CLASS NEWSPAPERS.
Character and Enormous Increase
la'TweatyBve Tears.-
This has been aptly called Iho me
chanical age of journalism. With all
the powerful intellect brotight to bear,
the bdnnclless knowledge of men aod
affairs subserved, and the cognizance
.of events near and. afar, the publishing
;of a newspaper is "but a business mat
iter. To the ordinary mind, a daily
(newspaper was once a sort of magical
resultant, but it is now a most prosiac
affair, as -regards its production and
'distribution. Once, the publication of
s newspaper, whether a daily or s
weekly, was a serious undertaking and
well considered. Now merchants,
tradesmen, undertakers, soapmen, agi
stors and "fakirs" thrust their jour
nals upon the public in bewildering'
inumbcrs.
( The line between newspapers .and
.class papers is finely drawn. Avbi
trarily defikod,. newspaper is ajmb?
lication whicu supplies current news
'and general information, and id issued
Regularly to $&bscf ibcrs or sold to the
public. All others are special papers,
Whether they treat of merchandise, art
'or literature. Papers wholly or in part
'dealing with mercantile 'affairs are
.properly called "trade journals."
Of the 722 newspapers and periodicals
.published at New York City, a little
over one-sixth, or 122, strictly come
under the head of news and general in
formation. The journals of a special
character, but also furnishing general
news, and the papers and periodicals
dealing with special matters of universal
interest, augment the 122 newspapers
mentioned to 41S. Tho remaining S09
arc purely class papers and trade jour
nals. Many publications of tho class
last referred to are ably conducted and
of great value to the business com
munity. The larger number of them,
sa' 160, are but advertising mediums,
in fact. At least one-half of these ad
vertising sheets are of the most ephem
eral character. Instead of the nomen
clature which exists among them they
should have such names as tittle Joker,
WuVo-the-Wisp and Fly-by-Xight, as
they appear and disappear with start
ling rapidity, and move in mazy courses.
The publisher of one of this kind of
papers, ostensibly a weekly, has lived
well and supported a family for thd
.past two years upon advance payments
'of subscriptions and advertisements ob
.taihed, and has issued but two numbers
df his paper, one at the commencement
of each of the two years. He is still
collecting for subscriptions and adver
tisements, and the third number of the"
paper will shortly appear.
In 1860, as regards to number, the
five leading classes of newspapers apd
.periodicals in New York and the five
minor classes were as follows:
Greatest.
General news 81
Kellgrious 67
i Literary 25
Commercial .13
Medical 8
Least.

Trade (...w..5

The classification of the present time
is as under:
No. No,
Trade 12" Commercial. 27
General news 122 Science . 25
Religion 81 Mechanics 20
Lltorary SO Kducatlou 15
Medical 31 Railroads .....14
The above comparison is particularly
valuable as showing the enormous in
crease of trade journals in the quarter
of a century.
r In I860 the existing newspapers and
periodicals covered US topics. Eighty
one publications were devoted to gen
eral news, .57 to religion, 25 to litera
tare, 11 to commerce, 8 to juveniles, 8
to insurance, 8 to finance, 7 to science,
6 to comics, 5 to trade, 4 to railroads,
.4 to sport, 4 to politics, 3 to crime, 3 to
temperance, 3 to agriculture, 2 to edu

: At the present time the subjects cm
Jbraced are 56 in number, as follows:

