The Terrible Well at Cawnpore.

Havelock was already on the march,
his nearer approach being made the sig
nal for an episode which is the darkest
act in the hurried tragedy. On the eve
of going out to give battle to the En-
glish general, Mana Sahib issued orders
for the massacre of the women. They
were invited to leave the house under
pretence of being conducted to place
of safety. But they had had enough of
the Hindoo's clemency. They refused
to move, and were shot by volleys fired
through the windows, sepoys entering
sword in hand and completing the work.
This done, they were dragged out dead
and dying, women and children, and cast
into well that stood opposite the house.
There they were found when Havelock' S
men, having utterly routed Mana Sahib,
entered the town, flushed with the gen.
eneral hope of rescue.
Now only a marble cross set in grass
plot-dark in the shadow of solemn
yews- marks the sight of the butchery
while the well itself is prominent OBJ
iect in rich and well-ordered garden.
When Havelock reached Cawnpore and
found this terrible truth it was too late
to furnish Christian burial to Mana Sa-
hib's victims. The well was bricked
over, and in due time there has arisen
upon the site beautiful marble figure
an angel with SAD face, yet not sorrow
ing as those that have no hope, but
carrying in either hand the palm OF
victory. Over the gateway of the in
closure which surrounds this solemn
burial place is written: "These are they
who came out of the great tribulation. y
Round the base of the statue runs the
inscription: Sacred to the perpetual
memory of great company of Christian
people, chiefly women and children, who
near this spot were cruelty massacred by
the followers of the rebel Mana Dhoom'
dopunt of Bithwoor, and cast the dying
with the dead into the well below on the
18th of July, 1857"

The Pike County Trout.

Ed. Mott, the Pike county historian,
tells of monster brook trout that has
tantalized the sportsmen of that section
for ten years. It has been seen time
and time again. ''Crack fy-casters, "
saws Mott, "have come from New York
and Philadelphia every season to try
their skill on him. Sometimes as many
as half dozen have gathered at the
pool at one time. They fshed singly.
in pairs, by threes, and by skies. They
fished at daylight, at nightfall, by moon
light. Sunny days, rainy days, chilly
days, were tried. They fished with the
wind in the north, when no angler ven
lures forth. They fshed with the wind
in the west, when the trout will bite the
best. The fshed with the wind in the
east, when the trout will bite the least.
They fished with the wind in the south,
which blows the bait in the tish's mouth.
But the mammoth denizen of the pool
trimmed his sail to no wind, and re-
NAMED safely in port. One time team
ster, who had taken day off to go trout
fishing. came running hatless to the
Falls. He was as pale as sheet. He
carried a piece of his chestnut pole in
each hand. He had half of his horse
hair line left.
"1 hooked the big trout +! he yelled.
Il was baited with picker'l's belly fin.
I played him till he broke my pole an
my line, an here they be !!
"People rather believed the teamster,
and he was quite the lion of the back
woods. He was promoted to be sawyer
But few days later Doc Jaggers trapped
mink on the creek that had hook in
its jaw and four feet of horsehair line
hanging to it. Then that teamster lost
caste. He was discharged from the mill.
His old place as mule driver was re-
fused him. He went away, and is be-
ieved by his former comrades to be a
homeless wanderer on the face of the
earth"

A Mysterious Fire.

What poets and soientiic optimists
are fond of telling us about the beneh-
cence of nature is only partly true. In
another aspect, nature seems to wage
perpetual war with man, and to be for
ever tirelesslv and stealthily seeking out
new sources of offence or harm in this
irrepressible conflict. A singular in
stance of this unrelenting hostility is
given by correspondent of the Ameri-
can architect, who points out an un-
suspected and remarkable source of
mysterious fires. In room with a
southern exposure smoke was seen to be
rising from a table covered With a woolen
cloth on which stood an ink-well sup
ported on four glass spheres. Upon in
vestigation it was found that these
spheres, acting as burning glasses, had
focused the rays of the sun so strongly
as to scorch the cloth badly in several
places. Fish globes, glass vases and
paper weights have been known to act
in like manner, and correspondent of a
French newspaper the other day re-
ported case where fire was started by
the focalization of the suns rays in a
globe of gold fish.

The PASTORS Story.

A Boston pastor, who enlivens his Fri
day evening talks with anecdotes, is SO
fond of joke that he would rather tell
one at his own expense. than not tell one
at all. This is his latest:
81 was writing by my study window,
and little Irish child was busying him
self by throwing beans at the window.
Losing all impatience. 1 rushed out OF
the house, determined to frighten the
boy. 1t happened that his mother was
coming after him at the same moment,
and we met by his side. stormed at
the child, and then, as the mother
seemed excessively stupid, I gave her a
piece of my mind. Finally, as grand
and overwhelming conclusion to my
scolding, said: "A little discipline now
with your children will save you much
pain, if not disgrace, in the future.
Think of that, madam; that is, If you
ever DO think think, is it? she re-
piled; Il think if you'd go back to your
bedroom and wipe the ink aft av yer nose
you'd be prettier, even if you didn't
make so much av sensation. lt was
not a soft answer, but it had the enect o.
turning away wrath. "

A TERROR TO FOREIGN INVADERS.
Destructiveness of the New Dynamite Gun
Described by an Artillery Expert.

The Secretary of War has. detailed
Lieutenant E. l.. Zalinsky, of the Fifth
artillery, to superintend the experiments
that are daily being made at Fort Hamil-
ton with the new dynamite gun. Lient.
Zalinsky said to a reporter: 81 came
here thinking that it was merely another
crank invention, but experience has
taught me that it is destined to revolu-
tionize modern warfare. 1t will really
do all that is claimed for it. It will
throw a dynamite cartridge Of from 100
to 125 pounds accurately and without
exploding it from mile to a mile and
half with sufficient force to penetrate
an iron armor four inches thick, and,
moreover, all the remaining work that
is stored in the projectile at the time it
strikes the enemy's vessel is equivalent
to SO much tamping, thus insuring a
blow of great force against the hull of
the vessel.
SIN my opinion the force is sufficient to
blow up the largest and heaviest vessel
that is now afoat. 1t has been proved
that hundred pounds of dynamite ex-
ploded three feet under the water will
destroy first class man. of-war lying
seventeen feet off, 1t has also been
proved repeatedly that dynamite has a
downward tendency when it explodes-
that is, unlike gunpowder, it skaters all
beneath it as well as everything above it,
and ! therefore claim that when a hun
dred pounds of dynamite are thrown, say
on the Thunderer, the dynamite will
either blow the vessel to pieces or so
badly shatter it that it will keep out of
our way for some time to come.
"Atorpede may be stopped in its course
and rendered useless by the enemy's
booms or nettings, whereas nothing can
prevent this proiectile from flying
through the air. Moreover, torpedo
is useless after being once used, whereas
this gun can be reloaded and retired in
one minute. Then, again, think of the
great difference in cost between the two.
A torpedo costs $3.50, and, as I have
said, can be used only once, while pro-
jectile cast from this gun, which be-
lieve will be found more deadly in its ef-
fects, will. certainly not cost over $40.
And lastly, great merit 1 find in it is
its comparative lightness and consequent
easiness of locomotion. An eight inch
powder rifle weighs, for instance, ten tons,
while this gun weighs scarcely two and
half. Altogether, think it one of the
greatest of modern Inventions
