MaggIe's Troubles.

THE first real spring day had come and
Maggie felt as happy as bird Every
body was unusually pleasant at break
fast, as everybody is apt to be on the
first clear morning after several days of
| rain. The older folks went to drive,
leaving Maggie and her cousin in the
back parlor, each busy in her own way.
The sound of carriage made them run
| to the window in time to see two ladies
on the step.
"Oh, dear! dear Mrs. Delaney and her
daughter are at the door," exclaimed
Maggie, putting the chairs straight and
| pushing her scraps into the closet.
"There, all is in beautiful order" she
| cried.
Except that closet,"n said her cousin,
| as out tumbled work-basket, story
book, pair of stockings and even an old
calico apron.
Nobody will see them" said Mag.
gle, pushing them in, pell-mell, and turn
ing the key. By this time the ladies were
in the room. After short chat Mrs.
Delaney spoke of wishing to see an old
family portrait that hung in Maggie's
room. Maggie's heart beat quick at this.
for she remembered that in her haste to
get to a pleasant piece of work she had
left her room in disorder. She excused
Emily and herself moment, so that the
two ran upstairs to arrange things Mag
gle threw her clothes into her wardrobe,
| big trunk, and under her bed, till really
| there was no telling where anything
| could be found when wanted.
"Therer' she cried, looking pleased,
eve have done wonders; Mrs. Delaney
will see all neat" Emily said nothing,
only pitied Maggie because she would
have such hard time to find her things.
"Your room is in perfect order" said
Mrs. Delaney approvingly. Maggie
| looked pleased; but Emily thought,
"What would she think if she could look
into those closets?" When the visit
was over, Maggie couldn't find her
patches.
"You put them in that closet" said
Emily. After some trouble Maggie
found them, but they were covered with
ink. She remembered that she had left
the ink in the closet, instead of returning
it to its place on the study table. That
was the end of the patch! Next, she
couldn't tell where she had put her
worsted work; well, she would finish
certain story-book; but no, it couldn't be
found. Finally she asked Emily to take
a walk Now the trouble was to get her
hat and shawl out of the confused mass.
The hat was ruined, and the shawl too
much tumbled to wear that day.-Chald'S

A French Lunatic.

ROUSSEAU once wrote: If it were
only necessary for you to hold out youl
thumb in order to cause the death of an
lmmensely-wealthy mandarin in China,
whose heir you would be, are you sure
that you would not extend your thumb?'
This passage one day attracted the at
tcntion of Henri de Lacreis, young
Frenchman of excellent family, but
whose brain was little affected by the
loss of his fortune. He thought, "1f
could stretch out my thumb and tina,
would be enough to kill my uncle and
cousin, I should become very rich" In
sort of hallucination he extended his
arm toward the photographs of his rel
atives and said, "Let them die, so that
may inherit" Fifteen days later his
uncle and cousin were carried off by
typhoid fever. Within the last six
months remorse preyed upon Lacrois
enfeebled intellect and he imagined that
his spell caused the death of his relatives
He heard voices from all sides of his
room calling, "Thou hast killed us
Thou hast killed us" He delivered
himself up to the police and asked to be
executed. He died few days ago in an
insane asylum.

A Horrible Death.

AT the Devils Elbow, about six miles
below Black Hawk, on the line of the
Colorado Central Railway, where the
bed of the road is hewn out of the solid
rock, owing to the extreme narrowness
of the valley of Clear Creek at the point,
an accident occurred on Wednesday
evening last which takes rank as one of
the most horrible and terrible on record.
A Chinaman, Lin Wau, working in the
gulch mines along the creek, was pur-
sued by wild and furious bull, which
had wandered away from his herd up the
creek. For safety the Celestial took to
the track, but was closely followed by
the infuriated animal to the Devils Ell
bow, where the bed of the creek is about
twenty feet below the track, and the top
of the telegraph poles on line with the
rails. One hurried moment had the
Chinaman to realize that his enemy was
upon him, when with all the force of
brute power one horn went piercing
through the back, passed through the alb
domen and came out in front. 1t was
the work of an instant to raise, like
feather, the mass of bleeding, screaming
human flesh, and, with a toss, to hurl it
across the track and into the gulch. The
unfortunate Chinaman, thus gored unto
death and tossed into air, in his descent
struck upon the end of telegraph pole,
which entered the very same gaping
wound made by the horn of the brute in
his back, and the pain tortured, blood
besmeared victim was impaled in mid-air.
Without speech, and pale with horror at
the sight, hiss companions stood power
less until the heart-rending cries of the
unfortunate awoke them to duty. He was
then taken from his appalling position
as speedily as possible, but died in a few
minutes. The bull, after accomplishing
this deed, passed up the canon, and had
not been captured at last accounts

The Growth Of the Girard Estate.

