Giving Dp Their Dead.

An interesting and important point
concerning the finding bodies of drowned
persons in the Mississippi river is made
by Deputy Coroner Preadlow, of ST..
Louis, who has been engaged in secur-
ing and caring for these bodies for near
ly twenty years. April is the great
month for the finding of bodies in the
river. Then is the time when what thew
term the five and six monthers are found.
Bodies that have been at the bottom of
the river all winter always rise in April.
In fact, all the cases Of drowning in the
winter are surely heard of in April, if
ever. Most cases of drowning, the fig
ures prove, take place in August.
Then, the water being warm, the
body rises to the surface within
forty-eight hours after its disappear
ance. In May, the body that goes
TO the bottom is seldom heard of until
nine days have passed by. The temper
ature OF the water governs the time. SO
long as the water is cold the body is pre-
served. Az soon as the water commences
to change from cold to warm the tissues
expand and soften, and the body be.
comes filled like a sponge with water.
This equivalent weight makes the bodv
weigh less than the water and IL rises to
the surface.

Cracking Wheat Tito Flour.

Minnesota millers no longer "grind"
wheat into flour. They ''crack" it, and
the people Of the Northwest claim that
the new process makes their hitherto in
Terlor wheat the most valuable in the
world. Burr stones are things of the
past and Hungarian steel rollers have
taken their place. These rollers are
about thirty inches long and eight inches
in diameter. it takes five sets of steel
rollers to finish the flour. Each set of
rollers run closer than the preceding.
After the wheat passes each set of rollers
Mt Is bolted or sifted through course cloth.
Ihls cloth lets the disintergrated par
ticles of wheat through and passes off
the bulky and larger pieces, which are
run through another and closer set
OF rollers and cracked again. The last
rollers have little else but wheat hulls
and waxy germs of wheat, which do not
crack up, but smash down like piece
OF wax. The germ of kernel of wheat
is not good food. It makes flour black.
by the old milestone process this waxy
germ was ground up with the starchy
portion and bolted through with the
hour. BY the new system of cracking
the kernel instead of grinding it this
germ IS not ground, but flattened out
and sltted or bolted out, while the starchy
portions OF the wheat are crushed into
powdered wheat or -four. All the big
mllls OF Minneapolis now manufacture by
the new process.

life misspent, an incompleted mission,
house ali void Of merry laugh
Pertain unto that fractional condition
OF man without better half.
No one to cheer him in this worlds unrest,
And soothe q debt-bemuddled brain:
No love with fertile fancy to suggest
Some way to 6 raise the wind" again.
No one to laugh with him when all is bright.
Nor weep when joys seem over gone
Alas no fingers, deft and white,
To sew missing button on.
No pure-whiSe brow, no love-lit eyes of blue.
No trosses moved by summer breeze;
Alb me! no dewy lips of rosy hue,
No lingring, soft, white hand to squeeze.
No sympathetic hope Of morn Of life,
Nor memory when he is old
80 sad the thought no meek and gentle wife
TO sneer at when the coffee's cold.
And duties over, when the long day dies,
No need Of gentle wifely tones,
NO one to ask with glad, expecting eyes,
Dear, did you get the best of Jones :"
o! earthly joys and pleasures he is bare.
Ee has no hope Of heaven withal:
No school for Christian resignation where
ae never hears g baby sQuall.

The Elder Booth.

Booth, the elder, knew his characters
6y intuition; he could assume or doff
them instantaneously at will. One
night, in the Charleston Theater. while
playing in the "Iron Chest" he stood
at the ewing" with Jefferson. Tho lat.
ter was playing Sampson, and Booth,
OF course, his great part of Sir Ed
%ard; While they were thus standing,
b?oto, who was waiting for his "cue,"
said to Jefferson:
by the way, Joseph, I notice that
you don't sing the song in this part of
Sampson. Why don't you do it
III the way your grandfather used to do?"
"Well, Mr.. Booth" replied the
young man, l think it must be for
TIE reason that L don't know how. I
never knew there was song sung in the
part"
"oh, yes" replied Booth, at once as
sumlng the air and facial expression of o
comedian, "your grandfather used to do
1t CAP r1tally. This is the way the song
ran"-and Booth went on with g. Won
dertully droll expression on his face, and
sang ditty beginning:
traveller stopped at the widows gate.
Suddenly, and while he was in the
midst of this performance, the "cue'
was given for his appearance on the
stage. IN an instant he dropped the
comedy part which he had for the mo-
ment assumed, rushed before the foot
lights, had his great scene with Wilfred,
ano' coming OFT again, met Jefferson and
at once resumed the expression of Samp-
son with all naturalness, and with
OUT thought OF aftectation, went on to
describe how the young mans grand
father sang the comic song : GA tray
eler stopped at the widows gate"
The elder Booths memory was quite
as remarkable as were some of his other
characteristics. During his engagement
with Jefferson he and the company went
from Charleston to Augusta, q trip
which Booth had not made for many
years. Yet, at every station at which he
stopped he stopped he was able not only
Ato recall the names of the principal
planters who had formerly lived there.
buc with the utmost exactness told the
number of bales of cotton they had made
III certain year, the number of slaves
they had owned and other details Of the
same minute character.
During this engagement MIR. Jefferson
played continuously with Booth, assum
ing such parts as Sampson, the
Grave Digger, in Hamlet" and the
Lord Mayor, in Richard III. "
which latter part for some hiddenreason
is always thrown to the lot of the come
dian. His impressions of Booth and
,Macready are that the one was in every
sense born actor, while the latter was
the greatest example of what can be ac-
'compllshed by close application, keen
intelilgenco and untiring study. The
latter won, according to Mr.. Jetferson's
views, by art; Booth succeeded by nat
Mr.. Jefferson, has ever appeared Tpon
the stage who threw more intensity
soul and passion into his performance

