Gen. BooTH's magnificent plan OF a way
out OF darkest England by providing work
for the unhappy submerged tenth" OF Lon
don. seems likely to be wrecked by the diem
ma that has confronted philanthropists for
centuries. and that has ba!acd wiser and moro
tactful organizers even than the courageous
leaders Of the Salvation Army The London
woodcutters are now complaining that they
are ruined by competition with the great
woodcutting business Of the Salvation Army
The dilemma is simple and obvious. but ap-
parently inevitable. II the persons whom
benevolence would help receive material aid
and comfort without return they are pauper-
lied. while IL they are helped to work for q
market they are almost necessarily established
in advantageous competition with unaided
toilers. who suffer accordingly.
The troubles Of Gen. BOOTH only prove
that there is no royal road out Of darkest
England

GARLAND, Ten, May 23-About II o clocl1
last night, while G. W. Crossman, of the
firm of Crossman Bros, was passing their
store, he detected a burglar proving around
inside. 1t took but three seconds to secure
the assistance of G. o. Surber and the city
marshal, with 4 couple of guns. In the
meantime the Gagged bird attempted to fly
through the window, but as he struck the
ground and started to run, shot from a
young cannon in the hands of G.. o. Surber,
followed quickly by three others, brought
him to halt. He plead that he was just
hunting something to eat. He was searched
and locked up. In his preliminary trial he
stated that there were two others with him.
but that they fled at the report of the gun.
He gives his name as James Stephens, and
claims TO hail from st. Louis. He will be
taken to the county Jail this afternoon.

LIVESTOCK COMMISSION MERCHANTS.
CHICAGO, May 10, 1891.
DEAR SIR: Since our last letter, I'VE
have received here about L, 900 Texas cat
tie, 1000 of which arrived yesterday and
1900 to-day. The prices, while almost
steady on Monday, declined on Tuesday 10
cents to % cents on good and 25 to 35 cents
on medium and fair cattle. 1t is very evident
from the condition of the cattle that the
shipments are being made before the cattle
are fat, and If we continue to receive 1900
to 5000 cattle per day from Texas, of tn
class and quality now coming, they will
still decline We are inclined to the opinion
and advise our customers to go little bit
slow and ship only few loads at time, as

There were but very few out at the
meeting of the Board Of Trade, appointed
for the purpose Of receiving a report Of the
committee appointed to investigate the
proposition made by the Aroostook Con
densed Milk Co., and 30 nothing WAS done
We know, however, that s,me members OF
the committee that went to Newport, are
not inclined, in view Of what they can
learn, to advise their friends to purchase
the stock Of the Aroostook Condensed Milk
Co. on the terms offered. Waterville
is asked to pay So 90 for what has been
sold to Newport for Sl,5O, although i. is
claimed that This stock will IN q
very short time be sold for five times
its PAR value, still this company is not,
90 far as can be sscert.ined, in 8
position to do any more than any otter com
pany can do; they are not practical men III
the business. and they neither own nor
control, any thing iu the way Of patents,
that is essential to the business. The
amount of money paid GU. for labor
per day, by an establishment which
would cost $4,000, would, by theis
own statement, am ,unt to but trifle over
$50. There have been opportunities where
= much smaller sum than S25 900, put in
to an enterprise, managed by people right
at home. would have done much more for
Waterville than there is any good reason
for thinking the condensed milk business
will do,

HoIssshoes OF Paper

A new use for paper sgAin appears, this
time reported in the Liverpool, Eogland,
Mercury, and quoted by another journal.
Railroad car -wheelD are now quite often
constructed of paper. 1T would be hard to
make an announcement of . new use OF
that m.terial which should cause any lively
surprise. And yet the introduction Of horse
shoes made OF paper in the cavalry service
of the German Army seems extraordinary
enough to excite interest. Several cavalry
horses were fret shod with paper shoes,
and the effect Vas observed. 1t was found
that not only did the lightnees and elasticity
OF the shoe help the horse on the march,
mskiog it possible for him to travel faster
and further without fatigue than horses
shod wife iron. but that the psper shoe had
the property Of being unaffected by water
and other liquids. l, 10 now proposed to
replace iron with psper horseshoes in the
entire German Army.
The new shoes are made Of q great mum.
Der of thin sheets Of paper pressed on close.
ly together. one above another, and rem
dered impermeable to water by the appli-
cation Of oil of tu,pentine. The sheets
are glued together by sort CT paste COM
posed Of turpentine. whiting, gum and lio-
seed oil, and then submitted to powerful
ny ydraulic pressure Paper horseshoes are
also made by grinding up the psper into =
mass, combining it with tu,pentine, sapd
gum. litharge and certain other substances,
re. sing it, and afterwards drying il. But
these shoes are less tough and elastic n. n
:, oss which are made Of thin sheets Of p,-
PER laid one upon another. The paper
shoes are fastened to the .rse's feet eih-
er by means of n Ails. as in the case OF the
ordinary shoe, o; with kind Of glue COM
posed o! coal tar and csoutchouc. The
G. rman cavalry horses are reported very
bappy AID lively in ihei- new shoes.
