A Dog Story.

A Richmond, Va, paper tells story
Of a very sagacious dog and very fool
ish man, and the man owns the dog.
He. is a married man, and the other
evening he told his young wife that he
was going to the "1odge.' The wife
anxiously looked for the return of he,
husband until the small hours of the
morning, and finally there was scratch.
ing at the door. She opened it. The
dog was there, and something more.
He had in his mouth bloody handker
chief and round piece of ivory of
about the size of a silver dollar. She
did not know nythlng about the ivory.
but the bloody handkerchief suggested
to her terrible story. She put on her
bonnet and followed the dog. He
piloted her to the lodge, which was in
an upper chamber of a high building,
and there on the floor in one corner
was her husband with badly swollen
eye and bleeding nose and useless
legs. He could not walk home but
there was reason fer that, which dis
appeared in few hours. That young
man now wants to dispose Of a very
faithful, well-meaning dog. He also
wants tie find the man who hit him on
the nose in the gambling house.

How Some Noisy Boys We're Punished.

Boys who disturb camp meetings by
crying ''Amen" in the wrong place,
and remarking "Glory" with more
zeal than Judgment, should read and
ponder the fate of thirteen small boys
in Kansas. These thirteen i'll advised
boys were guilty, SO the story goes, OF
disturbing Kansas camp meeting by
insisting upon shouting "Amen y
when very muscular preacher, who
prldes himself on his voice, was singing
a hymn. The preacher bore it for some
time, but finally becoming filled with
righteous wrath, he descended from
the pulpit, and, never once interrupt
ing his hymn, successfully reversed
and spanked the thirteen small boys
AS his avenging hand descended, and
the dust of the small boys filed the
air, the rest of the congregation shout
ed in rapture, and encouraged him
with loud cries of g Go on, brother, go
on Then he retulned to the pulpit,
still singing, and those boys went half
a mile away behind haystack, and
lay down with their faces to the
ground, weeping bitterly.

Fifteen. Acres of GIadiOius Bulbs.

Twenty years ago there were only
six or seven varieties of the gladiolus
known. Now, there are over one thou
sand distinct varieties, and the number
is increased every season. The pure
white gladiolus originally came from
the Cape Of Good Hope; but it was a
small flower, and, at it's introduction,
ten years ago, not much was thought
of it. By careful cultivation, however,
it has become one of the choicest flow
ers of the field and garden. One of
the rarest sights Of the summer season
in a floral way-is G. l.. Aliens
gladiolus preserves. These are on the
line of the Central Railroad of Long
Island, about fourteen miles from
Hunters Point, and the route of the
road is through the centre of fifteen
acre field, devoted to the culture OF
this beautiful Towering bulb. One
hundred thousand gladiolus bulbs are
planted to the acre, and but little
knowle ge Of arithmetic is required to
figure oat the number of plants grow
ing in this fifteen acre plantation. It
may well be imagined that the sight of
this field of flowers, IN the late season
of bloom, was grand. In passing
through it. By rail, the sensation was
that of entering fiery lake, for the
red and crimson flowers predominant,
and the illusion was enhanced as the
breeze swayed the spikes of flowers to
and fro in the form of mimic waves.
These brilliant flowers are sent to the
New York market, daily, (ten thou
sand, perhaps, at time) and are to be
seen on every street stand, as we'll as
in the most pretentious flower stores.

Novel Way Of Propelling a Canal

DR.. Chase, of Portland, Me-, has in
vented and has on exhibition at West
Troy, canal boat to run by air. The
doctor has been engaged during the
past two years perfecting this new
motor. The machinery consists of a
small upright engine of about six horse
power, fan and two cylinder air com
pressers. The engine runs the fan.
and also works the valves of the
air compressers, from which air is
forced through a pipe to the bottom of
the boat by the admission of steam at
the top. The bottom of the boat I'M
der the stern has all inclination of about
thirty-five degrees, the inclination
commencing twenty -fve feet from the
stern. $500, 20 - IN
The air is let out of the bottom of
the boat at the base of this incline
through valve, which keeps the water
from rushing in, and as it naturally
seeks the surface in straight line it
rushes along up this incline, and thus
pushes the boat ahead, or really the
boat slides along on the air.. The force
thus obtained is equal to twenty six
horse power, and is calculated to pro-
pei a loaded canal boat along at the
rate of five or six miles an hour The
boat IN which the machinery is at pres
ent placed is old and leaky, and cannot
be run with safety. The intention of
Mr.. Chase is to have boat built ex-
pressly for him during the coming
winter, and he will have Things in read
mess to start in the spring. DR.. Chase
is not competitor for. the $1OO, 900
prize, but claims that he is only desir-
GUS OF developing a new principal for
the scientific world. -Azbaasy Journal.

