CUBA IN NEW YORK.

CLARA BELL'S DELIGHTFUL EXPERIENCE WITH A CUBAN SENORITA.

Admirable Methods of Keeping Cool—Delicious Drinks for Hot Weather—An Afternoon Nap—Sleeping on the

House-Top—A Bath.

ICor. Cincinnati Enquirer.]

Last week I wrote something about a friend from Cuba, and her admirable lethods of keeping tolerably cool here in ew York. Beverages are an important ling in ber treatment. But tbey are not lcobol'c, bias* you. She calls a uegress, and asks ma what cooling drink I will hare —tamarind water, coooanut water or juioe of limes. She recommends tamarind water as the most wholesome and cooling, but when she adds that there are plenty of green cocoanuts fresh from Cuba, and kept cool in the icebox, I am eager to drink cacoanut water. The duenna brings me a glawfuH It looks like water from a pitcher that has had milk in it, but oh, how delicious it isf How soft an rich an sweet. Estella sips ber tamarind water in the otker window, caroling at the same time a Spanish drinking song that I can not understand, but which makes my very reins tingle with pleasure.

Later, as we sprawl thera in the window, 1 hare a glass of the tamarind water. It, too, is delicious How well these tropical folk understand how to keep cool and comfortable in hot weather 1 These drinks, she tells mo, not only kaap them cool, but regulate the system so that thay are healthy and the blood ii thianeJ and kept in good conditio!). Why do we not learn the lesson they teach? Tru", we can not all of us get, or all of us aff rd, green oocoanut milk but tamarinds are cheap, lirnei are plenty, lemons will do as well, and the making of them is so simple no one needs to be told how. The only question if whether you like thom sweet or acid, and that's a mere questiou of how much sugar you put in.

Pretty soon tho luncheon bell was rung and I got a lesson in eating. An I passed down stairs through the house I noticed that every door and window was open, and that ererything was arranged for coolnesf. The hall floors were marble the bed-room floors were of hard wool The upholstered rockers, chair.) and sofas had been put away in the garret until wintor, and in all the rooms these articles wjere all of cool rattan. Iu the dining-room stood a table that I would like to have had photographed. In the center roM a mound of vegetation, a small palm, totno coleu plants and some cobwobby, hair-leaved ferns, with a few blossoms above the green. A great bowl of oranges aud grape*, dish of omelette, and a few thin-slfcad sandwiches of potted grouse and white bread in another plate, kept the fruit company. The colored man who stood behind Estella with a fan—more for style than usefulness, I think—poured our glasses full of a light Spanish wine from a pretty stone flagon. I could not help noticing how oooling the luncheon was designed to be. In an American house I would have had beefsteak, greasy ohops, or perhapt ham or sausages.

In the afternoon we enjoyed a nap together, dressed as we had been, on the roof, she in a hammock and I in her cot. The canvass awning was drawn almost completely over the roof, and the coelness and breeziness there surprised me. The little palms rustled soothingly, the flowers lent their perfume to the air, and the sougs of the birds in the park came faintly on the breeze. At half-past 4 o'clock we drove through the park and upon the road, I being permitted to take the place of the jellylike duenna.

At dusk the father aud brother coma tip from dowu town, and clad in suits of summer twilled goods like thin d"ck, and we •at down to a regular course dinner—an* other meal especially designed to meet the requirements of the thermometer. First there was a thin, clear consomi ie soup, then boiled fish, then roast chicken and lettuce salad, and after that ice cream, fruit, Neufohatel cheese and small cups of ooffee. Before the coffee and all through the meal a light brand of claret was drank, every one thinning his portion with seltser water. In the evening the gentlemen proposed card*, and E%tolla entertained u* then and afterward with Spanish songs, some of which so affected her father that he clapped his hands, hummed the refrain or closed his eye and rocked to and fro as the magioal music rose and fell in the air.

At night, when I disrobed behind a screen on the roof I acknowledged to myself that I had never spent a pleasanter day. I was a little disturbed at having to undre in the open air, and could not help thinking that perhaps there might be somebody somewhere around, but I was not too foolishonly a little so, and undressing as quickly as po sible I got under the bedclothes. Then came a new torment. I imagined the air full of insects, spiders and beetles Happily, while I was thinking of them, I fell asleejx

I had agreed to get up early and go to church with m/ little Catholic, and the sun was only knee-high in the heavens when we started for the cathedral, she and I and the jelly-like duenna. Those two went on their knees before the altar, and I walked •round the great cool tempie and stared, I am afraid, like a barbarian.

