Eight or Nine Hours.

LSst night certain members of the
Eight Hour League called at this office
with a letter of inquiry, asking how it is
that the men at work on the West Lake
park work nine hours day, when there
is city ordinance fixing days work at
eight hours. This matter came before
the Park Commissioners at recent
meeting when it was explained that the
work now being done in the West Lake
park is paid for from the subscriptions of
the citizens, and therefore does not
fall under the head of city work.

A committee of the Board of Educa-.
ton went to Brooklyn Heights yesterday
to look at the sites for schoolhouse. IT
had been proposed to select lot in the
vicinity OF Soto street and Wabash ave.
nue., but the citizens living in that part
OF the city objected to the location there.
on on the ground that it was too far dis
tant from the settled part of Brooklyn
Heights, and that the school would be in
a hollow. The committee was taken
over the ground and shown the neigh
borhood where the citizens want the
school. This is in the vicinity of Grant
or City View avenue. 1t is probable
that the committee will recommend to
the Board that bids be asked for a lot in
this location.

On the Climate.

Doctor William 81. Dokeman, of this
city had in the New York Medical Jour
nal under the date of May IS, 1889, q
very carefully considered article on the
climate Of Los Angeles. 1t goes into the
temperature, sea breezes, amount of
dsmpness in the air and many other cog
nate questions, all of which are ably
handled. Such articles always do great
good in the way OF letting invalids in the
East know where the best climate in the

highway robbery.

A BOYS KNIFE.
He Uses II TOO freely In a Fight
and is Arrested.

Fred. Alshasky, boy IL years of age,
appeared before Police Judge Stanton
yesterday, charged with having made an
assault, with intent to commit murder,
upon George Shauer. On Sunday even
ing last, the defendant and several other
boys, were playing near the Methodist
Episcopal Church, on Santa Fe avenue,
when Shauer stepped up and spoke to
one of them. Alshasky went over to
him, and using an insulting epithet,
struck at him, upon which Shauer re-
turned the compliment, and fight en-
Shauer screamed out that he was cut,
and streams of blood gushed out of
wounds in his shoulder and neck. He
ran home to his fathers residence at l61
Mateo street, and his wounds, which
fortunately were not very severe, were
dressed, and on Monday afternoon his
father brought him down town to swear
to complaint against his assailant. A
warrant having been issued, Officer
Leverich arrested the boy, Alshasky
yesterday morning, on the corner of
Corder street and Santa Fe avenue, and
brought him in. The boys father ap-
peared in Court, and asked the Judge to
allow him to take him home, after his
arraignment. Upon promising to pro-
duce him in Court this afternoon for
trial, his request was granted, and the
father and son left the Courtroom to-
gether, the latter, however, being some
what reluctant, evidently anticipating a
warm reception at the hands of his
parent.

4 Poem nf PastcIir

In a letter to the Charleston NGrs ana
Co"ricr, Paris correspondent says: Per
'hnps tine mos, interesting feature Of the
work to many OF the visiting students was
the visit to the Pasicur Institute, where
we We're received by Monsieur Pastcur,
and shown through the halls and abora-
tories of the institution, which has been
erected by popular subscription and
placed under his control. The great sci
enlist is Il modest, unassumng man,
y tribe below medium height, with n
slight limp in the right leg; whether
temporary or not | dc not know. His
gray hair is short and his beard, also gray.
is short-cropped. His fncc wears Il look
of intense thought, which does not relax
even when Il smile comes 10 light it up.
AS is but just, Pastour's popularity is
great in Paris, and when he stood at the
entrance Of the institute that bears his
name, and with his favoritc grandchild,
4 tiny little girl standing by his side, wei
coined the representatives of the universe
ties of every land come to pay homage to
the greatest scientist of his time, there
broke forth from the ranks of hsty-
throatcd students cries loud and long of
Long live Pastcur." Aftcrward, mt the
Hotel de Vile reception, when he walked
through the rooms leaning on the arm of
the President OF the City Council, saw
him receive II perfect ovation, cries of
"Nivc Pasteurn' following him wherever
he went.

How to Fix n Black Eve.

