not far from the shore during low-tide
after severe storm. The gun is five
feet long and is bound with many iron
bands after the Spanish fashion. Over
the top is curved handle pivoted upon
the sides of the barrel, and the breech
terminates in spike, which was prob
ably used for directing the aim. An
other and similar gun recovered at the
same place is preserved in the Tower of

Horrible Warfare.
From the New York Times. ]

1t is not generally known that the
practice of mutilatlon, which has figured
SO prominently in the records of recent
Egyptian battles, SO far from being q
mere passing outbreak of ferocity. is q
traditional custom, sanctioned by east
ern law. Both in Turkey and Egypt it
was was formerly the custom to punish
any ofense with the loss Of the member
that committed it. theft being punished
with the loss of hand, false witnesses
or reasonable speech with that of the
tongue, etc. In war the custom is still
universal among certain races. After
the Yemen instruction of 1871 the pres
ent writer returned with a Turkish de-
tachment which carried with it the head
of one of the insurgent Arab chiefs.
This practice was retorted upon the
Turks themselves with terrific effect by
She mOuntalneers of Montenegro In
1867. At the close of that war the
military hospital at Seutari was literally
crowded with earless aud noseless Turk
ish soldiers, and severed heads hung
around the tower that overlooked Get

thickly as apples on tree. These hor-
rible disfgurements served to democrat

fear of death could have doae. and she
parallel atrocities committed by the
Turks themselves gave sone show of
justice to the retaliation. But the prince
of Montenegro has now set his face
against this barbarify, and has happily
succeeded 10 completely puttlRg a stop

for over thirty years. Then A erected a
new dam below, and, it being of great
er height, the old dam was submerged.
A asserted bis right to control the Use of

G. disputed his claim, and asked for an
injunction against him. in this case,
Adams VS.. Manning, the supreme court
of Connecticut, at the present term, de-
cided that the injunction should be
granted. Judge Parker, In the opinion,
said: "The artificial use of the stream,
by long-continued use, became it's ma
tural condition. The erection Of the
lower dam would not give to A any ex-
elusive use of the water stored thereby,
but by submerging the old dam A prac-
tically continued that In existence, and
the rights of B and G in the old reser-
voir were continued in the new one"
The Judge added: "When controversies
arise between mill-owners, each of whom
has separate right to the water to be
drawn from common reservoir for
storage OF irregularly recurring occasions
of need, the time and manner depending
on the quantity in store, the needs of
others and established custom, it is the
proper office of court of equity to call
them into it's presence, and In one pro-
ceeding and by one decree determine
their respective rights and obligations.
A separate action at law to each for each
wrongful detention or drawing will fur

How TarantuIas Fight.
IFrom the Denver Tribune.1

There was recently received in Denver,
for store exhibition, two full-grown tar
antulas, one of the brown and the other
Of the black variety. The brown fellow
was Gagged In common cigar box and the
black one In glass jar. AS they could
not be exhibited to advantage in contriv-
anees of this kind, and as they we're not
very pleasant company to have running
about loose, a box almost two feet square
with a glass top was procured, on the
spread to make the animal feel at home.
The cover was then drawn and the two
spiders pitched into it from their sepa-
rate cages. No sooner did the one dis
cover the others presence than they
rushed at each other as viciously as two
panthers, and Immediately closed In
deadly embrace. They came together
with bound, and then twining their
long hairy legs about each other rolled
over and over in the sand, biting each
other savagely, and then Juggling with
all their might as If endeavoring to
crush each other by sheer muscular
power. Incredible as it may seem, this
sort of warfare was keptup for SIX hours,
during most of which time it could not
be seen that either was gaining the
slightest advantage, as neither showed
any sign of disposition to end the fight
except by the death of his adversary. At
Iaet the black one succumbed and rolled
over dead on the sand, while the victor
Immediately proceeded toreap the spolls
of his long battle. Selling his van
pushed enemy in his stout horns, or
p1ncers, or whatever contrivance he has
for that purpose, he rapidly tore him
limb from limb, and coolly proceeded, in
true cannibalistic fashion, to make a
meal of him. In very short time moth
ing was left except little pile of legs
and pieces of shell to mark the spot
where one tarantula had fallen and an
other had dined.

A Wide-AMake Woman.

One of the most noted women in New
York journalism is Miss MILDLY Morgan,
who does the cattle reports for some four
New York papers, among them the Times
and Tribune. She has acquired fund
of knovledge of cattle and horses, both
on the farm and turf, which may be en-
We'd by the most experienced male
sportsmen. Her journalistic career
dates from an interview with Horace
Greeley, whose rather jocose allusion to
the need of reporter of cattle sales was
turned to earnest account. Miss Morgan
is descended from an old family of Irish
gentry, and away back in her glrlhood
days she was the best horseback rider in
all Ireland. She is an immense, tall
woman, six feet two inches in height,
her shoulders are broad and square, SO
that she looks much like man in dis
guise. She has a fair and delicate COM
plexion, despite constant exposure to the
elements, and her eyes are blue and very
expressive.

A CHILD OF SEVEN.
BY A. c. swINBURNE.

All the bells OF heaven may ring,
All the birds of heaven may sing,
All the wells on earth may spring,
All the winds on earth may bring,
All sweet sounds together;
Sweeter far than all things heard,
Hand of harper, tone of bird,
Sound of woods at shutdown stirred,
yelling waters winsome word,
Wind in warm, wan weather.
One thing yet there is, that none
Hearing ere its chime be done,
Knows not well the sweetest one,
Heard of man beneath the sun,
Hoped in heaven hereafter;
Soft and strong, and loud and light,
Very round and very light,
Heard from mornings rosiest height,
When the soul of all delight
Fills a child's clear laughter.
Golden bells of welcome rolled
Never forth such notes, nor told
Hours so blithe in tones so bold,
And the radiant north of gold
Here that rings forth heaven.
If the golden-crested wren
Were a nightingale why, then,
Something seen and heard of men
Might be half as sweet as when
Laughs child of seven.