FRYING FOOD.
"Why Perfect Frying: Can Dc Considered
the Fcrfection of Conking.
Grease of every description is capable
of being heated to a very much higher
temperature than water; in fact, it can
be made almost three times as hot as
boiling water. When fat is at its boil
ing point it is so hot that any article of
food brought in contact with it is
actually burned, and this is precisely
the reason why, for purposes of frying,
fat should always be boiling hot. For
any article of food, a doughnut, for
example, dipped into boiling fat, is
Immediately covered all over by a thin
.crust of burned dough, which prevents
the fat from penetrating further in and
enables the rest of the doughnut to be
exposed to a greater degree of heat
than can be applied to it by any other
process, without coming in contact
.with tho fat, and the natural chemical
processes go on inside with a greater
;degree of perfection than can
be obtained by any other method.
Perfect frying is the perfection of
cooking, but so soon as the fat is uot
sufficiently hot to create the burned
crusts around the article fried, the fat
:penetrates it and absolutely prevents
.cooking from taking place at all. If
:thc fat is not boiling, bubbling hot, the
Erocess that takes place is not cooking,
ut simply drenching the food witli a
'tepid fat and rendering it totally indi
gestible. It makes no difference how
.not the fat is afterward, the mischief is
.done the moment the fat penetrates the
(inside.
All perfectly fried food has a thin,
.crisp, brown outside crust (which has
jin itself a relishiug taste) and is per
fectly free from the suspicion of fat in
side, except what was intentionally put
;there by the cook. All housekeepers
'know that to fry well their fat should
Ibe hot But they do not attend to it as
"scrupulously as they would if tiiey un
derstood the true philosophy of it.
foiling, bubbling fat can not penetrate
anything, and cooks to perfection;
.'tepid fat penetrates everywhere and
idoes not cook at all, but -actually pre
.vents cooking. Any housekeeper who
reads this and chooses to profit by it,
need never put any greasy, fried, half
' cooked aad indigestible food upon her
table. The whole secret consists in
'paving the fat boiling hot before tin

