New Tacoma, W. T.
Charles Crocker, the San Francisco million-I
aim, has bought the Colorado Mines- for
$100,000, which is not, they’say, one-tenth
of its value. He intends putting on a large;
force of men and to open new veins. Thers‘
is one vein now 11 feet thick and apparently;
inexhausible. 1
Mr. Villard has purchased the large timber3
mills at Old Tacoma. It is one of the finest;
upon the Sound, running out 125,000 feet oil
lumber every twelve hours. -i
The Indians from the reservation are now
bringing in large quantities of hay of a fine
quality. worth from $11 to $13 per ton.
They are an industrious and frugal class, and
they cause but very little disturbance to the
community.
Mount Prairie continues to look as beauti-f‘
ful as ever, crowned perpetually with herf
fieccy whiteness, lifting herself 15,000 feet
in mid-air with the clouds hovering around
base and the sun shining upon her crystals:
reflected by the clouds gives the contrast a,
very pleasing aspect to the eye, the white
mingling with the crimson. '
There has recently been several new streets
out far into the timber, wide and straight,
and upon them new houses are being rapidly
built. The new church is being rapidly-
pushed to a completion, and new stores are;
every where being built, and if this building
mania continues for twelve. months,_Tacom'a§
willbe the largest place upon the Sound.S
They are now erecting a mill for sawing
wood for family use and it is estimated that?
there will be 7,000 cords Of wood to supply-
the demand for this winter in addition to the '
amount of coal burned. The iron‘foundry
has been erecting another building and plac-~
ing about $3,000 worth of new machinery in i
it. The ‘car works are in full operation and
they have now 300 cars to build immediately
for the mines. - ‘
Here, in this place, is discussed a kind of
literature which‘seems to suit the depressed
mind that has long heldjtself alcof from the
gentler sex; ideas that are not oft to elevate
the morals Of man, or ‘lift_him from the sty
of degredation. You will not see them at-

country and generally two-thirds of them are

class of people upon this coast. They live
by themselves with their dog and cat as their

Diogenes, At dusk of evening you will see
them sitting in their cabin doors, smoking
their pipes with their faithful companion lying
by his side, with his floor unswept and his

that any gentleman would not allow his fine
animal to be covered with, and his floor alive
with vermin ; his face is unshaven, his hair
uncombed and as he sat clothed in his
dirty garb, looked more like a wild man than
civilized; although living alone as they do,
they possessa soft and tender heart to the
weary traveler, if he could put up with his
accommodations, a more cordial welcome to
' his hearth and home could not be extended.
Such hospitality cannot be found upon the
Atlantic coast. Here have they lived for a
quarter of a5 century and here will they
probably rest their bones. Many of them are
fond of reading, but it is all fiction and of
the lightest character such as the New York

is read with avidity. and' every murder and
slot is read with much real appreciation.
They seem to care not for any sound litera-

