Heaps of Fun.

There is an unaccountable fascination
to some men in the keeping of a feroci-
Gus dog which terrorizes the neighbor-
hood. The bigger and iercer the brute,
and the more likely he is to get loose,
the more his owner enjoys life and the
prospect of coming home some day and
hearing that a woman or child next
door has series of holes in their anat-
omy exactly corresponding to the teeth
of his pet. One of these beautiful ami
mails, large bloodhound, managed to
slip his chain the other day, and made
for a little boy, who was standing beside
his sled on the top of a hill, at Mt. Yer
non, near New York. Although the
brute is only seven months old, he is
about the size of the six-year boy. He
knocked the boy down, caught him by
the right hip and shook him as if he
were a rat, lacerated his scalp, his eye,
his ears and his back. After he got tired
of this sport he allowed his owners wife
to take him away. The beast has long
been the terror of the village and the
neighbors want him shot. But his
owner won't listen to that. He will not
deprive himself of the fun of seeing his
neighbors go half a mile out of the way
to avoid his house, or of witnessing his
shaking boy up well now and then.
AS compromise he'll do the fair thing
and pay the DOCTORS bill.

A SchoolbOy's ThOughtlesS Act.

About as sad a case as has lately
fallen under your correspondents notice,
saws Bloomington, Ind, correspond
ent, occurred in this (Monroe) county,
and should be written up as a warning
to vicious boys, if that class is supposed
to ever heed warnings. A. j. Payne,
of Salt Creek Township, has bright
and pretty little daughter OF seven
years, who attended the district school
in the neighborhood of her fathers
farm. On a pleasant morning about
four years ago, while on her way to
school, the girl was met by a vicious
neighbor boy, three or four years older
than herself, and who had a dead black
snake, which he carried on stick. lie
thrust the dead snake into the girls
face, and she was so terrified she could
not run away Then he took the snake
and wrapped it around her neck and
shoulders and ran off, leaving her thus
environed. She shook the reptile off
and hastened on to school. The child
was greatly agitated during the entire
forenoon, and when she returned home
her parents, greatly alarmed, urged
her to tell them what had occurred, for
her conduct was wild and strange. She
gave them the story in disjointed
manner, shrieking out frequently "take
the snake away" By night her reason
was a wreck, and has so remained ever
since. For four years she has recog-
nized no one, but daily sat with her little
slate on her lap, marking out the same
figures she had been given as a lesson
at school on that fateful day on which
the vicious boy placed the dead snake
about her, and this monotony was only
broken at times, when she would cry
out, "take the snake away" Hoping
that medical science might possibly do
something for the relief of his daughter,
Mr.. Payne took her to the State Insane
Asylum at Indianapolis afew weeks ago.
The physicians of the institution last
week wrote him there was only faint
hope for his beautiful child, and she will
probably end her days an occupant of
the Asylum for the 1ncurable Insane.

4 Poor Woman Falls Heir to Million
and a Half.

On q truck patch at Sixteenth and
Dickinson Streets, says the Philadelphia
Rc-oni, lives a family ramed Glen.
They are in rather poor circumstances.
The husband works the truck farm and
sustajnS afamily consisting of a wife and
four children. Recently the wife was
notified that her father had diedin Mel
bourne, Australia, leaving 81 100000 to
her. The story told by the Glen family
is this:
Somewhere about thirty years ago
James Boyle, his wife and two children
were living upon a farm in Laghtnagai-
legh, County Donegal, Ireland. Years
Of hard toll struggling with the impov-
erished solhad failed to place the farm
er IN comfortable position, and finally,
when his lease expired he determined to
seek his fortune elsewhere. Ahome was
found for the children-the girl Mary,
who was then but babe, being placed
with her grandparents and Boyle and
his wife took passage for Victoria, Aus
tralia. On arriving at the colony he OBJ
tanned employment, and by care and in
dustry saved enough in a few years to
buy farm. Prosperity continued to
attend him, and eventually he became
one of the most extensive farmers in
the district. Meanwhile, the baby
daughter whom he had left behind was
growing to years of wOmanhood. From
time to time the mail brought words of
good cheer from her parents, but the
welcome misSives ceased after 1870, the
last one stating that her mother and a
sister who was born in the colony, had
died, and that her father had given up
farming and was investing heavily in
gold mines near Ballarat In 1871 Miss
Mary married Glen, and Immediately
afterward the couple embarked for this
country. They are now living with their
children on u truck farm, in q three
story brick house at Sixteenth and
Dickinson Streets.
For nine long years Mrs. Glen had
mourned her father us dead. Often,
almost hoping against hope, she wrote
to his far-distant home, but none of the
letters elected response. A few
49, ilohONCl, lClICl WIFI bllG
Irish postmark reached the house. This
proved to be from an uncle, and con-
tanned the information that her father
had died, leaving an estate of about
t2S5, 900, nearly 100000; that her
only brother had also died in 1874, and
that therefore she (Mrs. Glen) was the
sole surviving legatee to her fathers
wealth. This information seemed al
most incredible to the Glens, who could
not realize thepossibility of being raised
from their present humble position to
one OF luxury and affiuence. Letters
were sent to the Australian LAWYERS. the
good news was confirmed, and, within
the last week, Mrs. Glen has received a
letter from solicitors in Melbourne, ask
ing for certificate of birth. This must
be obtainedfrom Ireland, and the whole
charge of the matter has been placed in
the hands of lawyer John Austin Pur-
cell, who will take the necessary steps
by which the family can come into pos
session of the enormous fortune.

