case has often been referred TO by the press. Mr.
Spaudng was the only son of the late Rev. Josiah
Spauding pastor of the Congregational church
in Buckland, who died in 1926. Just as he was
nearly ready for college, being tweGty-One years
Of age, be became violently and hOpeessly de.

was at church on Sunday, while his father was at
prayer, when he suddenly threw the psalm book

by his violence, when he was restrained with
chains for a couple of years, and then was placed
in strong cage in the garret Of the house, from
which he never came forth while he lived. No
clothing could be kept on him; but in severe
weather he would allow himself to be covered
with blanket, which lasted only till his propen.
sity for destruction became stronger than his fear
Of the cold. His cage was not high enough for
HIM 10 stand erect, and he remained constantly in
a sitting posture, leaning back against the timber
when he SLEPT. His limbs could not be straight

In fact, he lost the appearance Of a human
many years before his death, became demented
and idiotic. For some years before the death of
his parents, their poverty compelled them to
throw their only son upon the town for support as
a panper, in q town where rigid penuriOusness

Thus lived for sixty years, and thus died, one Of
the chronic insane poor" We find no record in
the medical journals of go long a period of in

st. Petersburg has lately been the scene Of a
horrible tragedy. The pstronness of a boarding
school for young ladies had expressed her disap-
probation OF their couture, which she considered
as too coquettish. The lady who had the SUPER
intendence Of the class was so much affected by
this censuIe that she ordered all the young ladies'
hsir.t be cropped quite short. This was regarded
as agrest lndigLy, and as soon as it was dark the
young ladies' attacked the supposed offender,
threw sheet over her head, knocked her down,
and maltreated her so seriously that she died in a
few hours. II turned out afterwards that these
paTsgons Of feminine propriety had made q mis-
take in the dark, and vented their fury on the
wrong person. The unhappy victim was what
would be called in England parlOr boarder, who,
the evening in question, hsd undertaken to dis
charge the duties OF the usual class teacher.

THE HAIR.-The ordinary length
of the hair of the head in women
varies from twenty inches to a yard.
in some instances longer even than
that; but they are Of unusual occur
renee; its weight is from five ounces to
eight ounces. A contemporary re-
lates an instance where the hair of a
lady's head attained the measure
ment Of two yards in length. But
its proper length for texture and
strength should not exceed twenty.
four inches, and it's value as long
hair is much deprecated in price
when it falls shorter. 1t has been
calculated by Withof that the beard
grows at the rate Of line and half
per week, which gives q length Of
six and half inches in the course
of the year, while for q man Of eighty
years twenty.seven fsst would have
fallen before the razor.
We are informed that the beard of
the Burgomaster Hans Steiningen
was SO long that upon one occasion,
having forgotten to fold up the same,
he trod on it as he assembled to the
Council Chamber at Brunn, and was
thereby thrown down and killed.
And still further we may cite from
Ebls that at the Princes Court Of
Eldam there is full length painting
of carpenter whose beard was nine
feet long, SO that when engaged at
work he was obliged to carry it in q
bag. At the industrial exhibition of
1862 there were exhibited specimens
of human hair taken from English,
French, and Italian ladies, the long
est specimens having been cut from
one of our own countrywomen. 1t
was a lock of jet black hair and
measured seventy-four inches in
length.
