clay seams and water coming in,
and other indications that the

they will carry as good ore in these

The New York Strike.

BUFFALO. n. Y, Aug. 19-The sixth
day of the switchmen's strike in this
city closed with increasing complica-
tons The leaders Of the strike have
witnessed the movement and massing
of troops with growing determination
to meet every advance of their oppo-
neutS with 4 counter stroke.
The leaders OF the striking men said
that all the Vanderbilt roads are tied
up and inactive at this point. In addi-
ton, that the Erie, the Lehigh Valley
and the Buffalo Creek roads are like
wise paralyzed by the strike They
feel that the movement against the
roads has now reached such magni-
tude IL this locality that it may not be
necessary for any men in allied trades
to be called out at this point. The
strikers reserve is a possible calling
out of the switchmen on the Delaware,

remember little boy who. having
heard read some of the prophecies
about the devil in the book of Reve-

see the enemy of mankind so that he
might tell him something that would
make him tremble. One of the best
stories of this kind is that of a little

consequently added to them the fol-

The children's toboggan slide is
quite an institution in a certain nur-
sery. 1t is an old ironing board, a
good wide one. and when its end is
tipped up on chair it furnishes all
kinds of amusement to the small
owners.
The other day the children discoy-
cred new joy in the ironing board.
They placed it fiat upon the floor.
Then they smuggled piece of soap
from the bathroom and soaped the
board well from end to end. 1t made
a famous slide.
The three boys and the girl, who is
the widest boy of the four, gave
themselves plenty of room to run.
and the board was long enough to
make good slide.
One after the other then ran. The
chase grew exciting. Finally Alice,
taking her turn, came with a rush
down the hall and across the board.
The impetus was too much. Her
heels flew up and she came down
hard, very hard.
She gathered herself together with
a bewildered look on her face. Then
she stood up slowly.
Dear mer' she said; ST didn't
know soap was so effective I''-N New

ventiiation bx zinc.

An expert in domestic hygiene as
serts that there should be in every
house at least one fiue connected with
the living room, in which registers
should be placed both at the bottom
and the top of the room; and as warm
air is lighter in winter than cold air,
there viii be through these openings
a constant passage of air out of the
room-and, this being instantly re-
placed by fresh air from without, the
air in the room will thus be kept pure
and sweet. In building the fue it
is advised that, if possible it be in
the same chimney in which a con-
slant fire is maintained, as the fiue
will be warmed by means of this fire,
and therefore will add materially in
causing a draft of air out of the room.

Two Compliments for the Queen.

The compliment paid to our pres
ent queen by the sovereign of Zanzi-
bar is worth repeating 1t is a fine
piece of oriental poetry. He said that
he mentally likened her ito that
mountain of loadstone mentioned in
the Thousand and One Nights, which
drew the nails out of the sides of the
ships which passed that way. Even
so did the hearts of the Englishmen
have hitherto met seem drawn on
by magnet to her majesty A
pretty compliment indeed. The fol-
lowing, however, is still better, if
somewhat grotesque in its tel1nina-
ton 1t is credited to Siamese en-
bassador, who wrote of the queen
thus: "One cannot but be struck
with the aspect of the august queen
of England, or fail to observe that
she must be of pure descent from a
race of goodly and warlike kings and
rulers of the earth, in that her eyes
complexion and, above all, her bear
ing, are those of a beautiful and
majestic white elephant London
