to St. LouU as a delegate at large and that his associates, to be named to-morrow, will be James A. Gary. William T. Malster and Robert P. Graham. The platform, which is still under consideration, probably will be built on the lines laid down In that recently adopt d In Maine, and the present programme is to send the delegation to St. Louts unlnstructed. Its first vote will be ca?t for Governor Lowndes, after which It will be divided between McKinley and Heed, as the adherents of both candidates are sure of places in the delegation. There U but little doubt that to-morrow's convention will- be harmonious, as all the trouble which heretofore existed between the opposing factions within the party seems to have been smoothed over.

Speeches at the Opening? of the State Convention Lant Xlcsht. NEW HA VEX, Conn., April 21.-The first gun of the Connecticut campaign was fired to-night, when the Republicans of the State assembled In the persons of their delegates for tho opening1 of the Republican State convention, called for the purpose of nominatingdelegates to the St. Louis convention. Hon. Herbert K. Iienton, chairman of the Republican State central committee, called the convention to order. Ills opening remarks took the form of a welcome to the delegates. He said that the conditions eurrounding- this convention are the most auspicious in his memory. In closing Mr. Benton stated that the Republicans of Connecticut are In favor of protection and honest money and predicted overwhelming majorities for the Republican candidates in the November elections. Mr. Eenton then announced that the Hon. Edgar M. Warner, cf Putnam, -had been appointed temporary chairman, and that gentleman advanced to the front of the platform, where he was greeted with cheers. He said: "The eyes of the whole country are on U3. What we do here to-morrow with calm deliberation shall be heralded from Maine to California, from tne great lakes to the gulf, and shall be eagerly read in every city, town and hamlet In the country. We shall demand a eound financial pUnk In our platform, and 2 believe that I express only the belief of very true citizen who hears me when I eAy that there never should be the slightest ouejtlcn as to our views on this topic. What party instituted and successfully managed our financial system during the war? What rarty, after our Democratic friends said it never could be done, resumed specie payments? What party created the splendid surplus? Granted that we have done all this, will not the people trust us to continue In the same honorable career? I believe they will. Throw then our banner to the winds. Let us Inscribe thereon 'Protection to home Industries,' 'American wages for American workmen,' "Home markets for home products, 'Honest money for honest labor.' 'Prevention of pauper Immigration.' With these principles, and with the candidate who shall best represent them, we shall carry every Northern State and some cf the solid South and usher In the coming century under Fkles bIght with promises Kept and hopes fulfilled, and the God of tattles and the God of peace, the .Jod whom cur. fathers reverenced and adored, and whom we love, shall lead this country into fields of accomplishment for the elevation and development of mankind beyond our most ardent dream." At the close of tne address of Judge Warner, the convention proceeded to organize. Andrew F. Gates, of Hartford, was chosen secretary, after which committees on credentials, on permanent organization and on tho platform were cnosen. The convention then adjourned until to-morrow.

Ind., April 21. It was given out here to-night by a leading window-glass manufacturer that in all probability every window-glass factory Hn the United States would be shut down to-morrow as a result of a meeting of window-glass manufacturers In iMuncle yesterday, and a subsequent agree ment to-day on the part of all manufacturers to stand behind the managers of the plant at HartfonJ City.

Ind., April 21. At meetings of the directors of the Western and Eastern window-glass manufacturers' associations, held in Muncle and Pittsburg to-day. It was decided to close 150 of the 1,192 pots under tlielr control. on May 1, cr one month earlier than decided at last week's meeting In Indijnapolis. This means one month more ot Idleness for 1.200 hands. There are SS7 pots in Indiana, and at least 120 of the shut clown po:s will be taken from this district. The force will likely be cut off in every factory in Indiana. The sensation of the meeting was caused by the blowers' strike at the Hartford City glass works. Both of the wln-dow-g!aS assocdatiens claim that the glass company is right, and if the strikers do not consent to return tdf work every factory, both Ea.t and West, wl"i be closed at once, and 20,000 hands throwiu out of work umll next fire, Sept. L The sa-ike wis ordered by L. A. 300 because of the discharge of a man for incompetency, and tne- workers claim that he was an officer, and could not be dismissed as he was. This is the first severe stab the associations have directed at what is claimed to be the strongest labor organization in the country. The two meetings were .held as one. with Che assistance of long-distance telephones. Dozey Will Fight the Glass Tru.t. Special to the Indianapoils Journal. ANDERSON, Ind., April 21.

