loss Of the Rodgers.

IRKuTsK, Siberia, April 1S.-I
have this morning received startling
news from Mr.. Jackson, the special
Commissioner sent in search of the
Jeannette's curiors. Heapparent-
ly forwarded the dispatch bya cour-
ier. 1t ran as follows: From the
banks of the Adam River, April 6,
1882 l haYe just met a courier
bearing dispatches from w. H. Gill
der, the Herald correspondent with
the Rodgers, whom the courier had
accompanied from Kolymsk, on the
Kolima River, to Verkhoyansk, 400
miles north of Yakutsk. Glider had
made a journey of2000 versts among
the Chuckches. He was sent forward
with the news that the Rodgers had
been burned and sunk; that Lieu
tenant Berry, with the officers and
crew, thirty six in number, are at
Tiayka, near Cape Serdze, and that
vessel should be sent for them as
early as possible.

An Indiana Meteor.

Professor Daniel Kirkwood, of
Bloomington, Ind, describes in The
Scientific American what is termed
the great meteor of March 8, 1882.
At about IL O'Clock, he says, on the
night of March 8, 1882, meteor of
great size and briiliancy exploded
over Kosciusko County, Indiana, in
in latitude 4l0 90 n, longitude 1S0
so w. from Washington. The fol-
lowing account of the phenomenon
is derived from The Warsaw Repub-
Ecan of March 25, 1882 and from a
letter written by Mr.. Albert Parker,
an intelligent and trustworthy OBJ
server.
Mr.. Parker was one of a party of
five young men, who at the time of
the explosion, were riding in an
open carriage or wagon about eight
miles northeast of Warsaw, the coun-
ty seat of Kosciusko County. The
sky was entirely covered with clouds.
and snow was rapidly falling. Con-
sequently the meteor could not be
seen till it had passed below the
clouds; and as the explosion took
place within less than a second after
its appearance. no trustworthy esti-
mate could be formed of the time of
flight. The motion of the meteor
was from south to north, and was
accompanied by a noise resembling
that Of a rapidly moving train OF
cars. Its color was a bright red, and
its apparent size nearly equal TO
that of the full moon. According to
Mr.. Parker it was nearly overhead
probably little north of zenith-at
the time of its explosion. The re-
port was distinctly heard at War
saw, and excited much attention
from the fact of its occurring during
a heavy snowstorm. The light OF
the meteor "was so brilliant as ia
blind any person looking directly al
it, and Notwithstanding the storm
hghtened theentire vicinity as clear.
iy as the brightest day at noon >
To Mr.. Parker and his companions
the explosion and report we're very
nearly simultaneous. No aerolites
however, if any fell in the vicinity
have yet been found.

Walking.

Bertha Won Hillern, the female
pedestrian, in an article in the
Youths Companion, thus tells show
to walk"
Do not walk rapidly at the start.
Begin slowly, then gradually in
crease the pace until it is a little
faster than an ordinary gait, then
try to keep the same even step and
movement.
In walking, preserve as upright a
position as possible; from time to
time make a new effort to grow a
little taller, to straighten the back,
throw out the chest, hold the head
higher, TIL thatposition becomes ha-
bitual.
Never 90 from warm room into
cold air and start suddenly into a
rapid walk, and never walk faster
than can bedone with closed mouth.
The breathing should be done in
long, slow, respirations through the
nose, as regularly as possible. A
habit of long regular respirations
can be acquired, and it prevents the
lungs being subjected to too sudden
changes of temperature.
Try to acquire a habit of walking
from the hips-I had almost said
from the shoulder, which is really
the true way. 7
The foot should be lifted not high
er than is necessary to allow it to
swing easily forward, and the knees
should bend just as little as need be
to permit that swing.
Never walk rapidly and then stop
abruptly, but toward the end of a
walk, or when about to stop for any
time, slacken the speed gradually,
until it is quite slow.
The effort to follow any of these
rules is perhaps tiresome at first, but
it will repay the trouble. At first,
one should make the length of the
walk little more than enough to
feel really tired, but do not walk un.
til tired and then enter horse-car
or carriage to return home. Begin
with a short distance and return; if
that does not fatigue, make it longer
the next time, until you are tired;
then gradually increase that until
you reach a limit you would like
for the habitual walk.
BE very careful not to get heated
by walking and then allow yourself
10 get suddenly chilled. That is one
reason why you should not get into
car or carriage after walking.
To persons having heart disease
ordelicate lungs, injudicious walk.
ing might be hurtful, but with the
precautions 1 have suggested even
such will be benefited.

