A Strange Scene-Eating Dead Mans
Blood.

At the examination of Kate Stoddard,
the alleged murderess of Charles Good
rich, in Brooklyn, the Chief of Police
asked the prisoner to hand him locket,
very large one, which had belonged to
the deceased. She was at first 10th to
comply, but seeing that resistance was
useless she passed it over. On receiv-
ing it, the Chief took hold to open it.
ooh be careful, be careful, said she,
there is mineral in that which /
don't want to lose" Despite the ut
most care, however, little portion of
the mineral, )" as she called it, foil upon
the floor, and this, to the Chiefs sur
prise, she picked up promptly, put in
her mouth, and swallowed. What
did you do that for ?" said the Chief.
Looking steadily into his eye, she said,
THAT is Charles Goodrich's blood p
and sure enough, upon close exam;ua-
ton the locket was found to be filled
with CONCEALED blood. A few questions
elected the fact that on leaving Good
rich's house, on the morning after the
murder, she had taken away with her,
among other articles, cup full of blood,
which had oozed from his brain. This
blood, CONCEALED, she had been eating q
little of every day since the time of the
tragedy till the time of her capture.
The Brooklyn Eagle says, regarding
the appearance of the prisoner: at
took but few moments to create among
the bystanders the impression that they
were looking upon an insane woman.
And this womanis undoubtedly insane, il
ordinary indications of lunacy are to be
relied on. She sat there for full hall
hour, smiling and chatting pleasantly, q
strange, wild light beaming from he1
eyes all the while. 1t was impossible to
converse with her, although she talked
sensibly enough, without being almost
absolutely convinced of her insanity.
Miss Handley, in an interview with g
reporter, stated that the prisoner was
six years ago lunatic, and was an in.
mate of a lunatic asylum, and that hel
insanity was caused by disappointment
in love-"

Japanese Gambling.

A correspondent of the Alta CalUor-
MIA writes from Yeddo The Japs are
as fond of speculation as the most
hardened broker of California street.
The discovery of gold mines here would
be veritable curse to people so fond OF
gambling. BY the way, Mr.. Janin, OF
diamond fame, has been secured by the
japanese Government to prospect fol
gold" in these regions, at thousand
dollars per month the berth will be q
good one; but the Japs are as likely
to discover gold through his endeavors
as Messrs. Ralston & Co. are to realize
bushels of diamonds from Arizona. The
latest bubble that has burst here is the
great rabbit mania, which has ragged
here for some months past, with vio-
lence such as bit the Hollanders in the
days of the hyacinthe delirium. A few
days ago fancy rabbits brought here
fabulous prices. Foreigners were en-
gagged at high salaries to preside over
establishments frequented solely by
photographers, the Japs being prohib-
tied from ostensibly keeping such
houses. At last the bubble burst on
the arrival of the steamer from China,
with a cargo of the precious ANIMALS.
Rabbits are now worth bit a piece
which commanded o hundred dollars
week ago. As this folly but followed a
big delirium, it is now likely to be sue
ceeded by a new rage for Brahma fowls.
There are already signs of the approach
ing madness, and so fortunes are likely
TO be lost and won in this new species of
gambling.

To Purify the Breath.

Very properly follows the recipe for
gray pastilles for purifying the breath,
which they do, not merely by Disgusting
it, but by reaching the root of the diff
Guilty, and arresting decay in the teeth,
and neutralizing acidity of the stomach
when dyspepsia is at work. The mixture
is very simple chlorate of lime, seven
drains vanilla sugar, three drains
gum arabic, five drams-to be mixed
with warm water to a stiff paste, rolled,
and cut into pastilles. Madame Celnart
archly advises all good wives to let their
spouses know that these lozenges en-
tirely remove the traces of tobacco in
the breath. AS good wife will hardly
interfere with favorite habit of her
husband who is fond of smoking, the
least any gentleman can do is to render
his presence as acceptable as possible
after the indulgence. Another pastille,
preferable on some accounts to the
above, but owing its efficacy to the same
principle, is: chlorate of sodium, twenty
four grains powdered sugar, one ounce
gum-adraganth, twenty grains per-
tuners essential oil, two drains. Pow
der the chlorate in glass mortar put
the powder in cup, and pour in little
water let it settle, and pour of. Re.
peat the process three times with fresh
water, filtering what is poured off each
time, and mix the gum and sugar with
it, adding the perfume last.-Harper',

Profit in Feeding sheep.

At recent meeting of the Farmers
Club in Batavia, Genesee county, n.
Y, Mr.. George Burt presented the fol-
lowing definite statistics relative to the
cost and profit of feeding sheep for
market He paid for 200 sheep for fat
tening 1915; for keep, two months, $64;
eight tons of hay at SIG per ton, $l2S
four loads of corn-stalks, SIG; las
bushels of corn, 60 cents per bushel,
$SS. 80; one barrel of salt, SO; interest
on money invested, $20.75; total, ST.
227.55 Jan. he sold III sheep
at 8 cents per pound, 1892. 40 /; 20 at
81 cents per pound, e1S1.7 70 one pelt,
$3.50; total, $l,705.69 profit on the
200 sheep, $478.14. Mr.. Burt holds
that sheep in winter should be kept in
small focks-less rather than more than
sixty-fve in a fock-in a yard where
they can have free access at all times to
water; that they should be kept free
from all disturbing or exciting causes
that open sheds are better for them than
q close barn and that it is best to feed
grain to them whole.

