The fish Commission.

The Fisheries Commission is still at work
in the State Department, but making very
little headway indeed. The Commissioners
are having very pleasant time socially and
there it seems to stop. The Canadians are
not inclined to grant the concessions desired
and if the people close to Mr.. Bayard can
be trusted, he will not yield an inch to Ca

A Bear Garden.

But the House in action has rarely seemed
so much like bear garden as it does these
days. The old members seem always to
think it is all due to the new members. The
new member for the first week, is very quiet
and sedate. He keeps his seat and moves
go Just to the other extreme, moving about,
talking and laughing with all the freedom,
and more than the liberty taken by the old
member. And you cannot have 200 men all
talking and clamoring at once and listen to
to 60 up and down constantly then. Mr..
Carlisle breaks in the head of his sounding
board such great dents that one-half
session is all it can last

Horses, Deli yht in sound.

1t has been often observed by those who
had to do with horses that these animals
have their proper pride in regard to the
looks Of their harness and trappings. The
horse is quick TO show his pleasure or dis
pleasure, and he does this at times with
markell emphasis. His sensitiveness is
not limited to the delight of the eye, but
he is equally moved by the sensation Of
sound. Horses seem in many cases to be
conscious of the tuneful melody or the
jangling discord, as the case may be, made
by the bells which are put upon them
in the winter when they are driven to
sleigh and sled
Mr.. Hissey, an Englishman who has
made a trip through his own country, and
has written a book about it, found bells
in use all the year round on the narrow
country roads of Derbyshire. A driver of
one of those teams told him that once,
being in "a hurry, he neglected to put on
the bells. The consequence was that the
horses were SO indignant they refused to
start. As soon as the bells were fixed on
tho horses started and went contentedly
on their way.
These simple tastes Of the horse appear
much like vanity. The animal seems
wholly insensible to the charms of land
scape, but it's fancy il AIKEN by the glitter
and fash Of bit Of tinsel worn by itself.
1t takes no notice apparently Of the
sweetest notes Of singing birds heard in
the thiekets about its pasture, but is de-
lighted with the ringing of bells, with
which it makes music by its prancing step
and by the tossing Of its eck.-Youth's

Making q Rubber shoe.

Supplementary to the great shoemaking
business here is the rubber industry, for
which Boston is the great center in this
country. Forty million dollars worth of
rubber shoes and boots are sold in the
modern Athens annually. The raw ma
terial comes from Para, Brazil. In huge
Jumps. which the natives make by dipping
sticks in the sap of the caoutchouc trce
and turning them round and round with
frequent plunges into the heated rubber
over a hot fire. These Jumps, upon reach
ing the factory, arc cut IN slices, which
are run through rollers and pressed out
thin and fiat like pancakes. The sheets
thus obtained are next put through other
rollers, heated to a high temperature, and
incidentally amalgamated with compost
tion of lampblack, sulphur and litharge,
which reduces them to soft and putty
like consistency.
Finally, in this soft condition, they are
passed over steel rollers bigger than any
that have gone before, and actually incor-
porated with the tissue of a woolen cloth
which is destined to serve as the lining of
the eventual boot or shoe. II you will
try to pull apart the lining and outer coat
of q rubber sandal, you will obtain no.
tion Of the thoroughness with which this
part Of the manufacture is performed.
The rubber sheets, thus prepared, are
passed through u last set of rollers,
on which are engraved all the mark
ings and corrugations of the solo and
upper that appear in the completed article.
The rubber sheets are now ready for the
cutter, who turns out the various pieces
by hand, with the aid Of knife and pat
terms. The parts are then put together
by other workmen with rubber tape.
t~r fs.T.-
the shoe or boot is lasted in the usual
way, and, after being vanished. is allowed
to remain for eight hours in room heated
to the temperature of 235 degs. The heat
sets the varnish and tempcrs the rubber,
which is then termed ''vulcanized" The
stamping of the firm name OH the sole Is
the concluding operation, and then the
rubber shoe is ready for sale.-Boston

The Baudmaster Of west Point.

The cadet hop is n scene of almost be-
wildering beauty. 1t takes place in the
mess room in Grant hall. about which are
hung the portraits of great commanders,
SO thiclzly that it looks like picture gal

fcctly polished. Upon a little platform
the band is seated. It's leader possesses
proud and naughty physique, and is evi-

when his fiery eye lights on the unhappy
