FIFTY IN FL ET1YORS.

Chief Wade of the Massachusetts
 State police rises to remark that to SUD-
 pose an elevator is ever absolutely safe Is a delusion. This is an entirely safe
 remark Few things can be relied on in this world except death and taxes, and elevator accidents have been frequent
 enough to justify Chief Wade's asser-
 tien. He has more to say about eleva- tors which may be worth attention. In
 his opinion double ropes are the best of the safeguards. In the constant ascent there is continued process of bending
 and strengthening of the ropes, which
 in time causes specialization, eventu- ally completely destroying the elasticity of the wire, at which stage the ropes may part at any moment and without warning. The only precaution that can be taken in this matter is that the best grade of ropes, and a kind less liable to specialization, be used, and proper care be taken to prevent luot. LCSo lHelii two hoisting ropes for an elevator of any pattern where hoisting ropes are used should be prohibited by law. A safety device to prevent the car of the elevator from falling, in case the rope should give way, is but a mechanical device in any event; although these de- vices are many times commendable for their efficiency when in good repair, they are liable to become deranged and worn out, which may occur at any time If an elevator with single rope should give way at time when the device is so deranged there would be no alterna- tive but for the car to drop to the bot tom: but with two or more hoisting ropes, as they would not all break at the same time, an accident from that source would be very improbable
 Perhaps it can be proved that a man is as safe in an elevator as he is in bed, but if there is any way in which he can be made safer it should be adopted.

THE SENATORIAL C4TCITS.


 The senatorial contest in this State ended yesterday, and in it's ending sev- eral things were illustrated, including the uncertainty of politics, the value of promises and the hollowness of bluff Nothing went as the many prominent men who have been predicting said it would. Hawley was not nominated on the first ballot nor eke on the sixth Fessenden was not nominated at all Ditto Bulkeley. Hawley started out With 9S votes, two less than he needed, there being 19S in the caucus, Fessen- den began with 62, and Bulkeley with 5h Fessenden gained until he reached 76 and Bulkeley's high mark was g.. At the end, on the ninth ballot Hawley had 117, Fessenden 69 and Bulkeley 8. Russell and Simonds were the dark horses, and they were very dark throughout the race. Votes which start ed out for Bulkeley elected Hawley, and in this the seers will see the pay ment of an old debt.
 The result is we think, in accord with the most general sentiment of the people of this State, and it will please many outside the State who have talk en an interest in the contest.

found to be cornmeal. The dealer con- tended that it was necessary to add corn or rice meal to make self-raislng flour. This was denied by the chemist testifying for the prosecution. The court declared that even granting the dealers contention to be true, so large an admixture of cornmeal was not nec- essary, and the defendant was found guilty and fined. In his testimony in this case the chemist said that there is difference of two per cent. in the nu- tritive value of wheat and corn and that rice is twenty per cent. less nutri- tive than corn.
 curious technicality. The prosecuting witness asked dealer for flour. He had what the dealer sold him analysed and it proved to be thirty-fve per cent. cornmeal. Webster's dictionary was quoted as defining flour as 'the edible part of ground corn or grain" An other authority defined four as "the finer portion of ground corn or grain or anything similar" The court decided that the witness asked for flour and got it. If he had asked for wheat flour and the dealer had given him the adul- terated stuff, it would have been diff ferent. An appeal was taken.

THE NEW HARDEN.

Of course it was bound to be said
 that the directors of the Connecticut State prison ought not to have gone out of the State for warden, and it has been said. And of course the directors will say that they selected the best man they knew about and if there had been better man in Connecticut than there was in Minnesota he would have been appointed. A fair and unprejudiced view of the matter will support the directors in their attitude. The State needed the best man that could be found for the place, and it is no crime if he happened to be found in Minneso- ta. The directors had the right and it was also their duty to choose the best man, irrespective of local considera- tions. If they have exercised their right and done their duty judiciously they have done well. The new warden appears to be well qualified by ability and experience for the place into which he has been so promptly and enthusias- tically put. If he is successful the d. rectors and he will have to be forgiven for the Minnesota mark that is on him. If he doesn't happen to be a success from office as gracefully as possible.

The first color of the leather is biscuit yellow, which is terrifying, and before it can be worn in the city it has to be darkened This is done by applying a grayish brown powder, after which the shoe is thoroughly oiled.

It is not confin- ed to any one part of the gown, but appears on the bodice as an outline to the guimpe, and again as a finish at the edge of the waist. It is very pretty, too, upon the pereline, which is much more in favor now than at any previous time for several years.

A correspondent writes from Spring. field, Illinois, to the Inter-O Ocean of Chi cago: The Lincoln monument here, un- der which rest the remains of the mar tyred president, his wife and three sons, is to be torn down. For years the structural condition of the pile of gran ite and bronze has been growing more and more defective. Through the set ting of the foundation the superstruc- ture has been greatly injured. Great cracks appear in the walls, and the massive stones in the base are falling apart. It has been decided that the only thing to be done is take down the entire structure and rebuild it. There will be no change in the design, and the materials now in the monument will be used in the reconstruction.
