A Whole Crew Murdered.

A vessel commanded by Capt. Ridout
WIS lost on the French shore of New
foundland in 1874. A St. Johns paper
says q person from Boune Bay relates
the following: The Captain had 81 900
on his person at the time the craft went
ashore near hut occupied by an old
hunter known as "Jacks." All of the
crew got ashore and built a tent. A
certain person, with members of his
family, understood to be hunters, wreck
ers, etc., visited the tent and offered to
pilot the crew to the channel. The of
fer was accepted, and while the party
were crossing pond the members of
the crew were shot, three falling at the
first volley. The murderers cut q hole
in the ice and put the bodies down, af-
ter robbing them. Jacks, aware of the
circumstance, was bought over, but, be-
coming sick, confessed. The informant
also states that Nova Scotian craft
fishing there found the remains of the
Captain fearfully mangled under a rock
on the shore. The people are confident
that the crew were all murdered by the
same gang. Many other vessels and
crews he believes have met the same
fate. He further states that the people
at Port Buport do little else than plum
der, and in his opinion they would not
hesitate to use lights to decoy vessels on
shore. The matter has been placed in
the hauds of the Chief of Police of St.
Johns to investigate. 1t is said the Of
ficers of Her Majesty's steamer Eclipse,
now visiting the shore, will be directed
to seek information relative to the
crimes.

To buy pins cheap they must be bought

made thin and long to make them large,
and also to meet the keenness of compe-

A Heroic Physician.

DR.. Louis Carriere, an eminent Paris
physician, has died from the conse-
quence of sucking the windpipe of pa
tent, little girl who was suffering
from Group. DR.. Carriere is not the
first medical practitioner in France who
has fallen victim to his zeal for hu-
mainly. Two or three weeks ago DIR.
Cintrat, who had done an equally bold
deed, likewise sacrificed himself to his
sense of duty. One important scientific
fact has been demonstrated by DIR. Car
riere's noble though fatal experiment
that the discharge from the mucous
membrane is an active poison-but,
apart from that, his melancholy fate will
present many features of the deepest in
terest to the non-professional public in
England. The devotion of the brave
physician must, in the first instance, COM
mand universal feeling Of admiration.
The operation of sucking the little girls
windpipe was the reverse of "nice;;"
yet the ostensibly repulsive process was
in reality manifestation in its highest,
in almost its sublimest form, of the Sc
ductive philosophy, Of the pursuit of
that goal which was Bacon's early, late,
and only end-fruit. The governing
idea and conviction of DR.. Carriere was
evidently that the suffocation of Group
might be combated by the mechani-
cal means of powerful suction
from the larynx outward. Science
has invented the stomach-pump;
but scientific ingenuity has not yet per-
fected an apparatus for freeing the
capillary tubes from coagulated mucus.
For the reason that these tubes can not
be cleared, children and old men choke.
cit is as natural, i" says Jeremy Taylor,
"to die as to be born; and to little
child perhaps the one-is as easy as the
other.'' But Group and bronchitis are
not easy modes of death. They entail
horrible agony. They are strangulation.
There is reason to believe-leaving aside
the consideration of aged people with
incurably shattered constitutions that
the lives of many thousands of young
children might be saved every year by
the invention of some simple mechan-
ical means for clearing the bronchial
tubes, without incision Of the windpipe,
and it may be that the martyrdom of
DIR. Carriere may lead to such means
being discovered. It is the bleod of
martyrs like Carriere and Cintrat that
makes the seed of knowledge,

The Electric Candle.

1t has remained for another Russian
man of science-M. Paul Jablochkoff,
who was formerly in the Russian mill
tary service-to demonstrate in practice
the feasibility of subdividing the electric
current. He has worked out his results
in the form of an electric candle, which
governs the production of the electric
light and supersedes tho ordinary clock
work arrangement. By it he has,more-
over, demonstrated the possibility of OBJ
tanning several lights from a single
source of electricity.
The first practical trial of this system
was made fortnight ago at the Maya
sins du Louvre, and the experiments
were attended with perfect success. The
Marengo Hall was the apartment light
ed, and six electric candles were suffi-
Gent to shed around avery bright light,
which was softened by being transmit
ted through opal glass globes. Some
idea of the comparative value of gas and
the electric light under notice may be
formed when we state that the Marengo
Hall is ordinarily illuminated by means
of 400 argand gas-burners of the largest
size.
The electric candle, as originally de-
signed by M. Jablochkoff, consisted of
what may be termed double wick and
surrounding material. The wick con-
sisted of two carbon points, about four
inches long, imbedded parallel to each
other in insulating substance, by which,
also, they were separated from
each other. The material, which
was consumed as well as
the double wick, was composed of sew
eral ingredients, forming a combination
known only to the inventor. Each of
the carbon points terminated at the bot
tom of small metal tube into which
the conducting wires wereled. Withthese
candles a series of experiments was
some time since carried out by a war Office
committee ofSroyal engineers at Chat
ham. 1t was then demonstrated rs one
result that the system gave one per cent
um greater power of light than had ever
before been obtained from any electric
light.
The next development of the electric
candle by Jablochkoff was to denude it
of its outer casing, leaving merely the
double wick with strip of the insulat-
ing compound betweenthe carbon points,
which terminated at the bottom in me-
tallic tubes, as before. 1t twas with the
electric candle in this form that the hall
at the Magasins du Louvre was illus
trated, as previously stated. In either
case only one electrical machine is need
ed to produce a number of lights: The
positive and negative wires are led from
the machine, and branch wires are
simply conducted from them at the
necessary points to the candles. In
this way NJ. Jablochkoff succeeded in
getting as many as eight candles to burn
at a circuit of a single machine of the
ordinary kind, with alternating cur
rents.-LOndOa Times.

