The position of Harper's Young People as
the lrading'weekly perio lical for young read
ers is well established. Tho publishers spare
i've reading and illustrations. The serial and
short stories have strong and dramatic inter
est, while they are wholly free ~ IN whatever
is pernicious or vulgarly sen sationai; the pa.
pers on natural history and science, travel
and the facts Of life, are by writer's whose
names give the best assurance of accuracy and
value. Illustrated papers on athletic sports,
games and pastimes give full information oil
these subjects. There is nothing cheap about
il but its price.

WEEKLY.

The Weekly Union, which is the best paper
of its class ever published in Tennessee, is a
complete and reliable compendium of the
home and foreign news of the week. Special
attention is paid to its features of late and
accurate market reports and an industrial
and agricultural depart ment carefully pre-
pared for each issue, and printed and mailed
the day on which it is dated. The Weekly
Union is in these respects equal to any of the
agricultural papers, and the farmer and cOun-
try readers will find that it gives more variety
and better news than can any OF the one
idea or one department par ere. The price
of The " eekly Union is 81 year, and mo-
where else can those who are not conveniently
situated as tOa daily receive as much valua-
BILE information for that amount.
Sample copies can be obtainedby application
personally or by letter.
In view of the fact that The Union has
doubled its capacity for furnishing its readers
with news matter it finds it necessary to re-
turn to its original scale of prices.

ADELINA PATTI.

Leading Pr1ma. Donna of the Age.
 In 1876 Patti was divorced in France from her husband, the Marquis de Caux, to whom she had been married eight years before. Being at liberty under the French law to marry again, she has espoused Nicolini, who has been her husband for years. So far as is known to the writer, she has now complied with all statutory requirements making her wifehood to the Italian unquestionable in whatever country she and he may happen to be- Patti's residence is in Wales, where she owns beautiful country seat, and where she will have been again married before this ar ticle shall have reached it's readers.
 The great singer, Adelina Maria Clorinda Patti, was born in Madrid, Spain, forty-three years ago of Italian parents. Her mother was prima-donna and her father also pro- fessional vocalist. When Patti about year old her father and mother made their residence in New York, where she received her education and made her debut. To Maurice Strakosch is due the honor of pre- pairing her for the operatic stage. She was only sixteen when she made her first appear ance in public as Lucia in Donizetti's ''Lucia di Lammermoor. It's result was encoura- ging. Her career from that time has been brilliant success, and she enjoys undisputed pre-eIninence among the greatest female sing CTS of the age. It was in 1870 somewhat earlier that she first became acquainted with Nicolini, who sang tenor in the company to which she belonged, then performing in St. Petersburg.
 Every reader has heard something of the muni6cence with which the favorites of the opera are treated by the rich and great. Pat ii is wealthy and the owner of splendid jew elry in abundance In 1870 she received the Order of Merit from the Emperor of Russia. She speaks of New York as her home and it may be doubted whether she is anywhere more liberally treated than by the citizens of the commercial capital of the great republic.

COMMUNICATIONS.
Three Points.

Ihfe0 FO1n9Ss
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
 Three most important proposals have been made almost simultaneously having bear ing upon the discussion about the State House.
 l. It has recently been proposed by MT. Zunder and other gentlemen entirely respon- sible and having the confidence of all parties that the repairs of the building be permitted to be done at private expense for the use of the public.
 3. A most important proposition for the industrial training and development of young mechanics in mechanical engineering and the industrial arts has been made by MT. R. H. Brown. It is the most useful and practi- cal proposal that has been made since Prof. Blake's sadly misunderstood and most excel lent beginning was made in the same direc- tion. If it can be carried out it will place New Haven schools on an equality with those of Worcester, St. Louis, Cincinnati and New York, and make the average Con necticut man, "..already recognized abroad as the most fruitful industrial thinker in ex istence, still more competent than ever be- fore to lead the world in mechanical inven- ton and high grade workmanship in all the industrial arts. It is prize worth working for. There are no mines of any sort so rich ly worth working those in the brains of the young and advancing generations of the boys who are to be the Connecticut men" of the future. MT. Brown suggests that a temporary home for 8 practical school of in strGction such as he suggests might be found in this building.
 3. The suggestion of the young lady short hand writer in this mornings paper comes very directly to the point. An art and indus trial school for the girls where all the gram mar schools in time could be instructed an hour or two every week, and where a grand exhibition at the end of the year could be held, is worthy supplement to MT. Browns suggestion for the boys
 Her other suggestion about the taking down the iron fence around the Green and making broad mall under the two rows of trees around the Green h also particularly worthy of the attention of the city govern ment.
 So these serious, sensible and we'll thought out propositions immediately dispose of all the idle chatter about there being no use for this building and that the city can't bear the expense of repairing it.
 To send to popular vote 8 complicated proposition like that involved in considera- tions bearing upon the repair or the dest1uc- tion of this building is to ask ten or twelve thousand voters to dispose of matter which they can't spare time to study just because si1ty-one members of tue city government find it 8 little inconvenient to spare their time to study it and decide it fairly Even when they have promised to do so by accept ing the offices to which they have been elect ed, shall we consider the tendency to do this the result of lAziness, or cCwardice, or incom petencya We must not think these things of anyone till we are compelled to explain conduct otherwise not to be understood.

