SECRETARY ENDICOTT'S REPORT

SECRETARY ESDIooTT has made his
report to the president of the admin
istration of the war department dur
ing the fiscal year ended June 30 last.
The total expenditures we're 81, ,650,-
1O7; appropriations for the current
fiscal year amount to S59,679, ,935,
and estimates for the fiscal year end
ing June 30, 1890, aggregate SA, ,632,.
507, as follows: Salaries and contin-
gent expenses, s1,79s, 800; military es-
adjustments, support Of armory and
military academy, S25, 5,293,3 1878; public
works. including river and harbor i'm :
provements, S13,7S5,234; miscella-
neous objects, S3,575,OOO. The esti-
mates for river and harbor improve
ments represent the probable cost of
such Improvements, if approved by
congress.
The secretary suggests that the
Chiricahua Apaches be instructed
and employed in agriculture in Ari-
zona, where only they can be happy.
The secretary renews the recon-
mendation contained in his last an
nual report as to examination for pro-
motion in the army, and says that the
necessity for such examination grows
more and more.
Some suggestions are made respect
ing the large percentage Of desertions
from the army.
He endorses recommendations fol
new buildings for soldiers quarters
a new academic building, new gym
nasium, separate building for the
department of natural and expert
mental philosophy, and the purchas,
Of the Kingsley estate.
The secretary says all states and
territories now have an active militia
sufficient under the regulations to en-
title them to receive ordnance ant
quartermaster's stores from the Unit
ed States, excepting the state of Ar
kansas and the territories of Arizona
Idaho and Utah. 1t is hoped yer.
soon practical instruction in sea coas
defenses and the handling of heav.
artillery may be given to the militia
and officers of the army may be reliet
on to.give jealous and cordial assist
ance. "By generous supply of am
munition for target practice to col
leges where army officers are serving
as instructors" the secretary says, 81
is possible that competitive contests
in rife shooting might in time becom,
as popular with some of these inland
colleges as boat racing is now at the
universities of our seaboard."
The attention of congress is again
invited to the defenseless condition Of
seacoast and lake frontiers, and liberia
and immediate action is recommended
looking to the effective defense of oul
principal seaports, for which defense
appropriations to the amount of So,
$4,000 are asked
For working the submarine mine
and torpedo system S1,39O,0OO is
asked, and the construction of tor
pedo shed for the storage of torpedo
material for use in San Francisco har.
Dor, to cost about $4,000, is recon-.
mended.
As to the the soldiers home he
recommends a little light, regular
daily labor for such of the inmates as
are able to perform it, to relieve the
monotony of their life.
He recommends an assistant secre-
tary Of war to enable the proper and
efficient administration of the wlr de-
partment.

a. Bronson Alcott was known TO be ut
terly opposed TO the eating Of meat-a
strict vegetarian. Some twelve to fifteen
years ago he was a welcome visitor in
many of the cities of the West. His
coming was hailed with delight Dur
ing one of these visits he was unusually
pale and weary. He wasa connoisseur
III the cooking of oatmeal, of which he
always partOok in the morning. At this
time his hostess, feeling sure that his
health was impaired, sent for q pound
O beef, had it slightly cooked, the Juice
extracted, and well stirred into a dish
of oatmeal. Mr.. Alcott ate with unus-
al relish, and discoursed eloquently
upon the virtue of grain that waved in
the sun and air. The next morning the
same dish was repeated, and through
out his stay he partook of the pudding
and beef juice.
1t was noticeable that he gained rap
idly in health and flesh. Before he left
he remarked:
"Your oatmeal has been very
strengthening. You must tell me Just
how it is made, and l must take away
4 package of the meal"
"Mr. Alcott, /" was the reply, "there is
genius in good cooking. and it is hard
to impart it. Only come again, and YOU
shall end the d sh equally palatabe."
Some days after lie had returned
home, rested and refreshed, Mrs. X. re-
lated the story III great glee to her own
club.

Frank MiiletsS RuSe.

