According to correspondent of the Chi~
cago Herald democratic senator recently
said to republican senator that "the Re-
publican party appears to be in a hole" to
which the republican frankly replied: Eyes,
in three holes, and it is a question which
hole is the deepest and most difficult to
climb out of-the silver hole, the tariff hole
or the force bill hole" Then said the dem
ocrat: "Just stay where you are. and the
people with their little shovels will DO the
rest" Apparently this indicates the repub-
lIcans are quite as philosophically resigned
to their position as the democrats are
brightly buoyaut at their pleasing pros
poets,

short scuffle with his conscience. In order

Mr.. Dana has to do is to get it. Up to the
present writing, however, he hadn't got it.
But the Herald keeps quite cheerful. and
goes right ahead getting people to express
their opinions of him and then frankly
printing the hard things they say with
heartless fidelity. What Mr.. Dana has
done to provoke this refinement
of cruelty. and how much longer
the Herald intends to keep him
roasting on the rack, are unanswered lie
conundrums. Despite the fact that one
saloonist was fished out who appears to
think the fat-hating professor is a bully

under his arm, the chances are that he is

The Hutohinson's Island Sale.

There is, Of course, difference Of opin-
ion as to the wisdom Of the action of the
city in selling Hutcninson's Isla d for the
small sum of g., 500. but it is probable that
the majority of those who have given the
matter careful consideration are satisfied
that the city has made good bargain.
The island will, Of course, become very
valuable piece OF property If improved as
proposed, but 1t hasn't very great value
at present. In fact, 1t has been a source of
expense to the city for many years, because
the public health demands that its banks
shall be kept up and It's drains kept open.
But has the council taken as great pre-
caution as it should to insure its being kept
In good sanitary condition between now
and the time when the Middle Georgia
and Atlantic railroad will occupy it'll 1t is
not probable that the road will be COM
pleted within less than two years, and il the
banks and drains are not attended to care
fully the island may become disease-breed-
ing spot.
1t IS true that the ordinance provides that
the railroad shall be compelled to keep the
island in good sanitary condition, but how
is it to be compelled to do it,
1t may be that there will be no difficulty
in compelling it to do what the ordinance
requires, but would it not have been more
satisfactory If a forfeiture of the island
had been provided for in the event of a fail
ure to comply with such sanitary regula-
tons as the city may provide!
When the road is completed there will be
no trouble about sanitary matters. The
interests of the road will require the island
to be kept in good sanitary condition. 1t is
only between now and the completion of
the road that banks and drains are likely to
be neglected.
The council seems to have taken ali neces-
sary precaution against parting with the
| island before there is satisfactory evidence
| of the intention of the railroad company to
build the road. Before title is TO pass
seventy-tive miles of the road from this
city must be built; also the bridge across
the river and two miles of road on the
island When that much work is COM
pleted the present company. or some other
company, will build the entire line.

How CeIluIoid Is Nr.nufactured.

While everybody has heard of, or seen, or used celluloid, only few know what it is composed of or how it is made The following is a description of the process carried out in a factory near Paris for the production of celluloid:
 A rolf of paper is slowly unwound, and at the same time saturated with a mix ture of five parts of sulphuric acid and two parts of nitric acid, which falls upon the paper in fine spray. This changes the cellulose of the paper into proxylin gun cotton. The excess of the acid hay ing been expelled by pressure, the paper is washed with plenty of water until all traces of acid have been removed. It is then reduced to pulp, and passes on to the bleaching trough.
 Most of the water having been got rid of by means of a strainer, the pulp is mixed with from 20 to 40 per cent. of its weight in camphor, and the mixture thoroughly triturated under millstones. The necessary coloring having been add ed in the form of powder, a second mix ing and grinding follows.
 The finely divided pulp is then spread out in thin layers on slabs, and from twenty to twenty-five of these layers are placed in a hydraulic press, separated from one another by some sheets of thick plotting paper, and are subjected to pressure of 150 atmospheres, until all traces of moisture have been got !rid of. The matter is then passed between rollers heated to between 40 and 150 degs. Fahrenheit, whence it issues in the form of elastic sheets.-The Inventor.

