| Yesterday (Thursday) morning Mr..
David Crosit, after a long illness,
passed to his long home, and is at rest
forever. His funeral will take place
on Saturday morning at half past ten
o'clock, at the family residence. The
Masonic Fraternity are invited to at
tend in a body. Mr.. Crosit was one of
the. earliest settlers of Ken0sEa,. and
has ever. been a prominent, useful and
much respected citizen. A suitable
obituary will appear in these columns
next week.
Joseph Schanzer, who, it will be re-
membered, is confined in the Jail to
await his trial for assault with intent
to kill, upon Samuel Waller, at the
Poor House on the Island in the sum-
mer, has been making preparations to
end the matter himself. On Monday
morning the Sheriff found in Schan-
zer's bed rope about ten feet long
made from the sheets torn in pieces
and twisted together. This rope had
at one end slip moose all arranged to
90 around the neck. 1t was evidently
the intention of Schanzer to use the
rope in the commission of suicide, had
not the Sheriff made the timely discov-
cry. Schanzer has told other inmates
in the Jail that he intended to make
away with himself.
The lady lay in her bed, her couch so
warm and soft,
But her sleep was restless and broken
| still by turning oft and oft.
Twas indigestion that troubled her
(pickled salmon and toasted cheese,)
With cramps that almost doubled her,
But in Spring Blossom she'd find ease.

NEW YORK must have quicker COM
munication with its suburbs. The thou
sands of business men aad women who
work all day in its stores and Offices
must be able to reach their homes in
Harlem. Brooklyn. or Jersey City in
thirty minutes from Broadway To
meet the wants of the upper part of
New York the elevated roads were con-
structed. They ara the perfection Of
railway traveling-for the passenger
smooth. free from noise and dust. be-
sides their wonderful rapidity Of transit.
Within year it il expected the East
River bridge will be open to the pass
age OF the great army Of people who
spend their days in New York and their
nights in BROOKLYN. The latter city
has been fifty called "a clearinghouse
for New YORK" Four hundred men
are at work on the approaches to this
bridge. They are massive granite
arches, supporting the road-bed, rising
gradually. till it crosses at a dizzy
height the river below; the bridge is so
high that most ships may pass under il
with top-gallant maSts standing. IL
would not do that the finest harbor in
the world should be DISTRACTED by
bridge at the water level. Governor
Cornell has signed bill appropriating
two million five hundred thousand dol
lars to finish the most wonderful sus-
pension bridge the world has yet seen.
The third means of communication
now being pushed rapidly forward is
tunnel for trains under the Hudson
River to jersey City. There are two
tunnels for that Part which lies under
the rivers bed. and they unite in one
at each end. This double tunnel is lined
with iron plates. and faced with brick
three feet thick. The clay exoavated
from the tunnel is used to make the
bricks to line it, Of which more than
two thousand are required for each run
ming foot Of wall. The interior will be
painted white, and lighted with gas.
The estimated expense of this work is
ten million of dollars. The work goes
on day and night; three gangs of men
being employed eight hours each. thus
accomplishing three days work every
twenty four hours. All the work is
done by the electric light. and thus one
great invention helps another The
total length of the work will be two and
half miles. including the approaches.
though only about mile of this dis
lance is under the bed of the river.
When it is done four hundred trains
per day can pass safely, delivering pas
sengers and freight in the very heart Of
New York. Youths Companion.

DIR. Holmes ON Poetry to Order.

Some time ago, says the Reading
(Pa-) Netos, Miss Annie Lawrence, one
OF the younger pupils OF the High
School, wrote Oliver Wendell Holmes,
stating that the Old South Literary So
ciety was about to discuss his life and
works. and asking if he could send a
little poetical contribution for the occa-
sion. The reply of the genial author
is very characteristic, and we repro
duce it:

- So, my dear young lady. viii only

The Art Of Managing Husband.

Ir is no uncommon thing to hear it
remarked: "Ah, yes, there's Mrs.
Lustre. Her husband imagines that he
has her in complete subsection, but
tell you that little woman manages him
beautifully. While he stra;ghtens him
self up and swe!ls with mannish pride
of proprietorship, she goes right on in
her quiet, comical way. doing as she
likes. and he never suspects it. He
wouldn't believe it if you were to tell it
him."
dare say both Mr. and Mrs. Lustre
are very happy. l know they have no
clashings, and so far rs outward APP
pearances are sign of happiness their
home is in many respects a model. l
have sometimes been amused at the
grand condescension with which he as
sents to her wishes. He is really
good and generous fellow at heart. and
it is satisfaction TO him to know that
his wife regards him of enough import
ance to express her intentions in the
form of deferential requests. 1t is
harmless kind of sauce. with
which she spices his daily dish
of natural vanity. We all love,
more or less, to feed on it. and when it
is prepared by SO careful and conscien-
tious caterer as know Mrs. Lustre to
be think l should relish it myself. II
l know men, there is little hazarded in
saying that where their relations to
women are concerned, nothing else so
stirs the amiable in them Is little ju-
dicious concession to their supposed SUI
periority. The ugly man will receive
from woman a compliment on the
point of personal comeliness, though he
knows it to be untrue, when he would
laugh at man for saying the same
thing to him. Sensible men are aware
that beauty is no part of their endow-
ment, but compliment is honey on the
lips of woman, and while the rcmem-
brance of it fingers to the taste the
dear conceit will make them all Malvo-
lios. The most practical of men. if put
to his confession, would hardly deny
this impeachment. If women with
husbands were all discreet they
would know exactly when to
dip their lips in honey. That
woman wtO knows how to stir her hus-
band's pride in himself may command
him in all things; but she who is igno-
rant of that lesson in tact, or refrains
from applying it, must take her chances
with the crowd in MANY things wherein
she might be chief The crowd is emil
nently democratic in its measurements
of men. and in it they must stand or
fall according to their valor. At home
the man plays aristocrat, and l see
many good reasons why his wife should
foster the fancy. 1t is a pleasant thing
to hear said of woman that she thinks
her husband is a very superior being.
He is pretty certain to know that he is
not, but the fact that his wife thinks so
has tendency to stiffen his self-re-
spect. That is a good domestic fruit
tree, and advise that it be kept well
trimmed. Here and there little graft
of loving flattery would improve the
flavor Of the fruit.-Signor Mr., IN De-
troll Free Press.

An American Honeymoon.

A FRIEND of mine was introduced
the other day to very charming young
American lady at Geneva. With that
naivete and frankness characteristic of
Yankee womankind, she soon informed
him that she was spending her honey
moon in Europe. THAT must be very
delightful" exclaimed my friend.
YES" was her reply, II enjoy it i'm
mensely." Then it occurred to him that
he had seen nothing of the lady's
husband. "Your husband is not here
to-day, then?" he added. He saws he
shall not easily forget the comical ex-
preston of amusement and surprise
upon her face rs she answered. with
merry laugh: My husband herel Why
he is not with ME! l left him in New
York" This idea of honeymoon is
unique. wonder if the husband was
enjoying his honeymoon with equal
zest on the other side of the Atlantic?
Perhaps he was--London Society.
