Of course I know where he lives," said a small boy in Hempstead of whom the reporter inquired the way to the Brighton Kennel. "He boards and trains dogs." Everybody in Hempstead knows Charley Wilson, a genial young colored man. Charley, in a quiet, unostentatious way, trains dogs that are destined to take high places in the canine world and many of the animals that have distinguished themselves on Robbin's Island and elsewhere have learned the rudiments of their business in the Brighton Kennel. Here, too, is a hospital in which sick dogs may receive treatment and have comforts, and maimed ones the advantage of surgical experience. "Now, there is a dog," he said, pointing to a fine setter with a slight limp, "that I had some trouble with. His foot was crushed under the wheel of a wagon, and when he came to me he looked like an incurable; but in a week more he will be ready to take the field. He is very intelligent, and knows what I am saying as well as you do. Come here and show us your paw." The obedient setter came forward, and with a supplicating, but confident air, placed his sore paw in the reporter's hand; but he closed his eyes and put his tongue out of his mouth, as if insinuating that it might be indicting to squeeze the foot according to the animal's intelligence. English setters and English pointers are much the easiest to break in. I exercise them first in the yard, where I teach them to retrieve and stand gun fire. But very often the 'gun scare' gets on them, and they will run when they hear a shot fired. This must be stopped at once or the dog is ruined. When it is very bad I am obliged to stop it by the spike-collar method. I put a collar with small spikes on inside on the dog's neck, and hold him with a string fastened to my belt. When I fire, and he attempts to run away, of course the spikes prick him, and he soon learns to stand the shot. Cruel? Oh, no; it hurts him very little. The spikes are not long or very sharp, and they simply serve to remind him that he must not run." Mr. Arpad Haraszthy having expressed in a published interview the fear that the boom in grape planting would result in great depression in the price of wine, C. Krug, of St. Helena, makes the following reply: "I am not in the least alarmed at the rapid progress that is being made in planting vines. Each new planter profits by the experience of the other producers, and the quality of our wines, by reason of judicious selections of varieties of vines, will constantly increase. The producers are not at all alarmed, but are themselves foremost among those making increased and improved plantations. If they do not fear over-production I see no reason for the alarm of any merchant. Increased production with improved quality has PAINT ON THE FACE. Can Women Paint Without Detection - The Result of an Experiment. Clara Belle writes to the Cincinnati Enquirer the result of an experiment as follows: "Having read several accounts purporting to tell how the writers had been beautified by paint and cosmetics in professional hands, I wondered whether it was really a fact that a woman's face could be so deftly 'made up' as to defy detection. There was only one way to test the question, and that was to submit myself personally to treatment. So I went to the foremost 'beautifying bazaar' in the city, the one about which I had heard the most praise, and soon found myself in a small private room, seated in something like a barber's chair before a mirror, with a female operator. She began by making me take off the waist of my dress, and then she enveloped me in a loose muslin wrapper. Next she shampooed my hair thoroughly, and that felt cool and good. Then she dried it with a sponge, brushed it up from my neck and forehead, and dressed it after the fashion of the period, using a great deal of sticky bandoline. She went for my eyes, bathing them from a liquid, which probably had belladonna in it, for it enlarged the pupils and imparted a brilliance. The next operation was to pull out a stray hair here and there on my neck, arms and shoulders, with a pair of tweezers. Then she washed my face with a pale, rose colored cosmetic, which dried rapidly while she rubbed it with..." The obedient settler came forward, and with a supplicating, but confident air, placed his sore paw in the reporter's hand; but he closed his eyes and put his tongue out of his mouth, as if insinuating that it might be injudicious to squeeze the foot. "Mange." Wilson said, "is a very hard disease to cure. It is like diphtheria in one respect. When all signs of it have disappeared, and you think you have conquered it entirely, it breaks out worse than ever. If the dog is sent to me in anything like reasonable time, however, I can check the disorder. Distemper is the most common complaint with well-bred dogs, but if it is not allowed to go too far, it can be cured. Fits, which chiefly to small in-bred dogs, are usually caused by worms. The difficulty about dealing with fits is that sometimes the dog is seized with a fit and bursts a blood vessel, and is dead in a few minutes. Nobody can prevent that. "Come here, Shot," he said, after he had unfastened the collar of a Gordon setter, a tail, lean, handsome