A Lewiston, Ills. special dispatch
says that James Ii. Arnett, q promi-
nent citizen living one and a half
miles east of that place was shot by
q son. A reporter repaired to the
scene Of the tragedy and found Mr..
Arnett lying in bed in great agony,
while streaks OF blood were smeared
over the pillow. slips. There was a
woman in the case. Mr.. Arnett has
for some time been enamored with q
buxom widow Of thirty-two Sum
mers, whose smiles and caresses have
caused him, though fifty years OF
age, and the father of nine children
and the husband of most estimable
wife, to forget, in q measure, his mar
ital vows. Mr.. Arnett has in days
gone by been Jealous member OF
the Methodist Episcopal Church OF
that place, but was tried last April
by an ecclesiastical court and dis
missed for alleged immortality in ref
erence to his relations with this wild
ow. The wife OF Mr.. Arnett natural
ly objected to the alienation Of his
affections, aud it has been the occa-
sion of several domestic scenes, ter
minating in the tragedy Of last week,
which laid the errant father and hus-
band upon what is almost certain to
be his death bed. The doctors pro-
nounce the wound mortal. Mr.. Ar
nett, in broken accents, said that
there was no provocation for the boy
shooting him. He and his wife were
having q few hot words over domes-
tic troubles. She continued to scold
him, and at last he told her II she
did not keep still he would put her
out of the room. The boy came

projecting his knees and feet into the
cold air outside the mattress. German
beds, almost without exception, are
single, yes, very single-so much SO that
the occupant if he attempts to deviate an
inch or two from a horizontal position
finds himself sprawling on the hocr. The
sheets, bed-blankets, etc., are made Just
to fit the bed and are never wide enough
to "tuck in." They are seldom but an
inch or two wider than the mattress, and
it requires the skill and experience Of an
acrobat, especially with foreigner, to
keep the bed-clothes evenly balanced
over him. 3 And then the grumblers
grumble the at pillows, which they
declare afe either too large or too small
too hard, or too soft; and that the only
people who know how to make comfort
able pillows, and who have them, are
the Americans. Many of the hotels and
boarding houses here adopt the French
pillow, which is about half the size of
the mattress, and stuffed out so hard and
plump that the only benefit the tired
traveller gets from it is to have it to serve
as q rest for his back while he sleeps in
sitting position. The majority of pillows,
however, found in Germany are made
wedge-shaped, Of the same material as
the mattress, and come to point near
the center of the bed. On these the
sleeper, if he sleeps, rests on al inclined
plane, and looks like body on one of
the narrow planks in the morgue at Paris
with sheet thrown over it. I-think it
would be difficult to find a bed in this
country that would measure over five
feet ten, or six feet at most, between the
head and foot board; and as for wide

Fixing the Yard Measure.


There is little difficulty now about fix
ing the standard, but in early times,
when science had not attained its pres
,ent exactness, there were constant bick-
erings and wrangles. Perhaps the first
successful attempt to obtain uniformity
was achieved by Henry l., who settled
the matter by decision curiously arbi-
trary and final. The yard was to be the
standard OF every measure, and the
length Of the yard was not matter of
feet or inches, but was laid down once
for all as the length Of the kings arm.
The decision was apparently simple and
intended to be final. The king often set
tied in person matters of dispute be-
tween his subjects, aud in differences as
to questions Of measurement there could
always be ready reference to the royal
arm. In Edward lis time new
criterion was hit upon. The standard
was settled by statute, which Or
dained that ''three barley. corns, sound
and dry, should make IN inch" As
compared with measurement by the
royal arm, this standard was almost
democratic in its suggestion, but the
bariey-corn showed Enthusiastically the
performance OF the agricultural inter-
est. The inch being thus ascertainea, it
was easy to construct from that datum
the foot, yard, perch, and even the acre.
The barley-corn, indeed, figures con-
stantly in attempts to arrive At the
methods of computation The object,
however, seems to have been to get a
standard that was accessible rather than
one that was invariable. The authorities
realized that seeds plucked from the full
ear were more. popular as q refepence
than the proportions Of the royal arm.
What'was done with the inch had already
been done with the ounce. The consent
Of the whole realm was obtained to the
proposal put forward in the fifty-first
year of Henry ILL.,, that 20 pennies
should make an ounce, and that one
penny should weigh 80 wheat-corns
taken from the midst of the ear Of corn.
And so matters stood for many years.

The Man Of Few Words.


To prove the garruity of some travel
ers We state the following facts: A
young man, some time back, arrived at
an inn, and after alight;ng from his horse
went into the travellers room, where he
walked backward and forward for some
minutes, displaying the utmost import
ance. At length he rang the bell, and
upon the waters appearance gave him
an order, nearly as follows: Waiter!"
the waiter replied, "Sir." II am man
of a few words, aud / don't like continu-
ally ringing the bell and disturb
ing the house. I'll thank you to listen
tci THAT I am going to say" The waiter
place bring me glass Of brandy and
water, cold, with little sugar, and also
a teaspoon; wipe down the table, throw
some Goals on the fire, and sweep up the
hearth; bring me couple of candles,
pen, ink, and paper, some waters, little
sealing-wax, and let me know what time
the post goes out. Tell the ostler to
take care Of my horse, dress him
well, stop his feet, and let me know when
he is ready to feed. Order the chamber
maid to prepare me good bed. take
care that the sheets are we'll aired,
clean night"cap, and glass of water in
the room. Send the boots with pair
OF slippers that can walk to the stable
in; tell him I must have my boots cleaned
and brought into this room tonight, and
that shall want to be called at S O'Clock
in the morning. Ask your mistress what
l can have for supper; tell her ! should
like to have roast duck or something of
that sorts desire your master to step in,
| want ask him few questions about
the diapers of the town." The waiter
answered eyes, Sir" and then went to
the landlord and told him gentleman
in the parlor wanted great many things,
and among the rest he wanted him, and
that was all he could recollect.

A Great western Cattle Range.

FoRT McKISSEY, Wy, June 23.-
The country under the Military
protection OF Fort Mckinney ex-
tends from the Montana line on the
north to the Platte river on the south,
aud from The Big Horn river OH the
west tc the Celle F0urche on the east.
and embraces the great cattle range
of Wyoming. In round numbers
this is about 300 miles square, or
about 5000 square miles in area, a
little larger, therefore, than Illinois
and Indiana together, In this area
there rae now grazing 100000 head of
cattle worth S27 per head, amount
ing to S13,500,000, 20 which. can be
added the value Of horses and ranches
of the cattle men, and the farmers
and stock Of the grangers, making
ct least S15, ,000.000 of property under
the protection of this one post. The
noteworthy consideration in this
connection is that six Years ago this
was absolutely an Indian country.
