A J)£SPEEAD0 dogged. jiHd FluOIy Captared by twe â- urlas Seteettvea. A despatch from West Virginia to the New York Heraldgives tlie following account of the capture of anotber memlier of the no- torious Hatfield gang of murderers. Another of the murderous Hatfield gang has been dragged in manacles from the rough mountains, where the desperadoes Iiave so long defied the law and slaughtered m they chose. The bloody liorder war that lias strewn, the shores of the Tua River with graves is being rapidly brought to a close by the iron nerved deteotlTes iriio are prowling tlirough tiie great wilderness to wuoh law has BO long been a stranger. Itti^esa man with a lion's heart to go into the strongholds of the Hatf elds now. Every trail over the mountains or along the creeks leading to the Hatfield settlement is picketed by ambushed murderers, who would kill witliout mercy any man they Bospected. These detectives are going through experi ences such as one reads of in dime novels. It seems hard for a man who hears their tales to believe that such things can be in a civilized land. Ellison Hatfield, alias Mounts, the brute who was captured after a desperate struggle in the mountains with Detectives OibfBon and Cunningham about three weeks ago, made a full confession. He implicated Alexander Messer as one of the slayers of the McCoy boys, who were shot to death in August five years ago by a merciless tri- bunal of the woods headed by " Devil Ance" Hatfield. Messer is known aa one of the most des- perate ruffians on the Iwrder and was a con- spicuous figure in Breathitt, county trouble in Kentucky a few years ago. It is said that he killed five or six men in that county and Iwasted that he had killed twenty six men since the war. So frightful were the deeds of this man that he was feared even by the Hat fi side, to whom the shedding of blood is common- place. Govemcr Bnckner, of Kentucky, offered a reward of $350 for Messei's body, and Gibson and Ctinninghani have been on his track night and day since they captured Ellison Hatfield. As he had left the Hatfield settlement soon after the murder of the Mc- Coy boys, feaiing the vengeance that Ken- tucky would wreak, the two detectives found it hard to locate him. It is worth a man s life to ask too many questions or to pry around too much in the region where they had to go. Finally they struck the desperado's trail and learned that he was living in a log hut, on Ugly Creek, in Lincoln county. On last Wednesday they met a man in Chapman's store in that neighborhood who answered to Messer's description. Fearing to make a mistake, the detectives manoeuvred. After a short talk with them the man invited them to his cabin. The detectives accompanied him, and when in his home he mentioned his name. Gibson at once whipped out hia revolver and covered the assassin. In an- other moment Messer was handcuffed. His fury was beyond d 'ascription. The captured murderer waa'brought to this city and taken from here to Catlettsburg, Ky., where he is now in jail. He is about fifty-one years old and has a wife and tix. children. He was formerly a depniy sheriff in Ptrry county, Ky. Messer declares that he would never have surrendered and would not have been captured only that the detec- tives got between him and his gun. He admits hoiving lived with the Hatfields at the time of the murder of the McCoy boys, but denies that he kUled either of them. He is the seventh of the Hatfield-McCoy murderers arrested by the detectives. Gibson, who made the arreipt, is the young- est member of the force, but one of the most f^arl-^ detectives in the United States. Single-handed he went into Che McCoy set- tlement and captured two of the McCoy gang, brought them to this State and receiv- ed the reward offered for them. In com- pany with other detectives about two weeks ago he made a raid on the Hatfields, captur- ing one and shooting the forefinger off Tom Chambers' hand, also shooting him through the side. On that trip Gibson lay in the woods three days without any thing to eat except what chestnuts he could find among the leaves. Oheesine.â€" A Yankee Fiodnct. A new name has leen coined for an Amerioan sulwtance which has been for a long time on the Amerioan and British mar- kets and which is alleged to be eatable. It is now called "cheeaine," indicating that it is first cousin to those disreputable count- erfeits, "butterine" and "oleomargarine." "Cheesine" is doubtless cheese made from milk the natural fat of which has leen ex- tracted at the butter factory. To the skim milk cheese any very cheap animal fat Is added. The produc; is sometimes called "lard cheese." The combination of words is quite as insulting to the hog as it is to the cow. Of course anybody who wants to eat a combination of skim milk and the fat from " died' animals is at liberty to do so, bnt Legislatures everywhere should step in and compel all such commodities to le sold under their correct descriptions. In Can- ada we have not yet arrived at "cheesine," and in the interest of our immense dairy ex- port business it is desirable that the Domin- ion Government should prohibit the manu- facture of the stuff unless it can be abso- lutely prevented from going upon the mar- ket under a false name.

