TIE MYSTERIOUS MURDER Of Charles Good
rich, in Brooklyn is still involved IN ul>ytery. 1t
is 4 general theme of comment By the New
York press, and there are various theories con-
crning the manner Gifts preparation. That
the woman with whom Goodrich was known TO
have been at one time ultimate, and to have re-
c.ntIy discarded, committed it alone Is, il is
thought improbable. There was more than one
person engaged 10 the crime, aud though the
main motive may have been revecgc on the
woman part robbery was undoubtedly also
contemplated and effected. The murder ard
the rlfiug of the body show man 5 hand; the
lingering pity that washed the bloody face the
dead man, and wiped clean his s0led hands,
shows the act ofthe woman, who must there
fore, have been present. Such is, at present,
the most plausible theory.-Bohtmorc Gazette.

ing arrived from Aurora. Mr.. Heating
has been spending several days inspect
ing the Juniata Consolidated, in COM
pany with Mr.. Greeley, in order to report
the condition and prospects. and arrange
for the future working of the mine. The
Juniata Consolidated comprises the Wide
West, Real Del Monte, Aurora, and sew
eral other we'll known mines in that
vicinity, and six mills. Extensive prep
aratons are being made to work success
fully all these mines, and to put the
mills in good running order. The COM
pany is incorporated in San Francisco,

cute the work thoroughly and make the
above property a pecuniary success to
the stockholders Mr.. Keating thinks,
and with good reason, that Aurora will
present livelier appearance next spring
than it ever did before.

FORCE OF HABIT STRONG IN DEATH
The friends of an old sport hit up the
following expediment of effecting his
reformation. Having couple of coffins
prepared and placed in the family vault,
on his being brought home one night in
a senseless condition, they conveyed
him thither and slowed him snugly
away in one of them, member of the
family taking possession of the other to
watch his movements. After remaining
for some time encased in his "prison
house," he aroused from his stupor,
and in astonishment at his new resi-
dence, exclaimed:
" Am dead ?"
Certainly" rejoined his sepulchral
friend.
"How long have I been here % he
asked.
"About three years." was the an
swer.
"And how long have you been here ?"
he again inquired.
"Seven years" responded his COM
panion.
Well, as you have been dead longer
than have, I suppose you know the
best place where spook can get some
thing to drink"

PAPER WINDOW SHUTTERS. The in
ventors who have been experimenting
with paper for sometime past, are now
trying to make it useful for window
shutters. The preparation used is the
ordinary paper pulp brought by pres
sure to the utmost solidity, with the
lightest possible sheet iron or rather
casting to insure stability. This pre-
paration has been brought to high
degree of perfection in Japan, where
they are much moro skillful in the uses
of paper than we are, adapting it to all.
scrts of articles for domestic use, being.
as it is claimed, for water-p proof, and
tire-proof, not liable to breaking like
crockery from careless handling, nor in
danger of corrosion like almost all Of
the metals from exposure, the material
has been used to some extent in this
country for furniture, clothing, car
wheels and many other things out Of
the ordinary course Of things. AS the
stuff will not burn, the inventors expect
to turn it to use as new safeguard
against fire.

Room FOR THE MAGDALEN. - There
are some women and girls in the world
in such position that it is hard to i'm
agine their having brothers. If one of
them has brother he is generally q
good way off, and very seldom indeed
do the brother and sister meet. They
take particular care to keep out of each
others way, and the world is wide.
The other day such sister met her
brother for the first time since her fall
from family love and shelter, in street
in Indianapolis Tt had been two years
since they had seen each other. The
sight was an accident, and would have
been avoided by both if either had
warning. The old love of virtue and
home folks flashed into the heart of the
girl like light flom heaven. She rushed
to her brother with extended hands. If
he had seen the light he might have
saved her. Sympathy, to say nothing
of love, just at that moment might have
warmed her soul and moulded her live
anew She did not get it. He, in his
blindness, turned away, and in his
dumbness would not speak the tone
which her heart Was aching to hear.
lie fed from her touch, and all her
senses being denied, she hurried to her
miserable lodgings. and ended her life
by poison. Probably the news Of a Sis
ter's violent death reached the scnsibil-
tiles of the hard man who rcfuscJto
touch her hand on the street. ...>s

BurrER.-A company has been Or
ganiZed in San Francisco for the pur-
pose of manufacturing butter By artiti-
cial means. 1t is contended that finer
and purer article of butter can be made
from suet than by the ordinary churn-
ing process, and also that it can be
sold much cheaper The latter is an
important item to the poorer classes of
the large cities. Chemists have long
known how to produce butter from fat,
but the first method of practical use
was discovered by Nj. Mouriez, French
chemist, six years ago. His method
was materially modified by DR.. Paraf,
and improved so much that Paraf may
really be considered the inventor of
the process. Butter consists of clean,
margarin and stearin. All these are
contained in animal fats. Butter man
ufactured from milk contains other con-
stituents, including cassin, which is the
principal cause of rancidity. Pure but
ter is therefore obtained by Mr.. Baraf's
process, free from undesirable ingredi-
ents. Its manufacture was first kept n
secret, land an agent went into New York
market and sold large quantities for
the highest price dealers believing it to
be superior quality of butter made
from milk.
