Carrara Marble.

"You can bid good-by to Carrara marble, I"
says house decorator. 1T was all very
well up to few years since, but the devel-
opments of our own land and of Mexico
have driven it to the wall. Its most for
midable foe is the Mexican onyx This, al
though it looks soft and creamy, is as hard
as steel, and when once polished is almost
indestructible. At present it is used in
small quantities, and is chiefly known from
its white and yellow varieties 1t obtains
in twenty other styles, which are equally
beautiful
More remarkable than the onyx is the
petrified wood of Arizona and New Mexico.
1t comes in all colors, and is superior in
beauty and elegance to most of the moss
agates and wood agates used in jewelry.
1t takes magnificent polish and is not so
costly but that it can be used for mantel-
pieces, bar fronts, washstands, ash receiv-
ers, table tops and bureau slabs. The sup
ply is inexhaustible, and when the rail-
roads of the southwest are extended viii
suffice for every possible demand.-Wash-

Gasllrht a Health Agent.

Gas jets may be made important auxiharies
to ventilation. Inserted in the bottom Of air
shafts, they establish active currents, which
withdraw the vitiated air. A cubic foot OF
Illuminating gas can be utilized so as to cause
the discharge of 1000 cubic feet Of air, and a
common gas burner will consume nearly
three feet of gas an hour, 50 that the quantity
of contaminated air that would be extracted
from an apartment during that time would
be 5000 feet By suitable contrivances, gas
lights, the effects of which are but too often
pernicious, may not only become self venti-
lating, but may be also made to contribute
materially to the publication of the air Of in
habited apartments. Orleans Picayune.

The Mckinley tarii bill has .iIenced ono of the most effective guns ot the opposition, namely, the demand for free raw maternal. It has been claimed that If Inc manufacturer had free raw material he could noa only supply the home market, but could compete with the foreign producer in his own and other foreign markets. Under ths present law tho manufacturer can get all the raw materials ho wants for this purpose on payment of only 10 per cent. Of the present rates of duty. The Mckinley bill, however, proposes to increase the drawback from 90 to 99 per cent, so that practically all raw materials desired to be manufactured for export may be received free of duty.

NO SILVER nEG,s.Ar.oS pRonasLg.

The following dispatch 10 the Globe.
 Democrat from Washington, defining the position of President Harrison on
 the silver qusstioH, gives llttle hope
 of any Legislation for increased com age, at the present session. The dis patch reads The Administration IS taking a more active part ID silver Legislation than appears on the surface.
 A week ago the President gave the Republicans te understand that he would surely veto a freq coinage bill. He has since imposed another condi. ton, which so eonfuses the whole slt
 uatien that no one can tell what will come This additional declaration of tho President is that he will veto any silver bill winch owes its passage 10 more Democratic than Republican votes. In other words, the President insists that the silver le&lslation shall Do party measure and that what ever bill becomes law shall owe its enactment te the Republican party. Thi, now condition which the Presi. dant imposes is much harder to meet than hls first ultimatum against free coinage. It enables certain Republi- can Senators like Edmuuds and Sher- man, who are against any radical sil- yer legislation, to delay acton, West evn Senators ara much discouraged over ths latter declaration of tho President. One of them said tonight:
 "'l am vary much afraid that the debate will drag on, and that no silver bull will reach the President this seS. sion. Such a result would he most unfortunate for our section of tho country. But no one can tell what tue anti-:ilver Senators mean to do. They talk, and talk, and say nothing positive. l don't know why the Ad. ministraton should insist on making silver a party question.
