Two SwOrd-Fish Stories.

On Saturday afternoon, about the time
the frigate Repulse was getting under way,
large fish was seen by the natives of
Waikiki, rapidly approaching the bay.
AS he neared the reef he cleared it with
one leap of fully 200 feet, and skinned
over the shallow water inside until he
landed high and dry on the sand beach,
directly in front of Mr.. J. W. Pfuger's
seaside cottage. Here he was seized by
a native, who, however, was unable to
hold him, and the huge fish foundered
about till he finally got into the water. A
crowd of natives corraled him, and the
water near shore being too shallow to al
low him to use his fins to any advan tage
they soon killed him with an ak. 1t
proved to be a species Of the sword fish,
measuring eight feet in length, while his
sword measures thirty-six inches. The
latter may be seen in our office. He APP
pears to have been frightened by the Re-
pulse, and shot like an arrow through the
water and over the reef with such an ex-
taordinary speed that he could not stop
until out of his native element and high
on the land. Those who witnessed it say
that it was most exciting scene.
These sword fishes are very powerful.
We remember Capt. Stone telling of an
lAClNiChu WlllCll OICulICu WullC uC was
running the brig Josephine between this
port and Jarvis Island, about 1853 The
brig was an extraordinary sailer, and
while going at her full speed, ten miles
an hour, she was struck directly under
the stern-counters with such a shock as to
jar the whole vessel and to awaken the
Captain out of sound sleep, who sup
posed the brig had struck whale or
reef. Immediately the pumps were
started, but there was no water in the
hold. On returning to port the brig was
hove out to find the cause of the shock,
when, near the sternpost, imbedded in the
thick plank, the blade of sword fish
was found, fully twenty inches in length.
To have hit the brig under the counter
the fish must have been going in the same
direction as the vessel; and one may i'm
agine the speed with which it moved to
have plunged its sword twenty inches
through the planking. 1t must have been
going at the rate of twenty or twenty-five
miles an hour, and evidently intended to
hit the brig, supposing it to have been a
whale From this one can get faint
idea of the fights which take place among
the monsters of the deep.-HonoJulu Ca

How One Cooperative Association Is
Managed. ran

There is an association of young per-
sons at Springfield, VT, known as the In
dustrial Works, that furnishes all it's mem
bers with constant work at fair wages,
and pleasant home at a small cost,
which is meeting with asuccess so marked
as to attract the attention of all thinking
people. The members of this association
are all young people who are willing to
rid themselves of all bad habits, work
steadily, dress economically and save a
portion of their wages; no others are
taken. All the men who join are required
to furnish small amount of capital, and
to save One-fourth of their wages, which
must be invested in the capital stock of
the association. Women are not required
to furnish any capital in the outset, but
must save one-siXth Of their wageaaand
invest it in the business. Those who do not
comply with the requirements of the asso-
citation are expelled, and those who wish to
leave can do so at any time, and can with
draw their capital by giving six months
notice. The wages paid to each member
is fixed by board of directors and is pro-
portioned to their skill and ability. They
have large dwelling or home where the
members live and enjoy many privileges
and comforts not usually found in fami-
lies or boarding houses All pay moder-
ate price for their board from their wages.
They have two new factory buildings, and
a good water privilege, and considerable
machinery, and are engaged in the manu-
facture of toy and hOuse-furnishing goods
for which they find ready sale. They
commenced business year ago with five
hands, and are now working forty five,
their sales for last month were over So, 900 :;
their payroll for the month was over
81 ,200 and the saving of wages which
was added to the capital of the company
was more than $500. The average amount
saved from the wages of each man in a
Many of the members have saved much
more than this during the year, but this is
all that is required of them. The aggre-
gate amount saved by the present company
in year will be nearly $5,000.- Wood

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.

