How to Make Carp Culture Profitable.

The American Angler says:--1hc own CT of pond near Modesto informed tho writer that he had had carp to reach in single years growth three and four pounds, and in few instances as high as six and seven pounds. They will grow from three inches long in May to twelve and eighteen inches long in the fall, averaging about three pounds in weight. They feed naturally upon inJ sects, roots, leaves seeds of grass and aquatic plants, as we'll as the countless infusori@ generated in such ponds, and may be artifcially fed on corn meal, stale bread, cabbage, lettuce, pumpkins, boiled mashed potatoes and kitchen re- fuse; but care should be taken not to ovcrfeed them, as they become sluggish and do hot exercise sufficiently to keep them in firm flesh and when overfed during the spawning season they will not breed proliically. The pond should have a bottom of mud about foot in depth, into which in very cold weather they burrow, heads downward, and lie dormant. The ponds should be so con structed as to prevent any rapid rise or fall of the water. A pond covering about one quarter of an acre will supply from $200 to $500 worth of food fish every season, and an acre pond would be more profitable than any ten acres of farm.

Hints t0 COnsuInbttteA.

U,nsumptives should use food as fioutshing AS can be had, and in a shape that will best agree with the stomach and taste of the pa, tient.
 Outdoor exercise Is earnestly recommended. If you are unable to take such exercise on horseback or on foot, that should furnish no exct1se for shutting yourself indoors, but you should take exercise in carriage, or in some other WAY bring yourself in contact with the open air: ,......
 Medicines which cause approximation must be avoided. For five hundred years phy- sicians have tried to cure Consumption by using them, and have failed. Where there is great derangement of the secretions with enporgement of air-cells, there is always profuse expectoration. Now Piso's Cure re- moves the engorgement and the derangement of the secretions, and consequently (and in this way only) diminishes the amount of mat ter expectorated. This medicine does not dry up d cough, but removes the cause of it.
 When it is impossible from debility or other ments occupied by the patient should be so of fresh air in abundance. as often as every third day with tepid water any any othery After thoroughly drying, use use

You will please recolect we cure this sease by enabling the organs of the system to perform their tunctiHns in nor normal way while the recuperative powers of the system cure the disease.
 We will here say a word in regard to cough n the forming stage, where there is no con- stitutional or noticeable disease. A <, cough may or may not foreshadow serious evil; take it in its midest form to say the least, it is a nu 'sance and should be abated.
 A cough is unlike any other symptom of dis ease. It stands g. conspirator with threaten ing voice. mena cing the health and existence of a vital organ. It's first approach is in whls- pers unintelligible and at first too often un. needed but in time it never fails to maze itself understood-never fails to claim the attention of those on whom it calls.
 If you have a cough without disease of the lungs or serious constitutional distqrbance, : & SC will be all you may need, while if you TO fal advanced in Consumption, several bottles may be required to effect a permanent euro.

A PADer Nose.

In letter from Sophia we find the fol- lowing story: Gadban Effendi, at some early period of his life, was in delicate health; and his malady settling in his nose, brought about tho total loss of that feature. This misfortune was mitigated by the adoption of a paper substitute, which answers uncommonly well and never turns blue on frosty mornings. But of course it is not thing to take notice of or talk about. Yet, when Gadban Efendi was going to Stambul last Janu- ary with the Princes message to the Sul- tan, passport was given him by the Bulgarian Foreign office which contained his signalement, of which one of tho items was 'Nez: Postiche." This bru- tai precision irritatcd Gadban very much. He demanded an audience with the Prince, and insisted that the passport clerk should be dismissed. Prince Alex ander, with his wonted grace of manner, soothed the wounded spirit of the diplo- matist; and on taking leave of him was so anxious to be polite that, forgetting the peculiar disabilities under which Cad ban Effcndi labored, he presented him with a valuable -box.-St. Janes' GHsette.

Crinnled Crime.

