In Zurich, Switzerland, one of the law
courts has closed novel case. A beggar who
opened the garden gate in front of a house
where he intended to ask for relief was at
tackled by the watchdog and bitten in the left
arm. Soon afterward he commenced a suit
against the owner of the place, calling for
heavy damages, on the ground that the wound
he had received rendered him permanently
unable to earn his living The defense was
that he could beg just as well as ever, and
that the injury in question, far from being a
disadvantage, only increased his chances in
his profession. But the court held that the
proprietor of a house is responsible for the
security of the people who come to visit him,
even when the object of the visit is to make
an appeal to his generosity. So the beggar
won his suit-Exchange.

Nnr School Girl.

The average school girl rises only in time
to eat hurried breakfast and reach school
at 0. The girls under IL, who are not the
ones that break down, are not too dignified
to romp at recess, and in that way they fill
their lungs with fresh air every day. Those
above ~ or IS rarely have breath Of out
side air from till 2 in the afternoon. They
eat their luncheoris curled up In heaps, In
comfortable corners, II they can find them.
They take little exercise, except In O few
schools, where they dance for few minutes.
A solitary lunch Of cold or warmed over"
food on reaching home is followed usually by
an hour or two Of study, instead Of by q
brisk walk or other exercise. There is more
study after supper, ambitious girls studying
late into the evening.
II there is any well established physiology
cal fact, it is that girls in their teens need an
abundance Of sleep, and sleep before mid
night, il possible. The teachers must give q
certain amount OF home work to their pupils
in order TO keep them up to the grade, more
is the pity; but since that is a necessity, the
fathers and mothers at home should make
everything else bend to that and health.
There is no one thing that Is 80 necessary and
that might be so easily secured, II fifmness were

growing brain and the girlish frames that are
rapidly assuming the proportions Of maturity.

Inventions by Massachusetts Women

Massachusetts has more inventive ladies
than any other part of New England. Helen
Mari, Of Boston, has invented patent dress
ing case and washstand combined. Mrs. Car
penter has metal halter for hitching horses
on the street, and Miss Mary Barber, another
Massachusetts, girl, has patent pie litter by
which you can take pie from the baking
pan without burning your fingers. One of
the best cutting machines for trimming the
leaves of books is the patent Of a Massa-
chusetts lady named Semple, and it is used
by the leading publishers Of the country.
Lots of money has been made in ironing
boards, and a Boston girl named Parker has
a kitchen table and ironing board combined
which can be folded up and packed away in
trunk. There are patent beds by Massa-
chusetts ladies, patent corsets, patent griddle
greasers and a hundred and one other new
ideas put into merchantable shape.-Wash-

A gentleman was sitting in his library in
the evening. His wife had gone up stairs.
Presently he, too rose and prepared to go
mp stairs. Passing through the parlor
(which, by the way, was not his ordinary
way of going up stairs) he went out of his
course little and paused to look at a small
table which stood in the corner; and upon
this table lay a tack hammer. Now it was
a very unobtrusive little tack hammer, and
this gentleman, who is not at all orderly in
his habits, would be the last person in the
world to go out of his way to notice tack
hammer. If it had been large lump of
coal, or quarter section of cheese, or n
strange cat on the parlor table, the chances
would have been quite against his taking
any notice of the object.
But he not only paused and observed this
tack hammer in a somewhat dazed and per-
picked way; he took it and started upstairs
with it, which was a perfectly extraordi
nary thing for him to do, because, even if
the hammer did not belong on this table, it
did not belong upstairs. He had not more
than half assembled the stairs when his wife
called from above;
"My dearl"
"Yes?"
ooh, you are coming. Twas going to ask
you, when you came, to step into the par
lor and get a tack hammer on the little Ia
BILE there. wanted to tack up picture"
The husband stood aghast, half way up
the stairs.
why" said he, 81 have got the hammer
already And why on earth eshould have
gone and got it haven't the least idea."-

A Mos,s WORK.
An Alleged Ravisher Riddied with Bul-
lets in His Cell.

