French POliteness.

Suppose French politeness is a myth,
1t is n to be cultivated the world over.
Even the humblest peasant in the small
est province is endowed with an all con-
quering courtesy that is brought into
play in the most commonplace matters.
If u men could only be taught some Of
it, how much more easily would run the
wheels of LIES machinery! Business is
business, of course. The rush and worry
Of money getting dwarf the real nature,
yet at the same time stocks would act no
more i~rregularly, bills would be no less
ready to be paid. panics would occur no
more frequently if the arbitrator Of
great affairs would but remember to
bring into their business life q little more

courtesies that are the flowers in q mead

Manufacturing Bank Notes.

A new principle has been suggested in
the manufacture Of bank notes. If a
sheet of paper be plunged into a mixture
of various coloring matters, each color
will penetrate into the fiber with a diff
ferent degree Of speed, each brand hav-
ing a distinct color. It would be impos-
sible to initiate these effects without an
exact knowledge of how the mixture CT
colors was made. If a drop of the mix.
tureof colors be allowed to fall on a sheet
Of paper, a number of rings, each having
a determined size and shade, will be de-
veloped, and thus imitation will be rem
dered even more difficult.-New York

Peter wal either a large key or two keys
crossed, which is readily explained by
referring to the words Of Christ (Matthew
xvi, 19), And | will give unto thee the
keys of the kingdom of heaven" The
emblem Of Paul was a sword and a book
the latter to remind the beholder that
he was a teacher of men; the former to
indicate that he was beheaded with a
sword. st. Andrew was usually figured
standing by a cross shaped like a letter
x, that being the form of the cross upon
which legend says he was crucifed. The
emblem Of st. James the Great was
either a mountaineering to the fact that
he was also beheaded-or a pilgrims
staff, he being a great traveller.
st. Johns emblem was a caldron, re.
ferring to his experience in the boiling

The Best Language For Telephoning

The French language, it appears, is
better adapted to the purpose Of the tele-
phone than the English. 1t is stated that
the large number of sibilant or hiss syl-
tables in English renders it . less easy
and accurate means of communication.
Some English words are especially diff
cult of transmission by telephone. the
word soldier is cited as one Of these.
Proper names frequently in le

be spelled out, involving delay.-Elec-

A SOCIAL BOOMERANG.

The Recoil of the Efforts of a Coterie of
Reputation Runners at Newport, II. L.
a Notable Instance OF the Bitter Being
Bitten.
NEWPORT r. T., July 30-Society has
delicious morsel Of gossip to tickle its
palate with just now. Recently false
and malicious statement regarding a
well-known and popular young New
Yorker was printed. The victim has
filed high positions in the gift Of his
state and has served the nation
abroad in the diplomatic service. BY
implication a well-known society lady,
also of New York, whose character is
above reproach and who moves in the
gilded circle, was brought into the
article. The New York weekly
paper publishing the innuendo
was brought up with round turn, and
one of the owners or managers, for a
consideration, it is said, divulged the
name of the author of the scurrilous
article. A New York lawyer was con-
suited by the young man who had been
SO grossly assailed. Then followed
sensation. The correspondent wom-
an, proved to be a well-known member
of society. She was threatened with
criminal prosecution. The aggrieved
party, however, calling to mind the
fact that the woman, who was
the secret correspondent Of the paper,
had often been visitor. and a
welcome one, too, at his home,
relented and he contented himself with
a duly signed confession, the woman
in extenuation of her conduct giving
the names of several prominent society
women, who for personal motives, had
given her the information" 10 injure
worthy wife and mother and young,
unmarried man. The correspondent
was fooled, and was simply used as a
tool by designing persons.
A more diabolical attempt to bring
two of New York's best-known and
most highly-respected families into
disgrace has never been known
in Newport. but the scandal
mongers shot wide Of the mark
and they never thought that the
young man would appeal to the courts
for redress. The society women who
imposed upon the correspondent are
known and their efforts to smirch the
character Of the lady were prompted
by pique. Their dupe came very near
striking deadly blow, which might
have forever ruined two happy homes.
Her confession is here, and it has been
seen and read by all those for whose
opinion the parties who were wronged
care anything about. The incident is
the sensation of the social season at
Newport.

