A NEGRO in Paris, driven to suicide by
sheer want, wrote down his story, sesisd
1t in tin box, secured the box to Eik
parson and drowned himself in tkt 6iene.
1t appears from his statement that his
father was an African chief, tributary to
the Negus of Bbyssinia, who, having
risen in revolt against his suzerain, was
killed in fight. Two of the chiefs sons,
The elder of whom was the suicide, were
captured by the Negus, but contrived TO
escape. While wandering in the marshes
of Bar-el-Azrak the elder brother
climbed tree to survey the surround
ing country, and perceived huge boa
constructor crushing his brother to death
in its coils. Having lost his fellow fu-
gitive in this terrible manner, he strlg-
gled onward through the great swamp
for seven weeks, at length reaching the
Egyptian outposts. where he was kindly
received and forwarded to Cairo. The
Chedive not only relieved his want, but
paid his passage from Alexandria to
Paris, where, as his notebook observes,
he thought he could find living

On Education,

1t is conceded that q knowledge Of the
German language is desirable. The
same may be said of the French and
Scandinavian languages. There are sec.
tions of the United States almost en-,
tirely populated 10y immigrants from
France. Other and larger sections have
been settled by Scandinavians. If we
must have German taught in our com.
mon schools, the amcargumcnt applies
to the language of France, Sweden, Nor.
way and other countries from which We
are constantly receiving large accessions
to our heterogeneous population.
But the free schools Of this country
were never designed to afford a liberal
education. There are, in the illimitable
field of human knowledge, a vast mum
ber of desirable things with which these
schools have no Legitimate connection.
The object of free public instruction is
to fit children for citizenship and bust
ness. 1t is not right to tax all the
people for the benefit of few. Only a
limited number oil children have time
to acquire more than thorough cduca-
tion, in what are called the lower En-
glish branches, They are compelled to
leave school and go to work at fifteen or
sixteen years of age. II is not right to
tax the parents of such pupils, to give
ornamental educations to the sons
and daughters of wealthy parents -

Managing O Cow.

1t is often charged that people living
In cities are calloused and hard-hearted,
but incidents transpire daily to provo
That the contrary Is true. A Acasein point
happened yesterday morning on Gratiot
avenue. An old man was leading large,
fat cow into the city. The noise and
confusion excited her, and when he
reached Hastings street he had more than
he could do. Twenty boys at once vol
untecred to assist him without hope OF
reward and they cheerfully called 70
their assistance about half as many dogs.
The COW had made up her mind not 10
stir n foot but in less than ten minutes
the boys had run her against street car,
cleared half a block of sidewalk, driven
her in and out hardware store, pulled
hitching post cut by the roots, and
quieted her down in several other re-
spccts. Then policeman appeared and
wanted TO know why that cow didn't
move on, and while the crowd was TAX
ing n breathing spell he volunteered 10
lead her few squares, No man ever
had purer motive, and no man ever put
in five such jumps to get into "A grocery
before two horns got into him. At this
juncture n citizen came along in an open
buggy. If he had been oalloused and
hard hearted, he would have trotted past
without a care; but he was not. He
kindly offered TO hitch the cow to his
buggy and tow her anywhere within the
city limits, and after a great deal OF
trouble she was made fast. When the
horse started up it was question Of
horse versus COW; but the cow con-
cluded to go. She, however, differed as
to the direction; and when the rope
tautened, the buggy was slowed around,
The hind wheels came down with crash,
and the horse disappeared around the
corner with the fore wheels and the box.
The cow then made off toward home
Mt a gaIlop, and her dazed owner was
offered advice rs 10 how TO catch her by
crowd Of more than two hundred pcO-
pie. Does this look n if we passed sOr-
row and misfortune without sigh?-

Edison's Deserted Village.

Confident as Mr.. Edison appears,
however, the lamps used 10y him in his
experiments months ago still stand grim
and silent witnesses of his failure at that
time, and the people living in the neigh
borhood do not entertain very great
hopes of his success in the future. Al
though Edison claims To have perfected
his light, he has not thought it incum-
bent upon him to illuminate the neigh.
borhood of his residence with its rays,
and the few residents outside of the
professors employees speak very dispar
agingly of his ability 10 do 90. Oil is in
general use and is likely to remain so.
Although Mr.. Edison claims TO have loo
men employed at his works, only one
man could be seen in the workshop in
which MIR. Edison received the reporter.
Several buildings were grouped in the
vicinity that were pointed out as work.
