Diamonds Are Only Charcoal.

The precious diamond is only crystal
of pure carbon, and as such Is infusible
and safe from injury by acids or al
kalis. The fire" in diamond is
brought out in the cutting. Rough dia-
monds are cheap: 1t Is the cutting that
costs and on which the brilliancy SO
largely depends. Diamonds come from
India, Brazil and South Africa, In all
colors-white, yellow, orange, red, pink,
brown, green, blue, black and opalescent.
The light yellow and brown hues are
comparatively common; the decided COL
ors are extremely rare; only one deep
red diamond has ever been found. The
coiors most in demand are perfect white,
blush white and deep golden yellow.

LnycIy Dnncing Girl. of Japnn.

The dancing girls at the Fifth Ave-
nue. Theatre, where the "Mikado" is be-
ing sung by the Duff Opera Company,
are nothing like as pretty as the slim,
dainty, elegant, graceful, understanding
girls one sees in a tour OF Japan. At
the tea houses, theatres and bazaars
in the large cities md suburbs the
guechas, who sing and dance, are about
fifteen years of age, with marvellously
black chignons, stuck with shell pins,
skin like amber, eyebrows shaped into
crescents, brilliant red lips and a care
fully drawn little circle of rouge in the
middle of each cheek. They are painted
an impossible pink and white, with a
line of little kiss-curls at the nape Of
the neck; their tiny hands are eloquent
of beauty and their absurd dignity, the
witchery OF their comical affectations,
their melancholy voices, irritating
laugh, and the latent mischief in their
ridiculous Sits OF eyes are in keeping
with the tiny make-believe world in
which they live

ADMIRAL CUSTODlO JObE DE mELLO.
A despatch from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil,
says Floriano Peixoto Is triumphant. The
insurcent vessels have surrendered without
having answered with single shot the can
nonade from the Governments hilltop bat
teries. The report that Admiral De Cana
had fed was confirmed. He has sought
safety on the French cruiser Magon.
The American officers OF the Government
warships came ashore during the afternoon.
They report that the crews OF the vessels are
we'll. and delighted that they won without
fight. Excepting the officers NOBODY ao1aro
Peixoto's men-of-war seems to have been
eager for battle.
In coming up the harbor the Government
feet saluted the United States flag and Rear
Admiral Benham. The United States heet
will disperse soon. The men aboard the
American war ships are in excellent health.
The end otinsurgent power In the har6or
has been welcomed with Joy IN the city. EA-
Change has improved twenty-five per cent.
Business Is as usual. Not symptom OF aus
order has appeared in the city. The people
are preparing to celebrate tne colapse VI 'ne
insurrection.
The Aouidaban and Republica, which con-
stitute about all that is left OF the insurgent
cause. are reported to be in south Brazilian
waters. Both are said to be disabled. Ad-
miral Mello, It Is reported, has just been seen
IN the streets OF Montevideo. He has de-
serted his followers, as Admiral da CANA de-
serted his officers and men on the harbor
feet. The insurgent sailors will be par
doned the officers will be court martlaiea.
The surrender of the rebels after the at

complete and unconditional.
M ronoo hpa fpEan refuge on @ french

oaned on other vessels In the harbor. The
reroIution is now confined to the Southern
States.
The sudden surrender Of Da CANA and his
fact TO the Brazilian Government without
naval fight. which seemed imminent q lew
days before, is the source of great gratifca-
tlon TO the officials of the Navy Department,
who now expect the dissolution OF our large
feet in Rio. The expense to our Navy De-
partment during the revolution has been
larger than is generally imagined.
The cablegrams alone have cost thousands
Of dollars. while coal, supplies, and stores
have been enormously high. Every omcer
on the feet is believed to have spent large
part OF his salary for mess bills alone on ac-
count OF the exorbitant prices charged for
everything at Rio since the n out
partment has felt the greatest con-
Germ for the health OF the officers and crews,
and but for the exercise of unusual care 1t is
believed yellow fever would have appeared
On ali the ships. Some naval officers regret
that the war was terminated without naval
fight, where the dynamite gun would nave
undoubtedly played an important part, ana
where our Officers would have had q chance
TO witness their first modern sea battle.

Whaling.

Regular whale-boats are twenty
eight to twenty-nine feet long, with
cut in the bow through which the line
passes, and in the stern post over
which the line may be checked if it lie
running out too fast. The officer sits
in the stern, from where the line,
which is coiled in tub is managed.
The oars are called 'lesding," "tub, .:
'smidships," 'bow," and "harpooner"
('harpooneer" they pronounce it).
When boat stgoes on, the harpooner
draws in his oar and prepares to
ststrike." He doesn't always succeed.
When the whale is struck the har-
pooner shifts with the officer. This
explains why he is often called the
boat-steerer. The critical moment has
arrived. The whale once, fast, the
future is narrowed down to "dead
whale or stove boat" Therefore the
killing of the whale is in the hands OF
the officer. He must judge nicely,
though on the spur of the moment,
when to lay on or of, and meet all
the emergencies caused by the unfore-
seen actions of the wounded leviathan.
Sometimes the whale will rush
through the water, drawing the boat
after him at a lightning speed and
almost tearing the loggerhead out OF
the stern. the while the line is taut as
a fddle-string. Or he may "sound,"
or dive, and fathom after fathom OF
line be rapidly paid out. Woe to him
who gets foul of the smoking line! 1t
often means loss of leg or arm, or even
instant death; for the diving weight
of tons at the other end tells before,
knives can be whipped out and the
line cut. And where will the whale
come up? Perhaps right under the
boat, staving it, or raising it up with
him and spilling all hands into the sea,
where they will sink like SO many
stones unless they know how to swim
or unless another boat is at hand to
pick them up. He may appear little
TO one side, and in his convulsions
shiver the boat with one lash of his
tail, or splinter it between his jaws 1

summer. stove boat from one of the
Provincetown whalers. The captain
had been thrown out over the bow;
the others jumped. Fortunately there
was another boat near by to save them
and kill the whale. ~,
In the old days the whale was killed

It required eye and nerve for the fatal
thrust at the rolling, plunging monster.
Now, however, they use the bomb

A Simple Fire Escape.

