An Ideal Stained Floor.
BY KENTUC KIENNE.

1t is generally regarded by
most of housekeepers as very un
health to have carpets in the
sleeping rooms; in fact hard wood
floors are preferable, but it isn't
everyone that can afford those.
So the next best is the stained
and oiled floor. 1t is very mex
pensiye and the work can be done
by the housewife herself. Having
used one successfully for some
years | will tell you the method.
First, the floor which is to be
stained must be thoroughly clean
so that the stain will adhere
firmly instead of peeling off and
showing the stain under a clouded
uneven surface. The best for
this purpose is to dissolve table
spoonful of pearline in a pail full
of hot water, as this removes all
grease spots and leaves no traces
of I've to injure the stain, as is
sometimes the case with strong
soap suds or I've water. Another
good paste for the cracks between
boards can be made at home. One
pound of flour and one tablespoon
full of alum to three quarts of
water. Mix the flour with enough
water to make it smooth. then
pour IN the remainder of the
water which has been brought to
boil on the stove. Stir until
well boiled, then put in bits of
newspaper which has been cut up
and ready, and stir until this
paste is the consistency of putty;
then, while hot, take a knife and
crowd in the cracks until perfectly
smooth, and when dry, mix yoHr
stain. A tablespoonful of burnt
lumber to a pint of linseed oil.
Mix we'll, and apply with a paint
brush. A second coat of oil after
a day or two is better. but"one
coat does in most cases. 1t
should be wiped mp every day
(that is, the dirt), with a damp
cloth. Wash once a week.
Home for the Aged Flourishing
The eighth annual report of the
Home for the Aged of his city

Ellen Fowler and Mr.. Thomas
Maugbt. Seven persons have been

WORK ON WARSHIPS.
Report Which shows the PrOyreas
Made In Building Up the
United States Navy.

Admiral Hichborn's latest report or
the progress of the work of building
up the navy shows that of the battle
ships under construction, the kear-
sarge and the Kentucky, at Newport
News, are advanced toward completion
90 per cent. and 9S per cent, respective
ly. The Illinois, at the same place,
stands at rs per cent, and the Missouri
has Just been started. The Alabama,
at Cramps, is set down at SO per cent;
the Maine, at the same place, at 22 per
cent. and the Wisconsin and the Ohio,
at the Union iron works, at So per cent.
and Is per CEN. respectively.
The Albany is the only sheathed pro-
tected cruiser upon which any work
has been done. She is practically
finished, standing at 90 per cent. Work
has not yet begun on the Denver, Des
Moines, ChattaLoog Galveston, Ia
coma and Cleveland.
Of the four monitors the Kansas, at
Newport News, is 10 per cent. com
pleted; Connecticut, at Bath, Al per
cent; Florida, at Nixons, 25 per cent,
and Wyoming, at Union iron works, 43
per cent. All of the 16 torpedo boat de-
stroyers are at last under construc-
ton, the work accomplished ranging
from So per cent. up on the Lawrence,
building by the Fore River Engine
company, down to nine per cent. on
the three boats in the yards of the
Maryland Steel company.
The IS torpedo boats ale also now on
the stocks or afloat, the state of the
work ranging from 90 per cent in the
case of the GCldsborough, at Wolff &

and women. The second and fourth
floors are given up TO the various states
Of the union, where visitors may rest
and register their names il they de-
sire, while the third floor is reserved
for the Offices Of the American com
mission.
There is probably no more beautiful
entrance on the exposition grounds
than that to the United States govern
ment building from the river front.
1t is under large ptrtico, which
spans the esplannde, and under this
every visitor who walks to the other
national buildings is obliged to pass.
In the center arch of this portico. fac
ing the River Seine, is French S statue
of Washington, while bust of Presi-
dent Mckinley occupies niche over
the door. In front OF the building. on
the river bank, there is n boat land
ing, highly ornamented as classic
barge. All the boats OF the American
line which connect with the Amcri-
can trolley system at Nincennes make
landing at this pier.
The style of the exterior Of the build
Ing is classic, and while different in
design from any of the buildings at
the thi,Ago fair, yet the scheme there
prevalent has been retained and will
be in marked contrast to the present
French buildings, which are not so
Architectural in treatment.
The interior decorations have been
the subject OF particular consideration
by Commissioner General Peek. The
national eagle, with outstrctched
wings, crowns ifs top, and over all the
American flag has been unfurled TO fly
until the eXposit ton shall finally close
it's doors
But to the American visitor many
attractions have been provided other
than the building itself. Within lis
walls the visitor from ihe states will
find his American newspapers, Amer.

