The shirt-waist man was "put out" recently at SuUolk court. - According to instructions ' Shsrill Baker cleared the court-room of .-the men in the delightfully cool eurnmer girtnent. The following ia related about a wager vhich the incident pro voked : i "When the Sheriff had driven them out one of the excluded wagered an other shirt waist man $2 he could not attend court without a coat. The man who accepted the let wa? of ehoit stature juid he etased inside long enough to win bcfoio being observed." Few possessions on a farm or even on a fairly good-sized lot in town pays as well as a cow. The Monroe Journal reprints some facts from the Moores ville Enterprise that are worth remem bering. Mayor C. V. Voila in IS90 purchased a cow IS months old for $25. He kept her eleven years, during which time the cow produced 4,000 pounds of butter, which at the low price of 15 cents -rer pound was worth $ GOO. Major Voil sold her for ?25 and said the milk and the fertilizer from' the stall had been worth the feed. - The Commonwealth believes in every man haying a cow if she can te ailowed some grazing ground or some i-xcreifcfng ground, but to keep"cows in fbills or too small pens ail the time slacks, somewhat of cruelty to animais. The flying machine is coming, it seem?, after all. Mr. Santcs-Dumornt a Frenchman, i3 said to have about succeeded in making a flying machine that will not only go, but will go where be wants it. ... It is dirri!ed a cigar-, shaped balloon propelled' by. a prelro leum motor and capable ol speed of twenty miles an hour. He - gayo an exhibition at Paris recently, and this"' is whatsis said of the exhibition : "M. Santos-Dumont appears to have hU machine UEder perfect control fn the air. At a . recent trial he sailed five times around the Longchamps race course at a good rate of" speed fol lowing almost exactly the same line every time. "Afterwards be made his way direct ly to several - designated points and landed exactly where he started. "Thi3 achievement has' attracted much attention and convinced many scientists fnat the flying machine will soon be so perfected that it can be put to practical uses." - ' The question was recently assed by the New York ; World, What ia the besfuse to which Mr. Carnegie can put hia $275,000,000 hich ho wishes to give away? - :- . - A number of persons have expressed the idea that the best thing would' be for Mr. Carnegie to paKe provisions whereby the unhappy and suffering dinizens In the crowded city tenements ia the North :ould be given an oppor tunity of taking tip farm life in "the country. . The Atlanta Journal approves of the plan and eays that of all the States Georgia is far and away the best one in which to launch such an enterprise. The Com mos wealth rises to ask What is the matter with North Caroli na? We had an-idea that North Cair . - - ,- olina is about - the best State in the South for almosf any thing good.

For a great many years doctors pro nounced it a l jcal disease, and prescribe ed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable, i Science, has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and, therefore requires consti tutional treatment.

He states two objections to spiders. ;They are not insects, and they feed on animal food. ' Cockroaches are a foundation for a -delicious soup. M. Dagin follows the recipe given hy Senator Testelin in a speech delivered in the senate on Feb ruary v12, 1878: "Pound your cock roaches in a mortar; put in a sieve, and pour in boiling water or beef stock." Connoisseurs prefer4his to real bisque. M. Wilfrid de FonvieUe, the French sci entist, prefers the cockroache's in the larval state. The perfect insect may be shelled and eaten like a shrimp; that way Dr. Gastler, member of the national assembly of 1848, used to eat them. : Caterpillars are a light food of easy digestion; Not only African and American native races but Frenchmen appreciate them. M. de Lalande, as tronomer, had dinner every Saturday with the zoologistjQaatreni&re d'lsjon valle. Mmc. dlsjonvalle, who knew his tastes, collected in lbeaftemoon all the caterpillars she could find in her garden and served then? on 'a plate to her guest. The most popular insect food is the locust". It is eaten fried, dried in the sun, ground in flour, broiled (among the IJeduin), boiled in milk (a Morocco recipe), or fried and served with rice as in Madagascar. The Jesuit Father Cambou thinks that locust flour might become popular in Europe as a condiment. Travelers' opinions on lo custs differ. .Amieis. finds they taste like shrimps, Niebuhr like sardines, Livingston like caviare.'- FRICTION AND SPEED. 