Kennwlu, /{oiulout, X. V.:— Dear Hik: Lntll recently I have been tor three years a sufferer from 'alt Kheurn. It followed apon an attack of Erysipelas, fo which I was for a long time under medical treatment. I placed myself again in the hands of the physicians who did, I have no doubt, all that could oe done. One thing is sure, however, I was no e the better for all the medicine they gave me. The painful and unsightly disease made continual progress, until I begun to tear I should never get rid ot It. By means of one of those accidents that ofli n re •ult In so much blessing I had my attention failed to your FAVORITE REMEDY, which I was told would •nreh do me grod.

The lime for the Harvard-Colum bia freshman raee was set for half pa«t ten, this morning. At that hour the boats were at the starling point, which was the two mile flag off the naval station. For some reason, now not known, the crews were kept there fully an hour before the start was made. The word “go” was given at 11.15. Both crews took water simultaneously, with little or no splarliing, Harvard rowing forty strokes to Columbia’s ilurly. Both crews kept aide by side for one hundred yards, when Har vard drew slowly shead, increasing her lead to the finish. Harvard made the first half mile in 2 minutes. 54 second* and was rowing a 34 stroke; Columbia in 8 minutes. 9 sec onds with a 38 stroke. Each crew struck up a 40 stroke and Har vard finished the mile in 5 :67 Columbia in 6:22j. Both crews made strong spurts. Harvard reached the mile and a half iu 8 :5Ti and Columbia in 9:37.

Hark will be put up for public bidding, all hough they hear only 2 1-2 per rent, yet several applications have been made already. The affection of the soldiers lor General Grant is shown whenever his name is mentioned at their gaiherings. The Port land meeting of verterans has afforded them many opportunities to show their love for the dying hero. The arrival at Fort Pitt of the prisoners held by Big Bear practically ends the half breed rebellion in the Dominion. The troops wlli pursue the Indian* no further, but leave them to tie subdued bv hunger. Although the fighting ia thus happily over, the Canadian authorities are bv no mean* through with the matter. Kiel is to be disposed of. and the causes of half breed discontent are to be removed. The ITiladelphia Pres* says: The fear and imagination of excitable individuals have spread the fever epidemic which is now dying out at Plymouth over a large extent of territory and to include many far distant communities. There is no evi dence to warrant such rumors. The towns and cities in the Wyoming Valley adjacent to the afflicted borough are in reasonably good health. The typhoid epidemic at Plymouth was entirely local in its origin, and it was confined within the limit of the distribution of the poison. Spain not only has the cholera badly, but is suffering with a crisis in (lovorn ment affairs. The disease gains constant ly. the people tight against sanitary meas ures, the ministers resign because the King wants to visit the infected districts, and in the Cortes the government is at tacked becau ie a mob is tired upon bv soldiers. The whole situation illustrates the difficulties of governing an ignorant people on the principles of a constitution al monarchy. They don’t know enough to distinguish where their responsibilities begin. or where those of the rulers leave off. The sinking of the dredger in the Suez Canal caused a blockade which could not bo raised lor two weeks, though doubtless the most oncrgetic efforts were made to clear the chanel. During that time over a hundred steamers were detained at the mouths of the canal, ot course at a very heavy expense both direct and indirect. This Incident proves that if a hostile power chose to sink half a dozen vessels at differ ent points along the canal, it might be rendered useless for several weeks at least, and the most import^ht consequen ces might result to England from such a sudden and prolonged stoppage of her communnioations with India. The complaints of no business on the part of stock commission brokers are as loud as ever. The daily transactions at the different stock exchanges are no index to the real business. Most of the recorded purchases and sales are "washes"—that is.prearranged transactions between brok ers selected for the work by the leaders These operations set the price, without the danger of any loss. The dullness stimulates the broker.whose profits should consist of commissions on real transac tions.to "scalp" the market for a fraction, which is not only dangerous for men with small capita), but demoralizes the opera tor and injures the real buyer or seller, jnst as any fictitious trade does. A change in the condition ol affairs which will bring real activity is earnestly looked for by commission houses. It