Our Weak and wicked Court OF
Pardons.


Pardons-
The Court of Pardons OF this State
is fast growing to be its very worst
institution. 1t is at once m~ischievous
and contemplate. For some years
back it has never held a meeting with
out causing scandal.
Its action seems to be animated by
flabby good nature and mawkish SEN
timentality without the remotest ref
erence to justice or public policy.
The special benehciaries Of its Glenn
ency appear to be cold-blooded muir
derers, thieves with a social pull and
good looking harlots.
One Of the worst offences against
good morals that has recently been
committed in this country is the par
don OF that abominable adventures,
Eva Mann, alias Eva Hamilton A
woman who has committed pretty
nearly every crime known to
law and morals, an associate
of criminals throughout her life
u slave of whiskey, of opium and OF
lust, the wrecker of lives and the
despoiler of regulations, she is now
turned loose on the public with the
openly avowed purpose OF enabling
her to pursue her i%mpudent contest
for he wages of her infamy. In re-
leasing her, too, the Court casts a
reflection on the memory of her I'M
fortunate victim, who driven from
the haunts of civilization by the
shame which she brought upon him,
found a lonely death upon the track
less prairie.
We believe there are indictments
for conspiracy pending against her
In New York. We hope the authori-
ties of that State win show a sense of
propriety which our own lack We
hope they will put her on trial at
once and send her to Blackwelrs
Island for a couple of years for real
punishment.
II the p%ardoning power were in the
hands OF one man IN TINS stare, tnls
adventures would never have been
released. No living man would dare
to take the responsibility for such a
crime against good morals But
among a dozen or so, responsibility is
SO divided that everyone thinks he is
hidden behind his colleagues when he
consents to some disreputable action

stantial reform in the methods of the

gard the mounds as built for their own
special protection and benefit, and the
young trees were girdled and the in
tended orchard destroyed. Compact,
smoothly-beaten mounds would have
saved the trees.
The same treatment may be applied
to nursery trees received from a dis
lance and heeled-in for spring setting.
AS the work is often done, the heeling-
in places the trees in great
danger, and. we have sometimes
seen them girdled Gy the dozen and
upwards, by not filling in the
earth compaetly in all the crevices, and
in not encircling the place which re-
ceived them with smooth sloping earth,
up which the mice refuse to ascend.
Fig. represents such trees properly
taken care of and free from the danger
of mice; the mound of earth which sur
rounds the trees should be smooth and
compact on all sides.
Young orchards several years old and
firmly rooted and stiffened are some
times in danger of being girdled by mice
If standing near grass boundaries, or if
grass or weeds have been allowed par
tial possession. A neighbor has set out
a thousand pear trees, and they had
already begun vigorous growth. A
three-inch snow in March enabled the
mice to girdle the whole of them, which
he assured us he could have prevented
by earth mounds. He saved them all,
however, by bridging the girdled por-
tions with connecting twigs.

ATrettY Lamp-Shade.

A very pretty lamp-shade may be
made OF satin or taffeta ribbon, with
white cotton lace or embroidered net.
This lace is found in cream or white
only, but at trifing expense may be
dyed scarlet yellow, pale-green or any
artistic color desirable. After dyeing
it, match it in the ribbon, as dyers are
not always certain OF exactly the shade
they may hit in their work. Make the
lamp-shade three times the circum-
ference of the frame on which it is to
rest, put alternately of rows OF lace or
ribbon. When it is of sufficient width
shirr il with four or five rows of gather
ing into shape at the top leaving a
little standing rufile about an inch wide
of double-satIn ribbon. The shirring
should all be in the satin on the ribbon.

shades are so ventilated at the top tina
the heat of Rochester does not scorch

cate silk.-N. Y. Tribune.

LITERATURE OF ROSES.
Almost Every Age Has raid Tribute T.
Their Beauty.

