The New Way Of Doing it.

In the near future the magic lantern
will be widely used in schools to illus
trate geography, history, literature, ply
siology, botany, zoology, geology, astron-
omy and like subjects. Heretofore this
matter has not been prominently brought
before teachers, and the prices charged
for the outfits have been far beyond the
means of the average country school dis
trict. Recent Improvements have SO
cheapened and simplified lantern appa-
ratus that complete outfit may now be
purchased at n very reasonable figure and
operated without any previous expert
ence. Children delight in pictures and
remember what they are told in connec-
ton with them. America is behind
Europe in this matter, magic lantern
having been used in English Board
Schools for some time.-Denrer Library

Down in Kansas few days ago dis
reputable man died at Emporia. A cler-
gyman SAID he could say nothing about
the deceased, as he had not known him
when alive, but he would be glad to hear
from anyone in the congregation. There
was no response until finally one old gen
tleman who occupied back seat arose
and said: "If no one has anything to say
about the corpse, would like to make
few remarks on the sub-treasury. ."-Ea,.

woman Of much beauty and very excep-
tional ability. In America she had an
extraordinarily romantic careeE and the
fact that she finally married an Irish pa
triot and editor instead Of some man Of
high nobility is simply another Illustration
of her originality. Mrs O'Conner WAS
born in Texas. Her father was Judge Pas

mother was the daughter OF that wonder

young woman who flashed on the society

many of them are connected with various

posed to reach through the supplementary

Meanwhile, the responses to the call for
the second assessment on the subscription
to the capital stock, which is payable
this month, have been very generous,
checks for large amounts and small
amounts are received daily by mail, while
considerable cash is being daily handed
over the counter in Treasurer Seeberger's
Office. The contracts now being let will
cali for the expenditure of an immense
amount of money within the next four
months. Still no anxiety is expressed by
the responsible officials but that they will
have just as much as they need whenever
big draft is made on the exchequer, and
not only that, but something to spare.

In the History of Henuiker," New
Hampshire, it is related that Mr. Moses
Huse set off with friend on 4 bear hunt
one autumn morning to be gone for the
day. a little before shutdown Mrs. Huse
began her preparations for supper against
the time of the hunters return. In those
early days few houses had cellars under
meath; but potato hole was dug near the
dwelling and covered over during the win
ter with sods or thatch. In this hole the
seasons vegetables were stored.
Mrs. Hsse handed pan to her little
girl, and babe her go out to the cellar hole
and getsome vegetables. The child obeyed,
but soon ran in, saying that she had heard
a noise in the leaves and was afraid. Her
mother assured her there was nothing TO
be afraid of, and sent her back, but the lit
tie girl soon returned with the same story,
when the mother said impatiently, wall,
you stay here, an I'll go myself"
AS Mrs. Huse neared the potato hole she
heard the noise which had alarmed the
child Upon going nearer she espied bear
digging in the leaves for acorns.
She Immediately gave chase. picking up,
as she ran, huge pine knot, with a train
as long as yer arm" she said afterward,
ana came up with 6ruln Just as ne had
begun the ascent Of tree.
Mrs. Huse was of Indian descent: Of
wiry, powerful muscle. She had often
taken her end of the log in clearing the
land, and now, equal TO the emergency,
she dealt the bear heavy blow with the
knot, which broke his back and he fell 10
the ground She quickly dispatched him,
dragged him TO the house and dressed him
When Mr. Huse and his comrade re-
turned, the woman was cooking bear
steak for supper. They were much aston
ished, and asked where she obtained the
meat. She told them, and added, in her
quaint dialect, When he failed from the
tree, damned on, did; and killed him,
| cid, did!7
The energetic woman had beaten the
hunters, whose search for bears had been
fruitless and who had returned without
game Of any sort.
