Everybody seemed wrapped in contemplation of the unex- pected demise of the revered gentleman, who had been so recontly in their midst. In retived apartments on the upper floor the family mourned in sceret, whil in the back parlor, on the east side, lay, in a eclosed casket, the re: ns of the deceased loved-one, Upon the rich dark velvet of the out case rested a small silver plate inscribed with the words, *“‘k M .’ There was nothing to denote either the age, the time nor the place of death of the de- ceased.

So, [ pass by, in silence, the career of the honored man’ whose body lies in our pres- ence. 1 say nothing of his eminent financial ability, 50 well known toall of you. I say nothiny of his public services, by which his name will ever be connected with our city’s frovtn and prosperity, 1 say nothing of filg road philanthropy, for wliich, so many of God’s poor thank and praise him with tears to-day. I say nothing of that faith in human nature—surely the chief charm in men of wealth—which prompted him so cordially to assist fellow business men in their troubles until brighter skies eame, 1 say nothing of the debt the churches of Omuba owe lim, the denomination of which I am a membe particularly, from its first planiing in the city until niow.

And, it we can conceive of a man rising from one earthly sphiere to another earthly sphere, and by so doing, increasing his own satisfaction and his power of imparting satisfaction to others, why should the law fail when the soul bursts through the veil that we call death and en- ters the highest sphere of all? “I'is is the substance of christian theology.

What Commissioner Timme Thinks About It. “The people of this county,” said Com- missioner Timme last evening, ‘“will make a great and grave mistake if they do not assent to the proposition to build a county hospital for the insane.” “How’s that?’ asked a reporter who standing near. imply because the way things are running the county incurs a big responsi- bility. I mean in allowing the insane patients to be mixed up with the other inmates of the poor house. It is abso- lutely dangerous to do so. Some of these insane patients are frantic at times, and comparatively uncontined as = they are, there is no telling what they may do. Why they are liabla to set the house on fire, or kill some of the other inmates of the place. For these and other reasons that I could name, there is a great necessity for this hospital. The fact is that the county will have to increase room next year anyway, and unless this measure is passed, will have toer, ward or structure as it did A temporary ast year.” KNIGHTS OF THE RING.

New Orleans Preayune: Animals get rid of their parasites by using dust, mud, v, ete. Those suffering from fever re’ strict their diet, keep quiet, 'k dark, airy places, drink water, and sometimes plinge into it. When a dog has lost its appetite it eats that specics of grass known as dog’s s, which acts as an emetic and purgative. Cats also cat grass, Sheep and cows, when ill, scek out certain herbs. An animal suffering from chronic rhenmatism alwayvs keeps, as far as possible, in the sun. The war- rior ants have regularly organized ambu- reille cut the itenn:e of an et ants came and covered the wounded parts with a transparent tluid from their mouths. If the chimpanzee is wounded it stops the bleeding by placing its hand on the wouna or dress ing 1t with leaves and grass. When an animal has a wounded leg or arm_hang- ing on it contemplates amputation by means of its teeth.

Animals suffering from traumatic “fever —tre themselves by the continued application of cold water, which M. Delaunay con- siders to be more certain than other methods. In view of these interesting facts wo are, he thinks, forced to admit that hygene and therapeutics as prac- ticed by animals may, in_the interest of psycology, be studie Many physicians have bee servers of “animals, their diseases, and the method adopted by them in their in- stinct to cure themselves, and have availed of the knowledge so brought under their observation in their practice. e s Novelists' First Books. nth Century: Novelists exhibit much diversity of habit with respect to the date of their first appearance before the public. In a list of thirty-two names two published their first work before twent, seven between tw nd twenty five, nine between twenty-five and thirty, seven between thirty and forty, and seven after forty. It may be observed that names of world-wide reputation ap- vear in each group except the first, Thus Dickens and Hawthorne fall under the It adopted a general treatment, food. The tirst of the four divisions: George ) ckeray and Victor Hrg) under tud nd; Fielding, Goldsmith and Geo % ot under the third, and Defoe, Rich- ardson, Sterne, Scott and Cervantes under the lust. The date at which the first notable work apy varies in much the same way. In a series of thirty-one names three produce a work of note be- fore twenty-live, nine before thirty, ;wulvc more before forty, and seven after orty. ‘The most remarkable examples of Iate development are Defoe, who, after devot- g the best part of his life’ to political polemics, suddenly struck into the path of fiction at the age of forty-four, and only gave his *Robinson Crusoe’” to the world eleven years later; Richardson, who published his first fiction when fifty- one; Sterne, who, after passing many contented years in the secusion of a country rectory, tried his luck as a noy- elist by publishing “Tristam Shandy’’ at the age of forty-six, and Cervantes, who, after years of active service, followed out an early impulse to letters in his thirty- sixth y and produced his master- picee at the age of lifty seven, Ll Sad Fate of the Great Eastern.
