Poison in the Cracks.

Walter ScAumann, consul at MainZ,
in a report to the State Department,
calls attention to the fact that for
some time past certain kinds of silver
mounted glass and porcelain wares.
such as cups, glasses, jars, vases, etc,
have been placed upon the market. The
silver on these articles is applied by
means of a galyanoplastic process, in
baths which contain very large quaint
ties of potassium cyanide. AS glazed
wares have innumerable hairlike
cracks, this deadly poison enters these
cracks, and the articles, beautiful to
look at, become a severe menace to the
health of anybody using or handling
them, especially as it is impossible in
the course Of manufacture to remove
this poisonous residuum.
Only short time ago a very serious
case of poisoning resulted from the use
of such ware. Continuing, the consul
says:
Il have spoken with a member of the
firm of Martin Mayer, the largest man
ufacturers and exporters of jewelry in
this consular district in order to ascer-
tain the accuracy of the foregoing as
sertions. l was informed that the
st2tsreeGts We're perfectly true and the
danger lurking in these articles was
not in the least exaggerated. My in
forInant said that his firm refuses to
manufacture these wares on account of
the danger to the workmen, as well as
to any one using the goods.
Il am told that the goods are chiefly
exported to the United States from
Frankfort, Berlin and Stuttgart

a brilliant southern Reantx.

upon going to Europe after her di-
vorce from Jerome Bonaparte, Madame
Bonaparte was extremely delighted
with the attentions which were bestow
ed upon her in England, and Louis
XVIII, when she visited Paris, is said
to have expressed a desire to have her
presented at court" writes William
Perrine of the marriage of Betsy Pat
terson, of Baltimore, to a brother Of
Napoleon l., In the Ladies' Home Jour-
nal. "She declined by saying that as
she had received a pension from the
now exlled Emperor she could not ap-
pear at the court of his successor. To
Prince Gortschakoff is attributed the
remark that had she been near the
former throne the allies would have had
more difficulty in overthrowing Ma
poleon.' Indeed, many years afterward,
Eugene Didier suggested the thought
that it would have been a suitable
match if the Emperor himself had had
the fortune to have married Miss Pee
terson, for she might have exercised
over him an influence which Josephine
was too timid and Louise too silly to
attempt"

MERRIAM TELLS CE-
CENSUS BUREAU WORK,


In speaking of the work of the census
bureau Director Merriam said: 1T has
been the custom heretofore TO make a
rough count. using the names on the
schedule as a basis, but in this decade
It was determined to avoid the errors
likely to arise from a preliminary count,
and also the necessary expenses and de-
lay incident TO such a proceeding. The
plan was adopted of verifying the count
at once by the use of the electrical tabu-
lating machines

Of the population of the States enables
the census Office to submit the figures to
Congress as soon as it cenvenes in De-

Fixed His Fishing Suit.

Ii there is any one thing the average
man likes it is fishing suit that shows
he is a true sportsman. That doesn't
mean a suit that has been bought to
serve such a purpose, since new suit
or regulation sporting suit names him
right away an amateur, but it does
mean a suit that has outworn its days
of general usefulness and has reached
a fitting stage of shabbiness and dis
tinction. A man who is away for the
Maine woods in a few days laid such
desirable fishing suit out to pack. He
had been saving it carefully for that
very purpose Meanwhile he left or
ders that a certain suit of clothes
should be sent to the tailor's to be
cleaned and pressed. HE said gray
suit" soliloquized the maid who I'M
dertook TO carry out the order. But
this blue suit looks so much worse, he
must have meant blue when he said
gray" The blue suit was therefore
bundled up and hurried away. That
old fishing suit came back, sponged,
secured and pressed into correct little
creases. The 1inal blow came in re-
mark of the tailor's. "I'l have to
charge more than ordinary for that
suit. 1t was in very bad shape" he
said.--New York Evening Sun.

A ZEALAND .Indce.

Ia a case before Paris court, in
which a popular actress has had to APP
pear as witness. the judge seems to
have shown considerable diffidence
about asking the lady, as he was in
duty bound to do, what was her age.
Evidently he considered that such
question. put to such a witness, would
be a direct Indictment to perjury
The way in which he got out of the
difficulty was ingenious, although de-
cidedly irregular. He asked her her
age before she had been sworn.
How old are you, madam he said.
After a little hesitation the lady
owned TO being % years of age.
And now that you have told the
court your age" continued the gallant
Judge, won swear to tell the truth,
the whole truth. and nothing but the
truth. London King.

At a meeting of the ministers held Fri

Gen. Tung Fuh Slang and the governor
of Shansi were also included, bringing
the number to be punished for aiding the
Boxers TO eleven.
A correspondent asserts that the list
comprises most of the highest officials
who were the leading spirits in the mas
sacres and richly deserve death. There
are many other guilty officers, but none
ferocious and influential. The execution
of these eleven will do substantial justice
and will remove the worst obstacle to a
satisfactory treaty and permanent peace
These men would prove a constant men
ace to future good government and AMIGA

That About the Figure on Which the
House Will Be Made Up.


Bitter partisan and sectional debates
may be expected in Congress during the
coming session over the bill to reappor-
ton Representatives among the States in
accordance with the twelfth census. The
basis on which the last reapportionment
was made was one Representative to
each 173. 901 persons or major fraction of
that number shown by the census of 1890,
and the present membership of the House
is 36S. 1t is not desired to increase the
representation greatly, and it is the gen.
eral opinion among politicians who have
considered the subject that the basis for
the new apportionment will be at least
100000.
1t is NOT the determination of the basis
of an apportionment, however, that win
excite the most acrimonious debate. 1t
is tn proposition which the Republican
leaders have under consideration of re-
ducing the representation of those South
ern States that have adopted constitu-
tional amendments DISTINGUISHING the ne
groes. They find their warrant for this
in the 14th amendment to the constitution
of the United States. As soon as the
count of the population by States has
been completed at the census office the
works of compiling the statistics of Hit
eracy will be taken up, so that if Con-
gress determines to go into the question
