Washing a Fine Art. Ever since spinning was a typo of womanly Industry, from ago to age it has been ex. parted that beautiful apparel should clothe women, To keep dainty belongings in good order it Is necessary to have them properly laundered. This Is especially true In tho laundering of pretty summer gowns, which Is ttow Quito a fine art. To do the work properly, All a tub two-thirds full of warm water, dissolve the fourth of a cake of Ivory Soap (which will not fade the most delicate colors,) odfi It to the water; wash tho articles through it, rinse first in clear ami then in blue water; wring, dip iu thin starch, shake out and hang on tho lino iu the shade. When dry, sprinkle and iron. (»owii9 thus laundored will retain their fresh¬ ness tho entire season. Eliza R. 1’akkes. High Speed On the Rail. The terrific -speed of seventy-five miles an hour is attained by the Brit¬ ish jails several times every day. The chief West Coast expresses from Lon¬ don to Scotland attain this speed twice en Shap, route; in once on the falling gradient at the wilds of Westmoreland, and once down the Beattock Bank, forty light miles from Carlisle. With a load and tail wind it is no un- common thing for one of these trains to travel at the rate of seventy-seven miles an hour. On the Great Northern Railway, if the conditions are favorable, the Man¬ chester and Scotch expresses will sometimes travel at seventy-seven or seventy-eight miles. According to Mr. Martin, the locomotive expert, the 2 o’clock special express from Manchester to Loudon recently at¬ tained a speed of 79.40 miles an hour. While these speeds are undoubtedly great for regular runs, it must be re¬ membered that the Journal’s special inauguration train ran a mile in thirty- two seconds, and several miles consec¬ utively at a gait under thirty-five. —New York Journal. Labor Uprisings in Russia. With the decline of Nihilism in Russia has come an uprising of labor. All the factory towns are having trouble now with striking workmen, and tho authorities are unable to cope with the difficulty. It is forbidden by law in Russia to form trades unions, but even Russian despotism cannot go to the extent of making a man work when he is not so inclined. The place of the walking delegate is taken by the labor disturbers, and the ignorant and oppressed workmen fol¬ low these men with singular faith and fidelity. Sixty of the preachers have been imprisoned and recommending are to be transported general to Siberia for a strike to the workmen. The Nihilists, Anarchists, andrevolutionary elements generally have been quick to recog¬ nize the power of the label- movement. They are working in every way and pos¬ sible to influence the workmen to make them believe that their only sal¬ vation lies in a general movement.— Foreign Letter. Coining Money For Abroad. The Philadelphia Mint has gone in¬ to the business of coining money for foreign countries. According to a recent statement of the mint during the month of May, 60,017 “10-colone” pieees were struck off for Costa Rica, in view of the recent adoption of the gold standard. The value of these pieces is estimated at $279,291.81 The total face value of the ooinuge of the United States for the month was— in gold, $4,486,950, and in silver, $1,600,000. Of this latter sum $200,- 000 was subsidiary coin. Six Costly Tilings. The biggest price for a painting was that paid for Meissonier’s ‘■‘1814.” M. Chancbard gave $170,000 for it. The most costly buildiug of modern times is that of the New York state capitol at Albany. Nineteen million six hundred thousand dollars have been spent on it. In 1892 I. Malcolm Forbes paid $150,000 to Senator Stan¬ ford for the horse Arion, making it th> most -yiluable equine the world has ever known. The most valuable book iu the world is a Hebrew Bible now in the Vatican. In 1512 Pope Julius II refnsed to sell it for its V weight in gold, which would amount 5 to about $103,000. The “Imperial” ^diamond is considered (he finest stone of its kind in the world. The Nizam j of Hyderabad offered $2,150,000, tbe 9 largest price ever known, for this dia- <j mond. The costliest meal ever served o')was a supper given by Eelius Verus to a a dozen guests. It is said to have cost $242,500. His Connection. Bannister, the comedian, was pre¬ sented to a proud old Scotch dame. “Who are the Bannisters?” she asked peevishly. ‘ ‘I do not recollect nieet- ing with them before.” “Madame,” replied the actor, gravely, “we are closely connected with the Stairs.” “Ah! there is a good and ancient fam¬ ily!” cried madame. “Mr. Bannister, I am delighted to make your acquaint- ance .”_Household Words. An Elephant and a Baby. At the circus parado in Middletown recently a small child on Broad street got away from its mother and toddled out in the street to see Jumbo. Before anyone could realize what the child was up to, it was directly in front of the herd of elephants. Everyone ex¬ pected to see tne little one crushed to death, but the leader of the herd care¬ fully picked the little one up with his trunk and swung her out of all dan- g er .— Hartford Courant.

