had before him for trial in his court this
morning ex-policeman Cash Bremen.
Yesterday Mr.. Bremen, while under
the influence of liquor, went to the
police station to see Captain Webster,
SO he claimed. While there he began
abusing the Mayor and Lieutenant
Smith and the police officers generally,
charging them with not having o due
regard for the truth, and expressing a
desire to wipe up the earth with the
Lieutenant. Officer Davis, who was on
duty at the police station, locked him
up, and Mayor Strauss this morning
imposed fines amounting to $3.50, and
will require him to give a bond of $3.50
to behave himself for the next year.

Queer Goings-on in Chill.

A remarkable occurrence has taken
place on hill called Cerro Negro,
situated in the mineral district of
Condoriaco. At spot on this hill
between the Molle gully on the west
and the Tocobano gully on the east
an enormous subsistence of ground
has taken place. The length Of the
subsidence is four squares by two and
half in width, or in round numbers
about forty English acres. The depth
Of the subsistence for about half its
length is eighteen metres, and from
eight to ten in the other half. About
the centre there is an eminence
resembling an island, which is sur
rounded by fosse of from fifteen to
twenty metres deep.
The surface OF the subsistence is
broken here and there by assures Of
varying depths, and toward the CEN
tre the ground is formed of Il light
powder in which man who was at
tempting to reach the centre sank up
to his waist. All the springs OF water
in the adjacent gulleys have become
completely dry. All round the emf
nence in the centre Of the subsi-
dcnce the earth appears to be in
movement rs if trickling into n depth
below. On the side OF the subsistence
great pieces Of the hill appear to be
in process OF segregation, and enor-
nous landslides appear to be immi-
nent. The trees and scrub on this
side OF the hill are withered and APP
pear to be dying. No gases or vapors
issue from the assures in the ground.

to the spot to study this extraordin-
AIRY phenomenon.-[Chilian Times.

The OK Cart.

One would scarcely expect to find
OK carts made in this city, but they
are made here by one msnufacturer
as part Of general wagon-making
business.
The sale OF OK carts in this country
is decreasing. Here the use OF them
has always in large measure been
confined to the rough and hilly farms
OF the New England and Middle
States, and even in those States they
are now giving way to carts and
wagons drawn by horses. Old farmers
brought up to use OK carts continue
to use them but their sons do not /;
the younger men buy, not oxen, but
horses; not OK carts, but wagons and
horse carts. How much Of this
change is due to the fact that the
stony, hilly lands are now pretty
well cleared and that oxen are less
needed for ploughing, how much is
due to the spirit Of the age with its
quicker movement in all the fields
OF labor, how much to II greater in
clination toward luxury, it might be
difficult to say; but the OK cart is
passing away. 1t is still used, how
ever, TO some extent. 1t may yet be
met, perhaps, in the haying field,
perhaps under the spreading elms at
the village blacksmith's shop. The
cart met amid such surroundings is
quite as likely to have been made in
the city as in the country, for they
are all substantially alike.
The only important changes that
have been made in OK carts in many
years have been the substitution
of iron for wooden axles and the
broadening Of the face Of the wheel;
all OK carts are now built with iron
axles and four-inch tires. New York
city built OK carts are sold in western
Connecticut, in western Massachu-
sctts and in New York, and, occasion
ally, in remoter parts OF this coun-
try. There is steady demand for
them from the planters of the West
Indies and OF Central and South
America. An OK cart costs about
$l0O.-[ New York Sun.

a Searching Examin alton.

A sailor who desired to re-enlist in
the service OF the navy for cruise
wns rejected by the Examining Board
for defective eyesight. He had made
n good record, and Naval Academy
officers, including the surgeons who
had been compelled to make an un-
favorable report in his case, inter-
ested themselves in his behalf. He
finally went to Washington, and,
armed with the recommendation of
the Naval Academy, urged his claims
upon the Surgeon General.

ument out that Window" asked that
official.
Yes, sir" promptly replied the
sailor.
TO test his eyesight as well as his
honesty, another question was pro-
pounded.