A SLAVE TO CARE.
The Happiness Which Is Part of a Par
and Honest Life.
Many persons think that, in order to
enjoy perfect liberty, it is only neces
sary to be free from the control of other
people. If no one exacts obedience,
regulates their lives, or interferes with
their will, they triumphantly call them
selves free. Yet there is a bondage,
which is not tho less slavish because
they forge tho chains themselves. There
are tyrants that hold men in unflinch
ing servitude, and burdens under which
they bend without thinking It possible
to rebel against the one or to cast ofl
the other.
One of tho most common forms of
this unacknowledged slavery is that
which wo are under, to care. Now care
is something that rightly falls to the lot
of all. Childhood alone niajyplahn ex
emption from it. As the lifeadvancee
it comes with every ncwjresponsibility,
and every honest man-apd" woman ac
copts it cheerfully aajiis or her share
in the world's burdens. So far, how
ever, care is no -grinding taskmaster.
It develops power, it encourages en
deavor, it promotes happiness. No one
but tho selfish idler would wish to be
entirely fr&'e from care, but we justlj
hold him in honor who faithfully takes
up that which falls to his lot and fulfils
the duty it involves.
Insensiblo, however, in many cases,
the time arrives when the man is no
longer master of the situation. Care
gradually tightens its grasp and ex
tends its domain until by and by he
who had once gorffefd-and regulated
It becomes its vi.WsyiHe has perhaps
become involved" nijisiness ventures
that tax all his powers of body and
mind. Not only his own money, but
that of Others is" implicated; not only
his own welfare, but that of a depend
ent family hangs upon tho issues. The
ups and downs that once were borne
cnecrfully now wear upon iiis nerves
and irritate his temper. His brow is
contracted, wrinkles betoken an anx
ious spirit, the smile fades from his
lips. Absorbing care has fastened upon
him, and though ho imagines ho is
free, he is in fact and for the time a
slave.
Or he has entered political life, with
high hopes and bright prospects. He
counts much upon his friends, ho un
dertakes large enterprises, and binds
himself by many promises. Prcsentlj
complications arise: obstacles impede
his path; friends grow cool and ene
mies spriug up; his aims seem to re
cede from bun, even his motives be
come clouded; care overshadows him,
and ho can no longer control it; Ma
freedom is gone. One is extravagant,
and, yielding to his inclination or vani
ty, ho spends first up fo his income, then
a little beyond it. then incuw liabilities
Which he can not meet; and then care
has gained a supremacy over him that
he can in no way throw off. Another
gives way to some temptation and
wrecks his own life and the happiness
of all that arc dear to him, and the
care that guilt brings sits forever at his
board. Ono is Immersed in details and
takes tho cares that properly belong to
many others npon liis own shoulders
tyitil they weigh him to tho earth; an
other by neglecting to hold the threads
of life in an orderly way becomes en
tangled in a web of care from which he
struggles in vain to extricate himself.
Thus in numerous ways do men givs
np the liberty they profess to prize, and
6Ubmlt to a tyranny that fetters the soul,
that palsies "the energies, that weakens
the will. Who that nas writhed under
such a despotism would not escape
from it with gladness, even at the lost
of much that he holds dear? Yet, like
all tyranny, it. must cost a revolution
to break the vokc.
It is true that excessive care is some
times the result of circumstances that
can not be controlled, but usually it is
not so. Often it is only a question of
limit How much to undertake arid to
promise? How far to accept responsi
bility? What style of living to adopt?
The practical answers to such questions
frequently decide whether care is to
be an honorable and useful servant or
a cruel and tyrannical master. Our
powers aro all" limited, and their best
efficiency is never secured by straining
them to the utmost. Always to leave
a margin, a reserved force of strength
or means, is a valuable rule of life. To
aim at excellence in one thing, rather
than mediocrity in many, to undertake
few things, and those few with a whole
gpul, win greatly help to ward off the
tyranny of care. So above all, will
firm principles that place truth, hon
esty and fidelity so high that no temp
tation can assail thenf, and a pure and
simple life that prizes righteousness
above gain and draws its liapnhiee
from nobler sources than luxury or dis
play. Philadelphia Ledger.
TALK CORRECTLY.
A Bishop's Exuortatloni on the Sabjeet ef
Correct Lang-nape.
Probably there is not an instrument
in common use, from. a pencil to a
piano, which is used so imperfectly as
language. You were well taught hero,
and most of you have been using the
English you learned for some time since
you graduated. But if you will let me
be plain, I suspect it would be safe to
offer a gold medal as a prize to every
young lady here who will not before to
morrow night utter some sentence that
cannot be parsed; will put no singulars
and plurals into forbidden connections;
will drop no partieles. double no nega
tives, mix no metaphors, tangle no
parenthesis, begin no statement two or
three times over without finishing it
and not once construct a proposition
after this manner: "When a person
talks like that, thev ought to be ashamed
of it."
We all repeat and perpetuate conven
tional blunders and hereditary solecisms
without once applying the study of four
or five j'ears in syntax and conjugation
to our current speoch. Where is the
reform to begin? I say emphatically,
set about grammatic correctness, fir-st
of all. Watch yourself. Criticize your
self. Be intolerant with yourself. Get
some housemate to expose you. Say
over the thing correctly till the mistake
is made impossible. It would be no
more discreditable to your training to
finish a picture out of drawing, or to
misspell the name of one df our terri
tories, or to mistranslate a line of Vir
gil, or to flat in music, than to con
found the parts of speech in a morning
call.
Nothing is to be said of slang. If I
were to exhort those who are here on
that matter, it should be only to for
bearance, ih that thev are obliged to
hear it from their ill-bred acquaint
ances. "Awful handsome" and "hor
rid nice" and "jolly sunset," and all
thA pitiful dialeot, coming of weak
heads and earlv neglect we shall have
to bear with till select and high-toned
schools have chastened the manners
and elevated the spirit of the better
conditioned classes; and, through them,
the improved standard will work its
Way outward and downward into the
public schools and into the homes of
the people. Unexpected hyperbole is
often witty, but nonsense is not, nor
are stale repetitions of nonsense.
An ill-natured bachelor shamefully

LOST RIVERS.