animal, that, on obtaining his liberty, at once began to range around with his nose to the ground. When he was some fifty feet away the trainer raised his arm and the dog dropped to the ground and lay motionless. "He is well trained," Wilson said. "Call him." The visitor whistled and made a chirruping noise with his lips, and used all those blandishments with which dogs are beguiled, but Shot never moved until the trainer again raised his hand, when the intelligent animal at once bounded across the road. He is two years and a half old, and was broken at the Bright Kennel a year ago. He belongs to Mr. Warren Crunksiank of Hempstead, and at present occupies the position of a boarder. "Do you see that dog?" pointing to an Irish settler in the next kennel to that of Shot. "His name is Gout, and he belongs to Mr. Kingsley of Brooklyn. I do not think there is a finer pup in the world. He is six months old and nearly trained. There will be nothing like him in America when I have done with him. Already he knows his business very well, and he will retrieve on land or water. I don't know how much that dog's worth, but there are not many settlers in the world that would bring a larger price. "Now there," pointing to a medium-sized black setter, "is Black Dan. He is a spiendid dog. He is owned in Garden City, but he is going South in a few days. He is thoroughly trained for the field, and has a scent like a bloodhound's. Dan, smell this." The trainer placed an empty and well-worn pocketbook to the dog's nose, and Dan sniffed at it. Then the trainer and his visi- Next she shampooed my hair thoroughly, and that felt cool and good. Then she dried it with a sponge, brushed it up from my neck and forehead, and dressed it after the fashion of the period, using a great deal of sticky bandline. She went for my eyes, bathing them from a liquid, which probably had belladonna in it, for it enlarged the pups and imparted a brilliance. The next operation was to pull out a stray hair here and there on my neck, arms and shoulders, with a pair of tweezers. Then she washed my face with a pale, rose colored cosmetic, which dried rapidly while she rubbed it with a soft sponge. With a rabbit's foot, such as is used by actors, she put a higher tint on my cheeks, and some bright ronge on my lips and nostrils. With a brush she blackened my eyebrows, lashes, and underneath my eyebrows. The veins on my temples were delicately traced with light blue; and finally, I was dabbed with powder. The operation was just what I expected, and I paid $5 for it. I was also invited to buy the various things which the undeniably skillful woman had used on me. Well, my verdict on the result is simply this: No woman can paint without detection. Devotees of fashion may just as well abandon the contrary opinion. I looked into the mirror on getting out of the chair and hardly recognized myself. My face was greatly changed. My eyes shone, my cheeks glowed, and there was a brightness and piquancy that had not been there when I entered. But this, mind you, was in a somewhat dimly lighted room, where the work was softened and shaded. Ten minutes afterward I met myself in a street mirror, under the full glare of a noonday sun. Well, I was simply disgusted. The painted surface looked no more like human skin than it did like sole leather; the black around my eyes was like strokes of charcoal, my lips had the unnatural red of scarlet ink. I walked up to the glass and viewed my artificial countenance with a feeling of repulsion. It reminded me of some exeercable portrait done in water colors. I hurried into a store and bought a veil, with which I covered the beautification. I then went straightway home and scrubbed my face until every trace of foreign substance was gone. My experience convinced me of the utter folly of paint as a beautifier, for by no possibility can it be put on without showing exactly what it is. Dry powder, and mighty little of that, is all I would advise any woman to put on her face. If nature has not imparted beauty of complexion there is no use trying to make up the deficiency by artifice. It is far better to turn our ingenuity toward wearing our hair becomingly, for in that direction a great deal of comeliness may be commanded. But let pigments alone, unless you are content to be pretty in a ghastly kind of way and at the sacrifice of all outward indications of warm flesh and blood.” his business very well, and he will retrieve on land or water. I don't know how much that dog's worth, but there are not many setters in the world that would bring a larger price. "Now there," pointing to a medium-sized black setter, "is Black Dan. He is a spiendid dog. He is owned in Garden City, but he is going South in a few days. He is thoroughly trained for the field, and has a scent like a bloodhound's Dan, smell this." The trainer placed an empty and well-worn pocketbook to the dog's nose, and Dan sniffed at it. Then the trainer and his visitor went about two hundred yards down the road, and the wallet was placed on a wall four feet high. Returning to the kennel, Mr. Wilson whispered some instructions into the dog's ear, and took off his collar. He ranged away with his nose down, at first taking the wrong