". E. CARAVANS LETTER.

Editor of Ne,cs
 Herewith I send you $500 for sub- soription to THE NEWS. It costs money to run paper; it requires time and talent. There is no paper I peruse with more interest, than the CONNECTICUT WESTERN NEWS. I read in your last issue the report of the dedication of the soldiers monument ati Salisbury Center; a monument erected in respect for their honored dead. I poted the speakers; some of those names were familiar-but most of those who were in active life 40 years ago. with many of the young. your death column from week to week, has recorded their decease.
 It is not the transactions of yesterday that we can most readily call to mind or that interest ns much. Ask the man of fourscore; he will catch the thrill of early youth; his heart will hutter with the memories of early companions; his pulse will fly; he lives again in the past; every rippling stream, every little hil- lock, and those massive piles of rock here and there heaped mountain high, not by the puny hand of man, )au have a charm and in sweet reminisence we we again live in our youth.

Manufacture of Thimbles.

Dies of different sizes are used, into which the metal, whether gold, silver or steel, is pressed. The hole punch ing, finishing, polishing and tempering are done afterward. Celluloid and rubber are molded. The best thimbles are made in France, where the process is more thorough.
 The first step in the making of a Paris gold thimble is the cutting into disk of the desired size thin piece of sheet iron. This is brought to a red heat, placed over a graduated hole in an iron bench and hammered down into it with punch. This hole is the form of the thimble. The iron takes it's shape and is removed from the hole. The little fluctuations to keep the needle from slipping are made in it, and all the other finishing strokes of the perfect thimble put on it. The iron is then made into steel by process pe- culiar to the French thimble maker, and is tempered, polished and brought to deep blue color. A thin sheet of gold is then pressed into the interior o1 the thimble and fastened there by a mandril.
 Gold leaf is attached to the outside by great pressure, the edges of the leaf being fitted in and held by small grooves at the base of the thimble. The article is then ready for use. The gold will last for years. The steel never wears out, and the gold can be readily replaced at any time.-New York Telegram.

A Tennis Costume.

Buy ten yards of outing cloth at twelve cents yard. If you like stripes, choose one of the pretty combinations of soft blues, pinks, grays and creams; but if you prefer you can get the cloth this season in a solid color. If you have a supply of silk shirts and a good blazer you will not need more than seven yards. Have full round short skirt, the draperies being as plain and straight as possible. If you cannot af- ford silk shirts make a shirt of the out ing cloth on the model of the silk shirts sold in the stores, with turnover collar and lacings in front of bright cord.
 Get a leather belt, if you have slim figure, to match in color your tennis shoes; or get silk waist scarf or sash, knotting it in convenient position al one side without passing about the waist, if you are not slim. Get two o1 three silk scarfs to knot into pretty ties at your throat, and then you will be fixed, except as to shoes.
 Your tennis shoes, if they are good ones, will cost about three dollars, and you can tie them up with cords of the color of your sash and the bright stripe of your gown.
 Then there is the hat-it was nearly forgotten. A little sailor hat answerl fairly we'll, simply trimmed with rib bons like your sash and shoe lacings or, if it becomes you, a big bright Tan O Shanter is 8 patch of color in the tennis fleld.-New York Recorder.

 A four horse load of tony young people from Norfolk took straw-ride
 to Canaan last Friday evening. They
 chattered like sparrows in hedge; sang. shouted and blew tin horns. Some of Canaan's hoodlums took advantage of
 the darkness and manifested their appre-
 citation of the noisy straw-ride and they gave the Norfolkers volley of fresh eggs which besmeared and ruined dress es and coats. One stylish young man had just removed his hat when an egg struck him on the head and decorated his face. his collar and shirt front. Such reception was outrageous not
 withstanding the sick and nervous peo- pie in this village did not enjoy the
 racket made by the visitors.

White Neckties.

Within the past two or three years there has been marked increase in the number of people wearing white neck ties of silk, satin, linen or cotton, in the public streets, wearing them not in preparation for dinner, but as part of the regular daily garb. A reporter who walked along Broadway the other af- ternoon saw over a score of them around the necks of well dressed men. In some cases they were becoming; In others, they were not. The bowknoe white necktie looked seemly upon some wearers; the white scarf looked we'll on others. s.-New York Sun.

DROWNED IN A WHIRLPOOL.

