FREELAND, PA., JUNE 17, 1895.
A Word to Country Girls.
The constant influx of girls from tho
country into our large cities brings
with it portentous dangers and evils.
Dreaming of self-support and an easy
time, good wages, a better wardrobe
and more congenial companions; daz
zled with the vision of city amuse
ments, and hoping perhaps to find n
marriageable partner, und settle down
into a comfortable city homo, thou
sands leavo tho farm or tho village, and
flock to the metropolis. Ilere many of
them confront a situation far different
from that which they -imagined in ad
vance of their actual experience of city
life. Tho wages they get are meager;
their lodgings aro fur from comforta
ble; they have no home life; they faco
new temptations and trials, and their
life becomes one of hardship and
trouble. In tho store, factory, shop or
office they are beset with danger and
annoyance, while all about them arc
pitfalls spread for unwary feet. Some
of them, with unusual aptitudes
for stenography, typewriting and
kindred occupations, or with fine
executive gifts, make their way
to the top, and secure first-class
posts; hut a great multitude struggle
and almost starve on five or six dollars
a week. This latter class are not able
to save any money; a week's illness
brings them into debt, and a month
without employment renders them ob
jects of charity. llow much better it
would be for most of them were they
to stay at home, help In the household,
or accept such work us might bo avail
able on the farm or in the village. Our
large citios now contain thousands of
girls In a sorry plight, either without
employment or struggling for bread—
girls who might have remained in com
fort at home, or who could have found
work of some 6ort in a country town to
i support them, with less cost of
strength, nerve power and vital forco
[ —to say nothing of the dangers which
now beset them in the city. What a
kindness it would be to thousands who
are heedlessly planning to rush city
ward "to find something to do," could
a persuasive word reach them and sayt
"Better stay at home I"
THE government is endeavoring to
secure possession of some five thousand
letters of great historical interest und
public value owned by a member of tho
Jefferson family residing near Char
lottesville, Va., to whom they were
handed down by inheritance from
Thomas Jefferson. Tho owner has re
cently offered tho entire collection for
sale for the sum of two thousand dol
lars, and tho state department is afraid
that it will be taken at that price be
fore the federal government can securo
it. The first commission of Mr. Jeffer
son as secretary of state is tho paper in
the collection most desired by the de
partment, but it would also liko to se
cure official communications signed by
Napoleon and various sovereigns, and
a number of personal letters to Jeffer
son from tho duke of Wellington,
Washington, Franklin and other dis
tinguished men.
THE rhetoric of tho Utah constitm
tlonal convention is often amusing.
For instance, one of the delegates got
this off tho other day: "There is an in
surance company doing business hero
that has ft building that cost more than
three million dollars, and has that
much moro in assets. And there was
a man in this town who paid that com
pany over five thousand dollars, who
has beon dead for more than two years,
and that man isn't able to collect tho
insurance." Then a delegate, evidently
an Episcopalian, was so wicked as to
respond cynically: "Certainly not; how
could a dead man collect anything, un
less It was tho collect for tho dead?"
*'Tales from Town Topics."
The .Tunc number of "Tales from
Town Topics" presents as its leading
feature a daintily-told story of metro
politan social life, by L. 11. Bickford,
entitled "A Very Remarkable Girl."
which is a very delightful piece of light
summer reading. Despite the spirit of
airy cynicism that pervades the story,
the contrast that it affords between
sterling strength of character and the
emptiness of fashionable life is admir
able. Cynthia Platte, a girl full of tho
life and vigor of a Western bringing-iip,
but brilliant in inlnd, captures the read-,
er's affections at once, and there aro
other characters equally well drawn,
and quite as entertaining. Following
the novelette comes the customary ar
ray of tales, sketches and bits of humor
ous and sentimental verse gathered from
early numbers of Town Topics. Copies
can be obtained from Town Topics Pub
lishing Company, 208 Fifth avenue, N. Y.
ALL ABOUT NICARAGUA.
Tho Little Central American Re
public Is Impecunious.
Its Natural Resources, However, Are Said
to Be Exceptionally Rich—Finances
of the Government In Poor
Condition.
