Tories OF THE DAY.
Minnesota has just passed a law
taking away from judges the option of
imposing the death sentence in cases
of murder in the first degree and mak¬
ing capita! punishment mandatory.
Minnesota is the second State that has
recently restored the death penalty.
An engagement was entered into by
two Philadelphia swells to pool their
issues and give a theatre party. It was
agreed that one should get the seats
and provide for taking the party to
and from the theatre, and the other
was to give the supper. A coin was
tossed, and the winner selected the
theatre tickets as his share. Thirty
young people were invited, and one of
last season’s brides secured to matron
ize them. The party, to their amaze¬
ment, were taken to the Arch-strees
Opera House, where a company it
singing light operas, the price of ad¬
mission being a dime, and reserved
orchestra chairs ten cents extra. The
man who had ordered the supper was
furious at first, but the rest took the
joke in the proper way, and soon he
joined in the laugh. The thirty-two
seats cost §0.40; car fare, $5.76; total
$12.10. The supper end of the bill
amounted to about $75. -Ci" *,
The Chinese know the value of ad
vertising. Here is the “ad" of an
ink manufacturer of Canton, trans¬
late.’.; “At the shop Tae-shing (pros,
perous in the extreme)—very good
ink; tine! fine! Ancient shop, great¬
grandfather, grandfather, father, and
self ma le this ink; fine and bard, very
hard; picked with care, selected with
attention. This ink is heavy; so is
gold. The eye of the dragon glitters
and dazzl -s; does this ink. No one
makes like it. Others who make
ink make it for the sake of ac¬
cumulating base coin and cheat,
while I make it only for a
M ae. Plenty of A-kwantsaes (gen¬
tlemen) know my ink—my family
never cheated— they havealways borne
a ......1 name. I make ink for the’Son
of Heaven’and all the mandarins in
the empire. As the roar of the tiger
extends to every place, so does tho
fame of the ‘ dragon’s jewel.’ ”
In the autumn of 1872, says the
London Lancet, when sanitary officers
at the Sonepore Fair, and during tho
height of the pilgrimage, when the
people thronged in thousands to the
bathing gates, Deputy Surgeon-General
Tuson first used sulphur fires as a pro¬
phylactic measure against cholera.
These fires were made at fifty yards
apart, and kept alight during the
whole time that tne Fair wai at its
height. Xot a single case of cholera
oecured; a remarkable circumstance,
since cholera had generally broken out
at previous fairs. A similar good re¬
sult was obtained at Dinaporo, where
cholera was actually prevailing. In
a pamphlet on this subject, Dr. Tuson
has adduced certain facts and argu¬
ments in support of the contention
that sulphur fires are efficacious in
epidemics of cholera. The basis of his
explanation of their efficacy is the
germ theory of the disease.
An exchange remarks that “the ex¬
traordinary longevity of the survivors
of the war of 1812 is certainly a curi¬
ous fact well worthy of notice. That
was not a great war; not many troops
were engaged, and no very large force
mustered into the service of the
United States, and the war came to an
end almost sixty-one years ago. Yet
the commissioner of pensions reports
15.875 survivors of the war on the
rolls of the pension office. Very few,
indeed, of these can be less than
eighty years of age, and the number
must be nearly if not quite ten per
cent of the whole force mustered for
the service. If the veterans of the
late war of the rebellion prove so
tenacious of life, nearly two hundred
thousand of them will survive in the
year 1926. 'Ve should be very glad to
believe that all of them would live
much longer than that, but we cannot
expect it, for it is against the course
of nature. It is hard to resist the
conviction that a large share of the
fifteen thousand veterans of 18t2 are
imposters/’_
Reached Their Destination.
F. T. Barnum recently received a
letter stamped on its face and back
seventeen times: The letter borethesu
perseription: “Mr. Barnum, America,”
and was posted in Maulmain, British
Burmah. It contained two letters ad¬
dressed to the attendants on the white
elephant. This places Barnum by the
side of Samuel Johnson and Franklin.
The latter, it is related, once paid
Johnson the compliment of addressing
him a letter, “Samuel Johnson, Great
Britain.” Not to be outdone, Johnson
re-ponded with a letter addressed to
“Benjamin Franklin, The World.” It
was duly delivered .—Chicago Journal.

