ONJ V A IirGAUOO. Disi'.ieo Does Not Lurk in lta > Im ported I'Tom 10 ti rope , From the ] 3oston ] ' 'lobu. A party of rag merchants and paper manufacturers were collected In an cilice on Federal street , discussing the embargo on raga. "I * hink the cry of disease in imported rags ia only n cry , and nothing more , " said one. "I believe that the scare has but little fact upon which to rest. have boon in the rag business in Boston Tor forty years , and in that porion I have not known of n single instance whore diacaso has been contracted by Infected rags. " "How has the embargo affected the price of rags ? " inpuired one. "It has caused an average rise in prices of ! J5 per cent , " was the reply. "Somo kinds have boon affected as high us GO per cent. The embargo was issued by Acting Secretary of the Treasury Coon , September 1 , nnd has roaultod in ao much loss to the rag dealers and paper makers in this country , that a strong effort fort is now being made to have the re striction removed , " "To what extent nro rags Im ported ? " "Tho capital invested in the business is enormous. Rags are imported from all parts of the civilized world. Some firms import most largely from London , Liverpool nnd Glasgow. Others do the creator part of their business with French and Italian poats , whllo a largo portion of our imported raga como fron ? China. " "Do wo export rags to any extonU" "No , not to nny noteworthy extent. Occasionally small shipments of woolen rags arc made , but this happens very sol dom. " "How does the embargo nlloct the pa per basilicas ? " "It has resulted in sorioua detriment , and several meetings of paper manufac turers have already been held to devise wavs and means to linvo it lifted , The manufacturers < 4 oook paper have dis cussed this matter in convention. Pre vious to the j'er.r IftliO the price of book paper waa 11 to Hi conta per pound , and news paper 10 conta per pound. At the present day book paper is 7 to U contu per pound and nowa paper 5 to ( i cents But it is evident that if the embargo con tinufs ragB must advance from 50 to 200 per cent , with a corresponding incroaBd in the price of paper. " "Is there u good supply of raga on hand just now ( " "No. The supply is ao limited that in another month the 000 or 1,000 millu , which "so 2,000 to ! 1,000 tona each day , will have ground up every rag in their possession " "What is your opinion regarding Act ing Secretary Coon'a notion ? " "Tho greater part of those with whom I have conversed claim that the embargo ia entirely uniiPceiaury. Thorn is an idw atnniiif the public that the urn largo wil end iJeceinVr I but that is a mistake1 The Treasury department will not assume the rc8poi U > ility of raining it nt all , but will contlnno the mnhnrgo until the opouinc of the now year In order to shift ho responsibility from the oxcculivo iranch of the govornmeu to the legisla tive. When the question gets into Con- ; rc s it will probably bo delayed six nonths , nnd then when they do finally take it up wo shall prolahly bo in the nlddlo of the hot weather , BO that they nay consider it unwise to remove the embargo for six months longer. Such is ho prospect , A loading paper manufacturer said that 'ovory prado of papcr _ must advance in > rico. At a meeting held in Boston on ho 0th lust , the writing paper mnnufac- urora ngrccd to ndvanco prices 2 conta > rr pound. The amount of raw material on hand among manufacturers of paper Islet lot oiKnijjh to supply the demand until December 1. The Incroaao in the price of rag paper will , I think , divert the chemically pruparod wood pulp to writing taper. The present situation has been "ully grnaped by n few loading paper nanufacturorfl , who have secured nil 'oroign stock , spot nnd what ia on the valor. " Another man thought that there waa n possibility of the gonna of diacaso being sarriod in raga. "While the medical pro- "csaion is in doubt as to whether the nicrobo is the _ cause or the result of iholnrn , the prohibition of importing rags from infected diatriota ia a wise ono. " was lie opinion. "Thorp may not bo microbes n Indian or Kgyptian rage , but still there nay bo cholera , nnd , for my part , I think .hat no foreign rnga should bo allowed to 10 brought to this country so long as .hero ia cholorn nbroad. Perhaps , were t not for the embargo , wo would now bo sulforlng from the cholera ourselves. " K POINTS l-'Olt ltO.1tISO , jirntiiltoim Advice to