A Curious Mania.

An extraordinary mania has arisen
among the inhabitants of number Of
villages in Western Prussia. They have
firmly made up their minds that their
Emperor has lost 10000 Prussian child
rem at cards with the Sultan, and that a
large number of Turks are, in conse-
quence, to be sent among them to kidnap
their children on their way from school.
The school teachers are supposed to be
privy to this Infamous plot, and are un-
derstood to have five thalers promised
them for every child abducted. There
have been scenes of tumult and violence
in consequence, and much difficulty is
experienced in allaying the excitement.
If there has been any denser ignorance
than this since the deluge, there is, at
any rate, no historical evidence of it.

An Internal Town.

Theodore Hale has named his brlm-
stone mine situated In Humboldt county
g Inferno" and has located and laid out
town around it bearing the same clas-
sic appellation. The new town is sup
piled with numerous avenues, alleys, ETC.,
with names corresponding with that OF
the town. For instance the stream near
it is called 'sRiver Styx," the pass In
the canyon is denominated Hellgate;' :
the streets are known as Devils avenue,
Birthstone lane, Whisky alley, Imps'
promenade, etc. The prominent places
of resort are the "Robbers' BOOST, !"
6 Murderers' Retreat" ''Palace Infer
no, and "Devils' Delight. There be-
ing no wood or coal to be had in the
town, the fires are made entirely FROM
birthstone or sulphur produced from the
mines. The stream near the town, called
Styx, is not stream of water, as one
might suppose, but of melted sulphur
and liquid potash. Their bibulants are
sulphur cocktails, birthstone punches,
and potassium lemonades. We regret to
state that the entire town of Inferno, at
the sulphur mines, was destroyed by fire
last Tuesday. The fire originated in
Palace Inferno, which was built entirely
of birthstone, like all the other buildings
in the place. There being no water OF
Babcock fire-extinguishers in town, the
burning element melted, and running
along Devils avenue and Imps' prom
enade, set fire to Murderers' Retreat, and
from thence all over town, which was
soon reduced to veritable I" lake Of fire

Some Remarkable Rife Practice.

Though we are not all marksmen from
the cradle up, as an Irish paper fatteringly
intimates, it is yet true that there are a
great many men in this country besides
the American team that can draw along
correct bead on small objects at very
range. One of these is an elderly Vlr-
gilman named Beckwitn, whose exploits
are narrated by the Richmond Wing.
The old gentleman fired seven times
with an old fint-lock and only missed
potato held by his son between his
thumb and forefnger at distance OF
fifty yards. The rifle cracked and the
potato fell shattered in several pieces.
One of the small pieces was thea thrown
In the air, the marksman keeping at the
same distance, and again the shot told.
An inch and half auger was then pro-
duced, and hole bored in the fence,
behind which was fastened piece of
white paper. At the distance of sixty
yards the marksnan sent ball clear
through the aperture, piercing the paper.

shot s. cooper cent was thrown in the air
and hit. The sixth and seventh shots
were delivered at blackened five-cent
nickel piece thrown up by the son, stand
about thirty yards off. At the first at
tempt the shot missed. The old gentle
man showed considerable modification,
and laid the blame upon bystander,
who, at the critical moment, sneezed
loudly. The next attempt, however, was
an entire success. The OLD man declined
any further trials of his skill, and when
offered a sum of money to repeat his
first feat of shooting potato from his
sons hand, he refused, saying he didn't
care to try any such experiments unless
his weapon was freshly cleaned.

ANOTHER AIR-SHIP.
BaItimorean Who Intends to Cross the
Atlantic in Fifty Hours.

A BaItimOrean Who Intends to cross the
Atlantic in Fifty Hours.
Mr.. w. F. Schroeder, an enthusiastic
young German, has just obtained from
the United States letters patent for his
invention of a balloon, by which, as IS
claimed by the sanguine inventor, yoy-
age from New York to London can be
accomplished in fifty hours. Mr.. Schroe-
der has gained the valuable assistance OF
capitalist in the person of Mr.. George
W. Gail, of the firm of Gail & AK, who
is to furnish the necessary means for the
construction of the floating alr-vessel.
It is stated that Postmaster General
Jewell has expressed himself gratified at
this new invention, and that Baron Won
Schloezer, the German Ambassador, has
taken with him to Europe drawings and
plans of the balloon, which are to be
submitted, as is stated, to the German
government.
The vessel is to be constructed In the
form of life-boaG sixty feet long, ten
feet wide, and twelve feet high. The
frame is to consist of wire and steel, and
will be covered with strong waterproof
linen. This vessel is to be carried by,
and to be connected with, a balloon of
linen, which will hold 10000 cubic feet
of gas. In the vessel will be an engine
of twelve-horse power, which will set LII
motion the wings or sails on each side OF
the vessel. The propellers will be con-
structed on the same principle as wind
mills. The machine can be SO placed
that both propellers can be made to work
in one direction, or one may pull and the
other push. Upon the ascension OF the
balloon the propeller in front is placed
in motion after being at the height de-
sired, the screws are set to work, and the
vessel follows the direction given it by
the pilot. The vessel is likewise pro-
vided with two blades, which move
simultaneously, but turn in opposite di-
rections. A gas machine will be at
tached to the balloon to supply the
necessary gas during the voyage. In
case Of leak in the balloon other smaller
balloons, filed with gas, will be always
on hand, and when placed In the larger
one will serve to stop the leakage. The
contract for the construction of the bal
loon has already been given out, and the
work is to be completed Aug. 5.
Mr.. Schroeder expects to be able to
make voyage ID this balloon from Bal
timore to New York in one and half
hours, when the wind is favorable. The
voyage by the balloon from New York to
London is to be made in fifty hours.
Mr.. Schroeder states that if he is in
trusted with the carrying of postal mat
ter to Europe he can complete the route
from New York to Hamburg, Paris, Lis
bon and Washington in the space OF six
days. The whole vessel will weigh $500
pounds, and it is thought that in addi-
ton to the carriage Of postal matter,
fourteen passengers can be transported
in Baltimore american.