Tfte Trltmtirf cs of a Stream Tbat Does Vet
Kxlst. 3r
There is one remarkable case isiwew
Mexico where the lost tributaries are
plentiful bnt the mam strcanpfaocs not
exist This is in a vallejp-wbich Hea
between tho Rio Grande1' and Pecos
Rivers. The valley Jjtegins near tho
Sandia Mountains.ind shut out from
the streams on each side by broken
mountain chains. It is a well-defined
I valley, notyery broad, bnt having a
jengen persaps oi inreo nunureu niiiw.
Flowing into it, especially on the west
ern side near the upper end, and on
the eastern side toward tho lower, aro
numerous lost tributaries; but the pri
mary stream has so completely disap
peared that its bed can only be found
at intervals.
In the valley He the ruins of tho Gran
Qnivira, the existence of which is not
only attested by the ruins themselves
but also by tho accounts of tho earliest
Spanish settlors. The records of the
Spanish up to the latter part of the sev
enteenth century, when they were ex
pelled by flie Indians, are incomplete,
as the Indians destroyed all that was
left behind. That tho Gran Quivira
was well known to them, however, is
shown by the fact that the most promi
nent ruin there is that of a church.
There is now no water for many miles
from the rains. That there must have
been once can well be granted, for no
largo city wonld have oeen built by
human beings at a distance of fifteen
or twenty miles from a scanty water
supply. The valley may bo named
from this city, and wonld then bo tho
Gran Quivira Valley. About half way
down the valley it is broken by a long,
narrow, thin layer of lava, now much
broken up, and making a desolate re
gion, locally known as tho Mal-pais,
or "bad land." Tho crater from
which tho lava was derived was near
the northern end or the Mal-pais. Just
above the Mal-pais an old river-bed is
reached at the depth of about two hun
dred feet; below it tho river-bed, when
found, is at a slight depth. Southwest
of the Apache Reservation the old river
bed runs into a large salt marsh. A
stream of no mean size seems to havo
once run down this valley. Not only
has it now disappeared, but its bod is
covered by lava and loose soil some
times to great depths. As to the cause
of the disappearance, it may have some
connection with a tradition of the In
dians, which tells of a year of fire,
when this valley was so filled with
flame and poisonous gases as to bo
made uninhabitable. When this oc
curred the chronology of the Indians is
not perfect enough to tell us. That it
was long ago is attested by tho depth
to which the old bed is covered by a
detritus, probably washed down from
the mountains, and by trees of consid
erable size which are found in somo
places in it But that it was not so ex
tremely long ago that it had become
entirely uninhabitable is mado proba
ble by "the comparatively late desertion
of the Gran Quivira. " It is entirely
possible that the Indian year of fire may
havo long preceded the drying up of
the part of the valley in which Gran
Quivira was situated. Popular Science

TEDIOUS STORY TELLERS.
A Class of Dores Who Spin Tarns Abont
Every Thins;.
The story-telling bore is ono of the
dreariest of his class. He is a long
winded biped, and invariably chooses
an unsuitable time for his stories. The
slightest hint will start him on one of
his interminable talcs, prefaced by
"that reminds me." Talk of Waterloo,
and he will tell you of a grand-uncle
of his own who knew the Captain of a
vessel who was intimately acquainted
with a man who once made boots for
an officer in Wellington's army, and
then, being started on a military tack,
he will relate war anecdotes for hours.
Discuss the increase and character of
English newspapers and magazines,
and he will be reminded of a friend of
his who is now a California editor, and
who owns a dog which is the grandson
of a dog possessed by Abraham Lin
coln, and which performed an extra
ordinary feat during the American
war, which ho proceeds to rolatc. You
ask him where he purchased the hand
some cane which he carries. "Ah, my
dear follow, I have a story to tell yoii
in connection witli the purchase of that
cane. You know Harley, of Elmwood.
Well. I met him one day in London
about two years ago. He had just re
turned from South America, and we
had much to talk abont. Harley was
always a great talker very prosy. I
proposed lunch. He agreed. On our

