A circular letter has been sent to the
boards of county commissioners
throughout Colorado by the ways and
means committee of the Colorado COM
mission of the Transmississlppi and
International Exposition. asking the
boards to appropriate stipulated sum
to defray the expenses of state exhibit
at Omaha next year. This appeal Is
made because the state legislature
failed to make an appropriation, and
because the ways and means commit
teee realized that it was impossible to
raise the necessary funds, about $780,
00O by public subscription.

whether the sentiment in favor of sill
Yer in Ohio, Illinois. Indiana and bor-
derlng states was growing stronger or
weaker II can assure you that the
sentiment In favor of silver Is not on
ly stronger than it was in 1896. but 1t
is very much stronger. There is no
question whatever about this, and II Is
steadily growing. l viii predict that

The Energy OF a Cyclone.

The primary cause Of the low baro-
metric pressure which marks the storm
center and establishes the cyclone is ex.
pansion of the air through excess of
temperature. The heated air, rising in
to cold upper regions, has o portion of
its vapor condensed into clouds, and
now new dynamic factor is added, for
each particle Of vapor, in condensing,
gives up its modicum of latent heat
Each pound of vapor thus liberates, &C.
cording to Professor Tyndall's estimate,
enough heat to melt five pounds of cast
iron, so the amount given out where
large masses of cloud are forming must
enormously add to the convection cur
rents of the air, and hence to the storm
developing power of the forming cy-
clone. 1t is doubted whether storm
could attain, much less continue, the
terrific force - that most dreaded Of
winds of temperate zones, the tornado,
without the aid of those great masses Of
condensing vapor which always accom-.
pany it in the form Of stormclouds. -

How They Wash.

The hardest worked washerwomen
in the world are the Koreans. They
have to wash about dozen dresses for
their husbands, and inasmuch as every
man wears pantaloons or drawers SO
baggy that they come up to his neck
like those of clown they have plenty
to do. The washing is usually done in
cold water and often in running
streams. The clothes are pounded with
paddles until they shine like a shirt
front fresh from a Chinese laundry.
The japanese rip their garments
apart for every washing, and they iron
their clothes by spreading them on a
fiat board and leaning this up against
the house to dry. The sun takes the
wrinkles out of the clothes, and some
Of them have quite luster. The jap
anese woman does her washing out of
doors. Her washtub is not more than
six inches high and is about as big
around as the average dishpan. She
gets the dirt out of the clothes by rub
hing them between her hands. She
sometimes uses Japanese soap, which
is full Of grease, and works away with
her bare feet. The Chinese girls do
their washing in much the same way.
The washing in Egypt is usually done
by the men. The Egyptian washerman
stands naked On the banks of the Nile
and slaps the wet clothes, with noise
like the shot of pistol, on the smooth
stones at the edge of the running water,
and such fellah women as wash pound
the dirt out OF their clothes in the same
way.
Frenchwomen pound the dirt out with
paddles, often slamming the clothes up
on stones, as the Egyptians do.-Ex-
change.

Some Queer Experiences In the Public

Some Queer Experiences In the Public
Dispensaries Of New York.
The least hope Of any change in this
charity TO all policy is with those dis
pensaries that arc beautifully endowed.
The leading institution of this class in
New York city is located on the west
side, and, in view of its defiant abuse
Of all kinds of medical charity, has
earned for itself the unenviable sobri-
quet of the diamond dispensary. 1t
has such high reputation for the num-
Der and pecuniary ability of its patients
that it would appear to be rather
credit than disgrace TO receive its out
rageously misdirected charity. Such at
least is the inevitable conclusion that
may be based upon the large average of
we'll to do people who claim daily the
benefits of free medical treatment so
lavishly and unfortunately furnished
to all who apply. Many of these visitors
are from out of town districts and will
pay several dollars for car fare, will ask
for written diagnosis of their disease
and an extra prescription, and will then
complain if they are kept waiting be-
yond the time for their return train.
The examining doctor is content to ride
to the dispensary in horse car; the pa
tent comes and returns in a cab 1t is
no longer joke to refer to the display
of diamonds or the number of women
clad in sealskins in the patients wait

fences will not be required for checking
bicycles and distributing carriage num-
beers in the order of the different ar
rivals. In this connection. the follow
ing description by an eyewitness in the
waiting room of this dispensary may be
interesting:
1.-THE reception room held about 200
at time. Nobody was turned away.
Fully 80 per cent of the applicants were
well dressed, and 10 per cent of them
were finely dressed. Three women wore
fur coats that had not been handed
down from somebody else. There was
an attractive display Of fine millinery,
and the men, more than half of them,
bore no evidences Of poverty. But all
obtained free treatment supposed to be
given to paupers-'poo persons.
Such instances as the following carry
with them their own moral:
During the examination of a dis
pensary patient roll of bills dropped
from her pocket. The doctor picked it
up and remarked, Madam, this is a
free dispensary, and as you are able to
pay fee for medical advice I must de-
cline to treat you here. We'll, replied
the woman, that money is for some
thing else. You are paid by the city
and must prescribe for me. On being
assured that the doctor received no sal
airy from any source, the patient became
indignant and protested that she was
entitled to attention equally with the
lady who had preceded her and from
whom she had rented house the week
before. "-Dr George F. Shrady in

St. Louis Globe-Democrat: At
the beginning of a new year the
field belongs to the optonlist.
Whatever clouds MAY have dark
ened the horizon in the year Just
ended always appear to be on the
point of breaking when it's sue
cessor comes in. 1t is the season
when the bright side of thugs is
the only side which presents it
self. This is particularly true in
the world of business, and the
present moment is time when
the hopeful mood is apt to assert
itself with especial force. Tie
year just ended was one of men,
orably deep financial depression.
Business failures, according to
Dun's review, numbered about
14,S00 for the twelve months
which is the largest total ever
recorded in year except in 1893,
and the liabilities involved were
correspondingly large.
Reasoning from Inference e
alone, 1897 would naturally be
expected to show All Improvement
on this exhibit, for after the de-
cline in business to the low level
at which it has rested for the
past three and a half years, it
