"AND Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years. And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years and he died."

INDIANA'S Quaker City, otherwise Richmond, Wayne county, is indulging in metropolitan frills. It has a commercial club in full blast that •will shortly build a first-class modern Jiotelwith all the latest luxuries,club rooms, etc. The venture is already on assured success and the new hotel will doubtless prove a great card for one of the most beautiful little cities in the West.

QUEEN VICTORIA may embrace the •Catholic religion. There is much uneasiness on the subject in England. Her Majesty is reported to have been unusually gracious toward Roman prelates who have from time to time called upon her, and her attitude toward Catholic dignitaries during her recent visit to Florence is said to have been friendly to a marked degree.

TIIE rate of duty on wheat imported into France has recently been raised from five to seven francs a hectolitre, which makes the duty about 35 cents per bushel. The raise •was made as a protection to French farmers who could not compete with the immense quantitities of Indian wheat thrown on the market on account of the unprecedented crops raised in that country last year.

TIIE Columbian Museum at Chicago has secured a great collection of historical tapestries illustrating scenes in the life of Christ. They were made for Pope Urban VIII about 1G20, and until twelve years ago hung in the Barberim palace at Rome. The series is valued at $400,000. These tapestries are the finest 5n the United States, and are equalled by only a very few royal collections in Europe.

NEW YORK city is to have a "speedway" running close along the shore of Harlem river from Washington bridge to High bridge, some two miles in length, for the exclusive use of those fortunate individuals who own fast horses and desire a place to drive iihem. A portion of the route will be blasted from the solid rock of the bluff along the east shore of Manhattan Island.

A CITY exchange informs us that it is "good form'' to cross the asphalt streets at any point a person may desire, and that it is quite unneccessary to hunt for "crossings." "Country Jakes'' who have been accustomed to "cross the road"' whenever thev felt like it will be greatly relieved to learn that they can do the same in the city without incurring the jeers of fastidious dudes who are sticklers for "form" in all the details of every day life.

OPPRESSED humanity will be greatly relieved to learn that Prof. Larkin has discovered that the remarkably hot weather that has prevailed this spring is caused by a solar cyclone 86,000 miles in length and 46,000 miles in width, the whole luminous atmosphere gyrating in a manner that would make a Kansas zephyr green with envy. Now that we know the cause oi our discomfort we may as well fill up with ice creanj and buttermilk and wipe our weeping brows "till the clouds pass by."

IT is a great satisfaction to have somethings settled as we go along. The positive Dr. Talmage is never in doubt about anything, and in his Little Rock sermon related with groat minuteness the incidents of the departure of the Jewish warriors on the expedition against the Amalekites. They were given a great send-off. Kisses were thrown and "handkerchiefs waved" just like people do nowadays. Now that it is settled that handkerchiefs were in vogue, we would like to know if catarrh was epidemic and whether the proprietor of Dr. Pennyroyal's Sureenough Specific was offering a reward of $1,000 for a case that could not be cured.

BARON SAURMA, the German ambassador at Washington, notwithstanding his high position, appears to be somewhat of a nuisance to his neighbors at the National capital. Evidently he has been accustomed to live on an estate and finds it difficult to dispense with the usual accessories of a barnyard. His roosters crow at the usual time and arouse the aristocratic neighborhood. His dogs bark and howl in spite of revolvers and bootjacks. His cats eat the poison thrown to them by exasperated neighbors and die on the premises with the usual unpleasant results to olfactory nerves in that vicinity. His servants hang out the weekly washing in the front yard in full view of the most aristocratic surroun jings. His "hired gal"' throws dishwater in the door-yard and upon the head of an old lady in an adjoining lot. The Ambassador and his neighbors have been occupying the time and' attention of the Police Department and the Board of Health to the exclusion of more important matters. Charges and counter charges have been made. The Police Department have exonorated the Baron's neighbors, and say the Ambassador don't know how to live in a city—at any rate in an American citv.

MSCELAAKGOUS NOTES.

It has been estimated that at least one-half of the power expended in the operation of the average manufacturing establishment is wasted in overcoming the friction of lubricated surfaces of shafting and other machnjerv.

