Fatal Fight of Church Factions.

VIENNA, November ls.-A fight oc-
Cured on Sunday at Bistrix, Transyl-
vania, between the opposing members
of one of the churches there. The
trouble originated in the opposition of
the Saxon members of the church to
the newly appointed Roumanian pastor.
On Sunday when the new minister at
tempted to enter the church he was
prevented from doing so by the Saxons.
The supporters of the pastor came to
his aid and tried to force their way
into the church and desperate conflict
ensued. When the battle was ended it
was found that six persons had been
killed and sixteen wounded.

London Spectator -.
Within the last month have made an
interesting experiment with a fowl. Some
choice eggs being sent me for hatchina
purpossB (having no hen at that time
broody and no inoubator) l determined
to set one OF my hens on these eggs and
keep her there by the force OF mesmerie
power The eggs were not fresh when 1
received them, and to keep them with the
uncertain hope Of hen beoominy
broody might have been fatal 70 their
Matching. therefore went against
nature and sst my hen upon these eggs;
she was in full lay az the TINA and re-.
msined so throughout the three weeks
that she was sitting, laying, according to
wont, two out of three DAYS, Those
who understand poultry will appreciate
that no hen will do this, having become
naturally broody, although for the first
day or two after being set on eggs have
had hens lay once or even twice.
Marking the eggs set her upon l was
abs to know and withdraw the ones abe
kept laying. The first day placed her
on the eggs it took me half an hour to
bring her into hypnotic condition; but
each successive day, after having aroused
her to drink and eat was able to soothe
her to drowsy plscidity in much less
time; also there were days, for which l
can give no reason, when had to 90 to
her more than once in the day, abe being
In restless, excited state, trying to ast
on the nest. The result has been, much
to my own establishment, that four out of
seven of these eggs have Matched and
are healthy, happy little chickens AL
mig can still influence their mother to
their maternal duties, but in the daytime
she takes no notice of them.