Theatrical Adventures

An interviewer represents Miss Neil

playing In Dublin. It was in Juliet.
In the death scene, when [ seized the
dagger and stabbed myself, an excited
Irishman in the pit, overcome with
sympathy and terror, shrieked. sOh.
jim, she's done it. I was so con-
vulsed with laughter that could only
get up a giggle for the death struggle.
And again was playing Pauline in the
Lady OF Lyons, with a weak Claude.
He had been sick, and was not strong,
so told him when 7 rushed to him /

he must give way arlittle. [ flew to his
embrace, and he gave way indeed, and
down to the floor we both went to-
gether entangled in my train. We
gathered ourselves up as best we could,
and caught him again with fervor,
and the audience tried to stihe their
laughter, when Claude's next words
brought down the house, This the
heaviest blow Of all = OF course we
had the laugh out then. But the most
awkward accident happened to me
once In provincial theatre, where the
scenic arrangements were meagre. We
had kitchen for the ballroom, and
the tomb was set in the midst Of the
garden shrubbery. I said, that will
never do. 81 Bring me some drapery.

INSECTS TO END THE HUMAN RAcE


DR.. LIE Conte, the new President Of

enormous increase and destructiveness
of injurious insects. The present
actual damage done by insects to crops
in the United States is over three mil.
lions of dollars, yet these figures give
but an inkling of what the increase
promises for the future. ssJust now"
says DR.. LIE Conte, g a portion only of
the insect tribes are sufficiently numer-
Gus by nature to infict injury upon
man and his possessions, but civiliza-
ton destroys the balance of
life which naturally keep down
increase, and permits in the case of in
sects-those previously insignificant in
numbers-to become prominent fac
tors in work of destruction. . The
| only methods suggested by this scien-
list to avert calamitous plague were to
abandon the crops and starve out the
noxlous insects" or to establish ga
system of checks on their increase
equivalent to those existing before
civilization interfered. Either of these
plans are, of course, inlpracticable.
Ihe impending dilemma seems to be
an increase OF insects that the plaques
OF Egypt will be more than reproduced,
and that all vegetation, and finally
starving and helpless man himself will
be eaten.

Ants in Zanzibar.

A traveller in Zanzibar describes the
red and black ants as one of the great
est scourges with which Eastern Africa
is afflicted. These insects, he says,
move along the roads in masses SO
dense that beasts of burden refuse to
step among them. II the traveller
should fail to see them coming in time
to make his escape, he soon finds them
swarming about his person. Some
times, too, they ascend the trees and
drop upon the wayfarer. The natives
call them maadinodo, that is, boiling
water, to signify the scalding sensation
produced by their bite. These ants
are of great size, and burrow so deep
in the flesh that it is not easy to pick
them out. In certain forests they are
said to exist in such numbers as to be
able to destroy rats and lizards.

Terrible Murder i'm South America,

A letter from Rio Janeiro gives par
ticulars of a murder in Maranham of
young girl by Judge Portes Vesgue-
rio, aged IS. The Judge. it seems,
was infatuated by the girl, who is only
Is years of age. Proving unfaithful to
him, as he thought, he became greatly
enraged against her, but left the place
for year that he might forget her.
On returning, accompanied by man
to assist in the murder, he enticed the
girl to his room, and as she entered
she was seized by his accomplice. who
choked and gagged her. The Judge
then compelled her to inhale chloro-
form, and when she fell insensible. he
stabbed Unexpectedly, almost seve1ing
her head from her body, and bit her
savagely IN his rage. Some time be
fore, the Judge provided himself with
a zinc lining for travelling case, and
into this case the body, all broken,
was forced, and the cover carefully
soldered down. In a day or two the
girl was missed, when the Judges
house was searched by the police, and
in a garden in the rear of the premises
the body was found inferred. -Four
persons, supposed to have been con-
cerned in the horrible affair, were ar
rested, but the Judge, owing to his ex-
allied station, could only be placed I'M
der surveillance at the time.

l. IL
! There are many interesting facts con-
tanned in the report Of the doings of the
Bureau of Engraving and Printing for
the fiscal year ending the. Both of June
last, which was completed, on Monday.
During the year the Bureau delivered,
completed and perfected, United States
bonds, notes, and securities amounting
to $3.50, PA, 300, included in which were
S24O, 900, 900 in certificates of deposit;
1895, $50, 900 in 5 per cent. registered
and coupon bonds authorized BY the re-
funding acts of,1870 and 1871; $65, ILL.,
$50 in 500 registered consols; $50, 2O7,-
300 in 500 registered bonds 81, $50, $50
In 6 per cent. registered bonds 81,
536, 900 IN United States notes of the
series of 1869; 80, 674. 800 in fractional
currency of the fourth issue, new
series $40, 415, 500 in national c11rren-
cy; j, 392, 500 in National Bank (gold)
currency; S2,243, 900 In Pacific Rail-
road bonds, and $277, 500 in bonds of
the Oregon debt; also, 224, 449, TAO Gus
toms and internal revenue stamps,
amounting to S131, 694 472. There
were engraved and printed 1885,
1876 pension checks and 81, 5S3 pension
certificates. In this report, the
Chief of the Bureau asserts that the
attempts at initiating the government
special or localL I'd fibre paper have
been unsuccessful 5hus far, and that
the counterfeiting of the $50 United
States notes was only in part success,
the face being very coarsely engraved.
This official does not, however, allude
to the counterfeit $500 note. which is
such an excellent imitation as to de-
ceiye even some experts, and which
will sooner or later cause the Treasury
TO call in all notes of this denomina-
ton.
