AN INGENIOUS DEvIsE.-A sergeant with
about twenty-five soldiers had been sent out
some miles from Fort Defiance, New Next
CO, to guard some stock which were sent TO
Craze. when they found that the party was
surrounded by about four hundred hostile
Navajoe Indians. The brave and skillful
sergeant took position on an eminenee. and
by avolley from the long shooting rifles OF
his party at first drove off the sayages, who,
however. soon rallied, aud were prepared TO
storm the small party on all sides. The
sergeant, in taxing his brain for an expedi-
ent by which to convey intelligence of the
desperate peril in which his party was placed.
took single dog which had accompanied
the party, fastened to his collar note writ

er at the fort of his situation, took tin cup
in which he put some pebbles. which were
confined with piece of cloth over the top.

REsroaIEe DkMkoRD VELvrr.--Tbe Nm.
:tor de Ia Salad. gives the following method
for restoring velvet to its original condit;on.
Il is well known that when velvet has bssn
wet, not only its appearance is spoiled. bns
it becomes hard and knotty. To restore ito
original sOfsness, it must be thoroughly
damped on the wrong. side, and then 6eld
over very hot iron. care being taken M,
to let it touch the latter. In e short TIM
the velvet becomes, as 1t were, new again
The theory of this is very simple. TIL
heat of the iron evaporates the water THROUGH
the tissue, and forces the vapor out of The
upper side; this vapor passing between the
different ibres, separates those which ado
hered together in hard punches. If the
velvet were ironed after dampiRg, an exact.
" opposite result would be obtained II 10
therefore, necessary that the substance
should not come in contact with the beatsJ
iron.

FREE FIGHg1NG IN AN UNINcoRPoRATED
TowN.-A citizen of Memphis. upon his
return from trip to Arkansas, gives the
following account of part of his expert
ence in that State "Having occasion to
stop at a small town on the river, I was COM
PEELED to remain over Sunday. After the
usual cogi:ations incident to o Sabbath
morning, I strolled through the only street
in the place, and halted at the grocery,
around which crowd of dozen people
were congregated. I remained there three
hours, and in that time man was shot and
fatally wounded, and two others seriously
stabbed, in three separate fights. Being
from fighting country myself, my equa-
nimity was not seriously disturbed. but
was rather surprised that, after the ARRAYS
were over. the perpetrators of the shooting
and stabbing should resume their previous
occupation with seeming unconceTn. Turn

you arrest nobody here?' .Oh, no, was the
answer, 'sce oin't Incorporated get" So

Fun AT HoME.-Don't be afraid of lit
tie fun at home, good people I! Don't shut
up your houses lest the sun should fade
your carpets and your hearts, least hearty
laugh should shake down some of the musty
old cob-webs there! If you want to ruin
your sons, let them think that all social en-
joyment must be left on the threshold with
out, when they come home at night. When
once home is only place to eat, drink
and sleep in, the work is begun that ends in
gambling houses and reckless degradation.
Young people must have fun and relaxation
somewhere. If they do not find it at their
own hearthstones. it will be sought in other,
and perhaps less profitable places. There
fore, let the fire burn brightly at night, and
make the house-nest delightful with all
those little arts that parents SO perfectly un-
derstand. Don't repress the buoyant spir-
its of your children : half an hour of mer-
iment round the lamp and fre-hght at home
blots out the remembrance of many q care
and annoyance during the day, and the best
safeguard they can take with them into the
world is the unseen influence of a bright
little domestic sanctum.-LJe illustrated.

Love of once.

Queer men must have lived in the days
of Gov. Winslow and Bradford, if We COM
pare them with the generation now upon
the stage. Just think moment of men so
aYerse to holding Office that compulsory
laws had tosbe enacted thereof The au-
thentic record informs rs that in 1898 our
Puritan fathers enacted a law requiring thai
any person who should be elected thereaf-
ter 10 the Office of Governor, should pay a
fine of thirty pounds sterling if he would
not serve. Strange, indeed, when eview
the serambling after Office that eharacterizes
the present age Pine them for being un.
willing to wear the honorsi The trouble
is not 10 find candidate who is content to
remain unchosen. By "hook or crook, !"
each single one is determined to secure the
Office. It would be quite new thing un-
der the sun to see our administration at
Washington imposing a fine on those who
refuse political promotion. Their perplexi-
ty now among the army of Office seekers
that infest the head quarters is to decide who
shall be he>fortunate individuals. Neither
is it trivial perplexity. We imagine that
they are often at their "wits end'' to know
where they are to bestOw the bubble. A
host of hands are up to catch, while only
one can grasp and hold it. ss
Gov, Winthrop says in his journal
,sMr. Edward Winslow was chosen Gov
ernor of Plymoth, Mr.. Bradford having
been Governor about ten years, and now
having by Importantly got of. -
By importantly pleading, entreating. be-
Hseeching, and praying not to be elected
1t becomes almost laughable to think of po-
litical wire-pullers imPortuning their friends
to pass them by and leave them uneursed
by office. We imagine that out of. the hun
dreds who besiege the dispensers of civil
honors, great portion of them have to be
importuned to go home and be content to
live in obsurity, for which they are singu-
larly fitted. .,---..
There has surely been great change in
this regard since the days of the Puritans.
Nor is i: change for the better. For this
insane strife for political distinction leads to
chieanery and fraud of the deepest dye. 1t
has introduced elements of fearful charac
ter into our council halls. To-day porten-
tious evils, hang over US in murky clouds in
consequence of this insatiats love-of office.
Yet not half the sins perpetrated for the
sake of Office ever come to the public eye.
The unwritten history of this department is
probably more strange and tragic than the
written. ..

that of the lovely Princess Alexandria of

At dinner she would infinitely examine her
plate, and if she saw the slightest speck on
it, would send for another. She would
then turn the napkin round and round to
examine every corner, and often rise from

A CHILD DEvouRED BY RArs "A poor

A CHILD DEvouRED BY RATS IA poor
Irish woman, named Mary Common, about
80. years of age, applied for admission to
Bellevue Hospital. She was at once taken
in, and placed in what is known as the
'swaiting room,' where there were already
several patients. During the evening she
was attended by the physician, who. did all
that was necessary for her, and having made
her comfortable, left her for the night, not
anticipating that child would be born be-
fore morning. He promised to see the wo-
man again early in the morning. and aecor-
dinghy he visited her at an early hour on
Monday. In reply to his question regard
ing her condition, the suffering woman told
him that she had been seized with the pains
of labor during the night. and had beende-
livered of child. The physician did in
deed find child, but in what horrible
condition. The infant was dead, and its
nose, the upper lip, the toes, and half the
left foot. had been devoured by rats. The
poor woman was aware that her child was
dead, but had no idea of its mutilated con-
dition. When questioned regarding the af-
fair. she stated that shortly after the child
was born she felt something which she sup
posed to be rats running about the bed, but
she was too feeble and sick to drive them
