AN ILLINOIS CENTENNIAL.
New York Sun.l

The proposal that Illinois should CEN
tennially celebrate, on the next Fourth
of July, her private deliverance from
British thralldom, at first sounds like a
Western joke. But the proposal is
serious, and rests on basis of history.
Kaskaskia, the oldest settlement in what
is now Illinois, was, at the outbreak of
the Revolution, occupied as an outpost
by British garrison, which was with
drawn to Detroit on the American
invasion of Canada in 1775. A small
defensive force, however, was still left
there, under the command of Rocheblanc,
Frenchman. On the 4th of January,
177S, Colonel George Rogers Clark of
Virginia, on the recommendation of
Jefferson, Mason, and Wythe, pushed
out into the extreme West with four
companies of Virginia troops, and on
the 4th of July reached and captured
Kaskaskia. Thence he moved to Vim
cennes, and there prepared for another
campaign, but was driven out by an ad.
vance Of the British from Detroit under
Lieutenant Governor Hamilton. The
latter announced his purpose of recover
ing the Illinois region, but Colonel CLARK
again marched against him from Kas
kaskia, and recovered Vincennes in the
following February. Governor Jefer
son sent re-enforcements from Virgins
and North Carolina, and Illinois re
mained in American possession.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1878-04-11
VIOLENT RETRIBUTIoN.


Observant men will be struck with the
fact that violent retribution keeps fair
proportion to violent crime. Where
arson, rape and other brutal crimes are
common, Judge Lynch is supreme. OF
this fact there are manifold illustrations.
In the West horse -thieving is common,
and in Judge Lynch's court the penalty is
hanging. In West Virginia the other
day a man arrested for brutal and re-
pulsive murder was brutally and re-
pulsively hung. In the South sensual
and passionate crimes are punished by
passionate and sensual punishments, ir-
respective of the legal procedure.
Philosophical men will reason on this
question to this effect: Whether the
opinion that sustains lynching does not
also engender the crimes which arouse
this fierce retribution? In our cooler
and more orderly northern latitudes
there is a terrible precision and deliber-
alton about legal executions that in
fnitely transcends any Lynch process.
If the aim of Lynch law is to appall men,
it utterly pales before the deliberation
and sang troid of legal proceeding. A
brutal man, of true animal instincts, suf-
fers less in passionate revenge than in
a prolonged legal process. Almost any
man would prefer to be shot in the heat
of battle to being cut to death with the
nonchalance of the clinic professor. To
the acute imagination nothing is more
horrible than the inexorable, unimpas-
stoned course of the law. Against all
the tumult and anguish of the human
soul there stands the grand impartiality
of the court, the jury and the law. For
man of wild impulse to confront the
cool, machine-like weaving of the law
about him; for a sensuous, impulsive
felon to be calmly treated by jailer and
sheriff; for the hot-blooded, intoxicated
criminal to be coolly pinioned, band
aged, prayed over, noose-adjusted and
dropped, is about as terrible torture as
flesh and blood can stand. To any
ordinary mind this inexorable, pro-
tracted weaving of fate is far more pre-
ternatural and overwhelming than any
act of violence can possibly be. ALI this
tremendous aggravation of capital pun
ishment is lost under the wild system of
illegal retribution. Physically and
psychologically, nine men out of ten had
rather meet death in the heat of resist
ance and excitement than under the
law. In this way lynchers defeat their
own purpose. Just where justice be-
comes terribly cool and august they sub
stitute vengeance and passion. Any
full-blooded man had rather encounter
violence than Judgment.

A Money.sMalloming Child.

Specie resumption was reached in the
family of Mrs. Mccain at No. liza
O'Fallan Street, st. Louis, in remark
able manner. The woman had a little
daughter, a bright healthy looking child
of eight years, named Emma. Several
days ago Mrs. McCann missed quite a
package of small currency from bureau
drawer and all search proved unavailing.
The child was taken sick and vomited
up dime. Little was thought of it tun-
til she had another attack and produced
eight dimes in quick succession. They
were somewhat changed in color from
the action of the gastric juice. After
a couple of hours rest the little girl went
to work again and delivered her stomach
of four dimes and nickel. The latter
had been eaten half away and looked
as if corroded by strong acid. Some
hours after the girl had fourth attack
and laid before the astonished physicians
four more dimes, two glass beads and a
glove button. In all the child raised
from her stomach nearly 81. The story
seems almost incredible, but it is well
vouched for. The mother says she has
known of the child swallowing pins
often without experiencing any evil eff
fects, but this is the first time she evel
knew Emma to make money-bag o.
her stomach. .-.

