LEMONS IN SUHMER.
SUGGESTIONS for the Preparation
of Cooling Beverages.

A correspondent tells how to
prepare lemons in summer so that
at any time a cooling drink may
be prepared more easily than lem
onade and quite as palatabIe.
To six pounds of white sugar
add the grated rinds of twelve
large lemons, without cutting
them. Stir the sugar and grated
lemon peel into half a gallon of
water, and place it over a slow fire
until it is dissolved thoroughly.
Then increase the heat until it
boils enough to thicken, taking the
scum off as it arises. After it
thickens, add the juice of the
twelve lemons, carefully leaving
out the pulp and seeds. Boil all
together for ten minutes, and when
cool bottle and keep in a dark
cellar. Use in the proportion of
one-third lemon syrup to two-thirds
water.
Another simple drink is made by
dropping a quantity of fresh lemon
peel into wide-mouthed bottles of
good vinegar. After it has been
prepared for some time, it is quite
refreshing on a hot day if a small
portion is gradually stirred into a
glass Of ice water.-New York

POINTS ABOUT TOBACCO.
Some Interesting News Concern
ing q Great Industry.

Genuine amber is becoming
scarcer every year. In the not far
distant future a real amber cigar
holder or pipe stem viii be rarity
and a luxury.
The cigar industry in Florida
has increased rapidly within the
last few years. The state is said
to be the fourth in the Union in
the manufacture of cigars and the
amount of tobacco used. The
number of cigars manufactured
last year amounted 10 156, S79,-
627.
A prominent American buyer of
high grade tobacco leaf, recently
returned from Cuba, says a large
crop will be harvested this year,
but the prices maintained will be
high. The quality is of the best,
and good cigars ought to result.
A French scientist declares that
the practice of medical students
and anatomy demonstrators, of
smoking in the dissection room,
though effective as an antiseptic,
has a disastrous effect upon the
offsprings of these users of the
weed. The next generation he
says, will lack the normal power
of resisting disease, chiefly through
the transmission of defective nerv-
Gus systems. His powers of fore
sight are marvellous.
The legislature Of Florida has
passed an excellent law prohibit
ing cigar manufacturers in that
state, outside of Key West, from
designating their brands under
that city's name. The reputation
of Key West cigars will now be
protected from the multitude of in
ferior makes with which the coun-
try nas been flooded. Heavy fines
will be imposed on violators.
Killikinick or kinikinik, which
the Indians are in the habit OF
mixing with tobacco, is rapidly
becoming extinct. Several plants
have received this name but they
have no right to it. The true herb
is the inside bark of a young will
low, and when smoked alone
makes a mild and pleasant smoke.

He Left by the WarrimOo Shortly
After the Robbery.

The recent robbery of Admiral
Skerretts apartments at the Ha
waiian hotel is still fresh in the
minds of the public. 1t was men
toned in these columns at the time
of reporting the matter that the
case had been placed in the hands
of Captain William Larsen.
Although there seemed to be no
clue whatever to the guilty party,
Captain Larsen has managed to
secure evidence which bears di-
rectly on the case. AS its publica-
ton will not in any way interfere
with the ends of justice, Captain
Larsen has kindly consented to
having it appear in print.
1t will be remembered that the
steamer Warrimoo arrived in this
city on Thursday last (Aug. 31st)
from Australia, en- route to British
Columbia. The vessel remained
in port until 9 o'clock in the even
ing of that day, sailing shortly
thereafter for Victoria. A band
concert was in progress at the Ha-
waiian hotel the same evening,
which many of the passengers by
the Warrimoo attended. Among
the number was a tall, well-built
man of gentlemanly appearance and
address, and said to be an English
man. He is further described as
being between 80 and 50 years of
age, nearly 6 feet in height, of dark
complexion, clean shaver, very
expressive eyes, with slight
stoop when walking. He was
dressed in dark blue suit of
clothes and wore a derby hat.
This parsonage who is further
described as resembling an actor
and bearing a rather distinguished
appearance was seen by a number
of persons in the hotel grounds
during the evening of the concert
and robbery.
The man who was seen by Miss
Skerrett in the corridor upstairs in
the vicinity of her room about 8
o'clock of the evening of the rob-
berry was of a similar description,
and was afterwards pointed out by
the steward of the steamer to one
of the harbor police, who afterwards
reported the fact to Captain Larsen
as being a noted Australian thief,
who had served sentences in
several jails in Australia. This
man was seen to leave the hotel
shortly after 9 o'clock the same
evening, but the robbery had not
been discovered or reported at that
hour. He sailed by the Warrimoo
for British Columbia about half an
hour after leaving the hotel.

