THE OBJECTS AND WORK OF THE SOCIETY are shown in the following, issued by President Pratt: “The work of this organization should command the active sympathies of all citizens of this District. One hundred and ninety cases of cruelty to children and 1,877 cases of cruelty to animale have been investigated and acted upon during the past year. Abandoned in- fants are cared for by this society, and children are taken from immoral surroundings or from guardians who are habitual inebri- ates, and good homes found for them. Two agents are kept traversing the District to warn, arrest, and have punished those who in- flict cruelty upon the helpless. The society puts up drinking fountains, gives medals in recognition of conspicuous humanity, and en- deavors, by lectures, literature, prizes, &c., to cultivate a humane sentimnent among the chil- dren. The field of labor is large, and an agent is needed for each section of the city, While it is a recognized fact that far less open cruelty is observed on our streets than before the or- ganization of the society, there is still enough | to reflect on us as a ilized people. and to make every humane person glad of an oppor- tunity to contribute toward repressing it.” ANNUAL REPORTS.

The company was not at all ready to begin operations with the insufficient number of ties on hand, but they were compelled by the char- ter to begin work by the 26th inst. The con- tractor who was to furnizh 2,000 ties, to be de- livered two weeks ago last Monday, failed to do so, He sent but 150. More are expected within a few days, and as soon as they arrive a larger force of men will be employed and the work rapidly pushed to completion. ‘This is the only hitch the company has yet ex- perienced.

A SavaGEe AssauLt by Necro HiguwayMEen.— About 8 o'clock last night, while William Tay- lor and John French, young white men resit- ing at 2722 K street, were walking up 29th street near the Chesapeake and Ohio canal, they were attacked by two negro men who de- manded their money and valuables. The high- wayman, thinking $o intimidate them, began to fire upon them, but without result, where- upon a heavy stick and a razor weré brought into play. Taylor was knocked senseless by a blow on the head and French received an ugly gash across the hand, When Taylor regained consciousness he found his watch missing and the thieves gone. Dr. MacKall dressed the wounds of the victims. William Humbles and Charles Tibbs, well known to the police, were sabsequently arrested on suspicion and de- taine Fre ry Farrax County.—The residence of Mr. F. G.

