In the famous treatise of William Gil
bert on the magnet, printed in 1600, the
word 1 'electric" is first used and electricity
is for the first time recognized as a branch
of science.
Da. Park Benjamin of New York owns
a copy of the first printed work relating
toelectricity. It appeared in 1490in an
edition of “The Lives of the Philoso
phers’’ by Diogenes Laertius.
Gladstone says that the solution of
the Armenian problem "rests with the
Almighty,” but it may be doubted if
Great Britain can thus shift the respon
sibility for a situation that exists by her
permission and practical approval.
It is staled that some timo this year
work will be started on the New Orleans
and Western, which is projected to run
from New Orleans to Texas, about equi
distant from the Southern Pacific and
the Texas and Pacific. The section is
rich in lumber.
Brazil does not want to arbitrate the
dispute about Trinidad. There is noth
ing in this to be wondered at. When a
citizeu is held up by a footpad he would
resent a proposition to arbitrate. To
make arbitration successful there must
be at least the shadow of justice on each
side of the question.
The bicycle manufacturers are expect
ing to sell about 800,000 of those vehicu
lar contrivances this year, the aggregate
cost of which to tlio purchasers will not
be less than $60,000,000. The rapidity
with which the wheel has gained in pop
ularity is ono of the striking facts of cur
rent history, and it has manifestly come
to stay.
A magazine writer says that Cripple
Creek got its name from a trio of pros
pectors who happened to stop on the
banks of the stream becauso their mule
had gone lame. They discovered signs
of gold and decided to stay aw ile. While
putting up a shanty one of tho men fell
from the roof and struck on the dog
which they bad with them, breaking his
own arm and the leg of the canine. This

Touching what are called "the ameni
ties ot war,” Archibald Forbes remarks
in his recant book that much that is
said upon the subject is mere humbng.
The object of military operations, he
points out, is to deal as hard blowH
against the opposing as possible, and
then to cause so much suffering to tho
inhabitants of a country that they will
long for peace. “War is hell,” Nher
man once declared; and Sheridan said
“Nothing should be left to the people
hut eyes to lament.”
dollars, and while the poachers cannot
resist the consequent temptation, the
park is so extensive that n6 effectual pro
tection can be afforded by the few troop
ers in charge. Professor Langley sug
gests the removal of the buffalo to the
National Zoological Park in Washington,
from which, as their numbers increased,
they could be distributed throughout the
United States.
Otto Lilienthal, who for several
years has been practicing the art of Hy
ing, or soaring, with artificial wings
near Berlin, has recently made an im
provement in his apparatus. Instead of
a Bingle large framework for the “wings,”
he now uses two smaller frames, one
placed above tho other, and connected
by cords. This device has greatly in
creased the sailing power of his machine.
Starting from the top of the artificial
hill, which he has thrown up in the
midst of a broad plain, Lilienthal is able
not only to glide for long distances
in the air, but to sail against the wind.
Formerly he had to take a preliminary
run before launching himself from the
hill, but now, with a moderately brisk
wind, he can start without running, and
if tho breezo is strong enough it lifts him
from tiie hilltop and sots him moving
agaiust its own direction without effort
on his part, except to balance himself
properly, lie has even occasionally
risen above ttie point from which he
started. Lilienthal has had one or two
Berious falls, but is confident thnt he can
accomplish much more tbau he lias yet
done in the realm of the birds.

Dont Want Competition-
The market has been deluged with
Cape .lessamine buds the past two weeks,
the fruit commission house getting
more than could dispose of, low as the
prices were. These beautiful flowers
came from Mississippi, Texas, Alabama
and Louisiana, but unfortunately the
prices did not average much over ex
press charges. Although those attrac
live flowers cannot be grown In this
climate, the tlorists here are alow to
take hold of them and do not encourage

tly, wos a grandson Luclen, Bonaparte.
He was a very charitable man. Daring
one of his illnesses a servant came to
him aDd said that a poor person at the
door begged for alms. "Give him what
money you will find in uiy purse,” said
the cardinal. “There is uo money

