An U%nexampled Death Roll.

Never in the whole history of the
United States has there been a naval
catastrophe SO destructive to human
life as the wreck of the Maine.
Not only is this true of the years Of
peace, but it is true of the years Of
war. More brave men went down
with the burned and shattered hulk Of
our nable armor-clad on Tuesday night
than have persisted in any single sea
fight Of the Republic. The bloodiest
day in our naval history was that fatal
9th Of March, 1862, when the iron
mailed Merrimac came into Hampton
Roads and crushed successfully the
frigate Congress and the sleep wa
Cumberland. Though these two ships
were defended with extraordinary
heroism, hurting their last defiant
%broadsides at their impregnable foe
just as the flames and the waves over
whelmed them, the deaths on neither
vessel were equal to those on the
Maine. The Congress lost 100 out of
2 complenssn. &c 49, 3 III Cumberland
100 out Of SIG.
Strange as it may seem, the dead of
the Maine outnumber several times
over all the men who fell in the Union
feet at Farragut's first great victory
of New Orleans. Thirty-seven officers
and sailors gave up their lives in that
fierce night battle OF the Mississippi.
One hundred and forty-tive persisted
in the fercer encounter of Mobile Bay,
but ninety-three of these sank at their
posts with the t~orpedoed monitor
Tccumseh. Only 20 fell in Admiral
Porter's first attack on Fort Fisher,
on December "A and %, 1864, and 80
was the total loss Of the feet in the
second and victorious combat.
Not only is the death roll Of the
Maine greater than that Of any sea
battle which the United States has
fought, but it is greater than that Of
Nuy bottiO dave Ouc VI LAC DIlClbQ
navy in the past hundred years. The
British loss was somewhat larger at
Trafalgar, Reckoning the sasualt;es OF
the entire aeet, bat no single ship
auHered more than a fraction Of the
less which tho Maine sustained by
this terrible explosion. Nelson's Gag
ship, the Victory, wal under Are for
Eve hours, and was reduced TO a mere
wreck, but her killed were emily 81 ont
Of q full crew Of 600. At the bastle
Of the Nile the BellerophonN which
was most cut up Of all Of Nelson's
ships, lost ~ men out Of 584, and
che whole feet lost 213. Jervis won
his Earldom at Cape St. Vincent With
. loss Of y men, and 2o3 fell on the
British side at Camperdown.
From these records OF tie n.st the
American people can realize more WV
idly the r measure Of the sacrifice
which their navy has offered up in the
harbor Of Havana.-Bpstoa .Aarer-

Returning With His Dead.

ST.. JOSEPH, Mo-, March John
A. Cowden, who drove through this
city to-day ON mis- way from Wallace
county, Kansas, TO Winfield, lii, is
probably making as sad a journey ae
was ' e undertaken by mortal man.
Meme knew that the stained and tat
tered oanvas-covered wagon sheltered
the dead, and that the bodies Of
Cewden'e wife and Two children were
being taken by him from a onoe happy
home to their ola home ia Illinois for
interment. The nature of the load
which the ponieB had dragged across
the treeless State Of Kansas was acct
dentally discovered whom Cowden
stopped before an undertaken place
to obtain some assistance.
He said he went West ten years
ago and took q farm in the extreme
western tier Of KANSAS c~ountier. His
wife made the journey with him, and
their children were born ON their new
claim. They managed to make both
ends meet, and last fall were hopeful
that better times were in sight. Then
misfortune came. In November fire
destroyed their home and almost their
all. In the wretched duvout in which
they were forced to take refuge the
two children sickened and died, and
were buried on tho banks of the
Smoky.
In despair, Cowden and his wife
decided to go back to their old home
i'll the East and take the remains of
the little ones with them. This, they
reasoned, could be done in the winter,
when the freezing atmosphere of the
wind.swept plains would almost petrify
the bodies before starting. The Solo
men River was crossed at Delph0s, n

There has just eeen received at
the Maryland Academy Of Sciences
tho skeleton Of an Indian seven feet
tall. 1t was discovered near Ante
tara ssne time ago. There are now
skeletons Of three powerful dndians at
tho AcadeAy WHO, at one time in
their wildnsss, reamcd over the State
of Maryland armed with such instru-
nents AS nature gave them, or that
their limited Akill taught them ia
make. Two Of these skeletons be-
longed to individuals evidently off gi-
gantic size. The vertebr" and bones
OF the legs are nearly as thick as
those of Il horse, and the length If
the long bones exceptional. The
skulls are of fine proportions. ample.
and with walls of moderate thickness.
but of great strength. and stifcned
behind by Il powerful o~ccipital ridge.
The curves of the forehead are not
%retreating, suggesting intelligence,
and connected with jaws of moderate
development.

Helen Of Troy was over 40 when her
world-famous clopement occurred, and
10 years later, when the fortunes of
war restored Mcnclaus to her, she was
still the same delightful woman.
What is the little matter of 10 years?
.Aslasia was 80 years Of & when

still beautiful, So the story goes.
Nine. RccaHlier when 81 was de-
clarcd the most beautiful woman in

admirers, Of both sexes, showed no

There may be no certain age that is
the perfect enc. If there really was,
it would but add to our discomfort.
As it is, what a cheering thing to have
proof-and history is full Of it-that
age has but little to do after all with
our power to please. Youth may be
beautiful and glorious to look upon.

IL. Avoid intoxicants, which de-

II. Daily exercise in@the open air.
