SATURDAY. DECEMBER 26.1806.

IF talk was liberation, the Senate would have freed Cuba these many days.

THE war is evidently not over down in Arkansas. Jeff Davis received eighty-si* •otes In that state for presidential elector.

The sanguinary senators are so anxious to free Cuba that they are willing to sacrifice all their wives' relatives to bring about that desirable condition.

THE people of Kansas arc going to heap coals of fire on the heads of the New York and Chicago people, who have ridiculed Kansas because it has placed itself in the hands of the Populists. They are going to send a trainload of provisions to the destitute poor of those two great cities.

THE "common people" are not going to have such a chance to see or hear Mr. Bryan on his lecture tour through the country. His managers will book him only in cities where $3,000 will be deposited in advance for the lecture, of which $1,000 goes to Mr. Bryan and the remainder to the managers. The smaller cities and towns will therefore be left out in making up this season's route.

TIIE votes cast in the recent election have been officially canvassed in all the statas, and according to the tablulation of the returns the total vote resulted as follows: McKinley, 7,109,480 Bryan, «,50#.681 Palmer, 1*2,056 Levering, Prohibition candidate,' 137,174, and Matchett, the Socialist Labor candidate, 885,942. This gives a total vote of 13,924,653, and plurality for McKinley of 600,999. The total vote in 1892 was 12,111,529.

THE Greater Republic of Central America, formed by a union of the republics of Honduras, Nicaraugna and Salvador, was officially recognized by the president on Wednesday, when he received the minister from the new republic. These counties have always been fighting each other, when they had separate goverments, and it, remains to be seen how long their people will get along without trouble under one form of government. Not very long it may be prophecied.

AN effort Is being mads to institute a division of the year into thirteen months, beginning with January 1, 1W00. In that case, twelve months would have twentyeight days and the thirteenth twenty-nine, except leap years, when it would have hirty. The same day of the week would have the same date of the month throughout the year. The changes of the moon would fall about the same dates, and a greater simplicity would prevail in all matters of calculation Kaster, of interest of dates for maturing notes, etc. lxgal holidays, except New Years and birthdays of the present generation would have to be redated. but it is thought the gain would be greater than the loss. Though there are object ions on the grounds of sentiment, the arguments on the ground of utility and simplicity are forcible.

TIIK employment of convict labor, and its competition with free labor in the markets of this country, will form an important topic of discussion, and perhaps of lenislation, ln'fore the coming legislature. A senate committee has been investigating the matter, and will make an elaborate report recommending radical reforms in the management' of our penal institutions, hut will not recommend the working of convicts on the public highways. In this connection New ork state will furnish a valuable lesson to this and other states in the Immediate future, for after the first of January, prison manufactures will bo abolished in all the prisons of that state, What to do with the prisoners, who must be fed and clothed, and treated as humans, Is piunliug the

Industry

of the wardens of

the different institution

If convicts are to be kept at work, employment must be found in some other direction To keep them unemployed will savor of cruelty, besides increasing the burden of their maintenance to the taxpayer*. In justice to the community they should be made to earn their living, and in justice to themselves they should be allowed to do it. With the manufacture of goods that will compete in the markets! with the

products

In this direction, while serving a useful and necessary public purpose, would encounter less opposition from those engaged in gainful avocation than if at work on any other calling. Pressure will be brought to bear to abolish prison manufactures in Indiana's prisons at the completion of contracts at present in force, and there is a possibility that such a measure will no matter what the senatorial committee may recommend ou the subject. The time for convict competition with free labor is past, and Indiana should not be among the last to recognize this fact. Let her be among the first to do so, and then if no other occupation opens for the convicts, let them be put to work improving the roads. The value of every acre of farm land in Indiana would be materially increased if the uniformly good roads were in operation.

THEBE promises to be a whole lot of foolish bills presented to the legislature which meets next month, as indicated by a bill which is said to have been prepared by the association of journeymen barbers of this state, and is intended to regulate the barbers' business. It provides for the appointment of aboard of examiners to con*gist of three persons, by the governor. The members of this board are to receive $3 a day and 10 cents a mile for traveling expenses. The board must meet four times a year in the four principal cities of the State, and the applicants who pass examination must pay $5 a year for a license. Only persons of good habits and over twenty-one years of age will be permitted to engage in the business. Ninety days after the bill becomes a law every barber in the State must file an affidavit with the examining board giving the length of time he has worked at the trade and the different places he has been employed during that time. This is, of course, is but one bill to be presented. As soon as the corn doctors, the horseshoers, the printers, and others, hear of this measure they will doubtless prepare a bill designed to have the state regulate their business.

