Wretched English In Newspapers.
“Such wretched English as we get in
our newspapers!” exclaimed a certain
Chicago clergyman not long since. It is
“There is no polish in the work.
clumsily done. Words are badly chosen,
shades of meaning are tost in bungling
composition, and sometimes there are
grammatical errors. I don’t see why our
newspapers cannot bo better written.”
One night last week this clergyman
happened to be in a newspaper office.
Near where he stood talking with one of
the editors of tho papers was a reporter
writing. On the desk in front of him
lay his watch open. With one hand the
young man was movim.- i j>encil at an
amazing speed, and with the other was
manipulating a cigarette with that skill
and ease which only cotuo of long experi¬
ence.
The clergy nun’s curiosity was roused.
“Why the watch?” ho inquired. “Oh, ”
replied the editor, “the young man has
just come in from his assignments. He
has been busy all afternoon and early in
tho evening gathering information con¬
cerning a matter of considerable public
interest. lie has been doing some lively
lmstling, and is probably tired. lie is
also hungry, but his superior has told
him that he is to havo his copy finished
at a certain hour. In two hours he must
write a column and a half. That is why
he has iris watch out. He is timing him¬
self. If ho finds he is falling behind he
will work all the harder to catch tip.
That is the way newspapers ore made.
Would you like to write your sermons in
that fashion, and then havo somebody go
over your work at his leisure and criti¬
cise your style and your choico of
words?”—Chicago Tribune.
Duelling Houses in Japan.
Japanese houses are toys in size and
toys in construction, resting on corner
posts set on largo rocks, that they may anil
give and s^ny with earthquakes,
held in place and made stable by the
heavy roof3 of mud and tiles. The only
way of stemming a fire is to tear down
the houses in advance of the flames, and
tt is done as easily as a child knocks over
a house of blocks or cards. A rope is
fastened to one of the upright corner
poets, the crowd gives one pull, and there
is a crash and a cloud of dust as the shell
of mud and tiles falls upon the ruins of
the flimsy dwelling. A thatched roof or
a shingle roof drops quite as easily. The
ordinary house or shop in the town sel¬
dom exceeds twelve feet in frontage, and
if there is a second story it H quite as
much in miniature and the roof not more
than fifteen feet from the ground. It
sounds frightful to hear of 600 or 1,000
houses being burned in a night, but with
these liliputian dwellings and their mi
croscopio landscape gardens back of
them, tho area need not be more than
that of two or four small city blocks. -

A general," who was sent as a special
envoy t- the funeral of Emperor Will¬
iam, "has vvi itten to his government that
he was «vi .ii leistruck at the manner in
which her royal and imperial majesty
the Empress Augusta held on to leer post.
The military spirit, he said, extends it¬
self at Berlin even to the court ladies,
and braces up among them those who in
other countries would reckon themselves
invalids. The empress has the petrified and
rigidity at features of all the august
illustrious personages who, growing old
with Emperor William, liavo survival
him. She received in a darkened room,
and wore the German widow’s cap and
double veil, the front part of which was
thrown back. The arms of her chair
project a little forward, and are arranged
by means of an ingenious mc-chanism to
rise to tho level of her armpits when
when she stands, and thus hold her up.
She stood supported in this way when
receiving tho ambassadors, special en¬
voys and princes who attended the fu¬
neral. Ths latter were legion. Every
German reigning house, mediatized or
other, sent a deputation of it3 scions,—

Larg;c*«t Loss in the War.
The official casualty lists of the Con¬
federate forces aro not so trustworthy as
those of tho Union side because they have
not had careful revision since tho war
closed, but the tables now accessible
show tliat the northern aim was equally
true, and that the northern nerve was
equally steady . The Twenty-sixth North
Carolina - Pettigrew’s brigade, Heth’s
division—lost at Gettysburg 80 killed and
502 wounded; total, 688, not including
tho missing, of whom there were about
120. In one company, 84 strong, every
man and officer was hit; and the orderly
sergeant who made out the list did it
with a bullet through each leg. Tills is
by far the largest regimental loss on each
side during the war.—\V. F. Fox in The

To Cut'a Bottle.
A simple method of accurately cutting level
a bottle is to place it upon ■ ne
foundation ^rnd fill it with linseed oil to
the point at which you desire the line of
separation to occur. Then take an iron
rod of as great a diameter as will pass
into the bottle, make it almost white hot
and dip it into the oil. After the !:n>se of
a few moments a sharp crack is heard,
and tho bottle is found to he as neatly
cut as if with a diamond. If the Untie
be very thick, and tne crack me sound
not heard in a few seconds, a litttp cold
water thrown on the outride \ ill sn-
plish the desired result.—Frank ! . h-
