N SUMPTION • J MADAGASCAR. The Big Island to Which France Has Sent an Expedition. Its Queen is Bound to Wed Her Prime Minister. Madagascar, which lias given rise to much excitement in Europe, France having sent an expedition to subdue the natives, is the third largest island in the world, and is situated to the cast of the African continent, from which it is separated bv the Mozam¬ bique Channel. The population num¬ bers between 400,000,000 and 500,000, 000, divided into numerous tribes, the governing one of which is Hova, in¬ habiting a province of tho central highlands called Imerna. The island was discovered in 1506 by the Portuguese, who named it St. Lawrence. The French have coveted it evor since 1442, when « company called the Society dc l’Orient was formed under the patronage of Car¬ dinal Richelieu, with the object of colonizing it; but all attempts at con¬ quest have been unsuceesssul. By tho treaty of Paris (1814) ft num¬ ber of French settlements on tho east coast became British, ss dependences of Mauritius, then ceded, and to these was added in 1815 a portion of the northeast coast, including Port Loqucx and Diego Suarez, In 1810 diplo¬ matic and commercial relations were entered into between Great Britain and Kudfimn I., King of tho llovas, who was acknowledged as sovereign of tho whole island. By the treaty con¬ cluded between the British and Mala¬ gasy in 1805 the seme title of supre¬ macy was accorded to Queen Iiasohe rino, amt by the French-Malagasy treaty of 1808 to her suocossor, liana lavona II. By tho treaty of 1885 France ob¬ tained tho Port of Diego Suarez as a naval station. Tho Malagasy Govern¬ ment has always declined to admit the political rights claimed by Franca, al¬ though Great Britain formally recog¬ nized tho French protectorate over the island in 1890. Although all tho acts of the govern¬ ment are done m her name, Ranava lona Nanjaka III., tho present Queen of Madagascar, has no political authority. Sho reigns, but her hus¬ band, Rainilaia Rivony, tho Prime Minister, rules. Ho succeeded his older brother as ruler of tho island, after a coup d’etat in 1804. In 18811, on the death of Ranavalona II., ho raised the Princess Razallndrahoty to •~-e throne, iguoring tho claims of hor elder sister, who was noted for her in¬ temperance. Tho Princess, who was then twenty one years of age,* had a few months previously lost hor husband, Prince Ratrimo, and was in desperately straitened ciroumstanocs. The prop¬ erty of the family was such, in fact, that her undo had to earn his liveli¬ hood as a butcher. Rainilaia Rivony, who was llfty-live years old, married her ns soon hn she had assumed the royal dignity, iu aooordaucj with an invariable custom obtaining in tho island, by which tho Queen is hound to many tho Prime Minister. Like nil the llovas tho Queen in very intelligent. Sho was educated by nuns of the French Order of St. Joseph of Cluny, but wits subsequently converted to Protestantism, the State religion, through the influence of the Angto llovn party. Of late years great efforts have been made to improve the army on Europe¬ an methods. According to » British officer who during tho operations against the French iu 1884-85 served with General Willoughby, cotnnmn l sr-in-chief of tho Hova army, the j 0 ( rt i Htrongth of the latter is about 14,000 , . armed with tho Hinder . . meu, Tbt>ir * rtilk ‘ r y oow»ts <>f two batteries of four seven pound mounted ^ eflch> wLich MB 1)0 ,, ltu . ei , ou u war footing of six guns, and six bat¬ teries of six barrelled Gatling guns, each weapon fitted with a feed machine to carry 8,000 pounds.—New York Recorder. Where Macaroni Is Prepared. Macaroni is largely made by mt ehinery in this country, but there are still thi> little Italian bakoshops where the tubular paste is prepared by hand mut'h as it was in those old days when the Sicilians got their customs and traced their blood to the maritime Greeks. Iu u certain small bakery iu Bleecker street, the proprietor of 'which comes from Genoa and bears a historic name, von will see the succu¬ lent cylinders turned out with a aim plieity which smacks of the kandmill aud the wheat mortar stage of breail jinking. Tables are set in front and the show window is decked with tl most tempting confections of Roman taste; Cut thi F6 is a larger room in the rear. »nd there yon will find two Its tans with bared arms grinding and crack¬ ing the hard Dakota wheat, sifting it with a revolving serein to separate the broken kernel from the bran, and kneading the mass withastotit wooden block until it is like paste The w heat has been carefully washed at the start, and if the day Ire fine, dried in the sun Aftc: it h been broken up and thnnq u hour the dough i* taken out no*J {>Uce4 