t ORDERS FR( RUSSIA. R»ldwln Works Making Locomotives for Rnaslan Railroads. The increasing abilitj of American manufacturers to compete successfully in the markets of the old world has just been demonstrated by the Bald win locomotive works of Philadelphia, whose managers are rejoicing in a large contract for engines for Bussian railroads. For many years the Bald win people have been able to sell their engines in Central and South America, in Australia and Japan and other dis tant conn tries, but they hare never been able to secure a sure foothold in European countries where the Eng lish type of locomotive has always been preferred to the American. This prejudice has at last apparent ly been broken down. Contracts just received by the Baldwin works call for forty locomotives,' twenty each for passenger and freight service. They will be delivered with the least possi ble delay and with the orders already on hand will keep the big Baldwin es tablishment busy for the rest of the year. The names of the Bussian railways for which the engines are to be built have been withheld by the firm, but as the government controls practically all the railways of that country the con tract may be said to have come from the government. This order, taken in connection with that given to the Bethlehem Iron company for large quantities of armor plate for Bussian warships, shows the friendly feeling of the czar for American manufactur- | era. The Baldwin locomotive works recently built several engines for the Trans-Caucasian railroad, which is also controlled by the Bussian govern ment. The forty more engines to be constructed will be of the heaviest type, and will bo Yanclain’s com pounds. As petroleum is used prin cipally for fuel in southern Bussia, the locomotives will be adapted for the burning of oil instead of coal.

Butcher’s linen, in a sort of medium blue, is one of the new materials for outing suits. Duck, in a mixture of silk and lineu, is used for this purpose, but suits made of this material Are expen sive. Pique is still the rage, and al though stiff and not always becoming, possesses a certain style of its own in its crisp, natty freshness. Changeable mohair is the latest thing for skirts and dress lining; it is an excellent substitute for silk when that material is found too expensive. This mohair is of light weight and sufficiently wiry to set out the dress. Bustle cambric is another excellent dress lining, and although of closer texture, resembles greatly the old old-fashioned paper cambric once used.

" —— per bo HEBOIO DOIff-T MADISON. The march of improvement in that part of Washington formerly known as Georgetown, and older by many years than other parts of the city, has compelled the destruction, of the tomb of Benjamin Homans, in the old Pres byterian Cemetery, in connection with whom Dolly Madison’s heroic feat in 1814 was performed. Homans was Chief Clerk of the War Department during the War of 1812, and at the time the British invaded the capital, upon his own responsibility, he sent two wagon loads of documents to the canal-boat of Captain Daniel Collins, and placed two armed soldiers on guard, telling them to allow no one to come on board. A little later a beau tiful lady, who proved to be Dolly Madison, drove down to the boat and gave one of the crew r trunk, telling him to take great care of it, and that he should be rewarded. Among the articles in the trunk was the canvas of Peale’s portrait of Washington, then hanging in the White House, but now in the Senate wing of the Capi tol. Then Homans gave the order to Sherwood to take the boat up the canal and not wait for the captain, who had gone to Washington. The boat, accordingly, was headed for a point near the Hominy House, a well- known establishment in those days, and in the barn there the documents were stored until danger was passed. That night the Capitol was burned, and the documents saved were among the most valuable belonging to the Nation. —Argonaut.

Fashion is anything but arbitrary tkis season, and, ii you except sleeves, is about as democratic a go- as-you- please dame as you ever encountered. There are the skirts for instance. Anything from a three gore to a nine may be worn, and its wearer counted “stylish,’’ if she has that indefinable something about her, the lack of whieh would render any gown not stylish. Then there are skirts with no gores at all. Just six or seven breadths of wide material sewed up and fastened to a baud. Of course, such dresses are of the sheerest ma terial, like organdy and swiss and mull, which do not take kindly ,to much “goring,” since they must be made up without lining. Most charm ing dresses are made of these thin ma terials, the skirts having only a wide hem, and the waists stopping under a crush belt of the same, are of plainly made overhanging blouse pattern with a bit of lace at the wrist and throat. Tho under slip is usually of some tinted material, satine or silesia, with a simple foot ruffle and a rounded throat with elbow sleeves. A thin gown like that is cheapness itself, and a child might launder it. It is only when the thin goods is made up with silk linings and perishable lace trim-, mings that such dresses become so amazingly costly. Very few women seem to - realize that a plainly made gown, which looks easy enough to be comfortable, and airy enough to he cool, while perhaps being neither, will give to - those who look at her the idea that she is both, and tho immediate tem perature is thereby lowered a degree or two. A tailor-made gown, by the very closeness of its fit and trimness of make, carries a suspicion of warmth, even though it be of tho thinness of lightweight woolens.^— Washington Star. *pHE turnpike road to people’s hearts I find, Lies through their mouths or I mistake mankind.

