The State press speak of Pied
mont's newly elected Mayor, P. S.
Hyde, as a mugwump. Mistake!
lie’s a Democrat, aud Democrats
are not mugwumps, and don’t you
forget it.
Says the New York World: ‘‘The
post-office at Liberty, W. Ya , lias
been discontinued. Mail is now sent
to Paradice.” This rcfnarkaldc item
of current mws speaks well for the
present Administration. Its Repub
lican predecessors had no such mail
connections.
The Weston Republican, in speak*
ing of W. W. Brannon, says, ‘‘The
inscription over his political tomb is
Sic semjtcr tyrrannus ”
The orthorgrnphy of tho above
Latin quotation is pretty hard on the
tyrrant, and no doubt Brannon will
be tnad enough to kick himself all
over Weston.

Gen. W. B. Hazbn, the head
officer of the U. S. Signal Service,
died in Washington last Saturday
evening at 8 o’clock, in the 57th
year of his age. Since his gradua
tion at the U. S. Military Academy
in June, 1855, he has been constant
ly in the employ of the government
both in peace and in war. He rend
ered very valuable services to his
country during the Civil war, as a
general, and has been in high favor
with the military authorities ever
since the close of that ever-memor
able conflict- lie died in the milita
ry service of his country, without a
defined blot upon his memory.
Requtescnt in pace.
The following very sensible re
marks on the subject of foreign im
migration we clip from the Kanawha
Gazette:
“The problem of foreign immigra
tion to this country is one of the most
s :rious ones that confront the people
of this country to-day. Almost every
ship that arrives as an American port
Is loaded down with immigrants. The
most of the public land, the inheri
tince of the American people, has al
ready been taken up by them. In a
few years, if the present condition of
things is permitted to continue, the
last acre will be appropriated by them.
Thus the American people are pursu
ing a policy that gives to tire foreign
er what ought to be kept for their
own posterity. The children of the
rising generation will be strangers in
their own land, that which should
have been sacredly held for them,
hiving been bestowed upon people of
o-her lands.”

“ I have had some experience with
S inator Kanna within tiie last year,
together with what I have observed,
that has convinced me that he is a
rare exception in Washington, when
one hae to depend upon promises,
Kenna always says "No,” and ‘Yes'
at the proper time, and does not ap
pear to higgle over it. If he makes
you a promise, you can depend upon
it that that promise is going lo Ik*
fulfilled. If he says he can not, or
does not want to do anything for you,
you might as well try to swim Niag
ara as to try to persuade him to do
(L He is most always right, and sel
dom makes up his mind until he
knows that he Is doing what he is con
vinced is right, I am told by those
who arc close to him that he always
not only expect* the same treatment
but requires it on the part of those
who want him to serve them. If he
is once deceived, the one practicing
the deception might ns well give up
all hope* of sucses* if he is depend
ing upon Kenna for it. It is said
that there is ncthing that he despises
more in an individual than duplicity
and double dealing. He is certainly
one of the most frank and truthful
politicians that I have ever known,
and during a residence in Washing
ton city for a half dozen years, I be
lleve that I have had enough ex
perience with public men to enable
mo to size up a real good man,
Kenna * measure has been taken and
be has not been found wanting.

A hill will be introduced in tlic
Legislature at at early day provid
ing for the attendance of the youth of
the State upon the public schools, the !
proposed measure being of great im- j
portance to every eitizen.
The first section of the bill pro- 1
vidcs that all youth between tLe ages
of 8 and 14 years shall attend the
public schools provided in their re
spective school district during the
whole of the term for which said
school shall be kept open.
The second section pnn i les that
it shall be lawful foranvboch person
to remain away from school during
any period in which he may be unfit
for attendance l y reason of disease,
and during such time as he may be
jn attendance upon a private school.

A special to the Wheeling Register
says: Kustace (iibson is one of the
most presistent placehunters in Con
gress. He never tires in criticising
the policy of the administration in
keeping Republicans in ofliee. He
has no hesitancy in telling those al
ready in, what he thinks of what
he styles their cawardicc. lie seems
to thrive on this subject. He has,
however, secured more appointments
such as they are, than all the other
West Virginia Democrats combined.
It seems to be a fact that those who
abuse the mugwump policy’ of some
of the officials, get more considera
lion at their hands Ilian those who
profess (lut who are not sincere), to
support every act of the administra
tion. Gibson nev9r bears of a prob
able vacancy, where the slightest
probability of geting a West Virgin
ian in is manifested, but that he does
not at once start alter it. If all
Democrats were so presistent in be
half ot their constituents as Mr.
Gibson, there is no doubt but that
there would be more of them in office i
than there are. Say what you mat’
about Mr. Gibson, no one can ever
accuse him of neglecting the interests
of any one of his constituents- lie
has been, and is yet, a hard worker.
He leaves no stone unturned to serve
them. Gibson has faults, but among
them cannot be charged ingratitude
or indifference.

