Why GEN. Custer BID NOT GRADUATE
WEST PoINr.-Geu. Custer tells in an anus
ing way why be did not graduate ~ith his
class at West Point. Ludlow, be says no "
Colonel Ludlow, "was a greeny, but he had
pluck; and one evening, when was officer of
the day, some upper c|assman pitched on to
him, and be showed fight. The boys en-
couraged them until they got into good
square out-and-outer, just as was going
my rounds. Instead of sending both of
them, IS should, to the guard house, you
know, ! pushed back some fellows that
were trying to trip Ludlow, and SAID that
there must be fair play. 1t was a good
ore, and Ludlow was getting the best of it,
when the boys began to Interfere again. l
was just getting my hard 10 again, when
old -, instructor in artillery, came
around, and instead of arre,ting Ludlow
and The other fellow, he locked me up for
allowing the fight to 60 on, and l was in
the guard house when my class graduated,
But they wanted soldiers at Washington
just then, and they sent me or. | never
went back there again.

FLOGGlNG JUDAS 1SCARIOT


From the London Telegraph.
Good Friday. the sailors Oh board the
Portuguese and South American vessels ly-
ing in the London docks commemorated their
annual custom Of foggirg Judas Iscariot the
false Apostle.
The:e was a large crowd, principally CON-
posed OF seanen from the neighboring ships,
and the ceremony may be described as fol-
lows: At day break a block of wood, rough
ly carved to initiate the betrayer, and cloth
cd in an ordinary sailors suit, with n red
rorsted cap on the head, was hoisted by a
rope round the neck into the fore-rigging
The crews Of the various vessels then vent
to chapel. On their return, about VI q III. :,
amidst the shouts Of the sailors, and with
great jceTing and derisicn, the figure was
lowered rom the rigging and cast into the
dock, and ducked three times. 1t was then
hoisted aboard, and after being kicked round
the deck was dashed to the capstan.
The crew, who by this time had ~orked
themselves into q state of excitement, then
armed themselves with knott ed ropes and
proceeded to lash the efigy at hrst as
holy, and then, told off in pairs, kept up the
Aogging until every vestige Of clothing had
been cut to tatters. During this process
the ship-bell kept up an incessant clang, and
the Captains Of the ships, looking on ad.
miringly, served out goes Of grog to the e1-
ecutioners. Those not engaged in the fog
ging kept up SOFT of rude chant, utter.
mingled with explosives.
This proceeding was carried on until
o'clock, when the dummy was unlashed and
conveyed with much ceremony to the galley,
situated amilships, where it was buried amid
the che ers of the sailors and the crowd. 1t
had originally been intended to have CON-
bined the whole Of the crews of the various
ships in one body, and to have carried the
figure in solemn procession a circuit Of the
docks, but ON an intimation being conveyed
to the different Captains by the police author
tiles that such proceeding would eucour-
the formation of u rough mob and probably
lead TO scenes Of violence, they wisely coun-
seled the crews to abandon the probe ct which
was accordingly done.

How Long Shall We sleeP.

The fact lie, that C. life becomes concen
tratcd, and its pursuits more eager, short
sleep and early rising become impossible
We take more sleep than oar ancestors
we take more bscause we want more. Six
hours sleep will do for a plowman or 4
bricAleyer, or any other man who has no
exhaustion bat that produced by manual
labor, and the sooner he takes it after bis
labor is over the better. But for q man
whose labor is mental, the stress of work
is on his brain and nervous system
and for him Who is tired in the evening
with day of mental application, neither
early to bed or early tc rise is wholesome
lie needs letting down to the level of
repose. The longer the interval between
the active use of the brain and his retire.
ment to bed, the better his chance for
sleep and refreshment. To him an hour
after midnight is probably as good as two
hours before it, and even then his sleep
will not SO completely and quickly restore
him as it will his neishbcr who is physi.
ca!ly tired. lie must not only 90 to bed
later, but lie longer. His best sleep prCb-
ably lies in the early morning houis, when
all the nervous excitement has passed
away, and lie is in absolute rcst.-Er-

