London, Dec, 20.—In a long letter to Sir Francis DeWinton, just published, written at Oaala, August 31st, H. M. Stanley strongly objects to tho tone of a batch of newspaper clippings he had received, commenting, as ho expressed it, with utter lack of common sense and disregard for accuracy upou his expedition. He dwells at length upon the indecision of Emin Pasha, whioh cost him (Stanley) a journey of 1,300 miles to relieve Barttelot s command with his own, Ilo justifies the payment of the salary of £30 to Tippo Tibb to avert a desolating war, aud declared that if both parties were honest in their actions peace will be oontinued indefinitely. Stanley is especially bitter in rebuking those in England who had lost faith iu his steadfastness of purpose to tho extent of crediting the rumors that he was marching in the direction of Khartoum, and treats at length of Barttelot removing entirely the impression that his previous letters were reflections on tho major's conduct. He admits that Barttelot only needed qualities to be gained in do other way than by long experience in Afriea, to extricate himself from his dilemma. He highly eulogises the major's high qualities. He knew that Barttelot was of au un* forbearing disposition and had intended to keep him with himself, but necessity compelled his being left behind. Barttelot was ignorant of tho language of the natives with him and in whose territory he was, and Slanley thinks that the interpreter msy have played him false, thus occasioning a coolness which wss nevor healed, and which led to his death. Ho quotes in detail the instructions he gave Barttolot, aud tin- ally deuics emphatically the alleged Congo atrocities, Manyema cannibalism' tbe photographing of a woman during her execution, eto. During tho entiro expedition, he asserts, he executed only four men, THE DOMINION DEBT. Ottawa, Deo. 10.—The public accounts fur the Dominion appeared today. The net debt of tho Dominion on the 30th uf June, 1880, was $237,- 637,041, showing an increase of 82 ,* 098.683, which is accounted for by charging iu round numbers four millions and a half to railways, canals and Northwest rebellion, nearly one mill* ion and a half to discounts and expenses connected with.the loan of 1888, ten thousand and a half to balance of Monnonite loan cancelled and railway subsidies, aud sundries about nine hundred, less sinking funds and other payments amounting to about threo millions and a half. OREAT STEAMSHIP COMPANY.* Buenos Ayres (via Panama), Doc. 14.—The Argentine, Uruguay and Union Steamship Company, just formed hen with a capita) of 920,000,000 in gold, has already placed in Europo orders for a Beet of thirty vessels, ranging in tonnage from five to 0,500 tons, with a guaranteed speed of 12 to 20 knots per hour. Four of tho largest vessels will be placed in service between, this city and New York, two of the smaller size will run to Pensacola, Florida* two othors to some Atlantio port, probably Newport and Wilmington or Port Hoyal; four of tho fleet will ply on inland watora or down the Patagonian coast. The three largest will fly the Argentine or Paraguay colors, the governments of these republics guaranteeing the company an annual dividend of 3& per cunt, on the capital stock. YULE TIDE. FROM VICTORIA, The Wi-cckeil Iilnbo Floats off llie Mocks. A Tuk Attempts io Tow Her In bnt Falls. Special io Tub Columbian. Victoria, Deo. 21.—When tho Idaho ilufitf.il from Rosedale reef yestorday there was a scramble to procure u steamer to secure tho wreck. The salvage wuuld amount to a goodly sum in case of being successful in saving her. No steamer was available except tho small steamer Aleit. She started aud got the Idaho in tow. Her engines were not powerful enough to bring the wreck to port, and the wind and tide slowly but surely drifted both but to the straits. Finally the Alert whs forced to give up the struggle, und abandoned tho Idaho off Beechy bay. Tho derelict then kept her way towards the broad Pacific. Later the tug Pilot went in search of the wanderer, determined if found to bring her to port. She haB not been heard from so far, and it is thought tho Idaho has been daahed to pieces on tho rock bound coast at the southern extremity of the island. The Sliortcst Bonte. A correspondent of the Blaine Jour- mil says: "Tho people of Victoria are desirous of shortening the railroad time between their city and the east. Now, while they are at it, why not take the shortest line of the last proposed, and run a steamer-from Victoria to the international boundary line at Blaine, then build a railroad from the cornor post there up through Hall's Prairie aud Langley Prairio to the Mission bridge. This routo would be thirty miles shorter by sea than the Vancouver route, and would save two hours' time. Thero are uo hills to climb, and no largo bridges to build this way. This would be shorter than tho Whatcom route, and then the Victoria passengers would not have to cross tho boundary line as thoy would via Whatcom," The Anthracite Coal Co, Relative to the report telegraphed from Winnipeg that tho negotiations for tho purchase of the Anthracite Coal Mining Company's property by an English syndicate had fallen through, Mr. James O'Connor, of Winnipeg, the original owner of the property, imd who atill retains a largo interest in it, Baid in Ottawa a few days ago lhat the report wns untrue. He met Mr. McLeod Stewart in St. Paul ou Monday, and although negotiations were not quite completed, Mr. Stewart was confident they would be before the option expired on Tuesday evening. Mr. O'Connor left St. Paul on Tuesday, and as he haa not heard to the contrary since, believes the sale was completed, He says the report was originally telegraphed from Esu Claire, Wis., to the Winnipeg papers, and contradicted next day. Subsequently Mr. McLeod Stewart telegraphed from St. Paul that the deal is not off. The Dominion Illustrated. St. Thomas, Ont., St. John, N. B., and the splendid elevators of Messrs. J. B.

