The Manifold Uses of Luminous Con-

A method of utilizing the luminous powder

with luminous paint. As an example, the
patentees take of cement, such as y known as
Keen's Parian or other suitable make, In
varying proportions, as for instance, two
pounds to five pounds to one pound OF the

and then mould it to required shape IN the
usual way, or lay it on to ceilings or walls by
means of a troweL
The patentees attach Importance to placing
the moulded articles, as soon as they have
been dried, in bath of paraffine wax and

The Pru.sians. English and russians.

The whole character of the Prussian is
above all governmental In this lies our
streugth-as well as the reason that we PruS-
SLAMS and the north Germans generally, who
are influenced by US, are rarely attractive to
Others. In the English and in the Russian
this governmental stamp is less predominant.
The English are, notwithstanding thGir pecu-
liar manners and customs, the freest nation
in all the civilized world. Their sOci&. laws
tend 70 lay down firm but convenient laws for
human intercourse A mans position in
society depends upon the Judgment of society
only, not on the judgment of the government,
and the idea of a gentleman Is the measure
bv which the English measure man. 1t Is
otherwise with the Russian. He has no idea
Of gentIerlanlineSs But there Is small part
Of Russian society which Is as free from the
influence of the government as the English
themselves. and where the social laws are also
self-imposed. OF Russian society II general
il must be said that it bears neither the gov
ernmental stamp of Prussia nor hardly a
trace Of the order of English society; 1t Is a
loose, shapeless mass which, however by IN
dividual amiability, is astonishingly attract
i've. But the one thing which IS peculiar 20
US Prussians-nameIy, the governmental
character Of society-can be found neither
among the English nor the Russians. If we
want to be anything in society we must be
soldiers or officials, otherwise we are nothing.

The Woodworking Element and the
misunderstanding the Students
Work.
The Woodworking element is mostly COM
posed of Firms, Danes and Norwegians-
northlanders to whom art is a terribly earnest
thing and who rarely, if ever, mingle with
the more frivolous French, American and
British sections During the ten minutes of
repose which is allowed to the model every
hour these serious ones collect in little knots,
and in curious languages (which sound
vaguely like German cut up and hardened
into cakes for expOrtation) they discuss each
others work, or else one poses and the others
make pencil sketches of her.
1t is curious to know what large percent
age of these northerners there are in nearly
every studio. They are almost all serious
that is they work with definite object, their
average or work is consequently high, and,
although they do not join in the general
"frivol" of the studio, they are always ready
20 help a struggling beginner, or to give
timely criticism to any one in difficulties
There are generally two professors, who come
twice a week to correct the students work,
one in the morning, the other in the after
noon Their arrival is looked forward to
with a fearful joy. You hear a heavy step
on the stair. "C'est lui!" says some wag near
the door, and everyone begins TO rub out
suddenly found faults with frenzy, as Jacques,
the garcon, comes in to make up the fire, or
an unkempt italian puts in her head TO know
il a model is wanted.
However, when, after many false alarms,
the professor really appears, the joy of antici-
patton is lost in the horrid discovery of the
mistakes which seem TO break out all over
your drawing as you feel the master coming
nearer and nearer When you disInOunt
from your high stool, to allow him to ascend
in your place, your terroTs have not untre-
quently so quickened your eye that you know
instinctively that he viii correct parts with
which you were blandly pleased before be
came 1t would be interesting to know If this
is an instance of thought reading on the part
of the pupil, or merely the working of an
unnaturally stimulated conscience. The pro
lessons criticisms are usually very short, and
most frequently severe. Then he passes on
leaving what had been a sufficiently self
satisfied young woman a broken-hearted ruin.

