SEWING MACHINES!

If you are wanting to buy a Sewing Ma
chiue, try new Wilson and you will have no
other
A trial will convince the most skeptical of
its superiority over all others, being adjusta-
BILE in all its parts, every movement being
positive, with perfect tension and adjusta-
BILE feed. 1t is simple, strong, durable and
cheap, light and rapid running, doing eli the
different varieties of sewing IRON the finest
fabric to the heaviest cloth or leather.
The latest improved Wilson will not run
backwards, thereby aypidingthe breakage of
needles and thread and necessitating the re-
moval of the goods from the machine while
winding the bobbins as is the case with all
other machines. HIti HEST PREMIUM AT

A Transaction in Silver.

The Rochester On. " Democrat says:
The Pacific express which arrived at
the Central depot from the West last
evening brought a shrewd confidence
man and his victim to this city. I'm
fortunately for the welfare of the public,
the police became acquainted only with
the latter individual. He was a tail,
smooth-faced fellow, and wore a look
that seemed to indicate that he had just
attended forty-fve funerals. 1t was
worse than that, however. He was
hundreds of miles from home and had
'nary a red, as he POLITICALLY described
it. He met a young fellow on the train,
and this young fellow made himself
familiar. He had acquired considerable
money in a silver mine, just outside the
Black Hills. 1t may have been the
Emma Mine, though the man says he IS
sure the fellow mentioned the Black
Hills. He was short of money, but had
some silver The gentleman was from
Appleton, Wis, and gives his name
as Richard Dunn. just before they
arrived in the depot the young
fellow proposed to sell him four
small silver bars worth twenty-five dol
lars. He would part with them for
twenty dollars, and the gentleman from
Wisconsin could sell them in any bank
for twenty-five dollars. Five dollars
was large sum in the eyes of the gen
tleman from Wisconsin, but he only had
seventeen dollars. He would give that
for the bars, and owe the young man
three dollars. After some hesitation the
offer was accepted and the young man
received the seventeen dollars, while the
gentleman from Wisconsin carefully
placed the four small bars in his pocket.
The train stopped and the young fellow
disappeared. The gentleman from Wis
consin congratulated himself on his
lucky speculation. 1t was too much for
him to keep. He must tell some one.
An old gentleman with spectacles came
in and took the seat the young man
had vacated. He coniided his secretto
him
Lead" was all the Old gentleman
with spectaeles said 70 the gentleman
from Wisconsin, as he handed back the
bar that had seen shown so triumph
antly.
The gentleman from Wisconsin said
never a word for full minute. Then
he started for that young man, who had
departed. OF course he could not find
him. Policeman Burns appeared, and
he learned the story. The small bars
were of pure lead, and worth about
twelve cents. When the gentleman
from Wisconsin fully realized the opera
ton his face assumed an expression
wonderfully well suited for a new
chrome, to be entitled "SOld Again. "
Policeman Burns took two of the bars
which had cost so much for samples,
and when the train left, the gentleman
from Wisconsin renewed his journey,
sadder, but a wiser man.

PUNGENT PARAGRAPHS

A MAN lately advertised that for one
dollar he would send to any address a
handsome package containing one hun
dred presents. Each package turned
out to be paper of pins.
THE young men who tried to initiate
the gentle sex at the leap-year party IN
Washington made great many ridicu
lous blunders. One of them warned
his partner against squeezing his hand,
and she called him a big BOBBY and no
girl at all.
THE latest phase of leap-year eccen-
tricity is recorded from Portsmouth, n.
H., where a lady clad in deep mourn
ing promenaded the streets, the other
day, with a ribbon in front of her fore
head, on which was embroidered in
white the word s'Alone."
WHEN a newspaper records the fact
that burglars failed to enter a house,
they should wind up the item by stating
that the fellows would have secured so

encourages other burglars.-Free Press.

Strangling a Man for Money.