1 Clear Explanation of a Law -That Has Seemed More or Less of a " Mystery to Everybody. The following explanation of why friction is less" at high than at low speeds is due to Capt. Galton, who gave it in connection vVith the Gaiton-West-inghouse brake trials in England. Rail way and Locomotive Engineering, in a discussion of the subject, calls it the clearest explanation yet given. Says the v riter: ' - ( "It should be borne in mind that any two surfaces Which are placed in con tact are not perfectly smooth surfaces, but havesmall inequalities or rough ness upon them. The figure shows in a very exaggerated form what two sur faces in contact may be supposed to. " THE LAW OF FRICTION. be like. Wfien the two surfaces are at rest relatively to each other;the hills of the upper surface will fit closely into the hollows of the lower one. But if the surfaces are in rapid motion past each other, the upper surface will not have time to fit itself into the lower, but' would take a position like that shown in the figure. Then any point at O of the upper surface would first be dragged up to the vertex A, and would then-fly across the space A C, till it struck some point O on B C. As the speed was greater, the distance through which O would fall in the pass age would be less; consequently the distance O C would be less, and the work of dragging O -up to the vertex C would be less also. Hence it might be- seen how the actual work done per foot-run of service, or, in other words, the apparent coefficient would be less as the speed was greater." ' Iii(ail Air for Blastina-. In the new Simplon tunnel experi ments have been made with liquid air for blasting purposes. The cartridges consisted of wrappers filled with par affin and charcoal soaked with liquid air.4 When. placed in the shot holes they were detonated! with guncotton primers,; The use of these cartridges was discontinued because they had to be fired within a few minutes after be ing taken out of the liquid, else their powr was'gonc. But the problem of adapting liquid air to blasting" is still being studied in Germany. .. : ' ' , . A. Safe for Every Flat. . The latest -conrenience in the New York apartnent is a private safe, built into the Wall, and so arranged that only the tenant is acquainted with the combination.

Navies are soon ko disappear, ac cording to a. critip who has been watching recent mechanical depeiopi ment. lie knows that nothing is more likely to become obsolete than an existing naval institution, the moment somethings better is discov eredj and he point to the rapid ex tinction of wooden warships pro pelled by sails when the Merrimac Monitor fight demonstrated that with such vessels the greatest squadrons under the ablest commanders were at the mercy of a Utile iron monitor 1,nmni,hli1 -IJ tnntTtir J.r rnBls Wanrt ,h, ,?.rl his utilization of a; water-blanket to protect submarine boats, .will, ; says this critic, render ships that float on the surface worthless. The float ing warship, he says, will be subject . NAVAL FIGHT OF THE FUTUr.3. to attack from above and from bg neath by enemies which it cannot reach. lie draws, therefore, an interesting ftnd thrilling picture of a naval bat tle of the future, which includes a fight between a flying machine and a submarine boat. This, he sa ys, is not so improbable as it .seems. 'The flyjng" machine can, he saysiv see the submarine beneath the sur face when it would be invisible to men on a. vessel, just "as the s fish hawk 'can locate its submerged vic ti nfr" As rhe a eroplane can move with celerity, it can hover over the submarine until the latter is com pelled to come to the surface for air or rises for attack. Then it can drop dynamite bombs upon the submarine and train rapid-fires upon its thin sheii. , ; , " The submarine, however, will not be quite helpless. A welbaimed shot from its bow rapid-fires (which can be uncovered the moment the nose of the boat rises above the surface) would instantly put the flying ma chine out of business, thds clearing the way for other submarines to rise to the surface or A or a bevy of friendly flying machines to come up. Meanwhile, there would be no vessels in sight. ..'(... The critic does not, however, utter ly extinguish ships. They can, he says, -act in a subordinate capacity, dependent upon the preliminary fight ing which must be done between fly ing machines and submarines to clear the mouths of harbors and make navigation safe. It. is admitted that a "big dynamite or guncotton bomb dropped from the air upon the deck of the strongest warship afloat might be likely to destroy it. Moreover, "a submarine getting home a single tor pedo uponthe bottom of such a ship would sink, it. . But naval officers (ever conserva tive and properly waiting for dem onstrated superiority before accept ing so-called improvements) eomfort themselves with the reflection that command of .the air and of the sub-, marine world is far from being ac tually achieved and that so' far as anybody can see navies will remain in extstfen.ee for a few years yet. WARM WEATHER DIET Meats, Heavy Sonps and Hot Bread Should Be Used Sparingly , from June to October. "It is astounding, said a physician to the writer, "how, little thought the people give to their food in relation to various seasons of the year. "'To this very carelessness I lay much sum mer, sickness, often an illness that ends fatally. Take the matter of left-overs. A warming hash, "ragout or meat pie is all right for the depth of winter, but not for weather when the blood needs cooling. , I would en treat every housekeeper not to buy a morsel of pork, ham or ; sausage IfroEi June till October." Reserve even f beef, lamb .and veal for ' the cooler days of ' summer, and in long hot spells let ; meat "alone entirely. Na ture provides f of these burning days with ' vegetables and fruit, tender chicken and fine, firm, white-fleshed fish." If you have left-over foods to be utilized, convert them into chilled, appetizing salads instead "of ragouts. If soups are a necessity, let them be thin consomme or chicken" soup, not purees, or bisques." Twould prohibit pe and rich cake, and let fruit, ices, delicate jellies or milk puddings take their place. Fd also put a veto on hot breads.