KING LEOPOLD.
IIow the Monarch of the Belgians Appears
ou the Promenade.
Leopold is ono of the most demo
cratic of Kings. He saunters about
Brussels in the most leisurely Way, and
is as familiar a figure on the Rue Roy
ale or du Midi as President Grant used
to be on Pennsylvania avenue. He is
fully six feet tall, has an angular form
and an awkward manner, and one day
when I saw him on the Rue du Midi he
had the gout so bad thaW he hobbled
along in anything but a kingly fashion.
He has a dark complexion, wears a full
sandy beard that is long and tinged
with gray, and his small eyes aro so
close together that there is scarcely
space for his big Roman noso between
them. Hero is tho dress which Leo
pold thinks the proper one for a King's
street wear: A coat of dark bfiio
broadcloth, cut in the style of a Nor
folk jacket, and trousers of the same
material, but a shade or two lighter in
color. In all the seams of both coat
and trousers was set a small gold cord;
boots of heavy calfskin, with soles
fully a half inch thick, cap similar to
that worn by an American army
private, with a miniature gold lion of
Brabant over the forepiccc, and gold
bowed oye-glasscs with a pendant
chain. A heavy cane was held in a
hand whose third finger was encircled
by a gold ring that bore the square,
compass and letter G of tho Masonic
order, set in diminutive diamonds.
His only attendants were two portly
middle-aged gentlemen, elegantly
dressed in black broadcloth and fino
linen, who walked a few feet behind
the King, and who occasionally an
swered a question put to them by their
royal master. Cor. Boston Post.
The theory, which some eminent
physicists have been disposed to aban
don, that the interior of the earth is in
a molten state, is strongly defended by
a German scientist, who has been
studying the Krakatoa eruption. In
view of the remarkable phenomena
connected witli this catastrophe, be
thinks the heatf the volcanic furnaces
can not be entirely due to loeal chein-
i ical action.
A FUTURE CATACLYSM.
InklBs; of the Attantlo Coast aad Che'
Recession of Macar Fans.
The scientists have again unfolded to
the public their views to the effect that
the Atlantic coast line of the United
States is settling away, and will be at
length submerged by the ocean. The
rate at which it is sinking is not such as
to create immediate alarm. The most
that is claimed is that the crust of the
earth is falling in at the rate of a quar
ter of an inch a year, or abont a foot in,
fifty years. At this rate tho Atlantic
Ocean will submergo Now York City
about the time when by the recession of
Niagara Falls to the outlet of Lake Erie
at Buffalo, the chain of great lakes will
be drained of a large portion of their
contents. This generation will hardlv
take an interest in either event, whish
will occur at a period in the future so
very rcmoto as to lose much of its in
terest as a study.
The sinking' cf the Atlantio coast
has long been a theme of scientific con
jecture and calculation. By what sys
tem of measurement the fact has been
ascertained we are not informed. In
struments of a very delicate character
which measure with considerable ac
curacy almost infinitesimal distances
have been invented for scientific cal
culation, and the results which they
produce are sometimes very striking.
It is not impoiblo thnt. as the earth s
internal fires are still cooling, the
process of shrinkage also continues
and that the shell falls in as a vacuum is
created by the decrease in the size of
the central fiery core. But there art
grave reasons why it may be doubted
whether any uniform rate of sinking is
perccptiblo'by an) means of measure
ment either 'along the Atlantic soa
coast or elsewhere.
But that tho Falls arc receding there
can be no doubt. That they were for
merly located near the outlet of Niag
ara River is an established fact, and
that they have receded within a recent
ora seven miles from Lejfstou to their
present locality is equally cortaiu.
When they shall back up so far that
the dam across tho outlet of Lake Erie
shall give way, the outpour from the
basin of the lakos will sweep down
through the valley of the Ontario and
out through tho channel of the St
Lawrence in a flood that will de
vastate the entire East Lake Michi
ean, owing to its great depth, will not

