The Ganaelle.

There is a kind of tin mug called the
panelle, in which the French soldier re-
eeives his r~ations, and which ne carries
on his knapsack. The form is a little
peculiar, so as to distinguish it from
other ordinary tin mugs. A simple inn.
plement which, carried on the backs Of
French soldiers, has marched SO often to
victory, and of late to defeat, has at last
received its reward in its gloriication.
When the young Duke of Orleans came
before the court, aud exclaimed: II ask
fox nothing but q gamelle," meaning
nothing but the treatment of q common
soldier, the public readily seized upon
the emblem. Scarcely three days had
elapsed before a great jeweler of the Rue
de ia Paix had hundreds Of s'tin mugs"
in silver, gold and jewels, as pins n
badges, which sold Immediately as the
sstin mug" Of Orleans" and were worn
all over Paris. A popular florist de-
signed a vase in the shape OF the sstin
mug" and presented the first specimen to
the Prince, who sentit to his bride, Mar
earet de Chartres, filed with roses and
lilies of the valley. A restaurateur orig
mated a gamelle as a soup dish, and sent
it to the noble prisoner full of bouillon.
But this was not permitted within the
prison. In the meanwhile, ell Paris is
sporting the soldiers tin mug in the tri-
color, and the young Duke has left q
fashionable ornament to remember him
blythe Ledger.

the warriors singing as they go. Nearer
and nearer they come until they are a.
most within arms length of the victim.
Then they raise their clubs, and, no
longer t~rotting but running at full speed,
strike him as they run, each blow being
accompanied by a savage shout; it needs
but q few minutes to beat the wretch to
the ground; but they do not leave him
until the life has departed and the body
is a mere shapeless mass.
10 Spain and its colonies the garrotte

The condemned mar sits on a seat re-
sembling a cobbler's stool, with his back
against an upright post. His feet are

each of which a steel bar is inserted.
These, with a cross piece in front, form

/ Philadelphia letter says: IN

A Philadelphia letter says: sNearly
300 people mysteriously disappeared from
the city Of Philadelphia during the year
ending with the opening Of the present
month. This is q remarkable exhibit,
and one which reminds the writer Of an
article which appeared in . French scien-
tito journal two Or three years ago,
wherein the author advances the theory
that death il occasionally actual dissolu-
ton. IL IS 4 disease, the writer referred
TO, maintained, but n from which there
Is 40 suffering; there i no illness or
warning of approaching end; the patient
suddsnly ceases to exist and as suddenly
fades from sight. He says he has actually
Witnessed this phenomenon and that he
was 81 one time walking with i friend
who suddenly vanished and has never
reappeared. With such conclusive tssti-
mon he has little doubt that many per-
aons searched for have actually melted
into thin air. he further states tIlak At
the moment his friend disappeared, 4
strong sulphurous odor pervaded The IL

.eThe utilization Of convict labor il

seThe utilization of convict labor in
road making y observes the Boston Cult
oator, ssmay be the best possible solution
of a difficulty that confronts the people
of most States. The organized labor
unions will not allow ~convicts to work
81 any trade where they could possibly
compete with themselves. But repairing
highways is an occupation that nobody
has as yet preempted for his OWE ezclu-
Give employment. In contact with soil
and stone the convict would get some
touch of nature, and might even look up
1T the sky and determine to forsake his
evil ways. Good roadsar + an important
accessory to civilization, but since the
general reliance on railroads the keeping
Of our common roads in the best repair
has received less attention than formerly.
a. chance should be given the convict to
be OF some use in the world, Or rather,
this should be required of him. In nc
way, perhaps, can this better be done
than by obliging him to do honest WORK
in repairing the public highways"