Everybody has heard of Frank Mil
let. He paints pictures and writes
magazine articles in lines Of peace, but
when war is "on' he becomes war
correspondent" nd is likely to turn
up i'll the Soudan, lie Transvaal or the
Balkans. But there was time when
to exhibitions, - IL sure, and good
ones, but no one paid any particular
attention to them or said anything
about them. One day he conceived an
idea. He painted picture of lady
in black sitting on a bright red sofa,
standing against IA vivid yellow back
ground. The effect was Just trife
startling. Friends who saw it in pro-
cess of production expostulated with
! him, and asked what he was going to
do with it. They were simply astound-
ed when he announced that he was
going to send 1t to an exhibition. They
labored with him, bat in vain. They
told him that the critics would "wipe
the floor" with him. "They can't do
that without mentioning me-" said
| Frank, quietly, "an1 they've never done
that yet" 10 the exhibition the pic

twenty feet on either side of it. You
couldn't help looking ct it. 1t simply
knocked you down and held you there.
The critics got into towering passion
over it. They wrote whole columns
about it. They exhausted the English
language in abusingit. They ridiculed
the committee that permitted it to be
hung. They had squibs and gibes
about it, but every time they spoke of
it they mentioned Frank Millet. He
! suddenly became the best known artist
in town. Somebody, because of the
stir that it had made, bought the pic
| ture at a good price, and removed it to
the seclusion of his own home. When
J the next exhibition came off Frank had
another picture ready, one of very
differ ut sort, and very good, bus no
! better than others which had been ex-
hibited before The critics had much
to say about it, and "noted with pleas
ure the marked Improvement" that Mr.
Millet had made, "an evidence" as they
modestly put it, 'ofthe value of criti-
cism, even though severe, to a young
artist" And the majority of them
never saw that Frank had simply com

How Rain is Produced.

Did it ever occur to the reader that
there Is just as much water in the air
above him on n clear, bright dav as on
cloudy or rainy one? Rain does not
come from somewhere else, or if it is
waited over you by the wind from else
where, the water that was over you is
simply waited on to some other place.
What is said above explains this.
Water is absorbed in the air above us.
at certain temperature, and it be-
comes insensible. Cool that air bv a
cooler atmosphere or by electrical or
chemical influences and the moment
the air becomes cooler it gives up some
of the watery particles that were in
sensible or invisible at the higher tenn
perature. These small particles thus
given out unite, and, when enough of
them coalesce, obstruct the light and
show the clouds When enough of
them unite to be too heavy to float in
the air they le9in to descend; pair
after par Of them come together until
ralndrop Is formed. One of the mi
mute randrops Is made mp of millions
of infinitely small watery particles.
Air passing over the cold tops of noun
talns IS cooled down so that it gives up
good deal % the concealed watery
Vapor, and hence little rain falls in the
region along the lee side of such noun
tains. This is why little rain falls in
Colorado and in other places north and
south Of the State. The prevailing
winds blow to the west. and the cool
| tops Of the Rocky Mountains lower
their temperature and thus take out
the moisture that would otherwise fall
in rain

Lenora lay there, between life and
death. for two long months. All those
long weeks there could scarcely be the
slightest noise heard in the whole
house; everything seemed shrouded in
death.
Noll seldom if ever left the house,
and then but for very short time.
Gertana was hopeful and patient,
never uttering one word of complaint,
vet she sat day and night by the bed
side of the girl who had unwittingly
stolen her place.
Every morning Sylvester would
linger long, and silently pace the floor
in front of the room door where she
Law whom he so madly loved.
The whole household regarded Lee
nora as something almost sacred, and
took delight in doing all that could be
done for the poor little patient.
Every morning the nurse would go
to the door of the sick chamber and
report to the weary, anxious listener
outside always the same sad, unwel-
come, Just the same"
Noll received this same answer for
two long months. He never asked how
she was, or said anything when the
nurse answered his silent inquiry
Everyone seemed to know his thoughts
and wants from the expression of his
ewes. On the first morning of the
third month, Lenora began to notice
intelligently the things in her room,
and there were good signs of her con-
valescence. The news brought Joy to
the whole house, and Sylvester Noll
seemed another man.
Lenora grew better rapidly, and soon
became conscious of her position and
of the past
As neither Mrs. King nor any other
of the watchful patients old enemies
appeared, she began to feel freer and
more cheerful.
One day Gertana sent word to the
sick chamber that lady friend would
like to see the patient. "Who can the
friend be-" thought Lenora. L am
here, away from all that is near and
dear to me, and who that is friend of
mine can know that | am here, pris-
oncc of that awful man? Oh, / must
not think of him, for | want to get quite
well again, that / may escape, and /
hope | shall be more successful than |
was the last time Who can that friend
be? Well she may come in, whoever
she may be.
Nurse, You may admit that lady who
wants to see me.
Every well, miss"
The nurse then opened the door, and
Gertana entered, looking very beauti-
full in long white morning wrapper,
with a bunch of red roses at her throat
and in the heavy coils of her jet-black
hair
Lenora could not utter one word as
the beautiful Italian entered; in fact,
she knew hardly what to say. She did
not think it possible that this beautiful
dark lady was n friend, for she had
been with the man she so much feared
when they ate dinner in the hall
All the events of that night flashed
through Lenora's mind, and she looked
Up at her visitor rather suspiciously.

