21. The Mexican government Is buying large quantities of supplies iu Laredo 'just now for the army of 6,000 men concentrated in the last few weeks on this immediate frontier to suppress the Garza movement. The county judge of Webb county was furnished by the Mexican consul to-day with an official list of the names of about 40 Mexicans who are known by tho Mexican government to have been engaged in the movement. In the list appear several names which are also on the criminal docket of the district court.

Tho British schooner Mary Rogers of Cape Breton came into the capes during the driving snow and anchored outside the lower end of the breakwater. At daylight her' chain broke and she struck on the stone pile, a total wreck. Her crew reached the stone pile in safety except William Landry who sustained injuries which soon caused death. The Lewis life-saving creW took the survivors off. The weather was intensely cold and the sufferings of tbe shipwrecked crew while awaiting the arrival of the rescuers were awful.

Col. R. G. Ingersoll was the guest of the Unitarian Club, of New York, Friday night, and made the speech of the evening.

A cubic foot of newly fallen snow weighs five and one-tiaif pounds, and has 12 times the bulk of an equal weight of water. A York man who was liberated from a hospital a few days ago, danced so violently for joy that he burst a blood vessel and died. It is probable that Cornelius Drebbel, a Hollander, in the year 1630 first discovered a method for indicating changes of temperature by means of a glass bulb.

The passenger cars ot the world are capable of seating 1,500,000 people, and upon the freight cars could be loaded the weight of all the pyramids of Egypt, and all the state capitol buildings in the United States beside. The members of the Japanese Club in New York City issue a newspaper. It is printed on a hektograph, and only a small number of copies are made. It is intended chiefly for tho intormation of their mends at home. The bronze statue of Liberty which has crowned the dome of the Capitol building at Washington Tfor the past 29 years is 19 feet 6 inches highand weighs 14,985 pounds.

The figure was cast in five sections, the heaviest being of 4,740 pounds weight. -The opal was onco looked upon asa thunder stone, and although many women now appear to have strong superstitious prejudice against wearing one, it was in by-gone days held in the highest estimation, for it was supposed to combine the virtues of several other gems. Swords of prehistoric and even much later times were often of bronze, but for many ages steel has been the material exclusively employed.except that occasionally some other material has been used for sword3 designed for state occasions and pageants. The chief element in the composition of a tear is water, but with water is associated minute proportions of soda, phosphate of lima-, phosphate of soda and mucus, and when seen under the microscope a tear after evaporation looks like a very small fish bone owing to the salines forming themselves into lengthened crossiines. Sir Ernest Lyon, the young English diplomat who died in Belgrade a few days ago, lost his Hfo as a result of a wager.

Being an excellent rider the young man made a bet with several friends that he could reach the station Ripani, about 12 miles from Belgrade, sooner on horseback than a train leaving the city at the name time. Sir Ernest lost the hot and his life, having been thrown from his horse. Boston has a Dante scholar of local repute who follows the nnscholastic but progressive occupation of an electric car conductor, and cnats about the gloomy Florentine with'women on their way to their Dante class. Boston papers "point with pride" to his learning, but in doing so they rarelely confess the degeneracy of the old Fav state, which a few years ago had in Kiihu Burritt a humble blacksmith whose erudition was really something to marvel at. One of the first settlers of Wayne county, was John Swingle, who settled in South Canaan nearly 100 years ago.

He came from Germany. His wife presented him with a child every two years for 50 years, and was only 63 when she died. When Swingle died tne 23 children were all living. Eighteen of them married and all had large families. One of the children; Mrs.

Catharine died a few davs ago in Dunmore in her 90th year. She was the last but two of the 25, two brothers being ahve.both octogenarians. Besides them she is survived by six grandchildren and 18 greatgrandchildren. It. is estimated that tne descendants of John Swingle in Pennsylvania numbered over 600.

It was largely the fashion in the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries with ladies of wealth to have their watches richly incrusted with precious stones.