The total population of tho republic
of Nicaragua is put by tho best author
ities at 810,000. Of* the inhabitants of
the country, one-tenth belong to unciv
ilized aboriginal tribes, while tho main
body are classified ns "Indians," Zam
bos or mulattoes, negroes, mixed races
and Europeans, the latter, according to
tho Now York Sun, being but few in
number.
The area of the republic is only about
49,500 English square miles. There are
few towns, and nil of them, with two
exceptions, are 6mall and rude. Tho
population of Managua, the capital, is
18,000, and that of Leon, formerly the
capital, 25,000. Tho town of Corinto is
tho principal port on the Pacific, and
the lndino element (a mixture of white
and Indians) predominates there. Tho
most important industry of the inhab
itants of Nicaragua is the raising of
cattle, tho hides of which aro exported;
and among the other exports are coffee,
bananas, sugar, indigo, cocoanuts, ca
cao, Brazil wood and cedar. The head of
cattle number over 400,000. The greater
part of the imports are from England,
and the greater part of the exports are
to tho United States. There are over
100 mines worked by American compa
nies, in nearly all of which gold is
found mixed with silver, and in a few
silver mixed with copper. A good deal
of American capital has been sunk in
them.
Nicaragua is especially rich in valu
able woods, the mahogany, rosewood,
granadillo. and ronron, also medicinal
trees, besides other commercial trees,
including the castilloa claatica , from
which India rubber is made; tho
gutta perc'ha tree, and several trees
which produce gums. Wild animals,
monkeys, alligators, lizards and snakes
abound, besides tropical birds to the
number of 150 species. Mosquitoes
swarm in all damp places, and thero
are fierce wasps. Tho foraging ants
move in large armies. The seas, rivers
and lagoons arc alive with every varie
ty of tropical fish. •
There aro numerous volcanic peaks,
u few of which are still active, but
GEN. SANTOS ZELAYA, PRESIDENT OF
NICARAGUA.
most of them have long been extinct.
Tho last great eruption was that of
1835, when Coseguina scattered its hot
ashes over a circle 1,500 miles in diame
ter. Near some of the extinct craters
are vast beds of lava and scoria) and
numerous vents called infer nillos, which
emit smoke and sulphurous vapors. On
the Pacific coast tho soil is very rich,
and the climate Is essentially that of
tho central zone; but the amount of
cultivated land is small in proportion
to the arable area of the country.
Maize, the principal food of the natives,
is very prolific, and fine fruits and
vegetables grow In abundance.
The form of government is constitu
tional and republican. Thero is a con
gress of two branches, tho senate and
the house of representatives, the mem
bers of both of which number only
thirty-nino, who ure elected under tho
Niearaguan system of universal suf
frage. The president now in power,
Gen. Santos Zclaya, was elected in tho
Niearaguan way last year, and holds
office for four years. He has a council
of four ministers, who have charge of
that number of departments of the
government.
The active army of Nicaragua con
sists of 2,000 men, with a reserve of
10,000, besides a nominal militia force
of 5,000. The active troops are poorly
equipped and appareled, and the re
serves arc unfit for any service in the
field against a European force.
There are about 100 miles of railway
open in the country, which were built
at a heavy cost. One line extends from
Corinto, a distance of 58 miles, and an
other from the capital to Granada, 83
miles. A number of concessions for
new lines of greater length have been
granted to contractors, who arc blamed
for delaying their construction. Thero
are over 1,700 miles of telegraph lines.
There are a fair number of schools for
the population.
Tho finances of the government are
always in bad condition, on account of
the disturbances that often prevail, and
in many years the expenditures for the
army have been beyond the total re
ceipts. Two-thirds of the total annual
revenue are derived from government
monopolies on spirits, tobacco and gun
powder, and the remainder chiefly from
import duties and a tax on slaughtered
cattle.
For Piercing Pro;-lons Stones.
The smallest holes pierced by modern
machinery arc one-thousandth of an
inch in diameter. This drilling appar
atus, which was the invention of one
John Wenstronm, is designed to muko
22,000 revolutions per minute, and is
used in boring sapphires, rubies, dia
monds and other gems.
Gooil Way to Test Eggs.
