WHY Foam Is White.

The question as to why all foam is
white is not an easy one 70 understand,
but the fact is that foam is always white,
whatever ma be the color of the bev-
erage itself. The froth produced on a
bottle of the blacklist ink is white. and
would be perfectly SO We're it not tinged
TO a certain extent by particles of the
beverage which the bubbles hold in me-
chanical suspension. As to the cause Of
this w%hiteness. it is sufficient to say that
it is due to the large number OF rejecting
surfaces formed by the foam, fer i. is
these surfaces which. by rejecting the
light, produce upon our eyes the impress
sion of white.
If we remember that all bodies owe
their colors to the rays of light, which
they annot absorb. and all bodies which
reflect all the light they receive. without
absorbing any, appear perfectly white.
We shall be prepared to understand how
the multitude of rejecting surfaces
formed by the foam. and which do not
absorb any light. must necessarily give
tie froth a white appearance. 1t is for
the same reason that any very fine pow
der appears white. even the blacklist
marble, when ground to dust, losing
every trace of its original color.-Thomas
Warwick in Confectioners' Journal.

A Faithful Eskimo Dog.

Fidelity is the chief virtue of the Es-
kimo dog. One of my leaders when
crippled by starvation and overwork had
to be abandoned because he refused to
be carried on the sled. left him be-
hind feeling as if ! Were tearing myself
away from a dear friend. but before we
continued our way | gave him the last
fish we had. depriying ourselves of that
much food. Three days a~fterward,
while We were encamping at the Eskimo
village of Kahonak, the dog reached us.

feet and emaciated body for eighty-five

The Pleasures 0f .tristOcracy.

There is a painful seriousness about
the pleasures Of the American a~ristocrat
that makes her tfor it is generally the
woman who rules i'll these matters Il
most interasting-nav. entertaining
subject for the social philosopher. she
must seek her comrades. for example, no
SO much among those whom she likes as
among those whom she must like. and
she must devote herself Il amusement
with al the ardor of her soul and all the
vigor Of her body.
In the countries where an aristocrat il
born. not made. the members of the Sc
lect body have certain public and useful
functions. and the world is interested III
their play because that is part Of the
public ceremonies. but in this happy re-
public, where all are equal, the people
whose social affairs are chronicled in the
press are thus talked about simply be-
cause they play and insist upon believ-
ing that the public is quite as much in
terested in their balls as in the graver
affairs of state, and that it is much more
of an honor to wear the tab of one Of
their lotteries than to win a seat in the
national Legislature.
They take themselves very seriously.
and they are partly right. At all events
they do the rest of the world very little
harm. and occasionally, no doubt, have
a good time.-Harrer's Weekly.

BARELY ALIVE,

The End Has Not Yet Come to James q.

Rapidly Sinking.

Johnston was summoned to the Blaine

was sinking rapidly. He returned to
the bedside of the patient, saying that
he would remain there until aybreak.
1t is not believed MIR. Blaine can
rally from this sinking spell, though
the powerful restoratives which were
probably at once administered may
cause him to retain his hold on life a
few hours. But he is dying and it
seems now to be only question of
hours until the end comes
To the friends who were admitted to
the house the word was sent down from
the sick chamber that while Mr.. Blaine
was better there was no change in the
general symptoms, and the best that
was now hoped for was that his life
might be prolonged.
One of the closest friends of the
stricken statesman said to the news.
paper watchers: Il don't think you
will have to keep the vigil much
longer The light of the life of
Mr.. Blaine is going out, and
do not think he will survive
the next twenty-four hours. His pres
ent condition is Il struggle between eX.
istence and the end, which is likely to
terminate at any time. Mr.. Blaine is
apparently oblivious of those around
him, but he frequently arouses from

weak physically to manifest any inter.

Der was abandoned as legislative
hall and given over to the supreme
court. | do not know why the robed
justices discarded this clock, but they
did SO, and now it stands opposite the
main entrance of the senate with its
white face apparently appealing for
admittance. The senators of to-day,
however, do not know the old clock
and they heedlessly pass it by Yet
this old clock was good enough for the
statesmen of ante-bellum days.
Such men as Webster, Clay, Calhoun,
Hayne set their bull's-eye watches and
timed their speeches by it, With inex-
orable accuracy it measured off the
lives of these great men into minutes,
and one by one marked the hour of
their death. Its twelve-stroke for
years has struck out the term Of one
administration and in the term of an
other, Presidents and senators were
sworn in by it, and it possesses secrets

HOMESTEAD AFFAIRS.

