f IN the New York Herald.
The bestowal of l.tckkey is sacred
trust not always appreciated by tenants
1t is the commonest thing In the world for
a boarder to walk off with his door key
thus retaining to himself the power to en-

tenants hold on to their keys with any such
possibility in view, but for the safety of
herself and future tenants the landlady
should be more particular than she aver

entry to her household
A couple of rights ago young man ar

With man and revolver in pursuit he did
find the landladys door, only TO be con-
fronted by strange woman, who immedi-
ately went into Mysteries.
Then every other woman in the house
raised her voice in Mysteries, and more men
with revolvers gathered in the passage
ways until things began to look pretty blue
for the young man.
At last the final man, armed to the teeth
joined the boarders, and as he did So the

On account of the absence of many of the

The investt>t,fsns or Prof 2weisn1an mn
have done rtsre tosAolve the problem How
death came. into the WORLD than those of
any other Twins man 1t is generally as
sumed that death Is associated with all
forms of life, but this is not really the case
The lower FORMS of life, for example may
be said to have a perpetual existence, and
not to be subject to death; for in unicellu-
lar reproduction life is practically endless.
In the case OF higher forms of life death is
universal, and for very natural reason
The aim of nature is the perpetuation of
the species, not of the individual, and when
creatures have. as in the case of certain in
sects reproduced themselves once for all,
they have no further need of existence.
Creatures that nurse their young, like
mammals, and produce them slowly. have
need of longer life, the species would
quickly be eXterminated; but there is no
reason why the individual having per-
formed It's duty in relation to the species
should continue to exist, since its existence
then becomes superiority. Between null
ticellular and unicellular existence there is
therefore, the marked difference that
whereas the former dies when it has repro
duced itself and so perpetuated its species,
the latter goes on perpetually reproducing
itself-one cell growing out of another with
out cessation. To Weismann we owe the
knowledge of how it is that death inter
venes when multicellular existence develops
from unicelular The change Is effected by
a differentiation of the individual-or So
matic-and the reproductive cells. The
former have lost the power of multiplied
ton and reproduction and consequently
died. while the latter have preserved it.

SKiNNER'S VETERANS.
They Had Their Scamy Side, But tho

They Had Their Seamy Side, But the
 Enemy Had Never Seen It.
 Of the brave old confederate officer who lately died, Maj. F. G. Skinner, Gen. Beauregard used to tell an anus ing story. Prince Napoleon and Count Mercier, with their suite, had been visiting within the confederate lines during our civil war. and riding along the Fairfax turnpike near Centerville, Va. they came upon Skinner and body of southern veterans, experi- menting with some new tactics. Skin- ner left his men in charge of q junior officer, and approached the party.
 He had been educated in France un- der the patronage of Marquis de La Fayette, who was an old friend of his fathers, and Prince Napoleon. who res ceived him warmly, made some remark about the soldierly appearance of his troops. Just at that moment, as it hap pened, an evolution brought the men into such position that they turned their backs upon the distinguished visitors. The poor fellows had been through hard campaign and uniforms were too expensive to be laid by for small cause. Their trousers showed the worst effects of their usage. being generally worn through and un- patched. The prince could not re- press smile as his eye ran along the line of big and little holes. But Maj. Skinner was equal to the emergency. With characteristic French wit, he said. with gesture toward his men:
 ''Messieurs, vous voyez la la partie de nos soldats que lennemi n'a pas en- core vue, ct j'espere ne verra jamais. (Gentlemen, you see there the side of our soldiers which has never yet been, and hope never may be. seen by the enemy. Kate Fields Washington.
