Sweet odors are of three kindS-the
floral, the aromal and the balsamic-
The first group includes all those de-
rived from sweet-smelling flowers and
plants; the second, those derived from
musks and resins; the third, those de-
rived from leaves and gums The otto,
or essential oil of perfumes, is obtained
In three several ways-distilliation
maceration and enflourage.
In distillation, the odorous principle
is purified and separated from the
grosser parts by evaporation and subse-
quent condensation. An essential oil,
or otto, thus procured from orange flow
ers bears in commerce to this day the
name OF Neroll, named after and dat
ing from time of the Emperor Nero.
In maceration, the primary substance
is softened by pounding, and then dis
solved by sleeping in liquid, usually al
coholic.
In enflourage, the doors are extracted
by immersing the flowers or plants in
grease. The fat absorbs the odors, and
to remove it the fat is placed in alcohol;
the odor then leaves the fat and enters
into the spirit, which thus becomes
scented.
In the manufacture of perfumes art
has improved on nature, and the per-
fumer must be a good chemist Such
odors as Jockey Club, West End, Mile
fieur and host of others have no
counterpart in garden or grove.
Indian lemon grass likewise gives

foundation, and a dash of verbena,
the perfume of the delicate and fieeting
''sweet-brier" is obtained
OF the animal substances, ambergris,
the secretion of the spermaceta whale,
gives mellowness and permanency to
mixtures. Civet, a secretion of the Afri-
can and Indian cat, has an odor harm
onizing with floral compounds.
Musk is found in the small pocket or
pouch of the musk deer of China, Ton
quin and Thibet. 1t is so powerful,
aromatic and persistent, that one part
of musk will scent more than 5000
parts of inodorous powder.
OF the spice series, caraway and nut
meg are largely used and cloves enter
into many perfumes with high sound
ing names. Cinnamon or cassia is
largely used. Cinnamon or cassia is
the bark of tree. Cassia comes from
China, the true cinnamon from Ceylon,

HOW THEY GET BACK.

Device OF Disappointed Europeans to Re-
turn Home.
Every ono is aware that there is an
export trade in cattle between this
country and Europe, but very few out
side of those personally interested in
the business have a just conception of
its real magnitude. Every week in the
year from three to five cattle steamers,
with from eight hundred head of live
cattle upwards, leave the port of New
York alone.
These vessels carry in addition to
their ordinary crew about fifty odd men
whose sole duty it is to attend to the
stock in transit About half of these
are regular cattle-men used to the care
of animals, and the other half are men
who for one cause or other are DESTROYS

home of the brave" for the effete mon
archy-ridden countries of Europe they
came from. So anxious are they to get
away that they willingly ship as help

twelve to fourteen days hard work
than their grub and their passage over
From time to time lads" appear in the
daily papers calling toS <hese men, and
as rule the applicants are away in ex-
cess of the demand.
The offices whore they are shipped
are mainly on Greenwich street, near
| the Battery. Here the other day a
| News reporter had an interesting con-
versation with one of the principal
agents for procuring this inexpensive
kind of help for the cattle bosses.
J "You want to know" he said, what
kind of men want to work their passage
home in cattle ships. Well. almost all
kinds and conditions of men. We have
applications from young English clerks
who have found that they have brought
their goods to an over-stocked market
and whose money is all gone. nechan'
les who have been out of work so long
that they are in the same condition, and
Youngsters who have run away from re-
spectacle homes in the old country and
are returning, having squandered theil
substance in riotous living, to the ole
man.
1--WE ship quite lot of lsborers, too
and quite a number of these men have
money enough to pay their passage and
ship with US simply to save it. Nearly
all of this class return, as they only e
on the cattle boats that they may have
the more to spend when they visit thei
friends on the other side. We like t.
get them, too, as they are harder work
ers than broken-down clerks and high
toned mechanics"

pause, 1--WE ship actors. l don't NEAR

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, January 18.-Arthur G.
Blake was arrested here on complaint of
Arthur Gorham, the millionaire cattleman,
now residing at Kinsley, Kan. The COM
plant charges Blake with blackmail. The
prisoner was taken to Kinsley on a requisi-
ton from the governor of Kansas, and a
special grand jury will be asked to investi-
gate the case.
The relations of the plaintiff and defend
ant IN this case are peculiar, and have been
a sub ect of much newspaper comment.
Six years ago, while stopping at the Cen
tropolis hotel in this city, Gorham fell dan
gerously i'll. Arthur Blake then one of the
bell boys of the hotel, to whom the invalid
had taken an extraordinary liking, nurse1
Mr.. Gorham through the illness. After his
recovery the attachment seemed to grow
stronger between the cattleman and the
bel boy. They Travelled together for a
number of years.
During that time Blake became possessed
of certain alleged compromising facts con-
corning Gorham's career and drew upon
bis benefactor's bank account at will,

At Chicago Gorham tired of cashing the
drafts and had Blake arrested for forgery.
A jury convicted him and sentenced him to
years confinement IN the penitenhary.
Blake took an appeal, threatened Gorham
(who went his bond), and skipped his bail.
At Los Angeles not long ago Gorham
again had HIM arrested for forgery. Blake
pleaded his own case and was acquitted.
Since that time Blake has been living here
at the Centropolis hotel and has continued
signing Gorham's checks, demanding in
threatening letters that Gorham maze them

Fatal Railway Disaster.

