Since the accession of King William to
the Imperial throne of Germany, four
attempts have been made upon his life.
The first was June, 1S49, at Nieder-Ingel-
helm, while he was on his way to Baden
to take command Of the ,Prussian forces.
The next was in 1861, at Baden Baden,
by crazy student, who charged him with
incapacity to effect the union of Germany.
The third was only a few weeks ago, and
the last was on the I'd inst, from all Of
which, either through the intervention of
Providence, or the awkward stupidity Of
his would-be assassins, the Emperor has
escaped without. serious injury. Unless
better marksmen are put upon his track
with something more effective than buck
shot the tough old monarch is likely to
die natural death. i5.fIs

They have adopted a new mode Of
dealing with tramps in Providence,
Rhode Island. II Instead Of giving gratuit-
Gus lodgings in police stations, a wood
yard has been opened, and all applicants
tor accommodations are notified that they
would be expected to work next morning.
when morning arrives the dodgers are
escorted to the wood yard, and after three
hours, toll they receive a hearty dinner.
So far the traMps have worked willingly,
and not ono has tried to evade earning
his board and lodging, and many have
expressed themselves thankful for the
opportunity to toll. The city of Providence
sells the wood sawed by the tramps, but
makes it point not to undersell the reg
ular dealers Is their any doubt that if
remunerative labor could be readily furn-
ished, it would materially deplete the
great army Of tramps. ga 5EjH b
The Supreme Court OF Wisconsin has
decided that corporal punishment inflict-'
ed W on pupil by a teacher in the pub
die schools furnishes sufficient grounds
for an action for assault and battery. This
decision is alread bearing its legitimate
fruit. In some schools unruly pupils bid
defiance to their teachers, and their
authority is thus successfully defed, land
decentralization steps in to take the place
of order. As well forbid a policeman to
use force to take q culprit to the station
The decision is not founded in wisdom.
While not advocating severe, or frequent
corporal punishment, there will be ex-
ceptionaL cases when it is not only de-
served, but imperative. A teacher worthy
of his position can be, and should be
trusted to admieister wholesome dis
cipline according to the necessity Of each
individual case, and should properly be
held responsible for any abuse Of his dis
ciplinary authority. ..l
Lord Rosebery presided lately at the
annual meeting of the Sunday Society,
in London, which advocates the opening
ofthe national museums and picture gal
leriea on Sunday. Two centuries ago, he
said, the Puritans found a Sunday where,
after church, innocent recreation was al
lowed. With the best intentions in the
world, they took away every thing but
the church, to which modern civilization
has added the tap-room. Lord Rosebery
further said that. the Puritans had left
first the inheritance Of the morals of the
Restoration, and what has
been far more permanent and abiding,
the great inheritance Of cant. This is
what the members of the Sunday Society
have to fight against. They would not
close the public houses on Sunday. but
they would open the national museums
and art galleries, which are the peoples
