ways reminds us Of the overgrown pump
kin in which Cinderella went 10 the ball.
IL the Shah were TO drive in an open car
rage through the streets very few would
go out of their way TO see him.
The great success OF his progress
depends not upon his individuality,
but upon the fart that the monar-
chical and aristocratic managers OF the
constitutional show hsve brought out all
their circus properties in order TO do him
honor. The Prince and Princess and all
the ROYAL family. the royal carriages. the
royal dukes, and the royal and noble brides
and bridegraOms, the royal liveries, and
the richly-capaRlsoneds household troops
and veOmen % the guard-these are the
things which London went out into us
streets to see. The British monarchy
erning institution, but as the organizer
of frst-class circus-sh0w procession
it can beat Mr.. Barnum himself. This Is a
side OF royalty which too often escapes at-
tention. The mob in all countries dearly
loves pageant, and this week It has bad
pageants enough and TO spare. We heartily
sYmpathize with the popular taste. We like
the color and glitter, the excitement and
movement Of n stately procession. ANY
thing that floods with music the streets of
this toiling city. and fills our sombre
th0roughfarps with the dancing streamers
of the Iancers. and tho Oyer-cRnOpying
rainbow of flags and banners. is welcome,
whether 10 comes from above or below
whether 10 be a democratic demonstra-
ton. civic procession. or a royal pro-
gress.
This being the case we would respect
fully venture % suggest TO the managers OF
the Royal circus the propriety ol being
little less sparing IN their pageants. and
we would even venture TO make certain
proposals As To- the better ordering of the
show i'm future. First and foremost there
should always be at least one Royal pageant
of the first class before every fresh de-
mand fora new Royal grant Secondly,
that it should he made condition Of every
Royal grant IN the future that the recipient
shall once IN five years provide at his
own expense one public pageant at
least as good az q Lord Mayors show.
Thirdly. that the route of the process
sion shall be extended so AZ 70 enable all
London 10 see the show. FouT hly. that
tho ROYAL procession shall walk and not
trOt. A pageant cauuot be appreciated II
~ whsks past like an express train.
Fifthly-we were going 20 suggest that the
chief persou8ges should be labelled, but If
that he impossible their places IN
the procession should be clearly indicated
on the Official programmes. There ara
other suggestions, but II these were
adopted they would suffice 10 immensely
strengthen our ancient monarchy against
the ouslaughts of Mr.. Labouchere and
Mr.. Jacoby

Getting Even with the Secretary Of War
lBy telegraph 10 th8 Di3patchl

PrrsBUEGH, July PA special from Steu-
hcuville. Ohio. says: As has been antlcl-
pated for The past week the Panhandle
railroad Company and the OHIO river
stesmboat-men collided this morning.
The railroad company recently received
permission from the Secretary OF War 10
close mp the channel OF the river at Nteu-
beuyillo bridge for the purpose of replacing
the channel span. The rIyer-men appealed
in vain % the Secretary Of War 10 have the
permit revoked. When the coal iiectarrlyed
40 tine bridge this morning they found the
channel almost entirely filled with heavy
piles arranged IN DENTS. There was short
consultation, and then without advising
the men az work IN the channel Of their M
tentiOn the cOal-b0at advanced with three
barges abreast came ar full speed upon the
pile-bents. breaking down twenty-five OF
tnem, breaking the plle-driVtr barge loose
from IT'S mOOrlugs, and badly damaging
In. The men on the barge had a narrow
escape from being drowned under the tow
aud work wa. immediately suspended.
Hardly had they time % recover from
their escape when another boat, the Pa
clEc. came down hy the same route
and took away thirty-fve more Of the
piles. leaving over half the channel clear
FOR the following boats. Immediately after
this the railroad company ordered the con-
stuction Of large apron piers above the
fridge. which viii edectuall close the
channel for the boats. Both the railroad
and steamboat-mon are equally determined
u enforce their rights in the premises, and
the outcome Will create intense interest all
along the OHIO and among the riyer-men
generally. as the serious trouble threaten
"a Will demand the interference OF the
Government 10 settle whether the railroad
has right 20 impede river navigation that
its own trains may run uninteuu ptedly.

CONCERNING cOeWEBs.
a Scientific Gentleman Tells How tho
Spider Makes Her Home.

Each individual spider is endowed with
a spinueret. or natural spinning machine,
saws Professor Claves in the S'rlss Cross,
through which can be drawn innumerable
strands so fine that they can be seen only
under powerful microscope (Leeuwen-
hOeck claims that it takes 100 900 OF these
strands 70 make a thread as thick as HAIR
from O mans head) First, our spider be,
gins 10 draw from ont her spinnerett cord
of a. many Of these strands aS seem TO her
good and fastens 1t TO some leaf or twig,
then runs on another leaf spinning oil the
while: fa-tens again 20 that aud TO another
and another continuing until circle 10
formed incl0sing as large space az she De
irus for the outer boundary Of her Wep.
g hen she passes back and forth over her
work. adding fresh threads and strengthen
ing this outer line, which she secures 10
every possible object. Finally she stops,
iasteus her thread with special care, and
begins 20 run around the circle, spinning
a, she goes but now carrying her fresh
threads carefully raised upon one hind
foot thus keeping il from touching the
older strands and becoming glued 10 them
" hen half way round she stops, pulls her
thread tight lastens II very strongly, ana
a firm line IS drawn straight across the
centre If the circle. She runs down this
centre line 90 the middle, fasteus another
thread 10 ~ there. carries 1t 70 new point
on the outer edge. fastens II. and We now
see that She is engaged in making those
lines in the web that look so like the spokes
Of q wheel.
She repeats this operation again and
again. until oh the radli or spOkes arc
formed. When they are done she caretully
tests each thread bv pulling, to make sure
that n Is firm and strong, and, II one
proves unsatisfactory. she either strength
ems or remakes it altogether. Now that
the main lines are built orr spider goes
once more to the centre point and begins
10 SPIN again-this time in circles-fasten-
ing to each radius as she passes. A. first
these circles, OF more correctly splrtus are
placed quite close together but she leaves
over wider and wider space between az
she approaches the outer edge. The outer
circle and the radii where spun Of SILK,
which becomes dry directly after leaving
the SPIDERS body. Is of great strength and
very firm but these spirals are formed OF
IL substance which differs essentially.
When first drawn from the spnneret 1t
is extremely glutlnous-a most important
property. as by this II Is enabled ~ adhere
Tremendously 10 the radu-and II Is besides
go highly elastic ~ To be capable OF beng
pulled far ont ~ place without breaking.
When the spirals are finished the spider
a.aiu returns 10 the centre and proceeds 10
bite OF the points If all the radil close TO
the first encirclng line. by which she much
increases the elasticity OF her web. 1t Is
IN or beneath this central opening that the
spider usually sits and watches for the
coming OF ner prey.

10 the ground. and tearing the toga from
his shoulders, enycloped her IN Its ca
pacious folds, thereby extingushlng the
flames. She was, however, 80 badly burned