The "sentence System. l"

Charles Dickens, while visiting the Massachusetts school ship, was called upon for speech" He responded by saying, Boys, do all the good you can and make no fuss about it"
 Mir. Dickens, as his novels attest, be- lieved in the beneficial effect of a pithy saying and a striking proverb-pointed words which would fasten themselves in the memory. The conductors of the Netherlands Mettray," one of the model reform schools of Holland, use this "sen- tence system" as a means of moral edu- cation. They hang on the walls such sentences as these:
 ''He who seeks himself will not find God;" "A poor man he who has nothing but money" "He is fool who lives poor to die rich;" Labor has a golden bot tom;" Care for the moments, and these will care for the years"
 Sometimes a boy is made to learn a sentence by heart. One boy was over heard using foul speech to a comrade. He was ordered to read to the boys every morning for eight days this sentence, ''It is better to be dumb than to use tho tongue for filthy talk" It made him clean in speech.-Youth's Companion.

A Countryman Bursts Paper Bags.


 He boarded Ninth avenue elevated train at Fifty-ninth street. Linen dust CT, broad brimmed straw hat, bulg- ing gray umbrella, green inside, grasp ed firmly by the middle, hands like boxing gloves and feet like couple of hams showed plainly that he was a stranger in New York. He looked 30, but acted like 13-year-old boy. Along the aisle of the car were lot of paper peanut bags, thrown there by a party of small boys.
 As the stranger moved toward his seat he deliberately stopped and gath cred up all these bags, and as he sat down a cherubic smile of satisfaction overspread his countenance. He care fully smoothed out each one and placed it over his knee, pocketing an occasional stray peanut. His opera tions were watched with interest by his neighbors, and also his smile, which grew more supremely happy as the mo- ments passed. An occasional chuckle could be heard.
 When everything was arranged to his satisfaction he picked up the bags one by one, raised them to his mouth, filled them with wind, and then holding each at arms length brought his boxing glove hand down on it with the force of a pile driver, making such report that the windows shook, men started and women gasped.
 When this interesting operation had been performed several times, and the supply of bags remained apparently as large as ever, the passengers began to expostulate. A woman across the aisle timidly asked:
 "Will you please stop that, sir2"
 He only stared at her in surprise.
 "When are you going to stop that internal racket" growled his huge whiskered neighbor.
 "Why, it's lots of fun," chuckled the other
 Finally the gateman came in and told him he would have to stop that.
 ''What~ said he; ''when I come daown to the city t hev some fun, an when I pay my five pennies fare, can't I do as 1 want to2"
 He was informed that he could not in that car.
 So he gathered up his bags, got up, and as he moved away he was heard to mutter: 'Well, I SNOW, this is the durndest town ever seel"-New York Tribune.

4 New Gas Meter.

A new gas meter is being made in considerable numbers in Manchester, England. By it's aid pennyworth of gas can be obtained by the consumer. The penny is dropped into slot and pushed home by piston or pusher, after which it drops into a locked drawer or receptacle. While the penny is being pushed through it releases a star wheel which is operated by fingers or pawls fixed upon the drum. At the same time a conical valve by whichthe admission of gas is controlled is raised to a certain height. The revolution of the drum moves this valve down at speed proportionate to that of the passing gas, and by the time the quan- tity which can be sold for a penny is delivered the valve closes, shutting of the supply.
 As soon as the gas is supplied the me ter drum is again locked by the deten- ton of the star wheel. If while a pen nyworth of gas is being consumed the pusher is raised to repeat the action without a coin no additional supply can be got, and the introduction of another penny insures the valve being opened as much further as is necessary to supply that valve of gas, although the remainder of the first portion re- mains to be delivered. The mechanism is well designed to prevent any fraudu- lent use being made of it, and is very simple and easily adapted to various re- quirements.-New Orleans Picayune.

Hunting for His Wife.