Some of the new black hose are shot with different colored silks. Some of the tan color are also shot with green, blue or rose. For country use and tenuis are some natty little outing boots laced with silk cord and finished with finely cor rugated soles. The newest setting for diamonds is White enamel. This enhances the brilliancy of the stone and the setting hardly shows. - ; Cashmere coloring, a soft blending of many, colors and a tendency to the designs found in old cashmere shawls, is just now popular. The favorite foot cqvering just now is the Juliet or Diana shoe, with a graceful instep, elastic sides and a shapely yet solid heel. The two extremes in size are evident this season iu the hats and bonnets, the one being very large and the other correspondingly small. Between these two extremes lie the toque shapes and small round hats that will be much worn for early spring. Green is a color that has recently laid hold on the fancy of the well dressed, yet it bids fair to enjoy con tinued favor, and for the afternoon at-home or a smart calling suit noth ing quite takes precedence of a well- built green velvet toilet. A visiting gown is of tan crepon with a silk thread in the warp. The bodice has a short circular yoke of yellow satin with butter colored lace over it. Three rows of narrow yellow ribbon velvet are run through the meshes of the lace to form the choker or crush. WORDS OF TYISDOV. There should be as little merit in loving a woman for her beauty a; p. man for his prosperity, both being equally subject to change.—Pope. Whatever is really desirable and honorable to know, it is also desira ble and honorable to know as com pletely and as long as possible.-— Baskin. There are prating coxcombs in the world who would rather talk than listen, although Shakespeare himself were the orator and human nature the theme.—Colton. It is ignoble to try to heap money on money. I would preach the doc trine of work to all, and to the men of wealth the doctrine of unremuuera- tive work—Theodore Roosevelt. The aim of the true artist is to give utterance to the pure impulses of art within him; to do good with these impulses, to make others happy, and to do good to humanity. — Fiegel. Let no man ever take into consid eration whether a thing is pleasant or unpleasant. The love of pleasure begets grief, and the dread of pain causes fear. He wno is free from tha love of pleasure and the dread of pain knows neither grief nor fear.— Buddha. Obstinacy is an affection immova ble, fixed to will, abandoning reason, which is engendered of pride ; that is to say, when a man esteemeth so much himself above any other that he re- pnteth his own wit only to be iu per fection, and contemneth all other cotinsel.—Sir T. Elyot. Befined policy ever has been the parent of confusion ; and ever will be so, as long as the world endures. Plain good intention, which is as easi- ; ly discovered at the first view e.s fraud j is surely detected at the last, is, let me say, of no mean force in the gov- 1 ernment of mankind. Genuine sim plicity of heart is a healing and ce- ; mentiug principle.—Edmund Burke, i How to Test a Thermometer, To tell whether a thermometer ac curately does its work invert the in strument. If the mercury does not fall to the end, or if it breaks into several small columns, the thermo meter contains air, and is inaccurate. If perfectly made, the slender thread should till the tube, or should break off at the bulb and fall to the end of the tube. There is another interesting fact about thermometers. Niue persons out of ten think the mercurial column round, but that is not the case. The thread of mercury in thermometers is flat. If it were round, the column could hardly be seen, for tho opening of the tube is as fine as the finest thread. Some eight or ten years ago a Boston manufacturer introduced the scheme of coating the back of the tube with white sizing. That makes the column of mercury stand out plain and distinct. Thermometers are cheaper and bet ter than ever before. You can noi^. buy a heat-maker for twenty-five cents, but a first-class instrument will cost you §2. A cheap instrument is like a cheap watch—it is unreliable. The reason for this is that a perfect ther mometer has a scale of its own. The cheap thermometer is made on guess work. Hence, you see a difference of two, three or five degrees between thermometers in the same locality on the same day. The most sensitive heat-maker is the radiometer, which was invented by a Mr. Crookes. It consists of four anna suspended on a steel pivot, rotating like a miniature wind-gauge, and the whole affair is inclosed in a glass tube from which the air has been exhausted. The light of a candle one or two feet away causes the arms to rotate. Quite as sensitive is tbe : thermopile, which is used to defect the faint nys of heat transmittsd from the moon and start to this cold world.