ADVENT OF THE Q- ' Ilackett,' of Mr. E. A. Ilackett,' of Portland, assistant general agent of the freight and passenger departments of the Burling ton route, who has been in Spokane sev eral days, said to a Eeview reporter that the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy people have definitely and positively determined to make it a transcontinental line, with Spokane as one of the principal terminal points. "The 'Q."! he said, "is un doubtedly headed Spokaneward. , The road will be built into Butte about Jnly 1st. Preliminary surveys" have been made from Butte to Spokane, and " I know several men who have seen the maps, charts and profiles, so far as they have been completedr-and they all point definitely to Spokane as the objective point in eastern Washington. From there two lines are contemplated, one to the sound and the other to Portland, and thence to San. Francisco.' The Portland branch will probably come down the Columbia river, and will thus reach an important region of coun try now witnout railroad communica tion. The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy is recognized in railway and mercantile circles as one of the strongest of the great trunk lines. Its coming to the Pacific coast means a great deal more than would appear at a glance. It means the advent of an independent transcontinental line that has a title to its own propertv all the wav, with branches extending throughout the mid' die west, and will cut an important fig ure in establishing rates' from Missouri river and Mississippi river points. After a tempestuous voyage across the North Atlantic from Hamburg with the second consignment of the Krupp ex hibit for the world's fair,, the British steamship Longnil arrived off Sparrows' Point Saturday about noon and anchored in the stream, awaiting the completion of the preparations for docking her ine cargo- comprises exclusively war material. The chief article is the- big 124-ton cannon built expressly for the exhibit. The steamer encountered stormy weather almost all the way across. The transportation of such an immense weight all in one piece was risKy unaeriaKing, ana wnen it was learned at the first of the week that - the steamer was .overdue fears were ex pressed that the colossal cannon bad broken loose in the hold of the ship from the rolling of the vessel, and had caused her loss. As day after day rolled along and no tidings were heard of the Longuil, much uneasiness was felt in shipping circles.' The arrival of the ship and the gun is particularly interesting, owing to the fact that the piece of ord nance is the largest ever made in the world. The calibre of the gun is 19 inches, the projectiles fired from weigh 2000 pounds and are four feet long.. About 700 pounds of powder are used at a single shot, and the projectile is hurled with such terrific force that will go through a plate of steel 20 inches thick at a distance of nine miles. The gun will be the largest piece of freight ever handled by any railroad, and will be conveyed to Chicago on a car specially constructed for the purpose by the Penn eylvania railway. , v lsitors to the worm s' lair who are infirm, crippled or simply weary can do their sight-seeing in the various build ings by making use of rolling chairs. A company was granted tbe right some time ago of operating such vehicles, and by May 1st will have 1,600 young men, chiefly college etudents, in its employ to push them. The charges to visitors for making use of these chairs will be as follows : For chair carrying one person, 75 cents- per hour, 40 cents per half hour ; two persons, $1 per hour, 50 cents' per half hour; one person, when chair is taken for a period of not less than 10 hours, $6 for the first 10 hours and 40 cents an hour for the time over 10 hours ; carrying two persons, $S for the first 10 hours and 75 cents an - hour after that. The fact of having college young men to push these adult perambulators is con sidered to be a great drawing card. It is not from the crippled, the infirm or the simply weary that the greatest revenue is to be expected, but from the sentimental young lady who will enjoy the small talk with an athletic young man which the slightest encouragement will be sure to pour into her willing ear. Oregonium rue following is tne will lett by a drunkard of Oswego, New York: "I leave to society a ruined character and a wretched example. I leave to my par ents as much sorrow as they can in their feeble state bear. I leave to my broth ers and sisters as much shame and mor tification as I could bring on them. I leave to my wife a broken heart a life of shame. I leave to each of my child ren poverty, ignorance, a low character, and the remembrance that their father, filled a drunkard's grafi' AN ITALIAN OVEN Contrivances That Prevent Oust. Smoke sod Other Annoyances. . When the Italian cooking apparatus is used., neither dust, dirt gas,, smoke, heavy cake, soggy potatoes nor explo