There has been 80 much said about the or
preston Of the poor man by the Town Council
in not allowing cows TO run at iargp, that a
gentleman has furnished us statistics from the
assessment books, show ing that the poor man is
not injured at all by the operation Of the ord-
nance, but that large proportion of COW own
ers are also owners Of real estate. The assess-
mcnt book for 1876 shows that the number of
cows owned in the built up and suburban dis.
trctS by persons owning real estate is seventy
seven and the assessed value Of prop rty of
the owners of these seventy-scven cows is $l27,
S95. which is perhrps half the actual value Of
the property. There ar" only fifteen cows in
the town owned by parties who have no real
estate assessed to them. And yet the Town au-
thorities are asked to allow nincty.two COWS the
privilege Of roaming at large through the streets
in order that fifteen cows whose owners have no
real estate may lie permitted to pick living at
the public expense.

are those diabolically ingenious little mats
which are stuck on the backs of chairs but
which never stay there, at least when a man sits
in the chair. The ladies nave always taken
much interest in these little affairs, but we new
er knew II man who did. We hope that the rti-
NOR is tr and that the fair sex will devote their
energies.to the manufacture of other articles
which will not havo the effect of producing i'll

An Indians Last Shot.

-Four white men, while out hunting
about two miles from Deadwood, killed
a deer, and while they were skinning it,
one of them saw an Indian approaching
them, leading his pony. He was prob
ably trying to surprise them, but, being
rcertain Of their exact position, he had
AZ ,,roached too near, and they discover
ed him first. One of the party snatched
up his shotgun, loaded with buckshot,
and fired both barrels, bringing down
the Indian and his pony. The confident
manner in which the Indian had walked
toward them had led them to suppose
that he was supported by number OF
others, and 80 they quickly retreated to-
ward Deadwood for re-enforcements. A
party started out to scout the country,
and, on reaching the spot where the deer
lay, the men saw the body OF the Indian
by the side of his pony, and, thinking
him dead, they rushed forward. This
action was fatal to one of the party, tor
a shot from the Indians rifle struck him
in the heart. A volley from the others
killed the Indian instantly, however,
and his body was quickly surrounded by
the white men. The Indian had been
almost riddled with buckshot, or shoul-
der and both legs having been broken,
yet he had managed to bandage his legs
and 20 take unerring aim with his
wounded arm. Knowing that his life
would be taken without doubt, he had
prepared to sell it as dearly as possible,
and; lying on his back, he rested his
rifle on his wounded legs and shot dead
the foremost of his assailants. In his
mouth was another cartridge ready to
reload. His rifle was the best and latest
breech loading arm issued to the army
in 1875, and it was probable that he had
obtained it in the Custer or Reno fight,
since an old bullet mark in the grip OF
the stock showed that it had been in &C.

SO Long Ago.

A remarkable case is to be found in
your own country, says Prof. Huxley, in
one of his lectures, in the neighborhood
of the magnificent falls of Niagara. In
the immediate vicinity of the whirlpool,
and again upon Goat island, in the su-
perGcial deposits which cover the sur
face of the soil of the rock in those re-
gions, there are found remains of ami
mails in perfect preservation-shells be-.
longing TO exactly the same form as at
present inhabit the still waters of Lake
Erie. 1t is evident here from the forma
ton of the country that these animal
remains were deposited in the beds in
which they arc found, at the time OF
which the lake extended over the re.
gion in which they are found, and that
involves the necessity that they existed
and lived and di' before the falls had
cut their way back through the gorge OF
Niagara; and indeed it is possible to de-
teruine that at that time the falls OF
Niagara must have been at least six
miles further down the river than they
are at present. Many computations
have been made of the rate at which Nj.
agara is thus cutting its way back. Those
computations have varied greatly, but I
am speaking within the bounds of pru-
dence, if 1 assume that at it's greatest
rate of eating back, the falls of Nj
agara have not retreated ut greater
pace than about foot a year. Six
miles, speaking roughly, are $4,000
feet: 10000 feet, at foot year, are
30, 600 years, and we are fairly justified
in concluding that no less period than
that has passed since these. shellfish,
whose remains are left in the beds to
which we have referred, were deposited.

