O THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER , 28 181 , CKOMWELI/S HEAD. _ - * - Th Prot otor * H mln It I Pro orvert ToDny. 1'roiu the Dublin Timw , Dec IS , It is not generally known that tli embalmed head of Oliver Cromwell i extant. Some fovr years MIICO , tvl an rate , it wns said to bo in tint posvia sion of Mr. Horace Wilkinson , o Sovenoaks , Kent. It was then ii good preservation , and its phronolo yical aspect presented several ntrikin El peculiarities. Thus the length , froi the forehead to the back of the head is quite extraordinary far greate than iu ordinary men. The forehead or frontal portion , is low , but very broad ; the orbits of the eyes are yer ; large , the cheek-bones and the bridgi of the nose arc high , nml the lowe jawbone , which ! ordinarily curved is short , straight , and funning a riyli angle with its point of insertion The head is one indicating a brail ( which is but the instrument of the mind ) of great activity nnd grcal capacity , corresponding with the re- mirk of Cromwell's secretary , who said that "it was at once a shop and a Htorchnuso. " From its being urn- baltncd , auchllosh as ruinninn on it is of the consistency of hard brown leather. The eyebrows met in the middle , nnd between them win a small wart now worn away one of those which Cromwell when Bitting for his portrait ordered the paintur on no account to omit representing , im his duty was not to ( latter in any way but paint what ho saw exactly. In lifo his complexion wan fresh , and ol the hue known as "mvlmon colored. ' The hair , which wai of a fairish or rcclish tinge , has mostly been cut oil' , sind the beard is now stained brown by the embalming fluid and drawn under the chin , where , when the head was exposed on the top of Wcstmintor hall , it was tied close to tlio tipcat head which had boon run through am mounted on it. Several teeth romaii and the oyo-lids , but the brain was c.-omovod during the embalming pro ess. Coming- I'Uttimouth KnlcrprK' . , The fact becomes moro patent , daj by day , that the coming political iisui in national , aa well as state politics , is the monopoly question. The har monization in other words of capita and Tabor by enacting nuch lawn as will confine both to the principles thai undcrlio all good government ! ) , and are enunciated in words umniitakahlc in the constitution of our own conn * try. The anti-monopoly issue is a growing'onc , growing with moro ra pidity than the friends of the move ment appreciate , and growing with moro rapidity than the powers of mo nopoly dare to admit. Ex-Secretary Windom'o letter , or written address recently published in Now York , has struck terror to the powers in that city , and started a ( lame that they at tempt their utmost to conceal. When men like Senator Windom speak , and in language unmistakable ; it becomes at once a national question. The antimonopoly - monopoly league is growing through out the east , and spreading over the west. The Fanner's Alliances working in harmony ara the exponents of the name principles ; the two uniting are iia certain as existence exists , to create a power that the political parties must recognize ; and men who to-dav pre dict that an anti-monopoly plank , now in construct ion , strong in the strength that it has from the demands of the people , will bo incorporated in the next Republican platform , is no false prophet. The American people are forever a people of advancement ; and the United States government is netlike like the constitutional monarchies of the old world , unalterable for a half century ; but likothoupirit of its birth , the spirit of its lifo is progression. "When a government is lost fn the zeal of accomplishing its greatest work , the spirit of injustice creeps in , and gains a strong foothold that crowds OB and on in its career. Such is the history of the monopoly power that to-day begins to draw closer around the country , its cord of strangulation ; which subverts the riahU the govern ment owcalho many to thn Bullish end nnd purpose of the few. The monop olies fight cheap transportation , light just legislation , enter very legislative body from the state to the national. Corrupt atatnsmon , .corrupt conven tions , corrupt the halls of justice , and hang banners of defiance on the outer walls. In the face of this , need uny doubt but that the issue buVwcen them and the people is coming ? Just as certain as progress lives , mid con tinues onward , so certain is the unti- monopoly question coming to the front , and no political party can afford or will ignore it. 