French parents hnvo often com plaiuod of the remissness of their sons who are in the army in not writing to them. After the various reductions have been made tho French soldier has only a cent a day left for luxuries or umusemcnts.

From the Mid-Continent the follow log statistics are taken : The Bchool population of the United States in 1890, reckoning the school ago be tween five and twenty inclusive, was in round numbers 22,590,000. Tho average annual increase for tho pre ceding ten years was about 413,000. Supposing this proportion of increase to have been maintained dnring tho past throe years.the school population to-day should bo in the neighborhood of 23,700,000; and it is more probable 24,000,000. Of those about 3,000,000 are Roman Catholics and 21,000,000 ere Protestants. It is hoped, remarks the New York Tribune, that tho now cruiser Mont gomery is not "hoodooed," as was the old Iroquois.

Connecticut Courts Deoide it to Be En tlrely'Legal. With the hanging of "Jack" Cronln on August 24, will be inaugurated a new mode of execution In Connecticut. The old gal lows which has been enrted nbout to do duty since the banging of Anderson, the Wnlling ford murderer, hns been used for the last time. In Its stead will be nn improved automatic banging machine, which com pletely revolutionizes the style of execution. Ily the old method the couib'mned limn was dropped through ail opening In the sculTold, Ihe drop being released at the proper time. Ily the new machine the murderer is Jerked high iu air and then drops and Is suspended. There nre thus two ehuli"es to breuk tho neck, while by the old way there was ouly one chance, aid often this fulled, und death was by strangulation. It Is bellved by the tests mnde thnt forty seconds will bo ampin time. As the cord tightens and Is pulled downward by the plunger it slowly opens the compound lever, which at a certain angle, perfectly adjusted, nulls a bolt, nud tbe great dead weight is re leased. This will weigh twice as mue'i ns Cronln, or 800 pounds. As the big weight fulls down tho grooved track to the ground under the building the hempen rope running over pulleys on across beam will ipilckly jerk the condemned man seven feet Into the nlr. On the drop there will be a rebound, nnd the mnn will be sus- fiended with hit feet about two feet from the loor. That there may be no more bungling work or delay Wnrden Woodbrhlge bus arranged for a shutting oft of the mechanism. or be can hurry It along. Ily pressing hit foot on a but ton in the floor hu can close the cylinder con taining tho shot, while by pressing another button be can pull out the sliding valve, re leasing nil the shot and dropping tho dead weight Instantly. As soon as be bus a signal from a man adjusting tbe noose he will cause tbe weight to drop. The mechanism will be enclosed by a par tition along the entire side, so that nothing can be seen by the condemned mnn except the noose. The machine works noiselessly, and the weight fulls upon soft dirt. The wnrdeu has drilled his deputies la the part that each may tuko uutil there Is almost perfect work. SHE WAS PLAYING DEPUTY.