CINCINNATI, January 21.-Near College
Hill junction, the Chicago vestibuled train
ran into the rear OF the Glendale accom-
mediation. There were three passenger cars
on the Glendale train, containing about
seventy-hVe people. The locomotive of the
Chicago yestibuie train ran half way through
the rear car of the accommodation, pilIng
the passenger cars into pile and setting
them on fire.
The fire department was called from Gin
clnnatl and the fire was extingIished.
Four dead bodies have been taken from
the wreck
The engine which ran into the accommo-
datien Is known as the Strong engine and
is expected to draw trains easily at from
sixty to seventy miles an hour. The engi-
neer of that engine, COakley, did not see
the light Of the rear car of the accommada-
ton before him until be was almost on It.
Still he applied the air brakes and reversed
his engine and remained with his engine
until the crash came and then he jumped
for his life. Afterwards he SAID he found
1t Impossible to check the train on a down
grade, but lad used every effort to do so
before he left the engine. The reason of
the accident was that the operator at Car
thage, where train %. 81 entered the block
in which the accident occurred, did not
show the 81 nal that would tell the engineer
that the block was not clear.

State ORGANIZATION.

WICHITA, KAN, January 1.-THE meeting
here, participated in by persons from diff
ferent sections of the state, who favor an
other vote in Kansas on the prohibition
amendment, elected a state organization.
The following resolutions were approved:
Resolved, FIrst-That it is the sense of
this meeting that Governor Humphrey is
warranted in converting the legislature in
special session for the purpose of resub-
hitting the prohibitory amendment to the
people.
Second-That as citizens of Wichita, we
are of the opinion that the intictiOn of a
system of metropolitan police and an as
sistant attorney general have not aided the
cause of true tempe rance.
Third-1hat we are as capable and as
willing to enforce our laws as is the state
of Kansas to enforce them for US.
Fourth-That we are republicans and
have right to ask relief through our party,
and this we propose to do, threats of politi-
cal cruel xiOn by ring newspapers and
political bosses to tn contrary notwith-
standing.
Fifth-That we gladly except from the
above mentioned newspaper clique the
Wichita Eagle, and we take occasion to
publicly thank its editor for his manly,
meeting the real issues. There are also
many other papers throughout the state we
except from the above criticism.
Sixth-While we claim for the prohibi-
tionists the fIeest right to be heard, we do
not feel that they are warranted in assum-
ing that all the brains, al the honor, all the
patriotism, ali the republicanism, all the
morality and all the respectability are con-
tanned within the prohibition ranks.

Ohio Legislators All Sick.

COLUMBUS, o., January Cola grippe
and pneumonia are fast decimating the
democratic majority in the legislature, and
if United States senator was now to be
chosen it Is doubtful which party would sue
coed. Hon. W. F. Knapp, of Defiance, died
last week, and John B. Lawler, a represent
alive of this county, has died. Judge
Thomas Q. Ashburne, senator from the
Brown-C learmont district, is very low at
the American house, with the chances rather
against his recovery, and Henry Brown, the
Hancock representative, is not expected to
live, both having the pneumonia, and like
the two deceased members, were taken first
with la grippe. Ex-State Treasurer How
ellis, the Stark Carroll district senator, is on
the sick list, While half dozen others are
complaining of the influenza and keep to
their rooms. All political legislation is
thus blocked and Will be until the ep.demic
passes away and new elections held. The
situation is extremely critical, as IN case of
Judge Ashburne's death the lieutenant gov
ernorship may fall through. No such sick
ness was ever before known among Ohio
legislators. The wife of one of the Cleve-
land representatives has also died

BERLIN TALK.
Portugal Has Not Appealed to
Bismarck.
Can't See Any Relation Between
the Treaty of Berlin and EngIand's

Safety to Herself.

BERLIN, January 21.-In Official quarters
there is general denial of the Figaro's
story that Portueal had appealed to Bis
marck against England's action as 10 the
violation of the treaty of Berlin. Nobody
here can see what relation the treaty of
Berlin has to Ensland's bullying 1 ortugal
or any other lite state which she may bully
with perfe safety.
People are. however. Just little inclined
to wonder what would have happened if a
bad torpedo should have exploded under q
British ship in the Tagus. We cannot de-
eide whittier the British admiral would say
as FRrragut did, Damn the torpedosS," or
whethes he would 60 to sea. Then England
would be reduced to the extremity OF max
ing a landing somewhere with the regular
10000 men under Lord Woolsey-an army
which might cut queer figure before the
end.
