Hours Consumed iu Dilatory Motions and Appeals lathered by Mr. Springer, of Illinois. The Voting Attended -with Some Excite ment postmasters Nominated for Guthrie and Oklahoma City Con ferees on the Silver Bill Hold a Meeting Capital Notes- WAsniXGTOX, July 2. The house resum ed consideration of the federal election bill, the pending question being on the imendment offered by Mr. Tucker, of Vir ginia, requiring the judge of circuit court (associated -with the district judge) to pass upon application for supervisors of elec tion. Mr. Tucker's amendment was rejected. Mr. Howell, of Illinois, offered an amend ment making it the duty of the circuit judges in each circuit within one month after the passage of this act to a open a special term of the circuit court in their respective circuits, and said judges shall appoint for each judicial district three dis creet persons of good character and stand ing, who shall be known as the "Tinted States juror commissioners. It shall be the duty of such commissioners to organize as a board and from time to time make from the qualified voters a list of persons who under the laws of the United States and of the state shall be liable for juror duty without respect to race or color. Hereafter all panels for jurors shall bo drawn by the board in the presence of a district or cir cuit judge. Mr. Kowell's amendment was agreed to on a vote of tellers 146 to 14li. The yeas and nays were demanded. The amendment was adopted yeas 150, najs 144. Mr. Hemphill offered an amendment to section 32 of the hill to insert the words "except section 1,9S9 of the revised statutes of the United States." He explained that that section of the bill empowered the su pervisors to use the army and navy at the polls and the purpose of his amendment was to eliminate that provi&ion. Mr. McKinley then addressed the house. It was said that the bill would bo expen sive, that it would cost millions of dollars. That assumed that 15.T0 districts of the country would invoke the operation of the law and there was not a man who did not know that not one hundred districts would invoke its operation. Let him re mind gentlemen that they would diminish the cost of the administration of the law in the ratio in which they diminished fraudulent voting, false counting, oaiioc-Dox stumng and suppression of votes. Republican applause. It would cost nothing if thoro was no need for it. God put no nation in suprome place which would not do supreme duty applause. God kept no nation in supreme place which would not perform the supremo duty of the hour applause. This was the supreme duty of the nation, to enforce the constitution Bud laws of the United Suites. Let gentlemen on the other side obe them as the Republicans obeyed theiu, for he told them that the people of the north would not permit two votes in the south to co'iut as much as five votes in the north. Republican applause, Mr. McMillin, of Tennessee, said that the leader of the house had seen lit to keep silent until the question arose as to whether or not troops should besent to the polls. Since the praetorian guards had proclaimed that the Roman world would be sold at auction there had never been presented so sad a spectacle as that pre sented by the representatives of the free American people, coming hero and declaring that they wero willing to go voluntarily under despot ism. Democratic applause. The old ship of state was to be scuttled on the anniversary-of her first sailing. The gentle man had said that the north would not tolerate the counting in the south; the time had come when there could not be in the American republic an enslaved south nud a free north. Democratic applause. The Republicans might, like madmen, grasp the pillar of the constitution and pull down the edifice, but like Samson, they would perish iu the wreck. Demo cratic applause. Mr. Perkins, of Kansas made an elo quent plea in favor of the bill. The hour of 2 o'clock having arrived, the speaker declared the previous question ordered on the bill and pending amend ment. Mr. Springer moved to laythe bill on the table. Lost yeas 14S, nays 15G. The vote then recurred" on Mr. Hemp hill's amendment (relative to the use of troops at the polls) and it was rejected yeas 145, nay l.6. Mr. Springer, having voted in the nega tive for that purpose, moved to reconsider. The motion to reconsider was tabled yeas 154, nays 14S. Mr. Springer moved to lay the bill upon the table, stating that his former motion was to table the bill and pending amend ment. The speaker ruled the motion out of order. Mr. Springer appealed and the appeal wa.- laid on the table yens ir$, nays 140. Mr. Springer, having voted in the allirui ative, moved a reconsideration. Mr. urosvenor, of Ohio, made the point of t rder that this was a dilatory motion, a point which was sustained by tho speaker. Mr. Springer appealed, but the speaker declined to entertain the appeal. Mr. Springer protested that this was the first time in the history of the government t hat a motion to reconsider was not recog nized, but his voice was drowned in calls for the regular order from the Republican side. Mr. Springer moved to adjourn lost veas 147. nsivs 157. The bill was ordered engrossed-and read a third time by a vote of veas 155, nays 14P. Mr. Hemphill, of South Carolina, moved to recommit the bill. Lost yeas 143. nays 156. Mr. Coleman and Mr. Lehlbach voted with Democrats in the affirmative. Mr. Springer (having voted in the nega tive! moved a reconsideration. The motion to reconsider was tabled yeas 156, nays 149. Mr. Onthwnite