Human Sacrifices In Greece.

The tourist among the temples would
find that e, en- where human sacrifices
were disused, they had once been
customary, and ceremonies existed by
way OF Communication. This is precisely
what we find in Vedic religion. in which
the empty form of sacrificing man was
gone through, and the origin of the
world was traced to fragments of a god
sacrificed by gods. In Sparta was an
altar of Artemis Orthia and a wooden
image of great rudeness and antiquity,
so rude, indeed, that Pausanius. though
accustomed to Greek fetish stones,
tho ght it must lie of barbaric origin.
The story was that certain people of
different towns, when sacrificing at the
altar, were seized with frenzy and slew
each other. The oracle commanded that
the altar should be sprinkled with
human blood. Men were there
fore chosen by lot to be sacri-
feed, till Lycurgus committed the
offering, and sprinkled the altar with
the blood OF boys who were logged
before the goddess The prestess
holds the statue of the goddess during
the logging, and if any of the boys are
but lightly scourged the image becomes
too heavy for her to bear. These rites
are on a par with the initiatory cere-
monies OF Hottentots, Mandans and
Austral an natives They lasted till the
time of Pausanias, and perhaps we may
some day find the rude figure of the
goddess. which was held upright by a
shrub into which it was thrust. AT Pa.
tr,e was a temple of Artemis, called
"the Implacable," and to her it had
been customary to sacrifice yearly a
youth and maiden of transcendent
beauty. In Pausanias time the human
sacrifice was committed He himself
beheld the strange spectacle of living
beasts and birds being driven into the
fire to Atemis, and he had seen bears
refuse t. face the fire and rush back
among the ministrants. But there was no
record that any one had ever been hurt
by the wild beasts on these sacred occa-
sions. The bear was beast closely
connected with Artemis, and there is
even reason to suppose that the goddess
had herself been a she-bear in the morn
ing of time. There is a good deal of
mystic speculation about the idea OF
motherhood as symbolized in the She
bear in Bachofen's Der Baer IN den Re
| ligionen des AtterttumS. But, as in all
savage religions, beasts were the first
gods of which we find a trace, and as
they slowly develop in anthropomorphic
| beings, it seems simpler to regard the
| bears of Artemis as survivals of a period
of barbarous thought. Among the
| Thespians, Zeus at one time demanded
| that human sacrifices should be offered
to dragon" This legend, like the

Killed by the Accidental Discharge Of
Gun. !!
KANSAS CRY. Mo. .Janu,

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, January %.
One of the most horrible cases of death by
accidental shooting which ever occurred hap
pened at the house of Sands W. Hopkins,
about three miles south of this city, this after
noon, by the accidental discharge of a shot
gun, young Hopkins blowing the entire head
off his young and beautiful wife. The hus-
band and wife were alone in the sittng-room
when the terrible tragedy occurred, and his
story of the affair is as follows:
alt is ali so horrible" said the young man,
"that l hardly know how to begin. On my
return from town today went to the barn
and put up the horse, my wife joining me,
and together we re-entered the house. After
some little work my wife went into the sitting
room or library, and sat down by the stove in
a rocking-chair, with some work in her hands.
i got a shotgun, which had been In the house
for some time, and proceeded to load it and
clean the locks, as / had noticed some
rabbit tracks near the barn, and wanted to have
the gun ready for instant use. One barrel was
already lOaded-the left one and going into
the room where my wife was, ! loaded the re-
naming barrel and then sat down in chair
nearly in front of her and took up a small oil
can to oil the locks of the gun, which were
somewhat rusty. allowed the gun Barrel to
rest partially across my arm and leg during the
operation, when suddenly, as Ipulled back the
hammer of the barrel, it slipped out of my fin
gers and then the gun went off with noise
like thunder, and my wife fell right over
AGAINST the wall. But | can't tell any more
about it, as / was nearly wild. The charge OF
shot tore my poor wife's head partially Off, but

A Plucky and Heroic Engineer.

