The yanderbilts, Who Are Not Sportsmen,
Buying Up the Adirondacks.
1t will soon be impossible for a fellow
to 60 into the Adirondacks without a
permit from the Vanderbilts. That en-
terprising family seems bent on buying
up the entire region, TO what end no one
seems to know. There is not sports
man in the entire Vanderbilt family
mean the kind of sportsman that likes to
work for his game.
Cornelius, the eldest son, never pulled
a trigger in his life or got on top of a
horse. Willie K. can cast a fly out of
his parlor window and might be able to
kill pheasant if it sat very still. Fred
is good fisherman, but doesn't shoot or
ride, and George is dilettante in books.
Of course there is great profit in Adj
rondack lands. They can be let out to
parties" who do love to fish and shoot,
but there is also profit in suburban pro
perty where the only game is goat OF
yaller dog. Why should the Vanderbilts
go in for sporting property when they dc
not sport?-Cholly Knickerbocker in New
York Recorder.

Fire in Johnston.

Adams Block on Plain6eld street, John
ston, was the scene of a confagation
early Wednesday morning. The build
ing has two stores on the ground floor
and two tenements above. One store
was occupied by J. II. LinIell, tinsmith
the other is vacant, one tenement is also
empty. The fire is said to have started
in the tinshop, and but for the efforts of
the Fire Department the building wonld
hove been burned to the ground; the
company did excellent work. The build
ing belonged 10 Herbert Dodge of Provi-
dence and was fully insured. Linnell's
stock aud fxtu1 es were also insured.

The UNEMPLOYED.

Bradstreets reports that 119 cities Of
the country show S0l, 900 unemployed
persons in the United States at this time
upon whom 1856, 900 persons depend for
bread.
This makes total of 2, 2,757 900 persons
without visible means of support in
these 119 cities alone. Leaving all other
cities and towns out of the question, we
have close to one-twentieth of the entire
population of the United States out of
the means to procure the necessaries of
life unless they have some earnings laid
by for such a direful emergency.

fed summary of Bradstreet's reports:

The Fourfold Classification That Was Made
Two ThOuSand Years Ago.

The Fourfold Classification That Was Made
Two Thousand Years Ago.
1t is interesting to find that SO thor
pughIy scientific man as Professor
William Preyer has adopted the four
fold classification of temperaments
made nearly 1900 years ago-namely,
the choleric, sanguine, melancholy and
lymphatic. The existence Of one or
the other of these temperaments may
be discerned, he says IN his work on
THE Infant Mind" very early in the
great majority of children-in the sec
ond quarter of the first year, beyond
a doubt. Nearly every one who has
written about temperaments has got up
classification of his own. Galen had
nine, Haycock gave six, Graham
Brown seven, and others have got down
as low as two. Modern writers use the
word nervous for choleric, and bilious
for melancholic temperament. With
these verbal notifications, the old clas-
sification seems to answer all practical
purposes, and individuals can build up
combinations as needed.
Hutchinson defines temperament as
the sum of the physical peculiarities of
man exclusive of his tendency to
disease. This is not very satisfac-
tory, though perhaps temperament is
thing little too vague TO be satisfacto-
rily defined. In modern terms it may
be said to be the peculiar way in which
the individual reacts to the stimuli Of
his environment There is no doubt
that one class of persons reacts quickly
and easily, expending energy profusely
and often needlessly in their life work;
others react hopefully and work buoy
antly, yet with less waste. We can
thus distinguish the nervous, the san
guine, the melancholic, etc. A capac-
ity to recognize and appreciate the i'm
portance Of temperament used TO be con-
sidered part of a sound medical train
ing. 1t has been too much neglected In
our pursuit of minuti@ with micro
scopes and test tubes. Our teachers OF
practical medicine might well revive
its study Medical Record.

