The Situation in Great Britain.

LONDON, Feb. J.
Gladstone's piety sent him to church
Sunday morning. The crisis, however,
left him no option but to break the
Sabbath, a stream of visitors, including
Earl Spencer and Mr.. Hugh Chill lers
besieged him all day, and the usually
quiet Sunday OF the great Liberal leader
was devoted to the somewhat profane
business OF arranging political combi-
nations. Notwithstanding the gigantic
efforts which are being put forth, but
one conclusion has thus far been reach
ed, and that is that Lord Granville can
not be reinstated in the foreign Office
Between him and Mr.. Gladstone there
exists strong personal friendship, and
his former chief, unadvised, would have
undoubtedly risked whatever opprobri-
um might have followed the selection Of
Lord Granville for his former position,
but the linost universal condemnation
expressed Nby leading Liberals Of his
conduct of affairs during his last term,
precluded the possibility of his nomina-
ton at SO cEitical Il period. Lord Hart
ington las been rendered the foreign
s,ecretarvship, but his nc las been so
lamentably out Of joint over the events
OF the past few days that his willingness
to serve is questioned. Political experts
believe that the only workable scheme
which Mr.. Gladstone can successfully
adopt, is TO drop Home Rule entirely,
aud substitute for it a sweeping PROPOSE
ton far agrarian reforms in ireland,
This proposition should embodya liber-
al scheme for the purchase by the Govt
OF small holdings OF land and complete
system for the relief of the prevailing
agricultural distress the effect of an
equitable, impartial measure would be
rpnedier in it, effects and more paciiy-
ing in its results than abstract Home
Aule, which could perhaps satisfy The
fancies but not the stomachs of the
Irish masses Besides, Lord Harrington
would probably swallow his scruples tc
the extent OF accepting proposition f1r
land reform, while the very mention o.
Home Rule throws him into open re.
volt. Mr.. Parnell would certainly nc.
cept broad proposal for the correction
Of the existing abuses in land tenure a,
an nstallment, and would support i
ministry which satisfied him in this di
rection.

DISBURSEMENTS.

! have the pleasure OF submitting my
semi-annual financial report ending
February l, 1886. The school fund,
from State, county and city, will be
sufficient to cancel bills payable and
complete the remaining session. I'M
der the excellent supervision of Supt.
J. w. Graham, with most efficient
corps of teachers, our public schools
are making rapid progress in every de-
partment. The improved methods
used are perceptible in every class, and
remarkable results show the good and
earnest work done by our teachers. 1t
is especially noticeable in that very i'm
portant branch OF education compost,
ton and the closer study of the English
language on which great attention has
been bestowed. 1t would be a source
of qualification and encouragement to
the teachers if the parents of the pupils
would visit the school frequently.
would call special attention to the fact
that whilst the intellectual and moral
training of the pupils is accomplished
their health must suffer from the over
crowded school-ro0ms, particularly
those of the primary departments.
wish to refer to that much appreciated
and exhaustive work of DIR. Daniel +.
Wright, on school hygiene, and the rec
concentrations OF Supt. j. W. Graham
in our catalogue Of 1885 All citizens
are interested in this important matter
and the city authorities should endeavor
10 remedy the existing evil. l can not

worked with untiring zeal and success.

EARTHQUAKES AND BUILDING

The recent earthquake shocks which
have wrought such havoc in the City
of Charleston and vicinity are probably
unique in being the first in this coun-
try to cause destruction of life. The
widespread destruction of property also
accompanying them cannot but bring
to the mind of every thoughtful en-
gineer and architect the question
whether this hitherto appeared re-
mote danger to permanent structures
is not of sufficient probability to re-
quire its recognition in all designs.
There have been well-detned earth
quake shocks in the vicinity of New
York and many other parts of the
country, and it would seem desirable
that the practical bearings of the sub
ject should be carefully studied. A
recent paper by Professor John Milne
E. G. S., of the Imperial College of
Engineering at Toxic, Japan, sug-
gest the support of buildings in earth
quake counties upon horizontal cast
iron plates, between which are cast
iron shot one-quarter of an inch in
diameter (the cracking strength of
each of which is about 1900 pounds).
He also suggests deep foundation free
from the surrounding earth; that all
arches where such are necessary shall
be curved into, and not form an angle
at, the abutments-in other words,
the substitution of elliptical or other
curved forms for segmental arches;
that windows and doors shall not be
vertically over each other, since they
form lines of weakness, has been re-
peatedly illustrated in destructive
shocks; that high buildings should be
avoided; that upper parts of walls, and
also offs, should be made as light as
possible, and that steeply pitched roofs
are dangerous. Sanitary Engineer.