moved an adjournment, which motion the speaker ruled out as dilatory. Mr. Springer demanded the reading of the engrossed bill, but the speaker was prepared for this demand, the bill having been engrossed in advance and a burst of applause came from the Republican side when the clerk began the reading. Two hours were consumed in reading. The question then recurred on the passage of the bill. As the call was in pro gress "the greatest interest was manifest ed on both sides of the house. As Mr. Coleman, of Louisiana, cast his vote with the Democrats he was greeted with ap plause from that side of the house and the applause was renewed and reinforced with cheers when Mr. Lehlbach, of New Jersey, also cast his vote against the measure. The Republicans retaliated in kind and as the southern Republicans, Mcsrs. Houk, Taylor of Tennessee, Waddell, Mudd of Maryland, and Wilson of Ken tucky, recorded their votes in the affirma tive, cheer after cheer was given. The bill was passed yeas 155, nays 149. The house then at 9:25 adjourned. THE DAY IN THE SENATE. Washington, July 2. Mr. Plumb, from the committee on public lands, reported the senate bill to provide for the delivery of land patents to their rightful owners and asked for its immediate consideration. The bill was then passed. It directs the secretary of the interior to send the re corder of deeds in each city in which lands so patented lie, lists of the land patents in Luao uounty tnac nave Deen in the general land office uncalled for for twelve months. Hiscock called up his motion to re consider the vote by which the senate yes terday refused to recede from the amend ments to the legislative appropriation bill, in reference to the pay of senators, clerks and sessional committee clerks. The mo tion was agreed to yeas 26, nays 21. After debate the senate receded from the amendments and the legislative bill now goes to tho president for his signature. The senate then proceeded to the consid eration of the two senate bills reported from the committee on commerce to place the American merchant marine engaged in the foreign trade upon an equality with that of other nations and to promote com merce. Mr. Frye spoke as to both bills, which he favored. He thought $6,000,000 a year would revive the dead body of the Ameri can merchant marine and keep it on the ocean. He argued at length for protec tion to American shins, either bv bounties or subsidies. The presiding officer (Mr. Ingalls) an nounced his signature to the Idaho bill, which had previously received the signa ture of the speaker of the house. Mr. Vest addressed the senate in opposi tion to the subsidy bills. Mr. Vest yielded the floor, without con cluding his speech, and Mr. Frye said that he hoped to have the senate act tomorrow on both bills as he intended to call up the river and harbor bill on Monday. After a short executive session the sen ate adjourned. THE NEW STATES. Washington, July 2. The bill ad mitting to the union the territory of Idaho passed the senate in exactly the shape it came from the house. The "Wyoming bill is now before the house, the senate having attached a slight amendment. This bill will be called up in the house tomorrow aud unanimous consent asked that the senate amendment bo concurred in. It is the intention of those who have this meas ure in charge to get both in readiness to besent to the president not later than Thursday as President Harrison is desir ous of attaching his signature to these two bills upon the Fourth of July. petitioned bt the women. The national American "Woman Suffrage association, through Jane Stafford, its treasurer.aud the National "Woman's Chris tian Temperance union, through Ada "W. Bittenbeeder, its superintendent of legisla tion and petition, called upon the president today and asked him to sign the lull pro viding for the admission of tho state of "Wyoming into the union on the Fourth of July. The Wyoming bill provides for political equality without distinction of sex, and the advocates say that they desire to celebrate the Fourth of July in honor of this beginning of a true republic in con nection with with the events with which the day is already regarded. Both the "Wyoming and Idaho bills were sent to Cape May Point, where the president will spend the Fourth. THE FIFTH BOARD. Town Site Trustees for East Guthrie Additional Instructions. Washington, July 2. The secretary of the interior today appointed the fifth board of town site trustees for Oklahoma. The members are Ed F Wellington, of Rochester, X. Y.; Burt AY. Day. of Hutch inson, Minn., and James W." Walton, of Conway, Ark. The last named member is a Democrat; the other two are Republi cans. They will bo .assigned to East Guthrie. The secretary will issue additional in structions to the town sito trustees, or rather, call particular attention to certain matters in the former instructions which seem to be misunderstood. An im pression prevails in the territory that the towns will be required to bear the expenses of the contests; this is not true, however, for the expense of contest will fall upon the individuals involved and not upon tho towns. The secretary will call attention to a requirement that contestants must show priority of residence before entering the contest against an occupant of lands or lots. This matter, of course, will bo left for the land office to finally determine, but contestants will save themselves much troublo and expense and avoid chance of defeat by abandoning contests where priority of residence is not clearly in their favor.

