viciously on Langdon, "what do you
mean by denying completely? Do you

himself under his breath.

sternly.

The London Chronicles St. Peters
burg correspondent says it is reported
that the flour recently bought by the
municipal authorities, which was
found to be adulterated and totally
unfit for use, was originally intended
for export, and if it had not been for
the decree prohibiting the expectation
of flour, the fraud might never have
been discovered. A thousand wagon
loads of corn, which was sold by
large exporting firm of the town of
Samara, has been found to be similarly
adulterated.
The explosion at Dublin Castle has
brought out many theories to account
for the affair. The conservative Or
gans as rule have placed the respon-
sibility upon the shoulders of the
leaders of the "physical force" party,
and this has had the effect of drawing
from Mr.. Michael Davitt letter to
the London Times for publication. In
this letter, Mr.. Davitt protests that it
is cowardly for the Times to insinuate
that the explosion might be traced to
his friend Ford. Mr.. Davitt says that
it is more probable, as the Times
friend Pigott is dead, that the paper
has another agent to preach the gospel
of forgery.
Mayor Grant, of New York, in his
annual message, speaks of the Colum-
bian Exposition as follows: "The
Columbian Exposition, or Worlds
Fair, to be held in Chicago next year,
appeals to the patriotism and to the
business interests of the people of
New York. Though we still regret
the loss to this city of the Worlds
Fair, we have substantial interest in
its success in the city selected to be its
theater. The metropolis of the conti-
nent, and the empire city of the Union
should be fifty represented"
The United States Supreme Court
has rendered a decision in favor OF
Northern Pacific Railroad Company in
the mandamus suit brought against it

rel Hiram Dustin, prosecuting attor-
ney of Yakima county, to compel the
railway company to maintain station
and stop its trains at Yakima City,
the county having built town al
North Yakima and refusing to sto
trains at Yakima City. Justice Gray
rendered the opinion of the court.
Justices Brewer, Field and Harland
! dissented.

ramrods, such as were used in loading
the muskets Of twenty-five years ago.
The material was hard and could not
be cut, so small wheels of iron, about
six inches in diameter and one inch
thick, were used. They were driven
at 5000 revolutions per minute, and
melted or abraded the metal away
instantly, at the same time drawing
the temper, so that screw thread
could afterward be cut on the end OF

READING BY LAMP-LIGHT.
Pertinent Points on This Pornicious
Practice.

On the scare of the Eyes" was the
title of an article 1 was much inter.
ested in recently, says Robert ]. Bur.
dette in the New York Herald. My
memory is neither so accurate nor SC
imaginative as it was a score of years
ago, but the article in question runs,
as near as [ can guess by memory,
something like this:
"Haye a reading-lamp for night
use" There is a great deal of wisdom
in this. In brightly lighted room
at noon, or as late as 3 o'clock p. m., =,
if the room be on the sunny side of
the house, a person with strong eyes
may be able to read coarse print with.
out injury. But after 9 o'clock at
night, and in a very dark room, most
people will find a lamp indispensable
to comfortable reading, especially in
fine print or paper. The learned
physician who writes the article does
not say that the lamp should be
lighted, but, speaking as layman, /
should certainly advise lighting the
illuminator may be wrong in this,
but nevertheless such has been my
own custom, and | can now read a
circus-poster in two colorS without
the aid of glasses, that is.
"Hold the book at your focus"
This is rule that any person able to
read should commit to memory. Very
few people realize the importance of
this aid to preserving the eyesight.
Until | read this valuable rule used
to prop my book up on the other side
of the room, where | could not distin-
guish the print from the margin, and
try to read. l did not suppose it made
any difference about the focus. And
many people, have no doubt, who
supposed they were blind because they
could not see to read book at a dis.
tance of $50 yards, will, upon learn.
ing this rule and putting it into prac-
tice, soon find that they can read
quite we'll enough to drive everybody
out of the room. The medical pro-
fession has been very remiss in its
duty that it did not publish this rule
long ago.
"Reading in bed is strongly advised
against; it is injurious" | should
say so. | have always found it so. If
you get comfortably fixed you read
about one page and then find the
blooming book isn't cut, and the pa
per-cutter is downstairs, and your
pocket-knifc is in the pocket of your
trousers, hanging away over near the
coldest window. The colder the night
the more the book is not cut. You
get settled down again, and the lamp
smokes. You fix it and drop back
again. The pillows you piled up have
fallen down and your head comes
crashing back against the headboard
of the bed. 1t is late at night and
the bang brings somebody out into
the hall with shrek of "What's the
NATTER" After awhile order is re-
stored and you get quiet then inter-
fsfed, finally absorbed, and then some