all given away. We have nothing left
but pewter spoons.” “Well, bring him

American caudy is proving very suc
cessful in England, where the confec
tioner’s art is at a low Htage. An Amer
ican teaveler reports that “an English
candy store, called a‘sweetmeat, shop,’
is a tirrible sight; everything looks
siicky, nasty, and largely colored with
obviously unhealthy substances. Also,
there seems to rre little if any attempt to
keep these ‘sweetmeats' fresh, and the
prices at which they are sold—20 cents
a pound—almost precludes their being
made of good materials."
Log Weakness-
The time of year is now coming when
many a Btock cock will become afllicted
with so-called “leg weakness,” and there
are some who will recommend the rub
bing of the bird’s legs with embrocations,
etc. Possibly many birds may have re
covered after being so treated, but what
we would like to say is that in our opin
ion the treatment had nothing to do with
their after health, at least not such
treatment as had reference to the rub
bing of the legs. To our mind it is simply
a matter of the fowl's system being run
down, and nothing more. Remove such
a bird from tho hens for a few weeks,
and give daily, (night and morning) ten
drops of colchicum wine in a teaspoon
ful of cod liver oil, and we will guarantee
that on such treatment he will recover
in half tho time that he would have done
from any outward application. Toshow
the efficiency of our remedy, we mention
a fact, well known in the fancy, of a bird
we purchased some six or seven years
ago in a gift class at Tunbridge Wells
show. Although he had won numbers
of challenge cups and first prizes, he was
in such a wretched condition, and had
been lor a long while, that his owner had
sent him to the gift class, and he had
been sold previous to our arrival for Is.
(Id. We found out the purchaser, and
eventuelly bought the bird for 3s. Or).
Wittiiu twenty minutes of giving him a
dose of the above the fowl was eagerly
eating his feed, and within a very short
space ot tune tiad fully regaiued the use
of I is legs, and eventually proved to^be
a most remunerative purchase.

who, seeing a dead whale cut open, took

A negro man and a boy, 12 years of

trying to cross a swollen branch near
Xewnan. They were in a wagon, but
the stream, lately strengthened by
rains, was too swift. The wagon was
overturned and the occupants drowned.
The horse escaped.
A negro woman named Julia Jones,

Washington, who had been bitten by a
cat about twelve months ago, died last

of hydrophobia. The bito had never

The Georgia mineral and agricultural
exhibits which excited such favorable
comment at the Atlanta exposition, are
being placed in position on the third
floor of the capitoTfmTIcfing. The state
of Georgia made an appropriation of
$15,000 for this exhibit. The act appro

A pardon has been issued at t lie execu-
tive department for J. C. Price, who was
convioted in 1892 in Fulton county for
stealing a horse. Tho pardon was re
commended by the pardon committee at
its recent meeting, the evidence showing
that Price had been on a protracted
spree at the time of the theft, and that
this was the reason why he failed to re
turn the horse to its owner.
Sol Maddox and G. C. Owens, two
United States prisoners, escaped from
Fulton county jail Tuesday night. Soou
after dark the two men ripped up a plank
from the flooring, punched a hole in the
ceiling of the old wooden jail, gained the
roof and from there they quietly dropped
over the fence and escaped. Maddox
had only thirteen days to serve. Owens
had not been tried.
The death of the oldest woman in Ful
ton county, if not in Georgia, was record
ed at the office of the board of health at
Atlanta Tuesday. The woman was Car
oline Bowden, colored, who lived at 50
Hollis street. Her age as recorded was
115 years, she having been born in 1781,
at which time Washington was presi
dent. The cause of the womai’s death,
as given by the physicians, was “old
age.”
DuriDg the progress of the closing ex
ercises of the Lutherville school Monday
night, Walter Bingham shot and fatally
wounded a young man by the name o!
Thompson. Lutherville is a little town
in Meriwether county. Bingham car
ried his cousin, a Miss Gilbert, to
Lutherville to attend the closing exer
cises of the school and about night
Thompson, who was paying some atten
tion to Miss Gilbert, was seated by her
in the rear end of the house. He was
taking some improper liberties with Miss
Gilbert whereupon she beckoned to
Bingham to come over where they were.
Bingham asked Thompson in a very
polite manner to move ordeaist. Thomp
son paid no attention to Bingham. Then
the young lady moved and Bingham
took a seat by her. Then Thompson
walked over and angrily asked Bingham
out. When they reached the yard in
front of the door Thompson began pound
ing and hitting Bingham over the head
with brass knacks, making some ugly
wounds. Someone handed Bingham a
pistol duriug the fray and Bingham shot
Thompson in the neck, making a.i ugly
wound which will prove fatal.

