A remarkable case of persistent liquor sell ing and fine and sentence under the Vermont law has recently occurred in that State. AL bert J. Kittredge, of Newport was convicted at the recent term of the Orleans County court and sentenced to hard labor in the State workhouse for 946 days. The prisoner is about 35 years of age, and helpless crip- ple When only 15 years of age he suffered from an attack of rheumatic fever, which caused justification of nearly every joint in his body. For twenty years he has been cripple. For several years past he has been able to be placed in wagon and ride about the country with boy driver, and is thought to have smuggled and peddled out liquor enough to fill a small lake. Latterly his health has been poor, and he has lain upon cot constructed for him, containing drawers underneath to hold bottles, and he sold liquor while unable to move any portion of his person, excepting his head and neck. He was taken into court on this cot by the off cers, and pleaded guilty to twenty first of- fences, amounting to $20O and costs. He was taken on his cot to the workhouse, at an expense to the State of $65. While on his way, at Bellows Falls, he was noticed by one of the directors of the State prison, an inti- mate friend of Governor Farnam, who be- coming interested in the unfortunate mans condition, offered to use his influence with the Governor to obtain for him a pardon if he would promise to quit the business of sell ling rum. The prisoner firmly declined to give any such assurances, and the director left him to his fate.

The shipping merchants and members of the Maritime Exchange of New York city are united in a movement to secure the passage of a bill in the Legislature to repeal the com pu1sory pilotage law so far as it favors the Hell Gate pilots. A statement has been pub ished and circulated in pamphlet form ex- posing the evils, of the system. It is claimed that the active force of Hell Gate pilots is between thirty and thirty-fve and that the men are so stationed that not vessel escapes their notice. An imaginary hne is drawn at the Sound end of the passage, from Execu- tion Rock Light to Lands Point, and at the other end from the bluff at the lower point of Wards Island between these bounda- ries is pilotage ground. The ves- sells generally come within pilotage lines in groups of four or six, lowed by a tugboat, and as they almost invariably refuse the prof fered services of the pilots, they are obliged to pay the half pilotage made legal by the statute. AS the pilots give their collectors in New York city B per cent. for collecting, most of them prefer to settle for cash on the deck of the vessel at from one-half to two thirds of the amount, giving the captains re- ceipted bills for the full sum, thus affording

A Bioodhound,s Gratitude.

The Detroit Free Press tells a re-
markable story of q bloodhound's
gratitude at Andersonville. TIE pris-
oners were allowed to go out in squads
strongly guarded, to collect 1rewood.
One day It was the hero's turn to go,
and for the first time since his impris-
onment he caught sight of Colonel
Catchem," the big bloodhound. Tho
Michigander noticed that the dog
limped painfully on one of his fore
feet, but gave the matter no special
attention until, after being out for
half an hour, he sat down to rest ncar
one of the guards. The dogapproach-
cd the guard as if to ask some favor,
but was repulsed with an oath and a
threatened blow. He then saulked
around and came near tho prisoner,
run into his foot. With a little coax
ing he got the dog near and finally
pulled out the nail, and the animal
ran away seemingly pleased. Twelve
days after that, one night, about mid
night, a tunnel was ready. Tho pris-
oner was a long time getting clear OF
the neighborhood, and weak and
starved as he was he was not more
than two miles from the stcckaGc
when day broke, and ''Coloncl Catch
en-" was put on his track. When he
heard the, hound coming he looked
for a Suitable trcc.to climb, but failed
to find one. Armed with a club, he
took his stand, and determined 10
make a fight for it. The dog recog-
nized the man, and began exhibiting
every sign of friendship. After a few
minutes the pursuers were heard in
the distance. The dog at once trottcl
off in that direction, and was shortly
baying and leading them over a ficti-
tious trail. The prisoner pushed
ahead for half an hour, and was then
rejoined by the dog, who kept either
close to his heels or just ahead of him
all day, and lay beside him in the
woods OF night. This position Of
guardian or companion he maintained
until toward the night of the second
day, when he returned to the stockade.
The prisoner was then thirty miles
away, but on the fifth morning he
was recaptured. When he returned
the hound met and carcssed him. From
that hour to the close of the war the
dog would not take the trail of an es
Gaping prisoner.

Afraid Of Lightning.