The Cour de Cessation, of Paris, has
just given judgment in a somewhat curious
crse. 1t is customary in many Oriental
courts Of justice for the advocates as well
as the public to take of their shoes on
entering, as a sign of respect to the Bench.
NJ. Pannoutombi, native advocate Of Pom
dicherry, some time ago took upon himself
to transgress this custom and to keep his
shoes on In the presence of the judges. For
this he was suitably admonished; but N.
Psnnoutombi reb. lie and maintained that
he bad right to appear in court with or
without his shoes, according to his con-
vcnience or fancy. lie was in consequence,
forbidden to practice. NJ. Pasnoutombi
appealed to the French Minister OF Justice,
who quashed the decision of the court of
Pondicherry. The affair was carried be-
fore the Court Of Cessation, whose solemn
sanction henceforth authorizes NJ. Pannou-
tomb to keep his shoes on in the discharge
Of his professional duties.

Saving Is Wealth.

One great cause Of the poverty Of the
present day Is the failure of cur common
people to appreciate small things. They
do not realize how a daily addition, be II
eres SC small, will soon make . large pile.
If tire young men and young women OF to
day VII only begin, and begin now, to
save little from their earnings and plant
it in the soil Of some good savings bank,
and weekly or noushly add their mite,
they will wsa. happy es,ii..e - competence
and independence when they reach middle
life. Not only the riie will itself increase,
bot the desire and a,tIhy to increase it
will also grow. Let clefk and tradesnan,
laborer and artisan, make now and at once
a beginning. Store up some Of your
youthful force end vigor for frsute c,ntin
gen:y. Let parents begin to teach their
children to begin early to save. Begin at
the foantain-head to control the stream
of exsravngance-to choose between power
ty and riches. Let our youth 90 On IA
habits Of exsravagance for ffty years to
come as they have for sfty year, past, and
we shall have a nation Of teggars, with a
moneyed sristocracy. Let generation Of
such as save in small sums lie reared and
We shall be free from all want, Do not
be amhitio-s for extravagant fortunes, but
do seek that which is the duty of everyone
to obtaia-independence and comfortable
home. Wealth, and enough of it, is with
10 the reach of al. i. is o5,aiuable by
one process, end by one only--savipg.
1t is an absolute crime to be POOR. 1t
is dishonesty Of the rankest kind. A
young man, for instance, spends everv
dollar Of his income; be 10 taken sick
what is the consequences why, his CON-
Danion must take out Of his bard earnings,
sncney saved 1T the rate of twenty FIVE
cents per ~cct, to tuy hiri the necessa-
ries Of life, medicine, ETC., and, perhaps,
furnish him money to g. home to his
friends, who, in their turn, must spend
their savings to provide for his wants.
Ny readers have all heard Of the Com.
meni,ts Of Paris. Their philosophy WAS
that the man who saved should divide with
the man that didn't save Now, this is
exactly the doctrine that young men set
forth in THEN daily actions when they frit
ter away all their earnings and throw
when sick or disabled, upon
some already overworked, industrious sis
ter or aged parent, whose bent form bears
the marks of long years of hard labor in
trying to keep the wolf from the door.
This wasting course of life is, repeat,
downright, absolute crime. Men who
have for years worked in some remunera-
tive situation, aud have squandered away
every dollar, without thought of the
future, aud then, when the rainy day
comes, throw themselves upon the saving
ones, are Communists capable of carrying
off the palm, whose counterpart pillaged
Paris and slew the innocent.

The Heir Of Walter Scot,

The fact that a near heir of the ALbots-
ford mansion and the other property left by
Sir Walter Scott, as citisen of tie United
States, has probably been forgotten, if it
was ever generally known. The Philadel
phia Press alludes to it in noticing the
coming marriage of Miss Hope Scott to Mr..
Maxwell. 1t says: "MIss Hore Scott
and her betrothed are members of the
Church CT Rome. If she had died unmar
ried, or if she should die without leaving a
child, the Abbctsford estate and mansion
two which she succeeded on her mothers
death, will pass to the eldest son of the
late Major Thomas Scott, elder brother Of
Sir Walter Scott, who had finally settled
IN Canada, where he died in 1928. His
heir is understood to have made home,
years ago, either in Maine or Vermont,
and must be now far advanced in years.
1t has been legally provided that the hus-
band of the Lady of Abbotsford shall take
his wlfe's name. Therefore she will be
known hereafter, not at Mrs. Maxwell, but
as Hon. Mrs. Hope Scott

Fruit and Health.