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.
TAKING OUT TAR.

IAhlNG OUI IAR.
Tar may be removed from wash goods
by putting enough clear lard on the tar
spots to penetrate them. Let them
stand for several hours and then wash
with soap suds.
TO PRESERVE OLD STOCKINGS.
Pale blue stockings which have faded
can have the color restored by dipping
them into hot water in which common
blu1ng has been poured, and some Jumps
of alum dissolved. Old white stockings
can be colored in this way, and do good
deal of service.
ANTI-BEDBUG.
L will give my recipe-a good one:
Mix together half pint of alcohol, the
same OF turpentine, and five cents worth
OF corrosive sublimate Wash your fur
n1ture with warm soapsuds, and then
wet rag with the above mixture, and
rub the places infested by the bugs.
Try this few times and you will not be
troubled long.-MisS MOiJie EnUer0rd.
HAY WATER.
A linen buster or dress may be kept
from fading by using hay water. Take
handful of timothy hay, cover it with
water, and boil an hour. Pour off the
water into tub, add enough water to
wash it well, also sufficient boiled starch
to stiffen it. Wash and rinse in the same
water, without soap. Turn the gar
ment wrong side out and dry in the
shade.
CANNED PEACHES.
In canning peaches, have one porce-
lain kettle with boiling water, and an
other with syrup made sweet enough
with white sugar for the peaches; pare,
halve, and drop them into the boiling
water; let them remain until silver
fork will pierce them; lift them out with
wire spoon, fill the can, pour in all the
boiling syrup the can will hold and seal
Immediately. (The can must be made
hot before thepeaches are put in Con-
tinue in this way, preparing aud sealing
only one can at time until done. Boil
down the water in the first kettle with
the syrup, if any is left; if not, add
more sugar, and quite nice marmalade
viii result This manner of canning
peaches has been we'll tested and is pro-
nounced by the experienced the best Of
all the methods.
PEACH CHEESE.
Take a number of peaches, rub them
carefully IN cloth to remove all dust.
Put them into a stewpan with small
quantity of water-about half pint to a
pound of fruit (for large quantities a
smaller proportion might be used. }
When the peaches are perfectly soft rub
them through fine sieve with wooden
spoon, laying aside some of the stones,
which should be broken, and their ker-
nels added to the peach pulp, stir it over
the fire until quite hot, add half its
weight in sugar, some lemon juice and a
little grated peel; stir the whole on the
fire until well thickened, put into shapes.
It should be quite hard when cold, and
turn out easily. If the pulp is very
watery boil for twenty minutes before
adding the sugar. This preserve will
keep for long time if sufficiently
cooked. This recipe was used with good
success In South America, and no doubt
would serve for peaches in all stages OF
ripeness, but only perfectly sound fruit
should be used. It is not necessary tC
peel the peaches.

sEAsoNABLE CLOTHING.


AT this particular time of the year
when the summer ends and autumn be-
gins, men and women should be more
cautious about their clothing, and es-
pecially their underwear than at any
other time of the year. The days are
quite warm but the nights are chilly.
Especially where the east wind comes up
unexpectedly at any moment, colds may
be caught and pneumonia may be the
consequence. Flannels should be worn
by delicate persons and it will also pay
a man to carry light overcoat on his
arm when he Is going out at night. A
summer cold is bad cold and should
be avoided, because it is easily caught
and hard to cure.
CUBEB-BERRIES FOR CATARRH.
A new remedy for catarrh is crushed
cubed-berries smoked IN a pipe, emit
ting the smoke through the nose;
after few trials this will be easy to do.
If the nose is stopped up SO that it is
almost impossible to breathe, one pipe
full will make the head as clear as bell.
For sore throat, asthma and bronchitis
swallowing the smoke affords immediate
relief 1t is the best remedy in the
world for offensive breath, and will
make the most foul breath pure and
sweet. Sufferers from that horrid dis
ease, liberated catarrh, will find this
remedy unequalled, and months use
will cure the most obstinate case. A
single trial will convince any one. Eat
ing the uncrushed berries is also good
for sore throat and all bronchial COM
plants. After smoking do not expose
yourself to cold air for at least fifteen
minutes.
SCALDS AND BURNS.
One of the simplest and most useful
remedies for scalds and burns is said to
be an embrocation of lime water and lin
seed oil. These simple agents combined
form a thick, cream-like substance which
effectually excludes the air from the in
jured parts and allays the information
almost instantly. The remedy leaves no
hard coat to dry on the sores, but soft
ems the parts, and aids nature to repair
the injury in the readiest and most ex-
pedltious manner. The mixture may be
procured In the drug stores; but if not
accessible, slack lump of quicklime in
water, and as soon as the water is clear
mix it with the oil and shake it well. If
the case is urgent use boiling water over
the lime, and it will become clear in five
minutes. The preparation may be kept
ready bottled in the house, as it will be
as good when six months old as when
first made

The partial payment of an undisputed
debt, after it is due, though it is accept
ed as payment in full, is not an accord
and satisfaction of the demand; but the
acceptance of the promissory note of
the debtor, or any other collated thing,

settlement of the debt, and the recovery
thereof will thereby be stopped, in the
