sorS hSszusrhrss shout wife, or mistress {:
Jealousy or revenge. The two latter are un-
deniable the strongest passions that imOel
men to commit crime. Then there are C lines
fromampulse and from premeditation; all
OF them equally guilty in their various
degrees bsfore the law, yet some of
which would seem to be crimes to which
the perpetrators are driven by irresistible
forces, for the arousing of which the vic
Tins are largely responsible. Such was the
case, apparently, in a recent murder in
in New York City, when it was shown that
the murderer had been reduced to absolute
poverty by the man he afterwards killed,
While the law cannot, of course, recogni re
such provocation, public sentiment is
strongly impressed with the conviction that
such a criminal is deserving of considera-
ton beyond what is extended to ordinary
coldblooded murderers. At the same time,
crimes of impulse are far more numerous
than those of generalization.
Regarded as a whole, the criminal, ele-
ment IN the metropolis is under better con-
troll than under any other large city IN the
world. Our effective police and superior
detective system are the main causes of this
fortunate condition of affairs. With the
elimination of ''toughs" element, the wiping
out of the gangs that infested the city, and
the suppression of the young class of Grim
ais, whose ranks contributed to fill the
Jail and decorate the gallows, the cuange
for the better has come. Not since the
days Of the Whyos have we heard the
boast of a young murderer that he hac
''done his man" and was therefore fiji
companion for other graduates in capita
crime. W. f. HOWE.

How an Emperor Goes Shooting.

Vienn ma Dispatch to the London Daily Tele.
graph.
The emperor's hunting party in Syria is
now favored by splendid weather. The
royal hunters went out singly the other day,
and Prince Leopold Of Bavaria made the
largest bag. Yesterday morning the entire
party, after having gone out to hunt early,
returned for mass at $50, it being the
emperor's fete day. The life led in the
little hunting box is Of the simplest, game
of cards being the greatest gayety ever
INDUCED in after the days laborious and

house contains a large number of rare
works of art, the finest being q COL

entrance hall is decorated with a wealth
Of trophies of the hunt, and beneath every
pair of stag's horns is the name of the hunts

On the emperor's writing table is a porGrai t

the hunting box hold large number of

How Long Do You Sleep
From The london Lancet.


Insomnia is rightly regarded as one of theI
marks OF an overwrought or worried nerv--
Gus system, and conversely we may take III
that sound sleep lasting for a reasonable
period, say, from six to nine hours in the.
case OF adults, is fair test of nervous CON-
petence- Various accidental causes may
temporarily interfere with sleep in the
healthy; but still the rule holds good, and q.
normal brain reveals its condition by
obedience to this daily rhythmic variation
Custom eau do much to contract ones
natural term of sleep, fact of which we.
are constantly reminded in these days OF
high pressure; but the process is toos
artificial to be freely Employed
Laborious days with scanty intervaisI
Of rest go far to secure all the need
full conditions of insomnia. In aIlottingi
hours of sleep it is impossible to adopt any
maxim or uniform custom. The due allow
ance varies with the individual Age. con-.
stitution, sex, fatigue, exercise, each has its
share Of influence. Young persons and
hard workers naturally need and should
have more sleep than those who neither
grow nor labor. Women have by common
consent been assigned a longer period OF
rest than men. and this arrangement, Ia the
event Of their doing hard work, is in strict
accord with their generally lighter physical
construction and recurrent iniirmities. Abb
solute rule there is none, and it is of littla
moment TO fix an exact average allowance.
provided the recurrence OF sleep be regular
and its amount sufficient for the needs of
given person, SO that fatigue does not re-
suit in such nerve prostration and irrita>
blllty as render healthy rest impossible

Number of People Since Adam.
from The st. Louis RepubI


Did you ever make calculation of the
number of people that have inhabited this
globe since the beginning Of timer No
doubt you will say that such calculations
involve loss of time and are, after all.
barren of results, but as we are engaged in
giving curious readings aud odd calcula-
lions. let us take a few minutes time and
approximate, with certain degree of accu-
racy, at least, the number of souls that
have been ushered into and out Of this sin-
full world since the time when it was not
good for Adam to be alone. At the
present time it is believed that there
are 400. 600 human beings on our globe:
but let US suppose there has been but an
average of 900,000,000 living at one time
since the creation. To give room for any
possible doubt as to the average length OF
life, we will put it down at so years. 1t
may have been longer than that during
Bible times; it has been much shorter, how
ever, since.) With the average length of
life, reckoned as above, we have HAD two
generations of 900, 000, 90 each every century
for the past 5000 years. Taking this for
granted, we have had about GO, 627, 543, 237,-
075, 1855 inhabitants on this globe since the
beginning Of time.
Admitting that there is a great deal of
guess-work about this speculation, and that
it has been hastily and perhaps inaccurately
done, it win be peceived, nevertheless, that
our earth is a vast cemetery. On each rood
OF it 1888 human beings have found q
burial place. A rood being scarcely suffi@
cient for ten graves, each grave must
contain the remains of 1879 persons. Ths
whole surface of the globe, If all peoplel
bury within the earth as we do, has beer
dug over 120 times in order to get room fol-
burial places.

The Henderson Post Office.

EDITOR Leaf noticed in your paper
of the 18th inst, the paragraph quoted
from the Washington correspondent of
the Durham Tobacco Plant, under date of
April 18th, and must say he is badly
informed in regard to the Henderson
post Office; or is trying to boom very
weak candidate, Mrs. Col. Ike Young,
who in my humble opinion is not needed
or wanted in this administration. He
says she is backed by strong political in
fiuence North and South, and l suppose
from his information she is not backed
by home influence, which is deemed most
essential to obtain such appointments.
As to Tom Harris, l will say that he
has never filed papers of any kind asking
or petitiOning for the Henderson post Of
flee; but had he done so l have every
right to believe he could have secured the
endorsement OF the Congressman from
this district which | am sure would have
secured said place or any other reasona-
BILE appointment in the district, giving
him walk over in spite of all former
precedents."
Hon. H. p Chatham know, filed and
endorsed the petition of colored man
with strong home endorsements and per-
sOnal recommendations of four Or five
attorneys, the Mayor and several bust
ness men of Henderson. "My authority
is personal knowledge of this matter while

Texas Siftings IL Home Paper.

We desire to have it distinctly under
stood that 1eras Siftings is a paper for the
family. and that nothing of vulgar or
indelicate character either in the way of
pictures or letter-press will ever be adj
mitted to its columns. Our aim is to pro-
duce an illustrated humorous paper that
will be acceptable to and welcomed in the
most refined American and English homes,
and the commendatory letters we are re-
ceiving from heads of families on both
sides Of the Atlantic are most fattering
and encouraging. We will say in this con-
nection that certain people make great
mistake in sending anecdotes and jokes of
a broad charactert to Sittings, thinking they
will appear. They are promptly con
signed to the waste-basket. 1t will be Oh
served by reference to our advertising col
umns that they too are kept clean. We
are adding very rapidly to our circulation
iii every State in the Union through yearly
subscribers, and realize more than ever our
responsibility to make Settings home
paper, hoping to win for it a welcome
place by every fireside, as an irreproacha-
BILE vehicle of undefled wit and humor.-