A FORTUNE IN ORANGES.
A San Francisco Clergyman Who
Owns Beautiful ana Valuable
Groves.

Rev. Robert Mackenzie, d. D., pastor
of the first Presbyterian church in this
CITY and professor in the seminary at
San Anselmo, while attending to the
arduous duties of his ecclesiastical
charge, has found time to make a for
tune. He is a man of great wealth,
saws the San Francisco Bulletin, not
inherited, but the result of his own
foresight and wise investments.
About five miles from the beautiful
town of Riverside, in the choicest part
of region where land is marketable
at prices ranging from ST 900 to 81 800
per acre, DR.. Mackenzie owns 80 acres.
all in bearing oranges. The land is
covered with trees in full bearing and
is worth in its present condition about
$3.50, 900. The income must be very
large, for orange groves pay large
profit on the capital invested.
DR.. Mackenzie started the orchard in
a small way a number of years ago. He
had few acres, which were carefully
planted. He tended his place with
great zeal, and it is said that Mrs.
Mackenzie herself went over the first
few crops and sorted and boxed them,
a labor she would not trust to less
careful hands than her own. This
prudence gave the crop superior quail
ity and reputation. With his annual
profits DR.. Mackenzie extended his
acreage until he became owner of the
present large and extremely valuable
groves.
OF course he has made a fortune out
of his oranges. He has taken care of
est clergyman in California.

be proud. not so much because Of the

will also he an attractive one for peo-
pie from all lands, for our American
machinery is to-day invading every
portion of the globe where machinery
is used.
Among the novel exhibits prepared
by the government is that OF the
weather bureau. In this is given "a
thorough demonstration of the Amer
lean method Of determining the wealth

tically everything Of interest connect
ed with American agricultural systems
and American agricultural products.
Irrigation methods in the western
states are shown. American grains
and American meats are displayed in
interesting and inviting ways, and the

Among other American buildings at
the Paris exposition none will be more
prominent or more attractive to the
visitors from all lands than that de-
voted to the publishers of this country
and their interests. Just as the Amer
lean newspaper is the wonder OF the
civilized world, so will the methods by
which the newspaper, whether it be a
large or small one, be of interest to
the peoples Of all lands. 1t is in q
good location, being situated immedi-
ately adjoining the main exhibit palace
In the Esplanade des Inyalides, the
palace in which are exhibited the man
ufactured products of the world, and
which will be the central point of in
terest to the majority of exposition
visitors.
Inside the building there is shown
every modern device known to the
American printing trades. There are
typesetting machines of all the vari-
GUS kinds; there Is a well-equipped
commercial printing office, supplied
with all the latest and best of the
American type designs and the bert
of American commercial presses; elec-
trotyping and stereotyping appliances
In operation; bookbinding plant, and
the wonderfully made and interesting
multiple newspaper presses turning

HE DENIES IT.

A dispatch to the Herald Thurs
day evening stated that the Duluth,
Missabe & Northern railroad was
surveying a line that was to run
from Biwabik to Mesaba, striking
the Stevens mine, and then on to
Ely. w. ]. Olcott, vice-president of
the Missabe road, said this morning
that this statement is overwrought,
and that it deals with matters not
contemplated by the road.
"Having a surveying party not
occupied for some time, we had
them put at the work of surveying
branch to the Stevens mine, with
the expectation that one day the
road should reach that property
and get it's ore. This is in the fu.
ture, however, and the remainder of
the line spun by The Herlad's in
formant is wholly unwarranted."-

blowers Tuesday night, who sue

made a good haul, getting bunch

work bore resemblance to that at
tempted at the Virginia Cash Gro
Gerry in this city some weeks ago. A
hole was drilled in the top of the
safe and the door blown off with
nitro oglyCerine. No clue to the per-
petratOrs is known.
