In the, Harlem manuscript, Nos. 70
and $50, in the library of the British
Museum, mention is made OF the most
extraordinary family that has ever
been known in the worlds history.
The parties were Scotch weaver and
his wife mot wives), who were the
father and mother Of sixty-two chill
dren.
The majority of the offspring of this
prolific pair were boys-exactly how
many is not known--for the record
mentions the fact that forty-six OF the
male children lived to reach manhood's
estate, and only four of the daught ers
lived to lie grown up women. Thirty
nine of the sons were still living in
the year 1880, the majority of them
then residing in and about Newcastle
on-Tyne.
1t is recorded in one of the old his
tories of Newcastle that "a certyne
gentleman of large estaytes' rode
"thirty-aud-three miles beyond the
Tyne to prove this wonderful story. "
1t is further related that Sir J. Bow
ers adopted ten Of the sons, and three
other 'landed gentlemeI" took ten
each. The remaining members of the
extraordinary family were brought up
by the parents.

A Soldiers Queer Mania.

Two sergeants of the hospital corps
brought crazy soldier from the camp
at Admission, Ala, to tn government
asylum for the insane at Washington.
He had a mania for drilling and
would walk back and forth all day on
a twelve inch plank. Though gen.
orally harmless, he would at intervals
break out into violent contortions,
choke nurses and threaten to chastize
officers. He drilled himself into a
shadow. In his Illinois home he was
a blacksmith. weighing about 200
pounds, and when he got off the train
at Washington you could nearly see
through him. Five men were required
to hold him down in one of his spasms
of crazness. Fortunately one SER
geant of the hospital corps is per-
mitted to wear side arms, and the
sight of revolver seldom failed to
quiet the prisoner. There have been
several cases OF this kind in the vol
unteer army. New York Press.

At Phoenix, Arizona, 1T is estimated
that enough water is wasted from Salt
river each winter to irrigate 1000, 900
acres in the Salt river valley. 1t is
proposed to store these winter foods,
to be drawn from as needed during
the summer months, by constructing a
reservoir in the mountains sixty miles
northea t of PhIniy. The United
States government has granted the
Hudson Reservoir e. Canal company
the Tonic basin, to be used as stor-
age reservoir.
1t proposes to build dam at the
head of the canyon where the river
energies from the basin, creating II
lake eighteen square miles to depth
of 100 to 200 feet. 1t will be ntces.
sary to build dam 200 feet high and
some 900 feet in length at the top,
although the canyon is only 200 fest
from the bottom. To construct this
storage reservoir, the largest in the
world, will cost about 81, 500, 600.

The Secret of Napo.eOn's Success.

Napoleon once said: 1.-The time to conquer
is now-nGver wait. and he always con-
quered because he always struck ut once for
victory. The person who is sick or out of
health should seek ut once the right physi-
clan and treatment for immediate cure. The
right physician to consult is an eminent spe-
cialiat of world wide fame and largest eXpe-
rience In curing nervous chronic or linger-
ing complaints. like DR.. Greene, of "a Temple
Place. Boston. Mass. who in his vast expert
ence cures thousands OF eases just like yours.
Aud the right treatment to take is that which
surely cures and at the same time is purely
vegetable and perfectly harmless, like DR..
Grernr's wonderful treatment by harmless
vegetable remedies. One of his great dscov
cries. known as DIR. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy, is known and used all
over the world. but he has discovered equally
valuable cures for all phases Of disease. Not
withstandiBg the fact that DR.. Greene has the
largest practice and a greater success in cur
ing disease than any other physician, he can
be consulted by the peopl. absolutely with
out charge, whether you call or write. III you
want to be cured. il you want to know what
your trouble is, do not wait. but write about
your case, Mt once to this most successful OF
physicians and get his advice and counsel
free. Follow the maxim OF Napoleon and
conquer your disease nOw-do not wait until
it may BIZ too late.

N-I;ayS on Hens.

