FROSTS IN THE WEST.
Chicago, May 29.—8pecial dispatches
from Janesville, Beloit, Oak Creek, Fond-
du-Lack, Racine and other points in
Wisconsin, and from Freeport, Ill, re-
yort a severe and blighting frost which
as done very considerable damage to
the crops, particularly the corn.
Cleveland, May 29.—Dispatches from
all over northérn Ohio indicate that the
frost last night did groat damage to the
fruit, vegetables and grain.
Lancaster, Pa., May 29.-—There was a
heavy frost in this vicinity last night,
jce forming in many places. In some
places the young tobacco plants were
frozen hard, inflicting serious injury to
the new crop.
Reading, Pa., May 20.—Reports from
various points in this section indicate
that during the night there was a severe
frost. In some places ice was formed }
inch thick. Potatoes and garden vegeta-
bles were somewhat damaged.
Chicago, May 20.—A dispatch from
Rockford says a heavy frost visited that
section last night, doing great damage to
growing grain and vegetables. Corn in
many places a ruined and it is too late
to plant again.

FIVE MER KILKED IN A FACTORY.
Troy, N. Y., May 27.—A terrible exe
plosion at Waterford last evening caused
the loss of five lives and did much dam-
age to property. It was not a boiler this
time, but a bleacher in a straw-board
factory of Moore & Wilson that did the
damage. At the time of the explosion
there were nine men employed in and
about the bailding, and the wonder is
that any escaped, as the entire establish
ment was wrecked, the building falling
into a mass of ruins. A force was at once
put to work to rescue the men buried in
the debris.
mses ff M.A —
It is said to be an open secret that the
British Government has lately come in-
to possession of most alarming informa-
tion regarding the condition of affairs in
the Soudan. Strenuous efforts are made
to keep this information from the public,
bat it 1s known that El Mahdi’s emissa~
ries are successfully engaged in breediog
discontent among the Egyptian soldiers
who are garrisoning the Soudan, Milita-
ry experts say that sooner or later there
_is bound to be a wholesale mutiny of the
Egyptian troops, accompanied by massa-
cres of the Brittish officers, as in the Se-
poy rebellion of 1858, which like the
present rising in the Soadan, had a quasi~
religious basis, It is estimated that Ei
Mandi’s force includes 5,000 soldiers of
the Egyptian regular army. Some of
these men were captured after the defeat
of Hicks Pasha, and willingly changed
their allegiance to El Madhi, Bat the
great number have come to his standard
by the steady flow of desertions from the
doudan garrison, which bas been in pro-
gress for the past seven months,

THE FATHER OF 27 CHILDREN.
Seneca City, 8. C., May 25.—Near this
place there lives one of the largest fami-
lies in the United States. Mr. Joel
Vaughn has been married four times.
His last three wives were widows, all of
whom had children by previbus hus-
bands, respectively eight, seven and four,
a total of nineteen. These four wives
pore Mr. Vaughn twenty-seven children,
which, added to the mineteen children,
gave Mr. Vaughn control of forty-six
children. There are thus seven differ-
ent gets of children. The old man is now
BO years of age, and his youngest child is
an infant.

Backache, itchings in the side, inflation
and soreness of the bowels, are symp-~
toms of a disordered state of the digestive
and sssimilative crgans, which can be
promptiy and thoroughiy corrected by
the use of Ayers Cathartic Pilis. As
dinner pils, and as aids to digestion, they
have no equal. They cure constipation.

Ligonier, Pa, May 29.—Knupps tunnel
on the South Peunsylvania rainroad, was
tue scene of a terrivle accident by which
nise men were inslautly kilied and elev-
en others seriously injured, with slight
hopes of recovery. A large force of men