Beef Tea.-Cut piece of lean, juicy
beef into pieces an inch square; put them
into wide-mouthed bottle and cork it
tight; then set it in a kettle of cold water
and boil an hour and half.
"A good way to start slips OF plants is
to get an old glass fruit jar, sift nice mel
low earth in it till it is two or three inches
deep, or till it touches the end of the slip,
then pour water over it till it is full. Set
the jar where it will not be moved often.
After the roots start sift more earth over,
fill again with water if needed, and so on
till it Isl ull and filled with roots, then
carefully break the glass off and trans
plant to pot, and you will have no
trouble in starting it.-N. Y. Herald.
Those who buy plants at green houses
know how fresh and green they look when
they are first taken out, and how they
droop afterward from the effects of the
change from the warm, moist air of such
houses to the dry atmosphere and draughts
OF the sltting-room. 1t is stated that if
the plants are enveloped for few days in
thin, soft paper, leaving an opening at the
top, they will become acclimated without
feeling the change. Sprinkle the leaves
daily, on both sides, with small wisp-
broom with warm water.-Ihe Household.
Corn loses one-fifth by drying and
wheat one-fourteenth. From this the es-
innate is made that it is more profitable
for the farmer to sell unshelled corn in
the fall at seventy-five cents than at one
dollar bushel in the following summer
and that wheat at $125 in December is
equal to 81 80 in the succeeding June. In
cases of potatoes-taking those that rot
and are otherwise lost-together with the
shrinkage, there is little doubt that be-
tween October and June the loss to the
owner who holds them is not less than SO
per cent.-Gl06e- Democrat.
The Canada Farmer says this is the
way to cure horses of the habit Of pulling
at the halter: "Get piece of BEDFORD
four times the length of the horse, and
double it in the middle, and at the
doubled end make loop, through which
pass the animals tail Then cross the
cord over his back, and pass both ends
through the halter-ring under his chin,
and tie both ends of the cord to the trough
ring through which the halter-strap plays,
the end of the halter being attached to a
billet of wood. Should the horse attempt
to pull back, the strain will all be on the
root of his tail before the halter-strap will
become frightened, and he will at once
step forward to avoid it. After so fixing
him few times in the stable he will
abandon any such propensity"

A Cheap Necklace.

Lucy Hooper writes to the Philadelphia
Telegraph from Paris as follows: A yerv
curious circumstance recently occurred
here relative to necklace, or rather a
string of beads. One of the vacant shops
on the Rue de Rivoli was occupied tenn
porarily by one of those Arab vendors of
pipes, perfumes, imitation iewelry, shawls.
ETC., wherewlth the visitors to Long Branch
and Newport at home have become famil-
lar A gentleman residing In the upper
part of the city stopped at this stall the
other day and purchased string of imita
ton pearls for which he paid ninety cents.
This necklace he gave to his daughter for
one of her dolls. A celebrated ieweler
happened to call one evening while the
chlid was engaged in amusing herself
with her new toy. Glow foolish Won are
10 let child have so valuable an object to
play with" remarked the ieweler to the
father. Valuable!" responded the LAT.
ter : l gave four francs and half for If
the other day" The jeweler took the
necklace from the little girl and examined
it long and infinitely. 81 do not care
what you paid for it, he said at length.
" but this much do know: the pearls are
real, and the necklace is worth 10 900
francs ($2, OO0), at the very lowest compu-
tation. Ifyou doubt my sincerity | will
prove it by giving you 5000 francs for it
on the spot" The next morning the gen.
teman fastened with the necklace to the
place where he had purchased it, but the
shop had in the meantime been rented,
and the Arab had disappeared. How a
string OF real pearls had got mixed up
with his beads of wax and glass must,
therefore, of course, remain a mystery.
Moral Let us buy largely and continuously
OF Imitation jewels, in the hope that they
may turn out real.

, A Suspicious Character.

