CUT WITH A LAMP.


Yesterday. the venerable mother of Geo.
Robinson, of south Center street, arrived i'll
the city from Steubenville to visit him and his
family. The probabilities are hat she willnot
enjoy her stay much. Early this morning,
while coming down stairs with glass lamp
in her hand. she tripped at the top of the
landing and tell down the entire flight, re-
ceiying very serious injuries. The lamp
was broken in the fall and one of the jag
ged edges cut terrible cash in her left
cheek. The cheek bone was also crushed
in, and the colar-bone fractured. Dr.
Russell was called and rendered the neceS-
sary surgical attention.

A few evenings ago. as Officer Mcclure
was standing near the watering trough. at
the corner of Limestone and Columbia
streets. "Nub" Helfrich. who runs saloon
at the corner Of North and Spring streets,
seeing the officers nippers exposed. advised
Mack to be careful or he would lose them
The officer jokingly told "Nub" to come
over and he would try them OH. Helfrich
complied in the same spirit OF fun, but the
fun was knocked out of the situation when
Mack turned all his pockets inside out in an
unsuccessful search for the key to unlock
the irons. For half an hour while boy
went across the creek to the officers house
and returned with the key. Mack and "Nub"
had to stand and take the jeers and jokes
OF the crowd, and swear they will never
again monkey with the machine unless they
are sure of the combination.

Accident Laundry.

About o'clock this afternoon. Bridget
Murphy. one of the girls employed at
Marshalrs laundry, on west High street,
had her left arm caught and badly crushed
between the two rollers of the collar ironer.
She was in the act of lighting the gas in
another iruner, when She slipped and her
arm was swallowed up between tw" rollers.
The flesh was badly bruised and lacerated,
but no bones broken. Fortunately the roll
lers had not yet gotten hot. As the whistle
had just sounded. Had they been at their
usual fiery heat, her injuries would have
been infinitely worse. Miss Murphy was
taken home in Mr. Marshall'S buggy.

Farm Hints for April.

April is a busy month from Prince
Edwards Island to Puget Sound.
When spring comes in the high
northern latitudes, it is upon us at
once. It is winter one day and almost
summer the next. The heavy SHOWS
draw the frost from the soil, so that
when this disappears the ground is
ready for the plow. While snow lasts
get out the manure, the work goes SO
much quicker and easier on runners
than on wheels. One of the earliest
jobs is narrowing winter grain. The
advantage of thorough narrowing
with smoothing harrow is SO great
that il pays not to SOW grass in the
autumn, but at the time of narrowing
in spring. Grain sowed broadcast by
itself should always be narrowed
several times. Mnltitudes of weeds
are thus killed, and the stirring of the
soil is a great advantage, Grass sown
by itself will almost uniformly give
satisfaction. The earlier spring grains
are sown the better. Forage crops,
such as peas and oats, spring rye,
wheat and vetches orpeas, should be
put in, in succession once in two weeks.
Certain seeds of root crops are very
sensitive to dry weather. Parsnips
must be sown very early; an admir-
able crop for milk, and for neat cattle.
Mangels and sugar beets are best put
in early but carrots at any time
before midsummer. The tendency
Of good practice is to grow more roots,
green forage, and fodder, either for
curing or ensiloing. Do not let
manure heaps heat; work them over,
Or get them under ground. April,
throughout the country, may be de-
pended upon for. several weeks of
blowing weather, though it be

STORY OF A GREAT lMpOSTER.

One day in the year 1855, ~ little
ragged boy stood in front of the con-
vent of the Brothers Of Mercy at Car
tagirone in Italy. His skin was
swarthy, his body attenuated, and his
black eyes had hungry and appeal
ing look in them. Here was an OBJ.
'ject of pity on which the good breth
rem might exercise their charity at
once
In reply to questions put to him,
the child said he came from Palermo;
his name was Giuseppe Balsamo. He
was fatherless and homeless, and thir-
teen years of age.
The compassionate monks required
to know no more. Balsamo was ad-
mitted, clothed, and fed, and placed
under the tuition Of the apothecary of
the convent, from whom he learned
the art Of making up pills and oint-,
ments, and some chemical and med
icaI secrets that he afterwards used
successfully.
Apparently he did not learn piety,
,or at all events he failed to practice
if. for few years later he was ex-
PEELED. He returned to Palermo,
where for short time he lived by
counterfeiting bills, papal dispensa-
tions, permits for monks to leave
their converts at uncanonical hours,
and even tickets for the theatres. On
these frauds being brought to light, he
fed to Messina, and there Joined a
juggler, with whom he Travelled
through Syria and Egypt, thus gaining
a smattering Of oriental languages,
which knowledge be subsequently
turned to some account. o
During these wandering-in 1866

were passengers, was driven by stress

of the priests. and receiving from
them the knowledge Of the ancients:

While in the papal city a woman Of
singular~beauty attracted the atten-

an extraordinary talent for intrigue,
and Balsamo. believing he had found
a kindred spirit, married her. He
