The Potato in Place Of soan.

There is a great deal of cleansing
bower in an ordinary Irish potato. In
|nany laundries boiled and mashed pota-
|oes are used to produce snowy white
hess, and more than one camper out who
las found himself without soap has
ALLEN back ON potatoes as substitute
nd washed out handkerchief and shirts
Nth them. As matter of fact, pota-
pes will remove stains which refuse to
held to soap, and the chemical action is
|huch less injurious to fabrics.-Ex-
shange.

The Sunday opening of the worlds
fair is beginning to receive the atten-
ton of great many women in vari-
Gus parts of the country, among them
some of considerable note for intelli-
gence and moral worth. 1t is on rec
ord that twelve of the ladies of the
board of women managers of the
worlds fair exhibit have made a
strong protest against the closing law,
leaving only one of the members in
favor of it. The effect of this femi
nine crusade against the Sunday clos
ing will no doubt be the arousing of
the woman friends of the law, and
will create a furore that will extend
from one part of the country to the
other. 1t is not likely, however, that
the closing clause will be repealed.

OCTOBER FIRES.

October was a pretty lively month
for fires as we'll as politics. The New
York Commercial Bulletin shows that
the total 'sfire -loss'' of this country
and Canada was $13, 349, 200, as against
$13, 21S, 300 in the October of 1891, and
81 ,279, 800 in the October of 1890. That
is to say, the destruction of property
by fire during the month just past was
at the rate of little more than $780,,
619 day.
1t has been the costliest month of
the year in this respect, January com
ing next with a total of $12, 564 300.
The total for the first 10 months of the
year is sos, 341 ,55O-about million
less than was burned up in the cor
responding months for 1891, and near
ly 1913, OOO, 900 more than vanished in
smoke in the first ten months of 1890.
The number of October fires destroy
ing $4,000 worth of property and up
ward apiece was $50. The biggest was,
of course, the Milwaukee one-$3, S75,-
600. There were six others that made
a record of 5000, 900 or over and 16 that
crossed the 800, 900 line withoutreach-
ing the 100000 one. Cleveland had
more than it's share of the loss-$243,-
900 in one fire and $21O, 900 in another.
In view of the exposure of the cities
on the shores of the great lakes to
high winds, the Commercial Bulletin
advises the underwriters to offer these
cities the alternative of improving
their fire departments forthwith or
paying higher rates for their insur-
ance.

ABOUT SILVER.

The decline in the price of silver,
which has fallen lower than ever before,
is causing a serious disturbance in the
financial and commercial affairs of In
dia and presents a problem to the Brit
ish government full of grave difficulties.
1t is not hard to find reasons for the de-
cline, but how 10 meet the changed con-
ditiOns which it involves and avert the
troubles which it threatens is not so
easy a matter. The United States is
quite as much interested in this subject
as any other country, but nothing can
be done regarding it for at least six
months. The treasury is powerless, the
law absolutely requiring the purchase of
so much silver monthly, so hat the gov
eminent must go on purchasing ever if
that metal should continue to fall. The
situation gives more than ordinary inter-
est to the conference soon to be held TO
consider the silver problem, but as that
body can do nothing except to recon-
mend a great deal may happen in the
way of unsettling financial affairs before
any practical result from its deliberations
may be reached. Meanwhile the down
ward course of silver offers a lesson for
the careful attention of those who urge
that the United States should adopt the
free and unlimited coinage of that metal.
Suppose that policy were now in opera
ton, can there be any doubt that there
would pour into the country a flood of
silver which our minis could hot handle
in the next five years, but which coming
here would have the effect to drive gold
to a premium and out Of circulation

THE GUN CASE.

There is much about carrying a con-
ceaIed weapon that should not be allowed.
\ man may carry a gun with perfect
satety-another may carry a gun and do
much mischief. In the case of WILL
LIAMs there was a glazing discrepancy.
The law says that a man should be fined,
for even carrying a concealed weapon.
The mayor has fined men twenty. FIVE
dollars for "toting" a pistol all it takes
is a complaint and the law is plain.
But in WILLIAMS case it seems that
he was not fined for Juggling the shoot.
ing iron, although he had resisted two
officers.
There was of course some reason for
the light fine which was imposed and the
people would like to know what the rea-
son was. Perhaps they will find out. in
due time.

the improvement in its character which
began when Mrs. Kate Epson Clark be-
came its editor. The September issue
will be the first of a notable series of

different nations, at least half of the
stories in it being from the French.
Special numbers devoted largely to
stories from other foreign languages will
follow. The November issue will be a
