Turning quickly, Arthur saw the

A Remarkable Couple.

In Montreal, in January, 1889, Michel
Gannue and Melissa Gamer were married.
He was II, she was fourteen. In 1901
vile, New York. There they lived to-
gether for rs years. On the 9TH of De-
cember, 1879, Mrs. Gannue died, at the
age of l03 years, after married life of SO
years. Her husband is still living, los
years old. He lives with his sOn-in-law,
Geo. Muir, at 81 Munger street, Rochester,
n. Y. He is sound mentally. With the
exception of being cripple from fall he
had sixteen years ago, his physical condi-
ton is excellent. He became blind in his
goth year. He was blind six years when
his sight gradually returned. When his
wife WAS dying he stood by her bedside.
When she could no longer speak to him he
became so affected that his eyesight failed
again. On the day of her burial he was
escorted to her coffin to take his last look
at his venerable consort. He could not
see her face. he exclaimed bitterly: SIT
is hard, after living nearly ninety years
with her that she must be taken away
without my being able to see her again =
He had never been known to weep before.
Mr.. Gannue is basket maker. He has
not worked at his trade since he became a
cripple. He is an inveterate user of to
bacco, but never drank intoxicating liquors.
HIS wife bore him sixteen children. Eight
three sons and five daughters-are still
living. There are living besides thirty
eight grandct ildren, tweaty-three great
grandchildren, thirteen great-great-grand-
children, eight great great-grand-
children, and five great great-great- great
grandchildren. A few months ago MIR.
Gannue's eyesight was again renewed.

Twice Resurrected.

Not long ago, woman in Mason Coun.
ty. Illinois, to all appearance died. She
had been unwell, but her death was sudden
and unexpected. The body was kept till
the next day, about 2 P. NJ, when it was
enclosed in coffin and taken to the grave
yard, followed by great many mournful
friends. In laying her out her arms were
tied together above the elbows with strip
of cloth, so that her hands would retain a
position across her breast. At the grave
ssme of her friends wished to view her re-
mains and the coffin was opened that they
might do SO. On removing the lid over
the glhss they could not see through the
moisture on it, and it was then seen that
one of her hands had been torn loose from
the band and was lying by her side, and
her arms were as Timber as of one alive.
The circumstances born upon the minds of
several present, but still they could not en-
tertaln any notion but that she was dead.
Her hands were again placed in position
across her breast and retied with the same
strip Of cloth, and she was buried. After
returning 20 their homes several of the
parties who had noticed the singular ap-
pearance of the corpse commenced to talk
it over, and they soon raised DOUBT in
their minds that she was not dead. About
8 O'Clock the same evening several went to
the grave and took the body up. On open
ing the coffin they found fresh moisture on
the glass of the coffin lid. and her hands
were again broken from the strip of cloth
that bound them, and they were both |, Ing
by her side, and, instead of her limbs being
III the least rigid, they and her fingers were
flexible. Notwithstanding all this they
could not convince themselves but that she
was dead, and she was reburied. The mat
ter was generally discussed In the neigh
borhood, and by the folrvwing Sunday the
excitement had grown 80 intense that 1t
was decided to reexhume her the following
day. The next day. Monday, after she
had slept beneath the sod for four days and
nights; she was again resurrecteG and ia
ken to her home, whero she has been slow
ly but gradually improving. Her friends
entertain the strongest hopes cf her recov-
cry, which, if she does, will be remarka-
BILE occurrence, long to be remembered by
the people of Snicarte. The way in which
this affair was managed was, to say the
least, very singular.

Coffee Production of the World.

The four great coffee countries of the
world are Brazil, Java, Sumatra and Cey-
lon. The data and figures for 1879 show
that Brazil itself has produced an extra
ordinary quantity of beans. Hitherto ESQ
600 tons have been considered as good
yearly figure for Brazil last year the ex-
port alone amounted to 273, 900 tons. But
the consumption of coffee in the country
itself now amounts to 90, GOO tons, raising
the total yearly products OF Brazil to $685.
900 tons. Fortunately for the planters in
other parts of the werld, coffee has grown
into necessity in the United States, and,
thanks to this, Its price has risen. Although
the soil of Brazil, especially for coffee cul-
ture, is very extensive, yet the difficulty of
obtaining labor daily becomes greater, and
| this renders it doubtful whether the above
figures can be much exceeded. The crop
| in Java and Sumatra was estimated at
| "a, 900 tons for export the consumption
of the inhabitants, although the population
Is double that of Brazil, is not half of that
of the latter country. The production in
Ceylon, though greater than that OF 1873,
shows falling off when compared with
former years; there were Al 200 tons ex-
ported from the island, the native con-
sumption being very small. Coffee is,
besides, grown In Central America, in Sc
veral of tine South American Republics, in
the British and other colonies OF the West
Indies, in HaytI, Cuba. Porto Rico, Arabia,
MaurltIus, Reunion, and along the north
east coast of Africa, in Liberia, and til
African west coast, in Manila, Celebes ant
