THE HOG PROP SHORT.
High-
Prices for Porkers Exceedingly Oause and Effect. The Indiana farmers who have hogs to sell at present prices are in luck. As is usually the cuae when prices are high the farmer has not a large crop to put on the market. The hog quotations have threatened to go above auy figure since the war, says the Indianapolis News. Yesterday Jthe market reached $7.20, and stock buyers say there is a possibility that it may go still higher. For ten years or more the price of hogs has seldom been above 5 cents per pound, and much of the time the price was from 3 to 4 cents. The market became so dull that many farmers found it advisable to 6top raising hogs. Instead of feeding the corn crop to the hogs on th? farm, it was carted off to the city.
The farmers around the city say they believe that the removal of the emburgo against the importation of pork into Germany has had something to do with the great demand for export, and just now Blaine is a popular man with the Indiana farmers. He is accorded the credit for having made it possible for American pork to be shipped to Germany.
Indianapolis has been leading the Western cities this Winter in the price of hogs. The quotations from day to day have shown that hogs brought from 5 to 15 cents more in Indianapolis than in Chicago or St. Louis. For instance the best paid at Indianapolis Thursday was S7.20. The top market in Chicago was S7.10 and the best that St. Louis paid was $6.95. The seaboard market was, of course, considerable better than this city could do. The best paid in Buffalo was $7.45.
So far the local packers have not been able to buy enough hogB to keep them running full force, and it is said by buyers that it has been many years since the hog crop was BO short.
The high price thnthogsin the rough are bringing is beginning to be felt in homes of the city. Lard, which for years has been retailed at 10 cents or less per pound, is now selling at 15 cents per pound. As lard is used in some families tha* cannot afford to eat tenderloins, the advance of one-third in price is looked upon as a serious matter.
Bound Over to the Court.
Yesterday afternoon about •i'o'clock the police marched in a body to tho residence of the widow Randolph on Walnut street, and affected the capture of her hopeful son, Sam, the burglar. Luther Monroe stated when in the po lice court yesterday afternoon that tho precocious Sam had ridden down with him the night before from Lafayette. This was as good as the police wanted so they deecended on the Randolph mansion. The place was closed and as knocks failed to bring anyone officer Grimes made an entrance by raising back window, forced a few doors and went through the place. Tin search was continued arid Sfim va found in the attic covered over with old clothes. He was jailed at once. He stated that he went to Lafayette or, Wednesday night after his escape frori' the store. He saw the police looking for him at the station but avoided them by boarding the train after it started. He fooled around Lafayette all day Thursday and visited his sister. Hi came back Saturday night and went directly home where he remained then in hiding until captured by the police
This morning Samuel was brought up before the Mayor to auswer to Uncharge of burglary. Hon. M. D. White appeared for him and waived prelimin ary examination. Mayor Bande) accordingly bound him over to the circuit court in the sum of $500. Not being able to furnish bond he went to jail. It is a question whether he will be sent to the penitentiary or the reform school, the decision resting with the discretion of the judge or jury.
Mrs. S. M. Randolph, his mother, indignantly denies the report published by one of the City papers to the effect that Sammy wa3 at her house from the time of the burglary until he was captured. She also states that Samuel is no tougher than many other young chaps who are not in jail. In this she is about right and about half a dozen of his companions aro standing on the ragged edge even now.
The Goddess of tbe Orap Shooters Punished, Miss Phebe Derickson, a fat colored young miss of great beauty but with a character harmonizing with her color, was wiped up by her mother last night. I'bu'be came home full to the neck with liquid inspiration and was treated to a good threshing with one of the parlor chairs. Her escort was driven from the residence to I he creek bottoms where he is still in hiding. The affair caused quite a stir in the neighborhood.

Not Americanism*. -V
An English correspondent of the Boston Herald has found in a "Dictionary of the Isle of Wight Dialect" a number of words which English writers usually class as American provincialisms. Among them are "cute" and "piert," found also in one of George Eliot's novels "backedup," "call," in the sense of reason or necessity "chipper," "darn," as a mild oath "fall." for autumn "galluses." "heft," "hunk," "jaw," meaning to scold "jiffey," "get out of kilter,'' "rare," in the sense of undertone "thick," for intimate "gumption," "tan," meaning to thrash "spells," of weather, "put to rights," etc. The subject is a most interesting one and deserves more attention from philologists than it has thus far received. The compiler of the dictionary In question says that many of the provincialisms in the Isle of Wight are identical with those current in the adjoining counties of Hampshire, Wilts and Dorset, once forming a part of the Saxon Kingdom of Wessex, and that the basis of the dialect of this region is purely AngloSaxon.
A Witty Savage.
Mr. Froudc tells a story of how a native Maori chief, Tekoi, managed to turn the tables upon hiB missionary teacher. The chief had been frequently warned by him against tbe evil of indulgence in "firewater." A day came, however, when the missionary, in danger of catching cold, felt constrained to fortify himself with a glass of whiskytoddy. At the moment he was about to raise the tempting fluid to his lips, a dt.sicv figure appeared, and, laying his finger on the glass, said: "Stop, little father! if you drink firewater, you will lose your health, you will lose your character. Perhaps you will lose your life. Nay, little father, you will loBe— but that shall not be. Your immortal soul is more precious than mine. The drink will hurt me less than it will hurt you. To save your soul, I will drink it myseli." Which he did forthwith.
The Smallest Island.
The smallest sea island on record is nine feet across, and is reported by Capt John Richards, of the British ship Cambrian Monarch, to have been sightr ed by him in latitude 29 degrees, 2 minutes north, longitude 137 degrees, 59 minutes west. The sea was smooth around it, and it was clearly an island, tapering upward in a pyramidal shape from below the surface of the water.
Dliln't Know It Was There. A photographer in the Tyrol made a negative of ten tourists against a background of pine woods. When ho developed tbe plate a faithful presentment of a large bear in the act of making for the denser timber appeared in the edge of the forest. Neither the man with the camera nor any of those in the group had known that the brute was near.

