is truth, justice, virtue, Christianity, socialism, liberty, brotherhood You may exhaust oceans of ink and yet you will not be nearer to the point than when you used the first drop. There fore, I say, those principles are not suf- fcient, being obscure and indefinite. Meanwhile, life itself suggests solid, tangible and selfevident principle. Life itself is the greatest happiness. Every living being, whether by reason or by Instinct, tries to preserve life as long as possible. Therefore longevity is the universal principle. Everything that tends to increase human life IS good, and everything that checks it must be bad. The Christians say that life IS Gods best gift, and yet they justify hanging, shooting, imprisonment and other miseries. Let men strive for longevity, and then they will see clearly that it is consistent with their own in- terests, as well as with those of others, to be just, truthful, friendly, pea ceful, temperate, equal and free.'

Certainly He Would.

The other evening as @ muscular citizen was passing a house on Mont calm street lady, who stood at the gate called out to him:
 "sir ! I appeal to you for pro- lection l"
 "What's the trouble?" he asked as he stopped short
 "There's 8 man in the house, and he wouldn't go out doo prs when I ordered him to !"
 "He wouldn't, eh9 We'll see about that r
 Thereupon the man gave the woman his coat to hold and sailed into the house splitting on his hands. He found man down at the supper-table, and he took him by tH neck and remarked:
 "Nice style of brute you are, eh ? Come out O this or I'll break every bone in your body!"
 The man fought baek, and it was not until chair had been broken and the table upset that he was hauled out doors by the legs, and given 3 fling through the gate. Then, as the muscular citizen placed his boot where 1t would do the most hurt, he remarked "Now, then, you brass-faced old tramp, you move on or I'll finish you"
 "Tramp! tramp" shouted the victim, as he got up, "Pm no tramp own this property and live in this house P
 "You do?"
 "Yes, and that's my wife holding your coat !"
 "Thunder r' whispered the victim, as he gazed from one to the other, and realized that the wife had got square through him; and then he made grab for his coat and slid into the darkness with his shirt bosom torn open, @ finger badly bitten, and two front teeth ready to drop out.-Detro6t Free Press. /

GOred to Death.

A young man was gored to death by an elephant at the Alexandra Palace the other day. Several elephants, exhibited in Myers's circus, were viewed there by the public. All of these animals were suppose to be docile, and no one more dooile than large female elephant which was stone blind. This creature was called Blind Bill. The unfortunate young man was employed as a groom, and was always about the stables. It is not known how he was killed. One of the tusks of the elephant pierced the top part of his breast, while the pressure of the elephants head against the body was so great that it almost forced the heart of the dead man through the in- cision thus made. Death, it is sup. posed, was instantaneous.