This he agreed to do and went out of the house with her. She staggered across the street and managed to arouse her neighbors. Brockus was arrested and brought to the county Jail in this city.

To turn from the equine to the human animal, all proceeded from the horse show in an assortment of cabs to the small shop hired on the Boulevard Poissonlere to contain the hot-air boxes In which prematurely-born babies are kept. It U a gratuitous charity, all that Is required is a certificate of poverty to be produced by the family of the child and signed by some responsible person, for the society, being not rich, and the process of keeping up the establishment being extremely costly, those who can afford payment are obliged to give it. The place Is small and scrupulously clean. On first entrance one's Impression Is that of seeing the morgue through the wrong end of an opera gla?s. Fourteen small glass boxes with leaden tops, capped by a long stove-pipe-like chimney, topped by a ventilator, stood around the walls. These boxes are heated from below and the mattress on which the baby lies is Forous and permits the hot air to circulate reely. Each of these hot-air boxes was tenanted by an absolutely motionless atom of humanity, swaddled in .white linen, pinned .tightly over the feet, so that only the head and hands were visible. Over the pillow of each hung a thermometer, the unvarying tempeiature being kept at S3 degrees. A rather pretty girl, who acted as superintendent, explained that they saved 50 per cent, of the six months' babies, and 80 per cent, of the children over six months. One small candidate was waiting for his father to come and take him away. He was quite a fine infant, with a thick crop of dark hair, a truculent expression and a talent for squalling that amounted to genius. The party was much struck by what was, apparently, a mulatto baby, the dark yellow of Its complexion shading Into brown at its finger tips: but the attendants said it was suffering from Jaundice, and its case was, by no means, serious. These poor mites. It seems, are apt to have liver trouble, which causes Jaundice and also Inability to swallow, in which case they are fed through the nostril, and even stomach trouble, which Is serious, as. if they cannot assimilate any nourishment, they die of inanition. It is rather hard on the hapless infants to suffer all the His that flesh Is heir to at so tender an age, and, after scrambling through all manner of maladies, to be handed ever to the Joys of a pauper existence: but, putting that philosophic-view of the case out of the question, the charity is certainly an excellent one, and does more to combat the depopulation of France than all the speeches and articles on that thrilling subject can ever accomplish.

