BosToN. Sept. 16.-There was howl
ing mob in the Providence station this
morning at II o'clock when the worlds
champion, Corbett, arrived from Provi-
dence. Three.or four thousand people
blocked the way to the trains, and ex-
tended in unbroken ranks Tar down the
great train house. They were fooled
once or twice as to where the champion
was going 20 alight, and to make sure
the majority ran around the depot leach
time. When he did alight the crowd all
rushed up to the traiE and yelled, and
when he went out of a side door
everybody tried to go out at the
same time and through the same
exit, and mighty current of humanity
issued forth and swept all before it, tip
ping over a cabin in its rush. Corbett
took hack for the Adams house, and
passed in at rear entrance. The crowd
in front continued to increase, and the
street was blocked for long time.

Strength and the Hair.

The discussion as to abundance of haiI
being evidence of strength has agar
come up, some arguing that there wa'
nothing novel In Samson's strength bein1
IN his hair, and others that as rule the
strongest men are least blessed with an
abundant hair covering. There are
necessarily exceptions to all rules. but
most freaks of strength of modern times
have luxuriant hair. There are five or
six women now travelling with dime
museum shows, lifting enormous
weights with their hands or teeth, and
performing other extraordinary feats of
strength, and nearly all of them have
magnificent heads of hair.
Among prize fighters the same rule
applies, and although athletes generally
keep their hair cut very close to the
head, they usually have very thick
growth of hair and are seldom bald.
Ancient history is delved into a great
deal IN the discussion, but the fact re-
mains that the strongest men of today
have IN almost every instance not only
heavy heads of hair, but also quite a
substantial growth on the chest ana
arms. 1t may be that excessive bodily
vigor and activity promote the growth
OF hair, or that the hair itself is an evi-
dence of strength, but whichever may
be the cause and the effect, the combi-
natlon exists as very general rule

PRESBYTERIAN REVISION.

NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-The members oi
the revision committee of The Presbyterian
general assembly met again today TO con
tihue their revision Of the Westminster
confession of faith. It WAS proposed to
amend section l of chapter I BY making ii
read as follows:
1T pleased God, the Father, Son and
Holy Ghost, by the manifestation of the
glory of his eternal power, wisdom and
goodness. in the beginning to create OF
nothing the universe and all things therein,
whether visible or invisible, aud ali very
good. Heaven and earth, with all that
they contain, were made by him in six
creative days"
AT the afternoon session the amendment
to section l, chapter 4, was adopted.
III chapter 10, ''Of Free Will" section I
was amended so as to read as follows:
GOD nath endued the will of man with
that natural liberty that is neither forced,
nor by absolute necessity OF nature de-
termined 10 good or evil wherefore man is
and remains free moral agent. retaining
full responsibility for all his acts, in his
states alike of innocence, of sin, of grace
and of glory"

A Remarkable Stone Thrower.

1t IS supposed that we have 70 men
nowadays who could compete on even
terms with the old archers A man
named Uri Bailey recently died in Penn
sylvania who was worthy of place with
the old time soldiers. His skill in throw
ing stones was said to be marvellous. He
was mentally deficient, but giant phys
lcally. His aim with stones at any mark
or game was as unerring as that of the
most skillful handler of the rifle. He
annually bagged scores Of small game
pheasants, rabbits, quails and squirrels,
which he killed with stones.
He could kill bird on the wing or a
rabbit at full speed almost as easily as
he could kill it at rest. He had a large
leather pouch attached to one side of his
coat, in which he ON all occasions car
ried a good supply of carefully selected
stones An exhibition of his skill, which
was always a favorite with him, was to
set up scythe blade, edge toward him,
and at the distance of 100 feet cut
apples in halves by throwing them
against the edge of the blade.
He could almost exactly halve two
cut of every three apples he threw.
Robin Hoods great feat of skill was to
set up a peeled sapling at a considerable
distance and split it with an arrow. We
do not see that this is more difficult than
splitting the apple on the scythe blade.

Why It Was Named Dyachias.

A good many people doubtless have
wondered why Secretary Tracy named
the gunboat launched at Bath, Ne, tie
Machias. Machias people know why,
and are very proud Of the exploit of
their ancestors, who within few weeks
of the battle of Concord fought smart
naval engagement and captureda a British
schooner which was blockading their
port. The captain Of the British schooner
commanded the men of Machias to cut
down the liberty pole which they had
set up on their common. The men O..
Machias refused, and there was some
slHirmishing of an inconclusive nature.
Finally some bold spirits in the town
fitted out a sloop and attacked the
schooner, which was named the Marga-
retta. The engagement was brisk, and
the Americans succeeded in boarding
the schooner, drove her crew below and
pulled down the British colors. Machias
people claim that the Margaretta was
the first British vessel captured in the
Revolution, and their exploit is some
times called 'the Lexington of the Seas"
Machias is an historical place, and if
the gunboat is handled with the old
Machias spirit she will give a good ac-
count of herself.-Boston Transcript
