Where Cancels Hair Shawls are Made

We call our cancels hair shawls as we do
because they are not cancels hair. In the
Vale of Cashmere, scene of "Lalla Rookh,"
they are made 1t is an independent state
of India, sought by British officers as "a
health resort. Henry Ballantine, lecturing
before the American geographical society in
New York, said that the Cashmere shawl
industry had, justly, world wide fame.
But it was a mistake TO suppose, rs was
universally done, that the material compos
ing the shawl was camel's hair. No camels
hair entered into the composition. They
were made OF Cashmere goats hair, two
kinds of which, the Putto and Pashimina,
were used respectively for the coarse and
fine varieties The weavers, who were men
and boys. were paid only three cents day.
A few merchants have entire control of the
industry The land paid England an annu-
al tribute OF three shawls, one horse and
fifteen pounds of Pasnmina i'll acknowl-
edgement of her supremacy. Cashmere
was rich in mineral wealth. Four years
ago great amount of snow fell, causing
great avalanches which tore away IA whole
side of mountain, scattering a shower Of
sapphires in the valley below, and lowering
the price of that gem throughout the world.

Germany Nav Get Ii.

Tho news which comes by telegraph
from the Hague, that the king of Holland
is in the last extremity, and regent is
contemplated until the end comes, is of the
greatest importance. The king has no son,
and his daughter cannot inherit his rights
as grand duke of Luxembourg, which small
territory therefore becomes lapsed fief Of
the German empire. The present emperor
is nothing ii not military, and IL cannot be
doubted that he Will do now what his
grandfather did with regard 10 Schle3wig-
Holstein. Any one who does not perceive
that the Hoheu lollerns are acting upon q
wei defined plan of uniting under the
shadow of their empire every community
that can be claimed as German is wanting
in the faculty Of perception, The prece-
dent of Schleswig Holstoin, shows what
may be expected. The German empire
was only entitled TO Hoiste II but good
slice of Schleswig was taken because it
contained harbor on the open sea, which
might be OF extreme future Importance. IL
lis upon the cards that the German emperor
will not be satisfied with Luxembourg, but
will tIkc some of Holland, too, and the
amount will depend entirely on his modera-
ton, for the little state lies at his mercy.
This will give the empire the magnificent
colonies of Holland, which are extremely
valuable, besides bringing ii so close to the
English coast that invasion would be easy,
and the battle Of DOrking foregone con
ClusiOn.

A Great centennial.

This is great era of centennial re-
ioicngs. Cincinnati has just finished
a handsome example; Columbus had
nice little one, aud Marietta was en-
gagged for a whole season. New York
city is now to try her hand.
What New York will celebrate Is the
hundredth anniversary Of the inaugural
ton of the first president Of the United
States. His name was George Wash
ington, and it has been stated that he
rever told II lie
On the 10Th OF next April the chief
executive of this republic, together
with his cabinet, the supreme court
and other distinguished assistants.
will leave Mount Vernon on the POto-
mae. and proceed to New York over
the same path pursued a hundred
years before by the distingui shed Fir-
gilman who was then on his way to be-
come our first president.
But the progress will be somewhat
different. Times have changed. We have
vessels moved by steam now; and we
have the electric wire. Then it took 81
fortnight to transmit persons between
the two places, and almost as long for
the transmission Of thought. Now the
former cover the distance in a day, and
the latter goes in the twinkle OF an
eye.
The surroundings have also changed.
Then we had thirteen states, and nine
millions of people all told. Now we
have thirty-eight states and sixty mil
lions Of people. Then we half occupied
u little strip OF country on the sea-
shore and the tidal rivers. Now we
rule "A continent, and aspire to IL hem
isphere.
Well, we are going to make noise
about ii in New York on the hundrejth
anniversary, and all the nations of the
world are to help us. There is To be Il
vast amount of gunpowder fired off and
an equal supply of oral exhibition.
Chauncey NJ. Depew is TO be the grand
orator of the occasion, and that insure 3
success. DR.. Richard 5. Storrs, ID. d.,
LII. d., is to mako the prayer, and his
eloquent competence is well known.
John Greenleaf Whittier, who was
eighty-one years old last week, il 10
furnish an original poem. and that
means al event in the literary world.
President Benjamin Harrison will de-
liver an address, and Archbishop Cor
rigau will pronounce the benedictiou.
That is an admirable bill of fare, so
to speak; and it will all be rendered
from the steps of the sub-treasury
building in Wall street.-the site OF the
old Federal hall, where Washington
took the oath OF office. He did not know
much about Wall street then, and Wall
street did not know much about itself.
just at present it pretty much runs the
machine; and its 70. Incoming rejoicing
over the fact that constitutional gov
eminent has existed with us for u hun
dred years will attract the attention OF
the civilized world. Cincinnati En-

An English Lady Makes u Plea and
Answers Some Objections.