THE recent decision of the New York Supreme court, that a divorce granted in South Dakota, which has divorce laws that are fearfully and wonderfully peculiar, has no effect in New York state when granted to residents of the latter state, may result in congress taking up the matter of divorces, and adopting an uniform divorce law that will have equal effect in all the states and territories of the country. The same day this was announced a dispatch was published from Oklahoma, which also has a peculiar set of divorce laws, announcing that a prominent resident of New Orleans was in Oklahoma to have set aside a divorce which his wife had secured from him, but of which he knew nothing until he saw published an account of her wedding to another man. The regulations of divorces can be done only by an amendment to the constitution, but there can be no question but that something should be done to control an evil which has become all too common. The temporary residence of ninety days in a state or territory with lax laws on the subject does not seem to be right in securing a divorce, and while the more conservative states might vote against congressional legislation on the subject, the New York justice who rendered the recent opinion in question, gives it as his idea that congress should have control of the marriage and divorce laws. If a man or woman cannot secure a legal divorce in the state of which both are residents, it seems plain that they should not be able to secure them in another state, even though they secure temporary residence there. Congress takes valuable time and spends a great deal of money in legislation that Is far from being as practical as would the enactment of laws regulating divorce procedure.

Deafness Can not bo Cured by local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it Is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be takeu out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which Is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free:

Thirteen.

Augnstin Daly, of whose company Mr. James Lewis was a member far over 26 years, said of him: "It is a coincidence that he was buried on Sept 18, for be always bad the strongest fear of the number 13 and of Friday. I don't know that be was a superstitions *ian in other respects, though, no doubt, be would object to humming the Macbeth music in the theater, but he bad great fears on that point He never wanted to begin anything on the 18th of the month or on Friday. If I had a new part to give him and it would naturally be delivered to him on either of those days he would ask me not to let him have it nntil the next day or to give it to him on the day before. I don't know that be had ever suffered any misfortune ou either of those days to confirm him in his fears. "My own experience has been quite the reverse of unlucky with regard to them. Some of my most successful seasons have been begun on Friday, and he made one of his own greatest successes in a part which he played for the first time on the 18th of the month. It was Sept 18, too, the date of his burial, and it was the beginning of Miss Clara Morris under my engagement, when he played Sir Patrick Lundy in "Man and Wife." The fear, of No. 18 extended further than this. Mr. Lewis would never sleep in room 18 at a hotel. He would rather walk the floor of some other room all night without a bed. And he would never aocept section No. 18 in a sleeping car. That or stateroom No. 18 on a steamer was in his mind a positive invitation to disaster. The person on whom the duty devolved of arranging the details of Mr. Daly's tours had to remember that and look out for it''—Troy Times.

He Asked Too Much.

The waiter accidentally jogged the elbow of the man eating breakfast is tbe restaurant

The morsel that he was about to consume fell to tbe floor. The next moment he gave a startled cry and turned deathly pale.

All was confusion. Tbe proprietor and the occupants of tbe other tables jumped up and rushed to his assistance.

His face bad assumed a bluish hue, which was quickly followed by a greenish color and then by a purplish tinge.

Tbe case looked serious, for he was evidently apoplectio. Finally, to the relief of all, he -was resuscitated.

All demanded an explanation. "I am subjeot to heart disease," he at length exclaimed, "and any severe shock is likely to kill me. It's a wonder I'm alive to tell the tale." "What tale?" they asked eagerly. "Heavens, gentlemen!" he replied, as his cheeks blanched at the recollection, "you'll hardly believe me, but I swear on my oath that when the waiter knocked that piece of bread and butter out of my hand it fell to the floor with the butter side up."

The others surveyed him pityingly. "Something has affected his brain/' they whispered one to the other. "Such a thing is unheard of. It could never have happened."

One by one they drew away and left him alone.—New York World.

