SwOrdAsh,

Swordfish meat is firm and its flavor supe-
rior to that of the halibut, and it is entirely
fresh and above reproach. 1t is mystery
that New York should so fail to appreciate a
good thing. The coming Of the swordfish is
always an interesting fact, with no little mys-
terry about it, too. They are not here and
then they are here. Nobody knows where
they come from and no one ever saw young
one on the American coast. They are raised
In the Mediterranean sea, and the old folks,
leaving the little ones behind, spend their
summers along our shore, and chiefly about
Block Island. 1t takes pretty smart fish to
lay his course from Gibraltar to Block Island
every year without fail, and the novements
and migratons of the swordfish are note
worthy illustration of the strange and clever
ways of hes-Hartford Courant.

The therapeutic value of regions below the
sea level, for asthmatio or consumptive pa
tents, who have there continuously higher
atmospheric pressure than at the sea level,
has Of late been subject Of investigation by
Dr. Lindsey He finds that excellent effects
have been thus obtained in the valley of Con-
chilla, near Los Angeles, Cal, about 27S
feet under tho sea (barometric pressure only
about nm. higher. The most noteworthy
place Of the kind on the earths surface is
probably the Dead sea district Il, $50 feet,
and the following are some others: Lake

a short experience in that field he was called
to st. Johns church in Brooklyn. Three
years later he became rector Of Christ's
church Mt Hudson, n. Y. In 1865 he was
made professor Of ecclesiastical history of the
General Theological seminary in New York,
Of which he subsequently was made dean.
IL was not until nine years ago that he was
elected to the Springfield bishopric. He is
the author of several books which are consid-
his masterful addresses to the Pan Anglican
conference attracted wide attention.
He is known as pronounced high church
man, having been subjected to not a little
adverse criticism on account Of his so called
ritualistic tendencies just before his elevation
to the bishopric. In fact his marriage creates
the more surprise from the fact that his high
church beliefs and his long single life have
created the belief that he favored the celibacy
of priests although he never preached on the
subject.
His marriage was exceedingly quiet. He
was married in the morning at Trinity
church, New York, and walked from the
Aston house to the church unaccompanied
At the church door he met the sexton, whom
he knew and asked him:
"Did you know that there was to be we'd
ding here this morningi"
YES" said the sexton; 'are you to offici
ate"
mo; l am to be the bridegroom" answered
the bishop. The sexton was dumfounded.

Carlisle on the Administration

Unless all the indications are grossly de-
ceptive, II Is safe to predict that at the
close OF the present administration, the an
nual expenditures Of the government for
purposes and objects now provided for by
law will be far greater than ct any time
during the last administration, and that
many new projects of more than doubtful
propriety will have been inaugurated. the
support OF which will tax TO the utmost all
the resources of the treasury. But before
that time the public patience will be ex-
hsusted and the Republican party will be
called TO strict account for the subervi-
ency to special interests and classes, for
Its reckless disregard Of Its most solemn
pledges, and for Its continued failure to
give any substatial relief to an overtaxed
people.-Speaker Carbide in the August
Forum,

One of the many wonderful creations on
exhibition in the other departments of the
show is an enormous vase OF pate tendre, or
porcelain 1t is eleven feet high, and was
made by Messrs Brownfields, OF Cobridge,
who write Of it as follows;
1.-The vase, which is the largest specimen OF
porcelain pate tendrel ever produced, is eleven
feet in height. and its diameter is six feet
four inches, including the ornamental figures.
Its component parts are of various tints, OBJ
tanned by impregnating the white porcelain,
while in a liquid state, with the necessary
chemical ingredients.
1.-THE original conception was TO symbolic

gether the broken pieces, with the result that
few persons would detect the breakage."

The houses are built principally OF bamboo
and palm leaves, brought from their native
soil for this purpose, and were constructed
entirely by Javanese laborers In building
them hatchets and knives were the only tools
used. Not a single nail or screw is TO be
found In the entire village, the bamboo
framework being bound together with vege-

kind Of ornamentation appears on the walls,
In which there are no windows. They are
covered by thin coating OF fine clay on
which patterns In leaves or bamboo rind are
carefully arranged. Even the doors and
floors are Of bamboo, and the furniture is
almost primitive in its simplicity.
The twenty women form very important
part Of the little community, for upon them
devolves most of the manual labor. Four or
five Of them do the cooking and washing for
the entire village, while the remaining work
is divided among the others, always except

fined to the theatrical performances.

STATION OF EXPOSITION RAILROAD.
passenger railway which has recently been
made accessible to the public. The immense
space devoted to the different parts of the ex-
hibition made the construction Of rapid
and economical communication n real neces-
sity, and its success, increasing daily, plainly
proves its importance.
Conceived by the general director Of the
exposition, M Applaud, the construction OF
the railroad has been executed by MeSsrs
Gallot & Co. in such short time that one
hardly understands how they managed tC
s,lrmount the numerous difficulties caused by
the narrow alleys, the short curves which
were necessary and the creation of an entire
ly new rolling stock.
The illustration Of the railroad shows how
carefully the builders tried to satisfy the
public's taste. The features of the depots are
of rare originality and show practical dis,
tribution. They look like pretty resting
points and seem to attract the travellers at
tention; they are, besides, protected from
sun and rain by wide tent like roofs. We'll
furnished Bullets offer, at the end stations,
their refreshments to the visitor. All in all
the Paris exposition railway demonstrates at
once the practical sense of the French people
and their appreciation Of the tasteful and or.
namental-one of the most prominent traits
Of the Gallo character.
