LESLIE CULLoM, Acti..g Coll ctcr OF
Customs, Port Tognsend:
You were confirmed on the eleventh

Dealers report an increased de-
mand for stable lanterns. This is
not due to any large number of newly
erected stables, but to the fact that
the population OF onr beautiful city
has largely increased and the resi-
dents require the services of LAM
tern to enable them to keep from
falling over irregular sidewalks and
pitfalls. 1t is whispered among the
old residents that lights will be put
on the hill a few days before the
millennium. We can hardly credit
this piece of good news, and if it is
so we trus. the committee on street
lighting will arrange to place the
lights in position at least a week be
fore that important eEHfnt occurs.
, 1889-02-28

The ARGUS has on several occasions
called attention of the officials to the
bad condition of the sidewalks The
fact that the walk on Maple avenue
at Jefferson street has been finished
is convincing proof that the contract
ors read the paper. The walk should
now be continued along Jefferson
street in front of and beyond the
rectory. AS it is there is no incline
from Myrtle avenue on Jefferson and
it is merely a stumbling block for
after dark pedestrians. Another
hour on the work and it would have
been satisfactory. We are glad, how
over, that even the boards We're laid
on the stringers. Now if our street
commissioner will walk with US to
the foot of Taylor street stairs we
will us show him the vast amount of
comfort to be derived by placing a
few loads of dirt in that part of the
street. It might be a lesson from
which our city fathers would derive
some benefit if q lawsuit for damages
would oe entered against them. As
we suggested few days ago; if the
city cannot afford to fill in the space
with dirt, let them fix light at the
foot Of the stairs. Our citizens
all like to have pleasant things said
about the town in which they make
their home but when it comes to say
ing unpleasant things, or presenting
cold facts to them, they squirm like
worm under the foot. It would afford
the editor of the ARGUS much pleas
ure to boom the town to its fullest
extent but he cannot conscIentiously
do so when the city SO neglects to
look after the welfare of its residents
by willfully permitting the streets to
remain in their present condition.
We trust that there will be a council
man present at the meeting Friday
night who will feel himself sufficient
ly interested in the city affairs to
bring the matter before that body
and have some immediate action
taken.

The Whipping Post in Delaware.

"Our whipping post doesn't seem tc
take very well with your people uT
here" said Governor Biggs of Della
ware. [ told him that there did seen
to be something of feeling in New
York against the whipping post and
other methods of sixteenth century
punishment.
"Well," continued the old gentle
man, eve are oId-fashioned peopl,
down in Delaware, and presume We
are away behind the times in a good
many things, and rather set in ouI
ways, and that method of dealing with
certain classes of criminals is one of oU
ways. Now, am not an apologist fol
the whipping post, because 1 don't be.
lieve that Delaware needs any apologies
TO be made for her people or her acts,
and if ] did they wouldn't come with
very good grace from her Executive; but
/ can tell you some facts.
There is not in the State of Delaware
to-day single penitentiary. If a.man
beats his wife, or sets fire to n neigh
boris barn, or breaks into house, he
ism t shut up with lot of other crimi-
mails, with full time and opportunity to
learn all their tricks that he did not
know before. As preventive of crime
the whipping post has much greater
terror than term in penitentiary,
aud ] have never known of man that
came back for the second dose. He
simply leaves the State Maybe he
comes to New York; 1 don't know At
any rate he seeks another home, and
you may rest assured that if he stays in
Delaware c lives very quiet life. To
be sure, it is II relic of barbarism, but it
is orr way. - New York Star.

The Toy Shop of the World.

Birmingham, England, is the verit-
able toy shop of the world, and pro-
duces prodigious quantities of cheap
goods. This would be impossible, but
for the unlimited command of trained
labor. The rapidity with which work is
done is marvellous. Years are needed to
acquire the necessary dexterity; the eye,
the hand, the whole system has to be
trained, and at last even the rapid
movements of an accomplished organ
players fingers are hardly more sur
prising. Everything is sacrificed to ac-
quire great efficiency in one depart
ment, and the worllpeople often suffer
i'll bodily health and intellectual vigor.
No one is to blame for this; masters,
workpeople, the age are free from fault;
competition rules everything nowadays,
and any employer with the command of
a trained staff would hopelessly under
sell rivals les alive to their own in
terests, and who gave their laborers
variety of occupation. Still, it is
mournful to think of life being passed
III the performance of one small me-
chanical operation days, months, years
grinding needles, cutting up tiny bits of
metal, or stamping q name on Il finished
article; it is the penalty of highly
organized society, and one that we must
pay. If the Birmingham mechanic
occasionally gets large wages-not so
large as sometimes supposed, nor is the
proportion of skilled artisans great-it
must never be forgotten that these
wages are thoroughly earned. In some
trades, unless n man reaches certain
standard, he is useless and is cast aside,
and disgrace and neglect await him.
Perhaps some self suificiency is to be
expected in men who can get through a
difficult task better than any of their
neighbors, and they may well, knowing
the obstacles they have surmounted, feel
conscious pride in their superiority.

