THE HooDLUM NUISANCE.

The American hoodlum proved a
great nuisance in the late campaign, ir
respective Of party. The name hoodum
came from California The thing itself
has spread all over the country. Being
neither man nor boy, the hoodlum pos
sesses the ignorance and recklessness
of immaturity, with frequently the
strength and stature of manhood. and
this makes him dangerous. Without
sense enough to be afraid Of anything,
which may be accounted for by his
youth, the hoodlum Is often fully
developed physically, and stout young
idiot Is by no means pleasant custo-
mer to tackle. The greater number Of
outrages perpetrated during the cam
paign were committed by this class, not
ole enough to vote. yet prominent on
every public occasion. The hoodlum Is
danger and menace In American
society. His tribe seems to increase.
His suppression ID becoming necessary
to the safety Of law-abiding people.

LOVE THEIR HOME,
Il ts Instinct That Leads Animals Rack
to Their Native Heath.

With the exception, possibly, of the
anthropoid apes, the homing sense IL
possessed In higher or lower degree
by all mammals: this Ia true also OF the
birds, The well-known exploits OF the
carrier pigeon are so familiar that they
will scarcely need comment The duck
and the goose sometimes have this sense
very highly developed, ! once knew
a goose to travel back home after be-
Ing carried In covered basket for the
distance of Is miles, A drake and u
dusk To my certain knowledge, travelled
back to their old home, distance OF
nine miles, after being transported by
railway. Instances OF e-retufnlne
In dogs cats. horses etc, are Of such
common occurrence that | hardly need
call attention to them. The following
Instance la so unique however, that
will give It:
In the fall OF 1891 gentleman OF
Vincennes, Ind, visited his father at
Lebanon, KY when he started to re-
turn home his father gave him a yoke
of young steers, which he drove via
Louisville to Vlncennes, Shortly after
his arrival the steers made their escape,
swan the Ohio ut Greensboro, KY, 1850
miles blow Louisville, and In n week
or 80 were found one morning Mt the
gate of their old home ut Lebanon. Led
by their sixth sense alone, these animals
had made n journey OF several hundred
miles over n route entirely unknown to
them.
Fishermen are we'll aware OF the fact
thar certain fish choose localities for
their lurking places which they Will
share with no other fish. The black
bass brook trout, sturgeon, and google
eye are familiar examples OF the fish
which have this habit, Some time ago
| performed the following experiment;
/ took n bass from It's home near q
sunken stump, and, after passing a
thin, short piece of strong thread
through the webb OF Its tall and knot

miles below its lurking place. The next

The release OF Mrs. Castle was to be
expected. In fact, the only real injus-
tice done this unfortunate woman was
the enormous amount OF ball demand
ed. Since the change In the laws re-
garding verdicts In England two years

owing to insanity Is dispensed with
and the verdict guilty but insane
takes It's place. Therefore In the case
