A Wonderful Typewriter.

A unique typewriter was exhibited
in Boston recently. The machine prints
with type such as is used for news
papers, the letters being arranged in
rows on barrel or cylinder each row
representing one letter. 1t is to all in
tents and purposes web printing
press, and the operator, instead of hav-
ing to change sheets every two hundred
words, keeps on until the web of paper
has been worked off. This is, of course,
saving of time. The paper is wound
from one roller to another, receiving
the impression meanwhile, as in the
case of the modern newspaper press.
To make an impression treadle is
used, and to place the letter in position
both hands of the operator are used,
each step of the treadle giving as many
impressions as there are letters in each
ine-in the present instance twenty-one
copies. It is possible to increase or
reduce the number of letters in each
line according to the number of copies
required by the operator.-N r Post.

A STRATEGEM.
The Amusing Blunder Com mitted by q
Long Island Belle.

Long Island Belle.
A young lady from Smithtown re-
turned home little late the other eve
ming, and after parting at the gate with
q "some one else,' crept up the front
stoop and very softly inserted the
night-latch key in the lock, unfastened
the door and crept in the house so as
not to awaken her parents, who were
slumbering upstairs. But luck was
against her, for she upset chair, and
voice from above Immediately asked:
"Who's there?" "Only me, papa"
"What time is it, and where have you
been?' II only went down to-'s to
spend the evening" Imagine THE
young lady's feelings when she heard
her parental ancestor get up and pre-
pare to come down stairs. She immedi-
ately set her brain at work to get out OF
the coming storm. She had better turn
the clock little back, SO she went to
the mantelpiece, and as there was no
lamp in the room she had to feel for it.
She found it, and gave the key
which turns it twist, and with smile
sat down to warm her feet and await
the arrival of her dear papa In due
time he arrived, and brought with him
a lamp. The hands on that much
abused clock registered $50 a. M. The
young lady, instead of turning the
hands back, had turned them ahead.
What followed we don't like to tell

Winter is the best time for consider
ing the claims of new crops and for
gaining information respecting them.
1t is also the best time for learning about
the comparative value of different
breeds of animals and fowls, the profits
of bee culture, the construction of fish
ponds and the cost of undertaking.
It affords the most leisure for gaining
information about dairying, the con-
struction of silos, and the erection of
wind-mills. Most farmers have little to
do during the winter except to take care
of their stock and to draw and prepare
fuel. They have time to read and
study. There are now reliable publica-
tons on almost every branch OF farm
ing, horticulture, stock-raising and
dairying. A farmer who is considering
the propriety of engaging in new
undertaking will show wisdom to read
ing what has been written on the SUBJ
ject. Learning anything by personal
experience is generally expensive. 1t
costs time as well as money. A saving
of both may generally be effected by
reading the experience of others. If a
man is undecided about any new branch
of business after reading what has been
printed respecting it, he will generally
find it to his advantage to visit those
who are or who have been engaged In
it. A journey will cost something, but
it will be less expensive than an expert
ment that will often end in failure. -

LAWYERS AT SEA.
Nuisances on Board Ship Who Know

other evening as he sat in the tug

sucking away at an old pipe. "a good
many crews, and never had any trouble
with the men but once. 1t was on salt
water, and was engaged to sail a brig
from Boston to Rio Janeiro and back.
When the boys came aboard 1 thought
what a good-looking crowd they were,
and sure enough they proved to be as
good men as | ever sailed with, with one
exception. He bothered me good deal.
He knew his business well enough and
would do what he was told, but with a
kind of way about him that was very
provoking, just as though he was doing
a favor, and if he was told to do any
thing as like as not he would ask, as
politely as you please. if it wouldn't be
better to do so and so, but if l gave him
bit of jawng he would 60 about the

lawyer? Yes, lyer, that's what he was,
q regular sea lyer-he kind of smiles,
tickled like, and takes hold of the fellow
that dropped the block and goes down
in the TO k sle Purity soon he comes up
to me and begins to argue with me
about the mate abusing the men. The
mate was as kind a fellow as ever lived,
and wouldn't hurt hair of mans
head. Well, kinder laughed at him
and said in course the mate would swear
when he got his toes smashed, but it was
no use; the more gived in the more he
jawed away, and at last | ordered him
forred. The cuss smiled all over and
seq that, accordin' to law, he has a
right to state the case and demand to
have the crew treated properly, and
then he gives me more law in a minute
than I ever heerd before, and | got
right hot and tells him if he don't 90
forred I'll have him locked up below.
Then he SEE, seq he: Please do lock me
up if you want to-, and begged me to
punish him, and dassen't, and the cuss
knew it, for he would have had me
hauled up for it at the first port we
touched, for he wasn't doing nothing
wrong. 1t was his watch below, and
the weather was fair, so didn't have no
excuse to order him aloft. He jawed
away until went aft to get rid of him
SAN through that trip it was hard to
tell who was captain of that vessel, me
or him. Every day he'd come up with
some question or other, and the madden
I'd get the more he'd smile, until it is a
wonder didn't put him in irons and
stand my chances in court for it.
"Well, we got through that trip at

GOING UP.
Hats Will Be Taller Than Ever During
Mid-Winter.


