EMINENT WOMEN WORKERS.
How Titled Ladies of Great Britain
 Have Helped Native Industries.

How Titled Ladies of Great Britain
 Have Helped Native Industries.
 Many ladies are excellent organizers, writes Lady Violet Greville in the Lon don Daily Chronicles; many of them have a talent for collecting round them the right people and putting them in the right places, while they are also gifted with such acumen and judicious Insight into character as enables them triumphantly to conquer difficulties, The work done by the Scotch and Irish industries alone proves this.
 The Duchess of Sutherland has re- stored comfort and activity to many a village home which for lack of work was perishlng, and by her unwearied energy and example has developed the making of homespuns and tWeeds into a real and hourishing industry. She, in the north of Scotland, Lady Amerdeen In central Scotland and the Duchess of Buccleuch in the south practically sweep the country between them and command an excellent sale for the pro- ducts of their taste and judgment
 The industry so valuable to the poor crofters who weave in the long winter months has steadily progressed from the first initial opening, when the turn over was nineteen hundred pounds, till it is now twenty-four hundred pounds. As was very wisely observed recently at the Leeds exhibition, We don't de- sire an unemployed fund, we wish to keep the poor employed" One great advantage of the materials they sup ply which are dyed with seaweed, which gives lovely tints, unattainable otherwise, Is that they are all good, genuine and durable. As an illustra- ton. there is a story current that two suits of Harris tweed were sold by a worker to couple who wished to be dressed alike on their tandem bicycle, Year after year, when the friend visi- ted them, they were still wearing the suits; at last in the fifth year the friend saw them no longer and thought they must be worn out, when. behold. in came five little children, all clothed alike in the identical tweed, still as good as ever.
 What thess ladies have done in Scot land by reviving the cottage industries has been repeated in Ireland by the Duchess of Abercorn, Lady Aberdeen, Lady Londonderry, Lady Cadogan, Lady Arthur Hill and many others. In Ireland the old art of making beau- tiful lace, which was languishing for lack of encouragement few years ago. is now successfully practised, and fashion in Paris, by some inscrutable process known only to itself, has or dained that this season Irish lace should be the "dernier cri de la mode"

A REMARKABLE CLOCK.

Result of Five Years Work of Black
 Forest Mechanic.
 A clock which is in many respects one of the most notable in the world has been constructed, says the Jewell CTS Circular-W Weekly, after five years of hard labor by August Noll, a skilled mechanic of Villinger, one of the old and picturesque cities of the German Schwarzwald and the former capital of the province of Baar, which came into the possession of Baden in 1S06 The people of this region are diligent and talented, and the making of clocks has been for two hundred years na- tive industry among them.
 Those first made were wooden clocks with a. sort of balance, and were very simple in construction. Gradually the work grew in perfection and the pens dulum took the place of the balance; in still later times came metallic clocks with mainsprings, until now the most elaborate and artistically designed time-pieces of every kind are sent all over the world, into the humble dwell- lings of the middle classes and the palaces of the wealthy
 The astronomical clock finished by August Noll almost surpasses in inge- nuity of construction, variety of me- chanism and number of figures not only the famous clocks of Prague and Goslar, but even the renowned rnaster-

 to leave that city.
 The case, of walnut wood, about fourteen feet high, twelve feet wide and three feet deep. is fashioned in the form of church of the early Renais- sance style, of harmonious design and pleasing to the aesthetic sense. The calendar mechanism, rollers, chimes, striking works, &c., are arranged to
 work for one hundred years. During a whole century the clock will show not only the seconds, minutes, quarter hours and hours, the days, Weeks,
 months and years, but also the nova ble festivals of the Christian year Tho different days and seasons are intro duced by processiors of appropriate figures, skilfully carved, accompanied by music, with bugle solos and watch mems horns, or cock crow and cuckoo calls.
 The center is occupied by an artis- tically decorated and illuminated chap el, whose dodrs open every morning at nine o'clock and brig to view a congre- gation of worhsippers in the Schwartz
 wald costume, who file past the altar amid the strains of choral. Once every hour the figure of Death appears at the lelt idle wing, and figures repre- senting the four ages of man pass by him; at the same time the twelve apos- ties are seen passing before the figure of Christ in an attitude of blessing. At the right of the potral, above, is an idealized representation of the four seasons, and beneath, morning and evening, six Capuchin monks march slowly, to the accompaniment of chimes and the chords of choral, from
 their picturesque hermitage to the church.
 The time is marked on the clock face in the upper part of the central space. not by ordinary hands, but by figures which spring out at the proper moment and two angels strike the chimes on melodious bells.

