A thief lately arrested in Madrid car
ried a concealed electric arrangement
in his right hand. He would approach
man offering his hand in friendly
fashion. If the man responded by
clasping the outstretched hand an over
poWering shock was the result and the
thief would get through his work and
away before the victim recovered.

The English Humanitaria League is
about to try to do something for birds.
1t has prepared bill, soon to be intro
duced in Parliament, which will make
1t a Enable offense for any person to
wear or sell an article of dress attach
ed to which is 'the plumage, skin or
body of any bird named in the sched-
sule" These include the egret, or fe-
male white heron; the bird Of paradise,
humming- bird, Impeyan pheasant,
tern, kittiwake and kingfisher. All
these birds are said to be in imminent
danger of extinction unless effective
protection of some kind be extended
over them AT recent sale in London
2,150 birds of paradise and 1,1S0 Impe-
yam pheasants were offered for sale. 1t
is not expected that the bill will be per-
rnitted to pass through Parliament
without vigorous opposition and there
is very little hope that it will become
law speedily, but the friends of the
birds hope by continued agitation to
awaken in course of time public SEN
timent which will react upon the House
Of Commons.

A case recently tried in the
London courts will be Of interest to
travellers on ocean liners. 1t seems
that a passengers dressing bag was
damaged by reason of portfolio be-
ing accidentally left open in rough
weather The purser told the steward
to dry the bag in the kitchen, and while
this was being done the bag was so
burned that 1t became useless. The
passenger sued the line, and the court
decided in his favor, reasoning as fol-
lows: The steamship company claimed
in defence that it was exempt from
liability for damage by the conditions
printed on the passengers ticket. The
Judge held, however, that this might
cover liability for damage during the
performance of the ordinary contract
of carriage; but that, inasmuch as the
steamship company had gone further
and undertaken a special care of the
bag, the company thereby became liza
BILE for damage during the time it I'M
dertook to take such special care.

The Kennebec Journal says: That
was rather a stalwart prayer that the
little Gardiner boy put up, and was ex-
pressive, if not wholly reverent. Liv-
ing as near neighbors is a family that
is IN q. deplorable condition, the mother
dead and the four or five children
coming along almost any way. One of
the younger male members of this fam
lily has decided fancy for climbing
the trees on the premises and has re-
lceived a few quite serious falls; so
when the little four-year-o tot in the
next house was saying his prayer the
other night his mother was Mortified to
hear the following clause injected into
1t: 20 God, take care of the Blank
family Tommy climbs the trees and
% God see that he doesn't fall and
break his cussed neck" 1t is needless
to say that that prayer came to a very
abrupt ending.

Mrs. T. J. Henry of Kansas City says
that the planet Jupiter is chiefly re-
sponsible for the extraordinary hot
waves of 1854 and of the present year,
but Saturn has helped. "This year"
she writes to Professor Stockmyer,
"Jupiter was in opposition to the sun
on the 3Oth of June. We are under the
reflection of Saturn at present. as wei
ais that of Jupiter. Saturn was in OPP
position on the 9Th inst. 1t occurs to
me that the reflection from Saturn lasts
seventy-five days. If this is correct
the earth will leave the reflection of
Saturn about the 18th of August. We
may then look for a much lower tenn
perature, as the earth will not strike
the reflection of any other planet be-
fore the middle of November. What's
the matter with this temperature?

fact, almost daily at the price of a

without it.

MkNfIs BIG DAMAGES.
Prof. Cherryholmes OF Clearfield,
Becomes Involved In a
Damage Suit.

The damage suit brought against Prof.
j. D. Jerryholmes, principal of the
schools at Clearfield, will be on trial at
Bedford next week before Judge HI. M.
Towner. The smaller the town, the more
trouble the teachers have, SO it would
seem. Some people haven't anything
else to talk about, so the preachers and
teachers come in as convenient subject
for general discussion at any and all
times. Prof, Cherryholmes had occasion
to punish one Of his pupils--a young
man by the name of Elwood Ennis.
The boys mother thinks that her son
was punished too severely and alleges
that he sustained great injuries, and
asks damages in the sum of one thous.
and dollars for personal injury to the
boy, and five hundred dollars additional
for damages done to her feelings.
OF course there are two sides to the
story and it will be for the court and
jury to determine on which side is the
preponderance of evidence, 1t is claim
ed by friends of the defendant to- the
suit that the boy did not suffer bodily
injury from the punishment inflicted.
AS matter of fact the boy did receive
an injury about the neck and shoulders,
but it is claimed by the defense that he
was thrown from horse and sustained
such injuries, which later he attributed
to the punishment he received at school.
The plaintiff, on the other hand, will
attempt to prove that the boys injuries
resulted directly from the punishment
administered by said defendant.
Prof. Cherryholmes is we'll known in
Ringgold county and the case will be
watched with interest by his friends.
He taught several terms of school at
Redding and for number of years was
principal of the schools at Kellerton.
He took charge of the Clearfield schools
last September. Mr.. Cherryholmes is
prominent as an educator and has been
very successful in his school work.

