A FalSohOOd Nailed.

An irresponsible penny a-liner recently set
going in New York Daily newspaper ma
licious statement that the prizes OF the Lou
isiana State Lottery Company are paid to
persons in it's employ, and not honestly
drawn and paid.
This lie has been copied here and there in
to Journals unfriendly to the Company, and
readers not aware OF the facts arc likely to
be affected by them.
An Ohio correspondent clips it from q To-
cal weekly and writes the Company on the
9th inst, to ask il there is any truth in it.
Let Generals Beauregard and Early who
have the entire charge Of all the Company's
Drawings, answer not only this correspond
ent but all whose faith in the Company has
been disturbed by this and similar calum-
NOUS paragraphs. Read tho exact language
OF Generals Beauregard and EARLY in tho
following statement, to which their names
are signed:
The charges, insinuations, and inuendoes
contained in said publication are false in
every respect, so far as they affect the fair
ness of the drawings OF the Louisiana Lot
terry, or the integrity OF the acts of the lot
terry Company. When the undersigned had
charge only OF the scmi-annual drawings
they counted the tubes containing the num-
be certain that all were put in the wheel.
Since they have had charge OF the monthly
drawings also, the wheel has been under their
exclusive control, and after each drawing
they have restored all the drawn numbers
to the wheel, locked it, and sealed it in such
u manner as to render it impossible for the
numbers to be reached or interfered with
without their knowledge. They have thus
been always certain that all the numbers
were in the wheel at each drawing, and they
alone are responsible for the integrity OF the
drawings.
The intimation that persons have been
paid to allow their names to be published
as the winners of prizes in this Lottery is
also false and without the slightest founda-
ton in fact. Millions of dollars have been
paid out by theg9hpany in prizes through
the banks and express agencies, as can be
ascertained from the bank officers in New Or
leans, and the Express Agents in New York,
Washington City, and in this city, as we'll as
from the winners OF the prizes whose names
have been given to the public.

a Philosophers Diet.

once knew man who had reached
as close to the perfection of human
philosophy as possible. One-half Of
the discomfort and large proportion
of the misery of the world, he said,
came from our inability to crafty tastes
that are acuired-that are not, by any
means, necessary to existence. This fell
low held theory that there is not III any
part of the world absolute necessity for
starvation. That everywhere nature
has provided something that will sustain
life. He argued that men very often
suffered from the absence Of what they
had been accustomed to eat, and they
did not stop to think that it was posi-
:" . to survito even on water for period
Of time. He had travelled, and he made
one rule in all his travels, to eat what
ever any other form of human life could
eat, and failing human life, what any
other form of animal life could eubsist
upon. He could with equanimity, if
there was nothing else for 1t, live like
Digger Indian. His relish for good
dinner was as great as anybody's, but
he never feared to get away into q desert,
or strange land, or an unlnhabited is
land, because he felt implicit confidence
that he could always find something to
cat, even if he had to suffer certain
amount of unpleasantness in doing it,

Mutilated Notes.

The following are the regulations
governing the redemption of mutilated
notes and fractional currency. United
States notes, each equalling or exceed
ing three-ffths of it's original proper
tions, are reaeemable at their full face
value in other United States notes by
the Treasurer and the several Assistant
Treasurers of the United States, and
are redeemable in coin in sums not less
than $50, by the Assistant Treasurer at
New York. Fractional notes, each
equalling or exceeding three-tifths of
its original proportions in one piece,
are redeemable at their full face value
in United States notes, in sums not less
than SO, by the Treasurer and the sew
eral Assistant Treasurers of the United
States. United States notes and frac-
tional notes, Of each of which less than
three-ffths remain, and notes torn or
cut into pieces each less than three
ffths, are redeemable only by
the Treasurer of the United States.
Fragments of United States notes,
gold certificates, silver certificates, and
fractional notes, constituting clearly one
half, but less than three fifths, when un-
accompanied by evidence that the miss
ing portions have been destroyed, are
redeemable at one-half the full face
value of whole notes or certificates.
Fragments less than half are redeemed
only when accompanied by an affidavit
executed in accordance with the require
ments "of the following paragraph
notes and certificates, of each of which
less than three-ffths remain, accom-
panied by an affidavit from the owner or
from such persons as have knowledge
of the facts, that the missing portions
have been totally destroyed, are, if the
proof furnished is salts factory, redeem
ed at their full face value. The affidavit
must state the cause and manner OF
mutilation, and must be sworn and SUBJ
scribed before an officer qualified to ad-
minister oaths, who must aflix his ofici-
al seal thereto, and the character of
the atlantis must be certified to be good
by such officer or some other having an
official seal. The Treasurer will exer-
else such discretion under this regula-
ton as may seem to him needful to
protect the United States from fraud.
Fragments not redeemable are rejected
and returned; counterfeit notes are
branded and returned.

