A Berlin Scandal.

What is likely to prove highly scan
dalous and entertaining cause celebre
will soon be brought to trial in this city.
Nine. S. has succeeded in swindling-
that is, she is accused of having done so
"a goodly number of officers in the
army and scions of nobility in a note
worthy way. She announced through
the public press that she could bring
about marriages between such people
and wealthy ladies who could bring
their husbands dowries of from $4,000
to 100000. Her announcements, as
may readily be believed, did not remain
unanswered by sons of the first families
and cavaliers of rank and position. The
shrewd old lady-she is old enough to
be grandmother-brought about meet
ings between the money-seeking lovers
and some pretty women who would
come to take Elm TGSSchen Kafee with
her, whereupon the officers would drop
in and be introduced to them, the an
cient lady telling the lovers, SUB rosa,
which one was worth her 100000 or
S150,O00, and which was the great
100000 prize. Naturally the gentle
men wished at once to come to bust
ness, nor was Nine. S. a whit behind
them in anxiety. The would-be hus-
bands gave her money in advance to Sc
cure her services, and also bonds, or evil
dences of debt, contingent on the sue
cess Of her maneuvers, but unsigned. To
these latter she forged the names of the
distinguished men who had written
them, and thus raised considerable sums
of money, when suddenly her tricks
were discovered, and some of the men,
even for their own "honOr's sake
would not keep silent. She has been in
dicted, and when the case comes up for
trial, all Berlin expects to see some very
pretty revelations. Doubtless all Berlin
will not be disappointed.-COrresp Ood-
ence NeU York World.

Brigandage in Sicily.

The evils so much talked of in Sicily
may be summed up in the statement that
law, as we understand it, is an inter-
loper in the island. The recognized
authority, which is supported by the
moral sentiment of the population, and
which it is disreputable, as well as dan
gerous, to defy, is private violence, or
those associations which have private
violence as their ultima ratio. One or
two examples will make this clear. In
a commune where the law was begin
ming to get the upper hand, the head Of
the police was one day surrounded in
the principal street, at the hour when it
was most frequented, by gang of ruff
fans who shot him dead. Not one of the
passers-by saw or heard any thing.
Elsewhere, brigand killed landed
proprietor whom he suspected of giving
information against him to the authori-
ties. Not satisfied with this, he went to
the village where the mother and sister
of the murdered man lived, entered the
house, shot the mother, dragged the sis
ter down stairs into the street, and fin
ished her with a knife. The
police-office was close by, and
the village filed with country peo-
pie returning from their work. The
assassin went away unmolested. In
another place, which was occupied at
the time by troops, a brigand mortally
wounded man who was universally be-
loved, While the bells were tolling and
the priest carrying the viaticum to the
dying man, while his door was throng-
ed with a.crowd of weeping friends, the
murderer stood leaning with folded
arms against wall on the other side of
the road, and no one ventured to ap-
proach him. The day after the police
were informed that he had been in the
village. These instances could be null
tiplied without end. The noteworthy
point about them is not so much the
atrocity of the crime as that the whole
population, eveh those who disapprove
of it, are accessories either before or af-
ter the fact. The notion that there is a
law of justice other than the will and
power of the strong, or any power by
which that law can be enforced, seems
not to have entered the Sicilian mind

Another Dog Story.

In the family of Mr. Calvin Parsons,
of Parsons, just above this city, large
and very amiable Newfoundland dog
had long been the pet of several little
children in the same family. On Mon
day the children had been playing with
the good-natured creature until both
they and he had become thoroughly
tired out, when, as was their custom,
one of the little ones took the dog to his
kennel and fastened him there by his
chain. 1t was but moment or two
after the dog had been tied up that Mrs.
Parsons's attention was called to the
animal by his very singular actions,
whereupon she watched him for a time,
and became satisfied that something
very unusual was the matter with him.
Fearing hydrophobia, she went at once
to the store near by and desired Mr.. E..
G.. Cole to come to the house and look
at the dog, which he at once did. He
found him acting still more strangely,
frothing at the mouth, and exhibiting
every known symptom of rabies. His
first intention was to shoot him, and for
that purpose he went into the house and
procured a pistol, but while doing so an
old recipe for testing, as well as thor
oughly curing rabies in the dog, came
up in his memory, and he decided to
try it before using the more radical cure
of cold lead Procuring large pail of
cold water, as per recipe, he pushed it
within reach of the dog by means OF a
long pole, whereupon the animal made
several dashes toward it, and finally
pumped his fore feet into the water,
dashing the liquid all over his head.
No sooner had the water touched the
head of the creature than he fell dead
beside the pail. This is an actual fact,
as any may easily learn by consulting
any of the parties mentioned in this
tenn. Scranton pa Republican.

