He didn't Want to be Lynched

A COW pony that looked very much as
if it was far gone in consumption, was
tied to a lamppost, and standing on the
sidewalk in front of Nose Schaumburg's
emporium, on Austin avenue. The color
ed porter came out and seeing the pony
tied to the lamppost, and old uncle Moses
leaning against it, said b~anteringly:

and were doing their trading at the

Schaumburg came out in his shirt

RepOrtOrial Enterprise.

A story of a reporter who, in order to
have an account of an execution in the
afternoon paper which employed him,
asked the Sheriff to hang the condemned
man an hour earlier than the time set,
has been going the rounds lately in one
form and another. The Dramatic
Times vouches for the truth of the Incl
dent, and gives what he declares to be
the true version. The reporter was
Mr.. Kenward Philip, then engaged on
the Brooklyn Eagle. He was sent to
edo" the hanging of a man at Plain
field, n. j., and found the execution
was not to take place until midday, which
would not let him back to Brooklyn in
time to do it justice. He went to the
Sheriff and told him that the failure to
hang the man at 10, as announced,
would knock him out of IS at least, and
asked him to put the ceremony at IL, so
that he could get the 80 train back.
To Mr.. Philips surprise the Sheriff was
very indignant, but finally promised
that, if Philip could persuade the con-
demned man to be hanged an hour
sooner, he would only be too glad to
get the disagreeable job off his hands.
Mr.. Philip went tothe murderer's cell and
told him plainly what he came for.
They had drink together. The un-
fortunate found Philip very agreeable
companion, and said that, so far as he
was concerned, it didn't matter much
whether he was hanged an hour sooner
or later. Philip then wrote a letter to
the Sheriff embodying the request, the
condemned man signed it, and he was
| hanged at IL. It was subsequently as
cert;ained, however, that the condemned
man cuuId nos read writing, and the
painful doubt was expressed whether he
knew what he was signing. But PhilI
caught his train.

What Makes a House Beautiful.

It is an excellent thing to have a we'll
kept house and beautifully appointed
table, but after all the best cheer of
every home must come from the heart
and manner of the home mother. IF
that is cold and this ungracious, all the
wealth of India cannot make the home
pleasant and inviting. Intelligence, too,
must lend its charm, If we would have
home and Eden. The severe style of
house order neatness seldom leaves much
margin for intellectual culture. Even
general reading is considered out OF the
question for woman so hurried and SO
worried with her scrubbing and polish
ing and making up garments. A simpler
stvie of living and house furnishing
would set many bonded slave at liberty
and add vastly to the comfort of all in
the house.
Hospitality rarely prevails in those
spotless line-and-lettered houses. Com
pany disarrange the books and disorder
the house, which had work enough in il
before. The mother cannot throw of
her household cares and sit down for 9

friend of her childhood. Still less car
she cntnr irto ,he JOYS and pleasures
rieur and delish ial TO her own children.
because of the extra work OF clearing
away it will be likely to make.
With all your tolls to make a house
beautiful, do not neglect the first eie
ment OF ALTO beautify yourself, body
and soul. A sweet, loving word and
warm clasp of the hand are far more to
guest than the most deliberately EN-
broidered lambrequins at your window
or the most exquisite damask OF you

have been remembered with pleasure
because of the beautiful loving presen c.
there, and there are stately palaces
which leave the impression of an iceberg

Icebergs Viewed EstheticalIy.

1t is a pity that the iceberg should be
so highly dangerous, for nothing That
floats upon the deep is more impressive
and picturesque. Such beautiful objects
ought to be fixtures, that they might be
sighted and their grandeur enjoyed
without more risk than lovely stretch
of coast or green and cleaning South
sea island offers. Yet, If the truth mast
be told, something Of the composite
emotion which the spectacle Of an Ice
berg excites is due to the element of
fear which the spectacle conveys along
with its majesty and beauty. Figure a
sea slrouded in driving mist and rain
and feather particles OF snow the bill
lows leap out Of the thickness as though
born Of the void from which they curl,
combing over in green trans
parent arches and breaking into
dazzling spaces Of foam the decks are
dark with wet, and the ship has gray
and frozen look as she sweeps over the
kissing and soaring and trampling
surges toward that whirling fog curtain
which ever recedes before her while 1t
closes upon her astern. Suddenly q
loud voice rings out OF the pallid vague
ness Of the forecastle and even as the
helm is shifted there shapes itself with
terrible abruptness out of the obscurity
ahead huge outline-an object like an
island, fantastically covered with NINA
rets, steeples, towers, looming bastions
and cathedral-like forms, which vanish
in the rushing folds of the pale, rain
swept sea- mist. The thunder of the
sea shifting its base and boiling
up in heights of sparkling smoke
awakens thousand sullen echoes III the
crystal caverns, in the gloom of the pre-
and heights of the enormous berg. As
the voyager sweeps past he hears the
cracking and rending of ice, he marks
the briiliancy Of snow upon the jutting
points which open out upon the sight
with startling suddenness, amid flaws in
| the pouring and eddying mist: and he
feels the singing breath OF the frozen
mass on his cheek as the gale blows past
[, it down upon him. AS the ship runs
roaring by the thunder-laden apparition,
large Jumps of ice shower upon her, and
over the rail, the green fragments may
be seen colored to the very complexion
Of the deep, half leaping out Of the swirl
of foam alongside and vanishing asterr
amid the swoop Of the rushing waters
What pen can describe the desolation O.

out Of space, filling the eye for moment

The House Fiy.

