There is an old theory that if John Smith owns in fee simple a farm, or a city lot of certain superficial dimensions, he also owns the soil and rock beneath in a direct line be- low all and every part of it, though dimin- ishing to a point downw: to the exact centre of the earth. If there are voids or wacant spaces within these subterranean bounds he owns these also. And he also owns the open space above his lot, upward to the very heavens, so that no man, king or “Ange — undermine or overshadow him, ave his own pro rmission, fed and given. Not less exten- inalienable gre the rights of cor- porations, so that the city which —_ its streets is also possessed of like pro- pert in the depths beneath and in the ms ts above. This much premised, it is to be observed that in many modern cities sundry owners of lots, buildings and proper- ties fronting on the streets, have made, or cause made, excavations beneath the streets or sidewalks, for the purpose o lighting or storage or other uses. Just now there is much interest in these under-street excavations in the city of Chicago. The tady Hamilten. A most elaborate puulication is about to be made of the life and letters of Emma, Lady Hamilton, the frail —oe Lord Nelson, on the eve of the tle of ‘Lrafal- gar, left as a legacy “‘ to his king and to his country,” with the entreaty that they should give her an ample provision to maintain her rank in life. His dying re- quest remained unheeded. Honors and re- war's were showered upon his family, with whom throughout his life he had lived on terms that were the reverse of cordial. An earldom was conferred upon his brother, with a revenue of $20,000 year ; $50,000 was voted to each of his sisters, and $500,000 was assigned by the Government for the purchase of an estate to remain forever in the family. Lady Hamilton and her daugh- ter, Horiatia, w at was the child of Nelson, were ignored an over. Twenty ears after the battle of Trafalgar an un- nown woman, still preserving the remains of extraordinary beauty, died at Calais, where, for several years, with reduced means, she had sought aa Deng asylum. reg her decease the Is lord discovered er papers that bie we who was ated by the public ee in @ pau ve was no other than Lady Hemiften, who had been in succession a servant girl, a famousactress, the wife of an ambassador, the favorite friend and companion of the Queen of Naples, and the adored amie of England's most famous admiral. A Good Word for the Stenogaphers.= In the District Court yesterday Judge Troup, in passing upon the question of the reasonableness of the stenographer’s charge for services rendered in taking down and transcribing the evidence in a matter before a referee, took occasion to say that in his judgment $6 a day and ten cents a hundred words for transcription was not unreason- able. The court further observed that it uired more time and (inferentially) brains to become a skilled stenographer than to ac- quire equal proficiency in the law ; that probably nine-tenths of the lawyers, ‘if not a larger proportion, never could excel as court t stenographers ; that out of the several hundred persons who have studied steno- graphy in this city, not to exceed half a dozen could ever attain to the dignity of a court reporter. The court expressed itself in a manner to leave no doubt of its appreci- ation of the skilled laborer in the steno- graphic field and places him (properly) among the higher professions. From the county clerk it is ascertained that in this county during the past two years the| fees paid into the county treasury by the district clerk on account of the th dollar tax in each case exceeds by $700 the amount drawn out for the same period of time by the official stenographer—an excellent show- ing for the county.— Winfield, Kas., Courier. Indiana Friends and Prohibitien.

Alcohol and the Brain. Dr. Norman Kerr, at the late annual meeting of the British Women’s Temper- ance Home, held in London, gave an address upon inebriety among women, in which he said: ‘‘ The reason I have — 80 strongly on the physical part of the tion is that, in making observations on lead ies, I have constantly found in the skulls of those who drank certain condinions. Now, the brain isa set of thinking cells, set in a tough frame-work or tissue. All goes well as long as these two kinds of tissue —the outward envelope and the inward contents—are in proper proportion to each other and to the size of the skull. Alcohol, however, has the effect of thickening the binding and connecting tissues, thereby diminishing the space allotted to the think- ing cells, so that they shrink and become unable to do their work. Thus, if you come from a port-wine, or champagne, or still worse, a beer-drinking ancestry, you do not the conditions of brain which God intended you to have; and the result can not be modified at once, thongh in course of time it may be done. Ido not care in wha} shape spirit is used, the effect is the same.” How to Shave Easily. The moment you get out of bed is the best time.

Bat if your razor is cold close it and place it in your pocket or under your arm till it gets warm.