\ Relic of the Blizzard.

A relic of the blizzard was discovered
in West Twenty-Third Street, New
York, last week, it having for nearly six
months defied the blighIing effects of
the sun. In front of the American Art
School there stood large showcase
with an iron base. Last week the base
was moved. The task was accomplished
with difficulty, as the iron, having cor
rOded, adhered to the stone pavement
But when it was pried loose, under it
was found large bucketful of snow, as
fresh-looking as when it made its ap-
pearance on that memorable March
day. The supposition is that the snow
was forced under the case by the wind
and the corroding of the iron base shut
out the air and prevented any interfer-
ence with the deposit by the warm
breezes of the summer.

TWO PERSONS AsPHYxIATED.
A Man and a Woman Found Dead in a
Coney Island Hotel.

New YORK, Sept. PA man and n
woman registered at the Willow
House, on Breeze Avenue, Coney
Island, last night, as P. Lynch
engaged room. The proprietor '
of the hotel, Mr.. Rosenthal, became
alarmed by their non-appearance this
morning, and a messenger was sent to
their room. The servant received no
response to the knock. A slight odor OF
gas coming from the room excited sus-
picion, and the proprietor broke
in the door. On the bed were the
bodies of the couple. The gas was
escaping full head and the couple had
died from asphyxiation. They were
identified as Patrick Lynch and Fannie
Kelly. Whether death was intentional
or accidental is not known.

love.

Were there never flower on earth,
To speak with its language sweet,
And never a moon to build
path for the wanderers feet,
Were all of the oets dead,
And fallen were every star,
We're there no more whir of the strings
OF the trenulous guitar
While ne in the darkness sings,
Under the blossomed bough
To one in the dark above,
Would there bel wonder new-
Such thing as love?
Or is love n flower that grows
With petals soft as kiss,
S And breath as sweet as a rose9
Is love like this?
Oh, as long as the gentle hand
Can loosen the bands OF pain,
AZ long as the prayer outpoured
Can save from the tempter's chain,
While Pity can heal with tears,
And Plenty can give to Need,
While Sorrow has wounds to bind,
And Hunger is still to feed,
Love will be wan ed, know,
And love viii grow.
For it changes not with the moon,
1t fadeth not with the cold,
Nor dies with the singers tune,
Nor grows with the seasons old,
But it flames the brighter still,
And it always Will

English Cotton Spinning.

IIVIH IHt IJTy bOOUs NNTOnlCIe.
owing to the perfection of her spin
nIng machinery and the large amount
OF capital invested in the business, En-
gland spins more wooden and cotton
yarn than all the other countries COM
blned, and yarns are among the most
important of her exports. The quality
OF cotton yarn in England is expressed
by counts or numbers denoting the
number Of hanks in pound, signifying
coarseness or fneness. This rule of
numbering is very simple, being the
number Of hanks. each $40 yards long,
requisite to form one pound in weight.
Thus No. 40 denotes yarns of which
forty hanks weigh one pound.