Many of our people see a gray haired and bearded old gentleman walking around the streets with a sadness about his countenance which, though, can only be detected after close observation, for as soon as he sees you a smile lights up his countenance in token of recognition. He is German and musician, and is seen every night at the opera house when there is an entertainment there. His name is Professor Ressler. He came to this country some sixteen years ago from Germany to make his home here, leaving his wife behind until he could get settled, when he would send for her. Having secured the desired end, letter was dispatched home telling his wife of his success and bidding her to como. It is said that she sailed from her native home with a glad heart, in anticipa- tion of meeting with her husband after an absence of two years. Every vessel that came over was eagerly looked after, the newspapers were scanned for intelli- gence of her arrival, but nothing could be heard of her. The ship on which it is said she sailed arrived in Baltimore and the wife landed there. The professor with joyous heart went there, but To! no trace of her could be found, and the days, weeks and months until fourteen years have passed without his knowing of her whereabouts. From city to city has he gone in the search. His head was black then. now it is white, but there is a tenderness in his face mixed with sorrow, and cankering in his heart, but he goes on and on, with the hope of finally meeting his long lost wife, Athens (Ga.)

Some Causes of Headache.

Neuralgia headaches are the expres- sion of an immense number of irregu- larities and diseases. Decayed teeth are frequent causes, and in not a few instances severe headaches of this sort are clearely due to teeth so slightly de- cayed that only a dentist can detect the defect
 Headaches, especially those in which the pain is felt most in the forehead, are frequently caused by inequalities in the eye. And often very slight defects, scarcely appreciable to the victim, are sufficient to cause them. Many persons have one normal eye, while the other is slightly abnormal.
 In such cases there is considerable strain if the eyes are used much in reading, which is especially liable to cause headache. The only remedy in these cases is, of course, a proper pair of glasses. Headache from defective sight is not always limited to the region of the forehead, for sick headache is frequently associated with it-Boston Herald

Death of Dumas Coob.

At Le Puy, near Dieppe, there has died an old Russian named Vasili, who in his time obtained considerable celeb rity as the cook of the elder Dumas. His position in the household of the great tictionist was by no means a sine cure, for it is recorded that when the extravagant and open handed author of ''Monte Cristo" was hard up Vasili had to concoct culinary dishes on next to nothing. Pere Vasili was always equal to the occasion, and was always punctual to the minute with his courses. When the great Alexander died at his villa at Le Puy, in 1870, Vasili was paid off handsomely by Alexander Dumas fills. He then retired from private em- ployment, and opened restaurant near the abode of his former master. This establishment was patronized by tourists, chiefly out of curiosity.-Pall Mall Gazette

New Method of Making Barrels.

Barrels are now being made of hard and soft wood, each alternate stave being of the soft variety and slightly thicker than the hard wood staye. The edges of tie slaves are cut square, and when placed together to form the barrel the outsides are even, and there is a V shaped crack between each stave from top to bottom. In this arrangement the operation of driv- ing the hoops forces the edges of tine hard slaves into the soft ones until the cracks are closed, and the extra thickness of the latter causes the inner edges to lap over those of the hard wood slaves, thus maR- ing the joint doubly secure.-C Chicago Times

Supposed to be Over 1900 Years Old.

In the province of Canton are occa- sionally dug up ancient copper gongs or drums, which some say were made by the aboriginal Laos tribes, others say by Ma Yuan, the renowned commander who invaded Tong King in A. D. fl and quelled the rising of the rebellious tribes against the Chinese, erecting a pillar of bronze on the extreme southern border of the "hill country" The Nan-hai Maio temple, at Canton possesses two of these curious monuments, one large and one small; the characters are mostly in- decipherable, owing to the length of time they have been under the ground. The larger one was obtained from the tomb of a barbarian chief 1 ,000 years ago, dur ing the Tang dynasty at Kao-chow; the smaller one at Sunchow. They are much valued as rarities by the Canton people. A very fine sounding one was dug up lately and presented by the finder to the Temple of Confucius. - Chinese Ex- chance

Its pur- pose is to enable observers to take read ings as often as desired, and by a sin gle wire, from barometers and ther- mometers placed at great heights or distances without the necessity of the observer being resident where the in struments are placed, thereby saving much expense and enabling observa- tions to be taken at points where resi- dence might be impossible.
