Satanic SliamDOOlng.

1t is recorded, by the San Francisco
Figaro, that Alcibiades Botteler used
to keep barber-shop, and invented a
shampooing machine. SO he fixed up
a continuance with kind of an iron
stand, from which two jointed arms
with steel claws protruded. These
claws were covered with chamois skin,
and the arms we're moved in any direc
ton by series of arms and levers.
Steam-power was obtained from the
factory next door. Mr. b. instructed
the shop boy how to start the machine.
and seating himself in the chair, he
placed claw on each side of his head.
The boy must have pulled the throttle
valve ont about foot too far, for in
about minute the steel claws clutched
Botteler's head so that he thought his
skull would crack, and the shampoo
ing machine began TO rear, and plunge.

A Novel Lottery.

The directors of the Dublin Greland)
Tramway Company hive become very
suspicious of their conductors, and
have been trying to circumvent them.
At first each conductor was given a
strip of tickets, and he was to give one
ticket to each passenger, who was then
to tear it up. The conductors receipts
were to correspond with his ticket
strips. But people hated the company
worse than the conductor, and would
not tear up the tickets; the conductor
would use them over again, and thus
his income wss kept up. Bat, nov,
the remedy is reached. Every ticket.
like the hairs of our head, is number
ed, but the number is printed on il /;
and at the end of each month the com.
pany has a grand lottery with 800
prizes, ranging from ten pounds to one
shilling. Each ticket has a chance in
the drawing. Nobody throws away
his ticket now; every passenger is too
busy looking after his interests. Per
sons OF nobility travel incognito in the
cars, for the sake of a chance in The
lottery, and the affairs of the company
are unprecedentedly prosperous. The
plan is soon to be initiated in England.