DR.. Hunt said at a recent meeting of
the Warsaw horticultural Society that
can absence Ct fruit implied doctors bills"
We have urged for many years the impor-
lance of regular supply of ripe fruit to
prevent disease, and insisted that the best

could carry to a newly settled country

curraut, goosebcrry and raspberry bushes,
and strawberry plants. We knew a family
who moved West, and took With them a
large quantity CT dried fruit, which lasted
throughout the first summer. None of
them were sick, although disease prevailed
all about them that year, but the next
year, with more comforts and less priya-
tions, but with no fruit, they suffered
much from sickness. Other Western resi-
dents have told US that 50 lung as they
could have ripe fruit they have beer s.ee

A GRANGE FOR CEUsApING--Werew We 10
say that intcmperance has reached a mag
nitude in England compared with which
there is nothing so fligrant in this country,
it would probably be declared that the state
ment was mere exaggeration. Here, how
ever, from London paper of July It'll, is a
terrible confession, which tells this and
more 1t runs thus: Whit Monday. 1874,
will probably be handed down to p osterity
as the most drunken day of the nineteenth
century. Never perhaps, within the memory
of the middle aged population of London,
have such horrible scenes dis2raced the
metropolis as were brought about by the
bank holiday. Early in the afternoon the
air was heavy with the gin-perfumed breath
of The crowd, and, toward evening, every
other pleasure seeker was either drunk or
getting SO. damned togcthe- in gaudy gin
palaces, men, women ard ch;ldren maudied,
quarrelled or fought from dusk 10 midnight
When The houses closed and turned the semi
delirious holiday makers into the street they
became pnblc ruisances. This day was a
feast Of soulless vice, national drunken
orgie."

dence purchased for Gen. Grant at Wash

Grants election. Having decided to leave

Fish, who was one of the donors, rendering
return Of tie house through him to the
friends who had presented it to him, giving
very frankly his reasons for taking this
course. Secretary Fish replied that they
could not receive IL; that it was presented
to him for the benefit of himself and
family, and that if be did not occupy it
as residence, the proceeds of it belonged
to his family. General Sherman will there
fore sell his present residence if an orpor-

There is an Eastern air about the follow
ing story, but it is not at all sn improbable
tale:
Many years sgo an Indian Rssah, whe
was great aimirer Of bis Eoglist masters
aad even learned the la nguage after fash
ion, frequently visited the Yiceroy of CAL
cutta. On che occasion be noticed COPY
of the Edinbng Review on the Vfceruy /.
table, and borrowed it.
Some time after he returned it; and up
on the Ficeroy's inquiry whether be found
anything interesting in it, he replied, ''Oh.
yes, many beautiful '..-.s; but also many
disconnected articles t.How so!" said
the Ficeroy. "See here" SAID the. Rajab,
"this begins with Hunting The Orangou-
tang, does it not? And now turn over the
pager AID here you have the History Of
Mary Stewart. The Viceroy laughed.
The book was uncut, and hiss vassel had
read 1t thrc-sh without discovering it. lie
therefore took from bis table an ivory paper
cutter, with beautifully carved handle, and
explained its use to the Raiah, who was
much pleased, bat could not help wonder.
ing how they conrived to print tie inside
before the leaves were were cut open. This
also was explained, and the Rajah depar-
ted, carrying with him the p.per cutter
which the Viceroy has given lin.
About year after, when the matter was
almost forgotten, the Viceroy saw from his
window gallant troop entering the court,
in the centre Of which was the Risb,
mounted on young elephants as soon as
the latter perceived the Yiceroy, he cried !:
Do you happen to have an uncut copy of
the Edinburg Review =? If so, pleas. tess !:
to me-" The Viceroy threw cat the book,
which was caught BY the elephant and
placed between his tusks, which to his SUI.
prise cad been turned into paper cutters,
even to tbs carved handles. Iu moment
the intelligent beast cut open the leaves and
then handed the beck to the yceroy. The
Rajah dismounted, and. pointing to the eIe,
plant, said to the viceroy. lie is yours
return TO you your paper cutter slive."
