from the Senate all pending treaties effected by

so EASY AND EFFECTIVE.

Something That Every Lady Ought
to Know for Her Own Good.
Washing dishes is a very necessary
and at the same time the most unpleas-
ant part OF household duties for indie
pendent OF the unpleasantness OF hand
ling the soiled articles, the manipula-
tion OF them In hot water Is Injurious to
the hands. This Ia bad where q lady has
to do her own domestic work, but even
II she can afford to employ q servant,
this duty Ia often so inefiiciently done
as to render the dishes unpleasant and
unhealthy for use. Mr.. McCauslsnd has
Invented a machine that revolutionizes
this part Of domestic service, and has
made 1t go agreeable and easy, that even
child can do the work effectively and
well. This machine, called "the Nc
Causiand dishwasher" Is new and sim
pie, consisting mainly OF two tin pans,
one fitting inside the other, water-force
wheel and a crank. All you have to do
10 to remove the upper pan, which is
suitably perforated; then you collect
your dishes, and this done, you put boil
Ing water In the lower pan, then you
put into and clamp II to the upper pan.
Having placed the cover over the pans.
you simply turn q crank one way and Ii
forces q splendid stream of water
through the perforated sides OF the up
per pan on to the dishes, and by revsrs.
ing the crank 1t completes the work.
Removing the cover, you find your
dishes are thoroughly cleansed, all
stains and odor removed. Unclamp the
upper pan, take II out, stand 1t aside for
a few minutes, and without the trouble
OF drying the dishes, you will find that
they are then dry, and what is more,
shining like new dishes. All this 10
done practically without handling II;
reduces the chance Of breakage TO q
minimum and prevents the undue
soiling Of clothes. The work is
thoroughly done In less than a quarter
Of the time, and when 1t is done, IL lie
more oleanly, healthy and pleasant.
The mechanism is simple the material
good, and therefore 1t does not get out
Of order, and with ordinary care will
last for many years. This machine can
also be we'll used for the thorough

other articles.
Messrs. Sojourner & Watson, general
agents, are In this city and have an
office at 2I2 East Commerce street op-
posite the Arbeiter Verein hall. where
they will take pleasure In showing the
machine to all callers and demonstrating
Its utility, nay more Its necessity 10
every household.
Many OF these machines have been
sold and all speak In high praise
Of them and the sale increases
daily. Some idea OF the utility and
value OF this patent, now only three
months old may be found In the fact that
over 1000 has been realized from the
sales Of states and territory rights and
Of machines. For half interest in the
sale OF machines on the Pacific slope
and In states and territories west OF the
Rockies, Sl5O,OO0 was received and $751;
600 was paid for similar rights In Mexi-
co, New Mexico, Arkansas and Texas.
These facts alone speak volumes for the

COMMISSION ON A CORPSE.
A San Antonio Barber's Remarkable
Story OF a Local Undertaken.

n San antonio Barber > HenafkaDle
Story of Local Undertaken.
I'm a period OF twenty five years,
since left my mothers breast" said u
San Antonio barber, to LIGHT young
man, IL have travelled from tho rock
bound coast OF Maine to the
Rio Grsnde; from the Icy peaks
of the far north to the everglades Of
Florida; 1 have met the percentage
Jew Of Baxter street, New York; the
scheming hsckmen Of Niagara Falls,
and the accommodating guides OF Castle
garden, and to each, In turn, have l
contributed a slight commission for as
sistsnce or favors, but let me tell you
that was never done up by an under
taker until came to San Antonio"
"How's thar" interrogated the re-
porter.
"would you believe that there ia a
manor, male addition this planet We
inhabit, who requires commission
from the barber who shaves the sunken
faces Of dead subjects In his charge?
Well, there ls, and he lives and does
business right here 10 San Antenio."
This revelation. surprising from
moral view and business standpoint,
called for an explanations; and the bar
Der, who is still at work in the city and
W NouSh ioA tbC
OF his statements, continued:
"Some days ago q gentleman died OF
consumption at one Of our hotels during
the night. The next morning friend Of
the deceased OF me and asked me to 60
over and shave him. Ii WAS not q de-
sirsble Job, but obedient to my calling 1
went. The dead mans face was shaved,
his hair dressed and every touch known
to the tonsOrial art was applied that
might lend animation to his oolOrless
cheeks. The job finished. . friend came
forward and gave me the usual So fee.
With thanks, retired. Now, hold your
breath. Ii was not an hour until GER
tain San Antonio undertaken put In an
appearance at my shop and inquired
which barber shaved the deceased In
question. Being Informed, he demanded
ST. Of the amount charged as commits
directing this class Of trade to our shop.
He said 1t was customary, and the bill
was paid. This Is the first time l ever
heard Of such thing In my whole life.
and l have shaved as many men as, II
put In one grand army, could whip the
strongest nation on earth. Though not
a kicker by Inheritance or training,
must say that this Incident reminds me
how true is the assertion that 1--WE live
Ia a brazen age"
And so we do. 1t ls, however, a black
commentary upon the otherwise fair
name OF San Antonio that this city
should contain one business man who,
In the mad rush for gain, would accept,
or rather require, one paltry dollar as a
commission for cleaning the face OF his
deceased fellow-man. There is not one
member Of that class OF people from
tab h. IL
name. who would, In this land Of books,
bibles, christianity and charity, swell
his purse at the expense Of his standing
as good citizen and an honest man.
Besides, one freak Of this character does
more against San Antonio than the
committee Of 30" will find easy to re-
pair.

as almost pure revenue and will oppose
