working Peoples Home.

A model home for working people is
described in letter to the Spectator
Nondon). The plan has been designed
and executed by John Elii', at Seaeombe,
Cheshire. The cottages are built in de-
tached hexagonal blocks, each house
forming one segment of the hexagon, and
having separate entrance. A central
shaft, containing fines for each house,
secures economy OF heat and fuel, and
affords an equable temperature through
out the several rooms. Mr.. Ellis utilizes
this Capitalization of heat in providing
an ingenious, but simple method of ven
tilation, the continuous current of the
main shaft carrying off the vitiated air,
and making smoky rooms an impossi-
bility
Fresh, warmed air rs admitted from a
few in the chimney breast, which pre-
vents draughts, as well as the smoke
nuisance. The cottages are two stories
high, the ground floor contains living
room and scullery, the first and second
floors each provide one large or two
small bedrooms. The shape of the
rooms may be objected to, but this is in
great measure overcome by placing cup
boards at the angles next to the fire
place or central shaft, 80 that the want
Of symmetry is hardly noticed.
Mr.. Ellis maintains that by arranging
these blocks face to face, with a proper
interval for front garden and roadway,
he is able to economize building area.
while providing more breathing space to
each house than can be offered by build
ing similar class of houses in rows in
the ordinary way. By dispensing with
the obnoxious back yard and passage,
with their litter, dirt, and bad smells,
extra room is gained in front for the
garden. In construction, the expenses of
numerous chimney stacks, lead hushings
and outside walls are greatly lessened
At rent Of Is. per week, covering water
and all other rates, the dock-laborer or
common sailor of Liverpool and Birken-
head finds himself provided with a clean,
healthy, cheerful home.

The Easy Times Great Warriors
Have.
Denver Tribune

Piah, one of the chiefs supposed to be
engaged in the present outbreak, has
been in Washington. One cold day Gen.
McCook came into his Office and found
Piah sitting by the stove. Thinking it
a good chance to deliver lecture to the
Indian, he said: "Piah, why don't you
Indians plow and raise crops and build
houses? You ought to work. If you did
you would not have to come here to bor-
row my fire, butsconld buy fire of your
own. Why don't you work like white
menw Piah Strengthened up at once.
"Me great warrior" said he. warriors
never plow. Me 60 to, Washington and
see John Grant" (The Indians all call
Grant "John.") John Grant great
warrior. He no work. He no plow.
Me see John Grants squaw. She no
work either, too. Great warriors never
work. Tell you what do. You say to
John Grant he come here and 20 with
me- We go out and fight Rapahoes and
Cheyennes and kill plenty braves and get
plenty squaws. Then squaws work and
me and John have good time. No work
no plow--no nothing" Whether The
proposition was ever forwarded to Grant,
we do not know.

Napoletn's valet during his exile at st.
Helena, and he believed that she, too,
had been employed by the Emperor. J"
Now the list extant of the attendants of
Napoleon when he landed from the North
cumberland At St. Helena is very COM
plete one, and it had been rightly revised
by the British Government. The schedule
comprised in all twenty-five persons, in
cluding the Count and Countess Bertrand
and three children, the Count and Coun-
tess de Montholon, and their son, the
Count de Las Casas and his son; General
Gourgaud; M. Marchand, first valet de
chambre; st: Denis, Noverazz and San
TIM, extra valets; the brothers Archam-
bault, gro0ms; Gentilini, footman; Ci-
priani, maitre d'hotel; lie Page, cook;
Rousseau, steward, and Josephine Ber-
nard and his wife, servants of Count
Bertrand. Many changes were made dur
ing the six years captivity of Napoleon
in the personnel" of his household. Thus
Las Casas and Santini were expelled from
the island and lie Page was replaced by
Chandelier as cook, while towards the
close of the weary drama Antommarchi
came out as surgeon and the Able Wig
nall as chaplain to the dying man. No
mention is made Of any person by the
name of Margot as attached TO the suite
of the ex-Emperor. On the other hand
there was NJ. Mengeaud, who accom-
panied Napoleon, not as valet, but as a
surgeon, from Rochefort to Plymouth on
board the Bellerophon, but who, being
either unwilling or unable to GO with him
to St. Helena, was replaced by Mr.. Barry
O'Meara. 1t is possible that Mrs.
Mareot's husband WIS a resident at
st. Helena and that he went into service
at Longwood subsequent to the arrival of
the exile. But he could scarcely have
been Napoleon's valet.