Tho announcement from the athletic club that matches were being mndo fur encounters in tho fistic arena has brought into town thirty or forty chnmpions and ox-ohampinns of tho "manly art," who upon their arrival cau find no qualification save that thoy aro honest as any man that ever cut a throat. Within the past ten days men have boen found murdered by the roadside; thoy havo been held up and robbed; houses have beeu broken into and women and children frightened almost to death by their cowardly acts. They are becoming bolder each day until it has become unbearable. Something must bo done with this olass of vags and desperadoes or the citizens of the Bay will bo compelled to take the mutter in hand and deal out summary justice. In 1883 the city of Seattle, when no larger than Whatcom, becamo infested with tho samo olass and soon put a quietus to that kind of business by rising en masse nnd hang* ing a trio to scantlings on tho famous maple trees. If the police officers of tho Bay are powerless to protect our citizons and their proporty from this class of brutes, let others bo appointed tn assist in the work of driving them away.—Whatcom Bulletin. ■ Constable Griggs, of Hamilton, Ont., who was reported missing, has boen hoard from in Dakota, Ho states he does not know what caused him to leavo Hamilton, but ho will not return.

There was a good sprinkling of pedestrians on the sidewalks this morning when The Columbian reporter emerged from his quarters sharpening the weapon that is mightier than the sword or the pen, viz., the pencil. The scribe sniffed tho keen morning air and noted the bustle on the streets — this in no uogallant reflection on the ladies—and drawing inspiration from the bus*/ scene he strode off down the avenuo in search of more write-upable establishments. The familiar sign of T. J. TRAPP & CO. caught his eye. and he turned in thero aud found that this firm iB making a show of fine plated ware that eomes dangerously close to boing the best in tho city. There are elegant silver services for dinner and tea, and a multitude of table nick-nacks, in every shape and pattern. Sugar bowls, cream jugs, salt cellars, celery dishes, epergnes, sugar tongs, butter knives, silver spoons, forks and table knives; splendid carving sets complete in fino case*, silver mounted and buck horn handled, and with steel of the best quality. In napkin rings there is a bewildering and well selected stock to suit the most fastidious taste as well as that of the man who "don't care." In silver- plated casters and cruet stands the firm' shows a fine assortment, which would be hard (o beat anywhere, and the glassware is of the best eut quality. Messrs. Trapp & Co., with commend* able and characteristic enterprise, have also imported direct from the east a heavy consignment of ehoiee furniture of all descriptions especially for the Ohistmas business. The shipment includes drawing, dining, hall and bedroom furniture of elegant designs well and substantially made and at prices calculated to astound all intending purchasers by their cheapness. This fine lot of furniture is displayed to the bett advantage in the large and well-lighted wureroom at the corner of Clarkson and Lome streets, where it oan be viewed by anyone wishing to look at really fino home furnishings. An especially creditable display of beautiful house lamps is also made by the firm; the designs and ornamentation being the latest and hest. When lighted these pretty pieces of use and ornament shed a full, clear, yet softened glow ovor the room, an effect obtained by means of many-colored shades. No house can afford to be without this evidonco of good tnsto at the figures which Trapp & Co. ask for them. The window exhibit of this firm is very fine and will be sure to attract a large share of publio notice and favorable comment during the Christmas week, IHE QLOBB HOUSa was the next emporium of Westminster's mercantile wealth that the reporter visited. And he got a remarkably good insight into what a first-class dry goods and railliney stock . ihould be. The house makes a specialty of children's bonnets, and a lavish display is made of those pretty articles. This is certainly the place to take the children to get head gear; they are in overy style and beautifully trimmed and finished in silk, cashmere and wool. In ribbons alao the Globe House