PIrTsBURG, April 20.-A storm
swept over ligonier valley to-day,
wrecking barns and dwellings. Re
ports from all over the county show
thejamage to property to have been
considerable. The damage to prop
erty to have been considerable. The
damage by yesterdays storm in Fay

ported, and the loss to property will
exceed $4,000. A tornado started at

Use Short Words.

The great art in the use of words
is use only those that will clearly
present our ideas to the minds of
other people. The best words for
this end are short words, because all
classes of persons know what they
mean and they are easily kept in
mind. The late Horatio Seymour
saws:
The English of our Bible is good.
Now and then some long words are
found. and they always hurt the
verses in which you find them
Take that which says, 20 We gen.
Grafton of vipers, who hath warned
YOU to flee fram the wrath to comeY'
There is one long word which
ought not to be in it; namely, "gener-
ation." In the old version the old
word "brood" is used. Read the
verse again with this term, and you
will feel its full force. ''Oye viper's
brood, who hath warned you to flee
from the wrath to Gomez"
Crime sometimes does not look
like crime when it is set before us
in the many folds ofa long word.
When a man steals and we call it
"defalcation," we are at a loss to
know if it is blunder or crime.
If he does not tell the truth, and
we are told that it is case of pre-
varication," it takes us some time
to know jnst what we should think
of it.
No man will ever cheat himself
into wrong-doing, nor will he be at
a loss to judge for others, if be thinks
and speaks of acts m clear, crisp
terms.
1t is a good rule, if one is at loss
to know if an act is right or wrong,
to write it down in short. straight
cut English.

By all means let the girls learn how
to cook. What right has q girl to
marry and go into a house Of her
own unless she knows how to super
intend every branch of housekeeping,
and she cannot properly superintend
unless she has some practical knowl-
edge herself. Most men marry with
out thinking whether the woman OF
his choice is capable of cooking him
a meal, and it is pity he is SO
shortsighted, as his health. his cneer-
fulness, and indeed his success in
life, depended in a very great degree
upon the kind of food he eats in
fact the whole ..ousehold is influence
ed by their diet. Feed them on
fried cakes, fried meats, hot bread
and other indigestabla viands, day
after day, and they will need medi-
cine TO make them well. A man
will take alcohol to counteract the
evil effects of such food, and the
wife and children must be physiced.
Let all the girls have share in
the housekeeping at home before
they marry; let each superintehd
some department by turns. 1t need
not occupy half the time to see that
the house has been properly swept,
busted and put in order, or to pre-
pare puddings and make dishes, that
many young ladies spend in reading
novels that enervate both mind and
body and unfit them for every day
life. Women do not as a general
rule get pale faces by doing house
work. Their sedentary habits, in
over-heated rooms, combined with
ill-chosen food, are to blame for bad
health. Our mothers used to pride
themselves on their housekeeping
and fine needle work. Why should
not we?-Baltimore Sun.

Two Cent Postage.

WASHINGTON. April 19.-The men,
bers of the house committee on post
Offices and post roads are almost
unanimously infavor ofa letter post
age of two cents. Now that a day
has been set for consideration of the
matter the committee will agree up
on aspecific measure for recommend
alton to the house. 1t appears from
an inquiry into the working of the
post office department for the current
quarter that it is very nearly self
supporting. Intact, the figures seem
to indicate a surplus, and for this
reason, as well as Others, it is believed
that there will be little opposition
to the proposed reduction of post
age.

Shocking Accident at Detroit.

DETROIT, April 21.-At Baugh's
steam forge, below this city, this
afternoon, Jos. Kurger, an employe.
was wrestling with companion near
the great steam shears used in cut
ting iron, and as the two stood face
ing each other struggling for the mas
terry, Kurger involuntarily raised
one leg to preserve his balance
and in SO doing thrust it between
the jaws of the powerful shears just
as the blade descended, instantly sew
ering his leg below the knee. The
unfortunate man was taken to the
hospital and his leg amputated.

Governor Hoyt's Opinion.

HARRISBURG, April 1S.-In con-

said that he had no doubt of the NOM
ination of General Beaver at the
next convention, and he was quite
certain that Beaver would get the
Luzerne County delegates. The
Governor rather pooh-poohed any
thing to the contrary.
