Fanatieal Punishment of a Child.
Mary Swingler was on Saturday
sentenced at Rochester; N. Y., to six
months’ imprisonment for having a few
months’ since, burned the hands of the
daughter, seven years of age, by hol-
ding them over. the: stove. The
Rochester Union says :
It was alleged by the prisoner, it
will be remembered, when in the Po-
lice Court, that the little girl had sto-
len a piece of candy, and it was to de-
ter her from committing further thefts
that she punished her in the manner
she did. By rosting the little one’s
hands over the stove the said she in-
tended to give heran idea of what hell
is, a place to which she would surely
go if she stole any more. A person
would naturally suppose that a v oman
who would inflict such a dreadful
punishment on a little child is a very
she-deyil, but Mrs. 8. is not to be placed
in that category.. She thought it her
duty to punish the child to save its soul
from. perdition, and nothing could so
well convey her idea of perdition to
| the little one’s tender mind as ronsting
its hands over a “young hell,” the

The largar root, pushing its way to the
precise spot océupied by the skull of
Roger Williams, had made a tnrn as

direction of the back bone te the hips.
Here it divided into two branches, sen-

when both turned upward tothe toes.
One of these roots, formed a slight
crook at the knee, which made the
whole bear a striking resemblance to
the human form. There were the
graves, but their occunants had disap-
