Journal of Commerce: Reports from Aguascalientes say that the two new furnaces of the great smell fer of the American Smelling and Refining Company will soon be blown in. About 200 cars loads of ore arrive at the smeltcr daily. This is the great copper smelting plant of Mexico, copper matte hav- ing almost superseded lead smelt ing there. Copper ores are shipped to that plant from as far away as Sonora, the ores being freighted in bond through the United States to El Paso.
 Jonrnal of Commerce: IL is stat ca on good authority that the pro- position for changing the tramway in Chihuahua from mule to electric power is decided on. and that work will be begun immediately. :. l.. Pierce, representing Northern capi- tai, is obtaining control of the road, which has about six miles of track in the city, and also includes the mineral road fifteen miles long, running to the mines at Santa Eulalia, which moves twenty four thousand tons of mineral monthly.

FRENCH POLITENESS.

During one summer which | spent

hotel at Saint Germain estimated that

each week saying good morning and
good evening TO the men, women, lit
tie children and dogs about me. If you
encounter the same person twenty five
times in the same day, you must smile
rapturously, pause, at least shake
hands if you do not kiss, tremendously
inquire how he or she is going" and
tremendously bid him or her "au re-
voir' at parting. Not only every man
and woman expects this. but all the
little children toddle up to you, shake
hands and exact the same amount of
ceremony. Then every well regulated
French family has dog that more
than likely occupies 4 chair and eats
off plate beside you at the table, so
that il il considered churlish if you do
not also stop and tell the dog bon
jour" and "au revoir" IA dozen times a
day. pausing to take the paw which he
is prettily taught TO extend to you.
When the waSherwOman brings home
your linen, there are at least five min
utes spent in tremendously greeting
and parting from her. In the operation
of receiving and paying for linen you
exchange "mercis' and ''pardons' not
fewer than ten times. Any other serv-
ing person or tradeSman who comes to
do business with you throughout the
day you similarly receive with bon
jour, monsieur" and "au reyoir mon
sieur." and you thank him and beg his
pardon as often as you can possibly
get the words into the length of time
he has to stay.-Harper's Bazaar.

Humlliating a Bull.

A magnificent red bull owned by an
English farmer had an unpleasant no

board had therefore been bound firmly
across his forehead, and on this as an
added insult to the monarch OF the
herd was painted, Dangerous" When
the beast held his muZzle to the sky he

a writer, II came on n stretch of level

Intellectual bull. Up went the beasts

half in laughter"