MEXICO.
A Memorial ON the silver Ques-

Cry OF MEXICO. (via Galveston) Jan.
uary l3.-A memorial on the silver
question has been addressed to the Pres.
ident of the Republic by the National
Chamber of Commerce. The memoria
states that while the causes of the de-
preston Of silver are complicated and
difficult to understand, the danger is
fully comprehended, and if the depres-
sion continues it must unayoidably ruin
the mining interests Of Mexico and pro-
duce a widespread commercial crisis and
most sinister consequences. More than
three fourths Of all the merchandise that
is imported from Europe aud the United
States has to be paid for in remittances
OF Mexican dollars, because the agricul-
tural interests of the country are not
sufficiently developed to permit Of the
expectation Of products Of the soil on
large scale. The memorial calls atten-
tion to the existence in various States OF
the Republic Of taxes on the circulation
and expectation of money. The memo
rial suggests as remedies to diminish the
danger Of crisis, the abolition of taxes
ON the export of native goods; that
prompt measures be taken 10 prevent the
State governments from taxing the pre-
duction of the working people and the
Of agricultural and mining
products; that all the burdens on ex-
ports be removed; that Mexico Join in
the deliberations OF the next Monetary
Conference Of the nations; and, finally,
that direct steam navigation be essab-
lished between the Pacific ports Of Mex
leo and those Of Asia.

Sr. LOUIS, January 13.--The Gaze Of
the six Cinnamon, who were indicted
last summer for the murder Of Lou
Johnston, also Chinaman on the first
of last June. came up in the Criminal
Court to- day. but the jury had not been
selected up to adjournment this even
ing. Johnston was something OF de.
tective and had given information to the
Chief Of Police, through which a
gambling den had been broken up. A
conspiracy is alleged to have been formed
to put johnson out of the way, and what
is known as Chinese highbinder or pro-
fessional assassin was sent for TO San
Francisco TO kill Johnston. Before his
arrival, however, the defendants in this
case are said TO have entered into an
agreement with the owner OF the
gambling den above mentioned to
get rid of Johnston, they to re-
ceive four hundred dollars for
the Job. At all events the body Of
Johnston was found on the morning OF
June lst, murdered and mangled in his
room, In an alley in the lower part of
the city, and these men were arrested
and Indicted for the crime. The affair
created great excitement at the time.
Able counsel are ON both sides and a
good deal Of the dark ways Of the
heathsn Chinese is expected to be de-
yeIoped during the trial.

to the Times-Democrat from the Indian

weather has been particularly severe on
the cattle interests in the Cherokee ma.
ton, where the greater part of the stock
range is centered. The loss is heavy.
nearly every stock man losing q number
Of cattle. The Mcclellan cattle COM
pany has lost many head of cattle. ss
have all members OF the Cherokee Live
Stock Association. In the Choctaw and
Chickssaw nations the loss has also been
very great. The cattle have wandered
for miles. and. in many instances, have
been stopped by wire fences, remaining
there until frozen to death. The streams
have all been frozen over for many days,
and the want Of water and food, together
with the bitter cold, have combined to
cause the death OF an unnumbered herd
of cattle and horses. Altogether, the
cold snap has been one of the most dis
astrous to the stock raising interests in
the Indian Territory.

The Cigar Makers want 20
New YoRK, January i3.--The appli-
cation of five Of the New York cigar
makers of the international Union of
America to the main body for authority
to strike against the proposed reduction
in prices was approved by the Interna-
tionsl Union this afternoon. As soon
a. the decision was received q sub-com.
mittee of the general strike committee
waited on the firm Of Levy Brothers
and demanded a return to the old
prices. This was refused and the men
of this factory will strike tomorrow.
In the morning this circular will be
issued:
"Feiisse Workmen The Cigar Max
ers International Union has approved
the application to resist the reduction
of wages made with the introduction Of
q price list Of the Manufacturers
Association. The affiliated unions have
resolved to begin q fight at the shop of
Levy Brothers, relying on the Progress
i've Union tomake a simultaneous attack
on the factory Of John Love. Demands
in all Of the sixteen shops will have been
agreed to or the tight will already have
been opened in the above mentioned
shops when you receive this circular. To
take the employees Of all the factories
(about 70O0) on the strike at this time OF
the year would be q crime. At present
it is sufficient to have 1000 employees in
the above two shops on strike. When
the above firms have been forced TO con-
cede, then we can take another | 900 ON
a strike, and. as the season advances,
increase the number. The union will
recognize no strike inaugurated on or
after to-day. unless the said strike is
authorized by the union. The fight
before as threatens to become an excep-
tionally stubborn one In such a
fight we must have, above all things, dis
cipline. Maintain the necessary disci-
pine and victory is ours. In case the
manufacturers declare general lockout
you will calmly remain at your place and
await its execution. Work as little as
possible, but remain at your place."
The Cigarmakers' international Union
Of this city has called mass meeting OF
the trade for Friday night. The strikers
are confident OF victory.
