Rebellion Crushed.

PRETORIA, June 13. - The Transvaal
troops have routed the rebels, whose chief
Magoeba, was killed'after severe fighting
The rebellion in South Pansburg is ended.
The campaign against the rebellious tribes
has lasted about month. The insurrec-
tion was precipitated by Chief Magato dis
missing the Transvaal commission from
this country. The Makatese tribes subse-
quently massed at their various strong
holds, being armed with modern rifles,
which they obtained from the adjacent
Portuguese coast territory. 1t was ex-
pected that the quelling Of the insurrec-
tion would take six months campaign.

Is interesting to read the following para
graph, written by DIR. Il. s. Clouston, SUI
perintendent of the Morningside asylum,
Scotland. He says:
zone terrible form of brain disease, with
mental symptoms, Is certainly increasing
That malady may be described rs break

bad to worse till 1t renders It's victim ut

any mitigation of this latter day curse has
been devised 1t Is disease of cities, OF

bauchery, Of life at high pressure COM
monty"
During the past year the asylums of
Scotland received $50 new cases, those OF
England /, 400, and those Of Ireland 52.
The asylum statistics of this country show
an even greater number.
In single asylum In New York, for ex-
ample-that at Ogdensburg-there were
among the $50 admissions 81 cases OF gen.
eral paresis. This would make the proper
tion of general paresis over 4 per cent.
Among seven state asylums, to which
1,942 patients were admitted In $780, there
were 60 cases of general paresis or little
over per cent. If per cent bc the gem
eral ratio for this disease in the state OF
New York, then the total number Of pa
retics among the 5000 insane would be
about $40. As matter of fact the num-
Der is much greater because the proportion
of this disease Is larger In tho New York
and Kings county asylums than In those
of the state at largo. But even If there
were but 1000 cases of general paresis
among the 100. 900 insane of this country
1t would be an extraordinary evidence of
the development of a disease which, in the
last century, was certainly not known,
even If it did exist.-Medical Record.

Go through q crowd Of people, pre-
ferably city people; examine the tired,
anxious, wasted faces; remember your
life and the lives Of the men whom You
have known intimately; recall the vio-
lent deaths. the suicides of which you
have heard, and ask yourself the reason
Of all this death, suffering and despair.
And you Will see, however strange it
may appear, that the cause of nine -tenths
of human suffering is the present life of
the world; that this suffering is useless
that ii could be avoided, and that the
majority of men are martyrs to worldly
ideas
Recently ON a rainy Sunday crossed
the market near the tower of Soukharev
in a street car. For third of mile the
car made its way through dense crowd
that closed in again behind us. From
morning till evening these thousands OF
men, most of them hungry and in rags,
iostle each other in the mud, dispute,
deceive and hate each other. The same
thing goes ON in the markets of Moscow
and other cities These men will pass
their evenings in the wine shops and
afterward will seek their holes and cor
ners. Sunday is their best day. Monday
they begin again their accursed exist
ence.
Think of the existence of these men,
Of the situation which they abandon
and of that which they choose. Consider
the labor to which they give themselves,
and you will see that they are martyrs.
All have left their fields, their houses,
their fathers and brothers, often their
wives and children. They have renounc-
ed everything and come to the city in
order to acquire that which the world
considers necessary All of them are
there, from the operative, the coachman
and the seamstress TO the wealthy mer-
chant, the Office holder and the wives of
all of them, to say nothing of the tens
of thousands of unfortunates who have
Lost everything and live ON scraps and
brandy in the free lodging houses Go
through this crowd; watch poor and
rich alike; look for a man who says
that he is satisfied and believes that he
possesses what the world deems necessa-
ry. You will not find one in thousand.

BOTH PAPERS WERE USEFUL.

The Fortunate Result of a Tennessee JUS
tice Mixing His Documents.
Bill Wright was justice of the
peace, and also an absentminded man,
whose wife was as able an orator as
Xantippe.
Bill used to serve all his processes
himself and to save time would sign the
marriage certificates in blank and deliv-
er a number to the parson.
One day Bill had a process to serve
away up in the mountains on a semibar-
barous recluse, who was sued for dam
ages for some disdeeds, and Bill thought
he would deliver few of the certiti-
Gates to the parson.
So, sticking both packages of papers in
the same pocket, he mounted his horse
and rode of.
Reaching the minister's, he stopped
and chatted awhile, and, after deliver
ing his papers, he started off again and
took the road to the mountains.
The parson had wedding that day,
one of the parties being notorious horse
thief from an adjoining county. When
the ceremony was over, the parson Sc
lected certificate from the bundle and
unrolled it sufficiently to sign his name.
On handing it to the man the latter
opened it, and his eye grew wild as he
read instead Of a marriage certificate a
warrant of arrest, signed by both the
justice of the peace and by the parson.
He feared some trap, so surrendered
himself to custody.
When the justice reached the noun
tain side, he took out the paper to read
it and Immediately saw its nature, but,
maintaining his self possession, he re-
cited the form of summons, which he
fortunately remembered.
He then returned and found the horse
thief in Jail and went and saw the par

monial felicity in mind, that both pa

lay Up money
The real inventor Of the locomotive
never realized cent from his invention
His name was Oliver Evans He was
born in Delaware in 1856 and spent all
his life perfecting inventions which
were destined to bring him nothing but
more poverty. He was the original in
ventor Of the high pressure engine used
in locomotives. the only kind that could
be employed to advantage in this form
of transportation. but realized nothing
for his idea.
His application of the notion 20 both
land and water .power was somewhat
novel.
In 1904 the municipality of Philadel-
phia called for bids for the dredging of
the river and the cleaning Of the docks.
Evans put in bid lower than any of
his competitors. and when it was ac-
cepted determined TO build a steamboat
70 do the work.
He fitted out a scow with steam en-
CINE, building both the engine and the
scow in his own workshop.
When the boat was ready to be launch
ed, Evans determined to give the peo-
pie of Philadelphia an object lesson in
mechanics. so he put the boat ON wheels,
fitted up a push wheel behind, set his
engine TO work and propelled the boat
through the streets to the river in the
midst of am open mouthed throng. not a
few of whom had dim idea that he
ought to be arrested for witchcraft.
When the boat reached the bank of
the river, the wheels and axles We're TAX
en- of, the craft was launched, fitted
out with other wheels and made to do
the work of dredging the harbor.
So far as the invention of mechanical
devices. went, Evans had splendid
genius, but when dollars and cents came
up for consideration he was a mere
child. and even allowed himself to be
cheated cut of the money that was due
him for cleaning the Philadelphia har-
