Protectlng the Rir,ls.

The humane call made by the press all
over the country last winter for the pro.
lection of the birds against the fatal de
cree Of fashion seemed to have the Oppo-
site effect 10 what it was intended to
nave. The usually dear, tender-hearted
ladies appeared TO become more fascina-
ted than ever with bird ornaments for
their millinery, and she is but second
rate belle now who does not require the
sacrifice of half dozen feathered beau
les during the year to her pride and ar
tistic fancy.
All appeals have been in vain, aud laws
are inopeFative-so it seems that the bird
ornament craze must run it's course. II
lie useless to speak Of the millions of birds
that are sacrificed wantonly, or to men,
ton the fact that even our most highly
priced songsteTs are being rapidly exter-
minated or driven into the mountains
and forests. 1t seems that many ladies
look ON birds as they do ON their superfiu-
ousdOvers. They are never more grati-
fed and fattered than when they drive
some poor fellow to suicide or into exile.
They are not inuately cruel. perhaps, but
they exult in undou oted proofs that they
are loved and appreciated.
Now that 1t seems to be impossible to
stop the slaughter of birds, perhaps the
slaughter can be so directed as TO benefit
mankind and tend TO the preservation Of
those birds that are useful or that con-
tribute to the pleasure OF humanity. No
doubt, with prOper treatment, the skins
and feathers OF English sparrOws, jay
BIRDS and other annoying and destructive
species, will make very beautiful orna-
ments for hats aud bonnets. as they can
he dyed almost any desired color. These
BIRDS are plentiful and easily taken and
should be slaughtered, while The inseotly-
Orous and song birds should be protected.
The appeal now Is TO fashion 80 come TO
the aid OF the agrIculturist and the horti-
eulturist, while not peglecting her
bOunden duty TO vanity and the destroyer.
1t is said that Queen Victoria contem.
plates issuing proclamation censuring
the wearing Of bird ornaments. II is al.
legged that she greatly disapproves Of the
practice. The Queen, however, does not
lead the fashion, and her DEGREES are only
needed at her own court. II the semi
demi monde OF Paris will just quit wear
ing bird ornaments the fashionable world
will at once follow the example.

stories About FIorida,s Senators.

II would be interesting to know how
much truth there is in the curious
story which the Washington correspond.
emit OF the New York Tribune tells about
Senator Jones, OF Florida. There is
some little reason TO question this CORE
spOndents statements about the Florida
Senators because he loses no opportunity
To present them 20 the country in an un-
favorable light. Why he does this no one
but himself perhaps knows. Both Senator
Jones and Senator Call rank very high at
Washington. They certainly are popular
at home. and II is admitted that they
render the country and their State
splendid service.
For more than a year, however, the
TrjbRne'S correspondent has been assert
ing that Senator Call undertook TO get p
homestead away from a negro named
Swain, who lives in Florida about seven
ty-hye miles from Jacksonville. or
course the Senator was able to show that
the assertion was without foundation.
Another OF the 1rlbaRe'S stories is that
Senator Call endeavored 20 have q gentle
man % prominance named Hull appoint
ed Postmaster at Jacksonville, and failed
because the President wasn't fayorably
disposed 10 Mr.. Hull. The Senator then
presented the name Of MIR.
Clark, the present Postmaster,
who was acceptable. But the
tribune says that the President was
greatly displeased with the Senator be-
cause Mr. Hull was made Chief Deputy
Postmaster, thus defeating his alleged
expressed intention not TO permit Dir.
Hull 10 have any office. This story cnr-
RES its own denial. Senator Call would
! hardly incdr the ill.will Of the President
for 80 small a matter, particularly as be
will be in need ali the while OF execu-
tive fayors.
The stories relative 10 Senator Call are
hardly worth notice, and are mentioned
to show how unfair the treatment is
which Southern Senators receive from the
Northern Republican papers.
The story which the Tribme'S cores
pendent tells about Senator Jones, how
ever, may have just a little truth In II,
but just how little II Is not possible %
guess with any degree Of certainty. The
story Is that the Senator has not appeared
in the Senate during the present session.

