Hanging a Boy.
From the Rochester Sentinel. ]

fEOU Tue tOCntstcr SENTINEL
We learn from Mr.. John Young,
that few days since in the vicinity
OF New Carlisle, three boys who were
attending school, placed a rope
around the neck OF a schoolmate,
threw it over limb. drew the boy up
so that his feet were short distance
from the ground, piled leaves under
him, and set them on fire, burning
him until his feet were blistered. This
was done through sheer wickedness;
without any provocation whatever
The father OF one OF the boys we are
informed punished his boy severely,
and the fathers OF the other two re-
fused to punish their fiendish sons
for so cruel an act. These fathers
deserve the most condign punish
ment which the law can inflict for
thus encouraging by their acts, the
inhuman conduct of their sons, and
the time may come when in the
States prison, or on the gallows,
these boys will expatiate for some
greater crime, which might have been
prevented, il their fathers had done
their duty.

Making Butter In Summer.
(From the Rural World )

The first thing requisite to making
good butter is to have good cows,
good pasture, good water, and salt
for the COWS twice a week. Next,
good management of the milk. The
milk should be cooled Immediately
after milking. that it may be kept
sweet longer and yield more cream.
The pals used in milking should be
Of tin, as it is impossible to cleanse
wood pals so perfectly that they will
not impart some degree of acidity to
the milk. Nothing receives a faint
more easily than milk or cream. and
all bad odors absorbed by the milk
will be retained by the butter. A cool
spring house is best to keep milk in,
or cool cellar mot too damp hav-
ing all decayed vegetables removed.
Washing the walls with lime will
greatly aid in keeping it pure. Wash
the vessels used in warm water Gin
side and OUT, then scald with boiling
water and place in the sun. The
churn, butter bowl and ladle should
be washed and scalded with equal
care. Sunshine and pure air is all
that ought to stand in the churn be-
tween churning times. The milk
should be skinned as soon as the
cream has risen. III left too long, the
surface will become watery; while
underneath. the cream is rapidly
yielding TO the corrosive acid In the
milk, and becomes thin. watery SUBJ
stance, neither cream nor milk. The
best plan then Is to give it to the pigs.
A good plan is to save the stripplings
say pint from each cow-cooling
it perfectly before putting in the
cream jar; stir well each time new is
added.
In regard to working butter, there
is a great difference OF opinion. Ex-
perience has taught US it should be
worked but once, and then gently. 1t
Is composed OF minute globules.
which are crushed by too much work
ing, making the butter greasy. We
are not in favor OF washing butter, il
1t can be avoided; use pure salt which
is perfectly white and will dissolve in
cold water, leaving no sediment. The
brine will be perfectly clear. having
no bitter taste. An ounce to q pound
Of butter Is enough. as too much salt
destroys the delicate flavor OF good
butter.

A New Way to Sober on.


A funny little incident happened
a few days ago not a thousand miles
from Rochester which we must re-
late. A widow lady who Is very
much devoted 10 the temperance
cause has son given to intemper-
ance, who semi occasionally gets ex-
ceedingly weary" for week at a
time, and on such occasions no coax
ng or threatening OF his mother will
prevent his indulging to excess. All
other efforts to keep him from the dram
shop having failed she hit upon a
new plan. One night while sleeping
off his debauchery she stole quietly
into his room and distracted every
pair OF pants therein, and when the
morning dawned he arose athirst,
but finding no covering for his pro-
polling extremities he was forced to
return to bed, which he did pleading
all the while for a return OF his
breeches, but il was In vain, they
came not until he was duly sober.

What q Woman Did.

Mr.. Burdette, the humorous man OF
the Ha,ckeve. in answer to the inquiry
OF a reporter, says that his humor was
born OF tribulation. my wife," says
he, "was an invalid, and felt it my
duty to be as lively as possible about
the house and was always making
fun for her benefit. She asked why
did not write for the paper some of
the speeches that I got off at home
and at length followed out her sug-
gestions. / owe what 1 am to the
promptings OF patient, suffering
wife, The fact that his humor was
born OF such generous impulses will
add very materially to it's apprecia-
ton.

One OF the most singular cases ever
brought before the courts has just
come up in Springfield, Mass. A man
died, leaving his property, one-third
to his wife. and one-third to his child,
and the other third to a child then
unborn. The unborn party, however,
proved to be twins, and the executor
Is sorely perplexed as to whether he
shall divide the third, giving each OF
the twins one-sixth OF the estate, or
whether he shall carry out the tesla
tors purpose to serve all the children
alike, by giving them and the widow
one-fourth; or whether again, he
shall give the widow her third and
divide the other thirds among
the three children. The case being
wholly without precedent in this
State, the court gives the executor no
ndvice, and the conundrum Is to be
in some way brought before the Pro-
bate Supreme Court.

Captfyes.
By MRS. D. N. JoRDos.

A bird with plumage of golden hue
Sang In the hedge-rows all day long,
And the traveller went with lighter heart
For the echoing joy of the happy song.
And the plowman whistled merrier tune
AS the brown earth turned from the shining shar
And thu clouds sailed low like drifting ships,
That anchor by islands green am fair
Little the singer knew OF the song
As the swift, bright hours of the summer flew,
Only the gIsdness of happy wings,
The golden sunshine cleaving through;
Only the Joy OF q sheltered nest,
With the wafchful love of a faithful mate,
And the song went mp the liyelong day,
Like the song Of the lark, 10 heavens gate.
But some one caught in a silkep snare
The careless bird with the golden wing,
And never more by the hedge-row fair
The traveller panses TO hear her sing;
But all day long, in a golden cage,
she dreams of the meadows green and free,
And mOurns for the song of her absent mate,
And the nest In the far of forest tree.
And the world is full of cages fair.
Where sweet-voiced singers forget to sing
And hearts are beating gainst prison bars,
As the restless captive beats her wing
And travellers plod ON the dusty way,
Cncheered by the songs they love so well;
And whether the tree OF the cage il hest
None but the captive bird may tell.

Among the late removals in the
Treasury is the widow OF soldier,
who was supporting herself and two
children, and trying to educate the
latter. The reason given for removal
was that her father was also In the
Treasury service, The explanation
that she did not reside with the father
and that he did not assist in her sup
port, was not deemed sufficient under
the new rule. In another case, two
sisters. both soldiers children, the
other with three, were discovered
and one removed. Each lived separ-
