BAD CONDUCT As general thing the
soldiers Of the 2lst Infantry are well be-
haved set Of men, orderly and sober, but
there are about ten men in the companies
stationed at Vancouver Barracks who dis
grace the regiment, and would be a disgrace
to any town in private life. Last week.
after payday, they all went on grand
drunk, and just made Vancouver howl in
way that would have shamed Rome The
balance of the men in the regiment are rs
much opposed to these disorderly proceed
ings as the citizens of Vancouver. and con-
denim them as severely. The citizens are
powcrless to prevent this disorderly con
duct, as the Legislature saw fit years ago to
deprive our city of all judicial procedure.
and we have nothing left but the right Of
expressing our opinion on the subject.

A COMPLETE WoRK-Some weeks ago we
received a copy OF Geo. p. Rowell & Co. 3
American Newspaper Directory, and having
examined it at our leisure, as well as having
turned often to it's pages for necessary refer
ence, we can now give an intelligent opinion
of it's merits. This extensive work gives a
list and the particulars concerning every
newspaper, magazine and periodical pub
lished in the United States and Canada, and
is valuable as the only complete list in ex-
istence. In addition it gives classified lists
of publications, as to news, religious, scien-
tfic, agricultural, mining, etc, thus making
it valuable to the library and counting room
as well as an encyclopedia to newspaper
men. 1t is the mort complete and valuable
work of the kind ever issued In 1881
Messrs. Rowell & Co. will issue new cdi-
ton, now in course of preparation.

One of the extraordinary and
unaccountable panics which every
now and then break out in differ
ent parts of India appears to be
now prevailing in Madras city
A rumor has got abroad, and is
firmly believed in by the lower
classes of the natives, that the gov
ernment is about to sacrifice a
number of human beings in order
to insure the safety of the new har-
bor works, and has ordered the
police to seize victims in the streets.
So thoroughly is the idea implant-
ed that people are afraid to ven
ture out after nightfall. There was
a similar scare in Calcutta some
seven or eight years ago, when the
Hooghly Bridge was being con-
structed. The natives then got
hold of the idea that Mother Gan
ges, indignant at being bridged,
had nc last consented to submit to
the insult on the condition that
each pier of the structure was
founded on a layer Of children's
heads.

Spokane Falls, Washington Ter
ritory, claims to have a medical
lake a mile and a half long that
would have satisfied even Ponce
de Icons search for the fountain
of youth. The water is clear and
of a dark color, and, besides cur
ing skin diseases of men and
beasts, lays out nervous troubles,
rheumatism, paralysis, and similar
ailments. The water has not been
analysed, but tastes Of salt and
borax, is as buoyant as the Dead
Sea, and the only animal life it sus-
tains is a species Of jelly fish. The
lake has no visible outlet, and, al
though fed by several small streams
never increases or decreases in
size. In the slightest breeze the
water lashes into a foam which
makes a superior soap, and almost
anything can be cleansed in the
lake much better than by the most
powerful chemicals.

What Is in a NlckIe.

1t may not be generally known that
we have, in the nickle five cent piece of
out coinage, key to the tables of linear
measures and weights. The diameter of
this coin is two centimeters and the
weight is five grammes. Five of them
placed in a row will, of course, give the
length of the decimeter, and two of
them will weigh decagramme. AS the
kiloiter is a cubic meter, the key to the
measure of length is also the key to
measures of capacity. Any person,
therefore, who is fortunate enough to
own FIVE cent nickle may carry in his
pocket the entire metric system of
weights and measures.
The New Bloomfield, Pa. times. (New Bloomfield, Pa.) 1877-188?, 1880-03-16
Not as 1t Was.

Thereis creed abroad that young
man is better alone, free from all incum-
brance of wife or children but in the
old times 1t was not so. Then children
were esteemed a heritage and gift that
cometh from the Lord - now, selfish
luxury, worldliness and the love of out
ward show have brought our young men
-ay, and some women too-to such
pass that they feel, nay, openly declare,
every child born to them is new enc
my; and marriage, instead of being
honorable " TO all, is folly, a deri-
sion, or dread. Why is this ? And is
it the mems fault, or the women's?
Both, perhaps; yet think chiefly the
women's. Feeble, useless, halfeducated;
taught to believe that ignorance is
amusing and helplessness attractive; no
wonder the other sex shrinks from TAX
ing upon itself, not help, but burden
charming enough before marriage-but
after? The very man who at first ex-
ulted in his beautiful ornamental wife.
his sweet, humble Circassian slave, will
by.and-by be the first to turn around
and scorn her.

SUNDAY READING.
Little Duties.


A letter carrier in one of our large
cities, few months ago, found or
reaching the post office, after long
round of delivery, letter In his bag
that he had over looked. 1t would have
taken him half an hour TO return and
deliver 1t. He was very tired and hum
CRY. The letter was an ordinary unim-
portant looking mlsslve. He thrust 1t
into his pocket and delivered 1t on his
first round next day.
What consequences followed For
want of that letter great firm had fail
ed to meet their engagements, their
notes had gone to protest; mill closed,
and hundreds of poor workmen were
thrown out of employment.
The letter-carrier himself was dis
charged for his oversight and neglect
His family suffered during the winter
for many of the necessarles of life, but
his loss was of small account compared
to the enormous amount OF misery caus-
ed by his single failure in duty.
Another case: mechanic who had
SSSh ONb vi WOlh ~ iOhB Oiui0 III new
York went last September to collect
small sum due to him. The gentleman
who owed it, being annoyed at some tri-
file, irrltably refused the money. The
man went TO his wretched home, and
maddened by the sight of his hungry
wife and children, went out to the back
yard and hanged himself.
The next day an old employer sent to
offer him permanent situation. Here
was life lost and family left paupers
because bill of dollar or two was not
paid at the right time.
The old Spanish proverb says, There
is no such thing as trifle in the world. -
When we think how inextricabIy the
lives Of all mankind are tangled togeth-
er, 1t seems as If every word or action
moved lever which set In motion a
gigantic machinery, whose effort is
wholly beyond our contributor this
reason II for no other, let us be careful
TO perform promptly and well the duties
of life-even the most trivial Youths
Companion.

The Errors of History.

One by one our illusions vanish.
Notwithstanding the fact that Captain
Kidd had been held up for nearly two
hundred years in songs and ballads as
bloodthlrsty sea-robber, and that he was
actually convicted of murder at the Old
Bailey in London and hung in chains, it
is now alleged by a gentlemen who
has carefully examined the whole mat
ter, that Kidd, so fer from being himself
a pirate, was brave and loyal seaman,
who faithfully endeavored TO suppress
freebooters in the East Indies.

Ye Are My Witnesses.

6 Ye are my Witnesses" saith the
Lord, " Ye shall be witnesses unto
me-" said the Saviour on Mount Oh
ivet in his last utterance before the
ascension, both in Jerusalem, in
all Juda, and iu Samaria, and unto the
uttermost parts of the EARTH" This ev-
identity applies to believers, and through
all time and in every part of the earth,
