CHICAGO ANARCHISTS.

It certainly seems strange to
lookers-on that with the experience
with anarchists they had but little
more than a year ago, the police
officials of Chicago should allow
the anarchistic leaders to keep
themselves and their reasonable
teachings so continually and prom
inently before the public. "The
anarchists and their sympathizers
had meeting in the suburbs of
Lake View a few evenings ago, which
was widely advertised as a free en-
tertainment. After gymnastic ex-
ercises and singing, they presented
a tableau, the prominent feature
of which was a white bust of Spies.
In the rear was a female PERSONAL
ing the Goddess of Liberty. To
her right was another representing
Justice with the sword and scales
in her hand, but her arm was held
by child who sneeringly pointed
at the Goddess of Liberty. Next
was a man in black, representing
the law, with his hands thrown up
and typical anarchist held sword
to his breast. In front was another
anarchist armed with an axe, the
stars and stripes were beneath his
feet and a crimson flag waved over
his head. Several citizens of Lake
View manifested their displeasure
and disapproval by leaving the hall,
but the majority of those present
applauded wildly. The police say
they will not allow a repetition Of
such entertainments" The police
not allowing a repetition" seems
very much like "locking the barn
door after the horse is stolen" It
would seem that they might easily
have ascertained the character of
such widely advertised entertain
ment, and put a stop to it before it
had succeeded in sowing the seeds
of rebellion and anarchy. Prevent
ing repetition will not undo the
mischief.
The anarchists have six Sunday
schools in Chicago, each located in
the rear Of saloons, where children
are taught that Spies and Parsons
were martyrs who were murdered
by capitalists, and Johann Most is
held up to them as a model and
example for them to initiate. One
school held in the back room
of a saloon last Sunday afternoon,
was found to contain 1870 children
ranging from 5 to IA years of age,
seated on long benches listening
with eager attention to what the
teacher was explaining to them
about Herr Most.
A newly organized local anarch-
list society has issued a circular
calling large meeting next Sunday
for the purpose of devising means
by which to found more anarchist
schools throughout the city, and
inviting all their sympathizers to
investigate those already founded.
Does it not seem that stop should
be put to 80 outrageous a proceed

FUTURE OF THE LEAD MARKET

The all-absorbing question with
miners and smelters at the present
time, says the Denver Republican,
10 the future of the lead market.
Six weeks ago all were buoyant
and full of bright expectations for
the future. With New York quo
tations at 400 to 5.124, and the
smelters paying Az to 60 a unit for
the lead in the ores, the most in
different mines were enabled to re-
sumo operations and return some
profits to their owners. The pros
perity, however, proved of short
duration. The prices stimulated
work, and mines previously idle
were started up with full forces,
while the production of regular
shippers was largely increased and,
IN addition to all, the imports from
Mexico multiplied. The railroads
were crowded to move the ore, and
The smelters taxed the storage bins
and bank accounts in taking care
of the large lead ore consignments
made to them.
The greatly increased production
was no secret among consumers,
and they held off in their purchases,
rightly anticipating the inevitable
decline in the price of the metal.
Dealers and middle men stood firm
for time, but the surplus of Il, 900
tons and the increase beyond the
rate of consumption was so appa-
rent and generally known, that the
most strenuous efforts to maintain
the fancy quotation proved unavail-
ing, and finally the bulls on lead
were forced to yield and let the
market take care of itself, which it
did in manner most unsatisfac-
tory to the Western miner and
emelter. for in few days the price
declined about 80 per cent.
But now the question centers not
SO much upon what has been, but
what il to Do, expected in the flu.

General Crook Frightened.