is probable that the troops stationed in the far West will have an abundance of work this summer among the Indians. Geronimo is trying to excite the Mescalero Apaches in New Mexico to rebellion, the Southern Cheyennes are putting on war paint, and there are indications of serious trouble among the Utes in Southeastern Colorado. The cowboys near the Southern Ute Reservation have killed six Indians, and the Utes have killed at least two white men. The cowboys declare that the Indians committed the first of the murders, but the Indians and their agent assert that the cowboys began the fight by killing Indians who were not on the reservation. The cattlemen ot Colorado would like to drive the Utes out of the State, and like other settlers in that region they have been enraged by Ute unchecked raid of Geronimo anil his followers. The Bell Telephone monopoly is not yet secure in the possession of its immensely profitable privilege*. The decisions of the oourts have thus far sustained the va liditr of the patents it owns, bat there *«yide°« of devices for transmitting speech bjr elec tricity, and the temptation to assail the greet monopoly is strong, tor any rival corporation Which succeeded in establish* lug its right to use the chief tele phone devices would thus open 1 np for itself the opportunity to make a great deal of money. The suit now in progress in Pittsburg in which the Bell Company seeks to drive the Western Pennsvlvsoia Company oat of the business will (iirnish a new judicial test of the dis* puted validity of the patents controlled by the Bell Company. The interest of the people in this suit lies In the fact that the charges made for service by the present telephone monopoly are outrageously high. The loss of a suit like that it has j beerun in Pittsburg might or might not; i bring some relief. A Stubborn Polygamist. Salt Labe Citt. Utah, June 22 —On Sat urday Char,ea L. White waa arreated charged with unlawful cohabitation, and had a par tial examination before United Statea Com miaaioner McKay. Hia polygamoua wife, a mere child, waa aaked by the proaecution if ahe waa married to the defendant. She de clined to anawer that and all othpr queationa, and waa fined $50 and impriaoned until thia morning for contempt.

M. to-morrow, and in default of $2,000 bail White waa aent to jail. An Eccentric Man’s Fuu. For aeveral daya the engineera and train-men on the New York.

The Waste* ot the Houeehold. While the well-known “tring that a French family could live with elegance on what an American housewife throws away, is frequently illustrated in families where waste can be ill afforded. It is also true that in eight cases out f ten this relega tion of cold bits to the offal pail or ash barrel is not caused so much bv extrava gance a* by the lack of knowledge of how to dispose of them in any other way. The dainty utilization of scraps is a subject that well repay* the thoughtful study ot any house, and even the least original cook can often “evolve from her inner consciousness an appetizing dish from cold fragments that at first sight ap pear utterly unpromising. In this mat ter. however, the mistress must generally depend upon her own brains. Few hire lings have the keen interest in their em ployers’ welfare that would urge them to save a couple of pennies here or five or six there. Fewer still, with the best in dentions in the world, know how to do it. or appreciate that It is in the minor econo mies that true saving consists. Another dainty dish, which appeared upon a friend’s table, was formed from even less promising materials. Her din ner the day belore had been a stuffed chicken boiled with rice. Kxaminatinn of the pantry revealed I he carcass of the fowl, with one leg attached to it. and a coupleof spoonfuls of the cold rice. Noth ing'daunlod. however, the valiant house keeper advanced to the charge, and with the aid rtf a small, sharp knife, removed more meat from the hones than one would at first belloved possible. This was cut— not chopped—in small pieces and set aside with the rice and half of the dressing, while ihe bones, the rest of the slutting and a little minced onion were put over the fire in two cups of cold water. When a slow, steady simmer of a couple of hours had reduced this one-half, it was cooled, strained, skimmed and slightly thickened with brown flour; then returned to the fire with the fragments of meat, rice, etc., brought to a boil, poured over erustlcss squates of tried bread laid in a hot platter, and garnished with parsley. The result was a savory salnti, whose scrappy origin no one would have suspected. What difference does it make if* those seraps of cold bacon Ihft from breakfast are summarily disposed of in the swill barrel, or if that bit of corned beef—too small to appenr upon the table again—is conferred upon the