HAYTIAN MINISTER TO THE UNITED
STATES.

The report that the Haytian Repub-
lie has been given up to the United
States increases interest in the repub-
lie with which much trouble has been
feared. Hayti is fortunate in having
as her envoy and minister plenipoten-
tiary at Washington so able and judi
ciOus man as General Stephen Pres
ton.
Mr.. Preston, who transacts most of
his business in New York, because he
can communicate with his govern
nfent more readily thence than from
Washington, is native of the city of
Port-au-Prince. He was borR~ in that
city on November "a, 1882, so that he
is now fifty-siX years of age. His edu-
cation was received at Port-au-Prince
College and in Europe. Previous to
his appointment to this country as
minister he had been a judge of the
supreme court, a senator and a gen.
eral in the Haytian army.
General Preston was appointed min
lister resident at Washington Oh April
%, 1870, and on February IS, 1873, he
was promoted to be envoy eXtraordi-
nary and minister plenipotentiary
from his government to that of the
United States. In June, 1884, he was
dispatched to France on special mis-
sion, but still retained his office in
Washington. He spent two years in
France and then returned to the Uni
ted States.
Hayti is a small nation, but her
minister takes precedence of the Brit
ish, Russian, German, French, Span
ish and all other ministers at Wash
ington on state occasions, General
Preston being dean of the diplomatic
corps. AS such he introduces the
other ministers to the president of the
United States, and goes in advance in
entering reception or ball room.
THE Brennan Daily Banner of the
1st of January, 1889, has the follow
ing:
'"The farmers of west Texas are al
ready beginning to predict big crop
this year and we trust their fondest
expectations will be fully realized.
The long drouths in that section gave
rise to the familiar saying in the north
that sit never rains in Texas" Re-
ports from San Antonio say it has
been raining nearly every day since
the 18th of last November, and the
ground has become so thoroughly
soaked that it is thought with only
one or two opportune showers dur
ing the year abundant crops are as
sured."
The main proposition goes; west
and southwest Texas farmers are
booked for big crops this year of plen-
ty 1889, but the minor proposition is
not according to Hoyle. The San An
tonic reports that showed incessant
rains from the 18th of November to
the close of the year must have been
like some stocks, mOnstrously watered.
November was rainy, but for the first
three weeks in December of the year
just closed, no finer, SUMMER, pleasant
weather ever shone on any city than
gladdened the San Antonio heart
those weeks. When the sun shines
anywhere in Texas it shines in sunny

fIela, however, IS aouDIiess right In say

down TO Dickens and Thackeray, did

The Homeless in France.

No such institution as our English
workhouse exists in France, the only
shelter offered those unfortunate men,
bers of the human family who find
themselves houseless and penniless being
the night asylums, which, though adj
mirable institutions in their way, are
kept up by private charity, and can re-
ceive but very limited number of the
applicants who crowd round the doors
both winter and summer. That the
absence of warehouses in Franco does
not, however, imply much greater pros
perity or thrift than in England is
proved by a statement recently made in
the chamber of deputies by the member
for Indre-et-Loire, who informed the
minister of the interior that in one COM
mune of his department reckoning 5000
inhabitants, no fewer than /, 400vagrants
had been known to present themselves
for aims in single day. This instance
was adduced as an example of the great
increase in the number of vagabonds,
due, presumably, as NJ. Constans OBJ
served, to the hard times experienced
by many of the working classes during
the past few years. 1t may be added
that to put down vagabondage in France
is not easy, offenders of this class only
being liable to prosecution in the event
of their having neither domicile, nor
profession, nor recognized trade-three
conditions that are rarely met with to-
gether.-London Standard.

a Brave Pilot.

One Of the many interesting legends
which are connected with the different
parts of Mt. Desert Island is the story of
the battle of Norwood's Cove. In the war
Of 1912, two British frigates, the Dolphin
and the Tenedos, chased an American
schooner into Southwest Harbor Not
being acquainted with the waters, the
frigates dared not follow, but anchored
just outside of Greetings Island, while
the schooner sought refuge in Norwood S
Cove, behind the forest crowned ridge.
The British dispatched two barges with
nearly one hundred men to capture the
schooner, compelling an American sea-
man to act as pilot. Meantime a large
band of fishermen and farmers had Sc
GREETED themselves in the woods on the
southern shore When the barges had
approached within musket shot, the pilot
sprang to his feet, shouting, Give it to
Fem, boys; don't mind me-" upon which
the Americans opened murderous fire,
which soon compelled the British to re-
treat with the loss of almost the entire
crew Of one Of the bargeg.-Lewiston
Journal.

Information for Tennis Players.

