BRIEF NEWS PARAGRAPHS 
A most exasperating case of parental cruelty 
was brought to light last week In Savannah, Ga. 
W. G. York, a restaurant keeper, kept his little 
son, ten years old, chained for three months In 
a room of his house. Can-led before the Mayor, 
York made the excuse that his son was addicted 
to stealing, and that he chained him to restrain 
him from that vico. The Mayor, on visiting the 
room, found the child entirely naked, In a most 
filthy apartment, and fastened by a chain only 
threo or four feet in length, and secured to the 
iron leg of a sewing-machine, which was 
screwed to the floo i\ 
As an up passenger train over the Grand 
Trunk Railroad was passing the West Milan, 
(N. H.) station, on Saturday night, Juno 23d, a 
young lady named Jeannette Cnrkund, about 
eighteen years of ago, came out of her father's 
house, which stands Otosd by the track, stepped 
In front of the engine, was run over and in¬ 
stantly killed, tho wheels of the locomotive 
cutting her body entirely In two. No cause is 
assigned for the act, which seems to have boon 
. deliberate suicide. 
The fortunes of Washington and Lee Univer¬ 
sity are rising. Kentucky has given $3.5,000 for 
tho endowment of a chair or History and Polit¬ 
ical Economy; Missouri has subscribed nearly 
$50,(XX) fol-a chair of Applied Chemistry; Louis- 
iana, $27,000 for the chair of Modern Languages, 
and Texas $35,000 for one of Applied Mathemat¬ 
ics. Each Professorship wears the name of tho 
State endowing It. Last year in bequests and 
donations the University received very near 
$ 100 , 000 . 
Tue President has tendered to the Assistant 
Commissioner of Patents, John M. Thatcher, 
the appointment of Commissioner from the 
United States to tho International Patent Con¬ 
gress, which will bo hold In Vienna noxt Aug., 
with the object, mainly, of considering the pro¬ 
priety of adopting an international system of 
patent laws, Tho appointment has been accept¬ 
ed, and Judge Thatcher will sail for Europe on 
the 5th of July. 
Miss M. E. Lewis of Springfield, 111., has been 
invited by various prominent citizens of San¬ 
gamon County to become n candidate, without 
distinction of party, for the office of County 
Superintendent of Schools. Long and praise¬ 
worthy experience as a teacher has fitted her 
well for this position. Her short, practical, and 
modest letter of acceptance Is much In her 
favor. 
A dispatch from Topeka, Kansas, nays that 
the reports in circulation asserting that the case 
of ox-Senator Pomeroy was presented to the 
Grand Jury and a bill of indictment, ignored, 
are entirely untrue. The case was never pre" 
sented to the Grand Jury, but will bo prose- 
outed by information and not by Indictment. 
The rules and regulations of the Boston 
schools have received an addition, in the shape 
of this amendment:—That u In no case shall 
corporal punishment be Inflicted on any Bcholar 
for any offense, until at least, 34 hours after the 
offense Is committed for which such punish¬ 
ment is inflicted." 
A committee, led by the Governor of Penn¬ 
sylvania, will visit Pittsburgh In July to there 
consider tho organization of the proposed Me¬ 
chanics’ High School. 
Schuyler Colfax has been decorated with 
the degree of LL. D. by Otterbein University,

The Premium Machine 
Visitors ut tho 
Northern Ohio Fair, last autumn, will remember 
the long, arduous struggle between the eight or 
ten leading Sewing Machines on exhibition 
there for supremacy in family sewing. The 
samples exhibited were valued at thousands of 
dollars, and, taken together, made up a display 
which was alone worth a trip to the fair to see. 
After full consideration tho committee unani¬ 
mously awnrdedtho first premium to the Wilson 
Improved Machine, which was pronounced 
superior to all others in family work. We refer 
to this grand triumph to remind the ladies that 
this same Wilson Machine la the cheapest first 
class machine ever offered, coating *15 less than 
any other machine of Its high rank. It is dllli- 
cult to understand why the people of this sec¬ 
tion should purchase or use any other machine.
