HERR MOST BOBS UP
With the Story of His Prison Life
the Day He Is Set Free.
He DID NOT GREATLY ENJOY 1T.
Billy McGlory Becomes His Intimate Friend
at Blackwelra
WOULD LIKETo SEE HIS ENEMIES THERE

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.1
NEW YORK, April 19.-Johann Most, the
Anarchist, who ten months ago was taken
to Blackwell's Island for taking part in an
unlawful assembly, was released yesterday
morning, and landed at the foot,of East
Fifty-second street. After breakfasting he
went to the Office of the Feiheit, of which
he is editor, and wrote a long article on his
prison life. Most refused to talk with the
reporters. Referring to his personal e1-
periences, he wrote:
"To spend ten months doing nothing but
drilling, drilling the same everlasting holes
slonally, it is true, when there were no
holes to drill, cleaned windows, and once
1 was hitched to wagon like horse to
haul timber from the end of the island to q
building site. The monotony of the work
was the more oppressive, as nv assistant
during the first five months was fearfnlly
demoralized Chinaman.
"Then, for a while had some bad New
York boys, and finally, to my relief, Billy
McGlory. This man is not the brutal fel-
low he is pictured by the hypocritical
press, but an intelligent, well-read man,
who can talk intelligently on a hundred
different topics, and who thereby shortened
my Imprisonment very materially.
Looking back now on the whole episode
in the punishment inflicted on me with such
Unprecedented frivolitv, I must say it was
the saddest part of my life. Generally
when one has suffered some grievous inflic-
tion he repeats the old phrase: L would
not wish my worst enemy to suffer as I
did 1 am not so good natured. If
/ could see my enemies-that is,
small part of them, as many as there is
room for-at work on Blackwell's Island, I
would enjoy the sight, and I am certain
that the most of them would soon become
consumptive or commit suicide.
'tBut there are illustrious scoundrels of
all sorts ENJOYING life, and men of my kind
have to drain one bitter cup of humiliation
after the other until political and social
thunder storm shall sweep through the
world and cleanse the atmosphere SO that
humanity can breathe"

Carrier Pigeons for the Navy.

When the United States practice ship
Constellation sailed on the cadets sum-
mer voyage Monday afternoon it had
aboard number of homing pigeons,
to be used as means of communication
between the ship and points ashore. The
birds will be liberated at intervals, and
are expected to bring official messages
from the practice vessel to the naval
academy, where a loft or cote has re-
Gently been established.
If the experiment should prove sue
cessful the government will probably
find it profitable to the navy to encour-
age the homing pigeon service with the
small appropriation needed to carry out
the plans of the projectors of the enter
prise. At present the facilities for
training birds at the naval academy are
limited, no government appropriation
being available. At Fortress Monroe,
the first stopping place of the ship, it is
possible several trained birds from Bal
timore, Philadelphia and New York will
be taken aboard and later dispatched
with information from the cruising
grounds. The headquarters at Wash
ington will also be posted of the where
abouts of the vessel through winged
messengers from that CITY, A loft Of
birds to accompany the ship will no
doubt be sufficiently trained toward the
close of the voyage to be useful in con-
veying messages ashore.

Too Many Generals.

In these days, when the real soldiers
of the war are growing fewer and
fewer there is marked increase of
generals. The ready acceptance of
military titles by men who never wore
the blue is trifle surprising. So read
lily are they put on that any general
manager, general superintendent or
general passenger agent becomes en-
dowed with the glittering prize. A
gentleman who was first assistant post
master general few years ago, and
who is now the democratic candidate
for vice. president of the United States,
is found enjoying the title, and is
promptly supplied with heroic war
record by his admiring fellow demo-
Gratis. Neither war record nor title
is his, however. AT Minneapolis the
contending forces of the republicans
were under the command of General
Clarkson and General New, the one
having gained his title by decapitat-
ing fourth-class postmasters and the
other by serving as consul-general to
London. And so it goes. We are a
peace-loving people and should at least
try to keep down the list of generals by
bestowing the title only on those who
served three months in the militia or
have viewed without finching the aw-
full carnage of battle cyclorama.-

The rt.thumbed and the Slender
Monkeys.

