Considerable attention has been given recently by the Treasury Department to the elimination of an evil which was. assuming large proportions, and which had. become seriously annoying to honest American manufacturers of cutlery. The. practice of having American trademarks stamped on the blades of foreign made knives and scissors hus been peremptorily prohibited by an order of the Secretary of the Treasury. This recent order was designed to put in active force section 11 of the new tariff law, which says in effect that no imported article shall bear a name or trade-mark which tends to the belief that the said article was made in th United States. Within the past few years American manufacturers of cutlery have had to compete with an enormous traffic in cheaply made goods brought to this country from abroad and sold widely on the strength of bogus American trade-marks. The alertness of the Government examiner in the local appraiser’s department is now making short work of this particalar kind of deception. E —_ — TRUE AS GOSPEL. Last eveuing’s Grass Valley Tidings says: “The Trustees of Grass Valley and her twin sister, Nevada City (ifthe latter will allow the connection), are} the <object of much criticism at the present time and their paths are not altegether strewn with roses. While one Board is trying to satisfactorily settle the question of a defaulting official, the other is trying to build a new water works without causing the people to be divided against themselves. As the men on the Board of Trustees are usually intelligent, level-headed men, the best way for them to do is to decide according to their best judgment and listen to, complaints afterward.” Tae Baldwin Locomotive Works: of Philadelphia has just reveived an order from Egypt for fifteen heavy locomotives. It is noticeable that the Egyptian State Railway is under British control, but our locomotives are not only superior to and cheaper than those built in England, but our builders can furnish them on shorter notice. The free trade plan was to have all such things.as locomotives builtin England, but our policy of protection has changed all that, to the great advantage of locomotive users. A PartiaMenTary cricket team, consisting of five lords and fourteen “M, Ps,” and with Attorney-General Sir Richard Webster as captain, proposes to make a “professional” tour of the world next summer. The Bulletin sporting editor is safe in predicting ‘\ that if this lofty: and lordly crowd should care to tackle a baseball game, the back streets of almost any American city could furnish a team that would lay them out in good shape. THE FLOWER festival season has arrived. Los Angeles, San Jose and San Rafael are all. preparing for carnivals and a number of other interior cities are figuring on similar entertainments. Nevada City will in the meantime manage to enjoy herself hilariously with the gatherings of the Grand Army and the Native Sons. ee ,——_—_____.__.

From. about -the ninety-sixth to the ninety-ninth meridian there isa strip of about 250 milesin breadth which Majcr J. W. Powell calls the ‘‘subbumid’’ tract. Within it there isan annoal precipitation sufficient to insure crops, buf the precipitation’ is so diaproportionately bestowed and at sxch irregular intervals. throughout the year that the seasons of successful farming ure interspersed with long and disastrous droughts. Reliance, therefore, upon moisture directly falling from the clouds is extremely hazardons, and, unsupplemented by waters from stream distributicn, it is not generally reposed. But west of the ninety-ninth and east of the one bandred and. twenty-first meridian, throughout the whole breadth of the country, from Canada te Mexico, there is a district in which nothing needing moisture greater than that required by the artemisia or the cactus can be planted and grown. It isa region aggregating about 1,340,000 square miles, a territory larger than Arabia, as large as and not more arid than the combined areas of Persia and India, 1 z ei bk f : i g 3 3 id iz with their united populations of 250,000,000 souls.—Lippincott’s MagBe sure you get SCOTT’S Emulsion. azine. 2 I druggists; soc. and $1.00, ‘ BOWNE, Chemists, New York, The only formality which the . swain has to go through to get the hand of his promised one is to kill a tapir, an act by which he proves that he will be capable of supporting his prospective family. The death of a tapir under such conditions is quite an event. The whole tribe assembles. at the carcass, and a acene of gluttony begins that does not cease till nothing is left but the skin and bones of the ‘‘great beast.’’ That is the only ceremony of marriage. The Caingua is usually monogamous, but polygamy is allowed. Marriages of relatives are carefully avoided, After confinement the young mother has a rest of'a few days before resuming: her serv ile task. She carries the newborn infant in ascarf or sort of little hammock alung over her shoulders. She does not think of weaning it fora year and a half or two years, while the child bas already been exercised in arms with miniature bows. Ideas of cleanliness seem foreign to the women as well as to the men, and it is a lucky chance that will induce them to comb.their magnificent heads of hair.—Dr.Machon in Appleton’s Popular Science Monthly.
