A REMARKABLE CAsE.-Miss Mary
Griffith, daughter of the late John A.
Griffith, in his time one of the most
prominent merchants of Baltimore, was
married Thursday afternoon to Mr..
Vivian Neale at the Church of the
Immaculate Conception, Mosher street,
Rev. John A Maloney officiating. Mrs.
Neale is a sister of Mr. Edward A.
Griffith, No 404 Eutaw Place. Several
years ago, when quite young, and
while her family were residing in Gin
cinnati, she fell down stairs and receiv-
ed injuries which were considered
fatal. Several prominent physicians
called to see her and pronounced her
case hopeless. One day the young
girl grew much worse, fell into a coma
tOse state, and, as it was thought, died.
The body was prepared for burial, and
exposed for two days in a casket to the
view of friends. The day Ofthe funeral
arrived, and at the appointed time the
carriages and hearse drove up to the
door. Just as the coffin was being
closed it was noticed that the life-like
appearance of the supposed corpse
became more pronounced, and there
was slight signs of returning vitality.
A physician was called, and after an
hour or so Miss Griffith returned to
consciousness. The solemn gathering
was turned into one of joy. The young
girl recovered rapidly and grew VI
well and strong. Some time after hcl
father came to Baltimore and started
his business nere, and the family have
resided here ever since.-BdLtjmOre Sun

DOES A MARE EVER GIVE BIRTH TO
TWINS ?-Thus asks correspondent,
to which we answer yes, occasionally,
but not nearly as often as the COW
and it is fortunate that is so, for, except
in rare instances, she lacks sufficient
nourishment to bring up two fOals
properly. In order to accomplish this,
one must be taken away from the mare
and nursed on cows milk, which, al
though not so rich, is made to answer
an excellent purpose by sweetening it
with little sugar when found neces-
sary. There are instances where the
colt, taken from the dam and put on
cows milk, has thriven even better
than the one left with the mare The
late Lord Bentinck, of England, poss-
essed mare which gave birth to twins
in three successive seasons. One of
this pair he named oddly enough,
"Tweedle-dum," the other, Twccdle-
dee" But they did not make good
| the distich of Hudibras
Strange that such difference there should be
TwXt T@eede-dum and Tweedle-de,"
for these colts were so near alike, il

This world would be glorious world
If prudence ruled our fancies;
If common sense would hold in check
Our vein extravaganceS;
If mushroom sluggards would not look
With scOrn on honest labor,
IfhOnesty and justice might
In business be directors.
If men would live within their means
Unawed by certain lectures;
Ifinward worth were more desired
Than outward show and seeming;
Were there no gems but wOmen's eyes,
With pure contentment beaming;
If we would one another love,
Taught from lips Divine,
And help the needy with the wealth
Bestowed at Fashions shrine:
Then hushed would be the cries for bread,
And few our human woes,
With none so proud that they could buy
At Tower Hall their clothes.
Suspension and extension, then
Defaulting, forging, breaking,
Would be unknown throughout the land,
Or bills with extra-dating.
Men, in legitimate pursuits,
Avoiding speculation,
Would boast, at least an hOnored nama
Whater their wealth and station.
The man who furnished clothing cheap
Would our respect commando
A philanthropic monument
The Tower Hall would stand.

of odoriferous impressions. Catarrh

American wheat growers would
scarcely expect rivalry from the FARM
ers of HindOstan, but the latter now
present new factor in the food prob
lem of the world which may operate to
keep down the price of American
wheat. For some time the India rail
road companies have been blind to the
wisdom of reducing the cost of trans
pOrtation to the lowest paying rate to
attract business, but now such conces-
sions have been made as to open to
Hindostan the English market by way
of the Suez Canal. The new supply
may interfere with prices so far as they
are controlled by English demand, but
the outlook is by no means cheerless
for the farmer, in view of the enor-
nous increase at home, and the grow
ing demand for Indian corn caused by
the high prices in the meat markets.

How BEST TO PRESERVE EGGs.-
Farmers who have large numbers of
eggs to preserve, store keepers, who
take eggs in trade" and all others
who handle large quantities of eggs,
depend upon lime-water as a preserva-
tive. Casks of various kind are used
to hold the eggs, and some country
store-keepers have so many that they
require large brick cisterns placed in
the cellar. that are cemented, and hold
immense quantities.
While some immerse the eggs in
simple lin c-water, others hold that the
addition If a small quantity of salt in
CreAses It's preservative qualities.
Those who have had an extended ex-
perlence, advise shaking a bushel of
stone lime and adding water to make
50 to 60 gallons, and four quarts of salt.
This mixture is stirred a few times at
intervals and allowed to settle. The
perfectly clear liquid is dipped off and
poured in cask to the depth of 10
inches; then eggs to about foot in
depth are placed in the liquid, and
some of the pickle that is little milky
is added. More eggs are placed in the
cask, and some slightly milky pickle is
added for each foot in depth. When
the eggs are within about four inches
OF the top of the cask, they are covered
with a piece of cotton cloth, and upon
the cloth il spread two or three inches
OF the lime that settled after the slak-
ing. 1t is important that there be al
ways sufficient pickle to cover the lime
on the cloth. The object of placing
upon the cloth the lime that had set,
tied, is to keep the water constantly
saturated with it. Should some of the
dissolved lime be changed into carbon.

The Itanerancy.

This promises to be perennial source
of controversy in the Methodist Episcopal
church. The agitation for a change in the
present method of allotting pastors has
broken out afresh, and will probably con-
tinue until the meeting Of the General Con-
ference of that church in Philadelphia
next spring. New York appears to be the
pivotal point Of the new agitation, which
is led by number of eminent divines and
wealthy laymen. Two plans are proposed
for meeting the objections made to the
present system. One is, to permit min
lister to remain in one charge for five
years, if the congregation so desire it, in
stead of being limited to three years, as at
present. The other is to abolish the limit
rule altogether, and thus practically adopt
the system recognized by other denomina-
tions. Both sides of the controversy are
ably championed, and it will be a nut not
easily cracked by the General Conference
to the satisfaction Of all parties.

what the Supreme Court says.

A supreme court decision just rendered
puts damper on the ambition Of persons
who, in the fullness of alcoholic stimulants,
walk off of an embankment or other
heights and kill themselves, or mayhap
break a leg. Some time ago man named
Hill walked of culvert in Scranton and
broke his leg. He sued the city OF Scran-
ton, and though the local courts gave him
damages, the higher courts reversed the
judgment. The principle laid down by
the supreme court is that a road safe for a
man in possession of his senses is a safe
road, and no damage can be recovered by
any one who walks off culvert while
drunk