it) t cylinder with ft perforated bottom. A plunger is placed on top of the cylinder, and the whole available force of the shop bend their weight to the lever, From out the perforated bottom dozens of macaroni tubes start wrig¬ gling toward the floor. Little plugs, a trifle smaller than the holes and held in place by pins, half close the per¬ forations, and the dough, forced around them, is transformed into hol¬ low tubes in exactly the same way that the housewife shapes her doughnuts. The macaroni is cut off in lengths of ton feet and hung to dry upon wooden frames before it is put on the market. —New York Mail an<l Express. Substitute for Hard Lumber. The enormous advance which has of lute taken place in the price of some of the hardwoods required in various special branches of trade lias directed attention to the possibility of pro¬ ducing some less expensive material as a substitute, says the English Mechanic, and in one branch of trade this has been carried out with very successful results. For the manufacture of loom shut¬ tles box-wood has hitherto been very largely used, but tho price of this description of wood has become al¬ most prohibitive, and it has been found that by compression of cheaper classes of timber—teak being about tho most suitable for Ibis purpose a substitute meeting all the require¬ ments can be obtained. For carrying out this process an English firm has just completed a powerful hydraulic press to bo used in compressing timber for loom shut¬ tles. This pross consists of a strong cast-iron top and bottom, with four stool columns and stool cylinder, with a largo ram. The timber is put into this dio, and a pressure of fourteen tons per square inch is applied. The presstiro is then relieved, and tho large rain descends. Tho top pressure block, which fits tho dio, is then re¬ moved, and tho small ram, rising pushes the timber out at the top of the die. The timber so treated is made very dense and uniform and so close grained that it is capable of taking a very high finish. For tho manufac¬ ture of shuttles it has been found as good as boxwood, and thero is no doubt it might bo applied to other branches of industry where expensivo hardwoods have to bo used, Testing Bridges, Tho life of iron bridges is consid¬ ered by some as unlimited, provided they arc well cared for, while other en¬ gineers believe it to bo from fifty to 100 years. Tho great cost of the re nowitl of iron bridges renders it im¬ portant to determine as exactly as pos¬ sible when a structure ought to bo re¬ built. A mere ocular inspection is not sufficient to do this, and periodi¬ cally repeated measurements, with the help of instruments, become indispen¬ sable. Tho deflection is frequently meas¬ ured iu tho following manner: A piece of paper on a board is fastened to a truss in tho center. Against it is placed the point of a pencil, which is stuck through a vertical plnnk placed alongside, and tho point describes a vertical line on tho paper when tho bridge deflects under a load. But tho results arc inaccurate, as tho length of the lino cannot bo measured exactly, and expensive temporary staging is necessary. This method has been im¬ proved in various respects. A narrow plank and pencil liavo been suspended from tho truss, turn¬ ing ou a liingo. Before and after tho loading tho pencil is inado to describe an are on a fixed piece of jrapor. Tho distance between tho axes, which can be measured more accurately than a line, gives the deflection. A steel point and a zinc plate are proposed instead of the pencil and paper. Certain en¬ gineers record tho deflection ou a re¬ volving paper-covered cylinder, aud others run a wire, which is fastened to a weight of about sixty-five pounds over a sheave turning a hand, which records on a graduated sector.—Paving and Municipal Engineering. Safe anti Rapid Telegraphii.g. Au instrument has been contrived by Louis C. Coe, an operator at Green Oak, Mich., that automatically repro duces a type-written message more rapidly than by the ordinary Morse system. Operators at intervening offices may discover which offices are in circuit, but cannot overhear the passing message ; even the w ire ma)’* be tapped and yet no one can steal the message. Absolute secrecy is thus St . c „ r ,. ( i. it is also claimed by the in venter that his system is not affected by leakage or induction, and that the receiving instrument is noiseless, Such a contrivance would remove one great objection of telegraphing, in that the secrecy of telegrams would be assured: and in the sporting spec¬ ulations. would prevent the stealage of the results of a prize fight, a horse race, a chicken contest or other high moral function, by tapping the wire from the house tops.—Atlanta Con stitntion.