ana TWO cow norns sp1I IN naIves
were passed around the group, the men,
bers of which squatted upon their
launches and freely helped themselves
from the kettle Even In this most un-
civilized form of satisfying hunger
there is peculiar etiquette which the
most lowly person invariably observes.
Each member of the company in turn
dips his spoon, or horn, into the center
of the stew and draws it in direct
line toward him, never allowing it to de-
viate to the right or left. By observing
this rule each person eats without in
terfering with his neighbor. Being
ignorant Of this custom, dipped my
horn into the mess at random and fshed
about for some Of the nice bits. My
companions regarded this horrid breach
of politeness with scowls of impatience.
They declared with some warmth to
the cook the foreigners did not know
how to eat. apologi zed as we'll as
could and endeavored thereafter to eat
according to gaucho etiquette. New

The Earth,s Temperature.

One Of the most learned of modern
biologists, Sir William Thomson, has
expressed the opinion that for the last
$4,000, 600 years the rate of increase Of
the earth's temperature under ground
has gradually diminished from about
one-tenth to about one-fiftieth of a de-
gree F. per foot. ,Thepresent argument,
however, as to the date of the consolida-
ton of the earth, based on the assump-
ton that the earth is simply cooling
globe, is met with serious objections,
one of themost forcible being that as
the soliditication Of the sasth probably
began from the mitldle and spread to
the surface it is not only possible but
likely that after firm crust had been
formed the upper portion still retained
some degree Of viscosity. If, then, the
interior be viscous, some tidal oscilla-
tions must take place in it, and these
being subject to friction heat must be
generated in the viscous portion, and
the diurnal rotation of the earth must
be retarded. According to the suppose
ton of an eminent scientist-viz, that
it is only those strata which are
within some hundreds of miles of the
surface which are viscous, while the
central portion is rigid-then, whom
tidal friction does its work, the same
amount of heat is generated as on the
hypothesis Of the viscosity Of the entire
planet, but instead of being distributed
throughout the whole mass, and princi-
pally toward the middle it is now to be
found. in the more superficial layers.

Women Domestics.

Statistics show that of the 1886, 2SS
women engaged in paid occupations in
1870 nearly one-haH were domestic serv-
ants. By the census Of 1880, when the
number of working women in the United
States had increased to 2, CAT, 1877, only
one-third were found in domestic serv-
ice. 1t is not yet known what proportion
of the present number of working wom-
en- are employed as household servants,
as the figures of the last census ara not
yet to be had. The reasons for this de-
crease in the number of household serv-
ants is supposed to be due to the shorter
working hours, the companionship, the
Sunday holiday and the greater freedom
outside of working hours that are to be
had in other employments.
The greater remuneration given to
the average girl in factory or retail
store cannot be an element in her pref
erence, as statistics show the average
wages per week for this class of labor
to be So 6s, with an average outlay of
So. 30. Though the income of the house
hold servant is smaller, her outlay is
also very small. Her station in life will
probably leave her with more money at
the end of the year than can be accumu-
lated by the average schoolteacher.

New York Women.

The New York correspondent of the
Boston Transcript mentions the suffrage
campaign in that state and says, speak
ing of the petition to be presented to
the constitutional convention: 1.-THE sig
nificance of the petition lies, however,
chiefly in the support that it is finding
in some measure among women who are
not habitually advanced who are in
no wise excited over woman and whose
Indifference to an extension of suffrage
has been the familiar argument of it's
opponents. Meetings in behalf of the
petition have been quietly held of late
IN houses in the prosperous avenues up
town, to the surprise of some of the men
who have learned Of them. Women have
attended them who help to make what
ever of cultivated society New York con-
tains. Some Of the offending males who
scoff at the agitators respect these wom-
en-, and their interest and support Of the
present petition has done more as it
seems to me, for the cause than hun
dred meetings. In this sympathy adj
vance toward a wider suffrage in New
York seems most evident.

pleasant to report great gain in the
general ship-ehape trimness of effect in
the dressing OF the average woman this

with American dash and individuality,
