Trout for One Dollar a Pound.

A CORRESPONDENT, writing from Will
JAMESTOWN, Mass, says that the proprietor
of the Mansion House has fish-pond in
which the speckled beauties disport them
selves, and in which guests are permitted
to fish by paying one dollar per pound for
all the fish they catch. DR.. Railway and
family, Gen. Stetson and family, with
scores of other well-k known New Workers,
are sojourning at the Mansion" Fish
ing in the pond is favorite amusement,
particularly as very few fish are caught
The other day the whole party had tried
their luck with no results, and Mr.. Bailey
was ridiculing their lack of skill. Finally,
Gen. Stetson asked permission to fish.
Certainly" said Mr.. Bailey, wonder
ing at his attempting where all others had
failed; " certainly, you may fish for moth
ing; and, more than that, instead of you
payingme, I'll pay you one dollar pound
for all you catch"
cali right" said Gen. Stetson, throwing
a fly with all the precision of an old Ad-
irondacker.
The crowd looked on with breathless in
terest The float bObbed, the line ran out,
and after struggle of few minutes Q
magnificent four FOUNDER was gasping on
the grass. Mr.. Bailey was astonished.
But establishment soon gave place to grief.
Another, another, and still another
leviathan was drawn from the depths by
the plucky sportsman.
"Stop," cried Mr.. Bailey, this has
gone far enough. Why, 1 won't have a
trout leftp'
But the General did not stop just then.
He went on until 200 pounds Of the pref
test trout that ever took fly were lying
on the grass. Mr.. Bailey was as good as
his word. He paid the $500, which was

Estimated Cost of the Centennial.

JOHN WEIGH, President of the Centen-
NAL Board of Finance, in response to in
quiries by Mr.. Payton as to the cost of
the exhibition and as to what will be de-
rived at the close from all sources of reve-
nues, has written a letter stating that the
total cost of all the buildings, improve
ment of the grounds, and expenses Incl
dent to the organization and conduct of the
United States Centennial Commission,
Centennial Board of Finance, and of the
exhibition until its close will be $500,

A Boardfng.SchoOl in 1870.

INVITE you, boys and girls, to cross
the wide Atlantic and find amusement in
visiting boarding-school or academy of
the olden time.
In the days of good Queen Bess schools
were few and far between, as angels visits
are said to be, but in the town of Norwich,
England, there existed a celebrated " train
ing-school' for the youth of both sexes:
An old abbey furnished the requisite
room, and high born maidens slept in the
cells where nuns had once repeated their
are Marias, and were gathered by day in
a school-room which had formerly been
used as refectory or dining-hall. Sepa-
rated from this building by a crumbling
stone wall of great height was the ancient
monastery, which was now transformed
into an academy for the boys of Albion:
Both buildings were wcllnigh covered
with beautiful clambering ivy.
The children of that day, in dress and
appearance, were exact miniature copies
of grown-up people.
Queen Elizabeth numbered 5000 robes
in her wardrobe, and the daughters Of no.
blemen carried with them to school from
thirty to 800 dresses, according to the
wealth and station of their parents.

INDUSTRIAL.