The Grand River township board Of
school directors met at Lineyille on last
Saturday for the transaction Of regular
and special business and incidentally
discussed the plan of adopting the cen
trail school plan which is now in success
tul working order in many townships Of
Iowa. The Grand River board is con-
fronted by the necessity of building at
least FIVE new school houses in the
several sub-districts to replace the dilap-
idated structures now ready to tumble
down with age, and the central school
house plan, as an economical solution of
the problem, is up for consideration.
The sub-directors seemed to be unit in
favor of the plan, and 6. M. Evans, who
was present, intimated that if the plan
should be adopted that he would donate
land in the exact center Of the township
suitable fora site for the new central
school house land necessary buildings.
The plan is familiar to nearly every
citizen who,is interested in the manage
ment of country schools and the ques-
ton of its economy and superior adyan.

AN AWFUL TALE OF WOE.
Mt. Ayr Lady Gets into Trouble by
" Using a Bogus Cake Recipe.

The Mt. Ayr Cook Book about which
much has been heard and written, and
which yet may be immortalized in song
and poetry, has been placed on the
market and is not drug in the market
either. In fact it is taking like hot
cakes-just like some of the hot cakes
are being taken that are now dished up
to the hungry husbands from recipes
found in this valuable book, which is
indispensable in very well regulated
family whether large or small. The
RECORD is indebted to the authors of
the book for a free copy and bow in
humble Acknowledgement for the gift.
The literary critic Of the RECORD is away
on his vacation at present and in the
absence of our literary genius who is a
man of letters, it would be presumptuous
to attempt any criticism of the work.
The book is above criticism, so it is said.
AS far as is known only one complaint
has been made against the book by
many thousands who have used the rec
iipes given in it. Some one who wanted
to be real smart evidently gave the pub
fishers a reel pc for making sponge cake
that was not intended to be the genuine.
Instead of advising the artists in the
culinary department to use a quart of
flour in making this particular kind of
cake the directions read to use a quart
of potato yeast. The first victim Of this
Joke stirred the batter as directed
for three long mortal hours. Then the
cake was placed in the oven and allowed
to bake for another hour. Imagine the
surprise of this estimable lady when she
went to the oven expecting to, find a
cake fit to grace the table Of any church
sociable, only to discover to her horror
and amazement whole oyen full of
cake. The,cake believed in Expansion"
and had expanded to the full limits Of
the oven. Any person who would be
guilty of perpetratlDg such a joke on an
innocent public is to be censured
severely and it is thought by many that
the guilty wretch should not be allowed
to escape with, only word of censure.
1t has been limited that the Mt. Ayr
Monday club at its next regular meeting
will sit as grand jury in this matter
and if the guilty person can be discover
ed and sufficient evidence obtained to
convict, some more drastic form of
punishment may be meeted out.
Among the many good recipes in this
book is one for making soup that the
Record wishes especially to commend.
| The originator Of the recipe is Geo. A..
4 Wyant, and the soup is particularly
adapted for church sociables and public
entertainments. Here it is:
"Take pail of water and wash it
clean, then boilit till brown on both
sides; put in one oyster; when the oyster
4 begins to worry, prepare to simmer; if
soup won't simmer it's too rich; pour in
more water; dry the wat err with towel
before you put it in; the dryer the water
the sooner 1t browns. Serve hot. y

The postoffice department has caused
it to be announced that postmasters will
be supposed to devote their entire time
to the duties of their offices. This will

says the Cedar Rapids Gazette. There
are certain. politicians who secure the
appointments and draw the pay at
offices yielding about $4,000 and who
employ clerk at salary of 5000 to
attend to the business. There are other
postmasters who devote great deal Of

politics, and these will unite in grand

Live within your means. Poverty is
bad enough, but there is an abyss that
is far deeper, and that is debt. If you
own but one coat, and that is patched
on your back; but one pair Of hose, and
they are darned beyond recognition,
you can yet hold your head as high as
that of an honest man. But if you owe
a debt that you cannot pay, why, then
you are some mans slave till you are
freed from the incumbrance. Half the
unhappiness of the world comes no
from poverty, but from debts incurred
that might have been avoided.

TOLD OF ROYALTY.


 The prince regent of Bavaria is pas sionately fond of the chase and ire quently spends the whole day from seven to five in pursuit of deer, though, when the weather is bad, he may not get shot.
 The jewelry of the sultan of Jo- hore, who has been staying i'll Baden Baden, is creating cons idera ble inter est. He wears huge ruby and dia- mond rings set in silver, six on each hand; diamond solitaire like a chan delier drop and waistcoat buttons in crusted with precious stones.
 When King Edward, then prince of Wales, arrived at Homburg a year ago he turned the scales at 235 pounds; in 12 days he had reduced his weight five pounds, and when his ..cure" was completed he weighed 22s pounds. On arriving at Homburg this year the British sovereign weighed 24o pounds.
 Abdul Hamid has six sons and seven daughters, who are brought up in magnificent seclusion. The princes in particular are born in q pris on, which they are destined to leave only for the grave or to ascend the throne. The sultan's daughters are somewhat more fortunate, as they have the privilege of tyrannizing over the hus- bands who have the honor of becom- ing sons-in-law of Abdul Hamid.
