If some good Republican doesn’t watch out the President will appoint him to the Chinese mission. That job is almost ripe. And in this con nection it is understood that Hon. H. W. Blair, ot New Hampshire, is stir red to wrath by the very sight of fire crackers. Cvtorla is Dr. Samuel Pitcher’s prescription for Infants •nd Children.

This is the season when the news is telegraphed over the country that John Smith, a life-long Republican, has concluded to vote the Democratic ticket; or that William Jones, an ar dent free-trader, has comeout strongly for the principles of protection. These startling announcements are supposed to stampede the votes. Me. Powdebut severely criticizes Governor Pattison tor sending troops to Homestead and declares that “although this is not a Knight3 of Labor fight, he will proceed at once to Homestead if called upon.” He does not say what he will do when he gets there, but perhaps he will attempt an interview with Major-General Snow den.

At Charted, Russia, two girls who were friends fell m love with the same poring man. He was slow to mate his selection between them. They agreed that either could win him if delivered of the baneful competition of the other. They decided upon a duel by drawing lots. On the day following one of the young ladies was found dead in her room. She had poisoned herself with phosphorus. But her friend is broken down with sorrow and remorse. It is mire than likely that she will not live to enjoy the fruits of her victory.—Paris Letter. C. H, CAMFIELD * CO The Party Will Hare a .lUmliv Jin** meeting. It now seeras'that Thomas county if going to have a meeting that' will open .the eyes of some of the would-be- bosses of that county. A mass meeting was held there in Hay last which took a snap judgment :?n the good and true Democrats of he county, and certain members of the Republican Aid Society participat ed and took a very prominent part In the meeting. Ever since then the loyal party men have been protesting vigorously against such high-handded and outrageous methods. This sentiment has been steadyiy growing until now it is crystalizing Ad something may be heard to drop. The News and Advertiser receiv- el a telegram last night stating that a petition V. i:h alfeady 300 names was iag tlrct lated asking lor a meeting to be held on the 231 inst. From all Judications this meeting will be one of unusual interest and some spicy pro- ceedingK will be the result. L oek o'-,; for the meeting. The impecuidous admirers of pugil ism will hear with sadness that gen eral admission to the Sullivan-Corbett fight will cost $15, and that an addi tional $5 will be required to secure a seat. Sullivan, by the way, is report ed to be getting gray, and he is em phatic in his statement that this next battle is to be no Patti affair, but a genuine last appearance. Angles In New Telescopes, In the new form of telescope for stadia work spider lines are entirely omitted, and instead a prism is placed so as to cover one-half the objective of the tele scope, the consequence being that the rays passing tijrough the prism make an angle with the rays passing through the unobsenred half of the objective, and this angle is constant whatever the dis tance of the object observed.—New York Times. Prodaction of Portland Cement. Mr. Giron read before the Engineer’s clnb at Philadelphia a paper on the trade of the world in Portland cement, in the course of which he said that the present annual production in Europe amounts to over 20,000,000 barrels and its commer cial value to over £7,200,000. The first factory was established at Northfleet, on the Thames. The process was so crude that in 1850 only four factories were in operation. In England there is now over 8,300,000 barrels made each year. The process is much the 6ame as it was twenty years ago. The raw materials are chalk and clay, both pure, and al though inferion processes are employed they make a satisfactory cement. A few years ago the entire product of the kilns was put on.the market, but the fineness of the Continental cements led English makers to improve their pro cesses, although even now English ce ment is not ns a rule as firm as Geneva or French Portland.—New York Even ing Sun. Photographic Paper. Photographers were obliged until re cently to import from Germany the par per used in their work, our own manu facturers being unable to assemble the nacessary conditions of material water and workmanship for the production of paper suitable for silver printing. A procesa has now been perfected in this country whereby a very ordinary paper is coated with a thin surface of sulphate of barytes and answers admi rably for photographic use, bringing out in the finished picture a wealth of de tail formerly unknown injhe art, it be ing lost in the texture of the paper em- Dloyed.—Engineering Magazine.

