Munich Street Lamps.

The method adopted in Munich for
lighting street lamps from the outside
without opening the lamp has proved
quite satisfactory, the results, as emu
merated, being to economize in flashlight
gas, to enable the lamps to be lit in q
storm, to shut off the main stopcock, to
light Welsbach lamps without explosion,
and to prevent the casting Of shadows.
As described, the main pipe commune
Gates with a kindling pipe, which at one
end to the outside Of the lantern
and Mt the other goes to the burner-this
kindling pipe being bored with fine
holes, which make "a row Of flying
flames leading from the outside to the
burner; the main pipe and its connec.
tions, with the stopcock, are divided SO
as to enable gas to be supplied to the
kindling pipe and burner, and then to
the burner alone. The lighting is done
with the ordinary rod lamp, provided
with an aperture ut its end which re.
ceives the lower end Of the kindling
tube. When the lamplighter's pole is
slipped into position. wind has no effect
on the kindling operation. New York

New York's River Tunnel.

There is u big hole under North river.
Some day it will DO u tunnel connect

has been done for four years, but the
owners of the hole are now trying to
raise money in London to complete their
tunnel before a bridge can be built owe
North river. Only 1880 feet remain to
connect tho two holes bored from either
shore, each of which is now full Of wa
ter. This water has simply soaked
through since work was abandoned on
the death of the principal hacker. So
far 50, 600, 900 has been poured into the
hole, and only $500, 900 will be required
to complete it.-New York Letter.

bUENOS AYRES.
Argentine's Capital Il the Queen Of the

A~rgentine's Capital Il the Queen Of tho
Southern Hemisphere.
The omniscient Whitaker, under the
heading British Possessions In Aus
tralasia," states that Melbourne, with
its suburbs, contained Oh Dec. 81, 1894,
an estimated population Of Al, S32 in
habitants, "being the most pOpulous
city in the southern hemisphere We
have always understood Rio do Janeiro
and Buenos Ayres to DO also in the
southern hemisphere, and, oddly enough,
Whitaker himself gives larger figures
for both Of these cities than for Mel
bourne. The remark is probably one
that has been at some time true and has
been carried on from year to year.
In any case, tho results Of tho census
establish incontestably the claim Of
Buenos Ayres to be the greatest city Of
South America and Of the southern
hemisphere. With allowance for imper-
fections in the execution Of the census,
inseparable from the way in which it
was carried out, the figure 655, 6SS may
be taken as practically correct, and no
other city in this half Of the world can
lay claim to possessing within 100000
Of this number Of inhabitants.
The population Of BuenOs Ayres 10
thus larger than that Of any city Of the
United Kingdom, except London and
Glasgow. It is considerably larger than
that Of Liverpool o. Birmingham, and
it is only about 30, 900 less than the
combined populations Of Manchester and
Stafford. OF the great cities Of Europe
only Paris, Berlin, Vienna. st. Peters
burg, Constantinople and Moscow sur
pass Buenos Ayres, and in North Amer
lea only New York, Brooklyn, Chicago
and Philadelphia. Our city is the second
city of the Latin world, surprising Mad
rid, Naples and Rome in Europe and
Rio Janeiro, Santiago, Lima and Mex
leo in the new world. The rate Of
growth Is no less remarkable than the
actual size, for in the last eight years
Buenos Ayres has increased about 80
per cent. -Buenos Ayres Review.

He DID NOT LIKE PERFUMES.

But the Reminiscent Odor OF Cigar Was
Another Matter.
1t was at a lecture; the room was hot
and crowded, and Mrs. Bittersweet
noticed that her husband was suffering
under a sense of injury, says the Chi
cago Tribune.
''What is it, dear?" she whispered,
under cover Of one of the speakers
rounded periods.
Mr.. Bittersweet's shifts became more
audible. Its the abominable odor of
perfumery in the ROOM" he puffed.
I'm almost asphyxiated by it. Why,
I can count fourteen distinct scents

plaud."

pered his wife, with that cheerfulness
always displayed by the friends of the
sufferer in such cases. ''Do listen to the
lecture; it is just splendid"
''Humph; L suppose you like the
odor; women always do like whatever
costs money. Do you happen to know
what is spent annually on perfumery in
America alone?"
mo, dear, don't. What is it?"
''Um-well, [ don't remember the
exact figures just now, but assure you
it is something enormous. For my part
l think that the carrying of perfumes
into public places should be prohibited
by law, and the amount of money
which would otherwise have been
wasted upon them might then go to-
wards endowing an asylum for those
idiots who don't know that others have
rights in public"
''Sh-sh! You are disturbing people

