GRAM-HERALD yesterday the House bill

vinous and malt liquors, and provided
that druggists should be required 10

This latter clause was stricken out en-
urely by the Senate Committee, leaving
the present law IN reference n drug
gists IN force, and the committee recon-
mended that the license for selling
spirItuous and vinous liquors be placed
al $500 and for matt liquors AT 500.
The committees report VIII not be
adopted as an entirely. he thinks. but
the uniform license of $500 will be

A Dogs Peculiar Mania.
From the Rochester Herald.

+. III. Z. Jaeger has valuable field
spaniel which has evinced very pc
culiar trait. At intervals Mr.. Jaeger
has missed him for half day at a time,
but he always returned about meal time
until one day last week, when he failed
to put IN an appearance for two days.
Thinking him lost, Nh Jaeger inserted
an advertisement in the Herald's want
column with the result that the dog
was returned the next day by a man
who had discovered the reason for the
CANNES frequent absences. He had
developed a mania for riding on street.
cars. His owner had often noticed that
when he started from home the dog
would always be in the car first but
never imagined that he would board
one alone. Inquiry of the drivers
ELECTED the fact that he was a frequent
passenger, unaccompanied by his
master or members of the family. His
favorite position was with his paws on
the window sill, like child, looking
out. On the day that he was lost it was
proven that he had boarded Monroe
Avenue car at Union Street, ridden as
far as the "four corners" where he
elected by the driver at Driving Park
Avenue Tor not paying his fare, was
found later under the seat by the same
driver and again put Off, when he was
picked up and returned to his owner as
above desc ribed. For riding on street
cars the dog is said to be a perfect
crank, but is otherwise very intelligent
Mr.. Jaeger proposes to get season

he can be induced to give up his ex.

Medicinal Properties of Vegetables.

The following information, says the
Scientific American, may be useful to
some at this season of the year, if not
new to many:
Spinach has direct effect upon the
kidneys.
The common dandelion, used as
green's, is excellent Tor the same trouble
Asparagus purges the blood. Celery
acts admirably upon the nervous sys-
tenn, and is o. cure for rheumatism and
neuralgia.
Tomatoes act upon the liver.
Beets and turnips are excellent appe-
Tiers.
Lettuce and cucumbers are cooling in
their effects upon the system.
Onions, garlic, leeks, olives, and sha-
lots, all of which are similar, possess
medicinal virtues of marked character,
stimulating the circulatory system and
the consequent increase of the saliva
and the gastric juice promoting. diges-
ton.
Red onions are an excellent diuretic,
and the white ones are recommended to
be eaten raw as remedy for insomnia.
They are tonic and are nutritious.
soup made from onions is regarded
by the French as an excellent restora-
tive In debility of the digestive organs.

Stock for Cherries g.

In spite of the increase of population,
I think the last twenty years has wit
messed an awful shrinkage of the num-
Der of sweet cherries, in Ohio, at least.
This is owing, L think, to two causes
the prevalence of the black aphis,
which killed many trees and discour-
aged planters, and the practice nursery
men have got into of using the
Mahaleb as stock whereon to bud the
heart as sweet varieties.
My OWE experience, and that of 9TH
or nurservmen, is that it is very much
easier to get good stand of buds On
the Mahaleb stock than on the MAJ
card, and ii seems we'll adapted for
Dukes and Morellos, but for the sweet
cherries nothing is as good as the MAJ
card. The ordinary manner of making
cherry trees OF certain variety is to
buy or raise one or two year seedlings,
transplant in the spring i'll the nursery
row, give vigorous, thorough cultiva-
ton. and bud in July. Trees that fail to
take can be whip-grafted with tolerable
success in the following March, pro-
vided the scions were cut in December
and preserved in moss in very cool
cellar or cold storage house. Vick' s

Oysters.
From the Rochester Union.

