THE RURAL MEW-YOBKOL 
PERSONALS. 
Hon. Alexander McKenzie, formerly Cana¬ 
dian Premier, lies seriously ill at Markham 
Village, Ont., from at attack of acute peri¬ 
tonitis. 
“ Hochwoblgeboreu” Baroness von Thugen, 
who po-sesses large esates in Unterfranken, 
has this notice posted in her park and grounds: 
“ Dogs, Jews, and Jewesses are not allowed 
to trespass. Fine, one mark.” 
Arahi Bey the Egyptian War Minister, who 
s setting the world by the ears just now, 
was just before his accession to power a petty 
employ^ in the Cattani firm, where his du¬ 
ties consisted in superintending the fodder 
supplies with which that firm was intrusted. 
This is by no means the first time since the 
days of Joseph the Hebrew when a man has 
sprung to power iu the valley of the Nile. The 
ounder of the Khedive’s family was himself 
but an Albanian peasant, so Arabi Bey s rise 
is not a thing to be laughed over by quid¬ 
nuncs, but very much the reverse. 
Ou the 20th of the present month Queen 
Victoria will have reigoed just 45 years. The 
reigns of on ly three other Englisn sovereigns 
have exceeded hers in length. They are that 
of Henry III., which lasted 56 years; that 
of E iward III, which numbered 50, and 
that of George 111, which was the longest of 
all—50 years. Victoria in age has been sur¬ 
passed by ll sovereigns since the Norman con¬ 
quest. Tney are Henry I, who lived to be 
67 years; Henry IN, who died at 65; Edward 
I, 67; Edward IN, 05; Elizabeth, 09; James 
II. O'i; George I, 67; George II, 77; George HI, 
82, George IV, 68, and William IV, 72. 
The criminal news of a single week makes a 
sad showing of t>o>isb depravity. A boy of 
Bellville, III., killed the girl who rejected bis 
addresses on account of bis dissipation. Two 
Arkausos boys quarrelled over a rabbit hunt, 
and one slew the other with an axe. A St. 
Louis boy stabbed the playmate who teased 
him for his ignorance of English. A West 
Virginia b iy shot his rival in a girl’s affec¬ 
tions. A Virginia boy confesses the poisoning 
of two persous. A Texas boy shot a little 
girl because she refused to put dowu a pail 
when he ordered her to. A Kansas boy is on 
trial for intentionally' drowning a playfellow. 
Two Wisconsin boys maltreated a child nearly 
to death. Tnreo boys pleaded guilly to high¬ 
way' robbery iu Caicago. An Iowa boy is 
a forger. A Missouri boy' set fire to a bouse. 
A New Mexico boy shot a baby. A Colorado 
horse thief is aged eight years, and none of 
the other criminals mentioned was over six¬ 
teen. Tuese are only' a few specimen cases. 
-♦-*--•- 
“ A coward can be a hero at a distance; 
presence of danger tests presence of mind.” 
Preseuce of disease tests the value of a cura¬ 
tive. Kidney-Wort challenges this test al¬ 
ways and everywhere, so far as all complaints 
of the bowels, liver aad kidneys are con¬ 
cerned. It cures all, nor asks any odds.— Ado.