Tho conferees on the silver bill met this morninc and spent an hour in discussing the differences be tween the two houses. They separated at noon, having come to no conclusion. They will meet again tomorrow mo'ning. The house conferees brought to the meeting a copy of the bill as it passed that body and this formed the basis of whatever discus sion took place. A great portion of the time was spent in general talk on the sub ject with no definite propositions about them. The conference is said to have been satisfactory in its tone and tendency to the members. LONGEVITY CLAIMS DISALLOWED. Washington. July 2. The second comp troller of ths treasury made a ruling to day adverse to the claims of several thou sand army officers aggregating $2.500,ft. These wen? claims for longevity pay for service either at the military academy or as enlisted men based on the decision of tho suprome court in the Watson case. He disallows all of the claims and holds gen erally that in every case where a treasury settlement has been made in which errors were made in longevity payments might have been corrected no matter what the form of of claim may have been, sad settlement is now closed so far. at least, as the accounting officers are concerned. WILL GO TO CAPE MAY. Washington. July 2. The president will leave here tomorrow morningfor Cape Maj unless something unforeseen should require a change in his plans. N. A DOMINATION EASILY MADE -AT SCRANT0N. The ex-Governor Named by Democrats to Head the Ticket. the Everything His Own "Way from the Start A Mild Eecognition of Silver in the Plank. Snmner Elects a Congressional Delegation Solid for Hubbard Eumors that ex- Secretary Whitney May Control Tammany and Name the Dem ocratic Candidate in 1892 Political Items, SCRANTON, Pa., July 2. It was 10:30 when Chairman Kisner called the state Democratic convention to order and in structed Secretary Mead to read the call. After the reading of the call the secretary called the roll of delegates. The roll call ran along smoothly enough until Blair county was reached. There is a contest in that county and the Pattison men were placed on the roll. When they were read Mr. Landis, one of the contestants, de manded to be heard. He said the men whose names had been read were not the delegates from Blair. Chairman Kisner instantly called him to order. inen followed a scene of excitement. Tho galleries hissed and yelled "Let him talk;" the other contestants demanded "fair play" in loud and angry voices. Chairman Kisner pounded with his gavel. He finally obtained order and got the Blair man in his seat and then said that the con test from Blair county would go to tho committee on credentials where it be longed. After this outbreak the roll call ran along smoothly to the end, there being only occasional outbursts of applause for some well known delegates. There were a number of substitutes and at the close Chairman Kisner announced that tho election of a temporary chairman was in order. Mr. Coxe was greeted enthusiastic ally and after being introduced briefly thanked the convention for the honor con ferred on liim. It was then decided that all resolutions should be referred to the committee on resolutions without debate. A committee on credentials was made up and the com mittee appointed was conceded to be con trolled by the Pattison people. The com mittees on resolutions and permanent or ganization were then appointed and tho convention took a recess until 2 p. m. Pattison's chances for the nomination for governor at that time seemed to bo growing stronger. The galleries shouted the greater preference to him. The Wal lace party gave up their claim of 105 votes on the first ballot", but claimed the field will be stronger than Pattison. Tho platform among other things de clared: That, the election laws should be so changed as to eliminate the marked bal lot clause, so as to secure secrecy of ballot and freedom to the voter; that tariff re form is necessary so that manufacturers may have free raw materials, and that la borers may be relieved from tax upon nec essaries of life. "That we recur with pride to ex-President Cleveland's administration and challenge comparison; that we favor sucli coinage of silver as will Keep both gold and silver in circulation or treasury notes redeemable in the same. That we denounce unequal apportionments of dis trict for election of representatives in congress. "We accept tho issue of Quay ism tendered by the Republican conven tion; we denounce the dictatorship of Speaker Reed." The Republican party is denounced for open disregard of the civil service law, for faithlessness to the soldiers, for ceaseless efforts to promote sectional strife, its lavish expenditure of public money, for passaue through the house of the MeKinley bill, for the attempt to pass a federal election law, and finally and especially its indiffer ence to the rights of labor. Alter the recess tne committee on con tested seats made their report, giving Pat tison a majority of the disputed votes. Ex-Postmaster Harrity was elected per manent chairman, which was also a Patti son victory. Ex-Governor Pattison was nominated for governor on the first ballot. Chauncey F. Black was nominated for lieutenant governor and William R. Bark ley, of Pittsburg, secretary of internal af fairs. Governor Pattison addressed the conven tion and adjournment was made. NEW BOSS FOR TAMMANY. Report That Ex-Secretary "Whitney is to Succeed Oroker. New Yomc. July 2. There was an explo sion in Tammany hall today which has al most caused the hair on the scalps that hang in the wigwam to stand on end after the manner of the fretful porcupine. It was a report that Boss Croker is to retire and Ross Whitney is to take his place. It is said that a private consultation was held a few days acco at which Mayor Grant. Commissioner Thomas F. Gil roy, Police Commissioner James J. Martin. Roswell P. Flower aud several lesser lights of the wigwam put their heads together and decided to have an other "boss." and that ex-Secretary of the Navy William C. Whitney was the choice. Mr. "Whitney is not a meml)er of the Tam many Hall organization. If Mr. Whitney, with Tammany, combines against the gov ernor, he can not secure an undivided delegation from ew "iork to the next presidential convention. If Mr. Whitney, with Tammany, makes a fight for Cleve land, he can obtain a sufficient number of delegates to overcome the objection that Cleveland is not potent in hi own state. Whatever Mr. Whitney's purpose is he knows himself alone. Of the new arrangement one of the oracles who would talk s-r.d: "Mr Whitney does not desire to control Tammany jn its minor manipulations. He will leave that to the subordinates, for such things are too trifling for his atten tion; but he will control it tirt for the commercial interests which he represents and must protect, and next for thoe Greater political relations which are to be eveloped in the near future. What he will do with Tammany in respect to the governorship, the seaatorship and the presidential nomination remains to be seen. Under his direction, if Tammnny hall makes a combination in the .state else where against Governor Hill that man's day is over.5' A number of prominent Tammany lead ers were interviewed in regard to the new program, but all insisted that the story was a fabrication.

