IN MEMORIAM.

KELLER-Died, at walthourville. Ga, on the
18th OF May 1892, after brief illnssa E Full
LER KELLER, aged Al years
The deceased was called away while yet in
the plenitude OF his manhood and strength, and
ere the shadows had scarce begun to fall across
the dividing line. Though still young in years,
he had not lived In vain. His life had been full
OF noble deeds and generous actions. An Affsc-
tionate husband, loving father, devoted son
and brother and faithful friend, he conscien-
tiously discharged all the duties devolved upon
him in the various relations that he sustained.
He was devoted to his family. loyal to his
friends and an upright citizen. He was q man
of warm. sensibilities. generous impulses and
ingenious disposition. OF high character and
sterling integrity, firm in his convictions yet
kind and tender in his feelings, be won the con-
f1denee and esteem OF those with whom he
came in contact and endeered himself to all by
his noble qualities. He was in truth an honest
manly, noble man. His heart went out in
sympathy for the afflicted and unfortunate, and
promptly responded to every cry Of distress.
No appeal to his generosity was ever made in
Wan; no aid that he could extend was ever
withheld. he was possessed OF marvellous In
dustry and Indomitable energy He was Of a
cheerful, bouyant disposition, and his presence
ever lent charm to the domestic circle. His
life was simple and upostentatious, yet noble in
its very simplicity. Kind. generous and benevo-
lent, those who knew him best mourn him most,
and they only can justly estimate his worth
and virtues. The grave has closed over all that
was mortal Of him whom we loved in iife and
now mourn In death, wringiDg the heart strings
of the loved ones he has left behind at the
severance of these tender ties, but he has left

There are some people who believe that
the cabs we have to-day, especially those at
railroad stations, are the Identical ones used
in the time of Savage and De GlVry. In
deed, the horses, from their extreme age
and miserable appearance, might also date
from the seven teenth century. But we are to
have a revolution, by the introduction OF the
hOro- kilOmetrique cOmpteur. This little ap-
paratus will teach duty to cOachmen and
fare and the cab-driyers themselves have
been very anxious for the adoption OF the
hOrO-kilOmetre. These have always con-
sdered it unjust that they were obliged to
nay the same amount to the owners whether
they earned the money or not. By the new
system we shall know the time the distance
and the sum of money that the driver must
receive. The cabman will be able to show
the owner the distance he has Travelled dur
ing the day and the amount Of money he has
received. or this sum the owner will give the
driver one quarter. Under the drivers seat
Is a small brass box 40 arranged that those
inside the cab can see It's face. There is
clock, then an opening where the price is
registered, then another opening where one
sees the distance covered. A wateT-pump
Is attached to one of the hind wheels of the
cab and lever regulates the water pulsa-
lions, while each pusatiOn denotes turn
of the wheel. The cOachman also has
lever, and when his cab is not engaged he
turns the lever back ward and libre (free) is
marked on a disk. When engaged he turns
the lever forward and loue Qe0 is marked
Tnen, every turn of the wheel is recorded,
and when the cab stops the lever Is turned
and the disk marks au pas. If the coach

them, for me they have never yet been de-

A large group OF newsb0ys gathered
around an innocent looking wooden box in
the porch of the Newsboys' Lodging-house
at Duane street about noon. They were
eager to see what it contained, and they
hammered the box assiduously with brick
until they broke in the top, disclosing
twenty-five wicked looking dynamite car

and it is considered a miracle that the

fridge was enclosed in a metallic cylinder,
and was loaded and pTimed and coil of
wire was attached. The boys thought the
coils of wire were fuses, and they tried Ia-
successfully to light them by burning pieces
of paper under them.

for there was a time when only the very
wealthy knew the luxury Of driving. Three
centuries ago there were very few car
riages, and when the Queen drove Henry
~ was obliged to walk. After his time
carriages were more numerous, but the first
livery-sta6le keeper was Nicolas Savage,
who, thinking what was good for the rich
would not be bad for the poor, established
himself in the Rue Saint Martin, opposite
Rue MontmOrency. Others followed his eX-
ample and in May. 1867, there was cab
company under the direction of NJ. do
Givry. This enterprising Frenchman OBJ
tanned the monopoly and the Government
gave him permission to establish in every
square in Paris as many twO-hor5e coaches
and chariots as he chose. These were to be
ready from O'Clock in the morning until
o'clock at night, and to be let to those who
wished by the hour or day. To destroy the
success of NJ. de Givry the omnibus was in
vented, and March IS, 1862, seven enormous
coaches for the first time took up and put
down passengers between the Porte Saint
Martin and the Luxembourg Palace.

a rather curious and interesting dog case
was recently decided at the County Dublin
Quarter Sessions. Two army officers had
been Sponding about the sale and pur-
chase Of an Irish SETTER with the result
shat the dog was sent from one to the other
on trial. The first time it was taken out to
be shot over, three days after Is arrival, 1t
suddenly dropped dead on re field. 1t was
thought at FIRST that the animal had been
poisoned. Its stomach was anaIyZed, with
The result that no poison was found, but
some hard pieces Of half-bOiIed potatoes
were discovered. Tie plaintiff, on being
examined. stated that the dog was accus-
toned TO be fed on soup, milk and Spratts
biscuits, A veterinary surgeon stated that.
in his opinion, the dogs death was caused
by improper food, fed to it after being
sent on trial. A verdict for ten
guiHeaS, the value of the deg, was asked
for, on the ground that the dogs death was
caused by commissions brought on by being
improperly fed. The defendant said that
after he received the dog he discovered il
was suffering from worms. His brother, a
physician, stated that, in his opinion, the
dog died from an epiieptic lit, which might
have b en- brought on by worms. He aid
not think imperfectly boiled potato could
have caused the death OF a healthy dog.
The Judge dismissed the case. saying he be-
lieyed the dog died from an epileptlc fit
which might have been brought on by
eating potatoes. Bat he thought it had a
tendency to these fits. and could not find
from the evidence that the defendant had
been guilty of any negligence in his treat
ment Of tie matter.

mediums have held seances in the house

prove that the phenomena are caused by