The last few days have added, if any thing could add, to the desirability of life in New Haven. For instance, why does anybody need to go to London when anybody can have a real London fog, such as we have just emerged from in New Haven? Why does any body need to go to the highlands of Colorado or California when anybody can have such a climate as we who are privileged to live in New Haven dad yer serday? Tn short, why should any body who lives here go anywhere ex- cept for a change, and to thoroughly learn that there is no place like home, when home is New Haven?
 Let us continue to live in New Ha- ven as long and as well as we can, and if we must go to Heaven by and by let us be as cheerful as we can about 1t.

 The expected has happened; the man who writes about This halsbingers of spping" has stepped to the front once more. He lives in Connecticut; and he says that Mrs. Spencer Coe plucked a violet on the south side of her house last week, that silver maple cross the street is in full bud and that Elmer Morgan, who works in the local Post offioe,' has two lilac bushes that are leaffng out.

His head, which was bleeding in many places, and his left hand, of which two fingers were smashed, were then bound up, and when he had recovered consciousness he was, at the instance of a committeeman for public safety, inluced to sign his resig- nation. The affair naturally has pro- voked much indignation in Vienna.

MADE IN BOSTON.

The other day we were glad to notice that good wives and housekeepers might be made in Germany if distin- guished educators in that country could succeed in making the education of women in domestic work as compulsory as the education of men for military work. We now notice with pleasure that our own Boston is already prepar- ing young women to be good wives and housekeepers, though there is nothing compulsory about it. It appears that the Boston Cooking School, incorporat- ed with the college founded by the late John Simmons, which will enable women to earn an independent liveli- hood, has developed into comprehen- sive course in household science and economies. Under household values" says the dean of this very modern school for young women, I've aim to discuss the relative expenditures of every family. The discussions will in clhde the rent, the food supply, the fur nishing, the light, fuel, service, the out lay for wardrobes for social diversion, with an eye to possible illness in the family, increase of it's numbers, and even the misfortune of temporary lapse of income" While great percentage of the women who are taking the four years course in this school, which cov- CTS a vast deal of science as well as household art, are really preparing themselves for institutional work-that is. to be matrons and superintendents of colleges, hospitals, orphanages, re- formatories and the like-a very fiatter- ing proportion of the students are sim ply training themselves for the duties of life that may present themselves, whether as wives and mothers or teach CTS and guardians, as fate may decree or their destiny unfold.
 So far, so good. Wives or housekecp- CTS made in Boston ought to be all right.

A Double Life.

My neighbor leads a double life- fashion much in vogue A dramatic rascal he Is, sure, And literary rogue. For when my neighbor is at home His choice of books or play Is not at all the same as when My neighbor goes away. When he is home he buys the books Of literary style Ihat analyze the human soul, And woe and gloom up-pile. He goes in for dissection keen, ., With problems of the time, The novels on .heredity.
 And on the Modern Crime. But when my neighbor goes away, The books he reads-oh, my! Adventures, yellow tales and jokes As low as breakfast pie. TO latest books he says, "Go 'wayt Or I'll do something rash; At home l have to read that rot Now give me good old trash" My enighbor, when he is at home, And feels the drama draw, Will only go to Ibsen plays,
 Or rave OCT Bernard Shaw. He'll see none but a problem play, A work that makes one think And turns in seorn from mere mirtE
 shows,
 Philosophy to drink. But when my neighbor goes abroad, No Ibsen does he see He fights in throngs that rush to buy Goods seats for "Fiddle-Dee. He takes revenge for Shaw ct al In song and dance and buzz; And most of us, l think somehow, Do as my neighbor does.