claims to lead the way in Westminster and anyone who takes a look at their stock cannot "faille" to be impressed. They are in all shades, widths and textures, silk satin, velvet; plain and fancy, variegated and self colors. A fine show of silk handkerchiefs is also made. Also in gloves of the best makes and most favorite shades; and in hosiery there is a wide range. Somo extremely handsome specimens of English imported fans can also be seen, and tho stock of thoso articles is both attractive and extensive, ln goods for presentation, peculiar to Chriamas season this houso has a capital exhibit, and the selection includes many novelties. Wool shawls and "fascinators," a kiud of wool hood, are strong linos with the Globe, as also silk, which they carry in all tho finest grades, surah, soio de Lyons, merveil- leux, watered, gros grain, broche and striped. In plushes there is a fine variety, comprising every shade and quality ; and the same can be said of silk velvets. The Globe House claims to be the leading millinery establish* ment in tho city and a glance at their stock will go far to justify the olaim. The firm imports directly from London and Paris and has some gems of bonnets in stock, truo specimens of French nrt. They have also a fine stock ot feathers, plumes, wings, aigrettes, and one of tho finest stocks of evening flowers and evening gloves in all shades, in the province. The line of ladies underclothing is largo and woll* selected and is under the superintendence of Mrs, Rao. In mantles and cloaks, infants' robes and veilings there are splendid stocks, worth a visit from ull requiring goods of that kind. It would be useless to enumerate the thousand other fine specialties of the Globe House, but it can safely be Baid that there are few better stocked warehouses on the cosst than this well- known establishment. zed. h. hall. The reporter felt that his foot was on his native heath when he entered the sanctum of books and periodicals presided over by the genial Mr. Zed. S, Hall, who has a smile of welcome for everybody, but who is specially suave to the genus reporter. On discovering what the quill-driver was after, Mr, Hall at once began to lead that worthy an exciting steeplechase in and out of boxes, books, albums, from one shelf to another until the latter gasped between his shorthand notes, "hold, enough." They then took the matter moro calmly and the reporter had a chance to linger snd admire tho lovely artioles of art and literature and vortue with whioh the fine, oapacious store overflows. In the vast domain of books, Hall's store oan furnish you with anything, from a yellow paper covered copy of "The Mysteries of Udolpho," at fifteen cents, and eheap at half the price, up to Chateaubriand's "Atala, gorgeously and grotesquely illustrated by Gustave Dure. The book-wormish reporter oould not resist the temptation to gloat over the literary riches on the spacious shelves. There are books for all classes of renders, adult and juvenile* and the Pansy books, something quite new, figure in prominent quantities on the shelves. Iu the way of literary souvenirs, Mr. Hall hu a selection worthy of a metropolitan house; these goods are the product of the famous Boston, New York and London firms, and interleaved with the letter press are ex- auisite reproductions of wator-color drawings. Prang's books, in particular, are worth going to see, even if a purchase is not intended. They are true gems of art. In children's picture books and picture blocks, Mr. Hall has a magnificent range, most judiciously selected, and which eannot fail to meet with a tremendous sale. The display of religious books. Oatholio and Ohurch of England prayer books, Presbyterian and Methodist psalm and hymn books, bound in rus- sia, calf and morocco, and suitable for gifts, is a grand range, and will be sure to attract much publio inspection. The album in all its variations of quality, prioe and style is one of Mr. Hall's specialties; there are some beauties in tne selection. In Christmas cards Mr. Hall lays claim to having one of the finest displays in the provlnoe, and they have been chosen with an amount of artistic taste that is surprising; they range from the cheapest up to the most gorgeous and elaborate specimens of Eigh-clitBB art The sale of Christmas publications this season reached, in Mr. Hall's