Tom COrwin's Welcome to His SOn.in.
Law.

At the marriageof of his oldest daughter,
Eva, to Mr.. George II. Sage, young
lawyer of Cincinnati, Corwin manifested
SO much feeling that the occasion took
more of the aspect of funeral than Of
wedding. During the ceremony he
shed tears, and at the supper, after a
prolonged and solemn silence, he sud-
denly broke out:
"Now L want it distinctly understood
that this thing is never going to happen
again in this house. There will never
be another wedding here. I will get
nigger six feet tall, and give him pole
ten feet long, and post him at the front
door, and instruct him to knock any
young man in the head who comes to
see my daughters"
Gen. Garfield relates that, shortly be-
fore Corwin's death, when he returned
to Washington from flying visit to
Lebanon to attend the marriage of his
youngest daughter, he referred to this
marriage of Eva, and said that he shut
himself up in his room for three or four
days before it occurred, and could not
be persuaded to take any part in the
preparations, and only on the most
earnest solicitations did he come down
to witness the ceremony. He said: "I
could not endure the thought of my
daughter loving another man betterthan
! myself; and yet she married noble
fellow. And now the old feeling has re-
turned. I tell you had horrible time

FOREIGN FLASHES.

Several newspapers state that at q parlta-
mentary dinner Bismarck observed thathe APP
pretended no conflict with the reich
stag during the present session, and did not
contemplate dissolution. The bills announced
in the imperial message, he said. would not be
dealt with all at once. Considerable time
would be required to dispose of them. If he
should be uI able to carry out his projects, he
would confne himself to foreign affairs and
appoint vice chancellor for the home depart
ment.
At a parliamentary dinner Bismarck main
tanned that the recent elections should by no
means be taken as condemnation of the policy
of the government, as, reckoning by the num-
Der of votes polled, the conservatives alone
among the principal political parties scored a
substantial increase as compared with the cleo
tons of 1878. This year the conservatives
polled 87O,358 votes, against 749,494 in
1878.

Iatery;ew With Guiseau's FIX Wife.

Mrs Dunmere, formerly the wife Of Guiteau,
was interviewed on her way to Washington to
testify. She said she had been twice summoned
to go to Washington, and obeyed the second
summons. She was sent for by the prosecution.
To questions whether she regarded Guiteau rs
insane when he was her husband (from 1869
TO 1879 she answered: s'Oh, no; he was of a
peculiar temperament, very irritable when he
could not have his own way, but he is perfect
ly accountable for all he did. He was not in
any way less sane than most men are He was
very vain; he liked to have people talk about
him, and always enjoyed any kind of notoriety.
Why, he enjoys all this notoriety he has now,
and is delighted to have his name in the papers
and to think the people Of the United States are
ia liking about him. He never mentioned in
sanity in his family, and would have resented
such q suggestion by others"

and I were friends. You borrowed upward
of seventy dollars of me in small sums, and
never paid dollar. This last year we

Difficulty of Getting Good Cigars.

They used to say that good cigar could
h known by the light brown specs on it.
These were made by worms, the story was,
and the worms were epicures in tobacco,
and would touch only the best. But the
chemists soon found way of Stimulating
these worm specs. So that spoiled the
test. Then there was no other guide but
the ashes. If these burn white, the CT
gar was good; if not, bad. But the enter
prising tobaconist soon found way to
make the vilest cabbagenia burn as spot
lessly white as the best Havana. Another
test gone. Finally the makers of choice
cigars put little red label around each.
This was thought to be sonnet hing which
would always be sure guide. And so it
would be, but unfortunately some of the
manufacturers have by a strange mistake
put the labels on the cabbagenias as we'll as
the Havanas.
