pense for the few pounds of poorest quality of
beef and az or 8 bushels of corn meal does
not exceed Sis. 90 per month, and over $Ioo
per month of the taxes of the citizens of the
state are drawn from the public crib to cover
this amount of $500. s-
The only change of diet known to the dozen
custodians for months past was at one time

Let the law and honst citizens attack such
frauds, remove those, who thus defraud the
people and the government of the public
funds and illtreat and torture human beings
by starvation! Compel officials to do their
duty and see that honesty is duly observed by

The human system requires a change OF

anxious to arrive in Bellair that day,
and seeing the stage already started,
rounding the corner, he got into it
without returning for his luggage. The
other passengers alighted at their
several destinations, and he was left
alone. Rush had some slight knowl-
of HIM, and believing him to carry
large sum had, when he found his vic.
tim left without protection, stopped
the coach, and in an unguarded mo
ment stabbed him in the neck. His
first idea after pillaging the murdered
man was to bury him on the spot, but
fearing discovery he hid his spoils a
little way off in the woods, and then
concocted a story to account for the
delay of the coach-wounding the
horse himself so as to bear out his tale.

POETICAL.
FOR LOVES SAKE.

sometimes am tempted TO murmur
That life is fitting away,
with only round OF trifes
Filling each busy day
busting the hooks and corners,
Making the house look fair,
And patiently taking on me
The burden Of woman's care.
Comforting childish sorrows,
And charming the childish heart.
with the simple song and story
Told with mothers art,
Setting the dear home table,
And clearing the meal away,
And going on little errands
In the twilight Of the day.
One day t Just like anotherl
Sewing and piecing well
Little jackets and trousers,
so neatly that none can tell
Where are the seams and Jennings
All! the seamy side Of life
Is kept out Of sight by the magic
or many mother and wife.
And oft when am ready TO murmur
That time is fitting away
With the self same round Of duties
Filling each busy day,
1t comes to my spirit sweetly,
With the grace OF q thought divine:
"You are living and toiling for loves sake,
And the loving should never repine.
"You are guiding the little footsteps
In the way that they ought 10 walk,
You are dropping word for Jesus
In the midst Of your household talk;
Living your life for loves sake,
Till the homely cares grew sweet
And sacred the self-denial
That is laid at the Masters feet.

Poison in Every Day Food.

Committees of experts tell of adul-
teration in food that is simply appall
ing. Were the ingredients which are
mixed with food innocuous it would
still be very great hardship but
when it is known that the most violent
poisons are employed it is a marvel
that the whole country does not rise
up and put a stop to such practices
and punish all dealers who sell poison
GUS articles of food. If confrmat ion of
these startling statements were needed
one has only to read the facts recently
brought to light in Chicago, where it
is impossible to find pure sugar and
where not ten per cent. of the milk is
good. In that city the bread without
exception, is poisonous; the teas were
never imported, but are made of leaves
''faced" with Prussian blue and chro-
mate of lead. Seventy-five per cent. of
the cream of tartar is white earth, and
the coffee coated with lamp black.
But Chicago is no worse than other
cities. Baking powders are largely
composed of alum. Picking fluid is
diluted with sulphuric acid, alum and
verdigris TO give it peculiar flavor.
The manufacture of great deal of
our confectionery should be punished
as crime, for much of the candy sold
to children is simply lump of white
earth, made attractive to the eye with
arsenical paint, and sweetened with
glucose. Costly spices are counterfeit
ed in terribly grotesque manner, the
tlayoring being given by the rankest
poisons. In these and other adultera
tions arsenic plays the largest part. We
import annually 100000 pounds OF
this deadly poison--one cents worth OF
which would kill $500 people-and the
bulk of this import is used in prepare
ton of food and clothing.

Saved by His SlimneSs.

a rather singular accident occurred
in the Short-line yards, at the head OF
Jefferson street, yesterday evening,
which came miraculously near being
fatal. A man named James Noise was
passing through the yards, walking
along the ends of the ties, when he was
caught By one of the engines. There
are large number of tracks at this
point which cross and recross each
other in very deceiving manner, and
as a number of engines are continually
passing and repassing, it is very dan.
gerous to walk the ties even in day
light. Noise saw the engine when II
came within about a hundred yards OF
him, and thinking it was going to pass
on another track, he turned his back
toward it and walked straight ahead.
The engineer saw him as the engine
got close to him, but supposing he
would step off the track, paid no more
attention to it until within a few feet OF
him, when he rang the bell and called
out at the top of his voice. Noise ap-
peared to be in reverie, and was so
startled that he gave a sudden Jump,
and, as often happens, jumped square
into the middle of the track. The en-
gineer reversed his engine, but it was
too late, and the footboard on the
engine caught his foot and jerked him
down in the middle of the track. He
fell on his back and the whole engine
passed over him, and to the great as
Constituent Of ali who saw it he got up
and hobbled off the track. 1t was found
that besides some very bad cuts and
bruises on bis foot where he was first
caught. and number of scratches on
his face and some very bad bruises
about his body, he was uninjured, but
his clothing was almost entirely torn
off. Noise is very tall, slender man,
and it was his slimness that saved him.
The firebox of the engine. which is very
low, caught him on the body and drag.
ged him some distance, but finally
slipped over him. The rails are hardly
four inches above the ties, and the es-
cape is most remarkable one.-Lou-