Hats unfortunately are taller than
ever this winter When will they cease
to grow in height Surely the time has
come when such exaggeration should
be checked. Crowns now are too high
and massive; height was not SO bad
when the shape was conical. To
add to the bad effect brims are very
narrow and are curled up at the sides.
In word, there is a strong resemblance
between them and a gentleman's silk
hat, by no means beautiful object, aud
by no means so comfortable as might
be desired. This shape is the new IA
vorite for the new Jersey hats, which
consist of buckram shape neatly COW
cred with fine silk stockingette. They
are also made in felt and in silk like
gentleman's hat. Another novelty is
Che felt or silk hat covered with fine
silk network. The plain felt is prettier
on the whole, but at the same. time it is
useful method of hiding the shabbi-
ness of last years felt hat, the shape
of which tae owner likes. Both the
Jersey and netted hats are so neatly
finished that a band, where crown and
brim join, is not necessary and is rarely
employed. The only trimming gen
orally is plume of feathers and
ribbon bow in front. 1t
must be remembered that Jersey
hats can not be made by cutting out the
shape in stockingette as one would with
velvet; no, the covering is specially
manufactured to fit the shape, and the
only seam is up the center of the back
Feathers are fashionable, but they are
principally placed at the back to droop
over the front. Rich oriental fabrics are
employed for searfs, and large variety
of embroidered braids and ribbons form
bows and draperies. Ch'aplet beads
(the wooden beads) are preferred to jet
for edging brims or embroidery mate
rails for bonnets and hats, being Sc
light, and having the sanctity of novelty.
They are employed to embroider all
manner of jackets, mantles, and dresses
as well. They have put jet and lead
beads considerably in the shade for
time. Ribbons, especially those en-
ployed for millinery, are usually
beautiful and fanciful. There is pretty
gauze ribbon just out which has the
usual satin edge on one side only, the
other side being finished with series
of scallops, embroidered with colored
silk. A charming hat for young lady
is of beige felt; the crown is tall and
pointed, the brim straight and wide, and
lined with green velvet. A beige ostrich
feather is laid across the brim in front;
on the left is beige aigrette, and
large bow of green ribbon. This hat is
worn rather at the back of the head, so
that thee short, curled hair in front is
well exposed. The same hat is very
pretty in black, with lemon-colored or
beige feathers and aigrette. Godey's

Officials.

The accounts of the marshals and dis
trict attorneys sent to the first comp
troller's office show a strange condition
of affairs in the southern district of
Alabama. The fees of the United States
commissioners, district attorney, etc,
for the prosecution of negroes for cutting
timber from the government and other
o~ffenses against the statutes amount to
about $125,000, and there is no apparent
good resulting from the prosecutions.
The Offenders are seldom convicted and
still more seldom punished. The treas
ury officials think the depredations are
encouraged for the sake OF the fees they
afford the prosecutors. A letter to this
effect was written to Land COMMISSIONS
Sparks by Deputy First Comptroller
Garrison, and Commissioner Sparks
assured the treasury Official of his de-
termination to prevent sham prosecu
tipns.

Omaha and the Roads.

The Nebraska and western railroad
development is not favorable to the in
terest of Omaha, according to the fol-
lowing review of the Omaha Bee:
The years of 1886 and 1887 are to he
great years for Nebraska in the extension
of her railroad systems in and across q
score OF counties in the state. 1t is an
aggressive ere in ~railroading. The days
when corporations could parcel out ter
ritory and meet the requirements OF
their patrons or not, as they saw fit,
have passed. Five systems are now
competing for the transportation OF
Nebraska produce and pushing to
divert to their own lines the
profitable traffic of our farmers
and merchants. The Burlington, which
has already gridironed the south Platte
country with its rails, long ago crossed
the river and is now far on its way In
northwestern Nebraska toward the
Wyoming line and the Black Hills. The
Northwestern, holding in it's grasp the
valleys OF Elkhorn and Niobrara, has
struck sr8thward and entered Lincoln
while it ia pushing q spur westward

ward towards Dodge county from
Wahoo with q view Of tapping the coun.
ties between Elkhorp and the Platte.
while the latter has, already begun CON
struction OF o line from North Bend TO
Stanton, whose future extension north
west is only a question of time. South
towards the Kansas line the Rock
island road is reaching into Nebraska to
claim her share of q traffic which the
allied pool lines OF the Northwestern
and Burlington have proved to be SO
lucrative, while Gould's Missouri
Pacific, which already occupies a com.
mandiug position in eastern Nebraska.
is making preparations to push forward
to Yankton and the Dakota line. But
none of these extensions are what
Omaha desires most OF ALA direct line
into her nearest trade territory. The
Burlington and Northwestern find il to
their interest to divert traffic across thu
river and haulit 800 miles to the lakes.
The Missouri Pacific has it's terminus as
many miles to the south and works for
the long haul in that direction, and the
Rock Island when its extensions finally
reach our trade territory VIII carry out,
the same policy. Omaha's interests lie
IN the direction ofa road built with
Omaha capital and operated in the
interests of this city. There can be NO
other final solution OF the problem.
