As 1T is expected that the ladies will So

AS 1T is expected that the ladies will soon be
practcing the yelocipede, we copy the fol-
lowing description of the dress for relocipede'
triennes from the Ielocipedists:
Let the outer dress skirt be made so as to but
ton its entire length in front-the back part
should be made to button from the bottom to a
point about three-eighths of yard up the skirt.
This arrangement does not detract at all from
the appearance of an ordinary walking costume.
When the wearer wishes to prepare for drive,
she simply loosens two or three of the lower but
tons at the frort and back, and bringing to-
gether the two ends Of each side, separately, but
tons them in this way around each ankle, and
when mounted, the dress falls gracefully at each
side of the front wheel. club of six young
ladies have taken this veloce and costume under
their special care, and declare if it is not suffi-
ciently perfect they will soon make 1t so, and
as ,hev are bound to be prepared for the Park
the coming summer; they practice regular
every morning, and are even now good riders.

Our NELocPEDE.-Our people have
sensation. The velocipede arrived last Friday
evening since when it has been in constant use.
The question whether we had any velocipcdes-
trans among was speedily solved, and we
nounce the fact that have several, all of
whom, however are not6rst class. There being
no experts in the place competent TO instruct by
precept or example, the results so far attained
are due solely 10 native talent and perseverance.
As matter Of amusement it is a decided success,
the gvraiious of the machine with an uusklful
rider being really mirth-provoking 1t would
seem that veocipede riders are naturally divided
into two classes, namely, long g-legged and short
legged. The velocipede we have, although not
of the largest size, is still of such magnitude
that short legged individuals do not have fair
chance to display their dex,erity in its manage
ment, and we understand that it is proposed to
send for another machine for their benefit.
When it arrives may expect sharp rivalry
between the two classes and it would not be
surprising if velocipede racing became frequent
and popular.

SAD AccIDESr.-Early in the forenoon of last
Tuesday our community were shocked by the
announcement that Mr. Alexander Bennett had
fallen over the bank in his mining claim and
was not expected to live. The particulars of
this unfortunate occurance, as as can be
ascertained, are as follows: Tuesday morning.
about half past eight clock, Mr.. Bennett went
to turn the water over the bank at another place
from where it was then running. 1t is believed
footing and fell in the ditch. A large head Of
water was turned on at the time and it being
only fifteen or twenty feet from the bank he was
carried over, falling ABOUT fifty five feet upon the
earth and rocks below, fracturing his spine and
skull and inaicting other severe external and in
ternal I'M ures. The force of the current rolled
him along like log and he was on the point of
passing into the main ditch when he was spied
by one of his partners who sprang into the water
and dragged him out at great risk of getting
into the ditch, in which event he would himself
have been beyond help. Mr.. Bennett was imme-
diately carried home and physician summoned
but the shocking injuries he had received were
mortal and he expired at half past four o clock
that afternoon. The unfortunate man was con-
scous from the time he was found by his friends
and appeared to be in the full possession of his
senses, conversing down to the moment of his
death. Mr.. Bennett a worthy and indust-
rous citizen, and had been residing at this place
about seven years, coming here from Mineral
Point, Wisconsin. His wife had but recently
Joined him and his efforts to obtain competence
were just being crowned with success when the
heavy hand of death 30 suddenly laid upon
him. He was buried the following day, n large
number of our citizens attending at the funeral
ceremonies.
