The drill consisted of the manual of arms, company drill iu marching, wheeling, loading and firing, skirmish drill etc. All tbe move ments were executed with a precision which surprised and delighted the many spectators.

QUIRT STRUT* IR LORDOH Owing to tht Strike of thn Omni baa DrlTare Who Stand rirm. Low non, June 7.— The thoroughfares of London are strangelv silent today, owing to the strike of the omnibus drivers. There t» a plentiful supply of cabs, however. This morning saw ell the "bus yards" strongly guarded by police. About 20 v ebicies of the road car company and a few of the general omnibus company ventured out with "blackleg" drivers, but many of these drivers, after ixpertenoing the taunts and jeers of the strikers, abandoned he attempt after the first Journey. At 3 /dock In the afternoon the roed car com pany called in all the cars, leaving the traffic to the occasional “pirates," who cheered bv the strikers, did goed business at enhanced fares. The railways, river boats and cabs reaped the benefit of the strike. The strikers were generally orderly. At Charing Cross, in the presence of 2000 onlookers, John Burns stoutly resisted the violent attempts of a pofse of police to arrest him oo the top of a road car. where he was trying to persuade the police to interftre with the drivers without a. license. On the police desisting from vtolert efforts, Burns fallowed them quietly to the station, •here he was charged with intimidation. Some of the strikers cat the traces of two buses at Marble Arch, overturning them after inviting the passengers to descend. Three strikers concerned were arrested. The men have abandoned the demand for «n increase of wages for the preeent. The Koad Car Company is willing to concede to 12 hours, and it is probable tbit settlement will be effected tomorrow.

The inhabitants rushed into the streets in terror. At Mar cenigo three persons were killed, and at Madia and Cslavena seventeen were badly injured by falling houses and chimneys. At the latter place another shock was felt st six o’clock ihts morning and much addi tional dsmsge was done. The movements were undulating in character and more or lees over the whole of north Laly.

The appointment of x Governor Fob ter as Secretary of the Treasury was asserted by the bemovratic organs at the time it was made to be purely politi cal. Now*, remarks the New ork Press, these same organs are iust mak ing the discovery that it was financial as well a- political, and that the busy man of a flair* from Ohio has a capacity f*»r finance eijual to tint of any of Ids great predecessors.” Mr George K Powell, president of the National I armors' League, does not take stock in the third party movement. “A political party, lie says, organized with such antagonistic elements as man ifested their prcuence in the incinnali conference, and which do not represent the sentiments of the agricultural masses on many Important subjects—a party organized with a whoop—will hardly receive the enthusiastic support of the great body f intelligent farmer- of this Nation The losses by tiro in the United States during the month of May were more than double those f the corresponding month of lsuo, reaching an aggrega'* of $22,0*0,7 10. The decided excess over the average months is due to the losses by forest fires in New Jersey, Michigan, Wisconsin. Minnesota and Pennsylvania, aggregating #7,275,000. These forest lire* took in saw mills and in several instances small villages. Besides the great destruction of property many lives were lost. A recent visitor to Concord ran across an old man who claimed to have worked for Hawthorne, and who indulged In this bit of description of that author: "l could never get him to «ny anything till after J in the afternoon: he wa* writing and thinking about his boooks, you know, mcning* Why, lie'll go as near to me as that tree point ing to one three feet off) and never fee me mornings.

The developments in Kausas durieg the last few weeks do not make the out look for the People's pasty, or the Farmers* Alliance, so brilliant as it appeared to be a few months ago. Oce fact made plain is that the Democratic party Is going over in a botlv to the! People's party and will probably control it. This must result in making the organization obnoxious to the Repub licans, who have hitherto made up tiwj vast majority of its membership. Another fact is the adoption by the Republicans of the tactics of the Alli ance and the organization of the Knights of Reciprocity. The popu larity of this movement is al ready showing itself,aud it will undoubt edly bring back into the Repub lican party many who have strayed from it. The developments of the next twelve months will all be in favor of the Republicans and against the Demo cratic People's party. Among all that has been written or spoken concerning General Grant, there Is no truer analysis of his character, on •wore eloquent tribute to his public sei t- mure comprehensive summary of his great career than that A lion Chauaaty M. D*f*w la his addrds* at the unveiling of the Grant statue at Galena, III., on Wednesday. One easily sees from read mg it that the preparation of the address was no perfunctory service The ac complished orator evidently realized that he had a theme worthy of his best t Torts, and handled it a* one who felt the full weight of his words. la reading it one hardly knows which to admire most*, its masterly arrangement and exquisite literary finish of the artistic -kill by which the very spirit and essence of the subject tre condensed into so small a space. Asa literary performance the address will rank among the master piece* of English literature, and as an eloquent tribute to America's greatest soldier U ha* enduring historic value.