Eight Thousand Varieties Known to the World. It seems almost incredible that th rre should be 8,000 varieties of postal 'sards, but that Is the extent claimed for a collection. These, however, in¬ clude various issues of the same nation and denomination, and also cards is¬ sued for special occasions. Postal cards have been in circulation a little less than twenty-five years. The idea originated with Dr. Emanuel Harmann, a professor of national economy Wiener, at the Imperial Academy ol in Neustadt, Lower Austria. His ideas, under the head of “New Means of Correspondence by Post," ware published and attracted the at¬ tention o! the government offieials. The director general of posts took up the idea and succeeded in having an issue of postal cards put in circulation in 1869. The original name given them was the “ correspondnz karte,” and this has been retained ever since. This new move on the part of Austria quickly excited other countries to adopt a similar method of correspond¬ ence, and before the close of 1870 nearly all the European countries Were using cards. Germany was really the second country to employ them, and a special series was issued to the soldiers en¬ gaged in the Franco-German war. These were called the field-post cor¬ respondence cards, and were sold un¬ stamped to the soldiers at the rate of about five for a half-penny. The soldiers had the privilege of using them without paying postage. Another series was issued for civi¬ lians. These had a place left for a stamp, and the writer hail to aflix a German postage stamp to tho card be¬ fore posting. The field post-cards are now rare, the used ones being scarcer than the unused ones. Another card of equal rarity, and also a reminder of the same war, is the balloon post-card, issued by France daring the siege of Paris. The cards were sent up from Paris in balloons, and the mail bags were thrown off into the surrounding country, where there was the least possible opportun¬ ity of their capture by tho enemy. They were smaller than the post¬ card now in use, and were covered with war-like expressions as “Paris defies the enemy 1” “Glory and con¬ quest signify crimes, defeat signifies hate and a desire for revenge.” “Only one war is just and right—that for in¬ dependence.

ACUTE DYSPEPSIA. SYMPATHETIC HKA.HT DISEASE OFTEN ATTENDS IT. The Modern Treatment Consists In Re¬ moving the Causo. ... (From the Republican, Cedar Rapids, Iowa). Mrs. V. Curley, who has resided In Clarence, Iowa, for the past twenty-two years, tells an interest! 11 ® story of what she considers rescue from premature death. Her narrative is as follows: “For ten years prior to 1894, I was a eo2 stant sufferer from acute stomach trouble. X had ail tho manifold symptoms of acute dvs pepsia, and at times other troubles were pres out in complication—I did not know what it was to enjoy a meal. No matter bow careful I might bo as to the quality, quantity and preparation of my food, distress always fol¬ lowed eating. X was despondent and blue. Almost to the point of insanity at times, and would have boon glad to dio. Often and often X could not sleep. Sympathetic lioart trouble set in and time and again I was ob ltgod to call a doctor In the night to relieve sudden attacks of suffocation which would oome on without a moment’s warning. ‘ ‘My troubles increased as time wore on and I spent large sums in doctor bills, being com¬ pelled to have medical attendants almost con¬ stantly. During 1892 and 1893, it was im¬ possible for me to retain food, and water brashes plagued me. X was reduced to a skeleton. A consultation of physicians wa3 unable to determine Just what did ail me. Tho doctors gave us as their opinion that the probable trouble was ulceration of the coats of the gtomaoh and held out no hope of re¬ covery. One doctor said, ‘All I can do to relieve your suffering is by the use ot opium.’ “About this time a friend of mine, Mrs. Symantha 8mith, of (Hidden, Iowa, told mo about the esse of Mrs. Thurston, of Oxford Junction, Iowa. This lady said she had been afflicted much the same as I had. She had consulted local physicians without relief, and had gone to Davenport for treatment. Giving up all hope of recovery, she was persuaded The by a friend to take Dr. Williams' rink Ihils. result was almost magical. “I was led to try them from her'experienoe, i and before many months X felt better than I had for a dozen rears. X am now almost i free from trouble, and if through some error of diet I fool badly, this splendid remedy sets mo right again. I have regained my strength and am onoe more in my usual flesh. I sleep well and can eat without distress. I have no doubt that I owe my recovery to Dr. Wii Uams* Pink rills, i" only wish that I had heard of them years ago, thereby saving myself ten rears of suffering and much 1 money.” Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain all the ele ments necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves.
