politics are truly past finding out, but
one thing is reasonably certain and
that is that consistency is not one of
the virtues at politicians. A few
months since, for instance, certain
politicians were very anxious to defeat
the nomination of Gen. Nichols and
the principal reason assigned was
that he had at some time or other
bolted a Democratic nomination.
To-day these same parties are moving
heaven and earth to defeat the return
of Gen. Gibson to the Senate and,
strange as it may seem, the principal
reason given is that he did not bolt

The Sunday Law.
jackson Patriot.l

Jackson Patriot.l
There seems to be no doubt that
strong effort will be made to induce
the next Legislature to repeal the
present Sunday law. We are proud
to know that Jackson has elected a
representative who will do all in his
power to prevent this contamination.
We think that the establishment of
this law marked a decided advance
in the civilization of Louisiana-now
to go backwards would be humiliat-
ing to all lovers of genuine good
government. La proportion to its
high morality will the light of any
nation shine, and that country which
sets at naught God and his ordinan-
ces, is sure to meet with fall. We
know that infdelity has arguments
against this proposition, but we also
know that the voice of history, both
sacred and profane, sustains the view
that country to be great, peaceful
and happy, must also observe the
teachings of morality.
We have faith enough in the good
sense and purity of purpose of the
Legislature elect to eel assured that
the Sunday law is in no danger, but
will be preserved on our statute books
as an evidence that the people Of
Louisiana clear God" and will KEEP
his commandments. Remember the
Sabbath day to keep it holy" is just
as sacred an injunction as "Thot
shalt not steal"

CANNED SHRIMPS.
They are Packed In New Orleans al
Shipped All Over the Globe.

They are Packed in New Orleans and
Shipped All Over the Globe.
"Where is shrimp packed and how?"
asked young man of a Fulton Market
fish merchant the other day. He re-
piled that they were packed in New
Orleans, whence they are shipped to
all parts of the world. The dealer
added:
The shrimps run in large schools
near the surface of the water down in
the numerous passes that find their
way into the Gulf of Mexico, and are
caught by "dogos" with their seines,
who frequently will in one haul bring
in enough to fill their lugger, flat
bottomed boat with a square sail. On
reaching the factories, many of which
are built on the docks, the shrimps are
placed in long troughs, where girls
with one expert wrench twist off the
heads and with firm pressure at the
tail force out the shrimp. They are
paid by the pound for all that are taken
in this manner, some making as much
as twenty-five cents an hour. After
being taken from the shells the shrimps
are placed in u vat of salted water,
where they are cooked by means of
steam pipes running through the watts.
The shrir Fps then are put into little
gauze bags, each bag just large enough
to fill the inside of can, there being
SO much phosphorus in the shrimps
that unless precautions were taken tho
tin would be eaten through by its action
and the contents spoiled. After the
shrlmps are placed in the cans they are
Theoretically sealed, all this work being
done by machinery, They are then
put into large tank and once more
put through a second steaming process,
ten times hotter than the first, SO that
they become thoroughly cooked before
being put on the market. They are
then ready for labelling and boxing.
Some idea OF the magnitude of this
business can be inferred when 1t ia
known that during the shrimp season.

HINTS ON DISINFECTlON.
Nine Articles for tn. Successful Prevention
of Disease Germs,

