William Reese, living near
Millington, West Virginia, met
with a remarkable accident in
harvesting. He was riding on a
binder when the machine
overturned Il hive of bees. The
bees swarmed out and began to
sting the team and driver. Reese
was trying to unhitch when one
of the horses in its agony grabbed
him by the leg and held ON until
farm hands came to his assistance
and pried the animals jaws open
withastick of wood. A physician
was summoned, who found that a
bone had been crushed. Reese
is not expected to live. Thehorse
which inflicted the injury soon
died from the bee stings.

Mr.. Samuel Ruff, one of the
oldest citizens of Penn, West
moreland county, has a recipe
for the care Of peach trees which
he says every grower of the de-
licious fruit should know. Mr..
Ruff says the greatest enemy the
peach tree has is a worm that de-
stroys the roots. A bushel of
coal scattered around the tree
will prevent this. The sulphur
in the coal penetrates, to the
worms. The remedy is simple
one and Mr. Run will vouch for
its efficacy.

AneCdOte of Jackson,


Former Governor Peter Turney
Of Tennessee. had a peculiar ex-
perience with General, Stonewall
Jackson. 1t was in Virginia, Of
course. Colonel Turney had new
er seen the general, but about
midnight received orders to pre-
pare three days rations and be
ready to move at a moments
notice. Two hours later came an
order TO proceed in certain di-
rectiOn, and that on Il certain
point ON the road he would find a
guide AT the point a citizen rode
up and merely indicating the di-
rection rode along with the colo
mel in silence. Before day they
came upon a plain-lOOking man
wearing a small cap and mounted
on a little pony. He fell in with
the head of the column and along
they rode, still in silence. Soon
after daybreak the newcomer
said: "Colonel, had you not bet
ter halt your men for breakfast"
81 will before long, was the re-
ply. The silence was only broken
half an hour later by a similar
suggestion and a similar reply.
Finally the newcomer stopped
glancing around at the sky and
landscape said: Colonel, halt
your men for BREAKFAST. "
Colonel Turney, thinking that
this was a plain countrymen who
felt over sorry for the men, did
so. When the march was resum-
ed the stranger remarked that
theregimentw was stragglingagood
deal, and when Colonel Turney
gave a command for the column TO
"short step" the stranger said;
''No, that will throw your men all
out. 1t should be slow step.
This was a command to which the
Tennesseans were not accustom
ed, and, putting private on his
pony, the stranger took the head
of the column on foot and showed
the men how to march.
While this was going on Colonel
Turney asked his adjuant who the
stranger was, and when the re-
ply came "StonewalN>Jnkson, -

He was on foot, th4 wv. head
man, in such closdAlEo$ $rsity tc
the enemy that the battld was on
in half an hour, and yet teaching
the soldiers how TO march.
BY this night movement he
hanked the enemy and the Ten.
nessee regiment struck in front,
making a complete route for the
enemy.

Human Lie Longer

The opinion of American life
insurance men that the average
length of human lifeis increasing
has bcen sustained by the results
of eight years work by the actu-
aries of England and Scotland.
These actuaries have just com
plotted an examination of the NOR
tality records Of more than 600,
900 persons, and they affirm that
the increase is both notable and
steady. This is the natural and
invitable effect Of several causes,
the chief of which, perhaps, is the
birth and development of sanitary
science, by which the spread of
diseases has been checked. 1t is
beyond all doubt, too, that people
pay more attention than formerly
to the laws of personal hygiene.
In every way they regulate their
lives more nationally, owing to the
wider extension of education and
the more exact knowledge Of the
effect of neglect. Labor saving
machinery has relieved men of
the hardest toll, and children and
women are prevented by law from
working an excessive number of
hours in factories. That intem-
perance has greatly diminished
is obvious, and people are better
fed, clothed and housed than at
any other time in the history of
the race.
The lengthening of human life
by the addition of a few years at
the end-the prolongating of the
helplessness and pains of mind
less old age could hardly be re-
garded as q blessing. The in
crease in the average length of
life means something better than
this. Old age as well as death
has been pushed farther away.
Youth lasts longer than formerly.
AS recently as a century ago it
was common for girls of sixteen
to become wives, while the young
woman of twenty five who was
still unmarried was regarded as
well within the borders of con
frmed spinsterhood. 1t is pro
bable that now more young wo-
men are married at twenty five
than at twenty. Men are now in
the zenith of their powers be-
tween forty and fifty, and a man
Of sixty is no longer old. The
proportion who pass the limit OF
life fixed by the Psalmist in good
health, and with no apparent de,
cline of intellectual vigor, is great
er than ever.
1t is true that this assertion is
contrary to certain records which
have come down to us from the
Sixteenth and Seventeenth cen
turies, and which affirm that per
sons were known to have lived as
long as 175 years, and in one in
stance 200 years. The ancient
records, however, are not treated
with any show of respect by mer
of science. The most thorough
Investigations have revealed thai
in no case had there been any ev
idence that a single person hao
ever lived to be 10 years old.
Besides having the period o.
physical and mental vigor pro
longed, the people of this age are
able to employ agencies which di
minish the time required to dc
things and the distance which i
has been necessary to travel il
order to enjoy certain experiences
On the whole, we have every rea
son to feel that we have unpre
cedented opportunity to make lif'
full and profitable.
