SOLDIERS AND GENTLEMEN.

Western Pennsylvania has every reason
10 be proud OF its citizen SOldiery, now en-
Camped at kenSington. There was re-
view of the ranks by the Governor on
"Wednesday, and surely never did Com
mandeT-in- Chiefinspecta abrigade composed
Of Drawer or better material than did Cover
nor PattisOn. There was nothing to criti-
else. no Improvements to suggest, and every
movement and evolution was worthy of
highest praise
The soldier boys have now been in camp
for week, and, notwithstanding their
close proximity to the city, and the temp
tatiOnS daily thrown in their path, not a
single disturbance Of any kind has oc-
CURED There have been no scenes. such
as sometimes are reported from encamp-
mentS, and there has not been the slightest
npleaSantneSS. The truth of the matter
is that The Second Brigade is composed of
gentlemen. Both the officers and the men
in the ranks have too much refinement in
their natures to permit anything to occur
that would detract from the excellent
reputation they have won bv their good
behavior and close attention to duties.
When the time comes for the tents to be
removed they will leave behind them
nothing but the best recollectionS of an
orderly, gentlemanly, well-conducted en-
CampmnnL
The review was pleasant both to the
soldier boys and Governor PattiSon, who
took pains to express his views in those
laudatOry terms he knows so we'll how TO
employ. During his few days in camp he
endeared himself to the Brigade by his un-
affected pleasure in all that tended to the
advantage of the meE. Should occasion
require it Is satisfaetoryto know that there
is no Brigade that would be more con-
tilcntly relied upon by the Governor than

HYGIENIC POSSIBILITIES.

The International Congress of Hygiene,
now in session in London, will fulfill its
purpose if the information contained in
the subjects discussed and papers read is
properly disseminated. Even the people
of this community, as well as the health
department of the Government, might
learn few things which would benefit a
large number of citizens.
Among the most important studies of
the present era is that which teaches how
to preserve and prolong life, and, as
hygiene enters largely into the question,
1t behooves everyone to carefully watch
the proceedings of this congress. There
is large field in every city so crowded as
Pittsburg in some localities for improve
ment In all the elements which conduce
to perfect hygienic accommodations
Such odorS as are allowed to exist in
various places would not be permitted for
an instant if the health laws were strictly
observed; nor would the poorer and labor
ing classes be obliged to house themselves
in miserable tenementS, where sickness
and disease cannot fail to exist The pre-
vention of epidemic diseases, the relation
of alcoholism to public health, the proper
construction of schools, and industrial
hygiene, are all subjects which will be
productive of an immense amount of
good, provided the proper amount of at
tention is given to the conclusions of the
eminent scientists.
In the last fifty years the average age of
mankind has been increased to fraction
over forty years from a trifle over thirty,
to which it had. been reduced by the
ignorance of the first principles of health.
The results of continual experiments have
been so encouraging that the attention of
every citizen as well as professional man
has been drawn to the subjecto of longevity.
While the people generally are SO thor
oughly wakened, no effort should be
spared to instruct them further, so that
they may know how to take care of their
health. The range of possibilities to re-
suit from proper education in this subject
is large, and there is no reason why, in
these United States, there may not be pro-
duced communities which are almost
utopian in nature.

PARALYzING A BRITISH SYNDICATE.
1t Loses go Cents Each on 100000 Bushels
of Wheat Sent Abroad.

DULUTH, MINI, Aug. B.-In the last three
months there has been one lot OF i, ,500, 600
bushels of wheat sent through Duluth to
the East by Minneapolis parties. A good
deal of speculation has arisen regarding
this shipment and a further consignment of
100000 bushels that Is now passing through
this city. 1t is said that this wheat is being
sent out of the country by Pillsbury, and
that every bushel of it represents a loss
to the English syndicate running the Mime.
apolis mills of 90 cents.
Las fall Mr.. Pillsbury was a persistent bull
and was a loud exponent of 81 wheat and $40
flour. He was loaded up with a great guam
tity of grain ut prices ranging from 81 10 to
81 Is, and has carried good share of the
year as high as 10000, 900 bushels. Since then
wheat has gone OF pretty steadily, and
short time ago the Minneapolis syndicate
found itself with enough wheat to make
1,OO0,000 barrels of flour right on the eve of
had ever seen, and with the stuff worth
about 80 cents or loss q bushcl Some of this
wheat had to be got out of the way, hence
the shipment of 1000 900 bushels to the East
by Duluth. The entire lot is sent through
on Il special cut rate by the Great Northern
Railroad passing through its own elevators
and on its own vessels to Buffalo and paying
but a fraction of a rate to railways, eleva-
tors and steamships.
a dispatch from Minneapolis says: Mr..
PillsDuiy, being asked as to the truth OF the
statement published under Duluth date,
states tDat the general tenor of the dispatch
is a malicious falsehood The figures are
the grossest and widest exaggeration, both
as to the cost and the amount of wheat. He
has purchased what wheat he has calculated
would be required for milling on the mar

Weaving the Spiders Web.