There are eleven evangelical societies engaged in mission work in Mexico. The total number of foreign missionary laborers is 177 and of native assistants 512. There are 4G9 congregations, 385 of which are organized churches, and 118 church buildings. There are 16,250 communicants and about 50,000 adherents.

In 1810, when Great Britain seized Mauritius, there was a huge turtle in the court of artillery barracks, at Port Louis, and it is there to this day, although nearly blind. It is over eight feet long, two feet high, when walking, and weighs 330 pounds. It can carry two men on its back.

At an election in Wilkesbarre, Pa., twin brothers, who look very much alike, desired to vote but as one was too ill to leave his bed, the other voted in his own name, and then, one hour later, visited the polls once more, and voted again, this time giving his brother's name.

and upward the consent of the city council and of property holders residing within fifty feet must be secured. In places of less than 5,000 inhabitants, the consent of 65 per cent, of the voters is necessarv.

PROP. DEWAR is something of a scientist. He has from time to time perforated feats in London with the common elements that border on the miraculous. His last exhibition before the Royal Institution on the 10th of May was to float a soap bubble on the surface of a glass vessel filled with liquid air. Intense cold caused by evaporation froze the bubble and it broke in two and the half spheres floated for an hour until submerged in an artificial snow drift precipitated in the vessel by the freezing air.

NOT Jong since aNew Y©rk utimsel became dissatisfied with the pattern of nose that Nature had provided for her use and adornment, and proceeded to hare it dissected while yet alive, The surgeons were so successful that a Philadelphia girl became ambitious to have her ears "done over" according to her own notions of what suited her peculiar style of beauty. The operation was performed to the entire satisfaction of all concerned, and the offending ears were tucked back neatly after a v-shaped piece had been carved from their too expansive dimensions.

A local boom in the matrimonial market is likely to be caused by a quarrel between two justices in Rooks County, Kansas. One of them announces his readiness to marry couples free of charge the other advertises that he will not only do this, but also give each couple a turkey.

The policemen at Dieppe are required to be ready to rescue persons from drowning, and are supplied with printed rules for efficient service. One of the rules directs them to "seize a drowning lady by tho dress, and not by the hair, which often remains in their grasp, while the lady sinks,"

That odd little town of Ounalaska, which is cut off from civilization for nearly eight months of the year,will be very gay this summer, and the man who shall undertake to carry excursionists a-summering to Bering sea and the seal islands must let his patrons enjoy the gaveties of Ounalaska. There are plenty of flowers on the island in midsummer, days half as long again as most New Yorkers ever knew, and a mixed population that can muster at a ball a score of girls that can dance fromj biinset to dawn. With fifteen or twenty war-ships touching at alaska, the dancing ladies of the 'tlmneat will have enough to do.

TIIE COAL MINERS' STRIKE.

Peaceful Solution of the Difficulties—Hostilities Averted.

After prolonged consultation, Saturday, with the Adjutant General and Major Defrees, and after the receipt of numerous telegrams stating that the peace officers were unable to restrain the mobs of riotous miners, Governor Matthews ordered the Adjutant General to call out nine companies of tho State militia to proceed to the scenes of disturbance. The aggregate number of soldiers was about 450. The Indianapolis companies left over the Pennsylvania road at 2:30 p. m,, Saturday. The troops from tho southern part of the State joined the Indianapolis militia at Seymour.

The reports from the coal mining dis* tricts of the State, received at Indianapolis up to a late hour Monday morning, indicate that the militia sent to the scene by tho Governor on Saturday was eminently successful in heading off any riotous demonstrations that might have been intended. At Cannelburg the militia found but a handful of miners, and they were quiet. Three of the ringleaders were arrested by Sheriff Leming, assisted by the troops. A conference between Adjt.Gen. Robbins and tho strkers' committee resulted in tho assurance that the miners do not propose to violate the laws. Without any interference on tho part of the minors the railroad company repaired its track and got the coal trains under way. At Shelburn, whither another detachment of troops had gone, the situation was about tho same. Thorn was-a largo crowd and considerable excitement, but the coal cars were moved without any conflict resulting. Tho laws of the State Of Indiana have been upheld without bloodshed the miners have recognised the superior strength of the State and have receded gracefully.
