REPAIRING THE LINEN.

In the first place, prevention here, as else

be carefully scrutinized whenever launder

way they should be REINFORCED by neat and
careful darning. 1t is remarkable how
much this may be practiced by carefully
selecting embroidery cottons or floss to
match the material Of the linen and using
a def hand with the needle.
Sometimes it is necessary to stitch Bit

ticle to be repaired, to serve as a base for
the mending operations; or to hold tn,
parts in place. piece of stiff paper may b,
basted on the back side, over which tn,

material, carrying the anchoring stitches
an inch or more into the firm cloth, may b,
performed. When the hole is mended, tn,
paper is removed, and if care has been eX

tect the spot.

SAYS Madeline was After Money Not The
Redress Of Any Wrongs.

WAsnfSGros, April Fin the Pollard
Breckintiige suit, today. Major Batter
worth continued his argument and laid con-
81 ierabie emphasis on the frequent use OF
the expression in Miss Pollards letter TO
Rodes Come early, We will 90 see
mamma" Major Batterwsrth conveyed the
clear impression to his hearers that he
thought the expression used 80 frequently
vas merely a code phrase for going out for
some wrongful or secret purpose. He re-
ferred TO Miss Pollard as pawn
on an immoral chess board, moved
whether the PLAYER was near it
or not" This was apropos OF Miss Pol
Iard's statement that she wanted to take
her baby and 20 out Of the defendants life
and the defendant would not let her. He
said Madeline Pollard might have been
good woman In the eyes Of the world, to-
day, IL she had carried out her part of tn.
contract with the defendant TO leave
Washington aud die out Of his life. He
declared ridiculous the story Of the plain
tin that on the very day that she returned
to Washington, after not having seen the
defendant for long time and when not a
line was exchanged bets cen them, the de-
PENDANT asked her to marry him.
Major Butterwo rth took up the calls on
Mrs. Blackburn by the defendant and
plaintiff to tell her that they we're engaged
merely for the purpose of setting right in
Mrs. Blackburn's mind, the statement of
Miss Pollard that Col. BrecA inridge had
promised 10 marry her. lie took occasion
to picture Miss Pollard as an adventures,

man whom she had in her power through

man and beast it is invaluable. Without

all seasonings.
Bread is the staff of life" but without
salt it could hardly be eaten. Indeed. veg
etables, meat, bread and butter are almost
tasteless without salt. Even water, ma
lures drink, contains this essential ingre
dent. 1t is necessary to the proper conduc-
hon of digestion, supplying hydrochloric
acid for the gastric juice and soda for the
bile and pancreatic fluid. The healthy con-
dition of the higher animals, especially cat
tie and horses, demands quantity of salt.
Instinctively the dumb creatures seem to
know this, as is demonstrated in their in
tense liking for it. In connection with the
manufacture of chemicals and in mining
pursuits it is Of vast importance.
Sodium forms with chlorine but a single

In this manner little crystal on each of

sinks below the surface of the liquid, and a
new system of crystals groups itself in
IDENTICAL manner, forming another row OF
cubes about the upper edges of the first
row formed. Similar buildings of rows of
such crystals repeat themselves, resulting in
a cube crystal, the face of which resembles
an inverted trough or pyramid formed of
tiny cubes.

SOMETHING LIKE A FIRE
A CORNER OF BUILDINGS GUTTED
EARLY THIS MORNING.
Broadway and Fourth Streets Was the
Scene of the Confsgration.
Tho Damage Con-
siderable.

A costly Gre. evidently OF incendary
origin, occurred shortly after IL O'Clock
this morning. when the buildings on the
northeast corner OF Broadway and
Fourth street were gutted by fames..
The alarm was turned in from box 40,
and the department soon had two
streams Of water playing on the burning
buildings, which were ruined beyond
repair.
The fire evidently broke out in tue
rear Of Dsnfer's upholstering establish
ment, at 229 West Fourth. From here
the flames spread to the plumbing shop
of D. Kavanaugh. 227 West Fourth, and
comp mpletely burned the inside out OF the
place. The adjoining store, No. 225. was
the Haber Bros. & Co.'S real estate Office,
which was damaged s75 The Electric
Dye works, still further east, were
slightly damaged.
To the west OF the starting place OF
the fire waS the grocery store oil 7. e..
Randall. What the fire didn't burn the
water destroyed, and it is sale to say
the entire stock OF groceries was hope
lessly destroyed. The damage on this
store will amount to over $1,000. The
adjoining shoeshop OF l.. Merkochatz
was also burned out. causing 500 loss.
An adjoining residence on the north,
No. 354 South Broadway, owned by M.
L. Lane and family, was slightly
scorched.
Everything in each of the stores was
either burned or badly damaged. None
OF the stock, or but little of it, even in
the plum bing department, will be saved
aB good as new.
The buildings were owned by U. T.
Johnson, and most of the losses are
covered by insurance. They were all
one story and of frame, and the wood
burned like tinder. Though no sub
stantial evidence WAS secured. the
fire is thought to be of incendary
origin, "a man was seen to run away
from the building shortly before the
fire.
MIR. Johnson's loss on the building
will be extensive, as a new structure is
badly needed.

A NEW ENTERPRISE.

The Los Angeles Gas and Electric Manu-

The Los Angeles Gas and Electric
Manufacturing company has been in
corporated for the purpose of manufac-
turing gas and electric fixtures and fancy
brasswork, also copper, silver, nickel
and brass plating. The principal stock
holders are Max Meyb berg, Moritz Mey-
berg ands others. The new company is
to succeed the gas fixture department Of
Mey berg Brothers. This branch OF the
business has been steadily growing, and
it has been made necessary to entirely
separate this line from the other part Of
the business.
The new enterprise has put in most
expensive plsnt of fine machinery which
will enable them to manufacture great
part of their own fixtures, and the gen.
tlemen advancing the object deserve
great credit for their energies in promot-
ing an industry badly needed in the
