THE

The Footpath, .i,

In Engiana one may walk througn a county without troubling the high road. The winding by road, with its bowery sides, is everywhere at our service, and everywhere, too, we find the footpath, crossing private grounds, perhaps, as sanctioned by some ancient right of way edging the little river ami passing it by the bridge, which is always to be found where needed bordering the farmer's fields, leading from one hospitable gate or turnstile to another, and finding its way to every attractive point of view.

England has been cultivated for so many centuries that scarce an acre appears which the hand of man has not put to some sort of service, while even in the most thickly settled parts of our older states there are many tracts which are still almost in their primitive condition. Horses, too, are cheap with us and dear in England, so the English rustic is obliged to walk where his American cousin may ride if he will.

But to explain why we have not so many footpaths as the English is not to confess ourselves satisfied with the want of them. Nor is there any reason why we should not have them in far greater numbers. It costs a good deal to make a road, but very little to make a footpath, for, of course, we need merely a narrow path which a well shod and sensibly dressed person can traverse with a moderate degree of comfort—not a gravel walk lit for slippers and muslin gowns. Often a couple, of planks across a brook, a few loads of earth dumped in a marshy spot, two or three stones set as steps against a wall or fence and a little cutting away of tree branches and

under

growth would open up a delightful tract of country which now is almost impossible or approach.

Nor do we think that the farmer's or landed proprietor's interests would suiTei' by such trilling civilities paid to possible pedestrians. More persons would cross his property, but those who did cross would do it less damage. The path might keep even boys' feet from straying into less desirable directions, while those for whose especial benefit it was formed would,of course,be limited by its bounds. If even the rudest, simplest paths were thus generally formed in our rural neighborhoods their influence would at once be felt in the village itself, as well as in the summer colony.

Ask any farmer's daughter why she does not walk more and she will answer, like the city woman, '"Where shall I walk? The road is unattractive, the meadows and woods are always more or difficult to cross and often impassable."' More paths and simple bridges and stiles are what we need, alike in the interests of healthful physical development and of healthful growth in the sentiment for nature.—Garden and Forest.

llonbininiere

The bonbonniere box is part of the summer resort girl's regular equipment. A Philadelphia girl, whose name is often seen in the social columns during the winter season, was recently victimized by a heartless brother in this fashion: It was at a mountain resort. The party that sat in one of the dark corners of the hotel porch included the Philadelphia girl, a member of the Germantown Cricket club, a clerk in a Philadelphia national bank, the middle aged pastor of a Philadelphia Baptist church, and the wicked brother. The Philadelphia girl passed her bonbonniere box with the usual invitation to the cruel brother, who sat on her right. The brother deftly transferred to the box a handful of small and carefully selected pebbles taken that morning from a brook with malice prepense, at the same tiiue emptying the toothsome little confections into his other hand, under the cover of the darkness. He then pretended to "help himself" and passed the box to the cricket athlete, who promptly bit one of the pebbles, but kept a straight face and passed the box along. The bank clerk put three stones in his mouth and discovered the hoax, but. Spartan like, concealed the pebbles and passed the box to the clergyman. The minister had artificial teeth and the dose was too much for him. He gagged and removed the stones, and then everybody but the Philadelphia girl tittered. The bank clerk, the cricket bowler and the clergyman are still wondering whether the Philadelphia girl is much given to that sort of joking.—Philadelphia Press.

"It" Cau't Love Anything.

A little girl was reciting her lesson in conjugation: "Verb, to love, indicative mood, present tense," called the teacher. "I love, thou lovest, he or she loves," said the little girl. "He, she or it loves," prompted the preceptor. "It can't love anything," pleaded the little girl.

And the teacher, suddenly struck with a new idea, only replied: "Go on." And tiiis idea, new to the teacher, but not to some others, was that grammar as taught by book is a humbug. Only very lately, to quote one instance from a myriad, did the grammars recognize that "you" is a singular pronoun, though it lias been so used for three centuries, and "you are" and all similar phrases were parsed by their rules as second person plural.—Boston Transcript.

Following tlie Fashion.

