POINTS FOR COFFEE LOVERS.

Tho savory Decoctiou Lesseus the AcidIfy
of the Stomach Juices.
From the New York Herald.1
Caffeine. the active principle of coffee, at
the dose of twenty centigrammes, has the
property of lessening the acidity OF the con-
tents of the stomach and of restricting the
production of peptones. which is one stage
of the transformations that albuminous sub
lated. -'-
Consequently, coffee after meals should
be forbidden in cases of dyspepsia that are
caused by lack OF acid. On the other hand
coffee should be prescribed when hydrochlo-
ric acid is produced in too large quantities,
which condition forms a second and COM
mon variety of dyspepsia.

Philadelphia Press.1
Philadelphia has within her limits prob
ably from 20 to 25 women who are worth
million or more. She has twice that many
women who are worth more than half mill
ion dollars, and there are hundreds of
women in the city whose possessions range
from $40, 900 to S1OO, 900 each.
The wealtbiest woman inPhiladelphia is
believed to be Mrs. Anna NJ. Powers, widow
of Thomas 81. Powers, who was during his
lifetime the head of the firm of Powers &
Weightman. Mrs. Powers possessions are
variously estimated from So, 00O, 900 to S12,-
00O, 900, and the latter sum is believed to be
nearer her actual wealth than the former.
She lives very quietly in handsome man.

GIVE THE BABIES WATER.
Often the Little Folks Get Choked Up on

Often the Little Folks Get Choked Up on
Too Much Solid Food.
New York Ledger.1
A distinguished children's doctor be-
lieves, from his practice, that infants gen.
orally, whether brought up at the breast or
artifcially. are not supplied with sufficient
water, the fluid portion of their food being
quickly taken up and leaving the solid too
thick to be easily digested. In warm. dry
weather, healthy babies will take water
every hour with advantage, and their fire.
quent frettulness and rise of temperature
are often directly due to their not having 1t.
A free supply of water and restricting
the frequency of nursing have been found at
the nursery to be a most effectual check in
cases Of lncipient fever, diminished rate
of mortality and marked reduction in the
number of gastric and intestinal complaints
being attributed to this cause. In teeth
cutting, water soothes the gums, and fre-
quently stops the fretting and restlessness
universal in children at this period.

The Record of the Present House Has Never
Been EqinIed.
The memorial exercises in honor Of
the late Samuel S. Cox recalls the fact that
there have been nine deaths in the present
House. This is the largest number on
record. Congressman O'Neill says in the
Philadelphia Times: ''The most striking
thing, too, is the prominence of the men,
Randall, Cox and Kelley-three men the
like of whom no Congress has ever had
in il.
They knew so we'll the work Of Congress,
and their death is a serious loss. Then the
others that died were nearly all men who
had attracted the country to them BY their
abilities. OF the others that have died,
Townshend, of Illinois, was very active
member, and from his entrance into Con-
gress took very prominent part. Another
was Laird, of Nebraska. He was O yalua-
BILE man on the Republican side of the
House. Then there were Wilbur, Of New
York; Gay. of Louisiana, and Nutting, ef

60 FASTER Up STREAM.
A Paradox ns to Mississippi Steamboats,
That Is Easily Explained.

A Paradox ns to Mississippi Steamboats,
That Is Easily Explained.
The question is sometimes asked: "Can a
steamboat run faster going up stream than
going down stream?" All long-trade boats
in the Mississippi, below st. Louis, and in
the Ohio and Mississippi rivers, below Gin
cinnati, consume more time In making their
downward trips than they do in their up
stream voyages. The Anchor line boats
consume seven days in going from st. Louis
to New Orleans, and six days in returning.
The boats from st. Louis to Natchez make
the trip in six days and return in five.
The reason simply is that they carry
larger loads going down than they do COM
ing up. and they stop to unload goods at
many places going down, whereas they do
not have to stop more than once in 20 trips
on their way up. A boat atalways runs faster
going down stream than going up, as she Is
favored by the current. There is differ
ence of from 21l to 81 miles an hour in
favor of the downstream boats.

THE EFFECT OF TOBACCO.

Smoking il n Good Thing in Certain Condi.
lions of the Stomach.
New York Herald.1
Nicotine, the slkaloid of tobacco, given
at the very small dose of one milligramme,
stimulates the secretion OF the gastric juice;
but if the dose be increased or repeated the
sensitiveness OF the stomach (aLd thereby its
secretory ,unction) becomes. deadened in the
majority of cases.
Consequently it will be found useful to
smoke after meals when a persons gastric
Juice is not sufficiently acid; but this smok-
ing should not be carried very far, or else
the sensitiveness of the stomach will be d.
minished. When, on the other hand, the
acid secretions OF the stomach are increased,
all smoking should be forbidden.

