Creams of Taste,

In the superior animals the sanae Of taste is located almost entirely in the tongue, the organs Of taste consisting Of
 peculiar bodies called taste buibs These
 are very strongly developed in the dog and horse. LeyGig described organs having q structure resembling that of the taste bulbs in the skins of fresh water fish, and he considered that these may possibly be widely distributed taste organs. Dr. Carpenter is. however, of opinion that the scnso Of taste is absent in fish. Taste Is closely allied to smell, and it is probable that fish arc guided in the selection or rejection of food by sight and smell only. In some reptiles the tongue iF long and slender and h others almost entirely deficient, but the sense of taste Is thought to be in all cases absent in reptiles. It is also, as a gen. eral rule, to which the parrot and some others are exceptions, absent or very
 slightly developed in birds It is sin gular thing that they should be without the power to distinguish the delicate flavors of the fruit that forms the food of so many of them. In most insects the palpi, which are small, iointed ap- pendaSes in the neighborhood of the mouth, seem to answer the purpose ot an organ of taste.-New York Telegram.

A RACE AFTER THE BABY.
How the Mother Was Transferred iron
 the Engine to the Train.

How the Mother Was Transferred from
 the Engine to the Train.
 Twenty years have passed since a cer- tain Bath sea captain, entering the port of New York, telegraphed his wife at Bath to join him at the metropolis, pre- pared for a sea voyage. Accordingly, a day or two after the arrival of the mes sage saw the wife embarked upon the through train from Bath to Boston, ac- companied by an infant child scarcely 2 years old.
 This car was shunted on to the end of the Portland train at Brunswick, and leaving the child asleep, the captains wife seized the opportunity to fill the baby's bottle with milk in the depot res taurant. While the mother was intent upon her errand the train slipped quietly out of the station, and when the mother emerged from the restaurant door it was fast disappearing under Spring street bridge. Eagerly she explained the situ- ation to the sympathizing group of rail- road men who gathered around Baby and purse, containing all her money and ticket, were in the fast disappearing train. A hurried council followed, and plan was instantly formed.
 Old No. 23, ''The Brunswick" was sidetracked, waiting the passage of the train just gone. Uncle Thompson, the station baggage master at that time, ran hastily to this engine and asked her aid to overtake the flying train. The genial Charles, ever ready to aid the cause of any female in distress, volunteered to catch the robber. Hastily filling the fire box with wood from the tender while Thompson was assisting the woman to mount the engine, with command to i the swttctrnan to "give US the main i hne," with hand upon the throttle, No. g flew quickly over the switches and | commenced her run.
 An empty engine chasing a heavy train up Oak Hill grade" which ex- tends four miles straight away from Brunswick, has an easy task, and before 1 they had covered more than half ots til.t t,lS..t distance they could see the object of l their pursuit.
 To sound his whistle, calling the atten- tion of the train men to the chase and thereby stop the train, was not part ot | the programme, fearing that he might run over them should they suddenly stop So quietly running along, the roar of the train deadening the pursuit, he is soor immediately behind them. Then his tender-for they are running backward -rubs against the rear platform of the train, and while the engineer holds hel there Thompson assists the woman over the tender, down npon the platform oi the car containing the baby, still fast asleep, the mother clasping tightly tho bottle of milk.-Waverly Magazine.

About an Eren Thing.

A simple, good hearted servant girl, who is valued highly by her employers, came to her mistress the other day to ask advice. She said she'd been wont to give another girl in service a present at Christmas time for many years, and al- ways received a present from her. This year she didn't know what to buy.
 "How much do you think of spend ingT' her mistress asked.
 T can afford about 8, ma'am."
 ''Then you take your $2 and give it to your friend and ask her to buy present for herself. She knows what she wants better than you do."
 This struck the girl as a splendid idea and she carried it into effect. Her friend was delighted, too; so much so, in fact, that the next day she presented Mary, the girl who had inauguratad the reform, with $2 in like fashion, asking her to buy Q present to suit herself.
 Thus, not cent changed hands, and the two young women felt they had de monstrated their mutual regard in g highly satisfactory manner.-Pittsburg DiSDatch

Renewal of the E'eua Between the Sow
 ders and Turner Factions.