A simple, easily procured, inexpen-
sive and entirely practical means OF
escape from upper stories may be
found in q stout duck sack and strong
MANILA rope. The sack should be deep
and wide enough to hold several per-
sons, and have rope well bound
around the top, to which the rope bali
is attached. If no appliance be pro-
yided to hold stout rail across the
window on the inside then several
wraps must be taken around some ar
ticle of furniture. wife and children
dumped into the sack. the husband
paving out the rope and letting them
down. The sack is then drawn up.
when the remaining occupant goes in
to the sack with the slack end of the
rope, and, paying it out, lets himself
down. Rope and sack will pass un-
hurt past considerable sheets OF tiame
from windows below, and if OCCASION
ally treated to a strong solution OF
alum water, or even strong brine, are
of difficult ignition. The deep sack
dispels the feeling of fear in not be-
holding the dizzy height, and also
protects from fame in passing win
dows. Every window should have
strong staples into which rail- can be
inserted. and which should be ever
ready if needed. A cool head could
thus let down, in many cases, numer-,,
ous loads, and for that matter there
NAV be rope enough to allow all the
paving out and pulling up to be done4
bv some one on the ground. Privatej
instructions should be in every room,
and each occupant should be made
familiar with the working. -PittsburgI

AGAINST THE LORDS.
A Motion to Abolish Their Power Of
Veto Carried.

In the British House OF Commons MIR
Henry Labouchere's amendment 10 the
Queens address to abolish the veto power of
the House OF Lords was passed bya vote of
147 to AS, in spite OF the opposition OF the
Government.
Mr.. Labouchere'5 proposal was an amend
ment to the address in reply to the Queens
speech. After some discussion and constd-
erable excitement the amendment was put
to vote and was passed.
When the figures were announced they
caused an outburst OF prolonged cheering
which was renewed when the Deputy Speak
er read the address in reply to the Queens
spsech with Mr.. Labouchere's amendment
attached to it.
The division on the Labouchere amend.
ment occurred earlier than was expected
and many Of the canvassers were absent
at dinner. The majority was composed OF
seventy-three McCarthyites and Parnellites,
the remainder being Radicals.
When the division paper was handed to
Mr.. Labouchere a tremendous cheer broke
from the Irish and Radical benches and tho
members standing below the gangway. MIR.
Tanner was excitedly cheering and waving
his handkerchief, while the Government
teller5 looked pale, especially chief whip
Ellis. All the Ministers looked downcast,
while Mr. Baliour smiled ironically.
The division was moved purposely during
the dining hour. when one-half of the men,
bers were absent. Mr.. Labouchere was coz
graduated on his victory, und was chaffingly
asked when he would undertake the for
nation of Ministry. The majority ol
the Ministerialists do not disapprove
Mr.. Labouchere's victory, but they are
perpleXed over the Governments defeat Ir
looking up precedents it has been found that
the only way OF getting rid of an amendmen
| like Mr. Labouchere's Is by having the HOUSE
vote on the address as a whole.
! All the Irish members supported Mr.. La
bouchere.

Will Establish a Reindeer Farm.

A Madison wis., man has just been
selected to go upon o very peculiar
and interesting, even romantic mis-
sion. William Kjellman is his name
and he is a young Norwegian of thirty
four years--a man who for three years
past has been working in this city as
a carpenter. He has wife and
three-year-old daughter, and all of
them will soon be located at the utter
most western point of the American
continent, surrounded only by native
Eskimos and few Laplanders. KieH.
man has been deputed by the United
States Government to 60 to Lapland,
get five or six Laplander families, and
their dogs, then proceed with them to
Port Clarence, jutting out into the
narrowest point of Bering Strait, there
to remain presumably for the remain
der of their days. :
The object in transporting Laplan-
ders to Alaska is to obtain the benefit
of their knowledge in breeding, devel-
oping and using reindeer. The whole
scheme is Government venture pos
sessing the greatest likelihood Of hav-
ing in it elements of the highest prac-
tical utility. At Port Clarence a little
coast fishing is done, but in the inter-
ior no industry has yet been estab.
ished of any value Whatever. 10 all
intents and purposes the land back
from salt water lies idle and nonpro.
ductive, and yet it abounds in the
choicest of food for reindeer--moss
and other lichens. Not until within
three years has any effort been made
to domesticate reindeer, but three
years ago Dr.. Sheldon jackson, who,
under the Federal Bureau Of Educa-
ton, has direct charge of the educa'
tional and civilizing affairs OF the Gov
ernment in Alaska, obtained an I'M
portation of the animals from across
the Strait of Siberia, and now there
are about 400 of them in the peninsu-
la. He also brought over some native
Siberians to instruct the Eskimos IN
their care, and the experiment proved
fairly successful. The native Alaskans
took to the innovation kindly, but Dr.
Jackson realized that by no means
the fullest measure of success was be-
ing achieved, owing to the general
ineficiency of the imported siberians
in treating the reindeer. He therefore
concluded to go to the real home OF
the 1eindeer--Lapland--and secure
some of those people to whom rein
deer is horse, cow, sheep and goat ali
combined. Chicago Herald
