A FLoGGED AND BULLIED SCHooL-BoY
WHO COMMITTED SUICIDE.-POOr little
Gibbs, the London school-boy who hanged
himself by the cord attached to the venti-
lator OF the room in the boarding school
where he was locked up TO await q logging
IN store for him because he had run away, is
still the subject of many Indignant letters
and editorial articles in the English news
papers. II will be remembered that he had
previously run away, been brought back and
hogged, and that the reason why he ran away
was, as he told his sister, the habitual bully
Ing and other maltreatment to which the
monitor had subjected him. On top of this
almost uncomfortable burden came, as the last
straw, the birch OF his teacher, and the lad a
spirit was crushed.

ST. LOUIS NEW GHosT.-A st. Louis dis
path says: The story of Lord Munster who
committed suicide at the time OF the South
ern Hotel fire, will be remembered Sepa-
rated from his wife when rescued he was
taken TO a room where many OF his friends
young mem were in the habit of meeting,
passed the remainder of the night there and
in the morning killeI himself Now comes
the ghost: IL is told that one OF the rullicking
friends OF Munster, sitting lately in the room
where Munster met his death, was startled
by the entrance OF q man. He looked up and
recognized Munster, clad as when he died
The ghost looked at him, appeared offended
that he did not speak, and passed out as
quietly as he had entered. The occupant of
the room didn't like ghosts, and didn't occu-
py that room any more than was absolutely
Dece< sary for days afterward. He drove out
great dt al though, and one day, driving
alone, was suddenly aware that the seat was
scarcely large enough for two when one
showed disposition to crowd. Terrified
he saw that Munster was sitting beside him
He drove the horses to the nearest stopping
place on q gallop, leaped ont and fore
swore driving, though the figure in the seat
had vanished. Soon afterward he was taken
very sick, bnt is now recovered. Such is the
ghost story Of the young bloods about town,
ard some of them believe IL.

menls? Last night two persons al least in our
nelgh6orhoOd were nauseated and other wise
disturbed by IL, while for weeks 1t has been

season. The hard times causes a large IN
crease in the number OF those who cannot
leave the city, and il is cruel that we should
have this added annoyance. Have not the

NEW TEST OF DEATH. The importance
OF having some readily applied aud indis-
putable test of death is apparent, and many
are the processes that have been offered to
determine 1t. Nevertheless, such q test ao-
pears to be still a desideratum-unless, in
deed, we accept that offered by Kappeler. In
course OF his researches on the electrical
summation OF dead muscles, kappeler sub
Jected twenty corpses to the action OF various
electric currents, noting the times of dis
appearance of contractility. In persons
emaciated by chronic maladies IL disap-
peared much more rapidly than in we'll
nourished Individuals, or those who had
five minutes after death at the suic kest, and
six and half hours at the slowest. In cases
where raise of temperature is observed
after death, electric contractility persists
longest. So long as there remains the least
Kicker OF life the contractions remain intact.
In the most prolonged faints. in the deepest
lethargies, in poisoning by carbOnic oxide,
chloroform, etc, there Is no contraction as
long as life lasts. But If the muscles make
no response TO the electrical slim ulation,
kappelar prOnOunces life to be extinct,
