C., was heard five miles. Of the 75,608 Free-Will Baptists more than half are in New England States. A girl has been arraigned in Cleveland, Tenn., for carrying a pistol concealed. An early and severe winter is threatened in Europe. Hard times and high prices are ahead. Over $100,000 worth of slate mantels have been ordered by a London, Eng., house from a Newburg, N. Y., firm. A memorial chapel to the Prince Imperial is to be built in Paris, about $12,000 having been subscribed for the purpose. For eight years the large rolling mill at Spuyten Duyvill has been closed. It now has an order for $400,000 worth of steel rails, and work will be resumed at once. While the late Dr. Joseph P. Thompson was pastor of the Broadway Tabernacle, that church contributed $20,000 in a single day to equip a regiment for the war. The British army contains 62,800 members of the Church of England, 20,872 Roman Catholics, 7,125 Presbyterians, and 3,985 Protestants of unclassified denominations. The original order of Gen. Robert E. Lee, announcing the death of Stonewall Jackson, has been purchased by a resident of Richmond as a present for a friend in Europe. An attempt will be made to secure it for the State of Virginia. The orators will have to drop "a nation of forty millions of inhabitants" for a new phrase. The best estimates of the census to be taken next June now are that the returns will show a population for all the States and Territories of 48,500,000. Before leaving Japan, Gen. Grant and Mrs. Grant each planted a tree near the Toshign Temple, in Tokyo. The Japs have placed monumental stones by the side of the trees, respectful. The Hat. In England, and particularly in London, the hat is considered a much more important part of a gentleman's attire than it is in any other portion of the world—certainly more important than here in America, where a gentleman may wear any style of hat that is not positively shabby. A silk hat is the only dress article of head-wear allowed in London; at least so far as an Englishman is concerned; for the increase of cosmopolitan feeling in London permits strangers and foreigners to enjoy a considerable degree of latitude without unpleasant comment, which would not be tolerated among Londoners. During a half-hour's stroll up and down Regent street you will notice nearly a dozen varieties of hats, manufactured in as many countries, and all of them distinctively characteristic of various nationalities; but you will not see a representative English gentleman, who pays any attention to propriety in dress, wearing any other than the regulation silk hat of the proper height, shape and curl; though fifty years ago he could not have worn a silk hat without being considered vulgar, the beaver hat being the only one favored or allowed in fashionable circles. The slouch hat, so much admired by artists and men whose hair is allowed to grow to an uncommon length, the Derby, with either round or square crown, and any of the numerous shapes which for years past have been popular in America, are all known by the name "billy-cock," and the wearers of these styles of hats are all supposed to be Americans. In a letter written some time ago a friend stated: "As I was coming out of the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square the other day I met a party of three gentlemen, whom I should not have hesitated to hazard something were Americans. They were very nice looking, especially the youngest—one of those handsome New York 'boys' of ours—neat as a pin, his immaculate clothing fitting him as if he had been molded in it, his shapely hands freshly gloved and carrying a handsome light walking switch. But, alas for the etiquette of London streets and clubs! he wore a slouch hat—one of those brigadier-generals which equals the brigadier-generals themselves in number in war times." Musical Notes. Why is it that so many people who study music for good musicians? I think lies about equally with partners and scholars. How many do we all know who, if asked company, are compelled to play? Now it is utterly imminent a person to teach music unless exemplify their teaching heard people make the assessee person, although no player competent teacher; but it claims that the technical playing can be successfully performed by striking a chord, showing that chord should be struck in a minute; while a great man may be used up explaining and very little information.

The Japs have placed monumental stones by the side of the trees, respectively inscribed: "Grant's Hinoki" and "Mrs. Grant's Giyokuran." There are coal mines in Germany in which the phenomenon of subterranean waters having a regular ebb and flow has been observed. The scientific academies of Vienna and Berlin are studying it, and look for valuable additions to our knowledge of the earth's interior. Forney's Progress says there are women who make a business of going from watering place to watering place, at the close of the season, and buying at less than half cost the cast-off clothing of the bellies of society. This they take to the great cities and easily sell at a good profit. A German medical writer, in a work published in 1877, says that there are but two authentic cases known of five children being born at one birth. A third case is now reported from Kettwig on the Rhine. The children were well formed, though very small; but they lived only one hour. In the course of a few years the old expression "not worth a red cent" will have lost its force, for a specimen of the antique copper coin alluded to will be likely to be valued at a good many dollars. It was a very common piece of money for upwards of sixty years, having made its first appearance from the mint in 1792, but it is now fast disappearing from circulation. Detroit Currency. The thump-bang whack-pound-hammer style of piano-playing has almost disappeared. John Smith can go to Scotland from England for $10. It costs Queen Victoria $10,000. Paul Boyton is getting on swimmingly on his new book of travels—of swims, rather. If you want to go in first-class society in Cincinnati, you mustn't call it tuberose, but "tu-ba-ro-se."

