THE REGISTRATION.

The registration books closed last
night and showed q net gain of nearly
700 votes over last election. This pre-
cipitates a new element into the cleo
ton pending and past records will be
no criterion of the vote on November
9Th. That is to say il Msricopa county
gave an average of $50 majority to the
Democratic ticket last year, which it
did not, there is no indication that she
will not give twice that much to the
Republicans in the present contest. OF
course the new vote is OF all COM
plexions but there is reason to believe
that by far the greater per centage will
be cast for the Repu blican ticket. This
presumption is based on careful
estimate made among a number of
new arrivals.
Heretofore the immigration TO this sec
ton has largely been from the southern
states where they grow Democratic ma
jorities by irrigation all the year
around. But in the past eighteen
months, we have had large influx OF
sturdy settlers from Kansas, Pennsyl-
vania and other northern and eastern
states who are equally as tenacious OF
their Republican principles.
With this new element in the fight
neither side can claim anything with
out working, but the odds are really in
favor OF Republcanism and better
government.
With the splendid ticket which the
Republicans have in the field and the
certainty OF great additions to their
ranks it would not be at all surprising
to see Maricopa county fumigatsd and
regenerated this fall.

The boys were suspicious that Prof.
Spire had formed the habit of going
upstairs every evening about $3.50
o'clock to creep along the halls in his
stocking feet and listen at the doors.
They thought, however, that his case
was not incurable If strong measures
were taken. They made their pre-
parations and then waited in silent
expectation.
When Prof. Spire came out Of his
room and began to mount the stairs
a cold, galvanized tack penetrated
his very soul. He uttered subdued
howl of agony and sat down on the step
above to investigate. But tacks
were there also, and they began to
investigate before he did. He rose
with promptness, and this time the
howl was not subdued. Doors flew
open and anxious faces looked down
from above.

a garment called blouse is, / un-
derstand, much affected at present
by those ladies who aspire TO be in
the mode. One recommendation OF
this garment is, am told by compe-
tent authority, its cheapness. Some
Of my lady readers may be interested
to know at whose cost this cheapness
is attained. There exists at 142
Lansdowne road, London Fields, a
workshop for tailoresses and needle
women, managed by committee of
ladies, and partially supported by
subscriptions.
To this establishment a well-known
London firm recently sent parcel of
blouses, or "Garibaldis," to be made
up. Each garment was cut in q
pieces; The workers, or in this case
the workshop, had to find hooks and
eyes, needles and cotton. The price
offered for each garment was AID. To
make each one would take about four
hours work. After deducting the
value of needles, cotton, ETC., wo-
man could not earn more than Is. 3D..
at this work in 16 hours. What price
these garments are retailed at l do
not know, but l TRUST that none OF
my lady readers will In future buy
one merely on account of its cheap
ness. Those who do may well be-
think themselves Of Hoods lines:

Night Lamps.

No house should be without glim-
mer Of light at night-a light suffi-
cient to prevent cropping and STUN
bling about in Egyptian darkness If
one is obliged3to rise. This is espe-
cially true of homes where there are
little children. The idea that chill
dren are in any way benefited by be-
ing made to sleep In absolutely dark
rooms is untenable. II the light be
sufficiently subdued and of a sort to
leave the air quite pure, it Is hard to
see any harm in it. Gas turned low
is never safe, as the fluctuations in
the meter may make 1t go out. An
ordinary kerosene lamp turned low is
at all times an abomination. Little
night lamps, costing % cents, with
quarterback wicks, filed with pure
oil and carefully trimmed, can be
turned up to their full height with
out giving too much light or emitting
any Odor.

