PASSING STRANGE.

The Family of a Young Girl Forbid Her Burial Until Her Appearanca Is Explained.

Lost Wednesday night, Minti, tho 11 year oM daughter of Harmon Wilson and wife at 408 Lafayette avenue, to all appearances, died. Tho arrangements wore made for the funeral to take place yestorday mormng at lOo'ciook and Mr. Voris, the undertaker iu consideration of all matters injected no embalmiug fluid into tho body, merely using a preparation to preserve tho face as lifo like as possible. Thursday evening most remarkable clmngo took pluoe in tho appearance of the corpse. A healthful glow suffused the l'aoo, tho lips became a cherry red, tho tlesh was slightly warm and the muscles of tho body, which had beeu at no time rigid, bocamo us supple us in lifo. She appeared as one lying iu snootaml dreamless sleep, and so natural was her appearauoo thut all those pieseut uuited in declaring her to bo alive and merely in a trance. The funeral was postponed until evening and several physicians were called in to make au examination. Diatom llutchingH and Eusminger, who called lirst, pronounced that no life was present and stated thut she had reallv (bed Wcduosduy uight. The other doctors who followed expressed themselves likewise but no one explained tho appearance of tho corpse. No chunge taking place iu tho body, tho funeral was again postponed until this morning at 10 o'clock. Several neighbors kept vigil at the house during last night and no change was noticed in tho apparently sleeping child. Hor color had the ruddy tinge of life aud health, the llesh was warm and flexible and th» rigidity of death was wholly absent when the luunral hour again arrived to-diy. Decomposition had nor sel iu even to tho slightest degree ov. though the hotly had not been ombxlmod. N'otwithstanding the verdict of the physicians' tlie family decided that the funeral should not vko plaeo this morning and that it Would be postponed until tiiey were thoroughly sutislied that the sirl was dead.

At best the oase is a strong one. The death was the result of an abscess wtuoh breaking through stooped the action of the he.Tt. In view oi this fact her family hope that the stoppage is merely teuiimrarv, aud that in time tho cunning machinery of life will again perform its fuuetiou. Their anxiety is terrible to behold, aud the suspense into which thoy have been thrown is lear'ul. A large number of persons liavo visited the house and viewed the remains. All unite iu dec'a-ing tho body's appear, ance most wonderfully lifo like. The sensational reparts that tho girl opened hor eyes during tho uight, aud that the heart can ut times bo telt to '.'.utter are untrue und nothing boyoud tho life like couditiou of the body warrants the belief that she is in a trance.

At four o'clock the appearance oi tne corpse wis unchanged und tho time for the funeral was uot set. If there is a chunge before to-morrow afternoon tlie time of tho funeral will be announced from tho several pulpits.

"Faust Up to Daw" made its initial appearance ut the Grand las-l night. It is is a travesty of the broadest kind, sparkling with humor and running over with bright aud catchy melodies.

Mr. J. G. Hell, as Mephisto, was also a prominent feature. The dancing and ohoruscs were also good, in fact, the tihow will undoubtedly oatcli on to the full limit.—Indianapolis Journal.

He appeared today on the streets bearing all the evidences of having been one of the participants in the Waynetown prize fight.

HIS YOUNO LADY PUPIU

H«rolo Tr«*tment Hlg dirt K* fn««a

Uarn fler I«Mon,

A Maine boy, who is now a professor in one of our New England colleges, used to teach town schools while fitting himself for his university course, •ays the I.ewiston Journal. Seated opposite to him on a railway train a while ago he related to me some ot his experience in teaching the youthful idea. One strapping great girl, a woman grown, caused him considerable trouble because of her indifference to the beauties of education in general and ••gogerfy-' in particular, for which neglect he caused her to put in considerable time after school in making iiu.

It reached the teacher's ear one day that this maid hail declared to an admiring group that she wouldn't have her lesson on mat afternoon, and that if tho teacher kept her after school he would have the privilege of sitting up one night with her at uny rate before she would niiiUo the lesson up. Tliis idea caused much excitement among tho pupils, who are usually ready to enjoy a teacher's discomfiture.

According to the programme the young lady's lesson that afternoon was a complete failure, and she was told to make it up after school. When the session ended the other pupils lingered ubout with an air of .-expectancy to see the outcome of matters.

The teacher politely showed them out of tlie room, however, and then went in and shut the do r. There sat tho damsel with her arms defiantly folded and tho book closed on the desk in front of her. The pedagogue cordially invited her to open tho book and begin operations, but this had no etlect whatever. "All right," said he. taking out his watch. "I'll irivo you just thirty minutes to get that lesson, and if it is not ready at the end of that time I'll take you across my knee and give you one of the most comprehensive, unabridged and able-bodied spun,tings that have ever occurred since Julius Cu'sar was an infant."

Then ho took a chair with his buck lothe enemy. Surprise, mortificaiiou, tears and sobs ensued, but ut the end oi tho huif .lour tho lesson hail boon learned—two lessons, probably.

BRAVE DEED OF A GIRL.

How t» Ki-Yoaj-Olil Is-* I'un* titer to Dmith. A most remarkable story of frontiet bravery, the heroine being Miss Paulino Collier, a young lady 10 years ol age, comes from Childress, a new town in the l'anhaudle county, this State, says a letter from San Antonio, Tex. Miss Collier is a pupil in the Childress district school, ami although she lives ten miles from the town siie makes the trip back and forth each day ou a spirited Texan pony. One morning last week she left home at an early hour and was riding leisurely along wlion she espied an enormous panther immediately in front of her, crouched in tho short prairie grass, ready for a fatal spring. With admirable presence of mind Miss Collier seized tho lariat bunging at her saudlo-bow, and with great dexterity the animal's neck was encircled with tho deadly coil. At a word from its mistress the pony which .Miss ('oilier was riding sprang away at a gallop, drugging the ravage but helpless monster to its death. I'pon becoming salislied that the animal's lile was extinct the young lany undid the rope from the pommel of her saddle, leaving the panther stretched upon the prairie behind her. Proceeding on hor way to school sho met John Kerry in company with several cowboys and related the story. They went to the spot where tho dead panther lay and proceeded to denude it of its hide, which will be made into a rube ami presented to tho young lath. The panther weighed 2Id A-

The meeting was duly '-ailed to order, und tho young politician offered a series of resolution.-,, which began by saying that they wore presented at a lurge and respectable gathering of voters. ••Hold on." said the second man ••we can't pass that.

One of the most trouotesone tpiestions to contend with iu iravollinsr in China is thut of money. As is well known, the Chinese have no othor currency than the cooper i-ath, about fifteen hundred of which are worth ai Peking a Chinese ounce of pure silver called by foreigners a uel of s.vceo.' Silver is naturally used in commercial transactions, but as bullion only, and by weight, so every ono has to have a sot of small scalos. The Inconvenience that this weighing entails would bo comparatively small wore ali the scales throughout the empire uniform, but such is not tho case. Thoy differ considerably from ono town to another antl even in tho same locality. Thus at Peking there is a government standard, a maritime customs mun'tard, and a commercial standard.