Tea.
The wide circulation givento our article on
colfe and the method of its production has
induced us to present a few facts in regard to
the culture and uses of tea. We have both
plants in our own garden and conservatory,
and the tea is now in full blessom. The
plants are raised from seed, which is easily
obtained, but the growth is comparatively
slow. The best seed time is the spring. The
young plants may be left in the open air from
:May till November, but they will not endure
'the winter in any climate north of Virginia.
The picking begins after the plants are'two
or three years old. There is substantially
but one tea plant, and all the varieties that
came to the market come from the different
methods of preparing the leaf. The real
green tea is the very young tender leaf, fired
a little as soon as picked. then rolled, and
rapidly dried on copper. The green tea is
artificially colored with tumcric powder and a
mixture of gypsum and Prussian blue,or gyp-
sum and indigo. There is nothing in the
small quantity used which is essentially in-
jurious, but the tea itself is not as healthful,
more of the essential oil being preserved in
the leaf. To keep a person wakeful or to
stimulate the nervous system. it is the best,
but for this very reason not as desirable for
an ordinary'beverage.
The black teas are prepared by a slower
process, and fired on iron plates. The Eng-
estimation, for family use, the fermentation
far less hold upon the nervous system. The
oolong teas are all ‘of them flavored with some
taste, audit is difiicult to get two cargoes ex-
actly alike in this respect.
But whatever the mode of preparation there
is in each description nearly the same range
of qualities, according to the size of the leaf
and the season of picking. The first picking
in China usually takes place in April, the se-
cond in May, the third in J uly. and sometimes
the fourth in August; but the last gives only
a very inferior description, and the July
yield is of the coarser leaves and generally
of a poor quality.
Tea is to the Chinese what beer is to the
German, or claret to the French, but its ex-
cessive use is far more injurious than either.
It is drank clear, neither milk nor sugar be-
ing added as in England and the United
States.
The United States imported for the fiscal
year ending June 30th, 1881, 81,843,988
pounds of tea, which cost abroad $21,014.-
813, the freight to this country not included.
Many attempts have been made to grow tea
in the United States, and Congress made an
appropriation for' this purpose, but it has
only resulted in failure. If the same quali-
ty of leaf could be grown. the cost of the
(patient labor necessary to cure it properly
,would be far too great in a country where
the commonest laboerrs are so liberally re-
warded. .
Some years ago we gave an account Of the
old “tea wells” in New York city, exciting
thereby. the mirth of many ignorant people
who could not believe that it made it any
difierence with their cup of tea what kind
of water was used to produce it. There is
probably nothing in the world so sensitive
to the elements as tea. It has to be roasted
very dry to bear a sea voyage, and this is
why the product carried overland to Russia
is of so much finer quality.
j The peculiar taste of the Formosa tea,
often called the “jessamina” flavor, and never
successfully imitated, although very often
counterfeited, springs it is said from the iron
In the soil; but after a few years the peculi-
arity runs out at any given location, and the
soil must have a rest, while the plants must
seek another field. But far more difference
can be made out of the same chest of ordi-
nary tea by the variety of water used in its
preparation.
‘Hard water makes the most delicious tea,
. as it dissolves less of the tanuiu and'gives
the cup a more delicate flavor. And even
with hard water there is a wide difference be-
'.80_ .
‘ *j ; tween wells located near together. But given
the same quality of water, and a difference
in the manipulation will make to a sensitive
taste‘ajtotlll change in the character of the
beverage.
There is not one» city tea-kettle out of a
hundred that in its present condition is fit to
boil waterfor a cup of tea. Let our reader
goghomeito-night and inspect his own outfit,
the mineral deposits extracted from the water
succeeding day. As the water is “clean,"
the cook but empties and fills the kettle,
never thinking of the growing crust that
must now be scraped off if the kettle is to be
cleaned.
Water that has stood after boiling will not
make a good cup of tea, and yet how often
the. tired laborer, mechanic, merchant, doc-
tor or lawyer has tried to solace himself with
a beverage made from water containing the
debris of that which has stood all day on the
range, being only filled as often as any addi-
tion was needed. Take a clean kettle never
used for anything else, fill it with fresh
water, the harder the better. boil quickly
over a hot fire. and pour as soon as it boils
upon the tea leaves fresh from the canister.
Let it stand four or five minutes, and then
drink.
If the first experiment does not make an
infusion strong enough. or if the pot is part-
ly empty and more is needed, do not put any
'fresh tea into the teapot, for it will surely
be wasted. Tea water will not dissolve the
theine from the dry leaves of fresh tea ;
only pure. fresh water will do that. The
addition of tea to the nearly empty teapot
will increase the color, but it will not make
the;tea perceptibiy stronger in its exhilarat-
ingzquality.
Any one may try the experiment. Put a
tablespoonful of ten into aquart of water and
let it stand five minutes. or boil it if desired.
Then add two more spoonfuls of leaves to
the same decoction. The color will be in-
creased, but the tea will be little stronger in
the active principle so much desired. When
more liquid or a stronger infusion is desired,
put the additional tea in soup and pour fresh
water on it; after it has stood a few minutes
it may then be put in the pot to good advan-
ta 9.
Nifany persons use alcoholic beverages who
wouldbe far healthier if they would ex.
change thcm for tea. Only let the tea be
made by some one who has learned the art.

cook with a choice fancy desert, but the most

range Of housekeeping. To make a good
cup of tea is a higher accomplishment than
to play a difficult "waltz, and requires as
much genius and judgment. It is a more
useful art, and it has an intimate bearing on
the good health and long life of the house-
hold. We commend tho study to our fair

said to an old sailor, “Jack, will you show

“Yes. my lad.”

