Shocking Murder in Kansas,

A horrible murder was committed
near the Usage Mission, Kansas, on the
night of the 9th inst. The facts elicit
ed at the coroner's INCEST are as fol-
lows: j. p. Flanagan, the perpetrator
of the crime, had recently met with pc
cunlary losses, and resolved to dispatch
himself and family; and on the 9th
inst. procured chloroform, and, during
the night, administered it to his wife
and two little girls, aged ten months
and two years. About four o'clock in
the morning Mrs. Flanagan awoke
from the stupor produced by the chic
reform and discovered her husband in
the act OF driving a ten-penny nail into
the head Of one of the children, and,
flying TO the rescue of her babes, she
found them expiring from the effects Of
blows inflicted with 4 Ratchet and nails
She succeeded in disarming her hus-
band, gave the alarm, and he was taken
into custody. A letter was found
pinned to the wall Of the room adj
dressed to his relatives, In which he
states that In consequence OF his mind
being Ill such condition that he could
not do anything he determined to kill
himself and family, excepting his son

American Character.

sermon about the fire says:
You have no idea of the sadness and
the horror, and let me say the glory
and the beauty of that scene, for, while
the flames were sweeping along, and
Ieapiug like beasts, as if with Internal
instinct, there were some things about
us more beautiful and noble than lever
saw in this world before. For this
splendid American character then

specific Gravity Test for Potatoes.

1t is generally known that the val
tie Of potatoes depends upon their spe-
citic gravity, and that the heavier the
potato the greater amount of nitroge-
nous matter it contains This has sug-
gested the idea of a convenient test by
which the excellence of different vari-
cites can readily be determined, and
consists in the use Of saline solutions of
different degrees of strength. If, as
Stunning one variety as a standard, we
make solution of such strength that
tile potato will float about ut the mid
ale Of the mass, neither falling to the
bottom nor rising to the surface, and
apply the same test to other potatoes,
we may conclude that if one falls to
the bottom it is better, or if it rises to
the top it IS poorer, than the standard.
4 series of standards has been suggest
ed, therefore, by DIR. Neslee, of definite
percentages Of salt and water, thus pro-
ducing sliding scale applicable I'm
der any circumstances for the test III
question.

1 Miniature Village.

Bulletin, who has travelled Cup coun-
try" In California, writes thus:
&" Fifteen miles from the summit Of
Klamath Mountains. down the Salmon
River, IS the small mining town Of Saw
yer's Bar. It is the littlest mite of
place, projected on the smallest scale,
and has things arranged in the snug
gest fashion | have seen lii an American
village for great while. 1t is rs tight
and as trim and diminutive as any
Swiss or German hamlet. There is
scarcely two rods width of bottom
land, bordered by a steep hill, and the
town is only few rods in length; yet
in that extremely small place are
enough people packed together to fur
nish school Of over forty scholars, a
church, stores, hotels, &c, besides
countless little patches Of cabbages,
terraces of flowers or fruit, wee bits OF
gardens, &c. All the merchandise sold
in Sawyer's Bar is brought over from
Arcata, on the coast, distance of one
hundred miles, on pack mules, at II
cost of about five cents per pound
freightage."

III litigation. Some four years ago a
coach containing dozen persons fell
through defective bridge, and all the
passengers were more or less I'M ured
The town settled with most of them
but rejected the claims of others as un-
reasonable. Judgements amounting
altogether nearly $25, 600 have now
been recovered against the town by
these claimants, and the town has had
to pay its own witnesses, counsel fees
and other costs besides The valua-
ton of the town is little less than
S612, 600 and the whole cost of the rot
ten bridge Is at least about five per
cent, upon it, loss which few dollars
properly expended IN inspection and
repairs would have prevented.

Chicago in Ashes.
BY WIN. {. RICHARDS.

A City Sovereign in the golden West,
But yesterday magnificent in pride,
To-day the wall Of anguish from her breast
Wakes echoes to each mighty oceans tide
A vail of anguish wrung out by the flames
That licked her sTlendors level to the dust,
And bazoned hers the ch eff of ilstarred names,
That HI tory holds in melancholy trust.
Her matchess miracle of sudden rise
That Knocked at fable and enchantment's art
Is peerless now no more IL our sad eyes,
That see her glories like dream depart.
Her palaces were poems wrought in stone
HermaTts like Egypt's for the world poured grain
Her prairies girt her with i golden zone
Her fame seemed that OF Carthage come again
Bnt Roman legions at Ghicagos breast
Hurled no red bolts tlat haploss Carthage rent:
In peace the hot cup to her lips was prest,
And sfreIaG to her fILelal pyre she went.
o day of horror. day of ruthless woe,
That stripped the Vests young queen of al hcr
pridc
Her stately doncs and lofty towers laid low.
And Whelmed her homes in terror's crimson tide.
Checked are the currents Of her boundess trade,
Her giant grauaries smoke with smouldering wheat
Her daughters in her silks more arrayed-
Halt-clad and homeless, shiyer on the street.
If of her magic growth her heart beat proud
And in her stones and stocks she took delight
If rivals lightly called her fast and loud.
None Grudge her tears of pity in her plight.
Proud but benefcent, and fast to spend
The easy gold her skill was swift TO make;
OF arts and tolls at royal rate the friend,
And wisdoIns lover for its sweet sake.
Ab luciess queen-her strength and beauty sea rred
She lies to-day on ashes for her bed
And all the land in her despoil is marred,
And all its joy in her despair is dead.
The East and West their eager hands stretch forth
To pour their wine and oil at her scorched feet
In love and largcss blend the South and North
peoples pain and pity swift to meet
Her sons her crumbled greatness will rebuild,
When the blanChed terror flies their kindling lips
And the glad glow of pride again shall gid
Their queens fair face now prone in foul eclipse