He came back before long with smil-
ing face and settled himself contented-
ly in his place. AS he did so the lady
in the violet bonnet, who sat next to
him, began to wave her handkerchief
before her face.
Isn't it awful" she whispered to her
companion, wherever one goes it is
just the same-some horrid man poi
sons the air with the odor of stale to-
bacco; positively l couldn't endure it

ABSOLUTE 7 PURE

in mystery. We only know that their
receipt is handed down from year to
year by old students to new, and that
they belong peculiarly to Vassar.
ITO make them, take two cups of
sugar, one cup of milk, piece of but
ter one-half the size of an egg, and a
tcaspoonful of vanilla extract. The
mixture is cooked until it begins to get
grimy. Then it is taken from the fire,
stirred brisklv, and turned into but
tered tins. Before it hardens it is cut
into squares. You may eat the fudge
either cold or hot; it is good either
way. 1t never tastes SO delicious, how
ever, as when made at college, over a
spluttering gas lamp, in the seclusion
OF your own apartments. The various
difficulties that this method entails but
make the fudge taste sweeter."

He Dreaded a Repetition

A minister in Glasgow was annoyed
by people talking and giggling He
paused, looked at the disturbers, and
said: Some years since, as l was
preaching, young man who sat before
me was constantly laughing, talking
and making uncouth grilnaces. 1
paused and administered a severe re-
buke. After the close of the service a
gentleman said to me: Sir, you made
a great mistake; that young man was
an IDIOT Since then 1 have always
been afraid to reprove those who mis-
behave themselves in church, lest
should repeat that mistake and reprove
another idiot"

Critical Logic Failed.

The late Sherlock Holmes had a
favorite dictum: eliminate the i'm
possible, and what is left, however i'm
probable, must be the truth" This
was not at all in accordance with the
saying of Victor Hugo: Nothing is SO
imminent as the impossible. What
must be always foreseen is the unfore-
seen" Most of us will agree, from ex-
perience, with Hugo rather than with
Holmes. The impossible does not hap
pen. When mercy Philbrick's Choice"
was published in the ''No Name" series,
the critics were agreed that it seemed
to be written by Helen Hunt Jackson.
But, as those who knew her love for
flowers and acquaintance with nature
also pointed out, she could not be the
author, for there were several glazing
mistakes in the naming and placing of
blossoms in the story. Yet, as was
afterward disclosed. she did write it; so
all the theorizing went for nothing.

The Prince Took Of His Hat.

According to the Philadelphia Rec
ord, the captain of the clipper Louisi-
ana, which lately arrived at that port.
tells a good story of the way an Amer
lean boy, without making himself Of
fensive, extorted tribute from
royalty. While the Louisiana was ly-
ing at Dublin, the prince of Wales,
who was then the guest of the lord
mayor of the Irish capital, sent word to
the captain that he would like to come
on board and see what an old-time
American clipper-ship was like. The
captains son heard what was going on,
and declared that he would make the
prince tip his hat to him. He knew, it
seems, that the prince was not in the
habit of uncovering in this way. When
the royal party came on board the boy
appeard on deck waving the American
flag. The prince, seeing the national
colors, lifted his hat, and the rest of
the party followed suit, to the great
delight of the captains son, who thus
had made good his boast.

The beadle in a rural district in
Perthshire had become too feeble to
perform his duties as minister's man
and grave digger, and had to get
an assistant The two did not agree
well, but after few months Sandy,
the beadle, died, and Tammas had to
perform the last service for his late
partner. The minister strolled up to
Tammas while he was giving the fin
ishing touches to the grave, and casu-
ally remarked: ''Have you put Sandy
weel down, Tammas?" II h that,
sir" said Tammas, very dec odly.
SANDY may get up, but he'll be among

UNITING FORCES.
Ohio Iron Miners Win Fight for an
Advance in Wages.


