"winter Storage" for Children.

Charles d. Kellogg, the secretary Of the
Charity Organization society, was speaking
the other day about certain peculiar phases
of charity work among the poor of this city.
There are many families in New York, ~ he
said, who put away their children in winter
because they cannot care for them at home
store them, you might say, as richer person
stores his furniture or his clothing
The children, Mr.. Kellogg said, are put into
institutions where they are fed, clothed and
kept warm. In spring they are taken out
and are allowed to run the streets until the
approach Of winter, when they are gathered
up and put back into the institutions again.
Many families send their children temporarily
10 an institution and leave them there until
they are old enough to work Then they are
taken out and others put in, but this is some
what different from what might be called
The 'winter storage" of children. There are
many public institutions which provide a
temporary home in this way.
During the winter nearly all of these insti-
buttons are full to overfowing. In few in
ytances the parents pay nominal price for
board, but in most cases the board, clothing
and care of the children are entirely free.
These institutions are entirely distinct from
the day nurseries and poor schools, which
care for children during the day only. These
latter are used principally by poor widows
who are compelled to go out to work, but
who cannot bring themselves to give up their
children at first.-New York World.

Wire scenery for Theatres.

Wire theatrical scenery is the latest inven
tion in theatrical furniture, and to all appear
ances seems likely to come into practical ap-
plicf- very soon. A painter, Ernst Tep-
per- set himself to discover a non-combustible
material for scenery, and III the end achieved
such good results that his invention has met
with the approval of those parties who are
technically conversant with theatrical re-
quiremenIs of this description, and shortly II
sample o, the invention will be ready 10 put
into pra ctical application. The only fabric
available appeared TO him to be the fine
woven wire gauze, such as is common for
blinds to the lower panes of glass of windows
and also used for kitchen and pantry safes
This fabric, which is fireproof, can be woven
so fine that scenes can be painted on it and
still be as flexible as linen.
A first difficulty, however, presented itself.
for when painted upon it was porous and
could be seen through, and all the painting
in the world would not improve this. as tho
paint passed through the meshes and only
adhered fast to the wire in patches. Topper
set to work, and has now succeeded in
making paste or composition which adheres
qui.e tenaciously TO the wires, stops up the
pores, and which reither cracks nor peels of,
and forns flexible grounding upon which
the painting can be carried out After this
paste was invented it became possible to en-
ploy this wire gauze for stage scenery and
in Is very few weeks the first practical trials
of it on large scale will be made at the
Court theatre, Munich. Scene painters e.
Berlin are already in treaty with Topper,
and if the Munich trial turns out satisfac-
toriIy all the German theatres will soon be
supplied with the new material for their
scenes, as it is only slightly heavier and a
little dearer than that now in use