If sc Idlers arc needed anywhere in these industrial times, they must be soldiers dressed in the uniform of the State, directed by men invested with public authority and with their country’s standard for their rallying point and ensign. Both Senate anil llcuse of Repre sentatives are preparing to investigate the whole Pinkerton business in a! aspects. "We greatly hope the whole unsavory truth may he brought f( light. Then, judging by what has al ready been said in Congress, we may expect that some stringent measure will ha adopted which shall put ai end forever to private armie- in thfr country-. In the present temper © public opinion no man and no com pany would be likely to invite the storm of public approbrium and de nunciation which would follow an ap peal to Pinkertons. But (he illegality ot such appeal should he declared in no uncertain tones, now while men’s minds are clear on the subject? We arc not denying one’s right to protect one’s own. But we are insist ing that this right shall not be carried to such length that it become s a wrong to others or a menace to public safety. When to protect one’s own an army is required, armed with Winchester rifles and Gatling guns, let the State be ap pealed to, let the State act; let the State, and the State only, be depended upon and be held responsible. There seems to be an apt illustra tion in the family of Cyrus W. Field that it requires only three generations for a family to go from the top to the bottom of the ladder, and vice verse. His distinguished father brought up a family of remarkable son3, of whom Cyrus was the most noted. His chil dren have been comparative failures. Three generations hence the excellent qualities ot the blood may again be made manifest.

The Idaho miners have gone so far in their career of violence that it is no longer possible for the authorities to eonsldar them in any other light than as outlaws. By using dynamite and' shotguns tor the purpose of enforcing their alleged rights, they have de stroyed their own liberty and jeopar dized the liberty of property. As a labor organs tion they began th3'law lessness, but as individuals they will have to answer for murder, arson and the malicious destruction of property. Two years ago five Alliancemen went to congress as Democrats from Georgia. Before they were good in their seats two of them went into the the Third party. The five subscribed to the same political dogmas. What assurrance have Georgia Democrats now that the three may not any day follow the example of the twq? The five were Ocalaites. The two followed that illusion to its logical end. The three have not done it yet, but may turn up in the Third party at any time. Under such conditions can Democrats agord to turn the three to Congress? Most assuredly not. Wig .Helens. Hon. R (ubeu J >nes, of Baker coon— ly, is growing some tremedoua melons.

Oce thing stems certain, says the Indianapolis, whatever else may come of the present labor troubles in and about Piittsburg. That is that Pinker- tonism has received its death blow. There bad long Keen a growing feel ing, often times vague aud indefinite— floating nebulous, so to say. in the popular consciousness—that the em ployment by private persons or cor porations of standing armies of mer cenary troops was not altogether con sistent with public policy. It needed only a tragic episode like that at Homestead—prepared for by Frick’s open c.ntempt of the State authority— to convert this feeling into a convic tion, fit finite, decisive. Papers and persons ot all classes and ot all shades of political or religious views are now agreed tnat Pinkertonism has no place iu a modern civilized community. It the State can not or nil! not pro tect property and person then govern ment tails in its principal obj ot aud we are face to face with anarchy.

If /was in a high priced restanrtafc Fhuy were discussing the character* in whioh Booth had been most successful, and the yonng man with a blond mus tache was satisfied that Hamlet was by far his best part. “If yon ever saw him in that part when he was at his best,’’ he said, “yon wouldn’t dispute the assertion for a mo> merit.' “Saw him!” exclaimed the man with the dark beard scornfully. “I've seen him in about everything ho ever played. Why, his Hamlet was poor compared with some of his other characters. His Othello was better than his Hamlet, and his Macbeth” “Macbeth!” broke in the yonng man with the blond mustache. “Why, that wasn’t up to Romeo, and that's saying a good deal. His Shylock was better than his Othello.” Every one in earshot was interested by this time, but just as the man with the dark beard was beginning a scathing retort with some side remarks about the “Fool's Revenge” the little fellow with the single eyeglass roused himself and said: “I sayl You’re both wrong, yon know.

We had moved into a newly built house, which had all the modern im provements, the electric bell being one of them.

Polly was also near the fire, but In the dining room, which was np stairs. She used to see our mistress ring the bell for the servants to enter, and, like a slaver bird, studied on this for a long while. On this night Polly was all alone, when suddenly the door opened and two men entered. The room, being dark they ootjfd not Bee the bird and began searching for valuables, for they were burglars. Polly now proved her worth. She put out her claw and pressed the button of the electric belL It brought the servants to the dining room, where, after a short straggle, they secured the burglars, who were about to make way with much of the valuable silver in £he dining room.

The Indians require to travel by themselves in a. separate saloon, and their meals and all refreshments must be served to them in the train at the stopping stations instead of their going to the buffets with the suite and the European servants. Special arrangements have also to be made for the Indians at the hotels, which cause much bother and considerable ex tra expense." Yet they have practically no duties and are perfectly useless ex- cent for show.—London Tit-Bits.