Jumbo Among Chimneys.

The tall chimneys erected by the Har-
grave Globe yarn mills now bid fair to
be eclipsed by one beng erected at the
Fall River Iron Works Company's mill.
The experts on the heights of chimneSTs
say that 1T will be the second highest ~
/ the country.
Instead of hosting the brick and NOR
tar on the outside, as is commonly done,
an elevator is being built to run up the
interior of the chimney. 1T is to be run
by hosting engine by means Of a wire
cable. AS the work progresses the guides
for the elevator will be erected inside,
and the overhead work moved upward.
There will be 100000 bricks used,
and the total cost will not be far from
$4,000.
The work on the foundation is COM
pleted. 1t contains 1000 tons of Fall
River granite, held together with 700
barrels of Portland cement. The bot
tom stone is eight feet below tide water,
and the top one is eight feet above.
The total height of the chimney above
the level of the ground will be $40 feet.
The pressure on the foundation stones
will be two and a-half tons per square
/ foot. At the base the stack will be
square, but about twenty feet from the
ground the corners will be sloped away,
and the whole affair will rise III circular
form into the air, and in general out
line will seem like a gigantic base ball
bat. Away up in the air the oh mney
will be crowned by a terra Gotta cap,
each section of which will be five Feet
thick Other dimen lions are: Diameter
at base, 80 feet; diameter at head, q
feet, diameter at smallest part, Il feet

Invisible Threads.

O. ". Boys, in lecture delivered at
the Society of Arts, London, described
the Improvements he has made IN sus-
pending fibres used in the construction
of the most exact scientific apparatus,
saws the Pittsburg Dispatch. No wire
could be drawn fine enough, or thread
wove fine enough, while spun glass,
though fairly fine, is too stiff material
for the most delicate purposes. Besides,
glass has not the requisite elasticity, and
the same fault precludes the use OF
spider web. A single fibre of silk, OBJ
tanned by washing cocoon fibre AND
splitting it so as to separate the two
component parts of which it is made, has
been largely used in exact instruments,
but even this was not sufficiently fine to
obtain absolute accuracy.
Requiring something superior to any
thing then existing for some very deli
cate work, Mr.. Boys was led to the ex-
detrimental manufacture of fibres by
melting rock crystal in an oxhydrogen
jet, drawing it into rods and then
drawing these rods into the finest
threads by attaching them to the tail of
an arrow, which is shot from a cross
bow as soon as the rod is again melted.
He made one of these threads less than
10000 inch in diameter, and can make
them of any size down to the limit of
micros copic vision, the ends being the
finest known to exist, because it is i'm
possible to trace them up to the end
with q microscope. They are certainly
not more than one-millionth of an inch
in diameter, and to give an idea of what
this means Mr.. Boys told his hearers
that if the whole of piece of quartz l
inch in diameter and l inch long were
to be made into q thread of this size it
would take an express train, travelling
at the rate of sixty miles an hour with
out ceasing, thirty years before it had
Travelled a distance equal to the length
of the thread.
Threads as fine rs this are only useful
as microscopic objects, but those of
10000 of an inch, and even finer, can
be employed by those accustomed to
handle them. Such thread is 10000
times less stiff than spun glass, and
stronger than a piece of steel of the
same size-if such could be made-and
will carry weight equivalent to eighty
the square inch.

THE King of the Sandwich Islands
ridicules the report that he abandoned
his projected trip to Paris because he
couldn't raise $40, 900 for expenses, and
intimates that he could raise $10,050 if
he wanted it. His Dusky Highness is
utterly regardless of expense SO long
as his subjects have to pay it.
The Italian Government is agitated
at the alarming and increasing exodus
of its sons to this country. 1t is to be
hoped that this agitation will be pro
ductive of beneficial results to both
countries. If the criminal class of It
aly's population who annually come
here can only be kept at home or con-
scripted and shipped off to Abyssinia,
this country will be profusely grateful
until such time as the strong bars of
an effective immigrant law can be

Marauding Soldiers Burnt to Death

An imperial decree briefly notices a
serious affair at Feng hsien Hsien, near
Shanghai. An officer and party of sol
diers belonging to the Salt Administra-
ton service attempted feloniously to
carry off by by force quantity of salt
lying outside the house of salt maker.
The inhabitants of the place rose apon
them in fury and burnt them to death,
fourteen lives in all being lost. The
Emperor has no pity for the dead. who
brought their fate upon their own heads
Nevertheless, the lawless ferocity shown
by the salt makers must not be allowed
10 escape punishment. The authorities
are therefore ordered to arrest forthwith
the principal offenders. Various penal
ties are inflicted on the local authorities,
civil and military, one of the latter be