INDEPENDENCE ALONE

WILL SATISFY THE LOXG-SUFFEH-l.G PATRIOTS OF CUUA. Xothlngr Short ot Freedom from Spanish Oppression Will Re Accepted Address Issued by Talma. NEW YORK, April 20.-T. Estrade Palma, president of the Cuban revolutionary Junta, to-night gave out the following address to the people of the United States: "The persistency with which the American press has during the last few day3 been treating of supposed administrative reforms to be introduced in Cuba by the government of.Spain compels me to request the publication of the following declaration which I make In behalf of my government, of the army of liberation of Cuba and of the Cuban revolutionary party. The question of the supposed reforms Is not a matter which at all concerns those who have already established an Independent government in Cuba and have resolved to shrink from no sacrifice of property or life In order to emancipate the whole Island from the Spanish yoke. If the Spaniards resident In the Uland who are favored by the. Spanish government with all sorts of privileges and monopolies, and if the handful of Cubans too. pusilanimous or too proud to acknowledge their error, or a few foreigners guided only by selfish Interests, are satisfied that Cuba should remain -under Spanish domination, we, who militate under the flag of the solitary star, we who already constitute the Republic of Cuba and belong to a free people with Its own government and Its own laws, are firmly resolved to listen to no compromise and to treat with Spain only on the basis of ab solute Independence for Cuba. If Spain has power to exterminate us, then let her convert the island into a vast cemetery: if she has not, and wishes to terminate the war before the whole country Is reduced to ashes, then let her adept the only measure that will put an end to It and recognize our Independence. Spain must know by this time that while there is a single living Cuban with dignity and there are many thousands of them there will not be peace In Cuba nor even hope for it. "All good causes must finally triumph, and ours is a good cause. It is the cause of Justice treated with contempt, of right suppressed by force and of the dignity of a people offended to the last degree. We. have thrown ourselves Into the struggle advisedly and deliberately: we knew what we would have to face and we decided unflinchingly to persevere until we should emancipate ourselves from the Spanish government. And we know that we are able to do it. as we know that we are competent to govern ourselves. Experience has taught us that as a people we have nothing to envy the Spaniards; in fact, we feel ourselves superior to them, and from them we can expect no im'provement. no better education. vvitn regard to tne Knowledge oi moaem institutions and to democratic sentiments we are far more advanced than the Spaniards. In that respect and in many. others we have nothing In common with the Spanish people. We are Americans, we breathe the pure air of free Institutions and we contemplate with envy the government of the people, by the people and for the people." LETTER FROM REV. A. J. DIAZ. The American Divine' Lonjr Harassed by Spanish Troops' nnd Priests. ATLANTA, Ga., April 21. The Journal prints thl3 afternoon a letter from the Rev. A.. J. Diaz, the, Baptist missionary In Cuba, who is now In Morro 'Castle. The letter, which was written three days before his arrest, was ' addressed to Dr. T. T. Tichenor, secretary of the Baptist Home Mission Board, and is in part' as follows: "Dear Sir We have suffered as usual the persecutions of our enemies. You may read the Inclosed communication which I had ready for you last month, but I did not send it because I did not want to create any trouble between our government and this government. We will suffer long for the cause of our blessed Savior. Last Thursday evening I had a congregation of LC00. and nearly 500 was a moving congregation that' disturbed us In such a way that we were not able to distribute the Lord's supper. At San Miguel the priests used their Influence with the Spanish troops in order to menace Mr. Bueno and they did it so roughly that Bueno had to escape to Havana with his family to save their lives. We are not safe here, and they may kill us at any time they want. "Our church still i crowded with .good congregations numbering from 400 to 5,000 people. Next Sundayl shall baptize six girls belonging to our female school. Three of them are supported by the ladies of Baltimore and have been over four years In the school. I don't preach as usual, and the result is I feel a little excited after the service because I did not say all that I ought to say. Pray for us, brother, and, over all, pray that the word of cod be free among us as It Is with you. Nearly a year I don't preach free. Cou!d you ask for protection for our churches?" Laeret Said to Re n "Terror. HAVANA. April 21. Among the documents belonging to Laeret, the Insurgent leader, which -have fallen Into the hands of the Spanish troops are,' It.ls asserted, orders to hang all planters who are now grinding cane and all plateadoe, or criminals, who steal, rob or murder and do not deliver their booty Into the hands of the Insurgents. Laeret, It is further asserted, has a New York paper correspondent with him and has been trying to show the newspaper man how lenient the Insurgents are by liberating- peaceable countrymen who fell into his hands. Laeret, according to the gams story, is seeking to make the correspondent believe that all Insurgent bands act in a similar manner, in contrast to the conduct-of the soldiers composing the government columns, who. the insurgents say, treat the peaceable countrymen In the most cruel manner. EXPLOSION OF A SHELL. Private Killed nnd Three Other Regular Soldiers Wounded. SAN ANTONIO, Tex.. April 21. While light battery K. Third United States Artillery, was firing a salute at Fort Sam Houston to-day, commemorating the day Texas achieved ner independence from Mexico, the premature explosion .of a shell in the open breech of the .cannon Instantly kilied private George A. Parkhurst ar.d wounded three other soldiers, l'arkhurst's right eide and arm were blown awav by the charge. He was a nephew of Dr. Parkhurst, of New -ork. THE GREAT TRIAL ON. (Concluded from First Page.) were on leaves two or three -feet above the corpse. They were on the upder side of the leaves. The blood could not have spurted In this way If the victim was dead when the head was Feverfd.1T,here was a large quantity of blood about the place, the wet ground probably absorbing much. "The cuts on the hand were made before death and were perfectly fresh," the coroner said. "In cuts made on a dead body the tissues do not swell up. The cuts were made by a sharp knife, such as a dissecting knife. The cut3 indicated that the hand had been held to grasp a knife blade which had been drawn through it. The condition of the skin was somewhat drawn up around the wound. There was a bloody water suping from the neck." "What Is the difference between a wound like that made after death and one before?" asked attorney Lockhart. "If the head is cut" off ' after death, the skin being dead, it will not afterward show a drawn appearance." The Doctor then went, on to detail the result of the post-mortem examination. He said that the body was found drained of blood. There was only one clot found. It was about as big as the tip of a man's forefinger, in the heart. If death had taken place before decapitation there would have been more or less coagulating, the Doctor said. The Doctor was present at the autopsies. There were two. At the first the stomach was removed. At that time the unborn babe was found. The other vessels and organs of the body were not carefully examined till the second autopsy. NO CRIMINAL OPERATION. "Doctor, I will ask you," said attorney Crawford, "If at cither autopsy you found any evidence of a criminal operation?" "Not with instruments," was the answer. "What was the condition of the foetus?" asked Lockhardt. "Was it alive?" The witness looked at him in astonishment. "Alive!" he repeated. "I object," shouted attorney Crawford. "I Judge that It was alive up to the time that the woman died," then replied the witness. Attorney Crawford reserved an exception. The cross-questioning then began. "At what angle lay the body?" asked attorney Crawford. "The neck was down hill." "Do you think, then, asked Crawford, "that the blood could have spurted up backward from the neck to the leaves of the privet bushes?" . "From .the position of one of the clots found on the ground I. Judge that the neck might have lain In such a position at the

