The following the representative sales OF cat
tie at the yards TODAY:
HOGS.

The run of hogs was somewhat lighter
today than any day this week except Mon
dav. The market opened weak although
there were great many good hogs offered.
After the early sales decided decline was
noticed, and hogs sold from 5 to 10 cents
lower in the afternoon. All offerings
were taken and the pens were closed up.
The market closed to 10 cents lower than
yesterday but active at the decline.

A BOY AND HIS BL0WGuh
His Deadly Aim Brought the Family
to q Condition Of
Panic.
The One Man Who Has Brought
to Excellence the Brooklyn
Institute.
Coolness ON a Battleield-Holnc OF y Wall
Paper Printer-So Like His
t Father.

Ispecial Correspondence of The INDEPENDENT.
New York, March l8.-One of the best
known of our artists had, when he was q
little boy, a blowgun or tube in the use OF
which he was fatally proficient. He lived
at the time in a little country town and the
house of the next door neighbor was pretty
close to his home. Ono autumn day, being
armed with his tube, he happened to spy a
big pan Of pumpkin "fllinR" all ready to be
mt into pies, standing in the ~neighbor's
pantry window. The window was open,
and the boy knew where to look for a big
box of cathartic pills. These he obtained
and blew through the tube one after an
other with unerring aim into the pan,
where they promptly dissolved. The pies
were made and baked, and almost immedi-
atsly thereafter the entire family partaklng
of them was thrown into the widest sort OF
a panic. The doctor came at a gal
lop, emetics were administered and
there was some talk of having a
pumpkin sample analysed to detect the
mysterious poison when the thoroughly
frightened boy made a confession. The
alarm subsidized, the analysis project was
Given up and the boy was made to expert
ence a sudden distaste for blowpipe prac-
tice.
OF course it wouldn't be fair to say who
the artist is whose youth was thus distin-
ruishsd, but / have heard Hamilton Glib
son, the author-illustrator, tell the story
with keen relish.

This Room Can't be Initiated.

The wife of one of the we'll known wall
paper printers in the country rejoices in
some room decorations and furniture
which are certain never to be widely imi-
tated, simply because they cannot be. al
though the cost was quite small.
4he ordinary wall paper is printed upon
cylindrical rollers, varying in size accord
ing to the pattern, which is raised upon
them in very high relief. The narrower
borders are printed upon fiat strips of
wood, whose designs also stand bold
ly out. OF course, the cutting of
these cylinders and strips is quite
expensive, but when the patterns be-
come old fashioned they are no longer USE
full. This lady has taken a large quantity
of the cast-otf cylinders and flats and COM
bined them to make a library table, a man
tile, a decorative frieze. a wall cabinet and
the framework of n piece or two of uphol-
stored furniture. The effect when the proper
colors are used in painting the furniture is
remarkably beautiful. 1t is not often that
a private house in America can show any
thing like such a quantity of beautiful re-
lief carvings. A folding screen, fashioned
OF the flat strips, swung from four columns
of cylinders. is the masterpiece of this alb
~solutely unique decorative scheme.

A Story of Gettysburg.

A story of Gettysburg which las not been
in print seems almost like an impossibility,
yet I am pretty certain that the following
incident has never seen the light: When
the tremendous cannonade which preceded
Pickett's great charge was going on, and
the troops of Hancock's column were lying
fiat upon the ground in the sitting July
heat, a young soldier of the Second Yer
mont brigade. whose appropriate name is
Allen, though 1 do not know if he
is a descendant of the redoubtable
Ethan. left the ranks, walked back
about a hundred yards where the
shells were flying thickest, filled his can
teen at a spring, came back to the line and
slowly passed along it, giving to each man
in his company a few dlops. Then he
dropped back into his place entirely unhurt.
A few minutes a%fterward. while ompara
lively in the shelter, he received a wounc
which has famed him ~fcrlife.
While getting the water and passing il
about, MIR. Allen says. he felt no fear what
ever, out as soon as he was wounded he re
allied the danger of the situation and wa,
mortally aft aid Of being killed until stan
nard's charge shattered Pickett's splendi,
column. and the tide of battle ebbed bacl
from where he lay.
