SHOCKING TRAGEDY.-A terrible trage-
DIV was enacted in Cincinnati, in which a
boy twelve years old. named Frank
Schikk, the son of widow, was shot and
killed by Rev. Samuel J. Browne, an aged
local preacher of the Methodist Church.
1t appears that Mr.. Browne has been for
some time past greatly annoyed by boys,
who in spite of repeated remonstance,
have entered his premises to take his fruit
and commit other depredations. The day
of the tragedy number of boys were
playing ball outside, when a ball was
thrown into Brownies yard. Young
Schikk entered the premises to recover it,
and the old man fired at him with slugs,
one piece striking him in the breast, in
ficting wound from which the boy died
in a few moments. Browne was arrested
by the officers and was subsequently re-
leased on $4,000 bail. This terrible af-
fair created intense excitement in the
neighborhood of Brighton House, near
which it occurred. A large crowd assem-
bled in the vicinity of Brownies house
which is guarded by detachment of po-
lice, and there is danger from the temper
of the people that they will take the law
into their own hands should Browne be
found. 1t is most remarkable case, and
appears hard to account for, save upon
the presumption that Browne is not in
his right mind. He is eighty-six years of
age, one of the oldest citizens, and has
been considered hitherto above reproach.
He owns property to the amount of several
hundred thousand dollars.

How TO CoRREsPoND.-1. No letter on
business should be addressed to the
member OF the firm singly. 1t is always
presumed to be a private communication;
and if he be absent, it remains unopened
till his return. 2. All letters should be
dated. 8. Unless dated from cities and
prominent towns, all letters should give
the name of the county in which the
place is situated. 1t ought to be made
q penal offence to duplicate the name
Of town or village. T.. Allletters should
be signed, and plainly, too.

SAD ACCIDENTAL Seymour, Ind, a
man named Norris, while lighting hall
preparatory to theatrical performance,
let fall coal oil lamp in the midst of a
group of children. The lamp broke,
spreading the burning oil in every direc-
ton. and setting the clothing of the chill
drcn on fire. The little sufferers ran wild
ly through the hall, and before the flames
were extinguished three little girls were
so badly burned that they died in seven
hours. Norris was also badly, but not
fatally burned. 1t is said he was drunk,
and only his injuries prevented his being
roughly handled by the Mortified and in.
dignant citizens.

bow to Raise Money.

The North China News tells the follow
ing: An extraordinary feat has been per-
formed by Buddhist priest, with the
view of raising money to build temple
at Soochow, whence the man had come
OH begging expedition. He found peo'
pie Indifferent to his holy object, and very
unwilling to part with their dollars. With
devotio more than worthy of the cause,
he resolved to stir up some interest and
cause money to flow in by an extraordina-
ry expedient. He announced among the
Chinese that he would allow himself to
be locked up in wooden box for seven
days, during which period he would re-
main in an upright position, and without
food or sleeps On Wednesday afternoon
he was accordingly placed in a cage about
o. feet wide and 5. feet high, just suffi-
ciently large to admit him standing up
right. The bottom of the cage was stud
ded with nails, so that his feet should
have space only between the nails suffi-
cient for them to rest on, and couple OF
slight bars in front formed rest for his
arms. The native public were invited to
prove the genuine character of the morti'
fcation, by locking the good man them
selves, if they pleased, and about 30 peo-
pie brought locks of different kinds and
secured the door as many times over.
The cage was close one, with few
open bars near the bottom for the ad-
mission of air. 1t was placed in joss
room in Hoopeh road, passing in and out
of which crowd of people might be
seen day and night, during the seven
days, religious exercises being engaged in
the while, by the priests. The devotee
endured his painful incarnation with re-
markable fortitude, the only relief afforded
him being an occasional glass of water,
and he emerged looking to all appearance
little the worse. On examination, his
pulse was found to beat 81, and was steady,
while his arm was moist though hot
After his release, the cage was broken up
and sold peacemeal to the Chinese, every
nail bringing more than its weight in sill,
yer. The desired result of calling forth
liberal subscriptions was also attained.

