Experiments in the making of arti-
fetal clouds for the preservation of
plants from the effects of frost took
place yesterday in the Jardin d'Accli-
matation, under the auspices of the
Agricultural society. Masses of resin
u matter in boxes of pinewood were
set alight, and soon gave off dense
volumes of smoke. This was expected
to produce the required nebulosity, but
it failed to rise to the level of the stu
alton, and was blown away in the d.
rcction of the seal pond. Experiments
of a similar kind have been tried with
more success in the Gironde vineyards.
The proceedings in the Jardin d'Accli-
matation were watched by several staff
officers, who wished to see if the new
invention could be utilized for military
purposes, such as the masking of ex-
posed troops or batteries in time Of wal.

4 Woman Hotel Cashier.

The Holland House has made an inno-
Walton. Guests were surprised recently
to see IL young woman, scarcely more
than IL girl. behind the cashiers desk.
The Holland is the first horrl in the city
to employ Il woman cashier in the main
Office.
There is one other hotel in the country
that employs a woman cashier. This is
the Palmer House. Of Chicago.
Miss Li-ettc McEvuy is the name of
the Young woman who fills the place
here. Since the opening Of the Holland
House last October she has been cashier
i'll the hotel restaurant. In this position
she gained popularity with the guests
and won the esteem of the walters. She
is IA mite of IA miss. weighing less than
II hundred pounds. She is a pro-
nOunced brunette. and her dark brown
hair is worn in fluffy puffs on the top and
back of her head.
The position Of hotel cashier is IA heavy
responsibility fora little woman not over
twenty years of age. She has to do all
the dealing with the porterS. IA duty that
''rattles' and calls forth curses from the
strongest and most patient of men cash

be calculated to reform the manner of
the belligerent porter. Personally the
clerks Of the hotel admire and like Miss
McEvoy, but they cannot help >peculat-
ing rs 10 how far the innovation will be
carried.
Miss McEvoy's hours are six one day
and twelve the next, keeping her at the
desk every alternate day until midnight.

ChtckWeed Sellers in Paris.

Il Is strangely suggestive Of the ups
and downs Of life to read that among
the members of the society OF chick
weed sellers in Paris there are q large
number OF persons who were formerly
in a much higher condition. 1t may not
be generally known that the humble
itinerant chickweed seller of Paris
boasts of "A syndicate, which, III default

tons. At a recent meeting the question
had to be decided whether what are
known as '.colifichet" men-that is to
say, itinerant vendors of a species of
light cake for song birds-should be ad-
mitted into the society, and the votes
were taken in this way-those who were
for their admission put a cork in a bas-
ket, those against it put in an onion.
The corks, Oh being counted, proving
superior in number to the onions, the
"colifichet" men were proclaimed men,
bers of the society of chickweed sellers.
In connection with the subject it is
mentioned that among the members of
this very humble corporation are to be
found two doctors, II lawyer, four
chemists, two manufacturers, twenty
nine wine merchants, process server,
four jewellers, nineteen brokers, eight
Srocers, two coppersmiths, four clock

Many women have discussed the stu

Mrs. Osborne, and none express any
thing but pity. Her treatment by the
authorities after Mrs. Hargreaves had re-
fused to prosecute is enough to convince
one that the circumlOcutiop office de-
scribed by Dickens has not been abol-
ished. Said a lawyers wife at II tea the
other afternoon:
MY husband does not understand how
such a condition Of affairs can exist.
Mrs. Osborne, it is true, stole the jewels
and committed perjury to escape detec-

A curious ease is that of an American
girl who has been serving as engineer in
a big laundry not far from the corner of
Wells street and Lincoln avenue. This
girl began work in a laundry, and while
thus employed often watched the engi-
neer at work, now and then asking for
a bit of information about firing up"
stocking" banking" the boiler, the
gauge. etc. One day the regular engi-
neer went off, and his place could not
be filled right off. SO this girl, then
about eighteen, offered to supply his
place temporarily until another suitable
person could be engaged. She did the

mirably and showed such u~nlnistakable

According to IL special from Muncie,
Ind, which is the center Of the Indiana
natural gas fields, the number Of chance
discoveries has just been added to hy
one which will he Of immense inpor-
lance in the industrial world. The story
is that Il few days ago II service pipe
line Of natural gas had frozen near Mill
Grove. To remedy the stoppage IA joint
of the pipe was detached. 1t was found
that the Joint was filled with ice, and
n of the workmcn pounded the pipe
and a cylinder of ice about a foot long
came out. One of the worlimen said
j~estingly. ''Well, there's some ice which
ought to burn"
Some one then suggested that fire be
applied to the ice. The ice caught fire
and burned like a torch. SO thoroughly
was it ~ilmpregnated with the natural
gas. The burning gas furnished heat to
melt the ice, and asst melted it liberated
the gas, which burned as tierccly as if it
had been coming out of a pipe.
All present were amazed at the phe-
nOmeIlon. and it was at once suggested
that the discovery might prove of I'M
mems value by rendering it possible to
freeze natural gas into blocks which
could be sent ont for Use as fuel. 1t
seems that the ~congealing had taken
place under II pressure of 800 pounds to
