Pointed Paragraph@ Practically, Patios Busy Doings to Obtain an Intelligent Idea of Foreign Facts. The Chinese plague is travelling tow- ard the coast, Baron Beyans, the Belgian Minister to France, is dead. Cholera is spreading at an alarming rate in St. Petersburg. A flim has gathered on Mr. Gladstone's eye, and another operation will be neces- sary, Charles H, M. Leconte de Liste, the poet and member of the French Academy, is .dead; Tho cholera is dwindling at Cracow, but is =the increase among the Vistula raftsmen. Storms and Foods in Western India have caused much damage to crops. Many lives have been lost. Rubenstein, the pianist, is negotiating' with Manager Abbey for a tour of the United States in 1895. At Honan, China, recently two Ameri- can lady missionaries were attacked by a mob and nearly killed. The proposed international exhibition in London has fizzled out. the managing syndidate receiving no support, The infant son of the Duke of York has been christened Edward Albert George Andrew Patrick David Christian. Harr Dowe's " bullet-proof " ouirasse has been pierced by the German Govern- ment. Mr. Dowe was out of it at the time. Mr.. Lawrence Vankoughnet, late Deputy Superintendent -General of Indian Affairs for Canada, died from heart fail- ure Wednesday= in Ireland. The British consul and his wife at Seoul, the capital of Corea, have been at- tacked and abused, and British blue- jackets have been landed to protect the consulate. The disputes which have threatened to break up the Irish Land Committee have been satisfactorily settled, and Mr. Morley has consented to retain his position as chairman. The Court of Admiralty has awarded the steamer Bremen £2,050 salvage for having brought into port the disabled steamer Stockholm off St. John, Nfld., in the early part of June last. The elections in Sydney, N.S.W., have resulted in the defeat of the Dibbs Gov- ernment and the return of fifty-eight free trade, thirty-nine protection and twenty-eight labor members. The cholera epidemic is rapidly spread- ing in Russia. There are 1,000 patients, mostly factory hands and boatmen, in the hospitals in St. Petersburg. The new cases average 200 daily, and the deaths 100. Ernest Hassberger, a Dundee jute mer- chant, has been arrested for forging bills for £S0,000 on Scotch banks and £20,000 on continentalbanks. Among bills of the larger elasses there are said to be many on the Deutsche Bank. Sir John E. Gorst, who intends to make a tour of the United States for the purpose of enquiring into the social con- ditions of the various large cities, saildd for New York on Wednesday from Lon- don on the White Star steamer Majestic. .a 'erribl.e hailstorm devastated the dis- trict between Bowie* and Poitrowkaja, Russia, on the Kursk & Charkoff Railway. Crops were destroyed. many dwellings of peasants were struck by lightning and burned. and eight persons were killed and many injured. The final interment of the remains of the late President Carnot took place Thursday at the Panthou, where they have been resting tempoxarily .in a vault. The remains of the murdered President were placed beside those of his grand- father, Lazare Carnet, known as the "Or- ganizer of Victory." Communication with Pekin which was interrupted by the floods, has been re- stored. The report that war had been declared between China and Japan was. premature, although the outlook is most threatening. The reports that France and Russia will support Japan against China are absolutely groundless. Lord Rosebery's losses through the two successive defeats of his Derby -winning horse, Lades, are reported to aggregate something like £80,000, Sir Wm. Har- court in closing his speech on the finan- cial ,clattie of the budget bill Saturday made a grim and decidedly unfriendly allusion to this fact by inuendo in re- sponse to Mr. Walter Long. It is now certain that 140 persons wont down with the Italian steamer Columbia, which collided with the Russian steamer Vladimir in the Black Sea afew days ago, All the evidence badly inculpates the Russian seamen, who abandoned the Columbia and her crew and passengers to their fate, although the vessel floated ,. an hour and a quarter after the collision. A cyclone in Bavaria devastated a tract of land fifteen miles long by two miles wide. The loss amounts to two million marks. Most of this is uninsur- ed. The sufferers are poor and the lo- cality is unable to refund the lossr s. A few fatalities occurred and a hundred persons wore injured. Large forest trees were levelled. In some instances