tlic Grass Valley AiimtuurPrnnmtir Association. They've started nn nmateur dramatic aesociatlon up nt Grass Valley , nnd the icavy tragedian writes to the dramatic editor of The San Francisco Post Hint .hey nro preparing to perpetrate "llo- neo nnd Juliet" in n few wcoks , nud wanted to know whether there is nny now "business" in the part of Shakes- Dcnro'd immortal lover wo can put him ip to. Of course there is. There ia no jranch of the ntts in which "roaliatio" mprovomonta nro carried to greater lengths than in acting. In the first place , in setting the balco- ; iy scone our correspondent will find it over so much moro effective to substitute an ordinary back yard board fence for the old-fashioned inconvenient wall. This la not only easier to climb over , but the nu- dionco can bo rniaod to a roaliatio { fitch of expectation by hearing Romeo feel slong the other aide for a knot-hole to servo ns n good too-bold. Everything depends on tho.so little details. A few clothes-lines stretched from the house to the fence filled with .luliot'a striped ptockinga nnd - nnd things , would add immeasurably to the naturalness of the Bcouo. But probably tlo moat olfectivo innovation would be wp think it is lienry Irvlng's idea the introduction of n uilo of mortar nnd n lot of bricks , while a hole in the kitchen wall would com plete the suggestion that the Capulot range boiler waa being repaired by the plumbers , na is the case all the year round in most families. The reason for this obviouo introduc tion of the bricks becomes apparent later on. In the course of the scone Romeo's love avowals become much interfered with by the howling of adjacent cats something , wo must boar in mind , that would infallibly bo the case in real life. The scene shifter could add to this olfoct by standing behind said practicable fence and elevating nn India rubber cat Into the scenery at judicious intervals. Thia cat should bo constructed with movable glass eyes , which should bo illuminated some how by an Internal taper. Our corre spondent can easily imagine the effect produced on the audience by Romeo slamming n practicable brick at Thomas every tlmo ho stopped for breath. When nil the tricks nnd Romeo are exhausted , Juliet could bring down the housa by tossing to her lover papa Oapulot's bootjack , and if Romeo could manage to biff the feline right between the eyes with it aa the curtain wont down ho could make n hit. Of conrso nil this now business requires n greac denl of careful rehearsing , nnd perhaps the pitcher of the Grass Valley nine would do the role the greatest justice. This will do for the present ; but wo have alee n novel improvement that our cor respondent might introduce Into the "apothecary" sccno , and which would noc only help tlij organization in ques tion to turn an honest penny , but would materially aid in calling public attention to a really meritorious patent medicine.

Knittloplrtl Ity llusliics Tlint Oltcii CAIIM-N An- nit ) mice. Now York Mull nnd K\proi. A young man , heavily freighted with Hindlos , entered the wholesale depart- uent of ono of the largest dry goods cs- -ablishmcnta in this city n fontriaya ago ml called on the heart of the department. ; lo observed , sitting behind n ( leak nttho leer n middle aged gentleman , who eyed lim auspiciously , nnd seemed on the point > f speaking to him , but aa ho was in n uirry , and seeing hia friend sitting nt the ) thor end of the room , ho paid no attou- Ion to him , but hartlly brushed past the leak , carrying his pnckngca with him. Vfter n fuw minutes conversation with ho manager , ho nroso and again np- ironchcd the door. Before ho could pass ho desk , however , the doorkeeper , for itich won the position of the middlo-ngod ; ontlomnu , requested him to atop , " 1 nm sorry to trouble you , sir , " ho ro- narked , "but 1 should like to examine 'our parcels. " "Examine my par cola I' , oxclnmcd the oung man in surprise. "What are they o you1 / brought thorn hero with mu nnd intend to take thorn them away with no. " "That's all right , sir , " replied the door , cooper , doggedly , "but I must see what .hoy contain for myself.1' ' "What ia that to you ? " responded the risitor , angrily. "What do you cnrn vhother they hold butter or dry goods ! . pnid for them myself nnd it ia none of your business what they are. Get out of ny wny _ nnd lot mo pass. " Hearing the loud talking nt the dour ho manager came quickly to the rescue