These elects will be observe,
wherever the dynamite wave reaches
horror and attempts ut repression al
first, thea the better CouuScIs of diycrc
tion and humanity, and 1T last zen
une recognition Of the hrothcrhoud OF
the dCspi>cd classes aud Il ,incrrc pur.
pose TO relieve their estate and remove
from them all unjust Determinations.
We say unjust determinations, for il
is incredible that all this discomfort,
this unanimity Of outcry, should ap-
pear through all Europe without some
serious justification in bad laws. II is
not human nature to vince without
pam; and in all ages the common pco-
pie have been more ready to accept
and endure impositions than to rebel
without cause against fair and equal
institutions. 1t is Il weakness in all
governments to favor the rich at thccx-
pcnsc of the poor. MOnarchics are
avowcdIy governments of privileges for
the few; but even republics cannot
quite comtcracl the tendency of power
10 grayitatc TO the powerful. Here is
New York which has been u hundred
years pcrfccling its system Of free in
stitulionS, and yet how many Of its
laws discriminate against the poor in
plain defiance OF principle? For cX-
ample, few days ago some poor boys
in Avenue ~ were arrested and fined
for tosSinga ball ON Sunday; if they had
possessed horses and carriages and the
services of driver and foOtmen they
might have rolled through the streets
in grand style and got their due airing
and recreation without interference;
but having simply muscle and ball
they come under discrimination. A
wealthy publisher like the proprietor
of the Herald may print and issue his
paper on Sunday, thereby adding
thousands of dollars to his already
ovcrllowing treasury; but the poor man
who wishes TO exc out his mcagre sub
sistGncc by catching few fishes off the
docks, is interdictcd by the stern
majesty of the Sunday law. A score
of similar cases might be cited. So
accustomed indeed are the public
to such determinations that they
scarcely are aware of them; and the
greater number probably entertain un-
consciously the notion that poor man
fishing, lcoping, jumping, tossing bail
or quoits, is more wicked violation
of Sunday than party in silk, satin
and broadcloth bowling along the
boulevard in n splendid turnout. Hap
PLY the case is not one to call for the
intorpositlon of dynamite, but the dis
ordinations are irritating to the class
es Disseminated against and tend to
them from the state which |
they should look up TO as u sure pro-
tector and love, rs u second father.
Without such regard from the hum
blest, from the great mass of the poo-
pie, no government can stand in entire |
security. And it will be well for our
legislators 10 heed the warning that
comes to us from Europe, and to give
due diligence to hunting out from our
statute books all traces of vicious, par
tial and superlluors laws, and cspeci-
ally such as tend to keep up the old
between the poor and the
rich.

Popular Science Monthly for June.
Sergeant John =. Finley, signal ser
vice officer at Kansas City, Mo-, ha
published in pamphlet on tornadoc
some useful directions concerning tn,
course TO be taken to escape the dan
ger Of those terrible forces. The in

he will have 10 cross the path Of the

got ont Of its way. No material, no
method OF construction. can be cUmpe-
tent 70 resist the raging destruction.
Nothing rising above the ground can
escape il.
The most practicable measure of pre-
caution is to construct dug OUT at
some suitable point, within easy dis
tancc from the house, TO serve rs Il
place Of refuge or shelter. The retreat
should be entirely underground, with n
roof ut least three feet thick, not rising
above the surface Of the earth, and en-
tered from the northern Orcastcm side.
y "ccllar cave may be constructed
from the cellar, if the house has one,
TO serve rs Il substitute for the duo

west wall Of the cellar, toward the
west and should be made as complete
and secure rs the dug out -
If, however the storm cannot be cs-
capped, If no refuge is at hand, or there
is n" time to get TO it, the safest thing
to do is to place ones self against the

a RAILWAY is to be constructed to
tho summit of Mount Kcarsargc, North
Conway, N. II. Mount Kearsarge is
very steep and hard to climb, on horse
back or on foot, as many II summer
tourist has ascertained. 1t is too steep
at one part of ascent for railroading-
even for cog-wheel railroading-and
the projected road is to be like an Or
dinary traction railroad, except in two
particulars. 1t will be but two feet
wide, and will wind around and around
the mountain, making a total journey
of nearly fifteen miles and gradual

Disease in Milk.

Recently some fifteen cases of typhoiC
fever were found in Il part of Washing
ton Heights where the sewerage and
the water pipes were SO well construct
ed that it was deemed impossible thai
the fever could have originated in any
defects in sewerage; neither could
there be found to be any defect in the
watcr.cIosets of the ncighborhUOd
Typhoid fever is usually found in places
where sewerage is bad or where filth is
allowed to collect. After good deal
of investigation it was found that all
the families affected by the fever were
taking their milk from the same milk
man. A physician interested in the
investigation sought out the source of
the milk. 1t was found that there was
Il diseased COW there. An order was
issued that no more milk should be
served from that animal, and since
that order there have been no new
cases of typhoid fever. Whether the
prevalence of tho fever in the ncighbor-
hood referred to was really due to this
supposed cause or not, it certainly
bchooves people living in large cities to
look well TO the sources of their sup
plies of milk. Then those living in the
country, receiving their milk fresh
from their own cows, should bear in
mind the dangcrresulting from placing
their vessels of milk in impure refrigcr-
atorS or in places where the milk may
gather up deleterious bacteria. Set a
vessel of milk in refrigerator where
meat is placed and ii will be found that
the proximity of the milk will tend TO
the preservation of the meat in conso-
quence of its having greater affinity for
bacteria, Milk should be set in pantries
or closets where nothing else is kept
and where the air is absolutely pure.

Mrs. Jones a Jewel.

A singular instance of the recovery
of lost property has just come to light.
Shortly after the appeal was made
for supplies for the flood sufferers, a
family lying on Sixth, out beyond
OAK street, sent the Relief Committee
quantity of clothing. Among the
articles was the cloak of a little girl,
the youngest daughter of the family,
and after it was sent away she re-
membered that a fine silk handkcr-
chief was in one Of the pockets. 1t
was too late for it to be recovered,
and somewhat to the young owners
regret no effort was made. About
this time also a valuable diamond
ring was missed by one of the young
ladies of the family, and though
search was made for it high and low
no trace was ever found of the missing
jewel. The young lady was incon-
solablc; but the gem was restored in
novel manner. Soon after the cloak
had been sent away an advertisement
appeared in one of the local papers
stating the little girls name and say
ing that if she would call on Mrs.
Jones, on Preston street. she would
hear Of something to her advantage.
Thinking it was something about the
lost handkerchief, the child called at
the address given in the advertise
ment, and much to her surprise the
diamond ring was restored. 1t seems
she had slipped it in to her pocket,
and becoming entanglcd in the folds
of the handkerchief it had lain there
undiscovered until 1t had come into
the possession of Mrs. Jones. The
family restoring it had lost their all
by the flood, circumstance which
makes the prompt restoration Of the
valuable more commendablc. Such
instances of genuine honesty are un-

A man with red haid entered a
railroad car at the Union depot in St.
Joseph, NO., the other day and took
his seat. A moment later another
man with fiery top-not and vermil-

beside him. They looked at each 9TH

grafton in case Of accident by riding
