Bengalese on account Of discovery that

themselves, and which they offer to their
gods is beng adulterated with fat The
Mohammedans fear thet theig ghee
may be larded; the Hindus are
equally afraid that their ghee Is
mixed with the fat OF oxen or of sheep
To eat such fat is In their eyes deadly
sin, TO offer 1t to their gods an infamous
sacrilege. Hence legislation In hot haste

COLONEL GEORGE NOBLE, General
Agent of the Texas & Pacific, at Dallas,
Tex, has received jug of water from
the Texas & Pacific artesian well at
Pecos City, accompanied by note
from the Superintendent of the Rio
Grande Division to the effect that the
water has been thoroughly tested on
the road and that the engineers pro-
nounce it first rate. The we'll is 2l3
feet deep, and the water flows from it
at the rate of 1000 gallons per hour.
The water is clear as crystal and has a
slightly brackish taste, but is good for
drinking purposes. The supposition
is that water can be reached at the
same or probably shallower depth
all over the Pecos Valley.

The prevailing impression at the
Navy Department, according to a
Washington dispatch. is that Secretary
Whitney contemplates the reorganiza-
ton of the Navy Department on his
own responsibility, and that this will
be one of his first acts after his return
from vacation. He is of the opinion
under the law he can arrange. the
duties of the bureaus as he sees fit as
long as he does not change their desig-
nation. He will appoint paymaster
general and chief naval constructor.
but will transfer much of the work
heretofore carried on under these Off
GERS to other bureaus. Higher officials
OF the Navy Department say they are
of the opinion the Secretary will wait
until Congress especially authorizes
him to reorganize, but they seem to
think reorganization at the present
time would add greatly to the efficiency
of the department.

IT has been decided to alter the nlans

IT has been decided to alter the plans
of the Garfield monument at Cleve-
land, o., and make it $50 feet in height
instead of 225, as originally designed.
The architect came to the conclusion
that the tower would be too high if ex-
ended 225 feet. The height now pro-
posed will be sufficient to give a COM
manding view of the country for miles
around, and when completed the mon
ument will be plainly visible from any
portion of the city. The change will
effect saving of $4,000. This will be
expended on the interior and in pur-
chasing fine statuary to be placed on
and about the tower.

A PERPETUAL GEORGE.

Within an hours drive from Philadel
phis may be witnessed one of the strang-
est sights IN this country-a perpetual
ice gorge. This gorge exists at the foot
of the Blue Mountains, back of Swatts
wood Lake and Vaudeville, and is but
few miles west of Newtown. 1t is sew
eral hundred yards in extent, from ten
to thirty feet deep, with numerous caves
and olefts in the rock where the ice lies.
The main gorge is located but short
distance from the mountain and the shade
at that spot is very dense, the sun ap
parently never penetrating it. The en-
tire bottom Of the gorge is covered with
thick, clear ice, and the crevices and
caves are filled with it. That is a natur
al ice house there can be no doubt
Hundreds of tons of ice might be taken
out without appreciably decreasing the
quantity. Much of this great mass has
doubtless lain there for years, the ice
gradually melting on top and being add
ed to each year. The thermometer,
which dur ng shot spell' registered
one hundred and three degrees in New
town, marked just thirty eight degrees
at the same time in the bottom of the gorge
too cold for person to remain there
any length of time. A few feet from one
of the gorge q spring of the most delici-
Gus, sparkling water bubbles up through
the ice. 1t tastes slightly of iron, and is
very satisfying to the thirst. This water
stands at thirty-four degrees-abont as
cold as one could comfortably drink it.

SOMETHING FOR THE GIRLS.

Every housekeeper knows how careful
treatment keeps table linen and house
hold furniture. Girls do not always
know or remember that great care of
their own possessions will often enable
them to dress nicely on very little mon
ey. A lady says:
"When L was girl there was one of
my young friends who was distinguished
for making her things last Her dres :,
hats, gloves, and ribbons were a marvel
of durability. fused to wonder how she
managed to make them last 80 without
their looking shabby, but | ceased to do
so after l had visited her at her own
home. The reason why her clothes wore
so long was that she took such good care
of them. Her dresses were brushed and
folded away carefully, aud the slightest
spot on them was removed as soon as it
was discovered. Her hat was wrapped
in an old pocket handkerchief, and put
away in a box as soon as done with, the
strings and laces being Strengthened and
rolled out most symmetrlcally each time.
Her gloves were never foldei together,
but were pulled out straight and laid fiat
in a box, one upon the other, each time
they were used, the tiniest hole being
mended almost before it had time to show
itself But the thing that impressed me
most was the care she bestowed on her
ribbons. When making up bows she
used to line the upper part Of the ribbon
with white paper, and this not only pre-
vented the ribbon from becoming limp
and creased, but kept it clean, 80 that
when the bow was solid OF one side she
could turn the ribbon, and the part that
had been covered came out looking new
aud fresh. That girl married and
brought up large flmily. Her husband
had to fight his way, and did SO bravely,
and was unusually successful, for he be
came wealthy. But his prosperity wa
due quite as much to his wife's care and
economy in saving money as it was to his
in making it.