ACCORDING to DIR. Hoffman, fluid
called liquid parchment" consisting OF
gutta-percha softened and soaked in ether
is especially adapted for forming a coat
ing for pictures and cards, as it permits
the removal of dirt with a moist rag.
Pencil and crayon drawings may be rem
dered ineffaceable by sprinkling them
with this liquid by means of an atomizer,
an exceedingly delicate film remaining
after the evaporation of the ether.
THE city of Fall River, Mass, has forty
three mills within its limits, containing
1 ,259, 508 spindles, and 20 ,S65 looms, over
one-eighth of all the spindles in the United
States, and manufactures over one-half of
all the print cloths. The monthly pay
rolls amount to more than 100000, and
10 900 hands are employed in the busy
season. The cessation of such an indus
try will make itself felt throughout the
United States, yet in the end it will result
more disastrously to the working people
than to anyone else. 1t is a better time
for a lockout than for a strike.
THE New Orleans Times says the rice
crop is one of the most profitable that can
be raised in Louisiana, and requires but
small working capital. 1t estimates the
entire cost for preparing the land and for
seed at $3.50 per acre. Its cultivation
and shocking amount to $13 more, and
the expenditures, $3.50 for threshing and
handling, sum up $23 for twelve barrels
of rough rice, which can be produced on
one acre. Milling, freight, package, in
surance, drayage and commission will
amount to $13. 40 more, making total ex-
penditure of 1894 for 1900 pounds of
clean rice worth $84 1t will be seen that
net profit of $47.6O per acre is thus
given, making allowance for the wages of
laborers and every other expense. One
hundred acres has heretofore been consid-
cred the task of three men, which would
pay each 81 $50. Sc for six months work.
SOME of.the most beautiful transparent
photographs are now produced by proc
ess in which paraffin acts most impor-
tant part. An ordinary fiat-iron is made
available for mounting the print upon the
glass-using piece of bibulous paper be-
tween the iron and the print to absorb the
superfuous paraffin. Such mounting is
very usefully employed for securing the
soft effect produced by placing second
picture behind the transparency. In this
method of manipulating it is necessary to
melt the paraffin, the mixture being CON-
posed as follows: Parafin, two drains !;
benZole, five fluid drains; Canadian bal
sam, half fluid dram. This compound
is fluid at ordinary temperatures, or, if not
so, the warmth of the hand will render it
liquid. The paraffin is melted, removed
some distance from the light, and four
fluid drains of the benzOle added during
agitation; the balsam is dissolved in the
other dram of benzole, and the whole then
mixed together. The advantages of such
a mixture as this are that it can be applied
cold with brush, and that it dries per-
fectly in a very short time if the benzole
be Of good quality. To perfect the adhe-
sion, however, the warm iron should be
passed over the surface after it is quite dry.

A Child Barely Rescued From the
Jaws Of An Alligator.

LAST Saturday, about shutdown, fOul
| miles east OF this place, on Biloxi Bay
| occurred a scene calculated to send a thrill
| of horror through every human heart, ant
to make even the boldest tremble with
fear. Two little girls, daughters of Mr.
Bay of Biloxi, while bathing in the bay
Immediately in front of his dwelling, were
attacked by an enormous alligator. The
elder, girl of about seven years of age
was holding the younger, an infant of
two years, in her hands and was quietly
enjoying her bath when suddenly her little
sister was snatched from her and borne
swiftly from the shore. Terrified beyond
measure and unable TO render any assist
ance to her unfortunate sister the elder
girl uttered a scream, which was quickly
caught by the ear Of the father, who hap
pened, accidentally, to be passing within
thirty or forty yards of the spot where his
daughters were bathing. Realizing in
stantly from the tone of the voice that his
children were in some peril, but unable to
conjecture its exact nature, Mr.. Blackwell,
who is an active and athletic man, rushed
rapidly to their assistance, and arrived at
the spot just in time to discover his little
daughter being borne out into the bay by
an alligator. Comprehending the scene
at once, and nerved to almost superhuman
effort by the desperate situation of his
child, the agonized father leaped madly
into the water in pursuit of the
would-be destroyer of his daughter,
which was then some twenty five
or thirty yards from shore. The water for
distance of forty or fifty yards out into
the bay from the point where the children
we're bathing ranges in depth from one
and half to two feet, and then suddenly
attains depth of forty or fifty feet, and
both the animal (which by this time had
discovered the pursuit) and the father
seemed to realize that, the deep water i'm
mediately in front of them once reached
pursuit and recovery would be alike i'm
possible; both, therefore, redoubled theil
efforts, the one to reach the point, the
other to prevent it. In this struggle, al
though sinking to his waist in the soft
mud at the bottom. at each bound, the
father was successful. He succeeded in
grasping his child by the arm about ten
feet from deep water. The alligator
which all the while held the child's foot in
its mouth, perceiving itself overtaken, and
alarmed and confused by the bOldness o.
the assault, released its hold, and made it,
way rapidly into the deep water in front q
it. The father, completely exhausted
raised his child out of the water, and, per
seadyimg that it still Aiiyed, by desperat!
effort succeeded in regaining theshore and
depositing the child safely in the hands e

An Incident OF the Flood In Missouri.

