Egg Laying Extraorainary.

The turtle had ascended the beach to
point above high tide, had stirred up the
sand, leaving q great heap over her eggs,
and returned to the water but a short
time before we landed. This was shown
by the ebbing tide, which had retreated
only short distance from her last tracks.
The eggs were laid in bunch and covered
with sand foot and half deep. There
were just 139 of them. They resemble a
white rubber ball, an inch and half in
diameter. The sea turtles eggs have
peculiar flavor, but are very palatable.
The CLAIR becomes tough and leathery by
boiling, and is always thrown away.
The breeding season of the loggerhead
(chclonia carettal lasts from May well
into August, according to the statement
of our guide, who also said that they de-
posted eggs several times in this period,
producing as many as $50 at the first lay
ing, and perhaps no more than two or
three at the last The natives make a
business like search for these eggs each
year, and sometimes surprise the female
turtle on the beach. When she has once
begun the egg laying process it has to be
finished, even if she is turned on her back
and made prisoner Immediately after.
The extraordinary egg producing power of
these animals is all that preserves them
from immediate extinction. - Popular
Science Monthly.

just the Same as srIllionalres.

A fashionable craze among men OF
small means is to have a bank account
and to make all payments by check. The
savings banks ordinarily do not permit
deposits to be drawn out by checks, and
when money is taken from the institution
the pass book has to be presented to the
cashier, and most of the national banks OF
this city require $500 to be placed in their
hands before they will open a current nc
count. A few of the larger institutions
require deposit of from 81, 900 to $4,000.
The banks stipulate that the deposit shall
never be less than the sum they require to
open the account, but this rule is not en-
forced in all banking institutions. The
deposit of $500 is in some of the small
institutions not enforced, and very often
if the accounts could be seen the balance
to the credit of the depositor is only q few
dollars.
Payments by cheek are the safest way
of settling any account, said q cashier
of bank to a reporter. "If you give q
man q check he must indorse it before he
can get the money, so that you always
have his receipt. Then the money is paid
by the bank to some responsible person,
so that the payment can always be proved
by tracing how the money was paid.
Should check be lost payment can
always be stopped. New York Mail and

FORCING in tho Public Schools.

know perfectly well that 1 shall prob
ably be called an old fogy, If not crank,
for presuming to think that anything in
the past can be better than the present.
But l insist that the forcing system, as
practiced in many of our schools, is con-
ducive neither to good education, good
health nor to beauty of face or form. To
learn many things indifferently and none
well is now the practice in most of our
public schools, where SO many of our girls
spend six hours of the day trying in vain
to translate some obscure passage in Virgil
or to solve some difficult problem in alge-
bra. Nor does the hard study end with
the six hours close confinement, varied
only by change from one class room to
another or the climbing of stairs, which
sooner or later is sure to tell upon the
physical frame. Where there are so many
lessons to be learned, and so long, there
is scarcely any leisure for exercise in the
open air or recreation of any kind, no
time for home intercourse or duties and
those talks with mother or grandmother
which in after years will be so precious to
the woman and remembered long after
Cicero and Euclid are laid upon the shelf.

Going a Little Too Ear.

There was a case in the paper the other
day in which it appeared that lady's
maid named Vincent had been dismissed
for refusing to lace her mistress boots.
Now, it seems to my unsophistocated
mind that this valeting, whether male or
female, and whether~the valet be prison
warder or not, is very poor business on
both sides, and quite as degrading to the
valeted as to the valet. I don't think that
I should like to be stripped or dressed by
another person. have never known

A WILL APPEARs

Discovered After n Number of Months The Futile Estate Of Hamden-Twen. Iy ThOusand Dollars.
 It had been supposed that the late James Futile of Hamden died intestate, no will having been found when the heirs searched for it, and the customary advertisement in such cases was published setting forth that MT. Futile died intestate. Deceased, how ever, made will in 1882. Lawyer j. A. Wood prepared it and at Mir. Tuttle's desire placed it in his office safe awaiting Mir. Tuttle's desire. Mir. Futile never called for it, and when MT. Wood went to Florida he turned it over to Lawyer Ullman to hand to MT. Tut tie whenever he should call for it. A short time ago MT. Wood, soon after his return from Florida, saw the probate adveI tise- ment. MT. Wood notified William Futile, a clerk at w. B. Fenn & Co.'s shoe store, who was grandson of the deceased, that his grandfather had left will. This was news to MT. Futile, as he had never heard that there had ever been any will.
 Mir. Wood then consulted with Charles F. Futile, the Broadway merchant, and admin lstrator on the estate, and they concluded that the only thing to do would be to put the will in the hands of the court and have it probated.
 According to the will MT. Tuttle's two sons, Charles F. and William, and the two children of the latter, William and Mary, are to share equally in the estate, which is supposed to be worth about $20,000. If the will had rot been found the two sons Charles and William would have inherited the whole estate, but as it is the grandchii- dren are placed on an equal footing with the children. The testator, so far as known, never happened to mention that he had made the will

The Latest Murder Case in Danbury-
 Burns was Pounded to Death
 DANBURY, Conn.,, May 17.-The verdict of the coroner's inquest over Francis Burns, who was found dying in an alleyway in the rear of John McNiff's saloon Monday morn ing, is that the deceased met his death from concussion of brain and other injuries, the result of blows inflicted by John MeNif. His trial began to-day. Several witnesses were examined, the evidence of each being very damaging to the prisoner, who will endeavor to prove that the assault was committed in self defense while Burns was stealing from his store. The evidence would seem to prove that Burns was pounded to death with little or no provocation. McNiff's record is bad one for assaulting people

The New MOgul Locomotive for the

 There arrived in this city yesterday one of the six monster express engines that the Bald win Locomotive works of Philadelphia are constructing for the Consolidated road. She was brought to this city under the charge of Superintendent of Motive Power John Henny, jr. She will be No. IA. It is the opinion among the men that the new engine just re- ceived is the finest and most perfect machine ever on the road. When coaled and her tanks filled with water her weight will be 95 tons. The cylinders are 20 inches in diane ter and the driving wheels-four in number are 51I feet in diameter.
 Under the tender is an attachment for scooping water from track tanks, and this is the first engine of the road to be thus equipped. It is the intention to locate these tanks at suitable distances between New York and Springfield, so that water can be scooped into the tender without stopping the engine This arrangement will be for the limited trains, and several minutes of run ming time will thus be saved.
