A Queer Proposition.

Gen. Austin Lathrop, at Albany, N.
T., received remarkable letter a few
days ago. It was from Philadelphia,
and was apparently from well edu-
Gated man. The writer said that he
was poor and out of work, and that he
had large sanity to support. He had
just seen a statement in some news
paper that Gen. Lathrop had some
doubts whether the electrical APP
paratus which was to be placed in the
three state prisons to execute murder
ers would destroy life instantaneously.
II Gen. Lathrop would guarantee that
his (the writer's) family should be
paid 5000 in case OF his death he
would submit himself to a trial with
the electrical machine. A test could
be made upon him. II the machine
killed him the 5000 should be paid to
his family. In case Gen. Lathrop
should look favorably upon this offer
he would request him to insert per.
sonal addressed to A. F." in the
Philadelphia Ledger stating the fact,
when "a. F." would go to Auburn
prison, where the first electrical exc
cution apparatus is to be used, and the
trial could be made upon him. 1t is
needless to say that Gen. Lathrop has
not accepted this offer.

ALiehtninz-Proot Pig.

Lightning nearly broke up house,
keeping for Josiah Buell. in the sky
ward-tilted old town OF Hebron, Conn.,.
a few days ago. A risky bolt climbed
into his home through his chamber
window. skipped down the back stairs
with an ease born apparently Of
familiarity with the premises. tore of
four slabs OF plaster from the kitchen
wall, lifted door of its hinges and
laid it carefully on the floor, removed
six covers from the range, opened. the
pantry-door and set the picplates whirl-
ing, and then whisked out to the pig
pen. There were four persons in the
house, and not one suspected that cleo
tricity had dropped in for social call
until Josiah visited the kitchen. A
few minutes later he went to the pig
pen. His 300-pound Chester county
pig lay on its back, its legs uplifted and
quiyering; but the pig, like the New
York car-driver, was not to be knocked
out by 1000 volts OF crude lightning.
and soon it got up and gazed at Josiah
reproachfully. The bolt that the pig
had successfully withstood knocked she
pig-pen into splinters. Mr. Buell. has
very little confidence in electricity as
an agent Of capital punishment

A Romance of Courage.

A few miles distant from the old
college town of Hanover. N. H., there
is farmhouse that was once the
scene Of midnight fracas. in which q
pretty girl was the heroine. aud set
OF Dartmouth college boys a most
amazed crowd. As 1t happens, the
girl is now married to the ringleader
in that escapade and they live very
happily in great city near the Attain
tic coast, so the young woman must be
called Jennie Smith merely to indicate
that that was not her name.
1t was in the autumn of 188-that
the Dartmouth college sophomores,
having got over being freshmen, de-
cided that the new freshmen were ris-
ing above their places in way that
was intolerable. and that a concreted
system OF hazing must be inaugurated
to even up things. One OF their chiel
objects of sophomore wrath was Gil
bert Smith, a big, good-natured fellow,
who cilmly refused to recognize in a
sophomore ;nything superhuman.
This Smith lived in the large farm
house on the road to Lyme. A few
of the more daring sophs got together
and voted to raid the farmhouse and
instruct Smith q little.
It was black, chilly night when
The band OF regulators crept up the
Lyme road toward the Smith farm

How Rockets are Made.

