Many other tests haye been proposed for its analysis, for instance, as to its density, its fusion point, its solubility In ether and other solvents; different acids, princi- pally nitric and sulphuric have been proposed, but none of these tests are reliable, and they are subject to all kinds of error. Theonly methods, therefore, adopted by the District chemist were the microscope and, in case of any doubt the ascertainment of the proportions of the fatty, luble acids, by a saponification of the butter id of a solution of caastie potash in alcotol, ing distilled water as soon as the saponifi- ation is complete, the fatty acids are then pre- pitated by hydrochloric acid and received on a filter, where they are washed with water, dried and weighed. Pure butter yields from 86 to 88 per cent of fatty acids, while pure “oleomar- warine,” tallow or lard’ yield 95 per cent of these insoluble, fatty acids, thus showing a difference of from 7 to 9 per cent. EXAMINING PAVEMENTS AND CEMENTS. The principal labors in the chemiat’s labora- tory were in connection with the public works of the District. Daily analyses were made and reported of the mixture of the asphalt pave- ments, of hydraulic cement, sand, stone and all other materials used in all kindsof paverrent laid, and on the sewers in process of building. The tables accompanying the report show the tensite strength of the various classes and brands of hydraulic cement used here. The analyses of the different brands show their chemical composition. The report concludes with the reiteration from former reports that the cements made in this vicinity are superior in quality and cheaper than the Rosendale and other domestic cements imported from New York, and that by active efforts of the manu- facturers here these brands of hydraulic cement are continually improving and rising in quality. During the year he reeeived from the Post- master General an official appointment as in- spector and superintendent, at a stated com- pensation, of the concrete pavements being laid on the ground floor of the general post office building, the work to be done after his regular office hours. After the work had been done and the compensation paid him the first con- troller of the Treasury notified the District Commissioners that under a misconstruction of the law by the Postmaster General the profes- sor had been illegally paid tor the above work, and they were directed to withhold the amount from his regular pay. To prevent any embar- rassment to the Commissioners he at once paid the amount into the Treasury, where it was received and placed to the credit of the Dis- trict, though paid him by the Post Office de- partment. ee A MAN WHO LAUGHS AT LOCKS, How Combination Safes Yield Up Their Secrets toan Expert.

Locks won't keep burglars out. Why, I can open any kind of lock that has ever been invented, without key or combination.” The speaker was a close-shaved, clean-cut, penetrating looking man. He stood in a lock- smith’s shop on 43g street, dangling the dial of a combination lock on the end of a bent wire. “They open if he looks at ’em,” said a youth, who stood by interestedly examining the bits of broken tock, old keys, drills and odds and ends of wire, brass and steel which were scattered abent the shop.

The replies given to the question show that opinions vary widely on the subject. There aré men “who predict that busi- ness here will go to smash if Cleveland elected. They say it will.“unsettle everything; that the government employes will be uncer- tain asto their fiite, officially, and will stop spending money. Others contend that Cleve- land’s election will improve business; that it will bring the biggest crowd here ever seen at an inauguration and that many will remain seeking office, and during their stay they must spend money. One of the residents of Wash- ington THINKS CLEVELAND'S ELECTION WILL BRING MONEY HERE. A business man here fora quarter of a cen- tury and the owner ot a great deal of real es tate, sald to a Star reporter: “If Cleveland’s election has any appreciable effect upon busi- ness it will be to improve it. Suppose govern- ment clerks are discharged and have to sell their homes, won't there be successors to them coming into office who want to_buy? I’m not uneasy about my property. I firmly believe Cleveland will be our next President. and yet within the last few days Ihave refused what most people might consider advantayeous offers for property right here in the neighborhood of DuPont Circle. As to business gen- erally, and Washington docs almost exclusively a retail usiness, it will be helped. There will be thousands and tens of thousands attracted here to see a democratic President, and they will all spend money. And they'll keep coming and continue to spend money long after the inauguration. Why, I have two old uncles over liere in Virginta who. have never visited Washington since the war. They have notified me that if Cleveland's elected they intend to come. I could’nt tell you how many of my relations aud triends have advised me they are coming if we elect our man, and I intend to take care of them all. | It’s all nonsense to talk about democratic suc- cess hurting Washington. It willbe the very best thing for us.” A DIFFERENT VIEW. Another prominent business man said: “If Blaine is beaten every government employe who owns property will begin immediately to try too sell it. Each one will think that it would be bad policy for him to wait until turned out of office to get rid of his property. so at the same time all of them will be offering to sell. ‘The natural result will be a depreciation of real estate. As to other lines of business, I don't know that it will make any difference. Among the merchants generally opinions seem to differ, being based, apparently, upon the political sentiment of the merchant expressing them. There are some who believe that Cieyeland as Presi- dent would be very conservative and that he would adhere to civil service reform. They think that if there isany flurry among clerks caused by fear of discharge, in the event of democratic success, that it will soon pasa by and confidence be restored. Some of the larzest merchants objected to being quoted, saying they had customers of all shades of political opinion, and they feared that amy expression as to the result of the election might be construed as tak- ing a part, as merehants, in politic: A MERCHANT'S OPINIO!