Plotting to Murder his Father and
Mother.

The Bravo poisoning case is not off
the English mind before young Eng
lishman of Hertford startles the public
by prosecuting companion for conspir-
ing against the life of his own parents.
The prosecutor bears the name Of
Augustus Dickens, aud on his own con-
fession has lived most 7agabond life.
The defendant is Paul Bayart, son of a
French WOODEN manufacturer of Roubaix.
1t is claimed by Dickens that Paul hired
him to 60 to France, visit Roubaix. nl
there murder his father as he went out
for his morning walk over his grour DIS,
and his mother as she went to chapel.
The young man furnished his mcrcenary
with plan OF Roubaix and full direc-
tions rs to finding his fathers residence,
and photographs by which he could
identify the old people. He gave Dick
ems a note of e500 as reward for the
deed, saying that he did not wish him
to think that he (Bayart) did not love
his parents, because he did, but his
financial situation made their removal
necessary. Bayart's defense is that the
entire allegation is false and all the
documents put in are forgeries. His
two brothers were summoned from
Roubaix, the eldest partner with his
father in business amounting OF 4, ,00O,-
900 francs year, and they denied that
any of the criminatory handwriting was
that of Paul. Dickens, after putting the
affair in the hands of the police, very
strangely sent to the father at Roubas
demand for cash on the note of e5OO,
which is claimed by the defense to give
a cue to the whole affair as blackmail.
ing operation on his part. Dickens had
had also quarrel with Catholic priest.
Father Stanfeld, to whom the Bayart
boy seemed to be consigned, he be-
ing in England to acquire knowledge
of the language to use in his fathers
business. Cardinal Manning WAS ap.
pealed to, and wrote letter to some of
Dickens friends about the quarrel. Ac
cording to Dickens story the killing was
to be effected by an air gun, and con
siderable confrmatory evidence was Of
fered to show that Paul Bayart had been
making inquiries in regard to poisons
which leave no trace. It is queer case,
and Bayart was bound over in 920O bail
for trial. The probability would seem
to be that Dickens had ingeniously
strung together a lot of carefully con-
trived incidents to give weight and sub
stance to an outrageous fiction.

A Good Suggestion.

W. J. Spicer, superintendent of the
Grand Trunk railway of Canada, has
issued circular to his subordinates, in
which he says: Moderate drinking too
frequently induces sleep or perhaps a
foolhardy indifference and recklessness,
either OF which conditio is alike dan
gerous in connection with the move
ment of trains. The importance of totcl !
abstinence, particularly amongst rail-
way employees, cannot be overestimated;
the experience of the last three years has
so convinced me of its good effects that
I have determined to renew my pledge
for another year, and I hope that the as
sistant superintendent, agents, train
men, and the traffic staff generally, will
join heartily with me in the movement.

That Car Window.

1t requires six men, according to the
San Francisco Ne,Os Letter, to put up a
car window. A young lady gets in, and
having bumped around in her seat for
about five minutes, she turns and re-
quests the gentleman just behind her to
perform that service. This is near
sighted individual, who peers around
the window frame some time for the
catch, and then-of course the window
sticks-jerks his finger half off and sits
down with red face, amid the giggling
of the schoolgirls opposite. Next, the
man in the front seat puts his lavender
colored knee on paper of cherries be-
side him, clutches and yanks at the
knob, and finally falls over into the
young lady's lap. The cause of all this
misery now remarks that cit doesn't
matter" aud then smiles sweetly at a
pale young man with long hair. This
martyr turns white, rises, and buttons
up his coat for the death struggle. On
the eleventh pull he bursts blood
vessel somewhere, and goes into the
toilet compartment to bleed. A simple
minded mechanic now comes forward
with his tool bag, from which he takes
crowbar. Just when he is about to
use this the conductor happens by, and
slides the window airily up with gen.
tie twist of the wrist.

as long as he is not allowed to have q
share in the profits with his employer.
