a HIGHWAYMRH's wIPE.-A Dallas (Texas)
letter IN the Montgomery Advertiser says: To-
day, upon entering the Exchange Hotel, 1 saw
d lady sitting at the piano and lingering IL in
really artistic style. / bowed very politely to
her, and asked for Mrs. Chiffon, who il board
ing here. The lady at the piano very politely
replied, "Walk in, sir. ! am not acquainted
with the ladies of the hotel" and continued
playing her difficult music. This was Mrs
Reid, whose husband belongs to the gang of
highway robbers in western Texas, and who re-
Gently robbed the mail coach between Austin
and San Antonio. A reward of S11 900 being
offered for Reid, dead or alive, one of his own
gang, by deception, induced him to return to
Texas nom Kansas, and getting him over the
line in Texas, aboutsix weeks ago, deliberately
shot HIS chief through the heart, and delivering
the dead body to the sheriff, demanded the re-
ward. Mrs. Reid was in the criminal court here
giving her testimony in another case against one
Of the gang, when the telegram was received,
announcing the assassination of her husband.
UPON hearing it, she arose, and standing on tip
toe, she drew forth six-shooter and sHore in
sight Of hearers that she would never rest
until she had taken the life of the betrayer of
her husband. The assassin left the state few
minutes after killing Reid, fearing the
other members Of the gang. Mrs. Reid, though
desperate woman, Is said Is be highly edu-
Gated; she lives about nine miles from Dallas
and frequently visits the city, generally travel
ing as heavily armed as any of the gang of
which her husband was chief.

Prof. TyndaIrs Explanation.

Prof. Tyndall has published the complete edi-
ton OF his address, with a preface in which be
says that he has nothing to Ietract or explain.
1t appears that he wrote the paper in the Alps
and that IL was sent home in instalments 20 be
printed. IL was all in type when he read 1t at
Belfast, but IL was too long for oral delivery.
and had to be curtaied in certain Darts. This
statement of course dispOses at once of the in
situation which was made that the Professor
was led away by the applause OF the audience.
In point OF fact, he mefely read what he had
written in the solitude of the m0untainS The
omitted passages are now supplied but do not
appear to affect in any way the general drift OF
the discourse. You may remember that sug-
gested at the time that some of the critics were
disposed to draw larger and more decided
conclusions from what the Professor had said
than his words actually warranted, and that, as
he had evidentally composed his statement
with great care, IL was not quite fair to stretch
Its meaning beyond the point at which he had
ieft IT. This Is Prof. Iyndall's own view, and
he declines to go into any discussion as TO what
he did or did not intend to convey. He saws
that che looks forward to q calmer future for a
verdict, founded not on imaginary sins, but on
the real facts of the case" The only expIsna-
ton he offers is that those who accuse him of
ignoring the existence of God should be content
10 say sour God; and that in his hours OF Gle ar
ness and y1gor he Goes not feel that the doctrine
OF material atheism" a. it has been called is
satisfactory solution of the great mystery in
which We dwell, and of which we form part.
I'D snort, ne evidently wishes 1t to be Understood
mat he does not repudlate the idea or God, but
only certain current conceptions Of God. This
is confirmed by couple of quotations which he
has placed at the beginning of the book, and
which are perhaps more explicit than anything
In the preface. The first is from Xenophanes of
Colophon, and runs as follows: There is one
God supreme above all other gods, diviner than
mortals, whose form is not like unto m ans, and
as unlike bis nature. But vain mOrtals imagine
that gods, like themselves, are begotten, with
human sensations and voice and corporeal mem
bers. So, If oxen or lions had hands and could
work, in mems fashion, and trace ont with
chiSel or brush their conception Of godhead,
then would horses depict gods like horses, and
oxen like oxen, each kind the divine with it's
0W n form and nature endowiDg.D
The other Is a sentence from Bacon: at were
better to have no opinion of God at all than such
an opinion as Is unworthy Of Him; for the one

