GAS OR GUNPOWDER.
A ScIentist's Humane Invention for
Wholesale Slaughter.

Should there be any debating societies
yet in existence which perfer the discus
sion of abstract problems to vehement
disputations on the burning questions of
the hour, there might be propounded to
them as an instructive subject for exami-
nation, whether DR.. Junemann, more
or less distinguished professor of chemis-
try in Austria, who has just made
public what he thinks to be wonderful
discovry, should be considered an i'm
placable foe OF his species or a philan-
tbropist of most benifcent order. The
doctor, says the London Telegraph, claims
to have invented fluid of feartully des-
tructive properties. This fluid, when
brought into contact with the air after
the explosion of shell in which
it has been contained, is trans
formed into a gas which being
heavier than the atmospheric air,
falls by its own density to the ground,
killing all men and animals within its
reach, and moreover, destroying iron,
bronze and other metals, as we'll as set
ting all infammable things on fire. The
learned doctor states. in a letter to a
Viennese newspaper that so far back as
1S4S, he offered his invention to the Aus
trian war office, which, however,
both then and on subsequent
occasion, declined to experimentalize
with the Junemann homicidal
vapors. 1t can we'll be imagined that in
the fateful year '4S, Prince Windisch-
gratz. Field Marshal Haynau and Jel-
lachich, bane OF Croatia, had quite
enough to do in the way OF shooting
down and bayoneting insurgent mobs,
without being troubled with DR.. June
mann and his pestiferous odors indeed,
the doctor may think himself lucky if he
escaped being shut up in his own labor
atory by the uncompIomising Haynau,
and stifled with the noisome gases which
he had himself prepared. Boston Her

To Keep Bouquet of flowers
Fresh.

A queer way to keep bouquet Of
flowers fresh, but a very striking and
effective one, is thus described. In a
vessel of water place plate, and on this
stand a bouquet of flowers, weighted at
the bottom SO as to stand upright. This
being done, the bouquet is covered with
bell glass, the rim OF which ought to fit
exactly the fat part of the plate the bell
glass should be entirely filled with water
and without the least air bubble. Then
raise altogether, bell glass, plate and
bouquet, and place on table, leav-
ing on the plate around the base
of the bell glass little water to keep
the air from entering. The flowers in
this situation will be preserved in all
their freshness for several weeks, and
their beauty is increased by a great
number of bubbles OF gas produced by
the respiration OF the leaves, and which
attach themselves to the leaves, looking
like pearls. The edge OF the plate and
the water it contains should be concealed
by light bed OF moss, in which are set
some flowers. A bouquet thus arranged
produces charming effect, especially in
the evening" Good Housekeeping.

The Negro Improviug z in Locks.

The negro is changing in appearance
and losing some of the birth-marks pecu.
liar to the African race. The new gener-
alton is showing the effects of higher cul-
ture. Especially is this noticeable in the
towns where contact with the whites
shows its effect. The flat-nosed, kinky-
headed negro is passing away and be-
coming an unknown race. All the colored
children, no matter how dusky in hue,
show the change. Among the females long
hair of that peculiar woolly appearance 9
hangs in long curls or braids down their
backs. Aquiline noses and smaller
mouths, with thinner lips, are the rule.
For years, and, in fact, ever since their
freedom, the negresses have endeavored
to do away with the short and kinky
hair bestowed upon them by their ances-
tors. Much of their spare change is in
vested in various hair tonics and invieo.
rators, and the long attention and care
bestowed upon it is shown in their de-
scendants. The South Georgia negro is
an evidence Of evolution. the survival of
the fittest.

Nativity of It's Members and Sec
tiOnal Representation.

That a prophet is not without honor
save in his own country, is doubtful
aphorism when applied to quite num-
Der OF United States Senators. The
States which are represented in the
United States by men who we're born
within their respective borders, are as
follows:

Each section of the country is largely
represented in the Senate by members
born in the section. For instance {:
Each Southern State is represented by
members who were born in some one OF
the Southern States. New England is
represented entirely by hard-shelled
Yanks with the exception OF Hawley Of
Connecticut, who was born in North
Carolina. The Western States include
in their representation three members
born in New England and four in New
York; the rest are Western men.
Colorado, Nevada, Oregon and California
are all represented by men born
in the Eastern States, with the excep-
tion of Jones of Nevada, who was
born in England. Pasco Of Delaware is
also an Englishman, and Beck of Ken
lucky is a native OF Scotland. These
three are the only members who are not
native born. The fact that the Pacific
States are represented by men from the
East cuts no figure in the general pro.
position here worked out. These States
are of too recent origin to be represented
by native born men yet. We are now at
the turn of the tide, and may look to see
Californians and native Webieet in the
Senate soon.

Ask him, for instance, if it isn't true
that the tariff as it now stands makes
you pay fine averaging forty-seven
cents on every dollars worth of things
use, if those things happen to be some
of the 1900 things in the Republican
tariff list.
Ask him it it isn't true that for some
of the things that workingmen have to
use you pay an outrageous fine of all the
way from fifty cents to $1.94 for every
dollars worth you have to buy. He
may not know that himself, but you can
tell him to look up the tariff schedule
