On the morning of the 26th of No vember I read in the Rutland Herald the following note: "Murder 1 Printers of newspapers throughout the United States are desired to publish that Ste phen Boom of Manchester in Vermont is sentenced to be executed for the mur der of Russell Colvin, who has been ab sent about seven years. Any person who can give information of said Colvin may save the life of the innocent by making - immediate communication. Colvin is about 5 feet 6 inches high, light complexion, light hair, blue eyes and about 40 years old. " This communication was copied gen erally by newspapers and created a great deal of interest. Before describ ing events that followed, let us go back some years and ito the little town of Manchester. - Barney Boom, an old man, had two sons, Stephen and Jesse, and a daughter Sarah, wife of Russell Colvin, a half witted laborer.; They were a bad lot poor, ignorant and in. bad repute for honesty. Two hovels served them for shelter, and a few acres of pine barrens constituted all their possessions: They raised a few potatoes and garden vege tables and eked out a scanty livelihood. In May, Colvin was at home. In June he was missing. At first this occasioned no remark. He was always a tramp. But this time he did not come back. As weeks grew into months inquiries be gan to be made among the neighbors about the missing man. There are no tongues for gossip like those that wag in a Yankee village. One spoke to an other. Excitement grew. Wonder, like a contagious disease, affected everybody. - It was known that there had long ex isted between the old man and boys, a grudge against Colvin. It was' in proof that the last time the missing man was seen he was at work with the Booms clearing stones from a field, and that a dispute was going on, and Lewis Colvin, a boy," son of Russell, had stated that his father had struck his uncle Stephen, and that the other returned the blow, and that then he, the boy, becoming frightened, ran away. Again, a Mr. Baldwin had heard Stephen Boom, in answer to the inquiry as to where Col vin was, say, "He's gone to hades!" For seven years the wonder grew. Colvin 's ghost haunted every house in Bennington county. There was no proof that the Booms were guilty, and yet everybody believed it. A button and jackknif e were found, which Mrs. O. believed to have belonged to RusselL Dreams .thrice repeated were had by old women and kitchen girls, and 10,000 stories were in circulation. Five years after Colvin was missed Stephen Boom removed to Denmark, while Jesse remained at home. After the former had gone some bones were ac cidentally found in the decayed trunk of a tree near his house, and it was uni versally believed that they were part of a human skeleton. Of course, then, they must be Colvin's bones. Jesse was ar rested, Stephen was brought back, and both were held for examination. Al though all the testimony when- sifted was found to be worthless, yet the two brothers-were remanded back to jail and Jesse was worked upon to make him turn slate's evidence. The jailer tormented him with suggestions which his wife followed up with womanly adroitness. Neighbors helped. Beset withr preaching and prayers, tracts and sermons, religious conversation . and pious directions told that there was no doubt in any one's mind that Stephen committed the murder urged to make a clean breast of it, and thus save both his body and bouL what wonder that the man confessed, or was alleged to have confessed, that Stephen Boom did murder Russell Colvin? ; The grand jury found a bill of indict ment against Stephen and Jesse Boorn for the murder of Russell Colvin. "Wil liam Farnsworth testified that Stephen confessed that he did it and that Jesse helped him ; that they hid the body in the bushes, then buried it, then dug it up and burned it, and then scraped the few remains and hid them in a stump. Upon this unsupported evidence the jury returned a verdict of guilty against both prisoners, and they were sentenced to be hanged on Jan. 28. And now the men came to their senses. They asserted their innocence,' They said that they had confessed as their last hope. Some compassion began to be felt for them. They might, after all, be innocent. . A petition for their pardon was presented to tbe legislature, but it availed only to obtain commuta tion of Jesse's sentence to imprisonment for Ufa Stephen was to be hanged. Let the reader-now turn to another chapter of this history. " In tbe year Colvin disappeared there Jived in Dover, N. J., a Mr. James Pol hamus. During that month a wayfarer, begging food, stopped at his door. Be ing handy, good natured, homeless and weak of intellect, be was allowed to stay, v He said his name was Russell Colvin . and that he came from Man Chester. Not far from Dover lies the town of Shrewsbury, then a quiet hamlet, now invaded by the cottages and villas of Long Branch.