To the Editor of The Dispatch:
Can the spiders web be woven so as to
make it of a commercial value? NJ. E. H.
PITTsBURG, August l3
practical attempts have been made by
different persons to weave the web of the
spider, but the spiders web is so much finer
than the web of the silE worm that such eff
forts have attained no mercantile import
ance. The web of the spider bears the same
proportion to the web of a silk worm in
strength that the latter does to a broom
stick. The spider makes thousands of
strands. In spite of all the impediments in
the way of weaving it, many yards of spi-
doris silk have been woven, and an entire
dress of this silk was presented to Queen
Victoria number of years ago, when expert
ments were conducted on a somewhat ex-
tenstve scale in weaving the web of one of
the tropical spiders, Which promise more
than do our ordinary spiders of the temper
ate zone. But the experiment was finally
abandoned. Another creature which has
furnished exhibits of silk to curiosity hunt
ers is ''pinna," that weird silk weaver of the
ocean, which weaves byssus of silken
threads by which it attaches its shell to the
rocks. This is a huge mollusk which is
found in the Mediterranean. The silk of the
pima cannot become of practical import
ance because of the difficulty of propagating
the creature or of obtaining sufficient mate
rial from 1t. Another difficulty in the way of
the practical use OF this silk of the sea lies in
coloring it. Like most things of the ocean,
it resists all efforts to dye it.

POLITICAL POINTERS.

''SICK or WELL" says the st. Louis Globe
Democrat CRep.), "Bright's disease or no dis
ease candidate or no candidate Secretary
or citizen, james G. Blaine holds bigger
place In the popular heart of this country
to-day than any other living man."
In view of the fact that American inter-
ests, both industrial and commercial, are
promoted by the Mckinley act, and that
they will be vastly benefited through the
commercial treaties negotiated under the
reciprocity section of the law, the wailing of
the London Times and of British producers
does not excite on this side of the water any
widespread desire to smash the new tariff
Cincinnati TTmes-Stdr.
THE results of the Mckinley bill thus far
have been:
Increased American manufactures, with
lower prices for the things manufactured
. Increased foreign markets, by means of
the reciprocity clause, and consequently in
creased prices of farm products.
Upon these results Mr.. Mckinley can
await the Judgment of the people, with ex-
pectation of a favorable finding.-Chicago
Inter Ocean.
The Philadelphia Inquirer, in speaking of
the Mckinley law, says: There is q general
tone of compliant in the reports from Ger
many, and the English papers are declaring
tnat IL mas DrOuSnG aDOuG 'bne emu OF BOOQ
times for that country. So lit must be work
ing well for the American manufacturer,
giving employment to American working
men, and providing market for the prod
uct of American farms. And that is just
what it was intended to do
THE Dondon Times charges the Mckinley
law with responsibility for the falling off of
English exports and then consoles itself by
asserting that the depressing effect upon
British manufacturers will be more than
equaled by the misfortunes in which the
law will involve the United States. The Nc
Kinley law enables Americans to manufac-
ture for themselves articles they were wont
to purchase from England, and therefore
the market for British goods has been cut
OFF. Americans are very well satisfied with
the situation and will inform the London
Times that they are able to look out for
themselves.-Iroy Times.

DEATH OF HON. C. S. WOLFE.