establishment, tbe enormous total of 600 copies, including such issues as Figaro, Paris Illustre, Graphic, London Illustrated Newi, Toronto Globe, Montreal Star, and others, all ranging over 60 oents per copy, the two tint being $1.60 per copy. There is one rather unusual but very interesting line of goods that Mr. Hall takes pleasure in showing and expatiating upon, and that is opera glasses; he has those articles from the smallest to the most powerful; one of them is a perfect gem in its way, being so small that it oan almost be carried in the vest pooket, yet ao powerful that tbe reporter who took a look through it could distinguish the rugged inequalities and pine trees on the Pitt Mountains with ease. Mr. Hall's window display is too well known, and has received so mnch publio comment already as to render further description unnecessary. d. s. CURTIS & co. bave undoubtedly a splendid display of Christmas specialties in the way of travelling, toilet, and dressing asses. Besides being the largest it is also, we believe one of the best in the province. The firm has also a fine display of perfumes especially suitablo for Christmas presents and comprising many new kinds as well as all tbe old favorites of established reputation. These goods are put op ia costly cut glass bottles some of them enclosed in pretty basket work and tastefully decorated with ribbons, Others are in stone ware bottles beautifully painted. For a nice present or useful toilet article of any kind D. S, Curtis & Co's is one of the best places in the oity to make in I***1?' -■ -•■ The Hew B.C. Cathedral. Bt Ber, Bishop Lommens returned from the east yesterday afternoon, bringing with him photographs of the Oatholio church at Longueuil, near Montreal, whioh hu been selected u tho model of the new Roman Oatholio cathedral to be erected in Victoria. The Longueuil church hu only been recently completed, and is recognized u one of the prettiest churches in the province of Quebeo. The architeota were Messrs Perrault & Misnard, of Montreal, the most eminent designers of ohurch edifices in the Dominion, and to that firm Bishop Lemmens entrusted the tuk of preparing plans similar to the Longueuil ohuroh, bot on a smaller scale, forthe cathedrel in Viotoria. These plans are now being prepared and will be forwarded here io January, when tenders will be invited for the construction of the edifice. The new cathedral will bo of the Gothic style of architecture, with three spires, varying in height, the top of the principal spire, or steeple, being 176 feet from the (Round, The front of tbe edifice will be flanked by two towers, and in the centre, over the main entrance, wilt be a statue of St Andrew. The churoh wilt have a anting capacity of about 1,000, and will contain two galleries, one above the otber. The dimensions of the interior will be 144 feet long, with an average width of about 70 feet, and 63 feet to arch of ceiling. It hu not yet been deoided whether the structure will be built entirely of stone, or stone and briok. The new ohuroh will be erected on the northwest corner of Blan- chard aud View streets, tbe front of the edifice feeing Blauchard atreet. The towers will afford ample room for chimes and bells, which will be added at no distant date after the completion of the cathedral.—Friday's Colonist. The Mail uys of Hon.

Ool, Prior showed to the minister's satisfaction that British Colombia had no vessels capable of doing a paying trade to Sound ports, and that oven if there were enough business to keep them employed Canadian vessels could onlj* handle the bonded freight, as the United Statu authorities would not permit them to cout, and that the bonded freight alone would never pay. Under these circumstances the minister will allow American boats to continue carrying goods on condition that the Northern Pacific Railway Co. pay the salary of a Oanadian customs official who will be stationed at Tacoma to see that the seals are not broken, and the freight properly transhipped. Col. Prior thinks that the Northern Pacifio will not object to this propoul, as at present they pay the ulary of a Canadian customs officer at Duluth, and the Grand Trunk and Oanadian Pacifio each pay an officer at Chiosgo. Whilo Ool. Prior would have bun better pleued if the order wu entirely cancelled, yet he considers the arrangement utisfactory.

