TIE ANTI.CHINEsE CRUSADE.
The California Conventions Action In
Reference 10 MongOIian Labor.

SACRAMENTO, March l2.-The
State Anti Chinese Convention at yes
terday's session adopted the following
resolution THAT no man now directly
employing or patronizing Chinese shall
be placed on the Committee of Resolu-
tons" The stringency Of this resolu-
ton nearly created a difficulty, as,
owing to the absence Of white labor,
all employers IN California have been
dependent on Chinese labor. The good
sense of the chairman, who had already
made up the committee, prevented
trouble, and all the members Of the COM
mittee, representing the best and most
influential interests on the Pacific
Coast, were accepted. A committee
was appointed to prepare memorial to
Congress setting forth the evils from
which the entire Pacific Coast suf-
fers from Chinese labor. The memorial
was presented last evening. 1t is long
document, embracing about 10000
words, and is a review Of the whole
question from its incipiency to the pre-
sent moment. 4 long platform was
adopted, directed to discouraging the
employment Of Chinese labor and
driving them from the State. A reso-
luton to boycott all employers
of Chinese labor was discussed
up to ] o'clock last night, when
amid tremendous cheers the platform
as presented was adopted. Ex-senator
Sargent, who had strongly opposed the
boycott clause, Immediately informed
the chairman Of his withdrawal from
the convention, which then adjourned

The tradition that assumed that In
glass work both the art and the artists
are noble +" gives even at this day its
legendary charm to stained glass. How
is it made ? the initiated still ask, with
something Of awe, still with interest.
The simplicity of the answer does not
detract from the wonder the chefs
d'ourre excite. The glass is originally
made in large quantities, and each
separate color is given in every grada-
ton Of depth and tone to the sheets OF
glass which form the basis of material
10 the artist. From these sheets Of every
color and degree he selects the particular
tints required for his plan, as blue for the
zenith, green for the leaves OF plants,
golden yellow for the starry crown,
ruby for the regal robe. \ full.size
drawing having been made Of his de-
sign, each piece of colored glass care
fully cut in the required shape, is laid
in its proper position upon the drawing.
THE work has now the appearance oil
a dlssected map or mosaic" The art
ist then paints with enamel colors the
details and the shadows indicated IN his
design. After this is completed the
work is ready fer " firing Each
piece is placed separately in powdered
plaster. laid on a sheet-iron tray,
and put in position in the kiln. The
door having been securely cement
ed, the fire is at once lighted.
Great care is exercised in watching the
/ fire, for if it should be too hot the glass
melts, and if il is not sufficiently hot
the color will not be burnt properly
and will hot he rendered permanent,
and new painting and a new firing
must be made to insure success. IhlS
has been ore OF the serious troubles
in glasS.work. the loss of a "klln y
beng a loss Of both labor and time.
After the glass has been thoroughly
burned. each piece is again laii upon
the full.size drawing. aud all the paris
are connected by lead line shaped 50
as to clasp firmly the pieces 1t connects.
The leads are then soldered, AMI The
whole work Is cemen,ed and hell to-
rether like single sheet Of glass.
Artistic skill Is cxeIted TO introduce
the lead lines in the drawings with
such reference to the outlines of the
design that their presence, instead oil
barbarously breaking the beauty, in
reality adds yigor to the imagery and
affects the brllliancy, as the " setting
enhances gems.
The rapidity with which the design
sketched to-day for " beautiful win
dow " may be made reality to-mor-
row creates maryels Of possibilities foT
our chapels and our homes.

