" asked a raportor of a member ol ! the clericil force of that oflico. "Largely increased , " he replied turning over his books. "For Instance , thli month of February shows the total col lections from all sources to bo over $131 } , 000 ; these of February , last year , wor ( a trills over § 92,000. This ratio of in' crease will bo very nearly maintained during the entire year. " "Is this increase particularly notlcoa bio on any ono item ? " "Yes , on liquor stumps ssld. You TflL observe that last February , for example the revenue from the sale of spiiiti amounted to § 83,319.30 , while this yea' for a corresponding period , the sum Tra § 122,000. To what IB this Iarco ? Increas attributable ? Very largely to ( lie fac that oincu List February , the Ncbraski City distillery hai ttarted up , thus a ! fording a largo additional revenue fron this source.

The hoaviei ultro-glycerino explosion ever known In tl oil country , wherein nearly 0,000 pounds i the dread annihllator were touched off , o cuirod yesterday noon at Howard Jimctioi three mlhs north of Bradford. There are I catod the factory , magazine , nti other buildings of tha Hoc Glycerine Manufacturing Compan ; i\vo men , II. V. Pratt , an employe , and V H.

How tha a cldcnt occurred will never bo known , but o' ' servers at Ouster City , about half a ml away , state that two almost simultaneoi flashes wore followed by a deafening rope and white smoke , nnd large boulders at quantities of debris were thrown high In tl air. Hushing down to the scene , they found th the destruction had been appalling nnd co > i ploto. Where the factory bad been there w now a large circular holu ten feet deep , whi at the place where the magazine was located hole twenty-five feet ia depth and thirty forty feet in dlametdr was scooped out of tl ground neatly ni if It had been the work a profetslonal excavator.