Spotted Tail, the Indian chief, figures that white man's whisky has killed more Indians than white men's bullets. It is said that Blaine never forgets a face, especially the face of a Democrat who breaks him down in one of his speeches. English editors meet and jaw and tight with their bloody noses on national Gallery in Trafalgar Square the other day I met a party of three gentlemen, whom I should not have hesitated to hazard something were Americans. They were very nice looking, especially the youngest—one of those handsome New York 'boys' of ours—neat as a pin, his immaculate clothing fitting film as if he had been molded in it, his shapely hands freshly gloved and carrying a handsome light walking switch. But, alas for the etiquette of London streets and clubs! he wore a slonch hat—one of those brigadier-general affairs which equals the brigadier-generals themselves in number in war times, and have never entirely lost their popularity since. Our gentlemen like them because they are convenient to wear, soft to the head, are generally becoming, and are not so quickly spoiled as the silk hat. But here they are positively not the C. T. (correct thing). It is rather curious that Americans dislike the high hat so much. I know a New York gentleman who buys a silk hat every year—to make his New Year's calls in—and never wears it again. When the next year comes around he buys another and repeats the experience. Yet when I conjure his image in my mind's eye (on every day but New Year's) I must confess I summon the vision of a rowdy in a 'billy-cock' hat. This may be due to the influence which surrounds me just now. No doubt if I were in New York again I should be shocked at the idea of connecting the word "rowdy" with the gentleman in question, and I dare say his 'billy-cock' hat would seem all right. But I know if I were a man and came to London from New York, my first purchase would be a high silk hat. An essential cannon of good breeding is to efface (outwardly, at least) a too prominent provincialism, localism, nationalism or personalism of any sort. In walking the streets, or in a drawing-room, one should not be too manifestly an American, a Frenchman, a Russian or an Englishman; one is a gentleman—that is enough." Hats are alluded to by the earliest English authors of whom we have any knowledge, and hats, by whatsoever name they may have been called, have been in use from the remotest periods of human existence. When the Romans gave freedom to their slaves they bestowed upon them a hat, in token of their enfranchisement, and the hat has been ever since a symbol of freedom, except where the dictates of fashion have to be obeyed. Pennsylvania Coal Fields. The fearful loss of good material involved in mining and preparing anthracite, though greatly to be deplored, seems to be almost inevitable. The disposition of the coal in large solid beds and highly inclined positions involves strong supports to keep the superincumbent mass from crushing and closing the avenues of the mine, and these supports must consist of heavy pillars wrought out in the solid coal itself. Some of this pillar coal is ultimately removed, but much of it is inevitably lost, especially in the larger beds, which are frequently found from twenty to sixty feet in thickness and often inclined at an angle of from forty parents and teachers, entirely ruined as a musician; same little pieces tend to taste for good music.