Chicago an inland city, will merely
provide it more ground over which to

Better Thau aJTraU Upon the Prairies
In a Blinding: Sndwtortt.
Tiro travelers "were lost on a far
western prairie during a driving snow
storm. Night was coming on, the trail
was obscured by the swift-falling flakes
and it seemed as if they were destined
to perish far away from home and
friends. But suddenly" one of them
turned his face to the north, whence
the ice-laden wind came in cutting
blasts, and bidding his comrade follow,
walked with swiftness and confidence
against the storm. Miles onward they
pressed, the one who had first faced tho
storm leading always, with a step that
was strong and steady and an expres
sion that told of hope in his heart.
Darkness Came down upon the tree
less plain and the storm increased in
fury. Directly a light twinkled in the
distance, and, quickening their pace,
the travelers were soon receiving the
hearty welcome of an old settler and
his kindly wife. When lus guests were
enjoying'thoir pipes before the roaring
blaze in the big fireplace the old settler
said:
"The trail you were following runs
full five miles to the south of us. What
good piece of fortune brought you
through this terrible storm to our
cabin door?"
"It must have been the hand of Prov
idence," said the old settler's good
wife, who was removing the remains
of the supper.
"Well, very likely it was," answored
the traveler who had led the way
through the snow and darkness to the
rude but cheerful prairie home. "Very
likely it was the hand of Providenoe,
but you, good madam, were the instru
ment which that hand used to bring us
numbed and weary wanderers to your
hospitable door. "You woro boiling

AN ODD VIEW.
What Dnmas Would Hare Done With the

Hard it is, indeed, to sec now Mr.
Vanderbilt was the better for his
money. Perhaps he had 40,000,000
pounds, there or thereabouts. What
can a man do with forty millions? Ho
can do nothing, unless he has tho im
agination of a Dumas or the tastes of a
Beckford. Mr. Beckford collected a
truly delightful and marvellous library
of books." Mr. Vanderbilt did nothing
of the sort. He had no particular crav
ing for rare editions, and the master
pieces of Duseuil and Le Gascon. Du
mas, again, wonld have run through
the money like a man. He would havo
E resented Italy to the Italians and
.ome to Victor Emmanuel. Perhaps
he would have annexed India; very
probably, at least, ho would haVe made
the attempt, He would have carried
Duchesses captive, and his dramas
would have been magnificently per
formed in Timbucto. He would have
cut a canal through the Isthmus of
Corinth; he would have carved Mount
Athos into a statue of Athos, Comte do
la Fere. He would havo seen to it that
living .became a practical art, and
France's navies would have pounced
from the central blue on Birmingham
.tnd carried off the Liberal Seven to
chains and slavery. Dumas would
ave released convicts and 'imprisoned
Princes. He would have fitted up iu
palatial style as many caves as Shelley
ever dreamed of, and would have filled
them with the most magnificent and
most magnanimous brigands, many of
them cardinals in disguise. O, great

SOLO THE DOG.
How Josh lulling Cooled n Crowd of Tale
noy.
It is told of Josh Billings that once
tramping, with a yellow dog as hi
companion, he fell among xoiii" Yale
boys in a Connecticut village hotel.
They took him for a farmer from way
'back, and set out to have some fun
with him. On their inquiring, with
affected interest, after the health of hla
wife and children. Josh, with counter
feited implicity, gave them a graphic
account of his family and farm. "Of
course you belong to the church?"
asked one of the boys. "Yes, the Lord
be prated, and niv father and grand
father before me.'"' "Now, I suppose
you would not tell a lie," said ono of
the students. "Not for the world."
"What will you take for that dogP"
poinding to Josh's cur, which was.
crouching beneath his chair. "I won't
take twenty dollars for that dog."
"Twenty dollars! Why, he's not worth
twenty cents." "I assure you I would
not take twent' dollars for him."
"Come, my friend," said tho student,
who, with his companions, was bent
on having some fun with the old man.
"Now, you say you won't tell a lie for
the world. Let me sec if you will not
do it for twenty dollars. I'll give you
twentv dollars for your dog." "I'll
not ta'kc it" "You will not? Here!
let me see if this will not tempt you to
lie," added the student, producing a
small bag of half-dollars, which ho
built up in si) .Ul piles on the table.
Josh w; sit tin ir bv tho table, with his
hat in his h.i '. ..; -iit!y uncon
cerned. "Tl -. ' .'.-. the student,
"there re twti l-l!:us, all in silver;
I will give you flmt for the animal."
Josh quietly raised his hat to the edgo
of the table, and, as quick as thought,
scraped nil the money into it except
one half-dollar, and then exclaimed:
"I won't take your twenty dollars!
Nineteen and a half is as much as the
dog is worth; he is your property."

