The Many Uses of Milk.
It is true that many persons who
find it impossible to drink cold milk
can take it hot, with positive benefit,
and will find it not only palatable but
refreshing. The Restaurateur says:
“Any one who has never taken a cup
of hot milk has a new sensation in
store-for himself. Tho milk should be
fresh and must be thoroughly heated,
being careful that it does not reach the
boiling point. Drink as hot as possi
ble and in little sips. It is almost ex
hilarating as a glass of wine, and for a
cold, ti 'ed, overworked man is one of
the best drinks imaginable.”
Clabber is milk that has become
thick and nearly solid in the process
of souring. If it stands too long after
forming it decomposes and runs off in
to whey, but if taken while fresh, cov
ered with cream and sprinkled with |
sugar, it is delicious, and said to be ]
one of the most digestible forms in
which milk can be taken. When but
termilk is added to boiling whey
and the two are well mixed a soft
curd is thrown down, which is excel
lent when eaten either hot or cold
with bread. If buttermilk be put
into a linen bag and all the whey
strained off what remuins then is much
thicker and, eaten with sugar and
cream, is excellent. Whey is a nice
drink for the sick. Put one quart of
buttermilk in a j>an on the fire; when
it boils up beat up the yolk of an egg
and stir in ; add a half teacupful of
cream or a tablespoonful of butter.
Then beat tho white of an egg to a
stiff froth and stir it in. Sweet to
taste and add spice it you wish.
To make artificial cream to eat with
stewed fruit take one pint of fresh
milk, one tablcspoonful of 6ugar and
yolks of two eggs. Put the pint of
new milk into a saucepan, add the su
gar, set it on a very slow fire or the
hot iron plate of a cooking stove;
break into it the yolks of two eggs and
keep stiring, alw'ays one way, until it
becomes as thick as ordinary cream.
It must never reach the boiling point.

Dust Settlers.
With a little care the dirtiest car
pet can be swept without raising
much dust by placing outside tho door
of the room to be swept a pail of clear,
cold water. Wet your broom, knock
it against tho sido of the bucket to
get out all the drops, sweep a couple
of yards and rinse off the broom again.
Continue this until you have gone
over the entiro surface. If the carpets
is very much soiled, tho water should
bo changed several times, Slightly
moistened Indian meal is also used by
the oldest housewives. Snow, if not
allowed to melt, is also excellent as a
dust settler.—Exchange.

A LrvE School.—The trustees of the North
Georgia Agricultural College are leaving no
stone unturned to make that school second to
none in the South. As a result, the attend
ance is more than double that of the same

colleg ; ato and military departments, there
have been added this year departments in
Business, Music and Art. The same high
standard will be maintained in the new de

