There is a romarkable rage torcl' cks
among the fashionable people of Phila
delphia, some families baying as many
ablty or sixty iime-piecea, which tbey
neyer wiod up, but only keep t- look
at. . r -

Senator B-ard made a neat and ef-
r.; thrust at Senator Inalls. If
QV' -
iDitalls had denied that he had ever
beeh suspected, says the Augusta
Chronicle, perhaps .the record might
shew uMVerently, not to speak of Mr.
Vest's scrap hook.
-
The real cause o. Blaine's defeat bass
been discovered by the Christian States
man. He travelled all one - Sunday
during his campaigning. Up. to this
violation of the fourth commandment
his chances seemed most flattering, but
afterward disasters were incessant.
Dr. Porbes, in the proceedings of the
Philadelphia Medical Society, describes
an operation by which the ring finger of
musicians is liberated from some of the
accessory tendons of its extensor
muscles and thus acquires freedom k of
movement. Cottschalk is saM to have
undergone an operation of the kind.
Mr. Ruskin despise9 a sewing ma
chine, and wants all the girls to make
their dresses by hand. Still, it must ba
borne in mind that this violent reformer
ha9 all bis clothes made by a tailor aud
of alt things under the sun, an English
tailor at that. Mr. Ruskiu, girls, does
not make his clothes by haud himself.
This, also, is like a man ; just exactly
like a man.
Cards arc out announcing the engage
ment of Master Willie Scott, aged 4
years, of Gordonsviile, Va., and Miss
Jennie Perry, aged 6 years, of Charles
ton, West Va. It will be interesting
to note in future years how much
weight this parental contract will have
with the youngsters. Cupid is an
erratic fellow and makes sad havoc
with the plans of men.
Although jute has now assumed such
importance as an article of commerce,
the first attempts to utilize its
fibre were not made in Europe un
til 1834-5, and it was ou!y when the
Crimean war deprived England of Rus
sian flax and hemp that jute fibre be
came highly vai ued. Tho centre of the
trade in Great Britain is Dundee. Ot
late years Germany has gone largely
into it.
Persian carpets are rarely large, be
cause they are chiefly woven, says a
recent consular report from Teheran
by the women and children f the peas
antry in the villages. Thus, a country
man will have a rug made in his own
house, and when it is done he takes it to
the nearest town and sells it for what it
will fetch. Of late years, however,
much larger carpets have been made
for the foreign market.
"San Francisco," says an exhibi tant
"has not been a clean city from the day.
of its foundation. There is Oriental
dirt and Occidental dirt. It - has come
to be a foreign city. Merchandise fills
the sidewalks, and in many placesraingf followed by colder clearing
crowds the pedestrian into the street.
Offal is thrown there. The six'months'
tradewinda of Summer and the six
months rain are the two sanitary
agents which keep watch and ward
over the city.'
Chicago has 6,000 persons, about one
in every 100 of its population, who
constitute the select social circles rep
resented in the new 'Elite Directory"
for 1885. The book is printed on gilt
edged paper, and is said to be entirely
worthy of a place beside Shakespeare
and the family album, which form the-
library of the marble-top table of the
Chicago parlor. The leading streets in
which "Society" lives are Mich
igan and Washington boulevards
Indiana, Wabash, Prairie, and
Dearborn avenues. Some Alder
men are in the fashionable direc
tory, and. to keep up its tone, a list , is
given of elite tradesmen, dentists, doc
tors, and churches.
"I would not live alway." said the
Psalmist in a moment of poetic rapture
"I would not either," says Josh Bil
lings, irreverently. So we say-but then
while we do live, let us hold on to our
health and spirits. The surest way to
Jo this, is to lay in a supply of Dr.
Ball's Cough Syrup. Try it.

Winter is nearly half gone and we
have had but very little cold weather
thus far. It has been a season prolific
with colds for the human family and
there are many now suffering with the
annoying disorder. We imagine that
the weather will be considerably colder

The supper at the City Hall to-morrow

abundance besides other attractions.

New City Directory.
Messrs DeRosset & Meares, have
made arrangements for the completion
of a new directory of the City, some
thing which is really needed here. The
last which was gotten up. two years
ago, was very incomplete and very in
correct and is really but of little va ue
for reference and there is therefore a
demand for a good, reliable one. This
these gentlemen propose to supply.
The work will be done carefully and
elaboiately and the result will be sure,
we think, to prove satisfactory. Messr
John Cults and Thomas Muse began
to-day a canrass of the city for the
names and these, with the members of
the residences, will be properly given.
We observe quite a fine display of
new Revolvers for very reasonable
prices, at Jacobt's Hardware Depot. t
TRIBUTE OF RESPECT,
The following preamble anil resolutions
werv adopted at a meeting of tbe W Hmtnjrten
Steam Fhe knglne Company No. 1, held Jan
nan' 6, 1885:
"iNMRMOhY LOCEED."
W hen leaaporal care are thrust aside, that
a frien dy tear may be shed over the grave of
one who filled with usefulness every station
of life in which his lot had been c st, the re
flective genius of atsoi iatcs mty find many
virtues tbaf are worthy of emulatl m, and a
con- n t at moral life from whl. h to car ea
pattern. To e3rn the esteem of thote with
whom we are brougrt In daily contact, and
atKxeaafntiy to parry it through life, cvn lo
the ex ve is an enviable aisttuc ijn vouch
safed bi but few.
To Ico through the vista of time into a fu
turity, whose bounds thou7h circumscribed
by a le w ears more than a moiety of the lie
brew FsalaUi's limit, and to to order our
course through life that onr nuneg when we
tro down into silence are echoing on this side
of the grave, at d human voices are talking
pleasantly about us, is truly to gather to our
memories the pearls that sparkle from the un
fathomable deeps of affection, and the dia
monds that glitter from the caverns of the
hevt, '
Teath ha3 agai i entered into our ranks, an
other victim claimed and made to succumb to
his relentless demand, Captain FREDERICK
O. HOBlNtOS, who rrom the ihcipieney of
this ompanv has been Willi us, hath been
called from time to eternity.
Deeply sensible of the loss which we have
sustained, and cogaizaH ot a voi 1 which is
d flic U to fill, we, the surviving members of
the i ompany. are de&ir oua ot making this
formal and public recognition of the services
which we received at his hands, in helping us
through our onerous and perplexing duties a
firemen. Therefore, be it
Resolved, That in the death of Captain Rob
inson, our former Foreman and Chief of the
Fire J epartmenl, this Company has lost a
true friend, a wise counsellor and a sagacious
leader.
Risolved, That a blank page be left in the
Records of this Company, upon which the offi
cial position whrch ne tilled in the Fire De
partment shall be Inscribed, his name, and
date of birth and death.
Re$olved, That a copy of these proceedings
be transmitted. to the family of the deceased,
and f arnlshed to the newspapers of the city
for publication.
