THE STAR-PRESS.

Satutday, Feb. 18, 1893

Mr. H. M. Randel, J. L. Randel and wife and son are going to Washington City to see Cleveland inaugurated. Ernest McHaffle has returned from Kentucky, and has brought with him ■ a fine and most promising filly which he bought in that State. She is by Nutwood; first dam by George Wilkes, second by Electioneer, third byMambrino Patchen 58. It will be seen she is one of the greatest bred fillies to be found. The latest slick scheme to beat the unsuspecting is as follows: A man and woman come to town, secure a marriage license and then hunt up a

Dumas made a guillotined head speak and weep. One of the strangest things in “Monte Cristo” is the way in which the old revolutionist Nortier manages to live on, paralyzed in every part of his body except his eyelids, which he winks

freely.

Yet the old fellow reasons acutely, and finds no difficulty whatever in swallowing food or drink. Dumas seemed absolutely unaware that such a paralytic condition as he describes in Nortier’s case involved of necessity brain damage of the most se-

rious kind.

ness, such a sadness of resignation and remembrance. Nowhere else is the present so alien, so discontinuous, so like a crowd in a cemetery without garlands for the graves. It has no flowers in its hands, but as a compensation, perhaps—and the thing is doubtless more to the point—it, has money and little red books. The everlasting shuffie, in the piazza, of these irresponsible visitors is contemporary Venetian life. Everything else is only a reverberation of that. The vast mausoleum has a turnstile at the door, and a functionary in a shabby uniform lets you in, as per tariff, to see how dead it is. From this eonstatation, this cold curiosity, proceed all the industry', the prosperity, the vitality of the place. The shopkeepers and gondoliers, the beggars and the models, depend upon it for a living; they are the custodians and the ushers of the great museum— they are even themselves to a certain extent the objects on exhibition. It is in the wide vestibule of the square that the polyglot pilgrims gather most densely; Piazza San Marco is like the lobby of the opera in the intervals of the performance. The present fortune of Venice, the lamentable difference, is most easily measured there, and that is why, in the effort to resist our pessimism. we must turn away both from the purchasers and from the venders of

As the subject of good and cheap |J roads is being agitated by our people 1 wish to say a few words as to our own township. In Warren township we have one small piece of rock road. Proof that it is appreciated in bad weather is the fact that people drive 2 and it miles to get on to it, ami 8 miles over it to Greencastle, when it is only 5 or G miles from their homes to Greencastle by the direct road. Possibly the Legislature will do something with the road law; possibly roads will be placed in charge of township trustees and road committees, and it will rest with these officials and the residents of tlie townships to make roads good or bad; to get 100 cents on each $1 we spend on roads or get virtually nothing. 1 hear that Trustee Warner is considering favorably the idea of buying a stone crusher for use in this township, and 1 hope the outI come will prove that we have one j township trustee in tire county who j has sufficient “git up” in him to do ttiis thing and place Warren in the lead of our townships. Every 1<>0 I acres of land in this township has P*sufficient stone on it to macadamize every road in the township, and a i' cost but little if any more than sand, or gravel as it is called. There has been enougli gravel or sand and labor put on the Secrest hill, about 100 yards long, to have made a rock road from Dewese Branch to Putnamville, or from tile hill to the township line ^ —where is the gravel now? Gone fflj down the branch. There is rumor 4^,that there is some politics in this pro- / posed new departure. I hope there Is if it will better our roads. When 1

Bulwer Lytton went in for medical marvels in “Zanoni,” but as he was a student of mystic lore, and actually learned magic from a professed thaumaturgist, the Abbe Constant, his wonders were attributable not so much to his ignorance of medical science, as to his belief in the elixir of life and the transmutation of metals. Wilkie Collins made a specialty of his medical knowledge, but his medical men and their wonderful doings could never have existed outside his own im-

agination.

The poets are, if possible, even worse offenders in the matter of their death scenes than the novelists. A man pulls a two-drachm vial of some poison from his breast, swallows the contents, proceeds to make a two-hundred-line speech without a pang or a gasp, staggers gracefully backwards to a conveniently placed seat, drops upon it, claps the region of the heart with both hands, and dies after u little convulsive movement of the legs Heart disease, too, carried off heroines in a tashion quite unknown to doctors, and, although it is of the variety known as “broken heart,” has characteristics which must not be generally associated with fracture of so important an organ.

Companion.

M. Thouar, in his diary, kept during his explorations in the l ilcomayo delta under a commission from the Argentine \ government, describes an experience which prompted him to eternal vigilance in regard to snakes. He was lying in his hammock; the sergeant of his guard was asleep under a tree close by. Suddenly he noti'#d an immense serpent coiled about the sergeant’s leg and extending its bead toward his bare chest. What should he do? To wake the man meant certain death to him; but how to kill the creature or attract it away without waking him? He recalled a method of capturing the cobra

in India.

He prepared a slipknot. By stealthy, almost imperceptible movements he attracted the serpent’s attention. It turned its head. Then he leaned from his hammock and with a long piece of grass tickled it gently on the throat. It raised its head. He cast the noose over it and drew it tight around the serpent’s neck. It was not a moment too soon. The sergeant awoke. He fainted with fright, hut the danger was past. The slipknot had saved him and a stroke of the saber cut off the serpent's head.

Many of tl»© Most Noted Wore Discovered

by Accident.