Norway Restaurant Dinners.


Cor. Springfield Republican.
Another unique feature of Christiana
is it's steam-kitchen. Here two din
ners are provided daily at 33 and AZ
ore, about IL and Is cents, if they are
partaken of in the dinning-room of the
establishment. They cost still less if
you come with your own basket and
carry away the provisions. You pay
at q little window within the entrance,
stating which dinner you desire, and
receive g. small brass check There
are two large dining halls filled with
long marble tables, on each side Of
which are stationary wooden benches.
At one side are two large windows
with inner counters. Here you present
your check and receive the days dinner
which you must carry to replace and
table you have selected. Two Or three
walters are in attendance, but only to
remove the plates, &C. The food is
wholesome and hearty. We had ex-
cellent meat balls with potatoes and
gravy, large piece OF bread and an
immense rice pudding, with raspberry
sauce: Of course the place is largely
frequented by the lower classes, but
the poorest people carry away their
meals. In the upper dining hall every
one had attained considerable re-
spectability in the social scale; except
for the extremely fastidious it isreally
something to see. -. -.

Suicides of Cranks.

In citing the strange methods OF sui
cides says the Globe Democrat, it is
impossible to refrain from giving the
work Of cranks. Chas. II. Jessup, of
Boston, went into barber shop,
drank bottle of hair dye and died in
the chair he was to be shaved in.
Leonidas Robertson, of Madison,
Wis.,, put on his wife's clothing and
sun-bonnet and hung himself. A man
at Marietta, O., jumped into the riy-
er with q tailor's goose in each hand
and q life preserver about his feet. A
wealthy citizen at Topeka, Kan, had
a hot-air balloon constructed, went
skyward in 1t and then set fire to it
with bottle of turpentinc. Another
genius at Pensacola, Fla, sat down
in his room, placed the muzzle of g.
small cannon to his breast and touch
cd it off with red-hot poker. A
school teacher III Kansas drank some
poisoned whiskey before his class
with flourish, saying, "Boys, who
wants new teacher,' and died
with his head on his desk. A pair
of lovers in Mississippi put ar
senic in an oyster stew and ate the
seew. A theological student in Cincin-
natl placed his head in fireplace and
allowed himselft to be roasted. Baron
Olnyi's suicide at Pesth, Hungary, was
the occasian ofmuch comment. 1t ap-
pears from Investigations made after
his death that he had compartment
in house distant from the one in
which he lived which was supplied
with cigars of all kinds and various
brands of chewing and smoking tobac-
CO. 1t was his habit to spend nearly
all his time in his room, and from the
labels Of boxes nnd other indications
in the room, it was seen that he
smoked an immense quantity of to-
bacco and strong foreign cigars. He
had actually smoked himselfto death.
In New York City q man jumped into
the East River with all umbrella ele-
waited to protect himself from a falling
shower. A Mr. Julius Jones, of Con-
necticut, shot himself over the grave of
his mistress after first erecting an UNI
brella to keep the sun off his face.
A lady making q tri to Europe pro-
cured $500 in gold from her husband,
sewed it in the lining other dress,
and jumped overheard.

Development Of the Trotter.

il. When Flora Temple trotted, 9. mile
in 2:1S 3.4, remarks the New York
Herald, the achievement astonished
the world. This was in 1859. The
mare was looked upon as a wonder.
Few then believed that q mile would
ever be trotted in less than 2:15. 1t
took eight years to lower the record
of 1859, and down to 1874 the best
time made was pit. In that year the
record was reduced below 2:15 by
Goldsmith Maid, who scored a mile
in 2:l4.
It was then generally thought that
the limit of q trotter's speed would
prove to be 2:1O. But Maud S. had
not yet made her appearance, nor had
Jay-Eye-See. The former brought the
record down to within a quarter of a
second of 2:1O in 1881, and three
years later the latter reduced it to
2:1O. The prophets of the turf made
bold to predict a mile in 200, and
even 2:O8. Maud S. has rapidly low
cred the former figure: and now Presi-
dent Edwards of the Cleveland asso-
citation, expresses his conviction that
the wonderful mare can trot in 2:O7
under favorable circumstances, and
Mr.. Bonner declares that it will not
surprise him to see the prediction veri-
fed.

ADailv DefalcatiOn.

