4 Confession Clcnrs q Mystery.

KEwANEE, Ill, Nov. 24.-The con-
fession Of Charles Bull to the robbery
OF $4,000 from his employers, Otto and
Henry Rastede, clears a mystery which
has puzzled the sheriff OF the county
and his deputies for three weeks. Bulls
employers kept their valuable papers
and money in tin box, which was
buried under the front porch, because
Henry Rastede's wife objected to so
much money being kept in the house.
Bull saw him come from under the
porch, stole the treasure when his en-
ployers were absent and buried the
papers in a cornfeld.

the same collection is formed OF sin.
gle Peruvian emerald weighing 1850
carats, which is said to have been part
of the treasure of Burgundy. Here,
also, is the imperial crown of Austria,
made during the reign of Rudolph II.
It is of pure gold, richly adorned with
diamonds, pearls, and rubies. The
circlet is of gold, encircled with large
fat diamonds and pearls, two ranges
of deeply set pearls decorating the
border. The upper border OF the cir.
clet is adorned with four large and
four small heur-de-lys ornaments bear
ing large rubies, diamonds, and pearls.
The skeleton of the cap is composed OF
broad stripes of enamel, accompanied
by range of pearls on either side of
the hoop which divides the cap into
two halves. Each half is formed by
two triangular plates of gold, on which
the principal scenes of the coronation
are wrought in bas-relief. The hoop
is surmounted by little cross adorned
by sapphire of matchless beauty.
This is one of the most remarkable
specimens of German goldsmith's work
extant, and in point of value and gem
eral workmanship is unique of its
kind.-New York Sun.

Number Of Stars.

The latest computation on the STARS
visible in both hemispheres puts the
number of such shining orbs up to the
high mark of 100, 900, ,OGO. The astrono-
mers have odd ways of estimating the
number of these brilliant points of
light, says the st. Louis Republic. BY
figuring from the apparent diameter
of tho full moon. it is shown that the
arena of the whole sky visible to man
lin both hcmispheres) is Al, 125 square
degrees. The area of We whole star
space, according to this mode of reck-
oning, is only equal to about 200,0 900
times the area of o full moon, figuring
that the moons apparent diameter at
that time is slightly over half de-
gree.
This would give 2,424 stars to each
square degree, or total of hundred
millions, which would be equal to 800
stars on each space in the sky as large
as full moon.

Scientific Horticulture.

The serious injury inflicted on the
California orange crop recently by
frost has naturally had the effect of
bringing out large number of plahs
for the future protection of the orange
groves in California. One inventor
asserts confdentially that any orange
tract can be fully protected against
the seyerest frost that the State ia ever
likely to be visited by. His plan is to
create an artificial fog, which over
hangs the trees, and keeps them from
harm. 1t is familiar fact that there
is no danger from frost on d cloudy
night; the clouds prevent the rapid
radiation of heat from the earth. and
thus serve as O sort of blanket. A
fog, which is nm earth cloud, serves
the same purpose. The orchard pro-
vided with the fos-making device is
underlaid by system of small pipes
that carry water. Connected with
these are perpendicular pipes, which
rise to height of forty feet in the
Dir. AT the top of these pipes, which
run 100 to every ten acres, arc two
"cyelone nozzles," which discharge
the water in fine spray in an upward
direction. When The water is turned
on the cir is said to be charged with o
fine fog-llks mist. The turning on is
done either automatically or by an
electrical arrangement, which is actu-
ated when the thermometer runs down
to freezing point, or by the watch
man, who is awakened by the sound
ing of an alarm attached to thermo-
stat whenever the air becomes cold
enough for the orchard to need its
mantle of mist. 1t is said that within
o few minutes of the turning on of the
water in tho pipes and spray nozz'es
the mist fills the air to height OF
forty-fve feet, and any breeze drifts
it about like bank of fog.-Jackson-

WASHING THE PIANO.

Having been told repeatedly that The
best way to clean piano cnse was to
wash it with soap and water, says cor :
respondent of Good Housekeeping, I
somehow never could quite make mp
my mimi to try it after oil, for it
seemed as though the soapy water
must surely spoil the brilliant polish
in spite OF NIL assurances to the con-
trary. But when our beautiful piano
began to look dull and milky, and 1
realized that tho time had come when
something must be done if would
have it restored to its pristine splen-
dor, I determined to find out if pos.
sible all about it, and then to make
the experiment resolutely if I became
convinced that 1t really was the best
way.
Accordingly, the first opportunity
which presented itself was taken to
ask the piano tuner about it, knowing
that he was sent out by one of the
oldest and most reliable firms of the
sayntry.
Certainly" he replied in tone 80
convincing as to quite Danish doubts.
"Just let me have dish of tepid, soft
water, o cake of soap and three
pieces of clean, sleazy Canton Aan-
ncl."
When I had brought the articles
designated, he at once proceeded to
show how it was to be done.
"Take the first piece of cloth aud
wet it, he said, suiting the action to
the word, "then rub it over the cake
of soap and apply it to the pisno-a
small portion of the surface ut time.
Next wet the second piece, and with
this rub off the sonp as thoroughly as
possible. With the third piece dry
the part, rubbing it till it shines
brightly, and do it nll as quickly as
possible, that the soap may not remain
too long upon the polished surface"
I was delighted with the result, and
no longer felt any hesitation about
continuing the work that he Ind be-
gun. If one is very sure to get thin,
cheap quality of Canton flannel and is
careful to follow directions as here
given, success is certain.

New Printing Process.

Perhaps the most remarkable pro-
cess on view at the Royal Society's re-
ception was that for producing illus
trated magazines and newspapers
entirely by photography, dispensing
with engravings and s'half-tono"
blocks, and even with Typography.
Reels of sensitized paper rush through
machinery which may be compared in
principle with the rotary web printing
presses.
In place of topographic cylinders
you have cylinders of transparent
s'negative," illuminated from the in
side, which sprint" the sensitized
paper with great rapidity. as it passes
round them. Thence the web passes
through developing" and "fxing"
baths, and finally emerges in out
sheets ready for binding. The letter
press is even "set-up" photographically
by kind of typesetting machine, SO
as to produce q negative of each line
automatically, 1t is said that pop
ular illustrated monthly will, in all
probability be produced by this
method before long.

WORDS OF WISDOT.
Pains-taking is gains-making.


Book borrowers are generally good
book keepers.
The nan who sits down to wait for
golden opportunity to knock at his
door will need thick cushion on his
chair.
The trouble with tho man who is al
ways talking about what he'd do if he
had plenty of money, is that he never
has any.
Such as thy words ore, such will thy
affections be esteemed; and such will
thy deeds as thy affections; and such
thy life as thy deede.
The true way TO be humble is not to
stoop till you are smaller than your
self, but to stand at your real eight
against some higher nature that shall
show you what the real smallness of
your greatest greatness is.
1t is always hard to go beyond your
public. If they are satisfied with
cheap performance, you will not easily
arrive at better. II they know what
is good and require it, you will aspire
and turn until you achieve it. But
from time to time, in history, men
are born whole ago too soon.
Leave children an accumulated for
tune of memories and inspirations and
examples and hopes, go that they are
rich in brain and heart aud soul and
service. Then, if you happen to leave
them o fortune besides, if they have
oil these, the fortune will be shorn of
its possibilities of evil, aud will be-
come an instrument of higher and
nobler good.
There is always room for man Of
force, and he makes room for many.
Society is troop of thinkers, and the
best heads among them take the best
places. A feeble man can see the
farms that are fenced and titled, the
houses that are built. The strong man
sees the possible houses and farms.
His eye makes estates as fast as the sun
breeds clouds.
