A Chicago solomon.

From the Boston Gazette.
A famous Chicago lawyer once had . singular
case to settle. A physician came to him in
great distress. Two sisters, living in the same
house, had babies Of equal age. who 50 re-
sembled each other that their own mothers
were unable to distinguish them when they
were together.
Now, it happened that by the carelessness Of
the nurses the children had become mixed, and
how we're the mothers to make sure that they
received back their own infants?
"But perhaps" said the lawyer, 'the chill
dren weren't changed at all"
''Oh, but there's no doubt that they were
changed" said the physician.
'Are you sure Of it,"
Perfectly"

STORY OF THE CONQUEST.
In Diegos curious book called 1.-The Kingdom
of Chilli it is gravely recorded that when VAL
divia's forces met the Indians near the present
city Of Imperial they were suddenly overspread
by great red cloud of wonderful brightness;
and while the astonished armies gazed in awe
upon it an angel appeared and rolled back the
crimson curtain, revealing the queen of heaven
in gorgeous attire. with an Indian kneeling
before her pleading for mercy. The simple
aborigines fed in dismay and thus the battle
was won by the Spaniards without bloodshed.
An old painting of this remarkable scene
hangs in the museum, and if not the same
kneeling Indian, there are scores precisely like
him. all in half-kneeling, half-squatting posi-
uon-their knees on q level with their ears,
bound round and round with rawhide ropes.
mouths open, eyes gone, grave clothes old and
tanned like their own skins There is boy
mummy, still grasping a sling in his shriveled
hand; baby mummy which was probably
loved by its mummy mother q few centuries
ago, and grandmother mummy, clinging to
her spindles and primitive weaving apparatus.
Most of the horrible company have cOntorted
| necks and twisted limbs, and every brown face
wears an expression OF fearful agony, as if
striving to convince beholders that the statement
of history is true to the effect that the num-
mifying process was begun by their relatives
before life had left the body-it having been
necessary to bind them fast in what was con-
sidered the proper position before death had
stiffened their muscles FANNIE B. WARD.

Jews Robbed of Their Farms.

A Visnns dispatch says that the
Israelite alliance in that city for the
relief of fugutives from Russia has
more than it can attend to. A party
of Jews from the government OF POdol-
ski tell en- interesting story of their
expulsion. They were farmers and
shorkeepers, and Immediately upon
the receipt of the order for them to 20
they were at once turned out of their
houses. They did not even get an
offer for their dwellings and the con-
tents, aud whole farms III this way
taken possession of by peasantry who
never had the slightest to or claim
upon the property. The Vienna pa
pers earnestly advise the Jews to go
back to Russia again, OH the ground
that their numb RS are too great for
wholesale emigration. The party
from PodOlskl are now on their way
to America.

This last winter, Mr.. Edwin Smith,