Features of New 1 orlt Tailors.
A firm of London tailors for women
has opened a New York establishment.
The evidences are many that they have
reckoned on taking very profitable ad¬
vantage of the Anglomania among our
women of fashion and wealth, for they
take especial pains to announce their
employment at home by aristocrats. A
feature of the occasion is the exhibition
of garments on living models—not pretty

uine English beauties imported so fresh¬

But there is a still more remarkable de
vice for catching the fancy of New York
wearers of fashionable garments. In the
center of one room stands a hobby horse,
as big as life, covered with a real equine
skin and supported in such a way on
springs as to rise and fall like a galloper
in motion. The sides of the apartment
are mirrors. This it the department for

Pretty FMliions for Summer Horary.
Umbrella stands are useful, but every
one knows that if umbrellas are kept in
them long they get very dusty, even
with great care. A niee case for this
u«e in a seaside or summer cottage any¬
where is made of crash or linen, or any
wash material. They can be made to
hold one or two umbrellas, and are shaped
like a dagger, the outer piece is eut
rather larger and is not so long at the
top as the under side. The upper piece
is embroidered in outline-stitch with
crewels—an umbrella, or a long slender
spray of flowers make a pretty finish, or
if preferred, some comic design, a chim¬
ney sweep appearing from the top of a
chimney with his brushes. Another
v ery sensible design for country use, for
lounge or hammock, is a sofa pillow cov¬
ered with brown linen, merely a brown
linen pillow-case, a bunch of red pop
pies worked in crewels on one side, and
tied around the top with a broad
red ribbon, making one of thc
bag pillows so fashionable at
present. This of course can be laundered
when soiled. A nice shoe bag is made
of chintz or cretonne, about three fourths
of a yard long and a little less than half
a yard wide, two rows of cretonne as
wide as desired are then tacked on thi s
foundation, in four box-plaits each; be¬
tween each plait is stitched a stripe,of
red or blue worsted braid and the whole
is bound with the same. These may be
tacked on closet or wardrobe doors, and
are found very convenient when one is
limited for clo-et room. Many ladies
who board in summer carry all these lit¬
tle conveniences with them—not only for
their usefulness but they give a home like
look to the usually rather bare rooms of
the ordinary country hotel or boarding¬
house. Something pretty and appropri¬
ate for a napkin for a fish platter is three
fishes in outline-stitch in Ted crewel,
outside, or rather over these, in fine
twine colored crewel is netted a minia¬
ture seine. — Demorest,

All street and day house dresses are
made with very high collars, fitting close
in the throat, cut ou the bias, and fre¬
quently braided or embroidered.
Short mantles, jerseys, cloth and silk
jackets, long newmarkete, raglans, and
dolman visites of medium length are all
fashionably worn as street wraps.
“Jersey” gloves in silk arc very fash¬
ionable. They have been so improved
and are made with such care that they
are perfect in color, quality and fit.
Bengaline is popularly worn as a skirt
tinder draperies or polonaises of Chuddali
cloth, broche or embroidered French
cashmere, camel's hair, and woolctamine.
Bustles of stuffed hair attached to the
waistband of each separate dress are
more in favor than steel bustles, and ’tis

larger.

