 The Japanese Customs bureau has issued statement of the country's commerce that shows that Japan's trade is increasing with the United States much more rapidly that 1t is with England, France or Ger many. During the four years 1889 92 the aggregate trade with Germany remained nearly stationary at an average of q, ,0O0,- : 900. The trade with France increased un- evenly from F, ,592, 1894 to s1, TIA, ,194 yen. The trade with the British Empire in- creased from 55, 4s9, ,556 to 56, 1aS, ,244. But the trade with the United States expanded from 31, ,426, ,044 yen to 44,e6S, ,024 yen. This increase was due In the main to our importation of Japanese silks and teas. The Japanese. direct imports from the United States amounted to only 6,000,- 900, but there are indications that this will grow rapidly. The trade with the British Empire is largely 6 colonial trade. The trade with Great Britain itself decreased in the four years mentioned from 33, 7S2,- 534 yen to 24. I'll ,0s4 yen.
 Notwithstanding the many and ingeni ous methods which engineering skill has proposed for consuming smoke, especially in the case of bituminous coal, the simple steam jet device is proving a most satisfac- tory contrivance. A piece of two-inch pipe runs horizontally along the front wall of a furnace, just under the boiler; at one end 1t is capped, and at the other 1t turns outward through the front wall, then pass ing downward and through the front again into the ash pit. The lower end of this pipe is placed we'll to one side of the ash pit, so that 1t may not be in the way of the fireman, and opens under the grate so that 1t may receive air that has been warmed by the downward radiation from the fur mace inside of the upper horizontal part of this pipe, a piece of half-inch steam pipe is secured which comes out through the setting at the side op- posite to that ,on which the air pipe makes its exit and then passes upward and enters the boiler at its highest part, so that the steam drawn through 1t may be dry ss possible. Small nczzles, with holes one sixteenth of an inch in diameter, and six inches or so apart, are attached to that portion of the steam pipe enclosed in the air pipe in the furnace, and these come op- posite similar bat larger nozzles fitted to the air pipe itself. On the valve being opened, steam blows out through the noz- gle, drawing air along with it by kind of ejector like action, and the nozzles are SO placed that the discharge of mixed air and steam is directed toward the angle formed bx, <ba I,ridOa xuo11 and tho orafeo

LOSS OF CONFIDENCE

Those who speculate, those who invest and those who do business in other ways have discovered during the last two or three weeks that there is loss of conf derce. Last fall, when the Democrats had "saved the country" they had conf dence enough to sink a ship. On the 4th of March. when their President was inau- gurated they had more confidence than ever. They felt that the Man of Destiny had come into his own and that he would make everything all right. Only two months have gone, and we do not hear so much about what President Cleveland Is going to do for the country. What he and his advisers and supporters have done is to thoroughly scare everybody whose peace of mind depands on the financial situation. The vaoiIlating and ambiguous course oi Secretary Carlisle gave the scare 8 good start, and then the idea that the President intended to give the country "lesson in finance" didn't help matters much. Then it was felt that the Democratic tariff policy would make trouble, and the scare increased and aourished There are some signs now that the worst Is over, but it has been a very serious affair, and will have some very serious consequences. It is figured that specu. lators and investors have already lost hail | 8 billion, and business Is suffering from the withdrawal of capital and the genera timidity. Aud 1t is felt there can be nc real return of confidence until there Ii sound financial legislation and a certainty that there Is not to be destructive tariff legislation.
 | Thus the new administration starts off There Is little confidence in its ability tt deal with the situation in any way 10 great ly improve It. The Democratic party i
 not celebrated for wise financial or wis
 tariff legislation, and i. will be surprising If 1t changes now.
 In addition to the loss of confidence b,
 business men and financiers there is anothe
 painful loss of confidence. The Mugwump
 are not confident that they are going t
 have all the offices, and they are no
 confident that if they don't get them civi
 service reform will make progress enougl
 to suit them. It is sad to see them losin
 confidence in the idol they have so faith
 fully and fervently worshipped.
 There is another loss of confidence com

the tight cuffs are trimmed with three
 bands os this silk in different widths.
 The other model is In light, bluish gray
 woolen suiting, with a deep yoke of bluish
 gray aud pink ehsngesble silk. It Is cut
 princess and has 8 panel of the silk in
 serted on the right side. The yoke, collar
 and cuffs are trimmed with heavy light gray silk psssementerie, which is also put around the bottom of the skirt and con tinues up each side of the panel. The sleeves are full and puffed snd may be fashioned either of the silk or of the woolen stuff. In either case they end in s turned back cuff of the woolsn suiting and are finishe with band of narrow passementerie. The costume fsstens in visibly in the back and is lined with thin silk.
 We who have objected must take down our colors and confess that the stiff and | full skirt in its present adaptation is very pretty and distinctly comfortable. Of couree there is more stuff in it than there | was in the old skirts, and 1t ought to be | heavier, but it isn't. Besides wa all know | that there is not nearly ss much stuff ss | when we had skirts and overskirts, or when we had reeds in the backs of our
 gowns to support yards and yards of | looped up drspery. Those were the times
 when backs and hips ached and things
 were ugly, too. This skirt conveys to the | eye an effect of lightness, and 1t does to | the wesrer also. There is 6 freedom and g swing about 1t, and we should all rejoice
 in it. FLoRKrTK.

 The city council of Lsmas, Iowa, recently passed an ordinance requiring that any person twice arrested for drunkenness shall be allowed to choose between treat ment at gold cure establishment and working on the city streets for ten days. This seems to operate as @ deterrent, for since the order was passed only one drunk ard has been arrested the second time. He preferred the gold cure to the street work.

CHINESE RECIPROCITY.


 The Chinese haven't gone yet, and the indications are that they will stay awhile longer. The Geary aot has been pro nounced constitutional, but 1t cannot very we'll be enforced for the reason that there is no money available for the purpose. The act carries an appropriation of $1O0,- 900, and 1t appears that only $35,0oo of that sum remains, with some bills still un- audited to be acted upon. It is estimated that 1t would cost to deport all the China men now in the country who have not complied with the law, more than $e. .0O0,- 900.
 There. are 10000 Chinamen in the United States, and they and their rulers are much excited. It Is said that there is also much excitement in China, and that retaliation can be expected If any attempt is made to enforce the Geary law. The Rev. Dr. Condit, the head of Presbyterian Chinese missions on the Pacific Coast, who has been engaged in Chinese mission work for over twenty years, and has spentmuch time in South China, saya that if the law should be enforced the Chinese govern ment would order all Americans to leave China at once. Every American building in China would be destroyed, either torn down or burned and the killing of many of the American residents could hardly be prevented. The first move would no doubt be the recalling of the Chinese minister and oonsuls now in the United States and the severing of all diplo- matic relations. Of course further traffic between China and this country would be out of the question. The missionaries and, in fact, all American residents out side of the larger cities, would have no protection whatever from the violence that they would certainly receive. It is 8 serious question now whether all the missionaries in the interior should not be recalled. Some are even now on their way back. eve have also sent word to stop all operations upon the chapel which is now being built by the Presbyterian Mission society in Canton. I should not be sur- prised to see the eonsuls and the minister of the Chinese government to the United States recalled at any time now; in fact, expect it."
 This would be 8 kind of reciprocity that wouldn't be very popular in this country.
