Marks TROUBLE.
Twain, the Humorist, Hauled into
Court.

Mr.. Clemens Mark Twain) came
pack from his European sojoun some
weeks ago, in a precarious physical
condition, as his appearance in certain
legal proceedings at New York made
evident. These proceedings were taken
by Thomas Russell X Sons. nrinters
to whom the late firm of Charles l..
Webster X Co., of which Mr.. Clemens
was the chief capitalist, was indebted
for about $4,000. There is no doubt
that the management Of the Webster
concern, especially after c. l.. Web
Ster death, was reckIeSSly unbuSi-
neSS-like; miSled by the success of the
Grant memoirs. they went into general
publishing as if they infallible, and
the ruin came. Nj. Clemens was the
victim of his active partners. Mrs.
Clemens waived her claim of $4,000
for money loaned, and the other cred
itors had all there was, and have so
far received a dividend of 20 per cent.
ON their claims. But the RusSels be-
ueye Mr.. Clemens millionaire and
press their account. When Mr.. Glenn
ems came to New York for eXamina-
ton he was attended by a nurse, and
was in a feeble condition. This is bad
news for all of us, for Mark Twain
is one of the rare geniuSeS of our day,
to whom we owe much more than
pleasure in his humor OF the west and
his Satiric observations Of Europe and
eiSew'here-We owe him finer delight
in such a charming book as The Prince
and the Pauper, with its burning hui
manity and lovely character depletion;
a deeper admiration for his trenchant
blow at the WickedneSS of slavery in
Pudd'nhead Wilson, and for all those
keen thrusts at what is evil in mans
attitude toward his fellow, in many
book, from the Yankee in King Az
thurs court to Joan of Arc. Mark
Twain is 10 passing humorist, but an
ardent sa titist who ought to give us
yet a gre~r American novel with all
his powers .et loose in it.

WHISK Y-MAkING.

The natives Of the Philippine islands
have a natural love for strong intOxi-
cants, particularly whisky, and if their
process of manufacturing it were not
so terribly slow they would all be
hard drinkers. AS it is, they drink
all they can get. Tagal whisky is
made from the juice Of the sugar cane,
fermented and distilled. The juice is
extracted by pounding the cane over
a piece Of log and allowing the Juice
to fall into trough. When the cane
is broken into fine pieces, water is
poured over it, and it lis allowed to
stand in the sun until 1T ferments.
Then it is ready for the ingenious
la tive process Of di9tillatiOn. Four
gallon water jugs are set on the
ground as close as their bulging sides
Will permit. Earth is covered over
the upper part, and falls down part
way, where it is stopped by the bulg-
ing jugs thus leaving an open space
underneath around the bottoms of the
Jugs. The heat from the furnace
passes through this opening and boils
the fermented juice with which the
vessels are filed. The steam passes
out through pieces Of hollow bamboo,
and, still in bamboo pipes, it is in
troduced into a hollow log standing
on end. Water from the creek flows
through this log over the cells of bam-
boo which contain the steam, which
quickly cOndenses and falls into a
large jug set to catch it, while the
THIRSTY ma tives wait around and fume
at the slow process. Certainly the
whisky is pure, and the missionaries
say it is healthy, and, queerly enough,
10 not object to the natives use of it.
They probably consider it wise to COLI
sent to what they cannot prevent. On
account of its purity the whisky never
leranges the stomach, but a quart Of
t intoxicates quickly and thoroughly.
