MN a Lot Mas Mover Bnilt Upon.

Titcomb streets for many years have
often wondered why the lot on the east
ern corner has never been improved.
There is among few or the Knowing
ones. n romantic explanation which,
whether true or not, is implicitly be
lievcd by them. They say that over hall
n century ago a young Herald Office
apprentice undertook to deliver an adj
dress on Brown square near by, and
upon an unpopular subject, causing him.
self TO be mobbed by the popnlace and
forbidden to speak by the authorities;
and that the owner of the lot In ques-
ton. being a stubborn advocate of free
speech. invited the youth to use his land;
and the speech was then delivered; after
which the land owner vowed that the
land should never be built on as long as
he could help it, and that he managed TO
entail it down to our time, though this
entail is understood to be nearly over,
there being no such eternal facilities for
such work in America as III England
There Is some talk of erecting a statue to
that Young apprentice, and whether the
story is strictly true or not, no more BIT

name was William Lloyd Garrison, and
his unpopular subject was negro slavery.

A Powerful Criticism.

A man, desk, a room. The mon was
in the room and his feet were ON the
desk.
Nothing was wasted.
The man was an editor.
Somebody raped at the door
Come in, sad the editor.
1t was a boy.
He laid book on the editors table
and went out.
The editor looked at it awhile and
then took it into another room where
there was another man with his foot on
the desk. He was writing busilv. but
ceased his work as the editor came n.
He was literary person.
"Give this good notice" said the
editor
An right, said the literary person.
Then the editor went out.
The clock in the corner of the room
kept up an incessant ticking. The lit
erary person disliked this clock bnt the
man who wrote the financial articles
owned the clock and would not allow If
to be removed. He said its ticking re-
minded him of the way bankers did
business.
After awhile the literary person fin
ished his review of q book on the ethics
of protoplasm, and stopped writing
Presently he looked at the book which
the editor had left. He had never seen
anything like it before, but he did not
weaken. Again his pen Travelled rapidlv
over the paper. This is what he
wrote
1--WE have received from the publish
ers dainty work, entitled Records Of
Trotting and Pacing in the United States
and Canada for 1880, and we can warmly
recommend 1t to our readers While
the plot is one replete with sensational
incidents and situations, it is vet Of u
character that can afford none, teaching
as 1t does, the lesson that true progress
is attained by honest effort. The almost
idyllic story of Maud S. and St Julien
who seem to be the principle characters
in the story, Is told IN simple yet fin
ished manner, and one lays down the
book with a restful feeling at the heart
that should always be produced by a
properly-constructed novel"
The next day the editor saw this IN his
paper. He read it carefully and said:

happy through the use of this valuable

CHAINED HIMSELF.
How a Texas Farmer Arranged for bhs
Death from EIydrOPbObia-


A Dallas Texas letter says: ga tragic
death has lust occurred in our nelghbor-
ing county of Hill worth relating, and
worthy of Virginius or any other Roman
father. One year ago George Arnold
came to Dallas on private business, ana
while walking the streets was bitten by
a worthless cur which was frothlng at
the mouth, and showing other symptoms
of hydrophobia Mr. Arnold became
alarmed and very much excited when
convinced in his own mind that the dog
was mad. He went to a physician and
had the wound severely cauterlzed.
Then, going home, he was still very I'M
easy, and dreaded hydrophObia SO much
that he hunted up a maidstone and had
il applied for several weeks, off and ON.
He took every other precaution which
was suggested, resting all the time under
n mortal dread that the virus had gone
into his system, and would sooner or
later kill him. He had a wife and sew
eral small children living on a rather
isolated farm, and the thought that he
might suddenly lose his reason and harm
his little babes Mortified him. The other
day be began to experience strange feel
ings, and at once concluded his time had
come He then procured a twelve-foot

the woods. After writing his wife
calmletter, In which he told herwhat was
about to happen, giving directions as to
his wishes after death, and pouring ont
a volume of love for her and their chill
dren, he ran the chain round a tree,
drew it through the large ring at the
end, and then wound the other end
around his ankle so tight that it would
not slip over the foot, locked it with the
lock, and threw the key far beyond his
reach The body was found two days
after. still chained to the tree. There
was all the evidence necessary to show
the horrible death from hydrophobia.
The ground was torn up to the full length
of the chain, the nails of the fingers
wrenched off, and all hisfront teeth ont III
scratching and biting the tree, and every
thread of clothingofT his body The body
was dreadfUlly lacerated with these, the
only weapons the mailman could use.
He had Judged rightly what would have
+ been the consequence had he remained
at home, and, knowing that there was
no human skill that could have cured
/ him, preferred death alone, and in that
way, to doing harm to those so near and
/ dear TO him as n wife and children.
ARNOLD was originally from ITALIA
dega. Alabama, where he married, and
where his widow has many friends and
relatives"

The Science Of Forestry.