A very pretty story is going the
rounds of the press of Adelaide Nelson,
who, when the famous st. Louis beauty,
Miss Nellie Hazeltine, called to see her,
seized both her hands, and said: II
want to look deep into your eyes, for
men tell me here that mine are like
yours, and you know men read us
through the eyes" And those two sat
half laughing and gazed for a moment
into each others eyes, such glorious
eyes as both proved, with looks that
had all the earnest innocence of two
children who seek for wills" in each
others eyes. 81 only see that yours
are the most beautiful orbs I ever
looked into" said Nellie at the close of
a minute. And | understand why
men think mine beautiful if they look
like yours" answered Nelson.

A newly married couple who started
from Portland on a wedding trip the
other day were having a hard time at
last accounts. 1t seemed that while
the bridegroom was looking after the
baggage at the station his best man,
who was a trifie nervous, hurried the
bride into the wrong car and started
her for Boston one train too soon. The
disconsolate husband took the next
train, but got to Berwick only to find
that his bride had returned to Portland.
She, against the advice of friends, did
not stop there, but started West again
and got to Boston at the same time he
again reached the starting place. At
last accounts the two were hurrying
backward and forward as fast as steam
could take them, each frantically try
ing to overtake the other. .-1ugusto

the change in the quantity and quality
of the work performed is noticeable
only to a careful observer.

Mr. and Mrs. J. G.. Moore recently
removed from Newark to farmhouse
on the Cranbury turnpike road, about
four miles from New Brunswick, and
their youngest child, a little girl aged
three years was given the privilege of
the garden. Wednesday of last week
baby had a tussle with a hammock
which hung between two cherry trees
at the side of the house, which came
near ending her young career. The
hammock being about three feet from
the ground, and as baby expressed a
wish to get into the deceitful folds. a
servant placed her there and went into
the house. In romping about in the
hammock, the little one worked her
tiny feet between the meshes of the
netting, and in swinging from side to
long over the side toward the ground.
He feet were caught in tenacious
grasp between the meshes, and she
swung with her head just a few inches
above the ground. The cries of dis
tress made by the baby were not heard
within the house, and all the blood in
the little ones body rushed to her head,
rendering her unconscious. A farmer
named Gregson. driving from Dayton
to New Brunswick, while passing the
Moore place, caught sight of the
suspended child, and springing from
his vehicle, ran to the rescue. The
baby's face was nearly purple, and
Gregson believed her dead until his
cries attracted Mrs. Moore from the
house The baby soon breathed again
after some simple remedies had been
applied, but Mrs. Moore realized that
Gregson arrived on the spot just in
time to save the child's life.

farm on the Eastern shore of Virginia.
Within an area of about 5000 acres
live 5000 geese of several varieties,

fed with corn, ETC.. The object is the
collection of down for quilts and pill

A hay fever patient, who says he
enjoys immunity after twenty-nine
years of suffering, writes to the New
York World in the interest of victims
who cannot escape to the mountains
and other exempt localities. He says:
Acting on the idea that neither the
sea nor the mountain air had anv
curative properties, but that it was
simply pure air, adopt the wearing
of pieces of sponge (soft baby sponges)
cut to the shape of the nostrils, fitting
loosely aud not plugging the nose and
keeping them moistened with water.
By wearing these filters, as call them,
l am enabled to obtain pnre air and
entire relief from the worst complaint
the human race was ever afflicted with.
This was entirely an original idea with
me, and having demonstrated its value
during the past ten years to my own
satisfaction, | would be glad to have

A Cuba, Mo-, despatch says: The
bloodiest butchery that ever occurred
in Crawford county took place Wednes-
day night, of last week, on the old
Davis farm, six miles east of here. The
place is now owned by Malcolm Logan,
and his family consists of wife, three
children and an adopted girl, years
Old The first suspicion that a gigantic
crime had been committed was devel-
oped Thursday morning when a neigh
Dor discovered trail of blood leading
to the house. He followed it and on
reaching the house found the front
door open. He entered, and the first
object he discovered was the body of
the adopted girl lying dead in the hall
She bad been killed with hatchet and
life had departed several hours before.
The rear portion of the house was
burned down, and in the ruins were
found the charred remains of Mrs.
Logan and her three children. The
body of the father was missing.
The trail of blood was again followed.
and mile and half from the house
the body of Mr.. Logan was found hor-
ribly mangled. He had also been cut
with hatchet and his body was
dragged some distance to the railroad
track and placed on the rails. He re-
Gently disposed of some property and
received $1,000, and robbery is sup
posed to have been the motive for the
crime. The thory is that the family
were killed in their sleep and after Mr..
Logan was struck he escaped from the
house and was followed by the assassin
and finally killed There is no clue to
the murderer.
