Virginia City Chronicle.D }

Last evening there was some extraordi-
nary fun in the gymnasium. A boxing
class had been formed, consisting of ten
pupile. Some wag connected with the in
stitution conceived the idea of getting up
a riot in the class. He went about it in q
novel and ingenious way. Before the
hour for the class meeting he bored hole
through the ceiling aud let down a rope, to
the end of which he fastened canvaes
bag filed with sand. Above he had q con-
federate manipulating the rope. When all
was in readiness, he remarked
"Now, boye, I'M put you through the
first exercise. All get around the bag in a
circle and begin to punch with your fsts.
Each man must try and drive the bag over
to the man opposite, and the hrst man that
fails to keep the bug away from him sets
up the beer
This proposal was received with enthusi-
asm, and the class collected about the bag.
At the word they all began to punch with
| o will, getting more earnest and excited
every minute. just about this time the
| fellow overhead, who was watching the
progress of the game through hole in the
ceiling, suddenly jerked up the bag about
foot above the heads of the excited class.
The effect can be easily imagined. Each
man hit the opposite man on the nose and
then they began to battle blindly. While
the riot went on the man above occupied
his time in pulling the bag up and letting
it drop on the heads of the combatants.
The way the blood spurted around over
the floor would have delighted Wild Bill.
They rolled over, got each others heads
in chancery, and struck from the shoulder
in dead earnest, and had plenty of fun gem
orally. When they finally got quieted down
and began to look for the two men who
put up the Job, the parties could not oe
found.

an ILLUMINATING cANNON SHOT.

One of the most simple and ingenious
contrivspces, for the purpose of inveetiD 8
a Acct with q zone of light through which
no enemy could pass without being obserV
ed, has been devised by NJ. Ferdinand
SIlas, of Vienna, whose experiments with
lifebuoys at Portsmouth have been report
ed in these columns. NJ. Silas' inextin-
guiehable lightning shell is similar To q
common shell, can be made to tt any gun,
and can, accor dipgly, be projected to any
distance. The projectile consists OF three
parts, one within the other. within tue
she'll proper is q lining of wet sPoDge, ana
within this ia a glass bottle, which fills the
whole cavity the bottom of the shell un-
screwing to admit of its entrance. Ihls
bottle is filed with various charges OF
phosphide, none of which, however, is to
be- less than ten pounds. A small channel
is bored through the sharp point OF the
shell in order to allow the air TO mix freely
with the wet sponge, and there are
couple of apertures in the head which are
plugged with wooden choppers covered
with leather. Through the movable bot
tom of the shell a steel striker is inserted,
which is fitted with q epriDg, and commu-
picates with the glass bottle within. When
the light shell is fred, the spring striker lie
driven forward by the explosion like gas
check and go breaks the bottle the water
contained in the jacket Of sponge then pen
etrates through the broken glass and satu-
rates the phosphide phosphuretted hydro
gen is Immediately generated in large
quantities, by the pressure OF which the
shoppers are forced out and two streams OF
illumin ating matter are poured upon the
sea. The light burns with great brilliancy
for a considerable time, and is claimed to
be inextnguishable London Iimes.

Many an unwise parent labors hard and lives
sparingly all his life for the purpose of leaving
enough to give his children start in the world,
as it IS called. Setting a young man s1oat
with money left him by his relatives is like
tying bladders under the arms of one who can
not swim ten chances to one he will lose his
bladders and go to the bottom. Teach hirn to
swim and he will rever need the bladders
Give your child a sound education, aud you
have done enough for him. See to it that his
morals are pure, his mind cultivated and his
whole nature made subservient to laws
which govern man. and you have given what
will be of more value than the wealth of the
Indies.

REAL OLD SOLID COMFORT - The other
afternoon a frog catcher from the city came
across two bootblacks in camp on the river
bank, near the lighthouse. Their tent was
composed of old coffee sacks sewed together.
and was just large enough to keep the sun of
q spot three feet square. The lads we're boil
ing potatoes in an old wash dish and frying o
very thin fish on piece of sheetiron. They
had an yster can to drink out of q bed made
Of weeds.
"What are we doin' here 7" Indignantly re-
piled one of the lads when questioned. why,
we % out our Summer p TIP a ano having the
all gone and the crackers eaten mp, but we've
got fish and taters left, and you kin tell the
boys in town that shau't come back till
we've recuperated right up to a hundred and
fifty pounds apiece. We hsin't on the Sara
togy lay, we hain't, but we are after real old
solid comfort"