did not continue TO perform its share in
the task Of being ore OF the great
monetary tools Of the world at large.
Germany. however, refused to alter its
course. The evil went on increasing,
and in 1882 the French and Upitsd
States Governments called a fresh
conference. The Germans sent
commissioner, but England practl
eally refused to have anything
to do with the matter. In consequence
Of the latter fact the conference broke
pp without any conclusion having been
arrived At. Mr.. Greenfell next referred
to the present depression Ia trade, and
quoted from the speech Of Mr. Goschen
TO show that overproduction was not
its cause. From 1876 to 1872 was q
time Of unexampled prosperity in our
trade. There were three phenomena
to be observed between lS45 and 1850.
One was free trade, another the build
ing OF our railroad system, and third
the
GOLD DISCOVERIES
The great prosperity which followed
was attributed, he thought. in too large
a degree by Mr.. Bright to the first
named cause, great as it undoubtedly
was. Much was to be attributed to our
railways and much also to the gold dis
coyeries. Ii was true that since 1916
there had been four alternate
periods Of depression and imitation
of trade. The fact was pointed to
in explanation Of the present de-
preston. But the present depres-
sion had lasted much longer than the
others, and even their opponents said
there was something far more perma-
nent in it. Hear, hear.l 1t was said
by many people that Indian producers
were gaining by the dislocation in the
price of precious metals, and he was
not going to deny that many of them
did so gain; but the budget of the
Government was getting gradually un'
dermined by it. The accounts of the
Empire of India, closing with 1854,
showed the most
ALARMING FIGURES
in reference to it. The interest on the
debt in 1884 was no less than fovr mil
lions sterling, and the loss by exchange
on the Government drafts was only
5000 600 short of another four mil.
lions. That was to say, the interest
payable on the debt of India was almost
doubled by this fall in the rate OF ex'
change. This was a most alarming
figure. The loss in the rate of ex
change, be must explain, was upor

Mr.. Grenfell pointed to the general
fall of prices, especially in land pro

and abroad, for which, he said, NJ

A MUSEUM.


Within it is a veritable museum Of
rare and beautiful objects happily toned
down to such point as to make 1t
luxurious habitation for a family OF
cultivated tastes, and not merely show
place. The largest apartment in the
house is "a superb double hall or armory,
said to contain the richest collection OF
rare pieces and suits of armor in the
world. We did not doubt it, as we do
many tales that are told us. The whole
is genuine, except the copy of one in
London and of a celebrated suit IN the
Paris armOry. This is entirely covered
with heroic scenes in relief. In this
armory of the villa are fourteen knights
on horseback and in full armor, some
ready for battle and some for the
tournament. and each one corresponds
in every point to a certain era, and
several of them originally belonged to
noted captains. Warriors were ready
for battle armed cap-a-pie, others with
cnain-armor on, or with breast-plate,
greaves, and gauntlets stood or sat
around by the dozen. and were realistic
as we'll as picturesque. There were
scores of gauntlets of all descriptions
spears, and bucklers Of Japanese, Per-
sian, and pretty well every kind OF
/ armOr that ever was seen.
THE DAYS OF CHIvALRY.
We wandered up and down amid the
knights with plumed or crested bel,
NETS and caparisoned horses and talked
Of the days of chivalry and what
amount of difficulty there would be in
guessing who was who when hearts
beat and eyes flashed behind these
LAYERS of steel. A balcony at one end
of this hall overlooks the whole length
Of it, and gives a more impressive sight
than this sort OF thing usually presents
Because of the arrangement one might
almost believe that the knights were
only waiting the signal to begin, and there
would be tremendous onslaught
The rest of the rooms are decorated IL
a sumptuous manner with gold-and-sil'
yer embroidered curtains, rare inlaid
furniture, collections Of china of ex'
ouisite fineness, and many other yalua
bic rarities; but the armory gave Us
the greatest pleasure because of 1t:
novelty to us and its completeness. A
modern semi-ltalian, semi-English room
looked over the prettiest part of the
garden. 1t was Italian by its white
succeed internal walls covered
with ornaments in relief, ant
English by its large plate-glas'
windows that took up three Of the WALL
and let in floods Of light and warmth

Extraordinary Fire in the Standard Mines,
Near Mt. Pleasant, Pa.
CoNNELLsvILLE, Pa, Oct. N.-The fire
at the Standard mines, near Mt. Pleasant,
which originated yesterday afternoon, is
still raging, and is shourly gaining Roadway.
Flame aud smoke, driven by strong cur
rent Of air, leap from the mouth of the
shaft to the height of one hundred feet
above the ground. All efforts to check
the fire have been of no avail A
fire engine from Pittsburgh arrived to-
night, and the work of flooding the mine
will be begun at once. This will require
several months 1t is thought that nearly
three acres of coal are now ablaze, The
amount of loss can not now be estimated,
for the entire plant will have to suspend
operations for several months, thus throw
ing GOV men out of employment. The daily
output of the shaft was l,50O tons, and in
consequence of its being idle. it will result
in the closing down of 500 coke ovens, or
one-twentieth of the whole Connellsvilie
region.