The Boston GIobc says: The science
of forestry is coming TO press more
earnestly upon public attention as our
forests disappear under the wasteful
policy which has prevailed ever since the
country was settled, and In various direc-
tons effort Is made to save what Is left
and 10 repair, for the sake of future
generations, the losses already sustained
Such an effort Is that of the Middlesex
FEELS Association; and from the same
locality there comes the appeal of Mr..
+. Rand for the planting of rock or sugar
naples. Mr.. Rand's plan Is ''to take
these trees from the forest at suitable
age for transplanting, and set them ont
on the borders Of highways, row on
each side, say one hundred feet apart, or
with space enough to allow fair view
of our beautiful New England landscapes
from the road. Let them be arranged
so that the trees on the two rows NAV
not come directly opposite each other,
but have the trees ON either side alter
nate with the trees on the other side. In
twenty or twenty-five years the average
of these trees would be Of suitable size
to tap for sap, and meanwhile they would
have answered all the other purposes Of
shade trees equally well or better than
others" The rock for sugar making,
is n beautiful, hardy, clean, and valuable
shade tree, and in addition Is especially
valuable. Mr. Rand estimates that the
cost Of this enterprise would be not
more than 81 a piece for the trees,
including the frame work necessary to
protect the young trees from browsing
animals; while the profit does not end
when the trees cease to produce sap, for
the wood is valuable for various articles
of manufacture and for fuel.

An Act of Charity TO a villain.

We quote the following from a recent
issue of the Detroit Free Press:
Mr. and Mrs Geo. W. Durham, of
II Columbia street west, were walking
up Woodward avenue, and at the Con
gress street crossing one of those street
corner oglers of ladies addressed an in
sulting remark to Mrs. Burnham. Her
husband of course heard it, but with
great self-control he passed on a few
doors, left the lady in friends store
and returned to the place where the in
cident occurred. The fellow was still
there leering at other ladies passing by.
Walking up to him Mr.. Burnham quietly
said: You have insulted lady and /
and am going to punish you for it.
Put up your hands. The fellow accepted
the challenge and in about three minutes
he was perhaps the most scientifically
pummeled mortal the streets of Detroit
have seen in a generation. Bleeding
limp and helpless some men loaded him
on dray and carted him off, while Mr.
Burnham wrapped handkerchief around
his swollen and bleeding right hand, re-
Joined Mrs Durham and went on his
way as coolly as if he had not done the
community an invaluable service His
example is eminently worthy of emula-
ton. Tom Doner is the name of the
person to whom the wholesome correc-
ton was applied.
THE Times, of Natal, contains an ac-
count, obtained from native sources by
Mr.. Osborn, the British resident in Zu-
luland, of the memorable disaster at
Isandlana. The description of the stand
made by ''the last man" is full of pathos
"He struggled on and on, retreating
higher and higher up in the hill, till he
reached small cave or recess in the
rocks, into which he crept, and with his
gun kept off the enemies. The ground
in front of the little cave (which was
pointed out to mel falls sleepily down,
and the Zulus, taking advantage of the
rocks and stones scattered about, en-
deavored, two or three at time, to APP
proach and shoot him. The soldier,
however, was very cool and wary, and
invariably shot every Zulu as he APP
peared. He did not blaze away hurried
". but loaded quickly, took deliberate
aim, and killed man with every shot,
till at last, the Zulus now very tired, a
number of men, good shots, were brought
up with guns, who fired simultaneously
at the unfortunate man, and so killed
him."

SOME curious astronomical calculations
have been presented 10y Mr. c.. B. War
ring before the Poughkoepsie Society of
Natural Science, a few Of which possess
general interest If we suppose the dis
lance between the earth and the sun
(about ninety-twO and one-third millions
of miles, to be reduced TO a dozen rods or
more, the size of the two globes to be re-
duced in the same proportion, the dis
lance from the earth 10 the nearest fixed
star would still be, on the same scale,
about two thousand miles, and to the
more distant ones it would be not less
than eighteen millions Of miles From
those more distant stars tho light must
travel for sixty centuries before 1t reaches
us, and yet light travels so fast that
would circle round the earth more than
seven times in a single second Of time.
If the sun could be reduced, IN imagina-
ton, to 100 of an inch In diameter, the
earth would then be of microscopic size,
about 1-IO. 900 of an inch, but the dis
lance between it and the nearest stsr
would not be less than three miles If
. the sun were n hollow sphere and the
earth were placed at its center, with the
moon revolving around it in its estab-
lshed orbit, there would still be a dis
lance Of 300, 900 miles from the lunar or
bit to the surface of the solar sphere Ii
these relations of size and distance arr
inconceivable, the forces which compel
the planets to move IN their elliptical or
bits are quite as much beyond our com
prehension. A bar of steel three inches
square viii sustain a weight of $40 tons,
but bar having q section Of IA square
inches would sustain 500 tons, which,
upon a railroad would require S64cars to
support 1t, and % locomotives to trans
port it. To defect the moon from q
straight course into its present orbit, or,
what Is the same thing, TO retain 1t in its
present course, would require the united
strength of not less than eight steel bars,
each one hundred miles square, or, more
accurately, a single bar whose section is
81. 800 square miles-more than large
enough to cover the States of New York
and Ohio together. If this force were
represented by a web of steel wires, each
one-quarter Of an inch in diameter,
stretched from the earth to the moon,
they would be distributed over our earth
on the moon side only six inches apart (;
and if a similar web were stretched from
the earth to the sun, the force exerted be-
tween these two bodies would require the
wires to cover one side of the earth as
close together as blades of grass upon a
lawn.