Our representative of the short
thumbed monkeys, the guerezas, as
well as the two species of short-thumbed
monkeys which l have tanned, eat reg
ularly but daintily of the hay that
serves them for straw and bedding, and
the guerezas eat with particular relish
the heads of green salad which they
have learned to expect eagerly for their
supper. In outer general appearance,
which is chiefly dependent on the char
acter of the hair coating, the slender
and short thumbed monkeys exhibit
some important peculiarities which dis
tinguish both groups, while the Indian
slender monkeys generally have short
fur and their hair makes a conspicuous
growth only in spots in the shape of
head-tufts, names, whiskers, and gor-
gets. The African short-tailed mon
keys are distinguished by long, luxu-
RANT hair covering over the whole body,
the effect of which is enhanced by
handsome and conspicuous markings.
The more delicate differences of hairi-
ness, coloring, and marking serve, in
both groups, to fix the distinctions of a
considerable list of species.-Dr. L.
Heck, in Popular Science Monthly.

Educating the Eye.

Sir Thomas Lawrence, an eminent
English painter and president of the
Royal Academy, commended the pic
lures of young artist, and then said to
him: "You have round your room two
or three rough, clever, but coarse Flem-
ish sketches. If l were you, l would
not allow my eye to become familiar
lied with any but the highest forms of
art. If you cannot afford to buy good
oil paintings, buy good engravings of
great pictures, or have nothing at all
upon your walls. You allow, in inter-
course with your fellows, that Evil
communications corrupt good manners.
So it is with pictures. If you allow
your eyes to become familiar with what
is vulgar in conception, however free
and dashing the handling, and however
excellent the feeling for color, your
taste will ipsensibly become depraved
Whereas, if you habituate your eye to
look only on what is pure and grand
or refined and lovely, your taste will
insensibly become elevated"
Sir Thomas advice, which is as APP
plicable to books as to pictures, was en-.
forced by an anecdote. An artist OF
reputation, who had never seen any OF
the works of the greatest painters
went with Sir Thomas to see one of the
best collections on the continent. Il
was arranged according to the different
notwithstanding with the German
proceeding to the Flemish, Dutch
Spanish, Bolognese, the Venetian, ant
ending with the Umbrian.
The artist was so fascinated with the
vigor, the color, the invention and the
drawing of Rubens' pictures that ST
Thomas had difficulty in dragging hin
away from them. After visiting the
several schools they came to the Ital
ian collection, with its Guidos, Titiani
and Raphaels, before which they lin
gered until the hour for closing tn,
gallery. The contemplation of thes'
beautiful, chastened works of the Ital
ian masters 80 educated the visitor
taste that on repassing the Ruben
pictures, which few hours before hat
delighted him, he shuddered at thei
grossness.

The Washington Encampment.

In spite of the parsimony of con-
gressmen who oppose on all possible
occasions the recognition of the SER
vices of the men Of 1S61-65 in putting
down the most gigantic rebellion of
history, the bill appropriating S90,000
to assist the Grand Army in making its
twenty-sixth national encampment, to
be held in Washington next September,
worthy of the occasion, has received
the assent of both houses. This is not
what the public-spirited and patriotic
members proposed. The senate passed
the bill at 100000, the original figure,
and insisted that the appropriation
should be raised in way that honorable
men thought fair-one-half to be paid
by the government which had been
saved from destruction, and the other
from the treasury of the district of Co.
lumbia. The house, under the control
of faction which always looked upon
the defeat of secession as a party tri-
umph and which has never forgiven the
veterans of the war for the part they
took in it, held out for SIS, 900 only, all
of which should be paid by the district.
Grudgingly the sum was raised in con-
ference committee to 900, but the
reactionists chung to their scheme for
saddling the whole amount upon the
district, putting the government in the
position of being too niggardly to spend
the money necessary properly to well
come its defenders. The sum which
congress failed to give has been more
than made up by the individual SUBJ
scriptions of the citizens of Washing
ton, and the national encampment will
be the most magnificent, perhaps, ever
held. -Ne1D York Tribune.