Tbs aaa. John Kelly, the head and
front of Tammany Hall, a man Of
strict integrity, an indefatigable work
er, early at his Office, late to leave, so
burdened with business that regular
meals were seldom known by him, with
mind in constant tension and energies
steadily trained, finally broke down!
The wonder is that he did not SOON
er give way. An honest man in all
things else, he acted unfairly with his
physicalresources. Hewas ever draw
ing upon this bank without ever de-
posting collateral. The account
ovcrdrawn, the bank suspends and
both arc now in the hands of medical
receivers.
It is not work that kills men. It is
irres1larity of habits and mental wor-
ry. No man in good health frets at
his york. Bye and bye when the
banlAof vigor suspends, these men will
wonder how it all happened, and they
will keep wondering until their dying
day Unless, perchance, some candid
physiS ian or interested friend will
pointt0ut to. them how by irregulari-
ty, bysexcessive mental effort, by con-
stant worry and fret, by plunging in
deeper. than they had a right to 60,
they 4tve produced that loss of ner-
vous energy which almost invariably
expresses itselfin a deranged condition
Of the:kidneys and liver, forit is q we'll
know4 fact that the poison which the
kidneys and liver should remove from
the blood, if left therein, soon knocks
the life out of the strongest and most
vigor6us man or woman. Daily build
ing up0f these vital organs by so Won
derfuland highly reputed q specific as
Warmers safe cure is the only guaran-
tees that our business men scan have
That tEir strength will be equal to the
lasa dssily put upon them.
Mr.. Kelly has nervous dyspepsia we
learn, indicating, as we have said, a
breakdown of nerve force. His case
should be warning to others who, pur-
suing a like course, will certainly reach
q like result.-The Sunday Herald.

didn't do it. I know who did it, but
I've been sick, awful sick, but we

now, but knew all about it weeks ago.
knew all about it the night it was done.
That is the man who did it"-pointing
to the junior partner of the firm, who
laughed scornfully, but whose face later
on as her story progressed became livid
with terror.
An angel from heaven could not have
looked more glorious to me at that mo-
ment than that pale, hollow-eyed red
haired child.
Then she told it all in her quaint, IL
iterate way--how she was passing the
store the night she had been spurned
from our door, and by the light of the
lamp she saw her father approaching in
drunken frenzy. Afraid of q blow if
he should recognize her, she slipped
into the dark alley and crouched down
in the shade of a large packing-box un
til he should have passed by. She had
been there but a minute when two men
camc swiftly up the alley and stopped
so near her she could have touched
them. They were the junior partner
and his accomplish, one of the clerks.
"This is what he said, she went on,
taking a slip of dirty paper from her
pocket. He whispered, but I heard
him, and writ it all down. It's al
most like what the prince said in the
Primrose Princess of the
"Never mind about the princess,
child, but let US hear what this man said !,
said our attorney. So she repeated {:
Remember the quarrel tomorrow,
and don't overdo your part. I'll dis
miss you; then you take the first train
Tor Dakota and buy up those lands I
told you of, and as soon as can find
an excuse I'll sell out aud join you. I've
hA>s~ the telegram right. "
The junior partner was arrested, the
clerk was traced out west and confessed
the crime and justice was meted out to
them. My Louis was free man. He
was offered partnership in the store,
and not many years after became sole
proprietor.
My poor baby came few weeks
after the trial, but God took her back
Immediately to Heaven. Our hearts
were full of sorrow, but we felt that it
would be wrong to mourn long, SO we
tried to bear it bravely.
And Donna? You saw that tall, fair
girl who passed through the room just
before began to relate this story-the
girl with the glorious hair-hair which
looks as if it had caught and kept
prisoner the sunshine-an great dark
blue eyes-eyes like violets that have
grown in the shade-that was Donna.
She has been our daughter ever since
the trial, and no daughter in the whole
city is more beloved.

Persian Baths.

Teheren Letter from Minister Benjamin.
There are two remarkable restric-
tions in every Persian city. No Chris
tian is ever permitted to enter one of
the public baths. These baths are on
the plan of what are called Turkish
baths in America. The women battle
in the morning and the men in the
afternoon. After the bath the bathers
lounge round in an outer room and
gossip and smoke. For the women,
especially, the weekly visit to the bath
is like resorting to woman's club.
They take their sewing and embroidery,
and after the bath sit for hours chatting,
sewing and smoking the water-pip
When the woman returns home from
the bath she is full of the gossip
Of the neighborhood and has plenty
to talk for about week to come. In
Turkey all sects can visit the bath, but
the Persian allow no one to battle with
them but the faithful followers Of the
Prophet. ~. =

THE OLD STORY.
allowed by the lilac tree,

Swallowed by the lilac tree,
Near tho garden fence,
Stands my neighbor, Rosie Lee,
Charm of innocence!
Sweeter than the fragrant flower,
With the dew-drop laden,
Fairer than the morning hour.
Is the winsome maiden!
From the naples top-most limb,
With the flush Of day,
Come the redbreast's matin hymn,
Sweetest roundelay!
Yet the song the maiden sings,
Tuncful, soft and lowly,
To one heart rapture brings,
Zen mora pure and holy.
Happier thought than lips can speak
Beams in her blue eye;
Joy lights up her glowing check
Hor bcthrothod is nigh!
Needless of the lilac's bloom,
Or the mornings glory,
All that in her heart finds room
Is Loves sweet, old story!
