A Freak of Nature.

The child born to Mr.. and Mrs. D. W.
Middlemas yes erday presents a singular
freak of nature in the fact that it has no
forearms, says the Helena Independent oil

joined at where the elbow joint forms in
normal cases, and the arms are no longer
than if amputated at the elbow joints. The
hand on the left arm is folded back upon
the front Of the arm, while on the other it
hangs straight. In other respects the child
seems strong, healthy and we'll formed.

work to deserving women, many of

work to deserving women, many of whom have seen better days and to whom the employment they receive and consequent remuneration is of great source in keeping the wolf of poverty from the door, The institution is also of much ser vice as a means through which the ladies of our city can get fine sewing done n most admirable and satisfactory manner, and at cost price, while the existence of such an agency at hand is great convenience. All work received is done at ordinary prices The institution pays out all the work, and the recipients of the work are trustworthy persons of experience and relia- bi1ity who need the work. The association requires an increased number of annual sub scriptions to pay the room rent, cost of gas and wages for the agent It met with losses last year, through no fault of the society, which impaired it's stated income. an increase of annual sabscmptions, would be gladly welcomed and enable the management to continue the good work of the association. It has long filled it's field of usefulness to the qualification of patrons and material benefit to Borthy, deserving wo- men. It receives erders tor coarse as well as fine sewing, repairing gentlemen's garments, ladies' muffs, etc Ladies say that the fine sewing done through this institution is exc cuted in manner surpassing that done at the most fashionable New York places for such work Also that it is done much cheaper than in these places, and one third cheaper than the same work is done by similar charitable institutions in New York. At the latter also a commission is charged in addition to the cost of the work. The ladies of the association are 10th to abandon the time-honored institution. They devote time and attention freely to this charitable work. but on the monthly pay days of late have been obliged to advance money from their own pockets to meet the current ex, penses. The association holds its annual meeting in March. when final action in re- gard to continuing the institution will be taken

When the question was laid open to discussion Captain Stewart, Captain Cowles and Captain Peters, all of Bones, spoke briefly in favor of the change. MT. Brown of Keys and MT. Dickey also favored the proposed resolutions. Messrs. Rect and Brooks also favored the change. Following these Mr. Goodlett of Wolfs Head, although somewhat intimidated by the array of prominent men against him, voiced the opposition. He was immediately answered somewhat overbearingly by Mr Stewart. The vote viva voce was immedi- ately taken without giving a chance of further discussion and it resulted (about one hun-- dred men voting) in favor of the pro- posed resolution, no one of the op- position when the noes were called for daring to vote against the decision of the societies Following this Professor Richards, who was, present, gave his opinion and experience in regard to the new gymnasium, in favor of which he has been paying his attention for the past college year.
