A plan has undoubtedly been formed
IN England, says responsible journal,
for some time to destroy a number OF
well-known persons by means OF poisoned
food. Tho articles have been sent
anonymously hs presents.--usnally ac-
companied by q playful note 10 the effect
that the sender had little hopes OF mys.
tifying his friend the recipient, but
would. for the jokes sake, make the
attempt Sometimes these Judas gifts
would come by post. sometimes BY ex-
press. Cakes, sweetmeats and fruits on
different occasions have served as media
for the poison. In some instances n par
ticilRr cake has been wrapped up separ-
ately and addressed to the mistress of the
house. At one time, in case like this,
a pleasant little misSive described the
accompanying offering in these terms
" A few home made cakes for the chill.
dren those done up are favored on pur-
pose for yourself TO enjoy. You will
guess who this is from. j can't mystify
you, / fear. / hope this viii arrive in
time for you tonight, while the eatables
arc fresh" The carriage Of this parcel

on being analyzed, were found 10 contain
strychnine enough TO destroy a whole
family. II is lamentahle to add that the
historic parallel has been carried out in
this instance by the arrest OF a lady Of
reputable standing, who is charged with
the commission of the crime. She is n
Miss Edwards, n woman Of thirty-five,
and her intended victim il Mrs Raard
the wife OF Brighton physician. II is
said that the accused made a similar at
tempt on the life Of Mrs. Beard some
months ago, using poisoned chocolate
drops at that time 20 effect her purpose.
We're this case n solitary one il would OF
course be less remarkable what IN
strange, however, is that its discovey has
been coincident with that Of several
others almost precisely alike in the same
town, implying the existence of an epi-
demic OF this kind Of crime as curious ne
10 is alarming

TESTING DEATH. A new and very sim
pie method for distinguishing between
real and apparent death has been recent
Iy discovered by NJ. Laborde. When a
sharp steel needle-not cased only with
steef-is driven into the tissues OF liv-
ing man or animal, in short time il
loses its metallic lustre, and becomes
dim--or, in scientific language, becomes
oxidized while similar needle may re-
main an hour or more in the tissues of n
dead subject without undergoing any
apparent change. Hence, the oxidation
or non-oxidation OF the needle affords a
decisive proof whether death is real or
only apparent.

sit in a qasiut uld Knrdun,
With weathsr-stained, warra old wall,
And over the blaze Of the flowers
The brown shadows cooling fan.
And the long lawns stretch before me,
And bathe my eyos In their green
And the elms in the park stop ewayang,
For fear they should wake the scene.
And the tall white church on the hilltop
Shines like lighthouse tower;
And the sun seems 10 nod in heaven,
As he drips out his golden shower.
And the grcy-eyod wife W. smiling,
Half asleep. with her hand in mine,
TO see how her baby IN striving
To make the short daisies tSine.
And sit in peace in the garden,
And my soul has sense OF homo,
And nv brain is straining % bursting,
Thinking whence each may come.

running 30 its full compass, reyelled IN
the sweetest music they ever heard
Strains Of passionate sorrow, mingled
with the sorrowful cadence Of O funeral
dlrge, as the dying cantatrice sung her
life away.

while in mid-ocean, on the night OF
Aug IS. The Java was under full steam
when she struck the Annita amidships,
sinking her 20 suddenly that only one
out 81 the crew of twelve escaped. Al
though the sen was very high and the
night extremely dark, boats were at once
lowered from the Java and long search
made for the crew Of the iIl-fated vessel,
but only one man could be found. The
AnnIta was bound from Portsmouth 20
Quebec No injury was suffered by the
Java except the loss of the foretop-gal-

On the second day after the disaster the
passengers Of the Java passed resolutions
commencing the bravery and prompt
action Of the officers and men In search

expressing sympathy for the afflicted
families and friends. Over 81 900 was

until lust before the collision.