CLEVELAND, O., April 19.-Aetna
Lodge, No. Is, of the National Union of
Iron and Steel Workers, at meeting
last night, surrendered its charter and
at once reorganized as lodge of the
Amalgamated Association of Iron and
Steel workers. This is considered i'm
portant by iron workers, as it marks
the beginning of the dissolution of the
Finishers' Union, which was an Off
shoot of the Amalgamated association.
and its organization greatly weakened
that great association.
The iron workers count on the return
of the finishers to the Amalgamated as
ISOLATION to give them strength to make
the fight for an advance of wages at the
coming convention of the organization
in this city.

QUEEN vICTORlA'S WIT.
When Child Her Majesty Was Full of
Resources.

When a Child Her Majesty Was Full of
Resources.
When but a mere child, writes Alfred
T. Story in the Windsor Magazine, her
majesty used to delight George ". by
her quick wit.
One day when staying at the royal
lodge the king entered the drawing
room leading his little niece by the
hand. The band was stationed as
usual in the adjoining conservatory.
Now, Victoria, said his majesty the
band is in the next room and shall play
any tune you please; what shall it be?''
'Oh, uncle, replied the princess with
great readiness, Il should like God
Save the King better than anything
else" o.
A similar instance of childish quick
ness is related in regard to the queens
early studies in music:
Being one day required to practice at
the pianoforte, she objected, desiring
to know why it was necessary to spend
so much time in the drudgery of run
ming up and down scales. She was told
that there was no royal road to music,
and that she must practice like other
children. The little autocrat did not
agree with this, and quietly locked the
piano and put the key in her pocket,
saying: There, you see! There is no
must in the matter" Having made her
point, however, she was soon prevailed
upon to reopen the instrument, and so
proceed with her lesson.

GOLDFIELD LETTER.
How the Superstition Noun
tainS Are Built.
A Suggestion Concerning a Huge
Tunnel Through Them-School
Matters at Goldfield.

GoLDFIELD, Ariz.. April II, 1895.
There will be an election for board
of school trustees on Saturday. April 20.
1t is understood that Messrs. Walter
Lewis, J. G. Champion and John Nee
han will be among the candidates. AS
honest and capable men, having the
welfare of the rising generation at heart,
are desired, it is hoped that the Offices
will be awarded to the above named
gentlemen.
William Turn bow, formerly in the
employ of Peterson Bros, has left his
place to prospect on his claims in va
vapai county on the Santa Maria.
John Cave, promising young bust
ness man of Tempe, spent Easter Sun
day in Goldfeld, visiting among his
lady friends.
The Mammoth mill will soon be run
ming on ore from the Black Queen mine,
large bodies of free-milIing ore being
now available.
William A. Parrish, Denver mining
engineer, was IN town this week. He
has been examining property in Mex
leo for Goldfeld, Denver and Washing
ton capitalists. The ore, it is said,
averages two ounces in gold and twelve
ounces of silver, and the mine is valued
at half million dollars.
The Lamb brothers have in course of
erection an arastra on their claim near
the Superstition mine No. l. They eX-
pect to do we'll IS the ground looks
favorable. The work on the Old
Dominion property has been Temporal
rily suspended.
Three has been some prospecting
done OF late on top Of the Superstition
mountains. Contrary to the general
impression the mountain is highly
mineralized and it is composed of broad
porphyritic bands Of divers colors
alternating with metamorphic rocks.
Many of these porhyritic lodges contain
quartz and are in no sense different
from the lodges in the Goldfeld basin.
The Kimball lode and the Needle lode
are immense mineral lodges which pass
through the mountain running under
what appears to be trachyte bluff
which together with diorite seems to
form the Gaping of the mountain. 1t
would appear to an ordinary observer
lIOid tulo CdpPidS t4id1 bllC uOuAboiA
was composed of these rocks but close
inspection shows the porphyry bands to
form nearly one third of the mountain
mass. Water is in most of the gulches
near the top there being a constant
flow from the rocks, of course depend
ing in amount ON the time from the
last rainfall. The difficulty in making
an account of the mountain is fully
compensated for by the magnifcence of
the view spread out.
The desert appears plainly in sight !;
the Mesa road, with its space cleared
of underbrush. winds ON its way to
Mesa. The Salt and ella rivers can
both be seen on clear day. What are
called mountains in the valley appear
like ant hills from above. A PROPOSE
ton which would embrace tunnel
scheme into the Superstition mountain
would develope an abundance of water
and much ore probably of great value
If any considerable depth Is obtained
on the lodges. Assays from the ores on
top of the mountain and on the side
show the presence of gold in small
quantities, no worse than the top rock
of many valuabl lodes in the basin.