A famous French woman's witticism about the way her own country women differ from other women in their dress is perhaps deserving of attention on the part of some American women. "There are two ways," she says, "of following the fashion. "A French woman follows it as a dog follows its master. But all other women follow it as a blind man follows his dog." —Youth's Companion.

At a Paris Hotel.

French Dame (in Paris)—Oui, oui, dat Eiffel tower ees cause off thunderstorm, it ees so high. Ve haf many of zem lately. Hear! Dero is anozzer. Heatzee terrifeek noise.

Friend (listening)—A meestake. Zat is zee Atnericain in zee next room looking over hecs board bill.—New York Weekly.

.Pauperism iu Russia

Beggars will always abound in rode communities where to refuse alms is made such a grave social reproach that to beg comes to be fully as comfortable as to work, and nearly as respectable. When a Russian peasant falls into temporary difficulties he puts a wallet over his shoulder, goes out among the neighboring villages and gets it speedily filled with what is Known as "morsels." He enters every house, but makes no formal request oi.dy the mistress of the house feels the meaning of the wallet and drops a morsel into it silently behind his back and she will do so though the morsel be her last and her own husband be obliged to assume the beggar's wallet himself on the morrow.

This touching and respectful tenderness of the poor for the poor is a natural encouragement to the professional beggar, and there are whole villages in Russia where the people, every man of them, in addition to their occupation as owners and cultivators of land, have for generations practiced beggary as their regular auxiliary trade.

On a sin&Ic estate in Moscow province there arc fifty-two of these beggar villages. containing among thenl IIS many as 4,i)43 able bodied men, possessing their "soul" (share) of land apiece, and these men, because their forefathers had their houses burned by the French in 1812, and went round collecting ttie means of rebuilding them, still setoff every summer after seed time and beg their way in tens and twenties through the richer districts of the south tilnn harvest, though it appears that the business is now very much less lucrative than it used to be, in consequence of the growing impoverishment of their patrons.

But much graver forms of pauperism have recently begun to invade Russia than these curious beggar artels. In proportion to population more persons receive public relief at present in St. Petersburg than in any other European capital Professor Janson, a Russian statistician of considerable authority, has calculated that above a fourth of the whole population of the city—229,000 out of 870,000—got relief in 1884.—National Review.

Strong Men.

Aurelian was another ruler of prodigious strength and extraordinary prowess. In his campaign against the Sarmatians he is said to have slain forty-eight of the enemy in one day single handed. "Wanley's Wonders" says, speaking of Aurelian: "When he was colonel of the Sixth legion, called "Gallica/ at Mcntz, lie made strange havoc of the Franci, who overran ail the country of Gaul, for he slew with his own hands 700 of them and sold 300 at Portsale whom he himself had taken prisoners!"

In the first century, A. D., among Pompey's soldiers was a Samnite named Tritanus. Tritanus was a sword fencer of wonderful ability, so expert in the use of his weapon that he did not know what it was to be vanquished. The muscles and sinews on his arms and breast were piled up four or five inches in thickness, and, what was most remarkable, they ran both longitudinally and spirally.

A son of Tritanus was even more widely renowned for his great bodily strength than his father. A giant champion of Mithridates, whom Pompey's army had deposed as king of Pontus, sent a challenge to Pompey that he could vanquish any two men in his army. Pompey sent Tritanus, Jr., to answer the challenge. Tritanus would not strike the braggart with his clenched fist, but felled him with a blow of his open hand. Then catching the fallen gifnt with a single finger under the belt, he carried him a distance of five miles a prisoner to the camp of Pompey.—John W. Wright in St. Louis Republic.

Sound at Hong Distance.

The distance at which the ear can distinguish sound depends both upon the intensity of the sound, the medium through which it is transmitted and other causes, including the state of the atmosphere. In the Polar regions Sir John Franklin said he conversed with ease at a distance of more than a mile. Sound has greater force in water. Colladon, by experiments made in the Lake of Geneva, estimated that a bell submerged in the sea might be heard at a distance of more than GO miles. Franklin asserts that he heard the striking together of two stones in the water half a mile away. The report of cannon travels very far, because it communicates a vibx-ation to the soil. The cannonade of Florence was heard beyond Leghorn, about 56 miles off, and that of Genoa, 100 miles off. In 1762 the cannon of Mayence was heard at Tinbeck, a village 148 miles off. When the English landed in Egypt on one of their expeditions the firing was distinctly heard 130 miles off. In 1809 the booming of the cannon in Heligoland reached Hanover, a distance of 157 miles. But the greatest distance at which artificially produced sounds are known to have been heard was on Dec. 4, 1832, when the cannon at Antwerp were heard in the Erzgebirge mountains, 370 miles distant. The noise produced by an intense eruption of Mount Cotopaxi, in South America, in 1744, was heard at a distance of 600 miles.—Brooklyn Eagle.

