CHAPTER XVII.

The court had finished its labors and
gone The correspondents had gone,
but presumably only to renewed labors
The various journals throughout the
northwest that had so confidently pre-
dictei the summary dismissal of the
offending lieutenant were now in some
what difficult position. They had started
in to prove the officer a BLACKBOARD and
the private Il MARTYR; the result was cX-
actly the opposite, and the problem was
now how to get ont of the pickle 70 the
average man, soldier or civilian. the CON
sciousness of having publicly wronged Il
fellow being would have proved a source
of distress so deep that nothing short Of
retraction as public and apology as far
reaching as tho atfront would satisfy
the offender. But, in its Jovelike at
titude as censor of the morals and man
nerS of the people, the press has no such
qualms Of conscience.
As one eminent journalist expressed
it, "Ot course we are sorry we are mis-
led somewhat, but we can't take back
what has been said; that Injuries the pa
per- And of course rs between iniur-
ing the paper and iniuring the man it
is the man who must suffer. Another
gifted editor, in whose eyes no benefit
was quite TO be compared with free ad-
vertising, expressed himself as consider
ing that THAT young fellow really
ought to feel very much obliged to us;
niuc-tenths OF the people might never
have heard Of him at all if it hadn't been
for this" And he spoke in all serious
ness
OF course the correspondents them
selves had long since seen the inevitable
results, and had duly prepared their re-
spective papers for the crash. Some of
these Journals promptly dropped the
matter at once and for all as no longer
worthy of attention; others transferred
their +saults from the array of leut,.n-
ants to the array of courts martl"L
Others still, too deeply committed 10
eXtricate themselves, threw open their
columns to any damaging story aifcctrg

could fahricate; and those papers which
made any reference to the facts elected

sonal business of his own, to look into
some property and while there this Mr.
Schonbcrg, wealthy prominent, and,
rs we supposed, reputable business man,
told him about the offensive manners of
the officers to the people, and offered to
prove that they would be insulted and
ostracised if they ventured to visit the
garrison; and Abrams got warmed mp
and telegrnphed to the managing editor
that he was 'on to good thing; and SO
we wired him to go ahead" But a
junior member of the editorial staff
frankly admitted that he, in common
with other journalists, had for sixteen
years been "laying" for Il chance, as he
expressed it, to get in good whacl at
the young West Pointer, and here they
thought they had it.

Electric Poles in Berlin.

In Berlin the electric arc lamp poles
are things of beauty. They are more
properly brackets than poles, though.
The taps from the mains in the streets
are carried under the sidewalk to the
house wall and then up to the surface
At the sidewalk begins a handsome
scroll work affair of iron, which runs up
the house and then out over the street,
supporting the arc lamp. Near the base
is panel door provided with lock and
key. Back of the panel is a compart-
ment holding the fuse strips and switch,
and handle which fits on the square
head of windlass shaft projecting from
one side of the compartment.
The lamp trimmer comes along in the
morning, unlocks the panel door, exam
ines the fuse strips, throws the switch,
takes out the little handle, turns the
windlass, lowers, trims and raises the
lamp, restores the handle to the compart-
ment, throws down the switch, locks the
door and goes on to the next lamp. All
this work is done without climbing a
step. The whole device is painted a
dark green, picked out in gilt. Far from
being unsightly, they are real ornaments
to the street. The householders are anx-
ious to have these brackets placed on
their houses, often paying half the cost,
and sometimes the whole cost, for the
privilege. These devices are well made
and expensive, costing about $3.50 each.

The TeradO.

The shipworm or rteredo, with its long,
spiral shell, would hardly be taken for q
two Waived shell, yet it is. 1t is the bette
noir of the dock builder on the Pacific
and South Atlantic coasts, boring into
the wood and depositing lining, until
finally the wood is completely honey
combed and falls to pieces. On the
Florida reef I found that new dock,
when the piles were protected by cas-
ings covered with tar, were rendered
unsafe in a little over year. An old
wreck, comprised of the hull of good
sized ship, was visited by me in 1869;
three or four years later it had almost
disappeared.
1t was out of the reach of the SURF, and
simply fell apart by the action of these
destroyers that had completely honey
combed it, SO that, wading up to it at
low tide could puncture the hull any
where with my finger. The only wood
which seemed to resist the inroads Of
the animal was the palmetto. l often
found logs or trunks floating, and while
the terero had attacked it they were evil
IDENTIFY disheartened. Our common terero
is but few inches in length, but in Su-
matra a giant of six feet is found boring
in the mud.--San Francisco Chronicle

The Odd Use of Words.

