A clergyman and one of the elderly
parishioners were walking home from
meeting one frosty day, when the old
gentleman slipped and fellqupon his
back. The minister, on being assured
that he was not hurt, said to him, ''My

The old gentleman looked up as if to
assure himself of the fact, and replied

We called at large importing house

mems under wear," and amazing were
our discoveries, We came suddenly
upon a large room, which we at first
mistook for a partere of tropical flow
ers in full bloom, but which, on exam-
ination proved to be the sample room
for mems neckties. Such patterns, such
styles, such colors, we had never I'M
agined to be possible in neckties-es-
pecially colors. There was one collec-
ton of such flaming, glowing, blazing
burning red, that we involuntarily
asked the proprietor if the insurance
companies didn't rate them as 'fextra
hazardous on account of fire." We
hardly felt safe, and longed for a fire
engine to come and play on those neck
ties, and put them out
The prices of some Of the specimens
of Hmen's under wear" which we saw
in that vast establishment ran up to a
frightful figure, especially those of the
wedding gear. We will set down a
list of some of the articles, at what we
were told were the usual retail prices

CHLoRoFoRM-THE THNo "LAD1Es''
GET TIGHT ,ON.-The extent to which
the habit. of the secret use of chloroform
prevails to-day among oil GLASSES Of
women, from the inmates of the shame
full haunts Of Greene street'to the, bellies
Of the Fifth Avenue, and the pupils of
fashionable boarding schools, is known
to few except the apothecaries who sup
: ply the deadly drug. For deadly it is;
and though it's poison is sometimes as
swift as the cobra's, it is 1T others, sloy
OF misery, but always sure and inevita-
BILE. We hear with terrible frequently of
sudden deaths from chIoroform, "taken
only to allay;a headache" but we do not
hear Of the wreck of the brain and the
ruin OF the nervous system, which its
habitual use surely brings about. The
swiftpess with which lit produces its
dreamy intokication, and the few appa-
rent traces which it leaves behind, make
it favorite with women who know moth
ing of its ungoyernable force, of its Gu
mulative effects, and of its terribly dan
gerous nature. Its use is far more de-
precated than that of alcohol or opium,
the effects of which can easily be fore
told. Chloroform, on the contrary, is
as subtle and sudden in its wayward ven
Seance as tne most treacherOus and dan
gerous of the women who use it. The
dose that was seemingly innocuous yes
terday, may; if repeated, bring swift and
resistless death to-day, and though the
penalty should be delayed, it is certain
to be inflicted sooner or later. When, q
yesr or two ago, writer charged Ameri-
can women with drunkenness, the charge
was easily repelled, for the delicate or
ganization of the yefned lady Instructive
~ and notoriously shuns the rude grasp
of alcohol. The charge that chloroform
is largely used by women is, however,
!amentably true. 1t is generally used in
Ignorance of its nature and ultimate
effects, but the sad and disgraceful fact
that it is habitually employed to an
alarming extent, as an aid to female
drunkenness, cannot be gainsaid.

MINING OPERATIONS CONDUCTED UNDER
ADVICE FROM THE SPIRITs.-Last Satur-
days Inland Empire states as follows;
The Munro Mutual Mining and Tunneltng
Company is New York institution, whose
members are all spiritualists. Several acres
of the fat near Eberhardt City comprises the
mining property of the concern. The opera
tons of the company are directed By Madam
Munro, a clairvOyant, who processes to tell
exactly where the pay grit is TO be found.
Capital stock of the institution l0,00J.000, of
which amount $685., 1888 335 has been set
apart as a working fund. J. L. Bigler is Su-
perintendent of the Company, and has been
vigorously working the claim some months
He has shaft down some 60 or 30 feet, and
Yesterday it was reported that he had struck
a fine body of good ore. Madam Munro is
consulted daily while in a clairvoyant state,
and her instructions immediately teiegraphed
to Superintendent Bigler. Of late, most of
the dispatches have read: "All right; go
on" Among the faithful the stock has re-
Gently gone up to $50 so; SO says Bigler.
The President of the Company, Mr.. Mel
son, is expected to arrive here to-day. Since
good ore Is found almost everywhere Id White
Pine, we should not be much surprised if the
Munro Mutual Mining and Tunneling Com
pany" struck it rich +: but this would not ma
terially strengthen our confidence in IN adm
Munro's" spiritual revelations, especially as
relating to mining.

WHITE PINE CLAIMs.-The White
Pine News gives US the following some
what curious statistics relative to the
recorded mining claims in that District:
Some few people, in the wide world,
have interests in White Pine; else are
they careless of the use of their names.
The number of records of claims in
this District, as gathered for The News,
is 1858. Of these, The claims com
mencing their names with IS are
largely ahead-l,l us. g. to which is
assigned the largest compartment in the
printers case, commences the names OF
but $50 of these claims. Next TO IS is
.M'-whicn is the initial for 976. The
business Of prospecting is not dull,
either; for, although the people in the
Recorders office keep close up with
their business, 81 claims had been re-
corded ahead of the index clerk when
we quit the exploration in the books.