Till' great question beforo tho local house this winter will undoubtedly, ns hi.3 been pointed out before, be tho redistribution of seats. It is important to bear this in mind, for a general redistribution is not a thing that wii! occur again very soon, certainly not during tlio continuation of the next parliamentary term that will commence sometime next year. Whatever is dono at James Bay at tho forthcoming and last session of tho present parliament mnst fix tho representation of the respective cities nnd districts of the provinco for ut least four years thereafter. It behooves, thon, not only our representatives, but every elector and citizen to take an intelligent and active interest in this question, and from this timo forward at least to put forth evory legitimate effort to insure a just and equal redistribution throughout the province, and especially that Westminster city and district should secure, what, notoriously, they never have received before, their simple rights in the matter. Such has beon tho progress of this city and district, including Vancouver, in the last three or four years that the total representation possessed by the wealthiest, and most populous and important section of tho mainland and of the province is absurdly in adequate as compared with nearly every other olectoral district in the provinco. Of course, the fact that we have left our, comparatively, small representation in the first place so far behind, could not very well have been helped heretofore, and is not altogether to be regret- tod, hut the opportunity which will so soon be offered to remedy tliis unsatisfactory state of things must be grasped and improved to the ut most. Although tho redistribution to ho made should bo based on population, it will be impossible to obtain accurate figures for the purpose at this time, and tlie. provincial voters' lists will in ull probability be taken us lhe standard. Tho importance will thus be seen at a glance of having every namo obtainable placed upon theso lists. It is to bo hoped that patriotic individuals throughout the cities and district!! will exert themselves to this laudable end. Not a moment should be lost in having every otherwiso qualified elector secure his name upon tho register. There will bo a month or two yet in which to do effective and telling work in tliis direction, and the various municipalities could not further their own interests better than to take this mutter in hand, and depute speoial canvassers to add names to the voters' register. and costumo. No ono over yet heard a double entendre from the lips of a Oilbortian character, and no ono could over accuse him of having allowed his actors a liberty bordering on tho licenseof indecency, Arthur Sullivan writes tho music for the libretto late at night, when all London is asleep and tho lust vehicle haB rumbled away past his door in Victoria Btreet. There in the heart of the noisy metropolis was the "Lost Chord" written, and there is all or nearly all of his work done. Sir Arthur was knighted for his eminent services to the musical art in the year 1883, and never was a distinction more deserved than in his case, for he has succeeded not merely in making English comic opera unique, but his services to church and choral harmony have been wido reaching. In addition, it may bo stated, that as a composer of ballad and part songs he certainly has few equals and not a living rival. Dramatic and musical art has gained much by the partnership of Gilbert and Sullivan, NOTES AND COMMENTS.

Iu observations with kites and balloons, Prof. Lconhard Wober haB found that tho atmosphere is negatively electrified up to a height of about 100 yards, beyond which it is positively electrified in a degree increasing very rapidly with the distance from the earth. The negative electrification of the lower strata of air is attributed to the presence of germs and dust particles.

In tho Plumbing lino, tinsmithing work is done on the premises, as usual, by good workmen; no snide boys trusted with such important work. doo!7to Tin-: announcement made over the wires, of another successful comic opera, tho joint work of Arthur Sullivan and William Schwenck Gilbert, deserves n more than passing attention. It is many years since the trifle, ''Trial by Jury," was put on the stage ac the Opera Oo- miquo theatre, London, but the appearance of that operatta inaugurated a series of more pretentious works from the pens of tho gifted collaborators Mr, Gilbert first made his mark as it writer of verse for Fim, and the republication of the Bab Ballads, in volume form, mado his name almost famous. In 1870 he commenced writing for the stage, "The Palace of Truth," being almost liii; first dramatic effort. After the success of "Trial by Jury," for which Sullivan supplied the music, the two struck up a dramatic partnership, and the world for tho past ten years lias been laughing more or less nil the time nt Gilbertian fun spiced with music a ta Sullivan. "The Sorcery," "Pirates of Penzance," "Patience," "lolanthe," "Princess Ida," "Ituddigore," "Mikado," and "Tho Gondoliers," havo followed each other in as rapid succession as their popularity would al low, and, whilst thesooperas ha vekept tho Savoy Theatro running, they havo enriched not merely tho author and composer but the lessee, Mr. D'Oyloy Oa'rto, also. It is certainly littlo Bhort of marvellous that tbeso two should suit each other so perfectly, Tho peculiar humor of Mr. Gilbert seems to be interpreted ad rairably by the music of Sir Arthur Sullivan. Until 1875 the latter was known only as an eminent composer of cantatas and church music, but in that year his connection with Mr. Gilbert proved beyond question that English opera was not a thing unattainable. It must be said, too, that these authors have always been most happy in the artists who have been cast for the leading parts in their operas. George Grossmith for years Was tho very soul of Gilbert's leading characters and interpreted the dry fun in inimitable style, and what lio was, pre-eminently, his fellow actors havo been, and are in a lesser degree, Mr. Gilbert takes the greatest pains in the production of his dramatic works, being present at all the principal rehearsals, and minutely superintending all details as to scenery. A chimney 459 feet high is being built for the Imperial Smelting Works, near Freiberg, Saxony. Tho shaft is round, with a pedestal 39 feet square at the base and 29 feet high, and the internal diameter is 16 feet. The works are 197 feet lower than the base of the chimney, and at such a distance away that nu exhaust channel 3280 feet long is required to connect works and chimney. The chimney will cost about 830,000; the connecting flue nearly as much more. Tho great chimney at Glasgow, Scotland, is 454 feet high, and the tallest in America, at Kearny, N. J., is 335 feet high. Parisians have been entertained by a remarkable artist, who displays wonderful skill in her peculiar form of painting.

