The Touch Of Holmes.

Holmes, the fiend who was hung in
Philadelphia on the 7th inst, was q
dangerous man TO como in contact
with, when he was around in the
land seeking whom he might devour.
Even after be was arrested aud i'm
prisoned, his contact with men, was
for some unaccountable reason a
source of misfortune. Speaking on
that point, the Philadelphia North
American says:-
It is strange fact that sinister
fate has befall n many of those con-
nected with his case. William A.
Shoemaker, one of his lawyers, at
tempted to foist upon the Court bo-
gus affidavit, and was subjected to
disgrace and finally disbarred for a
period Then Dr. William K. Mat
tern, the Coroner's physician, who
made an autopsy on Pitezel's body,
suddenly dropped dead, recently; ana
lastly, Linford L. B;les, who was
foreman of the jaTy in the trial, was
few weeks after shocked to death by
live wire. Altogether it is safe to
assume that a sigh of relief will go
up from the whole country with the
knowledge tbat Herman Mudgett, or
Henry H. Holmes. man or monster,
has been exterminated - much the
same as plague to humanity would
be stamped out. But the true story
of his strange career will probably
never be known.

Warding off Frosts-

A fog-making and fros. fighting
machine has been invented and used
with success in the orchards about
San Jose, California. Frost is the
orchards most dreaded enemy, and
heretofore when one has been expect
ed ali available help has bean kept
busy maintaining brush fires about
the orchards and vine yards. The
machine is furnace on sled.
Around the sides and on the top of
the furnace is wire netting, into
which are packed straw and other
materials that will hold moisture.
The sled also carries water tank,
and the packing about the furnace is
kept wet. The fire is fed with brush,
aud the smoke distributes from a
number Of chinneys. With the
smoke and steam a fog is produced
which envelopes the orchard, keeping
up the temperature and warding off
frcsis.

About the Size Of it.
From the Public Ledger, Nav S.

From the Puellc Ledger, NAV D.
The compulsory education law
passed by the last Legislature is to
be enforced, and from the stand
point Of a politician, it is a first class
law. It will divert $4,000 from the
City Treasury into the hands of the
assessors, instead of having this
amount of money wasted in building
a school house. The assessors in re-
turn for this, will tell Us how many
children are not attending school,
Superintendent Brooks told us last
January, that there were 10000 chill
dren Of school age not attending
school and 5000 ether children on
half time. but instead of building
school houses for these waits and pro
viding for their education, we have
had law passed to give the assss-
sors $4,000 year and to punish p
rents who do not send their childree
to schools that do not exist. AMI
the assessors will get their pay
whether school keeps or not" for
the law provides for tkeir eompensa-
tion, and if Councils, should refuse or
neglect 10 make en- appropriation,
they can gst their pay by the aid of
the convenient mandamUs.

SUGAR MAKING IN CUBA.
Tho Crude Methods That Were In Use
Twenty Years Ago.

Tho Crude Methods That Were In Csc
Twenty Years Ago.
Twenty years ago, in those times of
slavery and high prices, but little atten-
ton was given to machinery or cngi-
what tonnage of cane they could from
an acre of land.
The cane was brought to the sugar
house, where the laborers slowly put it
on the carrier, passing it to the mill,
where it was rolled or ground between
the rolls of a three roller mill to extract
the juice, getting an extraction Of 55
per cent out of possible So or SS per
cent Of the whole weight in the cane.
The cane was brought to the sugar
house train" which was set of four
or five kettles set in brickworE, having
a strong fire under the smallest or
"strike" kettle. The flames passed un-
der and around all the kettles, the un-
consumed gases escaping through q
chimney. The combustion was so imper-
feet that at night flames could be seen
many feet high, coming from the top of
the chimney.
The largest CT these kettles received
the raw juice, and there it was lined
and SKINNED as the Impurities rose. 1t
was then lajled to the next kettle in
each time being thickened in
density and reduced III bulk by evapora-
ton until it arrived at the "strike"
kettle, where skilled attendant knew
the exact point at which TO stop the fire
and ladle out the mass into the crystal
lizinS pans, in which it was allowed to
cool.
In few days it was firm enough to
be taken out, placed in hogsheads and
TO drain in the storehouses,
losing at least one-siXth III dripping mo-
lasses. The hOgsheads were then repack-
ed and placed on carts and drawn many
miles to the railroad for shipment to
the merchants stores at the seacoast,
where they were again allowed to drain,
were repacked, reweighed and sold, thus
piling up an expense account that made
the profits look slim; but, as sugar was
selling at G high rate, these expenses
could be borne W. Colwell in Cas-

why the regular cutting Of the nails
Oh Friday should be a specific for

things will make any impression on
