Mrs. Emma ID. f.. hewitt Southworth
stumbled in n way upon her popularity
as n novelist. Intellectually, her work
has never been above mediocrity-it
may have been below-but it has
brought in far more money than if it
had beer finer and stronger. The aver
age novel-reader is neither fastidious
o critical: his sole desire is to be slim
ulated and to occupy time, and eXtrava-
giant, improbable commonplace will
serve to this end. Mrs. hewitt, having
been married at %, was deserted by her
husband after bearing him two chill
dren, and thrown entirely on her own
resources. She taught school in Wash
ington, ID. C., and tried to exc out sub
s%istence by making manuscript. 1t was
hard to tell which of these two arduous,
wearing employments produced the
less.
She suffered and toiled until "Retri-
bItion,' a story she had written for The
National Era, was issued in book form
and unexpectedly had an extraordinary
sale. 1t relieved her necessities and
demonstrated her ability to provide for
herself by means she had not antici-
pated. Since that day-a period of
thirty-seven years-she has turned out
sensational tales at the rate of two or
three annually, which have beer de-
voured by the multitude and ignored by
the discriminating. Their titles sound
like newspaper headlines, and prepare
the reader for the highly spiced banquet
that has been prepared. Although near

II may be taken for granted that the
worse use to which IA river can be put is
TO turn sewage into it. Unfortunately II
great deal Of sewage finds its way into
the Thames, and in u short time, il is To
be feared, the quantity will he materially
increased. The new scheme for the
drainage of Richmond involves the cree
ton OF sewage-works ON the river bank
mt Mortlake, exactly opposite Grove park,
one of the most charmingly rural por-
tons of Chiswick. OF course there will
be a large annual expenditure upon
chemicals; the sewage will be "com-
plctely deodorized;" and the enluent
water discharged into the river will be
pure and transparent. 1t unluckily
happens that we know what that means.
This same deodorizing process is in opcr-
alton at the Chiswick sewage-beds. Quite
apart from the odors, the pollution of
the steam and the Disagreement of tho
river bank at Mortlake are serious mat
ters. At the present rate of progress ii

A young man of exceptionally steady
and cautious habits was employed some
time ago by ono of our leading wood
working establishments. His steady,
cautious nature led to promotion, and a
part of his duty required his presence
where there are many rapidly revolving
pulleys and belts. 1t was noticed that
he gradually got to "fooling' with the
belts, and he was warned of the danger
by some of the old hands. Tho other

Much interest has been excited among
engineers by the construction, under di-
rcction of the Russian government. Of
some locomotive cars of n special type
for the Transcaspian railway, and built
so as To meet two difficulties, viz. the
waterless character of n large section of
the line, and the insignificant ordinary
traffic. To meet the former the locomo-
tive car is provided with tanks contain
ing sufficient water to last seventy miles;
and, as the waterless stretch from Mi
chaelovsk to Kazantchik is about fifty
miles in length, this supply is
amply sufficient under any contingent
cies that may occur With regard to
the second difficulty, the locomotive is
constructed with n car connected to it,
and capable of conveying eighty pas
sengers. The locomotive car is warmed
by the exhaust steam from the engine,
by which arrangement an important
economy in the consumption of fuel re

While there are comparatively few
rich people in Christiania, and only one
millionaire in all Norway, one never
sees any evidence of extreme poverty,
want or misery, and Hdoubt If Christ
iania has any slums. The poorest are
clean, thrifty and intelligent, and every
one practices economy without any
manufactures. The Dampk jokken, or
steam kitchen, is an institution that
could well be introduced in all our cities,
if the working people could be made to
%patronize it. The Dampk jokken was O.
tablished by a company DESTROYS of help
ing those of slender means to live
cheaply, and it serves a dinner every day
at a price only well covering the cost of
the food. The serving of these . and 10
cent dinners even pay a slight profit
each year above expenses, and gives the
~philanthro pists n little return for their
Investment.
The daily menu is published in the
newspapers, and from o until 3
o'clock the customers are served with n
thick, rich soup, fish or meat, with pota-
toes and n simple dessert. They can
take their plates and be helped and eat
their dinner at the tables in the room,
or they can buy portions of any one dish
and carry it home with them. Hun

The Discovery of Anthracite.
From the Scientific 4 znerican.

Anthracite was discovered in Pennsyl-
vania In 1870 by Nicholas Allen. This
Allen, according to the stories and tradi-
tlOns that have been handed down about
MIN. must have been kind Of Rip Van
Wrinkle. He had come down from the
Lake Champlains lumber region, and
opened an inn on the summit OF Broad
mountain. For time he led wander.
ing existence, hunting, fishing and lum-
bering, while mis- wife attended to the
wants OF thirsty travellers. In one of his
hunting excursions he camped out at the
foot Of the Broad mountain, at spot
where a coal vein cropped out, and, upon
lighting a fire, was astonished at the inn
mense neat IL threw off. He also saw
that some OF the black stone had become
red hot. He dug some OF it and carried 1t
home. when his wife, more practical
than himself, pronounced 1t coal.
They saw the coal crop out in abundance
and visions of fortunes that might be
realized out OF i: flashed through their
minds simultaneously. So, disposing of
their effects, they loaded two large COW
cred wagons with the coal, and set out Tor
Philadelphia, with the Intention OF mar
keting it there and discovering its true
value. They drove along the banks OF the
SchuyIkill, sleeping in the open air at
night. At Pottstown three OF tnelr horses
died. and the coal was dumped into the
river. Wearied and dlsheartened, the
palr returned to the old place at the sum-
nit of the mountain, and shortly after
ward Allen laid his faithful wife to rest
over the coal vein that proved their ruin,
and turned his face toward the West,
where, after an uneventtul career ne en-
listed for the campaign under Harrison,
and fell at TiDpecanoe.