ECHO RIVER.
Peculiar Acoustic ynalitles
of
Th!, vault-
ed Stream.
One of the famous curiosities of the Mammoth cave is the Echo river, a body of water estimated to bo some threefourths of a mile in length, and from twenty to two hundred feet in breadth. Its depth at ordinary times is from ten to forty feet. Dr. H. C. Ilovey, in a paper read before the American Geographical society, gives a vivid description of the peculiar acoustic qualities of the vault by which the river is arched.
Last summer, in company with a party of four persons, no others being on the river at the time, we tried the effect of rocking the boat as violently as we dared to do, also striking the surface of the water with our paddles, and in other ways makinp as much agitation of tho body of the stream as possible, and then awaiting the result In silence.
I timed the concert thus created, and found its duration to be exactly half an hour. First caine sounds like the tinkling of silver bells. Then larger and heavier bells took up the melody as the waves sought out the cavities in the walls. Then it was as if all chimes of all cathedrals had conspired to raise a tempest of sweet sounds.
For a moment there wasutter silence, soon broken by low mutterings, ghostly whispers, sudden shrieks, as if of men in agony. Then silence again. We were about to speak, when the guide motioned to us to remain quiet when, lol as from some deep recess, hitherto forgotten, came a tone tender and profound after which, like gentle memories, all the mellow and mysterious sounds that had gone before were reawakened, until the hall rang again with the wondrous harm ony.
STRANGE ADOPTIONS.
The Strength of th. Maternal Instinct In Animals. I lately met some friends who had with them a little dog called "Vic" which had adopted the family of a cat in the house, and while in possession would not let the mother come near her kittens, says a writer In tho London Spectator. The kittens were kept in a very tall basket, and "Vic" would take them one by one and then carry them into the garden and watch over them, carrying them back in the same way after a time, at otlicr times lying contentedly with thera in the basket. Of course, "Vic" had to bo forcibly removed when the adopted family required their mother's attention for their sustenance. I also have met a friend who saw a hen hawk, which was in a cage, mothering a young starling. Three young, unfledged starlings were given the hawk to eat. She ate two and then brooded the other and took the utmost care of it. Unhappily the young starling died, and from that moment the hawk would touch no food, but died herself in a few days. The same friend was on a mountain one day when a sheep came up to him and unmistakably begged him to follow her, going just in front and continually looking around to sco if he was following. The sheep led him at last to some rocks, where he found a lamb fast wedged in between two pieces of rock. He was able to liberate the lamb, to the evident joy of the mother. I myself once saw a cat "brooding" and taking care of a very small chicken, which, being hatched first of a brood, had been brought into a cottage and placed in a basket near the fire. It managed to get out of the basket and hopped up near the cat, which immediately adopted it.
SHOES IN JAPAN.
They Aro Made of Straw for Both Men and Homes. In the land of the Mikado, If nowhere else on earth, man and beast wear shoes made of the same material—to-wit, straw. One would naturally not think that straw would make very good shoes to be Wurn even by man, and worn, too. in the most gingerly fashion. Certainly they would not be very durable to the average boy, who can "kick the stuffing" out of school shoes in a few brief weeks.
How then can it be expected that they would do horses any reasonable service at all? Well, they don't they wear out so fast and have to be replaced so often that finjon? going /or ft lgpg drlvs pill

have to carry about a cartload of them along. So often do the horses' shoes have to be changed that the people have come to do so at pretty regular intervals when on a trip, and distance has come to be measured by the length of road a set of shoes will last. In the parlance of the country, one does not travel so many miles, but so many sets of shoes. When you ask a native how far it is to any given place he will reply so many sets of shoes. We don't know that such is the fact, but probably when the horses are done with theis old shoes they eat them. ii 1
BAD HABIT OF EXERCISE.
A London Crttlo Hays One Max Become Slave to It for Life. Some persons get on perfectly well without exercise. I am one of them, says the editor of London Truth, because I never fell into the engrossing habit of exercise when a young man. Naturally a person who passes his youth in violent exercise finds later on that he cannot do without it. The habit is as easily acquired as that of drinking or opium smoking, and, once acquired, a person becomes a slave to it for the rest of his life.

Most people, however, eat far too much, and then often find themselves Incommoded, if they do not work off this excess of food. It is easy to get up an artificial appetite. I remember Mr. Bright once explained this to me. He said the stomach artificially distended, the void which is created owing to this artificial distension produces a perpetual oraving for food, and this is termed being hungry. Gradually reduce the amount of food, and the stomach becomes normal, with the result that half the amount of food is satisfying. The world is divided between those who eat too much and those who do not have enough to eat.
