ALBANY WEEKLY HERALD: SATURDAY APRIL 8, J893.
_
THE 8T0BY OF A DOG.
A Itrlght tittle Canine Was Befriended by
an Athletic Young Woman.
The other day a well dressed man
and woman were walking in one of
the up town streets. Attention was
attracted to them by the antics of a
blue Skye which capered from one
side to the other, leaping at their
heels in the most extravagant 6pirit.
.Not long after some boys were teas
ing a dog in an area. A young wo
man, whose heart goes out to all the
things that have four legs and cannot
talk, put on her hat and jacket and
went to the rescue. It was the same
dog, now lying in an evident stupor.
The young woman picked up the dog
and carried it to the apple woman at
the comer, whom Bhe bribed to take
care of it.
The dog revived and won the apple
woman’s heart. She took him to the
stand every day, where he kept sen
try and warned off the boys. His
funny capers and cheerful spirits
made him known to everybody in the
neighborhood. He became the espe
cial friend of the athletic young men
whose training ground is back of the
old woman’s apple Btand, where they
let him in for a fine run.
On Sunday evening he darted across
the street with a bark of joy to an
approaching couple. He leaped at
their sides, he tugged at their clothes
with evei'y expression of a dog’s de
light. "Why, it’s Bruno I" they ex
claimed, and at the sound of his name
the dog leaped higher than beforo.
“You see,” said tlie woman, "ho was
our dog. We were fond of him, but
he would chew up things.” “When
he chewed up a young lady’s $7 bon
net and we had to pay for it," added
the man, “we felt wo must get rid of
him,” resumed the woman, “so we
fed him on biscuit soaked in whisky
until he was drunk; then we took
him out to walk so we could lose him.”
!‘No, wedon’t want himany more,"
said the man. “Yes, he is very fond
of us; goodby, Bruno,” and this
couple of amiable heathons passed
on. Bruno has been stolen now, and
the apple woman, the athletes and
the neighborhood mourn.—New York
Evening Sun.
Cause of lueomnla,
Now, it happens in this stirring age
of ours that men, and women, too,
are bo much intellectually worked or
so emotionally disturbed that their
brains have more to do than they
can accomplish and yet preserve their
normal balance.'
Mental work, whether it be simply
perceptional, intellectual, emotional
or volitional, requires that an in
creased amount of blood shall flow
to the brain; hence during mental
exertion of any kind the cerebral
vessels become distended, owing to
the increased volume of blood they
contain, and they remain in this con
dition as long as the exertion is con
tinued, If it is too intense, or if it
be persovered in for too long a period
without there being alternations of
rest, the vessels lose their contraoti-
bility and remain iu a permanently
enlarged state. They are therefore
not able to contract so ns to produce
sleep. A state of cerebral congestion
is established, and wakefulness is the
result.
Such persons go to bed, perhaps
feeling as if they would sleep, but no
sooner do then* heads touch their pil
lows than their minds becomo inordi
nately active, and they lie awake hojir
after hour recalling the events of the
day, or else indulging in the most
preposterous thoughts. Tho blood
vessels will not empty themselves,
simply because tlioy have lost the
power to do so. They are like the in
din rubber bandB that we put around
big packages and leave undisturbed
lor a long time. Wo try to usethem
again, and we find that tho elasticity
which they- once possessed has gone.

Review.
Working I)uys of tho World.
*1116 Working Days of Different
Nations” forms the subject of some
interesting data given by a Polish
statistician. Orthodox Russia, with
her numerous saints' dayB and secu
lar holidays, naturally stands at the
head of the liBt ns the least laborious
of civilized nations.
The names of the countries enum
erated, with the number of their sta
tutory working days, are thus given:
Interior Russia, 287; Canada, 278;
Scotland, 275; England, 278; Portu
gal, 283; Russian Poland, 288; Spain,
200; Austria and the Russian Baltic
provinces, 205; Italy', 208; Bavaria,
Belgium, Brazil and Luxembourg,
300; Saxony, France, Finland, Wur-
temberg, Switzerland, Denmark and
Norway, 302; Sweden. 304; Prussia
and Ireland, 305; United States, 300;
Holland, 308, and Hungary, 312.
If these figures hi- approximately
correct, they are, to say the least of
them, not a little surprising. While
the orthodox Russian, who knows
his saints’ calendar by heart, is tho
least laborious, the Hungarian car
ries the honors for unremitting in
dustry if he indulge in only one day's
relaxation exclusive of tho whole
year’s Sundays.—Lodz Gazette.

