On the 1st of December there were over 1900 fires gong, but of late a large num- Der have had to be shut off on account of the lack of supply, and others have paid their bills and ordered the mixers taken out, expecting to go back to coal or. wood. The Ono Thrasher Company, which was induced to go there from Mansfield, expecting free gas, has already expended about S3O,- 900. and being about ready to cem- mence business find that they will be left out in the cold.

How Did Art Begin in Greece?


 How often must the student of fine art wish he had the same sort of knowl- edge about its earlier growth in Greece he actually possesses in the case of the Italian. Given any development at all in these matters, there must have been phases of art which, if immature, were also veritable expressions of power, intermediate discoveries of beauty, such as are by no means a mere anticipation of service only as explaining historically larger subse- queut achievements, but of permanent attractiveness in themselves, being often, indeed, the true maturity of cer- tain amiable artistic qualities. And in regard to Greek art at its best, the Parthenon, no less than to medieval art at its best, the Sistine chapel, the more instructive light would be de- rived rather from what precedes than what follows its central success, from the determination to apprehend the fulfllment of past adventures rather than the eve of decline in this critical moment, which partakes of both.
 Of such earl y promise, early achieve ment, we have in the case of Greek art little to compare with what is ex- tant of the youth of the arts in Italy; while Overbeck's careful gleanings of its history form indeed sorry relic as compared with the intimations of Vasari regarding the Renaissance. Fired by certain. fragments of its earlier days, of beauty, in truth, ab- solute, and vainly longing for more, the student of Greek sculpture in- dulges an ideal of youthful energy therein, yet withal of youthful self restraint, and again, as with survivals of old religion, its privileged home, he fancies, must have been in those venerable Attic townships, as to a large extent it passed away with them. -MacmilIau's Magazine,

The Niagara River Hydraulic Tun- mel, Power, and Sewer Company will now, 1t is stated, carry out its plan for utilizing the fall of water at Niagara, by building it's main tunnel and con- nectlng cross tunnels with wheel pits. The estimate of cost IS $2,250,000. It is estimated that if thirty mills of 800 horse power each are built, it would pay five per cent. upon capital of $3,000,000, while if all privileges were taken the result would pay the inter- est upon large block of bonds and a handsome return upon the stock.

THE APACHE INDIANS.
Gen Towards Letter 10 Chairman Perkins
 and tiie Latters Reply.

A Washington dispatch to the s. F.
 Chronicle says: A few days ago Gen eral Howard addressed a letter 10 Chairman Perkins of the House Com
 mittee on Indian Affairs in relation 10
 the matter of the proposed transfer of
 the Apache Indians from Mount Yer
 non Barracks to Fort Sill, which the committee Is considering. General
 Howard expressed himself to the effect
 that he thought that inasmuch as
 General Miles had had his say before
 the committee, 1t should give General Crook an opportunity to be heard.
 General Howard also expressed the opinion that the Indians should be re-
 moved from their present location, either to Fort Sill or to the Cherokee lands Tn North Carolina, but his judg- ment was that Fort Slli was the bet ter place.
 Chairman Perkins made the follow ing reply: q am in receipt of your letter, and in reply I have to inform you that it Is not the desire of the Committee or Indian Affairs to be- come party in any way to the con- troyersy or feeling that seems to exist between the friends of General Crook and the friends of General Miles. Some things have already been said before our committee that had no rel evancy to the question that we desired to consider, and so far as the commit tee is concerned will have no influence with us in our deliberations.
 I've have General Crooks recom- mendatiens, and also have been ad- dressed by members of Lis staff, and by those who believe with him that the Apaches can be safely confined on the Fort Sill reservation, and we heard General Miles and the delegates and representatives from New Mexico and Arizona, who think it would be unwlSe to remove the Indians to h. dian Territory.
 "The desire of the committee is one to do what IS fair and right in the matter, and what seems to be for the good of these Indians, and at the same time fair to the people of the Territo- ries. 1 believe that much of the fear that is entertained by the settlers in New Mexico and Arizona Is an eXag- gerated fear; but while considering | the good of the Indians think 1t Is but right to take into consideration the wishes and interests Of the thous- ands of settlers who are living in these Territories, who have their homes there and who assert that since the removal of the Apaches they enjoyed their first security as settlers in these Territories.
 "Whether their fears are exagger- ated and they are excited or not, think it is the duty of the committee to realize that they exist; and under such circumstances it becomes quite for us to determine wheth- er, for the good of these Indians, we will, to some extent at least, sacrifice the comfort and prosperity of the peo- pie of Arizona and New Mexico. Old Mexico is also opposed to ther re- noval to the Fort Sill Reservation, but the committee has not yet deter mined what action to take in the mat -ar "