The Coney Island Meeting Closed with Interest "Winners. Sheepshead Bat, July 2. The Coney Island Jockey club brought the most suc cessful spring meeting of its history to a close today. The fourth race was the event of the day. Fourth race Tho realization stakes for 3-year old, all starters to pay $250, all of which to go to second and third horses as further presided, the Coney Island Jockey club to add S10,000, the second to receive $2,000 and the added money and two-thirds of starting money, the third $1,000 of the added money and one-third of the starting money, colts to carry 122 pounds, fillies and geldings 119, allowances one mile fur longs.

Tournament was made the favorite, with Palisado second choice and Torso and Banquet next in demand. When they got the flag Tournament at once ran out and at end of a furlong was a length before Banquet with Palisade third. At the half mile post Tournament had increased his lead to three lengths and Banquet had three lengths tho best of Pa dishah, while the others were be ginning to string out. Her Highness moved from fourth in making the turn and at the end of the three-quarters was in the third place, only a neck behind Ban quet. Tournament in the mean time had opened up a gap of four lengths and was fast getting away from the rest. At tho mile post Tournament was eight lengths in the lead. After the stretch was reached Tourna ment increased his lead further and further and simply galloping passed the post a winner by three lengths. The only interest in the race was the length for second money. Banquet moved up rapidly in tho stretch and at the furlong pole was on even terms with Her Highness.

A PROMISING OUTLOOK. Chicago, 111., July 2. Western railroads are looking forward to another year of con tinued prosperity. Business was never better with them than it is at the present moment. All the roads running to the northwest, west .and southwest have more business than they can promptly attend to. and the amount transacted by them has a tendency to increase, though hereto fore there has been usually a falling off at this season of the year. It is ex pected that the present prosperity will continue unabated for twelve months to come. Reports from all portfons of tho corn growing belt but especially from the Kansas section, say that there is every prospect of an unprece dented crop. In the west corn is king and an abundant supply of it will stimulate all kinds of trafhe. The live stock business is also likely to be immense and crops gen erally with the exception perhaps of winter wheat in some sections, will be fully up to tue average. Should western rates be restored, as is possible, the earnings of all the western roads would show very material gains and the holders of railroad securities would bo firmer than ever in their assertions that the western roads have a bright future be fore them and will continue more and more to increase their dividend paying power. At present the outlook is a very promising one. WILL NEED AMERICAN GRAIN. England's Crop This Year Will Be Un usually Poor. London, July 2. England is likely to need all the cereals that America can send her this year, for continued wet weather and cold, blighting winds are rapidly de stroying our own crop. Hay is rotting on the ground, wheat is getting mildewed, the fields are being turned into ponds and nothing is ripening. As for fruit, nearly all we get comes, like most other things, from abroad. We are more and more dependent on foreign supplies for provisions and delicacies of every kind. Ever year makes the prospect worse and worse for the English farmer. Fortune seemed likely to be more favora ble the present season, but rain set in and the goon prospect has rapidly changed. Since the beginning of June the country has been wrapped in gloom The absence of summer is also dealing a heavy blow to trade of all kinds, especially among the West End shop. At the large and fash ionable milliner, much patronized by American visitor, the shutters might as well be put up. London is fuJ of Ameri cans and rural excursions end in the ex cursionists getting drenched. They are flying in despair to Paris, where the weath er is not much better, though the amuse ments are THE CROP CONDITIONS. Chicago, III.. July 2. The following will appear in this week's Parmer's Re view: As a rule crop conditions have improv ed in the states covered by our report. This improvement is in most cases due to i neavv rainiau accompanieo. oy not weatn er. Rain has fallen in Nebraska, but many counties in that state are still suffer ing from drouth. Parts of Kansas, Mis souri and Illinois are getting dry. Spring wheat in South Dakota has greatly im proved and is now up to the usual average condition.

The Kickapoos Eefuse to Accept the Offers Hade to Them Features of the Proposition Th9 Tribe Hard to Deal With Minor Notes and "Western Gossip. Ottawa, Kan., July 2. The original package war has commenced. Today the signal was given to the citizens committee of one hundred that tho Missouri agent was loading up his packages which had been stored ten days in the depot. In less than five minutes every one m the secret mustered at the rented building. When the wagon drove up to the back door tho driver was quietly asked to take it back to the depot. He refused and while he va having an altercation with some citizens his horse was unyoked and the wagon and tho stuff fun off to the depot by citizens. On the way the wagon broke down, but another was along side and tho packages wero transferred iu two min utes. Labels were ready and without de lay they were shipped back to the senders. A second shipment from the same Kan sas City firm lies at the Missouri Pacific depot which the committee has a watch on. The agents here talk of repleving the goods.

