ger» oo a train on • We«t< rn railroad who
allow' d theniwlrew to lie "gone through”
« trio of robber*, and the editor
<"l<w<l by dubbing them a act of arrant
coward,. Tliat’a the way it probably
looked to a great runny others, but let u»
vu w th. matter from U.c inside of the
tenia.
Fisc or sia years ago I was booming
along over an Ark'm-na railroad, and the
.tiro' was 1 1 o'clock p. rn. 'Die one
sleeper on the tr.m had every berth
taken, and the two passenger coaches
were prilly well filled with men, women
and children. There were twelve men
in the sleeper. Os these eight had their
wives along. I had a revolver, and I
presume most of the other men had. We
were rill asleep, and the train had stopped
St u watcr-tunk in a lonely upot, when
three desperadoes boarded the train.
One got on between the two passenger
coil- lies, threw open both doors, and
standing on the platform in such away
that he could guard both coaches, he
shouted:
'’Now, then, the first one who makes
a move will get a dose of buckshot!"
11. had a double-barreled shotgun,
and had he fired Into either car three or
four or five people must
have been lilt. The second rob
ber got on between the Inst couch mid
the sleeper, and the third on the rear
platform of the sleeper itself. Both doors
of this last car wcru thrown open to
gether and the two men entered from op
posite ends. We were awakened from
sweet slumber by one of them culling:
‘‘Now, gents, turn out your valuables!
Wr don’t want to hurt nobody, but if a
trigger is pulled we’ll open tire on the
whole car."
Well, now, what would that belliger
ent editor have done under the < ircuiu
stancosf They were desperate moa, bout
on desperate work, and held human life
as worth no more than a pound of dog
moot, flis revolver would have been in
his puiilaloons at the toot of the birth,
a* mine was. His wife would
hav< beggi d him for God's sake to give
up < verything, a» mine did, and us all
tlie other wives did. He would have
teaUrod, a* we all did, that no revolver
could bo poked out from behind the cur
tains without lining seen in a second, and
thut one single shot from any one of us
would have exposed each side of the dir
to a fusiladoof buckshot. It would have
been ihn same had we been up and
dressed and in our seats. There would
havu licen a num to face us and another
behind our backs. Just take a seat on a
chair, and s«o how quick you can
pull a pistol from your hip
pocket. Note the movements you
have to make, and then as
•ert, if you dare, that you could gel the
drop on two men whose hawk eyes were
watcluug tile move of every linger.
The conductor and baggageman and
brak email were in the baggage cur.
They all had revolvers, but they saw at
onoe that a shot from them would be the
death of three or four passengers. A
bullet may mis* by a hair's breadth;
buck-shot can't help but hit.
The two men cauie down the car, each
with his gun in his left hand, and knife
and revolver in his belt, and stopped at
each berth. I had $lB5 and a gold
watch and a diamond pin. My wife had
$134 of the money and the watch and
pm oeforc the fellows got to us. 1
handed out thu other fifty, and a* it was
urumpled up it looked like a big roll.
' AU right—that's business!" chuckled
the man ns ho received it. "Now for
your tickers."
"Never l«<i one."
"Ob, you didn’t I I'll look for that as
I come back.”
In thia way the two fellows passed
each other, taking whatevci was handed
out, and as they reached the ends of the
car one of them fired a shot which went
through the roof, and nix: moment they
wet'- off. No one in the passenger
co u ' os had been robbed, and no one on
the train had boon injured. Why f Be
cause all had exhibited < >■ nm-m sense.
That so-called bravery which the editor
referred to sighs for, mi lit .av -tempted
some one to lire his pistol. The result
W< U d Lave been the kil'ing of hall of
us; those men boarded th ■ train with
the delcrmiiiulion to kill whoever re
s.stod them, and they probably would
hi ve dune it.
And let me say that am- uc the "cow
ar Is" in that sleeper w rr live > x rmy
officers, a Mivissipian wl bad fought
il.rce duels, and two <ir three other meu
who would have shot down thi tn in who
impugned their brav«ry.~ [Delroit Free

Changes in the Weather.
The wsattier does not change as much
as some people imagine. We are apt to
think the biggest storms, the deepest
snows and the coldest and the hottest
days existed in our childhood. In the
last century and in the early part of this
one, according to Captain W. H. Gard
ner, the extremes of weather wore as re
markable az liny one correspondent can
recall. In 1701 there were recorded at
Biloxi, Miss., a winter cold that in
stantly froze water poured into a
tumbler, and an August heat that made
lalror impossible except for two hours in
the morning and two in the evening. In
the winter of 1740 water was iroz n
solid in the houses of Charleston, 8. C.