- pleasure seekers. Here lived Taber Chadwick, brother-in-law to Mr. PoLhamus. Accidentally.reading a New York paper, he met, not with the notice of the Rutland Herald,' but with an account of the trial of ' the Booms. Convinced that the Russell Colvin al leged to have been murdered aa the Very man then livtncr Tm he wrote" to the paper a . " ' was published. -,uPn the arrival if this paper at Manchester if excited but little atten tfon.. The letter was believed to be a fraud. Had not the best people in the town. long , believed the Booms to be ynilty? Had not one perhaps both of them made full confession? The bones Of the murdered man; a button of his coat, his jackknif e had they not i all been found? Had not an upright judge made solemn charge : that the evidence was conclusive, and an intelligent jury found them guilty, and the legislature sanctioned the findings? There was no doubt of their guilt, and, therefore, no benefit of a doubt fiad been given by jury, chief justice or court of appeaL Mr. Chadwick's letter was, neverthe less, taken to Stephen's cell and read aloud. The news was soverwhelming that nature could scarcely survive the shock.. The poor fellow dropped in a fit to the floor and had to be recovered by dashes of cold water. :. ' ' Intelligence came next day from a Mr. Whelpley, formerly a resident of Manchester, that he himself, had been to New Jersey and seen Russell Colvin. The members of the jury which had convicted the Booms, however, hesitat ed to accept anything short of the man's presence, and the judge who had sen tenced them pointed to Stephen Boom's confession.1,-' :jv; '-:-r tt The third day came another letter. "I have Russell Colvin with me," wrote Whelpley. "I personally know Russell Colvin, " swore John Rempton. "He now stands before me. " It is the same Russell Colvin who-married Ann Boorn," Mrs., Jones of Brooklyn made affidavit But t it would not answer. Doubt of opinion dies hard. , Manchester intelligence, not to say piety, was on trial, and it behooved all good residents to hold out against conviction to the last. - i " However, Colvin, "or Colvin's double, was on his way. His story was printed in every newspaper and told at every fireside. Toward evening of Friday, Dec. 22, a vehicle was "driven . furiously down the main street ot Manchester to the tavern door. - It contained Whelpley, Kempton, Chadwick and the bewilder ed Colvin. Immediately a crowd of men, women and children gathered, around, and as the sleigh unloaded its occupants theytook their places on the piazza, exhibiting the lost man to view. : "That's Russell Colvin, sure enough! There's no doubt about it!" came from the lips of scores of the gaz ers. He embraced his two children, asked after, the Booms and started for the jaiL The prison doors were unbolted and the news was told to Stephen Boorn. ? "Colvin has come, Stephen, " said the keeper. j "Has he?.' asked tbe prisoner. "Where is he?" i. "Here I am," said his brother-in-law. "What's them on your legs?" "Shackles." j I M What for?" "Because they say I murdered: you. " "You never hurt me," replied Col vin.;' " i f - Stephen Boorn was released from prison, as was Jesse also. Russell Col vin returned to New Jersey. But the judge who suffered an innocent man to be convicted of murder by the admis sion of extra judicial confessions, the members of the jury who deliberated but one hour before agreeing upon a verdict of guilty j upon evidence that should not hang a dog, the deacon, and church members who urged confession and preached repentance, and the 97 members of the legislature, sitting as a court of appeals, who refused rehear ing of evidence what became of them? -New York News. GREENLAND'S SUMMER. Professor Heilprln Corrects Some Popular Misconceptions About It. As with many of the foreign countries, there is a wrong impression existing in the minds even of well bred persons with reference to the nature of the pen insula of Greenland. It is supposed to be a cheerless waste of . ice and snow, and indeed a land of desolation.' On first ac quaintance the country does not seem calculated to inspire enthusiasm, but this feeling soon wears away and the returned traveler from Greenland is. smitten with "the arctic fever," the principal symptom of which is a long ing to return to these northern shores. Professor Angelo Heilprin, in his inter esting account of the Peary relief expe dition conducted by him, thus speaks of Greenland:' "Once the foot has been set upon the mirrored rocks the charms of this garden spot one by one unfold themselves. The little patches of green are aglow with bright flowers, rich in the colors which a bounteous nature has provided. The botanical eye readily distinguished among these mountain pink, the dwarf rhododendron, several pieces of heath, the crowfoot, chickweed and poppy, with their varying tints of red, white and yellow. Gay butterflies flit through the warm sunshine, casting their shad ows over 'forests of diminutive birch and willow. "Here and there' a stray bee hums in search of sweets among the pollen grains, while, from afar, woven through the music of gurgling rills and brooks, come the melodious strains of thousands of mosquitoes,, who eer cheerfully lend their aid to give voice to the landscape. Above this peaceful scene tower the dark red cliffs of basalt, which from a height of 2,000 feet look down on a sea of Mediterranean loveliness, blue as the waters of Villafranca and calm as the surface of an interior lake. Over its bosom float hundreds of icebergs, the output of the great Jacobshavn glacier, 50 miles to the eastward, scattered like flocks of white sheep in pasture. "Such was the summer picture of the region about Disco as it was found by the writer in two successive seasons. There was little of that Greenland look about it which we habitually associate with the region, nothing of those terrors which to the average mind reflect tbe qualities of the arctic world. " Love's Prodigality, A Michigan avenue youth was dilat ing to a friend upon the charms of his adored one. His friend was disposed to distrust somewhat the accuracy of the young man's vision. - "She is beautiful, you say?" "As a star!" "And rich?" "Bah 1 I know not nor care. " "True, that is a secondary considera tion. Buf is she very wiser" "Wiser than Solomon!" r ; "Excellent. I suppose she is also of fine family?" - Family, my boy? Family?

