Der OF Deputies has just ended at Paris.
Just previous to the trial a report was
circulated tllt bomb with burned fuse

Justice, in which the trial took place. was
surrounded by guards, and nobody was
allowed to pass through their ranks unless

guarded by policemen.
The opening proceedings were of purely
formalnature. The prisoner admitted, in re-
ply to the questions of the Public Prosecutor
that he bad been several times in prison for
theft. and he exclaimed f1ercely:
The just conditions of society were re-
sponsibe for what you are pleased to term
rObberies."
The prisoner said that his ticket or admfs-

WINTER CUTTINGS.

In the winter time cuttings from
shrubs and small fruits should be
made for early spring planting. In
this way trees and shrubs can be
greatly increased in numbers, and
new, large orchards can be given an
early start without any expense other
than the labor required to make the
cuttings and plant them, Currarts,
gooseberries and ornamental shrubs
should be grown upon nearly all farms.
The various methods adopted by
florists to increase the number of their
shrubs and trees are all simple, such
as the soft wood cuttings in the green
house in the winter and Iayering in
the summer, but the hardwood propa-
CATION IN fall or spring is the method
that should be considered at this time
OF the year. If the cuttings are to be
planted out in the spring they may be
made any time this winter. Where
winters are severe the planting should
never take place until spring, but
where the weather is not very cold it
does not matter much whether the
paintings are made in the fall, winter
or spring. The cuttings that are
gathered in the winter should be tied
IN loose bundles, and be set in damp
sand in frost proof cellar where they
will keep until needed in the spring.
AS soon as the soil dries out in the
spring they should be planted.
The young shoots of last season
should be selected for these cuttings,
and they should be cleft from the
main bushes SO that they will be about
one foot long. These are nearly all
buried in the spring in deep, rich soil,
leaving only four inches of the TIPS
above the ground. The soil must be
trampled down firmly around them.

Old.Time Games.

1t is curious to note how some OF
the games of the early age have been
handed down to the present time.
The game, for instance, known to
most of US as "Odd and Even" was
also favorite with the young
Egyptian, and many of the little
counters that he used are still pre-
served in the British Museum. There
is also the game of draughts, which
was played on a checkered board in
the earliest times. The poor children
were content with draughtsmen and
boxes made of rough pieces of clay,
but the richer ones usually had beau
tifully carved iron-headed draughts-
men and boxes.
The young Greeks, too, were well
provided with toys and games for their
amusement. The toys were chiefly
dolls made of baked clay, the arms
and legs being joined with a string,
and therefore movable. They had a
fayorite game called 'chytrinda,"
which has been preserved through
many ages, and is now played by boys
of to-day under the well-known name
of "puss III the corner" In France
the game is called ''quartre coins" or
four corners. Both in the old game
and the modern version five players
are required, one occupying each of
the four corners, while the fifth player
stands i'll the middle. In ancient
Greece he wore an earthen pipkin on
his head and was called 'Pot;" in
France at the present day he is the
'Nigaud, or simpleton, and by us he
is called "PEss" To guess the num-
Der of fingers another heldup was also
a favoritc amusement, and this, too, is
frequently played at the present time.
SO you see how carefully the character
of the amusements and the playthings
of the very early ages have been main
tanned in the toys and games in use to-
day.-Newcastle Chronicle.

Several reports were read showing
that the funds are being reduced to a
state where il behooves the organiza-
ton to practice the most rigid econO-
my, and on motion Of Mr.. Cohen it was
decided to dispense with the services Of
n clerk, the position having been filled
during the past two months by George
B. Thompson. For the services rem .
dersd Mr.. Thompson was, on motion OF
Mr.. Gibbons, allowed a compensation
Of $50 a month.

we're appointed a committee to audit
the accounts of the societies.
On motion Of Mr.. Thomas, $500 was
appropriated to the park fund, as asked
for in the report Of Mr.. Moore, chair
man of the employment committee.
Much trouble is experienced in keep
ing an exact record Of the eSpendi
lures, owing to the fact that orders
given out for work are not in many in
stances accounted for. To remedy this
trouble Mr.. Ruane suggested that the
orders bear the words, Not good after

moved that a rubber stamp be pur-
chased with which to prefix such n
declaration to the orders. The mo-
ton prevailed.
The report of Mira. Duggan, the