time of decapitation that the blood could have spurted In that way." Crawford Insisted on a direct answer. "No, I think not." Tngley replied. "Isn't it true that some time after death the blood remains in a liquid state?" asked the attorney. "It remains so longer at some times than others. Asphyxiation would cause quicker coagulation than naturar death. If the temperature should remain high in a body after death coagrulatlon would be slower than If the temperature were low." "What effect has motion after death on coagulation?" . The witness wanted a more definite question. "Well. If blood were shaken In a vessel?" "Coagulation would be quicker." 'Suppose air were excluded, what would be the effect?" "I can't say. The witness thought the body had lain, when found, eight or ten hours by the time he saw it between 8 and 3 a. m. Couldn't say exactly, only approximately. It could be probable that the body had lain where It was ten or twelve hours. "Could it not have -been there fifteen hours?" "Possibly." "Did you not tell Mr. L. D. Sampson shortly after the murder. In your office, that the head was cut off about five hours after death?" "I did not. I had a conversation with Mr. Sampson about that ime, but do not remember everything said at the time. But I could not have made such a statement because I constantly said the opposite." This concluded the Coroner's testimony and the court adjourned. , Witnesses Leave GreencnMle. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. GREENCASTLE, Ind., April 21. The news received here this evening that a Jury had been secured and the telegrams arriving calling the witnesses to Newport caused renewed excitement In Greencastle, the home of Pearl Bryan. Agents are booking large orders for daily papers, ani the details of the trial, evidence and incidents will be closely read. The witnesses will leave here on a late train. Among them will be Fred and Frank Bryan and Mrs. Stanley, brothers and sister of Pearl Bryan, together with Joseph Plercy, Dr. Reverdy Gillespie and others . Notes of the Trial. Mr. Sprau coined a new word. He told the attorneys he had a paper-opInion" of the case. Business In Newport and in the offices of the courthouse is practically suspended during the trial of Scott Jackson. James Noe, the oldest of the Jurors, with gray hair and white whiskers, said he had no scruples about hanging and no deep prejudice. .. ; No one who sees the persons and personages connected with the conduct of the trial of Scott Jackson can doubt that It 13 the day of young men. In one corner of the court room sat a woman In sunbonnet and calico dress. She Is Mrs. Mary Morgan, the woman who found Pearl Bryan's hat, the bloody handkerchief and the rock which may have been used to kill the girL . . Two of the women who were In court, and who wore sailor hats, at the noon adjournment were taken Into a side room, and attorneys Crawford and Nelson had a long consultation with them. They refused to give their names. Julge Helm is an astonishingly young man to occupy the bench. Sheriff Plummer Is a young man. The clerk of the court is no older than he. Jailer Bitzer has not passed thirty, probably. Of the attorneys In the case only two show traces of gray in their hair. - The man most striking in appearance of the jurors accepted is Murty Shea. He is a contractor, and capitalist "of Newport. He was roadmazter of the Somerset division of the Cincinnati Southern railroad during its construction. His hair and beard are snowwhite. L. D. Poock, the Newport shoe man, who furnished the important clew as to the murdered girl's shoes, has arranged quarters for the father and mother of Pearl Bryan at Mrs. J. J. Ralpe's, 720 Monmouth street, Newport. He expected them to arrive tonight. Fred Bryan anJ his slater, Mrs. Stanley, will come Wednesday. , Four or five Greencastle friends will come and will be quartered on York street by Mr. Poock. The Kentucky law, under which Scott Jackson stands for trial, embraces three degree of crime murder, voluntary manslaughter, unintentional killing. The law upon which the Jury and Judge mun fix their decision is: "If any person be guilty of willful murder he shall be punished with death or confinement In the penitentiary ror life. In the discretion of the Jury." Jackson's attorney,- it io oeen thought all along, may attempt to prove that Pearl Bryan died as the result of an operation. In this event. If the prosecution can show that Scott Jackson attempted the operation and the girl died as the result of his negligence, he is still guilty of murder undet the interpretation of the Kentuctcy statutes. Such an attempted operation 13 a felony, and a ' footnote to the statute on manslaughter reads: "The general rule Is that one whose negligence causes another's death is responsible, whether the business In which he was engaged was legal or illegal. If It was of such a character as to be felonious the offense is murder."

