fatally shot.
It is estimated that at least 1000
shots were exchanged, but owing to
darkness most of the men fred at ran
dom
The white strikers precipitated the
battle by making the attack. After
the fight, and when daylight came, the
negroes were crazed with q desire for
! revenge, and threatened to go down on
! the fats blow up the mines and kill all
the white miners, who number 1s5, and

A Potato Revolution.

In Wolgast, town in Prussia, a riot
was nearly precipitated on account of the
high price ofpotatoes. The dealer asked
SIX and a half marks for one hundred
pounds, which price the buyers consid-
cred too high. The excitement became
so great that the buyers, mostly women,
assaulted the farmer, who was finally
compelled to leave the market place.
The same scene occurred when he tried
to sell his stock at another place. Count
Bismarck Bohlen, who heard of this oc-
currence, sent next day two wagon loads
of potatoes to the town with orders to
sell them for 50 the hundred pounds.
This is not the first potato riot that has
taken place in Prussia. In 1847 tn, popu-
lation of Berlin became so excited about
the high prices OF potatoes that some peo.
pie, for the greater part women, seized
the potatoes, theY,sham in the cutters,
and attacked the deGlers. some CT whom

the butcher and baker shops. until the
police apd the military dispersed the
crowds. Over three hundred people
were arrested, of whom 200 received
punishment. Several of the rioters were
sentenced to Imprisonment from three to
ten years, No: York Recorder.

A terrific thunder storm came on q
recent night, and one terrible crash
aroused the household. All were stunned
for moment but, recovering, they hast.

Suddenly the younger Vandyck pointed
to an old fashioned sofa. Upon it lay
what was apparently the silver image Of
cat curlei up in an exceedingly COM
Portable position.
AS far as the shape and posture of the
animal were concerned it might have
been live cat, each glittering hair was
separate and distinct, and each silvery
bristle of the whiskers described a grace

In one of the p.les of glass in the
window was found a round hole about

There was charred streak across the

its way to the sword, down which it had
passed to the cat, carrying with it the
silver which it deposited upon the AMI

"Japan wax" as it is called, is OBJ.
tanned from tree, the Rhus Succedauea,
which grows in Japan, China and tho
East Indies. The japanese call it Hale,
or Haze. The tree commences to bear
fruit when five or six years old, and in
'creases its product every year, till, at the
age of fifty years, Il single tree will pro-
ducc $50 to 400 pounds of berries, from
which seventy to eighty pounds of wax
can be obtained. The wax is formed in
the middle of the berry, between the
skin and the seed, like the pulp of a
grape. 1t is extracted by boiling the
berries in water and allowing it to cool,
when the wax separates from the akin
and seed, sinking to the bottom Of the
vessel in a solid cake. The specific gravity
of the wax is 0.970. and its melting
point 131 degrees Fahrenheit. 1t is
largely used, either alone or mixed with
tallow, by the Chinese in the manufac-
ture of candles. This tree should not be
confounded with the ''tallow tree" of
China, which has pith of solid tallow
in all trees that have fully matured.-
