A WISE PAsHA. ?.
Who Was Able to Live Anicably with
 Several Wives.


 Several Wives.
 Ismail appears to have been one of the few men who have succeeded in living in amity with number of wives under the same roof. Writing upon the glamour of the harem and the khedive's relation toward his spouses, Miss Chen nells, in her book, ''Recollections of an Egyptian Princess" says:
 1.-The great object of European ladies, either at Constantinople or Cairo, is to get an introduction to the harem; but once visited the charm is generally broken. On fete days the impression is gorgeous; the magnificent dresses, the splendid apartments, the flashing of jewels, the open courts with the feathery palms, and the sound of fall ing waters, all produce delightful ef- feet. But on ordinary visits you were struck with the entire absence of any thing to promote amusement or mental occupation. No books, music, or any little feminine work lying bout. The windows might look out on a garden, but there was sure to be a high wall which shut out all outer life. The khedive, to do him justice, was anxious to raise the position Of women; he founded schools for girls, he endeav- ored to promote education in his own harem, and gave much greater liberty and means, both of recreation and in- struction, to it's inmates than any sovereign had done before him. Ismail Pasha had four wives, the full propor- tion allowed by the koran. To the first and second he was married when quite young, and to the third after his accession. These three ladies lived with him in the same palace. They, of course, had separate suites of apart ments, but they lived in perfect amity, as had full opportunity of knowing later. I once said what a wonderful thing it was for three wives to live to- gether like affectionate sisters, but I was answered immediately: That is because his highness never shows any preference for one more than the others; if one is favored to-day, the others have their turn tomorrow I thought him wonderful man to keep the bal ance so even."

Sulss Yatchn,aI,ers.

Watches were made in Geneva as early as 1509, and now that watchmall- ing has become a national industry in Switzerland schools for the perfection of this profession have been established there, The principal one of these is L'Eeole Munioipale d'Ilorlogerie in Geneva. A boy enters this school at the age of fourteen and works ten hours for eleven months. Seven hours out ofcvcry week, however, are given to various studies. The second class re quires a stay of five or six months; the third six or seven months; the fourth six months; the fifth-whcn the work is growing very complicated eight months; the sixth thirteen months and the seventh and last class about one year. making aboutfive years in all. At the end of the five years each boy has made twelve watches, which are his-own property.

Matching Fish Under Hens.

Chinese fishermen collect with care from the margin and surface of water all those gelatinous masses which con tain the spawn of fish, and after they have found sufficient quantity they fill with it the shell of a fresh hem egg which they have previously emp tied, stop up the hole and put it under a setting fowl. At the expiration of a certain number of days they break the shell in water warmed by the sun. The young fry are presently matched and are kept in pure, fresh water till they are large enough to be thrown into the pond.

Trades of Turi,s.

Every Mussulinan, however high his rank, from the sultan down to the low est dervish. is compelled to have a trade. The grandfather of the present sultan was a toothpick maker. The boatman, porter or groom is eligible to the grade of pasha. The butcher of to-day may be gene-alissimo of to-mor- row, and the lowest slave may become grand vizioT.

ANGRY STOCKHOLDERS.
Troubles of the Lady Manager of Coal
Vile Store.

Troubles of the Lady Manager of Coal
Vile Store.
Attorney A. 7. Schroeder returned home
yesterday from Coalville, where he has
been for several days as counsel for the de-
PENDANT in an interesting and peculiar case.
The defendant was Miss Kate Chase,
formerly a school teacher, but recently
Eanager of the Farmers Mercantile COM
pany at Hoytsville, and the territory
Utah was plaintiff.
For some time past it appears that the
business, being managed by Miss Chase,
had been running behind, as country
stores often do, and ultimately the young
lady discovered that she was behind in the
Rsum of about 81, 700. She said nothing
about the matter 10 the company, how
ever, hoping that business would i'm
prove, and that the accruing profits
would patch up the shortage. It was not
long though, until the company discov-
cred the existence of the shortage and
they Immediately had their fair manager
arrested for obtaining goods by false pre-
fences. Subsequently she was also
charged with embezzlement and falsify-
ing accounts.
The hearing came before Justice Ball at
Coalville and the charge OF obtaining
goods under false pretenses was dismissed
on motion of the defense, on the ground
that the justice lacked jurisdiction.
Next came the charge of ENLIGHTENMENT
and a demurrer on the usual grounds was
sustained and twenty-four hours given
in which to amend. The complaint
not having been amended in the time
specified, it was also dismissed.
Miss Chase was then called for prelim-
mary hearing on the charge of falsifying
accounts and upon that charge was held
to the grand jury.
Miss Chase talks of retaliating by insti-
tuting a suit Tor damages.

NEW YORK. Feb. 2S.-Although the full
effect of the liquidations OF Reading is prooa-
bly, seen in that stock itself the after effects
are now being felt by the general market.
Bears operations today extended to the entire
active list although the market showed con-
siderable resistance. The event of the day was
the resignation of President Parsons of the New

his management and its effect was Immediately
TO intensity the slackness prevailing in the
general list. Reading opened with decline of
IL. but at the close OF the day recovered 4, but
New England closed at the lowest figure, with a
loss of 39s per cent. Other coal stocks were
directly affected by the impression of the fail

loss of 4 per cent, and Delaware & Hudson
pa Northern Pacific preferred closed with a
net loss of Al per cent.
The switchmen's strike in Chicago was a
powerful influence in encouraging the bears
and Burlington, St. Paul and Rock Island suf-
Tered declines OF over ? per cent. The most
striking feature of the day, however, was a
renewal OF heavy selling in Sugar, the net loss
of the day reaching rs per cent.

David B. Bybee of Hooper, one of
Utah S earliest pioneers, died this morn
ing, after prolonged illness. The de-

ganized when the stock was issued, the

But if he had spoken the truth about the matter
he would have told you that the first volume OF
the latest edition OF the Encyclopedia Britain

greater part OF 1t was compiled at that date.

That depends on the kindof book you want.

Just SO. But, you see, the Encyclopedias

like you. It was put together to be used by
Englishmen IN England. And, you see, they
want the exact opposite OF what you do, sndsh
Encyclopedia Britannica very properly, gives
it to them. It fills pages with the account of
some insignificant English borough or county
that you may never want to know anything
about whatever, aud gives half dozen lines 20
some State orcity here that you want the fullest
particulars of, but about which an Engishman
. cares just nothing at all.
Right az trivet, whatever that may bel

exactly right, all the same. It's the AMERL-
CANNED Encyclopedias Britannica that We
propose to put in every home in the West. The
iong-winded articles on petty British subjects
have been cut down to the same length that
would have been given them had they been
French or German subjects, and the articles on
matters of American interest have been all re-
written and treated just as exhaustively as they
would have been in the original work had they
| been specially interesting to Englishmen.
Well, rather. One Of the best and most COM
plete ever written. And there are four thou.
sand new biographies besides. In fact. the
work contains the life Of every distinguished
man or woman, American or foreign, now living,
or who has died since the Encyclopaedia Bri-