London Telegraph.
Science, with all its confidence, has
provided no safeguards against thui-
dcr-storms. 1t can warn, but it can
not protect. Conductors may happi-
ly carry Off the electric current, but
they cannot sccur us from danger
The timid may be told emphatically
to stand in the middle of the room, to
avoid f~ircplaccs and brass ornaments,
or to roll themselves up in feather
beds or hcarth-rugs but these pre-
cautions will be of little avail if
houses, as at Manchester, 'v:nbl,
down and bury all alike, the terrified
and the bold, in q common ruin.--
There have been in all ages popular
superstitions having for their object
to avert the dangers of thunder and
lightning. The Thracian soldiers
took up their bows and arrows and
fired into the clouds to drive away
the storm, and il was considered nec-
cssary to erect a cross on st. Paufs
steeplc, filed with the relics of saints,
in order to free the city from all dam
ger of destructive tempests. Constant
to the belief that an evil spirit ragged
in the storm, it was q custom in old
times, rs we'll in England as in Franco
and Germany to ring church bells ia
order to protect the frightened inhab-
itants. When they rang out the great
bell at the abbey of St. German, in
Paris, or chimed i'll the tower of St.
Adclon, in Mnlmcsbury abbey, the
faithful assisted the bcll-ringcrs with
prayers, and helped to stay the storm.
Many moro homely charms against
thunder and lightning exist to this
day in some parts of England. The
curious herb known as the houselcck,
growing Oh the housctop of rustic Cot
tagcs, is supposed to be as valuable q
prcservative as any scientific lightning
conductor of approved pattern. Peas
ants, true to tue faith of their fore
fathers, still carry beneath their
waistcoats scraps of bay leaf or laurel
rs an umulct-a custom as old as, if
not older than, tho days of Tiberius
Caesar. We may have got beyond the
superstition that allowed a dead man
killed by a storm to lie where he fell,
in order that tho spot might be fenced
about and a sheep promptly sacrificed
OH q rude altar: but it would 10
strange if country folk did not still
place a cold iron bar on beer Dslre.s
to prevent the liquor from turning
sour during a thunderstorm; and
that swans eggs are only Matched du-
ring q loud peal of thunder is o be-
lief yet cherished by those who watch
this bird for signs of atmospherical
electricity as closely and confidently
as theNlisten to the scream of a pea
cock to Dctoken rain. Countless expo
riments have been tried to ascertain
tho scientific causes of o thunder
storm and to determine its proper
meaning, from the time when Frank
lin sent up his silk kite attached to
the dry hempen cord and narrowly
escaped the danger Of drawing fire
from the heavens, until the days when
electric researches were checked by
the death of Prof. Richmann, Of st.
Petersburg, who drew SO much cleo
tricity from tho thunder-cloud that
be was promptly killed on the spot.

HAPPY RESULTS

which / had experienced. Not only
this but many, who were not conscious
of any physical trouble, who, at my
suggestion, began the use of the rem
dy which had saved my life, found
their health steadily improving and
their strength continually increasing.
So universal, where used, was this true,
that l determined the entire world
should share in its results, and L there
fore placed the formula for its prepara-
tion in the hands offMr. II. H. Warner,
of Rochester, N. Y, a gentleman whom
l had cured of a severe kidney disease.
and who, by reason of his personal
worth, high standing and liberality in
endowing the Astronomical Observa-
tory and other public enterprises, has
become known and popular to the en-
tire country. This gentleman at once
began the manufacture of the remedy
Warnsr's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure,
known and used in all parts of the con-
tinent.
81 am aware a prejudice exists tow
ards proprietary medicines, and that
such prejudice is too often well founded,
Duu bhO SaiuO VI q pure lcultuy 10 uO
less because it is a proprietary medicine.
A j%ustifiable prejudice exists towards
quack doctors, but it is right that this
prejudice should extend toward all the
doctors who are earnestly and intelli-
gently trying to do their duty? Be-
cause Warmers Safe Kidney and Liver
Cure saved my life before 1t became a
proprietary medicine, is it reasonable to
suppose that 1T will not cure others and
keep still more from sickness now that
it is sold with a government stamp on
the wrapper Such a theory would be
childish
The doctor then paid some very high
compliments to American science, and
closed his lecture as follows:
"How to restore the health when
broken and how to keep the body per-
feet and free from disease must ever be
mans highest study. That one Of the
greatest revelations Of the precent day
has been made in a%scertaining the true
seat of health to be in the kidneys and
liver, all scientists now admit, and !
can but feel that the discovery which l
have been permitted to make, and
which l have described to you, is des-
tined to prove tho greatest, best and
most reliable friend to them who suffer
and long for happiness, as well as those
who desire to keep the joys they now
possess"

tive qualities Of the water. l am happy

glorious results, l am only too glad to
