In 1864 there were, strange as it
seems only six stagecoaches running
in all England. and of course these were
the only public vehicles for travellers.
Even these were a novelty, and per-
son named John Crosset thought they
were such dangerous innovation that
he wrote pamphlet against them.
These coaches. he wrote, ''make gen.
tlemen come to London upon every
small occasion, which otherwise they
would not do except upon urgent neces-
sity. Nay, the convenienoy of the pass
age makes their wives come often up,
who rather than come such long jour
neys on horseback would stay at home.
Then when they come to town they
must be in the wade, get fine clothes,
go to plays and treats, and by these
means get such habit Of idleness and
love of pleasure that they are uneasy
after. /" Even people who come to the
city on steam cars are sometimes sim
ilarly affected by the visit, even unto
this day.-Exchange.

"On the approach of thunderstorm
French peasants often make up very
smoky fire, says Industries and Iron,
in the belief that safety from light
ming is thus assured By some this is
deemed superstition. but Schaster shows
that the custom is based on reason mas
much as the smoke acts as good con-
ductor for carrying away the electricity

They Were Requested to Call and Steal
Valuable HeirloOms.
A man rushed into the business office
Of one of the daily papers and stopped
at the advertising window. There he
secured pad of paper and pencil with
string to it. He wrote and erased, and
then tore up what he had written, chew
ing the fragments savagely while he
made another copy.
"There," he said at last as he
thrust the paper into the hand Of the
advertising clerk, count the words and
tell me what they will cost for one in
sertion. reckon that will fetch them. -
This was the advertisements:
Burglars are requested to call some
night this week on Mr. and Mrs. Eras-
tus Brown, Ash court A door and win

offered for removing the spoils. -

''Be thankful, young man. You little

Powdered Crab as a medicine.

A Russian journal that has recently
come under our notice calls attention to
the fact that for some 30 years past the
inhabitants Of a malarial locality in
the government of Kharkov have used
powdered crabs with great success in
the case of fevers The powder is pre-
pared in the following way: Live crabs
are poured over with the ordinary
whisky until they get asleep They are
then put on bread pan in hot oven,
thoroughly dried and pulverized and
the powder passed through fine sieve.
One dose, teaspoonful, is generally
sufficient to cure the intermittent fever
In very obstinate cases a second dose is
required Each dose is invariably pre-
coded by glass of aloe brandy as
purgative. The powder is used in that
locality in preference to quinine So
says the journal We will not vouch
for it-New York Ledger.

"Don't leave me, captainl Oh, dom t

the evening of the great battle Of NAL

youth of IL years, lay in heap, gasp

ing him, along with the rays Of sun
light, on that sad and memorable day
I, for whom that piteous cry was meant,
was staff officer of the brigade to
which the Louisiana regiment, the sol
der boys regiment, was attached
Well mounted, was galloping back
across that bloody field to report the
duty l had performed when suddenly
arrested in my course by the voice of
despair and woe, coming from my
stricken comrade. The day was fast
passing away into darkness, a darkness
that seemed to enshroud this valley of
death. The terrific cannonading on both
sides that had lasted for hours from the
surrounding hills Malvern hill being
the central point of attack by the Con-
federates) was supplemented by the
booming of artillery and bursting Of
shells from the gunboats on the ada
cent James river.

encounter between those two giants of

swooned away from loss of blood, and
was glad to know he was not dead
Giving him the bride of my horse to
hold, tore the sash from around my
waist to bandage his torn and bleeding
limb.
The boy was praying and called down
Gods blessing on me. His petition to
heaven seemed to be heard. The storm
of wind and rain, although still high,

asleep-asleep to wake no more.-Daw

From east and west we gathered in one crew
The restless and unruly of the world.
The stars laughed from the banner we I'm.
furled.
We were stout hearts, boon spirits, tried and
true
Then lightly from the mast thronged port we
drew,
For 1t was ours, from utmost isles impearled
In stormy sea, where wave and tempest
swirled,
To fetch for man lost and priceless clew,
And still, for many day, our mighty bark
With roaring sail flies onward Ger the deep,
And we, at dawn, with anxious vision scan
Each new horizon, lifted from the dark,
For islands which have liberty in keep
The Golden Fleece which we must win for
man.

Negroes with Red Hair.

"a man sees lots of funny things
while travelling around the country, but
the most peculiar sight ever saw was
in Omaha the last time was there, -
said Charles Killinger of Cincinnati.
"While walking along the street there
recently saw two negroes with hair as
red as any red hair you ever saw. 1t
was as kinky as the negro wool usually
is 1t was funny sight, and | stopped
to look at them as they went down the

there told me those negroes had come

kies. Six fingered people are not unoom-

And give him our sorrows, our songs and

Let MS live, my dear; let us live and Lowell
Let US live, my dear, in the lonely lands
For kiss, tear and clasp of hands,
For whatever blessings a soul may miss
There is nothing in heaven as sweet as this,
Loves kiss-love's lingering, first sweet kiss.
With a world below and heaven above
And a life, my dear, that is lived for lovei

Where Is There Smaller One!

It is quite probable that ScotlandNeck
has the smallest telegraph operator IN
the world. His name is Ashley Bryan,
son of Mr.. G. w. Bryan, who has been
the agent and operator at Scotland
Neck since 1889, when the railroad was
first built to this place.
Ashley is 10 years old and weighs 63
pounds. He does all the work OF the
operator at the Scotland Neck office,
which handles on an average about 80
messages a day. The market reports
are correctly taken from Chicago, New
York, and Liverpool.
A stranger passing into the office
would think the operator Is his ''papa's
little man" playing around his desk, and
never for moment would suppose that
that little barefoot tot manipulates the
machine which talks to the people all
over the land. He writes fine hand
for one so young, and his work Is
wonderfully efficient.
It is unusual to see little fellow Ike
him. with his little trinkets about him
snatching a moment If childish play
now and then but employing most OF
his time attending to stern duties that
oftentimes tax men of strong years
But Ashley does it all, albeit he Is
ten years old and weighs only b;
mounds

"One of the most foul robberies was
committed near here last Saturday
known within the lives Of cur oldest

known to many OF the citizens of this

old colored woman, now nearly ROUTE
a century old, received from her son a
package containing some presents and
two dollars in cash. Last Saturday as
she was coming to town, as Is her usual
custom, she was knocked down, beaten,
robbed, and dragged to a ditch where
she Was left Tor dead. She was not dead,
but in half nude condition got up
after her assailant had departed and
went to neighboring colored mans
house where she told that Charlie Will

had thus maltreated her. This statement
she made to others. Williams was ar