The value of expert statisticians and the importance of the array of facts ac cumulated through the agency of the modern system* of Bureaus of Labor Is well illu*trated by the following in stance which appears in the New York Press W« had a brief talk yesterday with Col. enroll f>. Wright, chief of th«‘ National Bureau of Statistics of Labor about the work of gathering sra t Utica which he ha* undertaken for the .Senate Finance Committee *l What the committee wants,” he said, “i* accurate statistics about prices for a period of years, in order to form opinion- a* to th** effect of the tariff law* on prices and wages The machin ery for gathering the statistic* which 1 have at command they have thought desirable to utilize, and I will get them the facts. They can form their own condusloni afterward. All the mem bers of the committee. Republics ns and f>emocrat«, protectionist* and free trad er*. are agreed on a desire to get the facts." They can only be obtained through national and *tate bureaus of -statistics, and the*e facts become of greater value and import ant e the longer the period of time over which tiny extend. Hence the value of continuing our own State department of statistic* or those of any other “tate. f>i«contlnued after a few years’ trial the results arc u*eles*; continued over a long scries of year* they become of Inestimable value and Importance. Surrender cf 'he I»eta The surrender of the Itata to the com mander of the United States squadron athjui'iue, yesterday, peacefully ferrui nated an affair, which might easily have resulted iu bloodshed.

The way to obtain the rights of nations as of individuals is to assert! them While it is fortunate that the Itata came into our possession again without a fight, it was the know!-1 edge that the United States meant to take her even if it had to tight that com- j polled her to surrender. letter from an officer on the Charleston shows that the cruiser, when she met*the Esmeralda at the mouth of: the harbor of Acapulco on the morning of May IS, was in thorough fighting trim. The decks were cleared for action, the big steel rifles and the mur d« rous little rapid tire guns were loaded, the six and eight inch shells were piled by the gun carriages, and officers and men were at their posts, alert and ready j for battle. The itata was supposed to be in the harbor, and the commander of j the Charleston proposed to take her if! he had to whip her champion, the Esmeralda to do it As it turned out the Chilian privateer was not at Acapulco. But if she had been it is evident that she would not have escaped. If the Esmeralda had shown tight the officers and crew of the Charleston would have worthily main tained the honor of the Stars and Stripes. The New York Press in com menting upon this event remarks: l* The administration deserves high credit for flic manly and patriotic stand it has taken in the matter. It is worth while to have a government with a backbone.” MAINE! O JBBIP. Caribou has just completed a handsome ret High Hcnool building at a cast of ■f 1000.

In his zeal for a grand Art ostook boom he was betrayed into making an indirect admission against his own party, and piylng an unquali fied tribute to the merit and Dene fit of this great Republican meas ure, at l-sa/st so far as it affects Aroostook's welfare. And the position of this g »od Democrat illustrates the tariff logic of lots of his fellows—in abstract theory free trade is the proper thiog but in practical app’ication they recognize and accept the valu« and benefit of protection. There are hundreds of Democrats in Aroostook who preach free trade, but they do not try tc bring it dot*n to its practical bearings on Aroostook interests.

Milking ‘“kirn cheese” is going to ruin American sales in foreign markets and in our own. Cheese is the most nutritious of all foods. One pound is worth more than two of flesh meat. The coarse wools are not “rustlers” like Merinos and cannot withstand so much inclement weather. Vaseline is excellent for removing warrs from cows’ teats.

