Execution Of French WoHen

TIE Paris correspondence alesding Jour
hal' IN . recent communication, writes ths
following;
Sophie Gsnthier had been found guilty Of
. horrible crime; she had killed al her
children BY means a pins, which she stuck
INTO their brain- The death a this revolt
ing criminal recalls a few interesting facts
connected with the execution Of women in
France Since ls40 nine women have bean
executed. and they all met their death with
great hrmnes Ten years ago a man and
woman were executed at Chartres for hsy-
ing murdered their parents. In those DAYS
the guillotine was not the horribly neatand
compact little instrument that it is now
there We're steps to ascend before coming
into contact with the executioner. When
the criminal couple reached the foot of the
scaffold the woman said, 81 should like IN
embrace my husband before dying. PRAY
unite my hand you can tie them again inn.
mediately afterward." This supreme wish
was reluctantly granted. for it was contrary
to the regulations. Her hands were no
sooner free then she gathered up ali her
strength. and gave her husband a ringing
box on the ear. According to custom, she
was the first to suffer the extreme penalty
OF the law. Before the man had recovered
from the stunning blow she had dealt him.
her head had fallen into the sawdust.
Another woman, who created great SEN
sation at the time. was virginie Dezon, who
had murdered her husband and two chill
dren. She was only twenty five years of age.
wonderfully beautiful. and belonged to one
OF the best families of France. She had not
the slightest fear Of death. and the moment
the sentence was passed she sent a letter to
the Emperor, begging there might be no
delay in carrying it out. Prison life and
the loss of her long black hair produced a
much more disagreeable impression upon
this delicate woman than the sight of tho
hideous ~chopping block and knife. MANY
summary executions of women took place
when h regular troops entered Paris
during the Instruction. 1 remember see-
ing one of the advanced Republican ladies
placed against the vail behind the Great.

body Of the sentry. al did" was the reply.
"and am only sorry that 1 did not see You
before. as you were better worth the
trouble" Two minutes afterward she was
lying on her face with twelve bullets in her
body. Death had been instantaneous her
victim, the soldier, lived two hours after
and expired in horrible pain.

There are some ants which till the ground.

rear them in their own nests to be their

their dead-a fact which was discovered by
accident. A lady had been obliged to kill
some ants. the bodies of which lay about
the ground. Presently a single ant found
its dead companions, examined them, and
then went off. Presently it returned with
q number of others, and proceeded to the
dead bodies. -Four ants vent to each corpse
two lifting it up and the other two follow
ing ; the main body, some two hundred in
number, following behind. The four bear
ers took their Office in turns. one pair re.
lieving the other when they were tired.
They went straight to a sandy hillock, and
there the bearers pat down their burdens,
and the others Immediately began to dig
holes. A dead ant was then placed in zach
grave, and the soil filed in. The six or
seven ants refused to assist in grave-dig-
ging. upon which the rest set on them.
killed them, dug one large hole. and tum-
bled them unceremoniously into it.

Concerning DISTINCTIONS of Streets

The Board of Trustees of the
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1876-09-06
A Remedy for Dusty Roads.

Mr.. A. Houzen has recently suggested
to the French Academy of Sciences q
mode of preventing dust on roads, etc.,
which, if experience demonstrates it's
practicability, will be found both simple
and useful. He proposes simply to
mix with the water, wherewith the
thoroughfares are sprinkled, a small
quantity (amount not stately of chlor-
ide of calcium. This he thinks, will
form a patina or crust Of cOnsid cradle
resisting power, which will last for sew
eral days, and which will hinder both
the drying of the soil and it's disinteg-
ration by vehicles, etc. At the
same time it will prevent the growth
of weeds, and thus, on private roads
and walks, prove labor.saving. A SIM
liar application of salts in solution was
made in London three years ago, with
complete success.
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1876-09-06

er he expected heavy grass but there
was no more than ton to the acre,
while that which was pastured, was
very heavy, but there was another diff
ference-the latter was plastered. He
did not feel like recommending a top
dressing of barn-yard manure. Secre-
tary Card said that his observation was
that pastured meadows did the best.
Mr.. McCapn did not pasture a certain
meadow last year, and the crop this
year had greatly improved. He believ-
ed that stock should altogether be kept
off of the meadows, yet he was not GER
tain that he was right. Mr.. Armstrong
said there were SO many different cir
cumstances of season, of soil, of condi-
ton, of exposure and of situation, that
it is utterly impossible to establish any
thing more than general rules for the
treatment of our meadows. He had
believed with the majority of those who

eight acres, which last fall, while IN the
care of a tenant, was not only closely
pastured, but it was farther outraged
by feeding upon it in all conditions of
weather, the fodder corn and pumpkins
which the farm afforded for q dairy of
twenty head. And so the discussion

treatment of meadows, and see if we
can get any more light.-Prairie Far