sions ruffles tempers. It is neither range nor simply stove.' It looks like a tub covered with shining tiles of blue and white porcelain. It is a trine high, and In order to operate it to the best advan tage it is best to stand on a little foot stool or platf prm. Under the stove is a semicircular closet reaching up to about half its height and holding from one to three sacks (about four bushels) of char coal. On the top are one, two or three openings little square, boxlike grates, sinking perhaps four or five inches and about eight inches square. Under the grates are receptacles with doors for ashes, and in the center is a larger re ceptacle for heating dishes. Over the stove and about half way up the wall is a canopy, shaped like the stove at the bottom, but gradually nar rowing to the top at the front and side until it is almost tunnel shaped, where it joins the chimney, is an opening into the chimney, about the size of a very small stovepipe. There is always a good draft without dampers. For boiling, a few bits of cane are put in the square or grate over which the kettle or tbe saucepan is to be placed; then a shovelful of charcoal is put over the canes, a light is applied and, if you are in a hurry, over the hole is put a cu rious contrivance very like a stovepipe. perhaps two feet high, with a funnel at the top, a contrivance that is expressively known in Italian as "il diavolo!" possibly because it starts the fare in such a mar velously short time. If the articles to be boiled are vegeta bles, the kettle is placed directly over the grate, and il diavolo is laid upon the shelf above. II.. however, some thing more delicate is to be cooked, a tripod about three inches high is put over the grate and the boiler is placed on that, so that there is not even a possi bility of burning or scorching; then a circle of coals is put on the outside of the stove about the boiler, which is tightly covered. It takes from twenty minutes to half an hour to cook this way, and everything cooked is cooked all over. For baking, the preliminary prepara tions are the same, but the dish hold ing the mixture is placed in an outer dish of block tin, and over it is put that wonderful magician," the "forno di campagna," that looks like a peck or a half bushel measure, according to its 6ize, made or sheet iron and inverted. There is an opening at one side, up which slips the handle of the baking tin or the saucepan, and . over which the form slips, settling firmly down on the Btove. Under the dish that contains the ma terial to be baked is the charcoal fire in the grate; about it glowing coals are put and replenished-before the glow dies out, and on top of the "forno" more glowing coals are placed and treated in the same way. Everywhere there is an equal dif fusion of heat. Mince pies, sponge cake, custards, bread and turkeys are browned perfectly. The "forno' wasn t invented by an Italian, but by a Frenchman, and it would be quite possible to use it with our charcoal stoves. New York Son.

Reckless Wanfe of Flowers. The extravagant use of flowers in fashionable circles is almost, reckless. Evidently the tender feeling of the late Lord Lytton toward the lovely blossoms has little counterpart. . "What, said he, "have the flowers done that they should be consigned " to . graves and milts?" And. respecting bis wishes, Ludy Lytton permitted not the smallest rtfcebud nor tiniest violet to be placed in hit coffin. Jostly and beautiful boxes and bas kets of flowers are sent to sick friends, tq be carefully banished from the sick room and waste their sweetness unno rfced and unappreciated anywhere; at ery feast and function uowers are erywhere, and are , often glanced at y to estimate their cost; some pesthet- hostesses, in lieu of . bowls and vases ttered through the rooms, strew the flowers loosely about without water to revive their arooping neaas, ana in consequence . they quickly fade and die. One even went so far as to toss them on the divans and throw them over the rugs for seated and trampling guests to bruise out their delicate fragrance. Could anything be more barbarous? To real flower lovers this wasteful profu sion approaches a sin. Her Point of View in New York Times. . When Christ Was Born. Speculative and philosophical writers have long since established the fact that we have no proof that Dec. 25 is . the date of the birth of the Messiah. At one time the beginning of the Christian era was supposed to conform with the great event above mentioned, but it has been pretty clearly established that Christ was not born on the day we cele brate as Christmas or at any other time during a winter, month.. The date now unanimously agreed upon by scholars is April 5, not April 5 of-the "year of one,"' but April 5, 4 B. C. This error m our mode of reckoning time is supposed to have arisen from the fact that the dating of tune 'A. D. was not introduced until about the year 527 of the Christian . era.
