General Robert Chapman's Views oi
the East.

General Robert Chapman's Views of
the East.
General Robert H. Chapman, of this
city, graduated from Yale college in 1850
with seventy-seven other young men.
There are forty-seven of his old chums
still alive, and June oath, at New Haven,
twenty-three of them celebrated the
fortieth anniversary of their graduation.
General Chapman returned to his
home in this city few days ago, having
made an extensive journey through the
east, besides joining the young old boys
of his class at New Haven. In CONVEX
sation Yesterday with HERALD reporter
the general said: "The most decided
change l noticed among the people of
the east and north was the almost entire
disappearance of the sectional feeling
which was caused by the late unpleas-
antness.' l found nothing of it," he
said, "and the people l met told me
that it existed no longer, except when
occasionally loud-mouthed politician
frothed and howled."
General Chapman found the weather
very oppressive and missed the dry
climate and cool breezes of semi-tropic
California. He returned a month sooner
than he. intended to, simply on account
of the miserable weather. the best
climate he felt was in California, and he
says the prettiest scenery he saw was in
the same state on the road to Portland
through the Sacramento valley, around
and overshadowed by old Shasta.
He was disappointed in one particu-
lar, he could not tell the people any
thing about California. This country
has been so we'll advertized, and people
have been SO eager to learn of it, that
he found most OF the easterners knew as
much of the state, if not more, than he
did himself.

THE N. G. c.
To Decide Whether 1t Shall Go Into
Camp.
break camp

Camp.
The first brigade officers are requested
by Gen. E. p. Johnson to meet at his
headquarters in the Broadway armory
on Saturday evening. The question as
to whether the Seventh regiment will go
into camp or not this season will be con-
sidered. 1t is not considered probable
that the boys will have any outing this
year, as regimental matters are in an
unsettled condition, owing to Governor
Waterman not having acted yet on Col.
RusselPs appeal from the decision of the
court-martial which dismissed him from
the service. While there is uncertainty
about this matter, the officers do not
feel like undertaking any extensive
work.
Captain and Adjutant A. M. Green, of
the Seventh regiment, rendered his
resignation recently, and it has been ac-
cepted. He took this action on account
of increasing business interests.

PRACTICAL TESTS.
An Astonishing Oner-Some Of the Re-
plies.

The San Francisco papers of recent date con-
tained the following offer:-
GAS an evidence of the ability Of joys vege-
table Sarsaparilla to prevent sick headaches, We
will give to the first twelve responsible persons
who will apply at our Office bottle free If they
will agree that after their headaches have been
cured that they will admit the fact over their
signatures"
This offer so startlingly asserted the efficiency
of the remedy that many accepted, and the let
ters of the parties, nearly all of whom responded
are probably the most convincing attestations
that any remedy ever received. The following
is . sample of those received:-
have been subject to bilious headaches and
constipation for several years past; in fact, have
been compelled to take a physic every other
night or else would have headache and dull,
mean feeling. have taken that bottle of joys
Vegetable Sarsaparilla and have derived great
benefit from it, and intend continuing it. After
my own experience can heartily advise those
troubled with biliousness and constipation to
try It. Yours,

Keeping House With Cockroaches,

Beetles, water bugs, etc., is not pleasant. The
most effective and permanent remedy is-for
two or three nights-to sprinkle ROUGH ON
RATS dry powder unmixed, in, about and
but thinly over the sink. First thing in the
morning wash it all away down the drain pipe,
whom all the insects from garret to cellar will
disappear The secret of this is in the fact that
wherever the bugs or insects may be during the
day, they must go to the sinks for water during
the night They can't stand ROUGH ON RATS
in their water. This is the quickest most eff
fective and satisfactory remedy ROUGH ON
RATS being poison, it should be used in this
way only at night and washed away early in

1t is thought that the rate this year
will be somewhere in the neighborhood
OF 81 .25 on each 500. The council will
probably fix the rate for ordinary ex-
penditures at 81, as allowed by the char
ter. Outside of this either five or six
cents will be allowed for the parks under
the state law, and the balance, twenty
cents, will go towards the funds for the
payment of interest and installments on
the bonds sold. The city funds are
already short some. $4,000, and before
collections are made another $1,000
will be added to the minus side of the
balance sheet. The city auditor is busy
in preparing his estimate for the tax
levy as required by the charter, and the
matter will probably be discussed in
council next month.