A Deap Baby Fouxp.—A dead colored female THE WAY OF THE NERVES. Reflex Action and Something About Its Modus Operandi. From the London Illustrated News. Underlying all the varied phases of nervous action, we find one great and guiding princi- ple, for the first elucidation of which we are indebted to the genius of the late Dr. Marshall Hall. The principle is known as that of reflex action; and one or two simple illustrations will familiarize us with its nature and modus oper- andi, Iam crossing the street and hear the sharp trot of a cab-horse just behind me. Anxious to avoid accidents, Iquicken my steps and reach the opposite pavement in safety. What has been the nature and operation of the nervous mechanism in this case? Waves of sound from the cab’s motion first of all were received by the drum of the ear, were trans- mitted to the inner ear, were modified and assorted, so.as to reach the brain as “sen- sations” of sound, and were finally received and dealt with by that rt of the brain set apart for the control of the hearing sense. Thereupon, consciousness of danger to my personality was awoke, probably because the hearing part of the brain communicated with the intellectual centers, At any rate, the result of sound-waves striking my ear was the awakening of my mind to the risk Iran in crossing the street. Now, this first piece of nervous play only goes so far as to include the conveyance to the brain of a message (or “sensation”) from the outer world. Itis clear that, in order to escape danger. I must possess means of acting, like an intelligent policeman, upon “information received.” Accordingly the sensation of sound sooner or later is “re- lected” from the brain centers to other parts of the body—namely, the muscles, The latter organs are stimulated to greater activity, and I am speedily landed on the opposite pavement out of the way of the cab. Notice, then, that this illustration presents us with a plain, un- varnished story of that “refiex action” which underlies all our nervous operations, and which, therefore, forms the foundation of all the acts of our own lives, of those of my cats, and, indeed REGULATES THE ACTS OF ALL ANIMALS. When you draw back your head to avert a threatened blow, or when your eyelids close as some one in play passes his hand rapidly be- fore your eyes, it is reflex action you again il- lustrate in your movements. The eye receives and its nerve transmits, a “sensation” of sight to the seeing-center of the brain. Thence is “reflected” a nervous command to the muscles of the neck, or of the eyelids alone, as the case may be. When my cats are romping here and there, each movement whereby ‘Professor” escapes his mother’s attack is carried out by a similar reflex action of his nervous system, When you touch the feelers on a snail's’ head, and see them fold up in the marvelous fashion they exhibit, and when finally that mollusc re- tires into the privacy of its own apartment (as represented by its shell) for a time, you are merely witnessing reflex action in lower life. ‘The sensation of touch has been transmitted to the nervous centers of the snail, and those centers in their turn have issued their commands to the muscles with the result of producing the compulsory retire- ment just named. It is with this reflex action, as though one outside official (the sense organ) receiving a message, transmits it to headquart- ers (the brain and nerve center); while the lat- ter dealing with the emergency which has arisen, issues the commands to other officials (muscles, for example), and these latter carry out the movements necessary for the welfare of the state. Even when the ‘mouth waters” at the sight of dainties—a phase of life ex- treme! seen in dogs who view from a point of expectancy the dining srrangements their masters—it is reflex action which is re- sponsible for this peace of physiological fool- ishness. The sensation of sight conveyed to the brain is “reflected” to the salivary glands of the mouth, and these discharge into the mouth their sp. 1 fluid, which, of course, is of service in digestion. It is simply a matter of habit which induces the flow of saliva when there is nothing present to taste or to digest, and, so far, this action, like many others of higher and lower life alike, is of UNCONSCIOUS OR AUTOMATIC RIND. Study this curious principle of nervous ac- tion a little more closely, one recognizes that it depends upon the existence of a tolerably constant series of parts. For example, there must be an ingoing nerve to carry inwards a message or sensation from the outside world. This is the “sensory” nerve of science. Then, there must exist anerve-center, or receiving- office, as we may term it, whereat the message is received and from which it is reflected, or retransmitted, as we have seen, Lastly, there is need of a second or outgoing nerve which shall carry this “reflected” message to mus- cles or other organs as the case may be. ‘This latter nerve, because the effect of its motion is to produce motion of one kind or another, is called the “motor” nerve. These three things are all that are necessary for the carrying out of our life’s acts. Doubtless there is much more that is complex in the details of reflex action, but its essentials areas simple as I have described them. In this system of body-teleg- raphy we see countless messages going in and out from nerve centers, ruling and. controlling all the affairs of our existence. The body, in this view of matters, is a very busy state, whose officials are in perpetual and constant commu- nication with their heads of departments, Finally, it must be borne in mind that while we are conscious of much that we do, we are also utterly unconscious of a vast number of our actions. When we come to think of it, the fact of our resembling Messrs, Maskelyne and Cook’s figures, in some respects, is a tremen- dous advantage tous. We have not to think about every actof life; hence we are saved much intellectual wear and tear. Reading and writing, and piano playing, and walking, and many complex actions, may be and are per- formed i without the necessity for thought. tting anything off by heart,” as the schoolboy puts it, “tis really converting something which at first cost intellectual effort into something which is purely automatic in its nature; and the things which are most ma- chine-like in our actions are just those which are most purely “reflex” in their nature. The Indian thief tickles the sleeping man with a straw, and causes him, in his sleep, to roll over on his pillow, so that the valuables beneath his head may be abstracted. This may be an il- lustration of nefarious conduct; but it is, none the less, an excellent example of reflex action unconsciously performed when human nature lies still in the silken bonds of ‘“death’s twin- brother, sleep.” oo The Queen Uncrowned. London Correspondent Philadelphia Telegraph, An incident occurred at the drawing-room last week which caused great amusement in the royal circle, While the procession in front of her majesty was proceeding a cry of “Shut the doors!” was suddenly raised, and the ever-flow- ing stream was suddenly checked. Do not fear. A traitor had not been discovered in the throne-room. No attempt had been made on the life of our gracioussovereign. But a catas- trophe had taken place. The mistress of the robes. the duchess of Buccleugh, who stands immediately behind her majesty, was of course arrayed in the deepest of mourning. But her gown being trimmed with heavy jet ornaments, these had become entangled in the royal veil, without at- tracting the attention of their wearer. Her majesty, turning round suddenly to speak to the Lord Chamberlain, found her cap, tiara and veil violently jerked off her head, to the horror of the court and diplomatic body. All the princesses immediately crowded round to re- pair the damage, but her majesty was so amused at the contretemps that some moments had to elapse before her subjects patiently, or rather impatiently, waiting behind the closed doors, and marvelling at the sounds of “revelry and mirth” that fell upon their astonished ears, were allowed to enter and make their cour- tesies, coe One of the latest novelties is a sectional silver champagne bottle. which on being taken apart serves as a cigar holder, match stand and ash tray.

Hood's Sarsaparilla is un- doubtedly the best biood purifier. It expels every taint, drives out scrofulous humors, and gives to the Diood the quality and tone essential to good health. ‘Now is the time to take HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA. “My daughter suffered terribly with sore “eyes, caused by scrofula humor. We were oblized to keep | her out of school for two years. We had medical at- | tendance, but she failed to gain relief. At Inst, know: | ing that Hood's Sarsaparilia hadcured my mother of | rheumatism, and believing it must be good for the | blood, I concluded to have my daughter try it, and it | has entirely cured her." CORNELIUS YEAGER, 412 | East Main Street, Marshalltown, Iowa. PURIFIES THE BLOOD. “Hood's Sarsaparilia has cured me of salt rheum, | which I have had for years. I do think it is a splendid medicine. Iam 40 years of age and my skin is just as smooth and fairasa piece of glass. I have six chil- dren, and when anything is the trouble with them the first thing I go for is Hood's Sarsaparilla” MRS.
