A Touching Incident.

A mothers love is deep. abiding and
peculiar. The child, as soon as born, is
taken up into her tenderest and. most
generous sympathies. and lives as it
were part of herself. This peculiar
affection is as extensive as the race, for
it is found among savage as well as civil
lized people. This affection was strik-
ingly manifested by an Indian woman
who had lost her child. Unable to find
her own child, she. entered the home of
a whole family, and taking in her arms
the pretty baby lavished upon it her
wealth of treasured sympathies. The
mother was surprised at the peculiar ex-
hibition, and sprang forward to rescue
her child, when the poor, Indian gather
ed up her blanket as one would q sick
child, and after clasping it in her arms,
uttered q low, mourlfu1 cry. Tears ran
down her cheeks, as the. white mother
put her babe back into the Indian $
arms. She passed her hands over it very
tenderly and gratefully, and departed.
In a week she came again, bringing a
peck OF ripe, wild .plums, and the next
two buffalo tongues. She asked permis-
sion, by signs, to kiss the baby. and it
was granted. Then she departed, and
never came again. a;.s4G-,i .f.5-s.s -r.it +

The Precept of Cheek.

When the boldness and ingenuity of
the reporter encounter the craft and the
brass of the stock speculator, the specu-
lator gets the worst of it. A New York
reporter, named Raymond, is said to
have achieved what is regarded as next
to an impossibility interview with
Jay Gould. In answer to one question
as to a certain railroad project, Gould
professed absolute ignorance. .'Well, !"
said Raymond. '1'd tell you something
about-it if weren't afraid you'd give
away to the World or Tribune" '.I'm
not reporting for either paper said
Gould, with smile. mo" said the
reporter, ''but believe they are report
ing for you" That reporter will sue
ceed. He believes in the precept: "If
any one turns his cheek toward you turn
to him the other also" 1t is hardly
surprising to. learn that so accomplished
an interviewer discharged himself from
the Herald before the managing editor
had time to do it, after he threatened it.
and is now an American correspondent
of the London Times. i:5ee ..-

An Incident of Alma.

An incident at the battle of Alma ex-
cited universal sympathy, but fortu-
nately not of melancholy kind. An
officer of the guards had sold his COM
mission before the war, tired, as SO
many are, of the monotOnous routine OF
regimental duties in time of peace.
When it became known in England
that the allied armies were going to en-
bark at Baltshik for the invasion of Rus
sia, he hurried to the East in the first
steamer, and volunteered to serve in
the ranks of the company he had form
erly commanded. His application was
Immediately acceded to by the kind
hearted general. The volunteer was re-
marked for his gallant bearing under
fire when stornling the Russian posi-
tions on the heights, and for his ring
ing cheer to the soldiers, who had known
him as their captain. He was made an
officer and attained second time the
rank which he had resigned. His name
was so well respected in the army that
there need be no scruple in mentioning
that it was Lane x.-Ienaple Bar.

He Didn't Take It.

He said he was looking for suitable
holiday present for his girl, and after
the stationer's clerk had showed him
boxes of writing paper, gilt covered vol
umes of poetry, scrap books, fancy ink
bottles and various other things, he fl
nally led him up to pile of albums and
annOunced:
'.Now, then, here is the very thing
you want. An album is the gift to be
appreciated ut all times, and the girls
are always crazy about 'em."
"They put photographs in 'em' don't
they?''
s:Thats what they are for. Your be
trothed will place your photo here in
the first page
ssOn the next will be the photograph
of her noble father. Then comes the
fond mother, followed by aunts who died
of quinsy, and uncles who got killed
while coon hunting. Then strings along
two OF three bald-headed babies sucking
sticks of candy, and the whole winds uI
with the picture of the old friend OF the
family who used TO trot your girl on his
knee when she hadn't q tooth in hel
head"
..Not by burned sightr' answered
the young man as he dropped the album
he had ben holding. ''He's hyena in
the bush, he is! After he knew we had
been engaged over n year, he Slipped
| over there one afternoon and Offered

Gold Water Drinking.

