CATLETTsBURG, KY, November 1.-The
trains going from here TO Ashland last night
were searched by mob for the prisoners,
Neal and Graft. The streets were strongly
guarded by the military last night. The
military and prisoners started for Lexington
this morning. II is stated that the troops
gasrding NAal--aad- sfs--havo-tI ebarked
from the train and are in line of battle, ex-
pecting an attack from the mob.

Mental Labor.

Work is work, however performed.
Men who work with their hands are
often inclined to think of those whose
energies are devoted to the manage
ment of business affairs or who are en-
gagged in such occupations as require of
them much mental and little or no phys
ical eXertion, as having an easy time of
it. The farmer who tolls late and early
on his farm, taking no time to think,
indeed so far e%Xhausting his energies
with manual labor that he has not
strength to give to mental tasks, looks
upon his neighbor who thinks and
plans and studies his business, as one
who lives easily, who in fact is too lazy
to work. He sees only the pleasant
side of life, and draws therefrom incOr-
rect conclusions. We are all inclined
to over-estimate our hardships and to
see more of brightness and comfort than
there is in the lives of others. Work is
work whether it is performed with the
head or the hands; and the most eX-
hausting toil-that which can wear out
and break down a man most effectually
and speedily-is that which drives an
active mind to persistent effort. Men
who toll with their hands in whatever
capacity need to cultivate a higher APP
probation of mental labor.

Luncheon at Midday.

Physicians assert that q hearty meal
at midday is injurious to the health.
A five or six o'clock dinner, eaten slow
ly with the members of his own family,
is far healthier. a heavy midday meal
units professional men for carrying on
any business III the afternoon, as it
makes them heavy and sleepy, for
nature requires some kind of repose to
aid digestion. Our popular system of
eating is wrong. The majority of per-
sons thrust three heavy meals into
about ten hours. and leave the body
without a fresh supply of food for the
remaining fourteen hours Of the day
and night. Two good meal, morning
and evening, would be the proper plan,
with perhaps a light lunch or cracker
at about one o'clock in the day. This
would allow both Of the heavy meals
an opportunity to digest before the
next was taken. AS to q heavy mid,
day meal for men who have TO tear
around as if the next moment were to
be their last, it is perfectly ridiculous,
as the food, instead of digesting and
forming blood, muscle and brain, acts
as a block to those forces of nature
choking up as sewer rs it were. Ii is
best TO eat lightly in the middle of the
day.

q Million Years.

Croll, in this Climate and Time"
says: "Here is one way of conveying
to the mind some idea of what n million
years is. Take a strip of paperan inch
broad or more, and eightv-three feet
four inches in length, and stretch it
along the wall of Il large hall, or round
the walls OF an apartment somewhat
over twenty feet square. Recall TO
memory the days of your boyhood, SO
rs to get some adequate conception of
what a period of a hundred years is.
Then mark off from one of the ends OF
the strip one-tcnth of an inch. The
One-tenth of an inch will then represent
n hundred years, and the entire
length OF the "trip a million of years.

Could we stand on the edge of q gorge.
II mile and q half in depth, that had
been cut out of the solid rock by a tiny
stream scarcely visible at the bottom
of this fearful abyss, and were we
informed that this little streamlet was
able to off annually only one-tenth
OF an inch from It's rocky bed, what
would Il conception be of the prodi-
giCus length of time that this stream
must have taken to eXcavate the
gorgeP We should certainly feel
startled when, on making the necessary
calculations, we found that the stream
performed this enormous moun OF
work in something less than q million
OF years.

without asking where the asylum is or
how much it needs.
A traveller saw in Portland, Me,
while waiting half an hour in a rail
road station, IL barrel of ale rolled into
q saloon, an intoxicated man fight n
haok-driver, and two men drink whis-
ky from a bottle. He concludes it pos
sible that the Maine prohibition law is
sometimes broken in Portland.
James Dunmanway refused to let q
lawyer defend him, when put on trial
in Providence for nearly killing a man
with a hammer. His defense was a
plea of insanity, and he presented it
SO ~cleverly that the jury believed him
possessed of a very keen intelligence.
He wen to prison for two years.
An alarming epidemic of ~dysentery
prevails in some parts of Sweden. In
Malmoe, recently, there were about
one thousand sick, and the mortality
was increasing. The schools are
closed in consequence. Quarantine
has been established in Copenhagen,
and it is expected that it will be ordered
in the German seaports of the Baltic.
The Foster ranch, in the southern
part of Los Angeles county and the
northern part of San Diego county,
California, has been sold. The ranch
contains over 1876, 900 acres of the best
land in this country. The purchasers
are Messrs. Daniel Murphy of Gilroy,
o. Livermore of San Francisco, and
Richard O'Neil, representing the Ne
vada bank. The price is stated to be
$500, 900. Charles Croker holds a
mortgage on the property for 800, 900.
The estates of intestates dying with
out known next of kin bring large sums
annually to the British treasury in be-
half of the crown. These windfalls
have averaged over 800, 900 since 1876.
The large sum of S143,27 lis. I'd,
arising from fractions of a penny on
account of the dividends of the nation
al debt, has recently been transferred
from the Bank of England into the
treasury. 1t has never been customary
to pay fractions of a penny on govern
ment stocks.

The Readers of Novels.

New York Star.
What, in your opinion, is the proper
ton of novel readers to the entire
reading population of the United
StatesP'
Removing his cigarette from his lips,
the New York publisher to whom a
Star representative had addressed the
foregoing question, answered, with q
sort of positiveness which inheres in
the tone of a mar who gives you the
time of day from his pet watch:
"Well, pretty nearly 100 per cent
THAT sweeps in everybody.'
''Almost; why, the taste for fiction
grows every year; not in this country
alone, but throughout the educated
world"
''But does not the public taste for
fiction change almost as it grows? Are
people reading-not the same novels,
but the same kind of novels, which
were the rage twenty, or even ten years
ago?'
Changes, of course" said the pub
Usher. 'The stories that our fathers
and mothers laughed at and cried owe
are, most of them, dead as doOr-nails.
Stars once of the first magnitude in the
armament of fiction have waned TO
third places or paled altogether into
i%nvisibility. Scarcely anybody reads
Bulwer now. His stilted style sounds
serio-comical to-day. Pelham and
the rest of his long-winded tales are
about as dead as Mrs. Edgeworth's
novels, or as Thaddeus of Warsaw.
The age is full of literary iconoclasts in
the shape of critical readers, who are
made up doubtless of equal parts OF
conceit and a kind o infidel pessimism,
but they rule the roast, nevertheless,
and authors are compelled TO cater to
it."