trees were earri:ed 500 metres. Numbers of people were whirled long distances rv:'. A terrible accident, resulting in the death of seven men, occurred at Ports- mouth, Eng., Thursday. A Trinity house boat, having a crew of seven train- ed wreckers on board, was engaged ie blowing up the wreck of the yacht A.zatia. in the Solent, as the wreck was dangerous to navigation. In some man- ner, which will never bo known, a dy- namite cartridge exploded, killed the seven men and shattered the boat. Dr. Andrew Smith, of Toronto, has had . several interviews with Mr. Gardner, President of the Board of Agriculture, concerning the restrictions imposed on trade in Canadian cattle. His opinion is that the Government will maintain those restrictions for the rest of the year at least, While not asserting that con- tagious pie -um -pneumonia exists among' Canadian, cattle, the Government con- tends that suepicious eases enough to justify the restrictions have been found. The oominittee composed of bimetalism members of the House of Commons have arranged to send representatives into every constituency in Great Britain to impress upon the electors the advisabil- ity of nominating candidates for Parlia- ment upon a platform of bimetalism, The leaders of the Irish party caletilate that twenty-nine •of the Irish seats will be contested at the next election, induct- ing seven seats now ooeupied by Union - lets. If the evicted tenants' bill passes the House of Lords the larger part of the Paris fund will be released to assist the party* in the next.election; otherwise the party purse will be subieeted to a heavy strait. Have the Masons expelled Col. W C. P. Breckinridge is a question asked by many persons in Cincinnati just now. An eminent Mason showed a responsible gentleman a newly printed list of mem- bers of Lexington Lodge, No. 1, issued since a recent meeting, remarking as he did so : "Masons are not permitted to divulge the secrets of the lodge room, and I can't say whether Col. Breekin- ridge was expelled from our lodge 01' not. But here is a complete list of the present members and you can see for yourself who are members." Au examination of the printed roll showed Col. Breclein- ridge's nanm to be missing A despat.,u Irene Massaweh, Egypt, says a fierce battle has taken place be- tween a force of native and Italian soldiers, commanded by the. Governor- Gengral and a large force of dervishes Which bad sought refuge ab Kassala. The Italian troops were victorious and Kassala was captured. The following particulars of the engagement have reach- ed here : A large body of dervishes re- cently raided Careabat, an Italian vil- lage. The dervishes killed many of the inhabitants and captured and sent into the interior as slaves all those who were not massaored. After leaving Carcabat the dervishes marched towards Agordat, with the intention of capturing that place. News of the raid reached the Gov- ernor-General, who was at Karen, on the Barra River, an Italian post situated somewhat less than half way between this place and Kassala. A CURIOUS WOMAN. Row She Catechised a•Clork in a Dry Goods Store. A curious looking woman went into one of the biggests dry goods stores in Toronto and looked around curiously. Sho was just as curious, too, as she look- ed. "Do you live in town?" said she to the young lady clerk. ""Yes," was the reply. " Who owns this store ?" " That gentleman," said the clerk, pointing to the proprietor. "Is he good to you ?" " Woii, not any more than he is to the rest of us," said the clerk, blushing. " You married ?" said the woman. "No," No," said the clerk. "No thought of it, mebbe?" " Well, yes, I have thought of it." • "Got a gentleman, I hope," said the curious woman, as she handled and in- spected the goods she was buying. "How old be you, might I ask, if it ain't an impertinence? 1¢ don't know if it's any omy business," she added, apologetically, "but I'm awfully interest- ed in mos' folks. I think it's our duty to get as well acquainted as we can in this world. By the way," she continued, "I'm cur'us to know where you get your dresses made. I want to have a new dress and I'm bound to hey this ono in style, How much did itcost yo ?" The young lady, if we get the story aright, was by this time in a regular state of mind, and she answered as best she could. The answers were evidently satisfac- tory, but there is a limit to the patience of even a dry goods clerk, for when the woman said to her : " Is that your en- gagement ring ?" the little lady behind the counter flashed out in proper