Apartments Well Equipped.
The really fine stores on Eighth avenue,
New York, are not so numerous u what
one can readily remember them all. Some
of them compare very fayorably with
Sixth avenu stores, aud in some ways
excel them. The store of John Hutchin
son on Eighth avenue, corner of Nine
teenth street, is II of the largest stores
on this avenue, and is we'll worth q visit.
All kinds of goods that one may wear,
and all articles i'll the many departments
of house furnishing are sold here at the
most reasonable prices. At present par
ticular attention is being paid to millin-
! cry, and the fall and winter hats That are
being shown here are very stylish and
pretty. AT the rear of the first floor of this
large store is a little aicove lighted by a
large window, wher the trimmed hats
are displayed. A pretty Brussels carpet
covers the floor, and the room looks very
inviting to customers. There is also O.
fine display OF untrimmed hats, felts and
velyets in all the newest shapes, while at
a counter close by is seen a great variety
of hat trimmings from which to select.
Particular attention is given to mourning
bonnets and hats. Near the milliner de-
partment is the cloak and suit depart
ment we'll stocked with a fine assortment
of goods made in the latest fashion.

silks and woolens, are very handsome,

tiest one can possibly find. Handker-
chiefs from three cent ones, for school
children, to the finest qualities
of laces, veilings, gloves in all styles,
dainty opera mitts, and novelties of all
sorts are among the special attractions.
There is a department in this store de-
voted entirely to gentlemen's furnishing
goods, and the scarts and ties, as well as
underwear and hosiery, are of such an
excellent quality that the goods cannot
fail to please. The pleasant room where
the shoes are shown is also on the first
jsoor, and the line of goods is excellent.
Infants wear and ladies' underwear and
suits and underwear for boys in we'll as
sorted stock are shown in. great variety
at reasonable prices. On the basement
fioor is a beautiful display of crockery
and china in all of the best wares, while
all the appointments of a kitchen are
also to be had here. Toys in abundance
and pretty willow ware look very attrac-
tive. This store is very convenient for
people in this city, ana is easily reached
from any of the ferries

AMONG THE FURNACES.


The Hard Life Led by tho Firemen ON the
Racing Steamers.
1t is hot, calm day in the middle Of
summer, the sea rolling in long, smooth,
oily swells There is light breeze
right astern, but the ship is steaming
as fast as the wind, and the sails hang
listlessly from the yards and flap against
the masts and ropes As one descends
the engine-room ladder the air feels
close and deadly heavy and brings on a
dull headache. The engineer on watch
is dragging himself round as II his
limbs were OF lead, and even tho
engines do not seem to be going ahead
with their usual energy. AS we pass
through the tunnel which connects the
engine room with the stoke hole the
sitting atmosphere nearly drives us
back. There is not a breath Of air COM
ing down the ventilators, and the heat
is so great that one has sensation as of
lump of lead in the ears, and ones
voice sounds thick and far away.
The firemen are stripped to the waist
and the engineer has very little more on,
being only distinguishable by the gilt
band and badge on his cap as he moves
about from one furnace to another,
directing the firemen or regulating the
water in the boilers.
In spite of the heat the fires burn
dull, for they can get no air, and the
firemen, urged on-one might say driven
by the engineer, "are doing all they
know" with rake and shovel to keep up
steam, the. perspiration running in
streams down their coal-begrimed bodies
and leaving them striped like zebras.
Each man in turn falls back exhausted.
and is succeeded by another, who lays
hold of the heavy "slice, and works the
fire through and through; but all to no
purpose, for in spite Of all they can do
the steam will not rise. In technical
language, "she is steaming stiff, !" and,
unless the wind changes, or gets strong
er, will continue to do SO.
To keep on at this work without
drinking is impossible, and the firemcn
consume an incredible amount OF water;
but, In spite of all the praise bestowed
upon this beverage by teetotallers, II
has it's dangers when drank to excess,
especially in a high temperature, and
presently one Of the men, who has been
INDUCING too freely, is seized with
cramps in the stomach and has TO be
carried on deck, leaving the rest tearing
away at the obstinate fires.

