The Meath ease.

On Sunday evening last Samuel Meath,
an Englishman of Independent means,
was arrested at his residence, No. IA
Orange avenue, by Officer Manning, at
the instance of his wife and daughter.
The parties interested were peculiarly
reticent at the time about the case, and
no information could be gathered either
from Mrs. Meath, her husband, or the
officer who made the arrest. A charge
of disturbing the peace was preferred
against Meath, who, after being locked
up in the City Prison for forty-eight
hours, Was taken before Police Judge
Stanton, and, upon arraignment, re-
manded for trial until Friday, the Sth
inst Yesterday afternoon the prisoner
was quietly taken up again into court,
and the charge OF disturbing the peace
changed for the more serious one of
assault with intent to murder. The
officials and the Meath family are still
disinclined to talk OF the matter, but it is
expected that a large-sizsd sensation will
be developed whsn the case comes into
court. Bail was fixed in the sum of
S., 600.

Robson and EThe Henrietta.D
The Henrietta ia one Of the brightest

ingly interesting play. 1t is acted by Mr..
Robson and MIR. Mordaunt, both having
parts in which they appear to the very
best advantage, and the supporting COM
pany is excellent. The cast comprises
the following well-known artists:

Inrious IL True.

Mr.. A. d. l,ing, well known law
yer of Orillia, lost his life on the Grand
Trunk railway. He had been away
on business, and on returning got off
the train while it was in motion. In
stead of getting off at the station side
he took the wrong side of the train,
and had hardly touched the ground
when he slipped and fell so that his
two legs were run over by the Pull
man car. He died in twenty-three
hours. The accident took place at 2
o'clock in the morning, and at day
light q brother of the dying man
drove few miles out from the station
to tell his father of the sad business
To his surprise he found his father up
and dressed awaiting for him.
"Where's Daniel?" eagerly asked the
old gentleman. II saw him about 2
o'clock or little after. He came to
my window and raped at it. / saw

Women as Cigarette Smokers.

A society sheet accuses the Com
tesse dc Paris of smoking short clay
pipe, and not in private either, but as
she drives about. This probably is
one of the tales for which society
sheets are famous. Cigarette smoking
by women, however, is becoming
more common every day in England,
where it used to be considered an aw-
full crime, and only yesterday I heard
u certain well known woman mourn
ing because she had been over two
weeks at house where she couldn't
smoke cigarettes after dinner without
exciting comment, and had been
troubled by her nerves in consequence.

Spnin,s RoYaI Children.

The cardinal archbishop of Sara
gossa, who ofliciated as chaplain royal
at the christening of the two daugh-
ters of the late King Alfonso XII, in
1880 and 1882, came hero expressly
for the confirmation of the princess
of the Asturias and the Infanta Maria
Theresa, now bright, pretty girls, s
and years old. The royal children
are carefully brought up and educated
under the eyes of Queen Christina by
Spanish and foreign governesses.
They already speak English, French
and German, besides their native
tongue. The Infanta Maria Theresa is
brighter, but less docile and more
delicate than her sister. The queen
does not allow them to be spoiled,
though the stately etiquette of the
Bourbon court obliges the attendants
and courtiers to treat them, and even
the baby king, with singular attention.
Old generals and proud ladies of the
aristocracy can be seen kissing the
hand of the little monarch, who is a
lively, talkative, healthy looking child,
2 years and months old. The royal
children are only allowed TO play
with their little cousins, the children
of the Infantas Paz and Eulalia, who
are about the same age.-London

The Meaning of Natural selection.

From what has preceded, we are, I
think, justified in rejecting the inter-
pretations of both extremists as to the
scope and meaning of natural selec-
ton. 1t cannot be debased to the
mere expression of the universally OBJ
served fact of variability; yet it must
be restricted, because it not only i'm
plies something to be selected, but its
promulgator limits its scope to the Sc
lection of something that is useful.
AS philosophy it considers only pro-
cesses, and leaves remote origin and
cause untouched. The following limi-
tations are probably justified today,
and will help to more exact use Of the
term:
/. 1t deals only with individual
variation from whatever cause, and
should not be applied to simultaneous
variation in masses.
2. 1t deals only with variations USE
full to the organism in its struggle for
existence, and can exert no power in
from present knowledge, we are
obliged to consider fortuitous charac-
ters. It cannot perpetuate useless
organs; nor those OF q veStglary or
obsolescent character.
Even with these restrictions, the
principle is far reaching and pro-
foundly important; but it quite fails
to account for many of the most in
teresting manifestations of life that
are obviously not necessary or life
preserving, of which many will occur
to every one, such as, among lower
organisms, many superficial details of
structure; or, as among higher organ
isms, odd habits and customs, playful
instincts, ethical traits, etc. It's limi-
tations must be narrowed in proper
ton as we come to understand the
other laws of modification and the
causes of variations in masses. Pro

The Adiutant Bird.