first basket beggar who presents himselfP And if these es cape that late from the extra conscientious ness of the housekeeper, they are loo of ten converted into the ubiquitous hash. Hear how one careful housewife disposed of similar remnants: To the corned beef and bacon minced fine, she added halt as mueh cold mashed potato, one raw egg, a little chopped onion and parsley, and with eroqueites made of these rolled in flour and fried lo nice dripping, provided an appetizing dish that was quite sufficient, when accompanied by stewed potatoes and bread and butter, to make a lunch lor three people. Homo ClmracterH at the KxpoMtlon From an illustrated paper on the New Orleans Kxpoaltlon.by Kugene V. Smaller,in the June Century, we quote the lollowing anecdotra of some of the types aeon at the fair: “The odd characters at the fair are the terror of exhibitors. A Cincinnati furniture maker discovered a countrymen trom Arkan aaa whittling a handsome mahogany cabinet, ‘to see what the wood waa like.' The man's knowledge of furniture waa evidently limited to articles which could not he damaged by a reasonable use of a jat k-knife. Another ex hibitor, who had up a room with the finest specimens of Ilia art. waa horrified to find an old ladv rating her lunch of fried chicken seated in one of hia satin upholstered chairs. ■What's the cheer good for If it ain't to set down in?' ahe placidly remarked, in reply to hia earnest request that ahe would go aome where else with her vitnala. The Same ex hibitor one day found that some visitor to hia alcoves had left a token of approval on the polished surface of a costly mantle, in the words 'This is pretty good' scratched with a knife. “The Turks who sell olive-wood, beads, and other trinkets ‘from Jetnanlem'—all made in Paris—-are picturesque additions to the permanent personnel of the fair, though their genuineness, like that of their wares, will not always bear inspection. An amus ing scene occurred one day at one of thea" Oriental hsxaara. A tall mail, with a rural air, stopped before the stand and appeared to take a lively interest, not in the goods, hut in the A'anrea of one of the salesmen in scarlet for and hsggv trousers, lie surveyed the Oriental in front and in profile, and then, slapping him on the shoulder, exclaimed, ‘Hello, Jake, when did you come from Indi ana?'

IT Wim EXPLOIT I was a telegraph operator stationed in the little town of Deering. upon the line of the Pacific Railroad, between the cilios of D_ and G-—. Six miles further west was the more pretentious town of Paris, upon the direct road to D-. Deering was by no means a model resi dence. Still there was a school, and a little blue-eyed woman bad come from V- rmont to teach it. How long an un woman might have lived in I let-ring I can only guess, for Alice Holt had been there but three months when she consented to walk into church with me and walk oot my wife. This was in July, and we had occupied a pretty cottage nearly a quarter of a mile from the tele graph station since our marriage. With this necessary introduction I come to the story of that October night, and the part my blue-eyed Alice, only eighteen and afraid ot her own shadow, played in it. I was in tbe office at about bair past seven o'clock, when one of the city officials came in. all hurried, saving: ••Stirling, have you been over to the embankment on tbe road to day “No. I have not.” Ii w»» a special Providence took mo there, then. One of the great masses of rock has rolled down directly across the track It will be as dark as a wolfs mouth to-night, and if the midnight train comes from I)-there will be a horrible smashup _ “The midnight train must stop at Parts, then.” I replied. "I will send a mes sage.” “Yes. That is what I stopped in for. The other track is clear, so you need not stop the train to D-.” “All right, sir.” I was standing at the door, seeing my caller down the rickety staircase, when Alice came up with my supper. “Any messages to-day my wife asked. ••One from D-for John Martin.” -John Martin?” Alice cried; “the greatest ruffian in Deering. What was the message P” "Midnight train.” “Was tnat all P” “That was all. Mr. Hill has just been in here to tell me there is a huge rock across the track at the embankment, so I shall stop the midnight train at Paris.” She went into the dressing room, taking no light, but depending upon the candles timing in the office. I was rising from my seat to send the telegram, when the door opened and four ol the worst charac ters in Deering, led by John Martin, en tered the room. Before I could speak, two threw me back in my chair, one held a revolver to my head, and John Martin spoke: “Mr. Hill was here to tell you to stop the D-train. You will not send that message. Listen. That rock is there to stop that train—put there for that purpose. There