In 1748 ami 1708 the Mississippi River
at New Orleans was frozen from thirty
to forty feet from the shore*. In 1823
skating was possible on all the standing
water In and around Mobile. In 1827-
28 th : ground at Alabama, Georgia,
and South Carolina was frozen hard
from December to March. A flood
in the lower Mississippi and a
"fcatful hurricane” on the Gulf coast
were recorded in 1723; another destruc
tive hurricane in 1732, and overflows of
the lower Mississippid from January till
June, 1735; after which came a lon >
drought, and a lower river than had ever
been known. In a hurricane at Dau
phin Island, in September, 1740, a four
pound cannon was moved by the wind
eighteen feet from where it had been
lying. Other hurricanes of extreme
fury were recorded in October, 17711,
August, 1780, and August, 1781. In the
last year the Mississippi at New Orleans,
the Attakapa-, and the Opelousas, were
higher then ever before known. The
Mississippi at St. Irniis was equally high
in the fined of 1785, and in July. 1884,
and it reached its highest recorded flood
in 1844. The flood of the Ohio River in
1832 was not exceeded till 1883. The
year 1840 was one of almost continual
drought in Alabama and Mississippi,
and prayer meetings were held in view
of the apprehended famine.
The Bower Bird.
The method of selecting a certain lo
cality for a trysting-place finds its per
fection among certain birds of Australia,
popularly known as the bower Irir Is.
The edifices that some of them erect
show a wonderful amount of what in a
human builder would be termed intelli
gence. One of the first was discovered
by Mr. Coxen of Brisbane, New South
Wales. It was made by the bird known
to science as the Ptilonorhynehus holo
soriceus. The "hall” was exhibited by
Mr. Coxen in the museum of natural
history in Sydney and many pirsons re
fused to believe that it was made by
birds, believing it the work of sotno
human being. When the mating time
comes a place is selected ns u flooring
and covered with twigs of a similar
length, all carefully interwoven. Upon
tho centre of this the walls are erected—
of twigs inserted into the floor in rows a
short distance apart, so that the tops
fall together and touch each other,
forming a small room, quite watertight,
as the twigs of the roof are also inter
woven one with another. When com’
plete, the structure is about three feet
in length. Ono would imagine this
quite enough, but the bird is not
only a builder but a collector of bric-a
brac, and as soon as its work of building
is finished it collects all kinds of curious
objects—bits of bone, colored glass
from camps, gaudy shells and insects—
m fact, anything of a striking nature,
so that nt some halls over a bushel of
this material is found. In this hall the
courtship is carried on, the male follow
ing its mate about, picking up the fancy
articles as if to call her attention to
them; in fact, they are love offerings
and evidently intended as an appeal to
her esthetic tastes. —[San Francisco
Call.
Give the Boy a Chance.
Teach your boy—if you would give
him the larger chance the Creator in
tended he should have—either a trade or
a business, and so give him the chance
of bis hands. Educate him liberally,
richly if you can, but above all educate 1
him practically. Keep him out of a
profession if you can. There are only
two or three professions left, and they
are starving to death, the most of them.
The law profession is marked for decay;
the world is coming into the larger wis
dom of less litigation and more arbitra
tion. The medical profession is holding
its empire by frailer and frailer hand, as
the people are escaping m >ro an ! more
from the nherited diseas s transmitted
through superstition an 1 |H'rpetuated by
imagitmtion ami fear. Such things as .
dentistry, newspapers, et.-., are not pro
fess. ons; they are skilled labor. Give
tho boy a chance. If he is to be a law
yer he may build the proud'templo of a
great reputation, but his son cannot in
herit it, and no one can live in it but
himself. The great temples that the
pr. udest lawyers rear by day disappear
in the night. They are fair and noble '
and imposing; but they are raised in a
day and pa-s away in s day, and no one
Ise can enter them. The mechanic
erects tho true palaces. Many others
ecu live in them, aud they stand for i
thousands of people to live in, and live i
on, after their builders are gon?. —[Des

ABSINTHJE_SLAVES.
1 Deplorable Effect of a Most
Pernicious Stimulant.
, i
Ingredients the Drug. People who
Take it, The Bseult Produced.
Absinthe is supposed to Ire made in
| France and Switzerland, and this sup
position is based upon the fact that
"Somebody ct fils" appears amid a lot of
1 French on the label, with the name
Paris and a red seal with a French in
l scription ornamenting the cork. Swiss
I absinthe is , said to be the best, but
I
whether nny of the good kind ever goes
to this country is unknown. The ab
sinthe is made by pounding up the
leaves and flowering tops of different
species of wormwood and macerating
them in alcohol. After soaking, the
mixture is distilled, a little anise oil is
added, and the emerald liquor obtained
is the re d absinthe. When tumeric and
indigo and blue vitriol enter into its
composition, as it does in adulterations,
then it is really a splendid drink. Any
man who would dr nk it would surely
put an enemy into his mouth to steal
away his brains, but it would be only a
I petty larceny, after all.