Population of Clilnn. The vexed question of the extent the population of China seema to hi been pretty definitely Battled by ! Illchaid Temple , the eminent Eogl geographer and scholar , In a lecture contly delivered by him before the S Ustical society of London. The number last published by the government wni about 350,000,000 , but the Inaccuracy of Us censuses Is shown by the conttint variance in its reports , its previous census being no loss than 403,000,000. In determining his results Sir Rlehard Temple appllci the connis methods used in India , which have been very accurate , and'whlch ho justifies because the area of the two countries is jnst about the samp , India nnd China proper each having about 1- 500,000 equaro miles , while both countries are under similar physical , technical , cii * matic and geographical conditions , and there Is the tame tcudcniy to multiply in each. each.Tno Tno entire Chinese Emplro contains nearly 4,500,000 square milts , of which China proper ( that is , excluding the cen tral plateau , which is comparatively barton - ton and sparsely populated ) has one-third , sapporlog an Immense population. The average of population in India Is 181 to the square mile , the area being 1,337450 aquaro mlcs [ and the population253,041- ! ! ( ] ' . ) . Applying this average to China proper , the population would bo 282- 191 COO. The most densely populated of the eighteen provinces is that of the Pechlll , which contains the two great cities of Pokln and lion-Tain , and which his 18 200,000 souls. Estimating the population of tlio conhal plateau at 15- 000,000 nnd adding to it the 282,000,000 of China proper , the lecturer set down the entire population at 207,000,000. In round number ? , therefore , the1 Colojthh prob bly number about 300,000,000 , or 50,000,000 lots than the Chinese clliclala claim. A specially Interesting feature of these statistics la their correction of certain impressions which have always been hold regarding the vastncss of the Uhlnoso Empire. It has always bson accepted without question that China writ the largest empire in the world so far ai population was concerned , whereas , if those estimates ore in any way correct , the reputation of that em pire very little exceeds that of the British Empire , though far greater than that of Franco and her colonies ; while the equal ly prevalent impression that the Buddhlste far outnumber the Christian population of the world is equally incorrect , the disparity being very considerably reduced. Aa a matter of interest In this connection it may bo stitod that the British Em plro numbers roundly about 250,000,000 , of which 214,050,577 belong to her col onies , while .Franco with her colonies , can mnstor only 43,502,403 , of which C- , 800,445 belong to her cclonies. How much she will add to thia number after she gets through with her present war with the 300 million Celestials remains to bo seen. ' A WASHINGTON HOME. Itcsidenco of lion , S , S. Cox , on Du- pout Circle. No. 1 , Dupont circle , writes n Wash ington correspondent to tha Toronto Mall , is a pretty bijou of a house owned by the Hon. Mr. and Mrs. S. S. Cor , ol of Now York. Everybody knows "Sun set" Cox , or "Sunshine , " to which his political friends say the nickname must now bo changed , since the democratic curtain h about to ring np. Ho is the nit of the house and i has reigned .with ever-increasing power since 1857. Mr. Coz la the well-known author of manj well-known books , Is a constant contrlb ntor to magazines , and makes racj speeches In the house on the "stump,1 and "after dinner. " His books an ' " "Sunbeams"Arctli 'Why Wo Laugh , , and Orient , " "The Buckeye Abroad,1 "A Search for Winter Sunbeams in the Riviere , Corsica , Algiers and Spain.1 There it also a brochure on "Froo Trade , ' and endless volumes tpf "Speeches it Congress , " &nd all have the dntluctlvi mark of the author's genius of wit , kcoi knowledge of human nature , and tha rare dramatic knack of bringing the dis tant and foreign to the reader's presenci and somprenenslon. For the rest , HMr Cox commenced public lifo as an editor as he ii aa Ohio man , and what fnrthe : that Is complimentary can bo said of i man save that ho is a gentleman. Mr Cox is short of stature , alight of frame dresses with great care , and ii swift am nervous in hla motions. In all humai probability ho will tako'a high placj ii Mr. Cleveland's government. But I commenced to toll about tli > house. It Is Queen Anne , with a rounc tower on the corner , a romantic portico and numerous great and small window of stained glass that throw lovely tintei Uqhts In the rooms. The facade Is o green serpentine stone from Pennsylvania nia , which makes It look extremely oil and altogether unique. As you enter it exquisite portals there is a small recep tlon room on the lett. The walla of thl t room nro colored Pompeian red , wind make a sympathet'c background for a foi water colors. "Tho Vcrmillion Tower of the Alhambra , " and another showia tbo yellow stucco pll'ara ' , which is th prevailing color through the castle in th "Court of Lions1' In the Alhambra , coin the prettiest. A marine view b ; EUcoo ocupiea ono wall , and th model of the Alhambra port : co hangs over a small writing desk. In the bow of the window Is a old chair of English oak , covered wit Spanish Cordova lea'hor. In anothe recess Is a quaint old chair from th house of representatives that was from the flamoa when the capitol wo d burned in 1814 , The colling is tinted i e aorlal blno , and birds of bright plumage it gay butterflies , and swallows are wlngln their flight overhead. It la a pretty cor celt , and gives a suggestion that anyon can utilized. The birds and butteril'c are cut from cards and pasted on th colling. They could , of conne , t paluted. We cross the hall to enter tit drawing-room , which Is an oblong root with the door at ono side , and at the en it opens into the dining-room. This e ; quislte honeo is a souvenir house , alraos as Mr. Cox keeps the homo in Now Yor city always open. Its ornaments an decorations comprise many of the article they have githoml on their many an extensive tours in Europe and Aslr Mrs. Cox has accompanied her hnsban in all his varied travels abroad , ontei with spirit into all h's ' studies tnd pr < joota , and aids him with good counee and by always providing for him just th thing ho most requires. Bho Ii indee the ideal wife of a literary man , keeplc all small annoyances from him and mat aginp her household with rra tict an skill , BO that her foot never touches tt tbo ground of sordid things. The vral ate % soft , grey-tinted peacock , and o the polished floor are two magnifies ) ruga ; the doorsTand windowsara bur with cnrtiins of embroidered linen at Roman striped drugget.
