Curious Proceeding.

A Naugatuck, Conn, letter to the
the Waterbury american says: Three
weeks ago a lady died in Strattsville,
and her body was buried in the cemetery.
about a week subsequent lady ana
gentleman called upon TIE sexton who
las charge of the cemetery, represent
ing themselves to be broGher and sister
to the dead woman. They requested
the sexton to open the grave. Suppos-
ing that they wished to identify the re-
mains, this request was complied with.
The coffin was exhumed, the lid was re-
moved, and the two parties stepped for
ward, and, to the establishment of the
sexton, proceeded to lift the corpse from
the coffin. Having accomplished this,
they made minute examination of the
shroud and grave clothing, carefully re-
moving every pin which was used in
fastening the clothes. These, together
with a finger ring which they removed
from finger of the corpse were thrown
far off into the surrounding snow. Then,
after rolling the corpse over several
times, they replaced it in the coffin,
screwed down the lid, assisted the sexton
in replacing the same in the grave, and
expressed themselves satisfied. Not a
word of explanation was given to the
bewildered sexton relative to their
strange procedure. The twain are said
to be from Hartford.

Hints for Keeping Off Wrinkles.

There is no such thing as wiping out
wrinkles. In men they are often honor
able evidence of hard mental labor; in
women they are usually the evidence of
coming age, although care and suffering
have much to do with them. Sometimes
fair foreheads are prematurely wrinkled
from nervous habit of raising the eye
brows, and from too great and too
constant pressure of the pillow on one or
both sides of the head while sleeping.
And just here comes a fact worth re-
Numbering. If the forehead has escaped
wrinkles, crows feet are premature ly
seen about the corners of the eyes. We
all see the crows feet in men and women
whose brows are smooth and young look
ing. They are the result of sleeping ON
the right and left sides. The pressure
upon the temple and cheeks leave wrin-
kles at the corners and underneath the
eyes which disappear in few hours, but
finally become so fixed that Meth err
hours nor eblutions will abate them. If
girl children were compelled to sleep on
tteir backs and continued the habit
when they reach womanhood and after
wards, they would arrive at middle life
without crows feet gathering in the
neighborhood of the eyes, and in most
cases their foreheads would be free from
even shallow burrows.

Causes of a Common Deformity.

Bowlegs and knock-knees are among
the most common physical deformities,
and the cause of such crookedness, in
either case, is usually imputed to the
afflicted ones having been put upon his
or her feet too early in babyhood. But
Manchester (Eng.) physician, DIR.
Crompton, who has investigated the mat
ter, thinks differently. He attributes
the first distortion to a habit some young
sters delight in, of rubbing the sole of
one foot against that of the other; some
will 60 to sleep with the soles together,
appearing to enjoy the contact only
when the feet are naked, not attempting
it when they are socked or slippered-
the remedy being, therefore, to keep the
soles covered. Knock-knees the doctor
ascribes to the habit of sleeping On the
side, with one knee tucked under the
hollow behind the other. He has found
that where one leg has been bowed in
ward more than the other, the patient
has always slept on one side, and the up
permost member has been the most de-
formed; the preventive is to pad the in
side of the knees, 30 as to keep them
apart, and let the limbs grow freely their
own way.

Rather Old StVle.

A distinguished Bostonian, whom his
native city and state have delighted to
honor, bethought him lately to buy a
new vehicle. A bargain offered in the
shape of a buggy which a friend was
ready to dispose of at fair price. 1t
was "second hand" to be sure, but it
was good buggy, and had been made
"'pon honor" had seen but little
service, and bore upon its panels the
initials of the original owner, "B. C.'
The trade was made and the buyer
plumed himself Dot little on having
got good thing at a low price. But
there was one member of his family who
was not altogether pleased. The son, a
dapper young man, wanted little more
" style" and would have preferred new
vehicle of fashionable build. He said
so much about it that his father at length
lost all patience, and told him seriously
that he was tired of his talk and would
hear no more about it. "But, father"
said the young man, don't you think we
had better have that B. c. painted
QUIT" 81 tell you," said his father
that | will not hear another word from
you about it. Cali right, sir" sale

course, but l thought that perhaps PEG
pie might think that was when it wa.

An Outbreak in Alaska.

The steamship California left Sitka Feb
ruary 10th and arrived in Esquimault Feb.
ruary IA. There was much excitement in
Sitka when she left, the Indians having
threatened the humiliation of the whites
The two Indians who murdered James
Brown confessed their guilt and were sur.
rendered to the collector, who placed them
on the steamer California, en- route to Port
land TO be turned over to the United States
district attorney; hence the disturbance
amongst the savages.
Three families came down on the steamer,
fleeing from danger, and storekeepers were
preparing to emigrate by the next boat.
1t is rumored that Cutting & Co.'s can
merry, about four miles from Sitka was sack
ed and burned.
Father Metropolsky and congregation, in
conjunction with the American citizens of
Sitks have petitioned the commander of
Her Msjesty's ship of war, for protection,
fearing that the United States authorities
would be too late

Trouble In the Mines,

Considerable excitement and uneasiness
exists at Brownville, and other towns along
the upper Monongahela, owing to recent
outbreaks and threatened violence by strik-
ing coal miners in that vicinity. Nearly all
the coal mines have been shut down for
some time, the original cause of the trouble
being reduction in the price paid for dig
ging. Within few days past several of the
mine owners have attempted to start up at
reduced prices with fresh hands, but the
old men have become so violent that the
new men are afraid to go to work. Sheriff
Work with posse of 230 deputy sheriffs is
encapped near the scene of trouble, and has
effected many arrests. The governor has
also placed company of militia at the
sheriff's disposal. Many of the miners have
fed to the mines where they have enough
provisions to Withstand quite siege, and
fears are felt that bloody outbreak may
occur at any moment.

The official residences of the president of
the Egyptian council and minister of finance
were surrounded on the 18th inst. by mob
of some 400 disbanded officers demanding
arrears of pay. Nuba Pasha, minister of
foreign affairs, and Rivers Wilson, minister
of finance, were insulted by the mob as
they were leaving the ministry's. The lat
ter's coat was torn. Thirty rioters entered
the building, but were expelled on the ar
rival of the khedive and foreign consuls.
The rioters then invested the ministry
The khedive harrangued the crowd and
made three futile attempts to depart in a
carriage, but was himself insulted. Mean
while his body guard arrived, fred on and
dispersed the rioters. Several arrests were
made. Nubar Pasha was shot in the hand.
His coachman and the khedive's master of
ceremonies were also wounded.

The Empress Eugene and the War.

Many have laid on the Empress Eu-
genie the responsibility of the Franco
Prussian war, and to such an extent as
lady may be held answerable for so
great an affair she no doubt was so.
When the HOhenzollern difficulty had
reached its critical pass Marshal Lebeuf,
the war minister, was summoned to the
Tuileries, and he plainly told the en-
peror and empress in private that the
army was not ready. The empress fired
up and with flashing eyes exclaimed,
GA French marshal ought to be ashamed
to use such craven language" The
marshal bowed and left the room. In
the ante-room he asked for pen and pa
per and wrote out his resignation; but
before he signed it the emperor came
out and begged him not to quarrel with
a lady, "Nhmperatrice ses nertS, were
his majesty's textual words, and he add
ed the request that the marshal should
stay at his post and do his best. This is
Lebouf's own version of the matter, and
he complains to this day that he went to
war against his will. The empress can
not be blamed, however, for having been
indignant to hear that the army was
unready. 1t speaks rather to her credit
that he trusted to her husbands ad-
visers sufficiently to think that they had
done their duty in making the troops