Divine 3Iozart.

Who, like Mozart, has traversed the immense scale of human passions? Who has touched their far distant limits with such unswerving accuracy, equally proof against the ineptitudes of false grace and the brutalities of lying violence? Who else could thrill with anguish and horror the purest and most eternal forms? Oh, divine Mozaifc, didst thou lie indeed on the bosom of infinite beauty, even as once the beloved disciple lay on the Saviour's breast, and didst thou draw up thence the incomparable grace which denotes the true elect? Bounteous nature had given thee every gift—grace and strength, fullness' and sobriety, bright spontaneity and burning tenderness, all in that perfect balance which makes up the irresistible powers of thy charm, and which makes of thee the musician of musicians, greater than the greatest, the only one of all— Mozart.—Gounod.

Horse Notes.

Records were smashed right and left at the races at Terre Haute last week. *1 Andy Yetter is now the owner of one of the best (a pacer) stallions in the west.

John Bourne owns a couple of thorough breds. Judge W. H. Martin is a lover of a good horse. He is the owner of a fine colt by Anteros, that took the premium at our fair for the best sucking colt. He has now booked his mare to llamdallali.

Greenfield is now iu the swiu so far as Stanford bred is concerned. The following named are making the fall season here: Hamdallah, by Hambrino. Hamdallah has a mark of 2:26j Kenelm, by Happy Medium. Kenelm will in all probability enter the o0 list yet this fall then comes the bay stallion Sinus, by Hambletoniau Tranby.

Steps should be taken at once to rebuild the stables at the fair ground. Eiv.via been turned out in pastur at iNotili Vernon.

The following is a summary of the race when Hamdallah made his mark of 2:20 ., at Lexington, Ky., October 1st, 1880:

A Hu.wls, Hamdallah liv iIaiuhrino....l 1 1 A Millers Nellie Mokiw." II McCans Lady Wilkes -J

McGlbbons Inmylcr 1 Time 2:21% 2:2oj/o. Dr. S. II. Mil liken has had three mares bred to IJamdallah.

Dich Wilson is working Kenelm at the fair ground. "Jim Blaine" is making the season at Smith S: Jeffries stable.

Come-to-TaW, the thoroughbred, owned by Sam Bryant was solid at auction at Jerome Park, X. Y., on Monday last for *10,000.

Axt-ell, the greatest Stallion iu the world, is a tliree-year-cld and trotted a mile at Terre Haute on Friday of last week in 2:12, and was then sold for $105,000. his purchasers were offered 000 for him but refused it.

It is said that parties living in Rushvillc, are going io build a mile track near that place and give annual meetings.

Tommie McLaughlin, said to be the best jockey in the United States, was thrown over his horses head, falling fiat of his back on the race course in New York a few days ago, but his pluck was of a No. "I class, for he remounted and brought his horse out a winner.

Happy Medium is now pushing George Wilkes closely as a sire of 2:30 performers He has a number of colts and fillies coming on rapidly.

Wallace monthly says that the season for "tin cup records is now upon us." One of Happy Medium's daughters put two perforn ers in the 2:30 list at Buffalo, September, 13tli. Happy Medium has now nine daughters the dams of ten performers. Tlus is said to be a better records as a brood mare sire than any other horce ever had at the same age with the exception of Almont and Mambrino Patchen.

The performance of Kiklee, 2:29)4, ^ud Folly, 2:27).j, at Lexington on Sept. 28 gives Happy Medium just fifty performers in the 2:30 list, and makes nine newcomers for the year 1889, with others still to hear from. It is safe to say that no other horse of Happy Medium's age ever had one-half the number in the list.
