An Actors Hard Lines.

When quite boy, the famous come
dian Blackstone joined company of
travelling players, and some time before
his death gave an amusing account of
his early struggles as an actor. 81 was
a country actor he said, land among
other vicissitudes once walked from
Northampton to London-72 miles-on
fourpence halfpenny." His costume
consisted of threadbare Whitley blue
coat, with furnished metal buttons, Sc
cured at the throat, because wore IN
derneath what we term lowered waist
coat made of glazed chintz and of
very snowy pattern, generally adopted
when playing country boys and sing
ing comic songs, which at that time
was my vocation l will not attempt to
describe my hat, while my trousers
must only be delicately alluded to, as
they were made of what was originally
white duck, but as they had been worn
about six weeks and having myself been
much in the fields there was a refresh
ing tint of green and clay color about
them" He carried small bundle con-
tanning red wig and pair of russell
boots. Under his arm was portfolio
containing sketches from nature and
some attempts at love poetry, while on
his feet to perform this distance of 70
miles were a pair of dancing pumps
tied up at the heels with pack threads

Why Ice Floats.

Ice is specifically Tighter" than wa
ter just about to freeze, and therefore
floats upon it. There is one reason why
the formation of ice usually, but not al
ways. begins at the surface. Another
reason is because of its peculiar law of
expansion. The general law is that cold
induces contraction. This holds good in
the case of water only to certain point.
When water has cooled down to within
z. degrees of freezing, it ceases to con-
tract as before, and, with increased cold,
actually begins to expand and continues
to do so until it freezes This expansion
causes the colder portions of the water
to rise to the surface.
Above we have said that ice does not
always begin to form at the surface of
the water. The exception is in the case
of what is known as ground or San
Choir ice. " In this case the whole body
of the water is cooled at the same time
to below the freezing point, and the
substance at the bottom, such as the
stones and pebbles of river Or lake beds,
serve as nucleus or point Of congelation
and capitalization for the water. This
rare species of ice is formed under such
peculiar circumstances that others than
students and experimenters seldom see
it.-St. Louis Republic.

The teaching Of morality, though it
is impressive, can hardly be recovered
after having been abandoned for long
time. Nay, we may rather venture to
say that when person gets corrupted
the doctrines of morality expire alto
gether. Whereas the doctrines of reli-
gion can never be extinguished in those
who once adhered to its teaching. The
Ten Commandments being given by the
supreme Power are so deeply iruplant
ed in the heart of man that they can
hardly be forgotten. On the contrary,
they stir up and remind the wrongdoer
of his misdeeds, SO that sooner or later
he repents and turns to do good to the
credit of himself Lewis p Hirsch.

Rats and Mice.

Rats and mice are difficult to deal
with. Poison is out of the question, for
they always choose a place in the house
to die. Traps fail to ensnare them. The
only plan to drive them away absolute
~ is to get quantity of potash, put it
in the sun till it becomes soft, and
then with stick smear every hole that
can be found. Sooner than walk through
this a rat will change his abode. From

pieces they throw away, pound fine and
throw in the holes. Being sharp, it
will cut their feet. This combination

The Sugar Bounty Remains in

of No Use.

$5.2OO,OOO.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27.-The senate
gave yesterday to the sundry civil
appropriation bill without completing
it and without taking up the vital
points concerning financial 1egisla-
ton The important feature of the
day was short, sharp and decisive
contest on the sugar bounty question,
resulting in the success of those adj
vocating the payment of the bounty
premature1y cut off by the enactment
of the tariff law. The proposed
bounty aggregates IS, 200, 900 as stated
in the amendments adopted, but Mr..
Mitchell gave it as his belief that it
would reach So, 900, 900. A point of
order was made against the amend
ment, but the senate voted it in or
der, 46 to Is.
After that the success of the bounty
proposition was assured, although
efforts were made to load it down
with free silver amendments and
the debate, Mr.. German warned the
senate that this bounty provision
would add to existing deficiencies,
which, he said, would reach 500, OO0,-
900 for the present year. The final
vote on the bounty proposition
showed the friends of the amend
ment very strong and they carried
the amendment easily.

"WAR CRY" BOYCOTTED.

war Between the Salvation Army and the
Typographical Union.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 27.-The boycott
of the War Cry by the Typographical
Union will probably result in an organ
lied fight against the Salvation Army by
the trades onions of the Pacific coast.
Steps are being taken by the union to &C.
complish this result. and copies of their
manifesto calling on all members of
unions to refrain from having anything
to do with the Salvation Army have been
sent all over the coast.
The War Cry offices of New York and
London are both under union rules and
the system works smoothly The print
ers are very confident OF winning in the
end, because Gen. Booth is known to be
in favor of labor organizations.
AT the headquarters of the Typo
graphical union the feeling is very bitter
against the action of Staff Captain Mil
saps. who discharged the two soldier
type settlers because they asked Gen
Booth to order the War Cry offices union
lied.
On the other hand Staff Captain Mil
saps is equally obdurate. He declares
he is the man who has sole control of the
local office, and by going to General
Booth Captain Merritt and Private
Hickok were guilty of conspiracy against
him (Milsaps).
