a ncartrcnding Example OF che sunoring
In the Interior ~ italy.
The New York Suns Rome correspond
ont writes that order has been noininally
restored IN Italy and Sicily, but It IS
doubtful II permanent peace con be Sc
cured. The troubles viii probably recur
as soon ns the extra troops are removed.
The only chance Of pacifying the people
is by establishing relief works, but the
government is In such sore financial
straits that the money cannot be spared,
although their cost would enable a consid-
cradle reduction In military expenditure.
Things will doubtless improve in the
spring, but meanwhile the poverty aud
suiferings Of the populace are simply APP
palling. Misery reigns everywhere, and
in the remoter rural districts men, wom-
en- and children are dyingdaily Of actual
hunger.
An idea Of what is going on In the in
terror Of Italy may be gathered from the
fact, officially admitted, that 200 per-
sons, the entire population Of the village
Of Roghudi Calabria, suddenly arrived
at Cittanova on Tuesday, ragged and
shoeless, the younger men carrying the
old folks and the women their children.
Many were in a pitiable state Of exhaus-
ton. Several women had dead children
In their arms, and two or three old men
had died on the way. They declared
that they had left the village because I'M
less they left they would die Of utarva-
ton. There was not a scrap Of food in
the place when they left, and nothing
was growing on the land.

A RARE OCCURRENCE.

MIR. Eoksnrodo's Eel Catch Almost Impair
ansisd In tho Annals OF Fishing.
A remarkable haul Of cells was made
the other day by Cosmos Eckenrode, who
was fishing along the Tulpehocken.
There is a variety OF cells known Is the
tandem eel, which is very seldom found
in this state, though common In the west
A popularity of this variety is that they
travel, when migrating, single ale, about
six inches apart, and matatain that dis
lance exactly during the time Of their
progress. II one Of tho lot shoots ahead
too rapidly, the ons following immedi-
ately grasps him by the tail in order to
drag him back TO his proper place IN the
hne. They appear to have a remarkable
instinct for distance, and the variation
Of an inch will cause the rear eel to Ak
ercise his authority 10 put the brakes on
the ahead.
While Mr.. Lckenrode was fishing he
hooked ono Of tho travellers, a very re-
mArkable circumstance, as they seldom
bite while migrating. As soon as he had
hooked ID he Of coarse gave a haul on the
line, which caused this particular eel to
anOOI hnEdNs Au was fA~4A-AAatlA4
grasped by the M following, and IS
that a likewise shot ahead the next ono
did the same, 50 that whom Mr.. Ecken-
rode began 10 haul ont he found a solid
rope of cells. Dropping his rod and line,
he grasped the living rope and began to
haul in hand over hand. he kept haul
ing in and piliag mp tho cells until he
was utterly exhausted, when he was
obliged to stop and cut the connection.
He quickly ran for assistance, and a
number Of the neighbors came to help
him take caro Of his rare catch. When
they were al gathered up and loaded on
wagons, 1t was found that he had $40
pounds, About $50 worth we're sent to
fhe Reading market, and the rest were
distributed among his neighbors.
The news Of his remarkable catch has
spread all over the upper part OF the
county, and a great many fishermen have
been ~endeayoring 10 repeat II, but with
out success, since, according to natural,
lists, an occurrence of this sort Is N Of
the rarest in fishing. Reading Herald.

a case Of a boy being killed by a bug
that gnawed his heart deeply interests
local physicians. Samuel Lennox, z
years old, died a few days ago with very
peculiar symptoms. The boy had been
sick for some time. but his case was diff
ferent from any other. A post norton
examination revealed that part Of the
heart had been eaten away by ar insect,
causing death. Nearly a year ago the
boy drank water from a brook and swal-
lowed a water bug. The insect ate its
way through the boys stomach and then
began devouring the heart, the boy
bleeding to DEATH

Some of Reynolds methods were Pc
culiar. He usually painted his sitters
from their reflection in a mirror and
not from a direct view. He always re-
NAMED standing while at work, and he
rarely signed a portrait.
One notable exception, however, was
made in the case of his magnificent por-
trait Of Mrs. Siddons as tho Tragic
Muse, which was painted when the
master was GO years old and when Mrs.
Siddons was 90. The great actress, fail
ing at first to recognize a sort Of en-
broidery which the artist had added to
the edge of her robe, soon perceived that
it contained the words, Joshua Rey-
nolds pinx.t, 1884" whereupon Sir
Joshua assured her that he would be
proud to have his name go down to pos
terity on the hem of her garment Be-
fore commencing this picture the ar
fist, instead Of posing the sitter himself,
requested Mrs. Siddons to give him her
own idea of the Tragic Muse, and she
Immediately assumed the pose in which
the picture was painted.

One of The Disagreeable Duties.

One of the most disagreeable
tasks that comes to the hands of a
newspaper man is the reminding
people of their faults. The fault
with most of our people is "wI!d
cat" dealing. By this is meant
people who patronize firms and men
whom thep have never seen, and no
one else for that matter, business
men, so called, firms of which they
know absolutely nothing. Some
people send off their good honest
money, worth one hundred cents
on the dollar, and receive In return
an inferior grade of goods worth
perhaps ten or fifteen cents, actual
value. 1t Is the duty of the news
paper man to warn people against
these anne firms and individuals,
but he does not expect any thanks
for doing so. On the contrary he
takes and gets all the abuse. This
year, especially now, should the
rural districts look ont for sharpers
and trlcksters of all kinds. Buy of
and p~atronize home merchants,
men whom you know, men. who
have trusted you and helped you
out in time of need. Now is the
time to stay right by them. They
are the men who build upyour town
of which You are so proud. Every
cent that you send out of the coun-
try for goods to dealers in other
cities is just that much money
wasted, ana you have robbed your
neighLOr, your merchant, yourself
and all. Bear in mind that not
one cent is sent back to your COM
munity which is benefit to any,
one. Therefore be careful who you
deal with. Give your trade to your
home merchants and you will de-
rive a benefit from it. Beware of
these slim-slam one horse concerns
that advertise on hand bills and
never even 60 nea your local county
paper. Watch your local county
paper, read it, take it, subscribe
for it, and be happy and at peace
with the w~orld.-Howarden CIowa)
