KICKED BY A HoRsE. Frank Craighil, little
son of Rev. Jas. B. Craighil, of Bel Air, was
kicked in the breast by his fathers horse, Mon
day afternoon. The little boy was driving the
horse towards the pump, for the purpose of
giving him water, and incautiously cut the ami
NAL with a switch, when the horse kicked. The
horses heel struck the child on the back of the
hand, and this broke the force of the blow to
some extent. DIR. Munnikhuysen was promptly
at hand and rendered the necessary surgical aid
No bones, it is believed, were broken.

A SWAN CAPTuRED.-0n Tuesday morning,
about 4 o'clock, Mr.. II. s. Huff, who lives near
Mill Green, was awakened by a noise in his
yard, and looking out of the window he saw
large fowl Of some kind walking towards his
front door. He went down stairs and after
chase captured the bird, which proved to be
large swan, with broken wing. The bird
fought savagely to prevent capture. Mr. Huff
intends to keep 1t as long as he can. The wing
was broken close to the body, apparently by
shot, and how the swan made its way to such
distance from the water Is unaccountable

\ The Pyramids Built Downward.

Mr.. Cope Whtchouse, who seems to
be treated rs crank by the Science
Association in meeting at Philadelphia,
got the stage of the academy as the
scientists were leaving the hall We'd
nesday, and proceeded to give an illus
trated lecture on 1.-THE Libyan Des-
erts." Some of the audience remain
ed and Others out of curiosity turned
back TO hear him.
Mr.. Whitehouse enunciated some sim
gular scientific theories, based upon
the most careful researches. One Of
these was that the Pyramids had been
built practically downward, not up
ward. He took Herodotus and other
ancient writers for his authorities, and
on the strength of personal examina-
ton, which he had made, expressed the
opinion that the chambers, at the base
of the Pyramids, had been used for
temples and were constructed beneath
the center of big hills, and that the
apex of these hills had been cut of,
and, through the holes thus made the
big boulders of rocks had been dropped
one upon another until they had risen
to new apex. The hills, he said,
were then smoothed off and the sides
of the Pyramids nodded, leaving them
rs they are seen to-day. The theory
presented by Mr.. Whitehouse is not
novel. 1t has been advanced before.
Whatever its merits, says the New
York Tribune-and if the judgment of
the standing committee be taken as fl
nal, it has none--it is the subject of
much comment to-day, that the COM
mittee should have shown such animos-
ity in the matter. There are probably
many more dangerous ''cranks" in the
ranks of the association than MIR.
Whitehouse. There are many scien-
fists whose opinion is entitled to weight
who think that Mr.. Whitehouse's SER
vices in other branches of science have
been eminent. He is, for instance,
recognized as an authority on the Ly-
ban deserts. But his notions regard

culed and little attention paid to

The Craze For Small Feet.

The competition between dudes in
the matter of small feet has become so
intense that they are visiting the con-
sulting room Of prominent surgeons
and asking to have their big toes am
putated, so that they may be able to
get into boots OF the smallest compass
possible. Professor William IL Pan
coast, Of the Jefferson medical college,
has, during the past month, been call
ed upon by three men and one woman
all Of them making the singular re-
quest. In every instance he refused
to perform the operation, and the
would-be patients went away disgust
ed. The idea of the surgeons knife
aiding them in their efforts to attain
the beautiful seems to have occurred to
hundreds Of people simultaneously,
like an epidemic.
81 can't account for this remarkable
desire for being mutilated for the sake
OF appearance, said Dr. Pancoast to
Press reporter, "but / can say it has,
like all fashionable crazes, sprung up
In very short time. 1t must be due
to the pointed shoe. You see, the cut
ting off the big toe would not material

the end of it narrower, so that the pa
tient would be able TO wear shoe as
pointed as dagger This seems to
be the modern conception of pedal
beauty. By-and-by, the pointed shoe

are having their big toes sliced off will

have been removed, and they have al

at is common thing for surgeons
to have patients who want meeting

continued 'In these cases we remove

never return. Ladies who are so I'M

The End OF Two Monster Ships.

For few days there will be some
life and activity in the Brooklyn Navy
Yard, for large number of workmen
have already been engaged to destroy
two hulks known rs the Colossus
and Java. For the past twenty years
these two uncompleted vessels have
never been moved from the ways on
which they were originally built, and
the very tlmbers on which they lie are
almost rotten from long exposure. The
Java and Colossus have always attract
ed great deal of attention from visit
ors, and from their battered appear
ance many people supposed that tine
two ships must have been through
some frightful naval battles
The Colossus was to be double tur-
reted monitor carrying four fifteen
inch guns. She was designed by Ben
jamin Delano, one of the most skllful
naval constructors of his day. Two
millions and a half were to be eXpend-
ed on her, but when the war was more
advanced orders were received from
Washington to stop work on the Colos-
sus. This was done, and many men
in consequence thrown out of employ
ment. The ships engines had just been
put in her, and she was all ready for
launching when the men ceased work,
and nothing has been done TO her from
that day to this.
what about the Javap"
1.-The Java was designed for a fast
steam cruiser for the purpose of pur-
suing such fast vessels as the Alabama
and others Of her class. She was to be
capable OF attaining a speed of seven
teen kuots an hour; in fact, she might
have equaled the speed of the Arizona.
The Java was mainly built for speed,
and all her woodwork was of the best
white oak. She would have made u
formidable mate to the Colossus, and
especially in those old war times the
two vessels could easily have with
stood the attack of any other two men
of war. 1t is pity to see them 60 with
out having even touched the salt wa
ter, but then the space that these two
old hulks occupy is very valuable and
will be used for something else, hope,
more useful than ornamental"
'When are you going to begin the
work Of destructionp"
1--WE have commenced to demolish
the Colossus already, and as soon as
we take on more help we will lay the
Java low. 1t will take about five months
altogether to break up the two ships"

DISCHARGED FROM THE ARMY IN THE LAST

Statement Of Mr. JULIUS 30 YDEN, Providence, r. T.

1864, as an incurable Consumptive. My discharge
reading thus: Advanced stage Of Consumption
of the Lungs Twas advised by the army surgeon
TO live outdoors as much as possible. He in.
formed my friends that was incurable, but that
with care might be made comfortable for time.
My cough was almost without cessation. ! raised
matter from my lungs in large quantities, and
had all the other well-known symptoms Of the
disease took many remedies without benefit.
In September went to see DR.. Schenck, and soon
after began to use his full course Of medicines. l
soon felt their beneficial effects, my cough grow.
ing less and less, and my strength coming back to
me very fast In the following April was entirely
well, and came to Providence and went to work.
From that time to this have been entirely well,
not spending one dollar for doctors or medicines
for myself l therefore know that Dr. Schenck's
medicines are good and reliable in Lung Disease
