One of those sensational criminal

the crowd of our citizens who were in

Such cases have peculiar attraction
for some people.

SEVEN RIDDLES OF THE
WORLD.

Prof. Du BOis-ReymOnd is one of the
most prominent members of the Berlin
Academy of Sciences. When he delivers
his popular lectures there is not lee
ture room in Berlin large enough to ac-
cOmmOdate his hearers. He is far from
being Theist; still less is he a Chris
tian. In an address delivered by him on
"The Limits of Natural Science" he pro-
pounded what he called "The Seven Rid
dies of the WOTld"-riddles which have
never been explained, and the majority
OF which never can be by mechanical
laws.
The first riddle is the nature and
essence of matter and force.
The second is the origin of motion.
The origin of life is the third.
The fourth is the apparent design of
Nature.sJ
The fifth is the origin of conscious
ness.
The sixth is the origin of national
thought and language.
The last is the freedom of the will.
OF this Du BOis-Reymond says: "Our
seventh difficulty is none if one resolves
to deny the freedom of the will, and to
declare the subjective conviction of
freedom as an illusion; otherwise it is
inexplicable."

THE NORTH AMERICAN REVIEW.

The North American Review for Decem-
Der commands attention no less by the
"reminiscences of its contributors than
by the value and timeliness of its table
of contents. First, there is a symposium
on "The Health of American Women, -
regarded from three distinct points of
view: DIR. DiO Lewis considers the ques-
tiOn as it is affected by the prevailing
stylVe of feminine attire, especially by
the practice of tight lacing; Mrs. Eliza
beth Cady Stanton points out the many
injurious influences of social environ
ment; and DR.. James Read Chadwick,
sets forth the effects of education, eli
mate and food, and finally discusses the
question whether the modification pro-
duced in the European human type by
transfer to America lessons the fertility
of women. Gov. Buren, r. Sherman, Of
Iowa, writes of the Constitutional Pro-
hibitiOn" of the liquor traffic in that
State, and maintains that the measure
is in entire accord with the traditions
of the original settlers, and approved by
men of all political parties and all ma
tiOnalities. General Grant, in an arti-
Gle entitled "An UndeserVed Stigma"
states the facts of Gen. FitZ John POr-
ter's case, and argues that the sentence
of the court martial that cashiered him
was based on a miscOnceptiOn of the es-
sentlal circumstances. Richard A. Proc
tor writes of ''The Influence of Food on
Civilization" discussing with much
learning and force some of the most in
teresting sociological problems of the
present day and of the near future.
Prof. Fisher, of Yale College, in defining
the causes Of "The Decline of Clerical
Authority" holds that this decline,
which affects the status of church and
minister only as a part or function of
the secular State, is by no means to be
regretted, and that the spiritual inhu-
ence of the church and its ministry is

tiOns of Success Oh the Stage, the con-

THE HAWK AND THE HEN,

A Ash-hawk who had way of throw
ing three cards about in a dexterous
manner, one day met hen and invited
her to bet on his game.
But don't understand it."
"Why, all there is about it, toss these
three cards so and so, and you bet that
you can pick up the ace of spades, for
example,"
II don't want to take your money"
protested the hen.
"0h, as to that, you are quite well
come"
"WeL, here's an that pick up the
ace."
The hawk smiled as he thought how
easy it was to throw snuff in a hens
eyes, but, lol Biddy picked up the card
she had named and raked in the sugar.
''Pll be hanged if / am not completely
discouraged trying to make an honest
living" cried the hawk, as he flung the
cards down in disgust; and he thereupOn
not only turned rObber, but ate the hen
to boot.
MORAL:
Never discourage industry and integ-
rtty, by taking money from three-caTd
monte man or faro bank.

AN EASY CLAIM SETTLED.


Less than month ago a woman about
56 years of age walked into the head
quarters of Georgia railroad, annOune-
ed her name and said she had come to
make a settlement.
Settlement of what?' asked the su-
perrin iendent.
'EOr killing my old man."
"Where?"
About fourteen miles from Macon" !"
And so it proved. When the eircum-
stances were hunted out it was found
cut that she twas the wife of a man
who had been killed while walking on
the track, and no one had been able to
identify him.
why didn't you come here sOOnerP'
he asked.
"Jqst heard of it the other day." she
replied. 81 supposed the old man was
parading around somewhere, and would
come home when his knees wanted new
patches"
"And what damage do you ask?"
We'll, 1t was long time ago, and my
grief has been sOftened up good deal,
and L reckon that $25 and pass to At
lanta will be about right.
Settlement was made on the spot, and
she took the next train for the capital

Piles.

PILES are frequently preceded by
sense of weight in the back, lOins and
lower part of the abdomen, causing the
patient to suppose he has some affection
of the kidneys or neighboring organs
At times, symptoms of indigestion are
present, as fiatulency, uneasiness of the
stomach, etc. A moisture, like perspi-
ration, producing a very disagreeable
itching, particularly at night after get
ting warm in bed, is a very common at
tendant. Internal, External and Itch
ing Piles yield at once to the applica-
tiOn of DR.. BOsankO's Pile Remedy,
which acts directly upon the parts
affected, absorbing the TumOrs, allaying
the intense itching, and effecting a per-
manent cure where all other remedies
have failed. Do not delay until the
drain on the system produces perma-
nent disability, but try it and be cured.

A Strange Verdict.

From what we can learn, the trial of Dough
ty does not appear to have been conducted
upon the principles Of justice so far as the jury
are concerned. The evidence, it is said,
clearly showed the completely of Doughty in
the Laredo stage robbery, and when the Jury
at first retired ten were for verdict of guilty,
and two for not guilty. After being hung all
night the jury wanted to deliver verdict to
the effect that Doughty was cognizant OF the
robbery but not guilty as indicted. This YER
dict the judge, of course, would not accept,
and two hours later the jury returned verdict
of 'not guilty" This SO incensed Judge Tur-
ner that he discharged the jury with the re-
mark: at may be according to your conscience
Il hope it is so'' and declined to allow them
to perform their duties any longer.
If the facts are reported 10 US, and the evil
dence, as alleged, sustained, it would appear
that the case has ended by undue influence
in gross miscarriage of justice.
