Monday, on a farm near Emans, Pa., a corps of harvest hands threw down their rakes, seythes and forks and quit work, all because a buxom woman had undertaken to drive a reap- ing machine in the attire of a man. In that part of Pennsylvania it is a common thing to see farmers’ wives and daughters in the hay and grain fields participating in the lighter por- tion of the harvest work. Driving a mower or reaper is generally considered easy work, but it is done exclusively by men on account of the danger a woman wouid incur in getting her skirts caught in the wheels or knives of the machine while intent in handling the reins, This particular farmer's wife, however, is plucky and original. as well as buxom, and she determined to show “the boys” that she could master the problem of woman's proper work. So she rigged herself up in a snug-fitting blazer and a pair of her husband's trousers, with a broad-brimmed harvest hat shadiug her brown ringlets, and lightly mounted the reaping ma- chine. | Having mapped out her course she | eyes to drive across the field and mow a road swath of griin. At first the harvesters, farm hands, men, boys and girls were aston- ished at the sight, and then they thoughtit was iunny.

Fifteen men accordingly threw down their im- plements where they stood and walked off the Held, shaking their fists ungallant!y at the fair driver of the reaping machine.

UNCLE JERRY IS HAPPY. Hs: No Longer Has to Polish Up the Handle of the Big Front Door. Unele Jerry Smith, the handy man of the ad- ministration, is exceedingly happy just at pres- ent. He is generally an uncomplaining sort of person, going about his many and varied duties at the White House with a cheerful alacrity that is hindered only by the severe “rhe uma- tiz that sometimes renders him unable to do all thet he would like to accomplish, But the President nearly broke Jerry's heart when he issued his order, several weeks ago, that the national flag should be raised on the White House daily from sunrise to sunset. It was not the actual labor of hoisting or lowering the flag that bothered Jerry. He was willing envugh todo that, What hs objected to was the fre- quency with which this new duty took him through the great garret of the house, which, in his imagination, he has peopled with a per- fect twelfth census epniewon: of citizens of a ghostly character. Jerry DOESN'T LIKE GHOSTS. He objects to them on principle, either as friends, acquaintances or enemies, and he used to regard the White House attic asa sort of earthly purgatory,a place of transitory punish- ment, while he was going to and from the roof. But he has at last begun to like it, after a fash- ion, much as a boy likes to lie alongside a rail- road track and see how near he can crawl to @ passing train without being hurt. He has even come to regard it with the fondness of fear and he seems to enjoy the shiver thatthe long, dai shadows inthe many nooks and corners give him as he goes on hiserrands, At any rate, he pretends to like the place, but it ts rather strongly suspected that Jerry is muking a vir- tue of necessity. 4 BURDEN LIFTED FROM HIS SROULDERS, But Jerry is now genuinely’ happy. It used to be one of his duties to exercise his muscles and artupon the huge door knob and beil handle on the front door, which required a high polish tully twice a week, after having been tarnished by the nand of the it Amer- ican public as it called upon its Chief Magis- trate to pay its respects and to ask political favors. Now Jerry, although a diligent darkcy, never liked to polish door knobs. There waa not enough imagination about the work. It lacked the elements of soul, which he found in his other duties, ‘and smelt too strongly of ammonia. At last this burden has been lifted from his shoulders, it is thought, as a sort of kind compensation by the President for the extra work that was put upon him by the flag ordér. ‘he other day it was Jerry's delightful tusk to unscrew the knob and bell handle from the door and take them down to a worker in such things, who gave them a brilliant plating of gold—rea', shining yellow gold—that makes them glisten and shine without the least touch of Jerry's magical polishing cloths and is a joy forever—to Jerry. A HINT TO SMOKERS, Keep Your Good Cigars for the City and Use Two-fers at the Seashore. The time has come for the summer resort joke and summer resort gossip,so the follow- iug experience of a Washington druggist, re- vealed to a Star reporter, may be considered seasonable, He said he had been going to the seashore every summer and had fallen into the habit of taking with him a box of the best cigars that his case in the store afforded, being a moderate smoker with a taste for a zood weed. But up to acertain time he found it difficult to obtain any enjoyment out of his costly tobacco, finding that a8 soon as he got near the air of the ocean the cigars began to droop and wilt, as the smoker’s phrase goes, and their draught became difficult and the process of pulling them became an altogether tedious operation. One day he was smoking one of them with good deal of difficulty on a chair on the beach when agentieman sitting near accosted lim saying that he had noticed the trouble he was having with his cigars and that they were prob- ably of an imported brand, To this the drug- gist assented, and the other pulling @ couple of cigars from his pocket handed them to the rather astonish joker with the remark that he thought they would go better. So the druggist lit one of them and in a minute was enjoying one of the most delightful smokes he had had since he left home. The cigar drew finely and did not wilt as the others had done. He asked his new friend why it was, and was told that it seemed imported cigars are so affected by the salt air as to lose their shape and their drawing qualities, while cheap cigars, | or “two-fers.” ax they are commonly called, seom to be at their best in such an ai here, absorbing just enough of the salt air to take on a delicious favor, Theuceforth the druggist saved money by seagetey: dipacere but cheap cigars while he was at seashore, and every time he saw a man trying to smoke a good cigar with the same luck which he had en- countered he pares the “good Samaritan” and | offered him a bad one, together with the advice to smoke none other within reach of the air from the sea, He also found that when he re- turned to town the good cigars would regain | their shape and quality and were as enjoyable as ever, while the other were ag detestable as he had always found them to be. Like- wise when there was a strong land breeze at the shore he could smoke his finecigar without — by sitting far enough away from the 6: —__-__ DILLON ANSWERS THE BISHOP.