Ecchymosis of the eyclds-in plai
language, "a black cyc"-is by no means
misfortune confined to bruises. Even
n slight blow from any source is liable 10
cause it, and it is an interesting question
to the man of peace and social standing
how to get rid of it in the shortest time
possible, since no excuse which he may
offer is likely to be accepted by his as
sociatcs. The laity have many remedies,
such as raw oysters, rotten apple,
scrapcd raw potatoes, and raw beef. But
none Of these is cfiicacious. Among
physicians the prescription of Mr.. Law
son has been popular. That consisted Of
the tincturc Of arnica, liquor ammonia
spirits of rosemary and camphor mixture
Later another preparation has been
strongly recommended, the assertion be-
ing made that there is nothing to COM
pare with it in preventing black eye. 1t
is made of the tincturc or strong infusion
of capsicum annurm, which is mixed
with an equal bulk of muciagc of gum
arabic, and n few drops of glycerinc is
added. This should be painted all over
the bruised surface with camel's hair
pencil and allowed to dry on, second
or third coating being applied as soon as
the first is dry. 1t is said that if this is
used ut once after the injury is inflicted,
it will invariably prevent the "blood set
Ting" and the consequent black eye

Portable Boats.

One field Of monopoly, about which

Blakcly Hall, in Oncc-a- Week, has been
very rapidly filled up OF late and the de

or who have gone after heavy game in
the extreme northwest know what it is to

hiily ground just across which is bit of
water that may lead to almost anything
that is attractive. TO the ordinary canoe

impossibility with the means usually mt

by the manufacture OF cloth, rubber and
canvass boats which may he packed up

press, carried on the shoulders of men or
packed on Il mules back with equal facil-
ity. a boat fourteen feet long may he
packed in the space occupied by an or,li-
nary trunk, and this space includes abso-
lutcly everything; for the oars and pad
dies are jointed so that they may be
shortened TO onc-quartcr their length,
and every detail of the little craft is per
feet. The boats are neither cranky nor
soggy in the water and the result of brisk
competition has been the turning out of Il
sort of craft that Stanley used 10 wish
for during his first exploration Of Africa.

The First White House Baby.

Mrs. Wilcox, n clerk in the Treasury
Department at Washington, has an in

jackson Donaldson, was an adoped son
OF President Jackson, and she is said to

Mrs. Wilcox is lady of refined tastes

who died in 1865, was Congressman

He was also member of the Confederate

Devices Of Nindon Criminals.

Some curious devices practiccd by
criminals are mentioned by the writer of
Il series Of articles in the Times Dy' Ip,iia
on ''By-pntiS of Crime in lrdia." One
curiosity which he was shown Oh Il visit
to the Jail in Calcutta was Il heavy lead
bullet, about three-quartcrs of an inch in
diameter. This was found on IN habit,lal
thief, and w.is bcin. used 40 form pouch
or bag in the throat Tor sccrcting money.
jewels, etc, in the event of his being
searched. The ball is put into the mouth,
and is allowed to slide down gently until
II reaches some part near the epirlottis.
where 1t Is held i'll position and is kept
there for about half IN hour mt time.
This operation is repeated many times
daily, and gradually II sort of pocket is
formed, the time being longer or shorter,
according to the size Of pocket required.
In some eases six months have been sutli-
cicnt, i'll others u wear, while in some cases
two years are necessary. Such pouch
as this last is capable OF holding ten ru-
pccs, about the size of ten florins. The
thief, therefore, can undergo search. and
nothing being found, he goes away with
the spoil in his throat, the power of
breathing and speech being in no way in
tcrfcrred with.
About Il score OF prisoners in The Cal
cutta Jail have such pouch formations.
In the hospital OF the prison the visitor
learned some Of the malingerng practices
OF Indian criminals. In one case he saw
youth who was perfect skeleton, with

was discovered that he had for two wears
been taking IN irritant poison, with II
view To produce diarrho,,, in order 10
shirk work and get pleasant quarters in
the hospital But he had ovcr,lonc the
part, for he had reduced himself to such
Il condition that recovery was all but i'm

