THE GREATEST STANDING JUMP ON RE-
coRD.-The greatest standing jump, on a
dead level, so far recorded, was made in
England recently by man named Gresves.
Says an exchange:
Greaves was most fancied, and from
five to four the odds rapidly rose until Eve
to two was laid on him. Greaves won the
toss and elected to try first, when taking
his twenty three pound weight in hand, he
did the greatest feat ever recorded, clearin 6
10 feet inches, thus beating all previous
Jumps in this country, and also the perfor-
nance of Searles of America, who is credi-
ted with 10 feet 81 inches. Brown was
not deferred by this, but shortly after
ward made his essay, which fell four inches
short at the second attempt he was only
three quarters of an inch behind but the
third, like the first, was again four inches
short. The stakes were ESQ side, and
about 500 persons witnessed the affair.
Greaves, who has held the title of cham
pion for some time past, is native OF
Hazlehurst, village near Ashton, Lanca-
shire Just twenty-five years old, five feet
eight inches in height, and weighs ten
stone. w. Brown who is a " darkie, as
we have eaid, was born at New York, on
March the %, 1850. He stands five feet
nine and half inches and weighed twelve
stone eight pounds.

GERMAN SoLDIERs.-The Berlin War
Office seems at last to have found out the
way to make compulsory military service
thoroughly unpopular. Having raised the
physical standard for the recruit so high
that there is no longer in practice any
chance of escape for those who come
up to it-nineteen out of every twenty
who fully reached it last year were taken
on the rOlls-it is now making the autumn
maDpavres SO severe as to raise general
outcry in the press over the number of
sick sent to hospital from them. 1t is
plainly a serious matter when we find in a
paper usually known for it's patriotic senti-
ments as the WeSer Zeitung is such express
sions as the following: This excitement
reigns in those particular circles where
there is the warmest sympathy tor the
army and the highest respect for it's OH :
GERS. And there is quite discernmenS
enough among this part OF the public to
know that exertion and even danger are
inseparable from the making of a soldier.
But there is q due moderation to be OBJ
served in all things, and it ID naturally
asked whether this can have been observed
when marches have been ordered without
any necessity, on which strong men have
died like flies" These remarks will GER
tainly not be thought too strong by those
who learn that one division OF the FIJI
teenth Corps, during It's late manpuVres,
managed to kill fourteen of it's infantry SOL
diers, and that single company OF the other
division (of the Ninth Bavarian Infantry,
by the way) had forty-fye patients in
hospital at last. When the British soldier
remembers all the writing there was last
year arising out of the case of single man
Who died (of heart disease as it Proved)

soneb interests are better looked after than

Dangers Of Travel On Sea.
I'M. Y. World. [

Without wishing to play the alarmise,
we think 1t right to cali attention to the
fact that in six weeks time, from July II
to September ], no fewer than eight seri-
Gus maritime disasters were reported in
Europe. July 81, the French iron clad
steam. corvette Jeanne d'Arc ran down the
French despatch boat LIE Forfait and sank
her in IA minutes. July 25. the French
merchant ship Paris Port-d de Mer ran
ashore on leaving Bahia and was dashed to
pieces in q few hours. July 80, the Belgian
sseamer Nelusko. from Antwerp for. the
La Plata, caught fire on the high seas. The
crew and passengers were saved IN boats,
and the vessel sank shortly afterwards.
August Is, the Royal Mail steamer Boyne,
at sea from Portugal to Brest, went ashore
near the latter place. Mr.. Moran, the
American Minister at Lisbon, who was on
board, testifies to the gross misconduct Of
the crew and officers, and to the sufferings
and loss thus brought upon the passengers.
August II, the steamer Express, with am
munition for the Spanish Government,
blew up in Barcelona Harbor, wounding
twenty persons and killing twelve outright.
August 19, the British royal yacht Alberta,
with Queen Victoria on board, ran down
to the bottom at once. Three persons
persisted /; but the British newspapers
chronicle with grateful awe the fact that
the Queen "spoke kindly" to young lady
who was saved, her sister having been
drowned and an officer of the royal house
hold has since published a letter, "by COM
mand," adjuring loyal British yachtsmen
not to insist on getting themselves under
the bows of Her Majesty's yacht. August
&c, the French Messageries steamer Ava
sank ship in the Straits of Messina, and
then ran ashore twice herself before she
reached Marseilles. And, finally, Septem-
Der 1, the superb British iron-clad Iron
Duke, ran aboard and sank her consort, the
iron clad Vanguard, while sailing in fine
though foggy wealth from Kingstown to
Queenstown, off the, coast of Ireland. The
moral of all which pleasing Incidents must
be admitted to be that safety at sea is still
a matter of good fortune as well as of good
management. For if good management al
sea cannot be relied on in the case OF
French and English packet steamers be-
longing to prosperous lines, Of French ant

MAcAuLAY's TRIBUTE TO THE MOTHER.
Children, look in those eyes, listen to
that dear voice, notice the feeling of even
a single touch that is bestowed upon you
by that gentle hand. Make much of it while
yet you have that most precious of all good
gifts, loving mother. Read the unfath-
ENABLE love in those eyes, the kind anxiety
of that tone and look, however slight your
pain. In after life you may have friends,
and fond, dear, kind, friends; but never
will you have again the inexpressible love
and gentleness laviehed upon you which
mother bestows. Often do 1 sigh, in my
struggles with the hard uncarlng world
for the sweet, deep security 1 felt, when of
an evening, nesting in her bosom, lis
tened to some quiet tale, suitable to my
age, read in her untiring voice. Never can
forget her sweet glances cast upon me
when appeared asleep; never her kiss of
peace at night. Years have passed since
we laid her beside my father in the old
churchyard; yet still her voice whispers,
from the grave and her eye watches over
me as visit the spots long since hallowed
to the memory of my mother.
