In this matter we have taken con-
siderable paines to get our infor-
nation from some one who saw the
transaction, and give it to our read
ers as related to us, without favor

On Tuesday evening last Jas.
Woods, of this city, and a man
named Mcdonald, from Greenbush,
entered a saloon in this place and
employed their time in playing
cards for money. During the game
the parties got into dispute about
q $4,000 bet, and high words were
resorted to on both sides until there
was prospect for q knock-down.
Policeman Thompson hearing the
noise put in an appearance, but in
hopes there would be no trouble.
went about his duties. Twice af-
ter he called around to see if all
was right, but there being no
signs of quiet Thompson called
marshal Scott and at once started
again for the saloon to quell the
row. When Scott and Thompson
arrived Mcdonald had made him
self scarce, but Woods was walking
to and fro, cursing, and under the
influence of liquor. Tho marshal
asked Woods to be quiet, and at
tempted to assist him put his coat
on, saving tha. he world take him

FIRE.-While Mr.. and Mrs. J.
r. Smith were absent from home
last Tuesday afternoon, their resi-
dence, on the north side, caught
fire and was entirely consumed.
The fire is supposed to have origi-
mated from some wood piled behind
the stove in the kitchen. The
most of tho household goods were
taken out by the neighbors before
the heads of the family arrived.
The engine, although promptly out,
did not get to the scene in time to
do any service. Loss from $1,000
to $4,000, and no insurance.

December, of smallpox, and that

Brought I'D by q Wolf.

All the world has heard the story of
Romulus and Remus who were brought up
by she wolf till they were of age to start
the enterprise of building Rome. We all
credited the story when we were young, but
rejected it when we come to reason about
the matter. But the reports of an English
missionary establishment in the north of
were captured from the wolves, which are
very plenty in that region. The boys were
apparently about seven years old when
taken from their wolf mates. One of them
was taken by some hunters who were en-
gagged in smoking out the wolves from
cave. He ran away on all fours, but he
was caught. The only sound he uttered
was whine, but his features showed unmis-
takably that he was a Hindoo boy. He
would at first wear no clothes, tearing them
off if they were put ON him would eat
nothing but raw meat, and Tapped up water
with his tongue. He was, atlength, taught
to walk erect, TO use a fork and spoon, and
to drink like human being. Although
treated with the greatest care he pined
away and died after he had been at the mis-
sion four months. The other boy has been
in the establishment six years and has now
laid aside most of his wolfsh ways. He
walks erect, but has a peculiar gait, owing
to the fact that he moves his hands at the
same time he does his feet. He has not
said word, but he exchanged his
whine for sound expressive of gratitude.
He wears clothes, though at first they were
source of annoyance to him. He has been
taught to do some work, but is neither
sloillful nor faithful in its performance. He
has lost all desire to escape, and has become
favorite with the other children.-Land

hand upon the glass, and by the
scratch of your finger, or by the
warmth of your plum, all the deli

there is in youth q beauty and puri-
~ OF character which, when once

restored a fringe more delicate than

ITEMS FOR THE TOILET.

To BEAuTIFY THE TEETH.-Dis-
solve two ounces of borax in three
pints of boiling water, and before
it is cold add one teaspoonful of
spirits of camphor, and bottle for
use. A tablespoonful of this mix
ture, with an equal quantity of
tepid water, and applied daily with
soft brush, preserves and beauu-
ties the teeth, eXtirpates all tartar
Gus adhesion, arrests decay, in
duces n healthy action OF the
gums, and makes the teeth pearly
white.
CARE OF NAILs.-Thc nails
should be kept clean by the daily
use of nail brush and soap and
water. After wiping the hands,
but while they are still soft from
tho action of the water, gently
push back the skin which is apt to
grow over the nails, which will not
only preserve them neatly round
ed, but Will prevent the skin crack
ing. around their roots (nail
springs), and becoming sore. The
points should be pared at least
once week; biting the nails
should be avoided.
To BEAUrIFY THE HANDs.-Rub
together in q mortar four parts, by
weight, of yolk of egg, with five
parts of glycerine. No better
ointment for tho hands can be pro-
cured. The compound may be
preserved for years.
PASTE FOR SCRAP BooKs.-Paste
made of wheat flour or corn starch
is more satisfactory than muscil.

Lrr THE OLD Man Is.-A good
story is told. of a widow in a
neighboring town. Her husband
died far away from home, and it
took so long for his remains to
reach New York, that his relic had
quite recovered her grief and was
giving a large lunch party when
they finally arrived. A wagon
drove up to the door and long
box was handed out. Curiosity
ran high among the ladies at the
window, and with one accord they
exclaimed
''Why Mrs. Jones, whatca that
be?"
Upwent Mrs. Jones eye glasses,
and after glance she cody said
"Why, it must be Jones come
home. Charley, run down and
open the door for the coffin"