TIE Americaa Economist copies the following from the London Financial Times:
 The measure which has all but killed the pearl button industry in Austria has suddenly resuscitated it in the United States. Some years ago several thousand workmen were employed in the twenty-one pearl button manufactures of Newark, N. J. Congress lowered the duty on foreign buttons, and the result was that three fourths of the factories had to close, while wages were reduced in those that remained open. Protected by an increased duty, averag ing nearly 100 per cent the American pearl but ton makers can now get to work again, and can afford to pay wages of from $l5 to S25 per week to the operatives. Meanwhile, many of their Austrian rivals have to face the alterna- tive either of retiring from the. business or shifting the scene of their operations to the United States.
 Here we have direct statement that great many thousands of American workingmen and women who were thrown out of employment because the wretched men and women in Austria would make buttons at price which no mechanic in America would accept, and that the restoration of the tariff on pearl buttons will restore to work these thousands of men and women at living wages. If a great many thousands can be employed that way, there will be more market at home for the product of the soil, there will be less competition among farmers, one more new industry will be created, and the necessity for ex- porting the raw products of the soil will be that much reduced. Then what these thousands of people eat they will buy in this country the money they pay for their food will gravitate back among the people, and our Nation, instead of Aus tria, will be the gainer, and the Me Kinley bill will vindicate itself when given fair chance.

TIE Fl Paso Herald advises the people of that bustling burg to obtain tine ser vices of Professor Heerdegan, the Cincin- natl water locater, to hunt them up an underground stream of water which they feel convinced is in the immediate neighborhood of the city. Heerdegan may have wonderful powers for locating subterranean water, it's depth, velocity, etc., but if he has he must have been walking in his sleep while here. He guaranteed certain immense flow of water for the Yuma Copper Mining Company at the depth of seventy feet, but, after making several holes several hundred feet deep in the neighborhood designated, the company has been com pelled to make arrangements for a nine-mile pipe line from mountain springs. The Professor" had not, it is affirmed, located even damp ground.

TIE Tucson Cdizen, speaking of the arrest of Hon. Thomas Hughes, such ar
 rest being much in the nature of per secution, well says: "IIon. Thomas Hughes was arrested a few days since on the charge of illegal voting at the last city election. The complaint was sworn out by Mir. Charles Nj. Strauss, who charged that Mir. Hughes was not res ident of Tucson, and consequently not entitled to vote at the municipal cleo tion. It so happens that MT. Hughes rerentlv purchased the Judd property sided there with his family, but that does not, in our opinion, make him less a citizen of Tucson, nor disfranchse him as voter. MT. Hughes has been resi- dent of this Territory for twenty years, the last ten years of which has been spent in this city. He is one of the heaviest taxpayers within the corporate limits of the town, and to attempt to deny him the right of voting, or have him arrested and prosecuted because he did vote, smacks too much of political shystering to find favor in any court of justice. The case was heard before a jury in Judge Meyers Court two days since, and the result was as anticipated, an immediate acquittal. The question that comes to the fore is what good pur- pose did MT. Strauss hope to serve in having MT. Hughes arrested? Mir. Strauss himself is not taxpayer, con- sequently he had no moneyed interests jeapardized by Mir. Hughes vote, and so far as known he has not been appointed moral guardian of the city, but we do know that this highly moral show cost the county a snug little sum of money."

TIE latest movement appears to be a
 general one to add regiments of Indians
 to the regular army, for the especial
 purpose of fighting the battles of the
 whites against any hostile aborigines
 that may conclude in the future to take
 the warpath. The scheme would per
 haps be good one, under certain lim-
 itations. It is but natural that Indians,
 knowing the ways of their hostile
 brethren, and being less dependent
 upon baggage trains or other impedi-
 menta, would be much more likely to overtake the fleeing marauders than
 would white troops, and once overtaken,
 the capture of the hostles would be matter solely dependent upon the num-
 bers of the respective opposing forces. Travelling through the mountains, in- sensible to fatigue, living upon the corn that he carries in pouch at the girdle, would not be deemed serious hardships to an Indian, while such work would kill soldier fresh from the barracks. The natural inclinations of all Indians are for such work, as well, and they would enter into it with enthusiasm.
 Yet Tn selecting such scouts or soldiers, care should be taken to secure them only from tribes of known loyalty, preferably on bad terms with the foes they are de- signed to pursue. The Government can find in Arizona abundant evidence to the effect that Indians cannot be trusted to oppose their tribesmen. In this Territory the practice of arming Apache scouts has worked to the very manifest disadvantage of the army and furnished the munitions whereby many an Indian raid was successfully exc cuted. Many of the most blood-thirsty deeds of Apache warfare have been con- mitted by those who were once scouts. Naturally, then, with the experience had, such tribe should not be applied to for quota of scouts or soldiers. There are tribes in Arizona, however, hereditary enemies of the Apaches, who would wish for nothing better than to act as soldiers against them. The Pimas and Maricopas have never been known to turn against the whites and from time immemorial have successfully fought the mountain Indians. They have several times before asked that the general Government enlist scouts from their tribe and, surely under the new order of affairs, their request should be granted.
