1t should be large enough to accom-
modate comfortably the number of
people to be seated. No moro guests

patterns in damask are small figures,

placed the piece of dainty linen beauti-
fully embroidered in colored silks, rep

snbmnrIno Telephones

The difficulty Of submarine telephony
over great distances is the fact of con-
siderable electrostatic capacity in the
cable, the result of this being retarda.
ton and reformation of the electrical
impulses transmitted If line could be
made of very, very low resistance, SO
that the electric current would have the
freest possible discharge, the evil effect
of this capacity would be in part done
away with. The relation between these
two things has been determined in a
somewhat empirical way. Calling the
total resistance Of telephone wire r
and its total capacity in microferads K,
successful speaking, with our present
instrument, is really an impossibility
when the product KR of the resistance
of the line in ohms by its capacity in
microferads is greater than about 1000.
In the very best Atlantic cable KR
equals somewhere near 5000, 600, so that
unless there should be some totally new
developments in telephony we can see at
once that successful telephoning across
the Atlantic is very improbable on ac-
count of the enormous cost of conduct
or of low resistance and capacity, if fol
no other reason.-Electrical Engineer

Whatever the measures adopted, the
principle of isolation is the essence of all
genuine disinfection Its efficiency fol
this purpose was well shown at EPSON
common. One Of the children in a gypsy
encampment having been taken i'll with
scarlet fever, was, along with its mother,
very successfully separated from the rest
of the community by the simple expedi-
ent Of ring fence made of rope drawn
around the infected tent and regularly
watched.
The result was that the slow progress
OF convalescence was passed through and
disinfection completed without further
extension Of the disease. The surveyor,
Mr.. Harding, is to be congratulated on
the success of his novel and effectual
maneuver. The satisfactory result thus
easily attained is of obvious importance,
and the simple method employed de.
serves to be remembered in case of emer.
gencies of similar kind.-London Ian

Articles Lifted by Eiectricity.

1t is well known scientific fact that a
ruler made of hardrubber or gutta percha
may be so charged with electricity by
friction with wooden cloth that it will
cause to be attracted to it small pieces OF
paper. This fact has been made use OF
in a machine devised to pick up separate.
ly single sheets of thin and light materi.
al, like paper, light fabrics, ETC., in such
a manner that each sheet may be re.
moved and examined. This machine
consists Of roller formed of substance
capable of being charged with electricity
and roller covered with fur which is
rotated at high speed.
During the operation the electrified
roller approaches the pile Of paper by the
action of an eccentric, and attracts the
upper sheet, the next sheet below being
repealed by the well known law of cleo
tricity. The first sheet now falls upon
contrivance which is inserted in the
meantime between the pile and the de-
tached sheet, and can be easily removed
or fed into a ruling machine, if desired.

Dwarfs live TO a Great Ace.

Contrary to their. huge rivals in in
terest, dwarfs frequently attain great
age. Richebourg, who died in Paris il
1858, was ninety years old. He was
only twenty-three inches high, some
thing less than the stature of our owl
most celebrated dwarf, General Ton
Thumb. The first English dwarf o
whom there is authentic record was onl,
II feet high till thirteen years of age
though he afterward attained the heigh
of feet o inches. This was Jeffer,
Hudson, who was presented to Queer
Henrietta by the Duchess of Bucking
ham.
Hudson on that occasion surprised the
company by stepping out of pie. He
is said to have fought two duels--onC
with turkey cock and one with Mr.
Crofts, whom he shot and killed. Hud
son died in his sixty third year in the
Gate House prison, having been accused
as conspirator in the popish plot.

A TWILIGHT SONG.
The thrush has piped his last clear nOts

The thrush has piped his last clear note
To herald twihght's hour,
And fragrant breezes gently float
Around your silent bower.
Now drops the dusky robe of Night,
And, clasping it above,
One jeweled star shines clear and bright
1t is the Star of Lowell
Yet cold and cherries seems its ray,
Sweetheart while you are far away.
The fountain, like fairy Lutte,
In tinkling cadence falls;
And through tho wood, with ftful boot,
His mate the owlet calls.
The crescent moon behind the hill
Creeps up. with silvery light;
Yet round your bower linger still,
While evening grows to night,
And count each weary hour day,
Sweetheart! while you are far away.

Porter, of the census bureau, has made
public additional statistics as to farms,

the recorded real estate mortgage debt Of
$482,G366i0, excluding stnte and railroad
land contracts, was incurred in Kansas
during the decade of 1880 to 1885, large
portion of which has been paid. The

with pupils at the present time, each room
having from sixty to 100 scholars. The
new school building in course of erection

be finished ready for occupancy before Jan.

teachers are doing all in their power to
provide room for the new pupils and
properly grade them. but in view of the
crowded condition of the school house it is
most difficult task and imposes upon
them double burden. The completion of
the new school building, which is to cost

A Big English Flnancier Says We

English Bankers Say That Large Ship
msnts Of Gold Will He Made

LONDON, Sept. 23.-A representative of
the Associated press had an interview with
Rothschilds. Spyers, Layar Bros. and other
bankers, and they all agreed in their state
ments that further large shipments of gold
wcre going to America. The Rothschilds
dispatched an additional 100000 to-day.
In an interview with Robert Clifton, head OF
the commercial department and comptrol-
ler Of corn returns of the British board OF
trade. he asked what truth there was in the
calculation that England and the continent
would be Obliged to part with gold amount
ing to G6O,OOO,OO0 to pay for imports OF
American grain. Giffen ridiculed the esti-
mate. He said before G10, 900, 900 in bullion
were sent America both the bank of Eng
land and the bank of France would raise
their rates of discount and check the drain.
According to Giffen, not bullion
but securities and exports will
90 to America to pay for grain. Sun
doubtedly," he said, "there will be a heavy
drain of gold for several months to come;
but payments for grain were not the sole
cause Of such drain. An important facto,
in the financial situation was the silver
question: American houses, he de-
clared, were making preparations to face
the silver crisis. which is now inevitable
but were making gold purchases in Europe
When asked if such crisis was inevitable
Giffen replied: "In my opinion it is impos
sibls to avert it. For the United States tc
become overloaded with paper currency
issue of silver certificates to the amount
of 1900, 600 pounds sterling annually was
gross legislative mistake. and is bound tt
bring crash speedily"
In response to an inquiry as to how soor
the crash he predicted could be looked for
Giffen said: February will probably real
how grave trouble can be averted by remed
ial legislation. There is hardly time Il
avert 1t. even if parties in congress coul'

The Association Find the Atchison and

CHICAGO, Sept. 23.-The commissioners of
the Western Traffic association gave out q
number of decisions to-day, among them
being one setting forth that the Atchison
and Southern Pacific have acted in viola
tion of the presidents agreement in with
drawing leather traffic between California
and Texas from the jurisdiction of the
Western Traffic association, and that rates
on such shipments should be at once re-
stored to the former basis. Another de
cision authorizes the Northern Pacific road
to establish a rate of so cents per hundred
pounds OH material for tho construction OF
merchant marine vessels from Pittsburg to
Tacoma, with the understanding that if the
rate is found to be applied on other ma
terial, or is likely to involve similar re-
duced rates to other Pacific coast points,
the tariff thus authorized shall be forth
with withdrawn.