O. do2Cd&w'm An apparatus for making images visible at an indefinite distance by means of tho electric current has been described by Herr E. Liese- gang, of Dusseldorf. Light striking one or moro platinum, silver or copper plates arranged in the form of a galvanic element gives rise to an electric current * and when the exposed plates consist of a large number of tine insulated wires, the current is produced in the part where the light falls, and may be conducted by the wires to the samo parts of a similar plate at a distance. If the second plate is coated with a substance undergoing visible change through galvanic decomposition, an imago thrown by a lens on the first plate is recorded on tbe distant plate. Referring to a bill introduced in the British parliament, having for its object the prevention of improvident marriages, the Louisville Courier-Journal pronounces it "a howling pieco of tyranny," and adds: "Under the American eaglo every mun, and some boys, may go into domestic life and trust to luck for provisioning an ever increasing family. What, would become of charitable institutions under n des potio system requiring every man to know how to honestly support his offspring K" Of course this is ironical, and equally of courso thero is a crying (literally) need for some restraint (moral and social if not legislative) on the reoklesBtiess with which too often the marriago relation is assumed.

Comparatively Unknown Faots] About a Great Industry, Gam-con of tha Flu Supply Required l>jj Amurlcun Manntkotiu-ers-The Waste- fulness of Western Farmers-now the Twino Is Hade* It is estimated, uiys the* New York Sun,] that there are about eight million dollars' worth of flax and hemp strings mode in this country every year, not the big sorts of strings that aro dignified hy special titles suoh as linos, ropes, cable and hawser--, but just strings that are lumped together undor the broad name of twines, And, besides, there aro great -quantities of cotton strings, ana here and thoro still a fow paper onos, though the latter-invented whon cotton was so high priced during •'the war, and thon quito common-are now ucldom seen. ' Thoro aro eight twine factories, tnree ln tho upper part of this State, two io Massachusetts, two iu Newark, and one, tho largest, in Kew York City. This latter employs 600 hands, and turns out H,000| pounds por diem of finished twines and shoo thread, ranging in valuo from 14 cents to' (1.50 por pound. In addition to these eight, there are scattered through tho East several small establishments, but there are nono, largo or small, In tho West and South. Thoao statistics are perhaps a littlo dry, but tho clammy solidity of cold fact seems neceaaary to givo some idea of how vory big, after all, ts this Interest that few por* sons notdlreotly concerned with it rertiln as boing of an especial importance. Mr. Eindo, tho genoral manager of the; factory, accords somo interesting foots concerning tho industry. He saya: 11 We use only flax and hemp. We have experimented with othor fibers, principally ramie, but they did not work well The nocossary processes of manufacture sooraed to tako all thoir strength out of tbem. Cotton string is mode in tho cotton factories, not by tho twine makers. Most of the flax that wo uso is imported, tho flnest grades from Holland and France, and its cost is from £40 to £76 sterling per ton. Flax tow, which we also uso, costs 10 or 13 cents por pound. Tho import duty on flax is K0 per ton for tbo flno hackled articlo, 130 'per ton on tho crude, and $10 por ton on tow. Bomo flax is supplied in this country, but not a great deal. The best source of supply that wo havo on this continent is from Rensselaer County, in this State, and some comes also from Canada. Hundreds and thousands of tons of flax straw are burned up annually by our Western farmers. Thoy! Grow it for tho sake of the sood and will not tako tbe trouble to save tho valuable fiber from the straw. In Canada the Ontario millers pay the farmers $10 per acre for flax land, tbo miller supplying the seed SHOPPING IN PARIS. (Hive Logan Buys It In a Wild and Pro* Wlsououf Scramble.

