a Kings bravery.

King Humbert, of Italy, has been
awarded a gold medal by the state COM
mission ''for civil valor," the occasion
being the collapse of q house in Rome
last January. His majesty climbed down
riclsety ladder into the cellar ahead
of everyone else and assisted in rescu-
ing several persons who were badly in
jured from the ruins. TO one poor fell
low that was pinned down for hours by
heavy tiInbers he gave wine and verbal
solace, and to another man who fecbly
tried to thank him he answered: Don't
talk now, it will make you worse" The
only momcspt when he seemed to think
of anything but the scene around him
was when he ordered message to be
sent to the queen, who was awaiting
luncheon for him, not to be uneasy as
he might not be able to return for some
hours. The king did not leave the spot
until all were brought out alive.

Story of DR.. EainafOrd.

A New York correspondent relates
how on one occasion DIR. Rainsford, of
st. Georges church in that city, forcibly
elected muscular, Swapping fellow
who persisted in disturbing one of his
meetings after being duly cautioned. A
few minutes later the bully returned,
and following him was another strapping
big fellow, who DR.. Rainsford supposed
was companion. The rector said to
himself: Now l shall have Il circus;
shall have to put them both out" The
second bully began to make trouble at
once, and Mr.. Rainsford went to him
and commanded him to behave himself
or leave. He, too, was insolent, and
the minister was about to attncls him.

The Crime of "IIoodlinC."

"lIoodling," says dispatch from
Washington, is word which has been
coined in the post Office department.
The letter carriers of the country arc
suspcctcdof "hoodling." To ''hoodlc"
is to take more time in delivering or
collecting letters than is absolutely
necessary. The postmaster general
and the superintendent Of the free de-
livery service have held several con-
fcrcnccs to consider plans for the pre-
vcntion of ''hoodling." The superin-
tcndcnt says he has invcstignted enough
to satisfy him that the evil has assumed
serious proportions,

no doubt safe and practical steam car
riagcs would be common objects of the
highway at the present time; so COM
mon that the most frisky and ill-brol1cn
horses would not regard them with
alarm" The same writer made short
trip on the carriage here described,
which was being exhibited in u London
suburb, but was not allowed To show
the speed of which it is capablc-an
average of Ii to Is miles an hour-for
the reason that the law confined its dis
play to the limits OF the works whcro
it was shown. We quote the following
particulars: The carriage takes the
form of mail phacton. The boiler is
of the Scrpollot type, and consists of
tube. The engines possess no
special features of novelty. The
products of combustion and exhaust
steam are carried out at the rear as
shown. The exhaust is superhcated
before it escapes SO that it is invisible
In France the prciudiccs Of the authori-
ties against steam on the road have
been overcome, and there arc several of
these carriages in ordinary use in Paris
and elsewhere. The speed is, however,
restricted to ten miles an hour in the
city. The experience is that horses arc
not frightened at all, rs indeed there is
no reason they should be. Some horses
will shy at anything, others have their
pet aversions; but these are ill-broken
animals that are far greater danger
to the public than any number of steam
carriages. 1t is, of course, unnecessary
to point out to engineers that dcccntly
designed steam carriage is far moro I'M
der control than Il horse-drawn vehicle,
both in the matter of turning, stopping
and starting. The gain in space would
also be enormous could mechanical APP
plianccs take the place of horse trac-
ton. In spite of this we have not much
hope that the two gallant Frenchmcn
who are attempting the task will be
able to move our authorities We do so
hate anything that is new and strange
in this country