Rockets are made for three pur-
poses; for signalling; for decorations
or celebrations, or as projectiles in
in war. For signals. the charge con-
sists of - parts OF inter, OF sulphur,
and 8 OF charcoal. The ornamental,
or decorative, rocket is the one we
see used on the Fourth of July, and
the composition of which it is made
comprises 122 parts of mealed or
finely pulverised powder, 80 Of inter,
10 OF sulphur. and 80 OF cast-iron
filings.
The main part OF the rocket is a
case, made by rolling stout paper,
covered on one side with paste. around
wooden form, at the same time APP
plying considerable pressure. The
end is. then "choked," or brought
tightly together, with twine.
The paper case thus made is next
placed in a copper mold, so that a
conical copper spindle will pass up
through the choke, and the composition
is then poured In and packed by blows
OF mallet on a copper drift or pack
ing-tool made 70 fit over the spindle.
The top of the case is now closed with
layer of moist plaster-of-paris
one inch thick, perforated with a
small hole for the passage of the fame
to the upper part, or ''pot" The pot
is formed OF another paper cylinder
slipped over and pasted to the top of
the case and surmounted by a paper
cone filed with tow. The ''decora-
tions' are placed in the pot and are
scattered through the air when the
flame, having passed through the
aperture OF the plaster, reac hes a
small charge OF mealed powder, placed
in the pot The stick is piece Of
pine wood, tapering. and about nine
times the length of the rocket. It Is
to guide the rocket in its fight. The
decorations in the pot may be ''stars,"
'serpents," ''marrons," ''gold-rain,"
and so on. '.Marrons" are small
paper shells filed with grained pow
der and pinned with quick-match.
Serpents" are small cases about
inches in diameter in which is a COM
position of 5 parts inter, 8 sulphur. 16
mealed powder, charcoal. This COM
position is driven in the case, the top
of which is closed by plaster-of-paris,
having a small aperture through
which passes piece of quick-match.

The Under Dog in the Fight.

Upon one of Boston's most fashiona-
bile boulevards serenely sits statue in
bronze of William Lloyd Garrison. He
is the same man whom q well-dressed
mob at one time pursued through the
streets of the city which his statue
now honors, and the authorities were
obliged to confine him in Jail to pro-
tect him from the fury OF the mobbers.
Giodarno Bruno, an Italian philoso-
pher and hereto, was burned at the
stake in 1000. After almost three hun
dred years his statue has just been I'M
yelled in Rome to the great acclama.
ton of the people. For successive
generations his name has been held in
infamy and has become favorite ap-
pellation to give to dogs. Bruno, like
many canine namesakes of his, was
the under dog in the fight. So was
Garrison, and so have been all the
martyrs. We may trust the sympathy
OF the people to inevitably go to the
bottom dog in the tussle, but some
times it takes three hundred years to
do So Though the mills OF Gods
grind slowly, yet they grind exceeding
small. Yankee Blade.

A Ancient Souvenir.

I saw a queer object in the window of
William street store last week. It was
barnacle-covered vase about two feet
high, and though of an antique and
ancient pattern, would not of itself at
tract more than passing glance. Upon
two cards, which were placed near it,
the history was told in English and
Greek. The vase had been found ut the
bottom of the straits Of Salimis, where
the naval battle was fought between
Themistocles, admiral of Greece, and
Xerxes, king of Persia, 400 years before
Christ. The poor sponge diver who
found the relic received slight reward
for his trouble, and the vase was shipped
to New York. Who knows but that it
may be a Renaissance of the great
battle. New York Graphic.

Travellers.
The charge for bed In the sleep
ing-cars from Basic to Calais, says the
London Standard, Is about 10 francs,
and from Basic to Paris, for some oc-
cult reason, francs more. BY one OF
those extraordinary arrangements that
can exist only in countries where no.
body trusts anybody, and everybody is
suspected by everybody else. even the
unfortunate traveller who has hired a
bed at 9:15 is not allowed to turn into
il till 11:30, the reason assigned being
that at the French frontier the ''small
baggage" must be examined, and ii
people were allowed TO ''turn in" be-
fore the examination took place there
Is no saying what amount OF tobacco
and laces and the rest OF it might not
be secreted in or under the bed by the
tourist or by the servants OF the sleep
car company. When, however, the
conventional ceremonial OF affirming
that you have nothing to declare
has been gone through and your dress
ing bag has been defaced by hieroglyph-
les in white chalk, then the operation
of bed-making in the wagon-lits COM

As a rule these vacant compartments
are to be had by tipping the dirty Of

haps, for % shillings apiece two people
can secure the mitigation of misery we

inducements to many people to
have recourse to wagon-lit is
the belief that at any rate in the
morning they will be able to have "a
good wash" and will thus emerge from

being instead of an unwashed, I'M

throws fuller light on this pleasing
anticipation. As some of our CORE
spondents point out the ''lavatory"
arrangements in the sleeping cars be-
tween Basic and Calais and between
Basic and Paris are abominable beyond
description, and can not be turned to
the slightest account by any one OF
the most ordinary fastidiousness.