The Tragic Death of Presidene Brown In
 tho Colorado Marble Canyon.
 On the morning of July 9, MT. Brown and the supplies having arrived, we started into the unknown depths of Marble canyon, with three boats and OUT little party of eight. That night we oamped at the lower end of the Soap creek rapid. President Brown seemed lonely and troubled, and asked me to sit by his bed and talk. We sat there late, smoking and talking of OUT homes and our journey on the morrow. When I awoke in the morning MT. Brown was up, and as soon as he saw me said, ''Stanton, dreamed of the rapids last night, the first time since we started"
 After breakfast we were again on the river in very swift water. Mir. Browns boat with himself and Mcdonald was ahead, my boat, getting out from shore with some difficulty, was little dis tance behind. In two minutes we were It the next rapid. Just as we dashed into the head of it I saw Mcdonald running up the bank waving both arms. We had for a few moments all we could do to manage our owp boat. It was but 8 moment. We were through the rapid and turning out into the eddy. I heard McDon- aid shout, "Mr. Brown is in there" I looked to the right, but saw nothing. AS our boat turned around the whirl- pool on the left, the notebook which MT. Brown always carried shot up on top of the water and we picked it up as we passed.
 MT. Browns boat was about one-haH minute ahead of mine. His boat went safely through the worst part of the rapid, but in turning out into the eddy m upshooting wave, so common in that river between the current and the whirlpools and eddies on the side, up- set it without a moments warning. Brown was thrown into the whirlpool while Mcdonald was thrown into the current. Mcdonald, as he came up, saw Brown on the side of the current and shouted to him, Come on." He answered with a cheerful "All right. "
 Mcdonald, carried down by the stream, twas three times thrown under by the terrific tossings of the mad wa ters," and with great effort reached the left bank, where the current rushed upon the shore at sudden turn to the right. AS soon as he recovered himself he saw Brown still in the whirlpool, swimming round and round. Rushing up the bank he shouted to us for help. In that whirlpool poor Brown battled for his life, till exhausted in the fight hetsank. B. Stanton in Scrihnef'a

 Curious Deep Sea ProductJ.
 Fishes have been found, it is said, three miles below the surface of the ocean, and when speciality has been made of deep sea soundings, as in the voy- age of H. M. s. Challenger and others, the very greatest ocean depths have been found to be very populous. Plants, on the contrary, do not live in the very deepest waters, and it is supposed, therefore, that the deep sea animals either prey upon each other or get their food from dead organisms and plants which sink to the bottom.
 The phosphorescent fishes, those which light up the waves about them so brilliantly, are found as far as mile below the surface. Most of the fishes found in what are called the "abyssal zones" have only rudimentary eyes Some have only long feelers, but these enable them to grope their way about at the bottom of the sea. On the other hand, there are several ''abyssal" spe- cies of fishes which have eyes so large that they are wholly out of proportion to the rest of their bodies These are supposed to follow their phosphores- cent brethren, which act as beacon lights in the may depths of old Nep- tunes trackless wastes.
 The light of some of these ocean lampposts, which have been brought to the surface by deep-sea dredgers, are 50 bright that during the brief space the animal survives it is easy to read by the light, even though the night be one of f''Egyptian darkness. "-St. Louis Republic.

4 VOICE FROM THE CRAVE.
How q Young ! ady Heard Her fatnefs
specch I'm pbonograqh.

A pathetic story is that told IN cor
nection with the phouograph. Judee
iu . Southern State came to Cinc'nnati
not long ago says writer 10 the Com
mercial. He hai never heard the phono-
graph. When he visited the office he
spoke into the funnel, and was amazed
and amused to hear his owE voice re-
psstsd afterward through the tubes OF
the machine.
Two days after he returned homs be
died suddsnly. His daughter came to
Cincinnati on business, and there . frieod
took her to see . phonograph. 1t was
curious coincidence that she should have
been escorted to the very Office her father
bad visited bot short time before.
The youug woman, who was IN deep
mourning, was very much entertained by
soms OF the musical selections the phono-
graph repeated.
The operator afterward picked up a
cylender from pile, placed 1t IN the
monograph, aid sid: Listen TO this. :
The young woman placed the tubes
again to her ear, the bar wss pulled and
the cylinder begsn to revolve. Before
dozen words had been repeated the
woman iu black swt oned. Not until she
! recovered was the cause OF her fsintlna
known.
Toe voice that had come to her esfs
from the phonograph was that of he'
| dead father. 1t was as a voice from thu
| grave. She afterward purchased
| phonograph, and the cylinder containing
| her fathers speech wss given to her. Il
is carefully cherished in her Southern
home.
