Fatal Rioting Among Laborers In
italy.

LONDON, May 24.--Archbishop Walsh of
Dublin has been in this city for week to
influence the followers of Parnell to consent
to the retention of the Irish members at
Westminster in connection with the Irish
home rule measure. 1t is understood that
Cardinal Manning having become alarmed
at the propects of withdrawal of the Catho-
lie home rule members from the British par
lament has urged the Propaganda to exer-
else pressure upon the Irish bishops
with a view of having them exert their influ-
ence upon Parnell in favor of the retention
of the Irish members. The ground taken by
the Cardinal is that the removal of the Irish
members would be injurious to the cause OF
Catholic denominational education in Great
Britain.
The Propaganda has succeeded in inducing
the bishops to exert their influence upon
Parnel's followers with the object of secur-
ing the latters consent to retention OF the
full Irish representation at London.
Negotiations between the Chamberlain
party and the government continue and
there is thought to be a favorable prospect
of settlement of the home rule question. A
cabinet council will be held tomorrow to
consider the limit of concessions to be offered
before division is taken on the home rule
bill.

To Preserve Paste and Glue.

1t is found that the unwholesone and Of
fensivc effluvia from decomposing paste and
glue can be overcome by a very simple
method. If, when making the paste and glue,
a small quantity of carbclic acid is added to
it, it viii continue in sweet condition to
the end. 4 few drops added to mucilage or
ink prevents mould. Again, in whitewash-
ing the cellar, dairy, ETC., if an ounce of car
bolic acid is added to each gallon Of wash it
will prevent mould, and also the disagreeable
taints often perceived in meats and milk
from damp apartments. Another peculiar
advantage claimed for the use of carbolic
acid in paste for wall paper and in whitewash
is that it will drive away insect pests The
cheapest and best form of carbolic acid is the
crystals, which dissolve in water or Equefy
at an excess of temperature re-Boston Budget

Tho Tyrant Man in Germany.

Not content with closing the women's club
in Berlin, the German male is at present
snarling bitterly at tho female students at col
leges and universities. Ono young lady ac-
tually had the 'timpudence" to attend one Of
Professor Hofmann's lectures on organic
chemistry at Berlin college, and, what was
far worse, she even showed considerable
knowledge Of the subject" A widely read
German paper, reporting the above facts,
hopes "that Russian fashions" will not

establishments. Nevertheless, "the Russian
fashion seems to find favor, for no
sooner had the first elegantly dressed
young lady" taken hsr place among the
male students than three others, two Of
them elderly ladies, graced ono of Professor
Schulze's lectures on zoology with their
presence. This fact was also duly recorded
in the press, and The Deutsche Tageblatt de-
ivers itself on the occurrence in the follow
ing manner: "The next thing will be that
women will make their appearance in the

Puzzled by Her Pockets.

The manner of putting in the pockets of
women's dresses nowadays is very puzzling.
It always did battle a man to find them, but
now it battles tho woman herself. 1t is no
unusual thing for lady to come back to our
head ladies and ask them to show them the
pockets and how to get at them. You see
the pockets are fixed in the plaits, and do not
show at all. You frequently ses a lady on
entering store clap her hand down where
her pocket should be- The observer does not
notice anything, but you may depend on it
that she has found her pocket if she goes
ahead, ard if she turns back she has not. Re
Gently noticed one lady coming back three
CT four times, and, thinking some blunder
must have been made, made inquiries. It
was only to find her pocket, and each time
she got caught in store, unable to find the
entrance to the pocket when she wanted to
get something cut.-Globe-De

Thackcray in Praise of Woman.

Thackcray, III ono Of his novels, says:
There arc more clever women in the world
than mon think for Our habit is to despise
them: VIC believe they do not think because
they do not contradict Us; and are weak be-
cause they do not rise up against u.s. A man
only begins to know women as he grows old;
and for my part my opinion of this cleverness
rises every day. When l say that / know
women mean that don't know them. Every
single woman ever met is a puzzle to me, as
! have no doubt she IS to herself. Say they
are not clever! They are constantly exercis-
ing cleyerness Of the finest sort.
"You see dcnlurc-looking woman, faith
full in house bills and shirt buttons, obedient
to her lord and anxious to please him in all
things; silent on politics or literature, and, if
referred to, saying with smile of humility:
'Oh. women are not judges upon such mat
tors; we leave learning to men, Yes, says
Jones, attend to the house, my dear, and
leave the rest to Us Benighted idiot! She
has long ago taken your measure; she knows
your weaknesses and ministers to them in q
thousand artiul ways. She knows your OBJ
stinate points, and marches round them with
the most curious art and patience, as you
will SEQ see an ant on a journey turn round
an obstacle"

Young English nIaidens.

Until they go into the world they are mod
est and retiring to delightful degrse. There
is a sweetness and simplicity of manner in a
highborn young English maiden which is ire
sistible in its Unconscious charm; q natural
timid grace that reminds one Of the move
ment and expression Of a fawn; delicacy as
exquisite and pure as the first breath OF the
morning. They are natural. and therefore
womanly; full apparently of repressed but
genuine feeling that half frightens them with
its unaccustomed and mysterious sensations;
as bewitching at this period as any woman in
the world.
After they are "out," much of this peculiar
attractiveness is lost. The soft, easy grace
becomes a cold and formal manner or hardens
into a naughty superciliousness. They join
in the hunt for husband, and sickle at moth
ing to bring down their man. Or if they live
in the very dissipated set, they contract a
flippant forwardness that suggests and some
times surpasses the conspicuous manner of an
underbred American belle.-Adam Badeau's

THE YOSEMITE IN DANGER.

