Road Work.

The Ocl,IcAs Aarocatc in its last issue
make the statement that Fall River Co.
had to pay for the pike read up Fall
River. Wedislike to believe our neigh
bor made that statement maliciously
but wonld rather be charitably inclined
and think it was without the knowledge
of law and facts. The truth is as ev-
cry taxpayer knows who has read any
of these papers in the county, publish
ing the county commissioners proceed
ings. that ali warrants drawn for the
pay of roadwork are on the districts
where the work was done in any dis
trict must lie pald by that district and
not one dollar by any person outside.
Look up the law and facts Mr.. Jones
and take back what you say about
Hot Springs district. We are credita-
bly informed, that after the Grand Ju-
ry reported that the county commits
sioners had exceeded their limits in the
issue of road warrants in several dis
tricts, of which Oelrichs was one, a Ger.
tain official living at Oelrichs presented
road accounts to the board which un.
der the circumstances could not be al
lowed. That at the next meeting these
accounts were presented as bridge ac
counts and allowed on the county fund
That the bridge warrants were allowed
is true. but whether this change wa
made by this party we do not know.

Napoleon at st. Helena.

The Listener, years ago, knew a sea cap
tain, one OF that fine type of knights Of the
sea that has become extinct along with the
American carrying trade, who had seen
Napoleon at st. Helena. The old captain
he was then young captain-had made in
effectual attempts during a prolonged stay
at the island to see the captive, but in vain.
The English authorities, who with very good
reason suspected Americans of being and will
ing, if not prepared, to spirit Napoleon away,
resolutely denied the captain any oppor-
tunity to visit Longwood
But Yankee perseverance is not easily baf
fled. The captain in his rambles had discov-
cred point of view commanding Napoleon's
favorite promenade. There, securely en-
sconced with his trusty and powerful ships
glass, he marked down Napoleon. The glass
was so powerful that Napoleon's every mo-
ton as he talked with an attendant was
clearly to DO discerned. Once Napoleon
turned his face full toward the captain, and
the face of the great man was for an instant
set in the telescope as a miniature, and the
wonderful eyes looked full into those of the
Yankee captain. The latter described them
as beautiful hazel eyes, deep and pathetic,
rather than penetrating. They were the
eyes of the world conqueror conquered

play by the new impressions IL constantly
receives, and so it nearly always happens
that child is given its final direction in life
during its period of greatest mental activity
before it is years old
Fathers generally know almost nothing of
their children because Of lack of sympathy
with them. The masculine mind In the full
grown man Is nearly always commonplace
1t cannot reach the level of the mind of
childhood, to which there are no common
places. The mothers mind is nearest to that
of the child, and on the mother its education
most depends. She succeeds in the measure
of her sympathy with it. If she shares its
wondering awe of the many mysteries of the
world, and feels the sublime as inherently
and unconsciously as the child does; if the
world and life have not ceased to be awful
to her. she succeeds in the largest measure
If she has reduced everything to common
place she will drive the reason of childhood
into commonplaceness, from which there
will be no after escape for it. The
astonishing questions which children ask
questions which not infrequently 60
right to the bottom of the whole mystery of
things-are not mere accidents They are
the result of the keen insight of the reason of
childhood that goes straight for the truth
They may have cost hours, days, weeks Of
bordering and thought. 1t is a mistake to
answer them lightly; it is crime to answer
them fiippantly; for the keenness of the
childish reason is easily blunted, its capacity
for truth easily lost.
To retain the mind Of childhood through
life is happiness that falls to few-the few
great genuises. In one way or another the
childish reason is lost; the childish faculty of
faith, of awe, of appreciation of truth, is
blunted in most who live beyond IL years.
We even lose the memory of what we were
and so despise the reason of childhood.
Women retain it most frequently, and they
can, therefore, better understand and SYM
pathize with their children-St. Louis Re-
publican.

Poisons in Bottle Shoppers.
The frequency of unaccountable deaths
and the spread Of deadly diseases has been
a puzzle to sanitarians. A drop of solder in
a can of fruit will cause the sickness and per
haps the death of the family which has par
taken of it. But there is danger compare
lively new that threatens many. The expense
of the common cork used as a stopper for
bottles has induced many to substitute for it
plug of rubber, which is in no way deleteri-
Gus if it is pure, but to make cork cheaper
still wooden fiber, or rags, mixed with black
lead and then saturated with hot asphaltum
has been substituted for the rubber. An ex-
animation of this fiber with microscope
has been made, and it is found to contain
blood, pus and deadly virus, showing that
the material out of which it Is made is the
cast of clothing from hospitals, quarantine
and similar places. The blaek lead is in itself
a virulent poison, but even that is not the
worst of it The fluid contents Of the bottle
dissolves the blood, pus and other de6lement
of the cloth, which are taken into the system
in drinking. Chicago News