It is a remarkable fact that many of the most famous horses of the trotting turf were not appreciated until after they had arrived at maturity. With a great many the trotting quality was discovered by accident. It is on record, says the Newark Sunday Call, that Flora Temple was once sold for thirteen dollars, and the great mare Princess, dam of Happy Medium, brought her breeder about forty dollars. Taeupy pulled a stage and Mack likewise. Abdallah I. would have been made to haul a fish cart had not his lofty spirit rebelled at the indignity. Hilly Button was used as a runner to force the pace of Peralto. Goldsmith Maid was once sold for one hundred dollars, and the dam of Ethan Allen was sold at the age of ton for thirty-five dollars. Dutchman worked in a brickyard; so did Old Columbus, and Andrew Jackson was foaled in one. Charlie B. was used to haul stone up from a quarry by derrick and pulley. Godolphin Arabian drew a watering cart in the streets of Paris; Justin Morgan was long a wheel horse

in Vermont.

The grandam of Monbars did farm drudgery. The dam of Billy Button hauled garden truck to market and pulled a milk wagon alternately. Gifford Morgan drew slabs from a sawmill and at one time was sold for one hundred doUars. The dam of Flying Morgan used to peddle wood ware. The sire of Rarus was worked to a butcher's cart, and it is said that the dam of Black Hawk also drew a butcher's cart. The first authentic account of Old Pilot places him in the hands of a Yankee peddler in New Orleans. The dam of Lady Griswold was used by a patent medicine vender. The dam of Green Mountain Morgan ground apples in a cider mill. The dam of Taggcrfs Abdallah drew the wagon of a tin peddler. It is very easy to account for the Morgans being put to a somewhat menial service. They were strong, hardy and

Jiff Was a Newspaper Correspondent as

■\VeIl us Surveyor.

The papers of late have been well filled with all sorts of talk, some true and some false, alxiut Jay Gould and family. Old John Gould, of Roxbury, Jay's father, is spoken of as very poor, which, according to the Detroit Free Press, is not true, lie was a sturdy, well-read, intelligent farmer, in good circumstances. At the time of the anti-rent war in the county he stood up boldly for the laws until better ones could be made. When ordered by the Big Thunder not to have the dinner horn blown to call the men to meals he went right on as usual. One day the horn was blown and in less than an hour a body of disguised men appeared to call him to account, Big Thunder in command. He told him his family would do as they pleased, and he was threatened. Jay stood by and said; “I know who you are, Big Thunder; you are Dan Squires, and you dare not kill my father.” Here is the keynote to the whole career of Jay Gould—an independent audacity that never failed him. When mapping the county and mrtking up his history of Delaware county he was a correspondent for the Franklin Visitor, and its prospectus was published in the history in full. His letters to the Visitor were always spicy and interesting and were kept up until he built the tannery in Wayne county He then advised me to ask his sister Betty to write for the paper, and found her one of the best correspondents 1 ever had. She became Mrs. Dr. Palen, of a well-known medical firm of Philadelphia, and has her home in Cam' den, N. J., opposite that city.

THE CURSE OF AUSTRALIA.

Kangaroos Klllnl by the Thonaanil, lint

Still Plentiful In Some Place*.

The kangaroo plague, says llardwicke’s Science Gossip, has always been a great nuisance to the Australian squatters, for on an average these animals consume as much grass as a sheep. It is stated that on a sheep run of 00,000 to 80.000 acres 10,000 kangaroos were killed annually for six consecutive years, and yet their numbers remained very formidable in the locality. In the colony of South Australia hundreds of thousands of kangaroos are slaughtered annually for their skins and the bonus offered by the authorities. The numbers of these marsupials in New South Wales in 1889 was estimated to be over 4,000,000, and yet about 500,000 kangaroos and 650,000 wallabies were destroyed in the colony in that year. A bonus of sixteen cents for each kangaroo killed is offered in Australia; hence the colonists are gradually exterminating these native animals. Over half a million skins are annually shipped to England and a large number to North America, to be converted into leather. The maeropid® includes several kinds of kangaroos and wallabies. The progress of settlement in Australia has

So serious has been the injury thus wrought that the colonial governments aud runholders pay a small sum per head for the dest-uction of the kangaroos.

HE HAD TIGHT SHOES.

Natural Selection Protects Them from the Prevail! Tendency. If the unsatisfactory statistics that have been able to collect can be relied on, the proportion of baldness in boys and girls under twenty is about eighty to seven, says Miss E. F. Andrews in the Popular Science Monthly. As the majority of girls at the age under consideration wear their hair loose, or in simple “Marguerite” braids, so that there is little likelihood of deception, while, unwholesome headgear or other individual practices can hardly, as yet, have had time to produce any material ofi t upon either rex, we may regard the difference indicated by the figures as practically due to the working of heredity

alone.

Now, there is no apparent reason why girls should not inherit a tendency to baldness as well as boys, unless that tendency is checked by some other factor. Such a factor is sexual selection; for I presume it is hardly necessary to argue here that a bald-headed woman would not. stand much chance of “survival” in the struggle for matrimonial honors. As men have always practically done the “selecting,” and will probably continue to do so more and

Proper Tim©.

Gen. Jim Lewis, as he is familiarly called, is said by his friends to believe in the efficacy of eccentric habits with the fair sex, and many acts of a smileprovoking character are told of him. His most rc-ent act in thi line, according to the St. Louis Republic, occurred a short time since at a dinner party given by a lady friend. During the course of the dinner the general, so the story goes, was noticed to lean over and reach down toward the floor, first on one side, then on the other. The movement was noted, but was thought to be only one of his peculiarities. At the close of the dinner, when the ladies rose to retire and allow the gentlemen to solace themselves with an indulgence of good cigars, the general did not rise. This action produced an awkward pause, and made the general the observed of all observers, noting which, together with the look of inquiry and expectancy with which he was regarded, he made prompt explanation to the effect that his remaining seated was due to his shoes not being wholly

on his feet.

He did not, however, have to explain that their not being so was due to his peculiar side movements at the table,
