Care of Gold Fish.

Special Correspondence of the Globe Dem
ocrat.
There lie one matter connected with
the care of goldfish which is very
necessary to their proper health, ano 4,
in fact, TO their own existence. They
came originally from the warm waters
of Japan, and most people knowing
this. consider that II they are care
full of the temperature OF the water
and feed them constantly, this is suffi-
Client. The changing of the water,
however, is more necessary than any.
thing else. When these little creatures
were introduced into the manufactur-
ing districts OF England and placed in
ponds formed by hot water from steam
eDgines-the water retainining q tenn
perature of about s0o-they thrived
in a remarkable manner. These
ponds were formed because Of an in
adequate supply of cold water for con =
densation, it IL said, and were made
to catch the water and cool it for re-
newed use. These fish served good
purpose In consuming the refuse
grease In the water which would
otherwise impede Its cooling, and
hence were gladly secured by the
owners. Their healthy and thriv-
ing condition was due as much to
the supply of pure air as 1t was
to the temperament of the water.
This necessity for pure air Is one of
the secrets in goldfish care that
many ladies have not yet learned
There Is only one way TO give this
pure air, and that is by constantly
changing the water. Fish secure fresh
air from the water as 1t passes
through their gills and then exhale
IL in to the water again. After awhile
the water becomes poisoned by this
exhausted air. 1t is perhaps unnec-
essary to add that each change of
water should be made of the proper
temperature before the fish are put
into it.

Some Records Broken.

Nancy Hanks the wonderful animal which
has broken all records for trotting horses,
lowered her record again on Sept %
at Terre Haute, Ind, over regulation
track. The animal trotted the mile in exactly
2.04, and she went the quarters in 81, 314 299,
and BIZ respectively. Robert Bonner offered
5000 to any one who drove a trottng horse
over regulation track in less than 205 and
soon after Nancy Hanks made her great run
Mr.. Bonner was notified. He viii pay the
sum promised.
On Sept. 90, at the same place, another rec
ord-breaking feat occurred, when Mascot paced
the fast mile heat of the free for-al class in
2.04, the record of Nancy Hanks made the day be-
fore. Flying Jib forced the other geding out aud
the quarters were 324. 81, 291, and 81 seconds.

General Wauamaker, and the work of printing

The Cholera.

The cholera-scare has we'll nigh subsidized.
The Health Department of New York on Oct.
issued bulletin to the effect that as there
had been an entire absence of cholera from the
city since Sept. 19 there would be no more
bulletins issued. At that time there had been
no suspected cases reported within the last AZ
hours, and there have been mono up to this
writing. The reports from lower quarantine
are very satisfactory, all patients doing well,
and there being no new cases.
It is said that the aggregate number of
deaths in Russia prior to September were
174,000 according to the official accounts. but
that the real number was 100000. In Hamburg
the deaths are rapidly decreasing in number.
1t is estimated that there have been over 1900
cases in that city since the epidemic began.
The health authorities of this country assert
that cholera has been overcome for tho present.
They do not say much about another fear which
they have. They really very apprebensive
that the disease has only gone into hiding, as
it were and that it will appear again next
Summer. DR.. Edison, of New York, says that
all danger will not have passed until another
IL months have gone by. The precautions will
DO kept up during the Winter by the health
authorities and rs soon as the warm weather
comes again the same vigilant preparations
will be made that were adopted when the
cholera reports first began to alarm the coun-
try.

The Big Naval Display.

It is expected that the celebration in New
York City in honor Of The 4G0th anniversary Of
the discovery OF Amorica will far surpags any.
thing OF the kind ever before attempted in this
country. For the great Naval parade of Oct
II the management has already received re-
quests for position III the line for $50 vessels
and as these matters are never closed up until
the very last moment1many more ships are to
be expected.
The Naval parade will be divided into two
sections, the parade proper and the ascorting
feet. The former consists of the ships OF the
line and the others Of the civilian contingent
The men -of-war will. form i'll two lines dowr,
by the Narrcws ana proceed up the bay headed
by the torpedo boat Gushing. The United
States fest will be under the command of Com
modore Evans. In order to provide for the
needed condition of the tides the Commoa ore
will get under way at 1890 o'clock. Directly
after this line will come six steamboats,, on
which will be STATIONED the Naval Committee,
invited guests aud ,he'Committee OF One Hun
dred Statutes will bettired on passing the Bat

The Columbian Postage Stamps.

