THE ETERNAL WILL

There is no thing va cannot overcome.
Say not thy evil instinct is inherited,
Or that some trait Unborn makes thy whole
life forlorn.
And calls down punishment that is not
merited.
Back of thy par 'nts and grandparents lies
The great Eternal Will That. too, is thine
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., beautiful. divine;
Sure lever of success for one who tries.
Pry up thy fault with this great lever-Will.
However deeply bedded in propensity,
However firmly set, tell thee, tirmer yet
Is that vast power that comes from Truths
immensely.
Thou art part Of that strange world, say;
Its forces lie within thee, stronger far
Than all thy mortal sins and irailties are.
Believe thyself divine. and watch and pray.
There is no noble height thou can st not climb.
All triumphs may be thinei Time iuturity,
II, Whatsoever thy fault thou dost not faint
or halt,
But lean upon the staff of Gods security.
Earth has no claim the soul cannot contest
Know thysef part of the Supcrnal source,
And naught can stand before thy spirit s
force
The souls divine Inheritance is best.

The Prince and the Blind Man.

was recently told the following story
Of piece OF silycrware now existing in
the plate room at Marlborough House.
One day the Prince of Wales, on alight-
ing from his carriage at the door of
house where he was about to pay visit,
saw blind man and his dog vainly trying
70 effect passage across the thoroughfare
in the midst of throng of carriages.
With characteristic good nature the
Prince came to the rescue and successful
ly pilotcd the pair to the other side OF the
street. A short time asterward he re.
ccived a massive silver inkstaud with the
following inscription: "To the Prince of
Wales. From one who saw him conduct
a blind beggar across the street. In
memory of kind and Christian action
Neither note nor card accompanied the
Offering, and the name of the donor has
never been discovered. But Think that
this anonymous gift is not the least priced
of the many articles in the Princes
treasure-chamber. l can vouch for the
authenticity of this anecdote, as it came
to me direct from young English lady
who, by the kindness of member of the
Prince of Wales household, was shown
through Marlborough House during the
absence of its owners, and the inkstand
in question was pointed out to her by he,
conductor. Philadelphia TslaUulh.

MUTINY OF MADMEN.
Extraordinary Conduct Of Lunatics
in a French Asylum.

A mutiny of an extraordinary charac.
ter took place recently at the Bicetre
Lunatic Asylum, near Paris, France
which was only put down by the arrival
of the soldiery. Some of the dangerom
lunatics had appeared more excited than
usual owing to the sultry weather, and
ole of them, an athlete of great strength.
named Jolly succeeded in breaking out
of his cell Having opened the cells Of
fourteen of his companions. all of them
made rush at the Keepers, who were
walking up and down on guard. The
lunatics then laid siege to the nearest
rooms. and broke windows, chairs. tables
and everything else on which they could
lay their hands. Afterward they went
up to the keepers sleeping places, and,
Selling all the raZOrs, hammers and other
dangerous instruments which they could
find. redescended into the quadrangle
and began shouting out that they in
tended to kill everybody who should in
terfere with them. One of the keepers
a NJ. Petit-received blow from the leg
of table which broke his arm, but his
colleagues succeeded eventually, at the
risk of their lives, in cutting off the re-
treat of the madmen by shutting them
up in the quadrangle. The COVER
nor, NJ. Pinon, now interviewed, and
tried by soft words to calm the
rioters; but he was threatened by
Jolly, who said that he would
spare his life if he went down on his
knees and begged pardon of all the in
mates. AS NJ. Pinon refused to do this
Jolly hurled a flower-pot full of earth at
him, but a keeper threw himself before
the governor and received the pot and its
contents on his chest The governor and
his men then withdrew and sent for the
police and troops. The inspector Of
police who arrived first found the mad
men straddling across a wall, where they
were brandishing their razors. and sub
jccting part of the asylum to lombard
ment of rubbish, stones and bricks Jolly,
when called upon to surrender, cried out:
''We are outside the law: we arc mad
men, and you can't do anything" When
twcnty-four soldiers with fixed bayonets
arrived from the Bicctre fort the lunatics
became more exaspera' cd. whereupon the
keepers turned on the hose and gave the
maniacs a few shower baths. This was
followed 10y vOlley of blank cartridges,
which cffectually frightened them. They
descended from their wall and allowed
thcmselves;o be handculTed After that
the most, obstreperOus were put in strait
waistcoats.S -Four of The keepers were
placed hors de co8lbdt during the riot,
while Il sum of 800 in banknotes, be-
longing to one of the asylum attendants,
was destroyed by the lunatics.- = London

Greyhounds for Canadian Wolves.

