Oddities Found fin . British Post Onice
 During tho Past Year.
 The severer duties of the post office are frightened from time to time by sundry "curious incidents, :" of which few are recorded in the annual report. In the pres ent instance, says an exchange, we are told of n letter found at Dumbarton addressed to: ''The manager of the pub lie house with Walkers sign," at Vol verhampton. Some odd particulars were added, which probably furnished the requisite clew, the result being that the missive reached the person for whom it was intended.
 In another case postal card was in- closed to a provincial postmaster to be delivered to the writer's nephew" The individual was to be identified by the possession of n cork leg and "a bright projecting set of teeth" The description suf1iced, though tho nephew" had to be found among a population of more than seventy thou sand. The usual eccentricities have also presented themselves.
 Among these was parcel containing five hundred leeches from abroad. Other consignments included live snakes, frogs, tame rats and live To- cust from the cape. A cardboard box containing kitten with Q feeding-bot- tie was sent by parcel post and was duly shot from the mailbag apparatus near Penrith into the express train.
 The kitten suffered from the shock but recovered in a couple of days. More prosaic, but no less interesting, was the discovery of two one hundred-pound Bank of England notes in letter hay ing no address and affording no clew to the person it was intended for or the sender.

PERlLous FISHING. ,l,
How Lazy Englishman Was Cured O
 His DesAre for Easy NHethodn.


 His Desire for Easy Methods.
 Dynamite-fshing = the killing of a fish by exploding dynamite bombs under or upon tho water, and then gathering the stunned or killed fish which are brought to the surface-is so generally condemned that there will not be much sympathy for the human performer in tho following tragedy, recorded in some of the English news papers: A man in Bideford. in the southwest ern part of England, had dog which he had carefully trained to bring to him whatever he had thrown into the water. Early one morning this man went out to a pond near his place, carrying with him dynamite bomb with which he intended to make Q haul" of the trout in the pond. He lighted the fuse, and threw the bomb into the water.
 Unluckily he had either failed to notice or else had forgotten that his dog followed him. On the instant the dog sprang into the water, swan to the floating bomb, seized it and brought 1t ashore, to place it at his masters feet. The mnn tried to command the dog to drop the terrible object, but the animal showed the excellence of his training by clinging to it and rapidly approaching the shore.
 Then the lazy fisherman took to his heels. The dog came ashore and followed him at a more rapid rate than the man could run, the dynamite still in its mouth and the fuse burning.
 It Q wild race for a high wall not far away. The dog gained every instant. The man was In despair. for he knew the bomb would explode presently with murderous force. He reached the wall, and scrambled over 1t just in time. for at that instant, as the dog came to the foot of the wall. the dynamite ex- ploded.
 The unfortunate dog was blown to atoms, but the man escaped with a se- wore shaking up and a disposition to fish in the future with hook and line.

Tho Law on Theroneutics.

A bill has been introduced in the United States senate which indicates that the necessity of state regulation of the practice of certain branches in modern therapeutics has become rccog- nized. It is not long since hypnotism was found to be capable of such abuse that law was passed in France to re- strain its indiscriminatc or undue prac- tice, and in the same way the bill in question seeks to prohibit elcctro-maS- netization, mesmerism and hypnotism as applied to human beings, except un- der legitimate conditions. In brief, it provides that my person who, any where within the jurisdiction of the United States, shall apply n current of electricity to n person for the purpose of unduly affecting him shall be guilty of crime punishable by death. The bill also provides n heavy penalty in ease person who may have knowledge of the application of such current fails to notify the proper authorities of the eact.