When the night express of the Louisville,
New Albany & Chicago Railway arrived here
yesterday morning the passengers were all in
a state of excitement. The train was crowded,
and it was learned by Herald reporter that
what came near being fearful disaster was
warded of by the bravery of one man, though
he was frightfully mangled and bruised in do
ing so. 1t seems that when near cambridge,
about twenty miles south of La Fayette, Ind,
the left parallel bar which connects the two
drive-wheels of the locomotive suddenly
snapped in the middle when the train was fly
ing along at about thirty miles an hour. The
bar of heavy steel flew up into the cab,
striking the fireman, Amos Thorpe, and throw
bar, on the right side, then broke, and also
smashed into the cab right where the engineer,
Mr.. L. Church, was seated trying to handle
the throttle valve He was thrown violently
back in the tender on the coal and was
mangled and bruised terribly. He bravely
crawled forward again and applied the air

stopped and the crew rushed forward, only TO
pick up Engineer Church insensible. He was
carried back to the train. The fireman was
discovered fully mile back dead by the side
of the track. The time of the accident was
three a. m. A new engine was procured by
telegraphing TO La Fayette, and the train was
brought into Chicago. The fireman leaves

A COMEDY OF Errors.

A ludicrous incident recently took
place in Liverpool. There are two
brothers who parted many years ago
when boys, one of them going to Amer
lea to seek his fortune and the other
remaining in Liverpool to make it.
They have both been eminently success
full in this respect, and not long ago the
brother in America determined to visit
the brother in England. The time of
the visit was settled by correspondence,
and the American set sail. The English
man is notorious wag, and arranged
that an acquaintance should meet the
American as his brother and conduct
him to the hotel. The Amer can, who
was also a great wag, on the trip de-
cided to play exactly the same joke on
his brother, asking an acquaintance
whom he had met on the ship to per-
senate him for few hours. The &C
quaintance entered into the spirit of
the joke, and when the vessel arrived
at Liverpool was found by the person
ator of the English brother and driven
to the hotel. The real American broth
er followed more leisurely, chuckling
over his joke. In the meanwhile the
English brother had also gone to the
hotel, bursting with merrlment over his
oke. 1t happened that the two real
brothers met in the lobby of the hotel,
and, though they had been parted so
many years, they knew each other. At
first, with blank amazement, they
greeted each other; and then, as they
explained their mutual Jokes, laughed
long and heartily. But the climax was
yet to be reached. An explanation in
regard to the gentlemen who had per-
sonated them, and who were now, as
they imagined, playing huge joke on
each other, showed that they also were
brothers who had been separated from
boyhood, but who did not know each
other when they met. The first pair OF
brothers hurried up to their parlor, and
after the situation had been explained
all around, the comedy of errors was
pleasantly ended by an old-fashioned
English dinner. London Truth.

The Great MOgul.

Many years ago, at the tine of a great
ceremony, Windsor Castle was honored
with the presence of three sovereigns.
After breakfast the three potcntates
walked and talked on the celebrated
"Slopes." and were, of course, in
"mufti." They were delighted with
the grounds, and presently entered into
conversation with gardener, who evil
IDENTIFY took them for party of gentle
mems gentlemen out for stroll. After
some little ailable talk he could not re-
sist the query: "Now, who may you
gents beP'' ''Well," said the spokes-
man, "this gentleman here happens to
be the King of Prussia; that one stand
ing by your side is the Emperor of Aus
tria; and as for myself, | am the EN-
peror of Russia. - This was carrying
the joke too far, thought the gardener.
"Pve seen lot of queer Turin gents
here lately, but this beats me-" so he
burst out in rather rude outlaw.
"Well, my friend" said the Emperor
Nicholas, "you seem amused; perhaps
you will tell us who you are" "Oh,
certainly" so taking up the skirt of his
coat with the action Of great eagle
spreading out his wings. and spinn ng
round on his heels, he said: ''If you
are all what you say you are-why, /

Majesties roared with laughter, and,

the luncheon table to the immense
amusement of the Queen and Prince