CARVING TURKEY.
TcrrltoiI:i! I.nius or the "Sick Man" Dor
l:i the I.nsl Tiro Ccnturlea.
The Novoc Vrctnya gives the follow
ing summary of the turriloriol losses of
Turkey during the last two centuries:
Since the capture of Constantinople in
14.VS they had gradually seized the
whole of the Balkan Peninsula except
ing Montenegro, the Peloponnesus, the
northern shore of the Black Sea and of
the Sea of Azov. In 1711 the Ottoman
Empire possessed more territory in
Europe than any other power except
Russia, her possessions extendingwest
ward to tho Dniester, tho Dnieper, tho
Don and the Kuban. Thus Bessarabia,
the Crimea and other Mongolian re
gions were tinder the dominion of tho
Turks, whose possessions ou the Conti
nent of Europe covered an area of
liflceu thousand four hundred and forty
live square miles. But from this pe
riod the decadence of Turkey com
menced, and, with the exception of her
temporary success against Austria in
17:!'J, she went on losing territory to
Mich an extent that upon the eve of tho
war wlrli iui.-sia she had onlv nine
j thousand futir hundred and iifty-shc
square miles of territory, of which two
thousand nine hundred and forty-eight
miles were governed by Princes, who
merely owed her suzerainty. Tho Ber
lin treaty deprived her of four thousand
live hundred and fifty-eight miles, so that
from 1700 to 1878 the Ottoman Empire
lost in Europe ten thousand six hundred
and siiy-six square miles, out of which
eight thousand nine hundred and two
were conquered by Russia, who has an
nexed four thousand eight hundred and
sixteen square miles. After the war
of 1S77-8 Russia annexed four hundred
and sixty-eight square miles in Asia
Minor and onu hundred and sixty-seven
in Europe, while Austria annexed onu
thousand and seventy-three (Bosnia
and the Herzegovina), and England
one hundred and seventy-four (Cy
prus.) TORNADO PREDICTION.
The Main Peculiarity Upon Which the Sig
nal Service Advices Are Based.
The most remarkable and interesting
featuroof the development of tornadoes
is the fact that thoy nearly always
form southeast of a moving center of
low pressure, and their tracks, scat
tered here and there, conform closety
to tho progressive direction of the
nutin storm. For example, on Febru-
ary 19, 188-1, 44 tornadoes occurred in
ueorgia, .aiaoama anu oouui uaroiiua,
but principally in Georgia and Ala
bama. They "developed at a distanco
of from 500 to 2,01)0 miles from a
storm center that moved across the
northern part of the United Stales, be
ginning at the northern extremity of
the Rocky Mountains in Montana,
thence southeasterly through Dakota,
Minnesota and Wisconsin to Northern
Illinois and Indiana, northward
through Michigan across Lake Huron,
disappearing north of Quebec. This
sudden, sharp turn of the storm center
southward into Illinois and Indiana
seems to have relation to tho nnprecc
dcntcdly large number of tornadoes
that developed not far from the South
Atlantic coast, extending inland as far
as Southern Illinois and Indiana. This
southward lunge of a mass of cold,
moist air seems to have caused the ab
normal conditions of temperature and
dew-point ami the high winds neces
sary to cause the most tremendous ex
hibition of destructive tornado power
over recorded by the Signal Service.
This invariable location southeast of
the storm center is one of the main pe
culiarities of tornado development upon
which the predictions depend. Will