Hints TO Painters

lcu tre generally working in ill-ventated
II ops al q handling poisonous pigments the wear
round. one OF the most dangerous of which is
vi re leadi therefore, it is imperatively neces-
sary that you be clearly in YOUR habits and per-
sDn. If you eat with unwashed hands and wear
hing saturated with paint, you must expect
q absorb large quantities of poison, and suffer
IN cons qusuCe, and perhaps bring on paralysis
or kidney disease, which Will render YOU If not
entirely unable to work, 30 weak and Frustrated
in mer tai and physical power as to be but a
shadow of your former self, and suffer ALWAYS
from general weakness.
All carriage painters should wash their hands
before commencing or resuming work, and
should do ii as often as possible during the day.
They should have strong decoction of oak
bark also to wash in. the tannin of which would
not only harden the skin, but would protect it
against the action OF lead and other posons
This Is where the British coach painters are
ahe ad of Us; you will always find plenty of oak
bark in their shops. You should also keep your
hair cut short and wear a light cloth or paper
cap while at work. Be sure that your hands
are well washed before partaking of food.
am very sorry to say it but the truth
must be told sometimes, you often eat your
monday meal with unwashed hands. The
me- nth should be well rinsed with water before
eating food. The body should be sponged as
often as possible with cold water, and the hair
should be thoroughly washed every day; you
will find 1t better than hair Oil. Your food
should contain large proportion of fatty sub
stances; avoid all strong drink; drink milk in
large quantities; rest or sleep FIVE or six hours

TIE Fee CURE According to the Boston
Journal of Chemistry, the white of an egg has
proved Of late the most efficacious remedy for
burns. Seven or eight successive applications
OF this substance sOOthe the pain and effectuslly
exclude the burn from the air. This simple
remedy seems preferable to collodion. or even
cotton. Extraordinary stories are told of the
healing properties of a new Oil which is easily
made from the yolks of hens eggs. The eggs
are first boiled hard, the yolks are then removed
crushed, and placed over nre, where they are
carefully stirred until the whole substance is
just on the point OF catching fire, when the Oil
separates and may be poured off. 1t Is In
general use among the colonists OF Southern

BRICKS TWENTY CENTURIES OLD.-A cor
respondent of the Cleveland Leader, writing
from Persia, says: "Coming from Bagdad,
which in direct line, is forty-four miles dis
tart, three immense mounds appear in sue
cession. which have the appearance of natural
hills. But close examination shows that they
are composed of bricks, and are the remains Of
large buildings. These are on the east side of
the Euphrates, and the largest is about one
hundred and fifty feet in height. They are sup
posed to be an ancient citadel that defended
this part OF the town, the royal palace, and
temple. How immense must the original
buildings have been, when it is considered th at
these mounds have been the storehouses from
which, for centuries, bricks of the finest de-
scription have been taken to build the great
cities OF Csesiphon, Selucia and Bagdadi Frag-
ments of alabsster vessels and Images, fine
earthenware, marble and great quantities of
ensIneled tiles, the coloring and glazing of
which are still surprisingly fresh, can yet be
found in these mounds, On the face of every
brick is stamped, in cuniforn. the names and
titles of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. They are all laid
face downward, and the cement in which they
are imbe0ded Is so hard that they can only be
detached with the greatest difficulty.

CHEAP CoAL.-The householder who burn
ten or twelve tons of coal year frets and
fumes If he finds he has to pay half a dollar
a ton more this year than last, regarding IL as
an unwaIrantable extortion on the part Of the
dealers, but finally pays the bill and forgets the
momeDtary annoyance. To one single con-
sumner the increase above the established price
is an annoyance and vexation, but how few
single consumers reflect that what simply irri-
tates them may prove at no distant day the
commercial ruin of the greatest manufacturing
country in the world! few thinking men in
England, finding that this specter will not
down at their bidding, are beginning to look it
in the race, and the closer they view it the
pends-not remotely, but directly-upon cheap
coal and last year coal went up in price teu
shillings per ton. Ten shillings per ton means
that the consumers in England paid for coal
360, 600 geo more than they paid the year before!
There is something startling in these figures,
but they are not to be denied OF explained
away. 1t Is safe to say that If coal were to re-
main at last years highest rates, British indus
try would speedily enter upon q period of per.
