The table announces the death of William Thompson, formerly known as t .Bendigy," who passed from the prize ring to the pulpit, and was probably as well known,ia one as the other. He was 68 years old at the time of his death. Nearly a quarter of a century of his life was spent. in the ring. He enjoyed the proud distinction of having whipped Tom Paddock, and of having fought forty-eight asatch:fights up to his fortieth year, every one of which was won. When he was converted he held in his possession three belts, including the champion's, and sev- eral prizes and testimonials in the shape of silver cups, etc. In addition to his success as 0 fighter, he became famous as .a ekdful fisherman, and his record shows that be served 28 terns in jail for drunk - nese and disorderly conduct. He is said to have resembled in aspect an Eng- lish country squire who lived a life of un- broken serenity, and he bore only a few of the marks which usually distinguish a than of his calling. He boasted that in all his battles he never received a black eye, but admitted a broken thumb, a broken finger, the lose of a tooth and part of one ear, a broken knee -cap, and a blow ,that fiattened the bridge of his nose.. Be was a broad shouldered man light if foot and extremely active with his aroma. "Bendigo,'• as he himself used to rattle off the story of his remarkable life, was the , youngest of a family of twenty-one children, all of whom are now dead. He was early in Life forced to ex- ert hiinself to procure the necessaries of life. lie did not think he took to fight- ing because he liked it, but he had a mother to support and could get a living easier in this way than in any other. His mother encouraged him and he 'eagerly fell into the business. Before engaging ilia fight it was his custom to get on his knees and sat', "Let me win this fight so I may have the money to keep my }Noor old soother out of the work -house." Thisiie meant as a prayer to. his dead father, who, he believed, could help hint win. He began life in Nottingham. where most of his exploits were performed. He was the most no- torious man in the town, and a frequent line in the }aper was "ltendigo in trou- ble again.' In pris.,n he was taught the folly of his ways. He said the chaplain told him of throe men. `thadrach, Mes- each, and ife,tdspo. Ahendgo who were list in the fiery furnace, and who, were saved by the Lord from herng hurried.

They hepppened to meet in a railway carriage, and, getting into o,nvereetion, Howe complained of the prejudices of men of science, who refused to investigate the phenomena of spirit- ualism. "Mr. Home," replied the great geologist, "I never refuse to investigate anything which promises to advance science, and nothing will give me greater delight than to investigate, the marvels which occur, as you say, at your meet- ings." "Well, then," says Home, "come this very night and witness the appear- ance of the spirit -hand.- "Nothing will give me more pleasure," answered Agaiz, "than to be one of the guests round the table where the spirit -hand appears. My opinion is that it is a physical hand, with a little phosphorus rubbed over it ; but I am open to conviction. All I ask is that I shall have the privilege of putting my stiletto through it If the hand is a spirit -hand, no harm will occur; if it is a human hand, I feel confident in my pow - to transfix it, on the table, much to the discomfort of the possessor," Home de- clined the test Such a want of faith, he said, would necessarily prevent the spirit hand from appearing. Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes says in a letter to a nneznber of the English Spell- ing Reform Association : "If 1 have not taken sides with the Spelling Reform movement, it is very probably because I vias not taken hold of early enough. I spell 'honor' and 'favor' with the u, and I may yet corns to 'catalog' and 'feloso- fe'-if that is gout phonography. At any rate I should not care to be an ob- structive (if I could be) in the way of any well -organized, scholary attempt to re- form our English -and American- lan- guage. It is certainly barbarous to snake ouglh take so many forms of pronuciation as it now does. But you must allow a fair share of old square -toed prejudice in their personal likings to old square -toed people. I hate to see my name spelled Homes, yet I never pronounce the L I know from old Camden that its deriva- tion is from the word holm, and I want the extra letter: an 1 is as good as inch in this connection, if I may venture a de- bilitated pleasantry. There are many things 1 should like to have a glimpse of a hundred years from now, among the rest our English spelling. I have little doubt that many of the changes you cont.mplate will have taken place, and that I should look back upon myself in 1880 as a hopeless bigot to superannu- ated notions long since extinct." "How Jay Gould lost his eyebrows," is the subject of a thrilling romance con- structed especially for the St. Louis Rep- ublican. He had his all staked on the Union Pacific, and the stock had been worked up from 9 to about 66. A case likely to snake his fortune or ruin him. was before the Supreme Court at Wash- ington. When the decision was to be rendered Gould hired a private wire, and took his seat at the New York end of it. The first of the opinion began to come over the wire, and it was a mere history of the case. "Oh, shut him off," cried Mr. Gould, "and ask him whether the de- cision of of the lower court is affirmed.', The answer was awaited with breathless anxiety. Gould sank in his chair, as pale as a dead man, and those about him were concerned for fear that if the decis- ion was adverse he would be killed by it. The operator at length gave the news, that the decision of the lower court had been affirmed. Mr. Gould was prostrat- ed, though the decision gave him mil- lions. He was carried to his home in Fifth ave.: and a Song sickness followed. All his hair came out, including his eye- brcow.. and those Nature never restored. W hart the gallant P, onsonhy lay griev- ously wounded .on the field of Waterloo, he forgot his own plight while watching am encounter between a couple of French lancers and one .of his .own men, cut of from his troop.