The most persistent companion of
man is or APPS the house fly. It has
followed I'm everywhere ia his own con-
veyances, and is found, SO far as we
know, wherever civilized man has estab-
lished himself. Our American house fly
was described as q distinct species
(llusca harpyia) by Barris, but Pack
ard found ii, after critical comparison,
specifically identified with the Luna III
species. Already, with the growing
warmth, the hy begins to show its fanlil-
lar form in cur houses, and to inspire
the careful housekeAner with feelings
anything hut agreeable. Whence comes
ii? Row has it passed the winter? Such
questions are often asked. Let us an-
swer them. Not all who have watched
the fly posing or darling noiselessly
and gracefully III mid air or making his
tolst. have realized that at one time it
was crawling maggot, as unlike its
perfect self as two things we'll can be.
The eggs are about four hundreiths of
an inch long, one-fourth as wide, dull
white in color, and pitted with elongate,
hexagonal depressions-mere whitish
specks to the unaided eye, laid in little
agglutinatcd piles in warm manure or
in decomposing vegetation, especially
that about our tables and barn-yards.
From eighty to hundred are laid at q
time, and probably at three to four diff
ferent intervals by hesanefy, although
on this point we have no exact date.
Within twenty-four hours in summer
they hatch into footless maggots which,
after rioting in filth till their tender
skins seem ready to burst from reple-
ton, become full fed in less than week
and, descending into the earth or shell
tering under some old board, contract to
brown, shining objects, rounded at both
ends, and technically known as puparia.
! Within the darkness eff this hardened
skin profound changes rapidly take
place, and the insect passes through the
pupa to the perfect state, and finally, in
about five days, the anterior end Of the
puparium is pushed off, and the fly
quickly crawls out. At first its parts
are pale and soft, and it's wings are
crumpled and useless, but these soor
expand, and suddenly, without practice
or teaching, the newly fedged fly wings
its way to your table to mock your dis
pleasure, to share your repast. The
length of time required from Matching tc
maturity varies with the season ani
temperature. but will not exceed ter
days in midsummer, while the life of the
perfect fly lasts about three weeks at thu
same season. AS cold weather approach

perish. A few Of the more vigorous fe

Sick Children.

It is better to take your child to the
doctor unnecessarily than to postpone
this duty and find that it is too late. A
few hours in the diseases of children
may make all the difference between
hopeful and hopeless cases.
When you take counsel OF doctor
give him your implicit confidence. Do
not permit any friend-nven though the
friend be an experienced cid mother and
nufse-to d} lurb confidence in the doc
tor. Follow no advice that is against
what he has said. If you lose confidence
in him get another physician.
When child is old enough to know
what you mean, never threaten it with
the doctor. It may be very important
some day that your child should not be
frightened at the doctor, but regard him
rs friend and helper.
A sick child demands a nursing moth
er, who has tact, patience, firmness add
ed to her affection. With these so much
can be done; without them the battle
may be hopeless from the first.
It is asserted that every year 5000
children die in New York who need not
die if proper care were taken of them.
High heated terms have much to dc
with these deaths. Every hour that g
young child is exposed to temperature
above IS or 8S degrees, in crowded
neighborhood, it is robbed of vitality
High heat acts injuriously on its blood

The Beef Supply.

Notwithstanding the enormous adj
vance made in cattle raising during the
past twenty years or SO, the increased
supply, even in favorable seasons, has
not been at all commensurate with the
increase in the demand for beef The
ratio of increase in cattle is less than
that in population, SO that even with no
change in dietetic habits the demand
for beef would tend steadily TO ourrun
the supply. But our appetite for beef
increases much more rapidly than our
numbers. The marketman makes his
daily rounds with fresh beef in hun
dreds of communities where salt pork
was eaten almost exclusively twenty
five years ago; and generally through
out the country beef has largely dis.
placed pork on the tables of farmers,
mechanics and well. TODD people. This
ment in the scale of popular living due
to general prosperity, but more, per-
haps, to the influence of an active school
of would-be health 1eformers who have
persistently decried pork as an article
of food and created widespread and
unreasonable prejudice against it.
Leaving out of consideration any posi-
BILE increase in the demand for beef for
expectation, we may reasonably antici-
pate that the home demand for beef will
continue to increase as fast, if not faster,
than the population does; and there can
be no marked decline from the present
excessive prices until the supply of beef
cattle is brought up to the level of, the
populv requirements. It is not the
prime cost of beef cattle in the field. or
their necessary cost at the shambles
after being driven or carried half across
the continent, that chiefly determines
the price of the meat to the consumer,
but the single fact that the supply is
relatively so mea9er that cattle raisers
can ask and readily get prices which en-
able them to make 20, 80, even so per
cent profit per annum on the money
invested-sellipg for cents a pound,

pound to raise.-Scieatifc Anaerican.