Moderate drinktr, you a! ways cross the line

The Austin Weekly Sim finds no pleasure
in the music of the bell-punch or the clinking
of convivial glasses, but says, “When the
state writes ‘criminal' over the doorway of
the most elegant drinking saloon as well as
over the lowest grogshop; when it places at
the bar of justice the tempter by the side of
his victim, and when it stamps every pack-
age of liquor as a dangerous beverage, mer-
iting destruction as a public nuisance, it has
done much to warn the young and unwary,
and to turn their feet aside from the down-
ward path. The man who drinks is not al-
ways an idiot, as many believe. The greatest
statesmen have ceasedto be great; the best
writers have dropped their pens when they
were most useful and brilliant—splendid fel-

on a ruined shrine, its schemes dead failures,
its crimes legions, its prisons and cllarnel
houses fall, because of the ‘man who drinks.’

A woman at Cape Girardeau, Mo., who had
suffered from a husband's neglect, traced him
to a barroom. where he was playing cards
with several companions. Setting a covered
dish she held in her hand down on the table,
she said} “Presuming, husband, that you
are too busy to come home to dinner, I have
brought you yours,” and departed. With a
forced laugh he invited his friends to dine
with him, but on removing the cover from
the dish, found only a slip of paper, on
which was written: “I hope you will enjoy
your meal; it is the same your family have
at home.”
Robert Graham, secretary of the Church
of England Temperance Society, who has
been traveling in this country for several
months to aid in establishing temperance so-
cieties in the Episcopal churches. says he has
found public opinion here strongly in favor
of temperance reform, but. in his opinion, at-
tention is too much concentrated on prohibi-
tion to the exclusion of all other methods.
The plan of taxing saloon keepers to sup-
port the paupers, rendered such by their
trade and also the helpless families of men
killed by strong drink,.would prove, should
it be carried out, the most effective blow that
could be struck at the liquor traffic. The
justice of the plan, we believe, would com-
mend it to all honest men in the country.
The duty for reparation for wrong is unques-
tioned, and what greater wrong can be done
a man than, by insiduous tempation, to lure
him on to disease and death? Even if the
responsibility of rain be shifted on to the
victim's own weakness and sin—though we
do not think this can be fairly doneethe liq-
uor dealer is responsible for supplying the
means by which this ruin was accomplished,
and should be made to suffer for this.
Madame de Maintcnon, we are told, once
asked King Louis XIV for money to give as
as aims to the poor. To this the king replied
that if he gave more money away in taxes he
would certainly be obliged to increase his
taxes, and thus the people would be little
benefitted by his aims.
“This, sire," replied the lady, "is no doubt
true; but it is only right that you should ease
the wants of those whom your former taxes
to supply the expenses of your wars have re-
duced to misery. It is truly just, that those
who have been ruined by you, should be sup-
ported by you.”

toes ;
Looking o’er garments so faded and thin-—
Who but a mother knows where to begin 1’
Changing a button to make it look right——
That is what mothers are doing to-nighln
Calling the little ones all round her chair.
Hearrng them lisp forth their evening prayer;
Telling them stories of Jesus of old,
Who loved to gather the lambs to His fold :
Watching, they listen with weary delight—
That is what mothers are doing to-night.
Creeping so softly to take a last peep,
After the little ones all are asleep:
Anxious to know if the children are warm,
Tricking thelblankets round each little form;
Kissing each little face rosy and bright ;—
That is What mothers are doing to-night.
Kneeling down gently beside the White bed,
Lowly and meckly she bows down her head;
PmS’ing as only a mother can pray,
God guide and keep them from going astray.

SCIENTIFIC nlsanLinn
At a recent meeting of a French associa-
tion a system of cremation by elsctricity was
proposed. By the plan the .electric current
reduces the body to ashes without the intro.
dution of foreign substance.
M. Tonssaint finds that the virus of tuber-
culosis retains its power under conditions
which completely destroy the germs of other
contagious maladies.
At the Royal Aquarium, Westminster, the
experiment of lighting the' tanks by incan-
descent electric lamps has been successfully
tried. The lights are submerged in the
tanks, and do not appear to disturb the fishes
in the least, while the water is lightdd up
with a brilliancy which could be attained in
no other way.
A London nautical journal has found that
sixty-three per cent. of the storms starting in
this country across the Atlantic reach Great
Britain, from which it appears that the
proposed international interchange of weather
signals would be a great benefit to the Eng.
lish people. Storms seldom cross to this
country from Great Britain, so that the chief
advantage of the interchange to the Ameri-
n weather service would be found in the
additions made to the world's knowledge of
meteorological science.
Mr. Swan, the inventor of the English
rival ef Edison’s lamp, recently exhibited a
two-candle power lamp detached from any
wire and portable. It could be kept lighted
for six hours by a small Faure secondary
battery not exceeding ten pounds in weight.

