CHURCH organizations can save more souls in one day in Tucson than they can save in thousand years in China, and at ten thousand times less expense, by providing few able bodied mission aries to keep the streets free from broken glass. The easiest way it appears to part ownership with broken bottle is to heave it on the streets where blcy cie tires can be used in atomatizipg 1t and souls lost in anathematizlng not only the broken glaes itself, but also the parties who made such things possible. Don't throw broken glass in the streets and you stand much better chance Of having old Peter invite you in than otherwise.

Tna French Ceit.

The common belief is that the French are Celtic race; but, according to M- Riviere, the Celt is not even the largest element il that rlixed race called the French It i5 probable that they de- rive much of their artistic faculty from their savage ancestors in the stone age, who carved quite artistic designs with a flint burin on bones. The genuine Celt does not appear to be particularly artistic. The Auvergnats are almost pure Celt, and yet their reputation mainly rests upon their capacities as as cabrnen. The true Cclt, E. Riviere asserts, is chiefly to be found in belt drawn across France from Savoy to Low Brittany. and he has not been identified at all in the United Kingdom.

RAILROAD ACCIDENTS.

The Inter State Commerce commis- sion has issued an abstract of their re- port for the year ending June 30, 1891, n which the following interesting chap ter on railroad accidents occur:
 During the year 1923 railway employ ss were killed and 23, 3,422 were injured, as compared with 2727 killed and 3l, ,729 injured in 1893. This marked decrease in cssuality Is in part due to the decrease in the number of men employed, aud the decrease in the volume of business handled. The increased use of autom- Rtic appliances on railway equipment also may have rendered railway employ ment less dangerous and It may be that the grade of efficiency of employees has been raised.
 The number of passengers killed was 324, an increase of 9, and the number injured was 3304, decrease of @. Of the total number ot fatal casualties to railway employees, 25l were due to coup ling and uncoupl!ng cars, 439 to falling from trains and engines, 50 to overhead obstructions, l45 to collisions, l0S to de railments, and the balance to various other causes not easily classified. To show the ratio Of casualty, it may be stated that l em- ployes was killed out of every 426 in service, and injured out of every 8 employed. The trainmen perform the most dangerous service, l out of every 156 employed having been killed and out Of every F having been injured.
 The ratio of casualty to passengers is in striking contrast to that of railway employees, passenger having been kill ed out each ,9l2 6lS carried, or for each 44.lO3, 22S miles travelled, and 1 injured out of each 204, PAS carried, or for each 4,1O9, VI miles travelled. A distribution of accidents to the territorial groups exhibits the diversity in the relative safety of railway employment and of railway travel in the different sections of the country.

McClure's Magazine for July.

Most readers will be surprised to learn, as any one may from an excellent illus trated article in McClure's magazine for July, how the telegraph has now crept into the remotest crannies of the world, and is transmitting its hundreds of mill lions of messages year at constantly lessening cost in money and trouble to the public. The same number contains a dramatic chapter from the history of T8mmany-the autocrstic reign of
 Tweed, with all it's barbarIc and illicit spIendors, splendors maintained by the theft of untold millions of public money. An article by Sir Robert Ball, professor of astronomy in the University of Cam bridge, England, shows that recent sci entific discoveries tend to support the theory that other planets, as we'll as the earth, maintain life. Hsmlin Garland describes tae home and studio life of Edward Kemeys, and relates, mainly in Mir. Kemeys' own words, how, without instruction and under the irresistible urgency of natural bent, he became a sculptor of frontier life and wild ami
 msls. Portraits of Kemeys and repro duetions of his chef sculptures illus
 trate the paper. Cy Wsrman, the poet engineer, describes a ride on the loco mnt:-- of a Euudca and Parie oSproes Cleveland Moffett supplies, from the Pinkerton srcbieves, a history of the stealing of an express parcel containing S41 ,000, and the discovery of the thief and the recovery of moet of the money after years of search and pursuit. A noem addressed by Edmund Gosse to Robert Louis Stevenson, which reached Stevenson but day or two before his death; Stevenson's rare address of thanks to the Samoan chiefs who built him a road, and his will; and several eY- cellent short stories, among them one by 70" and ore by Stanley J. Weyman are the other noteworthy features of this numbe. The publishers announce with this pumber reduction of price to ten cents copy, or one dollar 8 year.

The Effect of Lime on the Hay Crop.

At the Maryland Experiment Sta
ton stone lime, at the rate of 20 bush
els to the acre, was applied to a piece
of land just before planting corn, two
years ago. The gain in the crop was
81 bushels to the acre. The field
was then seeded to wheat and sown
with clover and grass. The increase
in the wheat crop was S.5 bushels to
the acre. This year the yield of hay
in the lined field was 1862 pounds to
the acre; whilst on an unlimed field
adjoining the yield was only 1891
pounds to the acre, thus giving an in
crease of l,27l pounds, or 81 per cent.
The director remarks further that from
present appearances there will be a
still greater difference in the yield of
hay another year, as on the unlimed
field weeds are rapidly taking the
place of the timothy (there being no
clover:) whilst on the lined field there
are few weeds and the sod is constant
ly improving.-Southern Planter.

Married on Horseback.