Rifle bullets are now photographed in their course by means of the cleo tric spark. The camera is taken into a dark room, which the bullet is caused to traverse. As 1t passes the camera it is made to interrupt an electric cir cut and produce spark, which illu- inmates it for an instant and enables the impression to be taken. The wave of condensation in the air before the bullet and the rarefactlon behind it are visible in the photograph, and can be studied by experts, thus enabling the form of ball or rife winch minimi- zes the resistance of the air to be se- lected.

WHO?

I've never seen her, yet. know,
Her hair has caught the sunbe,,In's GLOW:
I've never looked into her eyes,
1et they are blue US summer skies.
There's magic in her dimpled chin.
Ana In her pure transparent skin,
I've never gazed upon her face,
And. yet. know It lacks no grace. -
Her teeth are white as angels wings
There lives not any bird that sings
whose note Is sweeter than her laugh:
Nor does the Wild bee ever quaff
Such nectar as the honey-dew
That lies upon the crimson hue
OF lips as perfect as the sun
In all his course has shone upon.
Vt have never seen the smile
That. ON her rcd lips. can beguile
MY heart unto her dainty feet,
And bind 1t in Loves letters sweet.
Nor had we e'er the fond delight
OF strolling meath pale Luna's light;
Nor have ever felt the bliss
That thrills In her electric kiss.
I've never held her hand in mine;
I've never clasped her form divine;
I've never whispered in her ears
NY tale OF love-my hopes and fears,
And. yet. know il on my breast
Her head could for a moment rest
Earth would not hold q Joy than mine
More rapturous-morel like divine.
She lives not in the fertile vale.
Nor mid the mountains snow and hail:
Nor by the rivers flowing tide;
Nor near the desert, bare and wide.
She lives not mid the city's whirl;
Nor does the country hold my pearl;
She brightens not the solitude
That fingers in the gloomsome wood;
Nor does the oceans thunder beat
In loud pulsations at her feet
Her little feet, white as the swan,
And lighter than a birds at dawn.
Who is the maid to whom Is gwen
To hold my soul 'twixt earth and Heaven
Where ia this maiden? Do not starti
She dwells In Dreamland and my heart.

Deafness Cant Be Cured

by local applications, as they can not reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inflamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out

Sir Nicholas Kemeys, Bart, Of Cefn
Mably, was accounted one of the strong
est men of his day, and tradition of
him, corroborative of his great strength,
still exists in Glamorganshire. The
story runs that one summer evening as
Sir Nicholas was walking in the deer
park at Cefn Mably with some guests,
an athletic man leading an ass, upon
which was his wallet, approached, and
respectfully saluting the company, said
he humbly supposed that the huge gem
tleman he had the honor of addressing
was the strong. Sir Nicholas Kemeys.
Tho stranger, being answered in the
Affirmative, declared himself q noted
Cornish wrestler, who had meyer been
thrown, and having heard from a Welsh
man, whom he had met at Bristol. of
tho great bodily strength OF Sir Nicho-
las, had made this journey to see his
honor, adding that, If it were not ask.
ing too great q favor, he trusted Sir
Nicholas would condescend to TRY a

to first go to the buttery and get refresh

The Cornishman declined with many
thanks, saying he was quite fresh; so
they fell to wrestling, and in q moment
the Cornishman was thrown upon his
back. The Baronet assisted him to
rise, asking him If he was now satisfied
Of his strength. The reply was: mot
unless you throw me over the park
WALL" The tale continues to say that
this request was readily complied with,
when the unsatistied wrestler entreated
that Sir Nicholas would throw his ass
after him over the wall, which was &C.
cordingly done!
A place is still shown in the ancient
park wall as the scene Of the exploit.