VICTOR HUGO.
The Great Poet's Lore for Ills Little Grandr
children.
Mile. Jennie seems to have been like
the little girl in Longfellow's nursery
rhyme, when she was good, she was
very, very good, but when she was
bad, she was horrid. Once she had
been naughty, and her mother had to
deprive her of her dessert. Victor
Hugo said that if she could not cat
an he would not. Now, the poet was
like a healthy child in his fondness for
sweets. Unforlunatefy, Mile. Jennie
was no better the next day, and again
the poet kept her company in her de
privation. A third day the little girl
trangrcssed, and the poet had no des
sert. The third evening, as it hap
pened, Mile, Jennie fell asleep early
and was taken to bed before, the fruit
was placed on the table. The mother
besought the poet to eat his favorite
fruit. "No," said the grandfather, "I
shall not cat an'. A man must keep
his word always, even when he gives
it to his granddaughter." His grand
children called him "Papapa. He
was very fond of playing innocent
tricks on them, and to this end he had
invented a game of cherries, in which
he took a double share for himself
while pretending to make an even di
vision. "One for me, one for you, and
one for me," and then a pause, after
which he began again, "one for me,
one for you, and one for me." Gener
ally it took the puzzled child a minute
or two to denounce the flagrant injus
tice of this division. Saturday Review.

OLD JUNK.
New Uses to Which Discarded Iroa aad
Tin Are Pat.
Small boys with their arms heaped
full of scraps of old tin, bits of iron and
similar pieces of riff raff, gathered in
the strcots amid men and women, lug
ging big baskets piled full of the same
kind of freight, kept traversing Goorck
Street all day yesterday, bearing their
strange burdens to the door of the un
couth two-story brick building at No.
07 Gocrck Street At the doorway
stood a shaggy-haired man in working
clothes, who took in all the miscellane
ous stuff that came, and paid cash for
it on the spot.
"What are you buying all this old
stuff for?" a reporter asked of the old
man, who was steadily depleting his
old-fashioned pocket-book.
"Dunno, can't say. Couldn't give it
to you straight' the old man said,
pullinghis old felt hat over his left eye.
"You'll have ter go down tcr tho Wan
dorbilt building ifyor want ter find oat
exactly what fur Ira doin' it.
An affable young man on the third
story of the big building on Nassau"
Street, said that he knew the secret of
the old man's purchase.
"Great idea, he cried," and lots of
cash in it. It is a new scheme to utilbse
all the waste metal of Gotham that
formerly usc4 to go to the dogs be
cause nobody was smart enough to find
out that thev could save the United
States S2,OOO".00O a year outlay. That'
what it has cost to import Taggnrd
iron and tin from England and Ger
many. Wo have discovered that we
can make this sort of iron and tin out
of old cans and other things just as
well and very much cheaper than it can
be made out of the original ore."
"And how do you do it?" was asked.
"Nothing easier," tha affable young
man said. "We put the waste material
ih an oven or grate heated by a fur
nace, and beat it with rollers nutil all
the extraneous material is removed. It
is allowed to cool after that, and the
scraps are sorted out according to the
uses to which they are to bo put. The
metal sheet remnants are pas-ted under
a rubber-coated roller and flattened out
Then they arc piled in packs and slid
between chilled iron rollers to reduce
their thickness. After that they are
annealed, shot through tho rollers
again, and then trimmed and finished
off and packed ready for shipment any
where. The sheets can be japanned,
or tinned or galvanized or treated in
any way that the material made from
the original ore is treated."
"What is it used for after it is fin
ished?" "Lots of things. Out of the iron we
make buttons, fye cans, umbrella tips,
shoe lace ends, show cards, telephones,
electric lights, and letter boxes. You
can't get the English or German iron
for this use for less than 87.50 for a box
Of 112 pouudss.J, We can make it for $2
a box, and'sell it for 85. Of th tin we
make butter dishos, tops of paint and
milk cans, and similar small ware. It
costs f 10 a box to import the tin, which
i just doable what we can make it for.
The tin can also be made up for ferro
types at a selling price of tl5 a box of
112 pounds. The kind that comes from
England costs from 935 to 950 a box.
and beforo this photographers had to
go to England for it because there was
not any body here that would make it.
Wc weren't ablo to compete with En
gland and Germany ana the original
ore.'bccause it cost us more than double
to manufacture than it did on the other
tide of the water. There is a bonanaa
i it, and the proof is the profit, after
wing the expense of manufacture, is
7.000 on 30,000 boxes of the iron
when made from the waste material,
and sold at an average of $5 a box.