Plant deep whenever you have spare time,and don't be afraid of overseeding. According to the commissioner of agriculture, the poultry products of the I'nited States la#t year had a farm value of at least $200,000,000, and no less than 1*‘»,000,1)00 dozen eggs were imported The duration of a raspberry planta tion depends upon the variety cultivated as well as upon the nature of the .soil and care given the plants. Ten to four teen years is about the average under good culture. This ripening process makes cheese more digestible and nutritious. The curing (refining the French call it) develops fat in the cheese. A well cured -kim milk cheese contains more digest ible nutriment than a fresh whole milk cheese. Professor Hunt of the Illinois Experi ment Station, in an address on the value of corn-fodder, gave the results of exper iments eoveriug two years; the verdict **f those experiments being that corn fodder. which includes the corn on the ar, was equal in value to the best timo thy hay. It is astonishing to see so many farm implements and machines left out around •he barn and in the fields, exposed to the weather. These tools cost considerable money, and they receive more injury while thus lying idle, but exposed to the weather, than they do from constant use on the farm. The American Agriculturalist advises when the oat crop does not promise well to he harvested in the usual way by reaping and binding, to cut it earlier the same as grass, rake up in light wind rows, and as soon as dry, stow away in the mow. This makes first-rate hay for cows and calves. I am very happy to state we are, I believe, through with boarding hired help. And what a deliverance! We have built a house and now hire a man and family, who board the extra hands, which makes a vast difference for the better. —Corr. Nebraska Farmer.

Cobbler ’•praguc’t Frugal Wife. Ten thousand dollars in gold and greenbacks has been found secreted in :'i old table in the residence of John Spr.igue, a shoemaker, of Wilmington, 1> i. The money represents his deceased wife's saving* for thirty-nine years. On Jan. 27 Mr*. Mary Sprague, wife of the cobbler, dropped dead, a victim of heart disease, in a drug store. The couple tine to Wilmington from England thir tv-one years ago. The husband is about -ixty years of age, while the wife was nearly fifty-nine years old when she died. They were frugal and industrious, and luring their thirty-nine years of married life the husband weekly gave the wife a certain sum of money for her use. He never questioned what she did with the -urplu*. but supposed it was regularly put in bank. When Mrs. Sprague died search was made for the bankbook suppubed to exist, but to no avail. The house was ransacked also, but no money was found. Finally Mr*. McGiuley, a neighbor, sug gested, as she had had a dream to that effect, that possibly the treasure might be secreted in an antique table, and this article of furniture was examined. Tightly wedged in an inside corner of the table were found a bag of gold and a roll of greenbacks, which, being counted, amounted to $10,000.—Cor. Philadelphia Record. Th« Tableau. The palmiest day of the tableau enter tainment lias rather gone by. Sacred and profane history, ancient and modem customs have lieeu faithfully worked for varieties in taSk-au representation and their freshness has pretty well departed. An entertainment of pretty and pictu resque scenes, unvaried by action or movement, is a somewhat mild form of amusement. For obvious reasons this kind of entertainment has had a long run of favor. Tableaux, represented by good folks that they all know, are some thing that the strictest church people can look upon without a feeling of sin, and a great deal of money for good causes lias been realized in this way. They flourish beat in home soil and pre sented by home talent and beauty, anil not a little* have they owed to the good natured puffs of amiable editors and the family pride which loves to see Sis on the stage in a fancy costume, looking as pretty as a peachtlow vase. —Springfield Homestead. Aoacdots of Lincoln. General Palmer of Chicago tells this story of Lincoln: “I was once called to Washington to see Mr. Linooln on a matter of business. It was in 18fi5. I was shown ir to an ante-room, and waited for some time. I saw senators and others going in, and fioally I was called. Mr Lincoln was being shaved. He said I was home folks, and he could shave before me. I said to him ‘Mr. Lincoln, if I bad supposed at the Chicago Conven tion that nominated you that we would have this terrible war I would never have thought of going down to a one-horse town and get tiDg a one-horse lawyer for President.’ I did rot know how he would take it, but rather expected an answer that I could laugh at Hut he brushed the barber to one eid and with a solemn face turn*d tome and said: ‘Neither would I, Palmer I don't believe any great man with a policy could bare saved the coun ty. If I have contributed to the saving of the country it was bt cause I attended to the duties of each day with the hope that when tomorrow cam I would beiqualto ‘he duties of that dayand he turned to the barber.” Value of Small Savings. Those who make fortunes at a single stroke are very few in n.wubvr. The only sure way to prosperity for the great major ity is the saving of small sunn. Just ss 1 ihe daily spending of small sums will soon dispose of a large bank account, so the daily saving of small sums so>n make a re spectable accumulation, although few seem to realize it.