A miniatine balloon of peari, entwined by a serpent studded witii small di ai iwi i id s â-  thalisadef a Saint moholas was the most ]pnriBlar of the saints in the Midtfe Ages. No other whose name is in the oalendar wai applied tobyioore people, or by those who were more nnlike in oiiaraoter and circoastanoes. He was made tiie patroo (A tlie common people, of laborers, of jpnsoners, of slaves, of tiraveUers, saOors, batdiers, robliers, clerks, scholars, and in a very special manner of good gb-ls and of bovs. He has lieen made e patron saint of Russia moohrin the same way that St George is the pataron of England. Of tlM life of this saint nothing is known with oertalnty. The most trustworthy ao- oonnt says that he was a nativo of Patara in LyciK. As to the time of his turth it is less omifident. The supposed date is in the third century of our era, and his life poaribly extended into the fourth oeo- tnry. He is mentiimed most frrqnently as having lived under the reign of Constantino the Great. Nicholas was Bishop of Myra in Lyoia. About six hundred years after his death his lKdy was removed from that place to Bsoi, on the Southeastern ooast of Italy. He had sJready become famous at the time of this removal, and Us^ reputation for performing miracles continued to- grow rapidly. As a specimen of what was reported to his credit. Sir Richard Torkington, who made a pilgrimage to the Holy L%nd in 1517, tells e following: W» passed the Isle of Seynt Niohotaa, where be tooles made of Iron that never lose their edgge bymy- racle of Seynt Nicholas; as they sayâ€" I saw itnrtt." The day which, in the calendar, is de- dicated to Saint Nii^olas is the 6th of Decemler. It is surprising to find the ob- servance of that day postponed to the Christ mas holidays. When the change took place, and how it was broupht about, would not be easy to discover at this day. That this observance and our present usage of making presents at Chriatmsa are one and the same practice will be seen from the following account of the custom given by an early English writer "From a very early day it has l«en customary, on the eve of St. Nicholas's Diy, for children to put their stockings, shoes, or slippers in tbe bedrooms of those from whom they expect or desire favors, when, sure enough, next mornine their little feet-pieces are replete with sweetmeats, toys, or coins." The manner of observing St. Nicholan's Eve is described by a poei of two or three hundred years ago at considerable length. Room can be found here for only a few lines " Children on the eve do cause to fast And when they every one at night in sense- less leep are ess ;, Both apples, nuts and pears they bring, and other things beside. As caps, and shoes, and petticoats, which eecretiy they hide. And in the morning found, they say, that this S^. Nicholas brought." This shows that at that time in England presents were made on the eye of^the 6th of December instead of at Christmas, as now. In the Greek Church and in the north of Europe, however, schoolboys still invoke the liberality of St. Nicholas or Santa Glaus, as he is now commonly called, on thatnicht. How St. Nicholas could become patron to characters so unlike as robbers and good boys is a matter now difficult to understand. There is a ballad relating to hia patronage of boys which is one of the most popular ever written. Its story is as painful as that of the " Babes in the Wood." Strange it is that themes most harrowing are most popniaar. As to this saint's patronage of robbers, we only'i^w that such was the relation. High- waymen were called St. Nicholas's clrks. Rowley says, " I think yonder come pranc- ing down we hills, from Kingston a couple of St. Ificholas's olerks's." Max O'Bell on America. When that eccentric and imaginative Frenchman who is known to the reading public as Max O'Rell gave to the world his amusing skit upon English men and women enti. led "John Bull and his Island," our American oousins found hialxwk extremely entertaining and applauded his keen faculty for analysis and his discrimination as a critic. When subsequently he visited Am- erica and, with the traditional politeness of Us nation, said all sorts of sugary things about Americans and their institutions, no one in the United States questioned his sagacity. But, alas, since his return to Europe, he has been lecturing in London on the United States, smd it is no sr discovered that he is a very unsafe guide to follow, and that his exaggerations are so extravagant as to take away all valua from hia criticism. He declared that no man with any self- respect baa anything to do with politics in the United States, and that if a' senator ac- cidentally gains admittance to a select enter- tainment the custom of the master of the house is to order that the silver as well as the hats and coats in the hall i^e carefully watehed. In referring to the national pre- dilection for profanity he i ells of an Amoncan poker party on an English steamer of which each member laid down each ourd with a new and distinct oath. The ssme poker party a short time afterwards sang hymns and psidins for two hours. Max O'Rell declares that he has met men in other countries who swore and also, he is glad to say, whosang hymns, but America alone produces men wiio do both witii equal facility.