GEORGE BOMFORD It has been stated in Tok Stan that Messrs. | was a brother-in-law of Mrs. Barlow, having M. Ashford and John Ridout had filed for Char- lotte Bostwick and others a bill in equity against Emeline D. Lovett and others tor the sale of Kalorama, a piece of land on the east side of Rock creek, just north of P street, ex- tending beyond Woodley Lane road, bounding Roek creek on the north. Besides being a many as one of the favorite picnic grounds of the past, it 1s a spot of considerable historical interest. This land is composed of parts of Widow's Mite and Pretty Prospect. Widow’s Mite was surveyed for John Langsworti October 10, 1667, and granted to William Langsworth July 5, 1636. In the latter part of the last century An- thony Holmead was the proprietor. January 29. 1792, Holmead conveyed to Major Gustavus Seott 333¢ acres, embracing that portion of Widow's Mite on which stands the oid residence and vault. Major Scott was a man of means, owning extensive lands in Fairfax and other places in Virginia and Maryland, and was at the time one of the commissioners to lay out the city of Washington. He built the fine mansion upon it, which stiil stands on an eminence over- looking the city, and building a wali along the southern portion of it, skirting the stage road, now known as Boundary street, named the place Rock Hill. He occupied the mansion only a few years, for he died about 1£00. Through his executor, Elias B. Caldwell, the place was advertised and sold. Two small Pieces of the property had been previously. sold by Major Scott, one to John Leland, now the site of Lyon's mill, aud the other. which was added to the paper mill tract, to Edgar Patter- son, father of the late Dr. R. 8. Patterson. On September 27, 1803, Mr.Caldwell conveyed, as ex- ecutor of Major Seott, the tract, then containing 3g acres, to Col. Wm. Augustine Washington, a nephew and aide-de-camp of Gen. Washing- ton, and also one of the executors of the first President. ROBERT FULTON AT KALORAMA. Hon. Joel Barlow, who had for some years been abroad. returned to this country in 1805 and occupied the place, and his friend, Robert Fulton, took up his abode there with him. Ful- ton in an out building on the place made plans tor the first steamboat, and had it built, thelate Samuel Wells, a carpenter, doing the joiners work, and tle late Jacob Co‘clazer, assisted by the late°Richard Jones, (father of Major C. S. Jones), the iron work. The boat was launched intthe mill dam on Rock creek, and the experi- ment was pronounced a suecess. Bat Wash- ington on November 16th, 1807, conveyed the property known as Rook hill to the Hon. Joel Barlow, and it became known as Kalorama, by which name it has been called to this day. To obiai more frontage on Boundary street some additions were made by Mr. Barlow and additional ground was also purchased by him on the north- ward. In August, 1809, Josiah Speak conveyed to Barlow a small piece of ground, containing a little over an acre, fronting on Boundary street, and Mr. Holmead a piece adjoining. In the same month Mr. Hoimead conveyed to Mr. Barlow a piece of eighteen acres north of the tract purchased from Col. Waslington, which was aiterwards known as the Upper | Field. These tracts were bequeathed by Mr. | Barlow in his will dated at Algiers in 1797 to his widow, Ruth Baidwin Barlow, and by her in a will dated Paris, August 24th, 1818, it was bequeathed to Thomas Barlow, the oldest son of Mr. Barlow's brother. Mrs. Barlow died here | in 1818, and her will was admitied to probate ust 24th of that year. as Barlow, on November 25th, 1818, the property, then in the occupancy Middleton, to Hon, Henry Baldwin, j and May 5th, 1822, the latter conveyed one un- | divided halfof the land to Colonel Bomford, nd as pluci The adjoin Thomas W.

