A Society Sewing Circle.

A Philadelphia organization that
doesn't make much noise in the world
is composed of seven young society
bellies who have organized a sewing cir
Gle that is conducted in a peculiar way.
These girls, animated by a commend
able desire to lend a helping hand to the
deserving poor, formed a sewing circle
and got right down to business, and be-
fore many weeks they had worked SO
industriously while they gossiped that
they succeeded in completely clothing
one poor boy. They were not satisfied
with their efforts, however, and resolved
upon radical reform in their method
of procedure. 1t was thought expedient
to do their philanthropic sewing by
proxy, and so it was agreed to engage
an experienced seamstress to do the
heavy work on clothing for little boys
and girls of the slums. Now when the
circle meets the seamstress goes to the
place of meeting and works away in
dustrious1y, while the seven bellies ex-
change gossip and do fancy sewing and
knitting New York Evening Sun.

And There Will Be No Further Trouble
Between France and San Domingo.
New YORK, March Especial CORE
spondence of the World dated Puerto
Plata, San Domingo, Feb. &c. says:
The difficulty between San Domingo
and France has been adjusted, according
to advices received today by steamer
from the capital.
President Heureaux agrees, the report
states, that the republic shall pay to
France 10000 francs cash to come from
the disputed funds on deposit in Paris
for some time, and to reckon
her socaIled international debt at
100000 francs, at least $4,000
francs to be paid monthly
in cash That debt was
stated at $213,295 January 1, 1891, the
precise amount of it has been in dispute
since that time, on account of sundry
French claims
This arrangement is understood to be a
settlement in full of all French claims.
The French men of-war have left.

Russia to Lose Time.

The continental nations of Europe are
decidedly getting BADLY left'' in con-
nection with the changing Of meridian,
hour and calendar. Thus few years
ago, when Italy, Spain, Austria and
other southeastern states of Europe
adopted the meridian and the mean
time of Greenwich as their standard
hour, it meant loss clean and clear of
from to IL hours to each of the
countries in question. And now we are
informed that Nicholas II is about to
introduce the Gregorian system into the
Russian empire. His subjects will have
in that case an infinitely greater griev-
ance than those of King Hunbert and
of Emperor Francis Joseph, for instead
of merely losing few hours. they will
be locked no less than 13 days, that
being the extent to which Russia is be-
hind the time of western civilization. -