DIR. Dio Lewis says cold baths of the
skin are good, but 1t is doubtful if flood
ing the stomach on going to bed and on
rising is not. on the whole, the most
profitable form of cold bathing. Costive-
ness, piles, and indigestion are uniform
ly relieved by this morning and evening
cold douche. The quantity must be de-
termined by each one for himself. Two
or three swallows will do to begin with,
but the quantity will soon grow to q
tumbler full; and l have known persons
TO use much more with marked benefit.
If advisably managed, every dyspeptic,
will be greatly improved by this cold
stomach bath. Ssa

A Sunny Temperament.

The man of cheerful temperament
raises above all earthly ills. If his break
fast is late and he misses the train, he
hangs around the depot and tells stories
until the next train comes aloug; if his
wife is cross he laughs at her till she be-
comes good natured again; If his child
ern break all the window-glass in the
neighborhood,. he makes light of it; if he
fails to be nominated, he rejoices over
the defeat of the man who is; if the cleo
ton goes against him, he talks about the
weather and laughs at those who carry
long faces; in short, if you haven't got
a sunny temperament, cultivate one, if
the soil is deep enough. ~ i..

An Old-Fashionea sohool-Maste,.

Says %fftef.in the Huntingdon Free
Press: Mr.. Lamb taught asfd lived in
the basement room which Mr.. Arthur's 8
family had occupied To assist his ta-
BILE he cultivated the spare ground of
the lot west of the academy. 1t was in
potatoes and vegetables, among which
onions, which he AFFECTED, were con-
spicuous. One afternoon in the fall he
and a big boy (Horatio Eoomis) went
out and gathered the onions. The har-
vest ended, they returned. The teacher
Immediately sliced 4 number of onions,
and spread them upon the stove to
roast. Very soon he picked up a rosst-
ed slice, and offered it as treat to the
boy. Although it is over fifty years
ago. | laugh as see the erect form and
curled lip of young Loomis. and hear
his answer, s.Roasted orion! No, thank
you. I'd as leave eat parched mon
key" .
Jonathan Lamb was most ingenious,
eccentric. and excessive whipper. For
instance, one day, to expedite business,
he put George Governor Van Ness's
son) and self, together with one or two
other little rats, as many as he could
stick on, across his knees. Then, with
each cut of little rawhide, he whipped
four at once. Such wholesale punish
ments were necessary under his system.
Otherwise he might not have got
through with his whippings. One of
Mr.. Lambs fayorite methods was to
make a boy lie, back down, on the floor.
Then lifting the culprit by his arms and
legs-the eNtremitieS of which he
punched for the purpose swung him
stern foremost, against the wall. When
the boy had been thus sufficiently
bumped he was sent TO his seat. When
large boy was to be thus dealt with.
he called on some big boy to assist.
During the whipping process. he often
stuffed his tongue well into his left
cheek, seemingly to strengthen his eff
forts. Then the left eye was shut tight.
and the right eye severely opened.
Tongue and eye being in line. punish
ment began. His appearance on such
occasions was exceedingly ludicrous.

she is right, and if, while he attends her

and by others who assert that be is gone
to the Silver Reef mine In Utah, where
he has promised to meet the stock holders
Of the Stormont mine, and if possible
effect q settlement. A circular has been
issued and sent to each of the stock
holders of the Stcrmont Mine, stating
that an investigation has been made into
the financial condition Of the mine
and that its present liabilities amount to
$4,000, most of which is due for miners
wages and supplies, and that thi:
SUM must be raised before May II,
when the property, which is now levied
upon, will be sold, and calling upon them
to subscribe 25c. for each of their shares,
or ii not subscribed, if they will forfeit
their interest in the property, and stating
that more than one-third OF the amount
has already been subscribed. Matthews
stated that Clark had misspplied about
$50, 900 Of the money of tbs Stormont
Mine, which he had used in advancing
bis other mining schemes. A meeting

Too Wet.

New Albany, l2.-The heavy and
continuous rains of the past few days have
wrought great destruction along the val
ley of the White and Moscsttan rivers.
The entire country in the valleys of these
rivers lie inundated and farmers in Jack
SOD, Lawrence and Martin counties are
heavy losers. Fifteen miles ofttrack bed
for narrow gauge railway were washed
out, and fencing has been carried away
and in some places entire crops have
been destroyed. 3
