The Famous Paris Carrot.

There are few persons interested in
things literary who being in Paris with.
in the last 10 or Is years can have fail
ed to hear of the garrett of M. de Con
court. M. de Goncourt himself would
perhaps have preferred people to say the
garrett of "the brothers Goncourt," al.
though, as is we'll known, the institu.
ton was originated and flourished only
after the death of the younger brother.
The "garret" specifically was a charm
ing room, half hall, half library, on the
third floor of the little Louis XVI hotel
at Auteuil which NJ. Edmond de Con
court occupied during the whole latter
part of his life; generically it was the
meeting together of kindred spirits, of
disciples and admirers and friends OF
the old maitre, the germ Of the academy
which it was Edmond de Goncourt' s
dream to establish in opposition to the
academy of the 40 immortals, and the
nursery, as it were, where talents were
grown to ripeness for the honor of ad.
mission. to that same especial academy.

Animal COlOnists,

During the last few years the demand
for pedigree English cattle for Argen-
tina has been enormous. Shorthorns,
Herefords and Devons have been i'm
ported weekly, and a crossbred English
stock now fills the "corrals" Of the
great beef and bovril companies of the
Rio de la Plata. In North America this
Anglicizing process has spread to all the
states of the Union. Half bred Herefords
and Shorthorns are taking the place Of
the common cattle of the States ON near
ly all the ranches of the beef producing
districts, and the colonizing capacity of
different English breeds is recommend
ing them for special districts. Thus the
Devon bulls are purchased for ranches
where the search for pasture and water
needs special activity and endurance,
and red "polled" or hornless Suffolks
are used where cattle are being bred for
transit by rail or ship because the alb
sence of horns is then convenient. Even
tropical Brazil follows the fashion, and
English Jersey cows are seen demurely
walking through the forest paths by the
coffee plantations and English terriers
and pug dogs sit Oh the laps of Brazilian
ladies'
Whether the Jersey cattle will multi
ply on the planters estates time will
show, but the spread of our colonizing
animals, which are now invading stimuli.
taneously the plains of Patagonia and
the north Canadian territory, does not
limit it's progress to the direction of the
poles. In India the English horse be-
comes colonist by second intention, in
the form of the "waler, sounder and
stronger animal than the majority Of
British hackneys. His value, as COM
pared with the native breeds of Asia, is
still undetermined, but we must accept
his presence and survival as a fact

Speculation Stopped.

Governor Stephens of Missouri the

negro who mad been condemned to
death for murder to imprisonment for
so years. When she heard of it, the ne,
gro's mother was so happy that she be-
gan to smoke corncob pipe. Some one
having suggested to her that after all
80 years imprisonment was a pretty
heavy punishment, she exclaimed:

Soap.

The first distinct mention of soap
now extant is by Pliny, who speaks CT
it as an invention of the Gauls; but be
that as it may, the use of soap for wash
ing purposes is of great antiquity. In the
ruins of Pompeii a complete soap man.
ufactory was found and the utensils
and some soap were in a tolerable state
Of preservation. The Gallo soap of
eighteen centuries ago was prepared
from fat and wood ashes, particularly
the ashes from beech wood, which wood
was very common in France as we'll as
in England. Soap is spoken Of by writ
ers from the second century, but the
Saracens were the first people to bring
it into general use as an external cleans
ing medium. The use of soap is thus
described: when examined chemical
ly, the skin is found to be composed Of
a substance analogous to dried white of
egg; in a word, albumen. Now, albu-
men is soluble in the alkalies, and
when soap is used for washing the skin
the excess of alkali combines with the
oily fluid with which the skin is natu-
rally believed, removes it in the form of
an emulsion, and with portion of the
dirt. Another portion of the alkali soft
ems and dissolves the superficial stratum
of the skin, and when this is rubbed off
the rest of the dirt disappears. So that
every washing of the skin with soap re-
moves the old face of the skin and leaves
new one, and were the process repeat
ed to excess the latter would become
attenuated. "-Philadelphia Ledger.

Sacred Fires of India.

