatine come together, particularly in
the form of thin film, in the presence
OF daylight, the film becomes insoluble
in hot or cold water. A good formula is
the following: Gelatine = grs., bichro-
mate of potash grs., nigrosine, 10 grs.,
water l fl. or. Dissolve the gelatine and
nigrosine in most of the water, and the
bichromate of potassium in the remain

coIorcd bottle. If it is found that the
Ink gums in the pen. the quantity of
gelatine and bichromate may be some
what reduced. But the ink, when prop.
erly made, and dry, cannot be entirely
removed from paper by hot or cold water,
acids, or alkalies.

Structure of the Mole.

Doctor Merriam, in his work on the
mammals of the Adirondack region, de-
scribcs the mole and it's remarkable con-
structiou for digging, and says; The
notification of structure that adapts
this animal to its peculiar mode of life
affords most remarkable example of
animal specialization. The conical head,
terminating i'll a flexible cartilagnous
snout, and unencumbered with external
ears or eyes to catch the dirt, constitu-
ties az effective wedge in forcing it's way
powerful har DIS, whose fingers are united
nearly to their very tips and armed with
long and stout claws, supply 'he means
by which the motive power is applied,
and serve to force the earth away later
ally to admit the wedge like head; while
the apparent absence Of neck, due to the
connection with the shoulder girile, the
retention Of the entire arm and forearm
with the skin, the short and compact
body, and the covering of soft, short,
and glossy fur tend to decrease to min
imum the FRACTIONAL resistance against
the solid medium through which it
moves. In fact, it presents most ex-
traordnary model of a machine adapted
for rapid and continued progress through
the earth.
"The mole does not, and cannot, dig
a hole in the same sense as other NAM
mails that engage in this occupation,
either in the construction of burrows or
in the pursuit of prey. When fox or
woodchuck digs into the ground, the
anterior extremities are brought forward,
downward, and backward, the plane of
motion being almost vertical; while the
mole, on the other hand, in making its
excavations carries it's hand forward
outward, and backward, so that the
plane of motion is nearly horizontal.
The movement is almost precisely like
that of man in the act of swimming,
and the simile is still closer from the
fact that the mole brings the backs of
his hands together in crying them for
word, always keeping the palamer sur
face outward and the thumbs below.
Indeed, when taken from the earth and
upon hard floor, it does not tread upon
tho palmar aspect of its forefeet as other
animals do, but runs along on the sides
of it's thumbs, with the broad hands
turned up edgewise."
