Gen. Morgan's Ride.

The capture of Gen. John III. Nor
gan and part Of his command In July
1858, closed a memorable chapter II
the history of the Civil War. Up tt
about that time the States of the Nortt
had known nothing of Civil War as af
fecting their own homes. The raid o.
Gen. Morgan through Indiana and
Ohio followed close after the invasion
of Pennsylvania by Gen. Lee. The
latter had hardly got out of the Key
stone State before Morgan entered In
diana, where he produced a sensation
out of all proportion to the military
Importance Of the movement. The
peaceful inhabitants OF the Hoosier
State saw then for the first time (bar-
ring small raid by Captain Holmes,
of Morgan's s command). an armed enc
my upon their soil, and the sensation
was tremendous. The alarm which it
created may be inferred from the fact
that In sixty hours ten regiments Of in.
fantry. four companies Of cavalry and
two battalions of artillery were organ
lied at Indianapolis and moved out.
The services of over 10000 men were
rendered to the authorities.
After coming into Kentucky Nor
gan moved on Columbia, and thence,
on July 4th, to Green River Bridge, on
the road to Campbellsville. where a

tured, after a sharp fight, the forces of
Colonel Hanson. The Clerks Office
and some other buildings were fired
during the fight. and the loss of all the
records has made the day one never to
be forgotten In Marion county. On
the sth Gen. Morgan crossed into In
LLAMA from Brandenburg on two boats
which had been seized, and then began
the memorable ride through Indiana
and Ohio, during the whole of which

QUEER THINGS PEOPLE EAT.
How Food Products are AduIterated In
Europe,

An interesting report has been re
ceiyed at the State Department from
Consul General Richard Guenther, a
Frankfort, Germany. which deals witt
the subject of food authorizations II
Europe. 1t is brief. but to the point
and tells OF some astonishing method
adopted by European tradesmen to de
ceive the public. It says:
''An article on the adulteration o.
food products is going the rounds ol
the German press. It is stated, fol
instance, that an ordinary liver patty
is made into fine, 'Strassburger pate
de fole gras Ia goose-liver patty by
means OF borax or salicylic acid and OF
finely chopped and cleverly distribut.
ed pieces of black silk, representing
truf1les.
"Cosmos, German paper, guaran-
tees the fact that under label of can
ned Holsters the soft parts of the cut
tleash and crabs are sold.
''In Paris snails of late are very pop
ular, and the adulterators mix them
with lungs of cattle and horses. Even
entirely artificial snails are manufac-
tured. The shells, recoated with fat
and slime, are filled with lung and
then sold as Burgundy snails.
"Lovers of fresh rooster combs are
imposed upon by substitute cut out
of hogs intestines.
Chopped artificial truffles are made
of black rubber, silk, or softened Ieath-
er, and even whole truffles are made
out OF roasted potatoes, which are Civ.
en- peculiar flavor by adding ether.
They are said to sell well.
''Fish spoiled In spite of ice and
borax are treated with salts of zinc,
aluminium and other metals. Rubbing
the fish with vaseline to give it a fresh
look and coloring the gilIs with fresh
blood or rOsin-a coalter color-is re-
sorted to. The latter is also used to
intensity the red color of inferior
crabs.
''Imparting greenish color to oys-
ters is another aduleration. An oys-
ter requires about one month in the
beds to acquire the greenish color. AS
this is too long time, the dealers help
them along with an artificial color.
1.-The chemists in the Paris municipal
laboratories have shown that tomato
jelly Is adulterated with turnips, and
powdered pepper contains a large ad-
mixture of powdered hardtack."

The Death Penalty.

A little thing sometimes results in
death. Thus mere scratch, insight
ficant cuts or puny boils have paid
the death penalty. 1t is wise to have