When we returned to the house of my brown-eyed friend the man servant brought each of us a cup of coffee and a biscuit* and 1 was handed two towels and bidden to take a bath. I never saw or dreamed of such a bath as that was. The whole of the rather lurx* hall bedroom had been turned into a bath tank three feet deep, and with a platform projecting over it slightly at the end of the room where the door, cut in two so as to open on the platform, swung inward. I undressed, descended two little steps, and enjoyed a real swim around and around in a circle. Estella told me not to forget to try ber plan of a sponge bath with diluted Florida water afterward, and I did try it, and wished 1 was rich enough to use it every day in the year. When I emerged from the room the duenna let alt that water out and filled the tank for my friend. After that breakfast was ready, and I began the last half of my very pleasant visit to little Cuba in the heart of New York city.

THE OLD-FASHIONED HOME.

I Of all the tender and comfortable things That now and then swoet memory brings, There's nothing dearer that love recalls

Than tbe olJ-fahioned house with its whitewashed walla -A I Not a mansion to-day, though a marvel of art, Can ever usurp its place in my heart, For there my earliest prayers were said,

And I slept at night in a trundle bed. 'Heath coverlids reaching from feet to chin By a mother's hand tacked gently m. And a good-dight kiss on my tired brow— Oh, earth holds no such blessing now.

A garJen was fragrant in flower beds Wh-re marigolds lifted their velvet heads. And warmed by sun-biue. refreshed by dew. Tbe bachel jr-button and uch-me-not grew In a river that curved like a shepherd's crook. We fishe-l for minnow* with bent pm-book, Or with little bare feet oft waded through, And bravely "paddlad our own canoe." 'Twas a home of welcome no one could doubt, Whose latch-tring hung invitingly out, And many a stranger supped at its board While biasing logs iu the chimney roared.

Ob, this Ls an arje of reform and changel And things festtntk, mo lern and strange— Improvement* that savor of silver and gold Are superseding the cherished and old. 'hV: But I turn from palaces built for t»how With mansard roof and stories below Of frescoed, kalsomined, dadoed halls, To the old-fn-hioned house with its whitewashed walls.

THE FAMILY OF MADAGASCAR.

Interesting Notes by a French Naval Officer—Some Peculiar Customs. [M. de Lapparent In La Reforme Sociale.]

Polygamy, and the irregular relations which often go with it, are admitted, but are not common with this people and a regular marriage is considered as the real basis of tho family. Sterility is held in horror, and the usual formula of compliment is: "May God be good to you and give you children." In case of need, the head of the family has recourse to adoption to secure the continuance of his name.

The family forms a kind of a commune, living under one roof brothers, sisters, cousins even to the socoul generation—all contributing their labor to the general stock. The child who should refuse to adopt as his own tbe aims and the wishes of the community would be given up to the general reprobation by the lawB of rejection, which the head of the house is free to exercise.

No cars Is taken to educate the children. They grow up with no other check upon their natural disposition than that imposed by the family traditions and the personal authority of tho father. Important matters are discussed by the older members, and, in extreme cases, by a council of the whole fami ly. Should this be unable to agree, the state authority is called in to decide the matter—a step nearly always ruinous, for judges in Madagascar are even more apt than other judges to eat the oyster and leave the shells to the disputants. The father is free to leave his property as he will, and the favored ohild, instead of being an object of envy on the part of the others, is looked upon by all as their nat ural protector.

Ona of the strongest influences in binding tho family together is the right to a plaoe in the ancestral tomb. Exclusion from this, which is to the Malagasy the mojt sacred spot in the world, ia the greatest disgraoe that can happen to any one. The funeral ceremonies are naturally made as imposing as possible, and the tombs have a more sumptuous character than the dwellings.

The dread of the father's malediction greatly contributes to the strength and the union of the family. Any one upon whom this curse has fallen is shunned by his fellow citizens, and bis posterity becomes outoast

Slavery is a less unhappy condition in Madagascar than might be supposed. The duties of each slave are defined, and by no means excessive and he has his own patch of rioe land or his calf. The slaves have the right to purchase their freedom, but very few of them take advantage of this, because their tasks would be made much heavier as laborers responsible to the state than as dependents upon a master. The overseer of the slaves, always himself a slave, is respected and treated like one of the family.

Caste, as known in Madagascar, is the assemblage of several families sprung from tho same ancestors. It possesses a jurisdiction superior to that of the family and the ancestral law doss not permit the sale or transfer of the lands held by one caste to the members of another.

History of Crinoline. [St James* Gazette.]

