A man named Jackson, fiving near Atlanta, received from ‘an African explorer,” two or three years ago some cotton eed of a kind which the ex- plorer said, grew to the height of twen- ty-five feet, an average stalk bearing sixty-five bolls of cotton as fine and long as that of the Sca Islands. Jackson planted the seeds and they did all’that had been promised. He repeated the operation and now has eighteen bushels of seed with which to begin cultivation next season ona large scale. Mean- while the planters of Southern Georgia heard of his experiment, and it the At- lanta correspondent otf the Baltimore Anmcrican is to bg believed, they have ‘ust offered Jackson $10,000 if he will give them all the seea in his possession and let them destroy it. is alleged, increased over production and still lower prices if the n3w variety comes into general cultivation.—New York Limes, They fear, it Many are looking forward to the election bulletins tonight.

Sunday night about 9 o’clock some one broke into the store of J. L. Star— key & Bao. by prizing open the shutter to one ot the rear windows and cutting out part of the sash. As Mr. Starkey was returning from church with a friend he concluded to go in the store and get some cigars, and as they went in the front door the thief rushed out of the rear window. It seems that this par- ticular thief was after firearms, as an investigation disclosed that he taken about a dozen pistols and a lot of cartridges. The thief might have taken other goods also but for the unexpected ar- rival of Mr. Starkey which routed him.

Art In Metal Work as Applied Now te Builders’ Hardware. Twenty-five dollars for the knob and plate of a front door may seem to bea bit of extravagance, but in these days of high art in furnishing a good deal more than thafican be spent for hand chased and gold plat- ed bronze knobs from special de- signs. ‘There are hundreds of pat- terns of high priced door fittings, and it is very easy to select knobs, hinges, lifts, escutcheons gnd other fittings of the doors and windows of a'single story to cost from $350 to $500. Some of the patterns are so eostly that dealers do not pretend to ETIQUETTE IN 1628. tn s Book Written Then Are Things Which Sound Curious Now. What is probably one of the oldest books on deportment in existence was discovered in Paris the other day, says the New York World. It was published in that city in 1628 for the College of the Jesuits of La Fleche and is entitled ‘‘Good Man- ners In Converse Among Men.’”’ The text is in French, with a Latin trans- lation. Deportment in public is first touched upon. “In yawning do not groan,” this ancient guide to polite- ness says, ‘‘and do not gape even when speaking. In blowing thy nose do it as one would sound a trumpet and afterward regard not fixedly thy. handkerchief. Avoid wiping thy nose as the children do—with thy fingers or upon the sleeve. When listening to some one speaking da | not wiggle about, but keep thyself, in thy skin the while.”’ It must have been hard to obey this latter injunction, judging from what is said a little farther along, “Kill not fleas or the like in the presence of others, but excuse thy- self and remove whatever torments thee.”’ Three hundred years ago gentle men did not wear such sad colored costumes as they do today, and one cannot help feeling that a little pride and swagger were excusable in a dandy of those days when he donned for the first time a particularly fetching costume of high colored silken doublet and hose. Yet this ‘‘ouide’’ remarks severely: ‘‘If thou art well bedizened, if thy hose be tightly drawn and thy habit be well ordered, parade not thyself, but carry thyself with becoming mod- esty. Demean not thyself arrogant- ly, neither go mincingly about. Let not thy hands hang limply to the ground and tuck not up thy hose at every turn.”’ “Do not embellish thyself with keep thearticles in stook, and manu- factnrers require time for filling some orders for articles sold by sam- ples or photographic reproductions of patterns, If thearticles are to be made from the special designs of an architect for a particular purpose, the cost can easily extend to thou- sands of dollars. The development of art in metal work, as applied to the regular trade of builders’ hardware, has been gradual. Some of the old time work- ers in iron and brass produced pa- tiently and laboriously large and elaborately designed hinges, knock- ers, locks and latches that were ar- tistic and are valued today by collect- ors of antiques. The present work- ers can cast and finish in a few hours many elaborately designed knobs, plates and hinges, and artists are employed to design dainty, grace- ful and appropriate patterns or to copy and apply the best and most practicable designs that art has pro- duced so that the ornamentation of a knoband plate may be artistic and refined. The demand for knobs and plates ‘has run through plain finished brass and wrought iron to brass and bronze, with varied finishing. Ox- idized copper finish seems to be ~ preferred now for articles of moder- ate cost, but silver plated brass and bronze, gold plated bronze and bronze with oxidized silver finish or verd antique finish are used in the most costly houses. The demand for cast iron, wrought iron and steel, with dull black finish, has increased to some extent, but they are the only methods that can be used appropri- ately in. some instances. Designs that are in harmony with the colo- nial style of architecture have been produced, and they are severely _ plain when alongside some of the designs from the French school. Polishing and hand chasing make the cost of hardware mount up, but - the niceties of casting have been de- veloped so much in recent years that some plates and other articles need only to be cleaned with sand and touched in spots with files and _ gmery paper. The process used in Mnishing some of the metal is, through the fumes of acids, danger- ous forthe. workmen, but in. the foundries and machine shops the ini ‘smiths and machinists may work for ae . Inone " Bay er smiths who are robust and skillful at 60 years of age, and in then __ @hine shops adjoining are many ol ‘workmen, some of whom have made such valuable improvements on ma: ~~ ehines for making locks that the at- y years without loss of health. na mere to get portoer by ep | Friend— ; flowers upon thy ear’’ is another in- | junction which sounds curiously to- day, but the advice, ‘‘When speak. ing, raise not thy voice asif thou wert crying anedict,’’ is justas per- tinent now as when the budding young gentlemen of La France had it drummed into them. Table manners in those davs must nave been rather more primitive even than those of some of the 50 cent table d’hotes in this city, for the book says: ‘‘Being seated at the table, scratch not thyself, and if thou must cough or spit or wipe thy nose.do it dexterously and without a groat noise. “Stuff not thy mouth with food when eating, and drink not too much of the wine if thou art not master o° the house. pleasure either at the meats or wins. “In taking salt have a care thet thy knife be notgreasy. When it is necessary to clean that or the fork, do it neatly with the napkin or a lit- tlo bread, but never with tho entire loaf. Smell not of the meats, and, if hy chance thou dost, put them not back afterward before another. “It is a very indecent thing to wipe the sweat from thy face with thy napkin, or with the same to blow thy nose or clean the plate or platter. ”’ Governors’ .Salaries. There isa great difference in the compensation of the governors. New York pays the most—$10,000 a year and house rent free. New Jer- gey and Pennsylvania pay their gov- ernors $10,000 a year, but do not furnish mansions for them. Ohio and Massachusetts pay $8,000 a year. ‘Tllinois and California pay $6,000 a year. Colorado, Indiana, Kentucky, Minnesota, Missouri, Virginia and Wisconsin pay $5,000. Maryland pays $4,500. Eight states pay $4, 000 a year. The remaining 21 states pay miserably small salaries to their ex- écutives. In Vermont and Oregon the governors receive only $1,500 a year—hardly enough to pay a ca- pable private secretary. In Michigan the salary of the governor remained for many years at $1,000. This re- }stricted the office to rich men, for no poor man who was competent could afford to take it. The salary in that state now is $4,000.—Kx- change. 7 A Lamentable Failure, ' McLester (sadly)—The new figure ‘T invented for the cotillon failed last night. . '.