English editors meet and jaw and fight and wipe their bloody noses on the nearest picket-fence, the same as Americans. Fulness of eye sometimes denotes language, and again it denotes that the owner called some one a liar and a horse-thief. All the newspapers having now published Prof. Wise’s obituary, it is time for the old gent to swim ashore or come out of the woods. A New Jersey paper says that there are lots of silvers on the wrong side of human nature, while the right side is planed down and sand-papered. It is a current bard who sings, “I sat alone with my conscience.” Two to one, says the Albany Journal, he never had less fun in all his born days. Blair Co., Pa., didn’t pay for its grave-yard, and the sheriff offers it for sale. Nice chance for a young doctor to get the foundation for a start in life. The Boston druggist who put up landanum for tincture of rhubarb was busy telling a friend a funny story, but a verdict for $5,000 damages sobered him up. Most young men are not satisfied with chalking their billiard-ones, but when through with the game are anxious to have the saloon-keeper chalk down the indebtedness. If it takes all the United States to suppress one tribe of Indians, how many United States would it take to break up a country dance after all the fellows begin to feel good? Wood, of the New York Sun, got the title of the “Great American Condenser” by knocking one of the ps out of pepper. No newspaper man will ever knock ‘em out of coffee. Honestwives who buy scales and reweigh their packages from the grocery will have the satisfaction of learning from the grocer that their scales are not within a mile of being correct. The fearful loss of good material involved in mining and preparing anthracite, though greatly to be deplored, seems to be almost inevitable. The disposition of the coal in large, solid beds and highly inclined positions involves strong supports to keep the superincumbent mass from crushing and closing the avenues of the mine, and these supports must consist of heavy pillars wrought out in the solid coal itself. Some of this pillar coal is ultimately removed, but much of it is inevitably lost, especially in the larger beds, which are frequently found from twenty to sixty feet in thickness and often inclined at an angle of from forty to seventy degrees. It is estimated that not more than sixty per cent of the coal is ever taken out of the mines. That which is brought to the surface is run through a structure very properly called a “breaker,” ingeniously devised for the destruction of coal. This process involves a loss of good coal equal to twenty or twenty-five per cent of the quantity mined. For the amount of coal wasted in mining (say forty per cent) and preparing (say twenty-five per cent) no one is paid; it is a dead loss to the landowner, miner and shipper. Plans for utilizing the waste coal dust or culm of anthracite collieries have been frequently suggested, but none have come into general use. The Anthracite Fuel Company at Port Ewen, on the Hudson, in 1877, used ninety per cent of coal dust and ten per cent of pitch, and made 300 tons of fuel per day, consuming 50,000 tons of culm annually. The Delaware and Hudson Company also use, at their mines, 60,000 tons per annum. They now ship all their coal down to pea sizes, and consume the culm for generating steam. If all our companies would follow this excellent example it would enable them to sell over half a million tons more coal and burn the same amount of refuse, thus earning or saving one half million dollars per annum. The Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company has recently introduced a method of burning coal dust in the furnaces of its engines, and the plan appears to meet with entire success.—Professor Shafer. That policy that can strike only while the iron is hot will be overcome by the perseverance which, like Cromwell’s can make the iron hot by striking; and he that can only rule the storm must yield to him who can both raise and rule it—Colton. Women’s writes—Postscripts. Musical Notes. Why is it that so many of our young people who study music fail to make good musicians? I think the fault lies about equally with parents, teachers and scholars. How many teachers do we all know who, if asked to play in company, are compelled to de line for the simple reason that they cannot play? Now it is utterly impossible for a person to teach music unless they can exemplify their teachings. I have heard people make the assertion that a person, although no player, might be a competent teacher; but it is folly to claim that the technical part of piano playing can be successfully taught by a person who knows nothing about it. A teacher who understands music can, by striking a chord, show a pupil how that chord should be struck, and do it in a minute; while a great deal of time may be used up explaining it orally and very little information be imparted. Such a teacher, we will say, takes a young girl as a pupil and starts her on an exercise to develop the fingers. The exercise is practiced one or two hours a day for perhaps three days and then dropped for a new one. The pupil is under the impression that as soon as she can strike the correct notes with sufficient rapidity the exercise is of no further use. After a few weeks of this kind of practice a "piece" must come, which to meet the ability of the pupil must be of the simplest character. This piece is learned and admired by papa and mamma; consequently others must be learned, to the neglect of exercises. The teacher furnishes the music to the pupil at a profit and does not care how many pieces are taken, and thus, through the shortsightedness of parents and teachers, the pupil is entirely ruined as a musician; for these same little pieces tend to pervert the taste for good music. The teacher is blamable for giving the "piece," the pupil for wanting it and the parents for encouraging their use. My theory is this: Take a pupil in whom there is talent, and put him from the first under a competent and conscientious teacher. Such a teacher will keep the pupil on exercises alone until the technique is formed. It will take a good while and will be dry work, but months and even years can be profitably employed on exercises alone. When the technique is formed the pupil's Cents In postage stamps will get the most brilliant and complete weekly newspaper in the world.

