4 Temperance Incident.

The notice of the Centennial of the
Baptist church in Iiycrmore, in the RE
POTTER IA few weeks ago. of which Kew.
Sylvanus Boardman was once the pas
tor, brought to my recollection the fol-
lowing little story: Elder Boardman re-
moved to New Sharon and was living
there when the Temperance reforma-
ton was making good progress. and
temperance societies were instituted IN
almost every town, 1t was charac-
tcristic of the Baptist denomination to
be very conservative and slow to adopt
new measures and innovations. Elder
Boardman was of this kind, and though
strictly temperate he feared that evil
might result from the temperance socie-
ty, that it might react unfavorably ON
the church and lead to "cntangling al
lianccs.
One cold winter day number of per-
sons. as was customary, were gathered
around the fire in the village store.
Among them Was Elder Boardman. The
subject of temperance having been
brought up and his opinion being asked
he calmly and quietly expressed his
views. There WAS one man present who
took no part in the conversation but was
II
he entirely mistook the scope of the
Elders remarks. When there was a
pause in the conversation this man adj
vanced II few steps towards the liquor
end of the counter, liquors were kept in
stores generally in those days then
turning towards the Elder, he said
Come Elder Boardman. you are not one
of those bigoted men who think it such Il
AL, ,t.iI in 81,
while, come and take glass with me.
OF course the invitation was declined.
After the man had gone out the Elder
said that when it had come to such Il
pass that he should be invited to drink
glass of rum by a regular topper. in a
public place, it was high time for him
to declare himself, and make known
which side he was on. At their next
meeting he Joined the Temperance Socie-
ty.

Certain grasshoppers make a sound
when flying that is like Il watchmln's
rattle--clackety cack, very rapidly re-
pcatcd. There are also some moths and
butterflies which have voices. The
deaths head" moth makes Il noise when
frightened that strikingly resembles the
crying of Il young baby. How it is pro-
duced is not known, though volumes
have been written on the subject. The
mourning cloak" BUTTERFLY dark
species with light border in its wings
makes cry of alarm by rubbing its
wings together,
The katydids, crickets, grasshoppers
and other musical insects are all eXag-
gcrated in the tropics, assuming giant
forms. Thus their cries are proportion
ately louder. There is an East Indian
cicada which makes Il remarkably loud
noise. 1t is called by the natives
''dundub," which means drum. From
this name comes that of the genus which
is. known as dundubia. This is one of
the few scientific terms derived from the

SHE GOT A BARGAIN.
Better Than That. She Knew How to Use 1t
After Getting 1t.

A lady surrounded the bargain coun-
tsr of one of the big retail stores on
Sixth avenue the other day and cap
tured fragment of china silk with
which she wanted to make a screen.
To accomplish this required degree of
strategy and physical exertion sufficient
to equip a college eleven for active sery-

AT HALF RATE IN A BOX.


OF NneAn
The Burlington operates a line to
Sheridan, Wy, at which point the
Adams Express company has an Office.
About two weeks ago Liam called upon
Mr. Smith, depot agent for the Adams
Express company III Omaha, and in
quired the cost of shipping box,
weighing about go pounds, to Sheri-
dan He was informed that it would
be about so.
A few minutes before train time an
express wagon brought the box to the
depot 1t was unloaded, weighed,
properly marked for shipment, and inn
mcdiately placed ON board the express
car, preparatory to taking a $50 mile
journey.
The box was about 6 feet long and ,
feet wide and weighed 213 pounds
The express charges were S12.l5 and
were paid by man whose identity the
express company is now attempting to
establish. The train duly arrived III
Sheridan and the box, among other
goods, was unloaded from the express
car and stored in the depot and the
doors locked.
In about half an hour Agent Wood
was informed that the express Office
door was aiar, and the belief was voiced
that burglars We're at work robbing
the place. The agent at once secured
the assistance of several men, and after
arming themselves they entered the
express office Nothing was found dis
turhed except the Omaha box. 1t was
empty The lid had been forced from
the box, and the contents were gone.
When the box was critically examined
il was found fiat no instrument had
been used from the outside to loosen the
cover,
Upon the inside at one end was plain
~ to he seen the print of man S feet.
The size of the box. the weight and the
footprints were sufficient to convince
the agent it had certainly contained a
human being, and that upon his arrival
at tine end of the journey he simply
opened the box, walked over to the door,
unholtcd it and disappeared.
There are many theories advanced as
to the purpose of the man i'll the box.
Some believe that arrangements were
on foot to rob the express company,
either on the train or at the Sheridan
Office, while others think that the occu-
pant of the hox was an escaping crimi-
nal.
/ In any event, he beat the railway
company out of half of fare-for the
fare for a human being alive or dead.

grasshopper, Il led IA gay lifc--eaiing

Our plan is very different said the
bee. We work hard in summer to lay

but those who do nothing bur drink and

no honey to give to you, so be on with
Yourself. Remember that 'wiful waste

The poor grasshopper limped away,
resolving to be industrious the next
year; but he persisted miserablv in the
first frost, and never had time to put his
good resolution into practice. An aged

LIE PERSPlRED BLOOD.


SuUeTS rom IetefnlHi
Edward Dunn, 80 years old, employ
ed in a printing establishment at 26
Vandewater street, and apparently per
fectly healthy, went to the Chambers
Street hospital the other day, blood ex-
uding from the pores of tho skin of his
arm and face. He said he must have
lost much blood, but wasn't weakened
by it.
DR.. Taylor was puzzled over the phe-
'nomenon and said he hardly knew how
to treat it. There was evidently no
artery severed, as the blood did not
squirt out violently, as it would have
done in that case. While the doctor
was trying to decide what he could do
for Dunn, the curious flow stopped of
itself. 1t had lasted about an hour,
Dunn returned to work
Superintendent Lake of the hospital
told me last evening that Dunn 5 all
ment was exceedingly rare and that he
might enjoy the distinction of figuring
in medical annals as one of few suf-
ferers from what was generally known
as petechial hemorrhage.
1T is really an emulation of blood
from the pores of the skin, said Mr..
Lake. "That is the generally accepted
explanation of the perspiration of blood
of the Saviour. Medical opinion does
not seem to have as yet come to an
agreement as to the cause of the mani
festation. New York Letter.