A FRENCH gentleman lately jour
neyed to Marseilles, taking with him the
body of his mother-in-law, who had ex-
pressed wish to be buried in the
family vault in that city. When he
reached Marseilles and went with the
Commissioner of Police to receive the
body from the railway officials, he nc
ticed that the coffin was not that which
he had delivered to them. The officials
had sent to Toulon the coffin containing
his mother-in-law's body, believing that
it held the remains of deceased Ad-
miral, which was to be embarked for in.
terment in Algeria, while the coffin
awaiting delivery was the one which
should have been sent on. The gentle
man having requested the officials to
communicate with Toulon by telegraph,
proceeded hither himself with the cof-
fin of the Admiral. He ascertained
when he got there that the first coffin
had been duly received, taken on board.
amid the thunder of fort and feet, the
State vessel which was waiting for it.
and dispatched to Algeria. He at once
called upon the Maritime Prefect oi
Toulon and explained the circumstance
of the cs5e, but though dispatch boa
was sent in pursuit, the other vessel wa
not overtaken. He is now at TouloI
awaiting her return, and declines to givt
up the coffin containing the deceased
Admiral until he regains possession O
his mother-in-law's remains.

Dangers of Hardened Glass.

There have been several stories told
about hardened glass going to pieces sud-
denly, and without apparant occasion.
The most startling of these has been re-
Gently told by Professor Ricard, of Bohe-
mia. He had bought a child's drinking
cup at the town of Saatz. The cup had
hard usage for about six months, but
seemed worthy of its reputation as hard
ened glass. One evening, after ordinary
use, it was left with spoon in it on a
table, and the room was shut. Shortly
afterward a noise as of a pistol-shot
alarmed the whole household. On enter
ing the room it was found to be Uttered
in every part with shreds of glass, and
that was all that ever was found of the
drinking-cup. 1t is evident that liza
bility to such an explosive performance
may make the hardened glass danger
GUS article in household use. The ma
terials is known to be in a state of ten
sion, like Prince Rupert drop, and the
exact conditions under which it may fly
into fragments are, as yet, unknown.

Pouring Oil ON the Troubled Waters.

The idea expressed in the above head
ing, though commonly held to be of
sacred origin, or as merely poetical
manner of expressing a commonplace
occurrence, may nevertheless be taken
literally as well as fguratively, it being,
as a matter of fact, saying which has
satisfactory groundwork in natural facts.
1t was recently stated in evidence before
the Commissioners appointed to inquire
into the Herring Fisheries Of Scotland,
that the practice of pouring quantity
of oil from boat on to the surface of
the sea during heavy weather had the
immediate effect of calming the waters
and relieving the boat from the danger
of heavy broken water. But" added
one of the witnesses, " although the oil
has this effect for time, the sea becomes
rougher afterwards and SO the advantages
of adopting the plan is practically not
very great" 1t is more than probable
that this latter statement can be ex-
planned by the law of comparisons. The
oil cast out on the weather side of the
boat effectually assuages the violence of
the waves, which instead of breaking
over it, glide smoothly under it. Pres
emily the film of oil becomes dispersed
and the waves, again unchecked, appear
by comparison with the late calm, to bt
still more formidable. A fresh dose o.
oil would, however, again prove advan
tageous, but the experiment is seldom
repeated, and SO the efficacy of the rem
edy is called into question. The bes
way of adopting it is to throw overheard
barrel or skin filed with oil, anc
pierced in two places to allow of tn,
gradual escape of the contents. Thi
reservoir should be secured by rop
and kept on the weather-side of the boat
and renewed as often as necessary. Th
plan is frequently adopted, with the bes
results, by native boatmen in the Persial
Gulf and in parts of the Indian Ocean
where sudden squalls are apt to sprin
up.
