JAPANESE sPINNERs.
Preparing to Spin Cotton and Ship
Largely From American
Cotton Fields,

BALTIMORE, Oct. 3.-Col. John
A. Cockerill, writing from Yoko-
hama, Japan, to the Manufacturers
Record says: The Cotton Spinners'
association Of Osaka is now trying
to induce the Japanese government
to subsidize a line to ply between
Osaka and Yokohama and point
on the west coast of Mexico. The
idea Is to secure a steamship line,
wholly controlled by the Japanese
government and which will con-
meet with the Tehauntepec railway.
By this route it is thought the cot
ton of the southern states can be
reached cheaper than by the way
OF Tacoma. 1t is more than likely
that this enterprise will be carried
out, for the Japanese are giving
great attention to the subject OF
colonization in Mexico. Another
company has been formed here,
with Viscount Enamato at its
head, to purchase lands in Mexico
and locate there some of the sur
plus population Of Japan. Japan
is destined to become one OF the
greatest spinning countries in the
world. She will purchase 80 per
cent Of her material in the United
States, when the transportation
rates are properly adjusted.

New YORK, Oct. 3.-The Iron
Age today says: While in some
respects the situation has cleared
1t Is fact that there is much that
is perplexing still. During the
past few days, there have been
sales Of steel rails aggregating at
least 1850 tons, partly for this

delivery. This includes $4,000
tons for the Pennsylvania railroad,
large blocks for the b. & o., and
some good orders from the west.
The steel rail makers have decided
to fix the price for 1896 at $500.
The price of Bessemer pig has
sagged off in the valleys to close to
$1,000, but transactions have been
moderate and the offerings have
been almost exclusively from
second hands. Steel billets have
declined to about $22.75 to $23.00
at Wheeling, or its equivalent at
Pittsburg, under light sales. The
only active spot seems to be Chica-
go, where considerable business
has been done. The only advance
recorded in finished iron or steelis
that on wrought iron pipe; other
wise, the tendency has been the
other way. The demand for struc-
tural material is moderate and
here, too, lower and weaker prices
are cropping up. In foundry irons,
all the leading markets are quiet.

De Youns's Purchases in Europe for

Thinks He Has Good Stuff.


Nrw YORK, Oct, S.-H. H. De
yonng q, the San francisco Chron-
icle, explaind the purchases which
he made while in Europe for the
new permanent museum, erected
as memorial to the Mid Winter
fair. He said: 81 am quite salts
fed with my long trip to Europe.
We have had a pleasant time. AS
silver man am glad to say that
England is coming right to the
front and giving some points to
work on. The silver question is a
burning one in England, where
10000 men have organized the Bi.
metallists' League with William
Grenyille, a Bank of England di-
rector, as president. The league
issues paper and it is now on the
carpet to ask for international COM
missioners to meet and devise
methods looking to the welfare of
white metal. 1 am myself in favor
of immediate congressional action
in favor of silver for the benefit OF
not only America, but the whole
world.
/ went abroad to make purchases
for the memorial museum, which
we created out of the profits OF
our big fair. The museum was
formally opened six months ago,
or about a week before l sailed for
Europe. 1 bought up a good deal of
stuff before 1 left the United States.
Abroad / made purchases in Lon
don, Paris, Berlin, Nuremburg,
Hamburg and in Switzerland. Al
together / have. shipped one hum
bred cases, sixty-seven on the Lith-
onia and thirty cases on the
Strathdom, direct to San Francis
co, The balance went via New Or
leans. Napoleon the great had
seven chairs in France and I've
bought one of them for our muse
UNI. Two OF the chairs were miss.
ing for years, one being stolen
from st. Cloud during the fire and
the other being filched from the
palace of the Tuileries during its
partial destruction. Pm not quite
sure which of these two chairs L
have bought. The history OF the
chair is that, after burning the
palace, thieves stole the chair In
question aud buried it. The one l
have was buried for twenty years
and then discovered. The seat and
back were missing and had been
replaced, otherwise the chair was
intact. / had the bottom chiselled
open and found the makers name.
Moreover, / have certificate at
testing the history and value OF
the chair.
At the great legal auction shop
at Paris, the hotel Drout, l bought
knives and forks 1000 years old and
antique iron hardware dating back
to the reign of Louis XIII, XIV
and XIV. This iron consisted of es-
cutcheons, door pulls, chest latches,
hinges and monograms. also got
a gilt grand piano, a la Louis XIV,
with double quibbs. There is a
bedstead which Napoleon gave to
Mars, a particular friend of his,
who played at the Coincide Fran
caise, This bedstead is fac simile
OF Napoleon's own bedstead, now at
Versailles, except that it bears her
monogram instead Of Napoleon's.
l have also secured jewels, clocks,
medals and furniture OF the time
of Louis XIV, XIV and XVI and Of
the first empire. 1 do not care to
say what l paid for these articles,
but l do believe that they are all
genuine relics"

