NEW YORK AND NEW ENGLAND.

Probably a Vanderbilt COntrpI of the
 Road.
 The Boston Herald says: There is almost no limit to what could be pub lished by way of gossip touching the New York 6 New England deal. But it would demonstrate nothing concluI sively. It will answer-to say that the best private adVices point to a large Vanderbilt investment in the property, probably a controlling investment or at least San investment large enough to practically dictate the policy of the road. Whether President Corbin will re- tire is less obvious. Whether the road will be- delivered as. an independent property and as a third outlet for the New York Central in New England Git already has the Bos- ton & Albany and Fitchburg outIets), or whether it will be operated so as not to interfere with the Boston & Albany and New York, New Haven & Hartford cannot be positively stated. It comes from good sources that the deal, what ever it is, has been arranged. The an- nual meeting on Tuesday will likely shed light upon the subject, although it may not tell the full story. As a speculative factor, this New York & New England affair was a great success

HOW MONEY MAY BE SAVED.
The City Pays Six Per Cent Interest o
 Ita Indebtedness of R2O4 OOO

The City Pays Six Per Cent Interest On
 It's Indebtedness of S2O4,OOO.
 The city of Waterbury has floating indebtedness of $204, ,OO0, on which in terest is being paid at the rate of six per cent. As there is no prospect of re- ducing 1t materially in the near future, it gives the board of finance much con cern. Last night the matter was under consideration at the regular meeting of the board, and f. was decided to recom- mend to the council that power be given them to negotiate a loan or loans at a rate of interest not exceeding five per cent, for a term of years not exceeding five. This would make a difference of S2 900 for every one per cent that the rate can he reduced, and is a move in the right direction.

POLICE COURT.
A Stranger From Bridgeport Taken Int
 Ouod.

OuOds
 In the police court this morning two simple drunks without any trimmings, demanded Judge Bradstreet's attention. the unfortunates and each paid $1 and costs.
 Archibald Montague, a young gentle man from Bridgeport, was charged with being drunk and making false state ments. Yesterday afternoon about o'clock he called upon Liveryman Hall and wanted team to ride about town for a couple of hours. He was well dressed and appeared able to meet his bills, so Mir Hall gave him the rig without further questioning. Half past the liveryman started to look Montague up. In front of the Harvey Brothers saloon he found the team and in the carriage sat an old man who knew nothing of Montague's whereabouts. Constable Egan was pressed into service and found the young man at Champlin's stable. He refused to pay for the team and tried to give the impression that he was as tough as they make them. The con stable took him into custody. In his and how they got there he was unable to tell. The "little joker' had never been heard of He admitted that he had been drinking hard with friends, and that he was drunk, but that he had made no false statement, nor used any impudent language. A pal called to him that he wanted to testify, and told the court he was wholly to blame and whatever it costs he would 'ssquare em." The judge said 8 and costs on each case was the bills

the gloom of night, rising, swelling
resounding cheers merged into one
grand outburst of welcome-all these
were part and parcel of the demonstra-
ton III Minneapolis last night. That
demonstration was an ovation to Daniel
w. Lawler, the man whom the people Of
Minnesota will elect governor next
month-to him and the Democratic
party for which he stands.
Time and again since the Sd day of
last August has the story been told that
Minneapolis would, by the votes of her
citizens, repudiate the nomination of
Daniel w. Lawler for governor. Why?
No one ever attempted to explain. No
one could explain. What is not cannot
be explained. But the story was told
and told again. At last
Minneapolis Arose
in all her pride as the metropolis of
the Northwest and said she would give
convincing proof for all time that none
stood nearer her heart than Daniel w.
Lawler. The magnificent demonstra-
ton to Lawler seen in Minneapolis last
night, the most spontaneous, enthusiastic
ovation ever before accorded a private
citizen in the state of Minnesota, was
the answer Minneapolis gave to the
calumny that she liked not Daniel
W. Lawler. Not like conuueror did
he ride through the streets of this city,
while all around him rose and fell the
cycI0nic outburStS of applause, for
where a conqueror rides the afflicted
will be found and the triumph of the
conqueror is embittered by the fate of
the fallen; rather like much beloved
son did he appear, son chosen by his
people to lead them and guide them, be-
cause they had implicit confidence that
whatever he might do would be we'll
done and done for the people. Caesar
had his triumphs, and SO had Napoleon,
but their triumphal robes were tinged
with blood, and beneath the plaudits of
the populace could be seen the fear of
the lash. A whole cityful assembled to
do honor to Daniel W. Lawler, not be-
cause he had made himself their master
at the cost of pain to them, but because
they had. of their own will. chosen him
to be their leader.
TO Daniel w. Lawler, as the repre-
sentative of the principles of the Demo-
cratic party, this grand reception was
given-to him and to the other master

