AN Ok ExcITEMRNr.-Between three and four
O'Clock Yesterday afternoon an Infatuated OK es-
capped from the cattle market at the Bulls Head,
Third avenue, and ran down the avenue at full
speed, dispensing people in all directions as he
travelled along. When arriving ut the corner of
fifteenth street, laborer, named Patrick kenne-
dy, was standing with his back towards the OK,
mixing mortar; the animal at once made for poor
Pats rear and before he had warning to turn the
OK elevated him some six feet in the air, and then
passed other objects attracting his attention on
the street. The affrighted laborer luckily de-
scended softly into bed of his own mortar, when
sob! I'm kilt I'm kilt'' However, ON being
extricated from the mortar, scraped down and
washed off, he was found to be more frightened
than "kilt," having received only slight bruise
or two. He was able to resume his labor Inc
OK, however, not daunted, proceeded down FIT
teenth street to Irving Place, and at the corner OF
Seventeenth street he came to stand, threw up his
head, and with the boldness of lion looked ON
either side as much as to say, sCome ON! I'm
ready for the fray" Here shoemaker named
Patrick Henneberry loaded his rife, and at tho
solicitation of Mr.. Post assembled to the second
story window of his house, the OK standing at
the time directly under the window, by the
curbstone Mr. Henneberry rested his rifle
on the window -sill, fired, and down rolled the
beast on his side, amid the shouts OF over
hundred persons congregated in the vicinity,
who had become much excited, fearful that the
shot might not have the desired effect. The slugs
from the rifle penetrated the head of the OK, and
before he could possibly regain his feet several
men assisted policeman Garthworth, who, with
knife, despatched the animal, and thus relieved
the citizens from any further mischief

CHLoRoFoRM FOR BEEs.-Mr. D.. Smith, in a
letter to the Edinburgh Courant, thus describes his
discovery of sschloroforming bees:" ''The guam
tity of chloroform required for an ordinary hive is
the sixth part of an ounce; very large hive may
take nearly quarter Of an ounce MY mode OF
operation is as follows: set down table opposite
to, and about four feet distant from, the hive; ON
the table spread thick linen cloth; in the centre
of the table | place small shallow breakfast
plate, which cover with piece of wire gauze, to
prevent the bees coming in immediate contact
with the chloroform. | now quietly and cautiously
lift the hive from the board on which it is stand
ng, set it down on the top of the table, keeping
the plate in the centre cover the hive closely up
with cloths, and in twenty minutes or so the bees
are not only sound asleep, but, contrary to what
have seen when they are suffocated with sulphur,
not one is left among the combs; the whole OF
them are lying helpless on the table. You now
remove what honey you think fit, replace the hive
in its old stand and the bees as they recover, will
return to their domicil. bright, calm, sunny
day is the BEST and you should commence your
operations in the morning, before many of them
are abroad. ~

NovELTY.-A new practice is coming into
vogue in New Orleans 1t is the building of large
and elegant verandahs in front Of the second sto-
res of buildings, so to cover the whole breadth
of the sidewalk, and protect pedestrians from the
sun and rain, making cool and comfortable
promenade When placed over stores, they have
the advantage of saving the cost of awnings, and
answering the same purpose more effectively,
though rendering the store rather darker An
effort somewhat similar was attempted in London
some years back, when the Quadrant was erected,
but in that case tho houses were built over the
sidewalk leaving the basement open for the pave
ment. A range of futed columns near the curb
stone supported the outer wall. They are used
tor stores, but the latter are thought to be too
dark. The New Orleans idea is Improvement
on this plan, which would allow of lighter APP
pearance.

PROFESSOR ALEXANDER G. BARRY's
L TRICOPHEROUS,o or Medicated Compound, for
beautifyng, curling,. preserving, restoring and
Strengthening the Hair, relieving diseases OF the
skin, curing rheumatic pains and healing external
wounds. Bounded by no geographical lines, the
reputation of Barry's Tricopherous pervades the
Union TIE sales ofthe article of late years have
increased in ratio that almost exceeds belief.
Professor Barry. after careful examination of his
sales book, finds that the number of bottles de,
livered to order, in quantities of from halfa gross
upward, during the year 1852, was within trife
of $50 900. F-.
1t is unnecessary to present at length the evil
dences of the wonderful properties of the Trico-
pberous when the public have furnished such an
endorsement as this. The cheapness the article,
and the explanations given of its chemical action
upon the hair, the scalp, and in all cases of
superficial irritation, first recommended it to
the attention of the people. This was all that
itself The effects of the fluid exceeded expec
tation. 1t acted like charm. The ladies would
not be without it Country dealers in every
section Of the United States found they must
have it !; and thus was built up wholesale
trade of an extent hitherto unheard of as regards
articles of this kind. The highest point has not
vet been reached, md it is believed that the sales
this year will be million and half of bottles.

Aggregate assets.

The securities bearing interest, it would appear,
amount to cal ,489 1913. Assuming three per cent
the average rate of interest, the annual income
of the bank is shown to be upwards of twelve hum
dred thousand pounds sterling.
Twenty years since the number of clerks and
porters employed in the bank premises was $40;
printers and engravers, 38; clerks and porters at
the branches, 80; making aggregate of $50, at
an annual expense of ELL 1903.
At the present time the number is largely in
creased. Nine families constantly reside within
the precincts of the bank--the houses of the sec
rotary, chief accountant and gate-keeper being
situated around the court The whole extent OF
the bank is surrounded by parapet wall, on which
thirty-four private soldiers and an officer keep
watch every night. Besides these guards, there
are fourteen men constantly employed, day and
night, who are familiar with the labyrinthian ma
zes of the building, and who have fre-engines at
command in case of any alarm of fire.
Every department of manual labor connected
with the bank Except the manufacture of paper
is carried on within its limits. There are three
steam cylindrical presses and two hand presses
kept for letter-press printing; and steam engine
of ten-horse power constantly in use In ,ne

A EUROPEAN WAR would hardly realize the state
of things which some of the newspaper commenta-
tors seem to take for granted. Itwould by no means
furnish the fine opportunity to European revolu-
tionists which is so fondly anticipated by their
friends continental contest, instead OF weak
ening the despotc governments, would render re-
volt out of the question War always unites the
people against a foreign foe, and whatever COM
plants the nations may have against its rulers,
they are always forgotten in the national self
love- The people rarely think of such thing as
turning their arms against their own government
in the face of an enemy on the outside. European
revolutions do not break out when there is a foe
at the door, 1t is in times Of profound peace that
people rise against their rulers for redress OF grev
ances When government has brought out its
whole military strength and armed itself to the
full extent Of its power, indictments are not apt
to have either the opportunity or the disposition
to get up revolutions. Even if they have the dis
position, they are deprived of the power, for al
most every other man is soldier, with all sole
der's pride and prestige for the power that feeds
them, and furnishes the immediate means OF gain
ing glory and distinction; for ambition is as active
in the common soldier in his officer. At all
events military discipline does not often fail OF
keeping him faithful to his flag. Rebellion, we
repeat, has no chance of success while his govern
ment is armed to the teeth.
