nothing in the paper could effect my

A few days ago, while the Ay-wheel
Of the Winchester Arms mAnufsctofy In
New Haven was revolving so rapidly
that the spokes were indistineuishable;
the engineer noticed a white blotch re-
volving with it, but sapposing that it
was merely sunlight falling on the
wheel. he at frs: made no investigation.
Two hours and a half later he observed
that the white streak was still there,
and, having stopped the engine, he
discovered 20 his amazement that the
apparition was a substantial white cat
which had been clinging to one of the
spokes since the wheel started. She
was very much exhausted, and the
Eunberlcss revolutions had made her
self crpsseyed, but she has since recov
cred her strength and visual perfection
and become the pet OF the establish
ment.
A Cincinnstian who had insured his
life went in swimming last summer, was
taken with cramps and was drowned.
The insurance company refused to paw,
pleading tn At death was not caused by
bodily in1rmities of disease but was
the result of voluntary exposure to
obvious and unnecessary dangers, and
that the nature and cause of death was
incapable of positive proof. Judge
Johnston, however. said that 1t could
net have been the intention of these
companies, whose principal offices
were located on the sea-board, to (
clude its p~olicy-holders from enjoying
swimming and bathing, and that the
evidence showed that death was occa-
stoned by cramps.

necessary negotiations.

This was evidently intended as a fresh
illustration of Lord Montford's ~eccen-
tricity but it is really much nearer the
terms in which the average man pro-
poses, then is the average proposal Of

A BOYS LuCK.-The Norristown
PA Herald in a -eccnt issue referred
among others, to the following cases
OF special interest. They are their own
commentary. Mr.. Samuel G.. Nyce,
resides at 308 Marshall street, aud
holds the responsible position Of jour
nal clerk in the Pennsylvania Legisla
ture, at Harrisburg. While MI. Myce
and family were IN the country recent
ly, his boy, aged three years. fell and
broke his leg. He recovered, but a
very troub,esom stiffness set in and lie
could scarcely use the leg. The injur-
ep limb was rubbed several times with
ST. Jacobs Oil, and the stiffness was SO
much reduced that the boy was able to
use his leg freely. DR.. Knipe said it
was the use of St. Jacobs Oil that
cured the stiffness. Mr.. Nyce himself
used the Great German Remedy for
toothache with good effect, and also
for a sprains and pains Of rheumatic
nature, end always with good effect.
Mrs. Nyce also says she thinks the Oil
is a SPLENDID thing, and she always
keeps it on hand.

The London Neaos publishes a Ioav
description given by a Russian gent e
man named Myer Bankavitch. who ha.
just arrived from Smilla, in the province
of Goborno, in Southern Russia. oi The
scenes there of which he was an eye
witness. The public drinking mousse
kept by Jews were first broken ut, aud
the casks ruled Into the sIr,e.., some
of them were smashed, and the People
drank the raw spirits out of the .t.eets.
These acts were followed by the break
ing open of the warehouse and place.
of business kept by the Jews. which
were wrecked, goods Of all kinds being
thrown into the streets and trampled
upon In the mad orgie which ensued.
Many of the ~populace of the town join
ed in the mob in their attack, viii 9
others, including even the police, in
cited them to continue their violence.
They broke into many houses and plum
dered them in the sight of the authori-
ties, grossly i'll treating the inmates in
every instance. One house WAS that of
an old man named Aabraham Miller,
who was much beloved and respected
by the Jews. he was seventy year of
age, and lived with his wife, son and
daughter -in-law and two grandchildren.
When the marauders attacked his
house all the family took refuge at the
top OF the premises, and tried to hide
themselves. They were discovered,
aud fercely attacked. The old man
aud his son. driven to bay, killed two of
his assailants, but they were soon over
powered and dragged down the stairs
aud cruelty maltreated. The women
we're outraged, and every member of
the family, including the children, was
atterward brutally murdered. / speak
from my own personal knowledge OF
these facts, and, from what / saw and
know, | solemnly declare that there
we're not less than ffty or sixty women
and children outraged by the rob.
One girl whom | knew intimately died
from the effects Of this revolving treat
ment. 1t Is impossible for me to give
any idea of the number of Jews killed,
but the whole of 1000 families were
attacked, and numbers were killed, es-
p~ecially in those cases where there was
any attempt made in the defense. The
reign of terror in Smilla lasted on one
occasion for thirty hours, there being
no attempt On the part Of the police OF
the military to auell the riot" Few,
if any, of the populace were arrested,
although the atrocities of the Jews
were committed wholesale and under
the eyes of the soldiers, who frequently
helped the rioters to maltreat the Jew
ish people.
The report of tt commission ap.
pointed at Warsaw to relieve the vic.
TINS of the anti-Jewish riots there
shows that altogether there we're 2,Oll
families ruined, numbering about 10,
900 souls. They include 246 publicans,
281 tobacconists and other retail shop
keepers, 498 eating house keepers, ano

The Two Kind of PrOspectOrs.

The old-time, genuine prospector feels
thoroughly equipped for the season if he
possesses slab of bacon, few pounds of
flour, little sugar, coffee, tobacco, and an
old pick and shovel. If he has a pack ami
imal, all right if ne hasn't its all the same.
And thus outtitted he scales the mountains,
sWims the rivers and skins the rivers for
months, happy as a stuffed goat. And its
his pluck and bone and sinew that brings to
light the mineral wealth of mother earth.
But there is another prOspectOr Of quite
different characteristics, who is met with too
often in this country. 1t costs all Of $500, or
more, to properly outfit him. He requires
thoroughbred horse, two pack animals,
mattress, six pairs of blankets, feather pill
low, dressing case with toilet soap and per-
fumery, a gold chronometer, magnifying
glass, chemicals, library of scientific works,
silk stockings, five gallons fourth proof
brandy, two siver mounted revolvers and a
needle gun, fishing tackle, half dozen chev-
oit shirts, cameo sleeve buttons, studs, etc.
And thus rugged he spins out the merry sum-
mer time prospecting along streams where
fish bites the best, sinking holes only where
trees cast d cooling shade, and always found
waiting for the water to fall SO as to ford the
flood without wetting his feet. He returns
in the fall without having discovered any
thing, Of course, but knows just where to
strike it next season.

UNGRANTED.

Where do they go-the ungranted prayers,
The ba6ied hope, lost love, and wasted yearning:
The sweet vain Dreams the patient sighted cares,
Cast on the tireess tide that has turning?
The seepess nights, the weary, anxious days,
The eager joy that blossoms but for bIghting,
Themocking CLEANS that glitter on our ways,
To vanish in one moment of deightng
Are they stored up in some great solemn bank,
Where Time hold for Eternity the key :?
AS the rich hues that in the westward sank,
May sleep enshrined beneath the sleeping sea
Or do they, blended in gracious breath,
Pervade the atmosphere If common fe,
Softening the terror of the doom of death,
Lulling the fret and fever Of the strife?
W ho knows who knows? Our darlings from us
glide;
Implorng clasp and passionate prayer are vain;
Our trust betrayed, missed aim, shattered pride
The great dunn river sweeps them to the main.
And yet, for something every gift is giyen,,
Through age on age. SO priest and poet saith.
Cling fast, fond hands; look up, true eyes, to heav
en-;
Through dusk and doubt hold to the saving faith.