1t is reported in scientific journals
that Rudolph Spreckles of California
examines all his hens with al X-ray
apparatus, and is thereby able to de.
tect such defects in conformation as
will lead to their being bad layers in
matter Of quantity or size of their
eggs. Hens which are not up to Mr..
Spreckles' standard pay the penalty
of their inieriority by summary con-
tlemnntion to the rattening process.
As Mr., Sprec!lics finds that, on an
average there is one bad layer in every
five hens, and he keeps some 14,0OO
of them, m enormous amount OF time
and labor which would otherwise DO
lost in enlcavori ~ TO persuade the
bad layer to mend her ways is saved.
1t does not take long, either, for some
thirty or forty hens can b. examined
in an hour.

Draining the POntine Marshes.

At last Fourier's Utopian boast that
civilization could easily make the pes
tilential pontine marshes of Latinm,
Italy, fertile ground seems on the eve
of fultilment. A German, MAJOR Won
Donat, has conceived scheme for
etlecting this highly desirable end,
and his plan is approved by experts
in engineering, and is backed by Ger
man capitalists. Count Hatten Gap
ski and Dr. Sholta- Douglas, the latter
a son of Count Douglas Ralswid, have
gone to Rome to open negotiations
with the Italian government. The

MY Boy.

The sons OF many other mothers
HIVE pink and white cheeks just rs fair,
And wealth Of gold and brown locks way

But none can with my boy compare;
OFT in the distance with his comrades
see him coming, while afar,
Among the whole group shining radiant
As when from gray clouds CLEANS II start
When merry songs in neighb'rlng wood
lands
Ring forth like sweet bells, pure and
clear,
I hear but one mid ali the voices
NY sons alone doth reach my ear!
And when n ball In happy playtims
Flies upward to the very roof,
know that my own boys hand flung it
or his youths strength joyous proof!
When fifteen moro brief years have Aeeted,
Tho vision yc will see with me.
As slender us green young llr.trunk!
He stands beneath the apple-tree!
Fen now his bright. clear eyes upliftel
The radiant sunshine strive to bear;
Yes, there are sons Of other mothers.
but none can with my boy compare.

Glass Ercts.

Glass frcts have been tried ON
zithers, and have. it said, been found
to produce marvellous effects upon
the tone. 1t is not very clear why
this should be 50. In stringed instru-
ment' apparently very trivial changes
produce important effects. A slight
change in the position of the sound
post in violin may change a poor
sounding instrument into Il fine one.

THE AUSTRlANS HEARD THE NEWS.
Their IrOnclad Hove in Sight Just After
Ccrvera's Fleet Had Sunk.

Their 1rOnclad Hove III Sight just Alter
Ccrvera's Fleet Had Sunk.
When the American fleet was OPP
Grating in Cuban waters, foreign men,
of-war occasionally happened along to
see what was going on. 1t CHANGED
that, very soon after the vessels of
Sampson and Schley had destroyed
Cerveras fleet, an Austrian ironclad
hove in sight The Indiana steamed
out to meet it, aud soon boat, with a
lieutenant, left the Austrian to visit
the Indiana. The Washington Star
tells the story:
The Austlians had heard nothing
but distant cannonading, which
might have been salutes. The lieu
tenants visit was merely one of cere-
mony.
His countenance betrayed astonish-
ment when he came aboard, and saw
the decks blackcned with powder, and
men and officers begrimed and covered
with perspiration; but he asked no
questions until he was conducted to
tho captains room, and found it filled
with the sitting smoke of gunpowder.
Then the Austrian officer asked Cap
tain Taylor what sucha state Of things
indicated.
SIT indicates" answered the cap
tain, "that we have just engaged the
enemy"
"What? Cervera?"
1.-THE same"
"But what were your losses?"
"None."
"But where is the Spanish feet?"
The Austrian was now thoroughly ex-
cited.
"Come up on the poop and I will
show you," said Captain Taylor.
They steamed in the direction of the
shore, and the Austrian officer had his
glasses levelled.
"There is one, and there another,
and n little out of view, there is the
Cristobal Colon" said Taylor, point
ing out first one Spanish wreck and
then another.
Tha Austrian. whose sympathies
/, were undoubtedly with the Spaniards,
was shocked beyond expression at this
picture, typical and declaratory of the
ruin of nation. The Americans re,
spected his feelings. and he departed
in silence.