On the upper portion of the case was a Tudor rose of crimson and green translucent enamel, and on the margin crimson and oluo leaves and fruit iu enamel. The balance wheel was protected by a gilt cock. The newspapers are ioud in their praises of the artistic singing heard at Lew Dockttader'a minstrels.

Verilt a story grows in the tellinar. When the report of Secretary Blaine's last attack of indigestion reached Dee Koines, he was dead. The mistake was not discovered until all flags upon public buildings had been placed at half mast. Isn't it about time for the worthy members of our Board of Health to have another meeting and discuss the advantages of smoke consumers for Akron and a city garbage burner? Kothing like making a good start in tbe first month of the year. CixciMATT.

reporters are kicking themselves. Gen. Alger's private car managed to creep into their city on Wednesday and Gen. Alger held a conference lasting several hours with ex-Gov. Foraker and not a newspaper man in the city knew anything about it until all was ever.

v. interest in Akron that the famous Carter will content, which has occupied, such a conspicuous place in the courts of Sacramento, has finally been settled and that the belligerent wives hare compromised and to all intents inJ purposes are at peace once more. Senator Sherman is the father of iwo bills now awaiting the pleasure of the U. S. Senate one providing for a IICO.000 Government building at Mansfield and the other for an equally ex- pensive cue at Zanesviiie.

Meanwhile Akron nutst reat content with a 575,000 appropriation. Does that look exactly flgtit? JMassfield has a population of and Zanesville a population of The combined yearly receipts ot their two pojtoCices do not equal those of Akron. Will some one kindly point out the justice of giving Zanesville and Mansfield public buildings worth while one valued at $75,000 is regarded as good enough for A Jascarv 21 i3 the date and Chicago the place selected for the next Democratic JCational convention. This is just two weeks after the dftte of the Republican convention in Minneapolis. Wait until Kovember 1, however, when the pro-ceMon ttops, and if the Democratic party 13 not more than two weeks in tho rear, then there is no virtue in present signs of the times.

Pmsr.uKG properly holders are somewhat disturbed micd at figures disclosed by assessors returns. They do not question the fact- that their property is more valuable now than it was 10 years ago, but where valuations are placed SCO per ceci. higher than on the previous schedule owners are more tban willing to see a cold cash demonstration as to the truth of the appraisers' judgments. Os Widsesdat morning the New Tork Sun's Washington correspondent made a great fuss over the fact that ilr. Blame had been compelled to leave the regular Cabinet meeting, broadly intimating that the sudden departure was due to a conflict of authority between President Harrison and his Secretary ot Stale.

Wednesday even-tog Mr. Blaine entertained the President and other distinguished gudsts at dinner. Strange isn't it Philip J. Boeder, the Standard sewing machine agent, who was interviewed in Akron last week on affairs in Mexico, has been talking to Pittsburg reporters. He gives them the information that the leader of the Mexican revolutionists is no more of a pretentious individual than a broken down tewing machine agent who robbed his employers and skipped with the funds.

Poor Garza! Here is another soft impeachment which he has no opportunity either to adroit or to deny. Ohio's Legislature yesterday went on record almost to a man as being opposed to the present method of electing United States Senators. This shows that the members of tbe Ohio House heeded the object lesson presented by the recent Senatorial struggle in this State. For if there was one thing which that contest demonstrated beyoud all others it was the of some radical change in the system now Ifot only has Ohio famished a lesson for iier om oitizens, but let us hope tnat alt otr.or states in the Ucion wiil profit by it as well.

For years the practice of smuggling valuable paintings into the United States has been carried on with impunity by unscrupulous dealers to the serious digadvan. tage of those who try to conduct their business on an honest basis.

This seizure ia but preliminary to others which will follow, for the Treasury Department has determined to wage a vigorous campaign against all offenders and wipe them out entirely if such a thing is possible. OHIO LAW MAKERS. Proceedings of llotb. Crauches of the Legislature. Coixmbtjs, Ji.n.