Men Of Millions.

In the Treasury Department, writes
a correspondent at Washington, there
is an interesting set Of books printed
and bound. and each one about the size
Of Webster's Dictionary. But they are
not open to public inspection. These
hooks contain the name and residence
of every holder of registered four per
cent bonds in the United States. The
amounts range from $50, which is the
smallest, up to S5l,OOO,OOO, which Is
the largest sum owned by one person.
This latter sum is owned by w. H. Van
derbilt and upon it he draws S5lO,OOO
in interest every ninety days. A check
for that amount is mailed to him quar-
terly. At the same time the, owner OF
a $50 bond receives fifty cents. These
bonds are very popular, and although
the original holders of them paid but
mar on little share, since which
time bonds have advanced to about
thirteen per cent. premium, yet the
books of the company show but com
paratively few transfers. The premium
is not sufficient temptation to cause the
average holder to part with his Securl-
ties. For instance the bonds owned by
Vanderbilt are now worth about $685.
600 900. but he holds on to them ALT
same, W. H. Vanderbilt individually
owns more registered United States
bonds than are owned in all the nineteen
Western States and Territories. These
States and Territories have a population
of over twenty millions, yet there is
held among them but $4,000, 900 OF
registered bonds, or less than Mr.. Van
derbilt owns. In the fourteen Southern
States Sl2,000,0O0 are owned, or about
one-fourth the amount held by single
citizen in New York.
A prominent Treasury official, IN
speaking of the inequalities of fortune
as illustrated by these figures, said he
tboughtit would eventually cause discon-
tent. A man with the enormous wealth
now possessed by Mr.. Vanderbilt could
add to 1t very rapidly; in fact it will
double itself in twenty years II put INTO
four per cent. bonds and let alone save
to add the annual Interest. With the
present " start which Mr.. Vanderbilt
has in bondsand dividend-paying stocks
it will be an easy matter for him to be
worth ut least $3.50, 100000 should he
live twenty years hence. It's said that
lie is worth more than half Of this sum
now
Outside the Vanderbilt family there
is no single individual who owns over
Sj,O0J,0O} of registered bonds. Those
who own 81, 100000 are not numerous.
Quite number, several hundred in
fact, in different portions of the coun-
try. have over 100000. This is re-
garded as a nice plum and the man who
has tugged long time to get the round
$4,000 can afford to take q rest, and
draw $1,000 in interest every ninety
days. He enjoys it almost as much as the
men. who by daily labor and applica-
ton, earns an equal income.

The wife of William Shields, of this
vicinity, says the Muscatine Qowa)
Journal, wears a gold ring which has a
history. 1t was bought by her grandfa.
ther in England previous to his mar.
riage. He had inscribed on the inside
of the ring the words 81 love my
choice" and presented it to his wife as
a wedding present. 1t was worn by the
young bride during her short welded
life Of six years, when she died, and by
request Of her husband the ring was not
taken from her finger when she was
buried. After the body had been buried
seventy years the grave was opened,
the ring taken out and given to the
daughter of the deceased, who recently
sent it to her daughter, Mrs. Shields.
So the ring is about eighty years old at
least.
