' Unhappy Ending, of the Chastisement of a Cautden Boy. _ Mrs. Daniel K. Zimmerman, of 908 Newton avenue, Camden, spanked her 3 - year -old boy Raymond, Saturday afternoon, for teasing his litt a sister. Ten minutes later the boy was ead. County Physician iszard, who investigated the ease last night, cannot account fdr the boy's .death. He says it is a moat singular case. He will make a post mortem examination. Mrs. Zimmer- man says she only used her open hand in chastising the' little fellow, and she did not spank- him very hard. After she set him down he began to choke and gasp for breath. She called,her husband, who pounded the child on the back, thinking something had lodged in his throat. This afforded no relief, and as the boy began to get purple in the faoe two doctors were sent for. When they arrived • the child was dead. ' The county physician..-. sicia ..• . thinks the child was suffocated by some foreign material in the throat, or by a spasmodic contraction of the.; epiglottis. The Zimmermans have several children, but this was their oldest boy and they are almost heart -broken over his (leath.- Philadelphia Record, Fashionable Colors in Horses. There is a fashion in the color of carriage horses. Once, many seasons ago, there was a rage for gray ; now gray animals are at a. dis- count and are, as a rule, associated with wedding . parties . catered for by a, livery stable. Light chestnuts had then a turn, but • they were found like certain shower _ma- terials, ma-aerials,not to wear well. One year roans were in fashion, and they were most satis- factory as to wearing 'qualities, and also as to temper. Even now a well -metaled pair of red roans are looked upon as quite correct and very' handsome, but the- color st 'the sea- son is dark bay with black points. • Dark browns were in • favor last season, and, naturally, since horses cannot change the color of their coats so easily as men and women, will be much used this year. Some good has certainly been done • by the recent agitation against the bearing -rein, headed by the Duke of Portland. We have noticed lately that many coachmenhave dispensed with it, and in the case oflady whips we have seldom seen it used. Once we saw the footman loosen the bearing -reins while the carriage was waiting, end so comparatively freed the horses' heads for a while.—Boston 't'ranscript's London Letter. Good Hands.

It is a curious fact that a bird which is more distributed over the surface of the rth than any other kind' which is better known to man, and more useful to him than any other, has in ourlanguage no distinctive name, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. This defect in nonleliclature se_extTs :tiff more strange when we remember that this favor- ite bird has Half a dozen cousin species, every one of which rejoices in a name that is all its own. The nameless, bird is the- well, the -barnyard bird about` whose capabilities for broiling, roasting and the like we usually care a great deal more than we do - about what n'e shall tall -it. But. isn't it queer that we have no name for it ? Commonly we call°the bird chicken. That is clearly a misnomer, unless we are alluding to the little fellows that have lately emerged from sttalattalasAassalrelassafsralaitsaraninasie "from being a chicken as a man is from being a baby. When we want to be specific, about the adult of this species we Americans pcall the male bird a rooster and the female a hen. But these terms. apply equally to many other species of birds. Probably the most favored word for the species is fowl ; but that is shooting very wide of the mark. Webster's definition of fnwl axing wp egs, an covere wit feathers or down—a bird." Shakespeare uses the simile, " Like a flight of fowl," and the Bible speaks of " the fowl of the 'air." Pope Leo. Pope Leo XIII. is now in his 81st year. His eyes are still remarkably black and bril- liant, but aside from this he has every appearance of an infirm old man. His features are thin and sharp, his complexion very pale, and'his hand trembles to such an extent that he is no longer able to write un- aided. Inlsigning documents he is obliged to hold the right wrist with his left hand, and even then the result is not satisfactory. This convulsive trembling is attributed to a fever from which he suffered several years ago, and from which he has never fully re- covered. The Pope bas seldom been seen to laugh during all of his long life. He lives ,plainly, eats alone, according to the estab- lished custom of Popes, while he isin ortse and is troubled with excessive ner- vbusness which often prevents sleep. Coffee as a Disinfectant. It has been demonstrated that coffee has disinfectant -properties and is very effective in killing fever germs. Dr. Luderitz, who has paid close attention to the subject did not use stronginfiisrons, but found that a certain harmless nticrococeus germ died in a 10. per cent. coffee solution in from three to five days. The bacillus of typhoid fever perished in from one to three days under coffee influence, and the cholera bacillus in from three to four hours. The germ • of anthrax or splenic ?ev�'er•' died in from two to--three-horn s, hat--tlre"spores of young forms of the latter germs perished in from twoto four weeks only.—Good Housekeegrin0 Pat's Great Wonder. • We are surrounded by dangers all the way from the cradle to the' grave.

People who feel that their shoes wear out too quickly should heed the words of a dealer in Chicago, who tells the Mail : Do you know there isn't a-tJan in five hundred who knows holy to wear shoe§ ? The average man buys. a pair of shoes, wears thein until they are no longer present- able, and then throws them away and buys another pair. A man ought to . have at least two pairs of shoes for every -day wear, and no pair should be worn twQ.days-in Silt. - cession. At first thought this may strike you as a scheme to benefit the shoe dealer, but it is nothing of the kind. In fact, such a plan would injure the shoe business. Two pairs -of shoes vvor i alternately will last three times as long as a single pair. The saving, of course, is made in the wear- ing of the leather. A pair of shoes worn every day goes to pieces more than twice as s.dl''.i'tl".j'JY.asas`iYtiTii"a•`i'iir`st iFsaa i iiia'EtMl•i`"'"'af'd"'�fi,='q gd two pair fit your feet in exactly the same way. In one pair the strain and wear of the loather falls. heaviest upon one particular part of the shoe, and in another the greatest wear and tear falls upon another part alto- gether. I took a trip through Europe last summer, and in several places I was sur- prised to find the shoes worn by peasants to arse worn -on either foot. I was told that such shoes were preferred to those which more closely conform to the shape of the foot, because they last longer, since the strain upon any part of the shoe to -day is changed to another part to -morrow."

At the most extensive aquarium in Eng. land, the Brighton Zoo, the female lobster recently cast her shell. She screwed herself up togetheron the toes and tail and suddenly bent her body. Snap went the shell in its centre and the case of the back came away and she , worked away at them for a long time. It was a proceeding of extreme deli- cacy, considering that all the flesh of the great claw had to be passed through th small base. During the operation one claw came oft altogether, and this must have seemed to the lobster lady a serious mis- fortune, as it will not grow to its full size again until the second year. The tail and legs gave very little trouble and the body when thus undressed proved to be of a pale blue. The shell -casting over, the lobster sank on the sand, and t1jis action seemed a signal for the attack of every creature ' in the tank: The defenceless victim .bade fair to suc- cumb to the fury of her enemies, when the male lobster suddenly came to the rescue. Standing over his shell -less better half he fought his assailants relentlessly. Day and night did he watch over her, until her shell Was. sufficiently hardened to protect her in fighting her, own battles.,. _ When: the happy moment arrived he deliberately picked up the old' claw, broke it in his nippers, and ate the meat.. He then dug a hole in the sand, placed it in the broken bits of shell, buried then, and piled a number of small stones above the grave. John Knows the Scheme.
