Tears and Smiles.

The habeas corpus proceedings instituted
by Mrs. johanna Brown for the purpose of
securing possession OF her little boy who was
in the hands of Mrs. Mary Eckes, was settled
yesterday in the court house and out
of court. The parties to the case met
in the corridor of the old building,
the young one yelled, the litigants kissed and
made il up. and the infant was turned over
TO its mother, the whole outfit departing from
the halls of justice satisfied that they had
been amply indicated. Mrs. Johanna
Brown is the mother, who had Instituted the
proceedings, and Mrs. Mary Eckes had the
young one at their home. There was some
claim that Brown had ill-treated the chill

How Various Nations Sleep.

Boston Budget.
In the tropics men sleep in hammocks
or upon mats of grass. The East In
dian unrolls his light, portable charpoy
or mattress, which in the morning is
again rolled together and carried away
The Japanese lie upon mating with a
stiff. Uncomfortable neck rest. The
Chinese use low bedsteads, often elab7
orately carved and supporting only
mats or coverllds. A PECULIARLY of the,
German bed is its shortness; besides
that it frequently consist in a part of a
large down pillow or upper mattress,
which spreads over the person, and
usually answers the purpose of all the
other ordinary bedclothing combined,
In England the old tour-posted bedstead
is still the pride of the nation, but the
iron OF brass bedstead is fast becoming
universal. The English beds are the
largest beds in the world. The ancient
Greeks and Romans had their beds sup
ported Oh frames, but not fiat like ours.
The Egyptians had couch of a pecu-
liar shape, more like an old-fashioned
easy chair with hollow back and seat.

the end of it all The boat was then run
to the Canada shore, abandoned and de-
stroyed.
The scene now changes to Union soil.
On the night of the 18th Of December, 1864,
the engineer on an eastern bound express
train on the Erie railroad between BUffal 10
and Dunkirk saw a railroad rail across the
track, in front Of his engine, and he'd time
to reverse and strike the obstruction at re-
duced speed and without severe damage.
The next night two policemen at the New
York Central depot, Niagara City, arrested
two suspicious men who were about to
take the cars for Canada Beall was one
of them, and though he made some at
tempt to deny his identity he was sent to
New York city and accused of the lake
raid and of the attempt at train wrecking.
Ashley, the clerk Of the Philo Parsons, and
one of the passengers named Weston, and
also confederate in the attempt on the
train, identified him and furnished ample
evidence for case.
The train wreCking enterprise was
doubtless a last resort by Beall to secure
funds for the prosecution Of his plans on
the lake. Five men were engaged in it
Col. Martin and Lieut.. Headley of Nor
gan's command; BeaII, lad named George
S. Anderson, who had seen service in the
Confederate army and was a refugee III
Canada, and another, unknown. Ander-
son was volunteer train raider and stated
in his testimony that the four-Martin,
Headley, Beall and himself-rendezvous
at Buffalo some days previous to the at
tempt of Dec. Is. Martin was the chief,
and on the night OF the 18th the rail
was placed before the train by the en-
tire party. The explanations made
to Anderson, who seems to have been
looked upon by the others as an limo
cent, enthusiastic helper, was that the
express car was to be robbed of a large
amount Of money The party lay hidden
near the track when the train strArk, and
seeing that the damage was only trifing
they FASTENED to Buffalo and secreted
themselves. Subsequently it was arranged
to cross Suspension bridge on foot and
reach Canada soil and there await train
on the Great Western road for Toronto.
Martin, Headley and the unknown set
out alone, but Reall, who was with them
at the time, remained behind to hunt up
young Anderson. who had somehow strayed
from his com panions. While the two,
Beall having found the lad, were awaiting
the tram az Niagara City the arrest TOOK
place, purely on suspicion.
Anderson stestinony undoubtedly swore
away Beall's life. He was arraigned on
two charges, violation Of the laws Of war
and acting as a spy. Els defense was that
his acts had b7eu justifable acts Of war,
and, If confined TO his attempt on the gun
boat Michigan and the Johnson's Island
prison, the plea might have had weight.
But every circumstance likely 20 weigh in
his favor, his education, his noble bearing,
his manly conduct toward the captives on
the Philo Parsons and the Island Queen,
was lost sight OF in the appalling railroad
horror that had been planned with such
cool elaboration and with no'pUrpose evi-
dent other than ro5bery-rosOery ct the
sacrifice Of scores and hundreds CT innocent
lives. GEORGE L. KuAKl.

Here's a Way to Have Sour Milk,

First, have a sour milk pitcher. Once
having spoonful therein, there need never
be lack. Add all your little odds of milk,
from teaspoonful to pint or more. II
the pantry is cool, put it on the shelf near
the cook stove, always keeping it covered
with a folded napkin or cloth. When the
milk becomes thick put it in a cooler place.
When the last is used add ltsle sweet
milk. l also add, from time TO time, the
-four scrapings from, the bread board, Stir
ring thoroughly. When necessary TO wash
the pitcher see TO It that there is enough
Of the milk left for seed Qike yeast. Save
in bowl When the pitcher is washed
and scalded it is ready for the seed and
more milk. I have never for many years
been without sour milk IN my pantry

non range. NOW OK sae s4Oro emu the
plot. Cole had agreed to invite the officers
II the Michigan to a late banquet IN San
duSky, to bride the engineer and have him
hold c3rouse with the crew on board;
also to have few daring leaders among
the Confederate prisoners on Johnson's
Island awaiting the attack on the Michi-
gan, ready to arouse the mass of their COM
rades and make an outbreak at given
signal, cannon shot by Beall through the
officers quarters on the island. A prelim-
mary to all of this was to be a rocket sig
nal sent up on shore by one of Coles aids,
as an announcement TO Beal that every
thing was ripe for the finishing blow. This
signal failed to appear The Confederate
leaders at the prison were alert, awaiting
Bealls announcement by a cannon shot
that he had successfully boarded the Mich
igan. Bean awaited Coles announce
ment that the Michigan's crew,
which outnunbered his force five to one,
had beec fixed and made comparatively
helpless for defense When the hour
passed and no signal appeared Beall began
to calculate his chances of success as things
stood. His vessel was run so close to the
gunboat that he could hear voices on board
of her. If the plot had been discovered he
might expect hostile demonstration from
the Michigan. AS the moments passed
and no movement was made on the gun
boat he decided to risk everything, board
her at all hazards and strike for Johnson's
Island at venture In this crisis an I'M
looked for event dashed his high resolves
suddenly TO the ground. The crew of the
Philo Parsons met his orders with mutt
nous protest against further proceeding.
The absence of the shore signals was inter
preted by them as a warning that the
plot had been discovered. A spokesman of
the party brought forward a protest writ
ten on the blank side of a bill of lading
found on the boat and signed by seventeen
out of eighteen of his men. 1t read:
OK BOARD THE PH1Lo PARSONS,

said, take pleasure in expressing our admiration

WINGED that the enemy is already apprised Of
our approach and is so we'll prepared that we
cannot by any possibility make it a success, and
having already captured two boats, We respect
fully decline to prosecute it any further.
Bean argued and pleaded with the men,
and in this was supported by Burley and
one other, but he was powerless to enforce
obedience. The crew insisted that the
death penalty awaited them if captured,
and they felt certain that such would lee
