The claim made last night was that

would be obliged to sell their papers at

last night by a Spy man. He was told
the situation, and said:

The nuckinr Stool In ENGLAND.

1t is interesting to conjure up pic
ture of Il 'ducking" as practiced in
England at the end of the eighteenth
century.
When the ''scold" had been properly
tried and convicted, she was escorted
by a crowd of her neighbors-in fact,
by the whole villa ge-tO the nearest
pond-and the greener and Sinner the
pond the better. A long plank was
produced, at one end of which was the
"ducking stool" and in this the scream
ing, struggling victim was securely PIN
toned.
The chair end OF the plank was then
pushed far over the edge of the pond,
and at n signal ii was tilted deep into
the green ooze until the scold was com
pletely immersed.
When the dripping, half drowned
woman was raised to the surface
again. to the jeers and laughter of the
onlOOkers, it can be imagined that her
tongue wagged to some purpose. After
a second dose she emerged more sub
dued, and after third or fourth she
was as penitent woman as the vii
lage contained and was allowed to
proceed home a sadder and wiser wo-
man-until the next time. - London

are as nothing compared to this
slaughter.