Powerful as a stimulant, it has its cul
minates in a terrible reaction, and like
every drug, it is resorted to, to
■ cure the evil it has caused, and
eventually enslaves the man or woman
who toys with it too freely. Os course,
all men do not become slaves to it, as
I all men do not become opium fiends who
I “hit" the pipe. But it’s a bad thing to
bo accustomed to. Tho drip is the
fashionable way to drink it, bat fashion
becomes forgotten by the absinthe slave,
and he soon drifts into taking it un
diluted and in enormous doses, just as
the morphine victim becomes accustomed
to taking enough of the sleepy drug to
kill half a dozen men. Its terrible re
sults have never become, in this city, a
matter of scientific observation or of
restrictive legislation, and, judging
from tho drinking peculiarities of Ameri
cans, they never will be.
In the eastern cities, however, im
ported victims of the drug are often
seen, and in France, Italy and Switzer
land it is regarded the greatest curse.
Its use in the army and navy of France
is prohibited by law. It came into
notice at the time of the Algerian war
' from 1844 to 1847, when it was recom
mended for use by the soldiers in their
liquor as a preventive of fever. It
developed in a few years that it was
ruining the army. Observation by
medical men resulted in discoveries that
deadly as it was when pure, it was ren
dered even more so by adulterations. Its
use in the first place, impaired the di
gestive organs and spoiled the appetite.
As a necessary consequence, sleeplessness
followed, with all the terrible torture
that that implies. The minds of the ab
sinthe fiends became deranged; they saw
beautiful visions, such as it is alleged
the hasheesh'caters only know. They be
came exalted and pitched to a high key,
nnd then there came the most terrible
depression, ending often in suicide and
oftener still in imbecility. Loss of brain
and nerve power, degeneration of the
muscles aud all the moral perversions
springing therefrom were among its ef
| sects.
Physical decay of ;the most disgust
ing kind was noticed in the victims, and
they had to be kept from public view.
These in one generation were not enough,
but like the curse of the Almighty the
terrible results of the drink extended to
succeeding generations' in imbecility,
distortion and diseases most terrible. On
this discovery the army and navy were
forbidden to use the liquor, but the
| people were left to drink it, and in all
the big cities to-day tho absinthe fiend
is as promiscuous as the opium, mor
phine and chloral victims are in America

From Frog to Man.
A paper on skin-grafting from the frog
to man was read at a recent meeting of
the Societe de Biologic, in Paris, by Dr.
i Dubousquet-Laborderie. The experi
ment was trie ! in the case of a man
whose feet had been burned by molten
iron. On one of the wounds Dr. Du
bousquet put four grafts of human skin;
on the other four grafts from the skin
of a frog. All of them took firm hold
on the wounds. The frog-skin grafts
retained their color a few days, after
ward changing to the color of the human
skin. The healing process progressed
rapidly, owing in part to the strict anti
septic precautions taken.
One at a Time.
A counsel thought that he would over
come Lord Norbury on the bcnclr. One
day his lordship was charging a jury,
and the address was interrupted by the
braying of an ass. “What noise is
thatlF cried Lord N rburv. "’Tis
only the echo of the court, my lord,”
answered the counsel. Nothing discon- 1
certed, the judge resumed hi- aldresss, :
but soon tho barrister was compelled to '
interpose with technical objections to
the charge. While stating them the ass ■
again brayed. "One at a time, if you ;
please,” remaiked his lordship with a '
1 sarcastic smile.—[American Law Re- :

The Senses as Ass eted by Sex.
If the senses are taken seriatim it will
be evident thnt they are not parallel in
men and women. The latter possess, in
a much greater degree, the perfection
of the sense of touch; those occupations
that require extreme delicacy of manip
ulation, such as lace-making, embroid
ery, bead-stringing, etc., are therefor;
usually followed by women. As re
gards the sense of hearing we are not
aware of any experiments or observa
tions on the relative perfection of the
sense in the two sexes; and the same
may be said as regards tho sense of
sight, which appears to be equally acute
in women and in men. In the extreme
delicacy of taste it is probable that men
excel. Whether they do so naturally,
or in consequence of the cultivation of
men’s palates, is, perhaps, a moot ques
tion; but that they excel not only as
gourmands but also as gourmets may bt
accepted as an established fact, and the
accurate perception of the delicate shades
of difference distinguishing different
brands and vintages of wine is much
more frequently found in men than in
women. As regards the sense of smell,
some exceedingly conclusive experi
ments have been made by some Ameri
can savants which appear to subvert our
pre-conceived opinions. The experi
ments were performed with prussic acid
and other strongly odorous substances on
forty-four males and thirty-eight fe
males, and it was found that in nearly
all cases the sense of smell was about
double as acute in men as in women.
