A Member of the typographical Union
Refused Burial by a Catholic Bishop.

Yesterday morning, at 8 O'Clock, the
friends and relations of poor Chabot,
the printer who was last week drowned
in the harbor, followed his remains to
the grave in the Roman Catholic Gene
terry, but, strange to say, the authorities
at the last moment refused to allow the
body to be inferred. Upon inquiries
being made, it was stated that a note
had been handed to Bishop Bourget in
forming him that the deceased was a
member of secret society inimical to
the Catholic faith, and that consequent
ly he had felt himself constrained to
prevent the burial of the deceased in
consecrated ground. This was dread
full blow to the friends of Chabot, whose
only connection was with the Montreal
Typographical Union No; 81, which, Of Of
course, is very far from being secret
society. Several persons attempted tc
have the order withholding burial re-
scinded, but with no success. Much
indignation is expressed by the printers
generally at the Bishops conduct.

Benefit of Laughter.

Probably there is not the remotest cor
ner or little inlet of the minute blood
vessels of the body that does not feel
some wavelet from the commissions of
hearty laughter. The blood moves more
ively-probably its chemical, electric,
or vital condition is distinctly modified
it conveys different impression to all
the organs of the body as it visits them
on that particular mystic journey when
we are laughing, from what it does at
other times. And so, we doubt not, a
good laugh may lengthen our lives, con-
veying a distinct stimulus to the vital
forces. And the time may come when

they are apt to do at present to the In

Lassoing a Zion.

One day last week, as Samuel Matti-
son was riding through the hills OF San
Lorenzo, he suddenly came face to face
with a large, full-grown California lion.
In an instant his lasso, that indispensa-
BILE article to the mountain ranger, was
circling above his head, and with the
dauntless courage characteristic of Sam,
he sent the fatal moose with unerring
aim around the neck of the lion then,
suddenly turning, he plunged the rowels
of his spurs deep into the fanks of his
well-trained horse, and dragged the
animal few hundred yards, when he e
dismounted and buckled strap around
the jaws of the lion, which was COM
pletely exhausted from the choking ii
had received. He then bound and
packed it upon the horse, aud took it tc
the house, not far distant, where he Sc
cured his honship, which soon recov
cred, when Sam found he was like the
man who bought the elephant; He has
as a trophy of his reckless daring.

Ozone as a Disinfectant.


A writer in the British AfedicGLJour-
nal recommends the manufacture of
ozone in the wards of hospitals, for the
purpose of their disinfection. He as
serts that their want is a proper supply
of ozone-that is, of a body which is
capable of decomposing, and SO of neu-
tralizing the miasms constantly arising
in hospital wards, and which at the same
time is not hurtful to the patients.
Ozone, it is alleged, is q body which
may be thus used. A spiral platinum
wire is placed beneath an inverted fun
mel, and ie rendered incandescent by
means of Bunsen's pile. Hereupon the
characteristic smell of ozone is perceived
in the heated air circulating above the
funnel, and it's presence is shown by the
test paper-a ready and practical sup
ply of ozone being thus made available
for the purpose named. iadifrt

Bridges.

Probably more bridges have been
built since 1900 than in all time before.
In. 1850 London Bridge was the only
one across the Thames in that metropo-
lis, and every attempt to create another
was, through local jealousy, vehemently
treated Between Putney, distant about
eight miles, and London Bridge there
are now nine bridges. There was at
one time a mania for bridge building,
says the Building NeaDS, and Tom
Paine, the thinker, undertook to
span the Schuylkill with a single arch.
A part which he constructed with
this view went to form a very lofty
bridge over the Wear at Sunderland.
South America very early hit upon the
expedient of suspension bridges. All
fees over bridges in London are now
abolished, save in one case. A writer
on this subject recently pointed out
that even the magnificent and enor-
mously costly bridge over the Danube,
at Buda Pesth, is free, and adds that no
American bridge is, SO far as he if
aware, tolled, which, we regret to say,
shows the writer's ignorance only toe
plainly.

Pulling Tooth with a Door Knob.

A rough Western farmer came into
doctors Office to have tooth extracted,
but finched at sight of the instru-
ments,' and again the doctor tried in
vain to get gripper into his mouth.
At last the Hoosier declared that
ERE new-fangled thing to be no ac-
count, " and wanted to know if the doc
tor could tie string around the tooth !;
Z" for" said he, that's the way I used
to pull 'em out, an I guess it's better'n
all your new-fangled fixtures" ..
The dentist, to please him, said he
would try, and producing from drawer
great deal of trouble and yells of pain
from the Hoosier, it was firmly secured
around the tooth. The Hoosier then
proposed to fasten the string to the door
knob, which was accordingly done.
The backwoodsman then commenced
a series of easy jerks on the line, each
of which was followed by yells of pain.
The doctor resumed his seat, and smiled
audibly behind his paper, occasionally
glancing toward the door, and then
turning quickly again to the paper to
hide behind it his merriment.
Thus matters stood, until, at last, the
fire burned low, and the dentist rose to
replenish it. AS he threw in the wood
and stirred the red-hOt Goals 1nGO
blaze, brilliant idea seemed to strike
him, for his face frightened wonder
fully. Arising from the floor, he left
the poker in the fire, and seating him.
self, awaited the change of affairs. The
backwoodsman had relapsed into de-
spondency, for a melancholy expression
had settled on his face. He steadily
gazed downward, as if he were in deep
thought. ga
The dentist, as I have said before,
resumed his seat, but threw aside his
paper, and sat looking intently into the
fire, with an expression of merriment
playing on his features.
Thus he sat for some time. At last
noiselessly rising from his seat, he drew
the poker, one end of which was glow
ing with a red heat, from the fire. I'll,
suddenly brandished it in the air ant
brought it rapidly towards the Hoosieri
nose. The backwoodsman threw him

Holy DAYS and HOLIDAYS.

A correspondent having stated that
all the public holidays of the present
year were upon the same day of the
week as in 1851, led to an examination
of the matter with the following result :
The years 1900, 1873, 1879 and the last
ten monthsaof 1884 have the general
holidays and also the Church fasts and
festivals on the same day of the week
and month. The ordinary public holi-

DECLINES BEING GoDFATHER.--It is
related of Dan Rice that when in De-
-trojt he was greeted by seedy looking
chap with, as this old Dan 2" 1t
is, :" replied Daniel, pleasantly. "Fm
powerful glad to see you we had an
arrival at our house last night, and we
are going to call it Dan Rice" Dams
countenance fell at once, and in sol
emn whisper he said I'm sorry, but
YOU are a little too late. I've shaken
hands with forty-eight men this morn
ing who had named babies after me,
and my last five dollar bill has been
paid out. You'd better strike Barnum
when he comes.
