The Army and It's Head.

The army consists of ten cavalry
regiments, five artillery, twenty-five
infantry, an engineer battalion, re-
cruiting parties, Indian scouts, the
West Point academy, a signal corps
and the hospital service. Its total
strength is about q, 500 men, divided
approximately as follows: Cavalry,
$500; artillery, 1900; infantry, 49,
900; the West Point academy, 500;
engineer force, 400; the special serv-
ices, 5000. These are occupied in
garrisoning the various forts, arse
nails and supply stations in the coun-
try and in overawing turbulent In
dams. Scarcely 1000 of them could
be concentrated to serve in one body
outside the boundaries of the republic.
The head of the army, General
Schofield, was born in Chautauaua
county, New York, in 1881, gradu-
ated from West Point in 1853, and
became professor Of physics in Wash
ington university, St Louis, in 1860.
He was commissioned brigadier gen
eral of volunteers in 1861 and served
through the civil war, rising to the
rank of major general. He took
part in Sherman's march to Atlanta
and opposed Hood at the battle of
Franklin. In 1868 he acted as secre-
tary of war.-Daniel D. Bidwell in

A Possible Help for Woman.

Darning stockings, with the at
tendant horrors of mending and sew
ing on buttons, represents batch of
work which comes regularly every
week to be done, and is sore trial
to the woman who longs for the time
it takes that she may give it to better
things. Yet she knows these tasks
are necessary, and that they must be
accomplished for the comfort and
well being of the family in her
charge.
Now there must surely be plenty
of women who cannot do finished or
high class work, yet to whom mend
ing and stocking darning, clearing
up of rooms and busting would be
light and agreeable work, women
who, having ample time, would be
willing to do such important yet
trivial housework for the small sum
of money the service is worth. They
need not be highly educated or very
young women; they need only be
willing, quick and ready to do well
any and every trife which comes up
for somebody to do. There are Ger
tainly plenty of places waiting for
Just such workers.
We hear much of the women who
are starving in making shirts at
three cents apiece and trousers at
five cents pair The tales are too
well authenticated to be doubted
But surely the work above suggested
would be easier, pleasanter and more
profitable to the women who are
keeping soul and body together on
such a pittance as that-Harpers

A Murder in Iceland.

A murder has been committed in
Iceland A young fellow has killed
his betrothed in fit of jealousy, The
whole of the 10000 inhabitants of the
island are deeply moved by the event.
1t is fifty six years since like deed
was done We here in America,
made callous by the constant recur-
renee of crime, cannot realize the
horror such an event inspires in the
simple Icelanders, among whom
crime is as rare as learning is general,
who, without school boards not sell
dom understand several languages,
whose richest man boasts of no more
than 81, 500 year, and among whom
abject poverty is unknown. - Yankee

A Woman's Letter to a Congressm,

"A Woman's Letter to Congressman.
Most congressman are overrun with
letters and dispatches from people
whom they never heard of, asking
for documents, books, stationery, etc.
The sublime gall displayed by some
of these citizens is truly wonderful,
but l think the woman who sent the
following postal card deserves the
cake:
DEAR SIR-Being referred to you
by the first assistant secretary of the
interior department, saying that you
would get for me all the public docu-
ments which are published for distri-
button and information, please send
me all such documents of every de-
partment and branch thereof of the
United States government. Also as
complete set as possible of penalty
envelopes and cards and wrappers.
will you kindly send me as com
plete set of stamps as possible from
every department of the United
States government, and specimens of
the general issues of the United States

they come, and any other curiosities. "

An Earthquake at Sea.

Two distinct quakings of the earth
and consequent disturbances of the
sea We're felt by the schooner Charles
L. Mitchell on Monday night, three
miles southeast of Cape Henlopen.
The Mitchell arrived at South street
wharf from Cuba with a cargo of
sugar, and Captain Frost told the
story of his experience, His vessel
was slowly beating her way up the
coast under easy SAIL when she fell
in with the tug Mum and was taken
in tow for Philadelphia. The wind
at the time was light from the north
east and the atmosphere hazy, but
clear overhead Captain Frost had
taken in all but few light sails and
the vessel was heading north, with
both canvas and steam, toward her
port of destination.
Suddenly two terrific reports. like
explosions were heard, then a rum
bling sound, as if the vessel was
grinding her bottom out ON a shoal.
She trembled and spun about on her
keel as if about to be lifted bodily out
of the water by an unseen power. 1t
was first thought she was fast on
rocky shore, but it was found that
the observations were correct, the
vessel being well off shore and in the
deepest water. Those on the tug
Mum thought that one of the bulk
oil carriers had exploded, but the
rr,mbling noise and the period of
time through which it extended after
the first explosion proved conclusive
ly that the report was of a different
character, doubtless from earth
quakings. Philadelphia Record.

This year of grace, 1892, will bring
to each of us experiences unforeseen
by any. But the good Lord, whose
providence is over all, has foreseen
them, and has ordered them for our
good Jesus Christ, the same yester
day, today and forever, is our source
Of hope and peace, and we may seek
to take each day as he sends it to us,
not unduly curious or careful of the
future. May he adjust that future
to our eternal blessing, and conform
us to his will. Forgetting the things
that are behind, as Paul sought to
forget them, let us press toward the
mark of the prize of our high calling
in him, bring the new year what it
may. The most varied dispensations,
if they find us diligent at duty doing,
will mature to sweetest fruition in
the end. Moravian.