Devices Adopted to Escape Paying for Tichetm, HOW THE SMALL BOY IS PUT FORWARD TO VEX THE MANAGER—THE MAN WHO LEAVES HIS CANE WITH THE DOORKEEPER—TICKETS BOUGHT BY JOINT CONTRIBUTIONS—THE YOUNG FELLOW WHO FORGOT HIS POCKETBOOK. “T beg your pardon, sir, but is there any ob- Jection to my taking in my little boy with me 7” said a well-dressed man the other evening to a | at the window of the box office, and of whom | the speaker had Just purchased a ticket to the | orchestra circle. The muscles around the man- | ager’s lips tightened aimost imperceptibly, and | acold gleam shone in his eyes as he peeked through the orifice at the “little boy,” who was a well developed youth of ten or twelve, but he | answered politely, “ All right; here, you'd bet- | ter hand this check to the door tender and he passed out an additional ticket, which the ap- | plicant took and walked with his boy into the auditorium. “Do you have many applications of that character for tickets?” askea a STaR reporter who witnessed the occurrence. “Yes.” was the reply, “the children racket Is | one of the greatest frauds and nuisances which | we encounter. Many people don't realize that a half grown child takes up a chair just as much as an older person, and that when we pase in a. | child who is old enough to goto the theater, we are in reality giving aseat away. There is also another trouble connected with the matter. Just as sure as a man brings ina child once, he will endeavor to pass in two the next time, and if that is winked at he will comethree or four on you, and then get angry if you tell him politely than a line must be drawn somewhere.” “Is there much in the saying ‘once a dead head always a dead head?’” inquired Tue Star. “I should say so,” was theauswer. “Any man | who ever entered a theater without paying for it, regards hims-if thereafter as a privileged | character, and seems to become conscientiously | opposed to paying for his amusement. ates peculiarly in some instances.

He would feel as if he | had not done right by paying no admission, and he fell into the habit of treating the attaches of | the place to oysters, wine, cigars, and so-forth, | and he would never witness an entertainment without paying from two to five dollars for the benefit of the boys.

Ia Mr. Sumner’s eyes this was too itdecorous for endurance, and, too, with the p endowments bad given him in p. ature, he naturally supposed the traction about him superior to balls and society beaus. His self-esteem was wounded and his sense of propriety shocked, and pariicularly so when Mrs. Sumner chose a cavalier whe could attend her in society. “By the advice of friends Mr. Sumner en | dured his wife's whim for gaity, b | winter's surfeit would be sufficien t when | the actions of his wife provoked the voice of scandal he sought redress from official quarters, The youth whom Mrs. Sumner had chosen for ® favorite was one of those younger Euglish sons who are attached to the British legation that the position may give them opportunities in socity here which they could not otherwise have, M1.