Favgvren Warre SULrucr Srrtxos, Jaly 14 Col. Robert L Fleming, of Washington, who has recently joined his wife and little daughter at these springs for a few days’ sojourn, has just retarned from a brief visit to the beautiful home of Vice President Morton, “Rhine Cliff,” about ninety miles above New York. In speak- ing of his visit the colonel is enthusiastic over the natural and architectural beauties of the spot, and warm in his praise of the hearty and hospitable weloome extended by the Vice Pres- ident and his charming wife to al! those who enjov the privilege of their confidence and friendship. After reaching the little station of Rhine Cliff, on the Hudson River railroad, a drive of two miles brings one to the elegant mansion situated upon a: elevated plateau in the midst of far-stretching grounds, eleven hundred acres in extent. THE DRIVE TO THE MANSION. The visitor is driven over smoothly macad- amized roads through a country unrivaled for Picturesque scenery. Entering the bandsome arched stone gateway leading into the artis- ticaily laid out acts grounds immediately surrounding the mansion, a broad carriage drive a quarter ut a mile long in the midst of an avenue of tall oaks, bordered on either side by blooming hedges of scarlet hollyhocks and other flowering piants, graduated in height, of several rows deep, introducing the visitor by « sudden and unlooked-for turn into full view of the imposing structure. The mansion is « com- bination of dark free stone, plaster and wood, built in the artistic Queen Anne style. THE INTERIOR, Upon alighting and entering one finds hi self in a magnificent central hallway, over sixty feet in length by thirty in breadth, furnished in solid owk and leather, each chair and lounge | stamped with the Morton crest in gilt, with the entwined letters of the monogram beneath. | Opening into this on either side are the recep- tion parlors, sitting and dining roome, with handsome, well-stocked library. At the farther | end a beautifal Queen Anne stajrway of carved | onk conducta one by easy to the elegant suite of sleeping apartments above, all opening | into the main gallery, from which you iook down into the hall below, The walls bordering | the stairway are hung with rare paintings and valuable engravings. Conspicuous among the | many beautifal roome is the spacious dining hall, like all of the other apartments, planned in the prevailing Queen Anne style. The wall are of pancied oak and cviling of ribbed wood and light-colored stucco. The furniture, like that of the main hall, is of the dark-grained | old English oak, with wide buffet laden with | rich repousse silver and handsome cut glass, | and luxurious divans, upholstered in raised | leather, are temptingly placed about. A VIEW OF THE RIVER. From the long veranda extending across the rear of the mansion a magnificent view of the Hudson river with all its devious windings for many miles in extent is obtained, and here it is that the family love best to linger during the afternoon hours and watch the vanishing changes of sky and water while enjoying the cool breezes sweeping over fields of nodding tain and spicy withthe breath of the pine forests. The mansion is so situated within a curve of the arm of the shore that the distance in a diréct line from the villa-dotted shores of the river is not more halfamile. In this lovely home, adorned with fragrant gardens and extensive conservatories and surrounded | by every luxury that nature or the ingenuity | of man can supply, the larger portion of eac! eae is happily spent by the members of the ousehold of the Vice President in the dis- pensing of a generous hospitality. T. A GREAT BUILDING To be Erected on the Site of Barnum’s Old Hotel in Baltimore. From the Raltimore Sun. At last the old Barnum's Hotel property is to be torn down and the lot on which it has stood | for fifty years put to modern use. A strong | syndicate of New York, Philadelphia and Balti- | more gentlemen are completing there arrange- ments to purchase from the Baltimore Trust and Guarantee Company the entire Calvert | street front of 117 fect, with a depth of over 206 | feet on Fayette, and to erect upon it a splendid fire-proof business office building from nine to eleven stories in hetght, similar in its general details and purposes of use to the Bullitt and Drexel buildings of Philadelphia, and the Mill, Potter, Washington, Equitable aud Mutual Life Insurance buildings of New York. It will be built of granite or brownstone to the first floor, and from thenee of pressed brick, with granite or brownstone trimmings. Nothing will enter into its construction but brick, stone and iron, 80 that it will be absolutely fire-proof, besides being surrounded by wide streets and courts. The trust company has agreed to open at ite own expense a wide court in the rear of the lot, which will divide the office building from the handsome buildings to be erected by the trust company on the corner of St. Paul and Fayette streets, The building will not be less than nine full stories in height, and perhap: ten or eleven of them. a — ee, DE LONG’S TATTERED CHART, It Hangs in Col. Langdon’s Parlor at Fort Hamiiton, From the New York Times. Years ago the officers stationed at Fort Ham- ilton had to live with the men inside the fort, | Now they occupy picturesque, vine-covered | cottages near by, and where once was a swamp behind the fort flowers now bloom and trees lend a grateful shade, One of these cottages | is occupied by the commanding officer, Col, Loomis L. Langdon, who graduated with the West Point class of "54 and went through the | war from first to last. He has some mementoes that he dearly cherishes, “I suppose this has a history,” said a Times reporter on a recent visit to the fort, as he picked up a section of a shell that ornamented the center table. “Not much of a history,” said the colonel. “I picked it up in Fort Barancas, in Pensacola harbor, after we had carried the place with the help of my men of the secoud artillery. We had the only ten-inch guns used in the bom- bardment and that is a piece of one of our shells, Here isan old musket cut off so as to | be used as a pistol by the confederates at same place. I found it in the earthworks after the scrimmage. “But here is something far more interesting,” said the colonel, leading the reporter to where a carefully framed relic of Lieut, De Long's fatal polar expedition lung from the wail. “This is part of the found on the body of poor De Long, and you may still see the pencil marks he made with a cross, marking the end of each day's journey. De Long was beset by ice in the Jeannette, June 12, 1881, aud his wandermgs until October 30, 1831, when he died of starvation, are traced on that tattered, weather-stained chart that was found on his body by the brave Melville March 23, 1882.” Col, Langdon bes many other relics gathered during the war and in his travels, but none to which « sadder memory clings than this, Death of a Well-known Aeronaut. Alfred E.

