A DEAF RACE. The Great Increase of Congenital Deaf Mutes. Speculations Suggested by Marriages Among the Silent. In a recent letter to Senator Hale upon tbe collection of statistics for the next census regarding the defective classes, Professor Alexander Graham Bell brings to light some very curious facts. It will no doubt surprise many to bo told, at a time when so much progress is being made in the treatment of deaf-mutes, the blind, the idiotic and the insane, and in surmounting the barriers which so long cut them off from the world, that their number is increasing much more rapidly than tho population. The census re¬ turns of 1880 showed an increase in 30 years of 400 per cent.,while tho increase of population was only a little over 100 per cent. Professor Bell declares that a careful examination of the census figures shows that in the case of deaf-mutes this is not an increase due to a more ac¬ curate enumeration, but a real and marked growth. This is dem¬ onstrated by examining the statistics of population by ages. It is found that there is a larger proportion of deaf mutes among the younger persons than among the older, and that there is, in fact, a steady proportionate increase, going down the scale of age, until quite young children are reached, hi 1850 there were reported 9S03 deaf-mutes out of a population of 23,000,000, while in 1880 there were reported 33,878 out of a population of 50,000,000—an increase more than double that of the popula¬ tion. Of those born deaf who were living in 1880 nearly one-third were un¬ der twenty years of age, and nearly one half were under thirty. There has been a great incr ease in re¬ cent years in the number of deaf-mutes who were not born deaf, but this is at¬ tributed to an epidemic of cerobro-spinal meningitis-, which is expected to pass away as other epidemics have done. The great increase among congenital deaf-mutes is ascribed to intermarriages. These began about seventy years ago, nnd have now become so common that Professor Bell believes that not less than 90 per cent, of the marriages of deaf mutes are with deaf-mutes. Out of 1443 cases of marriage, the statistics of which he has collected,'only 5 per cent, were with hearing persons. Deaf-mute children born of deaf-mute parents are now numbered by hundreds, and tho proportion of deaf¬ ness among the offspring, where this system of intermarriage is continued, goes on increasing. There are eases on record in which deafness has been handed down in this way through three, four, and even fivo generations. A number of distinguished scientists, most of whom arc experts on heredity, agree with Professor Bell in thinking that if this custom is maintained, it may result “in the formation of a deaf variety of the human race in America, in which all, or most, of the children will be bom deaf. ” This is a startling possibility in evo¬ lution backward in an enlightened age. Yet tbe motive leading to such mar¬ riages is obviously strong. The deaf mute finds in the deaf-mute the quickest comprehension and sympathy, and it is easy to seo why they choose their life oompanions among their own kind.— HetB York Tribune. An Ingenious Bat Trap. A writer in Chamber's Journal repeats the method which is in quite general use in some places for the extermination of gats. These animals are the wisest of domestic vermin, and any means taken for their destruction is, as a rule, quickly discovered by them; if not, the terror alone engendered by the ever-diminish¬ ing tribe is sufficient to cause them to flee the mysterious power which haunts them. Taking advantage of this trait, the writer in question constructed a tr ip for the rats. This was a water bar¬ rel carefully concealed, On the top there was a trap door (simply balanced by a pivot in the center), and beyond this some food was placed for which the rats had a strong liking. They could only get to this by walking over the ■door, and in order to entice them, the door wan fixed for about a week; then the bolt was drawn, and for several nights a plentiful supply of drowned rats rewarded the ingenuity of the rat killer, and the remainder of tho colony sought “fresh woods and pastures new.” Against Annexation. At the club. “Have you perfect con¬ fidence in Johnson, Mr. Allcash?'’ “Perfect confidence! Why, he’s been my cashier for twenty years. There isn’t an honester man in the world. But why do you ask such a question?” “Oh its all right, I suppose; only I heard him in here last night arguing with Stobbins against annexing Canada.” *- Chicago Herald, Bomance of the Postage Stamp. The postage stamp was first used ia Great Britian on May 6, 1840. While Americans are generally the first to adopt any new suggestion, it was not until July, 1847, that stamps were issued un¬ der national auspices, although the post¬ masters of Brattleboro, Millbury, Balti¬ more, New York, St. Louis and New Haven had prepared, at their own ex¬ pense, provisional issues before that time. While great Britain, however, was the country to take the initiative as regards postage stamps, Austria intro¬ duced the postal card ia 1873, while the United States gave tho newspaper band in 18 57, and the East Indies introduced the telegraph stamp. There are nearly two hundred and fifty countries now is¬ suing stamps, and the total number of all issues, both postal, revenue and en¬ velope, now exceeds forty-five thousand, for, in the superb catalogue of M. Moens, of Brussels (issued two years *g°)i 43,158 stamps were minutely and accurately described. The real credit for the introduction of the postage stamp belongs to Mr. Rowland Hill, although several parties have lately attempted to transfer to themselves the honor which rightly belongs to him. The introduction of the stamp is not without its romance. Over fifty years ago a traveler, passing through the Lake District in England, stopped at an inn where a postman was delivering a letter to a young girl. As she turned it over nnd over in her hand, he noticed that she appeared to be very dejected, for she had asked the price of the postage upon it and when she found that it was a shilling she sighed sadly, shook her head, said she had no money to pay for it, and, with tears in her eyes, returned it to the postman. The traveler, who was of a kindly disposition, inquired of the girl who 4he letter was from, and finding it was from her brother, offered to pay the postage, but it was only with considerable reluctance that the girl al¬ lowed him to do so. After the postman had departed, the traveler, who was im¬ pressed with the girl’s demeanor, asked what was the reason she did not want to receive the letter. She replied by say¬ ing that the letter was from her brqthcr, and that certain marks on the outside gave her all the information she desired, but that the letter itself contained no writing. “We arc so poor,’’she said “that we have adopted this mode of correspondence. Now, that is the rea¬ son I did not want you to pay for it.”— Mail and Express. Experience of a Dumb Bridegroom. A marriage was recently solemnized at Lundaff, Wales, which has attracted con¬ siderable attention, owing to an interest¬ ing incident in the life of one of tho contracling parties. The bride was Mary Jones, a deaf and dumb girl, and the groom David Davies, who, for sev¬ eral years, was also deaf and dumb. Davies was one of the sufferers by the memorable explosion at Penycraig Col¬ liery in 1880, for four years after which he was confined to his bed. lie then re¬ covered his health, but he remained ab¬ solutely deaf and dumb f rom the shock. The doctor who attended him advised him to try a shock somewhat similar to that which had caused his infirmity. A short time ago he placed himself as near as safety would allow to Where six shots were to be fired in the Bute pit, at Fro herbert, and at the sixth shot his hear¬ ing returned to him. Still he was dumb, but yesterday the missionary to the deaf mutes said something to Davies which put him in a passion and he involuntarily or instinctively made an attempt to ex¬ press his anger. To his amazement the power of speech came back and he now talks freely. He, however, says that talking makes his throat sore, and hi) tongue is made sore by hi3 teeth. Ho had been engaged to Miss Jones about a year.— QoodulVs Sun. An Ingenious Toy. An eccentric New Yorker, much given to hospitality, has concealed among the flowers on his dinner-table an artificial mocking-bird, which, at the pressure of an electric-wire by his foot, flutters and gives a musical chirp. Strangers arc amused by the ingenious toy, but his family and friends understand that the bird only flies and sings when a subject is broached which is likely to prove offensive or painful to one of the guests. A Russian boyar, in the days of Cather¬ ine, carried out a similar conceit by a rougher method. “When Demetri Paul ovski,” says tradition, “sat down to dine, a trumpeter stood beside him with his eyes fixed upon him. If any one at the table made a remark disagreeable to the prince, the trumpeter, at a signal from him, sounded a warning note, and the guest remained silent during the meal. If the offense was repeated, the trumpet sounded twice, and the guest was led from the table and his tongue cut out,” The American host can not resort to such radical measures, yet how often he sits in helpless agony longing to silence the tongue of some garrulous guest.