In q Thunder.ClOud

ON the 23d of August NJ. F Stroll,
of Linz, joined a party which was maxi
ing the ascent of Gross Gleckner. The
members of the party left the Stuedl-
huette together at two o'clock in the
morning, with storm apparently
threatening from the west. At three
o'clock a. M, they found themselves in
the middle of the storm-cloud, and were
compelled by the Egyptian darkness
surrounding them to come to COM
plete halt. Suddenly the storm broke
out directly over their heads, the thun-
der and lightning, which at the same
time came on, being at once awful and
grand in the extreme. There were
other parties ascending the mountain at
the same time, and some of their guides
and members, who, during the brilliant
flashes were able clearly to
distinguish the party to which MIR.
Stroll belonged, stated after the storm
had subsidized that the electric fluid
seemed to strike into and all around
the company in the stOrm-cloud. 10
the six persons of whom this party con-
sisted, all nature seemed to be the
scene of one, vast conflagration, and
they were prepared for the worst. The

her requirements, the dealeroffers either
exchange or purchase, as may be most
acceptable.
At first the objection was made: ..Oh,
dear! l cannot sell Aunt Mary's opera

will they say?" But different opinion
is soon arrived at, when she thinks of the
remaining five or six articles of the

There is another side to tins new bust

people are beginning to seek out the
wedding-present dealers with view of
obtaining cheaper presents for their
marrying friends. OF course they are
as good as new, and as they are pur-
chased cheaply enough from the bride,
they can be sold at moderate prices.
The latter idea is not entirely new
among ourselves, for last season it. was
known that many firms in London
marked suitable articles for wedding
presents secondhand, that intending
purchasers might think them cheap.

Reading Before Spelling.

BOsToN has passed successfully the
first stages of q revolution in its system
of primary education, and its achieve
ment is thus chronicled in the press.
The reform went into operation with
the present school year. The main
work of the primary schools is to teach
children to read, or rather to begin to
teach them to read, for it is well known
that few pupils after their three years
in these schools have made much prog
ress. Beside this, they get q little
knowledge Of numbers and a little of
writing. The old way of teaching
children to read was by teaching them
their letters, one by one. then the SIM
plest combinations, like alb, alb, and SO

spelling at every stage. 1t Is but q lit
tie while since this was done away
with, and whatis known as 1.-THE word
method was introduced, by which
children were Taught to recognize
words by sight before they knew the
names Of the letters. and Of course be-
fore they could spell at all. 1t was a
great surprise to the teachers by the
old system to discover that q child

the word hat, for example, whenever

The other day an omnibus full of pas
sengers drove up town from the Union
depot. Side by side sat commercial
traveller named William Macaby and
Mrs. Winnie C. Dumbleton, the eminent
lady temperance lecturer. When the
omnibus reached the Barrett House the
commercial missionary seized his valise
and started out. The lady made grab
after him, and he halted.

"You are certainly mistaken, mad

but firmly, /" this is mine.'' ....,

thousand. You must not take it.
But the traveller persisted and the lady
insisted, and they came very near quar-
reling. Presently one of the passengers
pointed to a twin valise in the omnibus,
and asked:
sfWhose is that?'' Il, -.+s..,
cit isn't mine,'' said the traveller;
cit is just like it, but this is mine.'
-'sAnd it isn't niinc,'' said the lady,

lady can't travel alone in this country
without being robbed of her property in
broad daylight" ne
Finally, the traveller said he would
open the valise to prove his property.
The lady objected at first, saying she
did not want her valise opened in the
presence of crowd of strangers. But
as there was no other means of settling
the dispute she at length consented.
The traveller sprung the lock, opened
the valise, and the curious crowd bent
forward to see.

cards and one or two things that nobody

Guarding Millions.

The Sub-Treasury contains at pres

$3.50, 600, 900 in gold, and S23, 0OO, 900 in
greenbacks. The new silver vault,
which has been in use some months,
will store $40, 900, and the pros
poets are that it will soon be filled. The
silver is placed in bags containing 81
GOO each, and the different issues of
coin are kept separate. Gold is held in
bags containing S5, 600, and greenbacks
in packages Of 1000 notes. In addi-
ton to the silver vault there are two
other vaults on the main floor, each of
which is built on the plan of first
class SAFE They contain the gold and
greenbacks, the lock combination being
held by Mr.. Ashley, the specie clerk,
and Mr.. Britain, the cashier, and once
a month the surveyor of the port makes
an examination of the treasure on hand.
At night four men, suitably armed, are
put on guard and patrol the main hall.
Eight men are engaged in this service,
their tour being alternate nights. Dur
ing the day there are two policemen in
uniform in the hall, two detectives in
ordinary citizens dress also keeping
watch. One of these (Thomas Samp-

The watchmen receive seventy-tive dol

Burning Of the Body Of the Late DR..
LIE Moyne.


fITTSbUHGh, fa.s OCCODer 10.
At eight o'clock this morning services
were read at the late residence of DR..
LIE Moyne. They were brief and sim
pie, consisting of the reading of few
selections from the Scriptures, and
prayer by DR.. Hayes, President of
Washington College. The remains
were then conveyed to the crematory
in hearse, DR.. Frank L.. Moyne,
Julius LIE Moyne, and several friends
of the family, acting as pall-bearers.
When the body had been placed on the
catafalque, DR.. Hayes said: 1--WE have
now brought our deceased friend to
the place of his choice, and here we
leave him. After announcing that the
relatives requested all persons to return
to; the village, the Doctor uttered the
bUnediction, and the door was closed,
shutting out all but the relatives and
those employed to do the work about
the furnace. At ten o'clock the body
was taken out of the coffin and placed
upon the, crib. At half-past ten the
door of the retOrt was opened. The
body, covered with sheet which had
been saturated with alum-water. was
thrust in and the door closed. In a few
seconds dense volume of black smoke
rose from the chimney, and the odor of
burning flesh greeted the olfactories of
the few persons who remained out
side. The furnace was not suffi-
sciently incandescent, and the progress
of incarceration was rather slow. At two
O'Clock the man in charge Of the fur
mace pronounced the cremation accom-
plished. There was no excitement,
very little interest being taken in the
affair by the public. The ultimate re-
mains will not be removed from the re-
tort before Saturday evening, What
disposition, will be made of them is
known only to the family. About one
O'clock ., story obtained currency in
Pittsburgh that, owing to the furnace
mot being hot enough, the remains were
