Euecs,opeersns I'm England.

An American who saw q good deal
Of the political excitement in England
during the recent elections and who
attended many Of the meetings says
that Chamberlain was the most inter.
esting Of the speakers. His compos-
ure on the platform in the face Of in
suits undreamed Of in American poll
tics was marvellous. Judas /" Rem
egadel' "Traitorl 7" " Toady p Evil
lain !" the crowd shouted, but the
worse the insult, the o virulent the
abuse, the more the orator seemed to
like it. He stood calmly before the
mob without q tremor. and although
every sentence was interrupted with
vilifcation he went on to the end Of
his address with as much calmness as
il he had been in the House Of Com
mons. As for his responsiveness, cit
was a sbell-game speech all the way
through and you were always seeing
the ball when it wasn't there" Poll

Four curious specimens Of humanity
have been confined in Norridgewock
Jail, accused OF sheep-stealing, writes
the Augusta (Me.) correspondent of
the New York Recorder. They we're
arrested in Brighton. They belong 10
a gang Of about forty persons who have
no homes, but who have lived until
recently near the Canadian line like
wild beasts in the Summer, and In
caves in the Winter. They wear little
or no clothing, and their backs, which
have long been exposed to the sun and
weather, are covered with q growth Of
hair fully three inches long.
1t is hard to make sense out Of their
conversation, although they have al
ready learned to swear so that they
are understood.
One Of the men, q giant in form, is
an idiot. His sides are full Of small
holes, made by o brad in the end Of q
stick when he has been yoked to an
OK. The day they were placed in jail
they had q fight among themselves,
and tore all the clothing off each
others bodies. The police are looking
after others Of this tribe of wild men.

II is difficult TO overestmate the
value Of q knowledge gained by the
cutting and tearing of living animals.
One interesting experiment lie to re-
move a dogs stomach and hen ascer-
tain how long he can live without it.
We also learn from the Journal Of
Zoophly that in Philadelphia there is
a DR.. Watson who experimnted upon
141 dogs by raising them ba height
and dropping them upon idges and
bars Of iron, in order to test the effect
Of the painful bruises and he break
ing Of backs which were the result.
There is also q DIR. Phelps who Sc
lected q number of dogs, and after
twisting their legs over their backs,
thus placing them in an excessively
cramped position, sealed them up in
plaster Of paris, which prevented their
obtaining any relief. What pleasant
neighbors this Watson and this Phelps
must have been as boysI They could
probably get as much fun out Of cats
and dogs then as now.
Life is looking forward TO the day
when these adult brutes will be treated
like other criminals. Life.

wife I'm Name Only.

The San Francisco Chronicle Of a
recent date has an account Of a decis-
ion recently rendered by Judge Heb
bard, which affects the happiness Of
Elizabeth Harrington, formerly Of Vir-
ginia City. II was in Virginia, Ne
vada, in August, 1868, that Elizabeth
Harrington and John Smith Monkey
assumed the relations OF husband and
wife without the formality Of q mar
rage. Mrs. Harrington was then a
milliner in Virginia, Nevada, and in
the enjoyment Of a nice business. Mrs.
Harrington believed she was John
Monkeys legal wife and laid claim to
his entire estate, amounting to up
ward of $100, 900. The decision finds,
however, the title of wife and widow
to have justly belonged to another
Elizabeth, whom Monkey deserted in
the East many years ago. To the wo-
man who was thus wronged Judge
Hebbard has now awarded one-half Of
Moxley's estate. The other one-half
is confirmed to the woman whom Mox-
ley deceived and wronged in Nevada,
and who is now decreed to be a wife
in name only.

jewel box, which contained 100000

livered to the bearer Of the order.
Mrs. Langtry returned home a few

jewels, when she learned that the box
had been delivered under the circum-

at once notified of the robbery, but up
to the present no trace has been found

Crftfcisfng

The London Times gives prominence
to a letter from Admiral Fitzgerald.
who says that Lord Dunraven must
expect his conduct in the matter Of the
Americas cup race will be severely
criticised, and compares unfavorably
with that OF Iselin.
His fair-minded countrymen, Fitz-
gerald continues, have cause to regret
the course OF Lord Dunraven, and all
true lovers Of the sport must regret
that Iselin's generous offer to resail
the second race was declined.
Technically, the Admiral says, Lord
Dunraven's refusal to sail On the third
day was right, but the question should
have been treated upon broader
grounds. The Americans throughout
have shown a true sporting instinct.
The impartial verdict Of nautical
history, the letter concludes, will say
Lord Dunraven failed to uphold the
best traditions of English yacht racing.

