THE SALVATION ARMY WAR.
Perils of Friendly Call at Rival Head
quarters.

The gentle heart Of Joe the Turk"
otherwise and less generally known as
Ensign Joseph Garabed of the Salvation
army is filled with righteous Indignation
The objects of his anger are members
of the rival movement known as the
American volunteers, whom he accuses
of "uncharitable and unchristian treat
ment" that was uncalled for and I'M
merited."
Joe the Turk" has, besides his Sal
walton army uniform, an inseparable
companion in the shape of an enormous
umbrella rainbow hued as to color and
ornamented with words of warning TO
the unrighteous. In addition to such SER
mons in brief as "Jesus is mighty TO
save" Heaven is real and so is hell"
'No cross, no crown" the umbrella is
decorated with pictures of General
Booth, the founder of the Salvation
army, and Mrs. Booth, his deceased
wife.
This umbrella Joe the Turk" has been
in the habit of carrying high in the air
when the army marches out, in order
that sidewalk spectators may read the
flaming texts and be duly Impressed
thereby.
When the secession Of Darlington
Booth from the ranks Of the army took
place, zoe the Turk" and his umbrella
remained with the parent organization.

bicycling for Business Purposes.

Down : casters are nothing if not
practical. Iu New York and elsewhere
the bicycle is regarded as an Instrument
of recreation and the riding of u bike"
is considered as quite the proper thing
to do.
In New Hampshire, however, the
bicycle has another use aud in that
land. where bifurcated skirts are nm
known. it IS regarded very much rs a
w~heelbarrow Oh any other farm iMple-
ment and is oftentimes patronizcd for
evenue only.
For example, one remarks on the roads
in the neighborhood of Concord, N. H.,
many workingmen on bicycles, who
ride in a very businesslike manner and
who would resent with violence the i'm
putation of being anything akin to
dudes.
These ~bicyclists are employed on adj
jacent farms OF in erecting buildings at
! distance from New Hampshire's cap
ital, and by those who have taken up
bicycle riding as a means of covering a
great deal of ground in the least posi-
Die time.

QUEER THINGS IN JAVA.
Millions of a Pigmy Race Who Work for
10 Cents q Day.

w. c. Knoofe, a rich coffee and sugar
grower of Java. is among the recentar-
rivals at the California. MI. Knoofe is
accompanied by several friends. He
has lived in Java ten years and has
large and tlourishing plantations.
He told an interesting story yesterday
about this queer country. for so many
years under the control of the Dutch,
and said that few persons understood
the strange conditions of life there.
"You never saw such happy people
anywhere rs these little Javanese. They
are always talking, laughing and dane
ing and seem never to have any sort of
care. They work in the tea, coffee and
sugar plantations for s or 9cents a day,
aud the best of them never get over 10
OF II cents. Yet they are entirely con
tented. The women, who are the best
for tea-picking. do not get more than
4 or 5 cents Il day. The tea is cut every
forty days, SO there is always work to
do. There is a big yield this year, and
it is good tea, but it isn't worth much.
We got word from Amsterdam, where
much of II tea goes. that it wa worth
only from 9 to 10 cents Il pound.
with coffee and sugar the price is
different. There never was as much
money in sugar as al the present time.
1t is worth from $3.50 to S3.6 10 for each
pickel, or 1874 pounds. The growers
are getting rich. Both the coffee and
sugar crops are very large, and, like
the tea, they are very fine. Coffee has
veered around SO much that there is no
longer much money in it. All that is
grown must be sold to the government.
That is a requirement. 1t is cheap. In
Holland it is worth but S. for each 1874
pounds.
"All the labor used is Javanese. 1t
would not pay lis to employ any other,
and though the wages are small, the
people are probably the happiest on the
globe. Their wants are few, the eli
mate is so mild that little is worn ant,
they are rs jolly as the day. There are
y. 900, 0C0 of them, and the Dutch gov.
crnl1eut las never had the slightest
trouble with any of them"
MI. Knoofe is OH his way to London
and Amsterdam, which cities he has no
visited for many years. He will go by
the Canadian Pacific road.-San Fran

The Bird That Flies the Longest.