The Joyous News Was Life to Him.

The Russian sculptor and Socialist,
Kamenski, who, for sixteen years, has
found refuge in the United States, at
tracts attention by the depth of scar
over his right eyebrow. The scar is not
connected with some romantic tale of
Siberian horror. II is the result of a
kick of Kansas mule. No little sur
prise was created at the time that it did
not cause instant death. 1t came, how
ever, very near doing SO. The sculptor
was taken up unconscious, and when his
reason returned he was told he was about
to die. In semi-comatose state he made
his last will and awaited the end. Mean
while over the wires flashed the hews of
the assassination of Csar Alexander. A
friend who knew Kamenski's principles
vowed he should not die without hearing
the news, and, evading the doctor in at
tendance, she cautiously stole to his bed
side and whispered in his ear the fate of
the autocrat. The fast chilling blood
became warmed and pulsed gleefully
through the feeble heart, life was re-
newed and Kamenski recovered. - The

Natures Hotel.

The most remarkable hotel In the
world is in California, on the road be-
tween Santa Cruz and San Jose. 1t is a
well-known fact that California possesses
the largest trees in the world, and a
shrewd hotel builder has conceived the
idea of using group of these mammoths,
thus saving himself the cost Of building
or rent. The hollow trunk of one tree,
whose circumference is about twenty
two yards, is arranged as reception
room, and the surrounding garden,
sheltered by thick roof of spreading
branches, serves as dining-room and
smoking-room. A number of other
smaller hollow trunks make comfortable
bedrooms, furnished in the most ap
proved style, and some trees at little
distance are occupied by the hotel staff,

The Dangerous "Sea- -Poose. !"

A writer in ScriJner, on "Surf and
Surf Bathing" says: 1t may be we'll to
speak here of another phenomenon not
infrequently observed. l do not recall
ever seeing the name by which it is
known in print, and as the word is ig-
nored by Webster, 1 shall invent my own
spelling and write it ''sea -poose." This
term is loosely used on different parts of
the coast, but the true significance of it
is briefly this: There will sometimes
come at every bathing-ground, days when
the ocean seems to lose its head and to
act in very capricious way. On such
occasions it often happens that the beach
is cut away at some one point, presuma-
bly, where the sand happens to be softer
and less capable of resisting the action of
the water. There will then be found a
little bay indenting the shore, perhaps
ten feet, perhaps ten yards. The waves
rolling into such cove are detected
somewhat, and ''set" together at its
head, so that two wings of a breaker, so
to speak, meet, and, running straight
out from the point of junction, form a
sort of double "under-tow," which will,
if the conditions that cause it continue,
cut out along its course depression or
trench of varying depth and length. It
can be readily understood that such a
trench tends to strengthen the current
that causes it, and these two factors, act
ing and reacting upon each other, occa-
sion what might be called an artificial
''under- tow" which is sometimes strong
enough to carry an unwary bather some
distance out, in a fashion that will cause
him either to be glad he is, or to wish
he were, within the rectangle of the life
lines.
have sometimes heard old surfmen
SPEAK of what they call "false poose, "
but have never been able to find out
just what was meant by the expression,
much less its causes and character. I shall
therefore leave the question for those who

Modest Salaries in the Old Days.

There was not postoffice in the
United States in 1889 that paid better
salary than $4,000. That was the salary
at New York, and there were twenty
other offices with the same salary.
Pennsylvania had four of them. James
Page was Postmaster at Philadelphia,
James Peacock at Harrisburg, Robert
Cochran at Erie and Robert Lynch at
Pittsburg, all drawing $4,000. A
notable thing in connection with the
postofiice at Lancaster, which then paid
$14S3, was the fact that Mary Dickson
was postmistress, almost the only instance
of the blue book of 1889 of woman
holding profitable Government office.