Cheva- lier and O’Henry, which is as follows: Heat the milk to boiling; add a small quaatity of acetic acid diluted by two volumes of water: the casenm on a filter, wash the precipitate with pure wa after this treat the preelpitate with | ether, which,after evaporation, gives the weight of the butter; then the caseum is dried and | Weighed. The serum (“whey”) with the wash | water isevaporated over a water bath; thisgives the sugar of milk and soluble salts. The sazar can now be quantitatively determined by the cupro-potassia liquor or by the saccharimeter; the incineration of the caseine gives the weight of the insoluble salts. The difference between | the weight of the milk and the substances thus | found by the analysis gives the weizht of the | water. The general averave composition of mmilk is as follows: lc uravity, 1.6 residue (being ea: 3.6, butter 4.0: 4.7, salts 0.4) 1 The compositio ing to ditferent influences. one body, however, necessarily causes the in-| crease of another. exists between thesugarot milk and theeaseuin. So that when the analysis shows a marked diminution of sugar of milk, It should also show | he ap- | ofalbumen. In such case the natui a | conclusion Is that the alteration is due to a cer- | tain pathologie condition of the cow, or to the influence of bad food. But it, on the contrary, a diminution of all the constituents of the milk is found by the analysis, and there isan Increase of the quantity of the water, the adulteration Is evident. The microscope is also a great help in the examination of milk. The lactometer, or galactometer, is a kind of areometer which serves to indicate the quantity It also serves to indicate if milk has been skimmed or deprived of a certain ihe of its cream; but the use of this kind of instruments may lead to great errors; for instance. the skimmed milk or milk deprived of a certain quantity of its cream. and, consequently, in part of its butter, has a greater density.

Besides, | Blaine is a great admirer of Washington asa place of residence. He is not only largely | interested in real estate here himeelf, but he has induced other very wealthy gentle- men to locate and invest here, He isa great big man on every question, and his ideas of the growth of the national capital correspond with jews of other questions.

Fisher, another well-known real- estate dealer, said: “Washington has got beyond dependence upon the party in power. We have seen no evidehce of the market weakening yet. On the contrary, it has held its own remarkably well. As to the talk of property being sacrificed if Cleveland is elected, there is no need ot that at all. The properties of government clerks are generally small. and willreadily sell forall they are worth. Thereare plenty of personsright here now. to say nothing of the demand for houses that would be caused by newcomers under a change of administration, who would readily buy all the properties offered by office-holders at their full value.” Messrs. Duval & Marr, real estate dealers, were together when the reporter called at their lace of business. They said the election of Sleveland would not, in their opinion, burt the real estate market. They thonght it would in- crease the population ang create a much larger demand for real estate, They look for buiid- ing to go right on.,.no matter how the election may result. ‘There is more capital firm, “and as long as houses continue to bring the Interest on the investment that is now ob- tained buildiag will go right on.” Several builders who stood by coincided in this view. ‘ Neilsou’s American Divorce.

Hay- ing a ready pen, he composed a number of patriotic songs for the soidie Returning to Hartford, he embarked in the bookselling busl- ness, and established a weekly newspaper, the American Mereury.

He was ap- nted the ent of the United States at aud while there made the will Returnin ‘oO 8, he was joined by his friend, Robert’ Ful- ton, who was experimenting with sub-marine boats and torpedoes. and endeavoring to get the French government to adopt them. Mr. Barlow returned home in 1805, Mr. Fulton came here and, stopping with his friend, Barlow, worked on his inventioa—the application ot’ steam to propelling _vesseis. While residing here Mr. Barlow had as his guests Commodore (then lientenant) Decatur, sh from his heroic feats in the Mediterranean, and many of the leading men ot the day. In 1811 Mr. Barlow was appointed by President Madison United States minister to France and, receiving a summons from Napoleon to meet him In Poland, he started, but before the con- ference he was taken ill and died in December, 1812, at Wilna, near Cracow, and was there buried. Mrs. Barlow, who had accompanied her husband to Paris, returned here about the close of the war of 1812 and died here in 1818. The will of Mrs. Barlow bears date of August 24th, 1818, and bequeathed Kalorama to Thos. Barlow, nephew ot her husband, for life, and at his death to lis oldest son, and in the case of the death of Thomas without issue to Stephen Batiow for life and then to his oldest son. She charged Thomas Baldwin with the care of the slaves; left to Joseph Jackson, a black man, who had served her well, asmall house; #1,000 to educate poor black children. and #300 for the relief ot the poor, and directed that a monument be erected over her husband's re- mains in Poland. By a codicii dated February 14th, 1818, she directed that Thomas or Stephen Larlow.or who- ever was entitled to Kalorama, should set apart one acre of land, to include the family vault, and convey the same to some religious society.