Victims by the Than- MUtds-aUjr be Saved by Grace of God. . Text; "Woe unto them that sin, as it were i with a cart rope.”—Isaiah v„ 18. j I There are some Iniquities that only nibble at. the heart. After a lifetime of their work the man still stands upright, respected and honored. These vermin have not strength enough to gnaw through a man’s eharaeter. But there are other transgressions that lift themselves up to gigantic proportions and seize hold of a man and bind him with thongs forever. There are some iniquities that have such great emphasis of evil that he who commits them may be said to sin as with n cart rope. I suppose you know how they make a great rope. The stuff out of which it is fashioned is nothing but tow which you pull apart without any exertion of your fingers. This is spun into threads, any of which you could easily snap, but a great many of these threads are inter- wound—then you have a rope strong enough to bind an ox or hold a ship in a tempest. I of the of gambling. A speak to you sin cart rope in strength is that sin. and yet I wish more especially to draw your atten- tion to the small threads o! influence out of which that mighty iniquity is twisted, This crime is on the advance, so that it is well not only that fathers and brothers and sons be interested in such a discussion, but that wives and mothers and sisters and daughters look out lest their present home be sacrificed or their intended home be blasted. No man, no woman, can stand aloof from practical such a subject as this and say, “It has no bearing upon my life,” for there may bo in a short time in your history an experience in which you will And that the discussion involved three worlds—earth, heaven, hell. There are gambling establishments by the thousands. There are about 5000 professional gamb- lers. Out of all the gambling establish- ments bow many of them do you suppose profess to be honest? Ten—these ten pro- fessing to be honest becausethey are merely the antechamber to those that are aeknowi- edged fraudulent. There are first-class es- tablishments. You stop a little way out of Broadway, New York. You go up the mar- bio stairs. You ring the bell. The liveried servant introduces you. The walls are lav- endertinted. The mantels are of Vermont marble. The pictures are “Jephtbah’s Daughter” and Bore’s “Dante” and Virgil’s “Frozen Region of Hell,” a most appro- priate selection, this last, the for the place, There is the roulette table, finest, cost- liest. most exquisite piece of furniture in the United States. There is the banquet- ing room, where, free of charge to the guests, you may find the plate and viands and wines and cigars sumptuous beyond parallel. Then you come to the second class gambling establishment. To it you are introduced by a card through some “roper in.” Having entered, you must either gamble or fight. Sanded cards, dice loaded with quicksilver, poor drinks mixed with more poor drinks will soon help you to get rid of all your money to a tune in short meter with staccato passages. You wanted to see. You saw. The low villains of that place watch you as you come in. Does not the panther, squat in the grass, know a calf when she sees it? Wrangle not for your rights in that place, or your body will be thrown bloody into the street or dead into the river. Ymi go along a little farther and find the policy establishment. In that place you bet on numbers. “saddle;” Betting on two numbers is called a betting on three num- bers is called a “gig;” bettiug on four numbers is called a “horse,” and there are thousands of our young men leaping into that “saddle and mounting that “gig and behind that “horse” riding to perdi- tion. There is always one kind of sign on the door, “Exchange,” a most appropriate title for the door, for there in that room a mart exchanges health, peace and heaven for loss of health, loss of home, loss of fam- fly, loss of Immortal enough. souL Exchange sure enough and infinite Now you acknowledge that is a cart- rope of evil, but you want to know what are the small threads out of which it is made. There is in many a disposition to hazard. They feel a delight in walking danger. near a preeipice because of the sense of There are people who go upon Jungfrau, not for tlie largeness of the pros- peet. but for the feeling that they have should of thinking. “What would happen if I fall off?” There are persons who have their blood filliped and accelerated by skating very near an airhole. There are men who find a positive delight in driving within two inches of the edge of a bridge, It is this disposition to hazard that finds development in gaming practices. Here are $500. I may stake them. If I stake them, I may lose them, but I may win *5000. Whichever way it turns I have the excitement. Shuffle the cads. Lost! Heart thumps. Head dizzy. At it again—just to gratify this desire for hazard. Then there ate others who go into this sin through sheer desire for gain. It is es- peeiaily so with professional gamblers, They always keep cool. They never drink enough to unbalance their judgment. They do not see the dice so much as they see the dollar beyond the dice, and for that they watch as the spider in the web, looking as if dead until the ily passes. Thousands of young men in the hope of gain go into these practices. They say; “Well, my sal- ary is not enough to allow this luxury. I don't get enough from my store, office or shop. I ought to have finer apartments, I ought to have better wines. I ought to have more richly flavored cigars. I ought to lie able to entertain my friends more ex- pensively. I won’t stand this any longer, I can with one brilliant stroke make a for- tune. Now, here goes, principle or no principle, heaven or hell. Who cures?” When a young man makes up his mind to live beyond his income, satan has bought him out and out. and it is only a question of time when the goods are to he delivered, The thing is done. You may plant in the way ail the batteries of truth and right- eousuess: but man is bound to go on. When a man makes $1000 a year and spends $1200, when a young man makes $1500 and spends $1700, all the harpies of darkness cry out, "Ha! ha! we have him!” And they have. How to get the extra $500 or the extra $2000 is the question. He says; “Here is my friend who started out the other day with but little money, and in one night, so great was his luck, he rolled up hundreds and thousands of dollars. If he got it, why not 1? It is such dull work, this adding up of long lines of figures in the counting house, this pulling down of a hundred yards of goods and selling a rem- nant, this always waiting upon somebody else when I could put $100 on the ace and pick up $1000.” This sin works very insidiously. Other sins sound the drum, and flaunt the flag, and gather their recruits with wild huzza, but this marches its procession silence, of and pale vie- time in dead of night, the in when they drop into grave there is not so mueh sound as the click of dice. Oh, how many have gone down under iti Look at those men who were once highly pros- pered. Now their forehead is licked by a tongue of flame that will never go out. In their souls are plunged the beaks the which of will never be lifted. Swing open door that man’s heart and yon see a coil of ad- ders wriggling their indescribable horror until you turn away and hide your face and ask God to help you unadvertised. to forget it. The most of this evil is The community does not hear of it. Men de¬ frauded in gambling establishments are not fools enough to tell of it. Once in awhile, however, there is an exposure, as when in Boston the police swooped upon a gaming establishment and found in it the representatives of all classes of citizens, from the first merchants on KtatP street to the low Ann strwt MmWi-r: .'I H when Bullock, the cashier of tho Central Railroad of Georgia, was found to have Stolen S10H,000 for tho purpose of carrying on gambling practices, ns when a young K-n’nlanv e vears h ngo''was found" to "l.avo stolen *40.000 to carry on gaming practices; as when a man connected with a Wall street insurance eomuuny a.I - found to have <«<*<"■' -MOk.lKK) t ? curry ....