An Up-fo-Dafe SoliIOquy.

A fragment in a lady's handwrit-
ing, picked up last week on the Mem
bers' Lawn at SandOwn.
To paint, or not to paint? That is the
question:
Whether it's better on ones cheeks to
suffer
The marks inflicted by wearing sea-
son,
Or to take steps against increasing
paleness,
And, with the rouge pot, end it? To
paint-to rouge
That's all; and by simple smear to
mask
Times onset, and to change the pasty
hue
Our flesh is heir tots consumma-
ton
Devoutly to be wish'd. TO paint-to
rouge
To rouge? Perchance to daub-aye,
there's the rub;
For, of that simple smear, the mess
some make
Must give us pause, and bid us hest
tate
Ere we supply ourselves with new
compilations.
For who would wear the marks of dim
ing out;
OF crowded balls, of visits to the
opera;
OF smart" reunions and sleep cur
taird;
When she herself might bring youths
roses back
With a soft hare's foot? Who would
still be pale,
But that the dread of rouging badly
done
OF paint put on with ineffective
touch,
And clumsily withal-puzzles the
will,
And makes us rather wear the hue
we have
Than rouge new one W hen we scarce
know how?
Thus does self consciousness and fear
of ridicule
Make towards of some of Us, though
not of all;
And keep us, in the midst of painted
bushes,
Still sicklied DER with n pale cast of
cheek.

NAVAL SIGNALING.
How Uncle Sans Vessels Com

The United States, like every
other civilized country, has a code
of naval signals of its own, by
which American ships may COM
municate with each other without
their signals being read by others.
This is comparatively simple.
But the construction of a cipher
telegraph code was one of the most
difficult feats ever attempted, and
it was only by years of application
that the navy department secured
its present code. This is considered
the finest system of its kind in ex-
istence, and is said to be perfectly
undecipherable except by the key,
which is jealousy guarded by the
government.
Every commanding officer of a
United States vessel receives q copy
of the code. 1t is kept under lock
and key, and on giving up the
command of a ship the captain
turns the books over to his sue
cessor, taking a receipt in writing
for it.
The Navy department always
has several experts among the
young officers at the department,
and on receipt of a cipher dispatch
they are Immediately put to work
on it. So complicated is the cipher
that it often takes hours to unravel
a dispatch of thirty words. But it
could not be unraveled at all by an
enemy or outsider.
Great care had to be taken to
make it as undecipherable to the
outside world as possible, because
the information to be conveyed by
it would always be of the highest
Importance. Besides, it is often
necessary to communicate informa-
ton from a place in which two par
ties might be contending, and if
the information fell into the hands
of either side it might be used to
defeat the other, thus breaking the
sacred laws of neutrality.
The Navy department, although
secure of the inviolability of its
code, never gives to the press an
exact copy of its cipher dispatches,

NEW COLORINGS IN DENIM.
A Material Now Popular for
Fancy Work.

a Material Now Popular for
Fancy Work.
A new material that is bound to
be popular for fancy work is denim
in shades Of red. 1t will make
the most effective hammock and
piazza pillows one can imagine
and will require absolutely no de-
coration, although some very
striking work may be produced by
embroidering various articles made
of this goods with heavy crewels
or wash linen floss in such con-
trasting shades as dark blue, old
gold or black. 1t is especially
adapted to such purposes as laun-
dry and shoe bags, being strong
and washable. A pattern that is
easily drawn and executed is that
of partial circles overlapping each
other around the bottom of bag
or across the corner of a pillow.
Draw the outlines with saucer
and work in feather stitch. 1t will
make most artistic portieres for
cottages, placed in the dining room
or hall, where richness of coloring
is desirable. There is also a re-
versible denim, shading from red
to blue, with the blue predominant
ing on one side and the red on the
other.-Boston Telegram.

Found the Father of the Twins.

The calls that are made npon poor
commissioner Doty often result upon
an investigation, in many cases, either
in impostors or peculiar conditions.
Yesterday he was called to North Sc
daIia to look up the wants nj Il poor
woman who had just given birth To
twins. Upon his questioning the We
man IA to who was the father ri the
twins, she at first refused to give hi
name. But when she perceived that
she would receive no aid unless she
impaired the name oi' the father. she
at last reluctantly disclosed same.
Commissioner Doty then started in
quest of the dad, and he was not
long in running him down. A little
persuasive argument upon the part of
Mr.. Doty, soon convinced the happy
Tor unhappy papa" that he must
provide for his otisprings and their
mother. or there would he trouble.
The result was, that load of wood
and goodly supply of provisions
soon reached the home Of the I'M
fortunate woman.
