Twins Astonish Judge and jury.

From the Augusta (Ne.) Journal. iN't S.Ha -
At a trial in Augusta the other dav,
before Judge Whitehouse, the case be-
ing a family quarrel between disgrunt-
led heirs, among the witnesses for the
defense were twins. They were not
ordinary twins. They had hair of the
brightest auburn, eyebrows the color OF
flax, pink and white c~omplexions, and
dresses exactly alike, even to the least
important bow. Their names were ex-
acHy alike, with the single exception
that an "a" appeared in one of their
names instead of en- 60" When the
first appeared on the stand the Jury,
Judge, and lawyers regarded her atten-
lively; she gave her testimony in a mod
est manner and stepped down. ,Anoth-
er name was called it was that of her
twin sister. As her counterfeit pre-
sentiment quietly took the stand
there was a hush in the court room.
Judge, jury, lawyers and spectators sat
transhxed, and gazed first at tho wit
hess in the box and then at the place
where her sister had taken her seat.
They could hardly believe their ewes it
seemed as if the last witness had re-
turned to the box without being recalled.
The lawyer conducting the cross exam
nation put the usual questions; the
name and residence were, to all appear
ances the same in the case of her double
Just on the stand, and the voice precise
ly the same in tone and infection. The
jury looked at each other. and seemed
ready to match coppers as to whether
they were awake or not. Then the
lawyer asked the witness if she had
been on the stand before during the
trial, and received q quiet answer in the
negative. This satisfied the court, al
though if her twin sister had not sat in
plain view at the other end of the court
room it Is by no means certain that she
would not have been indicted for per-

The Art of Prolonging Life.

"To die of old age" is the object of am
bition to a large number of persons,
who carefully nurse their health with
the view, not Of escaping death alto
gether, for they know this to be i'm
possible, but of eking life out to its ut
most limits. The art Of prolonging life
in this fashion appears to be less well
understood nov than formerly. The
Reglstrar-G General, in his report for
1882 lately published, observes that the
deaths ascribedto old age have for many
years been diminishing in their proper
ton to the population, aud in 1882 were
fewer in proportion than in any former
year. As old age is the natural termin-
alton Of life, and the ailment of which
all prefer eventually to die, this aggre-
gate falling off in the mortality from
this cause, ifreal, would not be an in
d%isputable advantage. But doubtless
much of the falling-of under this head
ing is merely due to gradual improve
ment i'll the specification of the causes
of which the old die. This, however,
does not account for all the apparent
decline in the mortality. For there
was in each of the three years 1880 1881,
and 1882 q sensible decline in the NOR
tality of persons of advanced age from
all causes; and in 1882 especially tho
de%ath-rate of persons fifty-fye years of
age and upward, whether males or
females, was lower than it had been for
many years, probably than it had ever
been before. The main factor that de-
termines the death rate Of the aged is
temperature, and especially the tenn
p%erature of the winter months; and in
1882 the mean temperature of each of
the six months of the first and fourth
quarters was above the average. In
fact, the best advice that can be given
to old, people anxious to linger on in.

Giving property to former Slaves

Giving property to former Slaves.
Louisville Courier-Journal
Y Many Of the owners Of slaves that
were liberated by the war have kept
their former slaves rs hired help. This
is especially the case in Fayette and
Bourbon counties, Ky. Now that the
slaye-owners are growing old, and that
many Of them are dying off, the cases
are numerous in which tbs former
slaves or their offspring are willed q
part or all of the masters property. In
some of these cases the colored heirs are
children Of the white testator, but in
most of them, however, they are not.
This making negroes the heirs of white
mans property has given rise to litiga-
ton in which the validity of such an in
heritance has been tested. A case in
point has just been decided in the Bour-
bon county courts. The slaves of John
Morris has continued to live with their
former owners after they had become
freedmen. Mrs. Morris died three years
ago, and left by will to a former slave a
house and lot which she held in Ter W
right. Some of Mrs. Morris relatives
declared their intention to contest this
will. MIR. Morris, the surviving hus-
band, when he learned this, became SO
much incensed that he changed his will
cut off from his surviving relatives al
most entirely, and willed the bulk of
his property to his former slaves. Very
soon after this he died. James Morris,
y brother, contested the will, and Judge
French and q jury, after full hearing,
have decided it valid.

