A funny incident happeaed at the
Boston Theatre faw nights since.
Maggie Mitcholl was playing "Fan

in which bridge began on the right of
the stage down near the auditorium, ran
directly to the rear, aud thence along
the whole width of tho stage, which Is
perhaps tho largest in the country. At
tho end of tho act, after "Laldry's"
dialogue with "Fanchap," he runs off
up the bridge, and when about to do
this, and just as he took the first step
on the bridge, the hero's trousers, which
were Of the baggy kind generally worn
by stage poasants fell down ia the roar,
aud immediately a square yard Of linen
began ta Autter in sight ofthc audience.

claPped his hands to the exposed place,
and ran up and along the bridge as fast

How TO RAISE CHIcKENs.--My
p ractice in raising chickens is, to tako
them from the hen, then dig up the soil
and 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. Ihave
tried both ways, and fiud the fresh dirs
much the best for the health Of the hen
and chickens. In some instances have
used hogs lard for greasing the hens
wings and the head Of the chick, think
ing it a good way to kill lice. That
and the fresh dirt and the right kind Of
food have raised my chickens. The food
l 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 bainA
swclled in the dish instead Of the crop,
otherwise it might result in death TO the.
chick, for I have lost many by giving
raw moal before it was soaked aud
swellch properly. After they have beenf
cooped up u few days, | let them out to
take tho air, but shut thom up nights aud
rainy days, for chickens cannot ondure
very wet weather. Cor. ~. e. Farmer.

Tom Marshall.

A case in which duel was prevent
ed by one Of the seconds, much to tho
disgust Of the other, who happened to
be a military man, may be related here
1t occurred du ring the extra session OF
Congress iu lS4l. Thomas +. Marshall
invited three gentlemen to dine with
him one stormy, dismal Sunday. One
of the guests was an officer of the army,
from the South, who afterwards made
something Of name during the REBEL
ion. The other two we're connected
with the press. An entertainment given
by Tom Marshall before he joined the
cold water association was sure to be
abundantly furnished with wine. Mar
shall and one of the newspaper men,
who was from New Orleans, drank deep
ly. They had been classmates in col
loge, and were on terms of familiar
intimacy. A slight misunderstanding
arose betwecn them, and both being con
siderably elevated, harsh remark was
made by the editor. Marshall inquired
if he was responsible for what lie had
said. The reply was.
tom Marshall, you oughtto know
me too we'll to ask such question
The party broke up rather sudd cnly
and a short time afterward the editor
brought to his friend Of the press who
was present at the dinner challenge
which ho had just received from Mar
shall, with an unconditional acceptance,
asking him to deliver the reply, see tho
army officer, who was to act as Mar
shall's second, and make arrangements
for nm Immediate meeting. The fliend
of the editor wus inexperienced in such
matters, but he was impressed with the
folly of duel between two gentlemen
on misunderstanding a: the dinner
table, and determined to pre- rcnt fight

naTlng accomplished her mission. at
ten O'Clock Father Driscsll, Roman
Catholic priest, entered the prisoners
coll, followed by the lattsr's friends.
The priest read tho burial service Of the
Church, but did not administer saora
ment, as he did not believe Waits was
IN fit state Of mind to receive it.
Whes the funeral service was over, tho
priasner's arms were stoutly pinioued 4
aud the procession was formed for the
march to the seaffold, which was erected
in the northeast cornor of the upper
floor Of tho Jail. Father Driscoll led the
way: then came Sheriff Coonley with
Waltz, and Constable Witcomb and the
jury who had pronounced the verdict on
the doomed man brought up the rear
The moose was ct once adjusted on tho
prisoners neck. After the usual pre-
liminary ceremonies Of reading the death
warrant, and prayer by Father Driscoll,
tho 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 preacut, for, as some said, they felt
that they we're about to see lunatic
hanged. But at tho thought of tho
keeper, Charles Ernest, who lay uu
conscious in au adjoining room from
injuries received aS :, alts's hands, tho
feeling of sympathy which had been
momentarily excited spent itself. The
black cap was then pulled over the face
of tho doomed man, who gave not the
sligh test indication of consciousness of
tho proceedings, and then, at 10:l6 the
fatal cord was pulled. At the rscoil Of
the body, the moose slippei round to the
back of the head. Apparently, ti,ero
was little suffering, for after two or three
convulsivo scentractions Of the fingers,
the whole frame hung motionlsss.

Shortly after the bndy of Waltz had
been cat down, six physsoians entered
his cell and proceeded to hold post

neck broken. They then trcpannoi his
skull, aud on examining shc brain found
1t to weigh City four ounces. half
ounce heavier than that Of Daniel

thaa the average brain of human

condition, aud the intellectual faculties
were largely developed. The physioiaa
could discover nothing to indicate

been completed the brain was placed iu
