A case in which duel was prevent

disgust Of the other, who happened to
be military mao, may be related here
1t occurred du ring the extra session o.
Congress in 1871. Thomas f. Marshall
invited three gentlehon to dine with

by Tom Marshall before he joined the

abundantly furnished with wine. Mar

who was from New Orleans, drank deep

loge, and were on terms Of familiar
intimacy. A slight misunderstanding
arose between them, and both being con
siderably elevated, harsh remark was
made by the editor. Marshall inquired
if he was responsible for what lie had

was that he neither knew nor cared. n

Marshall.

Marshall finally burst into laugh,

A Good CanyasSer.

A Central Michigan editor, whose
death the Free Press chronicled only u
few months ago, was probably as pcrsis
tent man as ever started out on a
dun or looked for new subscribers. Ho
was once out on jaunt in the township
Of White Oak, Ingham County, sticking
to every farmer until he got his nam,
and money, aud i: so happened that he
came to house where death called a
few hours before. The farmcrs wife
was laid out and the husband and
his children were grieving over her loss
when the editor knocked at the door.
WHATS up!' inquired the editor as
he saw the farmers solid countenauce e
before him.

The farmer hung off for a while, but

How TO RAISE CHIcKENs.-Ny
p ractice in raising chickens is, to take
them from the hen, then dig up the soil
aud place the coop on the fresh dirt,
then put the chickens back, and the hen
will roll in the dust and get the lice off
much better than on grass land. have
tried both ways, and 6ud the fresh dirt
much the best for the health Of the hon
and chickens. In some instances have
used hogs lard for greasing the hens
wings and the head Of the chick, think
ing it good way to kill lice. That
and the fresh dirt and the right kind OF
food have raised my chickens. The food
give, till they are three or four weeks
old, is Indian meal mixed with sour
milk. let it stand one day after being
mixed, then it will be fit for use, it beinA
swclled in the dish instead Of the crop,
otherwise it might result in death TO the.
chicS, for l have lost many by giving
raw meal before it was soaked aud
swellch properly. After they have been
cooped up few days, I let them out to
take tho air, but shut them up nights aud
rainy days, for chickens cannot endure

OF THE CRIMINALS BoDY.

A funny incident happeued at the
Bcaton Theatre fow nights since.
Maggie Mitchell was playing "Fan
chon.' III the third sut scene was set
in which bridge began on the right of
the stage down near the auditorium, an
directly to the rear, aud thence along
tho whole width Of tho stage, which Is
perhaps tho largest in the country. AT
tho end of tho act, after ''Lapdry's"
dialogue with "Fanchap," ho ruus off
up the bridge, and when about to do
this, and just as he took the FIRST step
on the bridge, the heros trousers, which
were Of the baggy kind generally worn
by stage peasants, fell down in the roar,
and immediately a square yard of linen
began to futter in sight ofthc audience.
Landry" folt what had befallen him,
clapped his hands to the exposed place,
and ran up and along the bridge as fast
as his lega GOULD carry him. For the
first couple Of aecopda the audience hard
" could believe its eyes, but when the
situation was fully appreciated there
was q perfect howl.

having accomplished her mission. At
tea o'clock Father Driscsll, Roman
Catholic priest, entered the prisoners
coll, followed by the latter's friends.
The priest road tho burial service OF the
Church, but did not administer sacra
ment, as he did not believe Waltz was
in q fit state Of mind to receive it.
When the funeral service was over, the
prisoners arms were stoutly pinione
and the procession vas formed for the
march to the seaffold, which as erected
in tho northeast cornor of che upper
floor of tho Jail. Father Drisc oil led the
way: then came Sheriff Cconley with
Waltz, and Constable Witcomb aud the
jury who had pronounced the verdict on
the doomed man brought up tho rear.
The moose was ut once adjusted on tho
prisoners neck. After the usual pre-
liminary ceremonies Of reading the death
warrant, and prayer by Father Driscoll,
the prisoner was asked if he had any
thing to say. There was no response.
A shudder Of horror at this instant
seemed to pass through the frames of
all present, for, as somo said, they fel.
that they were about to see a lunatic
hanged. But at tho thought of tho
keeper, Charles Erneat, who lay un
conscious in an adjoining room from
injuries received at :, al.z's hands, the
feeling of sympathy which had been
momentarily excited spent itself. The
black cap was then pulled over the face
of the doomed man, who gave cot the
sliGh test indication of consciousness of
the proceedings, and then, at 1O:l6 the
fatal cord was pulled. At the reooil of
the body, the Moose slippei round to tho
back of tho head. Apparently, there
was little suffering, for after two or three
convulsive contractiona Of the fingers,
the whole fraune hung motionloss.
IN fourteen min utes tho body was cut
down. just before this was done
Anselm W nitz, the father sf Joseph,
who was present, and, with deep emo
ton, pointing at the dangling remains