Without hesitation, the sailor re-
piled, NO, sir,

examining officer. Your eyesight

The Work Of a Dairy School.

The instruction is given, first, by
lectures; second, by work at the sep
arators, the churns, and the cheese
vats, as well as in the laboratory.
Lectures are given in the following
branches: The breeds and breeding
Of dairy COWS, the feeding of dairy
COWS, diseases OF dairy COWS, the
chemistry of milk and its products,
bactcriology Of the dairy products,
physical problems connected with
the dairy, and the care and manage
ment Of the boiler and engine. These
subjects are presented to the class
by different professors Of .he univer-
sity.
The practical work is taught in the
butter and cheese room, rs well as in
the laboratory. The picture Of the
separating room shows the arrange
ment of the separators. OF these all
the latest and most improved pat
terms are kept, as well as Of the but
ter extractor. 1t may be in order to
state, for the benefit OF the many
readers who never were inside of a
creamery or farm dairy, that a
cream separator or a centrtuge, as it
is sometimes called, is n machine for
separating the cream from the skim
milk by means Of a centrifugal force.
A strong steel bowl is made
to rotate by hand-power or steam, at
a speed Of five to eight thousand
revolutions per minute; by this
means the heavier portion of the
milk, the skim milk, is separated
from the lighter portion, the cream,
and both are collected in separate
vessels.
The work in the creamery room in
cludes the handling and care Of the
cream previous to churning, the
churning, and the working and pack
ing Of the butter. In the cheese
room, where there are eight milk
watts, each of capacity of three hun
dred pounds, thirty-two students may
work at the same time; the various
steps in cheese-making, from the
proper handling Of the milk to the
curing of the cheese, are here learn

1t has fallen to the lot OF George
Miller, of this city, TO discover the
only never failing weather prophet. "
He claims that he has frog in his
cellar which is an infallible weather
prognosticator. Always previous TO
a storm he croaks, and heavy and
prolonged storms are indicated by
coarser tones and prolonged croak-
ing. When the rain commences to
fall his frogship ceases his cultural
vociferating and remains silent until
the storm is about to stop. when his
discordant voice is again heard.

reau is not in it with that frog

are usually procurable in the shops.
ROSETTES AND KNOTS.

Roscttes and knots play an import
ant part in summer dress, writes
Floriane. They are used to give an
accent OF form or OF color, or both,
and they are placed on costume
with wonderful effect. =
| have seen the skirt OF dinner
gown trimmed with nothing but three
roscttes, yet it looked elaborate. The
gown was OF MORO silk, and these
rosettes, OF velvet, were placed to
make diagonal line across the front,
one toward the left side, one in the
middle and one near the bottom ON
the right, and the effect was rs great
rs IL continuous garland crossed
the front.
But these rosettes are something
more than mere loops Of ribbon ar
ranged in circles together, such as
the uninitiated usually understand
by rosettc. They are made with
an art quite new-they are, indeed,
nearly flowers. 1t would be impossi-
bic for mere layman to explain !;
only an artist whose fine fingers
/ iluNe ltUTIlcu lo luSnlOll SuCn InlnHS
knows how it is done, and she could
not tell anybody else.
All | know is that these bits-they
are not always loops--of velvet or
silk or chiffon that ray out from the
center are crushed or curled or other-
wise manipulated till they are rs
sensitive with life as IL they had
grown.
Sometimes the ends elongate and
roll under like the petals OF lily or
else they are triangular to tit corner
as ut the neck Of n jacket, with n
crimped-ruil,e look round the apex
and long frond falling out into each
of the long corners, or may be they
are tive-rayed, like a rose, or eight
starred, or have a curious bisymme-
try like the orchid.
One of these petaled velvet bows
fastens the great lace collar on n
dinner corsage, with a diamond pin
IL you like placed like a dewdrop ut

and probably was much superior to
the flesh of snakes and rats and such