You havo como, soon and had your funds conquered from you; jnow you may go or stay; no ono needs you further. Perhaps you will fool diBpoccd to rest awhllo in the luxuriously furnished salon do lecture of tho establishment and read the morning papers. Unfortunately, it is crowded, like overy other placo on tbo premises. Thereadiug-roomsof tho groat Fronch shops are beginning to figuro in the works of contemporaneous Fronch novelists as a convenient place of illicit rendezvous. A glance around ouo of thom ofton ! shows couples of fact, not fiction, whose demeanor favors tho supposition that they havo met by appointment and not "by chance." Shopping is a great enjoyment to somo women, a groat bore to others; both classes (prefer tho shops to which tbey aro accustomed. There are hundreds of women in New York who live In hotels and boarding- houses who spend the wholo day and evory j day in what they coll shopping, tbat is to ! say, they go into stores and look at goods for hours just as an amusement. They don't buy what they see; they only see what they would like to buy. Tho passion has othor varieties. I know a man who used to go and look at every house he could hoar of that was to let or for sale, trying to see how near he could find a houso that was liko tho houso ho would livo in if he was rich, He found a good many houses; the only trouble was to find the money for thom. So it is with many New York women who go shopping. Fortunately for tbem the clerks in New York are patient, and will toko the leisurely murmured excuse, "Well, I'll think it ovor," as as sufficient offset for getting down and doing up again a wholo cargo of dry-goods, London shop-keepers expect thoir customers to know what they want and tako it if __11-_^^__1_11B11„ <tb.ey find it; French shop-keepors display and gathering tho crop, while all tho farmor niore wares on their counters thon they does Is to plow tho land and seed it in. |**avo Bot on ■*-*eir shelves, in the hope of Thore both seed and fiber aro carefully [tempting weak human nature—tho woak saved, and it is much to be regretted thati-*6111*1****0 nature-tobuy what is shown, our agriculturists aro not equally thrifty, (whether needed or not.

Druggists. Wxllb, IUcninDSONiftCo., . Mom-uu has beon planted in flax for twenty years, and yields as much now as over. "Wo got a good deal of hemp from tucky, nnd soma from Missouri and Illinois, but aro forced to depend mainly upon foroign supply. Our native homp is worth 4120 per ton unhaeklod, or about 10 cents por pound unhackled, while tho beat from abroad—the Italian—costs £40 per ton. Tbo duty is $35 por ton. Our Kentuoky hemp is of a strong and long fiber, generally about 13 feet long, but has a dark, dirty brown color. Thero is no reason, however, why it should not bo produced as fino and whito as tho Italian. I remember seeing, in 1810, somo hemp grown by Honry Clay on his plantation, and prepared for the market undor htrt miporvlHion, which was equal to any imported. Tho next best hemp to the Italian is tho Gorman. Tho Russian is dbarso and dark. By bleaching and softening its fibers wo oro enabled to mako twine from homp that is so smooth, strong and flno tbat lt is hardly distinguishable from llnon twine, still for tho best goods, such as "harness twino" or "loom cord" ond fishing lines, we employ only tho purest and best flax For certain grades of twino flax and hemp are used togothor, and somo of our small, brightly colored cords, used for the ornamental tying up of packages, aro made wholly of hemp, which takes and retains bright dyes much better than flax does," Superintendent ftinde, a big, good-natured, and good-looking young giant led tho wav Into a realm of clatter, roar, rattle and dust, tho flrst innrcs lion at sight of which wa■■ that it waB an inc/.trlcablo confusion ot girla and machinery, that the girts all had tholr hair in curl papers, and that they weroafino lot of sturdy-armed young Ama- ions. "The flax fiber,".' he uid, "is flrat combed, or, as it Is technically termed, 'scutched.* Then It goes to the 'spread board,' whoro tt ls laid out straight, and of as uniform a thickness as possible, ln four lines, on endless aprons that carry tt up to hackle-like tooth, that told tt straight and steady whilo it Is subjected tothe drawing action of rollers moving faster than the rato ot its delivery. Tho soft, even band of straight fibers thus formed Is called a 'silvor.* Twelvo of these aro put Into a 'drawing frame,- extended and delivered as ono, and this operation Is repeated three times, twelvo 'silvers- each time boing drawn into ono which ts not thicker than ono of tho twolvo had been before drawing. By this timo tho fibers are all straight and disposed with perfect evenness. The 'sliver' is now lightly twisted, and to becomes a 'rove,1 ready for tho spinning frame. Tho processes of spinning and twisting strands together for tho attainment ot any desired degree of stoutness aro too generally understood to be worth detailing. Hemp Is worked up la the samo1 way as flax Tow, whtch ia only usod for tho coarsest and cheapest strings, Is carded, liko cotton, instead of being put upon tho spread board." A Remedy for Hydrophobia. An agod Gorman forester publishes ln tho Leipzig Journal a rtwlpo for tho euro ot hydrophobia In men and animals, | Ilo states that he has saved the livos of sovoral men and many animals from a horrible death by the use of It. Tho bito must be bathed as soon as possible wtth warm vinegar and water, and when this has dried a few drops ot muriatic aold poured upon the wound will destroy tho potspn ot the saliva, and relieve tho pationt from all preient or future danger. ^ ...

