THE full reports Of the Charities Ma
tional Conference at Indianapolis are now
reaching us. We have not examined
any proceedings of any convention where
fest. The papers and debates clearly
disclose that the economy and benefi-
cence Of organization of charities is be-
coming deeply impressed upon the
people. The RECoRD-UNIoN will en-
deavor to present in brief form all the
material facts developed at the conyen-
ton. President McCulloch in his yalu
able opening paper presented the
startling fact that, exclusive of those
in jail, the dependent classes average
100000 outdoor, and 10000 indoor pau
pers annually in this country, while
over 100000 people are supported by
charity, in whole or in large part every
year. This gives us some idea of the
extent of the field of operations. The
direct loss to industry by reason of this
SOAtiIOue1oA Ny II, 10 pItCeu dI SouJVOO;uvV
of productive power, and not less than
$500, 100000 in cost of maintenance
additional. There is not, therefore,
merely a sentimental consideration in
this matter, but one of economies. His
idea is that each State should keep an
accurate register, with constant postings,
of all dependent classes, inmates OF
charitable institutions, etc, with all the
facts concerning them and their support
fully set forth. From this data can be
established a basis for the most economic
policy, and for the best order of relief,
the cost of crime, and the best means of
reducing it to passibIe minimum.

FEMALE MATHEMATICIANs.
A Russian Woman Who Was Ranked
Much Higher Than Miss Fawcett.

When Miss Fewcett surprised al Eng
land a year ago by being bracketed above
the senior wranger for excellence III
mathematics at one of the great English
universities, she attacted wide attention
chiefly because her achievement was that
of woman. much greater than Miss
Fawcett died recently, says the Springfield,
Mass, Republican. This was Nine
Sophie Kovalevsky, the professor of
mathematics at the University Of Stock
holm, who was not yet SO years of age.
Her genius in mathematics was very early
developed; indeed. her professorship was
the ultimate result of her paper on differ
entail equations published in 1888 in the
Journal Fur Mathematik, when she was
hardly wears old Nine. kovalevsky,
was a Russian born IN country town,
her father name being Gen. Krukowski.
She studied at St. Petersburg, and in 1869
was Admitted at Heidelberg. For dis
tinction IN higher mathematics she was
made doctor of philosophy at Gottingen
while she was yet q years old. Meanwhile
the Krukowski girl had become the wife

leontology at the University of Moscow

her genius were In no way curtailed. The
professors death in 1882 left her free to
accept the cffer of the University of Stock
holm. Nine KovaIevshv was still further
honered by the French academy, which
conferred upon her tie 'prix Baudin, "
doubled IN this instance by reason of the
quite extraordinary service" the recipient
had rendered to mathematical science.
This remarkable woman's genius was not
confined to mathematics She has written
few novels which have never been
printed in Russia for the same reason that

be sure, rests upon her achievements in

MARVELs OF MECHANISM.
The Largest Hammer and Anvil in the
World.
Harper's Weekly,


The hammer shop now in process of
completion at South Bethlehem, will prob
ably be regarded as more remarkable for
evidence of power than any mechanical
contrlvances yet constructed by man. 1t
| is here that the plates are to be prepared
for our growing navy. This building in
cludes furnaces and a vast tank for tenn
pering the plates. They will be lowered
| into 1t 10y travelling cranes. The tank is
divided into compartments, enabling sew
eral plates to be treated at once.
lac hammer Is, however, the most mar
velous object In the hammer shop. It was
designed by Mr.. John Fritz, chief engineer
and general superintendent, who has been
connected with the works from the begin
nlrg, and has invented or imp owed many
of the Appliances In use at South Bethle-
hem.
In the designs for the hammer proper
Mr.. Fritz consulted the plans OF LeCreuzot.
following them as far as they met the con-
dltiOns Of construction already adopted.
The entire foundation of the hammer
room is actually laid On what two wears
was the bed of the Lehigh River. which
was detected from Its course, and the an
vii and hammer frame rest on piles.
Above these mass Of cyclopean masonry
has been built, and upon that the anvil is
superimposed, consisting of bed of solid
iron capped by bed of steel. This anvil
represents the trihing amount of 400
tons of solid metal Over the anvil
springs the colossal frame which supports
the hammer. This frame bears cei tain
resemblance il shape to truncated tower
of { fel. 1t springs to height of go

tons are clamped deep in the earth.

Deafness Can't Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an intlamed condition of the mu-
cuous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infiamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an infiamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

DOWN INTO THE DUST.

1t is worth while that we jostle brother
Bearing his load on the rough road of life:
Ii Is worth while that we jeer at each other
In blackless OF heart; that we war to the
knife?
Cod pity US all our pitiful strife;
God pity Us a. we joste each other!
God pardon US all for the triumphS we feel
When fellow goes down meath ;is load on the
heather,
Pierced to the heart! words are keener than
steel.
And mighter far for woe or vail
We're it not well, in this brief little journey
On over the iSlhmus, down into the tide
We give him fish, instead of a serpent,
Ere folding the hands to beand abide
Forever and aye III dust at his side?
Look at the roses salutng each other;
Look at the herds all at peace on the plain;
Man and man only, makes war on his brother,
And laughs in his heart at his peril and pain:
slammed by the beasts that go down OH the
plain.
II isworth while that we battle to humble
Some poor fellow-soldier down into the dust
God pity all! eftsOOn will tumble
All of us together like leaves in a gust,
Humble indeed down into the dust
