CARE or THE EYES.

Never read iu poor or dim light, or
with the light shining ;nto the eyes. The
light should come FROM behind or tie
eide, and thoroughly illuminate the OBJ
iect looked at. II is bad habit to read
lying down or with the head bent over 90
object. This is the more common cause
OF nearsighteduess. When the eyes begio
to pain from use, if rest does not give re-
lief, seek the advice of an occulist. AVOID
reading 10 railway trains and omriouses.
Il requires too great exertion OF ae-
c0modative power to keep the eyes
accurately focused and fixed on the
latsers. Do not read much during con
valescence and illness. Take plenty OF
sleep. Sleep is sovereign balm for weak
sight. Bright gsslight 10 crowded rooms
and the impurity of air OF such places are
especially to be avoided. Foreign bodies.
Il not washed out by increased flow oil
tears, should be removed by 90 occulst.
Eyestones are useless and smart neighbors
worse than useless where hard particles
are EMBEDDED in the transparent surface oi
the eye. II lime or other destructive
alkalis get in the eye. wash the eye
thoroughly with a weak solution oi
vinegar and water, follow by pure
vaseline or sweet oil.

A Distinct Violation of the Navigation,
Laws Governing the Coastwisc Trade OF
the United States.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2O.-The sec.
rotary of the treasury has received
a letter from Senator Hale calling
attention to the fact that sys-
tematic attempt is being made to
evade the navigation laws of the United
States, which excludes foreign vessels
from the coastwise trade. the plan be-
ing to ship freight from New York to
San Francisco and other Pacific ports
by foreign vessel to Liverpool or Ant
werp, and thence in another foreign
vessel from such port to San Francisco.
Acting Secretary Nettleton has writ
ten Senator Hale that the attention of
the department was called to this state
of affairs some weeks ago. and that in
structions were Immediately sent to the
collectors of customs on the Pacific
coast directing them, upon the arrival
of merchandise thus shipped, to insti-
tute legal proceedings against the
property under section Ar of the re-
vised statutes, and report the result to
the department. The acting secretary
expresses the opinion that such ship
ments are distinct violation of the
spirit of the United States navigation
laws, and cantherefore be prevented.

ports that on the last eastern trip of
the OLDHAM the firemen and the coal

Capt. Baker demanded that the men
return to work. In reply they threat

board. The ringleader, Peter Duzen,
approached Capt. Baker threateningly
followed by the rest Of the mutineers.
The captain pulled oat revolver and

a CORNER IN CORN.

No Douot that q Big Corner Is On, but
Who is Doing It?-"Jim" Keene and
"Old Hutch" Suspected of Having n
Hand IN It.
CHICAGO, Aug. 19.-The Post this af-
ternoon says: Many of the board of
trade brokers are advising their custo-
mers to look out for September corn.
Somebody is making an unmistakable
effort to corner the market and big
deal is on. In the face of exceptional
weather and the best crop conditions
the market has gone steadily up during
the past three weeks. 1t started at
5015 cents, and opened to-day at IS
cents. There is everything to indicate
that the price will continue to rise and
the Chicago traders are on" That a
corner was in progress has been sus-
pected by the knowing ones for two
weeks past, but during the past few
days the evidence of the deal have
been SO convincing that there is no
longer any doubt about it, and now the
brokers are looking for the speculator
behind the market
In New York the mischief is laid at
the door of Jim" Keele, and there are
those who accuse the venerable Ben
jamin Peters Hutchinson of backing
the deal. The best authority on
squeezes and corners say s deal in
September corn cannot IL controlled
from New York. Furthern ore, the in
dications point to a Chicago nan. p. ID.
Armour, has reasons for making the
deal and the ready cash to iNack him.
Many 'of the board of trade brokers
say Armour is actually manipu hating a
corner in corn and that before Septem-
Der 80, the price will be hey, nd any
thing anticipated by the most clutious.
But the knowing ones again come in
and say they have their suspicious Of

And there you are. This is the situa.

