A Peoria paper says Of the way Col.
Matson does business:
The case Of the mysterious floater
found in the river some time ago, has
almost dropped out Of sight. The case
was not given up by Detective Matson,
however, aud he Informs us that lie
has succeeded in securing the identifi-
cation of the woman beyond any doubt,
aud on his return from Pennsylvania
will continue his investigation Of the
case, and expects to soon be ready to
disclose some startling news in relation
10 that case. MatsOn is as tenacious
rs \ bulldog, and when lie tackles Il
case, lie sticks to it with the persistent
cy OF a sleuth hound. The picture of
the woman, lie states, was readily iden-
titled by the woman's parents, whose
Mame he would not give for cause. and
last on the right trial.

level of the ships bulwarks, the davits were swung round, and the boat was gen. tly lowered upon the deck. Then a mighty cheer burst out, hats and hand kerchiefs were waved, and cheer upon cheer rang over the water.
 Little Jack looked out of his plaid with a smile on his face, while Mickey handed his precious bundle into Captain Hoods arms; and in a few minutes more Jack was having warm bath, under the su- perintendence of his friend the steward ess, and a little later he was in the saloon with dry clothes on, as merry as if noth :. ing whatever had happened.
 When PIerrepoint stepped on the deck he tock his wife's hand in his for a mo- ment and then a rush was made at him, and both his hands were shaken till he thought his arms would be pulled of ; but the captain came on deck at once and bore him off to one of the bathrooms, where a warm bath awaited him. A steward brought him a supply of dry clothes, and in half an hour he was in the saloon, and had to undergo another course of hand-shaking.
 The captain said all he had to say in a very few words, and with hand-gra.p which said more than words.
 The stupid couple were now the he- roes of the ship and when the Shasta !" arrived in New York harbor, John Pierre point managed, by the captain s help, to escape being interviewed by the report CTS. The reporters, however, heard the story in all it's details from the passen- gers and officers, and the Pierrepoints found themselves famous.
 Before the passengers separated such a number of invitations were offered to the Pierrepoints that, had they been able, they might have spent year or two in America merely paying visits. Some of these invitations they were able to ac- cept.
 Captain Hood carried them of at once to his house on the Hudson, where little Jack was the first to bring his mother an account of the event Of the voyage
 The Plerrepoints returned to England for Christmas without any sea adventures :; but before they had been two days in America John Rerrepoint wrote to his father to tell of their safe arrival in Amer ica, and he addressed the letter, "The Earl of Hurst, Hurstpierpoins, Sussex, England. ."- Cham6e,s' Journal.

Devil of Modern Arithmetic
San Franciscan 1

Banish the devil of modern arithmetic from our public schools" said Hon. Henry C. Robinson, in a speech on public education, in Hartford, the other day: "it assaults the brain and imperls the life it develops pre- cocity and precocity is immature, and unna- ture IS monSter.n
 And the Hartford gentleman is right. There IS long sermon in the few words above quoted.
 This modern devil begins it's work on the childish intellect as soon as the child is able to walk to school In the infant class the puzzles begin they cease at the end of scnoots, or when the devil drives the child out of school. Parents cncour- age this attack of the modern devil on the brains of their growing children. It has become the general notion that if one can figure we'll one can make money and keep It. Making money is now tue chief end of man, and probably always has been, in spite of what our shorter cate chism " used to teach us. As long as we are in life and health. Mammon is the god that is worshiped. This being the case with grown folks, they insist that children shall be trained by the schools in such manner that the god can be at sotAS0 oa0 AoP PpAhSSo SSAuICN. tic is credited with being the means of gain hence the forcing from the first of the child along the dreary road toward money that will give ease and comfort in after years. It makes no difference it the child clearly shows that he or she has 10 talent for arithmetic, and no disposition to grub for money, the forcing in that direction must go on anyhow for how should the child's disposition be allowed to tell chat is best for the future man CT woman? And the arithmetic of our schools must be most difficult or it is not considered to be doing Its duty in the iuil way. The merit of the modern arithme- tic textbook consists io its containing long and mixed-up examples, of a kind that would never be met with in any act ual business transactions, not even by the Rothschilds when they aye bargaining with governments, and wars are going on. These difficult and obscure examples " are thought to furnish exercise for the mind, and to strengthen and train the in- tellect and perhaps they do in some in- stances-with intellects of tue kind that Sir Isaac Newton and Pierre Simon Lap lace carried. But such arithmetic worries into misery always, and often into imbe. cility, the very large maj ority of the minds forced to such studies. School directors, teachers, and makers of arithmetic books, are all, and all the time, exercising them selves in inventing arittmetical puzzles for childish brains.
 This modern devil, so coddled and nursed by our school system, in all our schools, trains to cheating and deception, causing good big step at the beginning in the direction of immortality. Every pupil must "do" arithmetic or stand under the disgrace of incapacity. The result is, that the very few who can mas ter the study pack along the many who are not capable in that line. The pupil consents to receive the assistance. and SO, stoops to deception rather than be held up as '' not good at figures"

 Mrs. Pierrepoint was still beside Cap- tain Hood, and felt that she knew what was passing in his mind. The boat was now much nearer they were both watch ing it intently, but the light was failing. At the same moment they both saw MT. Pierrepoint stand up and wave his right hand in peculiar way.
 That was signal, madam what does it mean ?" asked the captain.
 "Wait a minute till he repeats. Yes, see it plainly this time. He says, All well, ," replied Mrs. Pierrepoint.
 These words were heard by some of the ships officers and passengers who stood near, and they raised acheer which was taken up all over the deck, and passed across the water to the boat, which was getting near.
 "Th ank God!' said Captain Hood. "We will soon have them on board again." He then left the bridge in charge of the first officer, and went aft, accom- panied by Mrs. Pierrepoint. to the place where the gig would be brought on board. Here the quartermaster made a clear space on deck, and in the center of the space stood the captain, Mrs Pierrepoint and the stewardess. To her Mrs. Pierre point said: "Order a warm bath to be ready for the child ;" and steward was sent down to have this done.
 The boat was now alongside under the dsvits the oars were unshipped, the hooks of the lifting tackle were fixed in the rings for raising the boat, all the hands but two climbed up the tackle ropes, to tighten the boat, and then a number of willing hands hauled away upon the tackle.
