A Good Puzzle. Those who arc curious as to magic uarcs will find something to interest them : Pirton's "Life of Benjamin .Franklin." This great philosopher was very fond of inventions ot this son. iicre is me cor rect answer to the puzzle : "In what man mav the odd numbers, from 1 to 49 Jn.'lusivc, be arranged so that the sum of each row of five figures shall be 125?" 33 47 1 15 29 45 9 13 27 31 7 11 25 39 43 19 23 37 41 5 21 35 49 3 17 To Pensioners. The couutry is now being flooded with circulars of claim agents, addressed to pensioners, suggesting to all of them that by applying to such agents they may obtain an increase of pension. The fact is that Congress did not, at its last session, give any "increase to any class of pensioners. Invalid pensioners, viz., men who are now pensioned for wounds and disabilities, can as thev always could, eet an increase if their disabilities have increased. The pro cess to obtain such increase is very simple, and any pensioner may adopt it without any expense. Let him write to the Com missioner of Pensions and ask him to be fur nished with "blank application for increase .f an invalid pension." Upon its receipt he will execute it according to its form aud directions and then return it to the Com missioner. The officer will direct him to be examined by a surgeon, and that will end his labor in the matter. The employ ment of a person to aid him will not only be wholly uselcs but will subject him to the payment of a fee from which ho will derive no benefit. Bird Charity. Wc have read a good deal about the characteristic instincts of birds, but the fol lowing actual account of a circumstance which happened this summer in West Pitts ton, goes far towards establishing the be lief that there is a lanjruaire anions the music inhabitants of the air which is under stood by them in common. A lady noticed a small chipping bird flying about for sev eral days in front of her premises, appcar mtly very busy in constructing its nest. She also observed that its attention was divided between two trees, to each of which the little bird paid mutual attention. A closer watch revealed the fact that to one tree the bird conveyed sticks, straws and other things used in nest-building, while to the other it carried food in the shape of worms, crumbs, &c. These operations were daily observed until the lady's curiosity became greatly excited and she determined upon an investigation. "With the assist ance of a friend this was made, when it was discovered that chippy was playing the Kood angel to an unfortune blackbird which has a nest in on one of the tress, but whose Igs, upon examination, were found to be almost cut off by a piece of fine wire which in some mysterious way had become en tangled around the slender bones. The bond was so strong as to forbid the use of either wings or limbs, and the poor bird in some way had managed to tell its sorrow to little chippy, who it was discovered had been feeding it daily while building its own neat in an adjoining tree. "When the black birds thongs were removed, its friend never visited the tree again. LOST IN A BALLOON. prof. Donaldson's fate an ascen sion MADE ON TIICRSDAY, AND THE AERONAUTS NOT YET HEARD FROM A ROTTEN BALLOON IN A HURRICANE. There is every reason to suppose that Prof. Washington Donaldson, whose name was prominent in connection with the Graphic transatlantic balloon voyage last summer, with a Mr. Greenwood, a reporter of the Chicago Journal, perished in Lake Michigan on Thursday night. Donaldson has been connected with Barnum's Hippo drome the present season, making ascen sions each afternoon. The last ascension was made at Chicago on Thursday after noon last, since which time neither balloon nor its occupants have been heard from. JV hen the balloon left the circus ground at o 0 clock, it rose at an altitude of 5.000 icet into the current of a wind blowing M-eaany to the northeast directly toward tC Michliran. Tt, W:m cmno- ut. ? riirn nf 1? miles hour. There were about 1L0 miles of water to traverse before a landing could be made, which would re quire about eight hours. When about in Jhe midst of the lake it is supposed that a hurricane, which had been gathering on the banks for some time, struck the bal loon, dertroying it at once, leaving its un fortunate occupants at the mcrey of the waves. How the two men met their fite we shall probably never know. A tragic chorus ng their requiem in the roar of the thun der and the wail of the wind. Had there been a fitting inspiration of such an end- -, ineir death would have been heroic ut w. a as their enterprise was, nobody ;7. , nk without a thrill of the two souls wcii passed away amid the crash and the 01 mat tempestuous