A BEAUTIFUL maiden at Lansingburg,
New York, having been afflicted with the
addresses of two lovers, usually about the
same time, adopted rather novel means
of Kidding herself of them. A few eve
nings since they called at her residence in
their best black suits. She left them to-
gether on pretense of going up stairs, and
in a few minutes the servant maid made
bold to enlist their services in the removal
of some flour in the kitchen. They went
to work willingly, and the maid found SO
many additional jobs for them to do, that
the poor fellows were finally glad to es-
cape from tho house without seeing the
object of their affections. They never
went again.

CRUELTY TO A CHILD.
A County Aroused and a Crowd
Looking for the PerPetratOr.

Looking for the PerpctratOr.
/, D. We learn by passengers who left Ma
poleon, Ark, Saturday evening, that
great excitement prevailed on account of
the cruel treatment of a little girl five
years old, by a man named Isham Burke
The child was bound to Burke by the County
Court some time ago, and the fact was
developed about a week ago that he has
been treating her in in a most brutal
manner. At one time he knocked her
down with a hoe; at another he burned
her in the nose with red hot iron,
and at various times has beat
and bruised her in most shocking
manner. A warrant was issued for the
arrest of Burke and his brother. The
latter stood his trial last Wednesday and
was discharged, but Isham Burke heard
of the warrant in time to make good his
escape. When our informant left Napo-
leon Saturday evening, a crowd of about
one hundred men had collected to go and
'1ook" for him. Everybody knows what
that means. They will never find him or
bring him back, though he may be found
afterWard early some morning under a
tree, with his feet off the ground. The
people of the county were thoroughly
aroused and indignant, and if Mr.. Burke
is wise he will not be found in that region
for some time to come.-Uenohi8

The Portland AdUertiSer mentions a
case of death resulting from the use of
jute switches, which happened to a young
lady in West Waterville last week. The
unfortunate girl had been showing signs
of disease for some time, and complained
of her head. She gradually grew worse
and became so sick that she could not
leave her bed. A physician was called,
suspecting the trouble, examined her
scalp with a microscope. He found it
literally alive with vermin. AL remedies
failed and the girl died. At the autopsy
the skull was found perforated by these
insects, and the brain much eaten away.
The young lady was employed in the
skirt factory in that town.