Atchison, Kan., July 2. The Missouri Pacific attorn eys have list completed the consolidation of the St. Louis Emporia railroad company and the Interstate rail road company under the title of the Inter state railway company. The consolidation owns a line of road from Butler. Rates count', Mo., to Madison, Greenwood coun ty, Kan., a distance of 101 miles. This road as originally built, was a series of links constructed by the two original eom- Eanies, the track of neither eing continuous but in alternate sections of a few miles of each. On account of this tangle it was found difficult to dispose of a proposed block of bonds, and a consolidation was agreed upon. The road is the property of the Missouri Pacific, and will probably be extended from Madison to Emporia. The Interstate is to be consolidated as a part of the Mis souri Pacific system, together with other Missouri Pacific branches, under an act of the Kansas legislature adopted in 18&5, as soon as certain complications of the Fort Scott Wichita are adjusted. Kansas is full of short lines owned by the Missouri Pacific, and it is proposed to unite them as a part ol tne parent road. P00E LO'S BLDtDNESS. The Kickapoo3 Decline the Government's Offer. Kickapoo Village, I. T., July 2. The commission laid the proposition before the Kickapoo Indians this morning. The main features are as follows; Each Indian has an allotment of eighty acres; each In dian over IS selects his own land. The parent of each Indian under IS makes the selection for him. The Indians on the reservation make the selection for orphans under l1. Eight acres may be reserved for school, hospital or government purposes. Sections 18 and 36 shall be reserved for school purposes. This throws open to settlement 18.000 acres of good land. The tribe is to receive ftM.OoO per capita. The allotment is to be made within four months after the allot ting agent is on the reservation. At a parley held at 3 o'clock, the Kicka poos retused to sign the contract. The Kickapoos may be classed with the blanket Indians. They retain all their t ticence and obstinacy and have an aversion to anything but the tribal relatione This will render treatiujc with them a more diffi cult task than in the case of the civilized and semi-civilized tribes.

Once npon a time the Queen of all the "Flours," whose name was Imperial, gave a luncheon to her subject-. When all were seated at the banquet table some of the "low grades" became envious of the queen's charms and popularity and cried out "We are as good as Imperial." The royal court messenger, Prince Tally-Ho, arrived at that moment in his coach aad proclaimed the verdict of the people: "Im perial is supreme. Long live Imperial." Then the low bread rebels made rye faces and said "Our cake is douch; we knead no more. Long live Imperial." 15 tf Two "Ways of Looking at It. Duff Gruff has made a big fortune, I Bluff Yes.

Into the store of a Boston stationer one day there came a man in the dre3s of a workingman, who was evidently at once a foreigner and not overgif ted with brilliancy of intellect. Ho made up to ono of the clerks, and with an air of hesitation, as if doubtful whether he had como to tho right place, asked in broken English for some "over alls." "Those you will find at the clothing stora just down the street,' the clerk said. The customer looked puzzled. "I did gone there," he said, "and did re quest them .for envelopes, and here is it that they do send me." The clerk was quick enough to see where the trouble lay, and good natured enough to explain to the foreigner the differenca between envelopes for letters and envelopes for the legs of laborers, and the man went back to the clothing store, where, no doubt, he found what ho -wanted.

Tha Physiognomy of a Timepiece Have a Kegular Hour for Winding Tho Watcli Caso Record How a Man Sent n Valentino to His Son. In a jewelry Btoro not a thousand miles from tho City hall the -watch department is in charge of a pleasant faced, good na tured man, whoso weight mubt be close to 200 pounds. Among his other duties is that of winding watches, and this is a duty which has to be attended to on Sun days as well as other days. It is his custom to look after tho finer grades of watches, particularly when they are being regulated, vrith especial care, and he says that a good watch ought to bo -wound about tin same time in each twenty-four horns. THE "WrSIJEB'fl rOR lr Jjusrie in the habit of winding yonr tvatch out 10-o'dock or U o'clock every night," ho remarked in conversation tho other afternoon, l'if rou are wibe you will not leave it uniil 1 or 2 o'clock on tho nights now and then when you happen to be up so late. Always "wind it within tho Epaco of one hour in tho twenty-four that Is, if j-our average time is half-past 10, mako it a rulo to wind it regularly between 10 and 11; but tho nearer you keep it to a cartam definite time the better. Of course it is impossible for me always to wind all of the laxgo number of watches here in tho store on tho micuto every day. But with tho best -watches I try hard to bo very reg ular. When I come down hero on Sunday forenoons of course I am wholly undis turbed, and I am able to get through tho work in about two hours. On other days I am very likely to bo called away by tho demands of customers, so that it may bo 2 or 3 o'clock in tho afternoon before I am able to complete this part of my day's regular-duty. But it is always tbe cheaper and less trustworthy watches that I leavo to the last. "Do you know that there is something singular about what I may call the physi ognomy of a watch? A good many peoplo will cotno-here that I don't recognise- at all, but tho moment I look at their watches I recognize tiiem, and in that way I am ablo to identify their owners. I have not a good memory for faces, but I krow watches from tho ward go, and though it may seem singular to you that tho inside of a watch should convey- a moro definite idea to my mind than a hmnan face, it is really not .singular at all. I have made a life long study of -watches, and it-is tho easiest thing in the world to remember how tho inside of one watch varies from that of another. Of-couTho anybody could see tlie-differenco where they are made by different (people or ere of difTercnfcdzeH. But I have, in par ticular, to remember how tho regulators stand. H a- customer has his watch regu lated and then comes hero a few-weeks or a few months .afterward to have it touched "up-agam, unless I remember just how far I moved the regulator tho last time I might easily botch tho whole job. So there are many ways in which I difCcrentiato one person's watch frpm another, though I couldn't point theia out in detail Any moro than a mother of twins that look just aliko to the casual observer can tell precisely -fay sbc has never any diiliculty in telling ono from tho other. HOW HE OET3 DOME. "I said that I didn't havo a good memory foracca. Let mo teE you another thing. I havo an excellent idea of "locality, and if I had onco been in a place I behove that I should recognize -it-again if I wore suddenly dropped into it blindfolded and thon had my eyes uncovered. Now, you may find it hard to builcvc, but it id an actual fact that I do not know the number of my own hoiuc It happens to be tho third in tho row, and in that way I novor havo any difll cuity In finding it. How would it bo, you est, if it -were tho seventeenth in a long row of houses all alike? No, I should not count up to seventeen every time in that case, but I should choose uomo landmark oa which I conld depend, such as a troe or a lamppost and tako -ray bsariugs from that. On last St. TaIenfcineJjday I wanted to send a valontinoto'ono of my-boys, and would yon boliovo it? I actually had to go to the book hqro in, tho store in which tho addresses of ifik tho-cmployes arekept in order to find oat whero I lived. lam afraid if I wero-eaShxl s a witness in court, and nuiot ablo to tell my street number, the judge and tho jury -would not havo much confidence' in. my testimony; and I shouldn't biamo-tbuxn, cither. But what I havo told you js.anxstnolact. Spcakmg of regulating watches onco moro, thero kyuToeout simple deuce -which makes it.mucb casierfoT tho watchmaker than it nsod to bo. It ismerdy a circular piece of paper madolarjjur or-smallcr so as just to-fit the Inside ofwatclycases of dif ferent sizes. It is -divided -Jiito columns for datcs-andother entries, so-as to show the conditianpf the watch at tho'time tho en try is made; A-n Oipdicntes that the watch has been regulated; a star shores that it had run down amlxad been s-ft going again. An,I indicates 'right,' and that no change-is ntHjded. A plus tngn shows that the wateh runs too fast, and a minus sign that it gofisoo slow, and the number of seconds entered Ju tho next column shows tho rate of Joss or gain pirr day. A charac ter Jike -a V turned upsido down indicates 'set.' This 'watch caso record,' as it is called, is a great convenience to us nnd it causes no trouble to the ownor of tho watch in which- it is placed. Instead of having to-go to- our books to find one how a watch was running tho lafc time -n e saw it, the record is right under our eyes, and if the man whoe .special business it is to look alter the rrgnhiting of watches hap pens to be out, his assfotant knows pretty w ell what is needod. So if a man goes to another city and has occasion to consult a watchmaker, the latter can get on speak ing terms with a new watch, so to say. in very short order."

