He Sus pected Everybody.

Some said he was naturally suspicious
This was partly true. But Others say
that in early life some unfortunate
affairs had an unhappy effect on his
moods and tempers. If felony was
committed in his neighborhood, and
there hung mystery over the question
Of the perpetrator, our hero looked wise,
and seemed to hint that he knew the man.
In this way he once came to be seriously
suspected of being an accessory after the
fact. But he was wholly innocent.
One day he was walking down the
street and saw some men talking and
laughing. Occasionally they looked up
the street. BY the time he reached the
group his face was very red He looked
vexed. He supposed their laughter was
in some way at his expense. Fortunate
ly, he paused long enough to find that
they were making merry over the sayings
and doings of a political meeting of their
own party.
One lent him a book which had been
read with care, and several passages were
marked with a pencil. He supposed the
owner of the book int ended 70 hurt his
feelings by calling special attention to
certain clauses, and yet it was fact that
the owner did not know that there was
pencil mark on any page.
In fact, our friend often suspected
same evil intention in the kindest acts
of his best friends. A strange minister
once delineated in the pulpit the char
acter of a litigous man. Our friend
went home silent, if not surly, and com.
planned of personalities in the pulpit.
His children caught his spirit. At
school he often considered themselves
sighted. Thus family feuds were en-
gendered.
Of course he was unhappy-miserable.
The signs of his conscious wretchedness
were infallible. All this was quite un-
necessary. He was his own tormentor.
If he would read this paper, he would
say: "The author of that piece misun-
derstood me. Why willnot people mind
their own business, and let others alone"
He has no enemy who does him as much
disservice, or inhicts on him as much
pain as he brings on himself. If his
nervous system were shattered, one
would make many excuses for him.
But he seems to have fine health, and
certainly he eats as much as is good for
him.

European Tramps.

Wandering bands of gypsies are still
found in parts Of Europe, and even in so
well settled and strictly governed a
country as Germany. They travel with
their women, children, houses and bag
gage, and are sometimes numerous and
strong enough to overawe the farmers,
and even bid defiance to the village con-
stabulary. Nominally they are in Ger
many accorded permission to stop for a
limited time in the neighborhood of the
hamlets which they meet on their cratic
course, but in reality they often stop as
long as they please, with or without per-
mission, while their horses Craze on the
farm lands, and game and poultry mys.
teriously disappear from the vicinity.
A newspaper correspondent, writing
from Kostheim, near Mayence, gives an
amusing account of the sudacity of a
band of these European trsmps who en-
camped near that place, made havoc
with the adjacent crops and fields, defied
the messengers of the burgomaster and
did not move until the military reserve
of the village had been called out, even
then not retreating without making a
show of battle and evidently giving way
only to superior force.

Going A-Nutt1nr.

Golden October, with its mellow sun.
shine-it has been very mellow during
the past week--its crispy frosts, the dewy
delicious mornings, and the hazy, dreamy
afternoons bring back recollections of
youth. If that "springtime" was passed
in the country, the autumn brings mem
cries of chasing the squirrels from the
corn-felds and the hickories, of gather.
ing ferns and bright-colored leaves with
the girls, of fishing and cunning, and
best of all, "going a.nutting.'. The boy
who never gotta lickin'" for tearing
his trowsers on the ugly shag- bark"
who has never sat under the beeches and
crunched the triangular little nuts that
the wild turkeys love so well; who has
never been frightened half to death by
the farmer whose young walnuts ne was
clubbing and stoning, who has never
worn his hands in mahogany for weeks
arter a walnut "shuck;" who never
pounded his thumb to a Jelly in his
efforts to crack butternut on end; who
does not know soft.s helled hickory
from a bitternut, is to be pitied. For if
he has grown to mans estate, whatever
that may be, he has gone by days that
will never return; he has missed an ex-
perience that can never be obliterated
from the memory of the genuine country
toy.-Detr0it Free Press.

A Valuable Stone.

At Old Lyme, Conn, on the estate of
the Hon. Charles J. McCurdy, there is
a deposit of Labradorine felpspar, or
carnelian granite, sufficient for not only
for building the most enduring mansions
and costly edifces, but for erecting mon
uments in the presence OF which ordin-
airy monuments appear as shadows re-
Elected from polished mirror. This
stone has already received choice prem
ium medals from the American Centen-
NAL and also from the late Paris Expo
sition, and as business revives it bids fair
to become an important industry and
source of national wealth.

Josh Billings on Marriage.

Sum marry because they think win.

wonder how the crop holds out.
Sum marry to get rid of themselves
and discover that the game was one that
two could play at and neither win.
Sum marry for love without cent in
their pocket, nor a friend in the world
nor drop of pedigree. This looks des
perate, but it is the strength of the game
Sum marry in haste and then sit Govr

ELECTRIC ExECUTlONs.

