LOST IN THE SNow.-We have another sad
story to relate of that inexperienced class of
persons who injudiciousy persist in snow
travelling about these mountains, at the peril
of their lives. Last Sunday morning several
men left Nelson Point for Gobsonville or
Whisky Diggngs They reached Onion Val
ley about noon, and shortly after set out for
GObsonville, distance of less than five miles,
but over q very high ridge. After travelling
q considerable distance, one of the party, a
German, became convinced they were not
taking the proper direction, and left the
others, turning his course more to the north
The remaining four continued on their wan
dering way, when one named Charley, be-
coming faint and exhausted, requested the
rest should leave him, and if they had an
opportunity, to return to him with bread
Night approaching, the company started a fire
upon the snow, but not succeeding well, they
luckily made further search for more COM
fortahld quarters and were joyous success
ful in reaching the milk ranch near Grass
Valley. Search was made for their weary
comrade, but without success. Undoubtedly
death was his sleep that evening upon the
cold bed of snow. The next morning one of
the men, after receiving proper directions
started again for Gibsonvlle, and reached
there by evening, Several citizens turned
out to look for the individual who first sepa-
rated from the party leaving Onion Valley,
continuing a fruitless search throughout Mon
day night, Tuesday and Wednesday, when
they learned of his rescue. Mr.. Richard. of
Hopkins Creek, noticing his bewildered
tracks upon the snow, obtained posse of
four men from the Valley, who afterwards
found the poor hungry, freezing and fright
ened man, standing at the base Of Pilot Peak.
Mr. Richard, who obligingly furnished us
with the circumstances as above related, says
that liquor was abundantly used by the par.
ty. Bad whisky does not make good ''pock.

lightning Phenomena.

Mr.. Merriam, the "sage of Brooklyn
Heights in a recent letter, says: "A few
days since a stranger accosted me in the
street, and inquired if iron bedsteads were
dangerous to sleep upon during thunder
storms 7 said in reply that L had never
known d death by lightning on bed resting
on an iron bedstead, but we have recorded
deaths by lightning of persons reposiug on
feather beds on wooden bedsteads. No case
of death by lightning has yet occurred to a
telegraph operator, 20 persons on board OF
steamboats, or IN railroad cars, or in iron ves-
sels or in iron buildings, or in vessels fur
nished with lightning conductors, and but
four deaths in buildings furnished with light
ming rods Two persons have been killed BY
lightning by standing Oh the outside platform
of railroad cars. Many persons suffer great
ly from fear during thunder storms, and that
fear has, in two cases which have come to our
knowledge. produced death. 1t will be a
comfort to such to know the safety which
railroad cars, steamboats,, iron buildings and
iron vessels, and vessels and buildings fuF-
nisbed with rods afford during thunder storm.
Persons struck down by lightning should be
freely drenched with cold water. We have
the record of case of resuscitation after hours
of drenching; therefore, do not get discour-
aged. but continue drenching until animation
is restored. The season of the year for the
frequent occurrence of thunder storms Is a
hand and this notice may be the means Of
doing some good.'

Relics of Revolutionary Times.

There IS in old Connecticut work of art
of some merit, whose history is not without
interest. 1t is an image of the god Bacchus,
which was carved by three prisoners of war,
who were lodged in WIndham Jail in 1776,
and who afterwards made their escape, went
to New London, and crossed the Sound to
Long Island, which was then occupied by the
British army. The image, which was the
creation of the genius of these prisoners, was
presented to widow Cary, who kept public
house on Windham Green. now owned and
occupied by Mrs. Joseph Huntington, and
put up as sign in 1776. 1t was afterwards
removed to the old Fitch tavern, on the site
of the brick building occupied, until recently,
married widow Carey. 1t was afterwards
sold by the heirs of Mr. Fitch, to Lucius
Able, who kept the Stamford house in 1927,
on condition that it should be we'll cared for.
and was elevated on branch of the old elm,
where it remained until 1856, the stand hav-
ing changed hands many times during that
period until 1910, yet all the masters and
mlstresses took good care of the ancient wor-
thy. 1n 1910 it came into possession of Mr..
Haphna Curtis, who during his life complied
with all the conditions of his transfer. The
Wllllmantic journal SAYS: ''On the death
of Mr.. Curtis there seemed to be no one to
care for its welfare, and one day, getting tired
perhaps of its elevated position. and drowsy
wthal, fell to the ground. breaking its arm,
and otherwise injuring it. Mr.. Cummings,
our old Windham Express man, picked it up
and made purchase of it from the heirs Of
Mr.. Curtis, brought it to our skillful but
mute surgeon, Mr.. NJ. S. Bowdich, of Wilt
mantle. who set its arm aud put it in good
repair. Thence it was taken to the estab-
lishment of Messrs. Rice Brothers, where
their cunning artist, Mr. Charles Lille, has
clothed it in span dress, and although
more than three score years and ten had pas
sed since its creation, it appears as fresh and
young as ever" ."-BafaIo Express,

Mysteries of the American Lakes.
Lake Erie is only 80 feet deep. but the bot

the tide level of the ocean, OR as most parts
of the Gulf of st. Lawrence, and the bottoms
of Lake Huron. Michigan and Superior. al
though their surface is so much higher. arc
all from their vast depth, on E level with the
bottom of Lake Ontario. Now the dis
charge through the river Detroit, after allow
ing for the full probable portion carried eff
by evaporation, does not appear by any means
equal to the quantity of water which the three
great upper lakes receive, it has been copjec-
tnred that subterranean river may run from
Lake Superior to Huron and Lake Ontario.
This conjecture is by no means improbable,
and accounts for the fact that salmon and
herring are caught in all the lakes communi-
eating with the St. Lawrence, but in no 9TH
ers. As the falls of Niagara must have always
existed it would puzzle the natdralists to say
how these fish got into the upper lakes with
out some such subterranean river; moreover
any periodical obstruction of the river would
furnish not improl able solution Of the
mysterious fux and refux of the lakes.
Upon this tie editor Of the Scientific Amer
lean remarks: Are salmon and herring
found In the lakes and rivers above the Falls
of Niagara ? If so it affords strong grounds
for supposiDg there is a subterranean COM
mun;catiou between Ontario aud the upper
lakes if not, we can see no grounds for such
conclusions"