Chicago Saturday Herald. Characteristics of a Popular Man. A popular man-is one whoso clothes are always in good style and look welL but are not offensively fashionable or aggres sivcly now. A popular man is the one who shakes hands with the-inquirer after the family of the waiter, who buys an apple from tha woman on the corner and pays-her fiva cents more'than she charges for it. A popular man is the ono that doesn't forget that you have a pretty wife, and when ho is talking about women and speaking about somebody who is good looking, says: "But she doesn't compare with your wife, John." A popular manisono who will listen to a talc of woo from a woman 45 years of age, not mind her crying, pat her on tho shoulder and advise her to be "a good girl." A popnlar man is one who sends your baby a birthday present, who remembers you when ho has a couple of theatre tickets he-doesn't want, and who speaks to you no matter how shabby you look, or who ho mayJbo with. A popular man is 'the concentrated es sence of sympathy. Ho has a smilo for everybody's joy and wordsof condolence for everybody's sorrow. Feel it? It doesnt matter whether he feels it or not, my friend; it's manners make the man and, moro than anpother, the popular man- New York.Letter. Some 1'orei-jn Stamps. At present tho.

This Victoria stamp for 10 ster ling is the highest denomination used for postal service in tho world. It carried gold dust from Melbourne to Paris. The West Australian stamps havo a swan as their prevailingdus3gn, you perceive. Tho round hole punched through that ono-in.the cor ner of tho page means that tho letter it was attached o was mailed by a convict. That is- tho way in which all f ho stamps on convicts' letters aro canceled in that part of the world. These pretty stamps with tho design of a dragon in a fit are Shanghai. Heligoland ia tho only country that prints the denominations on itsstamps In two languages English and Gorraun. ilost East Indian state use the British government stamp, printing the name of the state over each one. Cashmere prints 1 its stamps in water colors from ivory and i you observe that the tints run pretty bad- ly.

It is not known-why a barber in cutting hair will, after caoh clip at the hair, con tinue to snap Tho shears in his customer's ear from bis. to ten times before making tho next cut. The practice is not a very pleasant one to nervous persons, but I sup pose it goes-with tho trado. We will put up with it rather than return to the old stylo of hair cutting as practiced on chil dren, usually by their parents, which was by placinc; a bowl over the hoad and then cutting all the hair that extended below the edge of it.