A working man at Manchester, Eng
land, has been sent to prison for two
months with hard labor for hanging a
man with the view of eXtorting money
from him. Abricklayer's A laborer named
Pettener was returning from his dinner
to his WORK on the 10Th of August last,
when he was stopped on the high-road
by John Downs, also bricklayer, and
five other men, who demanded a shil-
ling from him for beer. On his declining
to accede to the demand Downs told him
that in that case" he must 90 undertheir
law" The gang thereupon dragged
Pettener to a tree and bound his hands
and arms with their belts. They then
tied their handkerchiefs together, and
having made anOOse at the end Of the
rope thus manufactured, they placed it
around Pettener's neck, and, under
DOwns's direction and superintendence,
hung the unfortunate man from a
branch of the tree. Feeling that he was
being strangled, Pettener managed to
call out that he would pay the money
demaned. Upon this he was taken
down, but when, on recovery, he eX-
planned that he had not got the shilling
in his possession, but would pay at some
future time, Downs directed his COM
panions to take him to an adjoining
brook and drown him. Pettener was
at once seized, and was being dragged
toward the brook, when, happily, he
was rescued by body of workmen en-
ployed at a building in course of cree
ticn near the spot, who, hearing of the
outrage, rushed up and put the gang to
flight. Three of Pettener's assailants
were arrested soon after the outrage
was committed, one being sentenced to
two months and the others to one
months imprisonment each. Downs,
the ringleader, absconded, but was sub
sequentiy arrested by the police, and
was sent to jail for two months at hard
labor.

Longevity of American Women.

DR.. Lambert, President of the POpu-
lar Insurance Company, of New York,
recently gave an interesting lecture IN
Boston on woman and her nature, du-
ties, needs, and entitlements. In the
course of his lecture DIR. Lambert said:
The English girls, so often spoken OF
for blooming cheeks and robust forms,
owed these qualities to their outdoor
life, the damp GOODNESS of the native
island and their fondness for the nation
al beverage, beer. The fact was, the
women in this country were lOnger-lived
than the English women. There prOba-
bly, was no place in Europe where so
many old people could be found in pro-
portion to the population as in New
Hampshire, and three out of every four
of the people who had reached the age
of ninety years in New Hampshire were
women.
The constitution of woman was sub
stantially the same as the constitution
of man, and the duration of their earth
ly existence, as a general rule, on the
American continent was the same.
Gliding into the peculiar marks and
formations of the body as indications Of
long or short life, the lecturer said that
il a lady wore heavy earring, and the
ear was pulled down in consequence,
presenting a distorted appearance, this
Indicated short life to the owner OF
the weak member. On the contrary,
should the ear retain its natural pO-
sition over heavy ring, the strength of
the gristle pointed to long life to the
owner.
And so with fingers. If hand had
very short fingers, that had an indlca-
tion of longevity, whereas long fingers
were indicative of a short span OF life.
Ii was not found that the prOpOrtiOnate
number of men and women dying at the
different ages varied materially. After
reaching the age of 20 girl was as La
bic to live to a good ripe old age as
man at the same period. As a rule, te-
male beauty and longevity were not
companions; those azure eyes and very
fair faces that carry off shOrt-liyed young
men are net lOng-lived.
Another wonderful fact was the con-
slant change going on in the body. The
air of the hall was at that moment tull
of particles of the brains and organiZa-
tions of those present. Every day, every
hour, aye, every moment, worked a
change in every living form The speak
er said that he would like to see women
withdraw from the post-ofiees, count
iHg-rooms, and other positions of labor
where they were half paid, and young
men put in and paid double the amount
paid women. Then the men could sup
port thewomen.
Every man had woman beside him,
and should work for her instead of hav-
ing her earn her living outside OF the
household. The young men, he thought
ought not to be crowded out OF the
places and sent West. Men OF long lie
usually had some great and strong Prin-
ciple in their characters, some stamina
which symbolized a vigorous and endur-
ing vitality.
