"WONDERFUL LONDON."—The City Press says that London may be safely asserted the greatest city this world ever saw. Never before in this planet's history has there been gathered together such a concourse of human beings. Rome, which resembled London, as the centre of a world-wide empire, never reached a third part of its population. Paris, Vienna, and Berlin united would but a little more than equal it. Its present population is about five millions and ninety-four thousand. SEASONABLE ADVICE.—A weekly contemporary comes to the help of suffering humanity, just now, by advising as to the best method of keeping yourself warm, thus: "Throw the shoulders well back, and hold the head well up. Inflate the lungs slowly, the air entering entirely through the nose. When the lungs are completely filled, hold the breath for ten seconds or longer, and then expire it quickly through the mouth. After repeating this exercise while one is chilly, a feeling of warmth will be felt over the entire body, and even in the feet and hands. It is important to practise this exercise many times each day, and especially when in the open air." ROMANTIC MARRIA&E.—A correspondent states- "Among those saved from the Dutch emigrant ship "W. A. Scholten," which was lost off Dover in November last, was Miss Gold. She acted with great fortitude at the time of the sinking of the vessel, and begged the few English people on board to join hands and die together. A few days since Miss Gold was married at Winchelsea, Sussex, to Mr. T. Mitchell, of Van Burren, Bonaparte, U.S. Mr. Mitchell is a farmer, and having determined to marry advertised for a wife in England. Among those who applied was Miss Gold, and her portrait having been approved, she was proceeding to America to marry the advertiser. References had been exchanged, but neither party had seen the other. After the catastrophe in the Channel, Mr. Mitchell journeyed to England, and, as stated above, the marriage ceremony was performed at Win- chelsea a few days ago." EXTRAORDINARY CASE.—A singular case came before Mr. Arthur Powell, deputy judge of the Greenwich County Court, last week, being one in which a smart-looking widow woman, named Harriet Attwood, of 52, Selcroft-road, East Green- wich, charwoman, sued Robert Charles Vohmann, Deptford, baker and confectioner, for damages, medical attendance, and loss of time caused by a pin sticking in the plaintiff's throat, which, it was alleged, had been negligently left in a bath-bun sold to the plaintiff. For the defence it was sub- mitted that there was no negligence, and defendant and his man were called, who swore that no pins ever went near the bakery.-The Judge said he only remembered one similar case in recent years, and that was where a man swallowed a needle at the Holborn Restaurant while eating some spinach. It was, however, clearly proved that no needles were ever used or allowed in the restaurant, and the jury came to the conclusion that there was no negligence. This case was different. The pin might have got into the flour, or any person visiting the bakery might have dropped it so that it got into the bun. He must give a verdict for the plaintiff for the amount claimed, and costs. A PENHOLDER IN A MAN'S BRAIN.—A most ex- traordinary case has just been investigated by the East London coroner. It seems that a commercial traveller named Moses Raphel. of 100, St. Paul's- road, Bow, was taken ill and was removed to the London Hospital. His death subsequently took place, and at the inquest Dr. Doyle, who had had the man under his care, said on opening the head he found a penholder and nib, about 3in. long, attached to the right orbital plate. It must have been there for a considerable time, as the bone had partially grown over it. The only way that it was possible for the pen and holder to get to the brain was by passing through the eye or up the nostrils. Deceased's widow stated that her husband had never complained of any accident, but that lately he had suffered from pains in his head. Dr. Doyle said it was a mystery how a pen and holder of such a siza could get into the brain without the man's know- ledge. It was the most singular case he had ever heard of. An open verdict was returned. THE EXTERMINATION OF THE BISON.—A singular proof of the almost complete extermina- tion of the bison in North America is furnished in the report of the Smithsonian Institution at Washington for the past year. It appears that although this animal has been practically extinct since the great slaughter of the years 1881-83, it was not until 1886 that the museum authorities noticed that their collection of specimens was far from complete, and ought to be filled up at once if it was desired to retain memorials of the fast- disappearing beast. Steps were at once taken to obtain a fresh series of skins and skeletons, but the difficulty with which they were procured showed that the collectors were only just in time. The great herds which within the present century ranged over the plains from New York State in the east of the Rocky Mountains in the west had disappeared, the victims of, perhaps, the most reckless slaughter ever perpetrated by man. A few were said to remain in the Yellowstone Park, a few in the wilds of north-west Montana, and a few in Texas. A hunting expedition was at once despatched to Montana, but it only succeeded in obtaining three specimens, though later on in the year 22 more were killed and preserved. These small collections of skins and skeletons are now regarded as of almost priceless value, for very soon they will form nearly the only remains of an animal which once provided some 300,000 Indians with clothing and the principal part of their food. The tales told of their vast numbers almost exceed belief, "countless thousands being the favourite expression used in describing the herds as they were seen on the immense plains on either side of the Mississippi. They did defy the most wasteful methods of slaughter on the part of the Indians, who used to set fire to the grass of the prairies and kill them in hundreds while overcome by fear and consternation, nnd sometimes also drove them over precipices but the systematic pursuit of the white hunters, armed with rifles, and bent on procuring skins, has been too much for them, and they have disappeared. A similar fate awaits, at no distant date, all the great game of the United States, for the elk, mountain sheep, goat, deer, moose, and other forms are s) rapidly declining in numbers that in a few years they will be found no longer in their ancient baun ts.-LivellJool Mercury, A YOUNG SCOUNDREL.—At the Chester Assizes, on Monday, before Mr. Justice Wills, an impudent- looking young fellow named Thomas Thorpe, alias James Henry Marsh (18), groom, was charged and convicted of the robbery of several articles from Crewe Station, belonging to passengers on the Lon- don and North Western Railway. The prisoner behaved in a most extraordinary manner in the dock, frequently interrupting the witnesses, ad- dressing impudent observations to counsel and wardens, and charging the detective with having robbed and threatened to murder him. At one stage he shouted to the judge, "Here, I am guilty of murder try me for that first." It was soon ap- parent that the prisoner's eccentricity was assumed with an evident object, and Mr. Taylor, the deputy- governor of the prison at Knutsford, said on oath that it was all put on. After prisoner was found guilty he was removed below, and on the way made a desperate attack on the warders, biting one of them in the arm, and creating a sensation in court. Witnesses were called by Mr. Walter Jones, who ap- peared for the prosecution, to show that the prisoner had been previously convicted of attempting to wreck a tram at Southport, and that he had always borne a bad character, having once been charged with railway robbery atMossley-hill Station. After luncheon, when the prisoner was callid up to receive sentence, he complained that he had not received a fair trial. His lordship sentenced bin to five years' penal servitude, whereupon prisoner ejaculated, '■ I have not had a fair trial, and may the judge go to
LIQUOR TRAFFIC IN WALES.I
LIQUOR TRAFFIC IN WALES. The widespread agitation throughout Wales for renewed and more sweeping legislation upon the liquor traffic in the principality has resulted in the introduction into Parliament of a bill entitled, The Liquor Traffic Local Veto (Wales) Bill." As may be gathered from its title, the new measure has for its object the enabling of owners and occupiers in Wales to have effectual control over the liquor traffic. It has been prepared and brought in by Mr. Bowen Rowlands. Mr. Richard, Mr. Thomas, Mr. T. E. Ellis, Mr. Lewis, Mr. Esslement, Mr. Cossham, Mr. Bryn Roberts, and Mr. Carew, and consists of seventeen clauses and four schedules. Its general effect is to give into the hands of the two classes mentioned the power either of doing entirely away with, or of more rigorously confining, the liquor traffic of the district which desires to make use of the proposed legislation.