Answers Some Objections.
Let no man or woman be mistaken Us
TO what this movement for women's
suffrage really means, writes Mrs. Faw-
cett in the Woman's World. We none
OF us want TO turn the world upside
down, or TO convert women into men.
We want women, on the contrary,
above all things to continue womanly-
womanly in the highest and best sense
and TO bring their true woman's in
luence on behalf of whatsoever things
are true, honest just, pure, lovely and
of good report, to bear upon the col-
duct of public affairs. Some people at
tempt to meet the claim of women TO
representation by the absurdly irrele-
want remark, for i can not call IL an
argument, that women househOlders
ought not to vote for members of par
lament because they can not be police
men and can not be soldiers. Who
wants them to be either policemen or
soldiers? There must always be IA GER
tain division of labor between the
sexes. The physical constitution OF "a
woman fits her TO perform certain

cal constitution OF a man fits him
for certain other duties, one OF
which is that of external defenes.
And there are certain other duties
which men and women must undertake
jointly and in cooperation with one
another, and from which the total with
drawal of one sex or the other is
fraught with danger and mischief.
Those who are in favor OF woman's
suffrage maintain that the duty OF low
ing ones country, of understanding
her interests, of endeavoring To inilu-
cncc public affoirs by the choice of
men OF high character and true patriot
ism 10 serve in Parliament, is one
which is incumbent on women as we'll
us on men. There is nothing in the
nature of woman which fits her to be
Il policeman or "a soldier, and there is
nothing in the nature OF Il woman
which units her 10 love her country
and TO serve her by helping to send
good men To promote sound legislation
in Parliament.
People sometimes talk as il fighting
for ones country were the only way OF
serving her. Surely that is taking II
very one-sided view OF nations inter-
csts. All work well done, all service
in lifting up the lives of others to n
higher level, "All we have wished or
hoped or dreamed of good forms the
real treasury Of national greatness.

VAST CATACOMBS
In Which Early Christians Took
Shelter from Persecution.

0n6lltT
There are sixtv-one catacombs, writes
foreign correspondent, which were
originally quarries from which the Ro-
mans obtained the cement and stone for
building their city. In these subter-
ranean passages the early Christians
took shelter in times OF persecution.
There they celebrated the Lords supper
and held their "agapB" or love-feasts.
These catacombs extend twenty-five
miles from the walls of Rome into the
''campagna" or fields around. There
exist underground no less than i POO
chapels, also 600 shafts or decents,
some with steps, others like holes for
ventilation; through the holes the bodies
of their martyred brethren and sisters
in faith and in times OF persecution food
and raiment were let down TO the
Christians below.
There arc in the catacOmbs twenty
two miles of streets, or subterranean
passages. On one Of these decents is an
inscription, blessed are the dead which
die in the Lord hencelorth," an extract
from the Revelation. The early Chris
OCliOollCO biiCli NNtlu III biAO Sho
els, which had tombs Ike shelves super
posed in layers. On these lodges the
bodies of the Christians were placed
after having been embalmed. There is
in each a central tomb called the Tri-
umphal ark. In this common tomb
forty, or even n hundred, bodies of
martyrs were brought down with songs
of triumph and Thanksgiving TO God
as they went step by step singing the
10th psalm.
The immensely OF the catacombs can
be imagined by comparing them TO five
extensive spiders webs placed one up
on another in entire completely; no one
knows where they begin nor whore
they end. Ii those passages OF about
two feet wide could be joined to form
one single street they would extend
900 miles in length. Imagine these SOC
have an idea OF the immensely OF the
catacombs. Tombs upon tOmbs, graves
upon graves, catacombs upon cata-
combs. Sometimes you go down DC
feet under ground, sometimes 100, and
even $50 feet They resemble the
LAYERS of strata in coal mine. God has
preserved these vast catacombs to be
silent witnesses of his truth as it was
protested 1900 years ago. The cata'
combs are named cemeteries because
that word means ~ sleeping-place,
and declares the faith OF the primitive
Christians on the subject of death. The
word death" is not found in the cata-
combs; you may travel league after
laaOua i'm Thorn aud IL il not death bui
life, that is expressed everywhere,
These early Christians never said o.
their departed friends they are dead,
but they sleep" During $50 year:
1000, 600 Christians have been intomed
in the catacombs; OF this number 1000,
| 900 died as martyrs.

A Oh ss-Playing Sultan.

The present sultan is one of the most
enthusiastic chess amateurs in Europe.
He will play the game for hours without
intermission, and will not allow any
matter of state to interfere with the
problem in which at the time he is en-
gagged. His ministers often find them
selves unable to approach the Imperial
presence. for the reason that the sui
tan is deep in n game. They and their
stat:araft have TO wait until the sultan
has chcckmated his adversary or de-
cided upon the next move. Abdul
Hamid has his own court chess-player,
Hungarian, who receives handsome
salary for letting the sultan win few
games off him each day. 1t is said
that the present court Cheeseman's pre-
decessor was dismissed from Office be-
cause he ungenerously insisted on pro-
fitting by his imperial antagonist every
time. The Hungarian master there
fore plays very poor game to the
sultan, and makes a point of looking
crestfallen at each defeat whereat the
house OF Otham crows with delight and
claps his hands.-London Court

Prohibition Losses.

Some interesting figures showing the
tendency Of Massachusetts on the question
of licensing the sale Of Intoxicating liquors
have been submitted to the legislature by
the secretary of state.
In 1886 out of $40 cities and towns only
"a, or Il per cent, voted TO grant lice nscs.
The popular majority against license show
cd 500 per cent of the people of the state to
be in favor Of the policy of prohibition. In
1857, with the same number Of cities and
towns, the majority against license had be
come Bliss per cent OF the total. The total
was 1876 per cent greater than in 1885. In
1883, when the number Of cities and towns
was 35l, 50, or % per cent, voted yes. The
total vote was increased 2.5 per cent in this
year, and !3I5 per cent was in favor of
license. THIS is a setback Tor the Prohi-
b!t!oaistr.
