The Place and Time of the First Third
Party Nominating Convention.
The joint committee of the Peoples
party and the St. Louis Industrial con-
ference has issued the following call:
To the People of the United States:

NJ. Ni. Garrett of Illinois. John Seitz OF Ohio,
Mary E. Lease of Kansas, Anna l.. Diggs OF
District of Columbia, Anna Debbs of Texas,
A. p. Parksen of Florida. and Ben Terrell OF
Texas, representatives of a certain meeting OF
members of various organizations of this coun-
try held in the city of St. Louis, on the oath
day of February, 1882, respectfully submit to
the people of the United States the preamble
and platform of the conference of said labor
organizations of our nation, held on the I'D,
23d and 24th days of February, 1892, in the city
of ST. Louis.
We urge that all citizens who support these
demands shall meet on the last Saturday in
March next, in their respective towns and vii
lagos, and hold public meetings and ratify
these demands, and take steps to organize pre-
paratory to electing delegates to a national
convention, and we call upon all duly qualified
voters of the United States who are in favor of
these principles and of nominating candidates
for president and vice president of the above
platform to send delegates to a convention Of
the Peoples party, to be held in Omaha, July
4, 1892, at 10 O'Clock in the forenoon.
The executive committees of the Peoples
party in each state are charged with the duty
of promulgating this call and of fixing the
time, place and method by which the said
delegates shall be chosen.
The basis of representation shall be four del
egates from each congressional district and
eight delegates at large from each state. max
ing the total number 1,776.
We call upon all citizens of the United States
to help us to make our principles triumphant.
We believe that if the voters neglect their
duty this year it may be impossible in any fu-
ture canvass to protect the rights of the people
and save the free institutions of our country.
The voters must protect themselves; they can
expect no one else to defend them. In the
name of the rights of the people, the homes of
the land and the welfare of all future genera
tions, we call upon all honest men to come to
our support in this great contest

San Francisco nIarket Review.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 16.-The market for
dairy produce is again in most unsatisfactory
condition. Dairymen have stopped packing
and the receipts are altogether too large for the
demand. The prices are downward in ten
dency. Choice ranch eggs are in good demand
with store eggs neglected.
The fruit market is in better shape. The de-
mand is fair and prices steady. Strawberries
are in good demand and command good figures
Cherries are arriving more plentifully, and are
steady in price.
The vegetable market showed considerable
activity, at lower prices, this morning. The
prices for most varieties are weaker, owing TO
heavy receipts Peas and rhubarb particularly
lower. New potatoes also have a.downward
tendency.

Good Advice,

If peoplelearned to live, eat sleep and
clothe themselves intelligently and
reasonably, and to curb their imagin-
ations, the days OF medicine would be
well-nigh past, or so soon as inherited
defects should be outgrown., Two
thirds OF all the supposed human dis
eases are imaginary. The quack>d doc
tor, and the quack medical advertise
ments, i'll various forms, work upon
the imagination. Longlists OF "symp-
toms" are set forth in way to catch
the eye and lead the Imagination
astray. \ person weak, or weary, or
suffering from effects of improper food
taken IN an improperly prepared con-
dltlon or III undue quantity, has dis
ordered imagination, and it is Just
that con dition to be caught by these
spccious displays OF symptoms. :"

How Fishes Breathe.

T0o" EtStSS OTSdItlSs
The severe frost of last winter froze
many rivers and lakes in England
that are usually open all the year
round, and gentleman who found
small fishes dead wrote to Nature to
ask, "How is it with the fish in coun-
tries like Siberia? Do they desert those
parts OF the rivers which are frozen
over, or are the currents more rapid,
SO us to transfer air beneath the ice
from unfrozen parts, or, as in some
glacier streams, are fish altogether alb
sent?'
Any one who has caught fish through
ice three feet thick on Maine ponds
will understand that fish live very
comfortably so long as any part of
the pond remains liquid. The .ters
OF Siberia are likely to be abundantly'
stocked with fish, which will be found
in the best condition when their house
is sealed with frost.
1t Is not necessary to suppose that
air is carried under the ice from open
places i'll the brooks. There is alr
enough in the water at all times to
answer the purposes of the fish The
presence OF the air is best discovered
by allowing water slowly to become
warm in q vessel OF tin or iron. The
all, which is held in the water very
much as water is held in a sponge, is
expanded by the heat and may be
seen gathering in small bubbles at
tached to the surface OF the vessel
This must be a matter of common OBJ
ServatiOn.
1t is this air that supplies the fishes
with breath. 1t may be thought by
some persons that fishes breathe wa
ter, for the writer has heard this state
ment made; but such a view is not
correct. The fish has no power to de-
compose water and get the needed OK
ygen from that source.
AS he is constituted he needs very
little air. He is furnished with but
little blood, and this is sufficiently on
idized by coming in contact with air
in the water forced through his gills,
which are his breathing apparatus.
The effect of the air is seen when the
fish is taken from the water. The
gills suddenly redden. This is due to
the rapid oxidation OF the blood. The
fish is killed by the excess OF air. In
the water he gets only the proportion
that he needs. Altogether the fish
must be very comfortable under the
ice during our hard winter.

Items Of Interest.

Many names OF materials in COM
mon use have queer origins. Nickel
was first obtained as q metal from
Germany over a century ago, but the
ore had been previously known to the
miners as kunfernickel, or old Nick s
copper, because, although it looked
like copper ore, they could obtain no
copper from 1t.
Electricity is employed in Be- lin
cafe to boil coffee a platinum wire
passes in spiral form through several
glass jars, the electrical current quickly
raising the water contained to boil
ing point, and the coffeeis thus pre-
pared in the view of any one in the
room. A small electric railway con-
veys the coffee to the several tables,
SO that the guests may help them
selves to their liking.
A Louisiana electric light company
is having made for it what is said to
be the largest belt in the world. It is
made OF two thicknesses of leather,
consisting OF the skins OF IT'S animals,
andis feet wide and 169 feet long.
The services of go men, for a period
of two months will be required to
complete it, and it will when finished,
weigh two tons. The entire cost OF
the belt will be about $4,000, or
nearly $40 per square foot.

Visible Sound,

The idea OF getting a visual express
sion for musical vibrations occurred
to Chladni, Il physicist of the last cen
tury. He fastened plate of glass
by its center, and then, having scat
tered some sand over the surface,
threw it into sonorous vibrations by
means OF Il violin bow. Imagine the
delight with which he saw the sand
stir and form into line on the plate,
forming a star OF twelve rays Square
plates OF glass or metal screwed or
even glued to central support can be
made by the mercst tyro with tools,
and give wonderful results. A plate,
like string, has one rate OF vibration
which belongs to 1t, but again like a
string, by 'danlpening" it with a
touch OF the finger or fingers in differ
ent points along the edge the note
changes and with it the figure made
by the sand. The lines on the plate
where the sand settles are the nodes,
the lines OF comparative rest. The
violent agitation in the parts LETT bare
can be shown by mixing a little lyco-
podium powder with the sand; this is
excessively light, and is caught in the
little whirlwinds OF air generated
about the vibrating segmcnts.-Cen-
turS.