Strange Nows From Boston.
There is a current newspaper story
about an Ohio cow that gives black
tnilk. It is an unlikely story on its face,
but not so inherently impossible as tho
one from the east that alleges a desire on
tho part of tho people of Boston to run
electric street cars across their common.
It Is much easier to believe that an Ohio
cow would give black milk, or even rum
punch, than that Boston should seriously
meditate ullowing her common and the
children thereon to be run over by the
cars.
Buch a proposition is not what we have
a right to expect of Boston. Of Chicago
or Seattle or Duluth or some other town
that Is in a desperate harry it might be
credible, because those towns have to
hurry or else thoy get passed by. But
with Boston it is different, or at least it
ought to be. No rival threatens to pass
her on her road. 1 cannot think of any
reason why her citizens Bhould bo in
such driving haste that the stroet cars
may not continue to skirt the common
instead of crossing it.—Harper’B Weekly.
rlnnt Forms Seen In Coal.
The Buhstnnco of coal has been so
compressed that tho forms of the
plants composing it cannot usually
be seen, but when a pieco of it is
made so thin that it will transmit
light and is then subjected to u. pow
erful microscope its vogetablo" struc
ture may readily be distinguished.
Immediately under every soparato
scam of coal there is a stratum of
what is known as fireclay. This
stratum is always present and con
tains in great abundance the fossil
impressions of roots and stems and
twigs, Bhowung that it was once tlie
soil from which vegetation grew lux
uriantly.
It is common also to find fossil tree
stems lying mashed flat between the
layers of black slate which form tho
roofs of coal mines as well as the
impressions of the leaves, nuts and
seeds which fell from these trees
while they were living. In some
beds of cannel coal whole trees have
been found with roots, branches,
leaves and seeds complete, and all
converted into the Bame quality of
coal as that by which they were sur
rounded.—Washington Star.
A Scone of Horror at a Funeral.
A terrible accident occurred at the fu
neral of A. Seriber at Lamson’s. The
service was being held at Jacob Seriber’s
residence, when the floor of the dwelling
suddenly gave way. and the coffin and
the people were precipitated into tlie cel
lar. The cries of the inured and the
shrieks of nervous women, together with
the presence of tho dead, combined in
creating a scene of horror that thoso who
witnessed will never forget. To add to
the horror, a stovo filled with burning
coals fell and burst among the victims,
who were pinned down in the debris.
Fortunately no one was killed, nor, it is
hoped, fatally injured.—Cor. Utica (N.
Y.) Herald and Gazette.
A Luminous Tree.
One of tho most remarkable of trees
or shrubs grows noar some springs
about 12 miles north of Tusoftrora,
It is six or seven feet high, with n
trunk which at its base is three times
the size of an ordinary man’s wrist,
It has numberless branches and
twigs, nnd resombles somewhat tho
barberry'. Its truly wonderful char
acteristic is its luminosity, which is
so great that on tho darkost night it
can ho plainly seen a mile away. A
person standing near could read tho
finest print by its light.
Its foliage is oxtromoly rank, nnd
its leaves resemble somewhat those
of the aromatic bay troo in shape,
size nnd color. Tho luminous prop

which can be transferred to the hand
by rubbing and with tho tranfer the

the leaf disappears. Tho luminosity
is thought to be due to a parasitic
form. Tlie Indians regard it with
superstition and will not come near
it even in daytime. They give it a
name which means “witch tree.”

him again in our midst. He remarked
sinoe he has been here, that lie has
been introduced as the fattier of Dr,

convinced that Dr. Win. G. Anderson
Is the “worthy soil of 11 noble sire.”

An Oak Tree In Full Leaf In Winter.
In the Goyt valley, about two miles
from Whaley bridge, there is an old oak
tree which has not yet lost last year's
leaves. Every twig and branch is still
densely covered, comparatively vei-y few
having fallen since tho summer. Even
the late intense frost does not seem to
have affected them or lessoned them in
the least. They are of course quite brown
and crisp, but the stalks are yet quite
elastic and.pliable and adhere very tena
ciously to the stems. It requires a good
pull to detach them. Tlie tree presents
a remarkable appearance, which is
heightened by contrast with those sur
rounding it, all bare and leafless.—Lon

