CARVED RICE FOR A BRIDE.

Wonderful Work Executed by a Young
Japanese Artist Shown at the Fair.
There is at least one of the wonders
of the Japanese section of the Manu-
factures building that is not shown ex-
cept to special friends. 1t is to be
found In the exhibit of the Japanese
Central Exhibit association, the super
intendent of which is Frank Atsushi
Koidzumi, who exhibited the wonder
to reporter of the Tribune.
1t is a specimen of miniature carving
and connected with it is romantic
story. Adachi is the name of a young
man living in the Shimani, in Japan.
He is about twenty-one years old and
his business is that of carver in ivory.
A year ago he fell desperately in love
with a young lady in Toxic and met with
the usual resistance from the parents,
who were also connoisSeurs in carving.
The dispute was settled by the father
making to the young man a conditional
offer of his daughters hand. The con-
dition was that he should carve out of
two grains of rice really artistic inn
ages OF two of the seven Japanese gods
of fortune respectively.
he young arIlSJ Slauly accepted tne
offer. He was closely occupied by his
business during the day, but boldly ul-
dertook to accomplish this difficult task
by the light of a candle at night. He
procured sprig of rice having five
grains attached. He removed the hull
from the two uppermost grains, and
began the process. For three long
months he labored, and at last finished
his work. They were entirely success
full, and the marriage occurred soon
afterward. But before a great while
the injury done to the young mans eyes
by his close application resulted in
total blindness.
The beauty of this wonderful carving
can only be seen by the assistance of
large magnifying glass, which is kept
for that purpose. The original ivory
statues of the gods from which, as
models, the carving was done, are also
shown. The rice grains are carefully
hid away in lacquer box, but can be
seen by anyone who can get the conf
dence of Mr.. Koidzumi. They are for
sale, though no price has been set en-
them.-Chicago Tribune.

RIO AGAIN sHELLED.


rho Rebel Fleet Again BombnrdS the
brazilian Capital - Great Loss of Life
Reported-CitIzcns PanIc-Stricken.
LONDON, Oct. 8.-The ss---tilian rebel
fleet again bombarded Rio Janeiro ac-
cording to dispatch received by a
leading banking house here. The
dispatch says that many lives
were lost and an immense amount
of damage done The residents of
Rio, who for many days have
been living in dread of such an 'as-
sault, were panic-stricken when they
heard the first shot fired and fled in
confusion from one part of the city to
another The total damage cannot be
ascertained from the dispatch, which
Is brief and does not go into details.
Panic Among tho Inhabitants.
A dispatch received by the Exchange
Telegraph company says that admiral
Mello reopened fire upon the forts de-
Tending the bay of Rio Janeiro. The
dispatch adds that the bombardment
continued without cessation through
out the day. Provisions in Rio Janeiro
are selling at famine prices Panic
among the inhabitants again prevails.
The Brazilian legation in this city
furnished the United Press the follow
ing information received in dispatches
from the government at Rio Janeiro
bearing date October 1:
The insurgent squadron under command OF
Admiral Mello is still in the bay Of Rio Janeiro
with its fighting elements weakened Many OF
the members of the crews of the rebel warshipS
are deserving daily. During the recent engage.
ments between the land forces and the fleet the
shore artillery damaged some OF the rebel yes.
sell Two steamers that attempted to land in
surgents at Santos and on the island of Santa
Catharna were repulsed The land forces are
united and loyal to the government Public
opinion is wholly opposed to the insurgents.
The foreign ministers at Rio, the
cable adds. backed up by the COM
manders of the foreign war vessels,
have gone so far in the matter of pro-
testing to De Mellos against fur
ther bombardment as diplomatic
courtesy will permit Every
argument was brought to bear,
not only on the insurgent ad-
miral but on the government, to eff
feet a peaceable settlement of the
trouble, and avoid the daily increasing
harrors of war at Rio. These friendly
but vigorous efforts secured delay
last week of few hours in the hostili-
ties, but now, it seems, they have proved
to be entirely without beneficial re-
suit, and shells will continue to spread
death and devastation in the capital
city until the stronger power triumphs.
The capture of Desterro by the rebels
has added greatly to their strength,
and has made it possible for them to
prolong operations indefinitely.

EXPENSIVE PERFUME.

Altar of Roses Valued at Sixteen Hundred
Dollars Pint by Bulgarian Exhibitors.
Sixteen hundred dollars pint is the
very liberal estimate put on the value
of the altar of roses show in the Bull
garian exhibit at the worlds fair.
There are not many pints on exhibit
ton, however, and those that are there
are guarded with the same Jealous
care given the diamonds and watches
in the Swiss exhibit.
This price may seem rather steep to
the ordinary purchaser, but when it is
figured that seventy-fve. thousand
roses are required to make one ounce
the value does not seem so dispropor-
tionate Visitors, however, who are
told it's cost and see the ordinary look
ing cases in which it is contained have
habit of smiling incredulously and
then saying uncomplimentary things
regarding the veracity of the man who
looks after it. They are surprised, too,
when told that altar of roses freezes
in temperature which brings the per-
spiration out on the faces of honest
people. They look upon this story as
belonging in the same class with that
regarding the value of the stuff.
"Why, you can never make me be-
lieve that this will freeze when the
thermometer is sixty degrees above
zero" said one of the visitors the
other day 81 am too well up in sci
ence to fool me osi a thing of that sort.
/ know that water freezes at thirty
two degrees above zero, and if it has to
be that cold TO freeze water, it would
have to be at least as cold as that to
freeze altar of roses" "You forget,
replied the man, "that it has to get a
good deal colder than thirty-two de-
grees to freeze alcohol, and if one liquid
requires greater degree sof cold than
water why should not another liquid re-
quire less degree?" The reasoning is
all right, and, when backed up by the
sight of the altar of roses frozen in a
bottle, when ice is melting in water
tank, sometimes convinces the visitor.
At other times it does not, and then
the attendant shrugs his shoulders and
says something in French

A Mntter of Health.