The first statement is, of course, cor rect, as no human being in the world is exactly like any of his f ellolvs. But the assertion that the thumb marks never change throughout life and would serve as a means of iden tification from the cradle to the grave, is, to-say the least, s decided' exaggeration. I have given the sub ject a careful investigation and have shown by a number of experiments that the configuration is liable to such changes as render it entirely unrecognizable when compared with a print of the original markings: The alterations may come from a variety of causes anything, in fact, that will destroy the outer layer of skin. "I took an India ink impression .of mf own thumb several years ago and not long after"! -blistered both of them pretty severely while rowing on the lake. "Ss usual the outer skin" peeled off and it occurred to me one day to take, a new impression an.d see whether the flesh surface-vWas an ex act fac-simile of the old. I was as tonished at the variations and all my preconceived ideas of the immutabil ity of the mark were .knocked higher than a kite. It is true the changes Were more in the nature f a distor tion of the former patterns .than a complete rearrangement of the lineS, but they were so pronounced that any value the marks may have had for identification purposes was en tirely lost. They excited my interest and I persuaded a few of my friends to loan me their thumbs for experi ments." I first took India ink impress sions and then removed the top skin w ith a solution of arnica. The "skin layer that came off was a mere film hot nearly so thick as in. my case yet in every instance there were dis tinct and unmistakable alterations in the lines. One man's second' print was so changed you would never in the world have identified it with the first. Another modifying cause is the tendency of the thumb to develop little -horizontal creases as one grows old. This is especially true of me chanics and ' other working people who use tools, and eventually the creases will break up the skin con figuration to such an .extent that it is" equivalent almost to a rearrange ment of the pattern. "Yes, I know that popular belief is dead against me on fhe subject," added the doctor in response to a question, "but there are a lot of things we take for granted in the world that won't bear scrutiny." ; WYOMING'S SOAP MINE. All Ready to Use When Taken from the Earth and Cut Into Cakes. 'v ' . Wyoming has a soap mine. A de posit of a whitish material, in com posite form, containing just enough sulphates, potash and pumice to give gritty essential, has been discovered five miles west of Newcastle, in the northwestern part of Wyoming, says the Denver Times. Th deposit lies in a fissure and dips, into the gr ound like a vein of mineral. The vein, so-called, is M to 18 feet wide, and runs the length of a quar ter section, which for 20 years up to date was used as a stock pasture. Probably a building of commodious dimensions, fitted7 with machinery that will cut the slabs of mineral soap into sizes for commercial use, will cover a portion of the ground. The cleanest . town In the United States, it is possible, will Be located in this section. It will be free from soot or smoke. For the factory boilers will be heated by petroleum, found near bynd the soap to keep th place clean is found in such large quantities 'in the ground, and conse nently so dirt cheap, that men can be kept on the payroll to do nothing else but look out for dirt spots and quick ly remove them. C. W. Betts, a Denver mining en gineer, had occasion recently to visit northern Wyoming with E. P. Snow, of Cheyenne, to look up some oil pros pects. They-came by this deposit. What attracted Mr. Bett's attention was the appearance of a mass that looked like soapsuds. He investigated, and, to all appearances it was soap suds. There had been a good rain the night before. This had beat on the exposed deposit in such a manner as to produce the suds.: A trial of. a chunk of the stuff on the hands result ed in determining that nature . had there left as good an arv.cle of soap to be used for washing paint, polishing culinary articles, removing grime ind grease fromthe hands as could be" manufactured by the hand of man. Mri-Betrs has plans for developing this unique find and it may.be. expect ed that- in a short time the markets of the world will besupplied with an other wonderful product from another of the states of boundless resources in the Rocky Mountain region. ,: - Value r Received.