HE HAO AN IDEA.
The Simple Invention Wlilrh lire tight •
Tortnne to n Plodding (ierinan.
I rnn neruM ono of these men with nn ;
idea the other tiny. Ho is n mi'ldle aged
Qernmn nml he lives on Vanderbilt
avenue. A few years ago he was a very
ordinary fellow, drudging away at a
trade, with the prospect of always being
poor and a drudge. That was what his
neighbors thought of him. Hut, while
he was pounding away he emulated the
example of the widow’s famous cow,
“didn’t say much, but kept up a divvil of
a thlukin’." One day he got up from his
beuch (I think it was a Itcnch, though it
might have been a tailor's table or a
butcher's block; anyhow, the plodding
German knocked off from Ills trade) nml
he went mitT of the shop with an idea.
His friends noticed no change in their
plodding neighlsir. If they noticed him
at all, it was to reflect what a hopeless
drudge of a German be was. Meanwhile,
he went right ahead with his idea.
Then some of his friends discovered
that he did not cotne back to his bench.
That worried them a little. A few weeks
later they observed that ho went over to
New York every day nnd was beginning
to dress better ami spruce up a bit. That
really gave them a great deal of concern.
The next thing they took note of was
that the petty German tradesman had
begun to build a new house. Then they
were terribly cut up. Finally the whole
thing c ame out. The Vanderbilt nveiuie
German's Idea was simple enough, but it
lias already made him rich nnd the money
keeps coming in. Ills Idea originated
the small cnnlboard signs, with vario
lated letters upon them, seen around the
walls of every popular restaurant. Tho
letters look like letters cut out of wall
paper. At llrst they wore. Then tho
German thought of un improvement niul
lie tried making the letters of prettily
figured calico. That gave tho little signs
greater durability, nnd as he had prepared
a glue especially adapted to sticking on
the letters, ft struck him to npply for a
patent.
simple ns was tiio whole (lung, lie got
Ills patent. It baa filled hJs purse and
lifted him out of tho life of a drudge.114|
Not only in every popular restaurant in
Brooklyn arc these attractive little sigus I
to ho found, announcing specialties on
the hill of fare each day, and thus making I
the demand constant, hut in many bar
rooms, drug stores, waiting rooms, hotel
corridors, o dices and scores of other
places they serve a diversity of purposes.
From Brooklyn and New York restau
rants the popularity of t lie variegated card
signs extended to other cities, until now
the little signs are in common uso as far
east as Boston and as far we it as Chi
cago. Remounts of cloth are used in
making the letters, and the cost is, there
fore, very light. The demand hns licon
something tremendous, and tho plodding
German tradesman of Vanderbilt avenuo I
has risen to the dignity of a solid business
man, with his ofTlco In New York, his
family in a new house and prosperity all
around him.—Brooklyn Fugle.
Purla as a Clean City.
Paris is a very clean city as to the con- j
dition of her streets. It is too clean,
almost, for tho continual use of the hy
drant and broom to keep everything fresh
und free from dust makes more mud
than is agreeable to ladies with trailing
skirts, and tho critical Parisian lias every
right to find fault with the compara
tively filthy csfhdition of Now York. Yet
there is one thing that cannot be over
looked—that certaiu seasons of the year,
and at certain hours of the day, even the
best neighborhoods of Paris are ill smell
ing to a degreo never attained by tho
courtyard of a Cherry street tenement
house. Tho terrible “Colounes Morris" on
the boulevards are largely responsible for
this all the way from the Madeleine to
the Place do la Bast He. and in the side
streets still more public latrinie ofTend
the sight and poison the air.
As a disinfectant chloride of lime is
freely used, but I am not suro but that
the remedy is worse than the disease. In
tho tainted ntmosphero hanging over
two or threo points on every block of the
principal boulevards, the stench (A^hlo
rhle of lime, and the not infrequ<4K.whlfT
of garlic wafted toward the stroller by a
blouse wearing representative of tlie
working classes, the French capital pos

Iieurcnt of the ITnbrolla.
J.I was not until the year 1800 that
Americans began to make their own um
brellos. The word cornus from the Latin
umbra, which means a shade, but the
name, most probably, was Introduced
into the English language from the Ital
ian word ombrella. Parasol means “to
ward off the sun,” nnd another pretty
name, not much used by Americans for
a small parasol, Is “parasolette.” The
umbrella, in oriental countries, is a very
ancient and primitive sybmol of royal
authority. The “crown” is but thp fur
cap of northern races, adorned with gold
and Jewels.
The umbrella traces its descent to the
primeval ancestry of the tropical forest;
the gigantic leaves of the palms are its
prototype. Hut it is only in very recept
times that tbo ombrella has been con
verted into tbo pnrapHlie. Those of our
readers who have read "Robinson Cru
soe. ” remember how he made his um
brella and covered It with skins. Then 1
there huvo been umbrellas covered with
i large feathers tlmt would shed rain like a

coverings of oil /Joth. of straw, of paper,
or woolen stuff*, until pnw nearly all
umbrellas are covered either with /*Jlk,

