Al correspondent Of the Tribune says
'The war of women against whisky
has commenced in Perrysville, Ash
land County, Ohio. Al man opened a
rum shop 10 that place recently and
the woman did not like it. They pro-
posed to buy him out but, as he in
tended to build up a large trade, he re-
fused to sell. The woman, however,
we're determined that he should not
remain and so, since he refused the
very liberal terms they offered. they
formed in line, and, with axes on their
shoulders, marched to his place, ahd
deliberately broke in the heads of all
his barrels. Of course. the man was
angry, and brought a suit in the county
court; but was beaten, after incurring
heavy expense. The people of this
part of Ohio honestly think that the
next war in this country will be be-
tween the woman and whisky and,
though there may not be much blood
she'd, you may rest assured rum will

men of Ashland County have taken

Keep Out Of Debt.

Half the perplexity, annoyance and
rroubIe that men have in this world is
in consequence OF getting into debt. 1t
seems to be natural for some people to
6uv and incur Obligations without
measure, so long as they can avoid
paying ready cash. Give S1e OF this
sort a chance TO buy on credit, and the
question of price and conditions OF
payment are matters that he cares but
little about. But what crop of troub-
1e springs mp from the seed of debt.
How many sleepleSs nights result from
it how many gray hairs its troubles
bring and how often it shoTtens life
sometimes leading to suicide and muir
der. And yet how easy a thing il is to
keep clear Of this horrible monster.
With the exception of cases of sickness
and the like compelling poor persons
TO incur debt for their maintenance.
there is but little necessity for getting
into such trouble. Every young man
should form q fixed and unalterable de-
termination, before commencing his
active business career, not to incur one
dollar Of Indebtedness under any cir
cumstances. Never borrow. Never
buy anything unless you have themon-

Facts About the Sun.

The sun is distant from the earth o.
OOO, 900 of miles, its diameter is S50,0
miles or more than one hundred times
that of the earth. If placed where the
earth is, its circumference would not
only include the moon. which is 23O, 900
miles from the earth, but would reach
out past it nearly as far again. A man
standing on the sun would be crushed
flat by his own weight, if he could stand
the heat long enough. The heat OF the
suns surface is equal to that which
would be produced by burning six tuns
of coal per hour on each square yard,
1t is very much greater than would be
required to melt any metals known on
earth. The most brilliant light that can
be manufactured by chemists looks
like black spot if compared to the sun.
The outer surface of the sun is COM
posed of scales about the shape of
willow Leaf, and perhaps one thousand
miles long. 1t is those that give out the
light and heat. A great distance below
this outer coat there is n layer of dark
clouds, likely of the same material; !;
another great interval, and the solid
surface of the sun. The sun travels
about million Of miles day, and y yet
in the last two thousand years il has
not travelled one-sixteenth part of the
distance to the nearest star. In fact,
there is hardly any perceptIble change
in its position among the stars, and Of
which Sirius is large enough to take
two or three hundred like it.-TCon-
densed from Hershel's Lecture.

Deep Sea soundlngs.


L. r. PouTtales, gentleman engaged
in the United States Coast Survey,
dredged along the course Of the Gulf
Stream. Starting northeasterly from
Florida, he found the bottom, for four
or five miles, made up. of the common
coral SAND of that neighborhood, with
very scanty trees Of life. The next
area, from ninety to- three hundred
forming plateau, is rocky floor made
living shells. Life was abundant, con-
sisting of lamp-shells, star fishes, crus-
taines, and mollusks generally. There
were also many bones of the manatOe,
a dolphin-like animal, usually found
living in shallow water. The third
area was the regular and common
ocean bottom, from two hundred and
fifty to three hundred fathoms, cover
ed by the chalky remains of fOraminif-
era. He also dredged the bottom of the
Ocea an of the coast, and found, first ex-
tending from the North of Florida to
MOntauk Point, n ear Block Island, r.
T., "a bottom of sihceous sand, perhaps
hundred miles WiC7t. Outside of it was
calcareous bottom, occupying the
whole area south of Georgia. Bet W cen
the two, off the CarOltnaS, is a limited
deposit of green sand, containing the
foraminifera. His operations, it. is
said, open a new chapter in natural
history, disclosing the various fsunee
at the bottom of the ocean. Among the
animals obtained were some that had
been extinct since the crelacIous and
tertiary periods.

A THRILLING Scene.


Here is a thrilling romance OF French
extraction: At the theatre in Douai,
during the first performance of Often
bach's new operetta, a young actress
who appeared for the first time, was
hiss5d. She turned deadly pale, drew
poniard from her bosom and tried to
stab herself. Fortunately, the ether
actors succeeded in wrestling the Weap-
on from her hands. The performance
was interrupted for half an hour, and
when the curtain rose again the mana
ger appeared and said to the highly eX-
Cited audience that the young actress
would reappear, but he begged them
not to insult her, she was highly talent
ed, and 8 little encouragement given to
her would at once elicit the full splen-
dor of her talents. The gallant French
men burst into deafening applause
when the young girl came forward
again, and encored the first air, which
she sang in a tremulous voice. This
mark Of success vtsibly animated her
courage, and she achieved a great tri-
umph. It was afterwards ascertained
that she had gone on the stage to sup
port her old mother, and the failure of
her first debut would have exposed
them to extreme poverty. Hence her
despair when the kissing burst forth. -
