\ remarkable case occurred in the snow
storm of November, 1890 A middle aged
woman, named Alice Jane Lowe, belong
ing to Wigau, was admitted into Spalding
Workhouse in very weak state, having
been found blythe relieving officer sleeping
out in the snow in the Lincolnshire Fens,
near Spalding, She was put to bed, and
then stated that she had slept out for five
weeks continuously, including, within the
last few days, the severest weather of the
year, when the snow covered the ground
to the depth of nearly a foot, The poor
woman's hair was in such matted state
that it had to be all cut off. She stated
that she had tramped from Lancashire
where she had formerly been in domestic
service, and at the time she was found in
the snow She appeared to have lost her
way. The workhous2 officials consider it
most remarkable that the woman survived
the exposure and cold.-I4eisurc Hour.

They Have Things All Their Own Way
aud Cut Up Some Queer Capcrs.
An English gentleman who has lived
many years in India tells some queerstories
about the sacred monkeys that are great
nuisance in some parts of that country.
No one is allowed TO modest them. They
run about the streets, help themselves to
whatever they please at the shops, ROB
orchard, and gardens and play havoc gen.
orally 70 thrash them is regarded as a
miSdcmeanOr, and to shoot a monkey
might cause a second mutiuy.
The gentleman had n garden where grew
delicious fruits. The sacred monkeys easily
scaled the walls and helped themselves,
They were not content with simply eating,
but amused themselves with throwing half
muuchcd fruit at each other To shoot
these pests was out Of the question, and to
hit them with stones was impossible, as
they easily lodged any missile that might
be thrown at them An idea struck the
Eugiishman one day, and he at once pro-
eccdcd to carry it into effect with great
success.
lie got q large basket of the largest pc
tatoe~ that were to be found and had them
boiled. When they were sCalding hot he
had basket and potatoes placed under one
of the trees The monkeys were watching
these movements from the trees Presently
every monkey seized a hot potato, and then
followed the most upearthly screeches and
gatherings. \ monkey will never let go

of, even if he has to die, and these monkeys.

For Women Artists.

One of the youngest and certainly most
prominent of female benefactors is Miss
Alice Donleyy, the little lady who stands
mt the head of the Ladies' Art association,
and who has fought like tigress for its
young TO keep life and hope alive for WON
en- artists. Twenty years ago Miss Don
levy, a precOCious girl of some seventeen
summers, represented TO Peter Cooper the
need of an art association where women
artists might paint and exhibit their pct-
ures. The benevolent old gentleman patted
her on the shoulder and helped her con
summate her plans.
For a month all went as merry as a mar
riage bell until Miss Donlevy became
aware that the womens work was suffer
ing from harsh criticisms made by board
of inspectors composed of men. She inter
viewed Mr.. Cooper and told him the men
must be asked to resign. lie refused to in
tertere in the matter, and consequently the
association fell into disfavor and died.
But hardly twelve months had gone by
before Miss DOnlevy brought another into
existence, which stands today Il model for
all art clubs for perfection of techuicality
and mpariaity of criticism.

For Service Rifles.

An ingenious invention has recently ap
peared for enabling shooting practice to be
made with service rifles in many cases
where no range exists, and where it is only
possible to fire with some device of this
kind. An ordinary cartridge case is EN-
ployed to hold miniature cartridge and
bullet in its mouth, which together occupy
the position of the service bullet, the part
occupied by the service charge being filled
up by chamber containinga piston, which
is struck by the regular breech block piston
on firing, and so carries it's blow to the
miniature cartridge. Cartridges with diff
ferent charges are made for ranges from
20 to 800 yards New York Times.

HOW TO KILL YOUR TOWN,

The following suggestions as to how
to kill town, we find going the
rounds of the press. We do not kno "
what paper they are original with:
Glory in the downfall Of man who
has done much to build up the town.
Make your town out very bad
place and stab it every chance you
get.
Refuse TO unite in any scheme for
the betterment of the material interest
Of the peo pie.
Tell your merchants that you can
buy goods great deal cheaper In
some other town, and charge HIM with
extortion.
If stranger comes to your town
tell him that every thing is overdonr
and predict general crash in the neat
future.
Keep up divided public sentiment
on the best method of increasing bus
mess.
When you have anything to say OF
your town say 1t such a way thai
t will leave the impression that you
lave no faith in it.
If you are merchant don't adver- |
ise in the home paper, but buy a rub
'er stamp and use it. It may save
ou few dimes aud make your let
er heads and wrappers look as though
'ou were doing business in one horse
own.