MR.. AND Mrs. HARTMANN, old resi-
dents of Joplin, it will be remembered,
had leased tract of land near the site of
the Grand Falls, place fast gaining a
reputation as pleasure resort.
The heavy rains of Thursday night had
started Shoal Creek off on boom. Not
withstanding the water was raging at their
door Mrs. Hartmann strongly opposed
leaving the house, saying that it would
raise no more, thar it was already falling,
etc., which seemed to influence Mr.. Hart
mann and also Mr.. Krauss and "a boy who
was stopping with them at the time.
While preparations were being made to
get out piano and other valuables in the
house the water burst in upon and COM
pletely surrounded them. In this predic-
ament they experienced some alarm. In
the meantime their boat had washed
away. The boy swan ashore, but the
rest, being inexperienced in the
art of swimming, were inevitably
obliged to stick to the building. By
this time the water was travelling through
the house at the rate of ten miles an hour
Finally they were forced to seek refuge at
a higher position. And still higher! when
they cut through the roof and were driven
to the highest possible point. At this
stage freo1ent shouts for assistance were
INDUCED in, but, there being no boats al
hand, all assistance was rendered useless.
Parties on shore witnessed the impending
danger, and, noticing that the water was
still on the rise, sought the city at about
eight o'clock in the evening for assistance
A load, with skiff and lanterns, was i'm
mediateiy made up and started for their
rescue. They arrived at the waters edge
just as a large log struck the house and
completely wrecked the. entire building
They all three chung to portion Of the
roof, the weight causing it to sink with
| them. Mr.. and Mrs. Hartmann grabbed
| log, while the professor grabbed limb
| of tree, which he chung to like grim
death, and managing to keep his head
above water he occupied this position un-
til the water had fallen sufficient to allow
him to take refuge on the main body OF
the tree, where he remained until eleven
O'Clock the next day. After several at
tempts by Messrs. Zane and Lupton he
was finally rescued, although in an almost
helpless condition. His legs were fear
fully bruised and cut, and he sustained
several severe bodily injuries. In max
| ing the attempt to rescue Mr. Krauss the
boat was several times capsized with
Messrs Zane and Lupton, and Lane him.

FOREIGN GOSSIP.

WITH most cadaverous countenance
and Grape on his hat he waited at Paris
station for the coffin to be lifted out of the
train; but it was heavy, for it was lined
with lead. And while the people looked
on with sympathy and wondered if it was
his wife, his mother or his father, the
well-informed police invited him into
private room, where they opened the coffin
and emptied il of its load of Brussels lace.
THE Paris Founding Hospital has set
up novel claim lately. One of its pro-
teges, whose mother was dead, and whose
father had abandoned it, inherited for
tune from relative of the mother. At
once the father claimed the custody of the
child, the mothers relatives claimed it,
and the hospital claimed the right to hold
the child and administer the fortune, but
the law gave the child to a guardian
chosen by the relatives of the mother.
RECENTLY foreign embassy sought the
aid of the English police to find young
girl who had just become the heiress OF
many millions. The instructions were
vague, and the task was necessarily given
to one of the keenest detectives. At the
end of six weeks the detective reported at
headquarters and handed in his resigna-
ton. "Well,'' said the chief, and what
about the young girl" found her
about month ago in dressmaker's shop"
was the answer. "And what them" az
married her yesterday, and this morning
have just received her 100000"
A STRANGE case of poisoning has (says
the Paris correspondent of the Ect0) just
happened at Condo. A man engaged in
smuggling Belgian tobacco into France
clothed himself from neck to foot with
tobacco leaves and then put on his ordi
nary garments. But, unfortunately, the
weather was very hot, and he had some
distance to walk before crossing the 'front.'
ier. So he got into aviolent perspiration,
which resulted in such an absorption
through the skin of the poisonous duali-
ties of the fragrant weed that the poor
smuggler was taken ill on the way, was
caught by the Custom House officers, and
now lies in dying state.
A TRAGIC event occurred lately in di-
vorce court at Constantine, in Algeria.
The wife of Bel Kassem appeared before
the Cadi and demanded divorce from her
husband, on the ground that he had i'll
treated her. In spite of the strenuous OPP
position of the respondent the Cadi gave
Judgment in favor of the lady, who,
triumphantly pronouncing the orthodox
formula, II repudiate thee" bounced out
of the court. The custom of the country
wills that defeated sutton should kiss the
Judge upon the shoulder, to show that he
acknowledges the justice of his sentence.
In accordance with this usage Bel-Kassem,
in apparent submission, moved toward
the Cadi But, as he drew near, his man
ner suddenly changed. Dashing aside his
burnous, he sprang upon the unfortunate
Judge and drove his knife into his throat.
The murderer then threw down his weapon
and surrendered himself to the gendarmes,
saying, quietly: 81 have killed the Cadi
because, according to the Koran, a Judge
who gives an unjust sentence deserves to
be put to death"