direction, but soon correcting himself. He was evidently not going through any routine work, for the visitor and not the trainer had selected the place to put the pocketbook. Once or twice the dog overshot the mark, but at last, going more slowly, he approached the place. He stopped under it, smelled the ground and the stones for a few seconds, and then, jumping up, seized the pocketbook and carried it back to the kennel. "That," Wilson said, "may be looked upon as a branch of house training. Oh, yes, I train dogs for the house. Fine setters and pointers are often sent to me with instructions to make them attractive dogs in the house only, as they are not wanted for field sports. When they go back to their owners they will go down to the kitchen or up to a bedroom, when desired, and bring back any article named. If the right boot or shoe or slipper is wanted, they will never make the mistake of bringing the left one. If such a thing was needed, I could make them tell the difference between a gold watch and a silver one, and bring one or the other any distance without breaking it. Of course, the dogs that I am instructed to train in this way are usually ladies' lap dogs or terners, but I could make any of them do just what they are told. Dogs are much like men in their aptitude for learning. Some will pick up a thing very quickly, while others give a good deal of trouble. The time generally occupied in training a dog is from three to five months, Some of the occupants of the cars were roasted to death in sight of hundreds of people who were unable to rescue the helpless passengers. Two women were seen clapped in each others arms and jammed between the framework of one of the cars and the colliding engine. The flames quickly lapped them in its fiery embrace. Owing to the great crowd of legislators and others who desired to leave the capital, the train was filled with all the men of note and prominence of both parties. It is stated that Senator Wagner was seen on the car at Poughkeepsie, and has not since been seen. His son was at the wreck looking for his father. J. D. Ransom, of the Hoffman House, is also missing. The corrected list of those killed is as follows: Senator Wagner, Park Valentine, Bennington, Vt., aged 21; Mrs. Valentine, aged 19, North Adams, Mass.; Oliver Keiley, Spring City, Pa.; D. L. Ransom, a guest at the Hoffman House; Rev. F. Marichal, residence not given; Miss Maud Brown, 443 West Fifty-third street, N. Y., and a man unknown. Hue, in his "Voyages en Chine," speaks of a polyp known as tsou no-dze, possessing the peculiar faculty of turning water mixed with alcohol into vinegar. It is found in small numbers in the Yellow Sea, sometimes on the Lao-tong coast. The process, a very simple one, of making vinegar by means of it, Hue describes as follows: "The polyp is placed in a vessel filled with water to which a few glasses of pure spirits are added. In the course of twenty-five or thirty days the liquor will have become transformed into excellent vinegar, without the addition of any other substance or liquid whatever. The vinegar will be as clear as spring water and of an agreeable flavor. One great advantage of it is, that as soon as the first vessel of vinegar has been made it becomes an inexhaustible supply. All that is necessary afterward to do, is to replace the quantity drawn from the vessel by an equal quantity of pure water and the acidification goes on. No further spirits need be added." This polyp, he says, reproduces itself in much the same way that a tree puts forth buds. Visiting Cards at the Gazette Office Wild Horse, Texas, Jan. 13.—The dissatisfaction among the workmen on the Texas-Pacific Railway at the recent order from Manager Hoxie reducing their wages to $1.15 per day, has culminated in this place, 500 miles west of Dallas. The pay car being mistaken for Hoxie's private car, was side-tracked by a large force of desperate men determined to lynch Hoxie. They piled wood around the car for the purpose of roasting him and it was with great difficulty that Major Kretz, the paymaster, convinced the mob that he was not Hoxie. The paymaster, after being detained 48 hours, has been allowed to leave town. Recently at the Essex Quarter Sessions—such is the anomalous state of English law—it was found in a case of undoubted theft that the law does not permit an indictment for stealing growing grapes cut from the vine. The thieves, however, had taken the proprietor's scissors to cut the bunches, and having pocketed that usetul implement, were found guilty of stealing and properly punished. While the recent French Congress on the ravages of phylloxera has been recommending the introduction of foreign vines, the French Ministry of Agriculture has issued a decree in which it is specifically stated that vine plants and slips are not permitted to be imported into France. As Nevada has no wants in particular, Senator Jones announces himself a senator of the United States, interested in common with others in the welfare of the country. There ought to be more senators of the United States. Paris, Jan. 12.—The official returns of the vintage give a little more than 24,000,000 hectolitres, showing diminished production. GAZETTE.