Demand for Pennies at the Mint.
IPhiladelnhia Record

ulluuSiphi@ hOSo'uJ
There is prospect of a dearth of pen
MES. Philadelphia is the only place
where the smallest coin of the Republic
is turned out, and at the present moment
in fact, for fully three weeks past-the
combined efforts of the coiners have been
directed to the coinage of dollars. Un-
der the act of Congress 100000 dollars
must be coined every month, and, as the
capacity of the Mints at San Francisco
and New Orleans is limited, the bulk of
the work falls upon the one in this city.
The result is that Col. Snowden has been
compelled to discontinue the coinage of
what are known as minor coins-cents
and three and five cent pieces-much
to the annoyance of would-be purchasers,
who, in person and by letter, besiege the
Cashiers Office day after day. 1t was
stated on Saturday at the mint that
$4,000 worth Of pennies could be dis
posed of inside Of week, so great is the
demand. A month ago, before the coin
age was suspended, from $1,000 to
81 800 worth were sold daily, and the
books are filled with orders from all parts
of the country. The officers were taken
aback on Saturday by the receipt Of
request from San Francisco for pennies
to the amount of $1,000. This is stated
to be the first order from that part of
the country for many years. Various
parts of the South are also beginning to
take some stock in cents, large orders
having been received from Georgia and
Alabama within the last few days.

Adam fn Red Granite.

tEtMLuiA
1t said that the citizens of Elmira, N.
Y, propose to erect something before un-
heard ola monument to Adam, the
patriarch of all humanity. If they raise
funds enough, we trust that some Hebrew
Professor will remind them that Adam
means red, and that the tradition is that
he was formed out of red clay. Of course,
then, to be in keeping, the monument
should be constructed from red granite.
As this is, 50 far az we know, indestruct-
ible, the monument, like Cleopatra's
Needle, may be at least as immor-
tai as the world. If the ladies
should object to taking share in the
expense, because of Adams not very
handsome treatment of his spouse, we
beg them to remember that family har-
mony was restored, and, as we believe,
completely. If the probabilities were
against this, Milton (no very partial
Judge of feminine delinquencies) would
surely have paraded the supposed fact in
his Paradise Lost" Whereas he seemed
to be inclined quite another way; and
we have always been disposed to make a
great deal of the manner in which Adam
and his wife took their leave of Paradise,
according to the poets picture Of the
scene:
| seThe world was all before them, where To choose
Their place of rest ana Providence their guide;
They hand in hand, with wandring steps and
SLOW
Through Eden took their solitary way"
Thus, we hope, the sons and daug ghters
of Adam in Western New York will imi-
tate their remote progenitors, and 60
hand in hand toward the erection Of a
monument which shall be fresh for
hundred generations.

The Perils Of Coal Mining.


During the month Of October twenty
four mine accidents were reported to
Mine Inspector Jones Of this district. OF
this number seven were fatal and seven
teen non-fatal. The principal agent of
death during the month appears to have
been fall OF roof, and a number of per-
sons were badly injured by mine cars
Ten persons were killed or injured by fall
ing roof, eight by mine cars and four by
premature explosions of blast. 1t is
worthy of notice that the district has
been siugularly free from accidents by
explosion Of fre-damp. Mr.. Jones has
regularly addressed circulars to superin-
tendents, mine bosses, and others in
charge of responsible positions, warning
them to be constantly on their guard
against danger. The nature of the
months accidents is such that it would
seem number of them were caused by
carelessness. .y

Eccentricltias of English Justice.


London News
The leniency of the punishment dealt
out by magistrates to husbands who half
murder their wives, or to cabmen who
assault and rob the confding fare, is
wholesomely varied by the discipline to
which bench of Devonshire magis-
trates have subjected three young men
who had temporarily strayed from the
paths of virtue and killed a hare. The
case came out at the Holsworthy Monthly
Sessions, Just held The magistrates on
the bench were Mr.. w. J. Harris, Mr. w.
w. Melhuish and Mr.. G.. w. Saun-
ders. The prisoners were Thos. Pether-
ick, James Sanders, described as "sons
of respectable farmers,") and Stephen
Sluggett, servant in the employ of
Pethericks father. According to Mr..
Burch's evidence, he met the three de-
PENDANTS on the high-road, and, himself
in the shadow, watched them for two
hours. At the end Of this time his pa
tience and fidelity were rewarded by see
ing Sluggett "fall on hare with net in
hand, kill the hare, and put it in his
pocket. Then all three went off togeth-
er." There was no gainsaying the evil
denee of the respectable and persistent
Mr.. Burch. In vain the solicitor who
appeared for the defendants denounced
the statute under which the information
was laid, and which was passed in the
good old days Of George w., as "barba-
rous,"
To deaf ears he pleaded that the lives
of the three young men had hitherto
been blameless, and that to send to prison
the. young farmers would be to sully the
reputation Of two respectable families.
The magistrates, having retired to con-
slider the case, returned in few min
utes," and sentenced Thomas Petherick
and Stephen Sluggett to one months imy
prisonment, with hard labor; while James
Sanders, for connivance at the crime,
was sent to Exeter Jail for one week,
with hard labor. Nor is this all. AT
the expiration of the term Of imprison-
ment the three young men are to be
bound over in sureties to keep the peace
