A City of the Unknown Dead.

Since 1868 something over Al, 900 of
the city's poor friendless and unknown
dead have been buried IN the city Gem
etery, which adjOins that in which are
buried the remains of the soldiers. On
Mondays and Thursdays of each week
the burials take place. When person
dies in hospital, workhouse, penitentiary
or other public institution, unless the
body is claimed by friends or charitably
disposed persons and given Christian
burial, it is placed in cheap tifty-cent
pine coffin, removed to the morgle for
dav or so and thence transferred on one
OF the city's steamers TO IIart's island
and buried by a gang of workhousc en-
plOyes who are detailed to bury the dead.
When a person dies in a public institu.
ton his or her nearest friend or relative
is informed, and if the latter are able
the city will take measures to compel
them to bury the body. But the duty is
often shirked. 1t is nothing new to hear
of husband who is able refusing to bury
a wife, or of wife refusing to bury a
husband-of father or mother refusing
to give a son or daughters proper burial,
or of the latter doing as much for their
parents, But there are those who, even
if as poor as the mythical church mouse,
will even beg for the means to secure a
collin and a burial plot elsewhere for
some deceased loved one. Some of the
poorest of the poor have been known to
deny themselves the very ncccssaries of
life to 90 thinly clad and hungry, rather
than one of their kith and kin should be
placed in pauper grave. And yet there
are in the Potter's Field hundreds of the
dead whose kindred are known to be
well to do. There sleep in some OF the
pits side by side the poorest outcast and
the once pettcd child of fortune. -Neu

A correspondent writes the St. Louis
GL0Js- D5m0crdt that he was resident of
St. Louis county, in 1869, living south
west of the city on the Merrimac river
lie had daughter three years of age,
and it was her habit to play around under
the trees, and frequently she would take
of milk and bread and have little spread
on the grass The writer says this CON
tinued until her mother noticed that she
called for cup of milk about 10 o'clock
each day, going to the yard, and, after
drinking it, falling asleep near the
meadow fence. Little was thought of
this for several days until my wife, hap
pening to 90 the yard. discovered the
little one asleep, with large blacksnake
cOiled beside her. Scream ng with ter
ror, she ran to the child, and the snake
disappeared in the tall meadow grass.
The next day the child was not permit
ted to 90 to the yard as usual, and
grew very fretful, and thinking to soothe
her my wife gave her the milk and &C
companicd her to the spot, only to dis
cover the same monstrous reptile making
toward the babe, which, instead of evinc-
ing terror, broke from its mother and ran
toward the snake, with every indication
Of delight. Utterly frozen to the spot
with an agony of terror, my wife saw
the child place the cup upon the ground
near the snakes head, and after rearing
its head in the air and Kissing at my
wife, the reptile began to drink the milk
from the cup. Recovering control of
herself, my wife rushed forward, and,
grasping her daughter under her arm,
rushed into the house, where the little
one cried itself to sleep.
'On my return home the Circumstance
was related to me, and | determined to
destroy the reptile. The next day, being
the Sabbath. afforded me Il good oppor-
tunity, as | would be at home all day.
Preparing my rifle carefully, l went to
the yard shortly before 10 o'clock and
seated mpself by tree, first telling my
wife to give Ada the milk and allow
her to come as usual. Scarcely had her
little feet landed outside the door and
and her merry voice sounded on the air
until | saw the dread snake glide through
the fence, and, with head erect and eX-
pectant gaze, prepare to meet her A
moment later the sharp crack of my rifle
rang out, and the head disappeared from
the monster reptile, its body writhing on
the ground in agony. At the sight of it
my little one began to scream in agony,
and it was several days before she ceased
to haunt the spot in search of her lost
cjmpanion; but she did not dwindle
away and die, but is to-day as buXom a
lass as one could wish to see. The snake
measured ten feet eight inches, minus the
head.

Virgin, its height being fifty-two feet
and four inches. 1t was cast from the
metal of 2i6 cannon taken at Sebastopol,
and was deemed a triumph of the found
er's skill. The famous statue of st.
Charles Barromco is seventy-two feet in
height and is notable from the fact
that the style of its construction is
very similar to that of the Liberty,
being made of copper plates fastened
to framework, this joined to cen
trail column. The great liberty statue to
be set up in New York harbor is the
largest ever known. The statue is 1j1
feet 2 inches in height without the pcdcs-
tai, but including the pedestal, the base
and the foundation, the statue towers
305. II feet above the low water mark.
1t is of sheets of copper, 2! milimeters
thick, beaten into place and fitted to the
framework of the statue, which is sup
ported by n heavy iron column in the
centre, which bears most of the weight.
Some idea of the size of the statue may
be gained from the fact that the fore
finger is 2.s5 metres lover six feet long,
and yard and a half in circumference
at the second joint. The head is over
seventeen feet from top to chin; the eye
Is nearly threc-quarters OF yard wide,
while the nose is yard and quarter
long. Over forty persons can occupy
the head at one time, while in the gallery
that surrounds the torch twelve can
stand. The American people can thus
boast that among the other great things
of this country the United States has the
greatest statue of ancient or modern
times and among the men whose names
are certainly assured place on the pages
of history as long as it shall be written
is the sculptor Bartholdi. s.. Louis
Globe Democrat.

The mind readers and face readers may
find hints of use in the signs of the face
given by clever reader of physical ex-
preston. DR.. j. Simms pronounces the
round eye, like that Of the dove, an un-
failing sign of faithful attachment and
conjugal love. The much-admired al
mond shaped eye is given to rowing at
tachments and romantic loves. The full
ness and size Of the eye are significant of
the sentiment Of love. The bow shaped
lip is sign of intense affection and kind
ness of nature, apart from amatory
qualities. a roundness of the upper
part of the cheek is the sign of great
friendliness; long upper lip shows
self-esteem, as in pictures of Herbert
Spencer and Whittier the poet. Modesty
is shown by the deep groove in the
upper lip down from the nose; but, says
authority, modesty is large in all those
in whom the brain and nerve system
pred ominate, whether this sign be pres
ent or not. Wherefore, friends, let us
all cultivate modesty us significant Of
brains. Boston Gazette.