How to Make an Instrument with Which You Can Seo Under Witter. No doubt a good mauy of our boys und girls aro Ignorant of the fact thut thoy cat), with vory llttio trouble and at almost no expense, construct an Instrument with which tboy can plainly seo what is going on under tho water over which thoy sail tbelr boats. The very idea of such a thing Is attractive, and tho St. Louis Post-Dispatch tolls how it can bo dono. Tho wator telescope may bo made of wood or of tin, whichever you prefer, and wo will describe both. Tho tin Is bottor, because it Ib lighter and moro easily handled. Its manufacture is vory simple. Got a tinsmith to mako for you a funncl-shapod tin horn ubout three toot long, It should bo eight or ton niches in diameter at tho bottom and broad onough at tho top for both cyos to look into. Into the botton put a pieco of glass cut to fit andmnko it perfectly water-tight Loavo tho top opon. The inside should bo painted black to prevent lho reflection of tho light upon tho surface of tbo tin. Around the outsido of tho bottom solder on soveral sinkers to offset tho buoyancy of tho air in the water-tight horn aud make it easier to submerge. If it is uot convenient to get a round piece of glass, havo tho largo end made squaro and imu square glass. That's all thoro is of it, ami whon you sink the Instrument down Into tbo water and put your eyes to tho smnll end you wil .bo perfectly astonished ut tho plainness with which you seo all kinds of fish and water animals swimming around in a state of naturo. A wooden wator telescope is mado of n long, square, wooden box, say ton inches squaro at the large ond and four or livo inches squaro at tho other. Mako all tho seams water tight by moons of putty and paint Put a pieco of glass in tho largo end and leavo tho small ond opeu to look Into, as you do with tho tin instrument. A groat many of you go on boating nnd picnio parties, and you can imagine how much sucb a contrivance would odd to your amusement and pleasure, to say nothing ot the instruction derived from studying tho inhabitants of the wator at homo. Using the principle of tho water tolo- scope, a woll known naturalist had a boat mado with a glass tn tho bottom, through which ho could soo every movement of the thousands of fish as they sworn along through tho clear wator. Fishermen in Norway uso tbo wator teloscopo at their work with tbo best results, sometimes discovering a new kind of fish that might otherwiso have ea- capod tho notico of man. Heat In'the Comstoek Wats* "The Comstook mino in Nevada Is a wendorful work," said Mr. Cecil Morgan, ot Aspen. "It ls 3,800 feet tn a vertical lino to tho bottom of tho shaft, and ono can make tho dosoent ln threo or four minutes in the cago which Is used to boul oro to the surface. This cago will lift eboutO.000 pounds, or throe car-loads of 3,000 pounds eaoh. Work on the Comstook Ib now confined to tho upper levels, tho work- men having been driven trom tho depths by tho steam generated through tho action of tho atr on tho sulphurous rook penetrated by tho different levels. The tomporaturo averages about 100 degrees down thoro, and It Is simply impossiblo for the miners to work undor such conditions, Whether science will ever bo ablo to ovorcomo tho difficulties met with tn thoso lowor levels remains to be seen.