mandrel. When the pipe thus made has inside is covered with a kind of enamel the nature of which comprises the main secret of the invention, and is therefore not made known. The outside is painted with asphalt and dusted over with sand. It is stated that such pipe will resist some two thousand pounds internal pressure, though the thick ness of the stuff is only abont one-half inch.
 A Berne newspaper reminds the Swiss peo- pie that the 8th of August next will be the Tooth anniversary of the first successful as- cent of Mont Blanc, after many failures dur ing the preceding forty-fve years. Jacques Ba1mat, chamois hunter, succeeded in June, 1786, in reaching the 'Grand Plateau" 12,- 900 feet above the level of the sea, the high est point reached up to that time in Europe. He spent the night there, going through un paralleled exertions to save himself from be- ing frozen. Next morning, although he was compelled to abandon the attempt climb higher, he ascertained, he considered, how the ascent might be made and on the follow ing 9th of August, accompanied by Dr. Pac- card, he realized his expectations. The news that Mont Blanc had been sealed created great excitement. Next year the celebrated Horace Benedict Saussure took the matter up in the interest of science, and after some dis appointments reached the summit of the mighty mountain on August 2, 1787, an event which led to most important series of discoveries in almost every branch of physics.

wherever she went" ''I remember" said the other, land one day she went to Brattie street to get dress that had been dyed, and the dyer told her that he could not hide some spots. She held it to the light and said in her tragic tone, 'Spots what spotss I see no spots!' and the man came near fainting. An! she was an actress and where will you find such to-day? Show me one." When they got down to actors succeeding them I was at home, but let them do all the talk ing. They at last got to talking about the old Warren theater. Something" said one, happened there one night that I we'll re- member. Let me see, the play was 'Victo- rine, or I'll Sleep on It, and it was where a marquis sent letter to Victerine, who was betrothed to good young man, to discard him and he would load her with favors-a bad chap you see-and she put it under her pillow to dream on it. Then the dream was all acted out on the stage. She took the marquis, but after while he left her and she was brought to poverty. One night the marquis went out and some one rushed in and stabbed him, leaving the dagger in the wound and Victoria, who had heard it all, came and drew out the dagger, when po- iceman nabbed her, saying: You did it!' There were three men o'warsmen in the pit, and one of lem jumped up yelling out: "Tis dashed lie! She didn't do it. I saw an other one stick him and, dash him, he de- served it. After some confusion the play went on and Jack had the satisfaction to see that it all came out right. Those were the days of the drama" It was treat to listen to them

French and English Saws.


 We English seem to have selected the mouse as an emblem in our GAS dumb as a mouse;" the French have preferred glass, for they say ':As dumb as glass" We say as ''Deaf as post;' the French, ''As deaf as pot" ''As dull as ditch water'' Galli- cized becomes "As sad as a nightcap." "Don't count your chickens before they are matched" is changed into "Dont sell the skin of bear before having killed it.' h. stead of "Biting off ones nose to spite ones face," a similarly useless experiment is illus trated by Splitting in the air that it may fall on ones nose" The self-evident impossibil- ity in the words ''You can't get blood out of stone" is represented by "One could net comb thing that has no Lair" (This last also "goes without saying" which as literal ly translated from the French now forms a proverb in our own language.)

