To the Bench Curran could be at

days Judge Robinson made an at

cate. Robinson it was currently re-

lication ofpolitical pamphlets, remark
able only for their slavish nleanness
and scurrility. In arguing his case
Curren said be had consulted ell his
law books and could not fnd the
principle contended for. I suspect,
Sir said Robinson, that your law
library is rather scanty.' 1t is very
true, my Lord, said Curra q, that my
books are not numerous; but / have

zion rather by the study of d few

The most terrible thunder storm on
record IL stated to be one which occurred
man years ago In the small village Of
Chauteauneuf les Monsters, In the de.
partment Of Basses-Alpes. During the
time of service, the village church was
struck by three masses Of fire falling in
rapid succession.
Nine people were killed and eighty
two wounded; al had paralyzcd limbs,
Is we'll . sustaining other injuries.
The cure Of Monsters, who had come
over to assist at mass, was found after
the first confusion had in some degree
subsidized, lifeless, severely SCARED aDc
paralyzed. His garments were burnt,
the gold lace Of his stole melted and
the silver buckles Of his shoes broken
and thrown to the other end Of the
church. He suffered from the injuries
he had received for two months, and
his arms were paralyzed forever.
The church was filled with thick
black smoke, through which the only
light to be seen was the flames OF the
burning clothes of the poor creatures
who had been struck. A young child
was torn from its mothers arms and
flung about six PAGES from her; .
youth, at that moment chanting the
Epistle, felt as IL seized by the throat,
and then was flung outside the church
door, the missal being torn from his
hands and riven to pieces. A young
man living in this neighborhood was
very low, and, his friends said, dying
from Consumption, but after taking .
few bottles Of Piso's Cure. he fully re-
covered.-E. w. SPANN Chapel Hill,
Tex. All the dogs in and about the
church were killed rs they lay or stood !;
and the officiating priest alone, clothed
in silk received no injury.

He Went Too Far.


Excuse me-" he said. as he halted a
gentleman in the corridor of the City
Hall. ''but will you lend me your eye

He put them on his nose to read a
letter and returned them with:
Thanks! Have you the correct
time? All! Ten-thirty.
He set his watch and confidentially
inquired:
Haven any tobacco about Won. eh?'
He was handed box and. after help
ing himself 10 liberal share, he re-
marked:
Il want to mail letter in the box
here, but l find | have no postage

mailed his letter he said:

to learn that she not only Is not able to
give the information he seeks, but
stoops to deceit 10 cover her inability.
The boy who finds out that his mother
lips can utter word that Is not strict
" tue is to be pitied. but his mother is
more to be piticd." A suggestion fol-
lows to the effect that mothers might
get their children to help them more at
the household work and in turn study
a little with the children, and thus all
would learn something and an era of
mutual helpfulness would set in. /
cordially commend the idea. Mothers,
and fathers, too, are far too addicted
to the habit of checking the wholesome
spirit Of inquiry and Investigation in
their children. which is the mark Of a