It sounds very strange to hear
that General Crook, the redoubta-
BILE Indian fighter, was scared, and
more strange that he was scared by
children. But such is the story

There is very little contrast between
the Swiss and French soldier. Both are
below the stature of the German, Eng
lish and American soldier; inferior intel
l~ectually and physically. The Swiss war
rior wears a cap helmet, which makes
him look at once like n member of n
rural band in America. 1t is of black
cloth, with deep blue trimmings and
with black silk braid about the edges.
Tho front is cooked and tho rear slopes
and has the helmet brim. He wears n
navy blue cntaway coat, dark gray PAN
falcons, and each is decked with n very
narrow red cord. At his side is n short,
heavy sword always. His side arms are
completed by a five-shot 42-calibro re-
volver, heavy enough to be used MS n
bludgeon in close quarters. Also, like the
French soldier, the Swiss is armed with a
magazine needle gun and is given SO
Il active training that he is invariably
a fair marksman. In this, rs nearly all
continental armies, there is by govern
ment authority an inducement for sol
dicrs TO become fine marksmen. But
the pay of the continental soldier is so
low and generally his service so nearly
mental that he takes little interest in what
he does. The pay is about one-fourth
that If tho American soldier and less than
half of that paid the English Cor. Phila

The Esquimaux pantheon is pretty
well occupied, there being gods to pre-
side over the different natural phenomena,
such as the rain, snow, ice, tides and SO
forth, md others controlling human des-
tiny in the chase, at home and else
where. Their explanation of the tides
is very naive. The genius of the waters,
it seems, wishing to cross the straits dry
shod, caused the water that filed them
to heap itself up at one side, and then,
when nc had passed over, to fall back
into its place again, which it did with
SUCH momentum rs TO go on o~scillating

of priests, and under their direction make

a way las been found Of ageing
whisky 0rtiicially. A dealer showed the
writer W samples of what he called the
''Jtrai ut article; one was made in
1850, tho other in July, 1887. They
were equally good, he said. in color, bou-
quot, taste and every other quality, and
yet tho 1887 sample was sold at $40 less
Il barrel than the other. In other words,
the whisky makers can now furnish n
three months article equal in every re-
fpcct 10 that which is three years old.
BY this process they save the three
years storage. interest and evaporation.
The purchaser generally gets the benefit
Of this. The new process consists briefly
of rocking the barrels day and night on
patented ''cradles." Charred barrels are
used. as is customary-that is to say, the
barrel is burned out before the whisky is
put in, thus converting tho inner surface
into charcoal. The constant motion for
three months dissipates the fusel oil and
imIaTts the rich color which new whisky
has hitherto never had legitimately.-

Something About 'zanto c~urrants."

The word currant is said to be n cor
ruption of Corinth. n city from which
once camc all the Greek currants. The
currants, commonly called zante, are
really ~raisins, produced from n grape that
grows no larger than peas, like the
American wild or fox grapes, and hangs
in punches only three inches long. These
grapes are dried in the sun, and then
stored in bulk, where the sugar that
eXudcs from them makes them into
masses so compact that they have to be
dug apart by force when wanted. They
arc prepared for shipment by being put
into casks and packed into a solid mass
by being trodden by the feet of the ma
tives.-New York Sun.

Chinese Shoes and shoomakinr.

Shoemaking, shoe mending and shoe
selling are distinct branches of business
III China. Chinese shoes exhibit great
variety of shape. Except in the hob

little leather used-the materials being
principally calico, silk, satin, velvet and

Of fine open rush work, with bright lin

by their wearers. From childhood the

This treatment requires much perse-
verance and practice, otherwise it may
TO some extent prove n failure; but re-
newed vigor will always be in proper
ton to the practice. Be not discouraged.
First thing in the morning and last thing
at night rub the abdomen down the left
side and up the right in n round circle,
also rub down the breast; now pace
across the room onc or twice, and then
snap the lower limbs, like n whip lash,
for exercise. Now twist the lower limbs,
first on one side, then on the other, and
rock up on the toes. Now for the lungs
and abdomen; first, take in n half breath,
then exhale AN the air possible, then fill
the lungs TO their full capacity, walk
across the room and back, at the same
time throwing the arms back. Now in a
half breath send out every particle of air
till you see the abdomen working like a
bellows, and you will soon become n deep
breather. For more extended practice
in deep breathing the morning before
rising is n good time, provided there is
full ventilation and that the air inside is
as pure and fresh as that on the outside.
Before n good fire wash the hands and
face, wet the back of the neck, arms and
lower limbs slightly, and rub down with
n coarse towel. This is sufficient for n
beginner, but entirely inadequate for the
oh, chronic dyspeptic.-J. N. Semple in
