Judge Tenth Jud. Dist. of Iowi
A HIGHLY GRATIFYING DECISION.

The decision rendered in the court of
equity at Waterloo, Ia. in the case of B..
Corgrove vs.. The Life Indemnity and
Investment company is, we understand,
in every respect in the interest of the
company. LIST, it determines the validi-
ty Of the amendments made TO the ar
ticles Of interpretations; I'd, it settles
the question of the two fifths special as
sessmcnt which the company has for
several years been trying to adjust by
mutual consent of its members Sd, il
fixes the liability OF the company under
these old contracts to an equitable share
Of the surplus accumulated at the time
the company changed its plan OF busi-
ness.
1t may be added that the malicious
charge that the company had misappro-
priated $4,000 is entirely erroneous
and is in no way sustained by the eyi
dence. The company is to be congrat-
ulated on this happy solution of ques.
tion OF vital interest to all concerned

vvoeaen-Es Headed M.rsine,s.

A typical exhibition of court-martial ferocity occurred not long ago at Pictermaritzburg. wherever that may be. Two privates of an English regi- ment were at work on fatigue duty, loading the baggage of the regiment on wagons, from tho first thing m the morning till p. m. During the whole of that time they had no meals. On returning to camp they were ordered to assist in getting off the baggage of another regiment This they firmly, but politely. declined to do, giving as their reason that they had had no food all day. They were tried for insubor- dination before a district court-martiaL and sentenced to IF months imprison- ment
 should hope that on the nature of this case becoming known some stops will be taken to mitigate this out rageous sentence. writes a correspond ont of the London Truth. At any rate. some punishment on the same scale ought to be meted out to the wooden headed martinet who could strain dis cipline beyond all reason by suhHcting men to such intolerable hardship Is this the way that our military authori- ties think to popularize the service with the British democracye

LIBERTY VERSUS COMFORT.
How . Pct 0oldfinch Was Enticed Bacl
 into His Cage.

Our pet goldfinch. having escaped from his cage, flew into tall ailan- thus sree in the back yard. says tho American Agriculturist There he sat- singing his sweetest and rejoicing in his unexpected freedom. We brought out bls gilded cage and set it on tho top ot a tall step-ladder, leaving the door open and just inside 6 cup of tempting hempseed. For two hours he ssorned to look at 1t though he often fixed his bright little eyes on us when we called him. and answered us with cherry, defiant ..Witzah!n We had almost given up hope of ever get ting him back. when 1t occurred to us to riog his breakfast bell; in other words, to rattle up the hempseed in the tin box where it was kept This was . sound he understood. as we had long made it practice thus to an- nounce breakfast to his fnchship. Fortunately he had nothing to eat when he flew away. and the well- known sound suggested seed. water and lettuce to the little empty stomach. So he hopped down slowly from bough to bough until he was close to the cage. There he stood for some time. evident ly hesitating. until suddenly he fiutter- cd down into his home. having decided to abandon the delights of liberty foT the solid comforts of civilization.

THE SPECIALS MISTAKE.
A Story of the War Told by sa 0ll
 Union Soldier.

Union Soldier.
 "lt was SO hot that the heat seemed to raise up from the ground and tho sky was like Armament of molten brass, said an old soldier in Chicago recently. His two grisly comrades of the hour assumed attitudes of extreme attention.
 Each leaf was gray with dust, and the atmosphere was so quiet that there was not blade of the parched grass that had perceptible quiver. l was lying in an impoverished hos pital, having been brought in from the picket line. where had been hit in the foot by sharpshooter lodged in a tree within the enemy's lines.
 There was hard fighting between the two opposing armies, and the num- Der of wounded had so increased that the regular army surgeons were un- able to attend to all of their patients. As wounded man always needs prompt attention the Surgeon chiei secured a number of specials--young men sent down from Washington and Baltimore hospitals who were more ambitious than skilful.
 'They provided around me and ex. hibited great anxiety to cut my foot of, insisting that delay was putting my life in the balance. My reply was, the first man who approached me with knife would fall in his tracks. l had . six-ball barker under my pillow.
 Late ia the afternoon they brought in yousg lieutenant from the right. We could tell that there had been hard fighting in that quarter all day from the roar ot the artillery and the crack. crack, crack of the musketry. This young ufan was musular and as well formed ss one of the youths in 'Bou. gereau's First Grief His neck was as we'll turned as that of statue, and arms and hands, although strong, were as shapsiy as woman's.
 '.As : lay there almost unconscious from pain and sutfocating from the heat l heard the surgeon order one oi the specials to amputate the wounded eNs A' ~A saS tVNAh- iiGAtthdit stpoN V Nflt elbow. It was the left one. The sur. --on then mounted his horse and could hear the chatter of his animal $ hoois as he galloped down the hard cond.
 The brave young lieutenant was strapped down to the table and given an aslHsthetic preparatory to the oper- ation. Some time after that-I never could tell just how long it was--I was aroused by cry of. horror and the noise of some one making nasty exi, from the house over the bare floor. Through the window could see the special running with the fleetness of [ deer towards the river Upon reach. ing the water he plunged in. My thought was, I remember that the special was to be envied for his one de. licious moment even if he went to tho bottom. How hot it was
 But the special was not to be on. vied. He had cut of the wrong arm.

WE WATCHED HER BREATHING,

We watched her breathing through tho night . Her breathing soft and low Al in her breast tho wave of life Kept heaving to and fro. So silently we seemed to speak, So slowly moved about, As we had lent her half our powers To eke her living out. Our very hopes belied our fears, Our fears our hopes belicd;' We thought her dying when she slept; And sleeping when she died. For when the morn came dim and sad, And chill with early showers, Her quiet eyelids closed-she had Another morn than ours.

Mrs. Langtry's Plncu.hion.

One of the most marvellous pincush ions belongs to Mrs. Langtry. It is a silver framing that in years gone by, when Ireland claimed kings, held the wooden-bowl in which the steaminc hot potatoes were brought on the table to delight royalty. It was found tarnished and dark in an old shop in Dublin, bought for small sum, clean ed up, and now the centre is filled with fat, blue velvet cushion, in which are stuck pins, little and big, black and white, and of all sizes and sharpness.-The Ladies Home Jour. nal.