In the international cricket match, Cam ada ve. United States, at Philadelphia yester- day the Canadian team finished their first inning with a total of 141 runs. They immodi+ ately started their second inning and made only 97 runs, This gave them » total of 238 for the two invings, or 31 less than United States made in itssingle inning yesterday, and the latter team is therefore an easy winner of the match, A large attendance greeted the cricketers om the second nd. the ground baving bard- ened somewhat, the expectation was that @ large score would result and the game be pro- longed to a third day, but although the visitors showed themscives to be pavent and scientatle | batemen the trundiing of the Americans proved too good for the hanucks, and one of the strongest teams Canada has ever putin the field suffered an inning’s defeat, To the won- derfal bowling of Brown, Bailey and Clarke is the collapse of the visitors mainly due. Lyon made the best stand for his «ide, scoring 26 1m. the first inning and 34 in the second. Saunders did well in the first inning, scoring 88 rans, put he was retired for 2in the second.

A San Francisco special to the New York Trilune says a thrilling story of peril at the lonely Tillamook light house on the Oregon coast is brought to this city by the light house steamer Manzanita This light house is built on & rock which rises « hundred feet sheer from the sea, and at most tim cut off from the shore. For weeks in winter it is unap- Proachable because of the force with which the sea beats against it. It is estimated that no point of the stormy northern coast is more ex- posed to the waves which often sweep clear, over the top of the light. Last winter the waves carried rocks weighing four tons up to the platform, more than a hundred feet from the sea level, and so great was the force of the water that the heavy glass was smashed, Till- amook bears the reputation of being the lone- est station on the coast, and men are loath to stay long there.

He was then locked in a room and a signal for help was displayed. This was seen by # passing vessel and the Manzanita waa sent to the rock. The insane keoper was taken to au asylum.