I believe tlnu one of the main f leading to this sewer of Iniquity is the ex- _ edtement of business life. Ts It not a sig- nlfleant fact that the majority of the day gambling houses in New York are in prox- Imltv to Wall street? Men go Into the ex¬ eltement of stock gambling, and from that they plunge into the gambling houses, as, when men are intoxicated, they go The into agi- a liquor saloon to get more drink. tntion that is witnessed In the stock market when the chair announced the word “Northwestern.” or “Port Wayne.” or "Rock Island.” or “New York Central.” and the rat. tat. tat. of the auctioneer's hammer, and the excitement, of making “corners.'’ and getting up “nools,” and “earryingstock.” anda“break” from eighty to seventy, and the excitement of rushing around in curbstone brokerage, and the sudden cries of “Buyer three!” Buyer ten!"

Before morning he |, a d lost all his money save $1. and he moved around about with that dollar in his hand, and after awhile, caught still more powerfully under the infernal infatuation, h e came up and put down the dollarand cried out until they heard him through the saloon “One thousand miles from home, and my last dollar on the gaming table.” Many years ago for sermouie purposes and in company with the chief of police of New York I visited one of the most brilliant gambling houses in that city, It was night, and as we came up in front all seemed dark. Tho blinds were down, the door was guarded, but after a whispering of the officer with the guard at the door we were admitted into the hall, and thenoe into the parlors, around one table finding eight or ten men in midlife, well dressed—all the work going on in silence, save the noise of the rattling “chips” on the gamingtable in one parlor and the revolving ball of the roulette table in thoother parlor. Some of these men, we were told, had served terms in prison, some were shipwrecked bankers and brokers and monev dealers, and some were going their first ‘rounds of vice—but all intent upon the table, as large or small fortunes moved uo and down before them, oh, there was something awfully solemn in the silence—the intense gaze, the sup- pressed emotions of the players. Noons looked up. They all had ‘money in the r api,ls. and I have no doubt some saw, as they sat there, horses and car- ' houses and lands, riages, and and home and family rushing down into the vortex. A man’s life would not have been worth a farthing in that pres- ence had he not been accompanied be' by the police if he had been observation. supposed to Some on of a Christian errand of these men went by private key. some went j n py careful introduction, some were taken in by the patrons of the estabiish- ment. The officer of the law told me, “None gets in here except by police man- date or by some letter of a patron.” While were there a voting man came in, put his money down on the roulette table and lost; put more money down on the roulette table and lost; put more money down on the roulette table and lost; then feeling in his pockets for more money, finding none, in severe silence he turned his back upon the scene and passed out. While we stood there men lost their property and lost their souls. Oh, merciless place! Not once in all the history of that gaming house has there been one word of sympathy uttered for the losers at the game, Sometimes these gift enterprises are car- ried on in the name of charity, and some of you remember at the close of our civil war how many gift enterprises were on foot, the proceeds to go to the orphans and widows of the soldiers and sailors. What did the men who had charge of those gift enterprises care for the orphans and widows? Why, they would have allowed them to freeze to death upon their steps, I have no faith in a charity which for the sake of relieving present suffering opens a gaping jaw that lias swallowed down so much of the virtue and good have principle nothing of the community.