In other words. If Pearl Bryan died In Campbell county as the result of careless-; nes3 on Scott Jackson's and Alonzo WalJ ling's part they must answer for the greatest of all crimes, save treason against the Commonwealth murder in the first degree.

When he arrived at the teacher's house he found that the person possessed-was an od woman, but that she was talking with tue voi:e of a young girl. This is the first fact. Second She claimed to know, and by her conversation gave evidence that he did know, much about the Christian religion.

With this he ordered the bystanders to bring paper, which he rolled up as sticks of Incense, and, lighting them, he ordered some one to seize the old woman and hold frer while he blew the smoke of The burning paper into her face until she was almost c.ioked. Finally she promised to leave if he stopped (still In the voice of a girl,) He stopped, and again she began to make excuses, and ask to be allowed to leave gradually. On his refusal, and when he began at once to light his paper again, she began to cry: "Donf smoke me ag-aln." and say that they were all so crowded around that she could not get out. He paid no attention to her cries, but smoked her again; and in a short time she cried out and left the old woman, who fell back in a helpless way, and in a few moments came to herself and began to talk in her natural tones, and the spirit was gone.

Spangier, a member of that body, called the attention of his audience to some remarkable questions asked of elementary school pupils at the recent examination. Though they are undoubtedly meant to be serious, some of them are so ridiculous that even an intelligent horse, could 3ie but read them, would turn away his head to nlde a quiet smile. For Instance: "Where have you ever seen the surface of the earth?" "Harry had eight apples in a basket: how many apples would It ake to fill s:x baskets?" with no reference to the size of the apples or the capacity of the baskets. One of the examination questions, fraught with deep meaning, read: "Compare a slate pencil and a lead pencil." The puzzled pupil, with a sudden gleam of Intelligence had written: "Positive, slate pencil; comparative, more slate pencil; superlative, most elate pencil. XHtto bad pencil."