Influences Which Will Ultimately Result
in Great Injury to the Noted Valley.
While all these changes are occurring with

without its boundary line which, if not well
directed, and in many cases checked, will in
another score Of years, If we may measure
progress by the last score, run railroads to the
valley from eli sides, build hotels throughout
this Alpine region Of America and thoroughly
open its heretofore inaccessible wonders. To
! accomplish this the heavily wooded slopes Of
the great watersheds above Yosemite will DO

sheep that are annually driven from the
plains of the San Joaquin to the mountain
meadows, there to tramp and craze until
every green spot is robbed of its carpet Of

srnouldering embers Of tae shepherts' de-
serted camp fires are famed into ceniagTa-
tons that destroy in a single day the growth

every grazing region the charred columns

Many persons take the precaution to wrap
every glass jar or tumbler in paper, and then
pack each of them in sawdust or sand, so that
they will not be affected by light nor by at
mospheric changes. The closet in which pre-
serves are kept should not be damp nor should
it be in close proximity to the kitchen In
winter the temperature must be degree or
two above freezing point. 1t is always well
to keep preserves in closet by themselves,

The Advantages of Borax.

The washerwomen of Holland and Belgium,
who get UP their linen SO beautifully white,
use refined borax as washing powder instead
of soda, in the proportion Of one large hand
full of borax powder to about ten gallons OF
boiling water. They thus save in soap nearly
half. All the washing establishments adopt
the same mode. For laces, cambrics, etc, an
extra quantity of the powder is used, and for
crinol;nes requiring to be made stiff astrong
solution is necessary. Borax being neutral
salt, does not in the slightest degree injure
the texture Of the linen; its effect is to soften
the hardest water, and, therefore, it should
be kept On every toilet table. To the taste it
is rather sweet; it is used for cleansing the
hair, is an excellent dentifrice, and in hot
countries is employed in combination with
tartaric acid and bicarbonate Of soda as q
cooling beverage. Good tea cannot be made
with hard water: but all water may be made
soft by adding teaspoonful of borax powder
to an ordinary sized kettle of water, in which
it should boil. The saving in the quantity OF
tea used viii be at least one fifth.-Cleveland

Bad for tho Young.

When the wisdom Of our forefothers de-
clared that little folks should be seen and not
heard, deeper significance was meant, per-
haps, than the mere words express. 1t is bad
for the young to assert themselves, and mono
the less when the object is praiseworthy. By
that snare they fall into the pit of self-con-
sciousness, if no deeper; they lose the most
winning charm Of youth and become nui-
sance. Affectation grows into piggishness,
and so into ell manner of offensive qualities

Mexico Flooded With Babies.

Everything concerning Mexico is Of interest
just now, and it is pleasant to DO assured that
among the chief productions of the country
are children. Thus, an observant correspond
ent in that country notes tho large acquaint-
ance of the people with multiplication, in say
ing that Mexico is the hot bed Of children.
The land is flooded with them, and small
family is thing unknown. They greet you,
he says, at every window, at every corner, on
every woman's back. They gil the carriages
on the plaza; they arc like swarm Of bees
around honeysuckle-one On every tiny
flower and hundreds waiting for their chance.
A man died the other day who was followed
to the grave by eighty y-seven sons and daugh-
ters, and had buried thirteen, SO that lie was
father to the grand total Of 100 children.
There is another man living in Mexico
who has had two wives, and who has
living forty-fve children. Allowing the
small average of five to tho family, one

English Women Dress Badly.
The English women dress badly. Many Of

the beauties are very dowdily attired. Their
clothes do not set well on them, and they are
not often enough renewed. The ball costumes,
and even the court gowns, not seldom lack
freshness sadly. Many aristocrats. it is true,
cannot afford to dress well Two hundred
pounds year for dress is q large allowance
for the daughter Of a peer. knew a march
ioness, woman Of immense fortune, who de-
clared she never spent more than eSOO year
on her clothes Of course, her laces and jewels
were inherited. One of the richest mat
rons in England asked me if it was true that
American women gave Els and even Ego
for bonnet. She said she had never
paid 600 for bonnet in her life; e5 or
e10 at tho most she thought enough for any
one-laces feathers and all.
Of late years some of the great women get
their gowns from Worth, but they spoil even
these One of them said to me: ''We ruin
ourselves making ourselves hideous" This is
because they have no eye for color-in dress.
1t is strange that people whose taste in
furnishing their houses is SO exquisite; who
live in old mansions where walls and tapes
tries and parcling Or SO rich and harmonious
in tone; who have been brought up among
great pictures and delicately decorated China:
whose landscapes and gardens are a marvel
OF refined effect, yet make such mistakes when
they attempt to adorn themselves. Blue and
yellow, scarlet and green, all at once are
heaped On one unfortunate figure, aggravat-
ing every defect and marring every charm
with their blazing incongruity. Lady Waldo
grave said to an American woman with
whom she was intimate: "Why is it we cam
not dress like you? l got this gown from
Worth, but it does not look like yours. Yet
it is just as he sent it to me, except that
took of some blue trimmings and put on
green" My countrywoman told me thai this
was the reason Of the failure. The countess
