BABES IN THE wooDs.-A correspondent OF the
Portsmouth IN. H.. Times saysst the town u
Atkinson was thrown into excitement on Monday
afternoon by the announcement that two little
children OF Rufus Morse, aged three and four and
one-half years, were missing since early that morn
ing, and though dozens OF people had searched for
them several hours, no trace could be found OF
the mistng babes. Before dark nearly all the in
habltants OF Atkinson were engaged In the search,
young and old, rich and poor, all turned out. Tho
moon set that evening about eight O'Clock, but
until about eleven the search was continued, bus
fruitless. The parents were nearly distracted,
but all efforts made failed to bring the slightest
clue to the lost ones. When nearly all had given
up and no hopes were entertained OF their being
found that night Hampstead man, named IRIS
tam Little. plunged into swamp about one and
half miles from the home OF Morse, and there, in
about foot OF mud and water found the little ones
exhausted and almost dead. The three year old was
about half immersed In the water, and was sleeping
with It's head resting on log. How they came there
they TELL except that the four year old says
he kept going and thought he saw light which he
tried TO reach. Wet cold aud hungry, these babes
In the woods must have slept tho sleep OF death had
the search been given over until the following day.

The rolls OF the regiment were not In good order

sure Of the number OF men in their commands. The
drum corps, which is not counted In the above re-
fused to do duty under the drum major and General
Liebenau directed the colone Ito have them placed
under arrest. IL was understood ON the ground that
they will be court martaled. The members OF the
National Guard ana citizens who feel an interest in
the efficiency OF our local army will hope that the
mutneers will be publicly drummed out Of the state
service. 1t Is understood that several OF the cap
fains OF companies who encouraged the nsubordi-
nation will be brought to court martial. 1t GER
tainly should be done. These men should be made
to understand that while they wear the uniform

orders OF their superior officers. II discipline cannot
be enforced II would be better to disband the regi-
ment forthwith.

NATURAL PHENOMENA IN CALrPoRNTA.-An anus
Ing instance OF the absurdity of jumping at conclu-

IL seems that the late earthquake which shook up
the inhabitants OF that region happened to come
along just as the smoke or fog which has been at
tracing attention throughout the State settling
down over Alpine. The local papers attribute the
dalton that Indians whose word, by the way would

In the political world we are getting deeper in the

than the government Is WORTH and, secondly, the
soldiers refused to go unless Correos0 went with
them, in which case he would have to turn the
Presidency over to some else. This he is rather
afraid to do, knowing how frail humanity is. At

with their own prosperity they cheerfuly supported

In short debate the other day on the aboriginals
possibly the most amusing incident that has trans
PRED during the deadlock was brought to light. 1t
seems that the stoppage OF supplies had at
one time the effect OF depriving the black fel-
lows OF their customary government allowance
Of tobacco. After powwow the nggers hit on
very ingenious plan for securing their rights. They
resolved that II there was to be more ''baccy''
there should also be no halelujah meaning, OF
course, that they would give up their Christian OBJ
servances The missionaries at once interfered and
succeeded in inducing the government to make
special exception in this particular case. Such
the results Of missionary efforts among the Austria
Ian abOrigines.
The Improvement in trade produced by the ter
mnation OF the deadlock has been but temporary
and evanescent. Business OF oil kinds has relapsed
into its former state OF depression, and the mer-
chants still sadly bewail the duness. The eXpendi-
for the present year by the government Is esti

according to one estimate exceed f2, 275, 000 de-