73d Day.—In the senate, Tuesda 1
the resolution continuing the antho °
ity of the committee on agriculture t
investigate agricultural depression dur
ing the recess and next session was
passed. Mr. Hoar asked what was
meant by the recess referred to and in
timated that if the majority had agreed
upon the time for the adjournment of
congress or a recess, it should make it
public so that senators couid make
their arrangements accordingly. Mr.
George, who reported the resolution
denied any knowledge on that point,
but said he had introduced the resolu
tion to provide against any contin
gency that might happen. The
Chinese exclusion bill was an im
portant matter that had to be dispos
ed of, and until that was done no one
could say just when congress would
adjourn. The conference report on
the urgency of the deficiency bill,
presented by Mr. Cockrell, showed
that the conferences could not agree
on the appropriation of $22,088 to pay
senators’ clerks and per diem clerks
during the recess of the fifty-first con
gress. This has been repeatedly pass
ed by the senate, and on motion of
Mr. Cockrell the senate further insist
ed upon its amendment.
74th Day.—The morning business
in the senate, Wednesday was unim
portant at the beginning, but iater on
Senator Hill introduced two amend
ments to tbe rules, one looking to the
counting (to make a quorum) of sen
ators present and declining to vote
and the other prohibiting a call on
point of “no quorum” when a senator
is speaking and oftener than onc(An
an hour. Mr. Hoar endeavored to
secure immediate consideration for a
bill and memorial, prepared by Clara
Barton, for the relief of the South
Carolina and Georgia sufferers. Mr.
Turpie objected but later withdrew
his objection to the reading of the
memorial, which suggested that $50,-
000 be placed at the disposal of the
Bed Cross to relieve the distress. Mr.
Hoar gave notice that ho should ask
to have the matter considered Thurs
day. Mr. Gray then called up the
house bill to amend the Geary Chinese
exclusion act.
75th Day.—In tho senate, Thurs
day, a number of bills were considered
and passed. Mr. Stewart introduced
a bill for the free and unlimited coin
age of silver and it was referred to the
finance committee. Mr.Stewart started
to make a free silver speech, when the
house concurrent resolution providing
for the adjournment of congress on
Novembers, at 3 o’clock p. in., was
received. Later the resolution, on the
motion of Mr. Gorman, was referred
to the committee on appropriations.
After further discussion by Messrs.
Caffery, McPherson, Allen, Peffer and
others the hour of 2 o’clock arrived and
house bill to extend the time for execu
tion of tbe Chinese expulsion act was
taken up and Mr. Davis republican,
of Minnesota, addressed the senate.
Ho offered an amendment, re-enacting
the act of July 25, 1884, to execute
certain stipulations of the treaty of
May 6, 1882, and continuing such act
in force for ten years longer. Mr
Call argued in favor of the proposed
amendment of the act of 1892. House
bill to aid the world fair winners’ ex
position to be held in New York was
laid before the Benate and referred to
the committee on finance. Mr.
White, democrat, of California, then
addressed the senate on the Chinese
bill. Ho referred to the highbinders,
a criminal organization, whose mem
bers killed men for pay. Ho said the
Chinese empire stood today not as the
indication of progress, but as a nation
incapable of absorbing anything more
than it had already taken within its
confines. All the other amendments
heretofore offered were rejected and
tho house bill was passed with amend
ment. The senate, at 5:05 o’clock p.
m., went into executive session and at
5:45 o’clock p. m. adjourned until
Friday.
legislation, had precipitated a panic.
Bland created a sensation by declaring
that the extra session and this whole
legislation had been thrust upon the
people as a stock of jobbing speculation
Bland yielded to Wheeler of Alabama,
When he concleded the silver men had
exhausted their time, and Wilson yield
ed five minutes to Springer. At 1:40
Wilson yielded to Mr. Livingston,. of
Georgia, who spoke briefly. Then
Wilson yielded five minutes to Mr.
Beed, who said the country generally
was better off when the democratic
party was disappointed. In conclu
sion he predicted calamity and mis
fortune despite the passage of the bill,
and referred to the impending
changes in the tariff as the cause. Mr.
Tracey, of New York, talked for two
minutes. Mr. Wilson closed the de
bate, and at 1:55 demanded a vote.
Mr. Bland now moved to commit to
committee on coinage, weights and
measures with instructions to report
the law of 1893, which would provide
for free coinage at sixteen to one.
Upon this yeas and nays were ordered.
Mr. Bland’s motion was defeated.
Yeas, 100; nays, 175. The roll call
on the final passage of the repeal bill
was then begun. The senate amend
ments to the repeal bill were concur
red in; yeas 191, nays 94.
75th Day.—The galleries of the
house were almost deserted Thursday
morning when it convened and not
over 100 members were on the floor.
Immediately after the reading of the
journal, General Catchings, of the
committee on rules, reported a reso
lution for final adjournment Friday at
3 o’clock. Judge Holman, of Indiana,
argued against adjournment and in
favor of a recess in order that the com
mittees might have an opportunity to
work between now and the be
ginning of tbe regular session. Mr.
Terry, of Arkansas, argued against eith
er an adjournment or a recess. Mr.
Catcnings replied that if there was any
business on the calendar there would
be much more force in the suggestion
that the house remain in continuous
session. The vote was then taken by
yeas and nays and the resolution was
carried—134 to 83. A few bills were
passed when, at 7:40 o’clock, Mr. Wil
son moved to dispense with further
proceedings under the call. This vas
for the purpose of developing whether
or not the democrats had a quorum of
their own present, the democrats
themselves voting against the motion.
The vote resulted 9 to 150. After
some further routine business the
house, at 8 o’clock, adjourned.

