Ope Of our citizens who visited New
Orleans last winter and brought back
with him live alligator. which he still
has in his possession, was surprised the
other evening oh finding on his walk in
front of his house what he supposed to
be another alligator. This was hardly
comprehensive, this not being particu-
larry noted as an alligator producing
country; but there it was, and as the
gentleman is not addicted to strong
drink he could trust his eyesight fully.
True, the alligator on the walk differed in
some respects with the alligator which
the gentleman had brought from the
sunny south-its tail was much shorter,
but the Mrs. of the house came upon
the scene and dispelled all doubts in
the gentleman's mind by pronouncing
it genuine alligator. The lonely wan
derer was carefully placed in a box and
taken in out of the cold The female
domestic, on being shown the new ar
rival, went into Mysteries, and finally
astonished the lady of the house and
her iege lord by announcing the
stranger to be nothing more nor less
than nasty lizard That family
has since concluded that one alligator
in the house was quite enough, and the
poor lizard has been set adrift and
allowed to shift for himself in the cold,
cold world.

About o'clock last Wednesday ev-
ening the accommodation train on the
Blue Earth branch of the Omaha road
ran into and killed span Of horses
about three miles south of Amboy. The
horses were attached to new buggy,
but whence they came from or where
the owner, remains mystery. Nobody
in the neighborhood knows anything
about the team, and as they were dis.
tance from any highway, it is presumed
they ran away and threw the driver
out.
We have received from George Stin.
son & Co., of Portland, Maine, the

cent, full length, steel engraving Of
Gen. Grant. It is after Anderson
celebrated photograph, which was
made while the general was still in full
vigor. and represents him in his sturdy,
manly strength, as the people wish to
remember him. 1t is, undoubtedly, the
best portrait ever made of the general.

In response to letter from teacher
inquiring whether pupil can be ex-
PEELED from school for refusing to read
from newspaper, State superintend-
ent Kiehle makes the following points:
In all but special districts the state SER
les of readers are the only reading mat
ter authorized; supplementary reading
matter, including newspapers, may be
authorized by boards of education;
boards cannot select books or papers
having sectarian or political bias; il
is umvise to select books or papers
not approved by the governing seDti-
ment of the community; it is best to
avoid expelling pupils for refusing to
read in a selected newspaper.

Mrs. Jacque, living in Dau's build
ing, at the corner of Broadway and
First North street, has hen that has a
history. About six weeks ago Mr..
Jacque purchased and slowed away in
his hay loft load of hay. About the
same time Mrs. Jacque missed one of
her best fruit.bearing hens. A few
days ago, the hay having been mostly
used up, Mr.. Jacque found the lost hen
in the hay-loft, where she had been i'm
prisoned under the load of hay for full
~ five weeks, without food or drink.
Under her was an egg, which had of
course become decayed, but the hen
was still alive although very weak and
greatly reduced in flesh. She celebrat-
ed her deliverance from her long fast
by eating until her crop stuck out as
big as football and she was unable
to carry her load. Everybody that saw
her was of opinion that her feast would
prove more fatal than her fast, but not
SO. She has fully recovered and is now
laying her daily egg with clock-work
regularity.

are subject to the searching eyes of the

A Pitiilll Scene.

A ritiful story comes TO US Of 4 scene
in Philadelphia police station, where
rough tangled-haired woman, who
had been arrested, had fought like fury
and stormcd at the officers in three
languages, was followed up few hours
later by a little tot Of girl, who look
oil from one officer to another, and ask
ed them if they had put her mother in
Jail. She was so little that the police
man had helped her mp the steps; but
here she was, in search Of her mother;
the degraded woman heard her voice
and called to her. So they swung open
the door aud let her in, and the little
thing ASKED her mother, who had
shrunk back ashamed, "Why mother,
are YOU in jail?' then the baby dropped
upon her knees on the stone floor, and
began to pray: Now ! lay NE down to
sleep, ! hope my mother will be let
ont Of Jail There were tears among
those rough Men at the sound Of that
innocent voice; and when the case was
brought into court the judge whispered
10 the woman to 90 homo and try to be
a better woman. II was drink that
made the trouble.
