Leading Republicans attribute their
defeat In Texas to bad roads. Hav-
ing only four days In which to trans
port their voters from one precinct to
another, they were unable to vote
often enough TO win. If the election
had lasted another week, they would
have shown different result; but
four days was too short, especially as
military transportation is notoriously
slow.

A MOUNTAIN BELL.

The Messrs. Meneely, of West Troy,
n. I. lately received an order for sixteen
slabs of bell-metal. to weigh one hundred
pounds each, and the purposes for which
they are intended are sufficiently novel to
note. On one of the peaks of the Andes
Mountains, in South America, a church
has recently been erected by the Monks,
the material for its construction having
been carried thither on the backs Of mules.
by long, circuitous, and dangerous bridle-
paths. After completing the church, it
was determined to add to its attractions by
placing bell weighing 10000 pounds in
the turret. To transport an article of that
weight to the dizzy height would be SIM
ply impossible, but where there is q will
there is way" and the Monks determined
to construct a furnace near the church.
with sufficient capacity to melt the metal,
and cast the bell from the slabs above re-
ferred to. 1t is the intention of the Monks
to transport the slabs up the mountain-sidc
by packing" one hundred pounds on the
back of each mule engaged in the danger
Gus undertaking. If it be pleasure to
listen to the sound of the "church- going
bell" we should say that the Monks are
in pursuit of the contemplated happiness
under exceedingly great difficulties. zroy

HUNTING DOWN A MILLIONAIRE.

The following story is told by The San
Francisco Chronicle of Meiges, the great
railway prince of Peru, who ran away in
debt from San Francisco, some years ago !:
Mrs. Josslyn is washerwoman, and
works very hard fo- her living. In the
palmy days of Harry Meiggs she deposit
ed with him no less an amount than $2,-
500, and when Meiggs and her money
were gone, the time in which a woman
couldla up so large sum from the profits
of her business was gone ALSO But she
washed on. and kept her head above
water. Some two or three months ago
she read in The Overland Monthly, or
some other publication, of how much
money her old banker had made in South
America by building railroads, and with
beautiful faith in human nature, which
cannot be too highly commended, she en-
barked upon the Panama steamer and
wended her way to the sultry South, where
Meiggs now holds sway She sought the
millionaire in the gorgeous residence SO
graphically described in The Overland,
and presented her bank book and told her
tale. Meiggs listened, and when she had
finished he handed her check for the
amount of the deposit and interest from
its date to the time of payment. She de-
parted wealthier and happier woman.
and returnd to San Francisco, where she
arrived by the last steamer.

unsucessful Search for Hidden Treasure.

The Panama Her Id says = Among
the vessels in the harbor at present is a
schooner, called the Francis L. Steele.
She is lately from the Cocos Island IN
search of the pirates treasure supposed
TO be hidden there. The party on board
are all believers in spiritualism, the
chief of whom is Mrs Brown, wld-
ow. The mission Of Mrs Brown had a
NOUS mouve; firmly believing in the
doctrine aud efficacy Of spiritualism,
she cherished the idea that if by their
aid she could obtain this this ill-gotten
nirates' treasure, she would do ser
vice to the world and the souls OF the
pirates, by devoting portion OF their
money to missionary purposes. The
expedition has not been whit more
successful than the many other eXpedi-
tions which have gone on similar err
rand with divinlng rods and other
worldly indications and motives.

ALUCKLESs SoMNAABULIST.-Betwee and
O'Clock yesterday morning Mr.. Lorentz, the
proprietor of the saloon at No. 133 Meeting
street, just above Market, was awakened in
his apartment in the third story of the build
ing by groans and feeble cries for aid. After
hunting in other quarters he found Mr.. VIM.
White on the stairway badly wounded and
bleeding profusely from the mouth. A physi-
clan was Immediately sent for, but, before he
arrived, Mr.. Lorentz, who was afraid that the
man would die, got the city wagon from the
Guardhouse and sent the wounded man to
the City Hospital.
The sufferer had been allowed by the pro-
prietor to sleep, in the billiard saloon on the
second story of the building the night before,
his couch consisting Of a sofa and some chairs
at the back ofthe room, Mr.. White says the
first thing he knew after going to sleep was
that he found himself on the bricks In the
back yard underneath the window near
which he had gone to sleep. He was 30 badly
hurt as to be unable to walk, but after
some time he managed to crawl up the
stairs, suffering terribly the whole way, to Mr..
Lorentz's room on the third story. He slept
alone in the billiard-room, and, as he dis
claims all intention of sulciding, there is no
doubt that he started to walk in his sleep and
stepped out of the open window near by. He
fell apparently upon his face and left side, as
his under lip was split open and his left wrist
broken by the shock. Oae of his legs was
dislocated and the other bad,gy bruised. His
wounds were promptly dressed at the City
Hospital, and under the kind treatment he is
dl ing well.

"YOUR MONEY OR Your LIFE l"-Yesterday
afternoon an affray took place between two
white men, named Plath and Wingman, in
Rottenboro', which came near proving fatal to
the former. 1t seems that Plalh owed Wing
man some money, and the latter wanting to
get 1t, took gun in the afternoon, and meet
ing Plath on The street, presented his tusee
and told him to settle. Plath, expecting to be
shot. rushed at his antagonist, and catching
hold of the gun, struck him several blows. The
crowd which had collected now interfered, and
the police coming up arrested the pair. Wing
man appeared to be intoxicated, and 1t was
found necessary to bring him to the Guard
house in wagon. AT an examination here
Plath was discharged, and the other held for
trial before the Mayor this morning.