4 MISSOURI LAW.

Missouri has a law which seems to have some sense in it, and cynic might perhaps say that that is the req son why 1t hasn't been used. But be this as it may, 1t is now invoked, and the case is interesting. This law pro- vides for the Imprisonment of 8 person who is a notorious criminal but against whom no specific charge can be brought. It assumes that an evil rep utauon growing out of association with criminals and implying participation in certain crimes constitutes prima facie evidence of the criminal character, and inferentially justifes society in impris- oning such person on general principles. A man named Spalding is the one to whom this law is to be applied, and he appears to be a proper subject for its application. He has prison record, al- though it does not show, claim the po- lice, anything like the full number of bis crimes. He himself confesses that he can never reform and that impulses to steal dominate all good influences.
 We suppose some sentimentalists would think 1t better to wait until spalding stole again or murdered some- body before depriving him of his lib erty.' There are others who think that one who is hopelessly criminal is in his right place in prison, earning his living and not likely to be able to dam 1 age honest people.

It isn't as quiet everywhere in the world as it is in New Haven. Some idea of the political spirit prevailing in some parts of Hungary may be gamed from the details of the treatment re- gently accorded to M. Kovacs, who re- gently had the misfortune to be ap- pointed by the King high sheriff of Haiduck county, of which Debrecsin is the chief city. This has always been a Magyar stronghold. Previous to the arrival of M. Kovaes the citizens issued a proclamation of boycott and eXcom- munication against him. They had a hearse at the railroad station for his conveyance and a bodyguard armed with rotten eggs. Forewarned, he re- fused 10 leave the train, but he was pulled out, pelted, thrown down and trampled on. He was then, according to a local paper lifted up so that he could be stoned and beaten the more effectively. He was rapidly dragged to the hearse outside, thrown upon it, and, as it started, the crowd sang the Kos
 suth Hymn. In this way he was con- veyed through the streets to the chief square, where he fell from the hearse and tried to take refuge in a coffee house. The crowd, however. headed him off and drove him across the street, where he fell unconscious under the archway of the savings bank. Two

The London Standard says that the painting "Venus and the Mirror" by Velasquez, which is valued at from $2OO.OOO to $25O,OOO, has been secured by Great Britain for the National Gallery, an anonymous individual having guar aTYteed the purchase money. The op- ton given by the owners to the govern ment expired some days ago. More than one foreign offer has been receiv- ed exceeding the stipulated price. The French government offered $25, 600 above the price fixed by the owners. The sub scriptions in Great Britain for the pur- chase of the painting have not reached half the price asked, but the lists will be kept open to relieve the guarantor of as much of the cost as possible. It may be stated that all connoisseurs have not been anxious that the paint ing should be added to the British col lection. Among those objecting to it's purchase Is Lord Ronald Cover, trus- tee of the National Portrait Gallery. He admits, however, that it is a fine. study in flesh, but declares that it is wholly lacking in beauty and refine ment.

Immediately after the ceremony. his
misery began. It was, caused by the
descent Tuesday night, on the home Of
Proulx, who lives with her parents on
a farm in the town of Tildening, Of 100
men and women bent on giving a chart

The house was stormed when refresh
ments were refused, windows were
broken, lace curtains torn down and
trampled upon and even the bridal
| chamber invaded. Here the raiders
| seized the nuptial bed, took it to pieces
the mattress and bedclothing were not
! spared.
Nor was this the end. The mob then
broke into the milkhouse on the farm
in search of liquor and finding none
turned the milk into the creek.
Hug and Kiss the Bridegroom.
Finally the bridegroom, who had been
in hiding, made his appearance. The
mob demanded $40 to dispense. Bellier
offered 81, but this offer was spurned
with loud outlaws.
Thereupon he was seized by the wo-
men in the party and Rugged and kissed
until he shrieked for mercy. He offered
the twenty women who had surrounded
/ him SO if they would give him his free
dom and they said they would, provid-
ing he gave the men 81 MORE. '-.=,~s-
