GAS STOVES.

The wonderful growth aud increased de-
mand for Gas Stoves during the last few

ton to all to call and examine the merits
of this Stove over all others. This interest

NEW YORK, April 10.-The semi annual
meeting Of the New York Presbytery was
held in the lecture room of the Scotch
church on West Fourteenth street this
morning. The DR.. Briggs case Is to come
up before the Washington assembly, but
the complexion of the delegation to Wash
ington is only problematical DIR. Charles
L. Thompson introduced a series of pre-
ambles and resolutions, one of which was
adopted giving the negative to the over
lures of the general assembly in the recent
revision of the confession of faith.
Before the adjournment of this morn
ing's session Dr.. Briggs advanced to the
moderator's desk and arising to question
of privilege appealed to the presbytery to
secure him fair treatment before the as
sembly when he would appear there as
appellee.
"When before the general assembly last
time" he said, II was hsrassed by the fact
that two members of the prosecuting COM
mittee were also members of the general
assembly and were allowed the privileges
of the floor at times when they were refus-
ed me, as I could appear only when my
case was called. This presbytery has made
me defend doctrines which I hardly sub
scribe to. 1t has made me appellee, and
while do not object to DR.. Sample as
commissioner, because he cannot hurt me
much, appeal to this body that DIR. Nc
Cook, the counsel for the prosecution, be
not also sent there IS a commissioner.
The presbytsry rsassembled this after
noon. The election Of delegates to the
general assembly resulted in the choice of
the following: Alexander, Tompkins,
Brown, Spinning, Booth, Chambers and
Wylie.
The first four names are supporters of
DR.. Briggs and the other three are anti
Briggs men. DR.. Brown, who is DR.. Briggs
counsel led, receiving 80 out of $50 votes
cast. The following lay commissioners
were elected:
N. A. Wheeler, F. S. Strong. Henry R.
Elliott, an Briggs men; A. P. Ketcham,
George E. Sterry and James Yesranoe,
anti Briggs. The delegation thus stands |
8 to in favor of DR.. Briggs Colonel Nc |

COLUMBIAN ENVELOPES.

The Authorities In the PostoMce De-
partment Declare That tho Sale VIII
Not be Suspended.
WASHINGTON, April 10-It has come to
the notice Of the postofice department,
through letters of inquiry from various
parts of the country, that some one has
set in circulation report that the depart
ment was going to suspend the sale of the
embossed envelope stamps of the Colum-
bian series on May IS. Why this particu-
lar date should have been chosen 1t is hard
to discover, as there has been no intention
to suspend the sale at any time.
The common suspicion is that the story
was started by dealers in cancelled stamps,
with a view to adding temporary value
to the stock they had already on hand. 1t
is the desire of the officers of the depart
ment who have charge of the correspond
ence on this subject to spread this denial
as widely as possible, and cave themselves

Tia Cost Of HIaRnificencs.

There have been times when a court was
splendid and nearly starving, but all that
has passed away, probably forever. The
prince of today who Is to be magnificent at
all must pay away money at every turn
and always be ready with more.
Everything costs. from the special train
which secures punctuality and freedom
from pressure to the rooms which loyal or
hospitable crowdinR render exceptionally
dear.
1t is all very we'll to speak OF such good
management, and of course there is no such
thing, and 1t is worth perhaps 80 per cent
of additional income, but no extent of good
management will reduce the cost of any
kind of magnificence or do away with the
feeling Of the innkeeper who charged a
royal guest franc apiece for eggs, not be-
cause eggs were scarce. but because kings
were.
We have heard Of charges paid by an In
dian viceroy at Paris hotel which would
have made Mr.. Vanderbilt vince, and there
is not an uneducated man in any land who,
If prince disputes his charges, does not
thenceforward become republican.
Nor within limits is this feeling altogeth-
er unreasonable, for the demands of princes,
which are usually only demands for free
dom, upset the usual routine, just as the
queens train, though her majesty asks
only little extra security and some pri-
vacy, upsets the routine traffic on the great
railway by which she travels.
Moreover, though extravaganza is a vice,
economy is often a foible, and one rather
sympathizes with the hint given by the
noble who assisted Louis Philippe in his
search after lost sovereign by lighting a
bank note. State, in fact, in our day costs
money, and it is as expensive to be u prince,
fyou live as prince, as to bea spendthrift
heir.-London Spectator.

