Found.

In October, 1876, Mrs. Jeffreys. with
he son George, fifteen months old, was
visiting friend in New York City. On
the 18th day of that month the little
fellow slipped out doors and was lost.
Detectives were hired, money spent,
and everything that could be thought
of was done to find the child, but with
out avail. 1t made sensation for
day as "Another Charley Ross Case"
in the papers and was then forgotten by
every one but the distracted parents.
Harrison Merrill is printer, brother
of Mrs Jeffreys, and he worked in the
Advocate Office in Waverly. About a
month ago as he was standing at his
case child four or five years of age
came and stood for an instant in the
doorway of the room where he was
working. The little face haunted him,
and he at length went out and tried to
talk with the boy who owned it. He
could get no replies except in broken
unintelligible German dialect, He
couldn't drive from his mind the like
ness that the little one bore to his sis
ter. He followed him and found he be-

maker who on being threatened with
Imprisonment acknowledged that he
found the child in the streets of New
York in October, 1876, in the same To-

and with the same clothes as described
by the parents. The mother recog-
nized her child before a word was
spoken about its recovery.--FreeP Press.

During the few past weeks only a

has occurred in the Capital. Some five

and remarked that it was customary to
apologize when one happened to jostle
anybody. in passing. The offender
sharply rejoined that he would willing

transported with rage, struck the man
such heavy blow with it on the head
that he fell dead on the spot. The Off

commander of the regiment to which
Baron Rosen belonged. That gentle

was very concise. Gourko drew his
pen through the report presented to him
by the commander of the regiment, and
added to it the following verdict:
"Let Baron Rosen be pardoned, and
the dead man be forgotten"
In this unexpected manner the mat
ter was dismissed and the papers were
forbidden to mention the affair further.
Nevertheless, Baron Rosen deemed it
impolitic to retain his commission in the
Russian army, and rendered his resig-

found that the maker of the little cart
passed year in collecting sardine
cases, and, having amassed large
quantity, commenced making these
carts, the raw material of which cost
him so little. This toy sold in immense

The method adopted in Germany
Tor preventing the slipping and falling
OF horses on the public road is as UNIQUE
as 1T is simple. The smith when finish
ing the shoe punches a hole in two
ends; as soon as the shoe is made he
taps in screw thread and screws into
the shoe, when on the horses foot, a
sharp-pointed stud an inch in length.
With shoes thus fitted the horse can
travel securely over the worst possible
road. When the horse comes to the
stable the pointed stud is unscrewed
and button screwed in; no damage
can then happen to the horse, and the
screw holes are thus prevented from
filling up.

There was not line to tell