The sacred fires Of India have not all
been extinguished. The most ancient
which still exists was consecrated IL
centuries ago in commemoration of the
voyage made by the Parsees when they
emigrated from Persia to India. The
fire is fed five times every "a hours with
sandal wood and other fragrant materi-
ais, combined with very dry fuel. This
fire. in the village of Oodwada, near
Bulsar, is visited by Parsees in large
numbers during the months allotted to
the presiding genius of fire. Exchange.

NOHICAN'S MISSION.
To Establish Base OF Supplies in
Ladrone Group.

LadrOne Group.
WASHINGTON, June 12.-When the
cruiser Philadelphia goes down to San
Francisco from Mare Island within
two weeks, it will be under orders to
proceed to Honolulu. Once there the
Mohican, which is now due at the
islands, will be detached from that
station and will start for the South
Pacific. The mission of the little ship
will be to plant the American flag on
every remaining possession of Spain.
Nothing has been done by Admiral
Dewey in the matter of reducing the
two fortified towns on the Caroline
islands as yet, and to insure the sub
jections Of both the Ladrone and Caro-
line groups is to be the mission Of the
Mohican The NOhican will carry as
large a force of marines as possible,
and it is not thought she will have any
trouble in reducing any Notifications
encountered. While a force will be
landed at the towns visited no garri-
son will be left, that duty being dele
gated to General Merritt, who will
see to it after his principal work at
Manila is performed.
Meanwhile the Philadelphia will
represent the United States at Homo
lulu. While it is not expected that the
Senate will have passed the annexation
resolution by the time the Philadelphia
| leaves, such may be the case, and the
result will be, in that event, that the
cruiser will carry instructions for rails
ing the flag over the palace. In the
event that Congress shall have ad-
journed without action, and the Presi-
dent shall decide to take possession OF
Hawaii as a military necessity, the
Philadelphia will represent his author
! ity in the new possession.

Mr.. JOHNF.THRUM
Dies Suddenly in San
Francisco on the 9TH.
Had Been a Publisher in That City
Founded a Paper-Brother
Of ThOs. @. Thrum.

John T. Thrum, editor and founder
of Music and Drama" was found
dead at the corner OF Taylor and
Broadway streets yesterday morning
at 4:30 o'clock. Death resulted from
heart disease, a malady that had
troubled him periodically since early
youth.
Mr.. Thrum was about the theatres
Sunday evening and appeared in good
health and spirits. Later in the even
ing he visited the Arlington Hotel and
called upon his sister, Mrs. Lucy Day
ton, of Honolulu, whom he had not
seen before for twelve years. During
their conversation he expressed de-
sire to return to Honolulu, and said
that he intended to go as soon as he
could arrange his business matters.
He left his sister at a late hour, and
the suppositron is that he remained
down town until the cars stopped and
started to walk to his home at 1927
Steiner street.
The decedent was native Of Aus
traIia. He spent several years at Ho-
nOIulu, where he began journalistic
work. In 1873 he came to San Fran
cisco and was engaged on the staff of
the AIta-California. He was also cor
respondent of the Dramatic News and
the Dramatic Times of New York. In
1883 he established Music and Drama
and conducted it successfully until
February, 1897, when he sold it to
Harry Gates. He was, however, con-
nected with the paper up to the time
Of his death. He was So years old.
He leaves a widow and one son,
Horace G.. Thrum, who is now playing
with a theatrical combination in the
East.

During the last fortnight we have
refrained from talking shop for three
reasons:
First-Eyery one felt so wrapped
up in the Boys in Blue" that they
did not care much about furniture or
listening to any lengthy talk on our
part.
Second-The weather having been
such that people would much rather
stay at home and keep as cool as posi-
Die in preference to moving around
IN the sun.
Third-This reason of course is OF
more interest to us than TO our GUS
toners, unless they are directly in
Gerested by having goods in our re-
pair shop. Regardless of the hot
weather we have had as much, and
some days more, than we could handle

ment. So that while you folks have
been entertaining or keeping quiet we
