A MAN WHO WAS SENT TO AN INSANE ASYLUM WHILE UNKNOWN. ‘The ease with which a man’s identity may be lost in a large city 1s exemplified in the case of Chas, Dimmick, freight agent of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad at Bingham- ton, N.Y. October 8 a fine-iooking but somewhat shabbily-dressed man Was found wandering aim- lessly about the streets of the Twelfth precinct of Brooklyn and was taken to the station-nouse by an officer. He was evidently demented, and could say nothing more than “Deming” and *Bingham- ton.” ‘The ina was committed for examination as to his sanity, and later, after being pro- bounced insane, Was committed to the insane asy- lum at Flatbusa. Relief Clerk Short communi- cated with Binghamton Asylum authorities, but they knew Ing of any patient who answered to the description of the man. The officer who took the unknown man to the asylum told Mr. Short that the patient had mentioned the name ot Duumick, and, acting on this vague clew, Mr. Short again wrote to Binghamton, and established the identity of the man as that of Chas. Dimmmick. He leit home on October 1 to visit a broiwer who lives in Jersey City, and another brother, 7. M.

Except im great houses, where the meat and game were carved by the butler, everything was carved om the table. The host sat behind the haunch of mutton and helped with zeal; the guests wok the ducks, the turkey, the hare, and the fowls, and did their parts, conscious of critical eyes. A dinner was a terrible ordeal for a young man who, perbaps found himself called to dissect a pair ot ducks. “He took up the knife with burn- Impostor, one who Luew not tue way's of polite so- impostor, one who knew not the ways of polite so- , WOuld be discovered; he began to feel for Joints, while the cold eyes of the hostess gazed ‘upon him—iadies in those daysknew and couid carve for themselves.

After dinner the cloth Was removed, showing the table deep in color, lus- trous, well-waxed, and the gentlemen began’ real business with the bottle after the ladies had gone. How Race Horses are Watched. Here is what Owner Bryant says of the prepara- tons for a great race: “AS I said, no one knew my business, and not a single man, except those iu the stable, saw Knott work before the race, except on ue oF two occasions.

Grifi:h Davies, in 1827, ‘said: ‘All observations vend wo confirm that fe- male life 1s better than male, and even married better than single.’ In 1829 Jno, FinlAison, gov- ernment actuary of England, laid before parlia- ment his report on life annuittes, and in this he reported that inevery census there were found alive more females than males, His successor of the same name, in 1860, reported tne superiority of female life in all ages over twelve, It is evi- dent that, upon general principles, if the mortal- ity of feniales were greater than of males, this Gisproportion Would soouer or later disappear, and, if continued, would in time show the reverse result. In 1860 the government actuary of Eng- Jand reported these words: ‘It 1s almost certain that apy material improvement in the human pbysical constitution will be first observed in the diminution of the infantile and femaie mortality. ‘This 1s borne out in a striking degree in tne latest English reports.’” ————e+_____ ‘The Location of Furnaces, C.F.

The civilized woman, when sho wants to be ‘Wooed, attempts to make herself a8 attractive as possible, So does the Chilcat woman; but she has a different idea of what 1s attractiveness, One evening, after all the fishing-canoes came in, I Saw a young squaw, robed from head to foot ina deep-red bianket, sitting stolidly on the end or a great spruce log a few rods away from the can- ery and at sliort distance from where the fish- ing canoes were moored, and where the fires of the Chilcat fishermen Nad been lighted.’ When, out of curiosity at her singuiar costume and posi- a.