The news of the death of Hon. Charles
S. Wolfe will be received with unmixed
regret by the entire State. of him it was
well said: ''He possesses the elements of
true political greatness and occupies po-
sition whose individuality is more widely
diffused than that of any man of his wears
who ever appeared in Pennsylvania poll
tics" During the course of his life Mr..
Wolfe occupied positions which brought
out all the brilliancy Of his intellect. In
the Legislative halls he was a gifted
speaker whose eloquenee often convinced
his hearers of the. necessity for measures
he supported.
Before the bar his ctear-sightednes ell
abled him to present the cases entrusted
to his hands in light that seldom failed
to win. As Director General of the Penn
sylvania Worlds Fair Commission he
would have taken pride in making the
State exhibit rank among the best He
was always true to his convictions, no mat
ter what it cost him. The part he took
in the campaign against Senator Simon
Cameron, when he announced that
he would vote against Cameron if elected
to the Legislature; and later his accept
ance of the nomination for Governor from
the PrOhibitioniStS were evidences that he
seldom counted the costs when his con-
science called him In any direction. His
death leaves a vacancy in the ranks of
Pennsylvania brightest sons that will be
deplored by all who knew him, either by
reputation or personally.

THEATRICAL INcoNyENTEScEs

How often in these days do ladies at the
theaters wear the same expression of coun-
tenance to be seen ON the man that has
been hanged, and for the same reason
their feet cannot touch the floor. 1t is
strange that when so much attention is
paid by theater owners TO making their
houses attractive, they neglect to provide
that which is most necessary to the COM
fort of their patrOns-the footstool In
the Old World the rest for the feet is con-
sidered quite as necessary as the velvet
covered cushion or back; but as yet moth
ing has been done in this country to make
the plays more enjoyable.
Ladies, especially those of shorter
stature, are often seen sitting sideways in
their seats with the tips of one toe on the
floor and the other foot resting on the in
step of the first. At the end of the first
act their feet will change positions and
then they begin to get tired and restless,
and it is only by determined effort of the
will that they can take any enjoyment in
the performance. A seat easy and restful
for man may be very uncomfortable for
a woman, and it Is time that managers and
owners should pay some attention to car
ing for the feet of their audiences. If ex-
pensive foOtStools cannot be afforded,
some simple adjustable arrangement at
tachcd to the backs of seats in front
could surely be provided at a trifiing ex-
peTse.

AMERICAN PoLTTENEss CRITICISED,

Paul Lindau, the well-knOwn German
author, was fayorably impressed with
America and Americans during his re-
cent visit here. In a series of letters pub
liShed in the BerliRer TdgebEatt he pays
Americans many compliments, but ne says
there are some things which affect the
foreigner unpleasantly. For instance, he
found that Americans did not always get
up from their chairs when stranger bear
ing a letter of introduction entered their
offices; nor did they take their hats from
their heads, nor remove the cigars from
their mouths when, with a short wave of
the hand, they waved him-not beggingly
to take a seat. They did not take the
trouble to excuse themselves, if they hap
pened to receive him on a hot day in
their shirt sleeves.
Unfortunately his structures upon our
manners were true, and it would be bet
ter, perhaps, if more attention We're paid
to outward forms OF politeneSs. The eX-
cuse is made Oftentimes that Americans
are in too much of rush to give much
consideration to politeness as expressed
on the other side of the Atlantic, and their
independence sometimes takes on very
rude form Of expression.
Mr.. LindaU, however, was more sensi-
bic than are some of the foreigners who
visit the United States He found that
Americans were really desirous of serv-
ing him, and they were untiring in their
efforts to make his sojOurn pleasant,
agreeable and instructive In his eyes
this excused all the faults seen on the sur
face. But every foreigner who visits us is
not as sensible as Mr.. Lindau. There are
some who can never find good word for
America, simply because their sensitive
feelings have been shocked by the out
ward form of their reception. While it is
not to be desired that Americans should
ape the mannerisms of the Frenchman or
the Spaniard, it certainly would be to
their advantage to pay more attention to
their manners than they do at present In
some of the States the children are taught
good manners, and the results have been

Advantages of Cooperation.
Editor 0f The Djsnatrb.


In your articles on cooperation there is
great deal of food for thought not only for
the poorer class but for all classes One
thing in particular attracted my attention,
and that was the idea of q number of fami-
lies having one buyer. Leaving aside the
difference in money they would save that
the middleman would not receive, there is
also another feature that has time and time
again come under MY notice, and that is that
very few people know how, when, and
where to buy Take fruit vegetables, cloth-
ing, furniture or anything you please you
must know at what store to get the best
value for your money. Now take shoes; you
see children wearing Cor width shoe
when they should wear an A or B, not only
making the child uncomfortable but wear
ing out their stockings; the same you'll find
IN all lines OF wearing apparel, in fact any
thing connected with running a house.