The Legless Son of a Kansas Minister Rides a Wheel. Bicyclists -with but one leg are be- coming quite common, but a no-legged bicyclist is indeed a novelty, ouch a one is James Jump, the son of the j. ( , y _ Albert Jump, of Independence, Kan. Twelve years ago the boy lost both of bis legs in a railway accident. One of his legs was cut off close to the thigh and the other only a little lower down. On the stump of the latter he was able to fasten an artificial leg. Re¬ cently Mr. Jump became seized with a desire to ride a bicycle. He bad wit¬ nessed venturesome feats of one-legged cyclists, but he was in doubt about the ability of a boy with no legs at all to speak of to sit half astride a wheel and make it go. He bought a wheel, how¬ ever, and set about learning to ride. Leading his rubber-tired steed to the curbstone, he balanced himself on bis crutches and, with a side motion made "i ' / •m, Jr I! .* Wm '-2 s V *■> >1 li Lp*.

Fastening his crutch in a spring catch on the side where hia legs ought to be and putting his arti¬ ficial foot on the pedal, he was off. He soon mastered the art of balancing and can now ride at almost any com¬ mon speed he desires and can ascend and descend any ordinary-sized hill. SMALLEST HUMAN ATOM.

The Coroner of Liverpool, England, was called upon to hold an inquest on her diminutive body. This human atom was born in Glasgow, Scotland, about three weeks ago.

She was being ex¬ hibited in Liverpool, the parents re¬ ceiving £3 10s. for showing and at¬ tending her. The child weighed only twenty ounces at the time of her death and was just a foot high. The palm of her hand was not as large as a silver twenty-five-cent piece. Her feet were no larger tliau an ordinary man’s thumb. The parents disclaimed any desire to limit the growth of the mid¬ get. The little one had been guarded from cold, was well-nurtured and had never had a day’s illness until the day it died. The jury returned a verdict that the child diedfrom natural causes.

The great mechanical difficulty of getting the building materials to the top of this rock must have been vastly increased by tbe peril of overbalancing tbe buge mass and bringing it crashing down upon the plain like an avalanche. There is another temple in Burmah similarly situated. The Value of Electrical Vlantft. Few persons realize the enormous amount of money which is invested in electrical plants of various sorts. Over 100,000,000 of dollars are invested in electrical machinery used in mining. Electric elevatorB employ about fifteen millions more. Electric railways rep¬ resent about one billion dollars. This does not include the money now being used in the manufacture of electrical machinery. FACTS AND FIGURES. The first solid-head pin was made in England in 1824 by air American, Lemuel \V. Wright. The San Francisco board of health has ordered the carpet beating estab¬ lishments out of the city. The population of many South Sea islands manufacture their entire suits from the products of the palm times. The brewers of Great Britain con¬ sume annually about 70,000 tons of sugar in the manufacture of beer and malt liquors. Over 17,000 different kinds of but¬ tons have been found in pictures of mediaeval clothing. Southeastern Europe now has mil¬ lions of people who are far less ad¬ vanced than the Japanese. The fasest flowing river in the world is the Sutlej, in British India, with a descent of 12,000 feet in 180 miles. The Plymouth brethren, now having their annual gathering at Plainfield, N. J., are worshiping without a creed. The population of Dublin has de¬ creased within the last forty years from 261,000 to 245,000. One inch of rain falling upon one square mile is equivalent to about 17,- 500,000 gallons of water.