That species of solemn fanaticism
for which the Germans are famous has
! reached about it's climax in q letter of
q pastor in Prussian village to one
of the leading Berlin papers. The
epistle reads as If the ghosts of Hoff-
mann and Hauff had been galvanized
from their graves especially to write it.
Its author commences by deploring
the fact that our modern punishment
for murder simply makes the execu-
toner guilty of the same crime as his
victim that we can only ayenge one
assassination by another. A second
source of regret TO him is that the ex-
ecution has virtually become species
of brutal and degrading show. In
view of these facts, he suggests the
following improvements in capital
punishment:
The scene of an execution shall be
the courtroom in which the sentence
was pronounced upon the murderer.
The walls of the room shall be draped
in black, and the windows somberly
curtained, in order to exclude all light.
The only article of furniture in the
apartment shall be the Judges desk
and an arm chair. In the middle of
the room shall be an iron figure of
Justice, with her scales and sword.
This effigy shall haye in place Of
bowels as powerful an electric battery
as may be necessary. The battery
shall be connected with the arm chair
and governed by a mechanism in con-
nection with the scales. The scene
shall be lighted by single torch,
burning on the Judges desk.
The only persons admitted to the
execution shall be the Judge, jury and
other officials concerned in the con-
demnation of the victim. That per-
son shall be brought and seated in the
chair, to which he shall be manacled
immovably.
Then the Judge shall read the story
of his crime to him and reiterate his
sentence. This performed, he shall
break a rod of Office and toss it into
Justices balance.
The scales will be weighed down by
this, and the electric current thus set
in circulation. AS the balance de-
scends the Judge shall extinguish the
torch, signifying that he puts out the
life.
So, in utter darkness, the subtle cur
rent of the great battery will do it's
work. Unseen BY mortal eyes the
condemnd man will expiate his
crime and justice will literally avenge
itself. .ry..if..,-.

ANCIENT CITIES.

Three thousand years ago Ninevah
contained ZIG square miles; its walls,
100 feet high, with towers of twice
that height, took $4,000 men eight
years to build. Babylon was yet larg-
er. The city founded by Nimrod, 2.
23S B. G.. had its hanging gardens, .
series of terraces raised one above an.
other, on piers about forty feet high,
till they overtopped the walls of the
city. Each terrace comprised abeut
three acres and a hall, planted with
trees and shrubs. The government
was despotic, but tempered by curi-
Gus check. The king had absolute
power, but could not rescind his de-
crees. Eagles were trained to ACCOM-
pany tho warriors in their battles, to
pluck out the eyes of the enemy, or to
feast upon the conquered. Very
many cruelties were practiced upon
the captives. In one of the rural
scenes, the king, who quaffs the gob-.
lot in an arbor is gratiffed by the sight
of the head of an enemy hanging upon
a tree. The royal quarry was ths lion.
Parks were kept entirely for the king
to enjoy the lion hunt.

Mr.. BENZ. N. Cardozo, doing bust.
ness at Is Jackson street, yesterday re-
ceived q letter from his cousin, Mr..
Ben. H. Hart, one of the proprietors
of the Kimberley diamond mine. dated
from !" Kimberley, South Africa"
From an exceedingly interesting letter
of eight large pages, we were permit
ed to Gull the following description OF
the process officiating, excavating and
operating . diamond mine in South
Africa, which we present 10 our read.
ers as peculiarly interesting in this
country:
shall now endeavor to give you,
to the best Of my poor ability, sketch
of the Kimberly mine as it is. i will
first describe the kopjie as we'll as
am able. Don't expect an elaborate
description and you won't be disap-
pointed. You must imagine yourself
in an immense plain; when you arc
there drive peg in any part of the
ground, to which attach q piece of
string, in length, the string must be
900 feet take this string out to the
full extent, 500 feet mark the spot,
then walk round with the string
stretched to the full length until you
arrive at the starting point. You will
then have a circle of 5000 feet. Ex-
cavate this as follows: Let the great
est depth be 42O feet and the smallest
about 26O feet; build depositing boxes
round the outer circle of the cavity,
from which lead wires into the ground
below, for hauling purposes. From
these depositing or receiving boxes 60
back 500 to LOCO feet aud build engine
houses right round and put engines in
same varying from five to twenty
horse power, one to every receiving
box. Attach wires from the engines
to paes over the Jumpers that are on
the depositing boxes, and SO into the
basin you have dug. The wires must
be fixed to tuba of, in size, say twenty
cubic feet have thousands of Ksffirs
in this pit picking aud shoveling
ground into these tubs. Tell your en-
gineers to get up steam and haul
away, one tub going up full of ground
the other going down al the same time
empty, carts ut deyery depositing box
removing the contents of same to the
sorting ground Some sorting places
are mile from the kopjie you have
dug. You are fully at work now, ,tnbs
going down, tubs coming up, carts
and going, Kafirs shouting
and singing, all hustle and confusion
and thus you have the best description
can give of the Kimberley mine.
Were DI to enumerate the different
ways of working, such as telling you
how, tram cars are used instead of
carts, tunnels dug, shafts cut. and sew
eral other things in connection with
the z working lof this great mine,
should run short Of pens, ink and
phperA so with the poor idea have
given you mu st rest content. In my
next will tell you how most people
live here, aud the manners and Gus
torf9s of the "Kimberlyites.

IT is astounding to contemplate the

IT is astounding to contemplate the
statistical statement that the total con.
sumption of peanuts in the United
States last year was 1,3SO,O0O bushels.
Nearly the whole of this was supplied
by North Carolina, Tennessee and
Virginia, the last-named State being
by far the heaviest producer $40, 600
bushels in 1861, 4O5. 600 bushels In
1878, and 875, 600 bushels In 1889.
The growing crop is estimated at L.
10000 bushels; but with the increase
of fairs and excursions from the rural
districts-times when peanuts are lux
uries-the production will haye to
hump itself to get tahead of the demand.