APROPos of the recent unsuccessful
effort to extend one of the streets
of Philadelphia through the grounds
of Girard College, the Ledger pub
fishes some interesting facts In re-
gard to the remarkable growth of the
famous Girard trust. The college build
ing cost in round numbers S2,OOO,O0O.
There have been further additions since,
and the maintenance, up to the present
wear, has cost over 50, ,500,00 The col
lege opened with 100 orphans and now
it has 550 the limit of the capacity OF
the present buildings. On the list OF ap-
plicants are $50 orphans eligible to be
admitted, but large number will lose
their chance by reason of reaching the
limit of the age, fixed by the will at ten
years, before the necessary amount Of
room can be provided for them. The
income of the last year shows an
excess of over 100000, which
would be enough to enable the col
lege to admit and support twice
the number now upon its rolls if the
building accommodations were sufficient.
The income of 1874 was over $500, 1000,
the expenses about $4,000 and the cost
of the college about 100000. The in.
come is largely on the increase, and it is
not easy to say where it will stop. Ev-
ery piece of land in the built-up portion
of the city has been permanently i'm
proved, and the large body of coal lands
in Schuylkill and Columbia Counties,
which were entirely unproductive at the
time of Mr.. Girard's death and long al
terward, are now being developed.
Twelve lines are now open. The estate
owns $50 acres of land IN the southern
part of the city which is capable of large
development for building purposes. The
prospect is that, within the present gen.
Grafton, the income of Girard College will
be enough to support a considerable
number of orphans other than those OF
the old city proper, who are first en-
titled, under Mr.. Girard's will, to admis-
sion. The future growth and value OF
the estate is almost incalculable.

How the English Raise Children.

To THE daily discipline to which En-
glish children are subjected, quite as
much as to the climate, they owe their
soft, bright compilations and abundant
health. They rise at half-past seven all
the year round. They are carefully
bathed and rubbed, and by half-past
eight are hungry for breakfast, which
consists of dish of oatmeal or hominy
and bowl of milk or or Epps' cocoa
with little stale bread crumbled in 1t.
Instead of the oatmeal or hominy they
may occasionally have a perfectly fresh
soft-bolled egg mixed with stale crumbled
bread. After breakfast they pay their
mamma an hours visit, and then go for
an hours walk. On their return they
play in the day nursery until twelve, and
are then put to bed for an hour and
half. Between half-past one and two
they have dinner The meal should con-
sist mainly of strong beef or mutton
broth, wholly free from grease, and
mixed with half its bulk of boiled rice or
barley. 1t must be cooked especially for
the children, and the cook must be made
to understand that children's meals
should be prepared with even more care
han grown peoples. For dessert
thcy may eat a little stewed fruit or rice
pudding. At three O'Clock they take
their afternoon walk, remaining out, un-
less in the bitterest weather, until five.
Then they have what is called afternoon
tea-bread and blackberry jam and
sweetened boiled milk. The next thing
is good hearty romp in the nursery, in
which the whole family takes part, until
about half-past six. Then mamma takes
them to her room while she is dressing
for dinner, and at seven they are put to
bed.
This regimen is pursued with undevi
ating regularity until the child is foui
years of age, and it builds up a fund OF
orderliness, blooming health and sturdy
nerves which generally last through life.

MOOR Il KISS.

A WEE bit, winsome, bonnie girls
My Sadie fair,
Like grapevine tendrils are the curls
OF her dark hair.
Her face is bright, and loving light
Shines in her eyes,
/ love her well and would ! might
Her thoughts surmise.
know she loves, and loves full well,
She told me so,
But whom she loves she will not tell,
When I would know.
And whether Pm the happy one
That owns her heart,
Or whether she is making fun
With coquette's art,
And only teasing me in play,
l cannot guess.
l hope, and yet wheae'er I pray
She will say yes.
She laughs a merry little laugh
Like robins trill,
And says l am too dear by half
To treat so i'll.
Some day when chance to see
This wayward miss
rll hold her till she answers me,
Moor kiss.