The Frankfurter Zeitung contains an interesting article on the origin and history of that revived monstrosity, tbe crinoline. Like many other devices which we are accustomed to regard a.« comparatively modern, tbe crinoline seems, in reality, to be exceedingly ancient Hesiod, who wrote in the eighth century before Christ, must have observed something of the kind, for he advises young men not to be led astray by certain women of his day who wore their clothes puffed oat behind. For more than twenty centuries after Hesiod's time, however, the crinoline languished in obscurity and it was not until after Queen Elisabeth had come to the throne of England that tbe farthingale became fashionable. The farthingale, or vertugade, which served to extend the skirts of the ladies of quality who were Shakespeare's contempdl*aries, is described as having been made of hair and wadding.

In the eighteenth century whalebone generally took the place of these cumbrous materials but already iron or steel hoops were in use in England and, covered with silk or cotton, steel hoops won their way to universal favor, until, a few years ago, they wore partially superseded by folds of highly starched muslin. If "dress improvers" were actually worn by the Greek women of Hesiod's day, it is not improbable that tbey were also worn »0Q years earlier, and that Helen, when she Sad with Paris to Troy, wore some primitive kind of crinoline.

A Trick 6t U»e Tailors. [New York Letter.]

New York tailors complain that the British customers who are introduced to them by American friends go away in the great majority of instances without paying their bills. Tbe tailor* do not care to refuse their orders, tat the American introducers should be offended, no they procrastinate and are languid, and manage not to make the dotbes fit, and so often save their goods.

HOW THE BUSINESS OF SELLING "'WALL PAPER IS CONDUCTED. ®t^^|f Jobbers Looking Over the Sample

What Is and What Is Not a Desir-

••••v

able Pattern—The Fickle Publie and Fashions.

[New York Times.]

That people should buy wall paper is no! at all singular, but the manner in which the sale of these goods is conducted is strange when compared with other methods of transacting business. On the 1st of August the work of the designers, colorists, and printers of all the wall paper makers of the country is ready for insgpetion by the trade. All of the wall paper manufacturers, with the exception of three firms, are members of a pool called the American Wall Paper association. Of the tweuty-six firms in this pool fifteen are located in this city or Brooklyn, and these include the most important firms in the bu-iness. New York is, therefore, the centre of the trade, as it is the headquarters of the pooL It is to this city then, naturally, that the trade comes to buy its stock for the coming season. The manufacturers other cities—all but two of whom have their factories in Philadelphia—accommodate the trade and meet It here annually. Those out-of-town firms have brought many hundreds of samples of paper here, and have established themselves in cozy rooms at the Gilsey house, where they are now engaged in entertaining the jobbers and in selling goods by sample between whiffs of Reina Victorias and draughts of cooling drinks. The manufacturers who are situated here convert their offices and warerooms into reception and show rooms for the benefit of these jobbers, who make their selections there. These jobbers will in turn carry on their missionary work of beautifying the home of the people through the persuasive efforts of their drummers with the retailers scattered from Portland, Me., to San Francisco and from Winnipeg to San Antonio.

The great distributors of the manufactures in this line—the jobbers—are about fifty in number, and each one is accompanied by a lieutenant to assist him in his labors of culling from tbe mass of many colored and intricately designed papers such patterns as will please the artistic tastes of the particular class of patrons to which he caters. That this is no easy task may be assumed when it is stated that the samples now or. exhibition at the Gilsey and at the factories in this city and Brooklyn number more than 1,009. It is a bewildering and bedazzling collection to look upon, and seems to contain every possible combination of color in gross, tint, or shade, and every conceivable combination in line, cure, and figure, with a liberal intermingling of representations of the animal and vegetable kingdoms of the labyrinth of geometrical designs. Of course the impression is wrong, for next August them will be presented an equally numerous col lection of new colors and designs. It is sufficiently bewildering as it is, without think ing of what the future will bring forth, and this is why each jobber is accompanied by an assistant to help in making selections.

Two heads and two pairs of eyes are far better than one of each in dealing with this mass of color and the seductive wiles of the average wall paper manufacturer. The judgment of these buyers, as a rule, makes or condemns to obscurity any of the new patterns that may be shown. Tbe manufacturer's judgment 1 often supplemented by tbe more mature judgment of these shrewd jobbers, who from their more intimate contact with the trade, and so with the people, know what is and what is not a desirable pattern. By their decision, then, does the product of a designer and colorist either cover the walls of a thousand homes, or is condemned to tbe obscurity into which have now departed patterns that were once fashionable. By that same decision scores of patterns that have cost much time and many dollars are condemned never to be seen outside of the factory where they were produced. These arbitrary gentlemen are the censors of fashion and taste in their line as much as is the prince of Wales in the line of clothing for "swell" Englishmen, aping Anglomania cs, and "dude#." Fashions decreed by them stand., patterns rejected fall.

