A Man OurwirrEp BY HIS W1rr

A MAN OUTWfTTED BY HIS WIFE. -
A woman outwitted man at Detroit,
Mich, as follows: she had fonnd that
the law would not sustain her claim to
her child, which her husband was ia
king away with him in the cars, but
she was determined to succeed. She
followed and took seat with the IA
Their in the depot, sitting near the win
dow. The air was warm and close,
and she raised the window. Scarce
a minute had elapsed before she grasp
ed the boy, put him through the aper-
ture to stout man, and he with the
rapidity of lightning, darted for the
street, the crowd making clean pas
sage for him. He gained the street
safely, jumped into a hack, and order
ed the driver off at the top of his
speed. The pursuer was too late, but
he followed as fast as he could, for the
distance of q block or two, and then
wisely concluding that he had been
outwitted, he found his way, painting
with his chase back to the depot. The
mother was still at the depot, but her
heart was light. Her child was safe
with friends, and she was happy.

SAFETY in THE SURF. Since the
accident at Atlantic City, one of the
hotels has had surf boat properly
manned, stationed off its bathing place
during the hour usually devoted to the
surf. 1t is little singular that all the
hotels at the sea shore do not adopt
this precaution. In addition to these
they should also have stakes with
ropes attached to them for bathers to
hold on by, and they are needed for
the rescue of any person being carried
out beyond their depth. These pre-
cautions, which are attended with but
little cost, would enable the bathers to
save any person whose life was in dan
ger in the water, and make hathing at
these popular resorts one of the safest
of enjoyments.

AN eccencric gentleman named Mar
tin, is getting up q new sensation in
New York. He left Boston last week
in row boat, alone, and determined
to row all the way to Gotham. Mr..
Martin is vegetarian, not having
eaten any meat but once in three
years. His weight is l4O pounds /;
his diet is berries and fruit. He car
ries no water as the berries answer all
purposes for quenching thirst. His
outfit on leaving Boston, was two
pairs of pants, two linen shirts, two
undershirts for rowing, shawl, India
rubber coat, four quarts of whortle-
berries, some apples, coast chart, pock-
ct compass, note book, pencil, watch
and matches. Of course when be ar
rives at the metropolis, there will be
a public reception and feed.

THE CHocT Avs. We learn from the
Fort Worth CHIEF that the Choctaws
are about to call upon the General
Government for assistance to procure
provisions for the people of the Nation
as their crops have been almost entire
ly destroyed by the drought. We
learn from good authority that there
viii not be corn enough raised in the
whole Nation to last them till Christ
mas, and as the appropriation of the
mony due to the Nation failed in Con-
gress last session, they are going to
appeal to the Government for assis-
lance, in some shape to keep them
from starving.

ARRIVAL OF LADY FRANKLIN.
Among the passengers by the Adriat-
ic is Lady Franklin, widow of Sir John
Franklin, the Artic explorer, who lost
his life in his devotion to the cause of
science and geographical discovery.
Lady Franklin is now the guest of
Henry Grinnell, of New York, whose
name will go down to posterity, insep-
rably connected with that of Franklin.
to discover whose fate he performed SO
noble a part. The story of Lady
Franklin's devotion to her husband,
her unwaVering faith through so many
years of sorrow, that he was still alire,
and her Christian resignation to the
heart breaking truth that at last des-
troyed all hope, are household words
in every American family, as they are
throughout, the world, and will throw
around her in . more intense form.
that sympathy and profound respect of
the American community for her as
guest, which they have ever given her
as stranger Whatever part of the
country she may choose to visit, she
will find hearts and homes open to re-
ceiye her, end proud to pay her the
homage due to her virtues and her
trials.

