He had lost an arm during the IiM'.cn Mutiny, and this made him very sym pathetic towards people who were similarly afflicted. While wa.Uns to the barracks one day he met an old one-legged man, evidently in abject poverty. Ah, you have met with a grat misfortune like myself, I see," re maked the colonel. 'Aye, sir," replied the old man, with a salute; "and like yourself col onel, I have spent a pre .it put of my life in her Majesty's service and seen a great deal o' hard work." "My poor man," said the kind- hearted veteran, as he slipped a half crown Into the old man's hand, "1 feir you have received but a poor re ward for your services."

"But you can't back the nutoinobllo so far," she said," and 1 don't Intend to move for anybody. He should have seon us."

Two Boy Whone Peculiar Talent Attracted (ieneral Attention Some of the Ulllleult Tct Through Whleh The? fanned ucoef all y, George Turkcr Bidder was born in ISOt) at Morton llauipsteiul, In Dev6u- shire, where bis father curried ou a small buslnesM ns a Htoncmiisou. At the early age of four lie allowed a most ex traordinary ability for calculation, which with slight nsHlstuuee from nu elder brother assumed quite plieuom eiinl proportions. Ills peculiar talents soou attracted general attention, and his father found It u much more prof itable employment to carry his son about the country ami exhibit him as the "ciileulutluR phenomenon" than fol lowing his trade. In this way young Bidder visited niuuy parts of England, astonishing the ilUTeient people who cumu to iuestlou him by the wonder ful rapidity with which be was able to answer, without external aid of any description, the most Ulllleult ques tions. Of these the following are n few of the most extraordinary examples: If u flea spring two feet mid three inches lu every hop, how many hops must It take to go uround the world, the circumference being I'.'.OJO miles, and how long would It be performing the Journey, allowing It to take sixty hops every minute without Intermis sion? Answer, 5S,71.'l,(i0() hops mid 1 year, 314 days, 13 hours and 20 minutes. Tho following question was solved by lihu In forty ncconds: Suppose the bull ut the top of St. Paul's cathedral to be six feet lu diameter, what did the gliding cost at 3'i pence per square Inch? Answer, 237 Ills. Id. The following in one minute and twenty seconds: Suppose n city to be Il luminated with O.'.KItl lamps, each lamp to consume one pint of oil every four hours In succession, how many gal lons would they consume In forty years? Answer, 10!).4S0,0."0 gallons. Another curious question was: Sup pose the earth to consist of 017,000,000 Inhabitants nud suppose they die lu thirty years and four months, how ninny have returned to dust since tho time of Adam, computing It to be D.SoO years? Multiply the answer by 00. Puring one of his exhibition tours. fortunately for the lad, his perform ances attracted the attention of emi nent scholars, who, after making In quiries, subsequently undertook his education. Ho was attached to the ordnance survey for a short time and afterward wns associated with Ste phenson, the great engineer. Some yenrs after be entered purlin ment, and numerous stories are extant of his wonderful skill lu detecting a flaw lit some elaborate sets of calcula tions, whereby he was often enabled to upset an opponent's ease, or nt other times he would establish his own case by arguments based upon mathemnt leal data, possibly only at the moment placed before him. It Is said thnt on one occasion nu opposing counsel asked that he might not be allowed to remain In the committee room on the ground that "nature had endowed him with qualities that did not place his oppo nents on a fair footing." After taking a leading part la many Important engineering works' he died at Dartmouth Sept. 20, 1S78. Another of these extraordinary chil dren, between whom and Bidder hon ors were almost equally divided, was Zereh Colbum, bom nt.-Cabot, Vt; Sept. 1. 1S04. Signs of his wonderful power appeared at a very tender age. The discovery wns accidentally made by his father, who was much surprised one day to bear him repenting the prod uct of several numbers, although at the time he had received no- other Instruc tion than such as could be obtained nt it small country school whose curricu lum did not include writing or. cipher ing, lie thereupon proposed n variety of arithmetical questions to bis son, all of which the child answered with re- mnrknble facility and correctness. At the age of eight tho boy was able to solve most difficult questions by Oio more operation of his mind. Many persons of the first eminence for their knowledge In mathematics made a point of seeing nnd conversing with him, nnd they proposed to him a great variety of questions to test his mar velous powers. Among them were the following: Olve the square root of 000.000. Aft er hesitating a little he replied 000.000, 000,001 nnd observed thnt ho produced this result by multiplying the square of 37.037 by the square of 27. lie was then nsked to multiply the answer twice by 40 nnd once by 25, a task Which ho accomplished successfully, though the answer consists of seven teen figures. Name the cube root of 41S,003,3-18,- 077. To this he gave the correct an swer In five seconds. How many times would n conch wheel twelve feet In circumference turn around In 250 miles, nud how many minutes In forty-eight years? To the first ho replied lu two seconds 112,(H0, nnd to tho second, bo- fore the question could bo written down. 25,22S,S00. What are the fac tors of 247.4S3?