scopic stars takes s, 100 years to reach
the earth; from others 5O0, 900 years.
These stars, therefore, may have be-
come extinct thousands of years ago,
though.their light comes to our eyes.
Alpha Lyra is 100, 900, 000, 600 Of miles
from us, and its magnitude and splen.
dor are as 20 to compared with our
sun. The sun is neither greater nor
smaller than most of the stars. =
ABOUT 400 years ago the art of print
ing was introduced into England by
William Caxton. There is some dis
pute regarding the precise date, but
Mr.. William Blades, Cations biogra-
pher, inclines to the belief that Caxton ar
rived in England in l476. At all events
the first indisputable date is that of the
g Dictes and Sayings of the Philoso-
piers, enprynted by me, William Cax-
ton, at Westmestre, the yere of our
Lord, mcccclxxvij.'' The present
year has therefore been adopted for the
celebration of the 4OOth anniversary of
the introduction of the art of printing
into England, and next month there
will be held at South Kensington an ex-
hibition of antiquities and curiosities
connected with the art in its early days.
The proceeds of the exhibition are to be
added to an existing fund for the erec-
ton of q monument to Caxton. Among
the American members of the General
Committee are j. C. BrevoOrt and G..
H. Moore of New York, Stephen Sails
bury of Worcester, Mass, and G. w.
Childs of Philadelphia.
VARIOUS have been the ways of set
Ting hotel bills-by cash down, which
is considered the best; by going away,
leaving behing trunk full of
bricks; by departing and leaving no
trunk at all; but Mr.. Emanuel Gibson,
described as q person of military bear
ing" adopted new method last week
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, in New York.
For several days he occupied pleasant
apartments, and devoted himself to or
dering up champagne, brandy, and CT
gars, and consuming the same. Atlast,
as Mr.. Gibson's baggage was not of the
heavy description, the careful clerk sent
him up his bill and begged him to call
at the Office and discharge the amount.
1t was then that Mr.. Gibson assumed a
military bearing indeed, for, facing the
astonished accountant, he waved at him
a revolver, and cried: "That is the way
1 settle my bills" Well, it was nov
city at designating every thing square
by shooting the clerk; but the large
porter of the house came to the rescue,
disarmed the violent guest, and sent for
a policeman. Consequently, Mr.. Eman-
uel Gibson is now accommodated in a
public house where he will hardly get
champagne either for love or for money.

Making q Home Of the Farm.

The farm as home will have its gar
den and its orchard, for beauty as well
as profit; will have poultry and animals
which possess other than a money value.
The eye of the owner will be seeking
vistas through the groves and forests,
through which sun and shade may play.
If he clears away the ancient trees, he
will spare q cOpse here and thicket
there, for his very cattle will thank him
for their shelter, and no passer-by will
fail to admire the taste and fOrethOught
which, with the meadow or the plowed
field, retains the glories of maple, or
birch, or elm, or gnarled beech.
Such things are coming even among
us to have value even in dollars and
cents. With better roads, which are the
crying need of our rural districts, a
drive Of four or five miles, or twice as
much, is not always an evil. The purer
air, the rcstful quiet, the retirement for
study, counterbalance some of the con-
veniences of the village. The home
stead with acres for a lawn, decorated
with the stream which grows and
changes with the seasons; with groves
that are rich in original treasures of the
forest; with something new always in
the fields ripening for the harvest, and
in the orchard as responsive to the sea-
sons fashions as any Fifth Avenue belle !;
with poultry and sheep and cattle and
horses that welcome you, and are CRATE
full for your care-muSt be some
thing more than shop or factory.
Because Americans have too much land,
they have not learned yet, as the En-
glish in their restricted islands have
done, to count their trees and inventory
their watercOurses, and make much of
every hill and valley, every phase and
variety of scenery. Instead of degrad-
ing the farm more into treadmill of
compulsory labor, we need more and
more to decorate it with the attractions
of home, to connect it with pleasures
and culture, to bring out the best fea-
lures of its landscape, the special beau
ties of gorge or hill or grove or meadow
with which nature has adorned it. The
most careless observers learn how ven-
cradle, graceful or sturdy trees designate
an entire district; how q well cultivated
garden wins admiration; how the very
soil and air may tell that a farm has a
man of taste and brains for its master.
He has made home there; he has treat
ed the acres in a kindly, generous way.
He has not gone at his farm as if it were a
slave, to be abused and stinted, with the
one purpose Of giving it the least posi-
BILE, while extorting the most from it.
Even as question of profit, the wise
rule is to care for the farm as home

JUAN SALAzAR, Spaniard, and Hen
~ Sanders, q negro, had discussion in
San Jose, CAL, as to whether there was
any difference in the blood of whites and
negroes. They agreed to decide the
question by examination, and with .
razor they slightly gashed their arms,
thus getting the two kinds of blood to
look at. So far they were amiable; but,
when Salazar said that he could plainly
see difference, Sanders got angry and
made fatal attack on him with the
razor.
