PERFUMID BUTTER.

Perfumed butter on thedinnor tab?

l-ich In, London. The dairies when:
this butter is made are as odorous us a
florist’s shop or the laboratory of a
perfumer. On all sides them are flow—
ers and jars of leaves, piessed and
loose.
At first glance it might be supposec
1
, that the butter receives its subtle odor
by working it with some sort of es-
sence. Butthis is not the case. In
the first place the butter 5is made in
small pats like those in ordinary use.-
Each pat is wrapped in a bit of fine
muslin and placed on a bed of rose
leaves specially prepared in an earth.
ern jar. On‘top another layer of the
fresh and delicate‘rose leaves is placed
before the jar is filled with a solid
chunk of ice. Then the jar is placed
in a refrigerator and allowed to re-
main there for ten hours, when the
pets are ready for the customer.
This is all there is to it, but, simple
as the idea is, it has made for its dis-
coverer a fortune, and he is now per-
mitted to announce that he is “by

Police und Hilltlamon Clash Frequently
' In Springfield, Ills.
SPRINGFIELD, 1115., J an 13. —Policcmen
! and militiamen attendant upon the man-
gnrnl ceremonies clashed on four occasions.
. The Second regiment of Chicago was
mixed up in the rows, and some of the men
of the Fifth regiment had a. hand' in the
trouble. '
Clubs and bayonets were used freely' in
' the last combat, and the policemen had to
threaten to shoot before order was restored.
Several police Officers were struck with
bayonets, but the injuries received were
slight. A few of the soldiers were beaten
with policemen’s clubs, and they will be
nursing sore heads when they arrive home.
The first clash occurred in the morning
20 soldiers. There was an Old wagon
standing on the lot, in which the militia
were stationed, and the soldiers started to
pull the vehicle into the street, which the
police tried to prevent.
One of the soldiers made an attempt to
strike Policeman Doocy with his bayonet,
but the policeman was too quick for him,
and, with a. hard blow in the face, sent the
soldier sprawling to the ground.
Several other soldiers then made a rush
at the policemen, who were tumbled into
the street. The poliCemen pulled their re-
volvers and threatened to shoot.
A crowd of soldiers congregated at the
corner of FOurth and Washington streets
during the afternoon and stopped the street
cars. A detachment of police was sent to
the scene, and the men refused to disperse.
An attempt was made to arrest some of
the soldiers, and a. fight ensued, the police
using clubs and the soldiers their guns or
bayonets.
Two other collisions took place during
the day. John Smith, a citizen, received
a severe scalp wound and was sent home
unconscious. I. A. Irwin had his face cut
Open with a. bayonet, and several other cit-
izens were slightly injured. Some of the
soldiers were more or less disfigured.
NOW LET THE EMIR TRBMBLE.
The Royal Nigef Company “'11! Average
the Murder of Its Servants.
LONDON, Jan. 13.—A telegram from La—
emir Of Nupe is still waiting at Lokoja.
This expedition, sent out by the Royal Ni-
ger company, consists of 500 Houst troops,
6 maxims, 26 mounted European officers
and 900 carriers.
It is expected that it vfill march against
the Foule forces at Kabba, southwest of the
Niger. Sir George Goldie, the governor,
has arrived and will accompany the col-
umn'. The Royal Niger company’s flotilla
of armed stern wheeled steamers will patrol
the Niger and cut off the enemy’s retreat
to Bida, the capital.
The Times says the original cause Of
quarrel between the powerful emir of Nupe
and the Niger company was on account of
the emir raiding the company’ s territory
for shaves.
The Foulas occupying Kabba. are 20,000
foot and 2,000 cavalry. The company
has an arduous and perilous task. Its
plan is daring and subject to many chances.
The Officials of the Niger company con-
firm the report of the massacre Of British
officials and say they do not believe a sin—
gle White men of the party escaped. The
party included 250 carriers, of whom 7 es-
caped. ‘
'That serious trouble is ahead for the Ni-
ger company is shown by the dispatch from
Bombay, on the Guinea coast, announcing
a massacre of British officials by the king’s
people.
The ofl‘icers slain Were reported to be
Consul Phillips, Consular Officers Locke
and Campbell, Major Crawford, a deputy
commissioner; Captains Boisragon and
Maling, Niger company’s Oflicers; Dr. El-
liott, and two civilians, with many Kroo-