CHICAGO, March 23rd.-A dispatch to the Times from Pineyille, Ky, says :: The foud between the Sowders and Turner factions in Bell county, Ken lucky, has broken out again, and the prospects are there will be much bloodshcd The feud has so many ramifcations that it is impossible to tell where 1t originated or why 1t con tinues to exist. A section of the par ties has been in arms at Barbouryille for some time past. Tho fight began early last week over a quarrel between two representatives of the opposing factions.
 Friends of the families hoclled to their assistance For several days early in the week the mountains in vicinity of Barbouryine were alive with determined men armed to the teeth The inevitable came and a pitched battle was fought, in which it is said more than five hundred shots were fired, and number of people were wounded; but the injured were spirited away, and the number cannot be learned
 5@sA Sheriffs posse was sent to arrest the rioters, but they were fired upon and driven back to Barb0urville. It was then that Judge Gull himself headed the posse and made for the mountains. Another pitched battle resulted but the Judges party, strong and well armed, were victors, and sue ceeded in arresting five of the desper- adoes, among them two of the Messes | and Galloway Carnes, a brother of the l Deputy Sheriff of the county. The i Sherilf2s possee Is still in the noun tains, after, others of the outlaws, and | before the month ends it is likely a dozen lives wia be sacrificed in the effort now making toenforce the laws | Not only are the people of this city and county alarmed, but those oI Knox as well, and nobody ventures out unarmed and few unaccompanied by friend. Tonight word was re- ceived by courier that in fight neal Salt Trace last night four men were killed and half dozen wounded Achievements have gone out. Thous ands of armed men are now in the mountains and 1t is safe to say the men will never hear of it. A fort i: being erected by one of the factions and rumors of killings are too mum erous to mention The Sheriffs O three counties are arranging to make a combined attack against the out laws, who swear they never will bt taken. Governor Taylor will be asked for a regiment of militia.

Abrut EcrScs' Feet.

Perhaps the weakest point in our grand breed of cart horses is their feet, particularly if we include ther coronets, which are apt to be afflicted with side bones and ring bones, says The Saturday Review. Ill paved cities and over stony roads good feet are of the most inpor tance, yet there are men Of TO little ex- perience who are of opinion that the feet Of a thoroughbred horse will generally bear more battering upon hard and rough surfaces than those of a draught horse. With regard to their heels and legs it may not be generally known that, while Englishmen like to see them well covered with long, wavy hair, the con trary taste prevails in many parts of America, where the sudden and severe frosts are apt to freeze a superabltndance of wet hair into solid mass It may be worth mentioning that the monks at the Hospice of St. Bernard prefer the smooth coated dogs to the rough for pre- cisely the same reason, although English dog fanciers are fondest of the rough coated St. Bernards.

Words Yielded tn Snno.

Mir Gilbert and Sir Arthur Sullivan are understood to 'get on'' with one an- other very pleasantly, but, generally speaking, there is no more vehement ani mostly than is engendered between the man who writes the song and the man who sets it to music, Each of them calls it his song and ascribes it's popu- larity solely to his part in its production. But it is certainly the fact that not even Lord Tennyson's verse is half so valu- able in current coin as ballad of the music hall that has caught the ear of the public. It is not until music is ''wedded to immortal verse; that verse, in most cases, becomes immortal, or at least fetches any extraordinary price in the market. Only the other day the dam ages claimed for singing ditty of which somebody held the copyright were no less than e70O. What poet ever received the tenth of such sum for the words themselves? What is very curious and shows how we stick to old saws, ''thor- oughly worn out, the souls of them fumed forth, the hearts of them torn out," is that we still use the term, ''sold for a song," as an expression for cheap ness.-London Independent.

-7-7'7 - --7- Swallowed a Live Fish.

While dance was at it's zenith of pleasure at the residence of Mir. Claw son, bucket of water was drawn from the well and brought in which contained a sucker fish about five inches long. The fish had been placed in the well by the children. The appearance of the sucker in the drinking water caused comment by the company. during which one of the young yeomanry " flowed he could swaller the reptile fer fun CT money" This observation occasioned no little bantering and bullyragging, until finally he was told that he would be given $1 if he would throw it under his collar.
 The boaster said he would go him; and, taking the fish by the tail, he laid back his head, spread his potato trap from pole to pole, and let her go, Gal lagher. The finny explorer shot down the yawning gullet like a well greased toboggan, it's extended fins raking the sides with sort of ripping sound as of laeeratiou, and siekening to hear The feat accomplished, the swallowe unbut-