is half a million in gold in the ex press car. Do you understand I trembled for Alice. Not a sound came from the little room, as I was tied hand and foot to my chair, bound so securely that 1 could not move. It was proposed to gag me, but finally concluding that my cries, it I made any, could not be heard, a handkerchief was hound over my mouth. The door of the wash room was closed and locked. Alice still undiscovered, then the light was blown out and the ruffians left me, locking the door after them. There was a long silence. Outside I could hear the step ot one of the men pac ing up and down, watching. I rubbed my head against the wall behind me, and succeeded in gettirg the handkerchief on my mouth to fall around my neck. I had scarcely accomplished this when there was a tap on the inner door. ••Robert,” Alice said. “Yes. love. Speak low, there is a man under mv window.” “I am going to Paris. There is no man under my window, and I can get out there. I have six long roller towels here knotted together, and 1 have cut my white skirt into wide strips to join them. The rope made so reaches nearly to the ground. I shall fasten it to the door knob and let myself down. It will not take long to reach home, saddle Selim and reach Paris in time. Don't fear lor me. Nine o'clook! As the bell of the church clock ceased to strike, a rumble, a flash, told me that a thunder storm was coming rapidly. Oh, the long, long minutes of the next hour. Ten o'clock. The rain falling in torrents, the thunder pealing, the lightning flashing. Aliee was so j afraid of lightning Eleven o'clock The j storm over, though still the night was inky black. The midnight down train was coming j swiftly, surely, to certain destruction I Where was my wife? Had the ruffians intercepted her at the cottage Was she lying dead somewhere upon the wild road P Her heroism was of no avail, but was her life svaed In the agony of that question the approaching rumble ol the train was far more than the bitterness ot 1 Alice lost in the horror of the doomed lives it cnrried. Whv had I let her start upon her mad errand The heavy train rumbled past the tele graph office. It was an express train, and did not stop at Deering station but as I listened, every sense shapened by mental torture, it seemed to me that the speed slackened. Listening intently, I knew that it stopped at the embankment, as nearly as,I could judge. Not with the sickening crash.I expected, not preceding wails and groans from the injured pas sengers. but carefully. A moment more and I heard the shouts, the crack of fire arms, sounds of some conflict What could it all mean The minutes i were hours, till I heard a key turn in the door of my prison, and a momeet later two tender arms were round my neck, and Alice was whispering in my ear: "They will come in a few minutes, love, hi set you free!” "Hut have you been to Paris "Yes. dear.” "In all that storm?” "Selim seemed to understand. He car ried me switUy and surely. I was well 1 wrapped in mv waterproof cloak and hood. When I reached Paris the train had not come from I) "But it is here.” Only the locomotive and one car. In that car was a sheriff, deputy sheriff and tweDty men. armed to the teeth, to capture the gang at the embankment. I came, too, and they lowered me from the platform when the speed slackened, so that I could i tun here and tell you all was safe.” While we spoke my wife's fingers had first untied the handkerchief around my neck, and then, in the dark, found some of knots of the cord binding me. But I was still tied fast and strong, when there was a rush of many feet upon the staircase, and, in another moment, light and joyful voices. “We’ve captured the whole nine,” was the good news. “Three, including John Martin, are desperately wounded, but the surprise was perfect. Jfow, old fellow, for yon r, A dozen claspkniras at once severed my bond*, and a dozen hamtt were extended in creeling. As for the praise ahowered upon ay plucky little wife, it would re quire a volume to tell half of them. A Trap to Caleb aSaabeaa. Our house stands “square with the world,” and points due south. This is ex tremely sati-facft ry to the members of the family who occupy the front rooms, but the rest of u« are compelled to live in the shade the larger par', of every day, and we languish in the shade. Sunshine is absolutely indispensable to our mental and moral well being. My room is in the north-east comer and you will sav, at once that I have the sun until noon and ought to be content with it for half the day. leaving the north-west comer to en joy it the rest of the dav. That shows bow little you know about the sun. In the first plai-e, the window is very near the south comer of the room and when the sun is due east it would, only shine across the north side. Then, as the glori ous orb makes his first