The annU al troubles with the Gath
olics and public schools have been re-
renewed with vig0r this fall, and the
department OF education is in receipt
OF numerous letters calling attention
to the fact that the Catholics, es-
pecially on the Mexican border, are
turning the public schools into secta-
ran Unes. Where they have the
power, they are endeavoring 70 divert
the public funds to their private
schools, and in other PLACES have in
latter question Support 1tendeDt Baker
has made following on:"Saddi9r's
school readers are s8ctarian in chsrEc-
ter, and no school er,isting in thoif
use can receive the benefit of the pub
lio school funds. 'rhe, use of said
books in public school makes the
school a sectsrian one and contravenes
the law"
To put an end to these constantly
recurring troubles 1t has been sug-
gested more than once that a law be
enacted prohibiting Catholic priests
and ministers from teaching and from
the management or control Of q public
school, and 10 Is more than likely, II
these irritating discussions are not
stopped, the Legislature will enact
such law.

order recently issued to the effect that no
German-American shall be permitted
to remain inside the German lines for
more than three weeks, that any such
person desiring to visit Germany shall
procure permission to do so ana shall be
compelled to leave at the expiration or
three weeks time.
Il heard il freely admitted in Cologne
that American ham was superior 10 the
native product Of that country, and the
English Parliament at the time Bis
marcks order was issued considered the
question of excluding our American pork
on the same grounds, but after full and
careful investigation they came to the
conclusion that it was sound, and there
upOn, like any other intelligent body Of
legislators, declined to exclude it from
the English market. The English are
very particular about their food, and If
the meat had been diseased they would
have said so.
EVERY nation has rights that it has
right 70 protect, and the issue here raised
touches one Of them. So far as this
goes we are being tramDled upon
by both France and Germany. In the
season of 1o79-S0 the two cities Of
Antwerp aud Hayre received shipment Of
the American hog product TO the amount
Of nearly $l0,000,000. a single house in
this city shipped $4,000 cases Of bacon to
for Germany, and maintained at
Antwerp a branch house whore fifteen
clerks were employed.

HE CORRUPTED HIS MASTER.
The Old Family Colored Servant Who
Ran way Every Autumn.

The Old Family ColOrea servant VINO
Ran Away Every Autumn.
From tie Southern Bioouac.
A welI-to-do old farmer, in one OF the
best counties in Middle Tennessee, owned
a largo number of slaves, and among
them an old darkey about his own age,
and whom he had known all his life. In
fact, he was one of the sold family ne
groeso brought out from Virginia. Old
SAM was faithful, docile creature, a
great favOrite with his master, and sort
of privileged character on the plantation.
The old fellow was Industrious and ex-
emp2ry in his behavior all the year
round, except during the period dating
from the time when roasting ears began
to ripen and the earliest appearance of
frost. sam was invariably seized at that
period with an invincible idea to ''run
away" 1t recurred as. regularly as fit
Of ''hay fever" was as iucurable, and like
that unpleasant disorder could only be
treated by change Of air and locality.
Sam, understanding this, preferred to
take his case in his own hands and al
minister the treatment in his own discre-
ton. OF course. in such a case, the usual
punishment inflicted on runaway nIg-
gers" was not to be thought of. RemOn-
stance was unayailing. Sam declared:
He les couldn't hep hissei," and it be-
came q settled and understood arrange
ment that he should 20, and that the
neighborh0od should cOndOne his raids on
cOrnfields and potato patches. Alter
many such escapades, his old master
asked him on one occasion, when the
matter was under discussion:
"Sam, do you really enjoy running
away?
Deed, Marse john" said Sam, 81 does.
Hits de mOas' fun in de wurP. Coon
huntin' amt no whars TO hit"
"Well, them" said Marse John, "just
let me know the next time you take a no.
ton TO start, and I'll 20 with you, and try
it a while myself"
Sure enough, in due season Sam came
up, saying:
''Ole Marse, de times mighty nigh when
| 'bleeged to lite out. Ef you guiue wild
me, you better be gettiE' ready, fer when
de time comes got TO 90 quick"
sold Marse" kept bright look out, and
when Sam started he was on hand.
They had delightful time. They fished
occasionally, caught 'pOssums, robbed
orchards and watermelon and potato
patches, picked blackberries for recrea-
ton, and haunted the greenest and shadi-
est hooks of the forest, all Of which Sam
knew WELL "Old MarseV had never en-
jOyed a summer so much. In fact he was
so much pleased that regularly atterward
he accompanied sam when the latter went
into an annual retreat. AT length Sam
died. The old master grieved for him
sOrely. He was sad also over the refec-
ton that his summer pastime would in
future be denied him. But the amaze
ment of all his friends, and not less his
own, when roasting-ear time came again,
the fit seized him as strong as ever, and
be ran away by himself.

