CHICAGO, Sept. 18.-A Washington
special says: Secretary Tracy made
q decision this afternoon that
will have an important bear
ing on the future building OF
war vessels. He decided to have
the two 3,000-ton steel cruisers, pro-
vided for by the last congress, con-
structed at Brooklyn and Norfolk
navy yards. When the bids for
these vessels were opened last
month, it was found that all OF
the bids were largely in excess OF the
appropriations. OF the other vessel
to be built in the near future, it is al
most certain that one will be con-
structed at the Mare island navy

Gov. Pennoyer and The Railroad Com
missioners.

Governor Pennoyer is not through
with his railroad commission fight.
It will be remembered that last
February the legislature elected
commission In accordance with the
provisions of the amended railroad
law. The governor refused to recog-
nize the commission and appointed
one OF his own, under the terms of
the old law, holding that the new
law, which he vetoed, was not oper-
ative until ninety days after the ad-
journment of the legislature. 1t was
held by the legislature that the pas
sage of the bill over the veto carried
the emergency clause with it, and
put the law into effect Immediately,
the same as If it had not been visited
with executive. dissent. Since then
the question has been in litigation,
and the legislative commission has
been successively sustained by the
state circuit court OF Marion county
and the state supreme court.
The governor is now making what
sailors call a new tack. The railroad
law contains the following provision:
"And each OF said commissioners
shall also, before entereing Upon the
discharge of his duties, enter into
bonds with security, to be approved
by the governor, in the sum of Sl0,-
900, conditional for the faithful per-
formsnce OF his duty as said commits
sioner."
The governor maintains that he
has not approved the bonds OF the
commissioners, and has instructed
Colonel Knight, his attorney, to b&
gin suit to enjoin secretary of state,
Mcbride from paying the commits
sioners their salaries, because they
are illegally in office. The outcome
of the latest and perhaps most in
teresting phase OF this entertaining
judicial muddle will be watched with
mingled interest and anxiety-inter-
est on the part OF the public and anx-
iety on the paat of the incumbent
commissioners.-OTegOntdn, 1s.

Norwegian Fences,

Even so commonplace a thing as a
fence gives character TO the landscape.
This is a matter of importance TO all
who are interested in making country
places and country life as attractive as
possible. The fences Of Norway, as
described, must be an ugly blemish
upon the face of the country.
Two thick stakes of pine, from seven
TO eight feet long, are driven firmly
into the ground within an inch of each
other, and repeated at intervals of four
feet.
Smaller sticks are then placed in a
slanting position between the uprights,
which serve as grooves to keep them
in their place, and they are still fur
ther secured by their being bound to-
gether with twigs of osier.
When completed. it makes % COM
pact a fence that q weasel could
scarcely put his nose through. They
cannot, however, boast of combining
the ornamental with the useful, hav-
ing a gaunt, monotonous look, which
made us long TO see them replaced by

Tricks In Photography.

There are various ways for provid-
ing surprising results in photography,
things that in one age would have
been called magic, but in ours recog-
nized as scientific tricks. The ghost
picture, for instance, in which a
shadowy ghost-through which ma
terial objects are visible-is een be-
tween natural attitudes and occupa-
tons. This is produced by an almost
instantaneous exposure of the figure

raj. Another novel trick was shown
recently in a photograph reproduced
by a prominent trade journal, which
presented the photographer, seated al
a table, playing chess with himself
seated on the opposite side OF the Ia
bic, while he himself stood up in the
background looking at his two selves
playing.
The figures were all on the negative,
which was produced by three success
sive exposures of the plate, parts there
of being masked each time by a black
velvet shutter. Still another trick il
that by which a person who liked that
sort of thing may appear to be photo

a fish, or any other desired style OF
ridiculous locomotion. This is done
by the subject holding upon his lap q

His face appears above the upper edge
of the card, and seems, in the picture,
joined to the funny little body mounted
on the goose or fish. The statue pic

Top.Dressing In Winter,

Old prejudices are hard to get rid
of. One of these is that great waste
usually occurs when manure is spread
over the surface of the ground in
Winter. There are times and places
when such waste occurs, but these are
exceptional. AS rule, Winter man.
ureing is economical, as it surely is
convenient. Manure spread now over
the surface of grass land will need all
the rains and SHOWS it can receive to
saturate it 50 that it's soluble matter
will filter through to the grass roots
The danger where the ground is not
overlooked is rather that the manure
will not get enough water to proper
ly distribute it than that it will be
washed away. The effect on the
grass is seen in Spring in an earlier
and brighter green when growth be-
gins. Hplowed, the top-dressed land
works up more mellow than it than
it does where the surface has been
packed by rains. Coarse manure
spread early is worked down to the
ground by SHOWS, so that the pillow
in Spring can easily turn it under
while il the spreading is delayed un-
til just before blowing, the straw
gathers in front OF the pillow and
makes it hard to do a good job.

Try Not to Cough.

