HOW They Rnild Sewers in Paris.

81 watched them building sewers,
near the Seine, in Paris, said a Chicago
capitalist to a local reporter. 1T was
splendid work. But let me tell you it
costs money. The sewer ] saw con-
structed cost $50 per lineal foot"
What was the processP"
"In the first place, the trench was
twenty feet deep and eight or ten feet
wide. The sewers are made five feet in
diameter. When the trench is due%hey
put in a wooden pattern--somethiDg
like if you were to 90 to work and start
with bunghole and build barrel
around it. Around this wooden pattern
they pack stones and fill in with cement.
Nothing more. Anybody can do this.
They employ the commonest kind OF
unskilled labor. The stone that is used
is itself a kind of cement, and when
packed with cement it makes solid
rock foundation. When completed the
wooden pattern is taken out, and what
is left is a five-foot hole through a solid
rock, that will out-last time itself"

A Boston letter TO the Cincinnati En-
gutrer says: Advices just received here
20 to show that the fugitive Rev. Ezra
D. Winslow, forger, who ran away
from Boston with over $780, 900, is now
editor Of the Bucnos Ayres Herald, in
South America. The evidence shows
that after the English government re-
fused to surrender him he went TO South
America, where he assumed the name
of Lowe and became great church
member and agent of the National Bank
Note company, of New York. By
credit he got control of the Buenos
Ayres Herald and got fat billet as q
mediator between the Argentine Con-
federation and Chill, out of which he
reaped good harvest with certain
BANKERS.
A short time since he published
long obituary OF his wife, at present
living in this city, and went into mourn
ing, but soon after married a sixteen"
year-old girl, the daughter of wealthy
family in Buenos Ayres. Last month
the fact of the existence of the first wife
reached Buen os Ayres, and there was
trouble in his new family. He smoothed
matters by claiming that wife No. had
been divorced, when the contrary is the
fact, and he still continues to roll In
clover" Investigation here goes 10
show that few weeks since he wrote
to parties here offering to place SIC 600
in the hands Of wife No. if she would
get divorce from him. She is almost
broken hearted, and physical wreck,
but yet is disposed TO continue her bur-
den without complaint, although her
friends and relatives have advised her
to get a divorce from her notorious
husband.

Ye Olden Times.

Thirty years ago Michigan people
were frank and truthful set. Strangers
could come here and trade horses with
their eyes shut, and breach of promise
cases were unknown. Folks meant what
they said, and when they gave their
word stuck to it.
Exactly thirty years ago this month q
widower from New York State appeared
in Lansing on business. That same
business carried him over to Dewitt,
eight miles away. While en- route he
stopped at a log farmhouse to warm his
cold fingers. He was warmly wei
coined by the pioneer and his wife, both
of whom were well along in years, and
after some general talk, the woman
queried:
Am I right in thinking you are a
widowerP"
"Yes."
did you come out here to find a
wifeP"
Partly"
did anybody tell you OF our SusieP"
mo"
"Well, we've got as bouncing a girl
of twenty-five rs you ever set eyes on
She's good-looking, healthy and good
tempered, and l think she'll like your
looks
Where is shep"
"Over in the woods here, choppiug
down a coon-tree. Shall l blow the
horn for herr"
mo If you'll keep an eye on my
horse I'll find her."
Well, there's nothing stuck up or
affected about Susie. She'll say yes or
no as soon as she looks you over. II
you want Der don't be afraid to say So"
The stranger heard the sound of her
ak and followed it. He found her just
as the tree was ready TO fall. She was a
stout, good-looking girl, swinging the
ak like man, and in two minutes he had
decided to say;
Susie, / am a widower from New
York State; I'm thirty-nine years old,
have one child, own a good farm, and /
want a wife. Will you go back home
with me?"
She leaned on the AK and looked at
him for half a minute, and then replied {:
Cant say for certain. Just wait till
get these coons of my mind"
She sent the tree crashing to earth, and
with his help killed five coons, which
were slowed away in q hollow.
Well, what do you sayP" he asked,
as the last coon stopped kicking.
Pm your'nw was the reply; land
by the me you get back from Dewitt
I'll have these pelts off and tackled up
and be ready for the preacherw
He returned to the house, told the old
folks that he should bring a preacher
back with him, and at dusk that even
ing the twain were married. Hardly an
hour had been wasted in courting, and
yet he took home one of the best girls in
the State of Michigan. Detroit Free

opinion OF him. We went over all the
papers, but could not find the will.
Just as | was about to close the
trunk, Gunnison said; We have not
looked in the pocket inside the lid l

folded paper, which appeared to be the
will, or so exact copy Of it that | was
not prepared TO deny its identity. 1t
was written on kind of paper that /
have used for that purpose for half a
lifetime, and the writing was unmistak-
ably that of clerk OF mine named Peter
Chips. The signatures, too, were all
right, so far as | could see, but yet ! had
doubt. | caught myself taking the
valuable paper out of my pocket and
scanning it closely when Gunson was
not by, as if half expecting the scnseess
paper to reveal some subtle treaonery.