The cause of tho difference in this mat
ter between men and women is quite un
known, as i? tho object of the distinc
t.on; but it has one practical bearing
that may be borno in mind. The em
ployment of strong and potent perfumes
by women may depend on their less
acute sense of smell; and they would do
well to bear in mind tho fact that odors
; and perfumes which may be quite pleas
ant to them may be almost overpower
ing and decidedly unpleasant to indi
viduals of the other sex.— London. Queen.
Preparing for War.
Curious and ingenious methods are
being introduced to increase the effi
ciency of the European armies. In
France pigeons are being trained to
carry messages backward and forward
between two given points on the follow
ing clever plan: The carrier pigeon
will naturally fly back to its cote; but
being kept there without grain or water
the bird will return to the point whence
it came in order to procure food. Thus
in a case of a city being beleaguered the
pigeon would traverse the lines twice in
a day, eating at one point away in the
country and domesticating at the other
uithinthe walls, thus supplying an in
valuable line of communication. In
Germany the infantry are supplied with in
telligent watch dogs for the outposts, who
scent aud detect danger long oefore the
sentry is aware of it, while the cavalry
are trained to swim streams, leading their
horses by the bridles, the latter carrying
the soldier’s arms and accoutrements.
The latest idea, however, comes from
Russia, where the minister of war has
ordered that in all the infantry and
calvary corps a certain number of officers
and men shall in future supply part of
their time in shooting and hunting game.
The object is explained to be to combine
this with reconnoitering work, thus en
abling the troops to acquire a practi
cal knowledge of the districts in which
they may be stationed, and gradually
training a class of men specially fitted to
undertake dangerous and difficult per
sonal expeditions in time of war. San
Francitco Chronicle.
Transferring Sickness.
The chief French surgeons and medi
cal professors have for some time been
carefully studying the effects of mes
merism on the female patients of the
Salpetriere hospital, Paris, and M.
Babinski, a clinical surgeon of that es
tablishment, has just affected a series of
experiments the result of which would
seem to open up a new future for medi
cal science. M. Babinski tried to prove
that certain hysterical symptoms could
be transferred by the aid of the magnet
from one patient to another. Ho took
two subjects, one a dumb woman af
flicted with hysteria and the other a
female who was in a state of hypnotic
trance. A screen was placed between
the two'and the hysterical woman was
then put under the influence of a strong
magm t. After a few moments she was
rendered dumb, while speech was sud
denly restored to the other. M. Babin
ski also effected temporary cures of
paralysis in the same manner. Luckily
for the healthier patients however, their
borrowed pains and symptoms did not
last long, and they were saved from a
calamity almost similar to that which
befel Dr. Jeckyl when he swallowed too
muA -a'ts and irrevocably became Mister
Hyde— London Telegraph.

Too Much for the Judge.
A nice little boy, reared in the intel
lectual and heterodox atmosphere of Bos
ton, happened to be a witness in a case
in Cincinnati, and the question arose as
to his being old enough to understand
the nature of an oath, so the Judge in
vestigated him:
"Well, Wendall," he said kindly, "do
you know where bad little boys will go
when they die • ”
"No, sir,” replied the boy with con
fidence.
"Goodness gracious I ” exclaimed the
Judge, in shocked surprise; "don't you
know they will go to hell?”
"No, sir; do you?”
"Os course I do.”
‘ How do you know it?”
“Theßible says so.”
"Is it true?”
"Certainly it is.”
"Can you prove it?' 1
"No, not positively; but we take it on
faith,” exclaimed the Judge.
"Do you accept that kind of testimony
in this court?" inquired the boy, cooly.
But the Judge didn’t answer; he held
up his hands and begge d the lawyers to
take the witness.
Wretched, Indeed,
Are those whom a confirmed tendency to b!¥
lousness, subiect to the various and changeful
■ympt< ms indicative of liver complaint.
Nausea, sick headache, constipition, furred
tongue, an unpleasant breath, a dull or sharp
pain in the neighborhood of the affected organ,
impurity of the blood and loss of appetite, sig
nalize it as one of the most distressing, as it is
one of the most common, of maladies. There
is, however, a banign specific, for the disease,
and all its unpleasant manifestations. It is
the concurrent testimony of the public and the
medical profession, that Hoste: ter's Stomach
Bitters is a medicine which achieves results
speedily felt, thorough and benign. Besides
rectifying liver disorder, it invigorates the
feeble, conquers kidney and bladder com
plaints,and hastens the convalescence of those
recovering from enfeebling disease-. More
ever, it is the grand specific for fever and ague.
