CURIOUS PUNISHMENTS.
How Adulteration Was Punished In
Oiden Times.

How AduIteration Was Punished In
oIden Times.
An examination of the different entries
contained in the Machyn diary sheds a
strong light on crime and criminal punish
ment during the reign of Mary, who served
the English people from 1868 to 1858.
First, he mentions a young fellow who
was tied to post, "hard by the Standard in
Chep," with a collar Ct iron about his eek,
and Soundly whipped every two hours for
five days together by two stout men," for
the crime of pretending to see visions. Fur
ther On we read: Chicken, a parSon of st.
Nicholas, Cold Aarbor, was this day driven
about the streets of London in cart, the
pars0n himself dressed in yellow gown"
all Of this because he had sold his wife TO
the butcher.
Was it only a coincidence that butcher
WAS one of the parties To this transaction,
or was it the intention of ''the g00dly man"
TO have his better half served up in Toasts
and troumedees? AS 1t Is now nearly $50
years since ''the parson" committed that M
canny crime, tits doubtful IL we ever find out
whether she went TO the skillet or not
According to the other items liz Machyn,
one can readily see that purveyors of pro-
visions were the same kind of mortals then
as they are to-day. They were inclined to
palm off their base goods as sound; to use
their arts 10 take in thu customer, only the
punis hment inflicted when the fraud was
discovered was somewhat more personal
and severe than IL is now.
Machyn says that a butcher of that time
who had exposed diseased meat for sale
was forced to ride about the streets of Lon
don, his face toward the horses tail, with
half lamb before and another half behind.
and beef and veal borne before him on a
long pole" Men who sold spoiled fish were
put in the pillory with decayed fish strung
about their necks.

A FRIGHTFUL FALL.
Lieutenant Mansfield'S Balloon
and Parachute Experience.

The death at Bombay of Lieutenant Mans
field. British officer of the Royal Naval
Reserve. who was killed IN a horrible man
ner, has caused much regret in military cir
Giles. Lieutenant Mansfield had made the
science OF aeronautcS a specially. His aim
was to make balloons of practical use IN
strategy and perfect them so as to render
them reliable. He made a successful as
cent on November 18th at Bombay On that
occasion he descended safely by his para
chute height of about 1000 feet. or more
than two miles. He himself gave the fol-
lowing description Of the descent:
Finding my apparatus all clear, l took
the balloon ring in my right hand, drew
myself clear of the trapeze and dropped
down into space. After descending with
Terrible velocity for some distance the para
chute began to open. AT 1920 feet | was
falling at great speed, but was fully able to
control my apparatus" At 10000 feet he
was sailing down calmly in space. Then he
drl1ted to and fro in various counter cur
rents, and at 1000 feet exactly felt the heat
from long, red, iron chimney.
Now c"mes the more remarkable part OF
the narrative. steering my parachute"
he continues, "to the eastward, L dropped
her rapidly to clear the buildings ahead,
and seeing nothing but houses to descend
OH, selected the 0atleSt L cOulu nnu anu
dropped down on it" ''Such a complete
master Of the air." says an eyewitness,
has never been seen before in this cOun-
try" The balloon fell as was intended, in
the sea, where, being fitted with cork belts
for the purpose it was easily recovered.
Lieutenant Mansfield announced that mis-
next ascent would be with an entirely new
apparatus specially adapted in military war
fare.
On November 18th he arranged to go up
IN his balloon and to descend In the para
chute, and an immense crowd was gathered
In the Victoria Gardens anticipating an in
teresting feat of b0ldness and skill. The
balloon was filled with gas and as soon as
the Lieutenant was ready it was released.
Upwent the balloon with tremendous rapid
lty, owing to the undue amount OF gas which
had been forced into il.
When the balloon reached a height Of
about 400 feet, however it burst with a loud
explosion and began TO fall with an ever
increasing rapidity IL was horrible sight
to see the doomed man making wild and
de-psTate efforts 10 disengage the parachute
from the debris Of the balloon. He tugged
and tugged, his head dizzy with the rapid
motion and tie fear OF a horrible death
which was approaching nearer with every
throb Of his heart. But his efforts were
vain. He could not tear away the parachute
from the mass Of entangled ropes. The spec
tators were powerless To render him any as
sistanee. The remains Of the balloon fell
violently, and in an instant the hardv officer
was bleeding, shapeless mass.-LOndon
