WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-During Mr..
Morgan's speech in the senate today, he
yielded to Senator Hoar to offer the follow
ing resolution, which was laid over for the
present:
Resolved, That the president of the
United States be requested, if not in his
Judgment incompatible with the public
interests, 10 communicate TO the senate
copies of all communication to the govern
ment of Great Britain, demonstrating with
that government against the wrongs and
unfair treatment to our citizens by the
action of the Canadian government in re-
fusing to vessels and cargoes which pass
through the Welland and other canals of
Canada, the entire tolls, if they are des-
tined to Canadian ports, while those bound
for American ports are not allowed any
such advantage, and the breach OF engage
ment contained in the treaty of 1871,
whereby Great Britain promised to the
United States equality in the matter of
such canal transportation. Also copies OF
any demand made by his direction upon
Great Britain for redress of such wrongs
and the replies of Great Britain to such
communication and demand.

Mormon Colony In chihuahua.

The Mormons have within the past
three years seen the advantages of cheap
grazing and farming lands In this coun-
try and the opportunity to escape perse-
cution in the United States. The results
are seen in the hourishing colonies Of
Juarez ard Diaz, the former adjoining
us, the latter about seventy-five miles TO
the north.
Each colony comprises from 200 to
300 souls. They are recognized for their
fair dealing, honesty and thriftiness.
The country owes them debt Of graft
tude for introducing high grade live
stock Of all descriptions, farming imple-
ments, seeds, trees, saw and -four mills
and industries hitherto unknown 10 the
Mexican but in its most primitive form.
Though polygamy is against the law in
this country, the Mormons are tolerated
and encouraged, and up to the present
time have been of immense benefit to the
country In educating the natives to a
more advanced class Of work. Some
proselyting has been dbne by their mis-
sionaries in the southern part of the re-
public, mostly in and about the City Of
Mexico.
They attempted to induce a number Of
the converts TO form part Of the Juarez
colony, but after bringing about thirty
families they were obliged to return them
to their homes. The Mexican converts
could not amalganate with the Ameri-
cans. The Mexican, though converted
in belief, could not be converted to the
manners and customs OF the American.
Besides, they are great people for
forming attachments TO the land Of their
birth. They rarely leave the home they
were born in. This Is decidedly 30 among
the lower. half Indian class that com
prised the majority Of the converts. To
this fact the Latter Day Saints, as they
prefer 10 be called, attribute their fall
ure. The colony of Juarez IL laid out In
rectangular form, divided into streets
and lots. In the latter their little
wooden houses are erected. the only
wooden houses in this portion Of the
country, surrounded by gardens and
trees. In Gaze Of plural wives" two
Or more houses are seen in the same lot.

Wine is the fermented Juice Of the
grape. and is distinguished from other
fermepted and alcoholic liquors by con-
tanning bi.tartrate of potash, constitu-
ent Of the grape. Blackberries, currants,
and other berries, by fermentation, will
yield o wine, but the nakae of the berries
from which obtained is always appended
to the vinous product. When the-term
wine alone is used the fermented juice Of
the grape is signifed, and anything else
Is misnomer. The numerous varieties
Of wine are occasioned by difference Of
soil, climate. season, and by the kind,
quality and condition of the grapes as to
npeness, the mode Of fermentation. and
by the manner and temperature ut which
the wine Is preserved. and by Its age.
The strong wines, such as sherry, port
and Madeira, are made from grapes
that are thoroughly ripened, and which.
on account of containing large amount
of sugar, yield, when fermented, greater
amount of alcohol, which will range be-
tween 1S and % per cent. Claret contains
about 10 per cent. and champagne about
10. Sweet wines, like tokay, are made
from grapes 80 ripe that they are almost
shrtveled up to raisins. and therefore con-
tain much sugar and the fermentation Is
arrested before oil the sugar Is converted
into alcohol, which will hardly reach 10
per cent. Champagne Is bottled before
the fermentation has ceased. and hence
some of the carbonic acid resulting from
the fermentation is retained In the wine,
to be given off only when the bottle Is
opened. It is. perhaps, not too much to
say that most wines exported from Euro
pean wine countries are adulterated.--

Half the pleasure Of having the hair
washed and groomed is to have some one
do 1t who knows how. In England. In
the large stores, there is department. Of
hair dressing where an accomplished bar.
ber, with every convenience for shower
ing and drying. will wash the hair Of
ladies for one shilling. In this country @
good shampoo cost from fifty cents to 91
which is large sum for SO simple an
operation.
After combing the snarls from the HAIR,
braid it loosely and bind the end with a
small elastic band. Draw tepid water In
basin and first wash the scalp thor.
oughly with CASTLE soap, then let the
braid fan In the water, soap 1t and wash
as If clothes. Afterward thoroughly rinse
and wiring the braid In towel. Wipe
the head dry, undo the braid and brush
out, beginning at the lower end. when 1t
will not tangle. Let the hair loose in the
sun and air and 1t will dry in less than
half an hour. A woman's hair should be
washed at least monthly If kept fine and
healthy.-New York Evening Sun.