A physician who is connected with
an institution which contains many
children, says: "There is nothing
more irritating to a cough than to
cough. For some time l had been
so fully assured of this that ! recent
ly determined if possible, for one
minute, at least, to lessen the num-
Der of coughs heard in a certain
ward in the hospital of the institu-
ton. By the promise ofrewards and
punishments succeeded in inducing
them simply to hold their breath
when tempted to cough, and in a lit
tie while l was myself surprised to
see how many of tine children entire
Iy received from their disease.
Constant coughing is precisely
like scratching a wound on the out
side of the body; SO long asst is done
the wound will not heal. Let a per-
son, when tempted to cough draw a
long breath and hold it until it
warns and sor thes every air cell,
and some benefit will soon be receiv-
ed from the process. The nitrogen,
which is thus refined, acts as an ano-
dyne to the irritated mocus mem
brane, allaying the desire to cough
and giving the throat and lungs a
chance to heal. At the same time a
suitable medicine will aid nature in
her effort to recuperate. baltimore

Cost Of Keeping Horses.

Livery men rarely get rich. They
seem to charge high prices for brief
use of horse and buggy; but the horse
is often idle, and it is hard to keep it
busy enough to earn its keep and loss
of interest on it's cost and deprecia.
ton. Itcosts good deal, too, to keep
buggies, harnesses and other appur-
tenances of a livery stable in good
order for use. There are other risks
also. Horses let out to strangers,
as many must be, are overdriven, and
often made practically worthless. Only
the wealthy in cities can keep their
own horses and carriages, and they
usually find that it is more for show
than for real practical service. The
free use of horses for a ride is there
fore a luxury which farmers may en-
Joy more frequently than men with
far greater capital in cities.

Warmth Of the Subsoil.

Every farmer who has had expert
ence in understanding knows that one
ofits chief advantages consists in the
greater warmth thereby impaired to
the subsoil. The presence of water
in the soil chills it, and all the more
fit be stagnant, because then little
or no outside air comes in contact
with it. Farmers say, and truly, that
underdrained soils are "cold." By
the removal of water the warmer
air of Summer is admitted to the
subsoil, thus increasing it's tempera-
ture. True, this drained land freezes
deeper in the Winter. This greater
depth of frost expands it, and as it
thaws in Spring, the soil does not
fall back to its former place, but re-
mains open and is filed by air grad
ually warmed as the season advances.
Any one who has tried it knows how
difficult it is to warm downward.
When the surface soil is heated by
the sun in Summer, digging down six
or eight inches the soil will feel much
cooler.

Hung Up to Sleep.

Plunging about on the levees in the
blackness the other night, reporter
discovered retreat, the novelty of
which knocked him all in a heap. 1t
was a lodging-house, but there were
no beds. The guests did not recline
on the floor, either, nor were they
hung up on hooks, and yet they slept.
The room was perhaps seventy-five
feet deep by twenty wide. About
three feet from the wall, and extend

posts placed at intervals. 1t was
about five feet from the floor and was
slightly slack. Underneath it were
other ropes similarly stretched, the
whole resembling rope fence.
With, their backs to this support,
and with both arms thrown over it to
keep from falling, were twenty-five
persons, mostly colored, but among
them several wretched white men, and
all were sleeping soundly. The place

proprietor sat patiently waiting for
more guests to arrive. His charge

Queer Story Of FOrgetfulness.
From the St. Louis Globe Democrat.


A great many people are troubled
with what may be called 'habitual
forgetfulness" in regard to some Of
the minor points of daily life, mani.
tested, perhaps, in their inability to
recall the names of those with whose
faces they are perfectly familiar, OF
the number of their house, or the
street on which they reside; while
Others were seized at times with tenn.
porary amnesic aphasia, scientific
ally speaking, upon endeavoring to
state some fact which they literally
have at the tongues end;" but it is
seldom the latter trouble is mani
tested in such q peculiar direction as
a case which came under my obser-
walton a few days since.
While propounding the usual pre-
liminary questions to a woman who
had presented her two-year- old
daughter for treatment when / in
quired the name of the child, she hes
itated, and then, to my surprise, she
admitted that she was unable to re-
member it. She then stated the
child's age correctly, but did not re-
call the name until after the lapse OF
several minutes, in endeavoring to
soothe the child, the name sprang
naturally to her lips.
This mothers forgetfulness upon
such a matter as the name of her
own child is as astonishing as the
absence of mind exhibited by a prom
inent physician of this city, who, up
on meeting his own daughter on the
street, politely inquired after herself
and parents.

When "J0hn" Took to Washing.

There are no laundrymen in China.
No linen is worn there. The rich use
silk and wooden undergarments, and
the poor wear wooden and cotton. As
starching and ironing are unknown,
the female servants do all the laundry
work. The reason of the great num-
Der. of laundrymen here is that when
the Union Pacific Railroad threw
hundreds of Cinnamon out ofemploy-
ment they cast about for something
to do, and as there was great de-
mand for washerwomen, and scant
supply of them in the West, the Mon
golian turned his attention to her
trade. He learned it SO quickly and
so we'll that he stuck to it, and made
so much money that the calling soon
became popular. Gradually the
laundrymen came East, and no city,
and now few villages of any size in
the whole country are without Chi
nese "laundry."-San Francisco Call.
