SUNSET.

Hol sound the alarm-the western sky's on
fire;
The flames dance wildly DER each fieecy spire,
Staining cloud castles with their crimson
glow,
Rejecting glory on the earth below.
But seel from out the cast, faint flushed with
red,
The ghosts Of darkness como with stealthy
tread;
The flames fierce progress they full soon
arrest
And quench the mighty confagration in the
west.

spiders, webs for Telescopes.

The astronomers of the naval observa-
tory have looked all over the world for
spiders webs. Such gossamer flalnents
spun by industrious arachnids are util-
lied in telescopes for cross lines extended
at right angles with each other across
the field Of view, so as to divide the lat
ter into mathematical spaces. Threads
Of cobwcb are employed for the purpose
because they are wonderfully strong for
their exceeding inenees, and also for the
reason that they are moi affected by
moisture or temperature, neither ex-
panding nor contracting under any con-
ditions.
Specimens were obtained from China
because it was imagined that the large
spiders of that country would perhaps
produce particularly excellent quality
of web. However, it was found that the
best web is spun by spiders Of the United
States, such as are plentiful in the neigh
borhood of Washington. Accordingly
expeditions are made early in June each
year to get from the fences and barns
hereabouts the cocoons of the big 'tur-
tie back" spiders. Each cocoons is com
posed of single silken filament wound
round and round, though there are apt
to be some breaks in it where Mistress
Spider left off work for time.
Attempts have been made to use the
cocoons of spiders like those of silk
worms, and exquisite fabrics have been
manufactured from them. Unfortu-
nately it was found impossible to make
the industry commercial success, ow-
ing to the combative inclination Of these
creatures. When kept together they
viii always gobble each other up iii q
short time, the final result being sin

cocoon. Washington Cor. Boston Tran

Washington gets perfect illustration
of the truth which is contained in that
trite saying, "The king is dead; long live
the kingr' on Inauguration Day. With
the administration of the oath presi-
dent becomes private citizen, and a
private citizen becomes the occupant of
an Office which Mr.. Abram S. Hewitt,
Of New York, has described as the grand
est political office upon earth. He who
was president in the morning and now
becomes ex-president usually goes away
without any formal courtesy at parting.
Mr.. Hayes was driven from the Capitol
directly to the railway station, where
his family was awaiting him, and started
for his home in Ohio, and within an hour
had as narrow an escape from death as
any man ever experiences who is in a
railway accident.
General Arthur quilted the White
House for good when he left it to escort
his successor to the Capitol. After the
oath was administ cred to Cleveland Ar
thur went as a guest to the house of
Secretary of State Frelinghuysen. He
remained in Washington, however, long
er than any ex-president ever did, since
he was Mr.. Frelinghuysen's guest for
nearly month. Mr.. Cleveland quilted
Washington Immediately after the in
augural ceremonies, and it is understood
that President Harrison will leave the
capital on the afternoon of Inauguration
Day.
The indications are that the military
display, while it will be imposing, may
not exceed in numbers the military es-
cort rendered at some other inaugura-
tions. At General Grants second inau-
gural and upon the occasion of Garfeld's
Inauguration there was very large mill
tary attendance, both from the United
States army and from the state militia.
But ii the military display is not SO
large as others have been the civic bod
les in the procession promise greatly to
exceed any other demonstration Of that
kind. Conspicuous in it will be the rep
resentatives of Tammany Hall. This del
egation will be under the direction OF
General Mcmahon, who is the grand mar
shal, and will have the right of line, and
the Talnmany leaders are making more
elaborate preparations for the event than
they have ever done for any other pub
lie demonstration in which they have
participated There may be 5000 or
4 600 Of them IN line. They will all be
dressed alike. They will wear silk hats