Like many others who have attained
eminence of some sort or another
when they have arrived at maturity,
Mr.. Gladstone had the Wegg-like
habit Of dropping into poetry in his
early years, and very Indifferent
poetry it was, too, as the volumes Of
the Elton Miscellany remain to testify.
It was no better, and 1t could not
well be worse, than the Juvenile verse
of Mr.. Ruskin, which that singular
author, or his foolish admirers, will
not willingly let die. Here is speci-
men Of the youthful verse of Mr..
Gladstone, and if we were to consider
it curiously it might almost be said
to indicate his political future-at
any rate, his political sympathies. Its
hero is the hero OF one OF Southey's
early epics-we think 1t was an epic,
but it may have been tragedy-Wat
Tyler, concerning whom the Glad
stonian muse thus delivered himself:
ODE TO THE SHADE OF WAT TYLER.
Shade of him whose valiant tongue
On high the song OF freedom sung;
Shade of him whose mighty soul
Would pay no taxes on bis poll;
Though swift as lightning civic sword
Descended on thy fated head.
The blood of England's boldest poured,
And numbered Tyler with the dead
Still may thy spirit flap its wings.
At midnight, DER the couch OF kings;
And peer and prelate tremble. too,
In dread OF nightly interview!
With patriot gesture OF command,
With eyes that like thy FORCES CLEAN,
Lest Tyler's voice and Tyler's hand
Be heard and seen In nightly dream.

About Matches.

The Oldest, and, it is said, the
largest match mandatory in the
world is in Sweden. Matches were
made there long before the old,
roughly trimmed splinter Of wood
tipped with sulphur was discarded
with the finder boxes, for which they
were used. In twenty-five years the
export trade of Sweden in modern
matches increased ] 900, 900, 900 boxes
year.
Some of the machines for making
matches which we use in these days
make 200 revolutions minute each,
and turn out about $500, 600 matches
daily. Rather more than five matches
per head for the whole population are
used daily in the United States.
Strange to say, the quality Of these
Swedish matches, in many cases, Is
so bad that the state intends to re-
sumo the manufacture, and computes
that the profits will produce reve-
nue. of 81, 000,0 900. Altogether, there
are in Europe about so, 900 factories,
and they yearly produce matches val
ued at $4,000, 900. - Philadelphia

snake, to Eat tho rabbits.

Among the many strange and as
founding propositions for the settle
ment of the rabbit question in Aus
tralia, one of the latest comes from a
genius in South Australia, to turn a
lot of carpet snakes loose among the
rabbits, which would, it is asserted,
be speedily eaten up by the reptiles.
The correspondent also furnishes some
remarkable data regarding the feed
ing capacity Of carpet snakes. When
from five to six feet long they are, he
says, able to eat two or three rabbits
at meal; but when fifteen or sixteen
feet long they are able to eat six
rabbits. Anticipating inquiry as to
what would happen If the snakes be-
came more numerous than the rab
bits, he proposes that carpet snakes
Of one kind only should be used, and
after eating the rabbits the snakes
would then proceed to eat each other.

Better than Ship Canal.
A ship canal would undoubtedly serve
the same purpose II that purpose was to
bring vessels from the Georgian Bay to
Lake Ontario, but the great object in
the handling of freights to-day Is speedy
transit, and that ship canal cannot
give. The great objection to a ship
canal, in fact to all canals at the pres
ent day, is the loss of time not only in
locking vessel through but the slow
progress that is made in a confined
channel. 1t would take almost as long
to bring a vessel from the Georgian
Bay by ship canal as 1t would take for
the same vessel to sail around by the
long route. The difference in time

extract from London Engineering for
Feb. 1, 1884, discussing the effect of
navigation in a confined waterway, gives
scientific confirmation to our statement:
"It is a universally recognized fact that
vessels steer better, are more easily
propelled, and are altogether more man
ageable when moving through a capa-
cious waterway. The vessel in motion
has to be forced through the water, and
the particles are pressed one against the
other and in confined spaces against the
bottom and the sides. Thus a great
frictionis Kept up, which reacts against
the hull, deadens her speed, and at the
same time prevents an equitable flow Of
water to her rudder, and, in the case of
a screw, TO the propeller also, and as a
consequence the vessel becomes un-
manageable.