ELEVATOR SICKNESS.
How 1t May BE Avoided During Rapi
Ascent or Descent.

How 1t May BE Avoided During Rapid
Ascent or Descent.
A great many people are unable to
ride on elevator cars on account OF the
feeling that their hearts and souls are
being pulled out OF them when the ma
chine starts to drop. People with heart
affection are frequently forbidden by
their physicians to ride in the cars, and
in spite of 1t, to save time and legs in
the big buildings Of the city.
A well-known lawyer, who has very
level head at most times, admits that
his. head feels. empty when the elevator
starts down, but claims to have discov-
cred very simple mechanical trick by
which he avoids the all-gone feeling.
He Is willing to have 1t suggested to his
fellow mortals anonymously.
81 take long breath, he said, .'just
as / step on the elevator, and hold it
with tight pressure. Then, just as
the elevator begins to sink, let it out
exactly with the motion of the. car. The
quicker the car starts tn quicker and
harder press out the air, and / don't
feel as II my soul had flown out; in fact,
! can avoid the leses disagreeable sen
sation."
Another gentle nnan who tried the ex-
pertinent voucb.d for the results in his
case. Don't Imagine that you have to
blow SO that every body else in the car
can hear ycs.," he said. "All you need
to do is t. hold the breath tightly and
let it 60 noiselessly out the nose. !
think tsse sensation 10 due to the sudden
cnangs, of pressure OF blood in the heart
and Head, and the compression Of air in
thu breathing organs offsets that press
ufe by reaction when the car ftarts."--

81 whom foS cons Constitute Z qni QUO the
Speaker may declare the most important
bills passed when the record shows tina,
they were voted for by one member only.
II there are enough others present to
make quorum. Unless all previous
presiding officers, were wrong, this Is a
fragrant violation OF the constitution;
but whether SO or not it is certainly a
most dangerous innovation upon tho
settled practice OF the House. and. in
stead OF being reform, it is move
ment in the direction Of loose, uhjas.
and improYident legislation
1t is@true that the power now con-
ferred Upon the Speaker has been cx-
erciseds in some OF the State Legisla-
lures in times Of high political excite
ment or bitter personal contests; but
the dispassionate Judgment of the
thoughtful and conservative people OF
the country condemns 1t, and no consti-
tutional convention has ventured to de-
clare in terms that minority could
pass laws even though tho majority
were absent or silent.
The adoption OF the new rules is in
many respects a long step in exactly
the wrong direction. This is especially
the case SO far as they relate to the
powers Of the Speaker. Reform should
have commenced by curtailing, instead
of extending, the authority of that off
Ger, and the control Of tho House itself
over its own proceedings should have
been enlarged upon some plan which
would have prevented unreasonable and
factious obstruction and delay, but at
the same time given ample opportunity
for deliberate consideration and action.
Under any system of rules that can
be devised, the presiding officer in
body so numerous as the House OF
Representatives will necessarily have
more power than ought to be intrusted
to any man in this country; and no mat
ter how just and impartial he may be,
there will. be occasions when he can not
escape the imputation, at least, of I'M
fair and arbitrary action. In the con-
fiict Of opposing interests and opinions
he is often compelled to decide impor-
tant questions without proper time for
consideration; and, even If he is guilty
Of no intentional abuse Of his great au-
thority, he may do an actual injustice
which can not afterward be repaired
The simple power to decide what mem.
Der shall be recognized to speak or
make motion when more than one
rises appears to be necessary in order to
prevent constant struggles and confu-
sion on the floor, and yet it is power
which often enables the Speaker to de-
termine what measures shall be taken
up, and Is therefore inconsistent with
the absolute freedom and equality OF
members. When such results may fol-
low the exercise Of power so simple
and necessary as this it is not strange
that the advocates Of equal rights in
the House should look with=some-de-
gree of alarm upon every proposition to
confer additional authority upon its
presiding officer.-J. G. Carlisle, in
North American Review.