Gained His Point.

In the days when her majesty went down to Windsor by road she liked to be driven at a rapid pace—a little too fast to please her escort, especially the offlcors who rode their own horses. A gallant captain, afterward a renowned M. P., was one day in command and riding at the head of his troop. Just in front of him, with his back to the horses of the carriage, sat the Prince of Wales, then a small child. The captain, directly the party started, lifted his hand and shook his fist in the little prince's face. The prince roared with fright, and his royal mother, quite ignorant of the cause, took him on her lap to pacify him. When the prinoe was quiet and resumed his seat, the captain again shook his fist and this was repeated all the way down to Windsor. At the end of the journey the queen learned exactly what had oocurred and issued her command that the officer should never command her escort again. This was just what the captain hoped wonld happen. —St James Gazette.

His Preference.

Her father is a physician and an admirer of culture. But be grows weary now and then of hearing Mabel play scales and five finger exercises. After a half hour of work from her exercise book she turned and said: "Father, I have taken up the study of theory." "Have you?" "Yes. This," she went on, striking a chord, "is a tonio." "Mabel," he answered in a tone of patience sorely tried, "I'm ever so much obliged, but 1 don't tbink that is what I need. Bnt if you had a sedative that you coo Id try on me I'd appreciate it more than tongue can tell."—Washington Star.

The Safety Point In Floors.

Probably less is known by architects and structural engineers regarding the safety of floors than of any other portion of a building. Tbe relative cost of the steel beams in a floor, as compared with the terra cotta or other filling, has caused some builders to go to an extreme in increasing the spans between beam* thus greatly increasing the risk of destruction by fire, even though there may be ample strength in tbe absence of fire.—Engineering News.

Bwlldesl Better Than He Knew.

Mrs. Jack sou—I thought yon EM you trimmed that hat yourself. I'm gore it is just as stylish as if it had been done by a high priced milliner.

Mrs. Johnson (complacently)—-Ye*, I think it has a stylish look myself. You •ee, my husband sat down ©a it accidentally after I bad got done and gave it exactly the right twist.—Boston Ooorier.

An Imitative Monkey.

One of the drollest instances of the monkey's keenness of observation and power of mimicry that we have met with is the following: A retired admiral and his wife living at Cheltenham had a favorite monkey. One day tbe lady, hearing a strange noise in the dining room, looked in to see what it was. The sight which met her eyes was a ludicrous one. Seated in the armchair, with the admiral's smoking cap on bis head and tbe admiral's spectacles on his nose, was the monkey, and in his hand was the open newspaper, which he shook and patted, while he jabbered and gesticulated with great emphasis at the cat, which lay blinking on the hearth rug. It was a clever and oarefully studied imitation of the testy old admiral's tone and manner when reading to his wife some passage from the newspaper which excited his wrath or indignation.

It is strange that so little attempt is made to utilise this strong imitative faculty in monkeys. Tbey might easily be trained to perform as athletes and acrobats. Some 50 years ago an Italian oount, who had'a villa on tbe shore of Lake Albano, kept a monkey which he had taught both to row and sail a small skiff. The monkey used to navigate this tiny craft with great skill, but unfortunately one day, when olimbing the mast he capsized the boat and was drowned. As jockeys, monkeys might surely be made useful and would fulfil every purpose for which the manikins who ride on race horses are artificially stunted and sweated.—Chambers' Journal.

Lighthouse Lights.

In a series of papers contributed to Engineering by Du Riche Preller on lighthouses in Europe the remarkable statement is made that the luminous range of alight of 500,000 candle power in tbe Mediterranean (44 miles) is equal to that of 5,000,000 candles in the ohannel—equal to a ratio of one to ten— hence, it is added, that with tbe exception of tbe electric flashing light of Planier, near Marseilles, of 600,000 candle power, the most powerful mineral oil lights recently installed on the French, Corsican, Algerian and Tunisian ocasts of the Mediterranean do not exceed 85,000 candle power, having a luminous range of about 80 miles in average weather. On the other hand, in the channel and in the bay of Bisoay the largest mineral oil lights have luminous powers up to about 200,000, and the electric lighting flash lights up to 22,500,000 and 87,500,000 candles. Further, the maximum light of French lighthouse towers—that is, the height of the focus above ground—varies from about 50 to 70 meters, but some towers are, of oourse, on very elevated positions, so that, taking the height of the focus above the sea level, the highest light that of Cape Bream, is 751- feet above the high water sea level, while its luminous power is 6,000 candles and its luminous range 25 miles. This light 1b an oil light, and the geographical range, or direct visibility of such lights on high elevations, is usually in excess of their luminous range, the reverse of this, however, being commonly the case with electrio ooast lights.

