After Thirty Years.
ROMANTIC STORY OF MASSACHUSETTS
 MAN.

Sudbury, Mass, has singular bit of personal history to talk about. A few weeks ago George Barker returned to his people in that place after an absence of thirty years. He had never heard from his people, nor had they heard of him in all these years. He left home when he was nineteen, and being a lit tie wild and inclined to gamble, it was thought he had been murdered. He was @ railroader, and when the war broke out he was living near Corning, N. Y., employed in saloon. He enter ed the 162d New York regiment, and was with this regiment for three years and three months, till it was mustered out in 1865, excepting seven months that he was confined in rebel prison. He was present at the siege of Fort Hudson, at the battle of Donaldsonville, the taking of Mobile and at several minor engagements, and with his regi- ment accompanied Banks on the famous Red River expedition. He was forum ate enough, however, to escape without harm, although often in the thickest of the fight, excepting bayonet wound in the hand, causing 8 slight stiffness in one of his fingers. At the battle of Peach Orchard, where he was captured, his regiment, which had been sent for ward as skirmishers, YVES ordered to fall back without h1s hearing the order. With nine others he was caught between the hostile fires, and was the only one who emerged from the ordeal alive. He escaped capture this time, but was less fortunate in the next days engagement when he was cut off by the rebels, witt some 4,8OO others. For seven months lacking two days, he was held prisoner at Tyler, Texas, being finally exchanged at the mouth of the Red River, witt many others. After his discharge, 1T 1865, he returned to New York, and fol the next eight years was engaged in thu market business in various places in thu State. He then worked for short tim, at his old trade of railroading, afte
 which he engaged in farming and gar dening, in which business he has beel
 occupied up to the present time. o
 late he has been living near Buffalo He found his people after ittl searching, and the old mother and sis , ters welcomed him as from the deaG , He has been in twenty-six States, neve l married and proposes to settle in the ol

A Terrible Fate.

A truly horrible incident is reported in the Viennese papers as having taken place short time ago in the great paper mill of Messrs. Gellerth & Fuerth, at Pilsan. It having been reported to the manager of that establishment that the great steam boiler was foul and the fur naces required cleaning, he caused the fires to be extinguished, and employed gang of workmen to execute the neces- sary cleansing operations. One of the laborers, a powerful young fellow of nineteen, named Anthony Kaczander, after toiling hard at his share of the job for several consecutive hours, lay down in the huge air-pipe, running under the main furnace, intending to snatch few minutes rest. He must have fallen into deep sleep; for, when the masons instructed to brick up the end of the pipe later on in the day, carried out their orders, he made no sign. As soon as the furnace was pronounced to be again in working order, the stokers were instructed to light the fires, and did SO. Presently Kaczander was missed in the mill. Search for him was instituted, but in vain.. Next morning it appears to have occurred to one of his fellow-work- men that he might have crept into the air-pipe. Upon this suggestion being communicated to the manager, steps were at once taken to break into the closed mouth of the tube, and sure enough, the charred skeleton of Anthony Kaczander was discovered lying close to the issue, bricked up during his heavy slumber of the previous afternoon. In all probability, awakened by the heat soon after the fires were lighted, he had crawled toward the outlet, and finding it impenetrably closed, has resigned himself to his fate. What the poor fel low must have undergone while being slowly baked alive, is almost too horrible to think of.

Settling the Riot Damages.

Alleghany County, Penn, has nearly completed the payment of losses caused by the Pittsburgh riots in 1877. Thus far claims amounting to about g., 2,750,- GOO have been liquidated, and bonds to the amount of $2, $50, 900 have been is- sued. It is thought that $45, ,O00 will cover all the unsettled claims. The law provides that claimants must sue and get verdict before they can recover ; but in nearly every instance compro- mise has been effected, and the Commis- sioners have agreed to a formal verdict for seventy-fve per cent of the loss sus- tained. In this sensible way expensive litigation has been avoided, and losses by the riots have received promp- recompense instead of being compelled to wait upon the slow process of the courts. There have been only three real trials, all of which the Commissi or ers have won.