First. Corrosive sublimate (mer-
curic chloride), sulphate of copper,
and chloride of lime are among our
best disinfectants, the first two being
poisonous. At wholesale drug houses
single pounds can be obtained, mer-
curic chloride costing seventy-ive
cents, the others ten cents pound.
Second. A quarter Of IL pound OF
corrosive sublimate and II pound of sui
phate of copper in one gallon of water
makes concentrated solution to keep
in stock. We will refer to it as "solu-
ton A."
Third. For the ordinary disinfect-
ing solution add half pint of solution
A" to gallon of water. This, while
costing less than cent and II half per
gallon. is good strength for general
use. Use in about equal quantity in
disinfecting choleric or typhoid fever
eXcreta.
Fourth. A four per cent. solution OF
good chloride of lime or quarter pint
of "solution A" to IL gallon of water is
used to wash woodwork floors, and
wooden furniture, after fumigation and
ventilation.
Fifth. For fumigating with sulphur,
three to four pounds should be used TO
every thousand cubic feet air space.
Burn in an old tin basin iloating in u
tub OF water; keep room closed twelve
hours, to allow the fumes to penetrate
all cracks. Then open window from
the outside and allow fumes to escape
into air.
Sixth. Soak sheets, ETC., In chloride
OF lime solution, wiring out and boil.
Seventh. Cesspools, etc., should be
we'll covered on top with Il mixture OF
chloride OF lime with ten parts of dry
sand.
Eighth. Isolate the patient in an
upper room from which curtains, car
pets, and stuffed furniture have been
removed.
Ninth. The solution of mercurio
chloride must not De placed In metal
vessels, since the mercury would plats
them.--LuciHs Iitkin, IN Century

SLANG LANGUAGE.


:. Gypsy vernacular.
OF late years literature and society
have shown an unmistakable tendency
to disinter from the unliterary depths of
the still current speech of the very low
est classes of the people many hundreds
OF words that are not to be found in the
dictionaries. These words, or most OF
them, were formerly known as "cant,"
''flash, "pedlars,' "Greek, ''jargon,"
''gibberish, but are now included un-
der the generic name of "slang." But
the slang OF our times is by no means
confined to these anachrOnisms and in.
clude many legitimate meanings and
used by sense sometimes ludicrous
and always offensive to refined ear
and correct taste; such as the
substitution of "dreadfully," saw
fully" and other expletives OF
similarly ''forcible feebleness," for the
good old word "very;" as in such COM
mon phrases as an lawfully pretty
GIRL" an lawfully funny joke" a
''dreadfully fine woman," scream
ing farce" u ''marrow-freezing trage-
dy"-all of which expressions are
slang of the worst kind. "Slang" that
was formerly confined to tramps, beg.
gars, gypsies and thieves, and in a
modified degree and of II somewhat diff.
fererent origin and species, to trade and
professional people, when coniidentially
speaking to one another of the prac.

ODD hEAD.DRESSES,
Singular Coifures Worn by Natives of AsIa
and Africa.

singular COluureS worn by NATIVES OF Asia
and Africa.
The Ethiopians have no hair, proper
ly speaking, but what answers them for
hair is really different from the hair of
the white races. If hair from the
head of Caucasian be examined
through a microscope, it is found to be
hollow, composed of sections or joints
somewhat resembling those of cane,
or in some cases like ladder with it's
rounds. The hair of an African is en-
tirely different in this respect, being
solid and round, this constituting the
difference between wool and hair; but
nevertheless the fact that his wool is
solid appears only to endear it to the
African, who gives it all the more at
tention, perhaps because he has so little
Of it, and divides his scalp into patches,
gathering up the hair from each into a
circular knot and tying it with a string
as carefully as though itwere u treasure.
In the interior of the dark continent
the wool of the negroes is frequently
long, though never straight, but so

their locks that not much attempt ut
ornateness is made in the African head
dresses. Livingston says that when an
African chief makes his toilet, the most
he ever attempts in the way of arrang-
ing head-dress is to comb his wool up
into pyramidal shape, stick few
feathers in it, and hang one or more
strings of beans along the facade, so to
speak, of this unique edifice.
The Asiatics have always been famous
for decorating their heads. The Mo-
hammedans of old shaved their heads,
except single knot of hair at the ex-
act top of the head, which was left for
a practical purpose; the Mohammedan
doctrine being that, at the resurrection
of the dead, the angel Gabriel was
specially detailed to attend to the Mo-
hammedans, and he raised them by the
topknot; accordingly the topknot was
left full and strong, in order that the
hold might not break, u hole being left
in the top of the coffin in order to facili-
tate theangel's work. Louis Globe