Hammer SinnnIs.

IRON the HdTdtodre Reporter.
There are few persons, either IN the city
or country, who have not at times watch
ed blacksmith at work in his shop with
his assistant or striker. They have noticed
that the smith keeps up "A constant sue
cession OF motions and taps with a small
hand hammer, while with his left hand no
turns and moves the hot iron which the
assistant Is striking with a sledge. The
taps are not purpOseless, but given en-
trely for the direction OF the striker.
When the blacksmith gives the anvil
quick, light blows, IL is signal 70 the
helper TO use the sledge, or TO strike
quicker. The force OF the blows given by
the blacksmith's hammer indicates the
force of blow It is required to give TO the
sledge. The blacksmith's helper is sup
posed TO strike the work in the middle Of
the width OF the anvil, and when this re-
quires 20 be varied the blacksmith indi-
Gates who're the sledge blows are TO fan
by touching the required spot with his
hand hammer.
1.-THE sledge Is required 10 have la
teral motion while descending, the black
smith indicates the same 10 the helper by
delivering hand and hammer blows, In
which the hand hammer moves IN the di-
rection required for the sledge TO move.
II the blacksmith deliveries heavy blow
upon the work and an immediate light
blow on the anvil, Il denotes that heavy
sledge blows are required. IN
Ifthere are two or more helners the
blacksmith strikes blow before each
helpers sledge-hammer blow, the object
being TO merely denote where the sledge
blows are to fall. When the blacksmith
desires the ele0ge blows TO cease be let's
the hammer head fall upon the anvil
and continue its rebound upon the same
until 1t ceases. Thus the movements
Of the hand hammer constitute signal TO
the helper, and what appear desultoiy
blows to the common observer cOueu-
tute the method Of communication be-
tween the blacksmith aud his helper.

BUSY BEES IN LONDON.
Great Finds of Honey In Roofs of Build
ings In a Great City.
From tie London Standard.

From TIE London Standard.
Two extraordinary takes OF honey have
Just been made in West Surrey. For the
last sixteen or eighteen years colony of
bees have taken possession Of a niche be-
tween the walls Of the Hauthoy and
Fiddle public houses at Ockham, near
Ripley. The outer walls Of the building
are about feet in thickness, and the bees
made choice of their storehouse at the
very top of the building. which is three
stories high.
The landlord and landlady, with their
daughters, resolved this year upon find
ing out the exact whereabouts OF the
colony. A diligent search was made one
morning under the roof OF the house. and
piece OF comb was found Immediately
below the states, but in such a position
that IL could not be reached. Mr.. Smith.
the landlord, then descended to the
bedroom, and with chisel and hammer
removed a number OF bricks from the
wall, where the whole stock Of bees was
found,
More than 2 feet square OF the wall
had TO be removed, when a wonderful
sight presented itself. A large mass of
comb, about , feet In thickness, filled
with honey was exposed. The bees were
fumigated, after which large pieces OF
honey were cut out, until dish after dish
was iilled with total quantity OF about
100 pounds. The bricks have not
been put into the wall again, but
a glass door has been in-
serted, so that any one interested in bee
culture may have an opportunity OF see
ing them.
Another and still more extraordinary
take Of honey has heen secured at Win
ter's Hall, Bromley, the seat OF Mr.. George
Barrett, Some men were sent 10 take
some bees which had got between the
ceiling OF the coach house and the
granary. They succeeded in taking 300
pounds OF honey. The bees had been
engaged in their novel hiding place
several years. IL was very interesting
sight TO see the way in which they had
worked.