— Argonaut. THINGS DOCTORS DO NOT KNOW. Their Icnorancn Illustrated la the Robin¬ son Poisoning Cases. There was a commotion among the doctors at a rooent meeting of the Massachusetts Medioo Legai for Society, when it was found that reporters secular newspapers were taking notes Pa¬ pers bearing specially on tho notorious liobin son arsenical poisoning cases had been an¬ nounced. Dr. Holt declared that there was general ig¬ norance of the symptoms of arsenical poisoning, and claimed that hocause of thi< ignorance t ie Robinson poisoning cases had gone on without arousing suspicions on the part of medical men. There were, he said, at least eight cases of criminal poisoning ; seven occurred within five years, and in one family, and the other was that of a relativo. Tho cases were all treated by physicians of large practice, prominent in the profession, and yet no suspicion of arsenical poisioning was aroused until an organization in which tho victims were insured tried to determine by investigation ly why so many persons died sudden¬ in this family. In supp >rt of his statement as to the ignor noranee of medical men of tho sj-mptoms of arsenical poisoning, the doctor remarked that certificates of death were given in five of the Robinson cases as follows : pueumonia, typhoid fever, disease. meningitis, bowel disease and Bright’s Thu startling disclosure of the stupid ignor¬ ance shown in (lie treatiu nt of those cases iB quite in keeping with the usual indiscretion manifested by the profession in the treatment of persons who are sufferers from tho slow and subtle poison which is generated in tho system fiom a distast'd state of the kidneys.

Human life is just a little too precious to the average individual to be sacrificed to the bigot¬ ry or ignoranco of others. Immense Vessels. In addition to tho 38 war ships of one kind or another now in construction by tho British, 70 more are to be laid down at a cost of £22,000,000, making SOI war ships by 1804. Of all tho war ves¬ sels of the United States, the largest and most powerful will be the Maine. She will be 310 feet long, with a displace¬ ment of 0,048 tons and a horse power of 9,000. She will have two batteries and her armor will be 11 inches thick. She will be a very ugly customer to attack. A Georgia physician writes to the Conititulion, of Atlanta, that the solution used in the hand grenades now offered cheaply so extensively made for taking sale is easily and salt, by twenty pounds of common of ten ammonia, pounds of sal am¬ moniac (muriate to be had of any druggist), nnd dissolving in seven gallons of water. When it is dis solved it can be bottled and kept oa£i in each room in the house. In of fire, one or two bottles should thrown with force into the burning place* hard enough to break them, and the fire will certainly be extinguished. That Is experienced by almost every ono at this season, and many people resort to Ilood's Sarsaparilla to drive away the languor and exhaustion. The blood, laden with Impurities which have been accumolat* int? for months, moves sluggishly through the velns, the mind falls to think quickly, and the body la still slower to respond. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is Just what Is needed. It purifies, vitalizes and en riches the blood, makes tho head clear, creates an appetite, overcomes that tired feeling, tones the nervous system, and imparts new strength and vigor to the whole body. Hood’s Sarsaparilla Is proven to bo so vastly superior to any other sarsa¬ parilla, or blood purifier, that ono has well said: “Its health-giving effects upon tho blood and entire human organism are as much more positive than the remedies of a quarter of a century ago as the steam power of to day Is iu advance of the slow and laborious drudgery of years ago.” “For years I was sick every spring, but last year took Hood’s Sarsaparilla and have not been sick since."—G.

It was a good thing for the locksmith, who is now the famous “muscle man of Dresden,’’ body whose him magnificently probably the develop¬ ed makes most renowned model in the world. In order to preserve for future artists an exact duplicate of his Royal extraordinary figure the director of the Saxon I’ovzellan fabrik at Meissen recently invited him there that a cast from life might be taken of the upper part of his body. It is said that “ins muscular development is so complete and detained of that even the least and slightest cord every muscle stands forth prominently, and his whole body looks as if it were work. woven ter gether or plaited like basket His muscles have such a hardness that they feel to tho touch bs if they were oarved in wood.

A scone was introduced in which a child was the end, kidnapped when all from its made mother, happy, and at were the restoration of the child was taken for granted.