The Goodrich Murder-The Motive for
tho Deed

Minnie Waltham, alias Kate Stod-
dard, the murderer of Charles Goodrich,
in Brooklyn, on the Dist of March last,
and who has just been arrested for the
crime, has made a confession, of which
the following is the substance
She had been living with Charlie, as
she called the deceased, and was greatly
attached to him. He wanted to cast her
of, but she loved him so much that she
could not leave him. She entreated on
her knees that he would allow her to re-
main, but he was firm, and, in fact, bru-
tai IN his treatment of her, and the
Thursday before the Friday on which
the body was found was the day fixed
for her to leave him. He threatened
her with all sorts of things if she dared
to trouble him further. She had re-
manned in the house in Degrand
street all the previous evening and in
the morning when Goodrich got up she
again besought him not to cast her off.
He was very angry, and refused her re-
quest, or to hear her at all. He then
went into the basement at the front of
the house, and proceeded to light the
Baltimore heater located there. The
murderess said she loved the man so
much that she could not leave him.
When she saw him determined to dis
card her, she worked herself up to MUIR
der him. She had one of his revolvers
in her pocket, not the one which the de-
tective found lying at the house beside
the corpse, and while Goodrich was
STOPPING down on one hand and knee in
the act of lighting the heater, she drew
the pistol, and, extending her hand to-
ward him, she said "Charlie. He
looked up and she shot him three
times. These were the fatal wounds
which the post-mortem examination
discovered. After she committed the
murder on Thursday morning, she
waited that day and night in the house,
watching it. On Friday morning she
had occasion to go to New York, and
early that morning she washed the
blood from the face of the murdered
man with the towel which she afterward
wrung out, and which was also found
damp by the police. She it was who
fixed the corpse as it was discovered,
and when she had done this she went
over to New York for something or
other, and was about to return to the
house on that Friday evening. She
came over the Fulton ferry, and ere she
had fairly put her foot on the street,
she heard the newsboys crying out
Extra-murder of Charles Goodrich.
She bought a paper and returned to
New York. She states, 81 killed him
for love-I couldn't part with him.

A Good Old Age.

In the ancient temple of Egypt is
probably the oldest timber in the world
ever used by man. 1t is found in con-
nection with the stone work, which is
known to be at least four thousand years
old. This wood, and the only wood
used in the construction of the temple,
is in the form of ties, holding the end
of one stone to another in its proper
surface. When two blocks were laid in
place, then it appears that an excavation
about an inch deep was made in each
block, into which an hour glass shaped
tie was driven. 1t is therefore very diff
tcult to force any stone from its posi-
ton. The ties appear to have been the
tamerisk, or chittim wood, of which the
ark was constructed, a sacred tree in an
clent Egypt, and now very rarely found
In the valley of the Nile. These dove
tailed ties are just as sound now as on
the day of their insertion.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
Training Heifers.

Nothing is more agreeable to most
COWS than the operation OF milking, ex-
cept, perhaps, eating, and COW with a
distended udder will usually prefer to
be MIXED. Nevertheless, heifers are
generally nervous about it, frequently
kick, and never stand still at first. Kind
treatment and gentle hand are essen
tial. rough man will be sure to make
a heifer kicker. The best way to be-
gin is to sit by the heifer, on her right
side, of course make her place her
right foot back, then grasp the cord
above the hook of the left leg with the
left hand, and hold ON. She cannot lift
her left foot well, and will not try; but
she will try to step over your arm with
her right foot. This is easily prevented
by raising the elbow, and she is abso-
lutely forced to stand as she is. Mean
while you can first clean and manipulate
her bag and teats with your right hand
with entire safety. When she stands
quiet you can begin slowly, but be
ready on the least suspicion of move
ment to replace the left The heifer
should be tied in stall at first and
have something to eat, perhaps, and if
very wild it may be necessary to begin
by handling her, rubbing, brushing OF
carding her gently, and gradually get
ting her accustomed to have her udder
handled but all this ought to have
been done before she calved.

Peril0ns Balloon Voyage.

A late English account gives an ink
ling of one of the most dangerous trips
on record. Messrs. Glaisher and Cox
well rose in a balloon from Wolverhamp-
ton. In twenty minutes they rose to the
height of Mont Blanc /; in fifteen minutes
more they reached the height of Chin
borazo. The temperature fell below
zero. They continued to ascend until
they reached the altitude of 36, 900 feet.
The effect of the cold and the rarity OF
the atmosphere was appalling. Mr..
Glaisher became unconscious. Mr..
Coxwell found his arms paralyzed. In
moment of despair he seized the valve
rope with his teeth, and by violent
movement of his head caused sufficient
gas to escape, so that the balloon rapid.
ly descended, and thus saved his own
and his companions life. 1t was not
without great difficulty that the latter
was aroused from sleep which, had the
car risen 1000 feet higher, would have
known no waking. Mr. Coxwel calcu-
lated his height to have been SO, 500 feet
above the oceans surface.