—New York World. In His Second Century. Hale and hearty, despite his great weight of years, Jacob Urban, one of the inmates of the Lutheran Home for the Aged, at Mount Airy, yester day celebrated his 102d birthday. In honor of so rare an occasion the en tire population of the home united in a .celebration of the event, which also attracted to Mount Airy no iny friends of the vigorous centenarian. ’After eating a hearty dinner, Mr. Urban, who still possesses an excellent appetite, walked unassisted up a flight of .stairs to his bed room, where he sat for the balance of the day chatting pleasantly and cracking jokes with his many visitors. He is a regular attend ant at church service and is a devoted reader of his old-fashioned German Bible. He has been chewer and smoker of tobacco since his boyhood days. His general appearance indicates that in his youth he was a person of great physical powers. He has a kindly face and bright brown eyes, and ii able to read large print without the aid of glasses. He said yesterday that he had no great desire to live much longer. With the exception of a shortness of breath, his health is quite robust. The venerable centenarian was born in Eckertsweoker, Germany, on Au gust 5, 1794, and is the son of Jacob Urban, who died at the age of seventy- four. His mother was a vigorous woman up to a short time previous to her death. Urban learned the same trade as his father, that of carpenter, iu the town where he was born, and continued it until he emigrated to this country iu 1848. When fourteen years of age he was confirmed, and when thirty-three years of age he married Barbara Gerhart, by whom he had two children, both boys. When they grew to manhood they induced their par ents to emigrate to this country. Some years after their arrival the sons died and their mother’s death followed shortly afterwards. Mr. Urban married a second time in 1858, his wife being Caroline Weloher- line. In September, 1891, Mrs. Urban was killed in a railroad accident at Harrowgate, on tho Pennsylvania Railroad. While working on a build ing iu New York in 1857 Mr. Urban missed his footing and fell a long dis tance to tho. ground, receiving inter nal injuries, which have more or less given him trouble ever since. From ' present appearances, however, he may (ieleLrate several more birthdays be fore, he is called to his last resting place.—Philadelphia Record. HOUSEHOLD MATTERS. SOME USES OF X.BMOKS. ] Lemons rid the system of humors aid bile, and leave no evil effects. Vfeak, debilitated people oftentimes nay be greatly benefited by a free use (f them. Lemon jnioe should be di ll ted with water, or sweetened suffi- dently so that it will not produce a drawing or burning sensation in the throat. Clear lemon jnioe is very ir ritating; the powerful aoid of the ^lice will cause inflammation if the Use of it is continued any length of time. \ A bilious attack may be soon over come by taking the juice of one or >wo lemons in a goblet of water before retiring and in the morning before ris ing. Where taken on an empty stom ach the lemon has an opportunity to wuk on the system. Continue the use of them for several weeks. Lemons an an excellent remedy for pulmon ary diseases. When used for lung trouble from six to nine a day should b« used. More juice is obtained from lenons by boiling them. Put the lenons in cold water and bring slowly toa boil. Boil slowly until they be- gis to soften; remove from the water an l when cold enough to handle sqteeze until all the juice is extract ed strain and add enough loaf or emshed sugar to make it palatable, being careful not to make it too sveet. Add about twice as much water at there is juice. This prepar ation may be made every morning, or enough mey be prepared one day to last thiee or four days, bdt it must be keot iu a cool place. Lemon juice sweetened with loaf or enshed sugar will relieve a cough. For feverishness and an unnatural thirst soften a lemon by rolling on a haul surface, out off the top, add su gar and work it down into the lemon witli a fork, then suck it slowly. During the warm months a sense of