Odd Scraps for the Household.

After buttering your cake tins scatter little four over them, and the cake is absolutely certain not to stick to the tin. If your oven is likely to bake hard at the bottom put paper in the bot tom of the tin. Butter it well first.
 Cellars thoroughly treated with white wash made yellow with copperas will not be considered desirable habitations for rats and mice.
 When washing fine faces do not use starch at all. In the last water in which they are rinsed put little fine white sugar, dissolve it thoroughly, and the result will be pleasing.
 To brown sugar for sauce or buildings put the sugar in perfectly dry sauce pan. If the pan is the least bit wet, the sugar will burn and you will spoil your saucepan.
 When putting away the silver tea or coffee pot which is not used every day, lay little stick across the top under the cover; this will allow fresh air to get in, and will prevent mustiness it will then be ready for use at any time, after having first been thoroughly rinsed with boiling water.
 Nothing is better to clean silver with than alcohol and ammonia; after rub bing with this, take little whitening or soft cloth and polish in his way even frosted silver, which is so difficult to clean, may be easily made clear and bright.
 Brush silk with piece of cotton vel vet rolled up tight. For washing, pour pint of boiling water on tablespoon full of alcohol. Let it stand till tepid, and sponge the goods with it.
 Silk neckties can be washed in rain water, to one pint of which add tea spoonful of white honey and one of hartshorn. Do not squeeze, but let them drip, and when nearly dry, press between folds of cloth.
 When water has once been made to boil, the fire may be much lessened, as but little heat is required to keep it at boiling point There is no advantage whatever in making water boil furious ly; the heat will escape in steam, with out raising the heat of the water.
 To fix pencil marks so that they will not rub out, take we'll skinned milk and dilute with an equal bulk of water Wash the pencil marks (whether writ ing or drawing) with the liquid, using Z soft, flat camers-hair brush, and avoid ing all rubbing. Place it upon fla board to dry.
 It is said two parts tallow and one O resin, melted together and applied t' the soles of new boots or shoes, a much as the leather will absorb, vii double their wear.
 Woodwork strongly impregnated witl tungstate of soda or silicate of soda by treatment in strong aqueous solution of these salts-wiu be found to be quit uninfammable.

Marriages in High Life.

Easter, writes the New York cor respondent of country paper, brought an unusual number of weddings in high life, and has also evidently stimulated inquiry, as may be inferred from the following paragraph in morning paper:
 cone hundred dollars for complete list of the rich and marriagea ble bachelors of New York;"
 In order to assist our readers in ob- taining the above mentioned prize, l may refer to James Gordon Bennett as one of the richest of our bachelors. He may return from Europe at any time, and hence the advertiser should be on the look out for him. He is now forty two, and owns house in Fifth avenue, also another at Fort Washington, with extensive grounds. To these are to be added the Bonnet building in Fulton street and the Herald establishment, which alone is estimated at $2,OOO, 900. His Newport property is worth $25O, 900, and there is to be added his hunting lodge in England and other properties that will bring his aggregate wealth up to $4, ,000, 900. He has been " engaged, '" but is now free, though at the expense of knock-down and an imaginary duel. Another eligible bachelor is William H. Hurlbert, editor of the World, who though not as rich as Ben nett, is still in good circumstances and is well adapted to make any woman happy. John Bridge is also on the list of celibates. He is rather advanced in years, but has million to recommend his case, and hence may be included in the term marriageable. Among younger men may be mentioned Frederick Paulding, the play actor, who is the richest man of his age Gin ex pectation at least), in the drama. Other eligible names may be found among tho Belmonts, Roosevelts and similar opulent families, and if any of oul readers will improve the abov, suggestions the prize will be readily won.
