Frozen for SeVen Months.

john II, Ford, Ice dealer, purchased
the stock in the Burdick ice-hoHse in
Preston this season. In taxing a $50
pound ice cake from one Of the houses a
day or so ago, he noticed that a.frog was
imbedded In the centre of the cake.
Workmen carefully cut away the ice
and liberated the imprisoned reptile.
1t was stiff. with legs extended at full
length. Some one suggested that with
proper treatment the frog might be
resuscitated. A pail of water was
procured and the animal was placed in
it. In a few minutes it showed signs OF
life and soon was as lively as any other
frog. The pail containing the frog was
hung up in a shed and tbs next morning
the animal was gone. The ice in which
the frog was imprisoned was cut last
February, SO that it must have been
frozen for nearly seven plonths.

Mrs. Garfield Branching our.

Friends of the Garfield fs mily express
the opinion that Mrs Garfield, who now
ranks among the wealthy women of the
country, intends to branch out exten-
sively. The handsome establishment
in Cleveland which she has lately pur-
chased, cannot, they say be maintained
It less expenditure than $1,000 per
annum. Since the death of the late
President Mrs. Garfield has ouly rc.
sided for about two months at the home
place at Mentor, and 1t is::::uuderstood
to be her intention to make Cleveland
her permanent residence.
Mrs. Garfield does not expect or care
to come to Washington any more. Dur.

AFUGITIVES ARREST.
How Major PhIDpS was brought Go

bav and arrested I'm Ontario.
The Philadelphia North American
gives the following account of the ar
rest of Philadelphia tugttive Superln-
tendent of the Aims House:
The news that Major Phipps, the ab-
sonding Almshouse superintendent,
had been seen In Canada, and that his
arrest would soon follow, created con
siderable excitement yesterday. 1t
appears that one of Pinkerton's detec-
tives from this city saw the Major in
Hamilton, Ont on Sunday, and ap.
piled to the Chief of Police of that
place for an order of arrest. Finding
that the ball piece taken out by Coro-
ner Janney, Phipps' bondsman In the
Killiam matter, was mot sufficient to
bring the fugitive back, word to that
effect was telegraphed to this city.
instructions were sent the detective
to arrest the Major, and papers charg'
ing him with forgery would be Tor
warded. An indictment to that effect
will be framed by the District Attor-
ney, based upon evidences from the
officer of the City Controller and
Guardians of the Poor. The stub
books remaining show that in several
cases the Major or an accomplice sign
ed the names OF contractors who never
received their warrants, two prominent
cases being those of Seeds and Fergu-
son.
A bail piece is valid for the arrest of
q fugitive in any State Of the Union,
but is not recognized outside of the
United States.
The extradition laws are very strict (,
and positive prima tacle evidence o
guilt must be adduced before foreign
governments, or they will refuse to re-
turn a fugitive. Under the Canadian
law the authorities there will not
recognize elm beZzlement or larceny
committed in this country, and for that
reason the indictment charging forgery
will be framed.
Acting under the instructions re-
cei we'd from Philadelphia, the Pinker-
ton detective arrested tho Major in
Hamilton about six o'clock last evening
the warrant upon which the arr est was
based being issued by Judge St. Clair
of that place and charging Phipps with
forgery. His wife was also taken into
custody. 1t Is not believed that the
Major will voluntarily return; therefore
the tedious details of procuring his ex-
tradition, which may consume weeks or
months, will have to be gone through
with before he can be brought to this
city. He was in about his usual health
when arrested.

study Hours Are Too Long.
.om the NaW YORK Herald


By some mental process that is be.
yond the comprehension of any one
who Ia not a lunatic the study hours
of children in most public schools are
longer than any mature mind could
endure without harm. Five hours is
the usual daily duration of school time /.
A man might be equal to this for five
days in seven, but upon the boy or
girl is imposed two or three hours of
extra work in the shape of study at
home. 1t is utterly senseless to claim
that any child can endure such mental
strain for nine months in twelve with.
out serious mental injury. As rule
children do not endure it; they become
fretful, unreasonable and stupid, the
intellectual strain is none the less,
and the consequence is that the public
schools are annually responsible for
hundreds of thousands Of weakened
minds. Many teachers know this and
some admit it, but take refuge in the
question, What can we do? What they
can do is to condense their text books
until the amount OF essential informa-
tion now impaired imposes not more
than one half of the present tax on the
memory. They can improve their
methods until the old fashioned parrot
like recitation is replaced by system
of questioning that will interest pupils
to such degree that lessons will be
remem bered without effort instead of
forcibly crammed into the memory as
now they are. All that children
really learn in public schools can be
taught in half the time now occupied
and with half the mental expenditure
now required; parents agd other private
tutors have demonstrated this so often
that existing public school methods
are beginning to seem inexcusably
wasteful and disgraceful.-N. Y. Her.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 18.-On the

Congressional Committee believe that
they have q right to feel hopeful with

sional Districts. Secretary Henderson
received to-day the following letter
from trustworthy gentleman at Ra-
leigh, N. G..
This is, beyond doubt, the most heated
campaign that ever occurred in North
Carolina. The Liberal movement has
taken the Democracy by surprise.
III undreds of the best men have deser.
ted and became active workers against
them. The masses have caught the
fever, aud are as enthusiastic as the
more active workers, and our hopes
and expectations point to the election Of
Dockery by at least 10000 majority.
We look with certainty to Liberal
Republican majority in the Lower
House of our General Assembly; and
we have no doubt that after this cleo
tion the Democrats will not make q
formidable fight in future campaigns.
Our prominent stump speakers are
Dockery, Canady, Leach, Price, Young
with many equally powerful but of
local reputation. The Bourbons are
not inactive. They have marshaled
all their "big dogs" and none growl 30
hugely as the so.called Governor,
Jarv is; but his inference has fallen into
the yellow leaf nnd tells against his
party. Bennett, Vance and Co. are
stupendcus frauds and humbugs and
make no impression outside of their
own ranks. Indeed when I tell you
that they all show the white feather
I speak fact well authenticated by
all who come into contact with them.
You may tell your friends that North
Carolina will shake eff the Bourbon
yoke next November, and in the next
Presidential election will be tound
among the States to be counted as sure
tor the Republican candidate. Our peo.
pie are iubilant and happy. The
mountain boys are excited ut the pros
pect of Republican success, aud are
working with their might. The East
will bring out its entire strength, and
when aroused rs they now are, are in
