CHINESE MUSIC.
The Instruments of Torture Used by Ce-
lestial Musicians.

lestial Musicians.
As to the instruments there are sew
eral guitars, particularly absurd two
string violin, flutes, telescope kind
of trombone, long trumpet, cymbals,
clappers, triangles, with gongs and
drums in endless variety. Elegant Chi
nese of a former period used to play on
the china long kind of either that has
seven strings. Once there were ch'ins
with fifty strings, but very sensitive
emperor-Huang T1-having heard a
Miss Su perform on it, twas inn
pressed so deeply; and became so
sorrowful by its means that he made
up his mind that he could only
stand one-half of his emotion and
live, so he had an imperial order
issued, whereby this instrument
was deprived of twenty-five of it's
strings. The erh-hsien, or ten-string ed
violin, is met with all over China.
The neck is hollow bamboo, the body
cocoanut shell. The ten strings are
tuned in fifths. A very ingenious and
dreadfully complicated musical. appa-
ratus must be the yang-ch in, or foreign
harpsichord. 1t is zither-like in shape,
but the strings are criss-cross and rest
on two long bridges, so that with the
sixteen strings you have forty-eieht
different notes. The flute, ti-tzu, has
eight holes, one blown through,
another covered with a membrane,
and seven are played upon. The
mouth-hole seems to be in the
middle. AS to the Chinese clarionet,
any one who has heard that instru-
ment of torture once will never be
anxious to have its ear-splitting sounds
repeated. 1t accentuates all the very
worst qualities of the European instru-
ment.
When you come to real noise produc.
able by wood the Chinese show supreme
talent. There is the gu. 1t is a wooden
tiger mounted on hollow box. The
backbone of the tiger is cut in ridges,
like saw. You run your stick across
your yu, and then you make worse
noise than the American small boy who,
with his hoop-stick, irritates your nerves
by drawing it athwart your picket fence.
Gongs we need not describe, nor bells,
for they are well known. The Chinese
orchestra employs stone, and constructs
various instruments out of hard, cal
| careous rock.
Paucity of musical thought is, we
think, Chinese characteristic. We be-
lieve this is perceptible in their voices in
the way they talk. Conversationally the
intonation never rises nor falls. A Chi
naman acquiring English rarely shades
his speech by vocal touches. If he SYM
pathizes, he is only little louder A
recent traveller notices this, and says.

LAUNDRY MACHINERY.
Great Improvements Made in Devices for
Wholesale Washing.

Great Improvements Made in Devices for
Wholesale Washing.
s'The manufacture of special machinery
for laundry use is a new thing" said a
dealer to a reporter. 1.-The great growth
of the business has required machinery
for practical laundry work simple in
operation, durable and strong. Take,
for instance, washing-machines. There
are three kinds which have stood the
test of use; they are the old dash-wheel,
the plunger washer and the plain cylin-
der. All that lift and drop the wash in
q mass are virtually dash-wheels. The
original and best form, a deep, narrow
cylinder with four compartments, is
still used by manufacturers of linen
goods. Next came the plunger washers,
and now the plain cylinder is the favor
tie. The last has proved capable of
doing the most satisfactory work by
revolving few times and reversing. In
this the goods may be washed, rinsed
and blued without removal. The ques-
ton is often asked if washing machine
will do its work clean without hand
rubbing. The reversing washer not
only can be made to do so, but does
actually wash all that is put into it
clean, without even looking over, in
public laundries that turn out the
finest work in the world. 1t is in
teresting to trace the steps OF i'm
provement in washers. The dash
wheel, the best of its kind in its day,
depended upon the fall of the wash in a
mass, which drove the suds through the
goods and rubbed them together, thus

A WONDERFUL CAT.
The Service 1t Rendered Birdie, q
Which She Will Never Forget.

