The Goodrich IINE.-Now that navi-
cation has finally opened the steamersChi
cago and Sheboygan are making daily
trips between Chicago and Two Rivers,
stopping at all intermediate points.
Both of these boats received repairs at
Manitowoc the past winter, and also
new coat of paint, making them as
staunch and beautiful as ever. And
with such trustworthy and jolly men as
Captain Sweeny, of the Chicago, and
Captain Mcintosh, of the Sheboygali, as
commanders, you may be assured of
pleasant trip. The cabins of these boats
have been thoroughly cleaned and paint
ed, under the personal supervision of
Mr.. John E. Lee, Steward of the Chico
go, making them compare quite favor
ably with some of the parlors of our
most prominent mansions. We also no.
tice Mr.. Thompson, the efficient clerk
of the Sheboygan, at his post and ready
to please. The line is deservedly popu
lar. From the first start Capt. Good
rich has sought TO improve the line and
has done so year by year, until it is now
recognized as one of the best managed
on the lakes.

A LADY in Menasha took her little
child to a photograph gallery to have
its picture taken. She had washed its
face before they left home but conclu-
ded to give it another wash there.
The photographer was out of the room,
but on being informed of her wishes,
called her to stepinto the dressing room.
She made a mistake, and got into his
operating room, and washed the child's
face with bath of nitrate silver In a
few minutes his face WAS black as night.
The operator applied cyanide of potas-
stun, and reduced the color to a rich
olive. But it will be some time before
the child will be white.

A CURIOUS PROPHECY.

Just before the defeat of Mr.. Greedy
for the Presidency, several gentleman
were congregated on piazza at New
port. Among them was Chief Justice
Chase. Another was one of the first
conversationalists in the world. The
latter repeated. not an anecdote but a
prophecy which had been made by her
NIT in Bavaria many years before; and
this prophecy was not only delivered but
printed by number of the Allgemaeine
Zeitstsag of about 1857. The Austro-
Prussian war was correctly predicted, as
well as the Franco Prussian war and the
taking of Paris. Now for the future.
In 1867 the Pope Is to die which will
cause a general European war. Next.
France and Prussia are to have another
conflict. France will be defeated and
Paris taken for the second time. There
will be a partition of France. The
Iberian powers Spain and Portugal
are to have large share, as also Italy.
Belgium gets the northern part. Hol-
land is ceded to Prussia. All that will
remain of Franco will be the old Gle de
France" of which Paris is the capital.
These results being obtained, there will
be a general acknowledgement of the
folly and futility of excessive arma-
ments. All the powers will agree to dis
arm. Swords will be beaten into plow-
shares.
The hermit's prophecies for 1866 and
1870 were fulfilled. 1t seems as though
the rest might be. The Pope is in bad
health. The chances of q general wer
growing out of the Eastern question ex-
cellent. Should France think the mo-
ment favorable to attack Prussia, and be
defeated, the conqueror would show no
mercy. France would be rendered harm
less, and her territory divided. The
partition of Republican France is the
dream of the Prussian s'Junker party"
The general reduction of armies is less
probable. It is easier to change the
map of Europe than human nature

RUSSIA has built ironclads for use on

has kept the matter secret.

GEN. SHERMAN thinks that the war
between Russia and Turkey is likely to
be potracted and very destructive. He
is also represented as saying that Ameri-
can army officers would profit by staff
duty in both contending armies, and
that probably limited number could
obtain leave of absence for such duty.
But how could our officers intelligently
perform or be benefited by such service
without understanding the languages Of
the commanding officers of the two OPP
posing armies and how many of them
in a hundred, if any. AS observers
simply, they might pick up many valu-
able ideas.

THE DIFFERENCE.-Awo woman will take
the smallest drawer in bureau for her
own private use, >and will pack away in
it bright bits of boxes, of all shades
and sizes, dainty fragments of ribbon,
and scraps of lace, foamy ruffies, velvet
things for the neck, bundles of old love
letters, pieces of Jewelry handkerchiefs,
fans, things that no man knows the
names of, all sorts of fresh-looking,
bright little traps that you couldn't cata-
logue in column, and any hour in the
day or night she can go to that drawer
ana pick up any article she wants with
out disturbing anything else. Where
as man, having the biggest, deepest,
and widest drawer assigned to him, will
chuck into it three socks, collar-box,
an old necktie, two handkerchiefs, a
pipe, and pair of suspenders, and to
save his soul he can't shut that drawer
without leaving more ends of things
sticking out than there are things in
it, and it always looks as though it had
been packed by hydraulic press.

We find the following in the Green
Bay advocate:
On Sunday the 18th of April, in the
town of Maple Grove, in Manitowoc
county, it is reported a singular and IA
tai occurrence took place and happened
in this wise: It being Sunday, the peo-
pie of the neighborhood had generally
gone to church, leaving, as is the custom
only one OF two of a family at home
to guard the house and premises. The
names of the parties to the tragedy were
not given to us, but at the particular
house where it occurred, only boy of
about 10 years of age was at home.
Sometime during the absence of the
family, a man came to the house COM
pletely enveloped in beef hide, with
horns, tail and all complete and 80 fitted
that nothing else could be seen. It was
known in the neighborhood that
the occupants Of this house
had money, and there was there
at the time about two hundred dollars.
The object disguised in the hide told the
boy that he was the devil, and that he
had come after his money, and he must
give it to him. The boy answered that
he could not have the money. The
devil then told the boy that he would
have him and kill him if he did not
bring out the money. The boy then
stepped into the house as if he was about
to comply, but instead Of bringing the
money he brought gun and shot the
man dead in his tracks. The boy then
ran to the nearest neighbor, and, finding
only a woman there, told her he had
shot the devil at his house. The woman
went with the boy, and found that the
devil whom the boy shot was her hus-
band. Whether she had any knowledge
or not of her husband being out on
such en- expedition and YVES privy to it,
was not known. This item came to us
from reliable source, and we give it as
was told, having no reason to doubt its
truth.-R0cisae Journal

HOW TO EXPLODE A LAMP.

The Scientific American gives some of
the circumstances which lead to the ex-
plosion of kerosene lamps, the philoso-
ply Of ell of them being that the flame
may pass down the wick and ignite the
vapor which accommodates in the upper
part of the lamp. This vapor is not an
explosive as the term is ordinarily under
stood but, when it is confined so that
the gases resulting from the combustion
cannot escape freely into the open air
the vessle combining it will be shattered.
This ignition Of vapor may be brought
about as follows
1. A lamp may be standing on table
OF mantle, and slight puff of air from
an open window may cause an explo-
sion.
2. A lamp may be taken up quickly
from table OF mantle and instantly ex-
ploded.
3. A lamp may be taken out into an
entry where there is draft or out doors
and an explosion ensues.
4. A lighted lamp is taken up fight
of stairs or is raised quickly to its place
Oh the mantle resulting in an explosion.
In these cases the mischief is done by
the air movement-either by suddenly
checking the draft, or forcing the air
down the chimney against the flame.
5. Blowing down the chimney to ex-
tinguish the light is frequent cause of
explosion.
6. Lamp explosions lave been caused
by using a chimney broken off at the
top, or one that has piece broken
out whereby the draft is varible and the
fame unsteady.
Z. Sometimes thoughtless persons put
small wick into large burner, thus
leaving considerable space along the
edges of the wick. An old burner with
its air draft clogged up, which rightfully
| should be thrown away, is sometimes
continued in use, and the final result is
an explosion.
The question how to avoid explosions
is nov in order, and one good precau-
ton to take is to keep the lamp as nearly
full as possible to prevent much gas col
| Letting, for want of room.