^Vriage among fon these Indians is a
„„ institut ; in fact, there is no
marria simp)y thc takin „ of wives .
When a young Indian wants a wife he
g 0CS to his mother and tells her so. If
she gives ber consent he goes to where
the lady of his heart is cooped up in her
fathers , house, t taking his next heat
fr ; end wUh him Xhrouo . h the latter he
6cnds word t0 hi9 inamorata that he j„
near and would wed. If she has a lean
ing toward the suitor she returns word
to him by the friend that she is inclined
to join her interests with his. He then
takes presents to her and her parents,
and having delivered them enters at
once into the possession of his bride.
There are are no further ceremonies, ex¬
cept that a day later the couple must
visit her relatives, and if she then has no
complaint to make to them about her
husband, they are given presents and the
wedding is over. This may he repeated
indefinitely, until an Indian may become
as well-to-do in wives ns a Mormon
elder. Polygamy was piactieed even by
the so-called Christian tribes when I
lived in the Territory, and their evolu¬
tion must have been rapid, from what I
remember of them, if they have aban¬
doned the practice.
“Dried salmon is the luxnrv of the Al¬
askan Indians, and the children begin to
nibble it before they think of walking.
The way they bring up children out there
would hardly suit in this region. The
mother carries her child about from the
time it is born until it is able to creep,
no matter where she goes, Until that
time she keeps it wrapped in a sort of
fur sack. The moment the young one
shows a disposition to crawl she yanks
the fur off of it, and then begins the
building up of its constitution. This is
done by giving it a souse in the sea or
river every morning, and the chorus of
yells that greets every village during thc
interesting cei emon v is something terrific.
The cries of tho young ones are piteous,
and, for fear that their maternal breasts
might not be proof against these appeals
for mercy, and thus fail to do their duty
by their offspring, the mothers do not
perform this bathing rite themselves, but
delegate some brother or sister to do the
dousing. These conscientious aunts and
uncles vary the switch with the bath, in
vain attempts to make the one overawe
the noisy results of the other.
“There is one thing that is noticeable
among these half-civilized tribes, and is
creditable withal. Their old and dis¬
abled members arc carefully attended
to, and orphans become a common charge
and fare the same as the most favored
children with living parents. These Indi
ana are original cremationists. Theirdead
are burned as soon as death ensues; their
ashes are interred on the spot and a rude
monument erected over them. They
have crude ideas of immortality, believ¬
ing that a man has a spirit that lives for
ever, but they know nothing of future
rewards or punishments. Their heaven
is a place where the spirits of chiefs con¬
gregate in one place, the common people
by themselves, and slaves, if there are
any, have still another dwelling place,
unless a chiefs slave should die with him,
and then his spirit will be in eternal at¬
tendance on his master. It was formerly
the universal custom to kill the slave
when the master died to insure the lat

The most impressive feature of a total

aureola of light, at other times invisible,
which surrounds the hidden disc and
sends out rays far into space. Dr. W

one, in the production of which each of
the suggested causes may play some
part. A very thin gaseous atmosphere
probably surrounds tlie solar g'obe, but
the coronal light must be reflected from
solid particles in that atmosphere. The
existence of one particle in a cubic mile
would account for the corona.
Quaint Ancient Customs in London.
Recently, after morning service in
the Priory church of St. Bartholomew
the Great, West Smithfield, an ancient
bequest was carried out under the
supervision of the rector and the church
wardens, by whom twenty-one new six¬
pences were placed on a tombstone in
the old churchyard, and were picked up
by an equal number of poor widows be¬
longing to the parish. T’hia quaint cus¬
tom has been maintained for a period
long anterior to the Protestant Reforma¬
tion. The money gift has been pre¬
served, although the name of the bene¬
factor lias been lost.
Another ancient custom was observed
at Allhallows church, Lombard street,
where, in accordance with the will of
Sj „„„,I, which „,e, .. back
as the year 1586, sixty of the younger
boys of Christ's hospital attended divine
service in the morning, and afterward
received . , a new penny and , a bag , of .

two hundred and ninety first celebration
of this quaint ceremony. Asa simple *
‘

Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
Orlando Snf.ll. 132 Ford st., Lo tc

Sarsaparilla cured the Carbuncles, and has

saparilla for an impurity of the blood
which manifests itself in troublesome

that I have never found any medicine
prompt and certain so
in curative effect. It