1t has been decided by the Postmaster Gen.
eral to issue series of stamps TO be known as
Columbian series of postage stamps. The con-
tract has been made and signed, and the Amer
lean Bank Note Company, of New York, will
the series have not as yet been fully deter
mined upon, but they will embrace all of the
present series and probably some others. The
new stamp will be of the same hight as the
present series, but twice as long, the increased
size being thought necessary in order to prop
eriy display the illustrations They are in
tended to commemorate the discovery of Amer
lea by Columbus, and several of the illustra
tons have been already decided upon. These
are the Discovery of America by Columbus {"
first sight of land "Columbuss Fleet at
Sea-" from Revsta de la Mariana; Landing
of Columbus" after the Van der Lyn picture
in the United States Capitol; The Santa
Maria" Columbus's flagship after Alfred
Harissee; Columbus Asking Aid of Queen
Isabella"; Columbus Reciting the Story of
His Discovery to ferdinand and Isabella on
His Return from His First Voyage" On one
of the determinations will appear portrait of
Columbus.
1t is expected that the entire series will be
put on sale Jan. l. 1893, and during the sue
ceeding year will entirely supersede the pres
ent series. IT is expected that the net revenue
to the Government from the sale of these
stamps will be very large, and that their sale
to collectors will largely exceed any previous
issue. 1t is also believed that this issue will
greatly stimulate interest in the Exposition
both abroad and at home.

Russia in the Berin2 Sea.

The Captain of one of the British Columbia
sailing vessels seized by Russia in Bering Sea
went to Ottawa, Canada,t on Sept 81,
for the purpose of furnishing the Gov
crnment with affidavits of its seizure. He
states that he understood the Russian Lam
guage, and while prisoner on board tie Rus
sian sunboat learned from the con yersation and
actions Of tho Russian officers that they were
instructed to make only pretense Of selling
American vessels, the real object being TO as
sert such rights in Bering Sea as would ma
terialy assist the United States in the approach
ing arbitration. Be this as it may, cablegrams
regarding these seizures are passing daily be-
tween the British and Canadian Governments,
and the sending of British gunboat to the
scene is regarded as ominous. The contingency
is certainly contemplated of war between
Russia and England. and il these seizures and
the consequent violations of the treaty Of 1926
between Russia and England are regarded rs

Russia, the possible consequences to Canada are

Peaks Trial.

The case of Labor Commissioner Charles F.
Peck is slowly dragging through the courts.
Civil proceedings brought against the Com
missioner were pnt over for another term.
These were to decide whether the papers in the
Bureau of Labor Statistics are to be considered
as open to public inspection. To-day one of the
two criminal charges pending against Mr.. Peek
came up-that of having destroyed public
documents, especially those used i'll the compila-
ton of the Commissioners last annual report.
The counsel for the defense moved that the
charge be quashed and Judge Cluto announced
that he would reserve his decision regarding
the motion to quash the indictment until Mon
day next. On Oct. 2 it was announced that
Commissioner Peck would explode another Of
his bombs. This one is an addition to the re-
port recently issued. 1t is continuation by
which he shows the increase of wages of vari-

Frauds Alleged in Louisiana.

Great frauds have been proven in the matter
of the direct tax refunded to Louisiana by
General Government. The State officials have
made researches and are perfectly satisfied that
frauds have been committed. Gov. Foster has
in his possession the rolls containing the lists
of the direct taxes refunded to the Commits
sioners of the State by the Federal Govern
ment, and the com parison of these rolls with
the receipts given at the time of payment
by the collectors show glazing discrepancies.
In nearly every instance there is difference
of $4,000 or 1000 between the tax receipts held
by the citizens and the sums entered the
rolls. 1t is believed from the cursory examin-
alton made into the matter thus far that the
people of the State were robbed of hundreds
of thousands of dollars by this means during

story Of Mrs. Montrose, Beale has committed
a great number Of murders IN this city The
woman says thas Beale used her house for 10
months as private hospital. During that
period he had about so patients, and there
were no fewer than 40 children bora alive in
