A Tale e James D. KelIy'5 Powers, as Re

A TaIe e James .. KelIy'5 Powers, as Re-
 lated by Friend.
 Although he is not large physically, several good stories are told about the prowess of James D. Kelly, the seulp- tor whose bronze statues of Molly Pitcher, General Buford at Gettysburg, 'The Battle of Harlem Heights and tsheridan's s Ridee have brought him fame. i friend of his said of him:=
 lie has more courage to the square inch than any man of his size J know, and on several occasions he has been called upon to show it unexpectedly.
 One day an expressman, six feet high ana strong in proportion, invaded his studio. The congressman had over charged the sculptor, and the latter de- sired to refer the matter to the main office. When the irate congressman en- tered, it happened that tall friend of the artist was visiting the studio. With an oath the congressman said that he had come for satisfaction.
 intend to smash you to smither- eens, he calculated, shaking his fist and advancing toward the sculptor.
 Do not wait a moment, answered Kelly.
 4Tho big man sprang at the artist, and ct this critical moment the tall form of the latter's friend vanished through the back door Quick as a flash the sculptor jumped behind the enraged expressman, seized him by the back of the neck, and with all the strength he could summon pushed the burly fellow to the front door and kicked him into the street. It was all done so quickly that the bellicose intruder hardly Enev how 1t happened. He fell en the side walk, and his face was bruised. He got up and ran away. The sculptor return ed to his work, and after a few min. utes his vanishing friend entered tim idly from the rear.
 What have you done with that Goliath he asked. You know have heart trouhio and cannot stand scenes. and so l went out to keep calm.
 Oh, there was no scene, replied the sculptor. 1t was an act in three kicks and push. His heart trouble friend to this day thinks the sculptor is a piece of surcharged dynamite. New York Commercial.

COuTf.

On Tuesday, Charles H. Naylor was put
on trial tor keeping a disorderly house at
Jacobstown. The evidence showed that
Naylor harbored boys under age, and al
lowed them to drink and gamble IN his
place.
The testimony was 90 conclusive the
jury rendered verdict of guilty without
leaving the box.
Judge Gaskill, in passing sentence, said
that Naylor deserved severe punishment.
Such place as he kept was more iniuri-
GUS than several licensed houses. He sent
Naylor to state prison for two years.
On Wednesday the court was busy
with appeal cases.
The jury was unable to agree in the
case of David R. Ludlow VS.. George w.
McNeeley. This suit was to recover
damages to horse loaned to McNeeley.
The suit of the Dewitt Wire Cloth Co.
vs.. E. F. Lamson resulted in a verdict
for defendant, who was sued for $45
for bicycle, but he showed that it was
defective and not salable.
David Haines vs.. Joseph English was
the next case tried. Haines sued Eng
lish for trespassing on the formers ground
with dog and gun, but defendant proved
that he was not cunning on any body's
farm that day, being engaged in husking.
Decision was reserved in the case OF
Levi Abramowitz and Silas Hughes.
Howard Danly, of Columbus convicted
of assault and battery on his wife, was
fined $35.
John Egan, Of Moorestown. was fined
$3.50 on an indictment charging him with
breaking windows and shutters. There
is another indictment of the same nature
against him, on which sentence was sus-
pended.

Teacher Association.

The regular monthly meeting of the
Burlington County Teachers Association
was held at Mount Holly on Saturday.
The association assembled IN the high
school building at the usual hour. The
class in literature studied the earliest Pc
riod of English literature, ending with
the death of Chaucsr. The algebra class
took up simultaneous equations of the
first degree, containing two or more un-
known Quantities. Mr.. Watts departed
somewhat from the usual plan when
there were fractions. He did not clear of
fractions before eliminating. He claims
that great saving of time is effected by
this means.
Both classes adjourned at 1880 and re-
assembled in the Court House at IL o'clock
to listen to lecture on the hygiene of the
eye, by DR.. Wendell Reber, of Philadel-
phis. He said the eyeball of child at
birth is not the right shape for perfect
vision; that it does not attain the normal
shape till about the seventh year. Pre-
vious to that age the child should not be
compelled to do anything equiriDg the
continuous use of the eye for long pc
riod at time-from ten to thirty min
utes, according to the age of the child,
should be the limit. Children acquire
nearsightedness in imperfectly arranged
school rooms. the most fault of such rooms
being insufficient light or light from a
wrong direction and desks of improper
height. The doctor thinks that vertical
penmanship tends to decrease nearsight-
edness, while slanting penmanship tends
to increase it,
All studying should be done by day
light. Of artificial lights, the incandes-
cent light as commonly used is most try
ing to the eye; but an eminent German
oculist is authority for the statement that
if properly softened, it is the most salts
factory, one important point in its favor
being that it does not vitiate the atmos-
phere.
