General Cambr0nne.

There was young corporal in the gar
rison of Nantes in the year 1895. He
was q spirited young fellow, barely twen-
"; bat, young though he was, he had
already learned to drink to excess, accord
ing to the too-frequent custom of the day.
Brave and eXcitable, wine was bad
master for him; and one day, in a mo-
ment of intoxication, he was tempted to
strike an officer who was giving him an
order.
Death was the punishment of such an
ofiense and to death the lad was con-
demneQ.
The colonel of his regiment, remem-
bering the intelligence and bravery OF the
young criminal, spared no pains to obtain
q remission OF the sentence; at first with
no success, bat finally hampered with a
certain condition-that the prisoner
should never again in his life be found
intoxicated.
The colonel at once proceeded to the
military prison and summoned Cam
bronze.
You are in trouble, corporal" he said.
True, colonel; and l forfeit my life
for my folly" returned the young fellow.
1T may be So" quoth tie colonel,
shortly.
''May be-" demanded Cambronne.
"You are aware of the strictness of mar
tial law, colonel; I expect no pardon;
have only to die"
"But suppose I bring you pardon on
one condition."
The lads eyes sparkled. "a condition!
Let me hear it colonel! l would do
much to save life and honor"
You must never again get drunk"
"Oh, colonel! that is impossible!"
"Inpossible, boy! with death as an
alternative! You will be shot tomorrow

II Go think Of it. But never to get

"But, unhappy boy! could you not

The young soldier paused; then looked
up.
But, colonel, if l promise, what guar
antee will you have that shall keep my
promise?"
"Your word Of honor" said the officer

a light came into the young fellows

Then I promise" he said, solemnly.
God hears me. I, Cambronne, swear

Vitality of Seeds.

At Cornell University, an estimate has
recently been made of the annual crop of
seed produced by some Of our weeds:
Dandelion, 1900; ox-eye daisy, $4,000;
dock, $4,000; burdock, q, 600; mayweed,
10000; red poppy, $4,000. After read
ing these figures, the only wonder is that
these weeds can be kept down at all. In
fact however, but small portion OF the
seeds get planted. Seed may remain In
the ground several years, only to become
weeds when the ground Is stirred. In
evidence OF this, the Professor refers to
toaacco field where the seed has been
allowed to ripen and fall. For ten years
aiteTward tobacco plants appeared In the
f@io from this seeding.

The Grand Duke Nicholas Constantine
yitch, who was exiled from st. Petersburg
to Orenburg for theft, and placed in the
civil service under orders of the Governor
of that city, has incurred a new disgrace
by secretly marrying the daughter of the
Chief Of Police OF Orenburg without per-
mission, either of his parents or the Gov
ernor. He has, consequently, lost his
position in the civil service, and his title
as honorary commander of the regiment

birth. As certain formaGties of the mar

Stopping Holes in Castings.

For stopping holes in castings, or for
covering scars, useful cement, it is said,
may be made of equal parts of gum
arabic, plaster of Paris and iron filings,
and if little finely pulverized white
glass be added to the mixture, It will
make it stiH harder. This mixture forms
very hard cement that will resist the ac-

A peculiar form ofdisease of very
terrible character seems TO have been
manifesting itself recently in Italy.
At the Lunatic Asylum of Mantua
the expenses have during the last
eight years, more than doubled, and
the cause of the increase is said to he
the spread of 4 malady called "Pella.
gra," which accounts for 60 per cent.
Of the patients. The first symptoms
of the 'Pellagra' are manifest on the
skin and in the mouth. Then the in
testines become affected, the muscular
and nervous functions, and finally the
brain. A constant and obstinate diar-
rhea is one of the principal signs; then
utter loss of strength, so that the pa
tient attempting to walk falls forward.
Sight and hearing fail, and in the
pOst-mO,tem examinations the heart is
found to he extremely small. Ex.
treme melancholy and desire for
death invariably accompany the mala.
dy; some times the patient becomes
idiotic, but generally madness assumes
the more violent forms. The origin
of Pellagra is attributed to the use Of
India corn as the sole article of food.
1t is only found in districts where the
peasantry live on polents.

The clamor of a certain class of pol.

justment'- meaning a reputation of
a pOrtion-Of the State debt, has re-
suited, as was foreseen, in practically
destroying the credit OF the grand old
Commonwealth. Recently the Gov.
ernor, finding it necessary to borrow
100000 to keep open the public
schools, application was made to four
of the Richmond banks for a loan Of
that amount, but up to this time the
money LAS not been forthcoming, and

"what God has joined together let
no man put asunder." This, as il
started over the telegraph wires from
Washington Courthouse, to reach its
destination two hours later at George
town, Colorado, three thousand miles
away. ended the most novel marriage
on record, joining "iill death shall
part" Mr.. Wheeler c. Ellis. at
Georgetown. and Miss Lima Sallers,
at thi. town. The history Of this
strange proceeding. as related to the
Enquirer man by a friend Of the par
ties. is as follows; Three years since,
Wheeler Ellis, young, poor, and
hard working mechanic, left Wash
ington or the far West to seek his
fortune, leaving behind lovely and
lonely maiden to await his coming at
some future time, when his finances
would admit Of marriage. The time
had come this week, hut, on account
Of business engagements, the young
man found he could not make the trip
FAD. A friesd arriving here yester.
day from the West was commissioned
10 take the young woman to George
town, where the ceremony would he
performed. This arrangement, tho
entirely in accordance with the young
lady's wishes, dii net suit her mother,
who so strenuously objected TO this
way Of the thing being done, that
some other plan must he adopted or
the affair postponed.
The girl had waited long already,
and nothing but distance seemed to
stand in the way, so at the suggestion
of Rev. George Carpenter, the tele-
graph was called into service. This
calmed the old lady's objections, and
the preacher performed the ceremony.
No cards. The only spectators were
a friend or two. From the time of
the first message till the young man
answered the solemn 81 do" was
something over four hours. The bride
started to-day for a home and husband
in the West, with the best wishes OF
many friends. The parties are well
known here, and the affair caused
quite a ripple of excitement when it
became known. 1t is unequaled in
strangeness in the annals of marriages.