The selections made and orders booked, the active work of manufacturing begins aud continues throughout the fall and winter until enough goods are made to supply all the people in this broad land, the into* rior of whose homes are to receive in the spring a new and more or less resplendent coating of wall paper. The work of the manufacturer is, of course, supplemented throughout the selling season by the labors of the ubiquitous "drummer." The labors of that peculiar individual are, of course, reduced by the process of sorting and of condemnation now proceeding at the hands of the jobbers. This scheme of bringing trade and makers together is also of very material benefit to tbe manufacturer. By it he is saved from manufacturing a large quantity of paper which, if the judgment of the jobber is correct, would be unsalable material. He is also saved the expense of manufacturing miles of paper to be used by jobber*, whole* salers, and retailers for samples. That this saving is no inconsiderable amount is shown by the fact that last year one firm in this city printed and used as samples over 100,000 rolls of paper of various designs. As each roll contains twenty-four feet—eight yards—of paper, their samples contained 2,400,000 feet of paper, and resulted in a sale of 144,000,000 feet, or enough to entirely band the globe at the equator and leave a "remnant" 13,000.000 feet in length.

A gentleman well informed as to the de* fa*n« of this trade told the reporter that at one of the factories in this city tbe sale of hand-made goods was a little over $100,000 annually, 'and that the profit was between 80 and 75 per cent "Why don't other manufacturers embark in this lineP he was askeJ. "Tbe reason is that the demand limited, the field well occupied, and few manufacturers have the capital necessary for carrying on the business, and even thoee who hare the capital dare not undertake the risk. Tbe business is peculiar in that it is one in which a most thorough knowledge^ not only of art but of art taste is necessary aad this not one in a hundred of the practical wall paper men puaieswis ia a sufficient degree to dare to rUk the venture.

PAPER HANGINGS. SKINS AND SKELETONS.

RECONSTRUCTION OF ANIMALS AT $7* THE NATIONAL MUSEUM.

Putting the Dugonj into Proper ShapeHow the Exact Proportions Are Reproduced—A Manikin of Wotjd—

Skeletons and Ejrce

[Washington Star.]

Tbe dugong's hucre form lay stretched at full length upon a platform in the center of the room. The muntjac, the baboon and various other mammals, in a more or less completed state, stood around, and seemed to be watching the man who was giving vicious thrusts with a long iron poker or ramrod through a hole in the patient dugong's back. Overhead swung a big crocodile, ne&Q&im a huge sturgeon was poised in the air, as if he had stopped in an aerial voyage to stare at the man with the poker. This was the workshop of the taxidermist, in one of the buildings attached to the Na tional museum.

The taxidermist, Mr. William T. Hornaday, was engaged in fashioning the head of tbe dugong. One of his assistants was ramming the stuffing home in the body of tbe beast In another part of the room an assistant taxidermist was putting the finishing touches on a little African deer, called a harnessed deer on account of the peculiar markings upon its body, and in another corner an assistant was flaying a rat —a South American rat—that weighed fourteen pounds, and could get away with a whole refrigerator full of provisions in one foray. The dugong, tbe reporter was told, would not be ready to make its public ap pearance probably before August When it has been filled out and assumed the form of life, the dugong will be laid aside for a month to dry and shrink. Then, when well seasoned, the holes in the hide will be patched up with papier mache and tbe bole will be painted a life-like color. This paint will form an artificial substitute for the epidermis, which has been removed. Tie dugong is considered a rare specimen.

As some of our readers may not be familiar with the appearance of these creatures, it may be of interest to state that approaching a dugong from the rear one would be likely to mistake it for a whale. It has a forkoi tail, aud resembles the cetaceans in form. It has two flippers like a seal, and the head would remind person who does not make close scientific distinctions of a walrus. There are two small tusks, which do not protude out of the mouth. These creatures aro hunted on the Australian coast for their oil. It is seldom, however, that the hide of one is obtained perfect enough for the purposes of the taxidermist This dugong, which is about ten feet long, is the only one possessed in this country.