upon that body say he was not insane I
Shortly after the body Of Waltz had
been cat down, six physioiaus entered
his cell and proceeded to hold post
Gsertem examination. They found the
neck broken. They then trepannei his
ssula, and ca examining the brain found
it to weigh City four ounces, half
ounce heavier thau that Of Daniel
Webster, and Eo.rteon ounces heavier
thOa the average brain of human
being. All the organs were in healthy
condition, aud the intellectual faculties
were largely developed. The physio ian
could discover nothing to indicate
insanity. After the examination had
been completed the brain was placed iu
liquor and will be saken to Aiha1y to
undergo examination by exports of that
city.

That Unpleasant Animal.

And now the skunk (beg pardon of
ears polite) appears before the pub
lie in new attitude. A scientific
journal says that at the West these
creatures have a habit of biting peo-
pie at times, and that the bite always
results in death by hydrophobia. A
large number of cases are cited in
Illustration. The hydrophobia pro-
luced by other animals is much less
fatal than that from the skunk.
From this it is possible to infer that
the disease orr ginated with these an
imals, and they have transmitted it
to others, its power being, as alwaye,
lessened by transmission. They are
its originators. Then, to carry out a
suggestion offered in the journal, it
is noticeable that the odorous secre-
tons If the skunks when administer
ed in proper quantities have a very
beneficial effect upon all sorts of con-
vulsivc trouble and attacks of that
kind. The inference is then made
that the liquid is an antidote for the
poison Of the bite, and the idea is
thrown out that in the skunk the
source and cure of hydrophobia may
be simultaneously discovered if any
scientific person feels inclined to
wrestle with a problem Of such in
nate strength.-Boston Paper.

Feeding Young Stock.

1t is now well understood by every
farmer that is at all up with the times,
that the great profit in all the stock
that is to be fed for the butcher is to
be found in keeping up a continual
growth. The day of runted calves
and pigs in the yards of the live far
mer is past. He knows that every
day such an animal is going back he
is living on his own fat and flesh,
the most expensive food that can be
offered him. He knows that every
day such an animal only holds his
own, he is paying nothing for the
feed consumed, and is lapsing into a
state of unthrittincss that detracts
from it's value. He not only loses
time but he also loses quality. A
thrifty steer at two years is much
more valuable than he would be at
three years with the same weight. 1t
is the same with the pig. Much
time and feed are lost in re-establish-
ing the habit of growth when it has
been once lost. Besides, neither the
steer nor the pig that has been once
dwarfed ever completely regains his
fine form and condition. There is a
positive injury in such treatment to
every pound the animal has not lost.
Another fact not generally appre-
ciatcd: The summer is the time to
make the greatest growth of flesh for
the food consumed. Why is it that
so many persist in simply keeping
their stock alive through the summer
that they may fatten them in the fall?
If they will consider for a moment
that the animal heat must be main
tanned with food that is entirely eX-
pended for that purpose, they must
see that less food is used by the ami
nal, as fuel in warm than cold
weather, and that all other food cor
sumed goes to build up growth and
fat. For this reason animals will
make much greater gains on a given
amount of food in August than they
will in November; and for the same
reason they may make no gain in
January, because every ounce of food
may be needed to maintain them
against the cold. In the latter case
there seems to be total loss of the
food and labor, and such is the cas- e
where an animal is slaughtered or
sold by weight Immediately after
such an experience. We ought to
learn from these facts to keep our
pigs and calves growing every day;
in summer, because we then make
growth at least expense, in winter,
because if we make no growth, we
lose both feed aud labor.-Earmer's
Journal.
