A curious experiment, according to
the Paris newspapers, has recently been
made with wine in that city. A current
OF electricity was passed through q
small cask of sour wine, and at the end
OF few days the wine was found to be
greatly improved in quality and to have
acquired that flavor which has hitherto
been supposed to have come of age. 1t
is said that the discovery of this new
maturing process is owing to the acci-
dent OF q thunderstorm having greatly
improved cask of bad wine in the cell
lar of vintner at Carcassonne.

Bankruptcy.

We have had many National bankruptcy
laws In the United States. They have all
had the same result. A number OF rgues
and some honest people have been enabled
to start in business again. The LAWYERS
and courts have eaten up the assets, while
the creditors have been t1eeced. Thomas
II. Benton said Of the bankruptcy law,
which was repealed in his time, that only
one per cent Of the assets was returned 10
the creditors. This has been the history of
all subsequent bankruptcy laws. The com.
mercial men of the country have laid b..
fore Congress new law, the provisions Of
which are based upon the experience Of
France and England. 1t does away with
fees, pays fixed salaries, and puts in force
machinery to wind up estates expeditiously
and cheaply. But six.tenths of the mem.
bets Of Congress are lawyers, ana our Ma.
tional Legislature will pass no law that
does not permit the plumber of the estates
Some revelations have recently come :,
light in New York showing the corruption
OF our courts due to lawyer legislation
Certain insurance companies and savings
banks which became bankrupt passed into
the hands Of receivers appointed by New
York Judges. In every case the assets were
divided between the lawyer and his receiv-
er. As all the expenses were paid by the
order Of court, there can be no reasonable
doubt that the judges themse;v had their
share OF the plumber. The LAWYER is su-
preme in American politics, and dearly do
our people have to pay for the miscarriage
of justice and the spolations of estates

Almost Buried Alive,

What appeared to be the remains Of Miss
Josephine Ryman, OF Evansville, Indiana,
lay on her bed at her home in that city.
The friends had come to see the corpse,
the priest had performed the funeral rites,
the shroud had been put on ami the body
was about to be removed to the coffin. Be-
fore doing SO, one Of her sisters proposed to
remove the hair. The long locks on one
side Of the head were cut Oft and then bo
dy was turned to remove the tres>es on the
other side. Suddenly there was twitch.
ing and the girl supposed to be dead was
sitting up in he'd, having just recovered
from trance. 1t seems she was conscious
OF the terrible fate awaiting her, and OF the
condition she was in. She recalls the priest
touching her arms and head, the last kisses
OF her relatives and friends, and what was
said about her; but, though conscious aud
In mortal terror, there she laid stiff and ris'
id. She could not move muscle Or make
sign, and she fully expected to be buried
alive. 1t was not until after they moved
her body to cut Off her hair that she was
able to give any signs OF lite. There is
scarcely doubt that many people are bur
led as dead who are only in trance. a
person who died recently in Boston lett
word for his physician to sever his head
from his body SO as to be sure he was dead
before committing him to the grave. But
after all, would not the death by modern
burial be painless one? Life would soon
be extinct after the coffin had been screwed
down. Juliet, in Shakespeare's play, Is Ia"