midnight. THE WHEAT CROP. Reports to the Department of Agricul ture. Washington, July 23. The returns of the Department of Agriculture for July show the condition of spring and winter wheat at about 82 per cent, of an average. Winter wheat, including California, aver ages 74, and spring wheat 9G. The spring wheat States iu the Northeast and North west arc generally iu high condition. Of the winter wheat area the South Atlantic and Gulf States are generally above average, but in the Middle States the conditiou is very low, New York rangiug down to 45. West of the Alleghanies the prospect is better, the State averages being between 71 in Ohio and 95 in Iowa. California re ports winter wheat at 70 and spring wheat at 55 ! SUMMARY VENGEANCE. A Band of Robbers and Murderers. Memphis, July 25. Last Tuesday Frank Williams, engaged on Hancock's plantation, on Frenchmen's Bayou, forty miles above here on the Arknnsas side, disappeared, he having drawn ten dollars from his employer the evening before, and was last seen in company with John Randolph and John Phillips, colored. Search was made for them and it was found they left. Pursuit was made, aud they were overtaken and carried back to Shawnee village yesterday. On their arrival they confessed to having murdered Williams. The murderers were then carried to Crowcll Landing, on their way to Osceola, the county town, and reach ing the landing, they informed their captors that they belonged to a band of which Rob ert Burton, a white man, also employed on Hancock's plantation, was the leader, and one Jesse Carter (colored) was also a mem ber ; that they were organized for robbery, and had murdered several persons. Quite a crowd had collected by this time. The indignation of the citzens was intense, finally culminating in a mob taking the prisoners out and shooting Randolph, killing him instantly. Phillips broke from his keepers and escaped. Yesterday the whole neighborhood was in search of him. Ran dolph's body was thrown into the river. Warrants were sworn out for Burton aud Carter. They were arrested and taken to the Osceola jail. y BANK ROBBERY. Safes Blown Up With Nitro-Glycerine Arrests Made on Suspicion. Lewiston, Me., July 23. The Na tional Bank of Winthrop was entered by burglars this morning, and the bank vaults and safe of the Savings Bank were opened. The loss is not yet ascertained. WiNTiiour, Me., July 23. The rob bery was a bold operation. The safes were blown open by nitro-glycerine, as is sup posed, there being no indication of powder. There were three distinct explosions, all of which were heard by several persons. The robbers left within ten minutes of the last explosion, which was so severe as to blow out all the windows in the front part of the bank and cause a general smash up inside. The contents of the main safe were so badly mutilated and so many frag ments were left behind that it is thought the amount realized by the robbers could not have been large. The capital stock of the bank is S10o,(j00, and the amount of the deposits in the savings bank was about $100,000. The safes of both institutions were rifled of their entire contents. The standiug of the bank, the directors say, will not be impaired. A despatch says four men have been arrested on suspicion near Bethel. As the distance from here is about forty miles, it is doubtful if they could have got so far in the time they have had. Portland, Me., July 25. Yesterday the three men calling themselves Lewis. Clark and Levi, who were arrested at Bethel on Friday, on suspicion of having been connected with the robbery of the National Bank of Winthrop, were taken on the first train to Winthrop in charge of the deputy sheriff, Mr. Woodward of Winthrop, who accompanied Sheriff Carr to Bethel, has identified the men as the three whom he saw in the streets of Winthrop the after noon before the burglary. After their arrest they were searched, and about 50 were found. The man calline himself Lewis is the largest of the party, and is evidently the leader, as he does most of the talking. The authorities arc confident they have the right men. It is thought the loss to the bank will not exceed 850,000, two-thirds of which is in bonds. The heaviest loss falls on the savings department. The standing of the bank will not be impaired. Only Decoys. Winthrop, Me., July 25. It is now thought here that the three men arrested are not the real burglars, but decoys to engage the attention of the authorities while their confederates make good their escape They are undoubtedly connected with the affair, however. The bank has offered a reward of 10,000 for the apprehension of the burglars. MARRIED. On Saturday, July 24th, by A. "V. Loder, EKqr., Mr. Situon P.