The farmers in the vicinity of Tulare City are cutting an irrigating canal through the Farmington region. Its estimated cost is $65,000. The north-bound coast line stage was stopped by a masked highwayman and robbed of Wells, Fargo & Co's treasure box, between the Oak Grove Hotel and Salinas river, Friday week. I. Gilman, an old resident of Mariposa county, aged 70 years, committed suicide on Wednesday by shooting himself near Berton's mills, on the Merced river. This is the fourth suicide in Mariposa within the last thirty days. A plan is before Congress to divide the United States Supreme Court into three branches—for equity cases, common law cases and admiralty cases. It is said to be approved by lawyers and by Justices of the Court. Mrs. Garfield is living very quietly and comfortable in Cleveland. When her sons leave college, she will choose between Cleveland and Washington for a permanent home. The dead President's mother preserves her health, is bright and cheerful, and is an inveterate reader of books, magazines and newspapers. "COLD CATCHING." It is noteworthy as a curious yet easily explicable fact, that few persons take cold who are not either self-consciously careful, or fearful of the consequences of exposure. If the attention be wholly diverted from the existence of danger, by some supreme concentration of thought; as, for example, when escaping from a house on fire or plunging into cold water to save life—the effects of "chill" are seldom experienced. This alone should serve to suggest that the influence exerted by cold falls on the nervous system. The immediate effect of a displacement of blood from the surface, and its determination to the internal organs, are not, as was once supposed, sufficient to produce the sort of congestion that issues in inflammation. If it were so, an inflammatory condition would be the common characteristic of our bodily state. When the vascular system is healthy, and that part of the nervous apparatus by which the caliber of the vessels is controlled performs its proper functions normally, any disturbance of equilibrium in the circulatory system which may have been produced by external cold will be quickly adjusted. It is therefore, on the state of the nervous system that everything depends, and it is, as we have said, on the nervous system the stress of a "chill" falls. Consciousness is one element in the production of a cold, and when that is wanting the phenomenon is not very likely to ensue. It is in this way that persons who do not cultivate the fear of cold-catching are not, pooped my hair thoroughly, cold and good.

Texas, Jan. 13.—The dising the workmen on the away at the recent order A plan is before Congress to divide the United States Supreme Court into three branches—for equity cases, common law cases and admiralty cases. It is said to be approved by lawyers and by Justices of the Court. Mrs. Garfield is living very quietly and comfortable in Cleveland. When her sons leave college, she will choose between Cleveland and Washington for a permanent home. The dead President's mother preserves her health, is bright and cheerful, and is an inveterate reader of books, magazines and newspapers. A new cable company has been chartered in England under the name of the American-Canadian-European and Asiatic Company. It proposes to lay two submarine Atlantic cables next summer between this country and England, with connections to the Mediterranean. It is also intended to construct land telegraph lines between Halifax and Vancouver Island. Colonel Lawson, Agent for the Mission Indians, is furnishing the Indians in the northern part of San Diego county with tools for farming. He lately sent out a large stock of plows, harness, hoes and other agricultural implements to the Indians at San Jacinto and Warner's ranch, and they are preparing to put in a large area of grain. The wife of the new Chinese Minister, a lady of high rank in her own country, will not at present enter Washington society. She speaks only her own language. Her little feet will not permit her to go about unsupported, and she is, to crown all, exceedingly bashful. A few weeks' experience in Washington society would cure her of bashfulness. The Reverend Francis J. Schneider of New York city last year joined 747 couples in wedlock. The daily average of marriages performed by this minister was over two. In 1880 Mr. Schneider married only 526 couples. He is a German, ordained as a priest in the Lutheran Church. His fees for performing the marriage ceremony range from $3 to $20, or any sum the groom's generosity may suggest. Mrs. Logan, the wife of the Senator, belongs to the Methodist Church and believes in total abstinence. It is reported, by the way, that a number of ladies in Washington—some of them prominent in society—have organized a secret association called "Guardian Angels." Its purpose is the exertion of social influence for the reform of Congressmen and others who are inclined to the cup that inebriates. Considerable apprehension is felt among railroad men on the Missouri, Kansas and Texas line, who run through Indian Territory, because of the many obstructions placed upon the track of late. Extra patrolmen have been employed. In one case a patrolman was shot, and his boy placed on the track, and a train came near being wrecked at the spot. The air brakes alone paratus by which the caliber of the vessels is controlled performs its proper functions normally, any disturbance of equilibrium in the circulatory system which may have been produced by external cold will be quickly adjusted. It is therefore, on the state of the nervous system that everything depends, and it is, as we have said, on the nervous system the stress