paradise for Animals.

The Paris Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Anim,ls has a property at
Arceuil Cachan. France, valued at $4,000,
and the annual expense is about $4,000.
The two branch establishments are at
Asnieres. Some time ago visited the
homes of the rescued, and found one of
the most interesting in the Rue Barreau,
Asnieres. Any one who wishes to aban-
don dog or cat throws it over the
wall, and the animal falls upon strong
netting that saves it from injury. Soon
as Its cry is heard woman comes from
the house, rets and feeds the poor
creature, then places it in a cushioned
basket. Every room of this three story
hou:e is heated, and against the walls
are baskets in which lie every kind of
small animals, young and old, beau
tiful and ugly. The Superintendent Of
this establishment also seeks the welfare
of horses; every day she comes to Paris,
and if she sees a street badly paved, i'm.
mcdately letter is sent to the project
of the Seine; if she hears the sound of a
whip. the coachman is implOred, not
commanded: "Strike me, but respect
that poor beast" At the cab stands, she
looks for the animals that need spong-
ing, and gives few sous to each coach
man, so that he will more quickly do his
duty. When she sees horse too old to
work, but nevertheless compelled to
obey, she buys the animal and sends it
TO Saint Denis, where its days are spent
in comfort and happiness Life.

About Kid Gloves.

"Out of 65O,O dozen gloves import
ed last year from France and Germany,
only about 100, 900 dozen were genuine
kid" said a well-known Broadway deal
er in gloves. can expert, however, can
readily tell the skin of kid by the veins
which run through it on the unfinished
side. In preparing skins for the glove
manufacturers a remarkable fact has
been discovered which science has not
been able to explain. The first process
is to soak them in lime water, to take of
the hair. This takes from ten to fifteen
days, according to the nature of the
skin. Locality is the chief thing to be
considered. Skins from one district
drop their hair sooner than those from
another. After the hair has been re.
moved the skins are placed in small
square vat filled with a preparation of
bran water and shaken violently to take
out the grease. This is called the fer
mentatiOn of the skin. A mixture of
eggs, salt and -four is next applied.
The kid is then ready to receive the
color. This is spread on with brush
and the hue fixed with ammonia. In
the case of light-colored gloves" con-
tinued the dealer, "the kid is placed in
a large tank filled with the coloring ma
terial, and trodden upon by bare-legged
men in the same manner that grapes are
trodden in the process of making wine.
Most Of the gloves used in this country
are of domestic manufacture. They are
made in Gloversville and Johnstown, this
State. Fully $4,000 people derive their
living from this industry in this locality.
Almost every family for miles around
are engaged in the manufacture of
gloves. The skins are cut up and dis
tributed among the people for sewing in
the same manner that trousers are sent
out to people living in tenements In this
city. Gloversville and the surrounding
district is ono of the most prosperous
communities in the State. There are
few poor people to be found, and the
distribution Of wealth is remarkably
even."

Itmay seem strange to some of our read
ers that man, after he is reported dead,
should come to life, but it is, neverthe.
less, true, and lie is at this writing sit
ting by the fire in Ordinary Hills Office.
Jim Smith was member of the Banks
County Guards, and during their stay
ct Acquia Creek, in Virginia, the boys
concluded to have some fun out of him.
He was carried out on foraging expe-
dition about one mile from camp, where
two Of the company were posted behind
trees with loaded muskets. The boy
that was with Smith commenced telling
him about the Yankees, and that they
had gone far enough and had better re-
turn or they would be captured.
About this time shot was fired and
the young man fell, telling Smith to run
as the Yankees were upon them. Smith
ran the mile back to camp in race-horse
time, and, after finding out it was joke
played on him, he went crazy, and was
sent to the hospital in Richmond. He
had been in Richmond about one month
when Captain Gambler was notified Off
cially by the chief physician that James
Smith of Company A, I'd Georgia Regi.
ment, had died on a certain day of
pneumonia, and accordingly Jim was
marked on the pay roll as dead man,
and therefore was out of the service.
Jim knew that dead man couldn't be
much of q soldier, and he came back to
Banks county and could never be car,
ried back into the army. He, however,
is not dead, although the Confederate
records, if they are in existence, will
state that Jim Smith is a dead man.
He is alive and doing well: but is not
willing to 60 to war again.-Athens Ban

BENEATH AN AVALANCHE OF LOGS.
Hundreds OF them Rush Over
William Jacques.

On Pine Creek, just below Liverpool
Mills, Pa. jam of logs occurred on the
bank, and the great pile could not be
started down the hill to the creek. The
logs were in such situation that to
find and remove the log that was the
key to the jam was task of more than
usual risk. The men worked OF the jam
from the outer edges nearly all day in
vain.
At last three men, William Jacques,
aged 80, his younger brother, Juan,
and man named Ryan, volunteered to
go out on the logs, find the key log, aud
remove it. As they neared the centre
of the great pile William Jacques, who
was ahead, cried out to his brother and
Ryan to go back, as he saw where the
trouble was; that there was great
danger in removing it, and that it was
needless to risk three lives. The two
men refused to leave him, and he got
them to go above the log on which he
stood, saying they could aid him better
from that point. 1t was plain afterward
that he got them there only to save them
from the fate that was almost certain to
follow the starting of the one log that
held the hundreds of others in check.
One log was lifted up, another one
shifted few inches to one side, and the
trap was sprung. The slippery, peeled
logs rushed away under the feet of the
three men. The two who were above
the danger line managed to reach a
place of safety by the well-known agility
of the log driver in leaping from log to
log.
William Jaques kept for moment on
his feet, and with dexterous leaps made
his way along with the moving, crashing,
laundering mass, down towards the
creek, to reach which meant safety to
him. The men who were watching him
gave a shout as he was almost to the
edge of the water, with the myriad logs
crashing behind him, for it looked as if
he had got beyond the danger. At that
moment log was hurled upward, and
it came down Just behind the lumberman
and caught him in its rebound. He fell,
and in second hundred logs piled up
on the spot, and hundreds O. others shot
and rolled and tumbled on and over them
to the creek.
The instant the rush of logs was over
jacques fellow workmen hurried to re-
move the pile beneath which they ex-
pected to find their companion crushed
out of all human semblance. For two
hours they worked, and then were
amazed to hear a groan from beneath.
At last the found Jacques on the ground
with log across his legs. A big log
that lay near the edge of the water had
been frozen to the ground SO solidly
that it caught the ends Of two others as
they came down in the rush and held
them two feet clear of the ground. With
those two logs Jacques had evidently
gone down, and had fallen between
them, with the end of one of them across
his legs. The two logs had served to
keep the great pile clear of his body, and
had saved him from being crushed.
Both legs were broken, and the flesh
torn off of them to the bone. His jaw
was broken and two ribs fractured. He
was taken out unconscious. AS soon as
he was restored his first words were:
els John all right." meaning his
brother. jacques recovery is doubtful.
