THE BLUE GLASS HERO.
Aud How he Attempted to Teach
David Benedict a Little Trick.

David Benedict of Harristown, West
chester 'county, is a hale, hearty far
mer. He was walking through Chat
ham street yesterday, when James w.
Ward and William Farnham, two con-
fidence men, approached him. Ward,
handing David Benedict a circular
from tea company, remarked that If
Mr.. Benedict would only take some of
that tea with him to Westchester they
would pay him well for it. David Ben
edict inquired what kind of tea they
were selling They invited Mr.. Bene
diet to accompany them to a saloon in
City Hall place, and there they gave
him cup of tea, which not only nau-
seated him but went to his head.
While sitting there a man entered,
who represented himself as the "Blue
Glass Hero of Kentucky" He was
loud in his announcement of how he
had beaten some of the smartest
thieves in New York. He drew from
his pocket larke roll of bills and three
cards. Then he explained to his friends
how he had won the great roll of money
by a trick Mr.. Benedict was induced
to try and learn the game. He drew
from his wallet sos, which he held close
" III his hand. He was not to be
caught easily, but was willing to wager
if the game was explained to him.
While he was watching the blue Glass
Hero of Kentucky" shutting the cards
and showing how the trick was done,
Jame W Ward snatched the sos and
attempted to escape David Benedict
is a burly man, with great muscle and
strong lungs. He shouted for the po-
lice, and hung on to the ceat-tails of
Ward and Farnham. The Blue Glass
Hero from Kentucky" escaped. Dir.
Benedict managed to hold to the others
until Policeman Leahy came up, who
took the two sharpers into custody.
The examination will take place to-day
at the Tombs police court.

Comical Test for Trickina.
British Medical journal.

A Holstein peasant. uninstructed in
microscopical research, and not pos
sessing the requisite instruments of pre-
cision, has devised for himself a new
test for the presence of trichina in
pork. When he killed a pig he was
careful to send portion of it-a ham
or a sausage-to his pastor, and then
waited the consequences for fourteen
DAYS. Ifhis pastor remained healthy,
then he felt perfectly easy in his mind,
and well assured that his pig fulfilled
the requisite conditions of soundness of
food, and he proceeded, to dispose of
it accordingly in his own family. This
ingenious method of research has not
been considered satisfactory by the dis
trict physician.

Torture at Harvard University.
Cincinnati Gazette,

A report has come to us from the
city of Cambridge, which we trust is
untrue, that the Chinese instructor at
Harvard college, dignitary who
dresses in silk and is the author of q
volume of poems on which no Ameri-
can critic has been able to pass an adj
verse judgment, since there is no west
ern scholar who can interpre its tea
chest hieroglyphics-is subjecting his
little daughter to the foot-binding pro-
cess, fearful torture in itself, and re-
sulting in making the child cripple
for life. We have been told that the
screams of the poor child have been
heard by the neighbors.
The operation has been often des-
cIibed. Bandages ten feet long and two
feet wide are laid on the inside of the
instep and carried over the four small
toes and around the heel, drawing the
two extremities nearer each other,
bullying the instep, and making deep
hollow in the sole underneath. Once a
month or oftener the bandage is re-
moved and the feet are soaked and
kneaded. Pulverized alum is put OH to
prevent the sloughing and putresence
which often occur. Sometimes a toe
or more drops off The pain, which is
intense. continues about a year. then
gradually diminishes, and by the end
of the second year the feet are dead
and painless. During the first twelve
month the poor girl sleeps only on her
back, lying crosswise the bed, with her
feet hanging down over the side, so
that the edge of the bedstead presses on
the tendons and nerves behind the
knees in such a way as to dull the pain
somewhat There she swings her feet
and means, and even in the coolest
weather cannot wrap herselfin a cover
let, because every return of warmth to
her limbs increases the aching. The
sensation is said to be like that of
puncturing the joints with needles.
While the binding is continued, as
ever after, the feet are useless for pur-
poses Of locomOtion. With dead feet,
only two inches long, the woman thus
"beautitied' is wretched cripple. AS
we have said, it is reported that the
learned instructor above mentioned is
thus treating his daughter. He has re-
marked, we are informed, that were he
to liye permanently in the United States
he would not bind her feet, but he ex-
poets to return to China in a year or
two, and were she then to have natural
feet her social prospects wovld be ru-
med. This may be true, but for the
present he is living i'll Massachusetts,,
and under Massachusetts laws, and
those laws should be invoked to pro-
tect the wretched victim of Oriental
folly.
