The Judge Took a Hand.

They do some things well in Kan.
sas, notably summary justice An
instance occurred in the Whichita
district the other day. when Judge
Reed descended from the bench and
thrashed defendant in a suit for d.
vorce. The divorce bad been grant
ed and the custody OF a child OF three
years was to be settled. It was a
moment OF confusion, caused by the
fainting Of Mrs. Sanders, the plain
tiff, the divorced husband, seized the
child and attempted to carry it away.
The court baihff was not present and
the Judge sized up the situation by
leaving the bench and tackling the
abductor, who had to be choked and
forced into chair, when tie Judge
delivered the child into the custody
of the grandmother.

New Earache Cure.

DIR. Naegeli, a Swiss physician
recommends yawning as a remedy
for earache and related troubles. In
certain affections of the throat such
as acute pharypgitis, catarrh of the
eustachian tube, with the pain in the
ear, he obtains excellent results from
making the patients yawn several
times dly. 1t produces, it seems,
almost Instantaneous relief; the symp-
toms rapidly subside and the earache
disappears

unconstitutional. The people Of
Juniata county are not permitted &c
go into Perry county or any other
county to vote, because it suits their

THE THANKSGIVING BIRD.
How q Native American Bird Came to
BE Called Turkey

The following history of the origin of the
name turkey" as applied to the American
bird. Melagris galloparo. is given in a note
by the editor of George Washington's Jour
nal of Journey over the Mountains in
114I-S." where, under date of March %
lT4s. may be found his record. This morn
ing went out and surveyed five hundred
acres of land. and went down to one Mich
ael Stumps. the South Fork of the
branch (of the Potomac); on our way shot
two wild turkeys
The wild turkey-This is the largest and
finest of game birds. and. although native
to North America, il bears a foreign name
from the following circumstances. Speci-
mems Of the living bird as well as it's eggs
were sent by the early Jesuit missionaries
from America to the old world ON Spanish
and Portuguese ships, entering Europe
through Portugal 1t was as yet unnamed,
and was at first referred to by writers of
that period merely as the Jesuit bird g"
AS 1t became known, the demand
for the stranger was supplied chief
ly from Turkey. where it thrived
exceedingly we'll, and in time il
came to be Familiarity spoken of as 1.-THE
turkey" 1t gradually became tame, and
proving to be quite prolific was recog-
proving to be quite prolific. and was recog-
nized as a great addition to the Injuries of
the table This American bird speedily
became a favorite in every country to which
II was taken, and the great forests of game
preserves throughout Europe were gradual
ly stocked with II. and IL was also raised
as domestic fowl. Today the turkey, de-
rived, as stated, is found wild in all the
great forests of the old world, while the do
mesticated bird is aburdantly raised every
where in Europe for the markets. In an
cient times, we are told, the choicest game
fowls brought to a feast were pheasants
and peacocks. Emigrants to America
brought over with them the domesticated
bird to its native land, but under the bor-
rowed name, which II has kept Wash
ington, in his journal April Z, lI4s, records
the fact that one of his men that day had
killed a wild turkey weighing twenty
pounds. The domesticated bird. when per
mitted to attain the age of two or three
years, and being well-fed, often reaches
the weight of thirty pounds more. De
pendent upon and marking in a degree the
devastation of the late war and the en-
forced abandonment of plantations in the
section Of Virginia adjacent to the city of
Washington, IL is a fact worthy of record
that in 1876 the newspapers chronicled the
fact that the thickets and pine forests
which were grown up since the armies left
were tenated by wild deer and turkeys.
foxes &c. And to this day, December -,
1880, wild turkeys are brought TO the Wash
ington market killed in Fairfax county,
Virginia, within ten miles of Washington
city.