From the Rochester Union
The oyster season opens with every
indication of it being a prosperous one
more indications of prosperity, in fact
than any season ever started in with be-
fore. Some idea may be formed of the
revival which the oyster business en-
joys with the advent of September in
one city alone from the fact that during
the summer months Delmonico, accord
ing to the oyster men who supply that
famous restaurant, expends about $500
month for the bivalves, while from Sep
TENDER his oyster bill during the sea-
son averages $4,000 month. One deal
er alone supplies him with 10000 oys-
ters daily at the height of the season.
Then there is the Brunswick, which to
this single dealer is good for 1000 oys-
ters in twenty-four hours; the Hoffman
House takes 5000; the Metropolitan
Hotel requires 1900, the Gilsey, 1000,
the Windsor, $500, the Park Avenue
Hotel l 900. the Fifth Avenue 1000, etc.
And this demand is but small part of
that made in New York every twenty
four hours

A New Use for Cotton,

There has recently been discovered
by M. Chardonnet process by which
cotton can be transformed into sub
stance SO closely resembling silk that
when woven, experts can hardly tell
the difference between the new cloth
and actual silk. The only drawback ex-
listing to prevent the general and imme-
date adoption of this process as q
means of adding to the already large
list of cloths wherewith the fair sex
covers itself is its infammability. It is
believed however that the difficulty can
be easily surmounted.
The material is prepared by submit
ting cotton to the action of a mixture of
nit.ic and ulphuric acids, as done in
making gun-cotton. The resultant mass
Of pulp is then dissolved in alcohol and
ether, to which is added some pro-
tochloride Of tin and tannic acid. The
solution is then passed through fine
holes, in proper machine arranged for
the purpose into bath of water, and
forms flament closely resembling silk
and equally strong and elastic.
The threads may be coIored in any
shade by having the coloring mixture
added to the pulp during the first stage
of manufacture.

A Religious Rat.
From the Baltimore Sun.

That part of Broadway on the West
Side, between Pratt Street and half the
block toward Cough Street, has a rat
whose actions have gained for it the title
OF the religious rat. He is seen at
night, and only when there are services
either in Trinity Protestant Episcopal
Church or Broadway Baptist Church.
He seems to be in very placid humor
when there are services in but one of
the churches named. But when the
two congregations are worshiping at the
same time, as is the case SUNDAY nights,
he becomes uneasy and keeps up a con-
slant running between the two. Last
night when some residents tried to pre-
vent him from going into the ward of
the Baptist Church just as the Rev. Mr..
Phillips began sermon on "The Evils
OF Liquor" the rodent made an attack
upon the party. Several ladies
screamed Justify, which caused the rat
to beat retreat and soon disappear
within the shadows of Trinity. Shortly
after he was seen to get into the Baptist
yard. He remained but short while,
and he returned to Trinity. and vice
versa. When there is service in but
one church he remains somewhere
about the edifce until it is over, never
changing except to satisfy himself that
there is no service in the other church.

Gounod's Opinion of Mozart.

Who, like Mozart, has traversed the
immense scale of human passions
Who has touched their far distant limits
with such answering accuracy, equally
proof against the inaptitudes of false
grace and the brutalities of lying vio-
lence? Who else could thrill with an
guish and horror the purest and the
most eternal forms? x Oh, di-
vine Mozart, didst thou lie indeed on
the bosom of infinite beauty, even as
once the beloved disciple lay on the
Saviour's breast, and didst thou draw
up thence the incom parable grace which
denotes the true elect Bounteous ma
ture had given thee every gift-grace
and strength, fcllness and sobriety,
bright spontaneitv and burning tender
ness, all in that perfect balance which
makes up the irresistible powers of thy
charm, and which makes OF thee the
musician of musicians. greater than the
greatest, the only one of all-M ozart.

The Imperturbable Briton.
From the St. Louis Republic

Charles E. Siseme sat at the table
where Judge Terry was killed by Maggie.
Mr.. Siseme is an English traveller, just
from India, and he never moved from
the table or ceased eating until he had
finished his breakfast. This has been
set down as an extreme case OF NIL ad-
m,irari, but perhaps it was mere polite
ness. Perhaps Mr.. Siseme, having just
arrived in the country, thought it was
one of our customs, part OF our lnsti-
buttons, for an ex-state supreme Judge
to slap the face of Federal justice, and
then to be Immediately shot by an
expert in getting the drop. Your we'll
