Three Arms-An Athlete.

An Eastern paper gives IN account
Of . three-armed man, . native OF
North Carolina, whose name 10 VIII.
liam Jacobs. He is thirty eight years
Of ags. He has three wsll-developed
arms and hands, the member extra
ordinary having grown above the
right shoulder blade. It possesses
wonderful muscular power, although
shorter than the arms proper. His
left arm 10 the weakest Of the three,
and tho arm extra the strongest. 1t
hangs suspended down his back, and
can be raised and lowered ct will. No
one passing him would observe
deformity. At the age Of eight years
be began to exhibit remarkable evil
dences Of superior strength. His
father was well-to-do farmer, and
the young lad accomplished tasks that
surprised his father. He continued
upon the farm, and when sixteen
years old was remarked - the most
athlete and powerful young man In
tho country. His feats Of muscular
power astonished everybody 10 the
vicinity. During harvest he was tho
most profitable Of help, loading the
wagon and ct the same time holding
the horses reins. His laboring apparel
opened upon the back. and closed BY
button ing, the same as child's apron.
He possessed remarkable agility, and
could perform feats that weuld have
astonished the champions of the saw
dust ring. Bending backward, he
would bring the weight Of his body
upon this extraordinary arm, and
throwing himself, feet upwards, would
balance with the utmost precision.
SEEKING the limb Of . tree with this
same arm. he would raise his chin to
Q level with his hand, and then slowly
lower his body. Tnis he would repeat
fourteen times. when losing his hold
Of the limb, he would catch upon ~
under limb, and perform the same
feat three times. During this exhibi-
ton the muscles Of the arm would
protrude until they apparently seemed
ready to burst. Other tricks Of
strength he performed were equally
remarkable. When the guns Of Sum-
tor sent forth the defiant notes OF re-
beliion, Mr.. Jacobs became . volunteer,
and was one Of the 6rst to brave the
lsaden storm Of war upon the plains
Of the Manassas. He % distinguished
himself BY bravery that his command
ing officer recommended him for pro-
motion, and soon after he received
commission - captain, ranking a. one
OF the drill officers in the division to
which he was attached. At ono time,
coon after payday, some men Of his
company became beastly intoxicated.
He peremptorily ordered them to their
tents, but the spirit of rebellion was
rife, and they threatened an attack
upon their commanding officer. Re-
PaLsaae 70 has- uuarssrv no asviuneti
himself fos battle, and appeared before
the men, 10 their surprise. with three
arms In full play. He went st them
In sledge hammer style, and in . few
moments tanned the insubordinates
and sent them reeling to their tents.
At the Gloss Of the war he returned to
the farm, and has since remained
there.-Prdiyic Farmer.

What 10 Iamep

ZADoc PRArr, Of Prattsville,
Co., New York, was . noted farmer
and died in 1870, at the age Of eighty
years. He was known % the hus-
band Of FIVE wives and the tanner Of
Q million sides Of sole leather. He
prided himself on minding his own
business and making money by it.
He did some tall writing on butter
making in the reports Of the Depart
ment Of Agriculture, and he WAS writ
ten about great deal by general dali
~ and farm writers toward the close
Of his life. but al this did not salts.
fy the intense longing he seems to
have had for due appreciation among
the generation of the future. He did
not spend his substance in rearing .
pyramid on which to inscribe his ma.
terial achievements, but dedicated .
huge rock, Eve hundred feet high,
to the perpetuation of his fame. He
cut zigzag path upward along the
face Of rock, rendering it comforta-
bic pathway to tread, by carving
chairs, settees and tete a.tetes st in
tervals. Then his sculptor carved the
patriarch's bust and that of his son
70 - to face the village Of Prattsville
and the farm opposite. Whether he
intended in the beginning to surround
his own bust with those Of his wives,
but found it "too numerous" job,
we have no means Of knowing; 1t any
rate they do not appear. Instead Of
them his stony figure Is surrounded
by rude lettering, Of which these in-
scriptions are specimens: $4,000
pounds Of butter, made from 100 cows
in 1864, on the farm opposite"
81, ,OOO, 900 sides of sole leather tan
ned with hemlock bark in twenty
years, BY q. Pratt" Also other in
scriptions, one showing him to have
been an NJ. c., in 1914. But if Mr.
Pratt loved himself and his doinas,
he was not altogether sel6sh. He
had great affection for the dumb
brutes that had ministered 70 his vel
fare and his pleasure. There are,
accordingly, to be found on . tomb.
stone in front Of . mound, ON terrace
below the rock, the following com.
memorative inscriptions: "The fol-
lowing were the favorites Of over
d, 600 horses owned and worn out in
the service of q. Pratt: Bob, ~ years,
sorrel; Boyne, 18 years, bay; Prince,
30 years, gray" "Dogs-Csrlo, IL;
Rife, II; Mingo, 10-1e60." In re.
producing facts concerning Mr.. Pratt,
We have no particular point to make
or moral to draw, but give them
merely as outcroppings Of human ex.
centricity.

A few years ago It would have been
'leemed romantic. and even absurd In
the extreme. to have attempted the
establishment Of m order Of the above
name for the improvement Of the con-
dition or the farmers Of our land. But
TO any new proposals. for improvement
Of society however just or rational nu.
merous objections from different
quarters will be started. Di61cu lilies
are magnified into impossibilities, and
. thousand prejudices arc mustered
up against innovations on established
practices aud In favor Of existing In
stitutions. II refer to farmers clubs. J
In attempting TO establish such IN or
der the most formidable objection
would he its impracticability, and
there are not wanting even amidst the
light that is now shining around us
many individuals who are bold
enough to insinuate that its establish
ment is undesirable and impractica-
be. With regard to the practicability
Of this object no rational doubt can be
entertained II the machinery requisite
for its accomplishment were once
thoroughly set In motion; that this
object has never yet been affected ID
not on account Of its impracticability
or to any insuperabls obstacles which
lie In the way Of its accomplishment
but because tho attention Of the far
mer has not until lately been directed
to 1t.
Let general agitation be executed
on this subject-let the Importance Of
It be already proved and illustrated
let the necessity Of doing something
more than has hitherto been done in
this respect be fully established-let .
conviction be deeply impressed upon
the minds Of the farmers Of the utility
Of such exertions for counteracting the
existing evils to which they are SUBJ
jected, and have little doubt that
spirit OF imrovement Ia this respect
would ere long persuade the mass Of
the farmers.
Although many would stand aloof
and ever spurn at such movements,
yet / trust there is is still - much
