the Capitol To-Day.
The general assembly will meet in Savan-
nah to-3ay, the second time since Savannah
was the capital of Georgia
In their drive through the city this morn
ing the members will pass the house
where the legislature met in 17S2,
three weeks after the British surrendered
the city. 1t is the third house
east OF Drayton street. on the north side of
South Broad street, and was formerly the
home of Gen. Lachlan Mcintosh, of revo-
luticnary fame. 1t was then q 2-story
brick dwelling. 1t is now known as No.
100 South Broad street and is owned and
occupied by Mr.. John d. Robinson. A few
years ago Mr.. Robinson added a third story
TO the house and otherwise changed It's ap-
pearance. The visitors may contrast the
place of meeting then with the splendid
marble capitol of to-day.
AT that time Savannah had less than
5000 inhabitants. 1t had not yet been incor-
porated as a city, and the first bale of
cotton had not been shipped.
The town consisted of a little more
than 400 dwelling houses, a church. and
independent meeting house, a council
house, a court house and filature. South
Broad street was the southern limit of the
town. There were no houses south of there,
and only five houses on that street, and
they were all on the north side. Every
thing beyond was open commons.
The city limit east was Lincoln street,
and the western limit was jefferson street.
One of the five houses that then stood on
the limits was what was known as "Eppin-
gers house, at the corner of jefferson and
South Broad; another was between Bar
nard and jefferson; another at the corner
Of Whitaker street, and the next was the
house where the legislature met in 1882. The
last house was little farther east, but still
west of Abercorn street. Later on the
legislature met in Eppingers house in what
was known as Eppinger's Long Room, pre-
vious to the removal of the capital to
Augusta.

The Blacksmith in Danger.

The sphere of the blacksmith has OF
late years been gradually but surely
narrowing down. and it now begins to
look as if his occupation would soon be
gone. Once he had to make horseshoes,
horse nails and sometimes part OF his
simpler tools; now these are all manu-
featured by machinery. They constitute
separate and independent branches OF
business. and are furnished ready made
to the hand of the smith far better,
cheaper and more serviceaoie than they
could be made in his shop. The last
innovation, however, by which he IS
threatened is the most slgnlflcant OF nil.
A system of adjustable horseshoes with
out nails is about to be introduced into
Eng and. English need of such con-
trivance is far greater than American
need, for, as rule, English horseshoe
ing is diabolical sort OF bungle, and
the cumbersome shoes and ungainly
nails used in England are simply relics
of primitive age and barbarous In their
effect ON the horny substance OF the
hoof. Capable veterinary surgeons have
estimated that twenty-five in every
| 600 horses in England die some ten
wears before their time as n result of
lockiaw or some other damage lnhlcted
in the process of shoeing: The light
shoes and dainty nails of the American
blacksmiths are the wonder and derision
of the English farriers, who regard these
articles as mere toys compared with
their own. There is no doubt, however,
that the estimate which has been made
of loss of horse service in England and
Wales alone, in consequence OF the
necessities of shoeing once o month,
and which is S33, 900, 900, may serve as
a pointer to this country. and when the
saving in expenditure and time and the
increase in the working power of horses
which q perfectly effective adjustable
shoe would effect are considered, the
adoption of such contrivance in Amer
lea would, in all probability, be rapid
and universal. - Mail and Express.

Uses of Soapstone.

A writer in London journal calls at
tention to the unappreciated uses and
preservative qualities of soapstone, a
material, he says, which possesses what
may be regarded as extraordinary quail
ties in withstanding atmospheric infiu-
ences, those especially which have 50
much to do with the corrosion of iron and
steel; it being wellknown fact that the
inside of a steamer which is not exposed
to the action of salt water, like the bot
tom, corrodes much more quickly than
the outside. 1t has, too, an additional
quality in this line, one which adapts it
in remarkable degree as protective
point for ships, and this is the extreme
fineness of It's grain; indeed, ground
soapstone is one of the finest materials
producible, and, from experiments made,
it is found that no other material is cap
able of taking hold of the fibre of iron
and steel so readily and firmly as this.
It is also lighter than metallic pigments,
and on this account, when mixed as
paint, is capable of covering larger
surface than zinc white, red lead, or
oxide of iron. In China, soapstone has
long been largely used for preserving
structures built of sandstone and other
stones liable to crumble from the effect
of the atmosphere; and the covering
with powdered soapstone in the form OF
paint on some obelisks in that country
composed of stone liable to atmospheric
deterioration, has been the means of
preserving them intact for hundreds OF
years.

A Remarkable Accident.
"Heln, Helm Take it off! 2

"Help! Help! lake 1t on :,
The above cry startled Principal
Huber, of the Evangelical Lutheran
school, about l o'clock Tuesday after
noon.
He rushed from the school house, and
was surprised to see one of his pupils,
pretty eleven-year-o'd Pauline Arndt,
come toward him with fiat tin coffee
can protruding from her mouth.
Pauline carries her dinacr in basket.
Her coffee she carries i'll fiat tin can,
the cover of which is screwed ON. After
eating her dinner and drinking her
coffee Tuesday she playfully stuck her
tongue into the small hole on top, and
when she attempted to Withdraw that
useful member she found sho could not
do so.
She ran screaming 20 the school
house, and Mr. Huber tried 70 relieve
her, but found he could not do so. The
imprisoned tongue lad rapidly swollen,
making it impossible TO draw it back
again. Picking her up in his arms the
teacher took her to his homo, No. 70

summoned. and put the suffering little
one to sleep by means of cloroform.
Piece by piece the can was cut away,
but when the small band around the
tongue was reached she physician was
balked-only for moment, however.
A file was procured aud the band care

Round Shoulders Squared.

