"Yes," said the asylum physician, sadly,
as he conducted a visitor through the gloomy
building where so many unfortunates were
confined, "we see a good many sad things.
For instance, look at that wretched maniac
over there, whose eye is as vacant as the eye
of a corpse. Three months ago it gleamed
with the fire of genius; he was a man
among men. Intellectual, eloquent, com-
manding, he was admired by all, and a
golden future was apparently before him.
But on a Utah day he commenced to study

now. He is incurable. He walks up and
down the corridor all day repeating these
words: If the tariff on lumber be removed
and the tariff on wool be increased. how
much of a eurplus will remain in the Trees-
ury when the export duties on pauper labor
be added to the internal avenue derived

The Eagae's Mistake.
The comfit= eagle is a bird of wonderfully
keen sight, says Harper's Young People.
At a height of eighty yards it cen see a
grata mouse or stoat, and having once locat-
ed its prey it will swoop down with the
speed of an arrow and rise with the victim
in its claws.
Mr. Samuel Wilmot, the sunerintendent
of the Canadian fish hatcheries at New-
castle, Ontario, told me the following story
of an eagle :—A pair of eagles built their
nest near our house well up in a large pine
tree year in and year out for many seasot s.
One autumn the cold weather set in earlier
than usual and the smooth parts of the stream
that ran by our house were frozen, but the
eagles still remained in the big pine, save
when they flew abroad. for food, One
morning as 1 aat at the window looking in
the direction of the pinee I noticed one of
the birds leave the tree and poise directly
above a rough part of the river which was
not frczen. Teen he went down like a bolt
and disappeared under the water. I watched
with great interestto sett what he would
fetch—watched one, tome three, four sec-
onds, but he did not appear. This was
something so unusual that 1 became intense-
ly interested. I stood at the window for
half a minute watching where the bird had
disappeared, and then, sure that something
had happened to him, I snatched my hat
and ran down to where lay my little boat.
After some difficulty I managed to get it in-
to the open water, and then poled to the spot
where the eagle had gone under. Looking
down I saw the bird, his wings partly ex-
tended, and held fast to the bottom in some .
unaccountable way. With a grappling -hook
I drew him out. judge of my surprise when
there came to the surface, beeides the eagle,
an enormous salmon. It was for this splen-
did prize that the eagle had made his plunge,
Of course he had buried his strong, sharp
talons in the side of the fith, but when he
wanted to rise he could not lift his prey.
Neither oould he draw his talons from the
salmon's side, and so had perished. The
fish weighed a trifle over thirty pounds.
Not long ago Bunapone Rat:ladle, an Ital-
ian workman on the water -works at Dever,
N. H., received notice that he had been
drafted into the Italian army. He at once
settled up his small affairs and started for
his old home. Asked why he didn't stay in
America and pay no attention to the draft,
he said that if he did he would never dare
to return to Italy, for he would be liable to
arreet and imprisonment,