Such a teacher will keep the pupil on exercises alone until the technique is formed. It will take a good while and will be dry work, but months and even years can be profitably employed on exercises alone. When the technique is formed the pupil will be sufficiently advanced to commence the study and practice of first-class music. The best composers have written music for the use of amateurs. Beethoven’s “easy sonatas,” Dusseks’ “sonatas,” etc., are excellent music and quite easy. In learning a new piece I find it best to take it away from an instrument and study it thoroughly, noting every little expression mark and every peculiarity of the piece. Then take it to the instrument and read it over exactly as it is written, paying the very closest attention to all marks, every one of which has its use. A very common error with musicians is the habit of playing everything not marked staccato as though it was slurred. This is very wrong and very bad. When it is neither slurred or marked staccato, every note should be cut off promptly before the next one is reached, otherwise they will run in together and give the passage a careless, slouchy, slip-shod sound. There are many musical terms that are synonymous if you take the dictionary for it, while there is really a considerable difference in their meaning. Thus “Una Corda” and “P both mean softly, but the first means that the soft pedal must be employed while the latter does not. Another great defect in playing is in the way explosive chords are often played. Light octave or chord passages should be played from the wrist, the fingers striking the keys lightly and the hand bounding up perpendicularly like a rubber ball, the arm remaining perfectly still; but an explosive chord marked it, with a small triangular sign over it, should be taken with the arm; strike hard with the loud pedal on; the stroke must be made as short as possible and the hands and the loud pedal instantly and simultaneously removed. The hands in leaving the keys should rise perpendicularly and with a spring. If either the hands or pedal are not removed in time it leaves the chord with a drag to it which ruins the effect. To conclude: What is necessary after talent to make a successful performer is a thorough and continual practice of such exercises as those of Czerny, Plaisly, Moscheles and Heller, which will train the fingers and form the technique; afterwards the careful study of the works of such composers as Beethoven, Chopin, Henselt and others, and the entire exclusion of trashy music. If a piece is written allegro, do not play it moderately. Study each movement and give its proper time. When a performer has learned to master Beethoven’s op. 7, Chopin’s op. 40, and such music, there is a world of pleasure and enjoyment. White's Prairie Flower.

The hue and cry raised against it by patent medicine men, who have foreseen in its advent the destruction of their nefarious business, and the thousands of un-solicited testimonials flowing in from all parts of the New World, is a sure indication of its great merits.

Turner's Regulator Is proving such an indispensable article to those suffering from liver complaint that parties are in some cases purifying half a dozen bottles at a time, after they have tried it. Physicians frequently prescribe the Sacred Bark which is one of the ingredients in this medicine. The advantage of using Turner's Regulator arises from the fact that its ingredients are the result of experiment and study such as few physicians could devote to a single object. The Robertson Process Is growing more popular every day for the reason that more ore can be extracted from mines where roasting is necessary.

To the Standard Soap Co.—Gentlemen: It affords me pleasure to say to the public that I have used and prescribed your PHOSPHATE SOAP as a remedy in various forms of cutaneous diseases with the happiest results. I am of the opinion that it is the mildest and most perfect, detergent that can be used, either for cleansing the skin and leaving it soft and healthy, or for removing the fetor and corroding influences of sores and ulcerations. I should be sorry to be without it in shaving my face or making my toilet, to say nothing of my good opinion of its remedial qualities. A. J. SPENCER, M. D. San Francisco, July 19, 1897. Standard Soap Co.—Gentlemen: The ladies of my household, four in number, unite with me in pronouncing your PHOSPHATE SOAP the best ever tried for toilet use. It is noticeable that while it readily removes impurities from the skin, it also leaves undisturbed the natural oil so essential to the health. It is not too strong language to say that we are delighted with it. C. M. SAWTELLE, M. D., 120 Capp street. San Francisco, July 19, 1897. Standard Soap Co.—Gents: I have tried your PHOSPHATE SOAP, and have no hesitation in saying that it is the best toilet soap ever used. My wife has used it and is of the same opinion. I have paid as high as fifty cents per cake for an article in every respect inferior to what you sell for twenty-five cents. HENRY H. LYNCH, 515 Haight street. The genuine merits of PHOSPHATE SOAP and persistent advertising will force every druggist, groceryman and general dealer to order it by the gross sooner or later. Ask for it in every store.
