Cupping Il Prisoner.

A curious phase of prison life is exhibit
ed bv "Medicai Correspondent" of q
Moscow paper. 1t often happens that
a respectable man is confined in prison
for few days for some slight ottense,
At times even an elder of a small com
munitv must submit to such a penalty
for what the Russian law calls a neg
lect Of duty. Such a person is retained
in a large room together with lot OF
obdurate criminals, who are either
awaiting trial or sentenced to be put at
hard labor in fortress. When the
respectable prisoner comes among them
they begin to press him for "a treat OF
good-fellowship He must send for
bottle of brandy. If he is not as liberal
as they want him to be they harass and
torment him. Should he make threat
to complain before the authorities OF
their conduct they Immediately decide
upon performing on him the operation
ofcupping," as they call it.. The poor
fellow is then stripped naked, stretched
on bench and held fast. His mouth is
stuffed with a rag so that his cries
cannot be heard outside. A spot on
his breast is made wet, and one of his
tormentors rubs it with his unshaven
chin until the skin become red.
Hereupon another one slaps the spot
with his flat hand with all his might. A
large blister Immediately, appears on
the wounded place. This is what
thew call setting cup. SIX or
eioht such E'cups'' are sometimes set on
the breast. the sides and the back OF
the sufferer, so that he is unable to lie
down for several days. In some
instances more serious injuries are
coused bv the blows he receives.

Never Neglect a Cold.

Dr. Austin Flint says in the Forum: g 1t
is probable that q person with an inherited
tendency to consumption would never de-
velop the disease if he could be protected
against infection with the tnbercIe bdciI-
las. In the light of modern discoveries
consumption can no longer be regarded as
an incurable disease 1t is no eXaggera-
ton to say that Kemp,s Balsam, when

boys like to get him wound up on them
just to hear the chair legs creak and move
in their sockets when his fat sides begin to
shake with laughter. One of the most
thrilling of these stories is regarding
personal exploit.
During fierce engagement big shell
landed near where crowd was standing
close to a deep ravine. None saw it but
himself, and on the impulse of the moment
he grabbed and hurled it down the bank.
No sooner did it strike the ground than it
burst and the fragments scattered in all
directions, narrowly preventing great exc
cution. Upon being commended for the
gallant act ''Ras" turned around and re-
piled, "By gracious, if / had known she
was SO hot 1 wouldn't have grabbed her."
Another veteran of the war has grown
in bulk of late. True, he possesses a frame
capable of taking on much adipose, for he
is feet inches tall. His name is Abra-
ham Coburn, and he was right file of Com
cany c, Ninety-seventh regiment Pennsyl-
vania volunteers. Joseph Abel, who meas
ures feet 2 inches, was left file. These
two men fought in twenty-five battles, and
neither got scratch.
Recently their old captain brought the
'long and short of it'' together and had
their photograph taken. The right file
was found to be 16 inches taller and It's
pounds heavier than the left file Coburn
is a railway engineer in Pennsylvania, and
Abel is a resident of St. Louis.

marry her, then married another woman,
and has got up the criminal charge against
her merely to discredit her suit for breach
of promise.
1t is queer case and the force of social
pressure in Ellenville and vicinity may be
gauged by the fact, that though the double
ended scandal has been public property
for months, neither of the local papers al
luded to it, even in the heat of the cam
paign, until it came regularly before the
court. The Hon. Isaac N. Cox, when he was
plain Mr.. Cox in 1873, paid his addresses to
Mrs. Sarah Melville, widow employed in
the Terwilliger house. According to her
testimony and that of her friends, he was
very devoted, promised marriage and to
various tender missives signed himself
"Your key" Much to the peoples sur
l,rise on Jan. 5, 1888, he married Miss Liz
zie Stoddard, of Mountaindale, Sullivan

series of accidents-one lawyer died, an
other ran off and two others declined to

and Mrs. Cox, their house and grounds
had been defled as aforesaid There were
twenty-six distinct outrages, and so many
lady callers had their dresses injured that
the secret could not be kept, though they,
strangely enough, took no legal action.
At length they employed one James
Thorpe to watch, and one fine evening last
October he grabbed Mrs. Melville in front
of the gate. There was great cutlery and
struggle, an appeal to the neighbors and
then Thorpe was arrested for assault. He
swore that he caught Mrs. Melville in the
act of dashing lnseed oil on the gate, and
Mrs Cox swore that from the window she
saw a woman throw something; that she
rushed out and found Mrs Melville strug-
Cling in the grasp of Thorpe. Mrs Mel
vile proved that she was going on per-
fectly legitimate errand, and that her
dress and hands were free from any sign
of oil. 1t also turned out that Thorpe
was a doubtful character, so it is the oath
of one woman against another-the sue
cessfully married against the Tilted one.
All Ellenville is nightly excited, and the

One of these days there will be no sun,
no moon and no stars. That, at least, is
the assertion of scientist who declares
that a time will come in the distant ages
when the spots that are already darkening
the sun will cover it's entire surface. A
solid crust will afterward form, as one has
formed upon the earth, which also traversed
these phases of the life of star, for our
earth was sun that had the moon for a
planet, and perhaps even according to Mr..
Stanislas Mennier) second satellite that
is now broken up. Thesun will, therefore,
BIZ extinguished some day for want of fuel,
but that fatal day will be far in the distant
future, for we can estimate the time neces-
sary for the extinction of the sun at more
than twenty millions of years, and the
time during which q state of life analogous
to the present one will be able to exist
upon the earth may be estimated at half
that long period.
