The Hand TO Mouth Existence That Was
Led by Leigh Hunt.
Leigh Hunt had 10 sense either of
time OF Of monoy--a grave fault, per-
haps an objectionable vice, in man
who had a wife and children depending
upon him. AS long as he lived he was
thriftless and needy, a lender and bor-
rover, so generous that he could never
afford to be Just, bringing upon those
whom he loved sincerely a constant bur-
den of debt and care. How reprehensible
this was he seems never TO have felt,
though he blames himself freely and
light heartedly, and if the reader Of
his autobiography is disposed to feel
sorry for Mrs. Hunt it is not because
her husband sets him the example. This
was Leigh Hunts one vice, never
amended nor actively repented of. Yet
he had had his warning Tt is pathetic
to compare with each other the two fol-
lowing passages and to see how clearly
Leigh Hunt forcsaw his danger and
how incapable he proved Of escaping 1t:

row the Air Is Purified.

Motion, mechanical and molecular,
the great law Of the universe, is first to
be considered as a natural method for
the purifcation Of the atmosphere. \ Its
power as purifier Of the air is shown
mechanically in the flow Of rivers and
in the ocean currents Molecularly it
serves the same purpose in the form Of
heat, light and electricity.
When not in motion, air stagnates as
water does and becomes offensive and
bad, because it is easily impregnated
with fine animal and vegetable dust as
well as noxious gases. Certain physical
conditions are always necessary for the
continual movement Of tho air. We
know that the diUrnal motion of land
and sea air brings tho warm days and
cool nights as well as the rain and
wind. In the tropical regions as the
run rises the heat Of the day increases,
and the breeze sets in from the sea to
the land As the sun goes down the heat
diminishes and at sunset the tempera-
lures Of sea and land are equal Atnighl
again the breeze is from land to sea
until morning, when the temperature
may become equal and the sea breeze

the point where she lies aground are
locked and even the most experienced
pilot has difficulty in making the pas

ing a heavy wind there might have
been serious trouble, but at the time
when the bar was struck there was al
most a dead calm, SO that the shock
of striking was hardly felt by those on
board. She lies tonight, however, well
listed to port at ebb tide. Nobody on
board was hurt, and Commodode Wea-

EASTON, Nd, Nov 1S.-Most of to-
days session of the Circuit Court for
Talbot county was occupied with ap-
peal cases from justices About a month
ago a Jerseyman brought to Easton a
carload OF Jersey apples, which he re-

a justice for selling without a license
and took his case to the Circuit Court
Judge Stump acquitted him on the
ground that it was not against the Ii
cense law to bring perishable articles
into the state in bulk and huckster
them out. This decision settles a vexed
question.

AN EXPLICIT UNDERSTANDING.
TAYLOR's BREAD WAS NOT TO BE
ACCEPTED AT THE ALMSHOUSE
If DEEMED INFERIOR.

The dumping Of about 800 pounds Of
fresh bread upon the lawn OF the
county almshouse yesterday by Baker
John b. Taylor's men, and the subse-
quent tossing of it out into the public
road. has created a sensation in this
neighborhood. Superintendent Mccoy
and the Trustees Of the Poor behind
him, are determined not to receive any
more bread from Mr.. Taylor during
this quarter. The baker, on the other
hand, seems equally determined to de-
liver a supply of bread every day and
leave it, if he has to get on the grass
TO do Il.
AT the last meeting of the Trustees of
the Poor several members demurred
giving Mr. Taylor the contract, al
though his bid was the lowest. Finally
a compromise was reached among the
members, and it was agreed to award
Taylor the contract on the explicit
proviso that If the superintendent
deemed at any time, the bread not sat
isfactory. he could cancel the grant
and give the contract to the next lowest
man, Lawrence Maucher.