land was exceptionally fortunate when
he was first inaugurated. Those who
live in Washington look forward to
the inauguration ceremonial with
keenest anticipations Of pleasure, which
are always-telnpered somewhat by
apprehension that the weather may be
bad. President Harrison was inaugu-
rated on day when the rain was both
heavy and chilly. Garield's inaugura-
ton took place amid the most unpleas-
ant atmospheric conditions, although
day was raw and cloudy, and those who
were spectators suffered considerably,
especially the company which was per-
mitted to sit upon the platform erected
at the east portico, and upon which the
president stood when he took the oath
and delivered his inaugural
Perhaps the most trying Inauguration
day was that which occurred on the 4th
of March, 1873 General Grant was
then to take the oath of president for a
second time, and arrangements had been
made for very brilliant military and
civic display. On the evening Of the Sd
of March bitter cold wave set in, in
creasing in severity during the night, SO
that ON the morning Of the 4th Washing
ton was suffering as it seldom suffers
from cold accompanied by high wind.
1t was as near an approach to a blizzard
as the capital has ever experienced. The
military suffered very greatly, some of
them were overcome with the cold, and
the cadets from West Point and the
naval academy who were not well pro-
tected were completely demoralized,
some of them suffering from frost bitten
ears and fingers. An immense throng
had gathered in Washington to witness
this ceremonial, but many did not dare
to venture forth and face the cold
But when Cleveland appeared to take
the oath the sun smiled upon him. The
air was as ballny as it is in Washington
in May. The suggestion of summer was
given by the warmth Of the day, by the
songs of the birds, and by the buds, which.
tempted by the warm south winds, were
almost ready to burst into early bios

nARRIsoN's 1NAuGuRATIoN.

The managers Of the railway COM
panies report that the indications are
that the largest throng will be gathered
in Washington ever witnessed there
upon an Inauguration Day. The facili-
ties of even some of the greater railways
will be taxed to the utmost to transport
these persons, and many Of the organiza-
tions have already made arrangements
for special trains. 1t is estimated that
there are likely to be more than 100000
strangers in Washington upon that day
If Mr.. Cleveland has the experience of
some of his predecessors he will find that
there are some more exacting duties for
him than participation in the ceremo-
MES, excepting that one which requires
him to take the oath. General Garfield
returned from the Capitol to the White
House still perplexed about his cabinet
and it was not until after he had attend
ed the inaugural ball that he was abso-
lutely certain of whom his official family
was to be composed. Mr.. Cleveland was
not troubled in that way in 1885, since
cabinet problems had ceased to perplex

ton Day. Yet be was harassed by ap-
plications for appointments before he
had been president six hours, and after
he returned from the inaugural ball be
spent an hour or two reading some of
the Endorsements and applications, SC
that it was past o'clock before he was
able to seek his bed. He was up at on
the following morning. and spent an
hour OF two before breakfast in exaulin-
ing his correspondence.
The zexcitenent and mental strain
which the Inauguration ceremonies and
the experiences which the first few weeks
of occupancy of the exalted Office entail
are usually very exhaugting, and Presi-
dent Harrison has said that he was more
fatigued by his first months experience
in the White House than he had been by
the work Of year after he became fa-
miliar with the duties imposed upon
him. 1t was to recover from this strain
that General Garfield planned the vaca-
ton which the assassin's bullet prevent
ed just as he was entering the railway
station to begin it. Mr.. Cleveland, how
ever, bore these fatigues without appar-
ent WEAKNESS, and his familiarity with
the Office causes him to look forward to
his second experience with none of the
anxiety which he felt when he first be-
came president of the United States.

The saddest information lies within that one

Itserves to sever souls for aye, for who is there

If hearts will ever meet again when once they

1t carries not tone unkind, no wrath does it

The September cotton report of
the Department of Agriculture,
just out, shows decline of seven
points from the August report,
being 1874 for this month against
80.4 of last month.
This is the worst showing for
cotton since 1881. Correspondents
of the department attribute this
falling off to the weather. CATER
pillars and boil worms, army and
leaf worms, and rust.
For these reasons and others
cotton is advancing, and perhaps
it may yet reach the, what would
seem now, almost fabulous figures
of 10 cents, thus realizing Gen.
Buffers prophecy of few days
since-a prophecy by the way, that
if the General will make verify,
will keep him in the United States
Senate until the COWS come home.