Earning His Money Easily.

A Scotch laddie delivering milk was
stopped the other day on his rounds by
two police officers who asked him if
his employer ever put anything in the
milk. 80, ay," was the innocent an
swer. The officers, thinking they had
clear case of adulteration, offered the
boy sixpence if he would tell them what
was put in it. "Ah," said the boy
with grin, "ye wadna gie's the six
pence though l tell't ye." 80, yes, we
will" said the officers. "Gie's it,
them" said the little fellow. The six
pence was duly handed over with the
question, "Now what does your en-
ployer put in the milk?" "Why,"
said the boy, with cunning look, "he
puts the measure in every time he talks
ony DOT !"-London Spare Moments.

The Division of Time.

The division of time into hours was
practiced among the Babylonians from
remote antiquity, but it was Hipparchus,
the philosopher, who introduced the
Babylonian hour into Europe The sex
agesimal system of notation was chosen
by that ancient people because there is
no number having SO many divisions as
sixty. The Babylonians divided the
daily journey of the sun, the ruler of the
day, into twenty-four parasangs. Each
parasang or hour was subdivided into
sixty minutes, and that again into sixty
seconds. They compared the progress
made by the sun during one hour at the
time of the equinox to the progress
made by good walker in the same
period of time, both covering one para
sang, and the course of the sun during
the full equinoctial day was fixed at
twenty-four parasangs.

Soloiers' 8uoget.
A Daring Lad.

" 1t has been stated that for every
eight hundred bullets fired during the
civil war man was killed, but l saw a
regiment of Mississippians, who prided
themselves on their workmanship, send
that many bullets after one man and
fail to get him." said Major James
Huxley, at the Southern. "We were
at Corinth, and had captured a smooth
faced young Yankee, convicted him of
being spy and sentenced him to be
hanged. He was marched out of camp
to where rude gallows had been has
tily erected, and the regiment detailed
to see him we'll into the next world
formed a hollow square. The prisoner
was slight, girlish-looking fellow with
a babyish face, and felt that he should
be spared and sent home to his mother
instead of being strung up as a spy. /
expected to see him break down and
beg for his life, and was nerving my
self for it, when we were treated to
spectacle of quite different kind.
Just as he mounted the gallows, with a
guard on either side of him and two be-
hind him, he slipped his small hands
through his jewelry and let out right
and left, knocking the first two guards
sprawling. The two behind him stood
two steps below him. He turned,
vaulted over their heads, and before the
square could come to charge bayon-
cts had broken through it and was run
ming like scared wolf. The regiment
broke into an impulsive cheer, and it
was nearly minute before the order
to fire upon him was obeyed. Then a
scattering volley was sent after him. l
don't know how the others aimed, but
l can make oath that my bullet did not
come within dozen rods of him. We
gave chase, but it was likeitrying to run
down streak of lightning. Once the
young fellow turned and waved his
handkerchief, then fed on toward the
federal lines. "-St. Louis. Globe-Denao-

A New Grand Army Badge.

For number of years, says the Bos-
ton Journal, the need of distinctive
department badge of the Grand Army
has been felt by the comrades of this
state, and action has now at last been
taken to adopt one. The states OF Penn
sylvania, New Hampshire, Maine, Kan
sas, Texas and California have badges
of this type. The badge will be gold
plated affair, consisting of bar with
" G.. A. II. Massachusetts" struck ON
it. On the reverse side of the shield,
which will be suspended from the
keeper by white gros grain ribbon,
the Massachusetts coat of arms will be
struck, and on the reverse side will be
fac-simile of the Grand Army button,
with the words: Department of Mas
sachusetts, G.. A. r., adopted 1892"