I'lddloa for Firewood.
When Ole Hull, the renowned violin*
1st, was staying iu Paris, in 1»10, lie re
turned home late one evening from a
concert, nud as tho night was cold ho or
dered Ids man to make n fire in the room.
The latter dragged toward the fireplace n
huge l>ox, on which the word “Fire
wood” was painted in large letters. In
answer to Ole Hull’s astonished inquiry
the servant told him that the box had
been delivered that day at noon by hid
master s orders, as ho thought.
On being broken open the box was
found to contain twenty-two violins and
tlie following letter: “Great Master—
Tho undersigned, being members of
various amateur philharmonic societies,
hereby declare that they will henceforth
cease to perform on the accompanying in
struments. Tho same wood from which
Ole Hull can draw life, love, sorrow, pas
sion and melody, is only to bo regarded
a*—fuel for the flames in tho bunds of
tlie undersigned, who therefore request
the maestro to make an uuto-dn-fe of the
inclosurcs, and to look upon the ascend
ing smoke as incense offered to Ids genius
by Ids penitent dabblers iu tho noble
art.” This curious epistle bore the sig
natures of twenty-two young men.
Three days afterward Ole Hull gave a
dinner, to which he invited all the send
ers of tlie valuable “firewood.” Each
guest had lying before him on tho table
one of tho violins referred to, and by its
side n gold ring with tho inscription,
“Solitudeand Perseverance”—a piece of
seasonable advice to the faint hearted
dilettante, and a symbolic indication of
the means by which the virtuoso himself
had attained to fame.—Tagliehe ltumU

The Suit Mountain of rnlmtlne.
Palestine possesses u rcnmrkablo salt
mountain situated at tho south end of
the Dead sen. The length of the ridge Is
six miles, with an average width of three
quarters of a mile, and the height is not
far from fitM> feet. There are places where
the overlying earthy deposits /ire many
feet in thickness, but the mass of tlio
mountain is composed of solid rock snlt,
some of which is ns clear ns crystal. How
far this deposit of snlt extends below tho
surface of the ground, no one at present
knows. At some points, this ridge,
which is on the shore of tho Deud sea, ap
proaches very close to tho water, anil at
others it recedes until it is fifty or more
yards from it. Just hero the'wnter of
the Dead sea is much more salt than it is
at the north end, where the Jordan
enters the lake.
I his h/ilt is a government monopoly.
The same is true of the salt that is con
tained in solution in the Dead sea itself.
If Arabs or the natives of the country
were found getting salt from the shores
of the Dead sea or from this suit moun
tain, they would be arrested at once.
Most of the salt used in Hebron, Jerusa
lem, and elsewhere in this part of pules
tiine, comes from these sources, but it is
gathered under tho direction of govern
ment oillcers, nml tho revenue is sup
posed to go to the government.—United

ltlmiinrck and His Hells.
Apropos of the man of blood and iron,
a characteristic anecdote is being told
Just now. When a younger ami less
known man, ho one autumn secured a
suite of rooms without first inspecting
them. On Installing himself in them, he
at once noticed that there was no hell in
the apartment which lie made Ida study
ami work room, anil sending for t lie land
lord he asked him to supply tho omis
sion. “lint,” returned the landlord,
“Herr Von lllsmnrck 1ms already taken
the rooms the way they are, and it is ho
who must supply any deficiencies which
may seem lo him to exist.” “Oh, that is
your answer, is it?” inquired tho chan
cellor. “Precisely so.” answered his
host us he retired with a low how.
Scarcely live minutes later the sharp,
short sound of a pistol shot was heard in
the chancellor’s room, and just ns the
landlord rushed breathless into the apart
ment. JMsmarck, raising his hand, fired
ofT the revolver Mint was in it a second
time, point Idank at the opposite wall.
“Oh, it s all right, landlord,” ho said,
turning to the amazed man; “I'm only
letting my servant know that I want
him.” lie fore the sun set that day a bell
hanger had hastily but effectually sup
plied Herr Von Ilismarek’s apartments
with the bells that had been lurking.—

I have used Ayer’s
Sarsaparilla, in my
family, for Scrofula,
and know, if it is
taken faithfully it will
thoroughly eradicate
this terrible diseaso.
—W. F. Fowler, M.It.,
tlrecnville, Tcnn.
For forty years I
have sutTored with
Erysipelas. I have
t ried various remedies
f«*r my complaint, but
found no relief until
I commenced using
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.
After taking ten bot
tles of this medicine I
am completely cured.
— M. V. Amesbury,
Itockport, Mo.
I liavo suffered, for
years, from Catarrh,
which was so severe
that it destroyed my
appetito and weak
ened my system.
After trying other
remedies, without ro
liof, L began to take
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,
and, in a few months,
was cured.—Susan L.
Cook, StO1.) Albany st.,
Boston, Mass.
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla
is superior to any
blood purifier that I
ever tried. I have
tnken it for Scrofula,
Canker, and Salt
Kheuin, und received
much benefit from it.
It is good, also, for
a weak stomach.—