THE HOUSE.
73d Day.—At 12:50 Secretary of the
Senate Cox appeared at the main door
of the house and delivered the silver
bill to Speaker Crisp. At 1:30 o’clock
Mr. Livingston, of Georgia, made
request that the silver repeal bill be
taken up at once for immediate con
sideration. Mr. Bland and other sil
ver men promptly objected, and the
bill went over the rules until Wednes
day.
74th Day.—Comparatively few spec
tators were in the house galleries
Wednesday when the body met, but
the attendance of representatives show
ed a large majority present, expecting
to do business on the repeal bill. Af
ter the reading of tho journal, Mr,
Holman, chairman of the democratic
caucus, offered a resolution declaring
that Edward B. Bagby, of Virginia,
had been elected chaplain of the house.
The resolution was adopted by a viva
voce vote and the new chaplain was
sworn in by the speaker. At 12:12
house bill No. 1 (the Wilson repeal
bill) with the Yoorhees amendment-,
was laid before the house and the
amendment read by the clerk. Sir.
Bland, having declined the offer of Mr.
Wilson to allow one, two, or three
hours debate after the previous mo
tion, and having refused to enter into
any agreement whatever that did not
leave the repeal bill open for general
debate and amendment, Mr. Wilson
demanded the previous question. Mr.
Bryan, of Nebraska, in behalf of the
silver men, at once moved to adjourn
and demanded n division. The motion
was defeated—yeas 26, nays 108. The
silver men then moved a recess until
3 p. m., but this was also defeated on
division. The silver men made an inef-
j fectual attempt to secure a roll call, but
on division 29 demanded the yeas and
nays and 185 were against the mo
tion, and it was lost. Thus the sil
ver men had not even been able to
muster sufficient strength to secure
a roll call. After this they again re
sorted to alternate dilatory motions for
adjournment and recess. The weary
round of motions to adjourn to a cer
tain day, and to take a recess, contin
ued, with no relief in prospect, except
an order from the committee on rules.
At 1:15 the speaker took the reins in
his hand and heedless of interruptions
by Bailey and Snodgrass, put the mo
tion on demand for a previous question
and declared it carried. Mr. Wilson,
reserving his time, said he hoped that
if the gentleman from Missouri
(Bland) desired to occupy fifteen min
utes, he could do so now. Mr. Bland,
taking his stand in the center of the
democratic side, presented his amend
ment to revive the act of 1837, provid
ing for free coinage, which was read at
the desk, He said the moneyed inter

Fatal Boiler Explosiou.
Six men killed, another supposed to

about SI0,000 is the sum total of the
havoc wrought by the explosion of a
boiler in New York City Wednesday af