globes or lamps Only general direc-
lions can be given for these shades, as
there are SO many sizes, but following
is advice Oh the subject given in The
Ladies' Home Journal:
Cut strip of asbestus paper 2 inches
wide and long enough to fit snugIy
around the larger part of the globe. Cut
strip of Grape paper the same length
as the asbestus band and 0 inches wide.
Glue it to the band 2 inches below the
edge anG rufie the heading and lower
edge Of Grape by pulling the paper with
the right hand between the thumb and
finger of the left hand. Crease the pa
per under about one inch below the
band and stretch between the fingers
the same as the edge. This gives more
graceful shape and also keeps the paper
from coming in contact with the glass
shade, which is sometimes hot enough
to scorch anything that may touch it.
To make a chrysanthemum globo
shade, illustrated by the authority quot
ed, wire frame made the shape of a.
globe is used, quite open at the top and
the bottom ring the size for any shade
frame, so that it will fit on the lamp

chrysanthemum, making them in strips
instead of around circle as for tie
flowers. These petals are curled by plac-
ing them against the knee and rolling
the round end of a hatpin over them,
from the point toward you. After you
have a number Of strips curled begin
gluing them to the globe, commencing
at the top and going round and round
closely so the petals fall together. BY
experimenting with few strips one can
readily judge how many will be re-
quired. A row of leaf green petals
around the bottom of the globe adds an
effective and artistic finish. To make
tulips or daffodiIs, much the better way
is to take natural flowers and cut pat
tern from them.
The same idea carried out in favors
has resulted in some charming trifles,
among which is described and sketched

The ex-GOvernor's Eldest Daughter En-
te-tnins Her Dancing Glass.
Miss Jessie Lewelling, who now con-
ducts ladies' and children's dancing
school at Wichita. gave a large party
one night last week. A local paper says:
The hall, which has recently been re-
modelled, is now one of the prettiest and
most attractive in the city, and though
hardly as large as the Garfield, promises
to fill long felt need The papering of
the old walls in light buff the varnish-
ing and painting of the wood work, and
the removing of the ratings from the
rear of the hall and the front platform
have transformed the old place.
The decorations were prOfuse. The
platform was a veritable garden of
palms, ferns, and chrysanthemums,
among which were placed aquariums.
Banquet and piano lamps also lent their
beauty to the general scene. Other
parts of the hall were similarly decorated
and a cosy reception room with card
tables, which opened from the hall, was
attractive with lamps, rugs and flowers.
Miss Lewelling wore an empire gown
of white silk figured with violets, The
trimmings were of purple velvet and
violets. She carried a bouquet of white
roses and English violets The dances
weresannounced and were about twenty
in number. Professor Sanford and his
wife furnished the music. Seventy five
couples were present.

FOR YOUNG WIVES.
Advices which, If Needed, VIII Lessen
the Friction OF Married Life.