New York World. Tho Stamp Collecting. Craze. "Grown up people, instead of boys, have within the past few years monopolized the business of collecting postage stamps," said a dealerin such merchandise the other day. "Tho craze has also become ever so much more elaborate. For example, a col lector is no longer satisfied necessarily with one stamp o akind. It may bo that the same stamp hasJbeen issued on more than one "kind of paper, and in that case one of each sort must-be secured. Suppose the government of Heligoland gets out a two cent stamp this year on 'wove' paper and next year prints the same stamp on 'laid' paper, the collector must have both varieties or else spend nights of sleepless grief over the vacancy in his album. It frequently happens, too, that tho samo stamp will be issued with different sorts of perforations at the edges. One edition of it will havo perforations liko those of Mr. Wanamaker's stamps; another will have what aro called 'pin perforations;' another will have 'rolleted' edges, like a theatre coupon, for .tearing purposes, while still another will havo no sort of perforation or other convenience for tearing whatever. But all theso varieties must be in tho col lector's possession." Washington Post. Advantage of Running. Tho long distance runners, however, seem to bo-tho most rational in their cholco of sport. In this thero appears to bo a real benefit. Emergencies may arise at any time in a man's life when he must get to ono place from another in as short a time as possible; then the man wno has accus tomed himself -to going long distances sce3 the value of his choice. Sprinting is of little value in,such a caso, and fast walk ing does not flnter-into it. In connection with the long distance run ning, which is-so steadily growing into fa vor, has come -the organization of outing clubs and a rapid increaso in the number of cross country runs. Where, a few years ago, but a dozen men could bo found to take part in these, now there aro hundreds. Every Sunday, when tho weuther istfavor able, the different athletic clubs havo a practico run, and there are many out for a ten or fifteen mile-spin over (ho fields and hills, through bush and briar. Charles P. Sawyer in Scribner's. A Mother's Wail. The dead of Cagliari, Sardinia, are buried in a bright cemetery. "It' is an ordered thicket of geraniums, in endless bloom," writes an English tourist; "and from the sr.lendorjjeerfosth tho white marble tombs and the black crosses which pay tribute to the dead under the Cowers." Tho visitor sees that tho-mortality among the children, of tho city is very great, and reads with aching heart the wails of tho mothers recorded upon the monumental marble. On one monument is carved the figure of a little boy of three, seated in his nursery chair, with a toy loose in his hand, and his head upon one side, as if he were asleep. The mother's convulsive sigh is heard as Lhe epitaph is read: "Naughty one! Why do you not: awake?"

ANNIE ISABEL WILLIS INTERVIEWS THE AUTOCRAT. What Wo Has to Say of "The Opening of the Phmo" He Is Xot in Love with the Autograph Hnnte "Dr. Merry man" in the flesh, Special Correspondence. Boston, Jane 19. Armed with a let ter of introduction to the-"Autocxat of the Breakfast Table," I went ono sunny afternoon to his home on Beacon street. The letter was given -to him as he sat at lunch, and oon a maid came into the reception room, where-twomen-were do ing some decorating andvarranging, ts request themrto leavo theexoom-for aiew minutes, 'because the doctor's coming in here," she said, and heistone implied that he could not on any account be looked at by them. The mon.withdrew, and in a momenta little white haired, pleasant -faced man enteredand bow ing said with a smile, "Will you come up to my 6tndyf' Pleased at tho prospect of seeing this famous workshop of brains I followed Pr. Holmes up one flight off 6tairs and through folding doors into a spacious room, whose entire side opposite the door seemed-filled by a -large- bay win dow. It -was -a charming study. Dr. Homos was in an after luncheon mood, and he talked pleasantly to me not much, but humorously and epigram matically. In reply to questions about his poems he Eaid but little. When asked if tho incident recorded in "The Opening of the Piano" were true he laughed and said: "We all lie some times, but that was so. Tho piano was a 'Clementi' selected by Dr. G-. K. Jack son, a famous musician of the day. The incident of tho little girl, Catherine, was true." And he added: "I remember the smell of the mastic varnish to this day. The memory of smells, you know, never dies." He had alluded 'to it in the poem speaking of: When the wondrous box was opened that had coaao from, over eafl, With its smell of mastic varnish and its flash ot ivory keys. The story is a pretty one. The "dem enti" piano had just arrived and been un boxed, and Tho children all grew fretful in the restlessness of 3oy when their mother asked her daughter to play, and soon Floating from lip and Anger arose the "Vesper hymn A neighbor's child heard tho music and crept up to the pen-door. Just as the "Jubilate" in threaded -whisper dla "Open it I open it, ladyl" the little maiden cries (For she thonghttwns a-singing creature caged In a box she heard) "Open it! open it, lady! and let me see the birdl" Dr. Holmes thinks that'Grandm oth er's Story of tho Battle of i Bunker Hill" is ono of tho -best- of his descriptive pieces. 'The Aviary," too, ho regards as a pretty good thing in the way of de scription. Then, lest ho should be thought praising his own works, he added, "Nobody understands a poem as its-author, and nobody cares for it half aa much. So when a father bays he likes his baby bo.doesnt' mean that it ia the finest baby -that ever was." Dr. Holmes4s.an honorary member of the class of '87, Wellesley college, and visited the college several times. He spoke warmly of tho institution, saying that it was "a,deUglrtfnl occasion to see so many young'womerr grow -up to tho full statnro of womhaihood." Ho was especiaHy.fltruckwith' thtbotanical and chemical departments ?and their com pleteness of apparatus, as well as with the library prospects. But tho sight which mo3t-interested him was what he termed-tho "village of ttrnnks upstairs. The hundreds of trunks belonging to fac ulty and students in the main college building are stored .durmg term time in long lofts on its fifth-floor. The boards of tho -roof lop& down oa cither sido and the trunks-are placed in rows according to the numbers of tho owners' rooms, leaving pathways between. Of bis present workJJr.. Holmes eaid: "I am particularly lazy just now, but I hope to do a little more. 1 like to wnt after breakfast for .about two or three hours before noon." His days are spent in reading, writing'aad taking exercise, both walking and driving. He does not drive except in summer, but patrcmze3 street cars in-winter. That Dr. Holmes has a great disliko of autograph' hunters is evident in his con versation. He spoko wrathfully of a man who had just sent a request, inclos ing a stamped envelope and two cards for autographs. "I wrote on one," said he, "because the man had made every thing ready and convenient, bnt I would not write on the other, and. I hope it will be a lesson to him." Dr. Holmes Kays that in his poem called "Contentment" thw is a carious resem blance to a piece entitled "My Wants," by John QainqyArl am., who also quoted the lines at the rx-ginning of the piece. "To the best of my knowledge," said he, "I did not think of thafc-pde- while I was writing mna.

