A FAMILY ScALpED The Dallas (Texas)
Herald tells the following lively story:
\ whole family was suddenly made bald
headed the other night 10 this city by their
hair catching fire from a candle. The father
had brought home curious toy which was
taken to the table for closer examination OF
its character, and all leaning over to Inspect 1t,
the hair of the mother ignited and with electric
suddenpe5s communicated with the hair OF the
others. Iu less time than it takes to, write It,
family of six we're made bald headed by hre,
aud with the damages that fire did on the out
side of their heads, it was much better than
having fire on the inside of their heads.

BISHOP CUMM1Ns INTERVIEWED In con-
versaton with reporter in New York on the
subject of his action aud the probable future
Of the pew ecclesiastical organization, Bishop
Cunln,inS stated that his congregation IN that
city would not be organized before Christmas or
the first Sunday 10 January, owing to the want
OF copies ofthe Prayer Book of 1888. ln re-
Spouse to question asking the reason for IN
shutting his reform movement, the bishop re-
piled that he was obliged TO sanction by his
official presence ceremonies he deemed intro
duc,ive of error, and to remain 10 a communion
whose practice aud worship he condemned did
not to him seem honest. He did not think the
dcviations Of ritualism could be corrected with
in the church. In regard to the prospects of
the Reformed Episcopal Church the Bishop
felt sauguine, stating that there were many
Prcsbyterians in sympathy with the movement,
and that several Of the Episcopal clergy of
Philadelphia who had signed the circu lar con-
dcmnatory of bis course had expressed regret
for their act.

A CHILD SMoTnERED TO DEATH.-Ou We'd
uesday night Of last week wedding. took place
at the residence of Mrs. Jane Davis, not tar
from Buckingham &. ii. Amongst the guests
were Mr. VIM. Carter a nephew of Mrs: Jane
Davis, who was accom- panied by his wife and
her infant child Upon arriving at the house
Mrs Carter laid her child, (which was asleep, on
bed and spread her shawl over it., Other
guests came also, and not observing the, child
threw their shawls careessly on the bed' and
when the mother went to look after it some
time after her arrival she found it dead, having
been literally smothered to death BY the shawls
which had been thrown upon it. This sad &C.
cideut changed sceeue Of gayety into one OF
mourning, and our informant, who was presee!nnt'
says he has never in the course of a ioug llfe
witnessed anything like the agony OF the mo.n'
er as she clasped her dead child in her arms,
and of the sympathiziug friends who gathered
around her when the heart-rending accident
became known to them.-Lynchbnrg Neaos.

AN IMPORTANT legislative proposition
has been introduced into the Illinois
Legislature in the shape of bill requir-
ing every authority within that State
having the power to assess taxes to re-
port annually to the Auditor of Public
Accounts the amount, rate and object OF
the taxes assessed by it, and also requir-
ing from the several municipal authorities
annual statements of the indebtedness of
such municipality, together with the rate
of interest which such debt bears, and
the objects for which it was created.
The last census furnishes some interesting
figures on the debts of towns, cities, and
counties and States in this country, from
which it appears that the public indebted
ness of ali kinds, bonded and floating, ex-
cept national, in 1870, was 1864, s5,o67,
or more than third as large as the nation
al debt. OF this amount 1924, TAI 900 is
bonded State debt, $l57 100000 bonded
county debt, and $500, 10000 bonded
municipal debt. In the totals, New York
leads off with 100000, 900; Pennsylvania
comes next, with ss9, 900. 900; and Massa
chusetts comes next, with se9,2l1 900
When the full significance of this vast ant
complex system of public mortgage is un
derstood, the Importance of the passage o
some such law, in other states besides Hi
nois, of once becomes manifest.

periods to which they relate. The present
edition is got up chiefly with an eye
to the convenience of the reader, and the
volume may be easily carried in a Sir-
sized pocket, to be enjoyed in some favor
lite retreat or to beguile the tedium Of a
long journey. The type is clean and
finely cut, the paper of good quality and
the binding neat and flexible. The text is
complete, with notes and glossary to each
volume of the series. Scribner, Wexford
& Armstrong, of New York, are the pub
fishers. For sale at West, Johnston &
Co.'s, in this city.
We have also received from Messrs.
West, Johnston & Co. second volume of
the series, namely "GUY MANNERING ;
OR THE AsTRoLoaER." This novel is
one of the finest among collection OF
almost matchless companions. In its
pages the inimitable Dominic Sampson
makes his appearance, the quaint and sim.
pie minded scholar in strange contrast
with the weird gipsey figure of Meg Mer
rifles Dandie Dinmount, the staunch
hearted Scotch farmer, stands opposed a'
one type of physical manhood to Dirk Hat
terrick, the fierce Dutch smuggler; ant
the skill of Pleydell, the keen-witted ad
vocate, is brought into contrast with tn
cunning of Glossin, the attorney. Nowher
else do we remember such skillfu
blending of the events and feelings Q
everyday life into wild romance.

III. CRAIG, of New York, and former
" at>the head of the Associated Press in
that city, announces that the new system
of automatic telegraph on which he has
been engaged for several years is finished
and in practical operation. BY this system
it is claimed that it is entirely feasible to
telegraph and receive in clear, distinct
characters 1000 words per minute between
Washington and New York, a wire circuit
of 800 miles, which is fully equal to the
average Of Morse line circuits and that by
the use of certain kind Of automatic re-
peaters, messages can be sent any num-
Der of thousands of miles at the
rate of 600 words per minute. The
matter to be sent by this new system
is prepared by means of perforating
machines, the use Of which can easily be
learned by any person of ordinary intelli'
gence in ten days. time. These per
forming machines can turn out the mes
sages ready for automatic transmission a
the rate Of from 100 to 40 words ;
minute. If the new system will really
accomplish what Mr.. Craig claims for it
it is an invention second in importance
only to the discovery of the electric tele
graph itself.

FrrrEEN wears ago 1850 the annu

FIFTEEN years ago 1850 the annual
consumption Of railroad bars in the United
States was 447 ,65S tons, of which 339, 439
tons were imported. and 10S,olG tons only
were manufactured here. 1t will be seen
by these figures that of the total American
consumption of railway bars at that time,
less than one-third was Of American man
ufacture, and more than two-thirds was
imported. Since that time there have
been vast changes, both in the amount
consumed and in the proportions of domes-
tic and foreign manufacture. The figures
for 1872 show consumption of railway
bars in the United States amounting to
4,504,50l tons, Of which $4,000 tons
were imported. The old conditions are
thus reversed, about two-thirds of our
railway bars being made in our own coun-
try, and about one-third being Of foreign
manufacture.

THE amendments to the postoffice APP
preparation bill considered in the Senate on
Friday are of considerable interest. The
one prohibiting free exchange between
newspapers was taken up and agreed to.
Congressman are evidently determined to
show the press no favors just now; how
ever this will scarcely tend to injure any
journals except the smaller ones. 1t
will be difficult for them to secure a
very full exchange list Under the new
system. There was another provision
which appropriated 100000 additional to
the poor impoverished railroads of the
country for the transportation of the
mails. The pretext for this action is that
the roads have put postal cars on their
routes, which have cost them considera-