The Pugnacious Anglo-Saxon.
Men of peace 1 No, we are nothing
of the sort. The modern Anglo-Saxon
is a fighter, as his savage ancestors
were. He goes into war with a zest
as keen as any other nation’s and a
pluck which is—or at least he thinks
it is—a little better than any. Be
tween his wars he fights the lesser
battles of the football field, the pugil
istic ring, the baseball diamond or
looks on and shouts approval while
others fight. His boys learn to dou
ble their fists almost as soon ns to
walk. Their favorite Bible stories
are of David’s fight with the Philis
tine giant and tho muscular exploits
of Samson. They go to school to he
taught to . venerate the classic deeds
of the fleet footed Achilles and the
mastorful Herakles, and to regard os
the modern successor of those an
cient heroes the youth who among
his schoolmates has the quickest eye
and the most powerful biceps. How
can we ever forgot that “ ’tis excel
lent to have a giant’s strength” when
we are reminded of the truth of tho
adage ut almost every turn of our
daily lives?—R. R. Williams in Mun

English View of Our CookH.
The American is an admirable cook
—in theory; in practice indeed lie
may foil. The rush of modern ideas
is too great for him. The sewing ma
chine, the reaper and the corn olo-
vator take up too mucli time. The
application of electricity and steam
to the arts of peace and tho ever pros,
ent cares brought on him by tlie
working of the finest constitution in
the world distract him from his boil
ing and his baking. He has indeed
the same interesting reason for nog
lecting his clam chowder and his
baked pork and beaus, that most in
genious and admirable of all Ameri
can kitchen products, that our King
Alfred had for letting his hostess’
cakes burn—immersion In the poli-

It was for Dr. I’nlmer and Ills choir
to give the crowning success to tills
already successful week. In brilliance
ami enjoyment the concert last even
ing was unsurpassed.
The choir arrayed In full evening
dress was a dazzling sight, toned
down by the sober garments of the
men.
The beauty of (he fair women of our
Southland shown upon an Immense
audience who eagerly awaited the
opening of the programme.
The first pleoe was the “Bridal
Chorus,” by the oholr. This was a
difficult selection, but was faultlessly
rendered.
The next wsb n violin solo, “Trau-
merie,” by Miss Palmer. This little
lady proved herself a perfect mistress
of the violin, which seemed to voice
the dreams of her pure soul.
Then followed a duett, “I Feel Thy
Presence,” by Mrs. IV. L. Davis and
Mr. vonGundel. 'Their line voices
blended beautifully In this sweet song.
Mrs. J. M. Tift sang “Welcome Pret
ty Primrose,” with violin nnd piano
accompaniment, and her voice never
gave more pleasure or was sweeter
than it was last evening.
The instrumental solo by Miss Set
tle Sterne, a selection from Luoretia
Borgia, was played with the brilliance
characteristic of all her performances.
Tlio most beautiful selection of the
evening was the “Slumber Song,” by
the choir. This is an exquisitely
tender song, and every word was
heard distinctly.
Then came the treat of the evening,
a solo by Mrs. Simmons, of Dawson.
It was a selection from the “Barber of
Seville.” Mrs. Simmons possesses a
magnificent voice and her rendition of
this song was truly artistic. Dr.
Palmer announced that no encores
would be allowed, but lie received a
request from the vast audienee that
Mrs. Simmons favor them with another
selection, lie announced that she
would give her encore next Monday
evening.
Mrs. Geiger’s performance of the
march from Tannhauscr was bril
liantly executed, and was most enthu
siastically received, by the audience.
Mrs. Geiger is a great favorite.
The next piece was a song, “Dear
Heart,” by Mrs. Pearson, whose sweet
voice charmed her hearers.
“The Soldier’s Farewell,"by the choir,
was beautiful.
Mrs. J. L. Hyatt, of Fort Valley,
sang “Velvet and Rags” in a bright
style and was heartily applauded. •
The quartette “Greeting to Spring,”
wasone ofthegems of the evening, it
was faultlessly rendered in perfect
time by Mrs. J. M. Tift, Mrs. J. II.
Pearson, Mrs. Wm. T.ockett and Mrs.
A. P. Coles.
The programme closed with a selec
tion from St. Cecillia Mass, sung in
Latin by the choir with the solo sus
tained by Mrs. Tift.

back nnd left again In 1874, since
which time he hns never returned
again up to last Friday.
Just nineteen years have elapsed

bany; and he told a reporter of the
IIkkat.d, yesterday, that he would
never have dreamed that Albany had
grown so much. The contrast, he-said,
between Albany nineteen years ago
and of to-day was too wonderful for
Ills mind to. comprehend. Very few
of the familiar faces that used to
recognize him in social concourse are
left, and he finds almost a new Albany
instead of the one of his childhood
days.
Mr. Jackson’s talk was veiy rernin-
