‘•Don’t you often have trouble with
snoring passengers ?” asked a reporter
of a sleeping-cdr conductor.
“Don’t . ?” repeated the conductor,
with fervor. “Oh. no! never, by any
means ! Why, there’s one tuan, a drum,
tuer for a Chicagb house, who crosses
with me regularly fcVery week, who’d
drive a deaf corpse crazy. He's a little
bit of tt tnafi, and don’t weigh much
more than a hundred, but he cart Snore
for twenty. He lays himself out, and
falls asleep the uiiuute he get the cover
over him. 'Thdh the fun begins. I’ve
known him to have the whole car awake
and yelling fur me and the ponef; and
he snoring away as calm and peaceful
as a fetlby. The last trip he made wr
had A minister with us, a big, jolly gen
tleman, who had the berth ne tt to fciin.
He snore*! for half an hour at a stretch,
and the poor preacher oould’/t get a
wink of sleep. But he didn't say any
thing till the others had «ived up veil
ing in despair. Tj^n the drunuier
lulled over jt/hi- side, and, giving a
kind of cooking snoHt like it man hav
ing his throat eut, he at >pped snoring.
For about half a second there was dead
silence in the car. Then we heard the
minister say :
“Thank God! Tite scoundrel’s
dead !”
‘•Women are Al bad for snoring as
men, and much worse tempered with
one another about it. We carried a
theatrical company a month ago. Actors
and actresses don’t often take sleepers;
I hey ltavte A nack of making themselves
comfortable in a couimen. seat. But
this party had been ^tfavelii'g »H the
day before and acting till midnight, and
was tired out. Well, they turned in,
and pretty soon an old maid, who had
the coDer berth, began to raise Cain
about one of (hem snoring. She woke
the whole party up, and 1 never heard
such a chorus in my b >rn days. First
one began to pretend to snore, and then
anotbe 1 ' and another took it up. For a
whole hour they kept at it, and only-
stopped when they hadn’t strength
enough lelt to go on - Vou can believe
the old uu,d didn’t have any remarks
on snoring to make after that sere
nade.”
'THE ACHIEVEKENT Of YOM-
TOWH
The army of Lord Cornwallis which
was surrendered at York town was 8.000
strong and took posse.ssion of (hat place
on the 1st of August, 1781, under or
ders from Sir Henry Clinton, to take
and hold a strong defensible position in
Virginia. The whole besieging force
amounted to about 16,000 men, of whom
7,000 were French and the remainder
continentals and militia. The invest
ment was C unplete on the oQth of that
month. The place was taken by parallel
approaches, the first of which was estab-
li-bed on October 9. On the 11th the
second parallel was opened. A portion
of the British works was assaulted and
carried on the n'gbt of the 14th. and
tie captured ground included in the
parallel. The French luss iti this attack
was about 100, and that of the Ameri
cana much less. Cornwallis’ retreat bjr
sea was cut, off by the French fleet of
thirty-seven ships under Count De-
Grasse. The British Geucral made a
sortie on the 16th which entirely failed.
On the 17th he proposed to capitulate,
and terms bavin? been agreed upon
surrendered on the 19th, his whole
force consisting of 7,247 regular troops,
840 sailors and 106 guns. The total
British loss during the siege was over
950 men.
The important part in this closing en
terprise and battle of the war taken by
the French appears from the above facts,
and will account for the conspicuous
part wh cli the descendants of our dis
tinguished allies Will have in the Cen«
tennial celebration which opened with
appropriate religiou- services yesterday.

’ THE L0TTEBY OF ASSASSINA
TION”
Senator Edmunds, the present Repub
lican leader at Washington, denounces
the election of Mr. Bayard as president
of the Senate as a prize drawn by the
Democracy in the lottery of assassina
tion.
Mr. Edmunds seems to forget that
the assassination was entirely Republi
can.
Guiteau, the demoniac murderer who
fired the deadly shot at President Gar
field, is, like Mr. Kdmnods, an ultra
Republican. lie says he was divinely
inspire i to kill the President in order
to reunite the quarreling factions of the
Republican party. Except by this mur-
d.T, he could not see any other means
of keeping Democracy out of power.
So far us can be gathered from their
public utterances, GuiteaU and Ed
munds seem to be about equaly irritional
regarding the result? that might follow
from the restoration of the Democracy
to the control of tile government - —New

An erect bodily attitude is of vastly
more importance to heulth than most peo
ple imagine. Crooked positions, if niam-
tariied for any length of time, are always
injurious, whether in sitting, standing or
lying posture, whether sleeping or waking.
To sit with the body leaning forward ou
tile stomach, or to one side with the heels
elevated on a level with the head, is not
only in bad taste, but very detrimental te
health. It cramps the stomach, presses
th* vitld. organs, interrapts the free mo
tions of the chest, and enfeebles the func
tions of the thoracic and abdominal or
gans. and in fact, unbalances the whole
muscular system. Many children become
slightly humpbacked- and severely round-
shouldered by sleeping with the head rais
ed m a high pillow. When any person
fin-Js it is easier to sit or walk or sleep in
a croocked position than a straight one,
such a person may be sore bis muscular
system is badly deranged, and the more
careRi! he is to preserve a straight or up
right positicn again the better.