The difficulty of preventing the escape of criminals has at all times grieved the friends of justice, but the most radical solution of the problem has probably been devised in Gazi, seaport town claimed both by the Emir of Belang and the Sultan of Zanzibar. According to a correspondent of the Colonial Zeitung, the municipal autho, ities, who enjoy a local autonomy, have for years saved the expense of burglar-proof jails by ham, stringing their malefactors and teaching them to earn living by some sedenatry occupation. Besides being useful avis au public, the consequent lameness pre- vents relapse, or at least the flight of 8 suspected backslider.-Dr. Os,oala.

AN erroneous impression prevails


 AN erroneous impression prevails throughout the country, says the Wash ington Republican, that the bill pro- viding for an extension of the White House contemplates the erection of @ building in another part of the city for the private residence of the President. The bill distinctly provides for the erection of building just south of the present one, and similar in style. The buildings will be connected by broad corridor, which will also furnisha porte cochero in the rear of the present edi- fee. The bill has been reported back to the Senate favorably, and will prob ably pass. There is but little doubt that another building is needed, as is evidenced by the crowded condition of the East and other public rooms on re- ception days. The new building will give the President privacy which he does not have at present, and the pres- ent building will be used for official purposes.

THE Comanche (Texas) Chtef has this notice of specimen of South western eloquence: "Luther Benson, the great temperance orator, lectured to densely crowded houses Thursday and Friday nights. Never have we heard such an awful and terrific de. nunciation of the whisky traffic and the evils of alcohol. It would take the most extravagant praise of every man, woman, and child present to give the faintest idea of the real grandeur of that mans words-the drollest, the prettiest, the most sublime, or the sad dest words that ever fell from human lips. With every flight he seemed to rise higher and higher, and when he brought his majestic, sweeping gestures into play he was like the eagle parting the clouds with tireless wing; then he would lower his splendid voice, and in 0 tone of unutterable tenderness, re- late some pathetic incident that caused tears to rush unbidden to every eye; ; and then suddenly, with tongue of flame, he thundered away in fierce attack against the evil that has draped the world in sorrow, while his great, sad eyes seemed to look clear across She plains of eternity. He finally closed with reference to his God, and, raising those lustrous eyes to heaven,
 he delivered an apostrophe that is sell dom equaled. It was burst of solemn and pathetic feeling; it was electric. It was like the last beam of sunset, or the gleam of summer lightning, radiating from the brow of cliff and mountain. |"

Bressant, I am charged to deliver into your hands the sum of ten thousand silver rubles. A carriage is at the door to convey you to Paris, whither you are enjoined to pro- ceed without moments delay" "But," objected the surprised French man, "I have debts to settle before I leave, and" All that will be at- tended to for you after your departure" At least, must pack my trunksl" "That is not necessary.

On Tuesday evening great Socialist meet ing was held in Chicago. At nine o'clock the crowd was large. During the progress of speech by ono of the Socialists squad of off, cers marched by close to the speakers stand. Some one shouted, "Kill the -" Almost as soon as the words had been uttered, three bombs were thrown from near the stand into the midst of the squad of officers They fell between two ranks and exploded instantly and five policemen fell Others were wound cd, and several of the Socialists did not es- cape. The police retorted instantly with 6 volley from their revolvers. The rioters an- swered with theirs, which tue sequel proved they were we'll provided with.
 The mob appeared crazed with frantic de- sire for blood and, holding its ground, poured vo.ly after volley into the midst of tho officers The latter fought gal'sntly, and at last dis persed the mob and cleared the market place. The officers fired round after round into the mob. Large numbers of the mob fell and as they dropped were immediately carried to the rear and into many dark alyways by their friends. No estimate of the casualties can be given. but the police at the Desplsines street station state that fully fifty of them were wounded.
 A report says that the officers had just called upon the men to disperse, when suddenly from behind . wagon, which was not fifteen feet from the front rank of the police, bombs were thrown in between the second and third ranks of the man with the effect as already stated.