Some Things to RemembeY.

have been told, even In cultivated, In.
tellectual circles, that q young woman
had better be In the kitchen or laundry
than In the laboratory or class room Of
college. Women should be trained"
such persons say, ITO be wives and
mothers" The finger Of scorn has been
lightly pointed at the mentally cultivated
mothers and daughters who are unable to
cook and scrub, who cannot make rnince
pie or o plum pudding. Such persons for
get with surprising facility all the cases
Of women who neglect the kitchen TO In
dulge In the love sick sentimentality TO
to which they have been trained; who
think too much of possible matrimonial
chances to endanger them by scrubbing,
or by giving ground for the suspicion that
they cultivate any other faculty than the
power to apostrophize the moonlight and
to long for o lover. They do not care TO
remember that 1t Is no whit better to
wither under the influence of ignorance
or sentiment, to cultivate q fondness for
"gush, thau to dry up the sensibilities
like book worm, or grow rigid and prig-
gish as pedant.
II is as bad to stunt human nature as
to over stimulate ito stop its progress
In one way as In another. The danger Is
In going to extremes. The mass Of men
choose the golden mean, and we may
trust women to avoid extravaganza In tho
pursuit of learning. We may and ought
to give her every help in the direction Of
life that her brothers possess 1t Is no
longer doubtful, 1t is plain, that what
ever other rights woman should have,
those of the intellectual kingdom ought
to be hers fully and freely. She should
be the Judge herself Of how far she should
go In exploring the mysteries of nature
and of science.-Arthur Gilman In. The
Century.

Better, perhaps, than any of the single
temperaments would be mixture Of the
sanguine and the bilious and, indeed, all
the examples of special life storage which
have met with have been of this heredi-
tary admixture.
The organism which is best constituted
for life storage is, therefore, capable Of
being identified, and stands out, SO to
speak, In Its own colors. The color Of tho
Iris, or curtain Of the eyeball, always an
excellent test. is light hazel; the hair
Is dark brown; the color of the skin Is In
clined to be forid. and the lips and eve
lids are Of good natural red--never pale,
as In the pure nervous temperament, and
never of dark blush tint, as in the lynn
phatic or lymphatic bilious In this
mixed temperament Of the sanguine and
bilious. a preponderance Of the sanguine
Is. believe, always an advantage
The qualities here enumerated, as repre-.
sented In an organism well fitted for the
storage Of life. are absolutely of heredi-
tary character. They spring from COM
binations of parentage, and when the
combinations are unalloyed by the intro
duction Of any disturbing elements of
disease, the conditions for long storage
are fortunately combined.-Dr. Benjamin

Example for Holiday Seekers,

When Maestro Verdi arrived at Monte
catini to take the waters and with them o
well earned holiday, he found that the
chief piece of furniture In the suite Of
rooms prepared for him was piano.
Without saying word, the composer took
the music of his "Trovatore," which had
been put on the music stand as a gentle
ovation, locked the piano, and said to the
son of the hotelkeeper, "Tal1e me to the
place whence can see the deepest abyss. ;"
The young man. somewhat abashed at the
proposal, made In solemn tones, led Verdi
to the top Of the Marienberg, whence the
latter, who was SO tired that he was
hardly able to stand, hurled the key into
the depths, saying, "The Virgin be
praisedl now have accomplished an act
which will greatly help me to enjoy and
benefit by my stay. On the day of my de-
parture from hero will see chat the key
Is replaced" Holiday seekers, go and do
likewise, leaving behind you the keys Of
whatever workshops ye come from

One Of the queer fads of the seashore Is
a sidewalk luncheon. All along the walks
are booths where Vienna sausages are
cooked and handed to you on clam shell

teto on the other. You are supposed to
sit on the sand and eat them without salt
and lick your chops for more. Sillyf
Well. this is the place for silly things.
Another fad is grabbing. A party num-
bering from six to dozen go out In the
marsh channels and bait for crabs with q
piece Of beef tied to q line. The crab is
Just idiot enough to hang on until lifted

And yet another is the moonlight fad
promenading the beach to listen to the
sighing of the clans. Yes CLAIMS sigh.

waist and walking at slow gait, can
catch every sigh that clam sighs.-Cor.

Amazons to the Front.

The insolence and inefficiency of men
servants in England have long been SO
vividly realized by all heads Of house,
holds, that any step which shall be an
advance In the direction of getting rid Of
them ought to be hailed with rapture by
all chatelaines and housekeepers. Many
ladies' have given them up altogether, and
content themselves with female servants,
selecting a peculiarly stalwart specimen
of the genus amazon TO fulfil the duties
Of butler. She Is, moreover, In many
cases. dressed in livery coat and waist
coat, which look very smart, although
perhaps rather suggestive of tho stage.
Quite recently, at Aan afternoon party
given in London, tho guests were entirely
served by bevy Of female servants. all
dressed alike In black gowns. white waist
coats. and white caps trimmed with black
ribbons. The effect was, on the whole,
very pleasing, and the waiting was much
more efficiently and neatly done than If 1t
had been intrusted to oohort of walters.
