The good Redemptorist Fathers have
been holding great Mission in St. Alphon-
sus Church, South Fifth Avenue, N. r., and
their efforts were eminently successful.
The sacred edifice was thronged nightly by
the male portion of the gregation-in.
Guiding professional men, mechanics, s+ore-
keepers, laborers, and men representing
every avocation. The. church was literally
packed from tire transept 10 the porch and
there was not an inch of standing room in
the assies or galleries. A great mission
cross was suspended from the walls on the
Gospel sid of the altar of the Blessed Vir-
gin, and the sanctuary was ablaze with
light. Inc Rev. Father Henning, bril-
liant young orator, preached forcible SER
mon. AT the close of the Mission q con-
gregation of over 5000, composed exclusive
ly of men, was dedicated to the service of
the Blessed Virgin by Father Burke.
On one Sunday, Rt. Rev. Bishop Wood,
Of Philadelphia, confirmed 5O7 persons in
that city.

Very Rev. Father Hayden, c. NJ, the
Visitor of the Congregation Of the Mission
in the United States, spent several days of
the present month with our Rev. faculty,
in consulting for the interests of the COM
mEnity. His visits, productive of pleasure
and profit as they are, would rejoice
everybody at Niagara if more frequently
made. His piety, kindness and pleasant
pess are a source Of joy and edifcation to
all who meet him.-Inder Niagdreasis.

SINGULAR STAMPEDE OF RArs.-A week
ago the roads In the lower part Of Hopewell
township were literally covered with rat
tracks. These tracks marked the migration
of the rats In the night. The movement oc.
cupied two rights, and 90 closely did they
travel that the entire width of the sapdy
road was covered with the foot-markr; even
the rats were also in this way marked, It
is certain that the two companies must
have numbered several hundred individu-
ala. The place where these tracks were wit
Deased was not far from Lanes w-mill.
1t is No new thing for these vermin TO mi
crate or change quarters in THE. sinRular
manner. But inssmQch az they must com
prise the assembled occupancy of MANY
places, and as these places in this portion
Of the pines are very widely scattered, the
whole affair is not without singular inter
est. How do they communicate their in
tenttons SO as to act with such unanimity
This stream ofrat life was made ND of con.
tributiOns from houses and barns, and per-
haps mills, from varying distances. Then
comes the sagaoity of taking two nights
for the trsmp.-that is, Of dividing into two
companies; for this was assuredly a wise
precaution against tire danger of being de-
etroyed. 1t must be confessed that there
ts more in this matter than any ones mil
osophy is capable of answering. In Europe
it is pretty we'll known that the barn rats
are accustomed to these migrations in the
Spring OF the year. But beyond the Oh.
served facts, how little does any one know 2

A MID-AIR CoMPRoMIsE.-Not many
years ago, and not far from the city of FL
mira, at n locality known as the "Female
college," the circumstances we are about to
relate took place. 1t seems that the princi-
pal of the college overheard u plan among
n number of his young lady students for
drawing a young gentleman up TO one Of
the third-story rooms, ''in "A basket at
night" as no gentlemen suitors were per-
mitted to visit their college lady-loves, and
see them alone, under the strict rules o. the
institution. The principal acted according
" and at the appointed time was on the
designated spot, and when the basket was
let down, took the lovers place, gave the
"signal twitch" and commenced going up
toward heaven drawn by a trinity of angels.
When two-thirds up, the angel expectant,
on looking down from the window, discov-
cred to her terror and dismay that instead
| of her lover she had another man in the
basket, and nearly frightened out of her
wits made the facts known TO her fair help
ers in mischief with the pertinent inquiry
| of, "what shall we do What shall we dor
| Oh ! girls, girls, what shall we do ?" Where
upon one of the number noted for her cool
ness and presence of mind in trying emer-
gencies, said Here you hold on TO this
cord, now, do just as l tell you, and I'll
take care of the man, no matter who he is,
or where he comes from" Then taking out
her pocket knife and opening ii, she leaned
out of the window and in a low voice, said,
"Who are you there in that basket?" No
response. 81 say, who are you there in
that basket? Do you hear ? l have a knife
in my hand, and unless you answer this in
less than ten seconds / will cut this rope"
"Why, it's your principal; don't you
know me? Don't for mercy's sake cut
the rope a! Keep your knife farther away
from itv' "Well, you are in a pretty fix,
professor, a pretty fix indeed, and hang
ing between heaven and earth, between life
and death. What do you think ought to be
done with you n principal of a female
college, who thus endeavors, at night, to
clandestinely reach the room of a lady stu
dent, ought to be severely punished, and
also exposed" sob! l beg of you not to
harm me nor xpos me, but let me down
again carefully, and don't let the ropc slip?"
Professor said the shrewd beauty, "on
one condition only will we comply with
your request" "Name i'll Name itP'
"You must solemnly promise that none Of
us who have been engaged in this little ro-
nance shall be disciplined for it, and that
you will make no mention Of II TO a living
soul while we are inmates of the college,
with the understanding that we are to OBJ
serve the same promise. What say your
81 promise-solemnly promise" Every
well. Hold up your right hand. You do
solemnly swear that you will faithfully

This is an age of inquiry and people are
beginning to realize the magnitude OF the
evil caised by the use of injurious compounds
Tor the hair, which are prepared and forced
Into market, by men who are not practical
physicians, and who may not be aware Of tho
injury they are producing. These prepara-
tions have been analysed by competent chem
lists, and shown to contain poisonous sub
stances, causing Nervousness, Headache, Par
alysis, and often fatal results.
In contrast with such injurious articles, we
Gall attention to the Hair Rcstorer prepared
by DR.. r. Greene, Superintendent Of the Dos
Ton Medical Institute, who has been n sue
eessful physician in Boston for more than o
quarter Of a century. DR.. Greene uses Veg
etable Remedies only, and can assure the pub
lie hat this Hair Restorer will do all that is
claimed for it, without n possibility of injury.
90 hare tested a sample Of DR.. Greene's Hair
Restorer, and find that no poisonous metals or
Injurious matters erist in IL. o
G.. n. IA CKSON, State Assdyer."
The use of this Hair Restorer for twenty
FIVE years has tested its superiority as u dress
ing, and its power to preserve the hair and
scalp in a healthy condition. 1t removes
dandruf, prevents the hair from falling of,
preserves its natural color, restores it when
prematurely gray, renders it soft and glossy,
promotes its healthy growth, and is the best
dressing ever discovered. While other prep
~arations are sold at almost any price, DR.,
Greene's Hair Restorer has sustained its good
qualities, its price, and its reputation. II is

We have said above that II our view of n
swiftly rotating wheel could be limited to
a very small fraction Of n second, we should
see II us distinctly as If 1t were motionless.
We can accomplish this by lighting up the
wheel by nm electric spark in a dark room.
Wheatstone has proved that the duration
of the spark Is not more than 1-2i000 of n
second and viewed under this briefillum-
nation, a wheel rotating at the rate of a
hundred times n second appears to be alb
solutelv at rest. A single picture of it Is
formed in the eye, and the light Is gone be-
fore second impression can be made up
on the rctina. For the same reason objects
made visible by a flash of lightning appear
stationary, no matter how fast they may be
moving.
The fact that we do not cease to see OBJ
iects while winking is Of course explained
by this principle of persistence of vision.
The eyes are closed for less than the eighth
of second, and the impression upon the
retina is renewed before it has time TO fade
away.-JourRdt Of Chemistry.