MI. j. Lancaster, an American natu-
ralist, who has spent five years OH the
west coast of Florida, studying the birds
there, has come to the conclusion that
of all the feathcred tenants of the air
the "frigate bird" can fly the longest
without resting. He has seen one fly
ing for a whole week night and day
without repose. The frigate bird can
feed. collect materials for its nest and
even sleep on the wing. Apparently
its wings can be controlled automatic
ally or by reflex action, without the
power of its will and it probably adapts
itself to take advantage of the upward
or bearing force of the wind, which
Prof. Langley has shown to support
kites and birds in soaring and proposes
to employ in his flying machine. The
spread of the frigate birds wing is great
and it can fly at a speed of nlnety-six
miles all hour, without seeming to flap
its wings much. In fact, Prof. Lang
ley and others interested in flying ma
chimes might study the movements of
the birds with profit by means of in-
Simultaneous photographs. The albat-
loss. that king of the high seas" as
Mr.. Lancaster calls it, is larger than
the frigate bird. but if it follows a YES
sci for four or five days it has to rest on
a rock or on the ship itself.-CasseWs

CAR. OF Tns BATH ROOM.
How 10 Keep Disease Away from 10
Much Used Apartment.

Those persons who rush into the bath
room, splash around q Willingness .ttiip a
few towels, saturate sponges and rush
ont again. leaving the wilieaf to rim out
of the bath-tub if it will, and the towels
to dry in 4 heap on the floor. have very
little idea of the possible mischief OF
which they may be guilty.
In the first place it is a fact very lit
tie understood that II sponge is by no
means - iii article to use in taking a
bath. IL is convenient end agreeable
and all that. but it is the plumbers hest
friend, and those who value perfection
in their plumbing long ago learned to
have none of it.
The sponge, especially after ii has
been used a short time, is continually
shedding little PARTICLES of itself. These
lodge in the pipes, and in many cases
attach themselves TO little rough places
on the inside. One house where the
water drained away very slowly was
examined all through. the bath room.
of course, at the last. whN it was found
that II OF the traps was altnost filled
with bits of sponge that seemed TO be
matted together by some curious jelly
like growth. just what it was neither
the plumber nor the householder was
scientist enough TO explain. but all the
same the pipes We're stopped, and it cost
a pretty penny to get things in order
again.
A good huck-towel, with u comfort
ably wide hem, securely stitched on the
sewing machine so that no liuty edges
are exposed, is quite as agreeable to
many people as a sponge and certainly
has no particles to come off and inter-
fere with the plumbing. In all bath
rooms there should be kept standing a
suitable vessel with Il quantity of disin-
fectant. This should be poured through
all the pipes and allowed to remain long
enough to do its work. Many persons
object to potash. and these will find
coppcras or a strong solution of sal soda
the next best means of keeping up TO an
improved sanitary standard. Hot wa
tel, judiciously used, is u good thing,
but to have this perfectly safe the
plumbing must be good, else the joints,
by long-continued heat, may become
slightly softened. Much OF The solder
that is used melts at a very low temper
ature and San not be trusted to hold
a long-continued stream of water that
is at a boiling point.
The bathroom should have an out
side window and fresh air wherever it
is possible to admit it. In summer q
Slated OF Venetian blind should be pro-
vided so that the window may remain
open, except in case of storm. Few
things are disagreeable than a
stutfy bathroom, u where the odors
of sewer gas and soggy, decaying wood
are evident. To avoid this there must
be no leaks in the pipes oil faucets, and
the joints must be carefully looked after.

Rent day in Paris is a very important
occasion. The landlord is king in a
realm whore exactitude is not only en-
couraged but enforced. An English
nan says that he onc went to see a
landlord about some matter connected
with the house he had hired. The
Frenchman proved to be y very suspi-
cious and inquisitive old gentleman,
who had made his fortune in the candle
trade.
What do you sell?:o he inquired.
The Englishinan acknowledged that
he made his bread by writing COR the
magazines. The landlord shrugged his
shoulders.
II am afraid" said he, that you will
not be exact with your rent on the 10th
of the month"
He evidently had old-fashioned no.
tons Of literature us we'll as the other
arts and preferred that his tenants
should lie, like himself, comfortably in
trade. So in order to vindicate his vo-
cation the Englishman went to call up
on him in person on the 14th, rent in
hand.

old merchant. 81 knew you wouldn't
be exact at the day and the hour fixed.

A Cat Worth Having.

POST EXpreSS)
One of the greatest successes in the
history of this country is that achieved
by Boston's unique %five-cent magazine,
The Black Cat. In seven months it has
reached a sale of one quarter of a million
copies per issue. The chief reason for
this is that each number contains half a
dozen of the most original and fascinat-
ing stories that brains and genius can
produce and money can buy.
The Philadelphia Call aptly says: It's
phenomenal success has already earned
for it the title, THE Marvel of the Mag
azine World" and it would certainly be
impossible to find in a single number Of
any other publication such captivating
tales as are published monthly in The
Black Cat. And the Boston Post pro-
nounces 1t the most fascinating five
cents worth on earth.
This most fascinating of all the mod
ern periodicals is issued by The Story

The Rough riders OF the world.