Advices Which, If Needed, VIII Lessen
the Friction of Married Life.
Some excellent advice to a young
wife consists of an earnest exhortation
to preserve discreet silence with respect
to family matters, says Princess.
Always remember that what you
learn about your husbands family is
to be kept to yourself; that when you
married him and took his name you be-
came one of the family, and the little
trouble, the little skeleton, is not to
be discussed with the members of the
family in which you were born. To
your sister it may mean nothing that
some trouble has come to your hus
bands brother. You may tell it to her
in secrecy, and it may seem of so little
Importance that she will repeat it to
her sister-in-law, and gradually what
was meant to be kept quiet is told all
round the neighborhood. The art of
keeping to yourself what you hear on
each side of the house is one that you
must cultivate, for it means the keep
ing of peace. Surely, you would not
wish to hurt your husband, and yet you
will do it if you cannot keep quiet.
When you enter his mothers house,
anything that is told to you in conf
dence must be forgotten when you
leave it, unless, indeed, it is discussed
with your husband, and the same rule
will apply to your own family. Don't
imagine that every little frown, every
little disagreeable word is meant for
you, and do not retail to your husband
anything unpleasant that may have
happened when you were visiting at
his mothers house. Think that she is
your mother, too, and give her the priv
ilege of speaking to you as your mother
does. I know it isn't always easy to
have fault found with one when one is
trying to do ones best, but think over
what is said, if there is anything help
full in it. It is in the woman's power
to make or mar the sanctity of mar
rage by the manner in which she ac
cepts its possibilities. 1t is as due
to the earnest endeavors of a good wife
that many a husband has been re-
claimed or prevented from leading the
downward path, as, unfortunately, it is
that carelessness or indifference or
neglect from the weaker half in
physical strength has weakened her
power and made her influence useless.

OUNCES OF PREVENTION.

Wear clean apron while ironing or
bed-making.
To clean bamboo furniture use a
brush dipped in salt water.
The eyes should be bathed every
night in cold water just before retiring
and they will do better work the follow
ing day.
When very tired lie on the back, al
lowing every muscle to relax, letting
the hands go any way they will, and
keep the eyes closed.
If you have to sew all day change your
seat occasionally and so obtain rest.
Bathing the face and hands will also
stimulate and refresh.
Oil stains may be removed from wall
paper by applying for four hours pipe
clay, powdered and mixed with water
to the thickness of cream.
For stains in mating from grease
wet the spot with alcohol, then rub on
white CASTLE soap. Let this dry in a
cake and then wash off with warm salt
water

WHEREIN THEY DIFFER.
How . Magazine Writer Compares Maj
and His Sisters.

How . Magazine Writer Compares Man
and His Sisters
Man is a creature of cast-iron habits;
woman adapts herself to circumstances.
This is the foundation of the moral diff
ference between them.
A man does not attempt to drive a
nail unless he has a hammer; woman
does not hesitate to utilize anything.
from the heel of a boot to the back of a
brush.
A man considers a corkscrew abso-
lutely necessary to open a bottle; a
woman attempts to extract the cork
with the scissors; if she does not sue
coed readily she pushes the cork into
the bottle, since the essential thing is to
get at the fluid.
Shaving is the only use to which a
man puts razor; woman employs it
for a chiropodist's purposes.
When man writes, verything must
be in apple-pie order; pen, paper and
ink must be just so, and profound 81
lence must reign when he performs this
important function. A woman gets any
sort of paper, tears it, perhaps, from a
book or portfolio, sharpens a pencil
with scissors, puts the paper on an old
atlas, crosses her feet, balances herself
on her chair and confides her thoughts
to paper, changing from pencil to pen
and vice versa from time to time, nor
does she care if the children romp or the
cook comes to speak to her.
A man storms if the blotting paper is
not conveniently near; a woman dries
the ink by blowing on it, waving the
paper in the air or holding it near a
lamp or fire.
A man drops a letter unhesitatinglv
in the box; a woman rereads the ad-
dress, assures herself that the envelope
is sealed, the stamp secure, and then
throws it violently into the box.
For man ''good-by" signifies the end
of a conversation and the moment of his
departure; for woman it is just the
beginning of a new chapter, for it is
just when they are taking leave of each
other that women think of the most i'm
portant topics of conversation.
A woman ransacks her brain trying
to mend a broken object; man puts it
aside and forgets that for which there
is no remedy.
Which is superior? = Lippincott's
Magazine.