H. J. Kimbreil of Clarkston had taken
from his arm last Sunday a piece of hick
ory switch used on him over thirty years
ago by a country school teacher for some
frivolous offense, In the severe flogging
young Kimbreil was receiving the hick
ory broke, a piece penetrating tho mus
clo of his arm. It was thought all the
wood had been removed at the time, hut
the wound bled so freely as to deceive
the classmates, and quite recently the
scars became inflamed and the wood was
taken from his arm by Jack Sawyer Sun
day morning. Mr. Kimbreil says the
teacher cried and wrote his lather a nice
note tho same day, sending, or rather
starting it by him, which was thrown
into a creek oast of Stone mountain, with
a rock tied to it for a sinker.
Gov. Atkinson has recently received
twenty-two applications for scholarships
in tho Augusta Medical Uollege. The
state has the right to appoint for every
collegiate year two young men from each
congressional district to ho educated free
at his institution. When a young man
has tue good fortune to receive a schol
arship at the hands of the governor, he
can gain a medical education at a very
small'cost, his expenses amounting to
but little more than his board bill. These
appointments are made every year, so
that*thoso who have already received
scholarships and urestill undergraduates
must be reappointed to hold their place
in the college. Some ol the twenty-two
applications recently sent to the gover
nor 4re from young men who have been
inrttte institution, but th*gimti
then) are from youths seeking
ships for the first time. As some of the
undergraduates of the college are not in
cluded iu this list of applicants, and as
the appointment ol the whole number
would throw these men out of a place
in the institution, it is cerluin that only
a few scholarships will be given this
year.

"When you contract your services against

A Daughter’s Part in the Home-
Ail mothers are desirous that their daugh
ters receive a liberal education but wo would
warn them not to be neglectful of the home
education, in the pursuit of the mental
training. Do we not agree that one of the
sweetest things a girl can do Is to he kihd,
gentle and thoughtfnl to all her loved ones
and to receive friends graceously in the
home ? An exchange warns our girls not to
stand oil in the middle of the room and
how coldly and formally to the friend who
has called. Walkover to meet her, give
her your hand, and say pleasantly that you
are very glad to see her again. Stiff, cold
and formal ways of greeting acquaintances
are not proper in a girl welcoming guests to
her father’s house. A daughter's part la to
assist her mother on every social occasion.
The girl pours the tea in her mother's draw-
sack aprons and the Mother Hubbard style
which Is generally good for apron or drew.
The sack aprons may have the round col
lar, the end of sleeves and the tiny pocket
trimmed with a narrow, oolored linen lace
and a feather stitching of rope linen floes.
The Mother Hubbard aprons may have a
square, round or pointed yoke of the mate
rial or of a contrasting color and material.
The large sleeves may be gathered Into
straight or turnback cuffs, or plain bands.
The edge of yoke, sleeves and neck, may be
trimmed with lace, embroidery or raffles of
the same and a heading made of fancj
braid, or a feather stitching oi Barbour’s
linen.
A very pretty apron is cut in sack shape
but very wide, and the extra width taken up
in tucks simulating a yoke, which with the
roll collar and cuffs are trimmed with
feather stitching. R. E. Mkrryman.
Delightful Summer Desserts-
Many of onr housekeepers refuse to at
tempt making fancy Ices became they do
not know how easily they can Do done.
Here are some delicate deserts furnished
by Table Talk:
Frozen Pudding.—Make a quart of rich
e Rg custard. Lot cool, add a glass of currant
jelly, an ounce ot chopped cltrou, a quarter
of a pound of candied fruit cut fine, an ounce
of nuts, blanched and split, and the juice of
half a lemon. M i well, and stir In carefully
hair a pint of whipped cream. Turn Into a
freizer and freeze. Pack into a pudding
mold, and bury in ice and salt for two
hours.
Nesselrode Pudding.—Shell a pint of nuts,
peel and put them in a sauce pan with boil
ing water; set over the lire to boil for fifteen
minutes, take ap, drain, and press through
a colander. Shell and pound a pint of
almonds. Cut up a pound of nilxed candled
fruit, and one pineapple. Make a syrup of
a pint ol water and a pound of sugar. Heat
the yolks of five eggs and add to the boiling
syrup, lake from the fire and beat until cold.
Add the fruit and the nuts with a pint of
cream and a teaspoonful of vanilla. Mix
well together, (urn into a freezer and freeze
When frozen remove the dasher, drain off
the water, repack the freezer in Ice and salt,
cover and stand aside for three or four
hours.
Flavor of Eggs.
The flavor of eggs depends very much
on the kind of tood given to the poultry.
When liens are fed largely or almost ex
clusively ou milk, the yolk is lighter in
color, the white has a milky look, and
the whole egg is watery and less firm in
texture than those laid by grain fed hens.
The taste of tho egg is also affected,being
insipid and unsatisfied when boiled or
poached, and less fine for ordiuary cook
ing purposes even. There is no use iu
saying that the idea of the qualify of
eggs being influenced by the food of tho
hens is a mere whim; since it is a woll
known fact that the eggs of fowls kept
on tho sea, and fed almost entiroly on
fish—taken as thoy come, embracing the
strong and the oily, as well as the more
delicate sorts—have “an ancient, and
fish like” taste, if not “smell;” ami <-ggs
coming from those regions sell for I,-ns in
the market in some instances than those
coming from districts farther inland.
The reason why hens fed ou slops of
mile, etc., are able to give no betlereggs
to their owners, is because the old, old
story is repeated in their case. “You
demand the tale of brick of your ser
vants, but you give them no straw to
make them with.” Curd hardly comos
under the head of milk, and there is lit
tle danger of having it in large quantities
to offer to your fowls. It contains all
the hem wul most nutritious portions of
the milk, without its objectionable, wa
tery qualities. But the true feed for
laying fowls is one-tbird or one quarter
of Indian corn, ground or otherwise, and
oats or wheat, together with milk and
whatever scraps from the house are ob
tainable, and as much green vegetable
food as they will eat, and with these,
combined and fed properly, your eggs
will be of the true gold and silver stamp,
when the cook’s fire has refined (hem
and prepared them as a relish for your
breakfast table.—Poultry World.
Biscuits Glacee.—Make a syrup of three-
quarters of a pound of sugar and a pint of
water. Add the beaten yolks of six eggs,
and stir over the tire until thick. Take up
and beat until stiff and cold. Flavor with a
teaspoonful of vanilla, whip a pint of cream
and stir carefully with the mixture. Turn

