A very shocking thing happen d
in family Of cololed people IN
Philadelphia, on ruesda1 OF last
week. There were two children,
one aged three years and The other
an infant or TWO months. The
mother while in another room en-
gagged in ironing, suddenly heard
the infant shrek out in the most
agonized way, and rushing into the
room beheld a terrible sight. The
three-year old boy had heated a
poker red hot and thrust it down
the baby's throat after marking its
face with the kissing iron in a ter
rible way. The child died after
writhing in torture some hours.

. The Jewish Passover.

The Hebrew festival of the Pass
over will commence at sundown
this evening, continuing week
and a day. The festival is ordained
to commemorate the goodness of
the Almighty in hearing the cries
Of the children of Israel when they
were prosecuted by the Egyptians.
On the day before Passover, He
brews who keep the faith remove
all bread, beer, or any liquors made
of grain, from their houses, as also
all vessels which may have been
used to contain them. On this day,
also, every flrst-born son must fast,
in gratitude to the Almighty, who,
when He slew all the first.born of
the Egyptians, on the night that
the Israelites lefd Egypt, passed
over all the houses of the Israelites,
not iDjuring one of them. On the
evening of the fourteenth day of
the month Neson, the festival of
the Passover begins, and 1t contin-
ues eight days, during which time
no leaven of any kind is allowed to
be eaten. The first two days and
the last two days of the festival are
holy days, during which the faith.
fdl do no work.
On the first two nights of the
feast, the table being prepared as
usual on Sabbath and festivals,
three plates are put thereon, in one
of which is placed three passover
cakes, In another tho shank bone
Of the shoulder of q lamb and an
egg roasted, and in the third is put
some chervil or parsley and horse
radish; also, there is placed upon
the table cup Of vinegar or salt
water and mixture of apples, al
monds and cinnamon. The bone
of the lamb is in memory Of the
Passover Offering. The egg re-
minds the faithful of the festival.
The bitter herbs are eaten because
the Egyptians made the lives of
their ancestors bitter by slavery.
The mixture Of apples, almonds
and cinnamon IL in memory of the
bricks and mortar used by the peo-
pie Of Egypt. --- =,
The table being thus laid, the
members of the family are seated,
and each has glass of wine placed
before him. Each Is expected to
drink four glasses. Hebrew serv-
ants are allowed to sit at the table
during the ceremony to commem-
crate the fact that all were equally

The Minister'S Cow.

1t Is good thing for a preacher
to "stick to his text" but if he is
tied to it it may run away with
him, especially II it goes on all
fours. An exchange tells this droll
story Of a clergyman's experiment,
and how it ended:
Some years ago there lived in
Central New York q very worthy
but eccentric divine known as Fa-
tber Goss. He had hired q man
named Isaac, who always obeyed
orders without question.
Father Goss bought COW one
day which proved refractory when
milked, refusing to surrender the
lacteal fluid, although Isaac used
all the persuasive arts of which he
was master. He finally reported
her delinQuencies to the master.
"Well, Isaac" said he, "go to the
barn and get those pieces of new
rope"
Isaac obeyed; the COW was driven
into the stable, tied with q piece Of
the rope, when the Rev. came out
armed with q knife.
"Now, he explained to Isaac, "I
will get on the cows back and you
may tie my feet beneath her, then
you 60 on with your milking, and
with my weight on her back she
must give down her milk"
Isaac obeyed. The feet were tied,
the pail got and the milking COM
menced.
But bossy objected. and plunged
wildly about. The stable was low
and the Rev's head was fesrfully
thumped. 80 Isaac Isaac |" he
awled, "cut the rOpeW
Isaac seized the knife and cut,
not the rope which tied the mas.
ter's feet-but the one that tied the
COW. The stable door was open,
also the yard gate.
Away darted the frantic COW, the
terrified man on her back, help
lessly roaring, "Stop her, stop
herl"
While madly careering down the
road he met parishioner who ex.
citedly called. "Why, Mr.. Goss,
where are you goingT'
"Only God and this COW knows"
groaned he; "T don'tw
The animal was finally caught
and the man released, much
frightened but unhurt.

"For 800 miles south from jack

apparently never wears out.
heard of one tree which bears an.
nually from six 10 eight thousand
oranges, but that is above the av-
erage."
"What 10 the cost OF an orange
grove ~
"As I said" replied Mr.. Gould,
"they vary In extent from twenty
to twenty five acres, and are worth
from $50, 1000 to 100000. But they
yield handsome percentage. For
instance, Mr.. Hart, who lives just
above me here, owns q grove OF
about twenty five acres, and he in
forms me that it yields him net
income of from $15, 200 to $50, 900
year."
SIS this interest growing ?"
"Decidedly 90, and l think that
within the next five years Florida
ought to be able to supply the en-.
tire demand of the United States
for oranges. 1 believe that the
sweet orange is not a native of
Florida, but has to be grated upon
the tree which bears the sour or
ange. On one tree you sometimes
see oranges, lemons and lines
growing together. OF course the
several fruits have been grated;
but 1t ia interesting and peculiar to
q NOrtherner to see these fruits
growing in hsppy family on one
tree. 1t suggests horticultural
paradise"
"Is orange growing the chief In
dustry of Florida ?"
"By no means. Not to speak of
cotton and live oak and the like,
you must not forget the alligator"

"No; his hide il the valuable

worth comparatively little, though
believe they make it into. boots
in England"
"But does Florida cultivate these
reptilesW
"That is not necessary. The
alligator cultivates himself and
produces quickly and numerously.
The whole swamp and river coun.
try is filed with them"
"And are they dangerous?"

Another Good Boy.

A Detroit grocer was the other

to return from dinner and give
him a chance at his own MONDAY
meal, when q boy came into the
store with q basket in his hand and
said:
II seed a boy grab this 'ere bas-

The afternoon waned, night
came and went, and once more the
grocer went to his dinner. When
he returned he was pick.

oomplacent smile. His eye caught
a basket Of eight doEen eggs as he
entered the store, and he queried:
"Been buying some eggs?"
"Yes; got hold of these from q

"Yes."
