Quality, Not Quantity,

Chauncey Depew, in his address on
the occasion of the commencement ex-
ercises of the University of Virginia,
last week, with reference to the disturb
ing anarchic element said:
1T is with imported errors and prac-
tices which are foreign to our freedo m,
alien to our institutions, that we find it
most difficult to deal.Social1sm apdAnar

and are not found among those born

The institutions under which we live.
and which are stronger after the strain
of a century, develop and educate cit
izenship which requires neither armed
regiments nor police forces to suppress
it's riots, or its organized assaults upon
life and properly, upon law and order.
Bloody lessons and costly experience
have taught the necessity for more Sup
ervision of immigration, and more care
full scrutiny of those who would assume
the responsibilities and enjoy the price
less blessings of our equal rights. AS
the competitive conditions of the country
demand higher standard, the quality
of immigrants deteriorates and the dig
nifty and safety of the laborer, the peace
of the community aud the moral and
physical health of the people are alike
endangered. Let us establish guarantees
against disease and crime at the places
of embarkation abroad and ports Of entry
at home, and then with generous hospi-
tality we will welcome all who will con-
tribute by their characters, their industry
and their locality to support of our laws
and the perpetuity of American inststu-

KEYS M TIE EAST.
Their Great Bulk Corresponds to In-
 tricacy of the Locks.

Their Great Bulk Corresponds to In- tricacy of the Locks.
 Tn the 'sHistory If Nineveh, and Its Places by Joseph Bonomi. we find a description of. perhaps, the oldest lock ever discovered, says Hardware. It was used in securing the gate of the apartment in one of the palaces of Khorsabnad In describing this ancient piece of hardware-if such terms may be applied to wooden locks he says: At the end of the chamber, just behind the first bulls, was former ly strong wooden gate, of one leaf, which was fastened by large wooden lock, like those still used in the east, of which the key is as much as 2. man can conveniently carry, and by a bar which moved into a square hole in the wall. It is to key of this description that the prophet probably alludes. And the key of the house of David will lay upon his shoulder and it is remarkable that the word for key in this passage of Scripture, 'muftae.' is the same in use all over the cast at the present time. The key of an ordinary street door Is commonly thirteen or fourteen inches long; :Hd the key of the gate of public building or of a street, CT a quarter of Q town, is two feet or more in length. The iron pegs at one end of the piece of wood core spond to so many holes in the wooden bar or bolt of the lock, which, when the door or gate is shut, cannot be opened until the key has been in serted, and the inpediment to the drawing back of the bolt removed by raising up So many iron pins that fall down into holes in the bar CT bolt cor responding to the peg in the key"
 This description, and others of a cor robatory character, prove that this form of lock and key was in use in Egypt four or five thousand years, during which extended period of time it does not appear to have undergone any successful changes.

IMPROVING THE EYES.
Country life Said to I,e tue Fest Antidote
 for Poornass of Nfsion.


 It is satisfactory to be told by Mir. Ellis that blindness in England is slowly decreasing," though Great Britain still stands in this respect be- hind two other European countries and three more come before Ireland. Shortsightedness, however, appears to be increasing everywhere, Germany having signal and sinister preemi- hence in this respect.
 A French doctor has noted the re- marlzable fact that wild beasts caught quite young or born in captivity be- come shortsighted. the conclusion be- ing that the eye adapts itself to it's habitual sphere of vision, and unless ''educated' to use ETr. Ellis term, to see objects at distance, loses the capacity of SO doinr. Even in after life the eye may be, to some extent, so educated, though probably only when the myopia is not considered.
 It is thus within the experience of the present writer, says the London Spectator, that his sight greatly i'm proved in days gone by, when he be- came volunteer, by practice at the butts, so that while at first he could not see the target to shoot at without spectacles at Q three hundred-yard range, after twelve month or so he only needed to put on spectacles at four hundred yards. But beyond that range he was never able to dispense with them.
 Country excursions are, therefore. extremely valuable as means of strengthening the sight of town-bred children, and the conductors of such excursions should take pains to direct the eyes of the children to distant cb- jects-to the furthcst hill, church tower, or other land marlz-noting. if possible, any ineapacity to discern the selected object, and then selecting some nearer one for the weaker sighted

WONDERFUL FEAEs oEmEmoRY.
Some Minds Have a Facility for Retain
 ing Certain Glasses cT Facts.


