TORIES IN A RAGE.


Their Sentiments Expressed In an Bdi.
toriai In the Saturday Review.
LONDON, July 16.--The Saturday Review
thus voices the almost unannous feeling
OF the Tories who are smarting under de-
feai at the polls;
The extreme narrowness Of the recent ma
jo; Il .es on the Liberal side dictates q policy
Of opposition without mercy to every Liberal
mt dsfer seeking reelection, and to every gov
poscl with q chance Of success. There 10
nothing due TO the present opposition, which
has alreadn~been utterly unecrupulous. II
anything were due, 10 would he cancelled by
the principle Of duty to the country. Never
he ore has a party attained ONCE pledged 10 d
measure which is fraught with certain danger
and possible ruin.
Mr.. Gladstone's party Is q thing of shreds
and MATCHES. Its contingcnts are two Irish
parties which have been trying TO extermin'
ate each other at the polls, and which would
gladly exterminate each other on the pave
ment; and labor party which only agrees
with itself In Avowedly fighting with its own
hanl In Its own pocket. and which is at dag.
gers drawn with every other party and with
Mr.. Gladstone himself Against q party SO
constituted, every attack not disbonorable is
lawful II the Gladstone government ever
gets anoat, IL will start with dotinr egotism
In tie captains cabin, double dealing and
Office seeking on the quarterback, and greed
and ignorance In the forccastle. Every
mothers son among the Unionists deserves
noggnx II he does not do his utmost to sink
bnIn and DESTROY such craft as this.

)OESN'TTHiS PUZZLE YOU?

Two Persons May Be Born and Die To-
gether and Yet Have Different Ages.
Two persons may be born at the same
place and at the same moment exactly,
and yet, after fifty years have rolled
around, they mey both die at the same
instant, and still one may be more than
a hundred days older than the otheI.
1t is simply a curious astronomical and
geographical fact, very easily proven. A
calm refiection.shows this oddity turns on
a very obvious problem in circumnaviga-
tion.
Suppose, now, that two persons were
born at the same Instant in this city, from
whence trip around the world may easily
be made I'm one year: II one OF these per-
sons constantly goes towards the West In
fifty years he will be fifty days behind the
stationary inhabitants; IL the other sails
equally as fast towards the East he will
be fifty days ahead OF them.
One, therefore, will have seen 100 days
more than the other, though they were
born at the same instant, lived continual
ly In the same latitude and died toget her.

One OF the new bloomer cars was put
on regular trips this afternoon. The new
cars are beauties and are longer than tho
box cars. They will seat forty comforta-
bly,. They are nicely furnished, have five

to the Benedict House this morning.
Reporter Rex took his team of "colts"
upon the cricket grounds yesterday after
noon and practiced them in throwing

attired in a black, sleeveless jersey and
abbreviated pants. The rest were in citi-

not in the game. Rex has some curves
that puzzle the best of them and il Quigley

won. The work of Lee and Hornby
showed that their record this year will be

New YORK, July l6.-R. q. Dun & Cot
Weekly Review Of Trade says, In all di
rections the business outlook is fairly en-
couraging. The crop Is much more fav-
orable than was expected, the great labor
controversies do not affect business ur'
favorably, but even helps 1t for the pres
ent; the anti.option bill makes no pro-
gress, the silver bill has been defeated,
and there Is now small prospect Of any
legislation by congress that Is likely to
disturb business in any department.
Crop reports promise results not equal to
last years, which would be disastrous, but
beyond expectations With the decrease
of only per cent, the wheat yield would
be fur beyond the quantity consumed In
any year. except the last, and nearly
equal to last years consumption and ex-
ports. Boston reports good trade, with
boots and shoes particularly active, and
many demands forquick delivery. Leather

Dexter Street Improvements.
Dexter street Is to he widened this
Summer. The commission on relay has
nearly completed its work and will soon
be able to render report to the Council.
This is an improvement long needed,
but it is not the only thing necessary. A
wider street will be great benefit to the
business men and those residing on the
street, but will not make the locality any
more healthful.
What is wanted now, is a sewer. This
would improve the health of the COM
munity and make residence there more
desirable. Now is the time to have the
work done.
While the street is torn up for widening
is the best time to complete the job and
put in sewer large enough for the needs
Of that section.
1he drain must bc large one as il will
be he main one for the Western district.
sewers from all cross streets, having been
built, would lead to IL and thus drain the
whole section.
The cost will naturally be large, but it
will be worth all that is paid for it. In
order to get this improvement petition
must be sent to the Council requesting the
same and this has not been'done.
The abutters on High street petitioned
the Council Monday and this petition
was granted. II the Dexter street people
want sewer they must do the same.

Warren Kaufman, late of Boston, will
not get as much out OF the estate of their
late grandparent as they expected. Mr..
Kaufman had two children, one the
parent Of the grandchildren, the other q
son Henry, who went away about fifteen
years ago. and, as he had not been heard
from at TIE time his father died, the
probate court found that he was legally
dead, and in June entered decree for the
dist ribution of his fathers estate am ong
the grandchildren. The money was about
to be distributed when the missing son
put in an appearance, and Justice Morton
in the supreme court was asked yesterday
to reverse the decree OF the probate court
In order that Henry may get his share.
All persons concerned agreed that the
claimant was the long lost son. The
amount of the estate was about 5000.
This Is the second case that has occurred
within few months In Suffolk county
where lost heir has turned up alive.

WEIGHING BY STONE.

ment

The Origin of This Method of Measure
ment.
Measurement Of weight by the "stonc"
arose from the old custom farmers had of
weighing wool with a stone.
Every farmer kept large stone at his
farm for this purpose. When dealer
came along he balanced plank on top of
a wall and put tho stone on one end and
bags of wool on the other until the
weights were equal. .,..
At first the stones were of all sorts OF
sizes and weights, with the result that
dealers who wished to make living had
to be remarkably knowing in their csti-
mates Of them.
But the many Inconvenience evolved
by this inequality eventually resulted in
the stones being made OF uniform
weight. a..