Il stopping figure and halting gait,
accompanied by the unavoidable weak
ness of lungs Incidental to narrow
chest, may be entirely cured by n very
simple and easily performed exercise of
raising ones self upon the toes leisurely
in n perpendicular position several times
daily. To take this exercise properly
one must take perfectly upright posit-
ion, with the heels together and the toes
ut an angle of forty-five degrees. Then
drop the arms lifelessly by the sides, an
imating and raising the chest to its full
capacity nluscularly, the chin well drawn
in, and the crown of the head feeling as
if attached to string suspended from
the ceiling above. Slowly rise up on
the balls of both feet to the greatest pos
sible height, thereby exercising all the
muscles of the legs and body; come
again into standing position withou;
swaying the body backward out of the
perfect line. Repeat this same exercise,
first on one foot, then on the other. II
is wonderful what Strengthening out
power this exercise has upon round
shoulders and crooked backs, and one
will be surprised to note how soon the
lungs begin to show the effect of such
expansive development.-T The Family

The Buffalo Tree-Hopper.

This active little insect belongs to the
order Hemiptera. 1t is one third of an
inch long, of light grass-green color,
with whitish dots and pale-yellowish
streak along each side. 1t gets its name
from the curious resemblance of two
points, one jutting out from each side,
to the horns of buffalo. Its body is
three sided, not unlike beech-nut in
form. Like other hemiptera, it takes
food by suction, being furnished with a
sharp-pointed beak which it easily
thrusts through the bark into the sap
cells.
1t feeds on the apple and many other
trees from July until the end of the sea-
son. The W inter is passed in the egg
state. The eggs are laid in rows of
punctures made by the female oviposi-
tor, which is thrust through and under
the bark The young Larvae are of the
same color as the adults, and also pune
ture twigs and leaves to feed upon the
sap.
Before the young obtain their wings
they may easily be caught and destroy
ed; but the adults are entirely too &C
tive for this measure to be successful.
However, it is not probable that it will
ever become more than temporary an
noyance to the fruit grower. Twigs in
which the eggs are placed may be cut
off and burned.

Mosquitology.

European travellers in the higher lati-
itudes of North America are often puz-
zled by the abundance of gnats in eli
mate which, ON the other side of the At
lantic, would be wholly free from such
Affections. From Bordeaux to Koenigs-
berg mosquitoes are never seen at a dis
tance from swampy river bottoms, and
here only in the form of dancing mid
gets, sporting in the evening sun and
bothering bathers chiefly by their pro-
pensity to mistake an open eye for a
self-luminous object. On this side of the
Atlantic frosty climates confer no such
immunity. Gnats are fearful plague
at Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, on the shores
of Georgian Bay and all along the north
shore of Lake Superior, throughout the
Maine lowlands and the forest regions
of Lower Canada. The fierce
summer heat of our continental climate
may partly explain that insect
plague, but its chief cause is undoubt-
edly the prevalence of stagnant pools,
which economical, if not sanitary, con-
siderations induced our European cou.
sins to drain centuries ago. Cincin,

Footwear of Indians.

The shoes or moccaSins worn by North
American Indians are II arly all alike in
their general structure. The moccasn. /.
n slipper made of soft ,lcerskin without
n heel, is common to nearly all Of thcm.
Many of them have leg6ings either de-
tached or connected with the moccaSin
or shoe so as to form boot. Some Of
the Indians ornament their nioccas'ns
with beads, quilts or embroidery.
Among the scuthern Indians, where
no protection is needed from the cold, a
shoe is mado consisting simply of solo
of thick hide bound on the foot by
thongs. :.
Among the Araches an old attachment
is found on the boots or moccasins.
This is little projection af the sole IN
front of the toes, generally made III the
shape of little round pad. This is
called cactus crusher and has its pur-
pose.

Fremont's body-guard, was Hungarian

buglers, a Frenchman, to sound a sig
nal. The bugler seemingly paid no at
tention to the order, but darted of
with Lieutenant Maythenyi. A few
minutes afterward he was observed in
another part of the field vigorously pur-
suing the flying infantry.

him, said. Gin the midst of the battle

Hints As To Singing.

A former operatic singer, now teach
er of singing, says that it is impossible
to stand on a carpet or rug and sing
ones best. Bare boards make good
floor to stand on when you sing. Stone
is just as good and glass is better, but
carpets deaden the voice and make q
trained singer feel choked and suffocat-
ing. To sing well one must not have
anything above or in front to catch the
voice. Even the brim of derby Int
will impair the voice of n man who
wears it while he sings. That is why
singers stand far ont by the footlights
to sing. and because the stage of the
Academy Of Music projects far beyond
the proscenium arch vocalists always
will love that old theatre. YORK
