Buffalo on the Texas Plains.

Two hundred head or more of buffalo may
be found in the Panhandle of Texas, on the
Llano Estacado, and in No Mans Land. Some
are on the Palo Duro Canon ranch, owned by
Capt. Charles Goodnight; others in the Texas
Capital syndicate, or KIT pasture, especially
on the North plains, l. e., north of the Cana
dian river; still others are at large Probably
twenty or more buffalo calves were captured
this spring in that region and driven to Kan
sas for mercenary and breeding purposes.
There are also many buffalo on the south
plain. The antelope, black tailed deer, and
many rare but smaller mammals, are found
in the same region. Naturalists desiring
these forms should go to Tascosa, Tex, near
the New Mexican line, a place easily Access
sible from Kansas, Denver and Texas, via
the Fort Worth and Denver railway. The
capture of wild horses is profitable pursuit
in this region, adds the Texas correspondent
who gives the above information in a recent

Long Distance Telephoning.

Words spoken in Philadelphia can now be
heard in Portland, Me-, distance of $50
miles. What was at first looked upon as a
doubtful venture is now rapidly becoming
recognized as one of the successful and pro-
gressive moves in recent electrical history.
The large and important cities of Philadel-
phia, New York, Brooklyn, Albany, New
Haven, Hartford, Providence, Boston and
Portland, with intermediate towns, are now
in telephone communication, covering a
territory represented by seven states.
There are at the present time over 100
manufacturing establishments in the terri
tory adjacent to New York that are daily
patrons of this system, either by leasing lines
or by contracting for SO many hours per day,
and these companies are all supplied with the
improved long distance transmitter-the in
vention which, with the use of hard drawn
copper conductors, made possible this won

Aids to Beauty.

Individual beauties have their own theo-
ries as to the preservation of the complexion.
A stage beauty of a few years ago used to
claim that for ten years she had never
touched water to her face or neck, but re-
moved dust and all impurities by careful
rubbing with piece of white velvet
Many professional beauties are careful to
wash their faces only with pure water, with
out trace of soap, as the alkali in the soap,
unless it is of the very best quality, has a
tendency to roughen the skin. Mrs Langtry
is said to use wash of oatmeal dissolved in
warm water every night before retiring.
Frequent exercise, wholesome food and
scrupulous cleanliness are after ALL the best
aids to beauty. Daily sun baths are highly
recommended by women whose girl like CON-
plexions testify to the good results of the
treatment. In all cases it is safe to ASSERT
that the simplest and most natural methods
are the most effective in preserving or i'm
proving the complexion. Drugs and chem
icals lend only seeming aid for time and
then leave the unfortunate user worse of
than she was before.

You don't very often hear of the men
who work In the caissons under deep
streams preparing the foundations for
heavy bridges; the great St. Louis struc-
ture for instance. This work Is regarded
as extremely hazardous by those unfam-
iliar with 1t, but the men who have been
engaged in 1t for years do not look upon
it in that light. AS matter OF course, a
person must become accustomed to the
work before he can remain in a eaisson
for any length of time. Fresh air is, of
course, constantly forced in the caissons,
while the foul air is sent out through the
blow pipe that carries out the sand de-
posted under the water. Still the old
est caisson men or '.mud hogs" as they
are often termed, cannot remain at work
more than two or three hours.
We arrange the shifts when working
these men so as not to keep them down
more than an hour or two at the most.
Even then they get what they call the
"hens" at times. The "hens" is form

Spontaneous Combustion.

In regard to spontaneous combustion the
fires of the year in Boston have furnished
some new observations of considerable i'm
portance. In one case, says American Archi-
tect, quantity of feather dust in a bedding
mandatory took fire without apparent rea-
son. 1t was found, however, that a piece
Of thick glass had been lying on the feathers,
and the suns rays, concentrated in some way
by the glass, had set fire to them, although
the day was a cold one in the month of
March. In another case, a number Of tar
paulin hats were lying, packed together, in a
window. The high temperature, with per-
haps the close packing of the hats, caused
them to burst into blaze. Two other fires
were caused by putting paraffine paper, such
as candy is wrapped in, into a refuse barrel
which contained a little sawdust; and a third,
which destroyed $4,000 worth of property,
was occasioned by putting greasy paper,
which had been used to wrap lunches in, into
wooden refuse barrel, which contained some
sawdust and sweepings.

New Things for Undertaking.

The newest under petticoats are made of
shot silk with pinked out founces and black
satin, quilted in colors Flannel petticoats
have thick satin stitch embroidery, to the
depth of quarter of yard, and when made
of colored flannel white flannel aounces are
intermixed with the colored Chemises are
made with very full and wide double frills of
lace turning downwards from the neck, full
in front with ribbon run through the inser.
ton; batiste and real Valenciennes are the
materials most used in Paris. The Empire
style has even crept into underlinen, and
shows itself in the short waist and the minute
patterns of some of the embroidery. Many
chemises are gathered at the waist; some
times they resemble full baby bodice.
Nightdresses are also folded across and
trimmed with wide frills Of lace laid over
ribbon, wide turn down collars from the
neck Some of the lace is drawn in on rib
bon to the necessary shapes. Jabots of lace
arc introduced on the fronts. Combination
garments are worn and colored cotton under
clothing, and much silk.