NOT A GENERAL PRACTICE.

The Taking of Bonds Behalf of Des-
titute Immigrants Only Resorted to
When, in the Opinion of the Authori-
ties, Refusal to Do So Would Result in
Hardship Not Contemplated by the I'm
migration Law.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-United States
Senator Chandler, of New Hampshire,
who is chairman of the immigration
committee of the senate, recently adj
dressed a letter to the secretary of the
treasury, expressing the opinion that
congress never intended to authorize a
system or general practice of permit
ting the landing of immigrants belong
ing to any prohibited class simply upon
their furnishing a bond to the effect
that they should not become public
charge.
Acting Secretary Nettleton, writing
in reply to Senator Chandler, states in
substance that the question thus raised
has not failed to receive proper con-
sideration by the treasury department,
and that it is not the intention to per-
NIT the practice of bonding destitute
immigrants to grow up into system.
He states that both Acknowledgement
Garland and Attorney-General Miller
have furnished written opinions ex-
pressing the view that, under existing
legislation, bonds of this nature
may properly be taken by the secre-
tary of the treasury in such exceptional
cases as, in the exercise of a just dis
cretion, he thinks entitled to such
treatment. The acting secretary fur
Their states that the intention is to limit
the taking of bonds to such cases as
fall distinctly within the meaning of
the law as thus officially interpreted.
the practice being mainly confined to
instances where a refusal would result
in separating the memb ers of a family,
and thus cause a degree of hardship
which it is not believed was contem-
plated by congress.

Won MoLTkE,s MEMOIRS.

New Light Shed Upon Events of the
Franeo-German War-Gambetta Mixed
Up with lsazaine in the Metz Affair
The Prussian and French Armies COM
pared.
LONDON, Aug. a2.-The long-expected
memoirs of Count Won Moltke are
printed to the extent of five columns
in the Times. The count touches very
lightly upon political matters, but con-
fines his attention almost exclusively
to the military details of the war
of 1870 He reviews at consider
able length the incidents sur
rounding the surrender of the Metz
and the alleged traitorous conduct
of Marshal Bazaine. The disloyalty
or the part of the general he rather ac-
centuates than palliates, and goes even
further than this, and introduces the
name of Gambetta into the possibility
of Bazaine taking part in a political
plot which had for its object the throw
ing of the dictatorship in the hands of
Gambetta and his fellow-conspirators
Won Moltke's criticism on the bat
tie of Sedan gives many facts
entirely new to the readers
of history, and gives additional
facts of interest of that marvellous
cavalry fight. Much attention is given
to the exploits of the then King VIII
liam, and it will probably excite some
interest that he has passed over with
only a cursory mention the position oc-
cupied by Prince Bismarck. Won

Sound Doctrines.

It is the employment of capital and
personal property upon land that gives
the latter it's chief assessable value
This is easily seen in the case of city
property. The bulk of personal prop
erty, and especially of that which so
easily evades the assessor, is employed
in operations of industry and trade for
the production of wealth. To put a tax
upon it is to impair in some measure it's
productive power and diminish the re-
suit of production That is in itself an
unwise policy. The more freely and
profitably capital can be employed in
any community the greater will be the
value of real estate upon which it must
necessarily be employed. The great
value of a lot of land on Wall street or
Broadway is due to the profitable use
of personal property in it's occupancy,
and to leave personal property untram-
meled in it's use by taxation will in
crease its productive efficiency and
thereby add to the value of the real
estate which it occupied in it's use. The
real estate will be the better able to
bear the burden of taxation, and to tax
it alone will make the burden lighter
and easier to carry than if it were i'm
posed upon both classes of property.
Withdraw capital from Wall street and
Broadway, and what would their real
estate be worth? Drive any part of
that capital out or render it unproduc-
tive by taxation, and the assessable
valve of real estate will be proportion.