SMALL POX AT ASHLAND.
Ashland, Pa,, May 30.—~Small-pox still
continues to spread. The borough au-
thorities have built a hospital, which is
now almost filled. Three new cases have
GOOD LANGUAGE.
As soon as a child begins to lisp ite first
broken sentence, its education should be-
gin. Habits are formed which will exist
to a greater or less degree throughout
life. Buch being the case, the conversa.
tion of the older members of the family
should be carefully guarded, lest the lit-
tle ones hear and learn ungrammatioal
expressions and slang, which, sad to say,
is so rife umeng our young people of the
present day. The servants, with whom
children spend mueh of their time, should
be chosen with reference to this matter.
A mother should feel it hor duty to point
out any grammatical mistakes made by
them, and insist upon their language
being correct, respectful, and devoid of
slang at all times. It is exceedingly difli-
cult to break children of habits once
formed, and care in this direction will
save much trouble and annoyance. One
way to cultivate the use of langnage, and
at the same time to learn of the occupa
tions and companions of her children, is
for the mother to encourage the daily
narration of what they have seen, heard,
and enjoyed, and the telling of their little
experiences. The study of pictures,
moreover, in which every child delights,
may be used as » great provocation of
language. Children always love to look
at pictures, and can almost always be in
duced to talk about them. This study
teaches them observation, and how to so-
curately describe whatever they see. When
stories are read to children they should
be obliged to reproduce them, using as
far as possible the language of ths book.
The memory is much strengthened in this
way, a habit of attention formed, and the
power of expression increased. If such
plans na these are systematically cerried
out, they will prove a wonderful help in
the thorough education of a child. The
constant, careful teaching and kind sug-
gestions of parents will accomplish a work
which can never be performed by study,
aml in after years such early home train-
ing will show itself in a ready command
of language, and an easy, graceful power
of conversation.

LONG LIVES.
There is a belief among the East Indi-
ans that thealephant lives about 800 years,
and instances; are on record of the ani-
mals having been kept in captivity as long
as 130 years, their age being unknown
when they ware first taken wild from the
forest. Camels live from forty to fifty
years; horses average from twenty to
thirty, oxen about twenty, sheep eight or
nine and dogs from twelve to fourteen
years. It has been observed that ss a
general rade, the larger types of animals
live longer than the vertebrated classes
quadruy sds and birds, reptiles and fishes.
Some k inc s of birds attain a great age; |
the sw an has been known to live 100 years, |
and it 49s recorded that the raven has ex- |
ceeds that age ; birds of prey attain to |
great longevity, and the eagle has sur- |
vivead a century. Parrots have been
known to live sixty and as long as eighty
years. Phwasants and domestic poultry
rarely exceed ten or fifteen years. A tor-
toise was placed in the garden of the Ar-
chiepiscopal Palace of Lambeth in 1633,
during the life of Archbishop Land, and
lived till 1753, when it perished by acci-
dent. Sach batrachiana, as the toad, are
known to live about fifteen years. Fishes
and aninls that live in the water attain,
in many instances, toa great age. The
carp has been known to live 200 years.
Common river trout have been confined
in a well thirty and even fifty years. A
pike has ‘been known to live in a pond
ninety ya ws ; and Gesner relates that in
1497 an en ormons pike was caught in a
lake near Heilbronn in Swabia, with a
brass ring atiached to it, recording that it
was put in the lake in the yoar 1230 ; the
ring is stil | preserved at Mannheim. The
whale, it it 1 said, attains to an age of about
400 years.

‘Breton sheep. It is too small to be very

have mitch wool, and, as for eating, why,
a hungry man could eat almost a whols

But, if not a profitable sheep, it is a dear

ia not such a nuisanee about the house as
was the celebrated lamb which belonged
tos little girl named Mary. It would

girl indeed —who could take an ordinary
sheep in her lap and cuddle it there ; but
any little girl conld find room in her lap
for a Breton sheep, quite as easily as for
one of those very ugly little dogs called
by the ugly name of pug. One of this
little creature’s peculiarities is its extreme
with the feelings of its human
friends, when it has been brought up sas
pet in the house, and has learned to dis.
tingnish between happiness and unhap-.

very much pleased about anything, and
shows it by laughing, the little sheep will
frisk about with every sign of joy; but,
if, on the contrary, the person, shed tears
‘the athetio friend will evincoits sor-
row in an unmistakablo way. A
kind word and a lo caress will also
fill it with happiness, while a cross word
or harsh gest ure will cause it evident dis
