A Ten.FOOt Beard.

Hakluyt tells us of certain Master
Killingworthe, of the court of Ivan the
Terrible, whose beard was five feet
two inches long 1t is also on record
that John Mayo, the German, painter,
had beard which swept the ground
as he walked. These hirsute growths
have hitherto been unrivaled of their
kind but they are now put altogether
in the shade by beard which has
reached the extravagant length of ten
feet, and, We are assured, is still grow
ing. The owner, a certain Louis Gou
Ion, is foreman of ironworks at Mont
lucon, in the French department of the
Allier. He was born in the Nievre, and
at the age of II was obliged to shave.
No sooner was the razor used, however,
than whiskers, mustache, and beard
became quite unmanageable, and, not
withstanding the activity of all the
BARRIERS and the nostrums of all the
quacks in the department, soon quite
covered the waistcoat of the youthful
patriarch. Goulon is now well adj
vanced in years, and his beard, which
was originally brown, is almost white.
The silvery hairs are, however, as Wig
orous "a their chestnut predecessors,
and daily increase in length. Goulon
has learned to turn his monstrous APP
pendage to practical account, and he
uses it as comforter and chest pre-
server, and sometimes even as a belt.

A Woodlands Nerve.

Elisha Lathrop of Bozrah, Conn, is
the proud possessor of a real, genuine
nerve; in fact he would be pleased to
hear of any man who has more of it. In
hauling logs in the forest large log
was thrown from the sleigh and it fell
on his leg, breaking it below the knee.
So heavy was the stick that Mr..
Lathrop's men had to hitch the oxen
by chains to the log and draw it off his
body. MIR. Lathrop was not ratified,
although his men were. They lifted
him to the bottom of the sled and then
helped him to pull off his trousers.
Then, with the aid of the men, and
by means of bandages, and by dint of
severe Juggling at the member, Mr..
Lathrop set his own leg. He had never
seen broken leg set before, but he
said afterward, III describing the opera
ton: Il looked at the other leg for
guide and fixed up the bad one just
like it." After getting the broken
bones into the right place he bound
cloths tightly about the leg, mounted
the load and was driven home. Then
he hitched up his horse and drove nine
miles to the house of DIR. Sweet, the
natural bone-setter. Sweet examined
the job.
"Who set this leg % he asked.
81 did," said Lathrop.

never saw better job. You can drive

NEWS AND NOTES.

One hundred and thirty thousand
persons sleep in the New York sta
ton houses during year. Inc
larger number of them were, IN pre-
vious years, men; now the majority
are women.
The phylloxora has attacked the
Grecian currant, Greece's great sta
pie. The export duty on this artl
Gle is one of the chief items IN the
national revenue, and deficiency is
probable.
An Italian cruiser and two torpedo
boats have been sent to Tangier with
an ultimatum to the Moorish author
tiles demanding satisfaction for IN
suit offered to Marquis de Campl-
oggio. II not accorded the town
will be bombarded within forty-elght
hours.
The famous Democratic statesman
and politician, Allen Ct. Thurman,
who was a candidate for the Vice
President in the last national cleo
ton, undertook to make speech in
Cincinnati recently, but was taken
with sudden physical collapse and
had to be carried to his hotel.
At meeting of the subcommittee
on the site of the Worlds Fair in
New York, resolution was adopted
that no part of Central Park should
be used. This, it is supposed, will
remove the only cause for local OPP
position to the fair, and guarantee
sum which is expected now to in
crease with great speed.
We are accustomed to say, in de-
fning anything of the most solid and
enduring character, that it is as solid
as iron and as hard as steel. Now,
along comes the usual statistics

conclusive statement that eighteen
tons of steel disappear daily on the

Northwestern Railway, through rust