A htrc**t fakir of the tineet type stood at tin* corner of the Bowery and a crops street, and addressed the attentive throng with all the rhetorical flourish of a United States senator. ••I was once a boy,*’ said he, ‘•with only two cents in my pocket, and I found myself here in this great city without a home and without a friend.

The favorite wedding season l>Hhig again with us, The Housekeeper's \V***-kly fur nishes some appropriate items about fash ionable customs, valuable to anyb*sly in teres ted either closely or in a remoter de gree in a prospective marriage ceremony: Brides sometimes have the left baud bare as they walk hi the altar, but usually the finger of the glove is ripped so as to receive the ring without removal. At the reception the bridal party stand under a bell or other appropriate Moral de vice, the horseshoe being a favorite eiu blem. The host and hostess—the parents of the bride—stand to receive with the bride groom and bride, and the ushers present each g’ -st as soon as the wraps have lieeu laid aside. After the guest has said some pleasant things to the parents and congratulated the newly married couple she relinquishes the usher's arm, and he returns to the door for other arrivals. The guest chats pleas autly a Little while with others, presently going into supper and afterward home. A reception usually lasts two hours, when the bride dona a traveling suit, the goodbys are said, and the happy pair are driven off amid a shower of rice. A wedding breakfast, which is eaten standing, may consist of many delicacies or be simple. Chicken and Lobster salad, boned turkey, *ealk>i**d oysters, ices, cr. am*, fruit, claret and coffee are often served. S* It is ustomarr for a newly wedded couple to semi out, after their marriage, can!* having the dat-,-of two or more reception day*at their .v home.

These spines are eery formidable weapons. When the porcu pine is molested it raises its quills and harks rapidly upon its enemy, who often finds it bv no means easy to avoid the on set of the n,raced animal. The wounds caused by the spines are sometimes very eerious. The quills, like all Imirs. are sited and renewed, and those that are about to lw shed are so loose that when they pierce the skin of any victim they often remain firmly fixed in the wound. Then by means of their structure they gradually work their way deeper and deep er iuto the tiesh. Sometimes one of these spines has been known to cause the death of the wounded auimal by finally pierc ing some vital part. Alt ENRAGED EORCCTINK. The porcupiue inhabit* many countries, such as southern Europe, Africa and In dia. Atmt her porcupine, called the Ursou, or Canadian lamrupiue, is found iu North America. It ts not so thickly armed with spines as the animal about which we have just been speakiug; for. except upon the tail, the quills are so deeply^buried among the long hair that they are scarcely visible. The tail, however, is closely set with short spines, and forms a very effective weapon, the animal striking it sharply against, any foe which may molest it. The urson is a very destructive auianal in its native for ests. It feeds upon the bark of tree*. Be ginning at the upper branches, it descends by degrees to the lower, until the tree is entirely stripped. Iu this manner great uumbers of trees are killed by these ani mals. _ llow Jane Studied Oram mar. It is apathetic sight to watch the me andering of the childish mind through the intricacies of English grammar. Kittle Jane had been repeatedly reproved for doing violence to the moods and tenses of the verb “to be." She would say “1 be” instead of “I am,” and for a time it would seem as if no one could prevent it. Finally Aunt Kate made a rule not to answer nu incorrect question, but to wait until it was corrected. One day the two sat together. Aunt Kate busy with em broidery, and little Jane over her dolls. Presently doll society became tedious, and the child’s attention was attracted to the embroidered frame. “Aunt Kate,” said she, “please tell me what that is going to lie." But Aunt Kate was counting and did not answer. Fatal word, 1m*! It was her old enemy, and to it alone could the child ascribe the silence that followed. “Aunt Kate,” she persist ed, with an honest attempt to correct her mistake, “please tell me what this Is going to am?” Still auntie sat silently counting, though her lip curled with amusement. Jane sighed, but made another patient effort. “Will you please tell me what there is going to are?” Aunt Jane count ed on, perhaps by this time actuated by a wicked desire to know what would come next. The little girl gathered her energies for one last and great effort, and said, “Aunt Kate, what am that going to are?” The Mosquitoes. What do 1 hear, Ke. ti, fo, fum?

