The beauty, the glory, the her oism, the self-sacrifice of his life and death is a story worth telling, The glory of his death is grander than the heroic death of a soldier on the field of battle, because the soldier dies while trying to de stroy life, but this brave boy died while trying to save life.

Tn ih old dava. and not to verv teachew "boarding around" was the USUal thing in COUIltrT districts. Al- tom which teachers sel dom liked, it is doubtful if many of them had as hard a time as a young schoolmaster who described his ex- perience in the New England Gal axy for 1817. The article was writ ien J ?maru aimiwu. l I T J t 4l iU an undergraduate of Bowdoin college. The young schoolmaster was to re- ceive $15 a month and his board: From the first day I perceived that I was at board on speculation and at the mercy of a close calcula tion, he writes. One day the whole dinner consisted of a single dum pling, which they called a pudding, and five sausages, which in cooking shrunk to the size of pipestems. There were five of us at the table. A few days afterward on my re turn from school my eyes were de- bghted by the sight of an animal I had never seen before. It was a raccoon, which the young man, Jon athan, had killed and brought home in triumph. When skinned he seem ed to be one entire mass of fat and of a most delicate whiteness. I was overjoyed and went to bed early to dream of delicious steaks which the morrow would bring. Long before daylight I heard the family stirring, and the alacrity of quick footsteps and the repeated epening and shutting of doors all gave assurance of the coming holi- da f was soon ready for breakfast, and when seated at the table 1 ob served that the place of Jonathan was vacant. "Where is Jonathan V I asked. "Gone to market," said they. "Market! What market, pray ? I did not know there was any market in these parts. "Oh, yes, they said, "he is gone to , about thirty miles to the southward of us. "And what has called him up so earlv to go to market r "He is gone, said they, "to sell his raccoon.

Robbed and beaten by three mask ed men, bound hand and foot and his head thrust into a blazing fur nace from which he was withdrawn only because the door was not large enough to admit his should ers, and then placed on the fly wheel of an engine, which was aft erwards started, but from which he fortunately fell at the first revo lution, though it is believed that he will recover from his terrible experience. Neibert, who is engineer of a grain elevator here, went to the engine room early this morning as usual and started the fire. Short ly thereafter three men, believed to be negroes, entered the room and attacked him. He is a powerful man and for a time kept the trio at bay, but was finally overpowered and $10, all the money he had with him, was taken. His assailants then at tempted to hide their crime by cremating him. Only his head could be forced through the iur- nace door, however, aud this at tempt was abandoned. The rob bers then placed the body of the unconscious negro between the spokes of the wheel and set the engine in motioo, evidently be lieving that Neibert would be torn to pieces. But at the first revolu tion of the big wheel, the engineer slipped to the floor, where he was found still unconscious, some time later. There is no clue to the identity of the robbers.