 Among these who have performed great feats Of memory CassclIs Family Magazine mentions Dr. Fuller, author of the ''Worthies Of England" He could repeat another mans sermon after hearing it once, and could repeat five hundred words in an unknown language after hearing them twice. He one day undertook to walk from Temple Par to the farthest end of Chcapside and to repeat on his return every sign on. either side of tho way in the order of their occurrence, and he did it easily Ip such feats as this the eye plays Q chief part; yet blind people also have good memories. Rev. B. J. Johns, chaplain of the blind asy- lum, London. testified that large number Of pupils learn the Psalter and that one young man was there who could repeat not only the whole of the one hundred and fifty Of the prayer book Psalms and a large number of metrical psalms and hymns, as well as a considerable amount of modern poetry, including Goldsnitl's De serted Village" but the whole of Mil tons Paradise Lost with marginal notes and a biography. Lord 8iacau- lay on one occasion repeated to him. self the whole of Paradise Lost" while crossing the Irish channel. At another time, waiting in 2 Cambridge cofee-house for a pest chaise, he he picked I'D a country newspaper containing two political pieces-one the "P 1ections Of an Exile" and the other 9 Parody on 8 Welsh Ballad''-- looked them once through, never gave them further thought for forty years, and then repeated them without the change Of single word. Macaulay's mind, some one has said, was like a dredging net, which took in all that it encountered, both good and bad, nor ever seemed to feel the burden. Very much unlike @ dredging net. and more like strainer, are tic minds of some other persons who carefully select what they will retain or have 9 natu- ral facility for remembering special classes of facts-George Bidder for fig ures, Sir ". Scott for verses, Mezzo- fanti for languages.

KING COTTON AT HOME.
Brilliant Appearance of Q Field of Cotton
 fn June.

BrniIaEC Appearance or q AIeid or Cotton
 in June.
 A field of cotton in June is like a great, brilliant flower bed. According to the Blue and Gray, it's bloom resem- bles the hollyhock, and has the re- marllable peculiarity of changing it's color from hour to hour. When it first opens it is pale straw color; in few hours it is pure white; later it is faintly pink, and next morning rose color. The flower is succeeded by Q triangular pod, containing in three cells the seeds in three locks of white down which burst forth when the pod opens. The length and the fneness of this fiber, CT staple" as it is called, determines the grade of the cotton. The "sea island" or long stapled cot ton is grown on the upland. The best cotton in the world is grown on Edisto island, south of Charleston; the staple of this is nearly two inches long.
 Seen under microscope, the cotton fbers are ribbon shaped, and not straight like flax, but twisted some thing like 2 corlzscrew. The best sea island cotton is in beautiful spiral springs that lend themselves readily to spinning. This cotton is used only in the manufacture of the most delicate fabrics; in England, 9 single pound of it has been wrought into one thousand and twenty-siz miles of thread.
 It was at first thought that compress sion would injure the staple of the cotton; that the fiber would be broken off short, or the spiral screw, so neces- sary to Good spinning, bc crushed fat. But it was demonstrated by expert ment that, SO far from injuring the staple, it seemed to preserve it. and since then the great desire of the cot ton shippers has been to get a machine to compress the cotton as much as pos

UNDER THE SPOUT.
A Strange Indian Method of Putting Lit

 tie Cncs to Sleep.
 Sir George Campbell records in his Indian Memoirs a very strange habit of native mothers in the neighborhood of Simla. He seems inclined to recom- mend its adoption in England, but per haps he is speaking in jest.
 wonder not to have seen more mo- tice of the curious practice of the hill women of putting their babies heads under . spout of wa ter to send them to sleep and keep them quiet. When the new cartroad was first made, there was Q village ct halting-place where rows of such children might be seen in a grove close to the road.
 The water of a hill spring was so ad- justed as to furnish a series of little spouts. each about the thickness of ones little finger. Opposite each spout was kind of earth pillow, and a little trough to carry away the water. Each child was So laid that one Of the water-spouts played on the top of its head. and the water then ran of into the trough.
 l can testify that the process was most successful. There never were such quiet and untroublesonc babies as those under the spouts. The people were unanimous in Asserting that the water did the children no harm, but on the contrary, benefited and invig- orated them. In fact, they seemed to think that child not subjected to this process must grow up soft-brained and good-for-nothing.
 Certainly their appearance showed no signs that this singular method of bracing the intellectual part of their bodies had done them any harm.