The squiro’s shoes were of a very plain and solid make, little better than those provided for his laborers, and such was his. economy that he bought leather and had them re- soled by a cob’sler living at the chateau. He was much more partic- ular about his headgear. Felt hats were brought by sea from Rouen to Cherbourg. Gonberville paid 25 francs for his own, while those for his servants were not more thana third of that price. His rich velvet caps cost nearly 40 francs. The squire had a peculiar weak- ness for perfumes, which he distill- ed on the spot, such as rosewater, Damascus water, ‘“‘eau a la mode,”’ etc., and he did not think it beneath | his dignity to go and gather the pinks at a neighboring monastery. He was also very fastidious with re- gard to his gloves and would pay 12 francs-a pair for them. ; A word may be added as to the arrangements for the table at the chateau. The flour was ground and the bread made at home, although when there was not time to do soa loaf of 12 pounds would be bought from the baker for 3 francs. He paid a higher price when he expect- ed friends, and especially the cure of Cherbourg, who was somewhat of anepicure. There is little said about pastry except the ‘‘gateau des rois,’’ so essential to the festivities of Twelfth Night or Epiphany. The desserts consisted of cheese, honey, fresh and dried fruits, oranges and grenades from the south, with 4 great variety of wines. Generally the preference was given to solid food. Sometimes oxen and sheep were slaughtersd at home; some. times choice morsels were bought at the town, and wonderfully cheap they were. On one occasion the hali of a calf and a pound of candles are purchased for 5 francs. Kids wero much in request for special enter- tainments. Pork was then, as now, a favorite article of diet among the peasants. Ono day, when going tc the chase, he rose at 4 0’clock anc breakfasted on pork and_ herrings himself. The fact speaks well for his digestive powers—unless he had reason to repent of the indulgence. Special luxuries were occasionally provided at his table, as when the servant of a neighbor brought him an Indian cock, and then he was sc nleased that he gave the messenger a pourboire of 4 francs. This little circumstance is not without interest, as showing that the turkey was not then unknown in France, and throw- ing doubt on the common tradition that this bird was firsé introduced there by the Jesuits and served at tne royal table of Charles IX, 1571. Fish appears often on tho squire’s board, as his chateau was near the soa, and the rivers also furnished a good supply.—Gentleman’s Maga. zine. Slack Mindedness. A Bern newspaper contained the following prospectus of a hotel: “in the Bernese Oberland, is the favorite place of resort for those whoare fond of solitude. Persons in search of solitude are, in fact, con- stantly flocking there from the four quarters of the globe.’’ I gather from my informant that this is either a copy or 4 translation of the prospectus. But I forbear to give the name of the favorite retreat, partly because I have not myself seen the advertisement and partly for fear that many of your readers might be tempted to swell the crowd in that haunt of populous solitude. In my Harrow days it was report- ed that the very clever and kind hearted but irascible and sometimes inconsequent second master (long since dead) once called out to the boys in his form, ‘‘If one boy prompts another, the boy who prompts shall have:ten times as many lines to write out as the boy who is prompt- ed, and the boy who is prompted just the same. *’—London Spectator.

