GINNING WEST.

A telegraph dispatch in last Sun
days Sal. Lake Tribune states that
Mrs. Frank Leslie is about to make
her first trip west of Chicago. This
is a mistake. Mrs. Frank Leslie,
her husband, and a round dozen of
their staff Of literary and artistic
ladies and gentle men. visited Virginia
City, New, in the latter '70s. They
were travelling by special train OF
palace cars.
1t is to be hoped that Mrs. Frank
Leslie will visit the Yellowstone
Park, Shoshone Falls, and Wood
River; as, il she does, her visit will
result in q large influx OF tourists
which will do US a grea. deal of good.

WORSE THAN Ku.KLUXISM.

We have carefully RETAINED from
commenting upon Governor Steven.
sons action in signing the omnibus
division bill, because we hoped that
there was some mistake, that be had
either not signed it, or had signed
under misrepresentation. But doubt
is no longer possible. The facts are
vouched for by so many reliable per-
sons, and with such completeness Of
detail, that they must be believed.
The bill failed to pass the Council
within tho time fixed by law for the
duration Of the session. Some time
after midui ght OF the Goth and last
day, President Clough declared the
session ended and the Council ad.
journed sine die. Speaker Burkhart
had previously, some time before, ad-
journed his House according to law.
Then majority or an alleged major
ity (for there was no "call of the
House," hence there is no evidence to
show how many bona fide members
of the Legislature were presently
passed or pretended to pass the bill
which was signed by Governor Ste
venson, who was drunk at the time so
that he could not know what he was
doing. But he acted in pursuance of
q conspiracy to carry out which the
aid of the United States Marshal and
a largo number of deputies had been
invoked.
This was most dIsgraceful act
1t was more, it was Infamous. The
doings Of the ku. Klux in the South
were not more outrageous. Here
was Legislature adjourned accord.
ing to law, with a strong majority (l3
to 10 in the House, aud : to 4 in the
CounciD having succeeded, by strict
adherence to its rules of government,
in preventing the passage of an OBJ
noxious, unjust and ruinous bill.
Yet the Governor sides with a mob
and aft es bis official signature to it
when he knew that it was no law at
all!
Such outrageous conduct should
meet its just reward by the prompt
removal of the offender, and any
other official who TO k part in the
conspiracy should also DO removed at
once. And we greatly mistake the
temper of the administration if such
is not the result OF this most alarm
ing attempt to override the rights of
m,norities. Already the leading Dem.
ocrats are most outspoken at tho ont.

disgrace put upoa them by their
partisans and are justly alarmed at
the possible consequences of such
precedent on the eve OF the accession
to power Of a majority party.

used Others have broad ribbon folded in
half run in and out near the edge, then
spread out full width and tied in large bows
where the curtains are looped back. Some
beautiful lace curtains have bands of colored
embroidery to match. Very large silk or
worsted tassels, made in the colors of the cur
tain, are sometimes set close together to form
a valance.
A portiere hung before door or very
large window may have a piece cut to form
a valance, draped over the thick curtain
pole. This has a very graceful effect. This
is also done with soft silk, over a lace or art
muslin curtain. Some new window blinds
have an insertion of coarse lace or applique
linen ON net, after the style of Holbein work,
near the edge.
1t is still much the fashion, as summer
comes on, to lay mating GU the floor and
scatter small rugs about, in eastern style
Occasionally mating is laid on the walls, as
a dado or up to the ceiling; and fringes,
corresponding are carried across the ceiling,
merging IN the center, where a large eastern
looking lamp probably hangs.
The pretty ''overdoors," or rallied shelves,
are rapidly gaining in favor. They are paint
ed to correspond with the room, and look
like little straight or curved balconies, with
or without a bracket above, holding china
ornaments. They are to be seen in bedrooms
as well as boudoirs, and any village carpen-
ter could make them, and the enameling
could be done at home. They fit the top of
the door, are fixed to the wall, and are about
six inches high

GASOLINE Stoves for Cookinr.