sible, and read the will carefully
through; then l hunted up the original
draft, and found that it agreed perfectly.

morning OF my return | was told that
an old woman-the nurse TO Matthew
Stokes--had called TO see me during
my absence. She would not leave any
message, but said she would call when
| returned to town. That day as was
leaving the Office the nurse came, full
of apology, and hoping l should not
think any the worse of her for what she
had to tell me. You know she said,
i told you that / believed Mr.. Stoke
burnt his will, and my reasons for
thinking SO is this. When be was
asleep l picked out two little bits OF
paper from the ashes, and / kept them

A chinese Ambassador,

Marquis Tseng, the Chinese ambassa-
dor to France and England, attracted
more attention than any other person at
the recent dedication of the Temple Bar
memorial in London. He appeared in
gorgeous array, with purple cap, from
which depended an enormous tassel, a
heavy dark silk petticoat, and yellow
wide-sleeved jacket. Recollecting the
utility OF Ah Sins famous sleeve, the
spectators eagerly watched the ambassa-
Ior as herequired various articles about
his person. At one time he was seen to
take handkerchief from somewhere
near his right shoulder and return it to
his breast, Then he drew AN opera
glass from one Of the capacious sleeves,
and appear d to produce a watch from
the vicinity OF his neck and put it up
seemingly in his boot. Meanwhile he
was all smiles, carefully observant of
The ceremonies and delighted with the
marks Of distinction rendered him.

Indian Children.

A comical Characteristic OF Indian
children is the excessively protuberant
abdomen and the thin legs and arms I;
fat, chunky boy or girl, is rare sight
among these people. Though tt boys
haunt the streams and lake JraL s
throughout spring, summCr and au-
tumn, swimming therein like ducks, and
as often as beavers, yet they always APP
pear begrimed, oily, and dirty; they
never have any trouble with their hair,
and il matters little to them or their
friends whether the frowzy topknot is
ever combed, parted in the middle or at
the side, or parted at all; they troop
about the village, now rollicking, now
covering like so many monkeys. The
eyes OF an averag Indian boy are small
and black; they are prominent, without
visible eyebrows; large eyes are
despised, because it Is claimed they are
weak and timid therefore, a handsome
boy must have small city optics, large
mouth full of stout teeth, and deep
chest; viii e the handsomest girl is the
strongest of her age.
The pappoose, after being weaned, for
the next five or six years keeps about
its mother, or abuses an older sister, il
he has one; he pays earnest and prompt
attention to meals, and is seldom seen
without something in his mouth; he
rolls contentedly in the ashes of the fire,
and spends hours during these tender
years in toastiug over the Goals little
strips of meat or fish impaled on twigs
or forked sticks; he becomes early
known TO all the dogs in the village,
and attaches himself TO some favorite
one or two of them, which receive all
the fresh bones and other dainty NOR
sells that he has to spare from day to
day. Gradually the spidor-like arms
and legs grow stronger, and he begins
to essay murder with the bow and
arrow, to initiate the strut of the war
riors as they stalk from lodge to lodge;
he rolls himself up 10 sleep every night
in the snuggest and most convenient
place he can find in the "teppee,' either
AT the feet OF his parents or coiled up
with his relatives.
The pappoOse finds his own playthings
as rule, though his father occasionally
unbenc far enough to fashion his first
bow an 'rrow. He delights in playing
ball, but not in catching it, as our boys
do. 1t is usually game similar to
"shinny" when played by the Indians.
He delights, also, in setting small snares
for grouse, rabbits and waterfowl, and
takes real honest boyish satisfaction in
robbing birds nests; but when the berry
season arrives, then is he happiest, and
his cup of content runs over. The
slender neither limbs are fairly bowed
and groggy beneath the fruit-distended
abdomen. AS the boys are never sub
jected to bearing the burdens, and
hardly ever put upon their feet before
they are two years old, the sight oi
bowed or knock kneed legs among them
is very rare indeed; but the practice OF
setting the young girls al the duty,
mornings and evenings, of bringing
packs of wood and water, causes nearly
all Of them to be inclined either out or
in at the knees.
