cipal record of his life in this old house

sion in an autobiography that at the age

corded the fact that the rcformer was born
just one hundred years after his great
grandfather. In making this entry Owen
added, 1--WE live in peace with all man
kind so far as know" But the boy did
not find IL peaceful life, and today the
crumbliug structure where he was born
and nursed and everything connected with
it are in danger of destruction at the hands
of relic hunters, who wish to preserve
mementos of the fighting agitator. Even

The plan for the preservation of the old
house includes also It's restoration to its

both the dwelling and the land adjoining
twill together be placed in the same shape
that they were early in the century. The
house will be open to sightseers, and nu-
merous John Brown relics, collected from
all over the country, will be arranged in
various rooms convenient for inspection.
The movement is in the hands of I'orring-

GrowtI. Of NurtI,rrn States.

The completed figures OF the census in
all the northern states show some odd
facts. First, the percentage of increase has
been less than in any previous decade (the
war era eXceptcd), though the increase by
immigration has been twice as large. De-
Quoting the 4, 700 600, or about that. of Eu-
ropeans located in the north since 1880, it
would appear that the natural increase
has been but l24 per cent, or IL fraction

that of Great britain, where the natural
increase is AK per cent. in Il decade.

he witnessed some of the stirring
scenes three years ago when the Mara
bout Lamame laid waste large dis
trict and gave French interests in up
per Senegal such a lively shaking up.
One day he was with his mother in
their straw hut when he saw some of
the Marabout soldiers set fire to some
huts near by aud then start to apply
the torch to his own home He picked
up his fathers breech-loader, and
though he was not strong enough to
hold the weapon to his shoulder he
shot two of the soldiers dead and the
others ran for dear life. The incident
is mentioned in the official reports on
the French campaign against the
Marabout, and the boy now has a
medal to show what piucky 9-year-old
he was.

Made to Look New.

Old clothing may be made to look
nearly as good as new by pursuing the
following plan, says the Philadelphia
Record:
Take for instance a shiny old coat,
vest, or pair of trousers of broadcloth,
cashmere, or diagonal. The scourer
makes a strong, warm soapsud and
plunges the garment into it, rubs the
dirty places; if necessary puts it
through second suds, then rinses it
through several waters and hangs it to
dry on the line.
When nearly dry he takes it in, rolls
it up for an hour or two. and then
presses it. An old cotton cloth is laid
on the outside of the coat and the iron
passed over that until the wrinkles are
out; but the iron is removed before the
steam ceases to rise from the goods,
else they would be shiny. Wrinkles
that are obstinate are removed by lay
ing wet cloth over them and passing
the iron over that.
If any shiny places are seen they are
treated as the wrinkles are; the iron is
lifted, while the full cloud of steam
rises and brings the nap up with it.
Good cloth will bear many washings
and look better every time because of
them.

order of living and free homes against

cation of their own intelligence, of
capital and labor, in higher order of
farming-in extensive farming, each
acre being handled on the intensive
plan"
A practical dalryman writing to the
n. Y. Times says mistake is often
made in the use of hot water in clean
ing dairy utensils. Hot water makes
milk curd insoluble and hard and
tough, so that when utensils are scald-
ed before they are thoroughly cleaned
from the remains of sour milk, the
curd is solidifed in the pores of the
wood and becomes permanent agent
of mischief. ANY alkali dissolves curd
of milk; and after first well rising the
utensils, and especially the churn, with
cold water, solution of common soda
or saleratus Carbonate of potash) may
be very usefully employed to complete
the removal of all traces of the sour
milk. Then another rinsing with cold
water and followed by scalding with
boiling water and finishing dashing of
cold water, always pure, will complete
the work

elapsed the two had become thorough

At Low Tide.

Shining and even packed to north and to south
stretch the sands
Tenderly, daintily ,smoOthed by the touch Of
the outgoing tide;
Soft as babes soft hair set in place by a
mothers hands
Each tress of the late-left sea weed is straight
ened and spread out wide.
Further, far off are the breakers sudden
emerald wall
Lifted against the sky, and topped with a
f1ame-like foam;
Joyous the white crest CLEANS, then crashing
down to its fall,
Creamy and spent it sobs itself back to its
ocean home.
Wide are the pale blue skies that melt In the
infinite cloud
Where sea and sky are one on the far hori-
IONS verge;
But the lighthouse down at the point stands
starkly, solid, and proud,
Its feet in battling mist of breakers and
sands and surge.
On the wide, vague sea of thought are sudden
CLEANS of light
Lifted high up to heaven, bright with new
hopes sun:
As we watch they waver and fall, and nothing
is left in sight
But the battling mist of doubt where faith
and unfaith are one.
Yet, steadfast in whirl and wave, tower Of
riftless rock
Stands with its feet on stone crowned with
aquenchess light;
Despite the doubts tn at darken and the force
of the tempests shock,
Itstands pillar of strength by day, and a
pillar of fire by night.

A Prolific Playwright.

Speaking of Boucicault reminds me
of how little we really know about the
men who write plays and their words.
Think of it! Steele Mackaye, although
yet young man, less than forty-fve,
has written and produced twenty diff
ferent plays, nearly every one of
which has run from fifty to hundred
nights in one locality. Besides this
vast amount of work he has built
three theatres and opened them with
his own productions. Yet not more
than one theatregoer in thousand
who will look at his wonderful play of
Paul Kauvar" and his still more re-
markable one of IAN Arrant Knave,"
which he recently wrote for Stuart
Robson, can recall three plays from
this remarkable mans pen.

AN ARTISTIC MANSION.
Which May at Last Be of Some Use to tho
Public.

The following editorial from the San
Francisco Report is not without interest
to those who are familiar with the city
at the Golden Gate: The Flood man
sion stands on the summit of Mob Hill.
virtually deserted. The Flood family
does not intend to inhabit it again, and
it is very unlikely that any other
family will ever desire it. 1t is very
fine mansion. But it is not the kind
of house that our millionaires like to
live in nowadays. 1t occupies a COM
handing position, but the glory of Mob
Hill has departed. No one will ever
build or buy another ''palatial resi-
dence' on Mob Hill. The summit of
Mob Hill is not the aristocratic quarter
par excellence now, and will steadily
be less aristocratic. The drift is west
ward. But the Flood mansion is for
sale, and it will be sold finally for some
purpose or other. What will its ulti-
mate fate be, with its massive walls, its
$40, 900 bronze fence. its spacious and
gorgeously decorated apartments?
QUEEN sabe? What we would like to
see it bought for and transformed into
is an art gallery and museum. 1t is
already well fitted for the latter, for
the rooms are large and high and well
arranged, and the alterations to fit it
for proper display of pictures would
not be very extensive or costly. OF
course we would rather have the city's
museum and gallery out in the park.
But Mob Hill is our second choice. It
is very accessible by cable car now
from all parts of the city, and the
beautiful view the building commands
would be an additional attraction.
Now, which of our rich men will
come in and contribute the money
necessary to buy and fit up this man
sion and thus establish an institution
such as all great cities have and San
Francisco must have, not only as a
standing attraction, but as means of
educating and refining its people. No
few, but plenty of contributions would
soon come in, once a handsome and
safe place for their display had been
provided.
