The Seneca Falls base ball nine are knocking the spots off of all other clubs that cross bats with them. They sent a laoted Rochester club home a few days ago without a score. It is reported that a company will be formed to work the salt find at Dundee. It is said to be a fine grade of rock salt, and the vein is over seventy feet thick, enough to salt the earth. \ Says a Lowville correspondent: Sev- - eral deer have made their appearance in towns bordering on the Adirondacks and the supposition is that they are be- ing frightened out of the wilderness by the cars on the Adirondack & St. Law- rence Railroad. Boys who are sent to the State In- dustrial school may be compelled to re- main there until they reach the age of twenty-one years, but in case of good f behavior and a disposition on their part to lead better lives they will probably be released before that age is attained. On taking off the roof of a house near Cambridge, which had been on fire, it was found that a quantity of straw had been carried by birds between the roof and the^ceilins:, and this had been ig- nited from a hole in the chimney. Al- together the birds has taken up three or four sacks of rubbish. Electricity has been recently applied to establish the.state of a horse's foot. Usage is to pat one pole of a battery in contact with the inside of the hoof, the other pole in contact with the iron shoe. If the hoof has been pierced with a nail to the quick the horse will feel the electrfc current and become irri- tated; in the other case, the current cannot pass through the foot. The servant girl problem will prob- ably be solved in this village during the coming summer, for a plan is beine - 3 arranged by which a lot of our best families are to import fifteen or twenty competent colored gi-ls from Virginia. Good, competent girls can thus be ob : tained. and that ever recurring dilemma will be settled for once.—Dansville Breeze. "A dispatch from Durango, Mexico, says: The recent reports from the City of Mexico stating that the drouth in the northern part of the republic had been broken by bountiful rains are in- correct, so far as the states of Durango and Coahuila are concerned. With the exception of one light shower about two months ago, there has been abso- lutely no rain here' for the past four and a half years. Starting off to a summer resort, or for a week's fishing, or upon a tramp with a gun. or to visit your relations in the counfry, there is one companion that .you will not regret taking with you—a copy of the July "Cosmopoli- tan." It contains a-wide range of sub-, jects for summer reading—twenty-two articles, mostly illustrated. Stop at your newsdealers and carry away a copy of this splendidly illustrated monthly. W. G. Potter of the Geneva granite and marble works, is now engaged in lettering two monuments, whose com- bined weight is 15 tons. They are to go to Lodi. He also has three fine monuments in his yard ready to be shipped to Canandaigua. These are only samples of the orders that Mr. Potter is constantly receiving. The strike does not as yet effect his busi- ness in the least and all orders will be promptly attended to. Thursday noon a young appearing gentleman by the name of J. E. Stone walked through this city pn his way from San Francisco to New York city. He left San Francisco Feb. 22 to walk to New York city. He was to accom- plish this by July 4, and if successful was to receive $2000. He has walked the entire distance on the railroad track. When here he was three days ahead of time, and if no unforeseen accident hap- pens trill win his wages, easily.—Horn- ellsville Herald.

Z A POEM. READ AT THE BARDEN-WITTER REUNION BY MISS ADDIE BARJDEN. A century has passed and we gather here to-day Our tribute of respect to the pioneers to pay, From New England they came, were hardy sons of toil; They felled the mighty forest and tilled the virgin soil, Rude were the tools with the conflict to wage, But to their children left a golden heritage. The peace was their's that industry imparts ; Rude were their homes, but sheltered honest hearts. Of stern independence we can point with pride. None of the name as paupers in the poorhouse ever died ; And looking back o'er a century of time, The name is not recorded in the annals of crime. In the higher paths of literature, or humbler walk of life. They bore themselves right nobly, were victors in the strife. That success crowned their efforts we've but to look around; See signs of wealth and comfort everywhere abouud They brought with them the Sabbath and the common district school. And deep within their hearts they hated kingly rule, Decendants of the Pilerims, kings learned to their cost. In trifling with their rights a continent was lost. As yonder sun in glory daily journeys thro' the hours, Looks not down on a nation superior to ours. In wealth and population foremost among them stand As a liberty loving nation we're surely in the van. In a book I once read, a story quaintly told Of two men building houses in times that are old One careless and unwise ouilded his upon the sand, And when the wind and rain came Of course it could not stand. The other, wiser, built upon a solid rock, And when the fury came, it stood the hardest shock. Just so our fathers builded our government so strong; 'Twill stand the hardest tempests, however fierce and long, For beneath the deep foundations, a solid rock doth stand. That rock I scarcely need to add is the heaven born rights of man. All honor to our pioneers who proved good mm and true, And in our mighty fabric, builded better than they knew, As the years go moving by. and you yearly con- gregate, Precious keep their memory, their virtues imi tate. A Plucky Engineer. A daring deed was performed on the Savannah, Americtis & Montgomery road the other day by Engineer Brad- ford. His engine was standing four miles from Huntsboro when he discov- ered smone coming from a large pile of light wood in the tender. The tender was full of rich pine, and the engineer with his fireman began throwing it out as fast as possible. The blaze grlw. hotter and there was not enough water to quench it nearer than Huntsboro. Without a moment's delay Bradford saw that the engine would bd burned if Huntsbore was not reached, and leap- ing aboard he cut loose from.the cars and started on the run. The pi ire was b u r n i n g fiercely and before the engine was given a good start the heat was almost unbearable. Bradford pulled open the throttle and put his engine at its best speed. She fairly flew along. The resinous light wood roared and crackled. As the speed increased so did the fire and heat. She whizzed along a mile a minute and streaming along behind was a leaping, seething mass of flame, forty feet in length with a dense volume of rolling smoke, aud the flying engine made an impressive sight. The heat in the cab was so great that Bradford had to wrap his cap around the throttle to hold it. He pulled up to the water tank at Hunt- boro and in a few minutes had the fire extinguished, with but slight dam- age to the engine. Bradford was badly burned on the side but he stuek to h:s post. A stabbing affair occurred in Newark on the night of the firemen's parade, or rather in the morning following at about 2 o'clock. VanWeaver was con- ducting John Brown home at that time. In his efforts to get him along, he call- ed out several4.imes "come on Johnny." It happened that five Italians were near by and as they are nicknamed "John- nies" they thought these two Ameri- cans were scoffing them, and so follow- ed on. The two parties came in contact near Hockenberger's, and a scuffle en- sued. Then crossing to the West Shore tracks one of the Italians stabbed Weaver in the left breast. He was taken to Dr, Landon's office and the wound dressed. It was not considered dangerous, only so far "as the hot weather is unfavorable. There was some spitting of blood next morning, but the patient will probably recover. No arrests have as yet been made, but the culprit is being looked for.—Cour. Some fancy the charms of. the lily-white maid, Of etherial form and languishing eye, Who faints in the sunshine and droops in the shade, Ana is always "just ready to die.' N But give me the girl of the sunshiny- face, The blood in whose veins courses healthy aud free, With, the -vigor.of .youth in her movements of grace; Oh, that is the maiden for me! She is the girl to "tie to" for life. The sickly, complaining woman may be an object of love : and pity, but she ceases to be a "thing of beauty" worn down by female weakness and disorders, subject to hysteria and other ills. DrV Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a sure cure for these distressing complaints, and will transform the feeble, droop- ing sufferer into a healthy, happy* blooming woman. Guaranteed to give satisfaction in every case, or money paid for it refunded. Snndiay nVtn'e World's Fair. It has been explained by Director- General Davis and other World's Fair officials, who are inclined to favor-Sun- day opening, that it is: not the intention or desire that the Fair shall be open on Sundays in the " wide" way in which it will be on week days. On the con- trary, they would have the machinery stopped, all manufacturing processes at a standstill, and every description of work by employees reduced to a minium. Religious services and choral and other musical entertaiuments could be held iu the numerous halls and auditoriums which the buildings will contain. The people could stroll through the park, viewing its resplendent beauties of na- ture and wonderful achievements of man's handiwork; could enter the buildings to enjoy the work of painter and sculptor, and to learn and profit from'exhibits of innumerable descrip tion. Very few employees^comparative ly, would be required to remain on duly on Sunday and those chiofly for watch men and guards. These would not be required io work seven days in the week. To care for the thousands of visitors all the Fair on Sunday would not require more persons to work on that day than would be necessary were those same thousands to go elsewhere. Had it been understood from the be- ginning that the Sunday opening of the Fair would be of the kind indicated orderly and educational instead of noisy and demoralizing—it is believed that the petitions and protests against a Sunday Fair would have been far less numerous. The Bank of England's doors are now so finely balanced that the clerk, by pressing a knob under his desk, can close the outer doors instantly, and they cannot be opened again except by special process. This is done to prevent the daring and ingenious unemployed of the great metropolis from robbing the famous institution. The bullion de- partment of this and other great Eng- lish banking establishments are .nightly submerged in several feet of water by the action of the machinery. In some of the London banks the bullion de- partments are connected with the man- ager's sleeping rooms, and an entrance cannot be effected without setting off an alarm near the person's head. If a dishonest official during the day or night should take even as much as one from a pile of 1,000 sovereigns the whole pile would u.stantly sink and a pool of water take its place, besides letting every person in the establish ment know of the theft. If the president approves a joint reso- lution passed by congress authorizing him to proclaim a general holiday for the 2lst of October next to commemor- ate the discovery of America by Col- umbus, this state will thus have had the following legal holidays: The 52 Sundays of the year; January 1, New Year's day; February 22, Washing- ton's birthday; May 30, Memorial day; July 4, Independence day; September, first Monday, Labor day; October 21, Columbus day; November, last Thurs- day, Thanksgiving day; November 8, General Election day; December 25, Christmas day; and the last half of every Saturday. O r a total of 61 full days and 52 half days out of the 365. Holidays are gsttiug numerous, but most of them are good things.