1t is officially estimated that no fewer
than 40 coo wolves are rOamingat large
in Russia. add that the inhabitants OF the
Nologla last year killed no fewer than
80. 600. and OF the Casan district 81, 600.
In the Canadian Northwest there are also
wolves, but these are not. like the Euro
pean ones, Of u very dangerous character.
The coyotes are. however, at times very
troublesome on the plains. especially to
tlocks of sheep. Some time ago Sir John
Lister-Kaye imported a number Of
Belgian and French wolfhounds and
Scotch deerhounds for the purpose of
hunting down these coyotes, while other
breeds of dogs have also been tried with
fair success. By means of these the
number of coyotes has been much reduced,
as many as seventeen having been brought
down in a single day on the Cochrane
ranch. The hounds are. however, scarce
ly fast enough, and with view to giving
them a greater turn of speed, Mr.. Dan
Gordon, the veterinary surgeon of Otta-
wa, Canada, has just imported two of the
fastest and best bred greyhounds ever
shipped from ngland-namely, Justin
ian, by Cui Bono, out of Stylish Lady,
and Jetsam, by Royal Stag, out OF Casta-
way London Times.

Paynizing Wood.

Paynizing, process representing and
hardening wood, was invented by Mr..
Payne, and consists in placing we'll
seasoned timber in an alright chamber,
and when, by means of powerful air
pump, the wood is deprived of its air, .
solution of sulphuret of calcium or OF
sulphurct of barium is admitted, and
readily fills up the spaces in the wood.
The surperfuous moisture is withdrawn
by means of the air-pump, and a solution
of sulphate of iron is injected. This acts
chemically upon the sulphuret of barium.
or of calcium, and forms all through the
wood an insoluble sulphatc of barium
(heavy SPAR or of calcium GYPSUM. In
this way the wood is made very heavy,
very durable. and almost incombustlble.

An effort is being made in Great
Britain to repeal the ancient law ac-
cording to which jurymen are denied
refreshment when they are considering
their verdicts. The London Lancet
which is the principal organ of the En-
glish medical profession, calls for some
relaxation of what it designates as "the
antique rigidity of the law" on the SUBJ
ject. 1t urges that most persons when
hungry become angry, and the irritated
mind is seldom just.

The fire which destroyed the Office of
the Minneapolis, Tribune and a number
OF Its employees, coming so soon on the
heels of similar disasters on a larger
scale as to property loss in Lynn and
Boston, has seriously impressed the
public mind with the necessity for
greater safeguards against the
flames. The Tribune building, it
seems, was provided with only one
fire-escape and one stairway, which was
narrow one, winding around that
deadly fire trap, the elevator. Ur-
gent needs of the times are a fire. proof
building which is proof against fire, and
a vigorous enforcement of laws which
require the furnishing of adequate
fixel appliances to enable people to es-
cape from burning buildings.

Evidences are not wanting of the
tenacity with which the French of
Canada still adhere to old France as the
parent country. and fresh proofs are
forthcoming every day. The Dominion
Government have just now been in
formed that if the French Canadian
grievances in the Canadian Northwest
are not adjusted, and if the
French language and separate schools
arc abolished, the former as
an official language. they will appeal
to France. who they are assured will see
that the treaty which ceded Canada to
Great 1ri:ain is not broken. The French
in Canada have become too powerful for
the Dominion British Government to
treat with indifference. They number
1000, 600 people. 40 per cent. of the
entire population, and the threat of APP
pealing to France Is not now made for
the first time. says the New York Sun.
1t has been used, and used successfully,
before as II weapon under the power of
which the Canadian Government relent-
ed. 1t forcibly serves to show what
must inevitably come, sooner or later
an open conflict between the two ma.
tional elements for supremacy.