Dissatisfaction Among Nom Union EN-
pioyes as Well as the Ex-Strikers on Ac-
count of the Scale of Wages.
PITTSBURGH. Jan. 11.-Discontent ex-
lists among the men in the Homestead
steel works This dissatisfaction is no
greater among the ex-strikers than
among the non-unionists. who claim
that they are not being paid the wages
promised them by agents of the Carne-
gle Steel Company throughout the
country when entering the service. The
growing of the old hands becomes
more ominous each day, and it is the
opinion not only of men who work in
the mill, but of Homestead citizens gen.
orally, that by spring the Carnegie COM
pany will have another Homestead
strike on it's hands.
Under the old scale cupola foremen
in the old converter were paid So So per
100 tons, iron tappers S1.6s per 100 tons
and ladlemen s1.6s per 100 tons. A
comparison of these rates with those at
present paid in the new converting mill
shows cupola foremen now receive S1.31
per 100 tons, iron tappers 81 cents per
100 tons and ladlemen ST.. 40 per 100 tons
Under the old scale eight-hour turns
were the rule, while now the convert
ing mill men swelter twelve hours for
turn. Like reduction in wages and
corresponding increase in hours is in
effect in every department.
Should it come to question of organ
izing for another strike which, judging
from present indications, is not at all
improbable, the non-union men in the
works will be taken in, as they are as
loud, if not more so, in their denuncia-
tion of the treatment they have re-
ceived at the hands of the company, as
are the eN-strilSers

Center of the United States.

The exact situation of the geograph.
ical center of the United States Is a sus.-
prise to anyone who has not given the
subject careful attention, says the De-
troit Free Press. The most eastern
point Of the United States is Quoddy
Head, Me-; the western, Attoo island,
Alaska; the most northern, Point Islr-
row, Alaska; the most southern, Key
West, Fla. The center of the quad
rangular figure formed by uniting these
four points is located at the crossing Of
SIS degrees north latitude and ITO de-
grees west longitude, about 42O miles
north of the northern line of Montana.
1t is also true of the United States as Of
Great Britain, that the sun never sets
on our territory, for when it is p. m.
on Attoo island, Alaska, it is $3.50 a. 10.

of bronze orname

and little bit of bronze work upon
which rests the alabastcr, while there is
a very small, symmetrical and handsome
equestrian figure on the top. This
clock attracts attention, and once upon
n time it captured the eye of some vis-
itor, who captured the clock and car
ried it away. 1t was recovered after a
time, and, with that exception, it has
been in the capitol since the ancient
history of our young republic. Nobody
knows now when it was purchased. 1t
is conceded to be one of the oldest in.
habitants.
The senate clock of to-day is plain
diaf over the door of the main entrance
of the senate chamber. 1t is of blue
enamel, with golden stars, and is so
located that the vice president can gaze
directly upon it, and every member can
see it by slightly turning their heads.
The official clock of the house of repre-
sentatives which t over the main en-.
trance of the house, directly opposite
the speaker, is about four feet in height
and is elaborately ornamented with
scrolls and wreaths of bronze Upon a
shield above the clock is perched q
spread eagle, while on either side
of the clock is a bronze figure, one
representing farmer or pioneer, and
the other an American Indian. 1t is q
very handsome timepiece, but cannot
compare with the senate clock foI
modest beauty and richness. The hands
of this clock are never turned back,
1t is only the senate clock which re.
ceivcs admonitions from Capt. Bassett
that it must not get "too fast" upop
certain occasions of national impor.
tance.
When everybody in the house of rep.
resentatives wants to talk, and nobody
wants to listen, resolution is passed
limiting debate to five minutes for each
member. Under such circumstances
the speaker ignores the big clock with
its bronze figures and spread eagle. He
has little clock on his desk, which Is
also cared for by Mr.. Bates, and with
that chronomcter he measures off the
time and calls the takers down Mt the
expiration of their allotted time
