Among the fads of foolish legislation
was a state board Of arbitration between
employers and workingmen. The trial
Of the impracticable law at Fall River
showed its foolishness. The board had
no authority to compel compliance and
proved to be more ornamental than use
full. The manufacturers paid no atten-
fion to the board whatever.

CONCERNING the appointment Of insur-
ance commissioner the Laurel Gazette
says
But the shameful deed is done and we
may we'll say the feeling Of disgust and
disappointment is intense. Few men
ever enjoyed frmer friendship OF more
unalloyed popularity than Benjamin 7.
Biggs once enjoyed in Little and Broad
Creek hundreds; and few men ever had
their popularity to fall at one bound,
from blood heat to zero, as has occurred
in this instance.
An unalloyed popularity which freezes
and can "fall at one bounds, is too MUIR
curial entirely. II is also unscientifc.

They were not. Halstead was alone. If

should not have allowed his name to go
before such polluted body for
acceptance or rejection. Halstead has
been at this work for twenty

carry noxious gases and odors off
without endangering the public
health. That of Townsend's s
works in Glasgow, Scotland, is
454 feet high and 80 feet at the
base; that is, the height of the blick
work; but owing to the fact that it
was struck by lightning, and some
what damaged, as precautionary
meaure, copper extension subse
quently was added to it, making
its entire height 4SS feet. In or
der to get man up to do this
work, kite was flown over the
chimney and a line dropped across.
Then rope was hauled by this
means over, and thus the workman
was pulled up, to whom the copper
sheets were hoisted one at a time,
and who did the perilous job at the
top alone.
When this chimney was building
and nearly finished a heavy gale
canted it nine feet out of plumb,
but this was remedied by saving
into the mortar on the side from
which the stack leaned, until the
immense shaft gradually settled
back to its former position. 1t was
three years building and cost
$4,000. 49,
The next highest is at Tenant
& Cos, also in Glasgow. This is
435 ieet, 40 feet base. 13 feet tlue,
and was one year building.
The only other taller than the
Fall River chimney is at Dobson
& Barlow's Bolton, England. 1t is
367 feet 6 inches high, 33 feet 10
inches at base, 13 feet 2 inches

HE BET ON A SPLINTER.

A young San Francisco sport
rushed into the police station last
evening at about $50 o'clock and
asked for an officer to 90 out to
restaurant and arrest Harry
Bethune, the sprinter, a man
named Gibson and several others.
When the young sport recovered
his breath he informed assistant
district Church, who was present,
that he had been induced to put
up $500 on Gibson in sprint
which had taken place earlier in
the evening at the racetrack be-
tween Gibson and Bethune. The
latter won the race-125 yards
handily, and the sport lost his
money. lie declared he had been
swindled, and wanted Gibson and
Bethune arrested. Assistant dis
trict Bhureh informed the young
man that he had recourse to the
civil courts only. The young man
went away muttering revenge
upon the sprinters.-S. f. Chroni

THE MORTGAGE.

We worried through spring and winter,
through summer and through fall,
But the mortgage worked the hardest and
the steadiest of them all;
1t worked on nights and Sundays, it worked
each holiday;
1t settled down among US and never went
away.
Whatever we kept from it seemed almost as
bad as theft;
1t watched us every minute and it ruled us
: right and left. .-.-.
The rust and blight were with us sometimes
and sometimes not;
The dark -browed, scowling mortgage was
forever on the spot.
The weevil and the cutworm they went as
well as came;
The mortgage stayed forever, eating heartily
all the same;
1t nailed up every window, stood guard at
every door,
And happiness and sunshine made their
place with us no more.
Till with failing crops and sickness we got
stalled upon the grade,
And there came q dark day 'mong us when
the interest wasn't paid.
And there came a sharp foreclosure and I
kind of lost my hold
And grew weary and discouraged, and the
tarm was cheapiy sold.
And the children left and catered when
they hardly yet were grown;
My wife she pined and perished and found
myself alone
What she died of was 'tmystery," and the
doctors never knew,
But know she died of mortgage-just as
wells wanted to.
If to trace hidden sorrow were within
the doctors art
They'd "a fou. ID mortgage lying CT that
poor woman's heart.
Worm or beetle, drought or tempest, on a
farmers land may fall,
But for firstclass runation trust mortgage
'gainst them all.

at recent meeting in Brook
lyn, DIR. Benjamin Lee, of the
Pennsylvania board of health,
urged the purchase of Cuba by the
United States, for the protection
of our sanitary interests. He said
that it was evident that Spain
would never undertake the task of
clearing the island of epidamic
diseases, and that a single wide
spread epidemic of yellow fever
would cost the United States more
than the island, to say nothing of
the suffering and sorrow. His
argument, which is strong one,
is attracting great deal of at

$50 FEET HIGH.

