The application must be made only on the first days of Janu- ary, July and October, Judge Buffington, of Pittsburg, had the audacity to demand from at- torneys representing litigants where the money necessary to the settlement of a case came from. The attorneys assured the judge that the case was “ gettled in manner satisfactory to the parties involved,” but the stern judge replied that it was not * settled satis factory to the court.” The attorneys promised to give the information, but asked for time. Judge Buffington's action could well be imitated by judges turoughout the state whose courts are becoming a farce so far as punishing criminals is conocetned. . FRANKLIN'S KITE. The Philosopher's F Famous Experiment as Described by Himself, The famous kite experiment Is de scribed by Fraopkliin in a letter dated Oct, 10, 1752: “Make a small cross of light sticks of cedar, the arms so long as to reach to the four corners of un large, thin silk handkerchief when ex tended. Tie the corners of the hand. kerchief to the extremities of the cross, #0 you have the body of a kite, which, being properly accommodated with a tail, loop and string, will rise in the air like those made of paper, but be- Ing made of silk 1s better fitted to bear the wet and wind of a thunder gust without tearing. To the top of the up right stick of the cross is to be fixed a very sharp pointed wire rising a foot or more above the wood. To the end of the twine next the hand is to be tied a silk ribbon, and where the silk and twine join a key may be fastened. This kite is to be ralsed when a thun- der gust appears to be coming on, and the person who holds the string must stand within a door or window or un der some cover, so that the slik ribbon may not be wet, and care must be tak- en that the twine does pot touch the frame of the door or window. AS soon as the thunderciouds over the kite the pointed wire will draw the electric fire from them, and the kite, with all the twine, will be electrified and stand out every way and be at tracted by an approaching finger. And when the raln has wet the kite and twine you will find the electric fire stream out plentifully from the key on the approach of your knuckle” OLD TIME TH EATERS, Way House and Stage Lighted In Garrick’s Time. It must have often struck people when reading of the performances in the elghteenth century how it was that the lightning was contrived. The pow- er of oll lamps was limited enough. Theaters like Drury Lane and Covent Garden were of enormous size, There were ng footlights, at least until about the middie of the eighteenth century, and they were the humble “floats,” dim enough. Yet there was ample light to observe expression and play of fea- tures, so necessary in Interpreting the fine old comedies of character. Now- adays the stage is one blaze, It is lit- erally bathed and suffused in light There are no shadows, and yet it might be sald the amount of necessary light is no more than there used to be and is not nearly as satisfactory, How was it then? In the theaters of Garrick and eariler days the stage was really lit by four great chandeliers, which hung directly over the heads of the actors from the arch of the proscenium and just out- side the curtain. When the play was over, these were lowered slowly, a sig: nal for the audience to depart. These chandeliers furnished a goodly amount of light on a circular zone Immediately below them. he actors’ faces and fig- ures were jit in the natural way, as the sun would light them, but the rest of the stage was comparatively dark or gloomy. ~Blackwood's. come The Were “E Pluribus Unum.” We are indebted to John Adams for our national motto, *“E Pluribus Unum.” While he was minister to England Sir John Prestwick suggested it to Mr. Adams as a good motto to In- dicate the union of the colonfes. It was submitted to congress and adopted by act of congress June, 1782. The eagle In its beak bears a ribbon on which is the motto. In the early days of its use the eagle bore also in its talons a bundle of thirteen arrows, but when, In 1841, a new seal was made to take the place of the old one, which had become worn, only six Arrows were placed in the talons. Whether this change was ordered by law or not is not known. The old Latin motto was in use in DLogland as far back as 1780 on the Gentleman's Magazine, Roasting Coffee. In Norway, where superb coffee is made, a bit of butter is added to the beans while they are roasting in the covered shovel used there for that purpose. In France as well a plece of butter the size of a walnut is put with three pounds of the coffee beans, and also a dessertspoonful of powdered sugar. This brings out both flavor and scent and, moreover, gives the slight caramel taste which will be re- membered as a pleasing part of French coffee. The Bloody Meadow.
