There is humor in suicides. Miss
Pixley, of South Lee. jumped into a
river to drown herself and then pulled
herself out by the bough of tree
under which she iioated. She writes
an account for the newspapers. saying:
..lf there is any one who reads this
foolish enough to want to die before
Gods chosen time. don't jump into
the river where there are trees with
limbs hanging in the water, for if you
do, no matter how determined You are
to leave this world, you will either
have to make up your mind to stay a
little longer or else try it again. which
later yon will not be likely to do.
LAWYER Bancroft, of San Francisco

Mr.. Ellis, photographer, of Liver
pool was murderously attacked on Nov.
23d by lunatlc in a railway train, on
it's way from Liverpool to Chester.
After making furious attempts to cut
his throat with clasp knife, the mad
man bit him so terribly that thumb OF
his left hand had subsequently to be
amputated. An alarm having been
given, the train was brought to a
standstill, but not before the assailant
had leaped through the carriage win
dow and been held by the heels by Mr..
Ellis until that gentleman tainted from
loss of blood. This is one of the beau
ties of the compartment system of cars
which the English adhere to with such
tenacity.

ample of the customs of the Olden
times relates this of Jonathan Ed

the good men and families were as
sembled in their respective highbacks.
the minister arriving in his black
gown, would lead his family up the
aisle, and at the first notice of his APP
pearing the whole congregation would
rise. When he had seated his family
and mounted his pulpit throne, the
people would sit amid the creaking OF
boots and humping of warming pans.
when the weather was cold, with per
haps rap of the tithing-man who
stood in the rear and presided over the
boys collected together, apart from
their families. This public respect
paid the minister was continued in his
family

mored that 10000 French volunteers
will join the British army in case OF
war with Russia, tempted by the boun-
ty and pay. A recruiting office is said
to have been opened at st. Hitler, in
the Island Of Jersey. which has already
enlisted considerable number. 1t is

The London Finanoier says that
bankers could if they chose tell good
deal about the growing prosperity of
Ireland. They have for some time
past been much struck by the magni-
tude of the deposits lodged with them
by persons of apparently very humble
means. The old tendency to hoard and
hide money in the roof is declining,
and the people are gradually investing
heir savings.