1t is amusing to note how many words
and expressions we hear every day that
mean something far different from what
they seem to mean. We are SO accus-
toned to this that we pay little atten-
tion to it, except when we are in thought
full mood; and no matter how careful we
are we gradually drop into the habit Of
following our neighbor's example, and
in turn setting the example for others to
follow.
Thus we find no fault with the friend
who tells us soberly that the clock has
struck one, when we know that the clock
has never been guilty of striking anybody.
We do not protest against hearing an
other declare that he did something
wrong because he could not help it, as
though the wrong, had it been assisted,
would have committed itself and saved
the actual sinner from all blame. .-Har-

Effects of African Arrow Poison.

1t has been conjectured that the fatal
always due entirely to the poison itself,
and with view Of determining how far
fear and other influences enter into the
results of its exhibition a series of ex-
periments in inoculating the lower ami
mails has been proposed. One of the
poisons with which the arrows of the
Africans are smeared is dark substance
like pitch. 1t is strong enough to kill
elephants, and is considered SO danger
GUS that it's preparation is not allowed in
the villages, but is carried on in the
bush, where also the arrows are smeared.
The virulence of the poison is remark
able; faintness, palpitation of the heart,
nausea, pallor and the breaking out Of
beads of perspiration all over the body
follow with extraordinary promptness,
and death epsues.
One of Stanley's men is said to have
died within one minute from mere pin
hole puncture in the right arm and right
breast; another man died within an hour
and quarter after being shot; and a
woman died during the time she was
carried q distance of a hundred PAGES.
The activity of the poison seems to de-
pend on its freshness. The treatment
adopted was to administer an emetic, to
suck the wound, syringe it, and inject a
strong solution of carbonate of ammonia.
The carbonate of ammonia injection
seems to have been wonderful antidote
if it could be administered promptly
enough. New York Commercial Adver-

Dangerous lending.

An American who is in London for
several months every year returned from
one trip with handsome umbrella, on
the silver knob of which was engraved
a complicated monogram-the gentle
mans initials were HI. A. B. One day a
friend took up the umbrella, and after
squirting at the knob for several min
utes said: "This is rather a queer mono
gram on your umbrella, Mr.. -.
can see the A and B all right, but for
the life of me I can't find the H."
"Why," responded the owner quickly,
81 lent the umbrella to an Englishman
just before left London, and / presume
he dropped the HP'-San Francisco Ar

Indian Engraving.

Look at the most insignificant record
of a grant of rice to some poor Brahmin
in any temple during the days Of the
Chola OF Chalukya, ten or fifteen centu-
ries ago; each letter, each stroke or dot
stands in clear, distinct form, as legible
as it was years ago when its wording
meant SO much to the poor recipient.
But want of art energy is allowing this
to die. Ready as the Indian nation is
to present addresses of welcome to rajahs
and to English officials Of position, they
never take the trouble to engrave lasting
ones on copper. er.-Nineteenth Century.

Bad Form.

This Oxford university expression is
by many considered slang which it is
"bad form" to use. But is it not really
an old and somewhat classical phrasei
Thus Archbishop Laud wrote to the
vice chancellor at Oxford under date
Feb. 90, 1889: ''Sir--I am informed
that the masters, many of them, sit bare
at st. Marie's, having their hats there
and not their caps, rather choosing to
sit bare than to keep form, and then
so soon as they come out of the church
they are quite out of form all along the
Streets" etc.-Notes and Queries.

of mathematics and artillery practice in
the Washington college of Lexington,
and his father-in-law, DIR. George Junck-
lin, was president of the college. Presi-
dent Juncklin was an uncompromising
Union man, and just before the war,
when the secession spirit ran very high,
party of students one night raised q
Confederate flag over the dome of the
college. When Dr. Junclzlin came down
next morning and saw the flag he ordered
the janitor to take it down.
''The students told the janitor that if
he lowered the flag they would kill him,
and he refused. DR.. Juncklin, although
upward of seventy years old, mounted to
the dome, cut the halliards and brought
the flag down. Stepping into the bal
cony, he lighted match, set fire to the
flag, and, as it burned, said in a clear
voice that was heard by all below, so
may all attempts to destroy the Federal
Union end
''He was at once seized by crowd
of the infuriated students, and citi-
zens, and it required all the energy
of his son-in-law, 'Stonewalr Jack
son, and number of others to pre-
vent his being hanged on the spot.
A compromise was arranged by which
he was to leave the state. He hastily en-
tered his family carriage, and, with what
few effects he could lay his hands upon
readily, set out for Harper's Ferry, es-
corted by his friends. When he had
crossed the river he stopped the carriage
and directed the driver to wash every
particle of Virginia soil from its wheels

Our common word abridge has no con-

Nor has mildew anything to do either
with mill or dew. The word is the old
High German militou, rust on corn. The
likeness between mill and mel (honey)
suggested connection which resulted in