—Rome Sentinel. ' . Thos. Montgomery, a rich farmer living near Ford City. Pa., has been " Aim-flamed ,; out of $6,500 by two men who agreed to sell him a farm for $6,500. The proposition was made that in order to bind both parties the pur- cl«aser should deposit $6,500 in a tin box and the two men put in $1,000 to show good faith. The box was locked and given to Montgomery, the men keep- ing the key. While on his way home Montgomery, became suspicious and. opened lliebox. Two small sticks occu- pied the space where the money was supposed to have been placed. War- rants were sworn out and officers plac- ed on the track. Mr. Montgomery is unable to explaiu how the box was ex- changed for the other.and acknowledges that he lost $6,500. A New York minister struck the heart of the social evil when he referred to the pittance paid to shop girls for their weekly earnings. He related an instance that had come under his per- sonal knowledge of a girl so employed who had gone to the superintendent of a large dry goods store where she work- ed, with the plea, that she really could not live upon her weekly wages and was met with the reply : " Well have you no gentlemen friends to help you out ? We can't give you any more mon- ey than we do nowp' "This," said Dr. Harshaw forcibly, " was done outside of hell,toya man employed by one of the largest firms in the city." The World recently gave a column or more of the life of Gen'l Daniel E. Sickles and his family. His shooting of Philip Barton Key in 1859, for inti- macy with his wife is not forgotten. He separated from his wife, but eventu- ally they came together again. One daughter was born them, When 15 years old she accompanied her father to Madrid, Spam, where he was the Amer- can minister. She had a love scrap there which the stern old General broke un. She left him'and returned to New York. A little later she began a life of dissipation which ended in net- death on May 23d. From the time she left Spain she had never seen or spoken to her father. The hotel keepers of Savannah are highly indignant at what - they call an unjust discrimination in the matter of granting licenses by the excise -board.

CONRAD, Business Manager Artificial Eg-gs. James Storrey of Kansas City, Mo., says he will make it possible to manu- facture eggs. Before long he will prob- ably start a factory at Philadelphia and manufacture eggs —shell, white, yolk and all—by the car load, at three cents a dozen. All the necessary machinery, which is not worth^more thaa $500 at the outside, is m readiness to begin this overwhelming competition with the American hen. If as much success at- tends the new venture as is anticipated by Mr. Storrey, the contest between the machine and the hen for supremacy in the egg producing business will be short, with the victory to the credit of the machine. Mr. Storrey's process is very simple, yet he is prepared to manufacture an artificial egg that a connoisseur will fa*ud / it diilicult to distinguish,, either in appearance or taste, from the prime product of a Plymouth Rock or Leg- horn. Lime, water, milk, blood, tal- low, peas and one or two other vege tables are the ingredients of his com- pound, The shell and the yolk will not be difficult to manufacture. To make a good imitation of the white of the egg is the part that has required the most ingenuity to conquer, but Mr. Storrey has succeeded in solving the problem successfully. The white of the egg is about one- eigth albumen and is a difficult sub- stance to produce chemically, A beef blood will be utilized in very large quantities in the big egg mill. 'A few special cars will be fitted up with tanks to ship the blood from the Chicago slaughter houses, provided a sufficient quantity of the blood cannot be abtain- ed in Philadelphia. o The sheli will be imitated by a sim- ple solution of lime, water and glue. The machinery that is required is need- ed mainly in putting the egg together. Every yolk will be first run into another mould, where the right quan tity of the white is placed previously. This latter substance, being a gelatine- like matter, will eucase the yolk very readily. Tests have been made which sho,w that the artificial egg can be preserved for a month under proper conditions and. still taste as fresh as one just laid by an ordinary hen. Among other decoratious for airy summer millinery are gauze aud velvet butterflies, carefully copied from na- ture, representing the most gorgeously colored specimens, as well as the com- mon yellow ones. There are also dragon flies, made of some transparent substance that resembles mother of pearl. The brilliant colors of many kinds of insects are^ closely imitated, and a t a glance along the line of speci- mens one might easily imagine that some naturalist's collection w^s pn view, so exact are the representations. These insects, in color and also in mock jewel-work and jet^and $]$&^map s j& the hair, and larger ones of a mapiSI- nous nature are occasionally set on the left shoulder of a low cut bodice. An Addison clergyman, annoyed by tobacco chewing thus spoke to his. con- gregation : ' !Take your cud: of. tdbacco out of your mouth on ,ente?Hig the house of God, and gently lay it on the outer edge of the side walk or fence.