coolness, comfort and invigoration can be produced by a free use of lem onade. For six large glasses of lem onade use six large juicy lemons; roll on a hard surface, so that the juice can be easily extracted. Peel And slica. Add sufficient sugar to sweeten and, and stir it well into the juice be fore adding the water. Hot lemonade will break up a cold if taken at the start. Make it the same as cold lemonade, only use boil ing water instead of cold water, and use about oue-half as much sugar. A very nourishing drink for a con valescent is to add a fresh-egg, beaten as light as possible, to a glass of strong lemonade. The lemon will de stroy the raw animal taste that is so offensive to some. A piece of lemon, or stale bread moistened with lemon juice, bound on a corn, will cure it. Renew night and morning. The first application will produce soreness, but if treatment is persisted it for a reasonable length of time, a cure will be effected. The discomfort caused by sore and tender feet may be lessened, if not en tirely cured, by applying slices ol lemons on the feet. To cure chilblains, take a piece of lemon, sprinkle fine salt over it and rub Has .feot wt^ll. Repeat if neces sary. Lemon juice will remove roughnesi and vegetable stains from the hands. After having the hands in hot soap suds rub them with a piece of lemon. This will prevent chappiAg and make the hands soft and white. Silverware can be cleaned brighter and will keep brighter longer when cleaned with lemon than with any other preparation. To remove mildew, take equal parts of soap—soft soap is best—aud fine starch, moisten with lemon juice, spread the paste thickly on both sides of the cloth, then expose to the sun. When the paste becomes dry soften it with more lemon juice. ’ To take out iron-rust, cover the spot with fine salt and saturate with lemon juice and lay ou the grass.

The great Carnegie steel works at Homestead, Pa., cover 300 acres of ground, represent a developed ma chinery force of 80,000 horse power, pay men five times the wages paid in Germany, turn out iu a day more freight than is carried on the entire Boston and Albany system, and pro duce, with 4,000 men, six times the output of the Krupp works iu Ger many, which employ 12,000 men. All the fuel used is natural gas, but for minor operations a central station op erates in various departments 390 electric motors. Money In the West. In 1868 the Cubans made an effort to secure their independence, and their struggle lasted about ten years. They were not defeated, but were induced to yield by promises of reform, which the Spanish government has never carried out, and this fact is the leading cause or the present formidable revolution. In the last rebellion Cespedes started with a force of 147 men, and in two days he ‘cas at the head of an army of 4,000. In a month he had 12,000 men and had captured several important towns. In the first three years Spain sent 100,000 soldiers to the island and eighty-two armed vessels, and yet tho insurgents were able to hold their own. At the end of three years the Spaniards had lost 68,000 men against 13,000 on the Cuban side in battle, but it should be stated that 43,000 Cubans were ar rested, many of whom died in prison. The Spaniards murdered thousands without regard to age or sex. Mexico and the South American re publics recognized the Cubans as bel ligerents, and in this country a Cuban league was organized with -the gover nors of all the states except one as vice presidents. Among the atrocities committed by the Spaniards was the murder of twelve students who were charged with desecrating the grave of a Spanish writer. The Spaniards also captured the Virginias, which sailed under United States colors to aid the insurgents, and fifty-three of the crew and passengers were shot at Santiago, including t^e commander, Captain Fry. Others would have been shot but for the threat of the captain of a Brit ish gunboat to bombard the city. The present rebellion appears to be even more promising than the one in 1868, aud it is doubtful whether Spain can send a force strong enough to suppress it. Coffee.

Bub a handful of coffee be tween the fingers. If it hardens or cakes, it is adulterated, probably with chicory. Another test is to place a sample of the coffee on the top of a wineglassfal of water. If part .of it floats and part of it sinks, it is un doubtedly adulterated. Pure coffee contains an oily enveloping substance that keeps out the water, or at least does not quickly absorb it.
