Marrying to Reform.

THE ATTEMPT NOT ALWAYS A SUCCESS

Lrdies who think of marrying ex-convicts to reform them can get points from Mrs. Charies Callen, of Oakland. That estim able lady, when Mrs. Ella Higby, became interested in the Convicts’ Home of that city, and subsequently transferred that in- terest to ex-convict Callen and married him to complete his reformation. The ex periment does not appear to have proved a success, a8 Mrs. Callen is now trying to recover $5,000 that her husband appro- priated as the proceeds from the sale of a part of her property, and she had to seek refuge at a neighbor's to avoid an irate ex convict spouse who was brandishing a re- volver. Marriage as a reformatory institu- tion for convicts and drunkards is decidedly a failure, whatever success it may ba as an institution to be cultivated for his own sake, but this is atruth that ladies of a reformatory frame of mind have to learn by their individual hard experience.

Wooing Sleep.

A NEW METHOD BY WHICH A WAKEFUL

MAN MAY FIND SLEEP,

The Delsartian doctrine of rest by volun- tary muscular relaxa‘ion is somewhat con- firmed by the experience of thuse who have

acted upon this theory in overcoming in- ‘Somnia. Nothing so qaickly brings sleep a8 the voluntary disposal of the body and | limbs in such @ fashion as to produce mus- cular relaxation. The legs and arms should be so placed as to bring them in contact with the mattress at as many pvints as pos- sible. This affords support and relives the muscles. Ths body should be dispused in like fashion, and if all has been done properly the wover of sleep will presently have the consciousness of resting with his whole weight directly upon the mattress. | When once this feeling comes sleep usually follows. The plan is far better than the |old one of repeating the numerals or going ‘over some meaningless series of words, for it has the double advantage of putting the physical man into an attitude of repose and of distracting the mind from whatever thoughts are at enmity with sleep.—New York Sun.

The Jews in New York. HOW THEY HAVE BEEN BEHAVING THEM- SELVES DURING THE YEAR,

Judging by police reports there has been less of the deceitfuluess, chicanery, and fraud that are popularly and often un- justly held to be discinctive of the poorer jJews in the acquisition of this amazing wealth and influence than among an equal number of nominal christians of similar class. It is certain that the homely vir- tues of which King Svlomon, Franklyn and Smiles are the apostles have been the prin- cipal creators of Jewish affluence and pow- er The pradence which confines expen- diture within the limits cf income, the dil- igence which rejvices in improving oppor- tunity, the far sightedness which deposits money where it will do the most good, and the promlse which is held to be as binding as the legal contract, are the chief factors of fortune with them as with all men. The best proof of the moral standing of the | Hebrews is to be found in the relatively | low percentage of their numbers in prisons and reformatories. Only two murderers, iit is said, have sprung from their ranks in 250 years. Drunkerness is not a Jewish vice. Neither is anarchism a Jewish in- sanity. Its subjects disavow and even re-

As Bad as a Sea Fight.

_ BRITISH JACK TARS IN THE CLUTCHES OF La GRIPPE—-CONDITION OF THE FLEET.

Despatches from Malta say that the British fleet at that placa is in a state of weakness which might be compared with that of a fleet having passed through a severe engagement with anenemy. The flagship Victoris, 15 guns, 10,470 tons, has 60 men in the hospital suffering from influenza ; the Amphion, 10 guns, has 39 men down with the same disease; the In- flexible, 12 guns, bas 40 men under treat- ment; the Trafalgar, 10 guns, the flagship of Rear Admiral Lord Wal- ter T. Kerr, has 39 men in_ the surgeon's hands, and the crack torpedo ram, Polyphemus, hasa third of her crew sck with the grip. Finally the Dreadnaught, 4 guns, is coming back from Salonicy, where half her crew are suffering more or less trom ,the prevailing epidemic. Of ceurse these figures give only a slight idea of the spread of the disease in the British Mediterranean fleet, for the Agamemuosn, the Australia, the Bea- bow, the Colossus. the Edinburgh, the Teme- rarie, and the Undaudten, the battle ships in

those waters, have had many influenzs suffer- ers among their crews. The above list does not include the many cruisers and gunboats of the British Mediter- ranean fleet whose crews have not escaped the grip. This causes people to remark that if there isany serious trouble in the Mediter- ranean, the British sailors wil! have to go into action in @ slightly demoralized condition.

