The violex.e of the press gangs, which seized men of ail ages and oevtipaxfona. wa but a prelude to the oppression that fo..owed. Decent men were herded ind.®:r.n.—y with rmtian®, the r.gfits of free bom Englishmen were rudely matched trim them—f-r them thenceforward there no law save the wil. of the '.■apt.i.n and the dread artt-ci’.-s of war.

An amusing incident happened the 1 other day at a club which had hospl- ! thrown open its doors to two other club® A certain well known otfictr in the brigade of guards was guilty of the offense of smoking tn the morning room. As a matter of fact, be was under the Impression that it was the smoking room. A brother officer told him of his mistake.

Wall street is the capital of the empire of dollar®. Like all other capitajv It has its intrigties. its favorites, its duels. Its cabals and its camarillas, and. like all other capital's, ft gives rts color to those who spend their lives there, it has cren a sort of patriotism -“wolf honor "—which brings its citixens together at times in defense of the dollar and of property rights. The empire of dollars is not altogether a noble spectacle. We are not thrilled at the mere thought of those Venice bankers who "financed” the crusaders.

A SCRUBBING BRUSH. The Way >♦ !• Made an* t** Reares It iMt> >o Little. Two things have made it possible for the modern "lady of the bouse to buy j j tor 5 or li cents a seru&bSig brush i whkb would Lave eost her mother hail a dollar. One i- the invention of the brush filling machine, the other the discovery of the ;».is-;t>i.ities 'of über. This is a comprehensive word. . It > embraces all sort® of vegetable substances which, from their stiffness | when wet. their tenacity and their di vi® illlvv. can be made to take the] . place of bristles. One of the commonest is that known as "bass’ or »ast. j It is the leaf fiber of the piassava tree j and is imported tree Air.- t. •“J - and South America, The factor.es re- , seive it in the form of large bales, each j made up of separate hanks or "pig | ■ rails." which must first be backed or ■ I combed, much as wool or flax is card cd. I When the filer* have thus been laid parallel the bunch or pigtail' is passed ! to the guillotine, a cutter in which the ■ material is ste.'.-iily fed forward, wh.le I a blade like that of the French instru-1 meet of execution cuts it into the de •ired lengths. MeanwhLe the back of the future brush has been prepared. It may be made from any kind of hardwood, but j beech, birch and maple are the favorites. The blanks are sawed to size •nJ are finished on the edges by revolving cutters, like those of an ordinary molding machine or of the lathe for turning lasts They are then ready 1 to be bored. This wa.® formerly done by a drill wt.-'b made each bole separately. The! niudtTD iciiviiine contSalßS 33 many j drills as there are holes to be bored, j They may be arranged in any desired j pattern, and at a single thrust will I bore all the boles and bore them to a i uniform depth. The back and the fill I ing :. -w come tc-gether. The fiber, cut ■ to twice the length of each tuft is [ ..red in tl.e trough o' the filling machine. from which a toothed rack picks up exactly the same quantity each time—enough f>r one knot or tuft. As this little bunch of fiber advances oo one side of the machine a strip of iron feeds forward on the other. The two will meet above the bales in the back of the brush, which the operator is to!-’..ng in place, but just before that t..;>;>OES a die descends and punches from th? strip of meta!’a small piece] shaped somewhat like an inverted pair I of trousers. T’.i' Lit of iron i® known as the anchor.” It is de; ■®:’<- l, waistband down,, c.-on the center of the tuft of fiber. That is simultaneously folded upon it-1 self. thru®t. into the waiting hole in the brush back and driven home by a plunger. The blow serves not merely to force the knot or tuft of fiber to the bottom . of the hole. but. striking between the ' two shanks of iron which represent; the legs of the trousers, it spreads them Epart and so drives the sharp outer am. upper corners into the wood at the sides of the hole. A pull on the tuft of fiber aerely presses these corners deeper into the wood and locks the tuft i more sec irely. Two brushes a minute is the average rate at which all this is done. TL« I operator's only duties are to see that I the machine has a sufficient supply of > fiber and of metal tape and that the , brush back is so placed that the plum ger hits the bole accurately.—Youth's ■ Loippanion. Screen* In C'bina. Screens are to be seen everywhere In ' the dragon eu_. ire. They are carved i of teakwood and handsomely painted ] with various figures and devices. In ■ some parts of China bedsteads similar | to our own are used. They are curl- ■ onsly carved, with drawers underneath and shelve.- for holding toilet necessl-! ties, al! of wh.<-h are hidden out of | eight by drawers which look like a beaßtifui screen. The room® in the different suits of apartment.' are separated one from another by the carved wooden scrollwork for which the Chinese are famous. It ie usually dark and gives a very rich and handsome appearance to the whol» interior, whic-b is dull and dark—owing to the want of windows—until the myriads ot lanterns are lighted. The i carving is sometimes gilded, and some- 1 times the wood is left in a state ot nature with a high polish. Doorways are often half filled in with it Again, a low, deep frieze is seen all around the room. The woman's apartments particularly are decorated with the carved work. Whatever can be imagined as contributing to pleasure and the support of luxury is to be found in ! > the secluded quarters devoted to the women. Ma ale “fcy Ear." Never a music teacher existed who did not discourage and discountenance p.ay!ng the piano “by ear.” as the tai- I ent for hearing a strain and reprndue Ing it has been somewhat ambiguously termed. Yet there thrives in the center of New York an enterprising and not too particular person whose avocation It is to “teach the piano by ear," as his window sign puts it. He has quite a clientele too. Presumably bis /ask lies with those that possess a musical ear to start with and want quick results.