Talking of adjutant birds, 1 heard
a good story from Mr.. Richards of the
Baptist mission at Lukolela. It seems
that Mr.. Comber of the same mission
used to keep tame adjutant at Lutete
(or Wathen) station, which roamed
about the station, with clipped wings,
in company with monkeys, parrots
and other pets, among them a kitten
belonging to Mr.. Comber. One day
this kitten was heard mewing pite-
ously, though it was nowhere to be
seen. AT last, noticing that the sounds
appeared to be proceeding from the
adjutant, who was standing with his
beak wide open, as though engaged in
swallowing something, with an eff
fort, Mr.. Comber walked up to him,
and looking down his throat saw the
end of the kittens tail about to disap-
pear. Thereupon he grasped the tail
and hauled the kitten out still alive.
Mr.. Richards told me that the truth
Of this story had been doubted in Eng
land; for my part l see no reason to
disbelieve it, and would recommend
those who do to pay visit to the Zoo
and inspect the adjutants there. Those
/ have seen on the Congo held heir
heads as high as tall man and had
beaks and throats of enormous capa-
city, adapted-like those of pelicans
and other birds which lead similar
life-to the catching and swallowing
whole of large fish. The Lutete adju-
tant, am told, on another occasion
swallowed q small dead monkey en-
tire. AS for the kitten-it is well
known fact that cats have nine lives

Mistaken About the Horse.

The other day one of the customers
in Lewiston, Me-, dry goods store
failed to get her purchases, and she
appeared at the store next morning in
a ferment. ''Here, Guy" said the
proprietor, take this lady's bundle
right home with her."
The lady preceded the boy out of
the store, and walking along to the
curbing stepped into the wagon stand
ing there. The boy took the blanket
off the horse, unhitched him and
jumped in. AT the watering trough
on one of tho streets the horse seemed
to want to drink, and the clerk said /:
'Shall give the horse q drink2"
Eyes" said the lady, "give the old
horse drink" and the horse drank.
Arriving at the lady's house, the
clerk looked for the stable and said:
"What shall i do with the horse9
Shall l tic him upY"
Sure" was the reply. II don't
care what you do with him. He's not
my horse. Amt he yoursp
To say that the boy was astonished
is to tell only half the truth. He was
frightened. Taking a philosophic
view of it, he reasoned that very likely
the police were on his track. Instead
of returning by direct road to the
store, he took a roundabout way. In
tho meantime the owner had notified
tho police and had made q thorough
search for the animal, only to find it
where he had left it.-Lewiston Jour-

Making Fool OF Ono OF the Fellows Who
''Have Heard 1t Before"
It is difficult to dwell in love and
amity with the man who inevitably
caps your best story with the remark,
Eyes, I've heard that BEFORE" and
who invariably has seen in the paper
whatever opinion you have to offer
upon any Of the momentous questions
of the day.
Upstir was one of this kidney. He
had exasperated Fogg repeatedly, until
forbearance had ceased to be virtue
but Fogg was pretty hard on Upstir
when lie did strike back-though, to
tell the truth, Upstir hadn't sense
enough to know what q rough ham
ding he was getting. But we antici-
pate.
Fogg-It is a remarkable fact that
cattle, when exposed to the weather,
invariably face the wind, which if
they turned their backs to il would
blow under their hair and chill them.
Upstir-Yes, / saw that in the paper
last evening.
After an interval Fogg has some
thing to say about the tariff.
Say what you will, no system of
impost duties can be permanent which
does not recognize the rights of the
masses"
Upstir-That's just what Blenkin-
sop says in his treatise on CONNER
cial Equities"

When George Washington arrived on
the field of Waterloo the First Michi-
gan cavalry, which was nearly deci-
mated, reformed spontaneously at the
sight of their beloved chief, and in an
incredibly short time they had driven
the Paynim host into dire confusion
and took several thousand prisoners,
including the renowned cavalier Kos
ciusko.
Upstir-Yes, that is word for word
what Bancroft says in his history.
Fogg-And speaking Of cavalry re-
minds me that it is the custom on the
plains for the men to ride with their
faces to the horses tails, in order that
the enemy may not advance too closely
to their rear
Upstir-I saw that in the paper the
other day
Fogg-It is very interesting fact
tnat on the plains the men ire
quently become lost in the thick for
ests which everywhere abound; a
squadron of horse has been known to
wander for years, without food or
water vainly endeavoring to extricate
themselves. The trees on the plains,
you must know, grow to an immense
height and are SO close together that
it is impossible for snake to pass be-
tween them. 1t will therefore be seen
that the men, as they wandered
through these impossible giant
growths, must suffer untold agony
from the sun, which beats down upon
them numerically.
Upstir-What q memory you have,
Mr.. Fogg! You quote from Park
hams "Great West" almost verbatim
Fogg had his revenge and the rest
of the company were scarlet with
merriment; but Upstir was quite un-
conscious Of tho fool he was making
