ANOTHER $500 contribution to the Peo-
pies fund for the relief of the Pennsyl-
vania sufferers is now completed at this
office. 1t will be repeated, let US hope, early
this morning, that the whole may be tele-
graphed to Governor Beaver in the after
noon. While the citizens of Sacramento
have done well, there is need and room for
further well-doing. The Relief Fund List
will continue open in our counting room as
long as the people manifest disposition
to have ever SO small a sum forwarded. 1t
is gratifying to note that several hand
some contributions have been sent in from
the interior, with the request to add them
to the Sacramento fund. The RECORD
UNION will promptly dispatch all sums
committed to its care, and duly acknowl-
edge their receipt in its local columns. 1t
is estimated that fully S10,000,000 will be
needed for the sufferers, and it is therefore
evident that our aid is still necessary.

In reporting the disbursements, every
item is given, the price paid per pound,
ounce and yard, of whom the supplies were
purchased, etc. The name of every person
assisted is given, the amount expended for
the sufferer, its duration, ETC., together
with the place of his residence, and every
detail essential to conveying full knowl
edge of the relief given and the beneficial
results flowing from the charity. From
this volume, which is monument of in
dustry and faithful devotion to the cause
of humanity, we learn that the cash dona-
tions, membership fees, supplies, and dues
from the United States Marine Hospital
service amounted to $570,629 80. The
disbursements for sanitation, sanitary
police, property destroyed, hospitals, suf-
ferers in towns and counties, amounted to
S4S6,077 06, leaving on hand S24,752 81,
and due to the committee from the United
States Hospital service $40, AGO II in addi-
ton.
All this is gratifying, and ought to
afford the donors of the magnificent charity
great satisfaction. 1t ought to do a great
deal more-give the people confidence in
their fellows and perfect repose in the
faith that the far greater money charity
now being extended to the people of Penn
sylvania and Maryland will be applied
wisely and accounted for to the last cent

a funny story comes from the village
of Crumpton, where the gossips are dis
cussing the marriage of Miss Matte
Glanding, the principal of the. school,
and DIR. CT. Cahoon, the village physi-
clan and druggist. When the ministerial
blessing had been given and the bene-
diction pronounced, the happy pair step
ped into the finest rig the town could
afford and drove to Ralph's wharf,
twelve miles away, to take the steamer
Emma a. Ford for n wedding triple this
city and Washington. When the steamer
was reached, however, the bridegroom
concluded that he could not desert his
practice and his drug store, even for the
pleasure of n bridal tour, so placing his
bride on the steamer, with many en-
phatic injunctions to the officers to look
after her comfort, he slowly and sorrow
fully wcnded his way home, while the
lonely bride came on to Baltimore. Mrs.
Cahoon visited friends here and in
Washington, and enjoyed her lonely
wedding tour as best she could. After
three days absence she returned, and
yesterday morning was met by her hus-
band at the wharf. The little house was
ready for her, and the happy pair have

For a seaside sport tho visitors to n
Cuban watering place have devised the
safe pursuit of Holsters. The author Of
The Pearl Of the Antilles describes the
chase:
Fol this sport a big barge is secured,
and after having been furnished with
carpets and rugs for the ladies' accom-
mediation we proceed to navigate the
shores and creeks of the harbor. Three
or four black fishermen accompany us
N bear long torches of wood, by tho
light of which the ground beneath the
shallow water is visible.
Our prey is secured by throwing a net,
in the meshes of which the lobster be-
comes entangled; but should this prove
Intellectual n long pole forked ut one end
is thrust over the creatures back, and rs
he struggles to free himself from the
Tronged embrace a nimble negro dives
Lito tho water and captures him alive.
Great excitement prevails when a lob
ster comes IN board and bounds among
our crew and passcngcrs.-Eouths Com

Let Your Work Talk.

Mr.. Box says. in his Literary Leaves,
published in The New York Graphic,
that an editor of one of the great maya
zines said to him, in reply to his question,
care personal introductions helpful to
young authors?"
Don't 30 to q friend who knows tho
editor and get a letter of introduction; it
will bore the friend. the editor and
eventually yourself. If you suggest the
value of n friend at court remember
that the editor has met this scheme n
thousand times. 1t means that you ask
HIM to make IN exception of your case
against his Judgment, and this annoys
him to begin with. If you want to sell
q firm q bill of goods you do not feel
that you need q letter of introduction to
the buyer. end an editor is in exactly this
position of one who is always buying
what he thinks is salable."
There is n good deal of truth in this
advice of the magazine editor. The
authors best friend or his worst enemy
is his manuscript. That should be his
letter of introduction without n pro
liminary fourishes in the shape of actual
letters of introduction.-The Epoch.

The present efficiency of the best nom
condensing engines is probably not
greater than at the rate of two and a
half pounds of coal an hour a horse
power, and of n good c~ondensing engine
about two pounds of coal an hour a
horse power, or not materially different
from James Watts engines of fifty years
ago.
1t is my opinion that with our present
knowledge of machinery a steam engine
al be built that will produce n horse
power with three-quarters of a pound of
coal an hour, if of sufficient size to re-
duce the percentage of loss by radiation
to q minimum. Under those circum-
stances your fuel expenses would be less
than one-third Of what it now is.
The future before men of your pro-
fession is brilliant indeed. The uses of
electricity are now only beginning. and
in n short time it will be the docile COM
panion of mans labors, where now it is
dreaded as the t~reacherous slave. Study
the laws of nature, which are the
thoughts of God, and do not attempt to
rebel against them. We cannot create
new laws nor produce force.-E. N.

Many devices are suggested by plumb
ers for guarding against the danger of
house traps being emptied by evapora-
ton or espionage while the houses are
closed for the summer, and thus allow
ing the escape of ~noxious gases into the
dwelling. Some 60 as far as to say that
there is no safety short of disconnecting
the fixtures and securely closing the
ends of the pipes. Others recommend
shutting the water of and filling the
closets and traps with oil or glycerinc,
while still others favor an adjustment of
h valves so that there will be a con-
tinual dripping of water. Ono of the
most sensible suggestions we have seen
is made by The American Artisan, which
is that where q house is to remain closed
for some time the best plan is TO arrange
for some one to go into the house once a
week or so, let the water circulate
throughout the house, and take n look
around to see that all is right.-Boston

Among the peculiar industries which
flourish in western Maine is the making
Of thread spools. They are cut from
smooth, white birch timbcr-a wood
which works easily-by various kinds
of improved machines. There are nu
merous mills throughout the numbering
region, where the birch IL sawed into
strips about four feet long and from one
10 two inches in width and thickness.
These strips then go to the spool facto-
ries, to be converted into spools. The
processes they are put through are M
merous, and one Of them, the method Of
polishing them, is quite interesting. a
barrel is filled nearly full of them aud
then rcvolvcd by means of machinery
and betting until the spools arc worn
smooth by rubbing II against another.
Spool manufacturing is the most inn
portant industry in several of the vii
ages of Oxford county, and will doubt
less continue so until the supply Of
white birch timber Is exhausted. The
manufacture of shoe pegs il another
peculiar Maine industry, though shared
in 10 some extent by other New England
states. These are cut from maple and
white birch 10y machinery, and are worth
Mt the factory from t~hirty-fivc to ninety
five cents Il bushel. The COMPRISING Of
sawdust Is also n furnishing business in
Bangor in hat state. There ia n firm
