| " 4dIbCH DGOLCzAL4ON,
 To-day New York will again do hon
 or to the imperishable name and fame
 of Washington, this time in the dedi-
 cation Of a beautiful commemorative
 arch, Washington Arch, erected in that
 city to commemorate the virtues, the lofty patriotism, the vast services to
 this people of the Father of His Coun-
 try. New York was the scene of many
 of the most trying times of the great
 revolutionary struggle and the joy of
 being finally freed of the invaders is
 very appropriately and duly commemo-
 rated in the celebration of Evacuation
 day. That was a day of vast import
 ance in it's meaning to us as peo-
 pie.
 Paris has long had it's triumphal arch in honor of Napoleon. New York has at last erected one in honor of Washing ton-not as grand, as artistic as that in Paris, but nevertheless an arch mer- llOllouS III It's ueSl5u anu CteulldDle to a great city. The washington re- vival' of to-day means much to every patriotic heart, and is due in great measure to the influence of the va- rious patriotic societies now so four ishing, societies whose special aim and object is to keep alive the memories of the patriotism, the self denial and self abnegation, the sacrifices, the heroism, by which this country was born and which 1t took it's place among the great nations of the earth. It is well. it is fortunate that these memories are being fostered-that the spirit of '76 is recalled and honored Especially Is it so in these days when the process of assimilating heterogeneous material, as Chauncey Depew phrased it, Is a big task for the country's digestion, and in these days also when the perils of vast wealth, of stupendous fortunes, exist, when the love of money too often over shadows honor and patriotic impulse and aims the aspirations for higher and better things. The Washington reviv- al" will do much for the nation if it patriotic feeling, love of coun- try and fosters higher aims and aspira- ions in all that relates to the best good | ,f the individual and the best interests | of this fair heritage of ours.
 The arch to be dedicated to-day is an | lrtistic affair, simple, chaste and come y in design, built of marble and cost ng $130,OOO. The exercises will be i'm posing and with fine weather to-day a vast multitude of people will no doubt ,iew the parade which is to be had and | will perhaps be impressed anew with ! he fact that he who unselfishly benefits 'thers Is worthy of honor, and en- hrines himself In the hearts of others, while as an object lesson in patriotism he demonstration and the arch will ave a great and lasting influence.

FASHION NOTES.
Great Times for Glitter.

Spangling continues without abate- ment. The most delicate materials are thus weighted; passementeries come a half yard wide and solid mass of glittering disks overlapped; and the seams of gowns are followed by oyer- tapping spangles, reproducing the ef- feet that used to be given by piping. This last effect is ruinous to the artis- tic ensemble of gown, but at the same time emphasizes the graceful curves of fine figure. The spangles are of all kinds and all sizes. Some are cut like five-pointed stars and are as big as dimes; others are the usual theatre

Daudet intends to study London, as it is in part the scene of his new story, "Soutien de Famille." Daudet says that shortly before the publication of La Petite Paroisse," a rich Spaniard offered him 15O,0OO francs if he would dedicate the book to him. He refused, and considers the blank page the best thing in the book.

On the island of Pantellaria, midway between Sicily and the Afri- can coast, Dr. Orsi has discovered a prehistoric village of the stone age, surrounded by a colossal wall made of stones heaped together. He has also found out that the strange buildings called Sesi are dome-shaped prehistoric tombs, and has identified the remains of small Greek temple. The island lies completely out of the way of travel, and is used by the government as a con- Nict settlement.

Queen Margherita of Italy has a curious hobby, the collection of shoes. She has pair that belonged to Joan of Arc, those worn by Mary, Queen of Scots, on her way to the scaffold, a pair of slippers of Marie Antoinette, and shoes once owned by Ninon Len- clos and by Queen Louise of Prussia. Her dearest treasures, however, are the knitted silk socks and the little leather shoes first worn by the Prince of Naples.

The report of the visiting committee made to the Massachusetts legislature is to the effect that 100000 spindles are now under contract to be started with in the next six months down South. It is considered safe to estimate at 3,0O0,OOO spindles, the total number that will be in operation there by the end of the next cotton year. Viewed in competition with the multifold greater number installed in the North, this is but a small number, but it is an inn portant beginning.

Lemons in Sou thern Italy.

The damp, soft air of Sorrento is per-
feet for the cultivation of the orange,
cp: Massa-Lubrense, which is dry and
more rSeltered, is given up to the pro-
duct OF lemons, which yield an enor-
nous percectage to the fortunate pos
SCISSORS of lano that can be used for
that purpose. Orange trees are here
and sthere Mingled with the lemons,
just as lemon trees will be seen in the
midst of the orange-groves of Sorrento,
though in neither case they are the
chief produce of the place. Massa-Lu-
brense is largely indebted for its salu-
brious air to it's lemon planta-
tions. Three years must pass
before newly-planted lemon
tree begins to bear fruit; and
in order to bring it to perfection, it
must be freely watered. A hollow is
dug around the base of the tree to re-
ceive the water as in basin, so that it
may slowly penetrate to the roots.
Poles are planted at intervals in the
ground, somewhat higher than the
| trees, and smaller poles or canes are
placed crossways above them, which
are covered with mating when the
winter approaches. 1t is not removed
till the spring is well advanced, for
lemon trees must be most carefully
! sheltered from wind or frost The
fruit is gathered chiefly during the
summer months, especially in May,
July and September, though there are
lemons on the trees all the year round.