BLoNDIN AND FARINI AT THE FALLS.
Yesterday afternoon these two seek
ers of mid-air notoriety, performed on
their ropes at the Falls. We are in
formed that great many people were
present. a steamer brought from
Hamilton c. w, to Niagara, six han
dred passengers to witnoss it. Earini
seemed to be more confident while per-
forming his featS, than on the first tri-
al. A small rope. with iron rings at
tached, was fastened to the cord, and
the madcap let himself down about
half way toward the bed of the river.
He there executed several perilous
maneuvers to the great delight of his
audience. Blondin also exhibited
himself, but the greater attraction of
Farini worked pecuniarily to his dis
advantage.

PROSPECTS OF THE Crops IN New
YoRK.-The winter wheat and earlier
Summer wheat has been secured in the
finest condition. The yield generally
exceeds expectations, both in quanti-
ty and quality. In the Hudson Valley
the rye and oats have generally been
secured in good order, but the yield is
lighter than usual, owing to the
drought The hay crop is small in
that region from the same cause. If
line be drawn through the state
north apd south, on the parallel of
Utica, it win be found that east of it
the crops are not up to the average,
while west of it crops are better than
for many years. Late wheat and oats
may suffer from the hot, dry weather
of the early part of August, but this is
the very weather for corn, of which
we shall have good crop. provided
there is not a killing frost before the
18th of September. In many local
tiles, potatoes promise well, but the
crop viii not be SO large as was ex-
pected. In the great dairy region,
pasturage has been abundant through
the month, and more than the usual
supply of butter has been made. The
high price of cheese has drawn it out
of the farmers hands, and there has
rarely been SO little on hand. About
the usual quantity of butter has been
made, but there is not the same active
demand. The small diaries make the
butter, while the larger make the
cheese. If the dairymen go into
August on good pastures, they have
little to fear for the balance of the sea-
son,

THE Library or CoNGREss. This
institution nos containcs about 60 900
volumes, exclusive of a large num-
Der of pamphlets, and about So
600 public documents the annual
appropriation is SIS, 900 for miscellane.
Gus and 1900 for law books. 1t was
established during the ADMINISTRATION
Of Jefferson, at his suggestion and by
his exertions. IT at first contained
abont $500 volumes and was des-
troyed by fire, when the British burnt
the Capitol in 1914. In the same
year resolution was introduced into
Congress to purchase Mr.. Jefferson's
private library, which was passed, the
books were bought and brought to
to Washington, and the library Of
Congress again organized. Various
valuable additions being made from
time TO time, the library contained, in
1851, $4,000 Volumes, During the
year it accidentally caught FIRE and 3d.
600 volumes were destroyed, and the
room very much injured. This acct
dent finally resulted in the room being
made perfectly fre-proof by construct
ing the alcoves and shelves Of cast
iron. Soon after an appropriation
OF $4,000 was made Ivy congress for
the purchase of books. This fund
was jrdicionsly laid out, and a
most excellent collection made of the
STANDARD and rare works. During the
recess of Congress The library is open

ANACONDA AT LARGE Among the
attractions which make the vicinity of
Boston so desirable a place of resi-
dence, is just now live and active
anaconda, which was, at the last ac-
counts, roaming about the village of
Somerville. He boarded for some
time at the Museum Of Natural His
tory, in Cambridge, but disliking eth
er the food or sleeping arrangements,
he SLIPPED ont for q change Of air.
For six weeks he was lost sight Of;
but the other day, two children were
playing in a garden 10 Someryille, and
there the lazy monster showed himself,
hungrily yawning. They fed to the
house and gave the alarm, and after
some time the boa was seen coming
very easily ont Of rye Geld adjoi-
ming the garden. He has taken up
quarters in a neighboring barn, where
he is still supposed to lie, and shows
no conscientious scruples about help
ing himself to chickens, many of which
are missing Meanwhile furnished
houses can be procured at moderate
prices in Somervilie. The anaconda is
thirteen feet long, and has notori-
ously bad temper. A white adder es-
capped him, and unless the greater has
eaten the less, more snakes may yet be
seen.
