technics on the bridge at the time Of its
dedication. and many thousand people
gathered on the levee to witness it. On
tue river were number of steamboats,
covered with spectators, which anchored
N md stream and remained there during
the display This experience was rather
unsatisfactory, as the height of the
bridge and its distance from most of the
points on the levee greatly lessened the
effects of the gigantic set pieces and the
huge rockets and other works displayed
1t is not yet fully determined whether the
display Of fireworks will be given, but if
II is 1t will probably be on the western
approach to the bridge, and the delegates
to the convention will be taken out on the
river for an excursion and review of the
display
The other features of the programme
will be military and civic parade and an
illumination OF the city One of the nota
bic features. in fact the most notable
feature. OF the annual fall festivities here
IS the gorgeous illumination of the bust
ness streets of the city with colOred and
electric lights, transparencies of cathedral
glass etc This feature was never more
beautifully developed than in October last
when a glance down one of the citys
principal streets was like a momentary
view Of Aladdin ieweled palace, kaleido
scopic In its prismatic views The illumi
nation during the convention will unfort
unately be necessarily confined to one
street. The expense attending it is SO
enormous that any further application for
the short period during the convention
will be far beyond the means of the enter
tainment committee The illumination as
planned will be on Olive street, the thor
oughtare on which the convention hall is
situated 1t will extend from Fourth to
fourteenth street At the intersec
tion of each intervening street will
be erected an arch of heavy gas
pipe, covered with burners, shaded by
crystal globes of many hues The arches
will be different in design. and those at
the beginning and end Of the illuminated
section will be of great size and will bear
across their faces huge Democratic mot
toes In flaming gas jets On either side
OF the street between the arches will run
a series of pyramids of colored lights ar
ranged at intervals The effect along the
entire length of the street will be brilliant
In the extreme From one or more of the
arches will be suspended transparencies
of cathedral glass with the pictures of
frover Cleveland and other Democratic
leaders, displayed in beautiful and har
monlous coIors These transparencies

his committee returned from Washington,
a genera meeting Of citizens interested in
the work was called and an organization
perfected A general committee of ar
rangements, composed OF about fifty
prominent citizens was appointed by

made chairman. An executive committee
was then appointed to take immediate

A WASHINGTON dispatch says:
Chairman Mills is confident the tariff
reform bill will pass the House, and has
challenged the Republicans to a deci-
sive test, without long and useless de-
bate on the bill by sections. He invites
them to move to chop off it's head by
striking out the enacting clause, as was
done with Col. Morrison's horizontal
bill. If this is decided in the negative
the bill will at once be put on its pas
sage. If decided in the Affirmative the
bill will be a dead duck. The Repub-
lican leaders are considering Mr.. Millss
proposition, but will hardly accept it.

II the uuuniformed and unwashed were

grow beyond control. The militia force
Of the city is rather small at present. but
1t Is expected that the uniformed clubs
will make a very fine appearance. The
number of Democratic clubs which have

enormous The experience of the Demo

confidence In itself. but the munitions OF
war as well. The representation from the
individual clubs in large cities will not be
as great as Che members of the clubs had
hoped or No the citizens of st Louis
might wish. II was found upon investi
cation by the representatives Of these
clubs that the accommodations for those
who desired to come would be insufficient.
Not that st. Louis lacks hotel facilities,
but the attendance on the Democratic
convention, to Judge from present indica-
tions, will be unparalleled For this rea.

The Italian Colony OF London.

The recent investigations, and the
facts brought to Light concerning Italian
immigration, suggest to me how COM
paratively little that race have colomzed
here in proportion to some OF the greater
European cities, and particularly Lon
don, where, in certain quarters, they
have successfully besieged and ousted Its
former inhabitants, and taken possession
of their tenements with slow though GER
tain acquisition. The settlement in Lon
don is bounded On one side by Saffron
Hill, and on the ether by street that
is familiar to the IOndoner who takes an
occasional prowl about out Of the way
places, as Leather Lane, Black Hill,
Summer street, ard Eyre street hill tor
you see / have e memory, are all IN
cluded in its precincts, and are all over
crowded with swarthy faced organ
grinders, ice cream vendors, ragpickers,
picturesque olive skinned women and
dirty faced children. Wrinkled old
crones in gay attire exchange salutations
through the windows Of the dilapidated
and filthy houses that line these narrow
thoroughfares. Nor does the masculine
element lounging about the doorways en-
tirely discard its native dress as It does
here. The men cling to their poniards,
TO rudely embroidered cloaks and waist
coats and wear felt hats tilted to one
side and adorned now and then with a
faded feather. The younger blades
alnuse themselves with ali manner OF
curious games, though have never OBJ
served among them the mania for toss
ing pennies, for which sport our little
bare headed lazzarone bootblacks seem
10 have such passion.
The shops of this odd Italian colony OF
London, too, are as much in keeping
with the race as are those Of the Chinese
quarter in New York The fancy stores
display various objects of native manu-.
iacture, earrings, beads, images Of devo-
ton, cheap looking trinkets aud silken
kerchiefs Of brilliant hue. The grocer

Railway system I'm England.

The speed of the fastest English trains is
greater than that of the quickest American
trains. Probably the London and North
western runs faster trains than any other
company in the world. In the height Of tine
travel season il runs train between London
and Edinburgh $40 miles, i'll seven and three
quarter hours, nearly fifty miles an hour for
the entire run; part Of the trip is done at the
rate Of a mile minute. The road Is SO well
ballasted and the cars are so constructed that
there is little jostlins, and the noise Of the
train in motion does not seriously interfere
with conversation IN ordinary tones of voice.
English trains make fast time partly because
they never cross on level, nor are the road
ways for vehicles drawn by horses ever built
ON a level with railroads. They either pass
under the road or on bridge or arch over
the rails. There is never any necessity IN
England for the familiar sign in America

IAN Uscd ms Jcwcis.

We have frequently heard Of gems OF
thought falling from the lips, but it has
been left to the Nineteenth century to
implant actual jewels in the teeth, 50
that as the lips move, no matter what
sentiments they utter, the jewels flash
with rare brilliancy. Verify are ones
teeth becoming objects OF value. A
fad still later than jeweling them Is to
preserve the molars as they are drawn,
have them carefully polished and wear
them rs single charms, or, if there be a
sufficient number, have them set medal
lion shape and made into bracelets. The
wearing of q human tooth Is said 10 be
unequaled as a carrier Of happiness and
insurer of personal safety.
This queer fancy may really be claimed
as belonging to our century, as no record
is found of it in the musty pages of long
ago. Not so. however, with the long
walking sticks with the crook handles
that many ladies carry along in their
summer jaunts, whether said jaunts be
up steep, rugged hilisides or over the sea
shores even plane. The Alpine stick
looks picturesque, so thought the woman
of fashion of the time of Charles III,
although the finger of improvement has
undoubtedly been laid on the sticks OF
today. They are made Of polished wood,
are about four feet in length, and have
fancy heads of unique designs, usually OF
wrought gold.-Table Talk. ~ M

percolator, and packed the outlet with
absorbent cotton so tightly that the water
could only flow in drops. By means of
piece of copper wire for a bale, it was
suspended from a hook on the lower side
Of one Of the pantry shelves, over the
shelf OF tbs sink. As often as necessary,
water is poured into the percolator, and
the water pitcher is placed under the out
let. Whenever the cotton shows much

served, owing to the perccator being Of
glass-the maid replaces it with fresh alb