'I he people have the power , and they are coming. A Novel Torpedo Boat that Can Sink the Greatest of Ironclndi. Niu Yoik Work ) , IK-ccmler " 1. A successful trial of Captain Erics- son's torpedo boat destroyer took place nt the navy yard yesterday. The Htrongtido oil'the Ordnance < 1ock com pelled a change of plan , and the target - got , a square frame covered with wire netting , was successfully placed in the cove. The Destroyer was mudo fast to the old Constitution. Thu target was Hubmerged ! | 00 yards away. lOvory- thing being in readiness , Jlr. Larroe , the representative of the Dulainutor Iron Works , the builders of the Destroyer , notified Captain Soltridgo and Commanders Pythitui and Crowniiifihiold , the Hoard appointed to oxainino the tests. At It o'clock the signal was trivcn and the gun fired. There was but H mnglo rooort , and all that could bo noticed from the out- aide wait a trilling disturbance of iho waters under the bow of the vessel. Almost instantly the portion of the target which was above the water was seen to vibrate , and 11 second later the projectile , a wooden log fifteen feet long , leaped from the water nonio ! tOO yards beyond the target , with a mo tion exactly similar to that of a porpoise poise playing under the bow of a ship nt sea. From this point it ricochet- ted along the surface of the water for Homo 200 yards further before it lost its momentum. The target having boon raised it was found that the net ting had been pierced almost exactly in the center and about live foot under water. The oflicurs pronounced this trial eminently successful and ordered another for this morning at ! ) o'clock. The Destroyer is an iron boat with hull al most entirely submerged. Upon this hull , placed well aft , is a deck-house jf shoot iron The hull is 130 feet long , 12 feet wide and 11 foot deep , ' She is a doublc-endor and is propollc by an engine of 1,000 horse-power The steerir.j ; apparatus and the tor pedo gun in fact , all of her effectiv appointments are below the wate level. The armament consists of single gun placed just above the keel eon in the forward part of the boat its mur.rlo opening directly into th water , which is excluded from it by i permanent valve hung by an olbo\ joint to thostcm and opened or closet by n piston operated nt Iho breech o the gun , When the gun in to lx fired the vitlvo is raised out of tin path of the projectile and itr pinco is taken by a temporary valve of wood nnd rubber cloth , whicl fits the mtuzlo tightlynnd is placed ii the gun after it is loaded. Tins is shattered when the gun in tired. Ac the projectile loaves the inu7.1c , the permanent valve again comen in post- lion , the little water that lushes in rmiH through the biccch to the bilge , nnd is pumped out by n atc.im siphon. The torpedo which it is proposed tome mo in actual warfare is a chamber ol ron or copper , largo enough to con- .ain y JO pounds of dynamite , and it claimed that against thin little vessel thu most powerful ironclads will be hulplcsH , rm thu Riibinorgcd gun will > enetrato bent-nth their armor , and ior great speed and facility of man euvering Mould enable her to get in lor work among a licet of big ships ilmost at her will and \-ith entire safety. WINDOW DRESSERS TIio Now Trndo of Arranging Shop Front Windowi , \ cw York llera'd. To such a degree has the penchant for show windowH boon carried Ihuf at the present time some ncoro or so of establishment ! ! employ thu services of n special class of men and women who are known technically as "window drcsaors , " and whoso Roln , or at any rate chief busincsx it is to attend to displaying properly the goods in the show windowi. These window dressers are libcrnllj paid , one receiving as salary of $3,000 a year , and several rejoicing in the very respectable stipend of $2,500 per annum. Thcso window dressers do nothing but dress windows , which oc cupation , aa their cstaolishmonts change the display in their windows jnco or twice every month , demands their entire working time. Others combine with their window dressing ho selling of goods , and it is stated by a largo retail dry goods dealer , as one of tliujesults of liis experienced ob servation , "that any man who has sense and taato enough to dress a win- low has and must have ability and act enough to make a first-rato sales- nan. " The preparation of an elab orate show window is often the tusk if many weeks. Ono of the retail try goods and fancy goods houses be gins to prepare for its holiday show vindowa on the 1st of October. An mportor of notions 'ha& made two rips to Paris in the course of the 'evolution" of his display in his 'front of the house , " while a third establishment has employed two men and a woman eight hours i day , Sunday inclusive , for the list -three weeks , to procure the lesirod results. Several points are of ho first importance in the dressing of a nhow window. The blending and ho contrasting of colors must bo at- ended to in every detail. Then the background" of the window. BO to peak , must tocoivo due attention , seas as to "bringout" iho "oflbcto. " Then are must bo taken to produce both 'day" and "night effects , " as they are ailed , nnd so to arrange the exhibits lint ono will not interfcro with the they. A show window has to bo rilliantly illuminated by gaslight or loctric hghtns well as to bo criticized nd examined by sunlight ; nnd every loughtful man , especially every leatrical man , will understand how illicult it is to rondornnythitig equal- t attractive by day and night.