sent, she helps the guests to the sandwich?
and the cakes which are served a five o’clock
tea, and herself hands the cups and takes
them from the guest who would like to be
relieved. Apart from, and more important
even than her manner to a guest who hap
pens in for an hour or a day, is the manner
of a daughter to her father and mother.
The father returns to his home after a
wearying day of business. He is tired in
body and mind. Coming back, as his latch
key turns in the home door, he throws efi
care ; he is joyous at the thought of the dear
ones he will meet after hours of absence.
Mis young daughter, in a pretty gown , with
the bloom and freshness only girlhood wears
shonlu be ready to give him the attentions
he loves—the kiss, the cheery word—to help
her mother and the rest in letting the father
see how much he is loved at home. Men
give up a great deal for their families—their
time, strength, the knowledge they have
gained in file's experiences—they spend
everything freely for home's Bake, and the
home should pay its debt in much outspoken
love.

Little Girl's Aprons
For the real little girl who loves to play in
the sand and dabble in the water, aprons
are almost a necessity.
A very pretty apron of pink and white
gingham has a low square neck and no
sleeves. The waist is in Gretchen shape
(plain) and the skirt is slightly full.
A feather stitching of Barbour’s rope linen
Moss finishes the neck and arm holes. A
blue and white apron wonld be equally
pretty.
Another apron is made of white barred
muslin and has the neck and arm holes
trimmed with a narrow lace edge. The
edges are decorated with a cross stitch pat
tern worked with the rope linen.
An apron of the same material has three
nox plaits on the waist front and two at the
hack.
A vine-'ixe pattern is worked on the plaits
amt around the bottom of the skirt, In cross
stitch, wilh Barbour's linen in any color
desired.
The neck ami arm holes are finished with
lace.
A pretty style has a square yoke or Ber-
tba to which is gathered the slightly full
waist.
The waist and skirt are gathered into a
belt. A n. file of lace or embroidery finishes
the lower edge ol the yoke and around the
arm holes. The yoke and belt are embroid
ered with rope linen Hjss.
These aprons are very dainty and suitable
to wear over nice dresses, but for every day
wear dark gingham, calico, and linen are
preferable. A neat decoration which takes
but little time and costs almost nothing
renders the little garment doubly accept
able to its little wearer.
If the neok of the apron is left high and
and sieeves sewed in tbe arm holes, it may
take tbe place of the dress on hot days.
Besides the plain, plaited and gathered
waists, with full skirts, there are the plaiu
Frozen Cocoanut Custard.—Fat a quart of
rich milk on to boil. Beat the yolka of five
eggs with half a pound of powdered sugar

Fruit Sou ille.—Cover half a box of gelatine
with cold water and let soak one hour, add
half a cupful of hot water and stir until dis

set on ice, strain the gelatine into it and stir
nntil it begins to thicken. Stir in lightly
and quickly a quart of whipped cream.
Turn into an Ice cream mould, pack iu salt

ltlkn Factories to Close.
All the Toledo bicycle factories except
two, and which employ about six thou
sand men, are to shut down for an in
definite period. This is said to be the
first movement towards curtailing the
output of wheels and tbe primary object
of which is to force prices np to the $100