MacPHERsoNs TRIBULATIoNs.
The Unfortunate seOtchmsn who Went
to Philadelphia and Lost Bis Name.
From the San FranciscO Chronicle,

From The San Francisco Chronicle.
Rsfus Choate was once engaged to hunt up
the lost heir to a Scotch estate. He was the
last direct heir Of the MacPhersons. and was
supposed to be in America. After an awful
lot OF trouble ChOate unearthed him in New
ORR ans, where he was known as Pete Gum,
aud this 10 how he came to have that name:
In Arcadia, here ne frat settled for conVe-
nience, he was called Pherson, and custom
made that the name he lived under. He
moved into nnsylvania. where the Dutch
people, notseelpg any sense in Pherson. para
phrase 1t into FirestOle. which they after
Waid translated into Feuerstein.
Then he went to PHI ladeipha, where that
name being unpr0nouuceable, the people
tran'lated II back into English. and he was
c4iled Ret rFlint. After few years there he
moved into Louisiana, and there the CreOles
taxing still further liberties with his name,
adapted II into Pierre a Fusil. Under that
name he lived long time. and finally settled
IN New Orleans, where he became dissatisfied
with the French title. and he translated It
90 oily himself into Peter Gum, and so he was
discovered

Discriminating Against Aliens.

The action Of the House Committee on
Labor. in adding clause to the convict
labor bill, prohibiting the employment of
aliens on public works, will doubtless be
generally approved. The purpose of the
committee is to discourage the immlgra-
ton of laDOrers who do not intend to be-
come citizens. 1t Is hardly right to per-
NIT foreigners who come here only for the
purpose OF earning better wages than
hey can earn in their own cOun-
try, and who refuse to bear any
of the burdens of citizenship, to
stand on the same footing with Ameri-
can workingmen. II they become citizens
they ought not, Of course, TO be discrimi-
mated against, and there is no intention to
discriminate against them under those
circumstances. 1t is the duty of the gov
eminent, however, to protect its citizens
as far as it possibly can. 1t ought not to
be forgotten that the proposed legislation
was suggested by Democrats, and doubt
less will meet with the approval of DEM
OcTatic House. The aliens aimed at prin-
cipally are the Hungarisns who are i'm

Of Pennsylvania. These manufacturers
and mine-Owners are all the while de-
handing hit her tarif'in order. as they al
lege, to protect American workingmen.
The importation OF these Hungarians by
the thousand is pretty good evidence that
the protectionists care very little for the
welfare Of American wOrkingmen. They
aim only to increase their possessions,
and they will let American worklngmen
starye if they can get alien workingmen
for a smaller compensation.
These Hungarians have been the &C.
casion of q great deal of trouble ever since
they began to settle in the iron ana coal
regions Of Pennsylvania. They have
made no move to become citizens. They
have no appreciation of the benefits of
citizenship in this country. They are
ignorant and turbulent, and promise 10
become dangerous II they are not speedily
made to understand that they are amena-
ole to the law. These are some of the
aliens for whose presence in this country
Republican manufacturers and mine
owners are responsible, and against
whom the Democrats propose to legisiate.

Ministers Advised TO Wear Boards.

DR.. Wm. Macdonald, says in the
London Lancet: That ancient and
pious father Of the church, Tertullian
designated shaving as a blasphemy
against the church. It may surprise
not few when say that there can
40 longer be doubt that the bron-
chitic affections under which ministers
of the gospel so frequently labor are
often due to the violation of hygienic
Iaw. The fact that the Creator plant
ed beard on the face Of the human
male, thus making it law Of his
physical being, indicates in language
not to be misunderstood that the dis
;inctive appendage was bestowed for
the purpose of being worn.
Besides, the Levitical law is just as
explicit in forbidding the shaving Of
The head, except in cases of disease, as
in the Observation-Disclosures the
Sabbath day to keep it holy" More
over, physically considered, these views
are corroborated by experience: for
disease of the throat have in n lmerous
Instances been traced directly to the
shaving of the beard, the liability dis,
appearing with its growth, and vice
versa. Let all our ministers, then.

the Bible and nature are in favor Of it.

How Matches are Made,

The timber is towed in log-rafts
Town the great water courses. When
we'll seasoned, which occupies from
me to two years, the pine is cut up
nto blocks just twice the length Of
he match. eight inches wide and two
hick. These blocks are then passed
through a machine which cuts them
Up into splints, just the thickness re.
luired for a match, only that they are
wice as long This machine is capa-
Die of turning out over two million
plints a day. The old fashioned
match was made by hand, and, COM
Jared with that, this number seems
almost incredible. They are then set,
very splint being separated from its
leighbor, so as not to adhere to each
,ther, by being laid across ribbon
eaving about quarter of an inch
between tho adjoining splints. A
FOUNDER is then used, making them all
inform and even, and the bundled
mes are dipped, at both enls, first
nto sulphur and then into the solu-
ion of PHOSPHORUS, and hung in a
'rame to dry. When dry, again they
ire placed in machine which cuts
he sticks in two, thus making two
matches out of every splint.
