 The Dutch took Holland again yesterday and the Democrats are correspondingly happy. There was light vote notwith- standing the good weather and the heroic efforts of the "pullers-in." There were some interesting antics in some of the wards. In the First, for instance, Professor Newton yesterday reaped where he had sowed for several years, and there were signs of some other reaping. In the Second ward, the hopes of the Democrats who wanted to see a quarrel among the Republicans were dis appointed, aud the Republicans had good majorities. In the Third ward MT. Chid- sey ran ahead of his ticket. To be sure, he didn't have to run to any great extent to do this, but he did it, and is entitled to the distinction which such an achievement confers upon the achiever. In the Fourth MT. Doody showed that he could 'hold the fort" In the Fifth, Sixth and Seventh the Democrats voted as they usually do. In the Eighth the Republicans quite held their own, and Alderman Champion did more. In the Ninth the Republicans didn't hold anything.
 As result of the performance the next court of common council will have Dem ocratic majority of twenty-two on joint ballot But as they cannot repeal the Nc Kinley bill or establish free coinage all may yet be well, or at least tolerable.

again, and it is then taken into another department, where several small strands of this yarn are twisted into one fine one. Three of these are then twisted together, and you then have six cord thread, which, after it is bleached ,is ready for the market. Another interesting thing is the number, ing of the thread. Every lady knows the size of thread that she requires for doing certain piece of work, but very few of them know how it came to be so num- bered. When cotton thread was first made, $40 yards of it weighed one pound. This was called No. 1, and if pound con- tained just twice this number of yards it was called No. 3, and SO on.
 The general impression is that pauperism issteadily increasing in England and Wales, but the contrary appears to be the fact. From parliamentary paper just issued it appears that the number of persons in re- ceipt of relief in those countries in the last week of August, 1891, was 638, ,976, which, notwithstanding the increase of population, was smaller than in any corresponding month during the past thirty-four years. The proportion which the paupers bore to the population was g to the thousand as compared with 45.2 in 1863, when the proportion was highest. In nine out of the fourteen years from 1857 to 1870 it was more than 40 to the thou sand. The figures relating to the metropolis are not so good, but still in dicate a substantial decrease. In the fourth week of August, 1891, there were S5,S87 persons relieved in London, which was smaller number than in each week of the month in the preceding five years. The proportion of pauperism to population in the metropolis was 29.3 to the thousand in 1891, as against 33.S in 1857, and was smaller than in any of the previous thirty four years. It was the highest in 1868, when it reached 41.2 per thousand.

EARTHQUAKES IN LA PAN.

The recent earthquake in Japan has called attention to the work of the Seis- mological society of that country. A scientific study of earthquakes has been made in Japan, where they are frequent. Among the more practical results of this study is the discovery, from the observed laws of earthquake movement, that by cer- tain methods of constructing buildings a very considerable degree of protection can be secured against destructive shocks. These methods have been very generally applied by the Japanese, and the results have, up to the present time, at least, amply shown the value of the discovery. Professor John Milne, who, while occupying chair in the Impe- 1 rial college at Tokio, became a seismolo- | gist of wide fame, says that so far as his experience goes he has never seen in a native Japanese timber building, espe- cially constructed to withstand shocks, any signs that could be attributed to earth | quakes, though earth tremors are almost constant in that country, small quakes ire | quent and large ones not rare. It is also ! said to be fact that none of the native temples and palaces, though many of them are centuries old, show any signs of hay, ing suffered. The greatest damage wrought by large earthquakes in Japan heretofore l has resulted from the influx of large
 waves and from fires. The material of
 which nearly all Japanese houses are con
 structed is readily infammable, and, oi
 course, fires are easily started when tht
 shock comes.
 The great damage done by the recen
 earthquake seems hardly consistent witi
 what has been said. The latest reports ar
 that great many buildings were shaker
 down, and that very unceremoniously ant
 completely.

Polite. From Light

'I beg your pardon, uncle," said gen. tleman who, while rushing from a horse car, had accidentally run against an old negro standing on the platform, and had knocked the old fellow to the ground, where he lay sprawling on his back.
 Scrambling to his feet by the assistance of the gentleman who had been the cause of the accident, the old fellow slapped the dirt from his clothes, saying as he did so:
 Hits no mattah, sab; no mattah in de least. was gwine ter git of at de next co'nah, anyhow, sab. an I might ez we'll git of heah ez dar. Hits all de same ter me, sshl"
 The fact that he had been knocked of did not seem to figure in the case at all as | far as he was concerned.