All of the various stages of tho taxidermist's work were illustrated in the different specimens about the work-room. The rat bad just been received from Philadelphia. Before its skin was removed it was laid out on a large sheet of paper, and an outline of its form was drawn from it Its various parts were measured, and the figures' were written down on the paper just ai a tailor writes down tbe measure of a customer who has ordered a suit of cloihes. These data are nseful to the taxidermist in reproducing the exact proportions of the beast Of some animals casts are taken, and afterward the taxidermist can refer to it as a model. It is a practice to secure the cast of one animal of each class, which will make a record useful afterward in treating any creature of that class or family.

The drawing and measurement having been made, the skin is carefully removed. This is then subjected to a bath or pickle, which removes the grease, and still leaves it pliable. Such lifelike results as thoee produced by the modern taxidermists cannot be so easily produced from dry skins. The skin being ready, tho taxidermist first gives bis attention to the animal's legs, stuffing the body out loosely and roughly. There was an ape in this stage. The legs were tolerably firm and postured naturally, but the body was stuffed out roughly. Some of the viscera of straw protruded from a large hole in the animal's abdomen. The taxidermist in treating larger animals constructs a sort of skeleton of wood, which is called a manikin. This frame is built out with plaster or clay and the skin placed over that

Experiments were made some time ago to test the practicability of making a cast of the dead animal and btretching the skin over the ca*t The result'), however, were not satisfactory. The awkward stiffness of death was reproduced too faithfully by the cast When the animal has been filled out roughly the taxidermist begins to work over it carefully, filling in. tamping, distributing tbe stuffing material evenly and bringing out to life-like perfection all tbe peculiarities of form. This process is tedious and requires a thorough study of tbe anatomical peculiarities of the animals treated. In bis work tbe taxidermist must make a study of the movements and mechanism of animals.

Instantaneous photography helps him in this particular and furnishes him with an accurate record of the posture or attitude of animni« under different circumstances. To give the appearanoe of life to a specimen it is necessary to copy some life-like attitude. ly like four down, like

If the legs were to be made simply like four posts, stiff and straight up and dow the legs of the animal in a toy Noah's ark, and tbe body merely stuffed out like a pillow, till it could hold no more stuffing, taxidermy would be a trade easily learned, but as practiced by Mr. Hornaday and modern taxidermists it has attained the dignity of a science.

Separated from Mr. Hornaday's room by a wooden partition is another workshop. One oould fancy, upon peeping into it, that the skeletons after being relieved of their skins in tbe taxidermist's sanctum, assembled in this room to express their indignation at such treatment Skulls, complete skeletons, ribs, vertebrae, and bones of all kinds are scattered about tbe room. From the timbers overhead are suspended long rows of skeletons, representing every corner and croae-roads of creation. Among tbe lot is coiled the sinuous skeleton of python. Tbe bleached boms of a little wl are laid out on a bench on one side of the room. The other tide of the room is taken ap with the boar remains at a huge animal, now in coarse of reconstruction, and looking like the sea-worn skeleton of an old wreck. This is the skeleton of the Arctic aea-oow, steHerine, or rjrttaa. It is a second ooostn of the dugong lying in Mr. Hornaday's room, hot its line now extinct Tbe remains are found on the Wands of Behring's strait Tbe aea-cow has been extinct for about two hundred years.

What Sporting Men Rely On When Lewis R. Redmond, the South Carolina moonshiner, cornered, after for eight years eluding the government official*, was asked to surrender, he exclaimed: "Never, to men who fire at my back!"

Before he was taken, five bullets had gone clear through him, but strange to relate, be got well, in the hands of a rude backwoods nurse."

By the way, if Garfield had been in the hands of a backwoods nurse, he might have lived. A heap of volunteer testimony against the infallibilty of tbe physicians has been accumulating of late, and people are encouraged to do their own doctoring more ana more. It is cheaper and quite as certain. .Before Detective Curtin of Buffalo caught Tom Ballard he "covered" him with his revolver. Tom saw the point and tumbled!

Joe Goss was "covered" a few weeks ago and be tumbled, and so did Dan Mace. Death "fetched em" with that dreaded weapon—kidney disease. But they should nave been lively and drawn first. They conld easily have disarmed tbe monster had they covered him with that dead shot—Warner's safe cure, which, drawn promptly, always takes the prey. It is doubtless true that sport* ing men dread this enemy more than any mishap of their profession, and presumably this explains why tbey as a rule are so partial to that celebrated "dead shot."

Redmond was right. No man should surrender when attacked in the back. Hesbould "draw", face about and proceed to the defence, for such attacks, so common among all classes, will fetch a man every time unless "covered" by that wonderfully successful dead shot."—Sportsman's News.
