LATER NEWS.

THE Supreme Court OF Indiana has
overthrown the Constitutional amendm ents
supposed to have been adopted at the April
election. One Of the principal reasons given
for this decision is that the act submitting the
amendments was defective in not providing
for the counting of the votes in the State, SO
that the courts could determine whether .
Constitutional majority of all the electors
had voted for them. One of the amendments
thus declared void changes the time for hold
ing the State election from October to No
vember, but by the decision Indiana remains
an October State. Judges Scott and Niblack
dissented from the opinion Of the majority.

Among the fifty million stars that
glimmer in the armament, there are
about dozen stars visible in our lati-
tube that have a parallax ranging from q
tenth to half second It would be
natural to suppose that the brightest
stars are the nearest, but this is far from
being the case. The nearest star in the
northern heavens is double star of the
fifth magnitude in the Swan known as
61 Cygni The brilliant Sirius is nearly
twice as far away. The nearest star in
the whole heavens is Alpha Centauri, a
bright star near the south pole. This
has parallax Of nine-tenths of a second,
and is twice as near as any other star.
Its distance is computed at more thar
two hundred thousand times our dis.
lance from the sun, or twenty millions Of
millions of miles. If such be the incon.
ceivable distance separating us from the
nearest star, what idea can the infinite
mind form of the immensely of space in

As to Dogs.
Iron the New York Sun. |

Every one is familiar with the charac-
ter and appearance of the Newfoundland
dog, but few are aware that it is popu-
lar mistake to suppose that to secure a
good specimen of these mobiles it is ne
cessary to send to the country from which
they are named. In point of fact the
pure breed is almost extinct in New
foundland, and there are to be found
there now in their stead a race of mean
looking, shabby, cowardly, thievish mon
grels, the degenerate descendants of a
once noble race, and ar different from
them as the modern Greeks from the he
roic Greeks of Homer. Neglect, i'll
usage, starvation and hard work have
wrought the change. Rather more than
two years ago an effort was made to in
troduce another breed, the celebrated
Leonberg dog, the finest in the world O
development of and a decided improve
ment on the original Newfoundland. The
breeder Of this race is Count Esseg, of
Leonberg, Wurtemberg, and hitherto
his endeavors have been crowned with
success

A Pretty Sofa Cushion.
From the New England Homestead

To knit simple but very effective sofa
cushions have a pair of bone knitting
needles and double zephyr wool of three
shades, say handsome shade of red and
white and black, or you may have French
gray or a bright crimson, or any other
shades that may suit your fancy. Cast
on thirteen stitches. Knit across once
plain, make one at the beginning Of the
next row by putting your worsted over
your needle and knitting six stitches
plain, then knit two together and knit
the remaining stitches plain; repeat this
last row continually. This is all the
pattern, and it is knit in rows as long as
you may desire. The length of the row
will decide the number of rows You
will need to make it of good proportions.
Join the rows by crocheting together
with plain crochet stitch in old gold and
black.

What was Found in an Acapulco Shark S
Nav
(From the San Francisco Chronicle.l

(From the San Francisco Chroniclel
Dr.. Swan, the surgeon of the Pacific
Mail steamship Colima, which arrived
in this port a few days ago from the
isthmus, reports an incident on the trip
worthy of mention. He states that
while the Colima was lying at Acapulco,
on the trip up, she anchored one day
close to the steamship China. Some Of
the hands on the latter baited hook
and caught shark of the man-eater va
riety about fifteen feet long. The shark
was pulled up and cut open, and i'll the
belly was found q human arm entire,
just as it had been torn by the devouring
monster from the shoulder. There were
also found in the NAV of the shark the
heel and toes of human foot. The re-
mains had evidently been swallowed but
short time. The arm was the left, and
upon it were plainly visibly the initials
tattooed in India ink, "a. I'll. c."
About ten days previous to the taking of
the sharks a sailor from a British brig,
then lying in the harbor, while under
the influence of liquor, fell overheard
and was lost. 1t is supposed that the
shark had been feeding upon the body a
short time before his capture. San Jose
Joe, the monster shark Of San Jose de
Guatemala, was recently seen by the
captain of the China. This shark has
for many years been the terror Of the
coast from San Jose de Guatemala
to Punta Arena. He has been so
frequently seen that he is as familiar
to the mariners of the coast as it's
most perilous headlands. He is said to
be over forty feet in length, and is ex-
tremely ferocious, human kind being his
favorite prey. Capt. Seabury, of the
China, is ready to swear to forty-two
feet and over, having once seen Joe pass
ing behind his vessel, which is forty-two
feet in the beam, and the head and tail
of the shark extended past either side of
the vessel. The captain of the South
Carolina and Capt. Whiteberry bear
testimony also to the sharks being over
forty feet long. In the last few years
"coe, as he is known along the coast,
has de7oured half adozen men, and some
years ago the Guatemalian government
offered reward of $500 to any one who
would Kill the devourer. He has been
shot couple of times and harpooned
thrice, but survived these assaults and
still roams his old haunts looking for

Luck.
IFrom the Saturday Review.]

1t should be remembered that luck,
like water, finds it's level in the long
run. How often one hears man ex-
claiming against "my LUCK" 81 am
never lucky at cards." or, GO have put
ten years running into Derby lottery,
and have never won anything yet, .
quite oblivious Of the fact that numbers
of people have been competing with him
on perfectly equal terms. The true
answer to all theories about fortune at
cards is, of course, that in due time one
color or number will win just as often as
another, and that every player in games
OF pure chance is, subsequently, ON the
same footing.

A CHANGE

With wooing voice and dazzling smiles she glides,
Upon the fowery paths we long to follow,
Her glory on the hills tall crest abides;
Her music murmurs from the bosky hollow.
She pours her yigor in the eager brain,
She nerves the head with loss and wrong to cope,
We mock the warning voice of change or pain,
Tracing the footsteps of the angel hope.
But when the weary height seems almost won,
And the old valley that we loved of yore
Lies far below beneath the setting sun,
The radiance lights the golden head no more;
The soft wings dcoop, the ringing accents falte-,
We cling around her feet, we worship yet.
And even as we kaeel, we see her alter,
And in her place, back pointing, stands Regret.
