RIEHL.
One of Frederick's oldest and most
prominent citizens, in the person of
Mr.. John H. Riehl, departed this life
Oh Friday night last, at late hour,
from the effects of stroke of paralysis
received short time ago, and which
rendered him helpless and an easy vic
tim of the silent reaper. For many
years he has lived in domestic seclu-
sion, being unable to work at his trade
of clustering, at which, by the way, he
was a clever workman. His age was
II years, months and Is days. He
was born OH the premises he occupied
at the time of his demise. The de-
ceased spent his entire life in this city,
and was regarded by all as an esteemed
and worthy citizen. He was a veter-
an fireman, belonging to the United
Fire Company. He was for a long
time keeper of the city spring, on
West Patrick street, adjoining the
bridge, and his name was even identi-
fled with it. He married Miss Cath
arine Stone, of Gainesville, this
county, who survives him. Four chill
dren also mourn the loss of a devoted
father: Miss Bette Riehl, Mrs. Lewis
Brust, and Messrs. Charles and Will
liam Riehl. The funeral took place
on Monday last, attended by host of
loving relatives and friends and
many acquaintance, who respected
him for his many sturdy characteris-
tics.

British Army Regulations.

Just before he retired, the old Duke
Of Cambridge, who, while a sort of
martinez. Is not particular about his
appearance, found out that some of the
rank and file Of the British army were
wasting their substance on hair oil and
curling tongs. He forbade 1t. To the
old Duke of Cambridge's critical eye
1t was evident that the dry rot Of eff
Terminate luxury had set in among the
inmates of the. barrack rooms. The
younger men not only curled their hair
and anointed 1t literally with oil, which
Of itself must take up a good deal Of
time properly belonging to their most
gracious sovefeign, but the curls were
allowed to stray a half inch and even
more In front of the forage caps, which,
of course, Is conducive to all manner
of unmilitary excuses. Moreover, the
forage caps themselves were, in too
many cases, cooked at an angle, for no
other purpose, apparently, than to give
the curls a good show. A general order
has been issued calling attention
to the queens regulations, which pre-
scribe the manner in which the hair
shall be o by private soldiers and
the way forage caps should be kept on
the head. The order does not specify
the exact punishment for contumacy,
but doubtless this is also provided for
by the queens regulations, which, in
deed, regulate everything in the British
army, to the number of buttons on the
tunics and the material Of the shoe
laces. Fortunately no such dry rot
has yet affected the few soldiers that go
by the name Of the United States army.

In various ways the circus Of the
present day differs from that Of the
past, but the ring remains unchanged
1t IS always forty-two feet nine inches
iii diameter. Go where you will, search
the world from China to Peru, with
dIverging trips to the frosty Caucasus
and the desert of Sahara, and never a
circus will you find without q ring
forty-two feet nine inches In diameter.
There is a reason for this remarkable
uniformity. Circus riders and circus
horses are nomadic; wherever theft
wanderings bring them, they must find
the ring always the same, else they will
be disturbed In their performance, II

While He Silent.

Archibald Clarke, a farmer living
near Grump, KY, is without doubt tn,
most remarkable somnambulist In
Kentucky. He actually during tn,
past summer cultivated four acres oj
land while asleep.
For a long time Mr.. Clarke suspected
his neighbors of stealing into his trucA
patches after night and doing the work
but finally one night, while mailing
some boards on his backyard fence
he struck his thumb with a Ratchet and
awoke, thus realizing for the first time
that he had been working in his sleep

200 yards. One night he fell asleep
thinking that he would rise early on
the following day and cut a small ditch
to drain a pond. But great was hiI
surprise when the next morning h,
found that the pond had been ditched
during the night.
On one occasion he got up shortly
after he had fallen asleep and putting
several pounds OF butter in a basket
took 1t to a nearby grocery and traded
1t for coffee and sugar. For Il LONG
time he was at a loss to account for the
missing butter. Neither did he know
whence came the coffee and sugar,

He Emhndiad Justiee.

The late chief justice of Victoria,
George Higinbotham, was known
throughout that Australian colony for
his strong and peculiar qualities. While
he lived his eccentricities amused the
unthinking public, but now that he 10
dead, the people see that even his odd
est actions prompted by an UNI
usually high Of honor. One OF
his biographers says:
"He had the unusual habit, whether
on the bench or in private life, Of put
ting himself In the place of the man
before him; Of trying to look at things
from his point Of view. In hearing a
case, he forced himself to ase 1t with
the eyes of both plaintiff and defend
ant. Hence the almost unerring justice
of his decisions"
Once at a large dinner party a naval
officer was describing how his ship had
been overrun with rats, and how he
had called In O rascal Of a rat catcher,
who had pretended to rid the vessel Of
the vermin.
But" added the officer, "there were
nearly as many at the end of the next
voyage. l believe he left a few that he
might have another job when we came
into port"
"Oh, nor exclaimed tho chief JUS
tice, in a panied voice. Don't say
that!"
"He thinks now" said some n who
knew him we'll, shat he Is the rat
catcher!" which no doubt was the case.
His almost childish unselfshness and
his enthusiastic eagerness in peace
making commanded a remarkable af-
lection and homage from even worldly
business men.
On one occasion he exhausted all his
logic and powers of persuasion to e c
oncile two Of his friends who were OBJ
stinately resolved OF going to law.
Finding his labor of no avail, the
chief justice suddenly led n Of them
