An Eccentric Granger.

Captain Calvin Hall, who recently
died in Somers, Mass, at the age of 81
years, was one of the most eccentric far
mers in western Massachusetts. He
would never begin piece OF work on
Friday, would cut his finger nails at
stated times, would never kill hog for
his own use unless the moon was grow
ing larger, so that the meat would swell
while cooking, would "talk" to burns to
cure the pain, and had as many super
stitious notions as heather. To look
up and see an odd number of COWS was
to him an omen of bad luck, and to see
the new moon over his right shoulder in
dicated that good fortune lay in his
pathway. Such a man was good sub
ject for spiritualism, and when the ta-
bic tippings attracted attention thirty
years ago Uncle Calvin was ready to fall
into line. He sold his farm, distributed
his property among his heirs, keeping
only. what he supposed he might need,
and that he put into the hands of trus-
tees, and soon become first class me-
dunn. He built church in his own
town for the worshipers of the new faith
and for many years, until incapacitated
by age, he was q leader of the sect, claim.

miracles. .''.<''.

Had Forgottan Hinaalf.

!, An incident, a somewhat ludicrous
one, too, of the fire of the Hagerstown
Hotel, has been told US by one who was
There and who literally "barely"
escaped with his life. He is a travelling
man. Being suddenly awakened that
night by bright light shining in his
Iface, he discovered that the window
frame of his room, on the third floor,
was one blaze of fame and that the
apartment was rapidly filling with
smoke. he left at once, how he knows
not, but finally succeeded in reaching
the ground by jump from second
story window. When safely landed he
stood watching the word of destruction,
and near by him were group of very
thinly y-clad females, also gazing.
While thus standing he noticed q
party of fremen hurrying past with a
quantity of feminine apparel. He
Immediately, with that gallantry so in
keeping nth travelling man, hailed the
men with:
"Look here, you fellows, give these
ladies some of those clothes"
The reply was in an instant:
"Al right, stranger, we'll DO SO; but
don't you think it would be a good idea
to put on pair of spurs yourself2"
The last remark caused him to in
vestigate himself, when he found that
his whole custom was a shirt, a vest
and a pair of CATERS, while the rest Of
his garments hung idly over his arm
Our friend blushed, sought a refuge
and pulled on his pants.-MoFristown

Facts About Flour.

Flour is peculiarly sensitive to atmos-
pheric influences, hence it should never
be stored in a room with sour liquids,
nor where onions and fish are kept, nor
any article that taints the air of the
room in which it is kept. Any smell
perceptible to the sense will be absorbed
by -four. Avoid damp cellar or lofts
where free circulation of air cannot be
obtained. Keep in a cool, dry, airy
room, and not exposed to freezing
temperature nor to an intense summer,
or to artificial heat for any length OF
time above seventy or seventy.fve
degrees. 1t should not come in contact
with grain or any substances liable to
heat. Flour should be sifted and the
particles thoroughly disintegrated, and
then warmed before baking. This treat
ment improves the color and baking
properties of the dough. The sponge
should be prepared for the oven as soon
as the yeast has performed it's mission
otherwise fermentation sets in and acid

Peter the Great and We Hollander's
Wig.

On his second visit to a town in
Holland, he and the burgomaster Of the
place attended divine service, when an
Unconscious action of the czar almost
upset the gravity of the congregation,
Peter, feeling his head growing cold,
turned to the heavily.wigged chief
magistrate at his side and transferred the
wig, the hair on which flowed down over
the great little mans shoulders, to his
own head, and sat 20 till the end of the
service, when he returned it to the insult
ed burgomaster, bowling his thanks.
The great mans fury was not appeased
till one of Peters suite assured him
that it was no practical joke at all that
his his majesty had played; that his usual
custom, when in church, if his head was
cold, was to seize the nearest wig he
could clutch.-Beyravia.

How Tweed's Daughters Lost SO 900
by his Escape to spain.

When William NJ. Tweed was at the
height of his prosperity, in 1868, he took
a policy of insurance on his life from
the Knickerbocker Life Insurance Com
pany. The instrument was issued on
the ten year endowment plan. It was
drawn for the benefit of his daughters.
Josephine S. Douglas and Jenny S.
Tweed, who were to receive the $4,000
in case of his death. If, however,
he was to be alive Nov. l, 1878, he would
not be paid the endowment of $4,000
One Of the conditions was that il
would become void if Tweed would take
q sea voyage without the consent of the
insurance company. A stipulation in
dorsed on the instrument declared that
if a default should be made by Tweed
or the benefciariet under the policy,
after the payment of not less than three
annual premiums, the insurance COM
pany, upon the surrender of the policy,
would issue new policy of an amount
proportionate to The premiums paid.
Tweed and his daughters paid eight
annual premiums of 1,18O,90, and then
defaulted. In December, 1875, Tweed
escaped from Sheriff Brennan's custody,
and subsequently went across the
Atlantic to Vigo, Spain, where he was
arrested. After his death his daughters
called on the Knickerbocker life in.
surance company to take back the old
policy, and to issue to them paid-up
policy for $4,000, the sum proportionate
to the premiums paid. The corporation
refused to issue a new policy, and claim
ed that the old one became void when
Tweed went across the Atlantic. Mrs.
Douglas and her sister sued the company
in the superior court, claiming that the
stipulation respecting the issuance of a
paid-up policy after the payment of
three premiums was separate contract
to which they were parties, and that it
could not be vitiated by the violation by
the insured person of a condition in the
policy. The case was tried before
Judge Freedman, in the superior court
special term, and he decided in favor o1
the defendant, holding that the stipula'
ton was not contract separate from the
policy. An appeal was taken to the
general term, which body yesterday
affirmed Judg &c Freedman's decision and
adopted his opinion as its own.-N Y
