A Clergyman Killed Going to Fune-
Pal-The Corps Returns to Life.

The Lacrosse Republican has correspon-
dent who was recently visiting at West Bend
wis., when he learned the following facts,
which are substantiated by Hon. F. o. thorpe,
who resides at West Bend
Con Saturday, the Sd instant, at West Bend,
the Rev. Mr.. Miller was called to go into tho
country few miles from town, to preach the
funeral sermon of Mrs. Lambert. She was
arrayed in her funeral attire and placed in her
coffin. 1t appears that Mr.. Miller was the
owner of fractions horse, that was sometimes
unmanageable, and would run away. He was
to pass through a timbered country, and on
account of snow drifts the roads was almost
impossible, and from this fact the horse sue
ceeded in throwing the minister from the cut
ter
From appearances, Mr.. NJ was thrown with
great force upon an oak stump that was filled
with short knots One of these knots came
in contact with and severed the iugular veign
When he was found, life was almost extinct
from the loss of blood. He was taken to the
nearest house and medical aid at once pro
cured, but he only lived short time The
cutter was found some distance from where
the accident occurred, and the horse detached
from it. But the most singular development
OF this sad and mysterious affair is yet to be
told: Further information proves that Mrs.
Lambert was not dead, but had been in a
trance for two days, presenting every indica-
ton that life had departed She states that
she could hear every word spoken, and could
realize the preparations her friends were max
ing for her funeral, but could make no resis-
lance or move muscle of her body. Her
grave had been dug. She now lives, and the
minister who had been called to preach her
funeral sermon now lies buried in the same
grave made to receive her last remains

Yes, my dear Punch, it is the truth, but
not all the truth. No woman, take my word
for it, is satisfied with one look. At least |

telling you, invariably take four, four good
ones. The first look in the glass is for my
self, that's fair the second look is for my hus-
band, that's nothing but just; the third is for
my friends, that's only generous; and the last
is for my rivals, that's human nature. If the
last look satisfies me, then I know it is all
right, and assure you l never take any
more !"-LonQon Payach