lets IN his AeLts
COLUMBIA, s. c., May AT 2 o'clock
Monday morning Willie Leaphart, col
ored, IS years old, under sentence Of
death for committing criminal assault
On white girl, was murdered in the
Lexington Jail, twelve miles from this
city. AT that hour a party of fifty mon
dismounted from their horses at the
Jail door and soon knocked down the
door to the section Of the Jail occupied
by the sheriff. He was compelled to give
up the keys and the party entered.
An attempt was made to bring Leap
heart out and hang him, but he resisted
so successfully that this failed. He
seized club that was in the Jail and
knocked down several of the foremost
men, whereupon the lynchers opened
fire and riddled him with bullets. In
the morning the streets were placarded,
charging the governor and the Judge
with responsibility for the murder.
1t Is understood that the governor has
important information in his possession
showing that Leapheart was innocent of
the crime charged, but was prosecuted
to conceal the crime of others and made
the victim of a horrible conspiracy.
Governor Richardson has Just been
notified that John T. Graham, the at
~toney for the lynched negro Leaphart,
had fled from Lexington from a mob
that threatened his life and that there
were about fifty drunken men in the
town, some of whom were surrounding
the house of Graham, where his wife
and children were. The temper of the
mob indicated that if they attacked the
house they would have no sympathy for
neither sex nor age, and the governor
was requested to send protection for
those people. The governor Immediate
ly telegraphed to the sheriff to guard
Graham's house, and protect the in
mates with posse, and that the sheriff
would be held responsible for the safety
OF Mrs. Graham and her children 1t is
said that Lawyer Graham left Licking
ton for Columbia and as he has not ar
rived here, some apprehension is felt for
his safety.

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT.
Interview with Several Judges on 1t
Abolition.

Interview with Several Judges on Its
Abolition.
New YORK, May 6.-The Herald has
interviewed several judges as to the adj
visibility of abolishing capital punish
ment. The general opinion of the bench
seems to be against the abolition.
Judge Barrett, of the supreme court,
says; Il have not the slightest doubt
that the abolition of capital punishment
would result in multiplying homicides
to degree that we have no conception
of at the present time"
Judge Cowing, of the general sessions
court, says: Capital punishment, be-
lieve, acts as great deterrent of muir
der; and if it is abolished homicides will
increase to a great extent"
Judge Daniels, of Buffalo, expresses
similar views, and cites the case of a
man who followed his victim through
several states and finally murdered him
in Wisconsin, where capital punishment
had just been abolished. He was SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment but the
people were so outraged by his insolent
ana audacious crime that they lynched
him.

Fred. w. Newburg, Again Gets Away
with Thousands of Dollars.

With Thousands of Dollars.
COLUMBUS, o., May 6.-Fred. w.
Newburg, who has just been deposed
from the secretaryship of the Columbus
base ball club, has again turned out q
rascal, and from the last accounts is q
defaulter to the sum of $1,000. New
burg is an expert bookkeeper, and in
1881 and 1882 was employed in the state
sinking fund commission Office. While
there he embezZled about $40, 900 of the
states money, and spehti it in fast living.
He was arrested, tried and convicted on
two counts for obtaining money under
false pretenses, getting three years on
each. While in prison he was made
boOkkeeper for the institution.
During Foraker's first term he was
paroled, and was then taken into the
firm of Lazarus & Company, large cloth
ing dealers of this city, in the capacity
of beokkeepe. OF late he has been car
rying matters with high hand, and the
firm placed a detective ON hls track.
For three weeks Newburg has been
Swallowed, and the most astonishing dis
closures made. A hurried examination
of the books was made and the shortage
will amount to- $1,000 or more. New
burg has fed, and supposed to have gone
to Chicago.
The owners of the Columbus base ball
club, who have been reticent about the
conduct of Fred B. Newburg, late sec
rotary and treasurer of the club, have
admitted that he was an embezzler of
the funds of the club to the amount of
Thousands of dollars. His stealings
have been covered by a shrewd system
of false entries.

Pastor Stocker, of anti-Semitic renown,
relates that Bismarck once asked him
whether there were any text in the Bible
saying, "All men are towards" ''No, you
are thinking of the text, The Cretans are
all liars" said Stoeker. "Liars-cowards,
it comes to much the same thing" an
swered Bismarck; ''but it's not true only
of the Cretans;" and he then asked Stocker
whether the latter had met many thorough
ly brave men. The court pastor replied
that there nigh; be several definitions of
courage; but Bismarck interrupted him
with boisterous laugh: "Oh, yes, the
moral courage of letting one's face be
smacked rather than fight duel; l have
met plenty of men who had that. San
