The HATcHING HEN THE MoTHER.-An
important question has been settled by a
West Stratford justice. A resident owned
hen of fancy breed that strayed upon
neighbor's premises and laid a nest full of
eggs. Another hen, belonging to the
owner of the land, took possession of the
nest and hatched the eggs. Then the two
nelghbors got into wrangle about the
chickens. They were sold by No. 2 to
third party, whereupon No. l got out a
writ of replevin, and the case was tried a
few duys ago with able counsel and many
witnesses. The court decided that the hen
that hatched the eggs the legal mother.

PLAYING WITH FIRE.-Dr John Hall
holds that the same characteristics which
make it specially dangerous to play with
hre, are i'll adapted for vehement political
excitements and trade associations, es.
pecialliy of the secret kind. Here and
there one can point to men who have risen
by political effort; but in how MANY in.
stances is the elevation slow, and the fall
rapid How many have bou ght the gold
100 dear-at the cost of wrecked homes,
aissipated habits, and degrading compan.
lonship! How they toiled and got nothing
One sees the success; the failures are buried.
" What is hit is history: what is missed is
mystery" Cool, unimpassond, unimagina.
tive men may be wire. e.pullers, and "make
1t pay.' The man of mere generous tenn.
permanent does best for himself in politics
in the end, who gives his vote as he deems
right, for the rest, minds his own business.

London, January 12-The agitation here
grows greater every hour. The utter help
lessness of the cause of the Turk was yester-
day for the first time fully comprohended by
the English people. Deluded by false repre-
sensations, and madly fond of Turkey, the
great mass of the British people have hoped
that Providence would step in to save their
Old ally. Cold weather has killed more Turks
than Russians, and the Ca5socks, under the
dashing Gourke, are rushing savagely through
Roumelia seeking, almost in vain, for Tur-
kish General or commander through whom
an armistice might be arranged.

RAILROAD RATES. Says the Silver State of
Friday: According to the schedule of freight
rates of the Central Pacific Railroad Com
pany, now in force, the maximum rate per car
load from San Francisco here-419 miles-ls
s791, minimum rate 1882, Local passenger
rates are about 4 cents per mile. Exorbitant
as these rates are, they are less than the COM
pany is allowed to charge, as the Act of Con
gress creating the corporation empowered it
to charge passengers ten cents per mile, and
freight twenty cents per ton per mlle yet pol
itical blowhards will tell us about election
time that the party which created the Rail
road Company, furnished it Government
bonds to build the road, and authorized it to
charge such rates, is opposed to monopolies,
and strange as it may appear, many are foolish
enough to believe them.

| CRAzY.-The Reno Journal of Yesterday
morning has the following: Last Tuesday a
painter named Bliss went to work in the C.
p Il. r. shops, having been sent from Sac
ramento to take position there He worked
half a day, and then failed to put in an ap-
pearance. The Master Mechanic. Gregg,
made all possible inquiry for him, but only
brought to light the fact that he had not been
to bed, but that his kit of tools and most of
his clothing had been left just as if nothing
had happened. He had not left on any of the
trains, and vague rumors Of foul play began
to circulate. Search was made in every i'm
aginable place for the missing man, the river
receiving especial attention at the hands of
searchers, bat no clue could they discover of
the missing. This condition of Affairs existed
until Thursday evening, when Conductor
Seymour, of No. G., brought the poor fellow
to Wadsworth on his train He found him
near Browns Station, making his way on foot
to Texas. His mind has been affected from
some cause and the poor fellow was crazy. He
was taken to Sacramento Thursday night
where he will receive proper treatment.

and fell from his horse, cutting his head and
face severely and badly straining his leg He
has been unwell forsometime, and his sudden

It is related of Compton, the English come

where meeting of clergymen had just been
ended, and the preachers were about to dine

said he was sure the Dean would be pleased
to have the visitor dine with them ~ thank

The Dean not only invited Compton to dine,
but seated him at his right, and, through
courtesy, asked him to say grace. Compton
felt cold chill run through him, but, with
perfect presence of mind, he recalled the OPP
ening part of the church service, and solemn
ly said; ooh Lord, open thou onr lips, and
our mouths shall show forth thy praise.