The Vibrorneter.

The vibrometer, which is claimed to make
the deaf hear, Is In shape and size very
much like an ordinary banjo, with circular
sounding board and extended string board
A small electric motor transmits by suit
able mechanism a series of rapid taps or
vibrations to the sounding board, and these
are conveyed to the ear by tubes, the same
as In the phonoRraph The attachment by
which the vibration Is produced can be ad-
justed to different beverages, SO as to vary
its intensity, and can be regulated at from
to Is vibratory movements per second, q
speed which is only used in very bad eases.
A special treatment is involved in the
use of the strings of the instrument, which
are vibrated by the revolution Of wheel
studded with metallic picka In applying
these musical vibrations to the ear Of the
patient the tone selected must correspond
in pitch to that caused by the diseased con-
ditions of the ear In other words. there is
always a special note, the vibrations OF
which are more beneficial than others to
the abnormal ear and a primary consid-
Grafton is to determine this note. It is a
question of responsive vibration, illustra-
lions of which all instrumentalists are IA
miliar with. If there Is no tinuitus or ring
ing noise to guide the practitioner, he finds
whether the patient can hear high or low
sound, and high rate of vibration Is used
In treatment and vice versa
The class of patients who are immediately
benefited by the vibratory treatment are
those in whom the mucous membrane lining
the tympanic cavity and eustachian tubes
Is in a hypertrophic or morbidly enlarged
condition.-New York Telegram.

Any one who observes the movements Of
his tongue in speaking will find that there
occur no cases in which the adjustments
must have an exactness corresponding to
the extreme power Of discrimination which
the tip possesses. For speech this endow-
ment Is useless. Even were it useful it
could not be shown that it has been devel-
oped by survival of the fittest, for though
perfect articulation is useful yet imperfect
articulation has rarely such an effect as to
impede n man In the maintenance of his
life. If he is good workman, a Germans

A Frenchman who in place Of the sound

as teacher of music and dancing no less
than if he achieved the English pronuncia-
ton. Nay, even such an imperfection of
speech as that which arises from cleft pal
ate does not prevent a man from getting
on if he is capable. True, 1t may go against
him as a candidate for parliament or as an
"orator" of the unemployed But in the
struggle for life he is not hindered by the
effect to the extent of being less able than
others to maintain himself and his off

Hof the sweet expression and habitual Sc

Rs,irious Training of Japanese.

Little or no Importance is attached TO the
religious training of japanese children
Whether the parents be Buddhists or Shin
toists 1t matters not, for In either case the
children rarely take any part In the reli-
gious life of their parents or elders. and in
deed usually grow up in blissful ignorance
as to what it is all about. True, they may
be occasionally taken to the temple and
taught to rub their palms together, clap
thrice and incline their heads toward the
shrine as they toss their offering OF rim
through the wooden grating Of the huge
money till They may have some vague
notion that there Is something mentoious
in all this, but nothing more, although ev-
cry Japanese home has a latticed niche, OF

household Lsres and Penates, or Daikoku
and Ebisu as they appear in Japan.-Dr. w.

Byron and His Young Physictan,

1t is of Byron's Polidori that one has
heard in that model biography-the biog-
raphy in which the sedulous Moore sidled
and ambled In accompaniment to his noble
friends dramatic work. 1t is too clear that
Byron took little trouble to disguise the
fact that he found Polidori intolerable. The
young physician had become jealous Of
the growing intimacy of his noble patron
with Shelley" and plan for leaving him
out of an excursion on the lake of Geneva,
in which Shelley, Miss Goodwin and Miss
Clairmont were taking part, completed
this modification" In the soreness of his
feelings he INDUCED in some Incorporate
remonstrances, which Lord Byron indig-
nantly resented. and the usual bounds OF
courtesy being passed on both sides the
dismissal of Polidori appeared even to him
self inevitable. The young italian rushed
to his room, where he was interrupted
while attempting that fatal act which
two or three years afterwsrd he actually did
perpetrate."
Byron, to his credit, followed up the doc
tor with a reconciliation. Byron permitted
himself to boast to his follower, who in
childish irritation asked him, What. after
all, can you do that cannot" Since
you force me to say" was the solemn reply,
81 can swim across that river. l can snuff
out that candle with q pistol shot at 20
PAGES, and have written poem of which
Il, 600 copies sold in one day" All through,
