Has Not Kent the Contract.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15-H. G. Frick.
chairman of the Carnegie steel company.
was at tho navy department to- day by ap-
pointment to discuss with Secretary Tracy
the matter of steel deliveries for naval con-
struotion. Much, if not all the delay in the
com pletion of new naval vessels has been
caused by the fact that steel of the peculiar
quality required for armor has not been de-
llvsred in sufficient quantity to keep pace
with construction. The secretary feels that
the difficulty lies in an insufficient plant
for tho production of steel, and is directing
his attention to the subject. To-day Friok
told him his company intended to meet the
reuui, ements of the department and had
arranged to purchase and erect u large
quantity of new machinery and open
other mills.

ing prepared at the treasury making i'm
portant change in the present immigration
policy. 1t is in effect that the presidents

Pearl Divers of Western Australia.

During three years spent on the coast Of
western Australia l never knew an in.
stance where an aborigine had been broken
in to work in diving dress, their objec,
ton to it arising from some superstition.
The greatest depth at which pearl shells
were found in payable quantities when
left, in 1888, was eighteen fathoms, and the
main portion of the diving is now done by
white men and few Mongolians.
Dress diving is by far the most approved
method, as the diver can remain under
water an hour or two if he chooses, can
dive much deeper than the natives and is
able to work all the year around. The
style of boat universally used for this work
is the lugger, which is good seaboat and
easy to handle. 1t ranges in size from ter
to twenty tons, is filled with air pumps and
carries a crew of six men and diver.
The crews are almost entirely Malays,
who are brought down from Singapore by
the regular steamer Australind, which
runs up and down the coast and supplies
the pearlers with provisions, etc, and by
which the shells are shipped for the Lon.

The Story of q Famous Phrase.

Identical thoughts and identical forms
may be original in many minds. The ora
ton of our day which has taken its place
among the few classics of eloquence is Lin
coins short speech at Gettysburg. The
phrase most often quoted from it is that
government for the people, of the people
and by the people shall not perish from
the earth" Porter's Rhetorical Reader
was published in 1881. In 1889 it was in its
ffty-second edition From this edition
quote the following sentence for an 'exer'
else" entitled New Social Order in Amer
ica" and credited to one Douglas: 1.-The
European emigrant might believe himself
as one transported to a new world, gov.
erned by new laws, and finds himself at
once raised in the scale of being-the pau.
per is maintained by his own labor, the
hired laborer works on his own account,
and the tenant is changed into proprietor,
while the depressed vassal of the old con-
tinent becomes co-legislato~ sss8 .o-ruler in
government where eD r"rV is from the
people and in the people and for the peo'
pie"
The idea is not new, though this premar
ture Douglas may have been the first to
put it into this form. When Porter pub
hshed these selections of prose and poetry
Lincoln was twenty-five years of age and
beginning to read law. 1t is possible that
he may have read this very piece in a
schoolbook which was widely circulated,
and that this phrase may have stuck in
his memory. 1t does not matter. The
phrase in his mouth is as pure as a gold
coin just dropped from the mint; it was
his genius that set it in an immortal ora
tion.-Charles Dudley Warner in Harper's

An Onion Remedy.

A favorite remedy for a cough is strip
made by alternating slices of raw onion
with white sugar. Cuta large onion, hori-
zontally, into thin slices, put one in dish,
sprinkle sugar over it, then add another
slice of onion, building it up thus by layers
until all are used. Cover the dish. About
once in three hours teaspoonful of sirup
will have formed, which should be taken
at intervals of about this length through
out the day.-GOod Housekeeping

A German Device.

A new departure in the methods Of
flltering a public water supply was
recently devised for use in the City
of Worms, Germany, and is now in
successful operation. The water for
this place is drawn from the Rhine
River, and was formerly filtered by
passing it through large beds of sand.
1t became necessary to increase the
purifying capacity of the plant, ow-
ing to the growth of the city, and as
land was expensive, the superintend-
ent of the works, DR.. f. Fisher, ac-
cordingly advised a system Of stone
slabs, formed by heating clean river
sand with silicate of lime and soda,
which cemented the parts together,
through which the water filtered.
Each slab was 81 feet square and 4
inches thick, with slight cavity on
one face In order to use them an
area of about 1880 feet was parti-
toned off from the existing filter
bed by concret wall. On this area
978 of the stone slabs, having SUI
perficial extent of over 10, 500 square
feet, were arranged vertically in
groups of two stones, joined with
their recessed sides together and the
edges made water-tight. The slabs
are extremely porous; they are said
to absorb water like sponge, and the
filtration takes place by allowing the
water to run into the basin and sur
round the slabs. 1t then passes
through the stone to the hollow with
in, whence it is drained off to the
clear water reservoir and pumped to
the city. In case bacteria were to
lodge in the pores of the slabs, pipes
have been so arranged that steam can
be injected into the interior of each
pair of stones, "a method which the
authorities in charge of the works
regard as highly efficacious and mex
pensive. In this way engineers, not
nymphs, have answered the famous
query of Coleridge:
But tell me nymphs what power divine
Shall henceforth wash the River Rhine?
