Dry Goods.

NEW YORK Dec. IG.-There was an improved
general demand for dry goods, and q moro
active special movement In bleached commons.
Buyers and the market To some extent have been
waiting for some tune for price TO be made on
Lonsdae bleached shirtings. This was done to-
day, and q few other lines followed, though the
action has been quietly discounted by some
agents. The following revislons were made:
Lonsdale A bleached shirtings, S4c; Lonsdale
Is, 7l4c; Blackstone, &c; Hope. &c; Fitchvile,
6 loc; foreign Forget me not, &c; New York mills
A bleached shirtings. 10l4c. The reductions on
tho Ionsdale cambrics made 10c. The
movement seems TO satisfy buyers, and relieves
the market from suspense. few other reduc-
tions may follow. These reductions occur upon
comparatively light stocks.

Harrison at Work Again.

President Harrison resumed his OF.
fetal duties at the White House on
the 10th. There are number oil
important questions pending in each
OF the executive departments and il
is the Presidents purpose to dispose
OF them as rapidly as possible. The
Behring Sea question requires imme.
date consideration and the President
will devote his attention to that first.
with the view of having the Govern
ment's policy in regard to seal fisher
les so far as the present season is
concerned, clearly defined. Pending
the final settlement of the controver.
sy, by arbitration, it is probable that
the sailing orders Of the revenue cut
ters assigned to duty in Behring Sea
will be issued this week. The illness
OF Secretary Blaine may necsssitate
slight delay in the preparation of
tho instructions, but 1t will be only
temp orary.

During Levi Aliens recent visit to
Weiser he related many interesting
and curious facts about the Seven
Devils country; among others the
discovery Of queer snakes. In the
Peacock mine, away down under the
gravel, he once stirred up singular
reptlle-of the serpent species flesh
oolored, with the tail apparently cut
square off. Mr.. Allen first thought
the tailless condition OF this speci.
men was due to some accident, but
upon mentioning it to some of the
boys in camp they informed him that
one had been discovered in the Lock-
wood mine under such conditions that
they did not see how it could possi-
bly, get there from the surface. Is
this genus some relic of a previous
epoch, trapped and confined by con-
vulsion of nature, or is its natural
habitat the interior of the earth's
rocks? Let some naturalist answer.

Look Out for Big storms

Foster, the St. Joseph weather
prophet, is out in three-page letter
IN which he predicts the most terrific
storms, commencing in June and run
nlng for year, that have been expe-
rlenoed in the United States for fifty-
nine years, or since 1882. The ele-
ments are to play smart with hurri-
cane or cyclonic twisters. Next win
ter will set in by October aud be the
awfulest cold spell of weather ever
experienced except by the very aged.
1t is all to come of electrical distur-
Dances brought about by the equl-
noxes of Saturn and Jupiter, the first
occurring next October and the sec
ond in January.

Henshaw, of the Anthropological
Society of Washington, declares that
the languages of the Indians of this
country, of which there were fifty
eight linguistic families and three
hundred languages and dialects, north
OF Mexico, at the time of the discov-
cry of America, are none of them re-
lated in any way to Asiatic tongues
also as to the origin OF the Indian, it
must have been in ages SO far re-
moved from our own time that the
interval is to be reckoned, not in
years of chronology, but by the ep-
ochs of geologic time.

Secretary Rusk, speaking of the
Presidential excursion, said it was a
wonderful one. Especially crafty
ing was the reception in the South,
but the great American public was
enthusiastic from the start to the fin
lsh, and if the good folks on the route
omitted any courtesy it would be
more than he could do to discover
the gap. "The feature of the trip
that impressed me more even than
the popular enthusiasm" said the
Secretary, twas the remarkable ora.
torical ability of the President. He
made greater number of first class
speeches in month than many pub
lie men could think of and deliver in
lifetime, and his efforts were not all
prearranged, for some of the best
things he said we're spontaneous.

The cordage manufacturers of
Champaign, Illinois, claim to have
substantially solved the binding Irvine
question for the farmer of the west.
One OF the proprietors of the cordage
company, in all interview, said:
we are prepared now to manu-
tacture all Irvine for the next harvest
for which we can obtain material.
We use nothing but American hemp.
think we have now proven that
there is not the slightest excuse for
importing either the Irvine or the ma
terial to make it. We shall raise
5000 acres of hemp this year our
selves, and the farmers in this coun.
ty will raise about 5000 acres more,
50 that we shall need to bring from a
distance the product of only about
1000 acres. That is, we can manu-
facture the raw hemp from about TO-
900 acres. The next harvest will re-
quire about lo0,00o,000 pounds of
Irvine, and it would require about
100000 acres of graund to produce
the amount of hemp necessary to
make it. We have demonstrated
that the farmers can grow this hemp
more proftably than they can raise
corn, aiding in the reduction of the
corn surplus and thus helping the
Turner on both hands"

will also be used Doth in the exterior
and interior decoration of this really
palatial building.
The last view is perspective looking
south through the lagoon between the
manufacturers building and the cleo
trical building. On the extreme right
is seen part of the east front and one
of the towers of the electrical building.
Beyond this is seen the eastern facade
of the palace of machinery, with its
domes and towers. A long colonnade
connects this building with the agri-
cultural building In the hollow square
thus formed rises u tall obelisll. To
the extreme left is seen corner of the
manufactures building. The center of
the picture shows the lagoon spanned
by graceful bridges which connect the
terraces surrounding the buildings. On
lower terrace are beautiful gardens,
and sea-walls confine the waters of the
lagoon.
This view represents part of the
grounds where the buildings are most
thicl1ly clustered where distances are
at the minimum and where the per-
spcctive is the least extended. Impos-
ing as it is under these circumstances,
some faint notion of the magnificent
vistas which will be afforded in the
great exposition may be gathered.

Some old philosopher has said that in
nine cases out of ten, when man was
thrown constantly in the society of one
woman, he would end in marrying her
But there are some exceptions to this
general rule. and a notable one is to be
found among the class of shop-girls
who are employed in the big retail
stores uptown. Said the manager of
one of these Establishments: 1T IS
popular idea with the public that our
female employees find husbands among
the men in the store, with whom they
work every day, but it is not true.
Most of the girls who marry select their
mates from a class of men who are in
some other and more remunerative
business. The principal reason for this
is TO be found in the fact that the girls
soon become imbued with sensible
ideas in regard to the life of those who
have to work for living. A girl soon
finds out all about the man who works
at the same counter with her, and
knows that he earns but little more
than she does herself. Matrimonial
bliss on salary just sufficient for one
has no temptations for the average
shop-girl." - Pittsburgh Commercial