There wasa great gathering at Kim

ago the West Virginia Bridge Com
pany, OF Point Pleasant, which had
the contract for building the new steel
bridge over Thirteen Mile Greek, an
nounced that it would present house
keeping outfit to any couple who would
be married on the bridge OIL the day it
was finished. w. w. Smith and Miss
Mary A. Seaman decided to accept
the conditions, and, accordingly, were
there, with Rev. Jackson Seaman, a
brother of the bride, ready for the cere-
mony. The event had been we'll ad-
vertised by word of mouth among the
country folksra hundreds upon hun
dreds had gathered upon horseback
and in wagons to witness the event
and to celebrate the opening of the
new bridge. The bride and groom
were on horseback, and with minister
and representatives Of the civil author
ties rode to the center Of the bridge
where the bride was given away by W
H. Howard, of the bridge company
and Rev. Mr.. Seaman tied the knot
After the ceremony the bridal couple
were Justify cheered by those present
after which, sitting on their horses al
the entrance to the bridge, they held
their reception. The bridge was final
ly cleared and the dance began, after
which the assembled multitude escorted
Mr.. and Mrs. Smith to their new home
where they helped set them up house
keeping.

been ascribed to Ctesibius of Alexan-

period when this instrument was in
troduced into the churches of Western

Italian is supposed to have been the
first to adopt it about the year go.
1t is stated as an actual fact that
all the people residing in Letcher coun-
ty, KY, are related to one another,
directly or indirectly. The reason Of
this is found in the remarkable Webb
family. There are three brothers and
three sisters of the original family,
all living near Sergent, and they have
no fewer than 74S descendants living
in the neighborhood. The eldest mem
Der Of the family, Lettie, is 50 years
old. and has twenty children, ninety
FIVE grandchildren, and fifty great
grandchildren. Polly, aged so has
sixteen children and almost as many
grandchildren and great-grandchil-
dren as Lettie. The youngest, Wiley,
has the fewest descendants. He is 20
years old and has eleven children, fifty
four grandchildren, and fifteen great
grandchildren.
The returns to the department of
internal affairs of the steam railroads
operating in Pennsylvania show that
1888 persons were killed and l0,607
injured by them during the fiscal year
ended June 80, 1895. Of these killed
30 were passengers. 447 employees, and
l,l07 other persons. The passengers
injured numbered 6l2, employes 9,346,
other persons 1919. From the re-
turns of all roads to the department
it is found that to every 432 employees
there is one killed, and to every %
one injured. Among passengers the
ratio is one killed out Of 4 1926, 718 and
one injured out Of 2O4.977. The Lake
Shore and Michigan Southern carried
4,523,O94 passengers during the past
year without injury.

Hog Cholera.

This dread disease is more common
this season than for several years past.
In some sections of the country it
amounts almost to an epidemic. The
reports are particularly bad from the
two largest hog producing States, Il
linois and Iowa. The disease prevails
In seventy-two counties of the latter
State and ffty-four of the former.
Many farmers have sold their droves
of pigs in order to get something out
of them before the cholera reaches
them, so that there is likely to be a
scarcity of hogs few months hence
as compared with the demands of feed
ing. This should cause rise in the
market price were it not for the great
abundance of corn, which is likely to
aid in keeping values down.
1t has been generally held that hog
cholera is superinduced by close, filthy,
unventilated quarters, by heavy
diet of one kind of food, by want of
sufficient succulent or laxative food to
prevent constipation, by feeding swlll
that has reached or nearly reached the
state of putridity, by overcrowdlng,
want of exercise, etc. 1t has been
believed that by proper precautions
in regard to the matters and by avoid
ing all contact with diseased hogs
nearly all danger of disease might be
removed. Undoubtedly these meas
ures are most desirable, but it is a
fact that in many neighborhoods the
disease appeared among the droves of
those farmers who give their hogs fair
ly good care and who have observed
these conditions. In many instances
it broke out among those who had no
opportunity to come in contact with
infected stock, and again it would
sometimes seem to skip neglected
drove in favor of well-cared-for stock.
The efficacy of the Government rem
edy is doubted by many, though they
admit that it does no harm. A good
cure has yet to be found. Meantime
limit the water supply, giving it only
at stated intervals divide your herd
up into several smaller ones; watch
carefully and at the first symptoms of
sickness isolate and disinfect. Hogs
that have been pastured are less liable
to the disease than those that have
been grained. This fact causes many
people to attribute the violence Of the
outbreak this season to the diminished
grass crop.

Cigarettes and Insanity.

DR.. Benjamin BlackfOrd, the able
superintendent of the Western State
Hospital at Staunton, Va, in his an
nual report to the board of directors
of that institution says: ITO great
extent the increase of insanity may be
attributed to the pernicious cigarette
smoking habit now so long prevalent
among and undermining the moral,
physical and mental health of the
youth of our country during the period
of youth and development, when the
brain is tender and plastic and easily
affected by the noxious inhalatlons
kissing through and around the nerve
centres. His nervous organization is
apt to become more shattered by the
cigarette habit than if he were adj
dicted to alcoholic stimulants during
that period, and will surely be the first
to give away, and, of course, the first
to suffer, especially during the period
of puberty, with its strain on the ner-
vous system. The youth at college
who burns the midnight oil is to be
commended for his industry, but too
often he burns out his brain at the
same time with the accompanying Gig
arctic. The process of waste and in
Jury to the nervous system may be
greater than the repair, and mental
bankruptcy is the result.