When four ounces of salt arc dis
>olvpd in forty ounces of water, an egg
a day old will sink to the bottom; one
two days old will float near the top,
and one five or xnoro days old will pro
ject above the surface more and more
as it becomes older. w
Miss JANE ADDAMS.
Recently Appointed Sanitary Officer by ihc
Mayor of Chicago.
Maj'or Swift, of Chicago, lias ap
pointed Miss Jaiio Addams, of that city,
as sanitary policeman of the Nineteenth
ward, the duties of which office are to
look after tho collection and removal of
garbage and see that tho contractor
performs his work properly. Miss Ad
dams putin a bid for removing* garbage
herself during the administration of
the recent mayor, but her bid was dis
regarded. Her new appointment, while
not giving her the chance to do the
work herself, will enable her to watch
it and show how efficient a woman may
become in overseeing municipal work.
Miss Addams has made a reputation
as the originator and manager of the
'!
MISS JAKE ADDAMS.
most successful social settlement now
in existence. Placed in the most de
graded part of Chicago, it has ac
complished a remarkable work in amel
iorating the social condition of the
people surrounding it and in infusing
some sweetness, beauty and light into
the lives of many depraved beings.
Miss Addains has discovered in her
work that unclcanlincss is a leading
cause of much of the misery and disease
in the neighborhood of Hull house and
that negligence on the part of city of
ficials is largely responsible for this un
cleanliness. Contractors for cleaning
streets and removing garbage have ob
tained their jobs through political
"pulls," and the men appointed to
watch them gained their places by tho
same means. Between the two the
streets and alleys have been allowed to
grow filthy, and disease, death and
misery have followed in its train.
It is to correct this condition of
tilings that, Miss Addams has accepted
a position which is now probably filled
for the first time by a woman. Her
experience will bo watched with much
interest, and if she succeeds there will
he other women ready to follow her
example. There is undoubtedly much
work in tho care and cleanliness of
cities that women can perform us well
or better than men. Municipal house
keeping is in many respects only do
mestic housekeeping on a large scale.
And there is no ono who knows so well
when a city is clean and how it con be
kept so as a tidy housewife. Dirt to
her is an abomination, and nn unswept
street is as offensive as an unswept
house floor. She can no more tolerate
uncollected or badly collected garbage
than she can a slovenly kitchen. By
natural taste and training most women
are tho enemies of dirt and therefore
tho most efficient dirt eradicators.
Cleanliness is, then, says the Phila
delphia Press, a department in munici
pal housekeeping which seems to he
especially adapted to the indication
and capacity of women.
FORGOT HIS OWN NAME.
But Jefferson Remembered That 110
Playod Illp Van Winkle.
Some of the most amusing stories of
the tricks of memory arc those which
illustrate the facility with which proper
names escape tho recollection. They
elude you like greased pigs. "Then I
had it on the end of my tongue," and
"I recall your face, hut for the life of
mo, I can't place you," are so common
ly heard as to excite 110 comment. "By
the way, how do you spell your name?"
inquired a young lady of an old nc-
JOSEPH JEFFERSON,
quaintance. Sho took this way of re
calling, without embarrassment, a
nayio that unaccountably escaped her
recollection. "S-m-i-t-h," he replied, to
her confusion. It is related to Joe
Jefferson that ho was one day intro
duced to Gen. Grant, an event that
naturally Impressed him strongly.
Later in the day, according to the New
York Mail and Express, he got into an
elevator of the hotel at which they
were both stopping. A short heavy-set
man also got in, lifted his hat to Jeffer
son and made some remark. "I beg
your pardon. Your face is familiar to
me, but I cannot recall the name," said
the actor. Gen. Grant courteously
gave his name. "I got off at tho next
floor, for fear I should ask him if ho
had ever been in the war," Jefferson
said in relating this story. Worse than
that, he once forgot his own name. 110
had gone into a post office at some
small resort where ho was unknown
and asked tho clerk if there was any
mail for him. "What's the name?"
asked the clerk. "Name? Oh, yes,
certainly. Why, let's seel I play Rip
Van Winkle, you know." "Jefferson,"
said the astonished and delighted
clerk. "Yes, Jefferson, thanks," 110
answered, politely, as he received his
mail and bowed himself out.