The Philadelphia Press publishes the
following account of how a Redemptorist
Father in Pittsburg saved Philadelphia
soldier:
"Henry Shaw, - private in the State Fen
ciblea, who was wounded In the Pittsburg
riots has died from the effects of his inju
ries. Lieutenant Charlton of the Sixth
Regiment, tells the following story of his
friend's death: 1T was during the march
of the Fret Division, when they were go
ing up b utler street aud nearing the bridge
which crosses the Allegheny near Sharpe
burg, when poor Shaw received q terrible
guDshot wound in the grcin. He staggered
across the street, and into the door of St.
Philomena's Church. Some service WAS
going on, but the officiating priest at once
dismIRsed the congregation, aud taking the
wounded man, hid hum in pl ace OF safety
near the altar. In another mOmeut the
ferocious mob entered IN a search for their
victim, bat were foiled in their attempt to
discover him. After comparative silence
had been restored, the pres. procured "A
carriage, and placing Shaw inside drove
with HIM towards the hospital. The car
Tiage on the way was surrounded Ivy the
mob, who, learning that Philadelphia
soldier was inside, clamorcd for his deliv-
cry into their hands. The priest stood up,
and, finding percussion of no avail, threat
ened them with vengeance il they should
attempt To lay hand on the wounded man.
He was successful in getting him from the
hands of the blood thirsty scoundrels.'"
The Sunday Mercury remarks on this in
eident:
"All honor is due the brave priest of St.
Philomena's, Pittsburg. To afford sanctu
ary to a wounded and hunted man was
charitable, yet no more than natural. But
to take him in q carriage to a place OF
safety, defyiDg an infuristed and utterly
reckless mob, and bearing the victim
through their midst in triumph and safety
was the deed of hero. The priest could
not have known that even his sacred char
acter would protect him from such Great
ures. Yet he stood up in that carriage anG
faced them all. There's q subject for the
artists of our illustrated papers And THU
is by no means the only deed of this char
acter that decorAtes the annals of tht
Church of Rome. The only one Why
for centuries alone that Church stood be
tween the oppressors and the oppressed
Throughout the Middle Ages it was th
one refuge of the wretched who found sane
tuary only at it's sltars."

Railroad Expenses that Might be Cut Down.
(Troy Times.)

(Troy Times)
A brakeman talks good sense when he
says that railroad managers can cut down
some of their expensive ways with great
benefit to the stockholders, as we'll as by
cutting down the wages of the men. He
instances ou one eXtravaGance-special
trains and special cars for themselves and
families to ride in. Wagner and Pullman
cars are not good enough for some of these
magnates-they must have their sumptu
ous and luxurious palaces on wheels, and
must be run by special engines, and every
thing and every body must get out of the
way for them. He says:
Mr.. thiHks no more of ordering
locomotive ,0OI hooked TO car OO2 'han
DE does of ordering his cOachnan To hAr
ness his bay mare to his road wagon for q
drive. Last winter he used to roll from
Philadelphia t" New York in this grand
style tu attend the opera, whenever the
performance promised TO be sufficiently at
tractive for his elegant taste, aud then he
would steam back after it was over. 1t costs
about $3.50 to make the run, and five or
ak specials a month knock the bottom out
of another 81, 900. Now $4,000 a month
for private cars and specials is rather pre-
cipitous. 1t is 10 per cent. of $40 900, or
the pay of 400 men at $50 per mouth. Aud
this amounts to saying that the 10 per cent.
saved by reducing the wages of 400 men on
this division, never gets as far ss the stock
holders, but is charged up in couple OF
items to the " vanity and ease" account.

HONE AFTER BUSINESS HoURs.-The road
along which the man of business travels in
the pursuance of competence or wealth is
not mAcadamized oDe, nor does it ordina-
rily lead through pleasant scenes and by
we'll springs of delight. On the contrary,
it is a rough and rugged path, beset with
"wait- a bit' thorns, and full of pitfalls,
which can only be avoided by the watchful
care of circumspection. After every days
journey over this worse than rough turn
pike road, the wayfarer needs something
more than rest he requires solace and he
deserves it. He is weary of the dull prose
of life, and athirst for the poetry. Happy
is the business man who can find that
solsce, that poetry at home.
Warm greetings from loving hearts, fond
glances from bright eyes, and welcome
shouts of children, the many thousand
little arrangements for comfort and enjoy
ment that silently tell of thoughtful aud
expectant love, the gentle ministrations
that disencumber US into an old aud easy
seat before we are aware of it these aud
like tokens of affection aud sympathy con
stitute the poetry which reconciles us to
the prose of life. Think of this We wives
and daughters of business men Think OF
the tolls, the auxieties, the modification
aud wear that fathers undergo to secure
for you comfortable homes, aud compensate
them for their trials by making them happy
by their own freplacea.
