A SINGULAR ACCIDEST.-Att the National
Rifle Association practice at Wimbledon
England, July 18th, an incident worthy OF
record occurred, owing to the heat Toe rays
OF the sun had, IL appeared, been playing on
The surface OF small mirror hanging 10 one
OF the bell tents In the regimental lines. The
glass reflected the rays on the roof of the
tent, and soon afterward the canvas took

noticed, and no time was lost In endeavorfng

further damage than its destruction, together
with few articles Of wearing apparel, took
place. Similar occurrences have happeoei
In india and other hot climates, but there is,
we believe, no precedent OF the kind in Eng,

DR. Do LEWIS having learned the mini
mum quantity OF food on which life can be
sustained, advises all young men TO marry
and settle down in life. His idea is that
"until man is married his life is lacking in
that which best develops his manhood" He
gives "old bachelors" some hard raps in
letter published In the Green Bay Wis., Adj
vocate, and then administers this rebuke 10
that class who are anxious to see the world
before marrying: "Seeing the world as the
young man does who has to earn his living
as he goes along amounts to very little
what he does see is nothing that helps him
light the battle OF life more successfully. Ii
only keeps him from habits which are In d.
rect antagonism to a correct and happy and
successful life, and when he gets through
knocking about he has nothing to show for