of hia unfortunate friend and inquired vlmt waa the matter. "do won't lot mo oxamlno hia bundle , jir , " responded the dooruoopor , "nnd aa . didn't check them when ho paaaod by icro I don't see what I nm to do about t. I know it's all right , but you know as well as 1 do , that if I don't ' BOO them nysolf I'll lese my plnco hero. " "That's n fact , " oplained the man ager. "You see there has boon so much .hioving in the otoro that wo have adopt ed this rule. Look nt the sign on the door. " The visitor looked up nnd road a notice o the olfoct that nil persona coming into ho store with bundles in their hands should lonvo the name with the door- cooper nnd receive n check for them , otherwise the doorkeeper was required o oxnmlno their contents nnd aatlafy liniaolf that they contained nothing pil- erod from the store. "Thoro is no exception to the rule , " continued the manager. " 1 couldn't take a package out of hero myaolf. You see , ho dishonest talesmen , and every store iao some of thai kind at ono time or an other , got in the habit of having a con- odorato como in hero with n largo bun dle. They would take him nround and show him goods and meanwhile secrete some valuable article in hia package. Vftor this waa done , the confederate vould walk out with the stolen goods un der hia arm , and no one would bo the visor for the thoft. To prevent this the iropriotors adopted this rule , and this doorkeeper would bo discharged if ho made nny exception to it. As the visitor , overcome with the logio of his friend's remarks , waa spreading out hia nrrny of parcels on the book-koop- era desk , n well-dressed gentleman who had a pencil back of hia oar and were no hat , came flurrying out of the door with n amall paper bundle in his hand. "I bog your pardon , air , " remarked the door-keeper .stopping out from behind his deal : , "but orders ia orders , you know. " "To bo aure , " responded the gentleman - man , "to bo sure , " and ho promptly aub- mittod the parcel to inspection. It was soon examined , the contents noted down in a book kept for that purpose , nnd In n minute it wan returned to him nnd ho disapponrod down the ntairs. "That is the senior partner , " observed the door-keeper , ns ho began untying the largest parcel. Horace ( Jrci'loy and ( Jon. Soott. Ono of the many interesting anecdotes told by Gon. U. D. Koyos in hia "Fifty Yoara' Observation of Mon and Events , " just publiahod by Charles Scrihar's Sons , la the following , concerning Horace Orcoloy nnd Gon. Soott : "I remember that in the first canvass of Gon. Scott for the presidency , Horace Grooley came tome mo in the cara ono day , nnd naked mo to explain Wilkin's churgo nuainet Scott for using his soldier's money. I was not then nblo to dotall nil the facts , but I told Mr. ( irooloy that tlio charge was slanderous , and that arose from a trans action usual in the army , nnd which was the result of forgotfulneaa or slight error in accounts. 1 had never before BOOH Mr. Grcoloy , who was then beginning to attract notice ns the editor of the Now York Tribune. At thnt time ho was about . ' (5 ( years old , round-faced and healthful , with blue eyes and very light hair. The restless eagerness of his in terrogations denoted the character ho afterward established , which enabled him to change his convictions or ruling texts and hobbies ns suddenly aa a bird in a cage hops from ono porch to nnotiior. Mr. Grooley wan a man of good inten tions , but ho made the grout mistake of hilling himself with overwork , In order to louvo the world hotter than ho found it , nnd to bo president. During the siege of Paris hippoghagy was n matter of necessity. Since 1871 the consumption of horao-floah has gone on atoadlly increasing. In 187'1 the number of horsed slaughtered for food in Paris waa 1 , < 82. Ton yoara later the consumption had moro than doubled. In 18811 Paris nto H.-ISB horses , 'J07 aases and forty mules , or not abort of 5,000,000 pounds weight of horse , ass and mule moat. The explanation of this Increase Is the high price of beef ntid mutton in the French capital. While tlio artisan can purchase n horse atonk at loss than Iti conta n pound , ho has to pay throe timea as much for a cut of beef or mut ton. Among the hippophargista of Paris the llesli of the asu and the mule is cs- t"omcd oven moro highly than that of the horse , these delicacies fotchinu' u price 15 to iiO per cent higher than simple horse lloah.
