Aman entered the outer room of the British Consulate: in New York, on the afternoon of the 25ih inst., drew a large revolver and fired two shots, apparently without definite aim and without hitting anyone, and then ran from the building, but was captured by a policeman. At the station-house the prisoner described himself , aroused in the pages of several daily papers over the use of the word ‘“‘lady.” Corres- pondents properly complain that it is now so universally applied as to be absolutely meaningless, and our eare are constantly offended by such termsas ‘‘saleslady,” ete. The whole matter can be easily settled. In the most refined and intelligent portions of society, the word lady is seldom if ever used, the good old Saxon word woman as John A. Feeney, aged 26, He said he being employed instead, and to hear persons had recently been discharged from the speak of “my lady or gentlemen frienda,” hospital at Buffalo, and declared that he stamps them now quite as ‘‘just ele- aul, who had been libelling his character.

While there he was offered five hundred pounds to swear falsely against his fellow. prisoners. When it beeame known he had informed he was Jocked up in a stage coach and conveyed to Liverpool Toronto.. There he was placed in the in- sane ward of the hospital, but was finally released, and went to Buffalo three weeks ago.

Qn the following day he went there again, and asked for the name of the person who was printing blasphemous letters against his character. They laughed at him, when he fired. He has been held for trial. No doubt of his insanity is entertained. -—~e@ee -—- -~—- The Harvest in the Northwest. The Winnipeg Commercial reports that in our great Northwest the harvest is now all but gathered in and stacked. Threshing, it says, is being vigorously prosecuted in different parts of the country, and new grain has already appeared on the market at some points. The quality of the wheat is all that could be desired. Only in very exceptional cases has there been any dam- age from frost, and its effect will be scarcely felt. The price being paid is a very satisfactory one, and while it continues such farmers ought to get their grain to market as quickly as possible. Farmers shonld also carefully lock ahead and pro- vide themselves with the very best samples obtainable for next spring's seeding. A great deal depends upon gowd seed, and those who take the greatest pains to secure such will find themselves amply rewarded by the returns of another harvest.” ee A Model Girl. A newspaper writer thus describes the ideal girl:—I saw a girl come into a street- car the other day, though, who had, I was ready to bet, made her own dress, and how nice she did look. She was one of those clean, trim girls you see now and then. She was about 18 years old, and, to begin with, looked well-fed, healthy and strong. She looked as though she had a sensible mother at home. Her face, and neck, and ears, and her hair were clean —absolutely clean. How seldom you see that. There was no powder, no paint on the smoeth, rounded cheek, or firm, dimpled chin; none on the moist red lips; none on the sheill-tinted but not too small ears; none on the handsomely set neck—rather broad bekind, perhaps, but running prettily up into the tightly corded hair. And the hair! It was of a light chestnut-brown and glistened like specks of gold as the sun shone on it, and there was not a smear of oil or pomatum or cosmetic on it; there was not a spear astray about it, and not a pin to be seen in. it. As the girl came in and took her seat she cast an easy, unembarrassed glance around the car from a well-opened gray eye, bright with the inimitable light of ‘good condition,” such as you see in some handsome young athletes who are “ in training.” There were no tags and ends, fringes, and furbelows, or fluttering ribbons about her closely-fitting but easy suit of tweed. ——+ + 9 <> oe Mr. Talmage is Made Sick. HE DENOUNCES THE PEOPLE GOING TO HEAVEN IN PULLMAN CARS. ‘Tt makes me sick,” roared Mr, Talmage in the Brooklyn Tabernacle, “to see these Christian people who hold only toa part of the truth and let the rest of it go. I like an infidel a great deal better than I do one of these namby-pamby Christians.

People now-a-days want to reach heaven in a Pull- man sleeping car; to go in on soft plush and have the beds made up early, so that they can sleep all the way, and tell the black porter of death to wake them up in time to enter the golden city. They want soft sermons in Morocco cases, but such won't convert the world.

One may say “‘acertain nan is a gentleman,” but should never say ‘‘gentleman friend,” ‘society gentleman,” etc. A prominent morning journal lately headed an obit- nary notice of a prominent person in eocial life, “Death of a Society Lady.” How much better ‘‘Death of a Society Woman” would have looked and sounded. If writers and talkers would only stick to the plain ‘‘man” and “woman,” and use “lady” and “gentleman” only when abso- placed aboard the Circassian, and landed in| rae Aq ecessary, there would be no furtiitr ee amas Self Reliance.

The lack of this necessary element is too apt to foster a spirit of irresolute dependance, and not unfrequently develops into cring- ing toadyism. The social, political and commersial results are usually the same where self-reliance is wanting, and in all three fields success is the exception and not the rule. The above principles hold good not only in individuals but may, with rare exceptions, be extended to associations, communities and even nations, and illus- trations of their truth are well known to any observing man. —_—> CURRENT NOTES. By taking revenge, a man is but even with his enemy; but in passing it over he is superior.

Two sudden deaths have taken place re- cently in England almost immediately fol- lowing wasp stings. In the first case the medical man rendered a verdict of heart disease. In the other death wes attributed to syncope caused by fright and shock to the system.

The rumor that Captain Scott-Siddons, husband of the actress, has gone mad in Australia and been placed in a madhouse is believed. He was a man of handsome person, elegant manner, and intelligent mind, but he went hopelessly wrong, equan- dered his wife’s earnings, aod left her no alternative but to separate from him, at the cost of bestowing upon him a considerable property in Australia. Mrs. Scott-Siddons lives in England. Mr. Edison says that the idea of proprel!- ing vessels through the water by electricity isadream. He says it is not impossible, but it is impracticable. There is no motive power, and can be none which does not re- quire for its production the expenditure of equivalent energy before hand. Mr. Edison says the dynamo and batteries necessary to propel the steamer Alaska across the oceen, at the rate which she is propelled by steam power, would weigh 63,548 tons. A Russian girl named Mary Leftschtz, nineteen years old, was taken to Bellevue Hospital, New York, suffering from poison- ing. The woman has been in this country about two years and has been employed in an east side tailor shop. She conceived an ardent admiration for a young Russian who failed to reciprocate her affection, In a fit of despondency she soaked a quantity of matches in water and drank the solution. At the hospital the usual remedies were prescribed, but without avail, as she died shortly before midnight. The story has been related of the Hon. Hannibal Hamlim that once, in his active political days, he attended a party caucus at which there was only one present beside himself. He promptly elected the other man chairman, had himself appointed secre- tary, and then transacted a)] the business in hand; and when he made out the cre- dentials of the delegates chosen, he wrote in them that the delegates were elected at a “large and _ respectable caucus’”— “because,” he explained to the chairman, ‘‘you are large and J am respectable.” The Salvation Army has 180 officers abroad, In India a sufficient number of natives has joined the Army to provide in- terpreters in the most prevalent languages of the principal cities, and the work has been, with the exception of £100 or £200, entirely supported by funds raised in India. The growth of the Army in the Australian Colonies has been the marvel of the year. Twelve months ago there was only some three or four corps established in South Australia. Now,in the four Australian Col- Zealand the Army has twenty-four corps,under some forty officers. Half a dozen buildings have been erected or purchased.