Ancestry of Dogs,

Cats and dogs have varied an
cestry," said naturalist. People
commonly imagine that in speaking
of dogs they are referring to single
species which has many varieties
But in reality the name is merely a
conventional one, under which are
grouped in popular parlance all Of
the domesticated canida. The North
American coyote is in fact much
nearer to the greyhound, geological
ly speaking, than the pug is. 1t is
simply wild dog. So is the wolf
likewise. From just such wild types
mans faithful four footed friends
are descended. Washington Star.

How Water Is Preserved in the Cobb Desert
In that enormous waste known as
the Cobb desert, north of China,
showers sometimes fall during the
summer, and the torrents of day
fill the dried up water courses through
which water seldom runs. 1t is in
these channels that the Mongols dig
their wells, expecting to find little
water, when upon the surface of the
plateau itself the soil has lost all
traces of humidity 1t is owing to
the fact that part of the moisture
falling during a few rainy days is
thus preserved within reach that it
is possible for caravans to cross the
desert, New York Sun.

After Many Years.

A North Berwick doctor was sur
prised the other day. Several years
ago he aided a needy family in town
not only with professional services,
but with groceries, etc. Later they
moved away and were partially for
gotten. But they had not forgotten
the kindness, and the other day a
lady came to the doctor, recalled the
events and asked for the bill, which
she paid, and then added ten dollars
as present. That family evidently
were of the deserving species. Lew

Memory,s Impressions on the Brain.


1t is computed by leading physiolo-
gists that, since one third of a second
suffices to produce an impression on
the brain, a man of 100 years must
have collected on or in his brain mat
ter 9,467, 2SO,0 impressions Or,
again, take off one-t third of the time
for sleep, and we still find 6.3l1, 500.
600.
This would give 3, 1876, go, 900 sep
arate waking impressions to the man
who lives to the age of fifty years
Allowing an average weight of fou1
pounds to the brain, deducting one
fourth for blood and vessels, and an
other fourth for external integu
ment, it may be said that each grain
of brain substance contains not less

Behold the saints, beloved of God,
Washed are their robes in Jesus blood;
Brighter than angels, 10! they shine,
Their glories splendid and sublime.
Through tribulation great they came;
They bore the cross and scorned the shame
Now in the heavenly temple blest,
With God they dwell; on him they rest.
While everlasting ages roll,
Eternal love shall feast their soul:
And scenes of bliss, forever new,
Rise in succession to their view

in any form would be misinterpreted by
the public and result in detrlment to the
union.
A letter from P. J. Concannon stated
that he was being injured politically by
the circulation of report to the effect
that he ran q non-union restaurant, and
he wanted the committee that waited on
him regarding his difficulty with the
White Cooks and Walters Union some
time ago TO certify that the report was un-
true. The report Of the committee at the
time was that he employed non-union
dishwasher. the union being unable to
furnish him a union man. and the secre-
tary was instructed to certify the fact to
Mr.. Concannon to prevent the blighting
Of his political future.
Frank Grady presented credentials as
delegate from the Lineman's Union and
Herbert Raymond from the Boot and Shoe
Clerks Association. The credentials were
accepted and the delegates seated.
The committee on arrangements for the
Labor day celebration reported that the
fire department and platoon OF police
would turn out in the parade; that the Sc
attic and Tacoma Navigation Company
promised rate of one fare for the round
trip between here and Tacoma, and that
everything was arranged with the excep-
ton of some of the minor details.
The reports from the different unions
showed varied condition OF work in the
different lines. Tailors and shingIe weav-
ers were the only trades reported good.
The building trades were reported fair and
the cigarmakers dull.

A PARTY WALL SUIT.

uasearet Harmon Sues the Estates Of
The Late Captain and Mrs. Renton.
Margaret Harmon brought suit yester-
day in the superior court against Maurice
NtNicken, executor of the estate of Sarah
LRAnton, and William Campbell, exc
catwd the estate of William Renton,
both deceased, to compel payment of
$2lnNalleged to be due as one-half of
the eostM party wall which was erected
by a alleged mutual agreement
The complaint alleges that in Septem-
ber lS6a. u agreement was entered into
between Nsrgsret Harmon, the plaintiff,
and the late Captain and Mrs. Renton
that whoever built on either lot 5 or 6. of
d. Msynard's plat of the city of Seattle,
frst should erect thereon q party wall for
the joint use of both parties, and that the
ether should pay one-hslf tho cost of the
same. The plaintiff owned lot 5 and Cap
tam and Mrs. Renton owned lot 8. The
former built first and erected substantial
party wall at cost Of 1885 20. Accord
Ing to agreement the plaintiff alleges that
NE notified the owners of the adjoining
los OF what she had done, and also what
lhe party wall had cost to erect. She
claims that they took no notice of the mat
ief, and that on May Il. 1890. Mrs. Renton
died and on July Is, 1891, Captain Renton
departed this life. The plaintiff alleges
Inst she then filed her claim with the ex-
ecutors Of the two estates, but that they re-
|ected the same. Hence the suit to re-
rover the amount alleged to be due.