Mayor Washburne, of Chicago, has three children born on St. Patrick’s Day, July 4, and Christmas Diy.

A young Norwegian in Minnesota fell heir to a baronetcy and fortune in Norway, and the good news 80 elated him that he proceeded to get drunk and was frozen to death in a barn.

While D. W, McLeod, of Amherst, was visiting his home at Glengarry he went out to his brother's lumber camp and there shot two large bears, one weighing 400 !bs., and the other a little over 300 Ibs.

The queen of England has written two books which have never been published. They are works of travel, recounting her impres- sions on the Continent. She has refused to have them published till after her death.

A colored mad of Madison, Ga., claims to have discovered a process of extracting live worms from decayed teech He exhibiis sume specimens of worms said to be so ex- tracted, about a quarter of an inch in length and of a flattened shape, and dark brown or nearly black in color.

A queer libel suit has been instituted against a newspsper in Indiana for aver- ring that the plaintiff's horse was fed on soup, being too vld to eat corn. He claims $2,000 damages, alleging that he has suffered great mental anguish on account of the publication.

A dense fog on Thursday enveloped New York on and vicinity, and trafhe of all kinds, both on land and water, was much imped- ed in consejuence. All the ferryboats on the North and East rivers experienced some difficulty in making their landings, and in some instances the boats took near- ly an hour to cross.

You may talk as much as you please of the grip and diphtheria. No doubt their ravages are sufficiently alarming. But if you want your hair to stand on end with horror just contemplate the epidemic that has committed to an untimely grave nearly every New York resolution which on Jan. Ist was so hearty and robust. Hardly one of the whole tribe is left.

The Boston Herald declares the s-nallest American city is Vergeenes, in Vermont, which, after 103 years of cityhood, has a population of oaly 1,773, and covers a terri- tory of but 1,200 acres. ‘‘There are offices enough for nearly every man in the town to have ope. In this way the political squabbies and seiifish struggles for power commor to most cities are entirely overcome.”

A new article of fuel was utilized by the steamer Dunedin on her last trip from Clenfuegos, Cuba, to New York. She ran out of coal and the crew had to tear down the woodwork of the cabin and forecastle to supply the furnaces This also being consumed, and a heavy storm prevailing, the captain ordered the firemen to shovel sugar into the furnaces. Before arriving in port fifty tons of sugar (about $2,500 wortk) were burned.

Chicago has started a crusade against the man who persists in carrying his hands in his pockets on the streets, and thereby con- verting his elbows into instruments of positive danger to his fellows. If it will enlarge that platform so as to include the woman who carries her umbrella at an angle of forty-five degrees, and the youth who puffs cigarette smoke in. one’s face, Boston will join the windy city in its cam- paign and make a national affsir of it.

A rather peculiar incident recently happen- ed a short distance outside of Riversine, Cal. A telephone wire broke between two offices, about 15 miles apart, and yet an ordinary eonversation could be carried on over the wire after it was broken, though the magnetic bell would not ring. There being no other wire on the sime poles at that part of the line where the break occurred, it is supposed that the current was carried between the ends of the broken wire through the wet ground. A few feet below tae surface there is what is known as hardpan, which probably acted to some ex- tent as an insulator between the upper and lower strata of earth.

A Russian newspaper recently undertook to investigate the conditions of the bosia kemanda, or tramp fraternity of Russia, and declares that in Kiel alone they number more than 2,000 persons, living in the alleys, barges and other available hiding places along the Dniper, and that two-thirds of the number are men of culture, g-aduates, many of them, of the universities and theological semiasries. “A more wretched and dissi pated crowd,” remarks the paper, ‘‘it would be hard to imagine. All the more dismal and appalling appears their life for the very reason that men of culture and knowledge are enlisted in the raaks of this wretched fraternity,
