No Such Accident Occurred.

A friend writes the Dispatch from Cor
louisville that the letter which appeared in
our issue of yesterday describing the de-
capitation at that place by railroad tram
of one B. ". Henry was an imposition. No
such accident occurred. The letter bore
every evidence of having been written ID
good faith. else it would not have been

A MOTHER VINO SP.4NKS,

the editor of the New York Sun:
Among many things in your paper

question, and if more mothers held the
same views that do we should not see
so many saucy and bad children as we
do on every hand Pert and forward
bows and girls are an annoyance to all
around them, and disgrace and sor-
row to their parents. I have brought
up four in all,-not different from the
general run, presume, boys and
girls, health, and full of life and mis-
chief, and little of the old Adam, ,
with which we are all supposed to be
endowed. I have found that they
needed training just as much as they
did education; have tried seclusion, re-
monstrance, rewards and coaxing, par
ticularly with Number One,' but have
found that nothing was so good OF effec-
tive as good and timely spanking, we'll

five years old with the hand, and after
that with slipper or hairbrush. I have
seen child as wilful and peeyish as
possible changed in three minutes by
this process into loving and lovable
one. Have tried an hour rocking and
storytelling until both she and 1 were
tired out, and then put my youngest
girl to sleep in five minutes by rolling
her over and giving her mild spank
ing, just enough to get up counter

children are brought up in this way.

rarely need any punishment after six
or seven years; and I would advise any
mothers of young children, either girls
or boys, who are trying any new way Of
bringing up children and finding them

its efficacy, I really enjoy benefitine a

LURED BIZ AN OSTRICH.

Every boy who is fond of shooting
knows that there are several species Of
birds which, when surprised on the nest,
feign lameness Or some other injury.
The object is to produce the impression
Oh the verdant hunter that his prey
cannot escape him, and thereby to be.
guile him away from its nest. An En-.
glish hunter discovered one day that
the African ostrich was up to this trick.
While riding along an ostrich jumped
up so close before his horse that the
rider thought the animal had stepped
upon the bird. 1t seemed to be an easy
thing to knock the bird upon the head,
for it apparently could do nothing more
than keep few feet in front. But
somehow, just at the moment the hunter
expected to overtake the ostrich, it
seemed to be gifted with fresh vitality.
The hunted and the hunter doubled
backward and forward, to aud fro. He
dared not Jump off and use his rifle, lest
he should lose sight of the game in the
thick brush.
At last he determined to make dash,
clapped his spurs into his horse. The
beast sprang forward, put his foot into
hole, and sent the rider spinning over
his head. For several minutes the man
sat looking at the hunter. When,
however, the man rose and advanced,
the brute turned. and. with a neigh Of
derision, started for the camp, three
miles off, leaving his rider to follow.
The ostrich had led him step by ster
till a safe distance had been placed be.
tween him and its nest.-Youth's Com.

THE COST OF PRIV1TE cars.

Many eNtravagant stories are in circu-
slation," said George w. Allen, as to
the cost of private cars, such as are
used by railroad magnates, opera sing
ers, imported actors, and millionaires,
and [ have often heard it said that an
average Pullman palace car is worth
100000. Stories are printed about ears
costing all the way from 100000 to
5000, 900. The'fact of the matter is that q
palace car costs about $50, 900 complete.
The makeup Of all cars, regular or
special is about the same. Additional
cost is brought about by the internal
decoration, and that must necessarily be
limited. Idoubt if there was ever a
car constructed that cost more than
$35. 900. To exceed that figure would
require decoration exclusively in Jew
els and precious metals. st. Louis

COURT PAGE4NTS

Paris has not witnessed any very
pleasant pageant for more than twenty
years. Parisians who remember the
display of Napoleon Ill, when, in 1867.
he was visited in turn by nearly every
crowned head in Europe, and by at
least one Asiatic potentate, can find
nothing that has taken place since to
equal it. France is Republican, and
since the downfall of the Empire has
become less ostentatious.
1t used to be the boast Of Spain that
the court of Madrid was the only great
court Of Europe. Madrid es sola corte.
the Spaniards used proudly to declare
IN their musical tongue; but the glories
OF the old Spanish court have pretty

BITING THE FIyGER N.11s

"A novel accident resulting from a
habit Of very common prevalence among
nervous people, is described by DR.. j.
Tuthill, of Chicago. A young lady pre-.
sented herself at my Office, complaining
OF constant irritation in her throat.
Two weeks previously she had been
taken with severe ''sore throat" which
was treated by neighboring physician.
Under his care, she says, the intlamma-
ton quickly subsidized, but there still re-
NAMED sensation OF irritation. Ex-
animation revealed small heshy look
ing object, about the size of kernel of
wheat, adherent to the tissues posterior
to the left tonsil, by one end.
The other parts of the throat were
normal. The little mass could not be
detached by cotton covered probe, but
by the use of forceps it was easily re-
moved, and on examination proved to
be piece of finger nail, which had be-
come covered by cheesy deposit. A
broken piece of the hail was also re-
moved from under mucous membrane
at the same spot 10y a sharp pointed
probe. The patient then confessed to
the habit of biting her finger nails, and,
moreover, could remember that day
or two previous to the onset of her
throat trouble piece of nail which she
had bitten off had become lost in her
mouth, but after it had caused a fit of
coughing she had forgotten about it
until reminded by my discovery,

WEIGHT OF 4 SNOWFLAKE.

The lghtness Of snowfakes is the re
suit of their surface being so great when
compared with their volume, and is &C.
counted for in som degree by the large
quantity of air amid their frozen par.
ticles. Snowfakes contain about nine
times as many volumes of air. entangled,
so to speak, among their crystals, as
they contain water. Very fine and
lightly deposited snow occupies about
twenty-four times as much space as
water, and is from ten to twelve times
lighter than an equal bulk of that fluid.

TIE WORST FORM OF IRRELIGION.
Ctoa4lzx H.. :. 1 =

TIE WORST FORM OF IRRELIGLON.
Costly as their education has been,
not one man or woman in hundred of
the leisured classes has acquired, or
seems likely to acquire, an insight into
the conditions on which society is now
held together. The men, perhaps,
study politics, for they may belong by
tradition to party; and to politics some
add what it is the fashion to call history
for the most part magnifed view of
the same party interests. AS for wo-
men, no one has ever instructed them
that it is their duty to see life steadily
and see it whole" But neither men nor
women care for political economy. What
the average man does understand is
making money. His aim is by some
lucky stroke to become a silver king,
railway OF cattle king, master Of syn
dictate, OF creator Of corner" This
it is that justifies Won Hartmarn's de-
scription OF the nineteenth century as
the most irreligious that has ever been
seen;' this, and not the assault upon
dogma OF the decline of the churches.
There is depth below atheism, below
anti-religion, and into it the age has
allen. 1t is the callous indifference to
every instinct which does not make for
wealth.-Rcr. Dr., WILLIAM Barry IN
the FO2psD1.