Thus far, the exhibit of imported rowns and costumes in black, white, ar black and white combinations have proved the most elegant and attrac tive of the season. Wholly novel ef fects in black and white mixtures in silks, fancy satins, laces, nets and airy melanges in French millinery are set lor th in artistic and beautiful form. The new gimp shirt waist is supplied wlth a shawd, collar that is nearly cov- fred with lace and insertion. The gimp is joined to a closely-fitted nnder waist that has a trimmed front, the neckband finished with a turn-down lace collar. The gimp portion is tucked ail around the neck to the depth of a deep yoke. The close sleeves are fin ished with turn-back cuffs, and some 'Jmes they reach only to the elbow; and, again gathered undersleeves are added that match the gimp in fabric. A veryhandsome summer toilet of embroidered black mousseline de soie is made over, a foundation of white liberty silk. The tucked skirt, trimmed with a wid band of white Venise guipure, opens down the front over a shirred petticoat of the mous seline de soie. The blouse waist hs a front of Venise guipure, and yoke and sleeves shirred and banded with straps of black velvet ribbqn. The pointed girdle is of velvet, and the col lar and sleeve frills are of the hand some lace . The exhibition of flowered batis-tes, organdies, French lawns and India' muslins this season is more attractive and beautiful than any display of sim ilar textiles eveE made in.this city. The array of French batistes is notably dainty and -elegant, and some of the most charming gown fe for June brides maids and graduates have been made of embroidered batiste, lavishly fin ished with soft ecru lace flounces, scarf-fronted fichus draped low on ! the shouTders, and yokes and under- sleeves of plain batiste deftly gauged. Hand-embroidery and hem-stitching have been used in place of lace and insertion on some" of the most exclu sive of the batiste and other trans parent "dress" gowns of the summer. "Celestial blue" is the name of the very newest of t"he tints of this still remai-kably popular color. It is an even more beautiful shade than bvbe or turquflise blues, and-bleu celeste appears among the lovely crepes de chine, batistes, creped satins, sum mer brocades and taffetas, as(well as In the list of dainty belt and neck garnitures in chiffon, velvet or satin, and fn hat fabrics and trimmings in numerable. ' Dressmakers very frequently select the corselet skirt for traveling, out ing and beach promenade costumes fdr morning uses, and when worn over trim shirt waist of China silk dim ity or; other fabric, the effect is chic and pretty on a fairly slender figure, the cerselet top doing away with all the- details of a waist of the ordinary kind that calls for careful fastening, belting and adjusting. A short Eton Jacket is the almost invariable finish for these skirts, the most novel mod els being made with vest-front, sec tions and an Aiglofl collar. Thts jack et always matches Ihe fabric used for the skirt, which, as a rule, fs cutjwith five very shapely gores, end is made variously with suspender top?, wiUi simple pointed corselet effect, or with the front of the girdle portion slashed aid laced across with silk cords. GIRLS WITH POOR VOICES. Need of Eloentlon Lessons Is Often Apparent When Speaking- In Poblle. The most noticeable defect in an otherwise excellent dramatic per formance recently given in this city hy a set of college girls was In the matter of voices. Of the large cast there was just one young woman who possessed a voice of anything like requisite quality. Hers was both rich and carrying and itAwas an added pleasure to listen to her lines as she spoke them from the contrast with the others, says the New York Sun. , Thin, throaty tones or, worse, those with a distinct nasal intonation, are bad enough to the sensitive ear when used in the key" of ordinary conver sation. When it is needed to expand such voices to the declamatory point, then lack of volume, displacement and mellowness are painfully evident. Faithful practice-may do much to correct faults of emphasis anil inflec tion, but the most sanguine coach will not undertake to make over a poor voice in a course of three or even six weeks rehearsals. The pos sibilities of the speaking voice are beginning to be understood. Farents are discovering that it Is a wise plan to cultivate in' their daughters and their sons, too, for that matter, 'an agreeable voice for the speech of life. Instructors in the art of develop ing'the, exquisite mechanism and wonderful capability ot-tbe human speaking voice are springing up on every side. It cannot be long before ft will be a positive reproach for a woman of education at-ieast to speak in shrill, nasal or, unplaced tones. . 1 ' , -Filling: for Cocoannt Tarts.
