Maj. Carpenter, veteran, who
cohducts farm near this place,
gave an exhibition yesterday that
proves that ordinary hogs may be
educated to high degree. The
major has introduced military dis
cipline among his porkers to such
an extent that they go through the
evolutions with almost human pre-
cision. The exhibition yesterday
was given by Maj. Carpenter for
the profit of few former army
comrades, who pronounced it won
derful. Eight of the animals form
ed in line at the Majors command,
and stood like SO many statues.
In front Of them, about two rods,
was a trough into which a farm
hand then dumped five or six pals
of mixed food. The hogs took
great interest in the operation, and
their little eyes twinkled in anticipa-
ton, but not hog of them stirred
until the Major cried out: "For-
ward J March u When they were
three feet from the trough he COM
madcd "Halt !" and all stood still,
though it was evident they were
laboring under great excitement.
Finally he shouted "Charge I" and
eight porcince noses went into the
trough at the same instant. When
the meal was over the animal re-
formed in line, marched solemnly
to their pen and were disbanded by
a wave of the Majors hand.

The st. Petersburg dispatch 10 the
effect that an imperial edict b ! been
issued abolishing the flogging crimi-
mails apparently refers to the of the
plet or pleti and not to the ,.nout, as
was first supposed. Punish .cnt with
the knout, or more correct, the lInut,
was abolished by Emperor ,icholas 1.
more than forty years ag2. The lash
of the knoTt was compos i of broad
leather thongs, prepared } a metallic
hardness, and often intcg swined with
wire.
A sentence of from one l,undred to two
hundred blows was con ,.dered equiva-
lent to death. When the knout was
done away with, the p! :, simple lash,
was substituted for i. This was con-
sidered a much milder form of punish
ment, but the prisoI officials found
ways of increasing it's efficacy, and
George KEENAN,, in lis recent book on
Siberia, says that IL was informed by
Russian officers TIT death might be
caused by hundrcI blows of the plet.
Flogging has always been a favorite
mode of Russian OPPRESSION of dissatis-
faction. An invriable wedding gift
from the friend of the bride to the
groom is a rawhi lie, and one of the first
duties of the n9wly-wed Russian peas
ant if he wishes to retain his self-re-
spect is to beG: his wife. The story is
told of German resident of Russia
who married Q native wife. All went
joyously for three weeks. One day the
husband fouI.d his wife in tears.
"You do cot love me-" was the best
information he could get. In vain he
protested ard caressed her.
Day afteT day saw the same weeping,
protesting condition. At last the wife,
in burst of despair, made the full
charge: You do not love me, else you
would beat me as other men beat their
wives"
The woman's doubts were set at rest
and by judicious clubbings the German
was enabledfti, live happily and unre-

match with Corbett and other fstic af-

fellow said that there never lived a gam
ier man than Dempsey. Fitzsin nmons
voiced the same sentiment
Talking about Fit8simmons' coming
match with Corbett, Sullivan asked, "Do
you really think you can beat him?
He's mighty clever man"
"Wel," replied Fitzsimmons, 81 am
more than confident that I can beat him.
He's not so hard a game as some people
may think. He's clever; so am ]"
"He licked me you know" said Sulli-
van smilingly. Then Jack McAuliffe
entered the room. He greeted Fitz and
Sullivan cordially.
Sullivan afterwards called on Cham
pion Corbe:t. The two men, who have
not been on friendly terms for some time
greeted each other good naturedly and
had quite chat Sullivan wished Cor
bett success over Fitz5immons and Cor
bett in return thanked him heartily
In an interview Sullivan said that he
was without a cent in the world. He
said that he had spent princely fortune
during the last few years.