Makes 1t Apparent that He Intends the
Chinese Exclusion Laws to be Enforced
by the Customs Authorities.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1. - Secretary
Carlisle has taken hand in the Chinese
situation in New York, which has been
the occasion of much friction recently
between the treasury department and
Collector Hicks. In letter to the col
lector Secretary Carlisle refers to the
request made by Mr.. Hendricks that
the treasury department should modify
it's instructions and permit the New
York customs officers to authenti-
cate Chinese certificates as hereto
fore, and calls his attention to the fact
that these acts were stultified by the
supreme court decision of 1891, which
prevented the ingress of Chinese Ia
borers or the issuance to them of GER
tificates by which they could re-enter
the United States.
After reviewing other regulations
covering the return to this country of
Chinese persons after a temporary alb
sence, the secretary says:
1.-The department can not concur in
your view that the unauthorized pr2c-
tice Of authenticating the certificates
of the Chinese consul at New York by
the signature and seal of the collector
should be resumed. Evidence is before
the Departmental one case where Chi
nese person represented himself to be
a member of firm of Chinese mer-
chants in New York, and was so
certified by the Chinese. consul
at New York, which certificate
was duly authenticated by the seal of
the customhouse and the signature of
one of your deputies, when in point of
fact, the Chinese person who presented
himself at the customhouse was an
other and entirely different person
from the one named in the certificate.
This man applied for admission at one
of the customhouses upon the
certificate mentioned, which, according
to your theory would be conclusive
evidence of his right to enter, mas
much as the photograph was that Of
the person who presented himself but
it was not that of the person named IL
the certificate, who was real person
age, formerly residing in New York
and who was still in China. That many
cases of this kind have occurred is
beyond question, and the department
sees no good reason for the continuance
of a practice by your office which in
instances like that mentioned only
serves as an aid to those engaged in
violating the law.
'It is my duty, as it is my purpose, to
employ all the means under my control
to enforce the law in good faith, and to
that end 1 shall expect the cordial CO.
operation of all officers OF the customs "

Ala, who report cotton and corn greatly
damaged by the continued drouth Of the
past two months.
AN effort is being made to import ST.
600, 900 in gold direct to Philadelphia
from Europe. New York will not be
consulted in the matter, nor will that
city have anything to do with the opera
ton.

in values.
THE total amount of national bank notes
outstanding is S1s3, ,655, 800, an increase
of 5,O41, 3s5 during the month. This is
an unusually heavy increase, and is
occasioned by the fact that many ma

OF Their Reservations on False Pretenses.
They May Don the War Paint.
WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, Aug. 1.-Spe
cial advices from Sheel Lake and
Spooner, in Washburn county, on the
Chicago, Milwaukee, st. Paul & Omaha,
say that between 400 and 500 Indians
have congregated and may don the
war paint. These Indians have come
from the reservations in the northern
part of Minnesota and Wisconsin.
They secured special permits from the
government to go off on tour to pick
blue cherries, which are found in very
large quantities in Washburn county,
and they have taken advantage of this
freedom to a dangerous and unusual
degree.
In the vicinity Of their present loca-
tion there are several settlements of
Indians and they have gathered their
red brethren about them until now a
small-sized army could easily be mus
tered out of their numbers Three
squaw houses and several dancing
platforms have been built seven miles
from the lake, and the nightly revels
of these Indians make the woods re-
sound. Whisky is plentiful and flows
freely. Many of the Indians are
armed, and threats upon the lives of
settlers have been made by them.
They have gone SO far as to raise their
rifles to shoot, in some instances.

The Steamship Alexandria, which sHns
Reported to Have Fired on the Nc hi
cam III Reports are True, Is Fixed Up In
regular Warlike Fashion, Having the
Overturning of the Provisional Govern
ment of Hawaii Her PresumabIe OBJ
ject.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-The following
is from an article in the San Francisco
Call, and which was telegraphed to the
World:
After intimating that certain Ha-
walian known as 'Licurgas, the
Greek" is engaged in Systematically
smuggling arms into Honolulu, the
Call adds: Rifles and cartridges
have been shipped to Honolulu This
the Call knows. No seizure has been
made Of any such goods on the Ha-
waiian islands. So does not every
thing point to clever plot on the part
of the royalists in Honolulu"
When the false report was sent out
from Port Townsend that the Mohican
had been fred upon by the steamer
Alexandria everybody inquired regard
ing the latter vessel. Sunday morning
the Call told of her curious make She
sailed from here on hunting and fish
ing cruise. She is of 945 tons and car
ried a crew of forty-five men. She
sailed under the Hawaiian flag as the
property of John Eta, of Honolulu
"The Alexandria carried the follow
ing articles of warfare: Two six
FOUNDER rapid-fire Hotchkiss guns,
two FOUNDER rapid-fire HotchlSiss
guns, 100 Winchester rifles, 5000 pounds
Of rifle ammunition, 500 four-pound
shells, 500 six-pound shells, four ad-
justible gun carriers, three Whitehead
| torpedoes and large quantity Of cut
lasses and small arms. 1t is positively
known tina t this boat sailed from here
rugged for fight in this manner.
The Alexandria is fitted for close
inshore fighting. Her draught is just
light enough to allow her to run into
port at Waikiki.
THE two Hotchkiss guns could be
transferred to shore in couple of
hours. The forty-fve men on board.
| reinforced by royalists and armed with
rifles on the Alexandria alone, could
take Honolulu. The provisional gov
ernment mas only an army of $50 men
and four apid-fring guns. Sam Parder
could get 500 men to do his bidding at
moments notice. Among these are
| 200 who belong to the old Hawaiian
| army, and they are crack shots.
again, the Alexandria might be off
the town of Honolulu and shell the
city until it capitulated. Under the
instructions of Minister Blount the
Boston anc the Adams could not inter
| fere.
"But the probability is that shore
| attack would be made, and even now
the difficult roadway from Honolulu
to Waikiki may be the scene of car
mage.
John Eta, under whose name the
| Alexandria sailed, is a well known
citizen of Honolulu, and is interested
in the royalist cause. He is active"