The Service 1t Rendered Birdie, and
Which She Will Never Forget.
One day poor, half-frozen kitten
came to Birdie Changers house.
Birdie had no brothers or sisters to play
with. so she took the starved little gray
cat in and made it welcome. She
warmed it, and fed and gave it good
bed to sleep in. Under such kind care,
the stranger grew fat and sleek. BY
the time it was grown, it became a
most wonderful cat. Birdie named her
pet Marble, because it purred SO loud.
Marble and Birdie became insep-
arabic friends.
The cat followed Birdie everywhere.
1t was very large and strong-as big
as a small dog. For cat, it was as
tonishing how intelligent MARBLE was.
1t had many cunning ways, and
BRIDES papa taught it to perform
tricks like dog. Papa would clasp
his hands and put his arms out in front
of the cat as it stood upon the rug.
Then he would say: Jump, Warble"
And Marble would jump through his
arms and out over his hands as if it
understood just what was meant,
which, to be sure, it did. If Marble
was watching for a mouse at hole
and any body came near, it was accus-
toned to raise its paw as a sign to the
person to keep back and not make
noise.
One day Marble did Birdie service
which she will never forget as long as
she lives.
1t was a summer morning, and Birdie
took puss's dish of milk out beside the
garden wall, as usual. She called War
BILE, and heard low NEW just beside a
crevice in the stones. Marble was
watching for something mouse,
Birdie thought. He lifted his paw to
warn his little mistress to keep back,
but she went on and said:
''Come, Marble, this rich new milk
is better than a mouse. Come and lap
it,
Suddenly Marbles eyes cleaned like
two balls of fire. He waved his tail
back and forth in fury. He looked
like tiger about to spring. He raised
his paw again to warn Birdie off. But
she was determined to see what was
disturbing her cat SO, and took several
steps forward. She heard a rafting in
the grass. Marble leaped into the air
at the same moment, and came down
upon the spot where she heard the rat
thing. There was more rafting, and a
tremendous Kissing and flashing and
noise. The girl was frightened, and
screamed aloud.
Her mother and grandmother ran to
her in an instant. They saw, with hor-
ror, the cat dragging a rattlesnake
out of the grass. The child had been
almost upon it. Marble had set his
strong, sharp teeth into the back of the
reptiles neck and broken its SPINE

"What is a manglep"
''All ironing machines used in the
laundry for other than starched work
are termed mangles. The old success
full mangle consisted of heavy box and
| rollers. Around the latter the linen to
be smoothed was wound, and when, by
suitable mechanism, the box was lifted
the roller was placed beneath and the
linen subjected to the pressure of the
box, which moved back and forth upon
the roller. This box mangle has never
fully given way to any heated mangle,
with one exception. This exception is
one the principle of construction
of which is based on the use
of at least three rollers, a steam
heated roller or cylinder and two COW
cred rollers, to hold the goods in con-
| tact with the cylinder, thus securing
an extended ironing surface, and con-
stantly presenting dry, absorbing
surface to the damp linen. The pres
sure is obtained by springs, which
press down upon the boxes at either
end of the upper rolls. The cylinder is
raised and lowered by turning the adj
distinguished. 1t is mistake to sup
pose that even in starched work pol
ish can not be given by roller with
out speeding it. A high gloss can not
be so obtained, but many laundrymen
get good results when an extreme pol
ish is not desired. Among other inter-
esting articles now used in laundries
| are polishing irons with either a smooth,
perforated or morocco-finished face;
steam-jacket starch kettles, of heavy
copper and strong enough to resist
one hundred pounds steam pressure;
| linen fiber baskets mounted on wheels;
hand collar-ironers, with which as many
as one thousand eight hundred collars
and cuffs have been ironed in a day;
shapers for collars and cuffs, which is q
very small steel roller, pressing upon a
rubber roller; cord and eyelet raisers, by
which seams on collars and cuffs are
raised, and patent shirt-dampener. -

A RICH STRIKE.

Returning Attention to the Old Placer
Gold Mines in chihuahua, Mexico. Devel-
OBS Plenty Of Gold--water. However, Al
most Worth Its Weight in the Precious
Metal.
Ell PAsO, Tex, Feb. 12.-Some Hery
rich ore samples of gold-bearing quartz
reached this city yesterday from the old
placers of Guadalupe, in ALBANIA County,
State of Chihuahua, Mexico. The aban-
doned placers, like those of California
gulch, near Leadville, Col, have now be-
come busy mining camp. Americans as
we'll as Mexicans, are fiocking thither in
search of gold. Great scarcity OF water in
the locality makes this commodity COM
mand fabulous price. DIR. Roman
Guerrero, member of the Mexican Con-
gress, arrived here to-day, and says this
new discovery is likely to prove OF vast
importance on account of the great guam
tity found. Don Francisco Ruiz, of Chi
huahua, says that daily many "car-
goes" which are equivalent to
800 American pounds, reach the
city, where gold-dust is sold at twenty
three dollars per ounce. A number OF
citizens of the State of Oaxaca were the
first to uncover the new fields, and their
mine is reported to contain twenty-five
"threads" or pay streams of gold in one
fissure vein. The city of Chihuahua is
much excited over the find and has sent
General Pacheco, Minister of Public
Works, samples of the ore.
