A City Kitchen window.

A German hausfrau in city cottage
home cultivates a few savory herbs in a
novel, pretty fashion. She has no yard
garden. In the south window hangs a
wire basket, filed with rich soil.
Through the wire meshes luxuriant
curled parsley leaves peep. The leaves
are ornamental, and the entire basket is
mass OF living green foliage.
In the east window two wire baskets
hang. One contains chives, the second
nasturtiums, orange and scarlet.
The baskets are filled with earth, and
the plants planted in the summer Ere
the winter has arrived the plants are
green and thrifty. Plucking the leaves
is help to their growth. The baskets
are frequently placed in the soaking
rains, the plants kept well washed, ft
for garnishing purposes.
When flowers are scarce the little
hausirau adds scarlet, pink, yellow or
tinted tissue paper flower to the green
foliage. She confesses to entertaining
the desire to make her kitchen bright
aud pretty with the limited means she
commands, and she succeeds in SO do
ing.

1t is true that London has frequently
injected Paris with her numerous dress
crazes. The mantle which is most likely
to obtain this autumn has tight fitting
bodice, richly trimmed, loose skirts,
long fronts, but not falling fiat from the
neck, shaped carefully and fitted and
falling down in stole-like ends from
where the rest of the garment finishes, a
finger length short OF the knees. The
sleeves will be OF another material, but
seldom OF different color. They will
be loose and wide, but not exaggerated,
and the cuffs will be OF the same mate
rial as the mantle itself. There are in
dications that collars will be high again,
which will be comfortable.

The Six Companies Aiding in Kidding
the Country of Chinese HIghbinders.
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Oct. 1S.-The
Chinese Six Companies now appear to
be eager to take advantage OF the Geary
act before the McCreary act becomes a
law. The Six Companies are anxious
to get rid OF the highbinders and worst
criminal element among the Chinese in
San Francisco. To this end the Six
Companies are aiding the police to ar.
rest, convict and deport hiphbinders.
Yesterday sixty-two Chinese were ar.
rested by the police as Migrants. The
agents OF the Six Companies and police
detectives inspected the whole crowd at
the city prison. Fifteen OF the culprits
we're released as they were found to be
hard working Chinese. The remaining
forty-seven will be arrested under the
Geary law and an attempt made to de.
port them. The Six Companies will
furnish evidence against them. The
Six Companies and Chinese merchants
held meeting last night and resolved
to aid the police in Kidding the city Of
the iniesting highbinders.

Having a string in the end OF the
broom handle wherewith to hang'it up
by used to be one OF the tests OF good
housekeeper. There is a little device,
however, that is better than the string,
which, as every one knows, is always
wearing through just when one is too
busy to put in new one. In a con.
veuient place to hang up your broom
drive two nails just far enough apart to
admit the handle, and then put in the
broom upside down, with the shoulder
resting on the nails. A broom that lie
washed occasionally in pearline or soda
suds and dried quickly, handle up, will
last longer than one that fails to receive
this attention.

Ffom h0usthttWTs
So many descriptions have been given
from time to time, in the numerous
magazines of these necessary articles,
and all have been go alike, and when
finished the labor and time, not count
ing the money expended, have been
really greater than anticipated, that l
venture to send directions for making
one which is both simple and unique:
Take a common pillow aud cover it
with old gold cambria; get piece Of
dotted Swiss muslin, or, if you have any
old lace curtains, cast aside, take and
cut out the best parts and make into a
long slip, leaving both ends open, the
sIiplto be five inches longer than the
pillow. This covering can be readily
washed when soiled, and is inexpensive
yet attractive, for white is always very
dainty, and the oldgold showing through
the lace produces a novel and pretty
effect.

You never saw poet or a painter
with large, coarse ears that stand out
from the head like: extended wings.
That kind OF an auricular appendage
betokens coarseness of mind. A long,
narrow ear that lies fat to the head is a
sign Of pugnacity. Never trust a man
with thin, wafer-like ear. He was
born hypocrite, if not thief. A very
small ear betokens trifing mind,
lacking decision. Ears set very high on
the head indicate narrowness OF mind.
A large, well-shaped ear that does not
spread itself to the breeze, is indicative
OF generosity Most of the world-com-
pellers had large ears and well-devel-
oped noses. Although there are so
many millions of people in the world
no two pairs OF ears are alike. Each has
a marked individuality.