As we caine abreast of a tiny cove or cleft in the cliffs the harpooner | suddenly stiffened with excitement, and he muttered ‘‘Blow-ow-o7w"’ in an undertone. There in that little docklike cleft lay a monster just awash, a tiny spiral of vapor at her side showing her to be accompanied | W bya calf. Down came the mast and sails as if by magic, and in less than one minute we were paddling straight in for the cove. The water was as smuoth as a mirror, and the silence profound. A very few strokes and the order was whispered, “Stand up!’’ to the harpooner. Louis rose, poising his iron, and almost imme- diately darted. The keen weapon was buried up to the socket in the broad, glistening side. ‘‘Stern all!” was shouted, and backward we6 swiftly glided, but there was no need for retreat. Never a move did she make, save convulsively te clutch the calf to her side with one of her great winglike flippers. We carefully approached again, the harpooner and officer having changed places, and, incredible as it | may seem, almost wedged the boat in between the whale and the rocks. No sheep could have more quietly submitted to slaughter than did this mighty monster, whose roll to one side would have crushed our boat to flinders, and whose death struggle. had it taken plave as usual, must, in so confined a corner, have drown ed us all. Evidentiy fearful of in- juring her calf, she quietly died and gave no sign. Czse hardened old blubber hunters as we were, we felt deeply ashamed, our deed looked so like a cold blooded murder. One merciful thrust of a lance ended the calf’s misery, and, rapidly cutting a hole through the two lips of our prize, we buckled to our heavy task of towing it to the ship. We were goon joined by the other boats, but all combined made no great prog- ress, and we had seven hours of heavy labor before we got the car. cass home, Seourirz it alongsids, we went to a hard san well earned meal and a good nis: Words. “THE GREAT MET ROPOLIS. Wew York City as the Paris of the Amerk 4 can Continent. After taking into full account the tlaims of the sensitive city of Chi. cago, it may be truthfully stated that the city of New York is the Paris of America. There are other municipalities which are doing their yest in their several ways to rival) her, but it is toward New York that ail the eyes in the country are turn- ed, and from which they take sug- gostion as a cat laps milk. The rest of us are in a measure provincial, Many of us profess not to approve of New York; but, though we cross ourselves piously, we take or read 8 New York daily paper. New Yors gives the cue alike to the secretary of the treasury and (by way of Lon. don) to the social swell. The ablesi men in the country seek New York as a market for their brains, and the wealthiest people of the country move to New York to spend the patrimony which their rail splitting fathers or grandfathers accumulat ed. Therefore it is perfectly just tc refer to the social life of New York as representative of that element of the American people which has been most blessed with brains or fortune, and as representative of our most highly evolved civilization. It ought to be our best. Themen and women who contribute to its movement and influence ought LO the pick of the country. But what do we find? We find as the ostensible leaders of New York society a set of shallow worldlings whose whole existence is: given up | to emulating one another in elabo- ‘| pate and splendid inane social frip- peries. They dine and wine and -dance and entertain from January |. to December. Their houses, wheth. er in.town or atthe fashionable wa. tering places to which they move in summer, are as sumptuous, if not more so, than those of the French nobility in its palmiest days, and their energies are devoted to the| discovery of new expensive luxuries and: fresh titillating creature oam- forts.—''The Conduct of Lite,” by by | ‘Robert Grant, in Scribner’s.

This zero has been de- fined as that point of temperature at which gas particles would give no pressure and have no volume, a con- dition which, it is said, would take place at a temperature of 274 de. grees below the freezing point of water. Unlike tie arctic explorers, however, who have a number of roads open by which to approach the pole, the chemist bas only one route by which to reach the chilly destination he seeks, and that is by the liquefaction of ali the gases. This, the textbooks state, has al. ready been accomplished, but the chemist in search of the zero tem- perature knows better. Though compressed hydrogen when expanded yields a mist, the victory over this baffling element has not been achieved, and as the experiments in this direction are difficult and costly it seems proba- ble that the explorers will reach the north pole, by balloon or otherwise, long before the chemists reach their zeroic temperature, the temperature of celestial space. One practical re- sult the chemist names as a reason of his researches after the zero temperature is that should it ever pe reached we could then complete- ly transform heat into mechanical power, whereas at present we suc- ceed in getting only about 10 per cent so converted.—-Chicage Inte. rior.