Dan & Co. Report Trade as
dedly Better.
R. G. Dnn & Co.’s weekly review of
trade says: The port is in sight after
a long and stormy voyage and the
prospect of a speedy end of the strug
gle over repeal has brought bright
hopes into business. It is still too
soon to expect much effect in trade
and manufactures, and though mone
tary obstacles are to a large extent re
moved, there still remain other legis
lative questions which create uncer
tainty.
A fact of real encouragement is that
railway earnings for the third week of
October shews an increase of 3 per
cent over last year, the first increase
for a long time. Wheat rose 2 cents,
although Atlantic exports fell to 1,100,-
000 bushels for the week, against
1,900,000 bushels last year, in part
because western receipts were 5,863,-
000 bushels, against 8,900,000 last
year. But corn declined an eighth,
with better reports of yield; coffee de
clined three-sixteenths; pork products
made only slight gains, and cotton
fell a quarter, the receipts being 60,-
000 bales greater than last year.
As yet there is seen only a continu
ance of the faint and slow increase in
the distribution of products which has
been noticed ror some weeks. Nor
does this gradual revival in demand
extend to all branches. Most of the
increase yet seen in the cotton and
shoe manufacture may be explained by
mere exhaustion in stocks of dealers,
ai frequent requests for immediate de
livery show, but there is also reported
& somewhat better demand from con
sumers and more cotton mills have
started, and seven have increased their
forces, against seven stopping, or de
creasing. A similar demand has in
creased by six the number of hosiery
and knit goods works reported in oper
ation.
The shipments of shoes from the
east in four weeks of October are 28
per cent less than last year, against 32
per cent in September; but against
eight comparatively small woolen mills
starting, five have stopped, including
one of 3,000 and another of 1,000
hands. The total sales of wool at
three chief markets, including several
million pounds believed to be for spec
ulation, have been 9,207,152 pounds
in three weeks, against 21,975,000 last
year.
Two additional iron furnaces have
g me into blast, and the present out-
p it may be a little larger than at the
b ginning of the month. Some rail
mills have resumed manufacture appa
rently to provide for future rather
than present wants of their customers,
and there is some addition to the
number of the nail and wire works
and machine shops employed.
But the demand for most products
is small. It is hoped that monetary
ease and security may encourage rail
road extensions and improvements and
more architectural work; but the
shrinkage in demand is not wholly due
to the state of the money markets.
The number and magnitude of fail
ures decreased less than had been ex
pected, the liabilities in three weeks
of October amounting to $15,072,920,
against $7,000,000 for the same week
last year. This week there have been
352 failures in the United States
against 187 last year, and 44 in Cana
da against 20 last year. Including
one bank and two western failures for
a million or more, there were sixty-

CARTER HARRISON BURIED.
A Vast Concourse Do Honor to the Mur
dered Mayor.
With solemn pomp and imposing
ceremonies befitting the interment of
the former chief magistrate of the
World’s fair city and his pitifully dra
matic fate, Carter H. Harrison’s body
was escorted to Graceland cemetery,
Wednesday, by an immense throng of
sorrowing citizens.
Tenderly the remains were borne
from the black-draped and flower-
scented corridor of the city hall,
where they had rested in state, aud
placed in the funeral car. Through a
great crowd that had gathered to see
the murdered mayor’s last leave-tak
ing of the scene of his ardent labors
in behalf of the city he loved, the
black car slowly passed and took its
place in the waiting procession.
Tho line of march was taken up, and
the thousands who had gathered to do
honor to the dead moved slowly
through the crowded streets, with
banners draped and to the sad music
of the funeral march. Out from the
center of the city the great procession
marched across the river and to the
beautiful church of Epiphany, near the
late executive home. All along the
line of march the people with sad faces
and bared heads, watched the sombre
columns, and about the church a
throng as great- as that which had been
about the city hall was gathered. The
services at the church were impres
sively solemn. The sermon was brief
but eloquent. It paid a tribute to the
life and public services of the dead
man, who had been a member of the
congregation for many years, and de
plored his assassination. The services
concluded, the casket was again borne
from the church and the march to the
tomb was resumed.
At North avenue, about two miles
distant, the foot portion of the pro
cession disbanded, and the mount
ed escort and those in carriages
continued on to Graceland cemetery.
Here about 4 o’clock in the afternoon,
amid the solelmn rendering of com
mittal service, the remains were plac
ed in a receiving vault.

Telegrauliic Afiylces
King Lobeugnla Trapped.
Advices of Thursday from Cape
Town Africa, says that the native run
ners who are reaching Fort Viotoria
confirm the belief that King Lobengula
has been trapped. He is blocked to
the northward by the tzetse fly coun
try, through which it will be impossi
ble for him to drive his cattle, cud to
the southward by the imperial troops
and the forces of the British South
African Company. Lobengula’s forces
are supposed to be in the vicinity of
the Shangani and Gaulo rivers, 140
miles west of Fort Charter. The cap
ture seems probable.

