Yesterday morning soldier from the Sol.
diers' Home at Dayton came to this city and
began to fill up with continuous goods -
He carried very fine silver watch with a
heavy cord guard, and attempted at several
places to cell it. The watch is valued at
about $40. The fellow, who gave his name
as John Reed, first asked $35 tor it, but soon
came down to $25, then to $40, and
finally he offered to sell it for
% 70 certain business man here. The latter
told him to come around in the afternoon and
he would purchase the watch Officers Nor
ton and Mas, were then notified, and the for =
mer went to the store, where he hid under the
counter. Reed at last appeared, and handed
the watch over to the purchaser, when Officer
Norton nabbed him. He was taken to the
station house and locked up on the charge OF
drunkenness. The officers think that the
watch was stolen, and Chief Boyd wrote to
the authorities at Dayton in regard to the
matter.

selves tor their solution of the penitentiary
question. They assert that the convict labor
docs not, under their management, come into
competition with laboring men. 1t is true
that, at great expense TO the

Cremation In Madras.

In Madras much of the hiJeous.
ness that is so revolving to a person OF
delicate nerves is hidden. There are
no fierce flames to be seen cracking
around and burning the corpse. no ter
ribly offensive Odors. but. on the con,
trary. at a high caste funeral, there is
to be e the greatest respect paid to
the dead, and also every possible ar
rangement to deprive the funeral of
its CHASTITY effect. The body is laid in
a sloping position, resting on a heavy
bed Of dry straw. This straw bed
rest upon a solid stone foundation i'm
bedded in cement. When the straw
has been laid and besprinkled three
times slightly with holy water the
body is laid upon it. The legs are
crooked up. tailor fashion, and the
body is clothed in pure white of a
peculiar linen, used solely for the
shrouding of the dead. The corpse is
then covered with white flowers, the
only part that is visible being the face.
The cheeks are painted bright red.
After the surviving son has passed
around the pyre three times, mutter-
ing a mantram, with the pots in hand
containing the holy Ere. he lights the
pyre. The straw is speedily ablaze,
and the slight layer of wood is soon
burning; and when the flames begin to
touch the body 1t is covered with q
thick coating of mud. so that the
corpse is actually burned within a COW
ering. 1t is thus left for three days,
when this coating of mud is broken
open and the collected ashes are
thrown into the adjacent river.
No sooner has the mourning cortege
left the spot where under the mudden
dome is burning the corpse than the
eldest son prepares himself for the
last rite of the ceremony. He dis
robes entirely. and, taking up his posi-
ton a the late pyre, gets shaven
from head to foot, the razor passing
over every inch Of his .body's surface.
Here, rs in Northern India, the funer-
al feast is observed rigidly, and the
number OF persons fed is generally
more than the purse Of the dead man,
can actually afford.-Son Franc;soo

A Leper's Hospital.

A Leper's hospital.
A Constantinople letter to the Paris
Journal des Debats says: There are
now few of these establishments (hos-
pitfalls for lepers,) left, and it is not
too much to say that in the n I have
just visited, human misery seems to
have attained its highest pitch. I
saw numbers of beings sightless. their
faces distorted out of all shape, their
hands and toes having dropped off.
their voice gone, breathing with des.
perate effort, their skin peeling off and
black as that of a mummy, insensible
to pain when pricked in certain parts
Of the body. Their feet and tanks ara
covered with horrible sores. through
which what is left to them of life Gibbs
away. Their attitude is one Of pro-
found apathy and exhaustion, and
could not help being reminded of tho
saying Of the leper of Aosta, Endless
seem the nights when the mind is
dwelling upon a desperate present and
hopeless future" And yet amid all
these horrible scenes there lived mar
ried couples and children, the latter of
whom, free from disease as yet, play
about like other children, regardless OF
the spectacle which they have before
them. One Of these wretched men,
not more than 80, but among the
most afflicted, has a very pretty wife
and a child who is fresh and rosy like
young Cupid. A young fellow of 25,
but who is so ~cadaverous that he
might be 100. a mere walking corpse,
has a wife Is years older than himself,
and herself ravaged by the same dis
ease. This woman was married before,
but her first husband put her away
when he noticed symptoms of leprosy.
He married again and had a child,
which at his death lie conided to the
care of his first wife, who reared it.
This child grew up, and a himself
since married and had children, all of
them living together in this hospital,
1t Is said that the disease is not conta-
gious as the Governor. who has been
there 40 years, has a wife and six
children, who enjoy the best of health.
The brother of one of the lepers. who
Is a soldier in a neighboring barrack,
comes to see him whenever he can get
leave. and he has not caught the disease.
DR.. Zambaco comes twice a week and
handles the lepers with perfect impu-
nifty. DR.. Zambaco, who is one of the
leading Greek physicians at CONSTANT
nople, is of opinion that it is not at all
contagious. and that, though OCCASION
ally inherited, it is more often acquir-
ed. the main cause being privation and
want Among the lepers at the Mis-.
kin Hanei is one who owes his malady
to having been struck by lightning,
while a second became a leper after a
sudden fright. But in the East the
conviction that leprosy is contagious
still has very firm root, and for this
reason at Mecca. while the lepers are
given food and clothing. they never
receive any money, the belief being
that 1t would spread the disease when
put into circulation again.

The following report of the sermon on
temperance, delivered by Rev. j. j. w.
Place, in the Baptist church in this city,
has been handed in for publication:
Tie temperance address, on Sunday
night in the Baptist church, by the Rev.
J. J. w. Place, brought out very clearly
that public saloons and the habit Of
treating to alcoholic drinks are acounta,
bic more than any thing else for the ex-
cess We use of alcohol as beverage. Sa-
looms should therefore be removed as 4
business and the custom of treating, in
stead Of being regarded as an act of
friendship, should be frowned down and
treated rs unmanly. The local option
clause to be voted upon in the adoption
Of The new constitution was suggested
a. being more in favor Of the saloon bus
jness than of temperance, rs we already
nave all the benefits OF local option il C
Legislative law. Should the constitution
be adopted with the local option clause
it would contine the opposition 10 alco-
hoiic beverages to counties and would
ever be n recurring fight. Give us con-
stitutional prohibition and the question
IS forever settled.
Constant agitation Of the prohibition
question will finally secure the end.
This last thought was illustrated by the
past temperance work, wherein was Civ
en- an interesting account Of the origin Of
q. ,-rr. II, 3
city Of Baltimore in the year 1872, Elder
jacob Knapp, a Baptist preacher. WAS
holdiag q series of revival meetings, and
number of dIunkards being converted.
the Elder was requested by some young
men to preach temperance sermon.
The saloon keepers being aroused, one
OF their number appointed a committee
from his customers to report his sermon.
The preacher said in the course OF his
sermon, that you will notice that the sa-
loon keeper is dressed in his broadcloth,
wears astarched shirt and shining boots.
and his wife dresses i'll her silks and
when she attends church her heavy silk
dress sweeping up the isle says, whisky,
whisky, whisky-but the drinker. You
will notice, is clothed in rags, and his
wife dresses in calico and has not a bon
net sufficient to appear in any public
gathering under the sun. When the
committee returned to the saloon the
keeper asked them what the preacher
said. "Well," said Mr. Mitchell, who
was one of the committee. "he tQld Us
more truth than poetry" And after
listening to the report, the saloon keeper
began to abuse Elder Knapp. Mr.,
Mitchell said: Il will not listen to your
abuse of the preacher, and if you do not
hush will never drink another dram in
your saloon, for there you are dressed