Fashionable Toilet Table Appointments
Foreign Fancies In Decoration.
Silver appointments for toilet tables are
most fashionable, from the candlesticks tt
the cold cream box. To match all these the
mirror frame Is often silvered One OF the
prettiest and most uncommon frames recently
seen, was framed with an arrangement OF
entwined twigs and clustering fir cones OF
small size, most gracefully and artistically
manipulated The broad wooden frame was
painted over with silver solution; the twigs
and cones were fixed with pins knocked in
with hammer and then silvered.
The effect was very good pretty
and popular English way of draping toilet
table is to have rather full fall of printed
linen or any material of artistic pattern,
with scarf of soft silk draped over it in an
irregular way, higher on one side than the
other, with an end dropped low and spread
out at the side. The cloth on the top of the
able is of the fancy patterned material, with
The edge gathered up every now and then in
title plaits, to form festooned valance. II
two harmonious colors are thus arranged,

ally corresponds by being of the fancy linen,

A Royal Traveller.

Mr.. Edmund Yates writes to The New
York Tribune that there is not man in the
queens dominions, who, during the last
twenty years, has spent SO many nights in
railway travel as has her majesty's eldest
son. During his Indian tour all the princes
railway journeys were made by night. Look
at his recent record On one night he trav-
eled by rail from Roumania to Vienna The
following night he spends in the train on his
way to the shooting ground. He shoots all
day, comes back the same night to Vienna
without break, quits Vienna by night on a
journey to Paris, and travels by night from
Paris to London The night between Friday
and Saturday of that week he spent travel
ing from London to Balmoral; the night be-
tween Monday and Tuesday of the next
week he spent on the return journey to town.
And his royal highness is never filter than

to rise from his railway couch adequately re-
freshed, certainly in excellent form for either
pleasure or business

An Accident of Childhood.

Putting buttons, beads, etc., into the nose
is by no means uncommon occurrence
among young children, and mothers will
therefore be interested in the following re-
marks from Journal of Health:
A very young child, after such an acct
dent, can rarely be persuaded to forcibly
blow its nose; if it could the foreign body
would in nearly all cases be expelled When
it is too young to do that, his nose should be
blown for him in the following manner:
Have an assistant hold the head steadily be-
tween his or knees, then let the mother apply
her lips closely over the mouth of the child
and blow suddenly and forcibly into it. 1t
is surprising with what ease the trouble can
be removed by this means The child will
very likely cry when the operation is at
tempted; if it does SO much the better. If
the simple procedure advised fails, the SER
vices of physician will generally be needed
to accomplish the removal of the foreign
body.

The Cars Simple Life.

At Fredericksburg the car leads a
simple life, and all the time not occupied
with his correspondence is given to ex-
cursions, hunting and fishing He is one
of the first up in the morning, and when
breakfast is served at O'Clock he has
already taken long walk in the forest.
In the afternoon when he does not go to
the capital he usually passes the time
with the ladies and the children. While
the emperor is at dinner with his family
an orchestra of sixty pieces plays con-
tinually. Alexander is fond of dance
music rather than classical pieces, and in
his spare moments at CATCHING gives
musical lessons to his little daughter
Xenia. The empress OF Russia has not
the striking beauty Of her sister, the
Princess of Wales, but she is full of grace
and affability. She never seeks to exer-
else any political influence over her hus-
band and confines her role to being his
faithful companion. She rises early,
walks good deal, reads enormously and
takes great interest in charitable affairs.

Fresh Air for Students.

Students, of all people, should understand
tsntiiasion. The WEAKNESS and headaches
which come of close application will be
greatly lessened by giving the lungs all the
fresh air they can possibly contain. Chill
dren can play longer without fatigue in fresh
air than when confined indoors. All work
ers know that fatigue and exhaustion come
sooner if there is lack of fresh air. Es-
pecially in training the voice must the stu
dent breathe pure air for the development of
proper tone. And we would wish that there
might be more attention given to this almost
neglected subject on this side of the Atlantic
If people knew how easily one may acquire
full, rlch and well modulated voice our ears
would not be SO often rasped by nasal twangs
and sharps and flats of varying degrees.

SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.
The JudiciOus Selection of Friends and
Social Acquaintance.

The Judicious Selection of Friends and
Social Acquaintance.
Every woman ought to regard her home,
whether grand or humble, as her kingdom,
and steadily refuse to admit within it's sacred
portals any but those whom she can at least
know enough about to feel sure that they are
worthy the confidence of her acquaintance
and the mild form of friendship which the
relation of hostess and guest would seem to
imply.
Such is the counsel of Annie Jenness Miller
on choosing ones friends, and she adds, among
other suggestions, the following: II must
confess to a feeling of absolute revolt everv
time that hear man or woman claim as
friend another about whom they know abso-
lutely nothing; and the deplorable custom of
adding each newly introduced person to ones
list OF invited, when sending out cards for
reception, cannot be too severely censured,
Such course must result in the gathering
together under ones roof of most hetero-
geneous mas of humanity.
1t is far better for the hostess to invite to
her drawing rooms fifty persons whom she
knows to belong to her own grade of society.
whose mental, social and moral qualities she
can vouch for, than hundreds of injudicious.
ly selected persons about whom she knows
nothing, except that Mrs Dash entertains
them. | know of very charming woman,
whose good nature in responding to all kinds
of impertinent demands made upon her for
admittance to her drawing room, have made
it impossible for really self respecting per-
son to visit there at all; and yet, in her own
character as a woman of refinement and in.
telligence, she is simply charming.
Any kindly woman will gladly give gen.
erous lift to struggling generous lift to q
struggling genius, and yet, great discrimina-
ton must be used on deciding who is, and
who is not, worthy of ones confidence and
patronage.
No.honest hearted American can desire any
higher title than that of gentleman or lady;
and one can only become such by carefully
choosing ones friends, in order that all asso-
Citations may tend toward the development of
character which will endure.