of a "chill" falls. Consciousness is one element in the production of a cold, and when that is wanting the phenomenon is not very likely to ensue. It is in this way that persons who do not cultivate the fear of cold-catching are not, as a rule, subject to this infliction. This is one reason why the habit of wrapping up tends to create a morbid susceptibility. The mind by its fear-begetting precaution keeps the nervous system on the alert for impressions of cold, and the centers are, so to say, panicstricken when even a slight sensation occurs. Cold applied to the surface, even in the form of a gentle current of air somewhat lower in temperature than the skin, will produce the "feeling" of "chill." Conversely a thought will often give rise to the "feeling" of cold applied to the surface—for example, of cold water running down the back.” Many of the sensations of cold or heat which are experienced by the hyper-sensitive have no external cause. They are purely ideational in their mode of origination, and ideal in fact. At Zurich, in former times, it was the custom when a married couple applied for divorce on account of incompatibility of temper, for the magistrates to shut up the pair for a fortnight in an isolated tower on the lake. Not only were they condemned to a common room, but they were supplied with only one bed, one chair, one knife and one fork, so that their comfort depended entirely on mutual complainsance. If after the expiration of the fortnight, they persisted in their resolution, the tribunal ordered a serious examination of the case, and if possible, the divorce. But in general the quarrelsome pair did not wait for the end of the trial to which they were subjected to become reconciled, and to request to be released. The third annual meeting of the Texas Woolgrowers' Association adjourned last week after a five days' session at San Antonio. The session was well attended, and considerable business was transacted. A resolution was unanimously adopted asking the Governor to include in his proclamation, soon to be issued to call a special session of the Legislature, the necessity to legislate upon the seabash law and other matters of interest to the sheep men of Texas. A resolution that the State Woolgrowers' Association of Texas will not offer wool for sale in a market where a deduction is made for weight on sacks called forth a lively discussion, and was finally defeated. Governor Vance was in Philadelphia the other day, and while there met, in the per- Texas, Jan. 13. The disgust the workmen on the railroad men on the Missouri, Kansas and Texas line, who run through Indian Territory, because of the many obstructions placed upon the track of late. Extra patrolmen have been employed. In one case a patrolman was shot, and his boy placed on the track, and a train came near being wrecked at the spot. The air brakes alone saved it. The Territory swarms with cut throats and thieves. The export season for the dried fruits of the Levant is now in full activity. In one fortnight lately no fewer than 195,000 barrels, cases, bags, boxes, drums and baskets of figs and raisins were shipped at Smyrna. The best figs of commerce are chiefly grown in Asia Minor, where the fruit begins to ripen at the end of June, and the summer yield, which gives employment to a large population, comes to market in immense quantities in September and October. The trees often yield three crops. Hon. W. McPherson Hill, who is the owner of a large and fine vineyard four or five miles northwest of Sonoma, last summer experimented with methods of drowning out the phylloxera parasites on samples of infested grape roots. He placed them in bottles of water, and failed at the end of eighteen days to drown them. It required forty days to kill the insects. This experiment may be regarded as settling the question in favor of submerging vineyards, whose owners can avail themselves of plenty of water. At Grass Valley last week Mrs. Nannie Ninniss died while under the influence of chlorotorm for the purpose of having her teeth extracted. Dr. Jones administered the drug, and had given her two teaspoonsful, and Dr. Pennington, the dentist, had extracted five teeth, when it was discovered that the woman was dying. All necessary remedies were applied, but to no avail. A Coroner’s jury in the case, after careful examination, rendered a verdict that the lady came to her death from syncope, induced by chloroform. The jury exonerated Dr. Jones from all blame in the case.

Governor Vance was in Philadelphia the other day, and while there met, in the person of a hotel waiter, a negro advanced to middle age, whom he had known down South. He made a few pleasant remarks to the colored man and got led into twitting him about religious matters, on which the darkey spoke with some fervor. “Well now, Joe,” said the Governor, “do you really believe in this matter of election by God that you speak of?” “Deed I do, Massa Vance,” said the negro seriously, with a shake of the head. “Well, do you think I am elected to be saved?” “Seasly know, Massa Vance, but I neber heard of any one being lected what wasn’t a candidate.” Ortrawa, January 13. During the service in the Notre Dame Cathedral to-day an insane man named Walsh shot himself. A panic seized the congregation and many women fainted, but no one was killed.

A dispatch from Calmor, Sweden, states that a Swedish mail steamer sank in Calmor Sound while on a trial trip. Fifteen persons were drowned. L. D. Gardner, of the firm of E. A. Clem & Co., of Oakland, committed suicide by shooting himself at Santa Cruz on Sunday. Warrants for his arrest on a charge of forgery had been issued, and rather than suffer for his crimes he killed himself.