BARON HlfiSCH DEAD

EUROPE'S GREATEST PIIILAXTIinO. i lST DIBS OF II CART FAILURE. Spent 3IUllona In Founding; Schools and Aiding Persecuted Hebrews Death of 31. Leon Snjv . VIENNA, April 21.-Baron Iflrsch died this morning of heart disease at his estate, near Komorn. The Baron had as puest Herr Ehrenfeld, a land owner and a large company. He was unusually gay, and drank a quantity of champagne, responding to all the toasts. He retired to bed at 1 o'clock In the morning. Probably this Induced syncope, and when his moanlngs were heard It was too late to render effectual assistance. The Baron, whose full name was Morris de Hirsch de Gereuth, was a native of Bavaria. He was born In Munich In 1S3X His father was a man of wealth, who for ability and services rendered the State was ennobled, and from the former baron came the title Morris de Hirsch bore. After his father's death he associated himself with the European banking house of Blschoffshelm & GoldsmKh. Early In life he struck out a path for himself, and was the first to plan that system of railways which stretches out from central Europe to the further East. He was the controlling spirit in that vast work, the road leading from Buda-Pesth, in Hungary, to Varna, on the Black sea. This road, which has developed Austrian resources, required at Its Inception an enormous capital. Natural difficulties might have disappeared through engineering skill, but there were many obstructions arising from State Jealousies. By dint of sheer will and financial capabilities of the highest order Baron De Hirsch's plans were carried out, and after many years of anxious toll success came and great wealth accrued to the originator of the road. Having married Miss Blschoffshelm, a lady possessing In her own right large means. Baron le Hirsch some years ago retired from business, but not to assume a life of elegant leisure. Apparently they had no other end in view than the prosecution of good works, for beyond such means as enabled them to live, all the rest of their Income served for the alleviation of suttering mankind, without regard to creed. Throughout the East In Egypt and European and Asiatic Turkey many schools, educational and industrial, were founded and maintained by the Baron. For Instruction in Gallicla he has given 10.CW.u03 francs ($-',000,000.) To Russia he made the munificent offer of $10,000,1)00 for public Instruction, with this sole proviso, that no distinction should be made In tne application of the funds as to race or religion. This offer the Russian government declined. Soon after this the Baron started a movement to aid which he gave $240,000, to provide means for tne emigration of Russian Jews to this and other countries and their education after they reached their destination. After this he established, at an outlay of about $2,000,000, a colony In the Argentine Republic for the suffering Russian Jews, and this he baa since maintained. In addition to these public bequests his private charities have been enormous. ' ... The Baron was particularly fond of sports of the turf, and he maintained large racing stables. His principal residence of late years was in Paris, but a great part of hla time was Epent in England. - A XOTED FUENCII3IAX.