appearance above the horizon in winter a long distance south of east and is such an uncomfortably ear ly riser in summer, that I can’t possibly take advantage of his earlier beams, it happens that the most I can see of him in mv room is a rapid.diagonal retreat along the northern wall. Moreover, the wall of the house is ten or twelve inches thick, the window not more than thirty inches wide, and if you can explain to me how the son beams, the straightest things that ever flv.can find their way from the south, when* the suu is supposed to be at noon, through such an opening in a wall turned flatly toward (be orient, you have discov ered some law ot straight lines and flat surface that is not commonly known. Can anything be more exasperating to a lover of sunshine than a room like this, and is there any cure tor it Of course there is a cure for such a room. There is a cure for every earthly ill, if we can only find it. That is what we are on the earth for. To paraphrase an old saying “set a rogue to catch a rogue,” you must use one law to break another. A straight line is, indeed, the appointed course of a sunbeam, but if you can manage the laws of reflection and refraction, you can turn (hem in any direc tion you please. You can turn the sun Irom his course much more easily than an ordinary honest man—not to mention Kabrieus—from the path of rectitude. If your east window has a substantial blind, hinged at its northern edge, you have half the work accomplished. Get a common, cheap mirror as large as the blind itsell. it you can afford it. and fasten it securely to the inside, protecting the top and sides by a rubber strip, a leather band, or a lead Hashing. Secure the blind at an an gle of about ninety degrees with the win dow. and you will find the sun. instead of rising in the east and moving around tow ard jie south, will rise it, the south and move gradually toward the north, shining farther and farther into the room, until about half alter eleven, when it will pass out of sight. That is one ot the suns, tor you will have two while they last, one shining straight in from the sity. the other straight Irom the mirror, one moving from left to right, the other irom right to left, and you will scarcely be able to tell which is the brighter.— Good Housekeep ing. German Military Punishments. In room arrest the offender is confined to his own quarters. He is not allowed to leave them without permission, nor to re ceive visitors. When arrest is enforced against Captains or subalterns, a particu lar ro >m may be set apart for the purpose, but in this event it is called severe room arrest, and is a .judicial, not a disciplinary punishment. During room arrest, as dur ing all similar restrictions on liberty, the offending officer can neither carry arms nor wear any decorations which he may possess. When, however, he has obtained permission to leave his room he is allowed to carry his sword. When an officer is sentenced to room arrest his sword is re ceived bv another and delivered over to the governor or commandant of the fort; in simple room arrest, however, a superi or officer exercising the least disciplinary power receives and retains his arms. This dutv usually falls to the adjutant, but it he be not present the arms may remain in the house or apartments of the offender. In simple room arrest the officer is again confined to his own residence, and is not allowed to receive visitors. If| however. Ip occupy a house in common with other people he may mix with them as usual. A married man, therefore, is not separated from his family,while the visits of his doc tor are always allowed. Any doubtful points are decided by a superior officer, who in urgent cases may permit access to a few persons. Open-air exercise is usu ally allowed after the first 14 days’ con finement, but if his doctor declare such exercise to be essential to health before that time the arrested officer is permitted to leave his house for an hour daily under the supervision of an equal or superior in rank. The attention of every officer sen tenced to simple room arrest is directed by a superior to a regulation in the Militar Strafgesetzbuch. which says: “Any officer who during room arrest shall leave his quarters on his own responsibility will be punished with six months’ imprisonment and dismissed from service. Any officer who during room arrest shall receive a visit on his own responsibility will be punished with six months’ imprisonment and in serious cases with dismissal from service." These laws are founded on the idea that we should be able to relv on the officer implieity to obey regulations for the maintenance of discipline. If he do not he betrays a sacred trust and sets an i example to interiors in rank which must have the worst possible effects. The Army and Navy Quarterly. INVESTMENTS.