Most Of the new travelling cioaks are
stylish, handsome garments. Others,
from their extreme delicacy of tint and
fabric. look as II designed merely for
novel show. Among the really useful
models exhibited lately we're those of
reseda, dove-gray and marquise-brown
mohair, velvet-trimmed, with deep "
yokes Of the same. Another model,
made Of very fine fawn-colored Bengal
inc, had a princesse back and fronts in
straight circular form; and still another,
with Newmarket back and connemara
front, was made Of pale chestnut-colored
alpaca. A sort Of trellis pattern in
shades of brown silk formed delicate
woven stripe down the fronts, on the
collar and sleeves and edges Of the
monks hood. This wrap, while stylish,
would certainly prove effective against
dust and cinders, and the color would
not show very quickly any clinging

FALLING in LOVE.

Scientific Fact.

The Process Viewed In the Light Of Cold,
Scientific Fact.
Failing in love, as modern biology
teaches us to believe, is nothing more
than the latest, highest and most In
volved exemplification in the human
race of that almost universal selective
process which Mr.. Darwin has enabled
us to recognize throughout the whole
long series of the animal kingdom. The
butterfly that circles and eddies in his
serial dance around his observant mate
is endeavoring to charm her by the del
icacy OF his coloffng and to overcome
her coyness BY the display Of his skill.
Tie peacock that struts about in inn
perial pride, under the eye Of his atten-
tive hens. is really contributing to the
future beauty and strength Of his race by
collecting to himself harem, through
whom he hands down to posterity the
valuable qualities which have gained
the admiration OF his mates in his own
person.
Mr.. Wallace has shown that To- bo
beautiful is to be efficient; and sexual
selection is thus, ms 1t were, a mere lat
eral form Of natural selection--a sur
vival OF the fittest in the guise Of mu-
tual attractiveness and mutual adapta-
bility, producing on the average max
ifnum OF the best properties Of the race
in the resulting offspring. mast not
dwell here upon this aspect Of the case,
because It is one with which, since
the publication Of the Descent OF Man, !"
all the world has been sufficiently ~

Men Whose Places Can Not He Filled by
the Republican Party.
The Protection side OF American pol
itics is suffering from mortality and dis
ease among it's greatest advocates. In
the death OF William d. Kelley it lost
one Of its strongest defenders; one of its
boldest and most original thinkers. The
appellation of "Pig Iron," which Don
Piatt fastened as prefix on the name
Of Kelley, was a local Specification of a
general principle. Mr. Kelley was the
representative of an IRON producing
State, and iron became with MIN, ac-
eerdingly, the cornerstone of the pro-
tective system. He saw clearly, how
ever, and never lost sight Of the fact
that the perpetuity of that system, az
established under Pennsylvania aus
pices, depended upon the defeat of any
intelligent revision of it. lie realized
that tariff reduction worthy of tho
name would precipitate conflicts and
divisions among the protected interests
which could not fail to result in the
growth OF the reform principle. He was
consistent in opposing the tariff reform
ers at every step, and his ability and
influence were felt in every contest.
A greater loss to the protectionists is
the physical incapacity Of Samuel J.
Randall Less extreme and more adroit
than Kelley, he brought to the protec-
ton side OF the argument the additional
advantage of alignment with the Demo-
cratic party on political lines. Twice
he succeeded, from that point OF van.
tage, in defeating reform measures
which the protection party could never
have defeated alone
There is no one in the protection party
as now constituted to take the place Of
either of these men. Mr.. Mckinley is
dreamer and theorist on this question.
He is neither polite nor practical. II
protection won victory in 1883, its
losses in It's own ranks have since out
weighed that victory, to say nothing of
the progress OF tariff-reform sentiment
throughout the country. St Louis Re-