resent- ment, "None of your business, madam." " Sho," saidthe curious woman, with- out any other apparent resentment. "You needn't be so tetchy. Hope I hain't seemed meddlin', I didn't mean to be." • And then they both smiled and they parted good friends, for this is a funny world, and the curious woman doesn't know yetthat she is impertinent. Music. There is music in all things if men had ears. Music is the medicine of the breaking heart. Let ire have music dying and I seek no more delight. The soul of art best loved when love is by. Music washes away from the soul the dust of every -day life. Music is the child of prayer, the com- panion of religion. Sweetest melodies are those that are by distance made more sweet, Music 5..s the only sensual gratification which mankind may indulge in to excess without injury to their moral or religions feelings. The man who hath no music in his soul, but is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, is ;fit for treason, strata- gems and spoils. Tho meaning of song zoos deep. Who is there that, in logical words, can express the effect music has on us ? A kind of inarticulate, u.nfathomablespeeeh, which leads ue to the edge of the infinite, and lets us for moments gaze into that. Music is the mediator between the spiritual and the sensual life. Although the spirit be net master of that which it creates through music, yet it is blessed in thin creation, which, like every crea- tion of art, is mightier than the artist.. Under the influence of music we are all deluded in some way. We imagine that the performers .must dwell in the regions to which they left their hearers. We are reluctant toadmitthat a man may 'hi ow the most soul -animating strains fr' m his trumpet and yet be a coward ; or melt an audience to tears with his violin, and yet be a heartless profligate. It Was the Feeling. A colored man who was evidently in poor eirenmsttt:N'4 callocl ae a Gratiot avenue hardware store the other day and asked for a door loci:, and while he was looking at a line of them the merchant said : "You can't be afraid of burglars?"

But the modern belle who smiles her tyranny from behind the feathered breeze -maker little dreams of its historic significanee or ancestry. Boswell, Steele and Pope have all written abort it, Gay attributes its invention to Venus and calls it . A graceful toy, whose waving play With gentle gales relieve the•sultr y da,r . Tho folded fan is the Japanese emblem of power. It is plaoed in the hand of the god of happiness. It is carried by ;Japan- ese gentlemen on the street, who salute each other with it as with a sword. The open fan is often used as a tray, and a fan of peculiar shape is presented to a prison- er as a notice of sentence of death. Reaching out to take it he gives the signal for his own execution. The folded fan is said to have been imported to China from Japan in the tenth century. At the be- ginning of the present era a Chinese. metalist beat plates of gold " as thin as locust wings " and applied them to screen fans. Excavations at Nineveh, Persepolis and elsewhere hays brought to light repre- sentations of Assyrian fans. In the time of Sennacherib long -handed fans were an emblem of royalty. An Egyptian fan is now in the museum of Boulak, said to have bean the property of Aah-Hotep, and if this is true it must be thirty-five cen- turies old. A long-handledfan is repre- sented in the triumph of King Horns (1400 B.C.), and Rameses had twenty- three princes, each of whom rejoiced in the magnificent title of "Fan Bearer on the left hand side of the King." The fan was a symbol of early worship. It was used to keep in-ects away from t1: e holy altar. A favorite design in the Greek Church represented a six -winged cherub. The Aztecs in Mexico used it. Montezuma sent to Cortez gifts of feath- ered fans ornamented with a sun and. moon of polished gold. It was evith them an emblem of authority, for they gener- ally placed it in the hand of Ometeutli, the god of Paradise, and of Toter, the military disciple of Quetzalcohuati. Catherine de Medicis brought fans into use in .the French court, and her vain damsels used to have tiny mirrors inlaid in them. In 1678 the French fashion papers decreed that the fan should be of a size corresponding to the width of the ladies' dresses. This mads them so large as to become unwieldly. The fan which Charlotte Corday carried in her hand when she stabbed the tyrant Marat at his bath was mentioned in her trial and is preserved at Caen, her native town. At dancing assemblies in