Some fifteen years ago a British war vesr sel, the Watervntcdi, was constmoted to be propelled by the force of water ejected from submerged tubes. She was a passable suc- cess, but not fast nor eoonomusal. A New York yacht dedgner seems to have applied the same principal in a different bnt much more effective way. Ha has constructed a yacht which may be said to have no machin- ery whatever. It is propelled by the direct reaction of an explosive mixture of air and gas ignited by electricity in heavy steel cylinders, the ends of which open under water. It is as though the yacht itself was a gieat cannon and the propelling power the recoil from the discharge of the cannon. The boat attains a fair spaed. The economy of the plan can be seen from the motive torce being produced directly from the fuel, with- out the loss from radiation, friction, slip and unused steam, that are estimated to use up 93 par cent, of the heat evolved in an ordinary ocean steamer. The gas is pro- duced in the same way aa the water gas we bum in Toronto, namely, by a jet rf steam and atomised oU passing over a fire. The electricity is furnished by a storage battery. "i Ezeontion by Electricity. The New York btate law which provides tliat after January lit next all executions for murder shall be performed by the agency of electricity is like to bring about a diffi- cnUy which was not contemplated when tbe legislation was passed. It was taken for granted that tbe new mode of death would be painless, and that there would be no ghastly preparations to add to the agony'of the criminal. The Legislature forgot to specify in what maimer the death-dealing shock should be applied, and it became necessary to refer the matter to a commit- tee of electromedical experts to suggest a mode of operation. The recommendation made by this committee involves a number of mysterious preliminaries which will, in many cases, inflict agony worse than death itself. The criminal is to be strapped down upon a table or to a chair, then a metal helmentisto beplaoadon his he»d, and metal points are to be put in contact with various parts of his body, while warm water is to be applied to his hair and head. So pro- traoted and comtdicated amethod of prepar- ing the oriminid has aroused much discus- sion, and exciting Mrong opposition to the change in the law. Unless some more simple means of electric application can be devised, it is donbtfti whether the new law will be carried ent. Putting Down Bribery. -~ ' It is satisfactory to find RepubUcans and Democrats uniting in a demand for stringent laws against bribery at Presidential elec- tions. Of course such laws must be passed by the State Legislatures. A Repwlican paper of Sb. Louis says that thore were l»e- tween fourteen and twenty thousand "float- ers" â€" we in Canada call them loose fishâ€" in Indiana alone, every one of them seeking money. It was a ten dollar apiece campaign in that State, and many got twenty dollars for their votes. The plans for raising funds in precincts varied aooordhug to the local bosses. In one plaoe the chairman called together seoretiy the hidf-dozen men who would in all probability be applicants for the post office. In the event of the party's suc- cess. He proposed to them an arrange- ment which was carried out in this way Each of tbe six put np $50, making a fund of $300 for that town. Next they drew lots to see who should have the pest- office. Then the. lucky man gave each of the five his note for $50, payable after ha re • ceived the appointment as postmaster. All present pledged themselves to abide by the agreement, and in this way that particular prednct was provided for.