they would scarcely have missed her.
The house was just as she left it; but as
she opened the door and heard the slow
ticking Of the clock, it seemed as though
years, not hours, had passed since she
went out so elate and glad. She sat down
in her chair not the woman she had been.
her heart beat slower; her hair appeared
to have turned from gray to white in
single experience. She had passed the
dividing ridge of life and WAS going down
on the shady side. She stayed her head
with her hand, and whispered to herself,
" Not my will but thine"

THE CALIFORNIA MUsTANG.-A Califor-
MIA paper, which fears that the native
California horse will soon be numbered
among the things of the past says -
"With all his faults, lie has some qualities
and points of real value that should be
preserved. He can thrive and subsist
where the American or English bloods
would starve; is fleet and sure footed as
the mule, willie his powers of endurance
in the harness or under the saddle are un-
equaled. He is small OF statue, but as
symmetrical as the Arabian; wild by ma
ture, and often vicious, but always spiri.
ted, and, with proper training and kind
treatment, frequently exhibits all the affec-
tionate sensibilities of the best breeds.
1t is no uncommon fel for him to carry a
good rider 100 miles in day, and it is
claimed that many of them can 60 much
further in that time. We have seen
specimens that, at the age of sixteen
years, were as gay and fiery as the best
five year olds, and that would kill the
most enduring of them on a short or long
journey. AS saddle horses they are pre-.
ferred by all who know them best, as they
are for all light work. 1t has always
seemed to US passing strange that no at
tempt has ever yet been made in Califor-
MIA to preserve the admirable qualities of
this ancient stock of horses in their puri-
ty. To permit them to ignobly perish, as
now seems likely, would be as singular as
unfortunate"

MURDERED IN CoURT-RooM. - The
Sheriff of Labette County, Kansas, with a
posse, pursued horse-thief and brought
him to bay in a piece of timber. The
thief made a stout resistance, and before
he was captured mortally wounded the
Sheriff, who died next day. The thief
was confined, and brought before Mag
istrate for examination. In the presence
of the Justice, the constables and the
bystanders, a brother of the deceased
Sheriff walked into the Courtroom, de-
liberately went up to the prisoner, placed
pistol behind his ear and blew his brains
out. The account adds that Ross, the
murderer, was arrested, but there are

Katrimony in Russia.

The reader cannot fail to be struck with
the sorrow that seems to be entailed upon
fair damsels in Russia by the prospect of
matrimony. We can easily understand
that in semi-savage state of society the
marriage bed is anything but bed of
roses. The wife of the savage is gener-
ally a beast of burden, who tolls and
plants, while her red lord is dreamily
doing away the hours that are not devo-
ted to war or the chase. Among rude
races, women are held to belong to an
inferior order, and to be a pollution at
red feasts. Hence, in South Africa
and in the New World the women are
excluded from any participation in sacred
rites. 1t can easily be understood how
ideas suggested by the degraded social
condition of women in q savage state
should survive the barbarism that gave
rise to them. and should linger on, when
there is nothing apparently to account for
their origin. To this cause we may
attribute the peculiar ideas of the Jews
as respects women; and when we remem-
Der the amenities of matrimony among
savages, we can comprehend the causes
that made marriage matter of purchase
or of force, and that gave rise to wife
capture as q mode of courtship. When
an Australian beauty is smitten, it is by
aid of boomerang. An impression is
made, not on her heart, but on her head.
To carry off bride without at first stun
ming her, would be grave reflection on
the successful suitor. In Russia the pur-
chase of the bride is formal and serious
affair. Her kosa, or plat Of hair worn
only by maidens, pays the penalty, and is
cut off and sold.
"Not for gold do mourn,
Nor mourn for bright silver;
For one thing only do mourn
For the maidenly beauty
Of my ruddy kosd.
The intending purchaser stands at the
door and bows to the company. Then he
tries to get at the kosa but the girls keep
him off, while the bride weeps and sobs.
Turning to her brother, or to one Of the
girls who represents him, she entreats
him to defend her and not to sell her
kosa; or, at all events not to sell it too
cheaply.
The girls sing
"Stand to it brotherl
Brother, hold out!
Sell not thy sister
For rouble, for gold"
The answer is shocking one in an age
like this, when matrimony is never synon-
ymous with a matter of money
"Dear to brother is sister,
But dearer still is gold"