The Rough Riders of the World.
Just as every boy ut some early stage
of his life wants TO be 4 drum-major or
a horse-car driver, SO, when he gets a
little older and reads some Of fine sto-
ries of adventure about Western plains,
he longs to become q bowboy. He reads
that the cowboy originally was merely
q pony rider, who had charge of q GER
tain number of cattle belonging to some
one of the great ranches OF the West;
that at certain times of the year large
herds of these cattle numbering up
wards of q thousand, were given in
charge of dozen cowboys and driven
hundreds of miles across the country to
the markets at San Francisco or in the
East. This drive of from three to six
months involved such an extraordinary
amount of endurance, skill, and cour-
age, that only the most daring of The
cowboys were able to bring their expe-
ditions safely to an end, and many of
them lever lived to tell why they had
failed. As long as the weather was fine
and the sun shone it was n comparative
ly simple matter to drive a thousand
beasts across the plains; but if, as often
happened, a thunderstorm suddenly
arose at night, or a band of Indians al,-
peared, at the first flash of lightning,
at the first whoop OF the red man, thu
whole thousand bullocks would start at
the top of their speed and rush off over
the prairie in stampede.
Then the cowboy must wake up, catch
his horse, mount him. dodge the Indian
arrows in the dark, and ride after the
herd. in turn catching and passing
them, before he could pretend to have
any influence over the frightened beasts.
In the darkness it was a reckless ride,
and the chances were many that the
horse might step into any one of the
thousand prairie-dog holes or other de-
pressions, throw his rider, and proba-
bly, kill him. If he happened to pass
the herd and then fell in front of the
terrified bullocks, the cowboy was as
good as dead. But, if on the other
hand, the herd were not followed until
daylight, they would be scattered to the
four points OF the compass, and never
completely collected again. This was
a hard school, but it developed such an
extraordinary set Of men, that in a
short time the cowboy became a char
actor of the West. and stood rs the type
of daring, bravery, and reckless cour-
age.-Hdrpe1's Young People.

A Mistaken idea or Lenyosy.

New York u
DIR. George H. Fox. the skin specialist,
who was commissioned by the board of
health to decide whether Long Tong
had leprosy or not, has decided that his
is genuine leprosy. and the Chinaman
has been removed to North Brother
island.
II know that for the last twenty
years DR.. Fox said yesterday, there
always have been Il small number of
cases of genuine leprosy here in New
YORK. But ] can say positively h
during all this time there never has
been a single case Of Infection from one
of these patients. The popular impress
sion about leprcsy and its contagious
features Is Very erroneous. Leprosy is
40 more dangerous than consumption.
PERSONS in a street car are very much
more likely to contract tuberculosis
from the e&pectoratien of a consump-
tive than to get leprosy from the pres
ence of a leper. Leprosy is, of course,
Contagious. and probably it can be con-
tracted in accidental ways as other dis
eases of h blood are; but the terror of
a leper is something that is not founded
on TACT. Ten years ago a man in q very
stage of leprosy was treated
here at II of the hospitals, and he re-
covered, proving that leprosy can be
cured. There are other cases just as
conclusive, but that man was carefully
treated in the hospital. and he received
all the comforts of life, whereas, if he
had been locked up in a Iazaretto and
his food handed through a hole to him.
probably he would have died. The great
difficulty in curing leprosy is that as
soon as a person learns he has 1T he is
made to believe all hope is gone. He is
treated as a doomed man and made to
believe that he is an object to be
Stunned by everybody. Naturally
enough, it is difficult for a person to re-
cover under such circumstances.
IN Europe the leprosy patients are
treated in the hospitals along with the
rest of the patients, Inc they are not
isolated o made to feel that nobody
may go near them. The Chinaman.
Long Tong, was sent by the board of
health to North Brother island, prob
ably out of respect of The popular preiu-
dice against lepers; out doctors and
nurses live for years in the leper COM
munitieS Inc never contract the disease.
This Chinalnan was a striking example
of another popular error about lepers.
They are supposed to be loathsome OBJ
jects. horrible and repugnant, yet. as a
matter of fact, but for one or two marks
on his face, Long Tong was as healthy
a looking Chinaman as l eve saw"