tants is ii common practice among the
habitual criminals Of Calcutta Castor

4 Painted Diamond.

There is one pawnb-okcr in Washing
ton who has lost ELL faith in human hon
csty. Several months ago Il nicely dressed
IMAM entered his shop and displayed Il
pairSf diamond earrings, upon which he
desired to secure IL loan. The stones had
that peculiar blush white color So highly
priced among lovers OF diamonds, and
the pawnbrokcr readily ADVANCED him
$3.50 on them.
The stranger departed, and in due
course OF time the pawnbroker tried to
dispose of them. He exhibited the dia-
monds to Il wcll-knOwn dealer, vino said
ii they would stand The test they were
easily worth $500. The stones were re-
mo'cd from their settings and placed in
II bottle of alcohol. Then they were
shaken for about five minutes, taken out
and carefully cleaned. From the beauti-
ful BLUSH white they had become ms vel
low as the Chinese flag, and not worth
over S75.
The expert said aftcrward: "Thcsc
stones arc painted. The process is II
simple one. A small piece of indcliblc
pencil is dissolved in n tcacup of water.
The yellow diamond is then painted with
Il fine camcl's hair brush dipped in the
preparation, aud the stone is allowed TO
dry The paint will wear oil in time,
but nothing will remove il quickly but
alcohol. No reputable dealer will have
anything to do with such stones, but we
have to keep pretty sharp lookout for
Just such tricks as that one | exposed Il

The Demon Steer.

According to George Wilson, Wyo.
ming Convoy, says correspondent OF
the New orli SIN, there has roamcd on
The ranges adjacent to the Plat and the
Laramie Rivers for these many years II
mastodon wild steer whose aggressive
hess and power make him the dread of
every roundup outfit. This combativc
beef bears not brand, but no ''r,lst!cr''
dare appropriate him.
1.-The demon steer as the purnacions
brute is called, knows no fear, and with
lowered head. glistening eyes and sonor-
Gus hullow will charge upou ANYTHING
IN his course Time upon time has he
been rounded up with his comparatively
dociic companions, bat he invariably
PUSHES past The line OF riders as if no
such obstruction to his High: existed.

capture of the biz; fellow, but after he
had .sorcd two horses and scared the wits
from hall dozen riders the undertaking
was abandoned

on the peaceful solitude of The range,

II panic To which was ideal pu;c:ncss the
cla'tcr incident to The stampede of the
fabicd bull in the imaginary china shop.
There was Il grand scattering of equip
age and Il '!isorcrcd flight of the diners.
One of these latter was so inrenscd that.
contrary to all orders, inc sent six
shooter bali after the massive steer, but
the missile flew wide of its mark.
Wilson asserts that he will undertake
to prove that the '',icmtn steer" killed Il
big bear in II fair fight on the Sabyilc
three years 90, and the cowhoys will bet
all their earthly belongings that Demon
can conquer any bull in thc Territory.
Tine combat with the bear was IA terrible
affair. Bruin was forced to the dcfcn-
sivc from the start, and for II time
p'ucHily met the fearful onslaughts of
the lighting steer, iarrin:5 the great form
with blows from his paws. The activity
ot the steer was marvellous He played
around his antagonist IS the sparrcr an
noys his foe, an, ut nearly every charge
ran his long sharp horns into the blood
matted sides of the bear with the wicked
''swish'' of the effective sword thrust.
Wilson thinks the ''drmon steer" will
die Of old age. The man who attempts
his capture takes his life in his hands.

How the Baby GROWS.

In the last volume of the Education
Series" on the development of the In
tclcct," II. w. Brown has presented a
conspcctus Of the observations of Pro-
lessor Preyer on the mind of the child,
which shows chronologically the gradual
development Of the senses, intellect and
will of the growing child, and presents
i'll Il condensed form the result of great
number of careful observations. 1t is re-
corded that sensibility 10 light, touch,
temperature, smell and taste are present
on the first day Of infant life. Hearing,
therefore, is the only special sense which
is not active at this time. The child
hears by the third or fourth day Taste
and smell are senses ut first most active,
but they are not differentiated. General
organic sensations of wcll-bcing or dis
comfort are felt from the first; but pain
and pleasure, as mental states, are not
noted till at or near the second month
The first sign of speech in the shape
of uttcrancc of consonant sounds is heard
in the latter part Of the second month,
these consonants being generally "m, :"
ST." 'g' or st." All the movements
of the eyes become coordinate by tho
fourth month, and by this time the child
begins to have the ''feeling of self
that is, he looks ut his own hands and
looks at himself in the mirror. The
study OF the child's mind during the first
year shows conclusivcly that ideas de-
velop and reasoning processes occur be-
fore there is any knowledge of words or
of language; though it may be assumed
that the child thinks in symbols, visual
or auditory, which are clumsy euuiva.
Tents for words. by the end of the year
the child begins to express itself by
sounds-that is, speech begins. The
development of this speech capacity is,
according to Prcyer, in accordance with
the development of the intellectual
powers. BY the end of the second year
the child's power Of speech specifically