Dr. Holmes has beentsaidxto have "an entire-wantof reverenco 'for everything which is not naturally and rationally worthy of reverence." -And it has beeu added, "This tendency sometimes makes him strike too"hcavyblows at tho nar row creeds ofmen." His exact position is best denned by words f rom his own lips: "X-may speafosligbtinglyvof creeds, but nocne ever heard me speak lightly of thoMaster."

Prior to. the-war newspapers were luxu ries, and their readers were mado npof tho classes rather than of the masses. Now they are necessities and readTby everybody who"wans, to-be omenDdy. t, Tho" cheapest daily newspapers cost SSpcr-joor, with post age added, and tho hotter class of journals cost from three to five cents per copy, or from $8 to $13 a. year. Newspaper men of a generation ago were mcn-of.leiuro as com pared with those of the present day. An occasional essay met all tho editorial re quirements of that age, and the idea of gathering all tho news, editing it to make it brief, fresh, attractive and spicy never invaded the newspaper office. The war gave American journalism its grandest strides, but the remarkable de velopment of advancement duringthe war was only the beginning of journalistic progress. But great as was the develop ment of journalism during the war, the greatest progress in newspapers and in.the multiplication of newspaper readers has been during tho last decade, and the circle is growing rapidly every year. There are scores of thousands now reading their daily newspapers, one published in the morning and one in the evening, who could not afford even one when the cost was from three to-fivo cent3, and-there are other scores of thousands who read three or four instead of one. Tho American cheap newspaper now goes into almost every tome of tho city, and the rapid in crease in newspaper issues is indicative of a corresponding growth of intelligence among the people. A not less valuable feature of the newspapers of tho present day than the news itself is the advertising columns. In olden times newspapers were consid ered valuable to readers only for their news, and advertisements wero incidental surplusage, inserted by merchants as a sort of charity to help fill up thopaper, and rarely attracted attention. Today the newspaper is indispensable, not only to the merchant, but to the shoppers of tho fam ily, as the universally accepted medium of attracting business. Advertisements are no longer the regulation musty affairs they used to be. They are among the most artistic and attractive features of the pop ular newspaper, and tho frugal housewife scans the fresh business announcements of each day as carefully as the dealer or spec ulator scans the produce or money mar kets. Those business houses who patronize tho newspapers are tho ones who secure the bulk of trade. Tho carefully edited, compact, fresh, complete, cheap and neatly printed newspaper is the popular -favorite, and tho only channel through which the public can bo reached for either business or sentiment. JMcKeesport (Pa.) Times. 3Iodora Sound Theories. Dr. Koenig, of Paris, who has been em ployed for a considerable time in making investigations into the composition of musical sounds and the theory of timbre, and who has embodied his experience in a paper which ho read before tho Physical Society of London, England, has collected a number of wave sirens and other expen sive aud elaborate apparatus for tho fur ther demonstration of the points of his re search. Among tho apparatus are some special appliances for producing audible beat tones by the interference of two notes, eacli of which is too shrill to bo separately heard. Musicians, as is well known, have never taken cordially to the current theo ries of Helmholtz respecting overtones and their relation to tho consonance or disso nance of intervals and chords. As Dr. Kocnig's investigations have carried mat ters to a point beyond the speculations of Helmholtz, and not altogether in accord ance with them, scientists are anticipating with considerable interest a full exposition of the now theories. Exchange. Towels for tlio Kitchen. A largo cork is tho best thing to scour knives with, and an iron dish cloth made of rings should hang in every kitchen to wash tho bottoms of kittles that may bo sooty from being used next to tho lire. Some servants will insist on plunging towels into the dishwater and in using fine glass tovols for drying coarse dishes, but such careless ways will usually be abandoned if p. littlo judicious oversight is kept on the kitchen. Where tho housekeeper docs her own work it is as necessary to havo neat, strong towels in plentiful supply in the kitchen as where a servant is kept. Large towels of heavy crash for handling articles about tho stove aro very convenient and can be moro easily washed than a holder. Thoy aro, moreover, more com cnient than a holder in lifting large baking pans and many other dishes, and pets and pans. New York Tribune. SlMXIAIi EXCl'IMOX.