London, Bath and other places in 1700. gentlemen chose their partners by the' `lottery of the fan ." This might outclass the modern "apron and necktie party." The fans were shuf- fled," and each man took his choice, the owner becoming his partner. It was a fortunate man who know his lady's fan. Such a method would not be popiilar in the modern ballroom. In the London. Spectator of May, 1711, is given a des- cription of an academy where ladies could be properly trained in the use of the fan. Such an institution would be superfluous to -day. The ladies prefer to be their own teachers in the mysteries which were there taught, " of the angry flutter, the modest flutter, the timorous flutter, the confused flutter, the merry flutter and the amorous flutter." With the fan as with the umbrella, possession is nine points of the law. In America it is not an emblem of royalty. Instead, its presence indicates that the fly, the mos- quito, the gnat and the temperature are planning a -oint attack. Not Altogether Harmonious. The choir was singing a now arrange- ment of the beautiful anthem, "Consider the Lilies." The pure, sweet voice of the soprano rose clearly and distinctly in the solo : " They toi-oi-oil not, "They toil not, "They toil not. " Ny-y-y-cher do they spin," She paused and the tenor took up the strain : " Nee-ee-eo-ther do they spin. " They toi-oe-oi-oil not, " They toil not, "They toil not, "Nee-ee es-ther do they spin." The tenor ceased, and the basso, a sol- emn, red-hairedyoungman with a some- what worldly -looking eye and a voice like a fog -horn, broke in : " Nay-ay-ay-ay-ther do they spin. i" They toi-oi-oi-oil not, " They toil not, " They toil not. "Nay-ay-ay-ay-ther do they spin." Then the voices of the three were lifted up in semi -chorus : " Ny-y-y-ther "Noe-ee-eo-cher "Nay-ay-ay-ther—do they spin. " They toi-oi-oi-oil not, " They toil not, " They toil not, '" Ny-y-y-cher " Nee-ee-ee-cher " Nay-ay-ay-they—do they spin." ""Brethren.'" said the gray-haired old- fashioned.pastor when the choir had fin- ished, "we will begin the services of the morning by singing the familiar hymn : " " And am I yet alive? ' " Rather Long on Snakes. " Speaking of snakes, did you ever see one swallow a live fish?" The speaker was one of a party of gentlemen who had just finished a bottle of wine. As none of them had ever seen the performance referred to, he proceeded to describe it in graphic style : When he got through Judge S. said : "When I lived in Texas we used to de- pend. mainly on snakes for our eggs." " What, ' said an elderly gentleman, who was a• little hard of hearing, "did you oat snake's eggs ?" '"Not by a jugful," said the judge, ''but we found hens' eggs in the snakes. You see, snakes are very fond of eggs, and down there they make a business of hunting eggs. They would go from one crest to another, and, swallowing egg after egg, until they could hold no more, and when they were too full to move they were easily captured. As they swallowed the, egg whole, it would be a good while before the contents would be hurt, and if the shako was killed before the shell was digested the eggs would be all right. I once took 103 hens' eggs from one snake. As I knew the snake had stolen the eggs, I had no compunc- tion about stealing from hila." "Did you eat thorn all?" asked the elderly gentleman. " Oli, no." was the reply, "I only ate two or three dozen and traded the rest off for tobacco," "Were the eggs in a pile when you cut the snake open ?" asked the elderly gentleman as if in seareh of truth. "'Nee''. replied the judge, they were' lying in a row lengthways in the snake's stomach." " But`" suggested the elderly gentle - ream, "one hundred and ninety-three eggs lying in a row lengthways would Make a pretty long :line." " Well," replied the judge, "this was rather a long snake." • I'" aeetious. " I was with Debs—" the stranger said. Cried John Most: "Say no more ; But stay and drink a schooner Within my Bumble door," " As I remarked—•" began the tranm; "Nay, rest thee 1" enied John Most, " Slave, bring the worthy Anarchist Much beer and eggs on toast !" " It was a bitter straggle—" " Aye truly 1" quotlt John Most, But era thee tell thy story, Eat drink I I'll be thy host." The stranger ate voraciously, Arid quaffed deep mugs of beer, While dohii Mose waited patiently - The thrilling tale to bear. • " You were with Debs .1"he asked at last. The stranger cried : "Sure, Mike I took the Keeley cure with Debs Two years before the strike !" The baseball umpire should be a good judge of diamonds.

