A teacher in Illinois asked her pupils to bring in “three items of information” about the river which flowed by their town; and from one small boy she received this model of concise conipoaition: “THE SANGAMON RIVER. “I have lived near it “I have seated over it. “I have fallen into it.” Another teacher set her pupils L work on the subject: “What should little boys not do in school?” and from jxno of them received the following “Little boys when at school should not make faces at the teacher, and should not study too hard cause it makes them near sighted, and should not sit too long in one position cause It makes their backs crooked^ and •hould not do long examples in arithmetic cause it uses up their pencils too fast” T ne child's mind can grasp with ease the delicate suggestions of flowers.— Chapin.

[OUTRAGES IN CHINA. । MISSIONARIES KILLED AND THE i STATIONS BURNED. The Inmates, Most of Whom Were Ladies, Were Killed After Having Been Subjected to Fearful Atrocities —Situation is Critical. Officials Said to Be Implicated. Every day brings new accounts of violence done to American missionaries in China, and there is no longer a doubt that all foreigners in certain districts of the Chinese Empire are in »jurly danger of losing their lives. Already enough violence has been done to Americans to warrant the speedy dispatch of gun-boats to Chinese waters. The massacre at Ku Cheng, with the subsequent immunity of tin* perpetrators from punishment, has had the natural effect of stirring up anti-foreign fanatics in other localities to similar exploits. A mob has looted the American mission at Inghok, fifty miles from Foo Chow. The mission buildings at Fat Shan, near Canton, have been demolished. From other points all over the disaffected province of Fukein come reports of hostile dem- | onstrations and increasing danger for nil who are guilty of the crime of being “foreign devils.” Miss Mabel C.

English and American warships cannot too quickly be applied to the authorities of the localities who refuse to protect the lives of foreign residents.

SAYS SHE WEDDED GOULD. Startling Claim of Mrs. John Angell, Now Living at Rouse’s Point. A New York paper prints a long article setting forth the alleged claim of Mrs. John Angel], of Rouso’s Point, N. Y., on the vast fortune left by the late Jay Gould. Mrs. Angell claims to have been married to Gould when he was only 17 years old, and declares that evidence to prove her allegation is now in the hands of reputable lawyers in this city.

Destruction of the Central Stamping Plant at Newark, N. J. The fiercest tire the department of Newark, N. J., has had to contend with In many years, with the possible exception of the big grain fire at the Ballentine brewery a couple of months ago, broke out in tho plant of the Central Stamping Company Sunday afternoon. The front of the stamping company's plant was on New Jersey street and Railroad avenue, and covered ten city lots on that street. On the south side of the main building on the avepue were five three-story brick buildingsand on the north was a new twostory brick structure. All these were destroyed. The loss to the Central Stamping Company was estimated by State Senator Ketcham, treasurer of the company, as upward of $500,000: insurance, $250,000. The other losses will reach $30,000.

His Hand Betrayed Him. . Sir Ashley Cooper, tho eminent Englisb surgeon who flourished fifty years I^g o > possessed the detective instinct. Jie was once called upon to perform an inmost hopeless operation upon a Mr. jßlight, who had just been shot by au unknown assassin. The prominence of «lie man and the mystery surrounding iJie shooting rendered the case celebrated. ! Mr. Blight was unconscious at the time of the operation, and no information could be obtained from him. The moment Sir Ashley examined tho wound he turned to his assistant and said: ’ “A pistol has been fired at him with Whe left hand.” Then be explained his reasons for ahis conclusion. While he was still en- ■ Aged In this explanation, Mr. Blight's ■b rtner, a Mr. Patch, a man esteemed Fuputable, entered the house and was shown into the room. Something ■mout his manner and countenance at- ■ Acted the attention of Sir Astley, fed he whispered to his colleague: F “If tlrat gentleman were left-handed, Ephould suspect him of the crime.” I The next instant he turued to Patch said: K“W111 you kindly hand me tl at lint ’.-" KPatch did so. using his left hand. ■Mr. Blight died.

A Fine Example. The West Point military college has set a splendid example for other colleges In sentencing Cadet Wallace B. Scales to two years of punishment In hazing Cadet Roberts, a “plebe,” until the latter fainted. Unfortunately the law does now allow college faculties to Impose a sentence of punishment, technically speaking, upon refractory students, except in such Institutions as those at West Point and Annapolis; but it lies within the power of colleges of all kinds to expel the students for hazing. If every college tn the land would take a flrm stand in this mattei and adhere rigidly to the rule it would not be long before hazing would be ar Institution of the past In this country •—Troy Pre/s.