Huge Japanese umbrellas are serV- iceable for many things, but one seen recently is so peculiarly striking as to deserve especial comment. It hangs from a hook in the ceiling Of small room in an artists home and forms the entire ceiling. Beneath it is the tea table and all it's paraphernalia, together with bamboo settee and five chairs, all set upon a Japanese rug. The tea service is of fine Japanese ware and the tea itself cc2es from Japan; the entire rcom is complete. and one feels on en1erine t5lat ia is veritable pit e. tac lan1 Of clEys21tAenuus.

TREE6 THAT GIVE MILK.
South American Natives Do Their Milking
 Without Using Their Hands.

South American Natives Do Their SIilLing
 Without Using Their Hands.
 Dr. Spruce, the renowned South American traveller, mentions a tree, Q member Of the dog bane family, the juice of which is used as milk, says Chambers Journal On the bark be. ing wounded the milk flows abundant ly, and is of the consistency of cow's milk, of the pnrest white, and sweet to the taste. The Indian mode of talk ing it i5 to apply the month directly to the wound, and thus receive the milk as 1t flows. Dr. Spruce says he has often partal1en of it without experienc- ing any il effects.
 In Guiana, the natives employ the milk from tree belonging to the same family a5 the l2st named: in the yer nacular it is known as hyahya, and to botanists as TaberDacnontana utilis (so named after Jacobus Theodorus Tabernaemontanus, a German physi- elan and botanist). The milk hes the same flavor as sweet cows milk, but is rather sticky on account of it's contain ing some caoutchOEc.
 In Para, c lofty tree, belonging to the star apple family, attaining 8 height of ole hundred feet, is used in a similar manner to tho others men toned. Incisions are made in the bark and the milky juice flows out copious- ly, about the consistency Of thick cream, and if t were not for it's taste, which is somewhat peculiar, could be hardly distinguished from it.

A oNE-GUN REPUBLIC.

When It Was Secured They Could Not
 safely Firo II.
 The rulers of the miniature republic of Andorra decided recently that the country should possess a cannon. Krupp, therefore, was ordered to man. ufacture one of the most modern type. The great gun arrived at it's mountain destination short tine ago. and was placed on the highest point in the country" so that tho citizens could See that the valley was well protected. 1 day was appointed to try the can ron, which was able to send q ball eighteen kilometers. Just as the two artillcrymen of ArdcrrG were ready to fire it occurred to.oae of the prudent citizens that the silct Inigllt cause some trouble. The territory of the republic Andorra does not extend over more than six lcilcmeters. To direct the shot, therefore, toward the surround ing mountains would be the same as firing on France CT Italy, as the ball would necessarily fall on the tcrritoryof one Of these countries. A war might be the result. It was then decidcd to oshcot the ball in tllc air, but some one sug- gested that 1t would endanger the lives of too many people in it's descent, and possibly bore a great hole in the re- public of Andorra. Good council pre- vailed and the two artillery men were commanded to unload the gun. The shot has not yet been fired, and the good republicans are uncertain what to do with the expensive gun.

Pressure Sustained by Divers.

A veteran submarine diver, in relat- ing some anecdotes concerning the bottom of the sea and it's inhabitants, gives some interesting figures as to the amount of pressure the body of the diver is subjected to. At a depth of only one hundred feet the pressure is forty-four pounds to each square inch of the divers surface. The ordinary human frame has about twelve square feet of surface, which would make the pressure at the depth mentioned above not less than thirty-eight tons. This enormous weight is not all pressing downward, but inwards from all direc- fiOnSs