Mrs. Crimsonbeak—"On e -h alf the world doesn't know how the other half lives." Mr. Crimscnbeak-"But, it isn't thefem- inine half that is ignorant." "Don't you think Madeline is putting on airs at the piano?" "I hadn't noticed it. Everything she has played thus far is on the programme." She's angled for full many men And not one had landed', It came to be considered. then She was hopelessly left-handed. " Miss Oldgirl is in a raga at Bluntley for speaking of her as a regularchromo." "Don't blame her. Everybody in town knows well enough she is hand -painted." Mrs. Grimes—"Henry, Willie is teas- ing me every day for a sweater. I wish you'd get him one." Mr.. Grimes—"A. sweater? What's the matter with the buck -saw?" " Few people," said the wife, as she proceeded to investigate her husband's pockets, after he had gone to sleep, "few people are aware of what a wife has to go through." l" Minnie, you an' Tessie musn't talk about slappin' each other's faces," said the eldest of the little girls chidingly, "The neighbors'11 think this is a grand- opry company." Mr. Maxim—the first twenty-five years is the longest half of anyone's life, no matter how long they live. Mrs. Maxim —Yes it took Miss Wouldwed nine years to live the last five of that period. Mrs. Popleigh-"Henry, are you crazy? Take that mask off. You are frighten- ing the baby so bad he'll not go near you." Mr. Popleigh (complacently)— "That's why I put it on." " What do you do ?" asked the novice in finance, "when the market sends prices up to where you don't want them?" "What do I do?" echoed the operator with unlimited resources; "I grin and bear it." Little Miss Muggs (proudly)— "My Aunt Mary has a lock of George Wash- ington's heir. It's been in the family for years." Little Miss Freckles—"I didn't know any of your ancestors were barbers !"

Cobwigger—"I bought a necktie here yesterday, and the one you sent home wasn't anything like it." Haber- dasher—"The one we sunt, madam, was picked out by your husband a month ago, in case you ever bought one for him." Peach Fever. " Peach fever" is an occupational dis- ease not infrequently seen among the employes in the fruit packing and can- ning establishments of Maryland and Delaware and inay be divided into two variotiee : First, the psychotic variety, marked by mental exaltation, ideas of grandeur, seen in persons having a lively imaginative faculty.; second, the true peach fever, caused by contact with the fruit in the course of its being picked and packed for market. This variety is de- fined as a "morbid condition of the rs spiratory and eutaueous surfaces, with some consequent systemic disturbances, due to irritation from the pubescence of the common peach -the Ainygdalus per- sica." The Schneiderian membrane first becomes irritated and tumefied, and yields a large flow of serum and mucus. The frontal sinuses, the conjunctivae, and the larger bronchi may take on, by extension, the same kind of disturbance; cough and asthma may be excited in sus- ceptible subjects, On the skin, the chief display of this arnygdaliee inflammation will be found about the wrists, forearms, noek and forehead. It commonly begins and ends in a macular or papular erup- tion, but it may go an to a true dermatitis and to pustulation. The febrile rise inay bo as high as two degrees, which may be taken to indicate the amount of systemic discomfort.