ATTACKED DR. BRIGGS.
Rev. Dr. Sunderland Publicly Accused
 Him

Him.
 WASHINGTON, May 29-The absorbinu topic in church circles today is sensa. tional incident which occurred in the First Presbyterian church, the pastor of which is the Rev. Dr. Sunderland. The church was crowded to its utmost capacity yes terday, in the congregation being many commissioners to the general assembly.
 The president and Mrs. Cleveland, ac companied by the Rev. Dr. w. Merle Smith, pastor of the church attended by Mrs. Cleveland in New York, who is a guest at the White House and the Rev. k. ]. Thurber, @ brother of the private secre- tary to the president were present. Dr. Smith had been invited to preach the ser. mon, and took for his text Bear ye one another's burdens"
 He spoke at length on the Evangeliza- tion of the masses, stating that one-half of our population was out of the church, 15 per cent of our young men and two-thirds of the laboring classes not being within its influence The average Presbyterian church of 115 members, he said, was bringing in only eight additional members a year.
 The young preacher charmed his hearers by his eloquent plea for union in the church. At the conclusion of Dr. Smiths address Dr. Sunderland arose and said:
 II am sure we have all enjoyed Dr. Smiths sermon this morning. But there is one important omission. He neglected to state the cause of the dissension and dis traction in the Presbyterian church at this time-the reason why the church has failed to accomplish what it ought to. want here and now to state the cause. That cause is Dr. Briggs. l would not be in that mans shoes today for all the world. Let us sing hymn No. 533."

Story of a Jealous once Seeker.

A story is related of a French official who was possessed of a very pretty wife and a particularly jealous temperament. This official had frequently applied with out success for certain post. At length his wife proposed to interview the chief in person and see if she could obtain for her husband what he had failed to pro- cure for himself. On this being sug- gested the latter remained silent for 8 considerable time, fuctuating between ambition and jealousy. At last he de- vised safe course. "Yes, my dear, you have my sanction, but upon one condi- tion only-that you paint your nose a deep red" The lady, it is needless to say, did not proceed with the interview upon these terms. It was afterward commonly said, however, that, the story having reached the chiefs ears, he good naturedly appointed the carsfal husbaud te the post..-London Truth.

 Davis. So far as her habit was concerned she might have passed for typical young American matron-robed in a pretty light gray silk, with puffed sleeves, and made in degree of fulness in the skirt just the least bit suggestive of a substitute for crinoline. But there was hint of the Spanish leaning toward rich color effects in the small turban shaped gray cap, heav- fly trimmed with black lace and pro- nounced red and green feathers.
 The royal train arrived in Washington at SEQ D. m. An immense crowd of peo- pie gathered in the vicinity of the Penn sylvania railroad station more than an hour before the train arrived.
 The infanta, Secretary Gresham, Minis ter Muruga and Prince Antonio entered the presidents carriage, the cavalrymen sa- luted and the procession began to move up Pennsylvania avenue toward the Arling- ton. Four buglers on horseback led and with the four troops of cavalry one of which was composed of colored soldiers from the Fighting Ninth. formed the es- sort for the royal party. Six sergeants of cavalry acted as body guard to the prin- cess, and following her carriage came car riages containing her suite and the mem bers of the receiving party. The apartments occupied by the princess and her suite at the Arlington are historic. Though annexed to the hotel, they form a separate house. It was the old residence of Charles Sumner, and is but stone's throw distant from the White House
 A large bunch of sweet peas stood on a table in the parlor from Mrs. Curry. Other floral gifts were around, but the chief among them rested upon the table in the princess private drawing room on the sec ond floor. It was tribute from Mrs. Cleveland, and consisted of huge basket of magnificent American beauties, orchids and lilies of the valley.
 WASHINGTON, May 22.-The Princess Eu- lalie is sightseeing today. Under the guild Rnce of Commander Davis she and her party are fitting around the government buildings, where everything is thrown open | for the inspection of the royal guest. The Infanta Eulalie spent her first Sun day in the United States in the retirement of her hotel, exceptinga a brief walk, attend snce upon church and a ride in the after noon.
 WASHINGTON, May 21-The fact that | President Cleveland did not return the call at the White House of the Infanta Eulalie and her suite, but permitted Mrs. Cleve- | land and the ladies of the cabinet to act in his stead, has caused considerable com ment, especially in diplomatic circles. The president, however, is unconcerned, and the precedent established during his former administration is cited as justification for | his action. When Queen Kapiolani was here and visited the president he did just | ls he did in this instance.
 | WASHINGTON, May g. - The Infanta Eulalie attended an unofficial dinner ten- iered her by Hon. J. l.. NJ, Curry, ex-min- ster to Spain and Mrs. Curry.