The tallest smokestack in the
United States, and in fact the tall
est in the world designed solely
for the purpose of providing a
draught for boilers, is receiving its
final courses to-day in this city,
says Fall River correspondent of
the Boston Globe of date October
25th. 1t is intended to meet the
requirements of the entire steam
plant OF the four new mills of the
Fall River Iron Company.
Some idea of its size can be had
from the following figures, furnish
ed by the contractor, VIM. M. Man
ley of this city: From the top of
the granite foundation to the cap
is $50 feet, the diameter at. the
base is 80 feet, at the top 81 feet,
the flue is 81 feet throughout, and
the entire structure rests. on a solid
granite foundation 55x30, 16 feet
deep. In its construction there
was used 100000 bricks, 1000
tons of stone, 1000 barrels of NOR
tar, 1000 loads Of sand, 1000 bar
rels of Portland cement, and the
estimated cost is $4,000. 1t is
arranged for two fues 9 feet 6
inches by 6 feet. connecting with
forty boilers. which are to be run
in connection with four triple-ex
pansion engines of 1850 horse
power each.
In erecting this immense shaft
no outside staging has been used,
but as the work progressed cross
pieces were set into the inner wall
and OH these a platform laid for
the time being. All material was
carried up on an elevator, and self
closing matches precluded the
danger of either workmen or ma
terlal falling from above, while by
speaking tubes and a system Of
electric signals communication
was established between the
workmen and those below.

ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES.

1t has SO long been accepted as
a fact that the use of alcoholic
beverages shortens life, that evil
dence to the contrary causes a
shock such as might be expected
from proof against the rotundity
of the earth. The textbooks on
alcohol which have been in many
states forced into the public
schools, are gotten up OH the theory
that the use, in any form, of that
poison shortens life. The British
Medical association, a scientific
body of the first rank, with a de-
sire to prove the evil effects of
spirit drinking, began a compre-
hensive investigation, collecting
vital statistics and building up
life tables with the greatest care.
After accumulating many thous-
ands of cases. in which the habits
of deceased persons in respect to
the use OF liquor had been care
fully assertained, the whole mass
OF evidence was examined, with
the most astonishing result. The
classification was into teetotallers.
moderate drinkers, and drinkers
who drink between drinks, making
excessive use of spirits. 1t was
found that the average life of the
teetotallers was 81 years % days;
of the temperate drinkers 63 years
13 days; careless drinkers, SO years
81 days, and the free and hadituaI
drinkers, 81 years SO days. Either
the investigation is absurdly in
accurate or it happened to cover a
class of people of such hardy.
habits and constitution as to re-
sist the effects of stimulation. 1t
is easy to believe that the mod
crate drinker may have long life,
since medical science has been
unable to find any weakening
trace left by liquor in the system,
provided the effect Of one in
diligence bas time to completely
disappear before another follows it.
But it takes a man with organs
like steam engine to stand the
stimulation of strong
liquor. Men like to live long, but
we don't think they will prefer to
purchase longevity by keeping
their clay soaked. A short and
sober life has more in it than a
long and drunken one. There is
no doubt that the effect OF alcohol
upon the duration of life depends
much upon the age at which in
diligence begins. The Romans
seldom drank wine until they had
passed thirty years. The Morse
men abstained until after they had
been in battle, another method
of fixing an age at which spirits
might be drank. Not many men
in this country are hurt by either
liquor or tobacco, if they refrain
from both until they have reached
maturity, at twenty-five or thirty
years. The liquor habit is distinct
from the practice OF using vinous
Or malt beverages as part Of the
diet. Taken with food at regular
times, light wines or sound beers
are often a preventive of the al
coholic habit entirely, and there
certainly is no proof that they lead
to it, as is often asserted by the
prohibitionists.-Alta.

is having trouble over the desire OF
the town of Folsom, DEL, to
change its name. The town was
named some years ago in honor of
Mrs. Cleveland. The voters are
now anxious to stand we'll with
the administration and want the
town TO be named Lynne Mawr.
The postmaster general has taken
no action in the matter, but is in
receipt of the following letter. sent
by Mr.. Cleveland to the people of
Folsom: II have no objection
whatever to the change of name of
Folsom postoffice to Lynne Mawr.

office by the name of Folsom at
that point. Indeed, l think it a
very proper thing to do.''