sBhe' doesn't get Cross, NUr refuse TO play
any more. She just climbs ont from
under, shakes the dust out of her
skirts, mounts the bah again, and is
ready for another start.
III a down grade lis encountered the
work is so much the easier, although
bugs and ball win frequently land in q
heap Mt the bottom. But when an up
grade or n large obstacle intervenes the
/ trouble is very great. In such case
tumble bugs will do one of two things:
They will either desert the bali or go in
search of help. In the former case an
other family will frequently happen
along. and take charge of affairs, just
as. if the ball were their'own. In the
latter case the neighbors always turn
out. IL there are, any such.
If you handle'tumble bugs while they
are at work they remain very quiet I'M
til Won get through, and then resume
rolling the ball Nothing seems to dis
turb them. - ,...,-,,.-.-
After the baii has fairly started the
bugs frequently leave it, running
around without apparent reason. They
are, however, searching for a good
place of deposit. The hole in which it
finally rests is several inches and often
a foot or more in depth, and in order
that the bugs may be able to excavate
it the digging" must be good.
When the site is once chosen queer
method of making the hole is resorted
to. The way ofrolling the ball is COM
monplace compared toit. You would
naturally think that the bugs would
first dig the hole and then push the ball
into it. No such thing. They quite
reverse the process. One of the bugs
gets under the ball and digs with his
hind legs, throwing the dirt out around
the edges As he gets lower the ball
sinks with him, and when the hole is
deep enough he digs his way around
the ball, which has followed him all
the way, and then pushes up through
the loose dirt to the surface. What be
does for fresh air during this process is
something that no man can find out.
When the egg matches in the subter-
ranean abode the larvae feed on the
material of their envelope. In course
of time they surround themselves with
the same material, cemented together
with a gelatinous substance exuded
from their bodies, and later emerge as
perfect insects. The ancient Romans
esteemed the larvae of the tumble bug
as great delicacy. They were eaten
after being fried delicate brown.
Modern epicures have taken to snails.

FUNNY LITTLE INSECT.
How the Tumble Bug Hatche
and Hides Eggs
The Clever Beetle Is of Great Interest,
Aside from the Fact That He Was
Worshiped by the Egyptians
of Many Centuries Ago.

There is found in every state of the
union little insect that used to be
god. His history is a wonderful &C
count of ups and downs. You would
never guess from his personal appear
ance, says the New York Herald, that
he was once worshiped by human be-
ings, for he is very plain and modest
looking. He goes about his daily toll
in the most cheerful and matter-of-faet
way, seemingly more interested in rear
ing heirs than in studying ancestors
he recks not that his name was once
Sacred Scarabaeus of the Egyptians.
To-day he is plain Mr.. Tumble Bug, at
your service.
But the tumble bug is of great in
terest in himself, leaving out all men
ton of his history. This is on account
of the peculiar manner in which the
Matching of the egg is provided for.
After being laid it is Immediately rolled
up in ball of mud and manure, about
the size of big marble. When the
ball is thoroughly dried Mr.. and Mrs.
Tumble Bug start it rolling, in search
of some convenient place in which to
bury it. This place may not be found
for some yards, and the ingenuity dis
played in navigating" it over that dis
lance is far greater than that shown by
some human beings in their chosen
business.
In the first place the ball is round.
This, of course, is the best form for
rolling. But even then the slightest
inequality of the ground. or even a
blade of grass, would present serious
obstacle. OF course, if the tumble bug
were as big as mouse he could carry
the ball in his mouth; if he were
adapted for pushing, he could move it
in that way; but, unfortunately, he is
neither. In solving the problem, in
spite of so many difficulties. he illus
trates the old saying that there is more
than one way of killing a cat.
The method is this. Mrs Tumble
Bug climbs up on top of the ball, and
gets good and ready to move toward
the front edge, so as to start it going.

The Afiliation Plan of DR.. Harper of the
Chicago University.

Baptist colleges and academies are
preparing to come under the wing OF
the University of Chicago. Dr.. Harper's
great educational plan of utilization Is
gaining favor and foothold i'll the north
west. There is strong probability that
as MANY as a dozen institutions will
affiliate with the university this year,
and that thousand more students will
soon be working i'll various places o.
learning for its bachelors degrees.
The advantage in the system is in
general economy of adjustment in the
various educational factors The univer-
sity will secure greater breadth and
completeness. 1t will have control OF all
preliminary education. Repetition of
courses will be avoided. Students will
be able to enter the university at an
earlier age. The standard of the acade-
mics will be raised. Instructors could
go from school to school. The academy
and college would receive aid in books
and apparatus from the university. The
academy and college, being at dis
lance, would be free to develop their
own peculiar spirit and life and be free
from the deleterious effects of close
social union.
The system in its perfection would be
complete within itself. Graduates in
the university, who would be familiar
with the unique features, would receive
positions as teachers in the colleges and
academies. Courses of study taken in
the colleges will receive credit toward q
university degree just as if they were
taken on the university campus. Chi