was delivering a lecture. OF course
she saw him; but no sign Of ~recogn;t;on

Watering the Garden

In watering the garden q thorough
good soaking occasionally is said to be
much better than the light sprinkling
every evening, which is the popular
way. This last has the tendency to
make the roots seek the surface of the
ground for the moisture thus supplied.
The New York evening post has a
florist writer who recommends this
plan: When watering is contemplated
draw the tubs of water'in tho morning
and let them stand in the sun through
the day; at night draw the soil away
from the base OF each plant in order to
form a basin in which to pour the
water. Pour this full and let it filter
through the soil, again and again fill
ing until the earth is entirely soaked;
then draw the soil back to the roots,
which will prevent it baking in the sun

From the Nashville American.
A wealthy farmer in Rutherford coan-
ty not long since vas applied to by a
good-looking lad for work, the boy say
ing he preferred to drive a harvester or
a wagon or do other light work about
the farm. The applicant looked so deli
cate that the farmer refused the request,
but gave the lad the name OF a farmer
in an adjoining county, who wanted a
boy to milk COWS. The situation was
sou ght and the lad taken on trial. The
two farmers met a few days since, in
Nashville, and got to talking about the
lad. Said the employer of the boy
HE is the best mixer I ever saw, and
can get more milk from the COWS than
anyone | ever had before him. He at
tends strictly to business and suiA me
first rate, but I'm afraid no is going to
create a sensation yet" 4
Being pressed by his friend, the
farmer was compelled to admit that his
wife had discovered, through the merest
accident, that the supposed boy he had
employed to milk the COWS was q wom-
an. "When / found it out 1 told my
wife the girl would have to go, as it
would never do to have our neighbors
know we had q woman parading around
the farm in top boots. My wife told me
she didn't think anybody else would ever
find it out, and it was worth while tax
ing the chances On it, and the lad suited
us SO we'll. I liked George and took
my wife's advice, and / think she will
be able to stay with us and wear mems
clothes as long as she wants to.
"She lived up in Indiana and had not
heard about Middle Tennessee, where
you could throw your hat on the ripen-
ing wheat and it would bear it up, it
was 80 thick and strong; so she deter
mined to come down here and get work
on q farm, where she could get work in
the open air nearly all the year round.
1t was then that she determined to
carry out q long-cherished plan, that of
assuming the garb Of a man, which ad-
ded much to her independence in seek
ing a situation. And you ought to see
henry mixer. She's q dandy, I can
tell you. She weighs about l4O pounds,
is large for q woman, being about five
feet eight. Her hair is black, and she
parts it on the side and wears it very
short. She has large feet and hands,
and wears kid boots two sizes too long
for her. She has a round face and a
roguish twinkle in her large black
eyes, and her coarse shirt is always
kept buttoned close around her well
shaped neck.
When I tell you she wears a wide
brimmed, coarse straw hat on the back
of her head, and t%ight-ftting green
Jeans pants thrust loosely in the top of
her coarse boots, always has o kind word
and a Joke for everybody and is very
much liked by my wife, 1 leave you
nothing to add to the picture"

Chops ana Tomato sasce.

This Pickwickian dish is not often
daintily served in the avarage house
hold, and yet it is exceedingly easy to
prepare. For the sauce take some
fresh, ripe tomatoes, cut them into
quarters. and stew for an hour and a
half in a porcelain lined saucepan. Do
not put in any water. At the end o:
that time pass through a cullender and
strain out the skins and pips. Put
the liquid back into the saucepan e
the fire, add a large lump Of fresh but
ter-don,t be afraid of getting in too
much-and when it boils up addpepper
and salt to taste, a teacupfnl Of cream
with enough -four in it to make the
sauce of the proper consistency-like
rather thick custard. Broil your lamb
chops-which should have all the lower
part trimmed off, leaving the neat han
die of bone--and serve quickly on a hot
platter, with a little chopped parsley
laid owe each brown chop, and with
the Tic poured around them. A bit
of onion a be stewed with the tomato
for those who like that fayoring.-N.

Distemper In Horses.

Severalremedies for this very trouble
some disease have been handed us. One
says he has used red pepper and vinegar
with good results. He sleeps a com
non sized pepper in a pint of strong
cider vinegar, and applies it to the dis
eased part hot. Another writes that
his cure is simply q lump of gum cam
phor about the size of ahaZelnut, given
to the horse in bran-or anything in
which he will eat it-on the first indi-
cation of the disease. If one does not
effect a cure in two days, repeat the
dose. He says he will warrant a cure.
The camphor opens the pores, relieves
almost as oon as if by magic. A very
common remedy is to take of spirits OF
nitric ether one ounce, laudanum four
drains, nitrate Of potash three drains
and water onepint. Mix and give night