ABOUT ELEPHANTS. 1b ELIEF THAT THEYARE ENDOWED WITrt .SUPERIOR INTELLIGENCE. They Have Mental Qualities Not Possessed by Other Animals Interesting Btbries About Them The First One Brought to Thia Country;-- '.. .- Elephants never go to sleep without leaving one of tho herd awake to. keep watch and give warning in case of in trusion. . Go. into the big menagerie tent of . the show any night after the ele phants have gone to sleep, or go into one of the elephant cars on a night run, and you. will find that, no matter how quietly and stealthily you have entered, he eye of one member of the herd is upon you. y , . f Conklin believes, as do most' all ele phant keepers, that the animal can un derstand -what is said to it. t Indeed; trainers assert that it has more intelli gence than any other animal,; and that it is the only one that can be taught to inind by word of mouth, -without other cues. That it is endowed to a limited extent with reasoning powers is certain. One German philosopher thinks he has discovered that this mental development is due to the fact that in the trunk the elephant possesses a prehensile organ similar to the hand of man. The hand, H ne asserts has played a more important part in the development ' of the human intellect than any other agency, since it brings its possessor into more intimate relations with the external world than any other organ. Some menagerie man,' with., more practical observation than the.-German, professor and a smaller bump of theorizing, has pointed but that, the only flaw in this reasoning is that if it is correct the gorillas apd chimpan zees ought to. have a higfief mental de velopment than man, because they have four; good hands instead of two, and any one of the four is stronger than the eight hands of four men. , - ' Well authenticated stories' of the sagacity of elephants are so numerous that it is never necessary to resort to ex aggeration to say something interesting' about them. In their wild state the leader of a herd has been seen when ap proaching swampy ground to extend one foot to try its solidity before trusting his weight to it When satisfied of its firmness, he would go confidently on, and tbe whole herd would follow in single file, cautiously stepping in the footprints of the leader, so that when the entire herd had thus passed the ground would look as if a single animal had gone that way. The same trait of caution is preserved in the domesticated animal The action is not the result of training, but a brute instinct always dis played and, bearing a striking resem blance to reason. When -Jumbo tried to butt a fast freight off from the Grand Trunk tracks in an effort to save the baby of the Bar num herd, Tom Thumb, and lost his life in the attempt, it was said that his action gave unmistakable evidence of reason, though it was poor testimony to his judgment that ho so greatly under estimated the force of the locomotive. In the matter of the food value of dif ferent materials the reasoning power of the elephant is very faulty, however. He will eat almost anything that comes his way. " If a canvasman leaves a coat or vest hanging on a quarter pole with in reach of an elephant, the big brute will edge over toward it and watch an opportunity when unobserved to touch it with his trunk. Then he will begin to haul it toward him, putting in rolls of hay and chewing them between times. As soon as the garment is at his feet the elephant will put one of his ponderous five hoofed pedals on it and begin to tear it up, rolling the pieces in his trunk and stuffing them into his mouth. The sole of a shoe is just as goodTfor him to chew, on as a wisp of hay, and -his natural instinct of mischief inclines him to prefer that which he- knows ia forbidden him. 'I The first elephant brought to America for exhibition purposes was Old Bet, and it ha? often been remarked that tho American circus was built on her shoul ders. Different accounts fail to agree in regard to the date of her importation which is placed all the way from 1776 t6 1833 by different writers of old time reminiscences. Old Bet was brought over in the ship America, of which Cap tain Crowningshield was master, land she landed, according to the harbor rec ords, in Phil-ielphia in April, 1798. She was but feet high, and the 'sum of $10,000 was paid for her, the largest price that had been paid up to that time for any, animal, either here or in Eu rope. She was first exhibited in Phila delphia and astonished the publio daily by drawing the corks from 30 bottles of beer and drinking tbe contents.) On the 20th of June, 1 799, she passed through New York on the way to! Bos ton. , Old Bet had been bought on the com munity plan by a number of farmers of Putnam county, N. Y. , at the instance of one Ludwig Bistadler, each mortgag ing his farm and putting $500 into the venture. They exhibited her under wag on sheds at hotels by putting a piece of side canvas up in front of the shed. The admission was 25 cents for adults and 12)4 cents, or a York shilling, for chil dren. This gigantic zoological institute, as the caravan was called, traveled east as far as Pawtucket, R. L, where the elephant, in spite of its docile disposi tion, was shot and killed. As the "in stitute" contained no other attractions the show closed. The same proprietors then imported a second elephant, whioh they also called Old Bet, and -they en larged their exhibition by adding to the collection a lion and a two horse cage and one monkey in a box strapped on to the hind end of the lion's cage. The second Old Bet ianded in 1 833. Follow ing her to these shores the next pachy derm to arrive seems to have been Mo gul, a very big fellow with long tusks, who was burned on the steamer Royal Tar between St John's and Portland, .

Reaumer, the scientist of ther mometrical fame, was- appointed to make an investigation of the spider silk question. In his report he said that he had found that 2,304 silkworms would produce one pound of silk in a given time, and that he considered the work of 12 spiders only equal to one silkworm At that rate 27,648 spiders would do no more than 2,304 silkworms. Further more, it was found that there are 5,000 separate filaments in a single : spider thread, and that the males are not work ers. After summing up his investigations., he. found that 65,298 spiders would have to be kept in order to . get as much silk as 2, 804 silkworms would produce. . That report "was the deathblow to the pro posed spider silk industry. St Louis Republic. No Use.