It Prevent# Mortality by Imlm-iiig People to Seek Proper Advice. No one fails to send for a physician In typhus, yet only six persons in a million die of this disease since efforts were made to suppress it, says Dr. R. G. Ecclea in Popular Science Monthly. Four hundred aud twenty-eight in a million die of whoop ing cough because it seUlom frightens pa tients, and neighborly old ladies of both sexes give advice. Three hundred and forty-one in a million die of measles l»e cause it so frightens as to induce the friends to send for a doctor. Two hundred ami twenty-two in a million die of scarlet fever because medical advice is sought sooner and more implicitly obeyed. One hundred and sixty-eight in a million die of diph theria because it frightens more than most other diseases and iuduces people to send for a doctor quickly. Thus we may class diseases as more or less fatal as people are afraid of them ami seek proper advice to both prevent and cure. ltcauty as Means of Health. Dr. Louise F. Bryson, in an address lie fore one of the New York Working Girls’ clubs, summed up in a general way "the great secrets of lieauty and therefore of health,” as follows. Moderation in eating and drinking; short hours of labor and study; regularity in exercise, relaxation and rest; cleanliuess; equanimity of tem per aud equality of temperature. To be as good looking as possible and to be phys ically well one must in general be happy. And to be happy it is necessary to carry out ideas of personal taste and preference, as many of them can be put into defi nite form without infringing upon the rights of others. Happiness has a distinct aest hetic aud hygienic value. In itself it will secure perfect poise and respiration. To be happy is a duty just as style is a duty, and both are in ggpat measure an af fair of intellect and management. The old order put the cart before the horse; it said, “Be virtuous and you will be happy”—a rule with many exceptions. But tlie old order changeth. And the modern gospel postulates happiness and material prosper ity as the basis of morality. Other times, other manners. The ardent pursuit of good Looks sums up the best, there is in by giene and becomes a legitimate and praise worthy means of health. The world has yet room for two or three truths, of which not the least is the fact that the definite desire for personal beauty—which was iti the beginning, is now and ever shall be— constitutes in itself a perfectly proper and meritorious inspiration to effort, especially in a country where the shade* o Puritan ism linger as a sad inheritance, ml where disinterred Buddhism claims too ofteu the (rail neurasthenic for its own. A Delightful Perfume for the Hath. For the bath proper there is nothing like soap and water; but to do the dainty part afterward a writer in The World recom mends the following: Have your druggist mix for you 1 ox. tr. orris; 1 tr. benzoin, 10 drops oil of neroli and 10drops oil of lemon. To use this perfume add a tablespoonful of it to about a pint of warm water. It will t urn as white as milk and the real perfume will lie given off, whereas while in the bottle it has anything but a pleasing odor. Now, after your bath just take a -soft, doth and go over yourself with this milk, dry thor oughly and you will smell like a Imrich of violets. The perfume may he altered to suit you, or you may add any handkerchief extract, but don’t omit the benzoin, for that is what gives jiermanence to the jier fmne and softness and smoothness to the skin. A New Pm* for tlie Kuoilyptmm Tree. Parisian doctors are using creosote, or oil of smoke, math- from the eucalyptuV wood for the cure of consumption. The creosote cure, as it is called, is practiced by inhal ing air saturated with this substance. Its effect is said to clear the lungs, killing the germs of disease and allowing nature to perfect a cure. 1 MW Dama’a ttAX*A»A»n.i.A Un Haley’• Tooth and JCarache Pro pit. 8ore Cneenor27eod3nir*a Experience Has demonstrated that advertising in these columns is not an Experiment.