Shoes for tennis are both of canvas and
leather, tan color usually, though it is
not uncommon to see them of checked
cheyiot. The bottoms are nearly flat and
have partial rubber ribbed soles.
Handkerchiefs for tennis are of col
ored silk or colored muslin, though there
are large muslin handkerchiefs with
fancy borders in colors to match the
leading patterns in tennis suitings.
Handkerchiefs for such use require to
be large and useful rather than dainty
and small.
There is such q variety in tennis cloths,
both in pattern and price, that every one
ought to be able to suit herself. There
are flannels in solid colors, stripes and
checks, at 80 to 80 cents per yard; mo-
hair at so cents (six yards makes plain
costume), surah at 65 to rs cents and
Scotch striped outing fannels at 80 cents
Ga yard wide. There is also a pretty cot
ton goods, striped Canton flannel, at 70
cents "a yard wide. All these are pretty
and suitable. Skirts can be of one color,
blouses of another or both alike, or skirt
can be of flannel and blouse of silk. The
best rule is to choose plain, neat styles
and leave the blazing blazers to the un-
fortunate men, though some few girls
wear blazer jackets just like their
brothers.
Tennis players should always wear the
shoes with rubber soles and 10 heels, as
they do not slip nor destroy the court,
and always afford a firm footing, which
no other shoes do, though the others are
certainly prettier.-Fashion Letter.

Never smiled in Life.

A most remarkable case was brought
TO light by the coroner recently during
an inquest on the body Of an 1S-year-old
girl who died Thursday night in q one
room shanty which served as home for
a widow and her six children. Josephine
Grabski, the dead girl, who was the cid
est of the family, had never walked 4
step in her life, she had never seen the
light Of day, never heard the sound Of
voices, never uttered an ineligible sylla-
bic since the day Of her birth and vas
never known to smile.
She ate what was given her, rejecting
nothing. and never making sign that
she desired moro. The only feeling that
this seIni-inaninate creature ever be-
trayed was when q flower would be
placed in her hand. At the time Of her
death her body was no larger than that
of an ordinary 10-year-old child. All
her limbs were in proportion, but her
knees were drawn up 50 that she had
never been able to walk. What sur
prised the family and the neighbors most
was the smile on the face Of the dead
girl. Her countenance looked like that
Of a beautiful angel in sweet rcpose, and
the lips were parted in q heavenly smile,
though she had never smiled in her life.

Here is a scene in a grocery: Two
farmers brought in some eggs to sell.
The one was evidently proud of his eggs
and proud Of the birds that laid them.
He had 4 flock of fine Plymouth Rocks,
and the eggs they laid were beauties. \
dozen of them weighed thirty-nine
ounces, an average of three and quarter
ounces each. The other farmer brought
in his eggs without saying a word, had
nothing to say of them or the fowls that
laid them. a dozen of his eggs weighed
twenty-one ounces, an average of one
and thrce-quartcr ounces each. Both
lots Of eggs were carried to the rear Of
the store by Q clerk, counted and each
man got q cent apiece for his eggs. As
he of the small eggs passed bystander
in going out he winked knowingly and
said: ''That man with the big eggs is a
fool; his hens eat heap moro than
mine, make no moro e9gs-though they
are bigger-but he gets no more for
them. New York Mail and Express.

Daguerreotypes were costly things at
first. In England, where the process
had been patented BY an enterprising
person who stole it from France, the
charge was q guineas (S12.6G for a da-
gurreotype only 344x4l1in., and 4 guineas
1920. 16) for one twice that big. IL this
country the prices for the two sizes were
at first s. and SO, but eventually, when
other processes invaded the field, daguer
reotypes came down to % and 80 cents.
at which there surely could have been
no profit in them. The daguerreotype
had to be very carefully protected from
the atmosphere, and even then was pop
ularly believed 10 fade out ere long. Il
is however affirmed BY Mr., \. Bogardas
and surely nobody has 4 better right
to speal, Observation-Disclosures q prop
erly made dagaerreotype would not
fade out. 1t would become covered by q
film of tarnish that would render the
picture quite invisible, but that could
be by chemical means so cleaned Of that
the picture would stand out IS clearly
as when first made. This lie had ef-
feeted in pictures that had vanished
from sight fifteen years before they were
put in his hands for treatment.
Imperfect and limited in lis uses IS
the daguerreotype was, it was the parent
of the almost divine art Of photography
and the countless variations upon and
applications Of it known today, and
high among tho deathless names upon
flames roll of the immortals, deserves

Pure Air from Coal.

An Euglishman is credited with the
discovery of q method of producing per-
pectly pure air from the combustion of
coal. The process is very simple, and is
described as follows: 1t consists of a
brick chamber about 5x2x2 feet, built
upon the ground. At one end is feed
chamber and fuel chamber, and at the
other powerful exhaust and blast fan.
Placed intermediately between the cham
Der and the fan are baltic plates, splitting
plates, standing bridge with perfor-
ations at the back, and hanging bridge
with perforations at the front. There
are also several carefully proportioned
inlets to supply the exact quantity of air
requisite for perfect combustion. Issu-
ing from fan mouth of twelve inches
in diameter, comes rushing column Of
hot air, marking on the pyrometer at its
exit q steady, uniform temperature of
500 degs. Fahrenheit. Not a trace of
smoke or fume is visible to the eye; not
4 faint of any kind is perceptible to the
taste or smell.-New York Telegram.