morals. What is the prevailing senti-
ament of all protection meetings and
speeches? To do injury to others. To
keep the poor of other countries from
enjoying life.
My first vote was for Abraham Lin
coin, against that form sof protection
(which rendered slavery blot upon our
fair country. l am now against that
form of protection which has for its
purpose the making of slaves of the
laboring man!'
When Henry George took his seat
everybody knew what was coming, and
who the next speaker was to be. The
name of Roger Q. Mills was shouted
from all parts of the hall, and echoed
and re-echOed from the packed gal
lerIes. 1t was mills, Mills" on every
tongue, and when Mayor Winston
arose and struck the table with his
gayel the audience anticipated his
remarks and shouted ''Mills, Mlls!"
When through the terrible din and
shouting the doughty Democrat from
Texas managed to make himself heard,
the deepest OF quiet reigned. He was

The Manufacture of shoes.

The essentials of n shoe are the upper,
the sole, the counter or heel stiffening and
the heel. These parts are again subdivided
into the 'vamp'' for covering the front of
the foot; the large and the small quarters
for encircling the ankles, the button piece,
etc. The work of the shoemaker is to pre-
pare and close these various parts of the
upper and the Innings together, to bring
them into the desired shape, to fasten
them to the sole which has been previous
ly cut. to attach the heel and then to give
the various parts the desired finish and
style. These processes indicate the lines
along which machinery had to be applied.
All the operations have been subdivided
to the minutest detail, and in the perform
ance of all of them machines, more or less
satisfactory in their workings, have been
devised. The parts OF the uppers are now
sewed together by machinery, and they are
pegged, sewed or screwed TO the sole by
machinery. Instead of the lapstone and
the hammer for condensng the leather are
now swiftly revolving rollers, and instead
of the patterns for cutting out the sOles
are dies or sole shaped knives set in ma
chines.-George A. Rich in Popular Science

A Terrifying Experience.

I will remember as long as 1 live that
when l was serving as an apprentice was
called upon to join a party of watchers in a
room where the body of a stout old gentle
man lay resting on a cooling board to await
the preparation of a special sized coffin
1t was my duty to accompany one of the
young ladies present, who carried the
light into the room where the body lay,
and occasionally moisten cloth with anti
septic fluid that was spread over the face
of the dead. 1t was Il bitter cold night
and the wind was bowling mournfully
without and creaking doors and shaking
windows AS we passed in before the
body and 1 raised the covering from the
dead mans face my companion acciden-
tally logged the board, and instantly fol-
lowing the motion a low cultural sound
proceeded from the mouth of the dead
body which nearly paralyzed us with
fright.
My companion shrieked. 1 imagined
saw the lips move and the eyelids culver;
the cold sweat oozed from my forehead in
huge beadlike drops. All the watchers
came in and an investigation ensued. 1t
was only the exit of some air in the body
that was started by the shaking of the
body on the board, but it was a terrible
ordeal to me, 1 can assure you.-Interview

To Prevent Diamond Stealing.

At the South African diamond mines the
system employed for the prevention of
theft is highly elaborate. The workmen
are hired for a certain term, during which
they are imprisoned, when not engaged at
their labors, in a compound. Every night
each man is obliged to divest himself of
every stitch of clothing, which is carefully
searched before he puts it on again the
next morning, and he receives blanket
to cover himself with. Previous to dis
missal at the close of their contract, the
laborers are subjected to a physical exam
ination of such an ignominious description
that no white man would endure it.
The laws make the punishment of dia-
mond stealing severe as for homicide.
Nevertheless, the De Beers company counts
upon losing 10 per cent. of its output by
robbery, and dealers in stolen sparklers do
a large business through the neighboring
aal.-Interview in New York Sun.

Roman Sausages.

The Romans were very much addicted
to sausages made at Lucania. The meat
used was pork and good quantity of ba-
con- pounded in a mortar, with pepper,
cummin, winter savory, and moistened
with garum, to which were added few
pine nuts. 1t has been pointed out that
the Romans when they used breadcrumbs
took care that the bread should be of the
very finest kind, and that before it was
mingled with the sausage meat it should
be soaked in wine. This was most sensi-
BILE precaution against the contingency of
the bread passing through a sour stage OF
fermentation, in which case it would be
undeniably unwlolesome.-London Tele-
