Blind With Rage,

An accident which has just occurred
in a workshop in Paris lends curious
significance to the common phrase,
"blind with rage" An overseer of the
works, whose character was in most re-
spects highly esteemed by the artisans
under him, and who was known to be
good-natured enough at heart, had the
unfortunate popularity of losing bis
temper when put out" by any coqatre-
temps, great Or small. II is reported
that day or two ago, on finding that
one of the men had not finished piece
of work which was urgently required,
he fell into such state Of fury as to
strike the man in the face. Almost in
the very act of striking, however, he
staggered back, shouting for aid and
complaining that he could not see.
The workmen came round him with Of
| fers of assistance, but nothing could be
done. 1t was certain that he had sud-
denly lost the use of both his eyes.
Medical evidence showed that some OF
the blood vessels behind the eye had
burst, and that the blood had inundated
the interior cavities of the eyeballs.
The case is very rare one. Henry Ii.
is said to have endured agonies and to
have refused food for long periods when
enraged by any yexatious news. a still
more notable example is that of the
Pope Boniface WILL, who, in the hight
of his dispute with the French King,
was so annoyed by an act of the latter
that he fell into fit of apoplexy which
cost him his life.

LONDON Daily NeUs: Herr Krupp
has just issued programme of some
interesting experiments with his breech-
loading guns which are to take place at
his ground at Essen some time in July.
The trials will last over four days, and
the principle feature will be the firing
of the huge seventy-ton steel cannon,
which has calibre of fifteen and three
quarters inches, and is put forward to
rival the eighty-ton Woolwich gun. As
rule the range will vary from 1000 to
5000 yards, but in one case gun of
four and half inches will be tested at
10,940 yards, or at range of rather
more than six miles. Altogether Herr
Krupp's programme is a very exhaust
i've one, and from first to last no fewer
Ian two hundred and forty rounds are
to be fired from the cannon Of various
salibres."

con the arrival of the reinforce
ments," says the Dolly NeOs, "the Bit
ish army in Zululand will be consider
ably larger than that which was present
at Waterloo. or at the Alma. At the
memorable battle which ended in the
overthrow of Napoleon, the English
troops numbered just under twenty
four thousand. At the first great fight
in the Crimea the British ; forces con-
sisted of twenty-six thousand men.
When the troops sent out during the
last few days have crossed the Tugela
the strength of the English army within
the Zulu territory will be ovel thirty
thousand.

THERE comes TO hand from Ogden,
away out in Idaho, paper which tells
of a recent attempt to kidnap Jay
Gould. The Ogden Freeman, of June 6,
says that band of desperate train rob
bers posted themselves along the un-
guarded Snake river plains on the line
of the Union Pacific with the idea OF
catching Gould as he should pass
through to Ogden. Having caught him
the robbers proposed to take him into
the British possessions and there keep
hrm until he should agree to pay an
immense ransom. But Gould heard OF
the plot, paid his informant iberally
and escaped.

The race is not to the swift, nor the
battle to the strong, nor Is it the man
with the largest mouth that gets the
most favors in this world. Yesterday
forenoon very quiet stranger entered
a real-estate Office on Griswold street
and softly asked if he could use blot
ting-pad moment. One was handed
him and he sat down to a table, looked
around, and said:
"Ah! thanks. but have you pen and
ink %
They were furnished him. He tried
the pen on the pad, shook the ink
around, and modestly continued:
eff you could spare sheet of
paper?'
A sheet was handed him. He wrote
brief letter, folded it up, and whisper
ed:
Il shall have to beg an envelope of
you?"
An envelope was passed over, and
when he had directed it he looked all
over the table, under the table, up at
the ceiling, and enquired:
"You couldn't lend me stamp, could
you? p
A three-center was handed out, and
when it had been licked on, the strang-
er rose and started out saying:
"As you have no ofice-boy suppose
shall have to take this letter to the of
fee myself"