A s-s.r.l,pw announcement.

A French physician recently made
the startling announcement that he
had discovered the microbe Of old age.
OF course, the next step, which may be
more ~perplexing, to discover the anti
dote for the microbe, and then man
will have the secret of eternal youth,
and by observing sufficient precautions
against accident and incurable disease
still left on the list, he may, like hon
est old Joe Mero's candle, last forever.
This microbe is found in the blood Of
the aged, and when injected into the
arteries Of the young i. produces all
the phenomena of age. There is no
doubt hal DR.. Brissen then has the
genuine microbe, swean also that he
has found the serum which will exter-
inmate the germs OF the disease. Me-
thuselah was but q chicken to what

Preserve she Home Newspaper

w
An Exchange says: We have often
wondered how many OF our readers
we're thoughtful enough to preserve
their home newspaper. 1t is not likely
that one in a hundred does II. There
is nothing about his Office a publisher
prizes SO highly as the files or copies Of
his newspaper, and they are equally
as valuable to the subscriber. Con-
tanning, as it does, the happenings,
great and small, Of the locality in
which IL is located, and at the same
time giving many OF the important
events of the world, a newspaper
stands as q history which cannot be
replaced by any book or publication
whatever.
No better addition to the home Ii
brary could be made than the home
newspaper, neatly bound in volumes,
and what a pleasure it would afford
the coming generation to take down
the book from its shelf and eagerly
scar its pages for the home news when
grandfather or father was q boy.
What pleasure it would give mother
when she gets old and her eyesight
becomes dimmed, TO have her children
sit by the Preside and read the news
and gossip Of her girlhoOd days? If
the magazine is worthy Of preservation
the newspaper is doubly SO. Act on
this suggestion and your children will
thank you for 1t.

The Sacramento Record Union thus
gives the California Knights Templar a
sharp rap on their noisy pilgrimage to
Boston. 1t says: "The inappropriate
ness Of this noisy revelry on the part
Of the delegations from this State
should long since have been apparent
by the more modest and becoming
conduct OF other States. What other
State OF this Union has ever made or
attempted to make such an asinine
exhibition Of it's egotism and it's pro-
vincialism as to have the delegations
which have gone from this State to
conventions and other assemblages at
the East? II there Is any point to be
gained by this exhibition OF self-con-
sciousness its value would have sug-
gested itself to some other common
wealth. To be q citizen Of California
should be esteemed an honor; but
noisy rowdyism will not enforce upon
the world acceptance Of that fact"

The removal Of the mint would not
only effect Carson, but this entire sec
ton. This reminds us OF the Boston
port bill, when the entire city of Bos-
ton was punished for the acts Of a few
OF its citizens in throwing the tea over
board. And now it seems that all this
section Of country is to be punished on
account Of a few thieves stealing Uncle
Sans bullion. Carson has undoubt-
eddy enough honest people left yet to

be cheaper to bring some Of the honest

Learn to keep your own troubles to
yourself. The world is too busy to

TO stop croaking. II you cannot see
any good in the world, keep the bad to
yourself. Learn to hide your pains
and aches under spleasant smile. No
one cares to hear whether you have
the earache, headache or rheumatism.
Don't cry. Tears do well enough in
novels, but they are out Of place in real
life. Learn to meet your friends with
a smile. The good-humored man or
woman Is always welcome, but the
dyspeptic or hypochondriac Is not
wanted anywhere, and is nuisance
as well.-Detroit Tribune.

rested for kissing his wife. 1t was
shown in court that the woman had
not "peached" until several months
after the alleged kissing took place, and
had accepted several salutes from the
same party in the interim. The Court
held that any shock to her feelings
had had ample time to subside before
she had complained Of his attentions.
The Court also decided that kissing
was not an assault in Indiana anyhow

that the State Board Of Health has or
dered that every pupil attending the
public school at Carson who has not
been vaccinated within the past five
years shall be vaccinated at once. This
action is taken to prevent an unneces-

to comply with the order of the Board
will be prohibited from attending
school until the order shall have been