Machinery Lubrication.

The results of some valuable experiments on the lubrication of machinery bearings have been set forth by Mr. Dewrance in an address before the Civil Engineers' institute, London. His observations show that olive oil becomes blaok and thick after passing through tbe bearings several times. This oil, after filtration, was composed of 16 per cent of oleate of lead, 9.57 per cent of oleate of acid and 74.62 per cent of olive oil and glycerin, the oleate acid in the olive oil appearing to attack lead, zinc and copper with great activity. Thus disks of metals used in the manufacture of bearings were immersed in oleate acid, occasionally drawn up out of the acid so as to be exposed to the air. Lead and zino rapidly corroded away, copper was corroded to a loss extent while tin and antimony were not appreciably affected. In regard to the compressibility of alloys, it is suggested by this authority that no alloy be used until it is satisfactorily demonstrated that its point of first yield is considerably above the greatest load or shock to which it wiil be subjected in use. In testing the effect upon soft metal bearings when the shaft sustained a heavy pressure a piece of iron was found to leave no mark upon a surface softer than itself.

Rome's Great Fire.

In A. D. 64, 10 of tbe 14 municipal districts of Rome were destroyed by a conflagration instigated, it is said, by the Emperor Nero. The number of lives lost is known to amount up into the hundreds, but the value of the property destroyed cannot even be estimated. By the emperor's command, thousands of Romans rendered homeless and destitute were employed in removing the debris and rebuilding tbe burned city. Nero, to divert tbe odium of the crime from himself, charged it upon the Christians, and thus began one of the greatest persecutions in tbe history of the early Christian church.

Theories of the Jaok-o'-lanterns.

The scientists have put forward theories to aocount for the appearance of the will-o'-tfce-wisp, or jack-o'-lantern lights. One of these is that they are due to pbosphureted hydrogen gas, which possesses the peculiar power of spontaneous ignition on coming in contaot with dry atmospheric air. This gas could bo easily generated by the decomposition of animal matter in marshy

Boil,

The secoud theory is that such lights are due to light carburetod hydrogen gas, such as might arise from decaying grass, leaves, etc.

While these theories have been advanced they have never been proved to be oorrect neither has the moving away phenomenon when approached or that of their spontaneous ignition ever been explained. The ohemist and experimenters in general are unanimoup in the conclusion that jack-o'-lanterns cannot be artificially produced Other names for this light are friar's lantern, grave light and fool's fire.—St Louis Republic.

The English Soldier.

Tommy Atkins knows of many ways by which he may add to his regulation pay of a shilling a day. He is a shrewd individual, and knows his worth, and frequently realizes quite a nice little sam by "doing a bit outside.

Smoking concerts in publio bouse® are of almost daily occurrence in garrison towns. On those occasions a pianist and a chairman are indispensable, and the landlord finds it welJ worth his while to induce a soldier to attend, for the presence of a redcoat is usually popular among civilians.

At theaters and musio halls, too, Tommy finds himself appreciated. He oan take a hand in the orchestra, wbilo a man who can act tbo soldier to the life, and will bring his own uniform with him, will find a ready wage awaiting him.

Many hotel proprietors employ soldiers as waiters and find that as smart serving men they are thoroughly appreciated. In fact, Tommy Atkins can turn his band to anything, even to helping bootmakers make boots. Pour son's Weekly.

Ills Excuse Ihsufliclont.

The witty remarks of Jurigo Craig Biddle, if gathered together, would fill a good sized volume. Here is a good one gotten off by him recently while sitting in the quarter sessions court: A German juryman asked to be excused from serving ou the jury. "Why?" atked tho judge. "Well, your honor, I don't understand good English." "Ob, you will do,'•replied the judge. "You won't hear much good English here