cupful of powdered white sugar, and
beat for minutes; add slowly teacup-
full of flour, beating all the while; CRATE
half a lemon into it, and bake in scol-
loped tins.
GINGER SNAPs.-Put ? cupfuls mo-
lasses and 1 of butter in a tin pan; boil
5 minutes, then let il cool; dissolve 2
teaspoonfuls soda in little warm water,
and pour into the molasses and butter
2 teaspoonfuls ginger, of cinnamon,
flour enough to roll without sticking;
roll very thin.
VINEGAR-Savet the parings and cores
of apples, put them in jar with warm
water enough to more than cover them,
set them in warm place for several
days, then strain and add pint of mo-
lasses to a gallon of the water; put in a
jar, tie thin cloth over it, keep in a
warm place, and in two weeks you will
have good vinegar.
PUMPKIN BUTTER.-Take out the
seeds of l pumpkin, cut it. in small
pieces and boil it soft. Take 3 other
pumpkins, cut them in small pieces, and
boil them soft; put them in a coarse bag,
and press out the juice; add the juice to
the first pumpkin, and let it boil 10
hours or more; stir often. If the
pumpkins are frozen the juice will come
out much better. 1t will keep best in a
wooden box or key.

and our poor relations of the animal
world that our inaccessible inward parts
may be supplemented by theirs. A COM
parative anatomist knows that sleeps
heart and lungs or eye must not be con-
founded with those of man; but SO
far as the comprehension of the elemen-
tary facts of the physiology of circula-
ton and respiration and of vision goes,
the one furnishes the neeGful anatomi-
cal data as well as the other.
Thus it is quite possible to give in
struction in elementary physiology in
such a manner as not only to confer
knowledge, which, for the reason / have
mentioned, is useful in itself, but to
serve the purposes of training in ac
curate observation, and in the methods
of reasoning of physical science. But
that is an advantage which mention
only incidentally, as the present confer
ence does not deal with education in the
ordinary sense of the word.
1t will not be suspected that l wish to
make Psychologists of all the world. 1t
would be as reasonable to accuse an ad-
vocate of the three R's'' of a desire to
make an orator, an author, and math-
ematician of every body. A stumbling
reader, a pot-hook writer, and an arith-
metician who has not got beyond the
rule of three, is not person of brilliant
requirements; but the difference be-
tween such member of society and one
who can not either read, write, or cy-
pher is almost inexpressible; and no one
nowadays doubts the value of instruc-
ton, even if it goes no further.
The saying that little knowledge is
dangerous thing is, to my mind, very
dangerous adage. If knowledge is real
and genuine, l do not believe that it is
other than a very valuable posses
sion, however ininitesimal its quantity
may be- Indeed, if little knowledge
is dangerous, where is the man who is
out of danger?
If William Harvey's lifelong labors
had revealed to him tenth part of hat
may be made sound and real knowl-
edge to our boys and girls, he would
not only have been what he was, the
greatest Psychologist of his age, but he
would have doomed upon the seven
teenth century as a sort of intellectual
portent. Our little knowledge would
have been to him great, astounding,
vision of scientific truth
really see no harm which can come
of giving our children little knowledge
of physiology. But then, as have said,
the instruction must be real, based upon
observation, eked out by good explana-
tory diagrams and models, and convey
ed by teacher whose knowledge has
been acquired by study of the facts, and
not the mere catechismal parrot-work |
which too often usurps the place of ele-
teaching.

A Gold Mine Joke i'm Maine.

/ One of our correspondents writes that
the recent discovery of gold" came
about somewhat in this way: The town
authorities having contracted with one
of the citizens to build town cistern for
fire-department purposes ON the island
occupied by large number of French
families, it occurred to one of the ways
in town to have little fun and see how
much of a stirring up he could give the
inhabitants upon the island. Accord
ingly he got few pieces of real gold
bearing quartz from returned Califor-
Man, and, taking the builder of the els
tern into his confidence, deposited them
during the night in one of the seams
made by blasting in the ledge where the
cistern was to be, several feet below the
surface of the soil. The next day he
was carelsssly upon the spot in good
season in the morning, and the two
made a wonderful discovery-no less
than the finding of real gold! A few
bits were taken into the shop of one of
the jewellers, and the workman, on melt
ing it, pronounced it the real article and
no mistake. The news spread like wild
fire, and as other small pieces were
found during the day, the price of real
estate began to 60 up rapidly long be-
fore sunset.
A third man, eager to help on the
fun, was very earnest in offering $4,000
for a small building lot near at hand,
but the owner would not sell it short of
$4,000. So far all went well. Then a
piece was sent to Bangor, and found to
be just as represented, and the CORE
spondent of the Commercial, not let into
the secret, however, had glowing ac-
count of the discovery in the columns of
that paper.
As soon as the facts of finding be-
came generally known certain legal
gentleman, who is always ready to help
on joke, offered, with the aid of an
enterprising merchant of the town, to
get up stock company, work the mine,
and Danish hard times by bringing
wealth at half its cost out of the bowels
of the earth in quantities to suit, and
they too would take $4,000 in stock.
Visions of vast fortunes fitted before the
eyes of the lookers-on, but no one, how
ever, could be found who was willing to
risk much real money on the present
showing, and as the thing had gone
about far enough the result aimed at
had been accomplished, and the news
had got into all the State papers and in
to some out of the State, the projectors
slyly let out the secret little by little,
and to-day it is said not a man can be
found in all Oldtown who ever believed
there was any gold found on the island
at all.-BGngOr Wing.

Not so Paris gown and bonnet!
