There has been an extraordinary increase
of suicide in Switzerland. In 1876 there
were $40 suicides; in 1877 500; an 1873, 642
and in 1879, 701. This list gives one in every
1000 of the population. The hard times are
probably the cause.
Mr.. Elliot, of Abbeymains, Scotland,

Jack Everman, bank burglar. left So 900

the property.

New York has more fun out of its transit
lines than any other city in the world. On
the street railroads a highwayman enters
the cars at convenient intervals and robs the
passengers; on the elevated railroads they
get man into the Enclosure, and then the
train jumps out and leaves him. He grabs
the hand-rail and is jerked down on some
body's head below. a man can ride down
town in the street cars and be robbed, and
go back on the elevated train and be manned
for life. Thus do the New York lines COM

The financial statistics OF the 0ber-Am-

OF the village people for their Passion

$50, 500. OF this sum 10000 marks would
defray expenses and be devoted to certain
communal purposes, and the rest be divided
among the players several hundred innum-

all Mayer, who had the chief role, got
1000 marks, not a very extravagant stipend
for thirty-nine representations. By far the
richest source of revenue, however. to the
Villagers, was the expensive, if rather pris-
tine, hospitality they extended to visitors.

A FABLE FOR FARMERS.

There was man who owned q mule.
Quite asinine in feature.
With all mules queer tricks and ways
A very stubborn creature
That mule he harnesed with his horse,
When pleasant was the weather,
Exnecfing that the two would plough
His stubble field together.
The horse went steadily enough.
And all his work WAS thorough;
The mule would never pull, unless
Allowed to boss the furrow.
soon Of that mules offensive ways
The farmer had a token;
The plough was run against stump,
The plough-share badly broken.
How very strange" the farmer said.
That such critier bosses,
u spite of all that can do,
Ny strong and steady hOssesl'
lie drove them both upon bridge,
And put them to their pae0s-
But still that very stubborn mule
Would get outside the traces.
1T last the farmer let him loose,
And said Go now or neyer!"
The mule then made his final bolt,
And tumbled IN the river.

On these beautiful moonlight
nights, when the gay young
Troubadores visit the homes Of
their young lady friends, dis
coursing sweet music for their
cdification, then pdter .famiIiaS
arises, and peeps through the
lattice viewing the moonlight
scenery and drinking in the
sweetsound-for you must know
that he has an car for music
then the band strikes up the
Girl l left behind me- he com
mences skipping and dancing
through the room, his neither
garments gyrating through the
air, his better half peeping
from under the coverlid rcligi-
ously watching him with one
eye; in his capers he falls over
the historical rocking chair, she
cries out "stop your nonsense,
Murray,the neighbors will think
You crazy," then it is that he is
reminded that his greatest forte
is in selling the bay state shoe
d leather boots and shoes, every
pair warranted to neither rip nor
leak until WORE out, his ready
made clothing and ladies' hats
ut cost, his cottonades and
Jeans at ten TO twenty cents per
yard, the greatest drive ever of
fered to the people of this coun-
". Then take a look at his
carpet exhibitor and see the
different beautiful patterns rep
resenting a stock Of twenty
thousand dollars worth of car
pets, his mems and boys wool,
saxony and fur hats bought by
the case with trade discount off,
enabling him TO sell them fifteen
per cent. cheaper than is bought
by the dozen from the jobber.
BY these things (even it he is
not an elegant dancer) he is
enabled TO pay the fiddler.