A Willimantic Conn., paper tells Gu
rious story about a Norwich clergyman
who supplied a country pulpit on a recent
Sunday and was obliged on his return
home the next morning to travel by stage
coach about three miles to the railway
station. On the route the driver heard
something rattle in the gentleman's car
pet bag which sounded to him like pieces
of steel striking together. Putting the
gentleman's reserved manner, keen ap-
pearance and the ominous sounds from
the carpet-bag together the driver con-
cluded that his passenger was first-class
burglar - perhaps a bank burglar -
and after his arrival at the depot
he hunted up an officer and impaired
his suspicious to him. The officer went
to the depot and there was the suspected
burglar pacing up and down the platform,
waiting for the train. The officer thought
him suspicious looking character and
his suspicious were confirmed by the te-
nacity with which the gentleman chung to
the carpet bag, for it was never out of his
hand from the time he left the stage until
the train came. In short time the train
came along and the traveller entered and
took seat The officer, intent on duty,
saw gentleman on the train with whom
ne was acquainted. pointed out the SuS-
pected individual, impaired his suspi-
cions and requested his friend to notify
the police in Norwich if the gentleman
stopped there SO that they might be on
their guard. When the train arrived at
Norwich the gentleman alighted and
went uptown, Swallowed closely by the
other man until the latter found a police
man, when, pointing out the suspected
party, he inquired of the officer if he
knew that man. Know him? Yes!

The Hangman's Tree.

In Dry Gulch, just outside of Helena,
Mont, stood, until few days ago.
big pine tree, with great, sprangling
branches, on which, in the early days of
that Territory, no less than sixteen male
factors dangled, at various times, in ex-
piatiOn of their crimes. But last week it
fell before the woodman's ak, and was
converted into ashes to its last friendly
service to mankind. The act of cutting it
down by the owner of the land on which
it stood was denounced as a piece of van
dalism, and considerable indignation was
manifested by the old-timers. The tree
has been dead for some time, and would
ere long have naturally bowed before
some strong headed tempest; but it we
could have had our way it should never
have fallen by human hands. 1t was an
historic landmark Many of our citizens
still remember the day and circumstances
when Johnny Keene there paid the PEN
atty for the first murder committed in
Helena. Many more remember the last
occasion, when the two wretches who
robbed and thought they had murdered
and killed the poor Dutchman in the val
ley, little way from town, were con-
veYed to the same tree to settle the SEN
tence that had been pronounced by the
Grand Jury of all our citizens, with only
one dissenting one. A few, perhaps, may
be able to remember every one of the many
other executions that have occurred on the
same tree. Perhaps the tree had become
an unwelcome object to those who lived
so near as to be compelled to look upon
it daily. Perhaps there were some
who could not overcome a superstitious
dread at its appearance, and fancied
they heard the wailings and shrieks of the
doomed victims when the wild winds
mourned through its gnarled and with
cred branches. But to most of our people
it stood as symbol of swift vengeance,
to warn those on the paths of crime that
laws delays and technicalities could not
save murderer from the doom that his
crimes demanded Poor Daniels, with
an executive pardon in his pocket found
how weak defense it was to shield him
from the righteous wrath of an, outraged
people. The old pine tree stood as a 81
lent witness to a power higher than all
constituted authOrities-back of all the
forms and ceremonies ofcOurts and juries
of power not even conscious to itself of
its eXistence-a power born of an emer-
gency, when whole people become
awake in an instant to the presence of
common enemy, and the instinct of self
protection and self-preservation terrets out
the foe and dispatches it as a venomous
thing. There is something singular in
the coincidence that this hangman's tree
should stand till after the courts of law
have erected gallows and at least one
victim had suffered thereon. The dawn
of the new era had done away with the
necessity of preserving the emblems of
an earlier and ruder administration Of JUS
tice. Should like need for its use return
it will not be hard to supply its place. So,
peace to its ashes.-Helena (Mont.) Herald

This is an expression that we hear from
doctors when they are in doubt about
the nature of the disease of their patients
The country seems to be filled with such
cases, and they are trying first one remedy
and then another, hoping in vain to find
relief. They generally have the following
symptoms; A general depression of spirits,
with evil forebodings, whirling sensation
in the head when rising up suddenly, foul
breath, with bad taste in the mouth,
especially in the morning, pain in the sides
and back, urine scanty and high colored,
frequently voided with difficulty, frequent
headaches, distressed feeling at the pit of
the stomach, food affording no nourishment.
The patient feels tired all the while, and
sleep affords but little rest After time a
dry, hacking cough sets in, followed after a
time with expectoration, hands and feet cold
and clammy at times, a general wasting of
the body. In such cases we need remedy
that will act upon the liver, ;kidneys, stomach
and blood at the same time, and when we
use such remedy it affords relief The