This is the season for the buying and using
Of gasoline stoves, which stand out promi-
nently among modern appliances for tighten
ing the burdens of housekeeping in hot
weather. These stoves appear to be growing
rapidly in favor, especially for use in homes
where no servants are kept One housewife
who has had experience with them says
they rob cooking of its most wearing feat
ure the intense heat of a kitchen in which a
wood or coal stove or range is in use in sum-
mer. Meals are quickly prepared and the
fire can then be at once extinguished.
The importance of care in the use OF gaso-
line rs fuel cannot be too strongly empha-
sized, and purchasers should spare no pains
in learning the nature of this fluid and i'm
pressing upon all in household that care
lessness is not to be tolerated in the manage
ment of a gasoline stove. On the other hand,
it is only by gross carelessness and the most
willful refusal to adhere to instructions in the
operation of stoves as now constructed that
an accident is possible in their use.
Most stoves are now so made that it is i'm
possible to fill them while the burners are
lighted, but if a stove is sold not so construct
ed the purchaser should never fail to turn
out all burners before filling. With lay down
tanks and other devices it is impossible to
overflow the tank or spill oil on the floor. If
this is done, the burners should not Delighted
until the fluid has been wiped up and doors
and windows opened, and the room thorough
ly aired, so there should be left in the room
little or no gas from evaporation.
As to the cost of running a gasoline stove,
this is in part matter of good management.
If the stove is not lighted until the articles to
be cooked are ready to be put over the fire
and is promptly extinguished when no. longer
needed, much waste of fuel is avoided. A
good rule is never to keep burner going I'M
less something is cooking over it. OF course
it will often happen that it is desirable to
lower the fame when it is soon to be used
again rather than to e1tinguish it entirely.
In household where prompt meals and sys-
tematic work prevails gasoline need not be an
expensive fuel; at least such il the experience
of number of thrifty housewives

VORTEX RINGS.

Az the apparatus needed for producing
tsies5 rings at will, explains correspondent
OF Scientific American, from which journal
fi1a annexed cults reproduced, is an ordinary
pasteboard hat box, having a circular hole of
four or five inches diameter in the cover.
Two pads of blotting paper are prepared,
each consisting of six or eight pieces. Upon
one pad is poured a small quantity of muri-
arc acid, and upon the other a similar guam
Try of strong aqua ammonia. These pads are
piassed in the box and Immediately a white
clOud IS formed, which consists of particles
of chloride of ammonium so minute as to
fi0aE in the air.
BY snlartly tapping opposite sides of the
box puff of air is sent through the circular
Opening Of the cover, carrying with it some
OF She chloride of ammonium The friction
Of t!,e air against the edges of the cover re-
tz5rds the outer portion of the projected air
column, while the inner portion passes freely
through, thus imparting a rotary motion to
ttse body of air adjoining the edge of the Gov
e., fhe axis of revolution being annular
after the ring is detached the central portion
of the air column continues to pass through
Il, thus maintaining the rotary motion.
Wheu two rings are projected in succession
IN s7Icb q manner as to cause one to collide
win the other, they behave much like elastic
sDlid bodies. By making the aperture in the
box cover elliptical, the rings will acquire a
vIbratory motion. BY fastening the box
coCeI- loosely at the corners, the box may be
tllTHed upon its side and rings may be pro-
je-ted horizontally. It is obvious that smoke
naay be used in this experiment in lieu of the
chloride of ammonium

Nice hot cakes for tea can be made by the
recipe following: Mix together one pound of
-four, one teaspoonful of baking powder, a
pinch of salt, and if liked a little sugar; then
rub into it two ounces of butter and make
it into dough, with about half pint skim or
buttermilk. Work the dough as lightly as
possible; roll it out about three-quarters of an
inch thick and cut into cakes with a cutter.
Bake in moderate oven, and when done pull
the cakes open with two forks, butter well in
side, put them together again and serve hot;
or the ingredients may be made into batter
just stiff enough torun, which can be dropped
by spoonfuls on a well CREASED tin and finished
off as above