M.Gastou Tisaudier’s little balloon at the
Paris Electrical Exhibition has attracted
much attention. The balloon is of an
elongated egg-shape, with conical ends,
measures eleven and one-half feet in length
and four and one-quarter feet in' diameter,
and has a lifting power of a little more than
four pounds. Is is driven to and fro across
the Palais de 1’ Industrie by a Trouvc elec-
tric motor weighing less than half a pound,
which is operated by a current from a
Plante weight. M. Tisandier has made some
experiments with this tiny zerostat. He
finds that an electric motor developing six
horse power could be made with a weight
of 560 pounds, with 1980 pounds of battery.
It would be easy to raise this by an elongated
balloon of 100,000 cubic feet capacity filled
with hydrogen. Such a balloon would be

131 feet long and 44 feet in diameter in the
middle, and would have an ascensionai force
of 7,7001pounds. Deducting weight of bal-
loon, motor and battery, 2,200 pounds would
be left for passengers and ballast. In calm
weather such an air-ship should have a
speed of twelve of fifteen miles an hour,
and in currents its direction could be direc-
ted to some extent. The battery power,
however, would last but a short time, so that
a balloon constructed on this plan would ev-
idently be valuable only for purposes of ex-
periments: which this estimate makes it
quite apparent that the motor described
would, in the somewhat improbable event of
the practical application of power to bal-
loons, be found much less economical than
steam.
As an illustration of the present wide
spread‘interest in electrical matters it may
be stated that six papers devoted to electric-
ity and its applications are now published
regularly in Paris.
M. Jules Godard and M. de Fonvielle, the
distinguished aeronauts. have invented an
“electrical stationary balloon.” The balloon
contains apparatus, driven by the electric
current, which, it is claimed, will keep the
balloon suspended at any level so that it can
neither ascend or descend.
Reports from more than one hundred
lighthouses and lightships :have shown that
migrations of birds of one species or another
are almost continually going on although the
great migrations occur in the spring and fall.
Vast numbers of birds are killed by flying at
night against the glass protecting the lights
of lighthouses, being, while in mitigation,
attracted by the glare of the lamps. No less
than six hundred were destroyed in this
manner in a single month at one lighthouse.
In the Norwegian division of the Paris
Electrical Exhibition there is shown a wood-
pecker caught by its beak on the top of a
telegraph post. The account given informs
one that the bird became a victim of the
sound produced by the telegraph wires,
which it mistook for that of certain insects
on which it feeds. According to L’ Electri-
cite, this vast Aeolian harp, produced by
telegraph wires, has produced other effects
quite as singular, Thus it appears that, be-
cause of it, wolves have completely disap-
peared from districts where they were prev-
iously numerous.
The horn of a rhinoceos,wllen cut through
the middle, is said tozexhibit on- each side
the rude figure yf a man, the outlines being
marked by small white strokes.

try's waste places. I am now exploring a
new territory, settled three years ago by
Roman Catholics. A few Protestants have
came in, and at four points in a country of
thirty square miles, and having a. population
of 4,000, we have set up the, only Protestant
banners yet erected here. The people are
very 0001‘. mostly livingin sod huts. At one
place where we organized a. Sunday-school
of thirty-two, we took a contribution for
necessary supplies—amount, $8. More than
one present emptied pockets, and all gave of
their poverty, yet we raised between three
and four dollars. When I went home with
the superintendent to his sod house, he took
from a trunk a well-worn wallet, and hand-
ed me nine cents, saying: ‘This is the last
money I have in the world, and I don‘t
know where more is to. come from. This
was my dead :boy baby’s bank fund. I had
thought never to part with it, but I am sure
little Harry would say. “Give it to the Bunny
