The Rev Sam Small is not making

victor Noir,s Monument.

A realistic monument to Victor Noir,
who was killed in 1870 by Prince Pierre
Bonaparte, has just been completed by
the sculptor Dalou for a committee,
which intends to erect it in some part of
Paris. Victor Noir was a young work
man employed as a reporter on a news
paper called The Marseillaise, then edited
by M. Henri Rochefort Prince Pierre
Bonaparte challenged NJ. Rochefort for
having lampooned him, while, on the
other hand, M. Pascal Grousset, alias
Daryl, challenged the prince for having
written something to his dlscredit in a
Corsican paper. Victor Noir and NJ. de
Fonvielle were sent to the prince by M.
Grousset as the latter's seconds, and dur
ing the interview Noir was shot by
Prince Pierre. The sculptor represents
Noir dressed in his best clothes and fall
ing dead on the pavement after he rushed
out of the house of Prince Pierre at
Auteuil. Paris Cor. London Daily Tele-

A case IA the Berlin police court reports
is a remarkable instance of the contagion
of example. The stories of brigands which
have lately filled the German newspapers
seem to have acted on the imagination Of
two boys named Oscar Scheffner and
George May. They determined to become
bandits, and they prevailed on several of
their school fellows to join them The
average age of the band was thirteen
They inaugurated their defiance of the law
by boldly playing truant, and then they
took refuge ia che wilds of the Grunewald,
where, in true brigand fashion, they hid
themselves
After a night passed in this fashion they
felt the pangs of hunger, and consequently
they sailed forth at an early hour and
seized the milk cans and baskets of new
rolls which had been left at the doors Of
the neighborng villas. This, however,
they thought was scarcely heroic, and their
next step was To garrote an old gentleman
who was taking morning stroll in the
park. Somehow the Berlin police got
wind Of the affair, and the juvenile bandits
were seized. They are now languishing in
grewsome dungeons, where, by means of a
cane administered at intervals, il is hoped
that they may he made aware Of the his
toric fact that ia northern Europe brigaud-
age is an anachrOnism.

Very few realize the extent of the
postal business of the United States.
The annual sale of stamps reaches nearly
1900, 100000, and Of postal cards 1885,
100000 The postmaster general, in his
annual report, comedies that one cent
postage must come, but says it would be
inopportune to attempt it at present, as
it Would reduce the annual revenue from
letter postage by probably $4,000, 600.
He advises that the postof1ice depart
ment first be put on a self sustaining
basis by accelerating and extending its
facilities in all directions, so as to in
crease its revenue. The nearest approach
to one cent postage will be in the shape
of a larger postal card, to be called let
ter postal card, with abundant room
upon it to write an ordinary letter.

Big Partridge Story.

A western journal relates the following;
A few mornings ago Thomas Trees went
down the creek from his fathers house to
examine some traps he had set. While in
speeding the traps he heard his dog max
ing an unusual noise some distance below
him. On going TO the dog he found him
lying on the ground and partridges stick
ing out all around his body. The dog had
found flock, and alighting in the midst
had pinioned ten, but when he rose up
eight Of them escaped, he still holding two
with his paws Thomas secured the two
partridges-the others all escaping. This
is an extraordinary feat for dog, and only
needed word from the young man to have
secured the whole of the birds originally

Opinions are much divided as to the
efficacy Of spanking" so called. There
are mothers who pride themselves on
"never laying hand" upon their children,
and the fiat has gone forth among educat-
ors that the teacher unable to manage her
class without resort TO corporal punish
ment does not deserve to be a teacher.
Wen, all can think as they please of
course, but there are certainly times with
children and moods in children which call
for a genuine old fashioned spanking as a
means of grace AS not a few mothers

SEAL FlNlsHERs.

Hands Must BE Exceedingly Slxillful to
Sew the Costly Sacques of Fur.
In the summer and autumn there is
plenty of work for seal fnishers or girls
who know how to sew sealskins and other
furs. The employment of girls in this sort
of work is comparatively recent A few
years ago the cutting and sewing of fur
skins were mainly done by men. Some
times a man would teach his wife or his
daughter, but the men monopolized the
best work and earned good wages. There
is skin cutter now working rs a Journey
man In this city who is said to be worth
$50, 000 and yet works his regular hours.
He has introduced several generations of
his family into one or another branch of
the business.
OF late years the sharp competition
which has got into the fur business as
well as other lines of trade has led to in
creased employment of females as sewers.
The work is nice, and requires good deal
of skill. The smooth, even color of lady's
new sealskin sacque is not produced with
out a good deal Of patient skill and deX-
terity. Of course skins do not come per-
feet. There are slight blemishes that need
to be corrected. The skillful cutter takes
a skin and blows the hair aside until he
can see the roots all over the skin. If he
finds spot that is bare of hair he must
select piece of skin to fit it, and the hair
must be exactly of the right length to fit
On "A seal the hair near the tail is shorter
than the hair near the head OF course a
piece of fur from near the tail will not fit
in a bare spot near the head of a skin. The
cutter has a peculiar method of shaping
the pieces to be set in, and this must be
understood by the girls who do the sew
ing, so that a girl who has worked at the
business becomes an expert, and girl who
has not served an apprenticeship at sewing
furs is Of little use in the shop.
It is not an unusual thing for one large
establishment to have fifty or sixty girls
sewing furs in the busy season in summer.
The most expert girls readily get employ
ment the year round, while those who are
less expert are the first to be discarded, and
go from shop to shop. The wages earned
is somewhat higher than the prices paid
for ordinary sewing, as the business is
somewhat unhealthy and requires consid-
cradle skill The girls earn from 50 a week
upward frequently when fur houses ad-
vertise for help girls apply who are totally
ignorant of the business, and pretend that
they know how, but they are soon found
out and discharged York Sun.

The Melbourne Argus prints the fol-
lowing, under date Sydney, Oct. 10:
Thomas Punch, Fred Riley and Ed
munds were indulging in their usual
pull in their club skif in the harbor this
morning. As they were passing between
Bradley's Head and Clark Island, the
scene of the late fatal boat accident, they
were Mortified to see a shoal of sharks
tossing about a human body. They
pulled nearer the spot, and then discov-
cred the body to be that of female COM
pletely dressed and swollen to al enor-
nous size by long immersion in the
water. The party endeavored to make
fast the body to the boat, but the sharks,
surrounding it, passed under the frail
boat SO viciously that the occupants be-
came alarmed and pulled away to give
notice to the police Mr.. Tooth's small
steam yacht was within hail and quickly
reached the spot; but the sharks were so
fierce that they tossed the body quite out
out of the water, and so terrified the
men on the yacht that they were obliged
to wait till the water police arrived be-
fore they could secure the body. Then
a horrible sight was witnessed. AS the
remains were being lifted into the boat
the sharks fiercely attacked them and
tore away nearly all the left side. The
remains were eventually removed to the
Circular Quay morgue.