Almost Every Age Has faid Tribute to
Their Beauty.
The literature of almost every nation
and every age pays tribute to the rose.
No sovereign has held wider or more
undisputed sway than has that queen of
flowers. From north to south and from
east to west, wherever warmth, sun
shine and cool breezes mingle, she
chooses her own domain.
The Caucasus mountains contribute
the cabbage rose so intimately asso-
ciated with memories of many pleas
ant New England homestead. From the
south of France the liquid fragrance of
the same rose comes to US in the form
of rose water
In some parts Of India large fields are
in one rose garden. The flowers are
gathered in the early morning, all
sparkling and shimmering with dew.
We receive the distilled essence of their
beauty in the precious altar of roses
one article of merchandise surely we'll
fitted TO come from that land of dreamy
languor.
In Syria, Egypt and Palestine the
wild rose of Jericho does all in its
power to make the desert bloom. But
Persia is especially the land of the
rose. A day is set apart and a festival
held in its honor. The love given to it
elsew here is lukewarm compared to the
alteration there.
The wild rose of our own land makes
beauty by the gray roadsides, gen
erouslY giving out its fragrance,
but with sharp thorns repeling
alike friend and enemy. Its pam
pered sisters of the conservatory
show their luxuriant graces with more
placid main. There is not the resist
ance taught by poverty. Their des-
tiny is to minister TO the rich. They
are loves Offering. They decorate the
bath room, preside over tie marriage
ceremony, and tighten the shadows in
the somber environments of death.
Thorns-they have no need of them,
The rose is as old as literature. In
the mythology of Greece and Rome it's
lc-ends find place. Chaplets of roses
a,.orned its deities. In the wonderful
marriage song of the Hebrew King, the
bride was likened 10 the rose of Sharon.
Among the ancient Romans the rose
was the emblem Of silence. Wreaths
were hung in the apartments, thus in
timating that whatever transpired was
not to be told in public. The phrase
sub rosa" told under the rose, perpet-
yates the idea to-day.-N. Y. Star.

WOOL FROM IRON.

A Peculiar Substance which Comes from
the Great Furnaces OF Pittsburgh.
Strange as it may seem, there comes
from the iron furnaces of Pittsburgh
substance SD white and light, so fluffy
and flaky. that it looks and feels like
picked wool. 1t is called Stag WOOL"
and a correspondent offers to tell us
how it is made and for what it is used.
Stag is a waste substance which issues
from iron melting furnaces. 1t is formed
by the separation of the earthly matter
from the ore, and looks like coarse,
dark glass if allowed to cool as it comes
from the furnaces. Formerly it was
thrown away as valueless but since a
process for converting it into wool has
been discovered, it is utilized for many
purposes.
This mineral wool if formed by caus-
ing a jet of steam to play upon the
stream of molten Stag as it issues from
the furnace This has the effect of
breaking up the molted mass into
countless small. bead-like PARTICLES, so
light that they fly in every direction.
Each of these tiny beads carries behind
it delicate thread of finely-spun Stag,
its tail.
To collect these threads and to sep
arate the fbers from the beads or
heavier portions Of the Stag, the steam
Jet is arranged at the mouth of an open
cylinder of sheet-iron, in which a strong
air current is induced by means of ad-
ditional jets of steam.
The tube or shaft is furnished with
shield or striking plate which detains
the heavier PARTICLES, while the lighter
Stag wool is carried by the draft into
large chamber resembling a gigantic
meat-safe, its walls being formed of
wire netting with about sixteen meshes
to the square inch. Here the steam
condenses and escapes, leaving the Stag
wool, which now has the appearance OF
snowfakes, deposited on the floor OF
the chamber or clinging to it's wire
walls.
The filaments or flakes are then
broken up and felted together, when
they look and feel like wool
This mineral wool is extremely light
and absolutely fireproof-propertie
which make it useful for large
variety of purposes. 1t is mar
velous non-conductor of heat and
sound, which renders it valua-
bic for packing between the floors of
rooms and in the spaces between par
titions. 1t serves as an excellent COW
ering for boilers, heating pipes and such
things.
1t can be woven into cloth. and as such
makes fire-proof curtains for theaters
and it might not be a bad plan to make
clothes out of 1t for children who per-
sist in playing near the fire. 1t is SC
porous that it will absorb and retain
large quantities of water, like sponge,
and it is also an antiseptic, that is,
substance which resists or corrects
putrefaction. 1t is useful, therefore, as
dressing for wounds, as well as for
other medical purposes Youths Com
panion.