Housekeepers family realize the
danger of an indiscriminate use of the
numerous baking powders nowadays
found upon every hand, and which are
urged upon consumers with such per-
sistency by peddlers and many grocers
on account of the big profits made in
their sale. Most of these powders are
made from sharp and caustic acids and
alkalies which burn and inflame the
alimentary organs and cause indiges-
ton, heartburn, diarrhnal diseases,
etc. Sulphuric acid, caustic potash,
burnt alum, all are used as gas-produc-
ing agents in such baking powders
Most housekeepers are aware of the
painful effects produced when these
chemicals are applied to the external
flesh. How much more acute must be
their action upon the delicate internal
membranes! Yet INSCRIPTIONS manu-
facturers do not hesitate to use them,
because they make very low-cost
powder, nor to urge the use of their
powders so made, by all kinds of allur-
ing advertisements and false repre-
sentations. All the low-priced or So
called cheap baking powders, and all
powders sold with gift or prize be-
long to this class.
Baking powders made from chemical
ly pure cream of tartar and bi-carbon-
ate of soda are among the most useful
of modern culinary devices. They not
only make the preparation of finer and
more delicious cookery possible, but
they have added to the digestibility
and wholescmeness of our food. But
baking powders must be composed of
such pure and wholesome ingredients
or they must be tabooed entirely.
DIR. Edison, Commissioner of Health
of New York, in an article in the Doc
tor of Hygiene" indicates that the ad-
vantages of good baking powder and
the exemption from the dangers of
bad ones in which the harsh and caus-
tic chemicals are used, are to be Sc
cured by the use of Royal Baking
Powder exclusively, and he recon-
mends this to all consumers. THE
Royal" he says, contains nothing but
| cream of tartar and soda refined to a
chemical purity, which when combined
under the influence of heat and mois-
| ture produce pure carbonic, or leaven-
ing, gas. The two materials used,
cream of tartar and soda, are perfectly
harmless even when eaten, but in this
preparation they are combined in ex-
act compensating weights, SO that
when chemical action begins between
them in the dough they practically dis
appear the substance of both having
been taken to form carbonic acid gas. y
Hence it is, he says, that the Royal
Baking Powder is the most perfect OF
, all conceivable agents for leavening
purposes.
1t seems almost incredible that any
manufacturer or dealer should urge
the sale of baking powders containing
injurious chemicals in place of those
of well-known, pure, and wholesome
character simply for the sake of few
cents pound greater profit; but since
they do, u few words of warning seen
| to be necessary.

Are.

What It's Purposes and Plans
Are.
Editor Morning NeWs The rumor
which hos been spread to the effect that tbs
members Of the Cosmopolitan Club rendered
their united support in the late election To
Col. Warning Russell and Capt. John r.
Dillon for a mercenary consideration, shows
clearly the malicious design of our detract~
ors. They are unrelentlnR In their efforts
to disband our organization for reasons
unknown to us-but we are equally deter
mined to sustain the Cosmopolitan Club and
fight for recognition as class until we are
granted the same. We deemed IL necessary
10 expel few unworthy members In order
to preserve our good reputation.
At our last meeting communication
was brought in to the effect that the ex-
PEELED members were approached by certain
individuals and were instructed to insert an
ad. in one of the newspapers stating that
the Cosmopolitan Club bad been disbended
Immediately after the election Of county
officers. Such reports should not be credited.
We also want the public to know that wa
are not controlled by any politician or
politicians. The truth of the above assertion
can DO ascertained by examining the con-
stitution and bylaws Of the club, which are
open TO all who are interested in the welfars
Of the community. And besides, the part
election sufficiently corroborates the sin.
certify of our statement We have shown
no partisauship with regard Co the various
aspirants for county offices, and We are de-
termlned 10 pursue the same course In the
mayoralty contest, and In all future cleo
tions as well. We also wish to inform the
public that the Cosmopolitan has nos
been organized as a temporary campaign
club. At our last meeting we resolved to
sustain IL permanently. by assessing sach
individual member to the amount OF 25
cents per week. and the funds which will
thereby be accumulated shall be devoted to
charitable PURPOSES. New blood has been
infused into our members by the discovery
which we have recently made that our
worthy president has been dis
mis- ed from bis position because he
has shown his determination so as
to remain a member of our organize
ton contrary TO the wishes Of his employer.
After some lengthy discussions reiscting
upon the merits of the candidates for the
approaching mayoralty contest the meeI-
ing was adjourned until next Sunday.