GROWTH OF THE SOUTH.
The Industrial Situation During tlif
Past Week.
The r view of the industrial situation in 1 lie
•oath for the past week shows that there is a
decidedly better feeling in industrial, financial
and mercantile circles, although it is not yet
time for the results of the lenewed confidence
to be fully manifesto. It is admitted that the
south la in better shape than for many years to
take advantage of an inc ease in bus ness. Lss
money will be needed from outskle sources to
move crops and more money will be brought in
that will remain, for the reason that the volume
of indebtedness is comparatively small.
The early es'imates as to the emonnt of cot
ton are being revised and increased. • to meet
the actual facts. I; is beginniu; to come in
with a good deal of freedom. In the iron in
dustry and in mining affairs there is no change
of any account, and in new industries establish
ed there is a slight falling off for the week.
Twenty-two new industries were established
or incorporated during the week, together with
five enlargements of manufactorie , and eight
important new building-. The most important
n w industries of the week are the Charlotte
Granite Co., of Mooresvibe. N. C-, capital

Hints to Housekeepers.
Bread crumbs cleanse silk gowns.
Gloves can be cleaned at homo by
rubbing with gasoline.
Tooth powder is an excellent clean
ser of fine filigree jewelry.
Corks warmed in oil make excellent
substitutes for glass stoppers.
The fumes of a brimstone match
will remove berry stains from the
fingers.
To roast small birds, fasten the head
under the wings. Lay a thin slice of
pork on the breast of each bird and a
piece of bread underneath. Boast in
a hot oven.
Scratches on furniture may be re
moved by rubbing with a woolen rag
dipped in boiled linseed oil. The
varnishing may then be done with
shellac dissolved in alcohol.
If celery were eaten freely, sufferers
from rheumatism would be compara
tively few. It is a mistaken idea that
cold and damp produce the disease;
they simply develoj) it. Acid blood is
the primary and sustaining cause. If
celery is eaten largely, an alkaline
blood is the result, and where this ex
ists there can be neither rheumatism
nor gout. It should be eaten cooked.
A good whitewash is prepared as
follows: Take six quarts of nice lime,
slack it with boiling water, then cover
it till it cools a little and strain it, add
then a quarter of a pound of alum,
burnt and powdered, on« pound of
sugar, three pints of rice' flduir boiled
to a thin paste with water an\ a pound
of clean glue dissolved. When all
these ingredients are well mixed, add
five gallons of hot water. If this
whitewash is applied to outside build
ings while it is hot, it will last for a
long time; it may he colored. A little
copperas as large ns a hickory nut is
said to give a buff shade. A certain
proportion of salt is ordinarily added
to common whitewash to make it stick,
but salt is not used in this rule, other
ngredients taking its place.
Stronger Than the Eye.
A Household Necessity.
No household should be without a
tightly corked bottle of boric acid in
powdered and absorbent cotton. When
a cut, wound, scatch or sore of any
kind is to be attended to, put some
cold boiled water into a cup and add
boric acid until the water will dissolve
no more, and a thick layer remains
undissolved in the bottom. Wash first,,
your own hands in hot water and cni-
tile soap, and then the wound, after
which sponge it off with a wad of cot
ton dipped in the solution and tie up
in clean linen wet with it. This will
allay the pain and throbbing, and un
less it is very severe will heal it in 24
hours.—Exchange.
Os some railroads the cars are pro
vided by the Bible society and other
religious organizations with Bibles
that are kept in racks, and curiously
enough the racks are systematically
robbed.
The massive six-foot reflector in the
Lord BoEse telescope at Parsontown,
Ireland, is justly considered one of the
modern wonders of the world. This
gigantic reflector, the first that ever
solved the problem of tho Nebula of
Orion, is set iu the end of a 55-foot
wooden tube held together by iron
bands. Although it weighs a fraction
over four tons, it is so sensitive that
the pressure of the hand upon the
back will produce distortion in the
reflected image of a star. Compared
with the human eye, this monster re
flector is as 130,000 to 1. It has a
penetrating power of 500 and can re
veal stars so remote from our earth
that it would require 60,000 years for
their light to reach us, and yet light
travels at the unthinkable speed of
192,500 miles per second.—St. Louis
