The Care of Lamps.

It is unnecessary to wash and boil the burners of lamps more than once year if they have been rightly cared for. Keep n small, stiff brush tan old tooth brush will do,, and when cleaning the lamps brush the burners off with this, wiping afterward with soft flannel cloth. This will keep them bright and free from dust. To trim the wick turn it up, and holding the burner SO that the charrcd portions will not drop on it simply brush it off. thus allowing it to trim itself It is almost impossible to trim n wick evenly with scissors, To polish metal lamps rub them off with . soft cloth on which has been poured q few drops of kerosene. To polish the chimncys saturato small cloth with . little alcohol and wash of tho grimo and smoke inside. Wash the brushes and cloths used ill the care of lamps of ten

Belief That the National Strike wnf End
 In a FizzIe-The Arrest Of Debs Has
 pampened the Ardor of the Men. -5 CHICAGO, July Il.-It was learned this morning that fully one-third of the labor ton whatever, on the proposition to strike Most of the trades unions have decided to postpone action until Friday. The arrest of Debs and his lieutenants last night has certainly dampened the ardor of some of the other leaders and has caused many of the members of various labor unions to believe that . universal strike will be a hzzle. The police have in custody the man who tried to assassinate yice-President wicks of the Pullman company but will not diyulge his name.
 --CHIcAGo. Ill. July 1.-The general strike did not materialize to-day. The blockade appears to be thing of the past. This morning Nelson.

Last night the stock yard ofncials notified the various roads that their tracks were clear. and that they would de- liver all trains called for.

 wilmot has put down a piece of walk for Barnum and Mrs Conran on Church street. McCabe will put down Neary's and William Freeman's soon. The street is in terrible condition for travel at pres ent. Up to Sunday last not anything had been done in the way of stone crushing for top dressing at the town farm. A couple of days rain would settle the road mate rially.
 Another one of Barnum's stores is being fitted up for a grocery and is very nearly ready to occupy.
 Preparations are made for the moving of the school building purchased by Harry Pagan, to Water street.
 If some industry employing from forty to fifty hands should purchase the remains of the old reclaiming plant. and start up business it would help the lower end ot the town materially. The engine and boilers are both in good condition.

THE CARPET BEETLE.
How to Circumvent This Household Pest, as Told by Two Eminent Authorities

How to Circumyent This Household Pest,
 as Told by Two Eminent Authorities.
 The carpet beetle, also known as "the buffalo bug, was introduced from Europe, and though it has hardly been in the country 20 years has thoroughly made its home among us and has done incalculable damage. The larva-the form in which it is usually found when pursuing its ravageS beneath the car pets-measures. when it has reached maturity. three sixtcenthS of an inch ill length.
 The earliest beetle. emerge ill Octo- Der and continue appearing during the fall, winter and spring months. They pair soon after appearance, and the fe- male almost at once lays eggs in cracks of the floor and in hooks, so that dur ing the next summer the carpet may be yet more eaten. The beetle is quite small-smaller than would be ordina- rily expected, considering the size of the larva-being only about one-eighth of an inch long by one-twelfth of an inch broad.
 Professor w. Beuttenmuller, entomol- ogist at the Natural History museum, says that carpets that are frequently taken up and shaken are little, if at all, damaged. for they are no longer a com fortablc dwelling place for this insect, which is of a secretivc and retiring dis position.
 It seems probable that the pest was imported simultaneously by carpet deal CTS in New York and Boston and thence shipped i'll goods to inland cities. At the present day this insect is ono of the greatest household pests in the New England states. It destroys carpets and all wooden goods, while furs do not escape its attacks.
 The beetles fly to the windows and may often be caught upon the panes of glass. They are also captured out of doors upon flowers. The insect gencr- ally attacks the carpets around the bor- ders of the room. The remedies are benzoline and naphthaline. but perhaps fne pest way to get rid Of them Is 10 lay n wet cloth over the carpet and iron with n hot 1atiron. The steam general ed will certainly kill every larva it comes in contact with. Other remedies are camphor, pepper, tobacco, turpcn- tine and carbolic acid.
 Inquiry was made of one of the lar | BSsV carpet uealSrs tis to "nat uc atINlsSu as the best way to destroy the pest. His reply, as reported in the New York Tribune, was as follows: Take every piece of furniture out of the room and open every door and window, and if it is windy day all the better. Take a stiff broom and sweep over the carpet with a strong hand, paying particular attention to the edges and those spots over which furniture has been resting. This done, say once month. will effec- tually keep away tho carpet bug.
 It may be added that tho name buff falo bug was not derived from the city of that name in this state, but was giv en to the insect years ago ill California owing to its miniature resemblance to the now almost extinct animal.

Fashion Echoes.

The Duchess of York is the name giv- en to the English walking hat that has proved most popular this season.
 Pretty summer dresses are made of cream tinted indian muslins embroider- ed in delicate colors.
 Tyrolese is the name of hat with an indented crown which is to supersede the sailor. It is trimmed with a broad black ribbon band and stiff bow and two quills at one side.
 China moire ribbons of delicate colors are used in very simple ways for bright ening up black crepon gowns, and also when it is desired to add a color to dresses of white crepon or muslin.
 A new feature in black silk dresses is that of having the front of the waist open on a full gathered blouse of ecru batiste wrought in open embroidery and placed over white or 0 colored silk. Such Q waist has basque back with short jacket front.
 For yachting are gowns of navy blue linen of the thick heavy quality.

New  Goods.

Did you see those ladies Fancy Silk Waists we sold so many of Saturday at S2.69 each? They are made of fine qual- ity Habutai Silk in stripes. All in desir- able shades, most of them cream white grounds with colored stripes in pink. blue. grey. navy. red and black. What we slarted to say was that we should have a lot of them ready to deliver Tuesday morn ing at the same price. Just think of it a Silk Waist made from good quality silk for g 69.
 A little lot of 12Ic Wash Goods will go on sale Tuesday morning at Gle per yard This is not a lot of cheap goods bought to put out at a low price. but consists largely of goods selected from our regular stock, that have not. perhaps more than enough in a piece for one dress. There may be one hundred dress patterns in the lot and there are certainly more than fifty differ ent styles 10 select from. If you would get good selection you must come for them Tuesday or they will be gone.
 It is not to be wondered at. that we are selling SO many wash goods. We have just what the ladies all want. Friday and Saturday of last week. we sold quantities of Wash Goods at 12l cents per yard. To prices than that, but most any lady would rather pay 12i for 25c goods than to buy cheaper goods at lower price. We shall put on sale Tuesday a big line of Wish Goods, similar to those advertised for last Friday and Saturday. All we can say is that they are very good value and will go quickly. Fifteen pieces of regular 25c satines will go at the same price-l2Ic These are mostly dark colors-navy ground with white figures, also few black grounds in stripes and figures.
 Have you seen the summer corset we are selling for 4Sc. It is n ventilated, open wove corset. good fitting and we'll made. Every lady we have sold them to, is pleased with them. and why shouldn't she be? They are bargain and most ladies know a bargain when they see it.
 For this week we shall sell, a specially good Jersey Vest in White and Ecru at 12h cents each. Don't get these goods confounded with those everybody is selling for that price. They are no more alike than chalk is like cheese. Almost every lady who sees these vests will buy from them.
 Fifty-three Ladies White. Jersey Union Suits that we formerly sold for 9sc will be closed out for 49c each. They go on sale Tuesday morning at this price and will go with a rush.