THIS IS A FREE COUNTRY. THE Boy
 corr ATTACKS FREEDOM.

Il N
 There is avery stringent Sunday law in Mas sachusetts. It forbids keeping open shop, warehouse or workhouse," doing 'tany man. ner of labor, business or work, except works of necessity and charity" the "taking part in any sport, game or play" the "discharging any firearms for sport or in the pursuit of game," the "attempting to take or catch any fish, and good many other things, among which is all unnecessary travel.
 It is perhaps needless to say that the Mas sachusetts Sunday law is not and has not been for long time enforced with any more stIictness than the Sunday law of Connecti- cut. But an attempt has recently been made to compel the barbers of the State to close their shops on Sunday, and the at tempt has called attention to the law and the facts. It is discovered that if the law is en- forced great change will have to be made. Not less than 115, IT'S of the inhabitants of Massachusetts are engaged in employments in which Sunday work is done. A large number of these Sunday workers are en- gagged in transportation. There are 375 rail road stations opened on Sunday in Massa- chusetts, while 461 men are needed to run Sunday trains To keep the horse cars in movement 2,05s men have to violate the law. Some 300 telegraph and telephone of fees are open on Sunday, employing proba- ply twice that number of operators. The Boston Record says: Here in Boston the Sunday newspapers, requiring the work of hundreds of men to produce, are delivered by ,250 carriers and sold by 400 newsboys. In the summer season, the hsrbor excursion boats carry about 5000 people every Sun day on the round trip. The milk wagons, the ferries, the towboat and pilotboat ser vice, railroad mail and postoffce, custom house and quarantine, the bakeries and apothecary stores, the electric light compa- nies, with many others, swell the total to the figure given.
 It is probable that Sunday is pretty per manently tbroken" in Massachusetts, and that any attempt to revive the old Sunday law will not be conspicuous success. Times have changed, if not for the better, and many of the people of Massachusetts will continue to read, ride and be shaved on Sunday.

One result of the enforcemsnt of the Iowa prohibition law is druggists circular with 8 list of forty-two kinds of liquor, which may be had by signing statement that the buyer is not drunkard and will use the fluid only for necessary medicine.
 The refusal of some members of Massa- chusetts militia company to ride upon some street cars when on their way to State camp of instruction because the railroad was boycotted is not very pleasant incident. These ''soldiers' should be immediately dis charged from the service of the State.
 The Caucasian manufacturers of cigars in San Francisco use white label to enable the public to distinguish between cigars made by white and by yellow labor. The Chinese now purchase the white labels at s3 per hun dred and affix them to their boxes and the public cannot tell the difference. The Chi nese are evidently too "smart" to be allowed to live in this country.
 MT. Powderly, General Secretary Turner and Director Hayes, who ought to have known what the policy of the Knights of Labor is, says that there will probably be no more strikes or boycotts. If there are not it will be better for all concerned. The strikes and boycotts which have been so frequent this year have done great deal of harm and very little good.
 Some voluminous resolutions in opposi- ton to union with the Knights of Labor were yesterday introduced in the convention of the International Typographical union, and it is safe to say that they, or something like them, will be adopted. The unions have no idea of being swallowed up by the Knights of Labor, but they have no objec- tion to accepting the help of the Knights in their striking and boycotting schemes.
 A new labor society has been formed in Wilmington, Delaware, called Delaware Fraternity No. of the National Printers Protective Fraternity. It differs from the old fashioned typographical union in giving "mortuary benefits" in embodying in it's constitution clause prohibiting the order ing, aiding or in any manner abetting a strike or boycott, and admitting employers as well as employees. "It strikes us, says the Wilmington News, ''as in every way a sensible, prudent and practicable scheme or organization, carefully guarding all existing rights of property and of property control. and at the same time securing ts every mem- Der the maximum advantages of organized association, and to the families of members the benefits of relief fund in case of death. '' Not long ago it was announced that paper l rails had been made and successfully tested. AT- c. yI1,0 pipes, and such pipes have been exhibited in Vienna.

That "a burned child dreads the fire" is perfectly true, as everyone will admit; our neighbors go further than this, and in choosing ''scalded cat" as the object of consideration, speak of it as being in fear of "cold" water even, thus expressing the natural distrust of the cat, after having once been scalded, as extending even to ''cold" water.
