Ladies of the second rank of royalty in
England lead very dull and humdrum
lives They are too high to find equals in
society; they must be surrounded with a
certain degree Il state and ceremony: they
have their people in-waiting; everybody
cuurtesirs or kusnws To them. But this Is
the extent of their grandeur. Their in
comes are not to be compared with the
revenues of the nobility; their jewels ami
toilets are inferior 10 the trappings OF
many of the ladies who wait on them: they
have no great estates OF mansions even,
but must put up with apartments in some
half-drserted palace, and the spectacle
they present Of impoverished royalty is
pitiabIe rather than dignified The nation
grudges them their allowance, and threat
ems not TO support their children. u.-London

Principal Causes of Boiler ExpIosio

Boiler explosions were formerly attri-
buted To mysterious agencies and there
are some who still cling 10 that theory,
even III the face of satisfactory evidence of
weakness or carelessness, or both. After
twenty years study Of the subject among
that there is little or no ground for mys-
terry here. The principal causes of boiler
explosions are poor material, fault in
type, poor workmanship and careless
management. Material and workman
ship have already been alluded to. There
are new types Of boilers devised every
year but the majority Of them have but "A
short existence.
The tendency to employ cheap engineers
is no doubt a fruitful cause of disaster
and under careless management the best
boiler may be ruined in week or less
The desire for excessive pressureS, eSps
Cially on boilers that have been some
years in use, and that are not of sufficient
capacity for the work required, is another
fruitful source of disaster Steam users
in many cases forget that with the enlarge
ment Of their works for increased produ.-
ton they should add cOrrespOndingly 10
their boiler power. They often try to pro
vide for this increase of product by order

The Sag. Of DeeraeId'." Manners.

Changes OF Forty Years I'm New York
and Brooklyn,

| The changes in the outward condition
of the cities, now knit by the bridge into
practical oneness, have been so many and
so surprising that it seems impossible
that others of like novelty and impor.
tance should occur in another such term
OF years. AT the time OF my installation,
as some of you remember, we had no
water in the city save that which came
through the frequent street pumps or
was gathered in cisterns from the roofs.
New York had received it only four
years before, through the then unfinished
Croton aqueduct.
We had, on this side of the river, no
gas III our houses, nor along our streets;
po city hall or municipal buildings; of
course DO street railways and no tele-
graph connections. One struck the coun.
try road, winding between farms, at
what is now the City Hall square. The
city had no uniformed police. The pro-
lection Of it, so far as there was any, was
in the hands OF the City Watch, with
two captains. two assistants, two watch
houses and sixty watchmen, divided into
squads OF fifteen each, to keep guard by
turns during day and night. The pay Of
the watchmen was so cents day. There
were said to be also nine invisible con-
stables, or one for each ward. The
assessed value of real and personal prop
erty in the city was $26, 933. GIG. or con-
siderably less than that of the real estate
only in the First ward to-day.
The square on which the church was
erected was occupied, for the larger part,
as pasture for cows, What is now
Prospect Park was rough, dreary, ma
larisus waste, with a few shanties for
colored people hidden among the intri-
cate thickets. The bridge which con-
meets us with Manhsttan Island, with its
nightly crown of electric lights, would

had dreamed of it, than vision Of an
gels flaming forth upon the sky. Brook
lyn was only known to the country, and
was principally known within itself as
Offering dormitory to the people of New
York, and as the last considerable place
on the way to Greenwood.
Across the river the changes have been
yet more conspicuous. Castle Garden
was then place for great musical per-
formances. Stately residences stood
around the Battery or overlooked the
Bowling Green. Columbia College was
on the old site, between Barclay and
Murray streets, and it's ancient syca-
mores had not disappeared. Trinity
Church had been recently erected. The
Brick Church stood on what is now
known as Printing House Square. st.
Georges was on Beekman street, at the
corner Of Cliff, and had attached parish
toner's in Brooklyn. The Tabernacle
Church was on Broadway, between An
thony. now known as Worth street. and
Leonard. The New York Hospital was
a little below it, on the corner of Duane
street Prom Rev. DR.. Storrs's Me-

Two farmers in Kidder county, Da-
kota, Kepler and Raymond, have tried
the past two years as an experiment the
plan Of sowing only the largest ard
plumpest grain and giving little extra
cultivation, resulting in average Yields
OF about thirty two bushels to the acre
of quality Of wheat so superior that
they are offered fifteen cents above the
market price. AL the labor was hired
and accounts of expenses Kept showing
that the crops cost them little over
twenty-five cents bushel. Their profit
is about sixty cents a bushel, or from
eighteen to twenty dollars an acre.
This shows that good culture and seed
will pay in Dakota as In the old Sec
tions, and little better. - Northeastern
