Girls, be kind to your brothers. Don't

them plenty Of sis,erly attention. They
are tiresome chaps sometimes, conse-
quential and overbearing, treating their
sisters like inferior beings. But never
mind that, girls; carry W tn you the two

pleasant to them; let them see and feel
you enjoy their company sometimes
equally as we'll as you do that Of some

er Will or Rob. or whatever his name
may be, and reward him with smile
when he turns over yonr music or gives
up his seat to youjust as you would any
other gentleman. Encourage him to
speak of his associates. A sister often
has more influence with brother than 9
parent has. If he can confide in his sis
ter regarding his friends and anuse
ments, you need have no fear of how he
spends his evenings away from home
Let him see that you take an interest II
bis studies or business. When he asks
you to sew on button or mend glove
don't put on an aggrieved ar; do i
cbeerfully and willingly. Treat biz
friends with politeness, even if they ar
not your style. Throw all the safeguard
you can around your young brothers, b!
sisterly love and forhearance. Try t.

prOphet, discourses as follows:
The general outlook for the weather
Of the summer season in Southern and
Southwestern sections is improving,
owing to the continuance Of very windy
weather IN N)rthern and Western sec
tions of Canada snd the United States.
Bnt "windv spring makes severe au
tumn;" therefore the outlook for the
autumn of 1882 is increasing in sever,
ity. NV theory of "weather relation
ships" is working jnst now in telling
manner all over the Northern Hemis-
phere. and l feel much greater conf
dence in predicting the periods of the
more marked disturbances. Hence, l
here with reiterate my previous state
ments respecting "a very cold and
stormy autumn" and early setting in of
extreme severity, with heavy snowfalls.

coolest periods in long term Of years

THROWING DICE.
A Lite Depending Upon the High
est Dice.

This story is authentic. 1t is found
10 the memoirs of Prussisn officer OF
distinction, who gives a simple. unaffect.
ed narrative Of the scenes aud events
through which he passed, and who be-
trays nowhere the least disposition to
exaggerate. The foll,wing remarkable
incident he gives as it came under his
own observation. He was at the time
on the staff Of Gen Wintertield, one OF
the most skillful and competent captains
OF his dav, and Winterfield was the gen.
eral in command at the time spoken Of.
Two soldiers had been condemned to
death. In drunkes CON iition at night
they hal assaulted an officer of the line.
and one of them had drawn knife upon
him, but he could no; positively say
which of the twain held it And the
men themselves did not know Neither
nf them rememheret anything about ii
So both of them were condemned 10 be
shot.
They we're both excellent soldiers, and
only one of them had been guilty ot
using weapon.
The officers Of the division, including
him who had been assaulted, asked thai
the men might be pardoned. At length
Winterfield said he would pardon one of
them. 0nly one bad held knife, and
only that one ought to die. He would
pardon one, and the men must them
selves decide which of them should be
shot.
How should the decision be made9
"Let ns. shake the dice" said one oI
the condemned.
And the other agreed 70 it. And anon
| it was agreed to by all interested The
two men took their places by the side OF
big drum and we're to throw the dice
upon it's heal. Two dice we're given
them and proper box for shaking.
The first man threw too siSes. He
sroaned in agony. He felt that he bad
consigned his comrade to death.
But when the second came to throw
he also threw two skies "Wonderful! -
cried the Iookers.on. They were ordered
to shake and throw agsin.
This time the second man threw frst
-t,so aces. "Ho! Good! You will
live, Peter" But when Peter came to
throw, the dice presented those same too
aces And now the beholders we're
wonder stricken, indeed.
Another throw was ordered and Peter
threw foe and deuce. The other
threw-fve-deuee. After the exctF-
nent had again subsidized the men shook
once more The first threw t,so fours
"Oh! now throw 6ves, and save your
self, Peter" Peter threw-t,c0,fo fours
At this point the Colonel ordered them
to stop. He went AMI reported the mar
velous result to Winter6eld. Said he !:
"Clesrly, General. Providence will have
those two men to be saved"
And saved they we're. The General
cared not to oppose the wonderful fate
of the dice. It did seem Pro vidential,
and so be accepted it.
And the redeemed soliiers lived to
prove that the saving fate had given
hack to Prussia two Of the very best
and brsvest OF her sons.

STAR ROUTE CASES.
Judge Wylie Announces a Very DeA
cided Opinion ia

clUcO OptulOus
WASHINGTON, May 29.-In the Star
Route cases Wilson continued his Argus
rhent on the motion to euash, in Tur-
ner's behalf, and the ground for the moA
ton is that Turner is not charged in the
indictment with the commission of any
overt act in furtherance of the objects Of
the conspiracy. e. s
After prolonged argument Judge
Wvlie overruled the motion to aussh the
indictments in the case of Turner and
Brady. and exceptions were taken to all
of the rulings. 3,
Cole presented aff1davits sworn to by
Reerdell, and as the latter stated he ab-

Of the ring, it was read.
Judge Wylie manifested the greatest
indignation as the reading proceeded, aud
interrupted Cote to say that to his own
knowledge it was wholly untrue. "If
that paper is filed give you warning l
will direct Reerdell to he prosecuted for
perjury" said the Court.
Cole endeavored TO explain that it was
perhaps his fault. inasn nch as he drew
up the affidavit and Reerdell had signed
it in a hurry. Perhaps he thought he
was swearing to his belief,not his knoM
edge, said Cole. But the paper had all
ready been fled and the Court refused to
allow its withdrawal, leaving the defend.

Twenty-Five Million of Bogus Gov
ernment Bonds in Circulation.


New YORK, Nav ga Washington
special says: The report that George s.
Bell, custodian OF the vaults at the Bu
reau OF Engraving and Printing. was
discharged for suspected completely with
counterfeit use of government dies, is
officially denied. The facts in the case
are that certain dies were removed from
the vaults on Bells reqaisiion, but in
stead of being returned, we're after hours
found lying on his desk. This being
brought to the notice OF Secretary Fol-
ger. he at once dismissed Bell for gross
carelessness, distinctly saying, however,
that there was no charge of suspicion
against the custodian's honesty. The
Sun. in leading editorial says it is due
the holders of these securities that a
thorough investigation be made Of the
fraudulent or forged Issues of govern
ment bonds. 1t is now known that The
plate used by Doyle, recently arrested
in Chicago. has been delivered to the
Secretary of the Treasury, and is not a
counterfeit. 1t is said nearly twenty
five millions of these fraudulent bonds
have been put on the market They
cannot be distinguished from the gen.
uine issues The general public is there
fore, at the mercy of this formidable
and dangerous combination of forgers,
counterfeiters and their confederates in
and ont of office Counterfelts of GER
tain United States bonds were produced
some fifteen years ago, and the mystery
attached to them has never been cleared
up, and never will he until the Republi-
can party is driven from power When
that change takes place, then the people
will know for the first time Why the
great ledgers OF the treasury were mu-
.ilated, why balances we're forced, and
why the statements of public debt we're
altered to the extent of more than .
hundred millions