Jean Dnptlste Leon Say, the Dlstln'srulshed Political Economist. PARIS, April 21. M. Leon Say, the distinguished political economist, died at 2:30 o'clock this morning. JeanvBaptlste Leon Say Inherited hl3 genius. He was born In Paris, June 6, 1S23, his father being Emile Say and his grandfather Jean Baptiste Say, both eminent political economists, so his very blood, so to speak, was impregnated with political economy.. A small pamphlet, written by him at the age of twenty-two, and his contributions to the Journal des Economistes prove that he had not only carefully and assiduously studied tho works of his grandfather and father, but that he had read the . English economists with no less advantage. By his family position, as well as by his Inherited fortune and precocious Intellectual maturity, M. Leon Say was called, when still young, to important positions. He was, with M. De Rothschild, looked up to as one of -th best and mo-t active directors of the Northern railway, and since, then belonged in the same capacity to other important companies. It was there that he acquired that vast knowledge of business which gave him so great a superiority when he took up the Journalist's pen. His relations with the press were equally due in great part to his family connections. M. Leon Say married a daughter of M. Berlin, the elder, the editor of the Journal des iebats tne man whose portrait, drawn by Ingres, and this great painter's uncontested masterpiece, remains tne type of the French bourgeoisie under Louis Philippe. It was but natural that even after m. Bertln, the etder's, death, .and when his brother tnlrd of the Berlin aynasty till then Known as an artist of merit; took up the editorship, the nepnew of the new editor should occasionally express his views in tne old paper. Ills articles were very remarkable. After the war he was made Prefect of the Seine. No one could have alrected the shipwrecked vessel of the city of Paris after tne storm of the Commune better than he. He then became Minister of Finance under Thiers. As embassador to London he added to his dinlomatic reputation. He was elected President of the Senate In May 1880. and his term of ottlce was renewed after some contest. He was a man of strong- character, both honest and disinterested, and among his minor accomplishments he understood the art of good living. The best dinners In Paris' were served in his salle a manger; tho finest wines were stored in his cellars; Uiere was not a trashy article of furniture In his house nor a bit of garUh bric-a-brac. Kictures were not so numerous as to give '; Is reception rooms the air of a museum, uut there were a good many of them, and they were the best works of the masters who painted them. M. s?ay's public career Is thus summarized: He. was an unsuccessul candidate for the Corps Leglslatlf in 1SSJ. but In February, 1871, he went to the National Assembly as one of the representatives of two departments Seine and Selnc-et-Oise. In June of the same year he became prefect of that department. In October, ltsTl, he went to London, accompanied by M. Vautraln, the president of the Municipal Council of Paris, and presented to the Court of Aldermen at Guiiahall a bronze medal of the Hotel de Ville and the large gold medal which was struck in coTmemcravlon of the revictualing of Parts by voluntary subscriptions collected in thid country. At the same time he, on behalf cf M. Thiers, presented the Lord Mayor with the Granl Cross of the Lcg.on of Honor. On Pec. 7, 1872, he was made Minister of Finance by M. Thiers, on who?e downfall -he resigned his office (May St. 1S73.) He again accepted the portfolio of finance In M. Buffet's .administration, in March, 1875. Soon afterward he was elected a Senator from the department of the Seine-et-Oise, and, his term of office expiring In 11S2. he was re-elected. He retained his portfolio In the Dunfaure Cabinet of the ICth of May, 1S76, and In the Jules Simon Cabinet of the 13th of December following, but he retired with the latter May 17. 1877. When a new Ministry was formed under the presidency of M. Dunfaure in December. 1S77. M. Say agalr. became Minister of Finance. He presided over the International monetary conference held at the Foreign Office, Paris, in August, 1878. He retained the position of Minister of Finance in the first Cabinet formed by President Grevy. He retired from the administration Dec. 17, 1S79. with the head of the Cabinet. M. Wsddlngton, and resumed his place among the members of the left center. In April. 1880. he was appointed embassador in London, with a view of his conducting the negotiations for a treaty of commerce, and he met with a cordial reception, but he returned to Paris In the course of a few weeks. In consequence of his having been elected President-of the Senate, May 23. 1SS0. In place of M. Martel. who had resigned on account of HI health. In 18S)Jie resigned his seat as a Senator and was elected as Depute de Pau. Basfs Pyrenees. He was re-elected President of the Sena'e Jan. 20, 1881. and he became Minister of Finance In the De Freycinet Cabinet, formed Jan. CO. 1SS2. This Cabinet, however, went out of office in a few months. In November. 1SS3, M. Say was elected president of the reunion of the left center, and as such he made several political campaigns In favor of Liberalism as opposed to Radicalism, ar.d endeavored to build up Liberal Republican party In Parliament.

The employment of glass for window which is transparent from within and a, mirror from without, thus preventing an outsider from seeing what Is going on within, while those inside enjoy an unobstructed view of the street, is becoming popular in the East. The first windows used sera imported from Germany, but the American Druggist explains the method cf producing this curious effect, as follows: Dissolve one part by weight of silver nitrate In ten parts by weight of water and label No. 1. Prepare another of 10 per cent, solution of silver nitrate, but In largr quantity; to this add ammonia water, drop by drop, stirring" carefully until the precipitate formed at first is completely dlolvel. and label No. 2. Now add solution No. 1 to solution No. 2 until the odor of ammonia la no longer recognizable and the liquid has again become very turpid. Now add one hundred parts by welglit of distilled water for every part of silver nitrate originally used In solution No. 2 and filter until clear. Label No. 3. Prepare a reducing solution by dissolving 0.9 rart by weight of Roche'.la salt In 384 parts by weight of distilled water, boll, and to the. boiling solution add gradually a solution of three parts of silver nitrate in ten parts by weight of d: tilled water and Alter when cool and latoel No. 4.
