A TANDEM ACCIDENT.-On Friday

a little mixed, at the crossing on the cor.
ners, by the carriage running against the
wheel horse. and although they were ex.
pertIy handled, and as well managed az a
tandem hitch-up could be under the cir
cumstances, the "hind-horse" insisted
upon getting back into the wagon, heels
first. After very dexterOusly refining the
horses past the sharp turn that they
naturally wanted to take to get 70 their
stable, and avoiding a whiIl over against
corner posts and on TO a marble sidewalk,
the ladies began looking for their own
safety. Coming from North street, Katy
kept the team straight ahead up South
street, and when they got near the turn
at the stone shop, Miss Pierce, to avoid
the kicking horse, sprang from the car
riage, and a little further on, Katy left.
Miss Pierce was Jared, but not seriously

"Mother she cried ''whose step is there!

''I dreamed that saw him rise out of the sea,
And he whispered, 80 Maude r' and beckoned

"And reached out my hands, but they grasped
the thin air;
But it must be his step that heard on the stair.

AN ERoNAUTs EXPERIENCE Mr.
Eben Seaver, Econaut, of Boston, made
his eighteenth ascension in his balloon
STAR" from the State House yard Mont
pelier, on the 4th ult., making a zig gag
trip of about 70 miles in an hour and
twenty minutes, alightiug in Irashurgh,
in the bayfield, of A. A. Webster, within
twenty feet of the hay cart, striking six
times before his grapple held, the last time
dislocating his shoulder and bruising him
more or less in all parts of the body-his
right arm very badly. Mr.. Webster
went to his assistance and found the bas-
ket bottom upwards, the balloon upon the
basket. and Mr.. Seaver under the whole.
He was taken to the house and Drs. Ad-
gate and Kimball sent for, who admins
tered chloroform and fixed his arm and
shoulders and he was made as comfort
able as circumstances would allow. The
accident would not have occurred but for
the strong gale of wind and an insntfici-
ent quantity of gas, the gas works OF
Montpelier not being able to give so
much as he would wish. He was obliged
to throw out all his ballast in order to
clear the top of the State House, and had
no alternative but to go aud stop when
and where the wind said. Mr.. Seaver
did not consider it safe to start with so
little gas, but concluded to do it rather
than disappoint the thousands Of people
who had gathered to witness the ascen-
sion. He stopped with Mr.. Webster I'M
til Friday last, when he went to his home

Journals. He was by birth Canadian,
and there is every reason to believe, from
his "reminiscences of the past and his
statements, supported by other evidence,
that he was one hundred and thirty-four
wears of age at the time of his death, on
Saturday Last. This man went 10 Pitts
burg in 1914 from Canada, when that
town was but a village. Thence he
went to New Orleans. in a keel-boat
about the time that General Jackson was
planning his defence Of New Orleans
from the British. Journals must have
been at that time eighty years old, and it
il said tn It he used TO speak with much
glee of how he was rejected from the mil
itary service in Jackson's army because
he was too old. He said that he was
working in field near the battle OF
Quebec. where Wolfe was killed, on Sep
TENDER IA, 1859, and from what be told
of his life previous to that event, he must
have been twenty one years of age. He
WAS with the exploring expedition OF
Lewis and Clark, 18037. The state
ments of this Dean of the oldest inhabit
ants seem more reliable and probable
when it is considered that he WAS an il.
literate man, who did not rely upon

IMPORTANT Discoveries OF IRoN.-
From Green Bay comes the report Of new
aud important discoveries Of immense de-
posts of iron ore in the mountain ranges
south of Marquette. as the result Of "
scientific survey of a portion of the upper
peninsula of Michigan, which has recent.
" been undertaken. The ridges of iron
out.crop from one to three hundred feet
above the average level of the country
and the supply of ore is unlimited, while
its yielding percentage is very high. The
outlet of this new iron region is at present
on Green Bay, though it will probably,
with the construction of projected rail
roads, be near Mackinao. 1t may be just
ly said that, so far, hardly more than sur
face-scratching has been done yet in this
country in the search for iron, and scarce
ly a day passes without the report of the
finding of new deposits in some State OF
other, north or south. Before long our
iron interests must assume magnificent
proportions, as every new discovery has a
tendency to its further development and
growth throughout the country.

A Captive for 40 Years.

Margaret Yalery arrived at Detroit last
week from the wilderness, and stated that,
together with her father and mother, she
was captured by body of Conan che In
dams on the plains, in june 1898. and
that subsequently h'r parents purchase
their liberty. and are at present residing
in st, Joseph, Mo. From this time up to
June, 1870, she remained a captive in the
hands of the savages, and was subjected
to excruciating fortunes and lnd1gnltles
Upon arriving at mature age, David
Ward, an Irisbman, who was also cap
tive. married her, first, however, being
compelled to 'run the gauntlet" in order
to claim her as his wife. Three children
were the result of this union. Ward, for
some offense, was burned at a stake, and
afterward a young Indian ''ran the gaunt-
LETT for her, and she was married to him
He, too, persisted by the hands OF his fell
low savages, not, however, until six chit
dren had been born. After his death va
rious indignities were proposed and re-
iected, and her nine children were killed
in her presence, and she was compelled
to eat of their fesh and dance in their
blood. Still refusing to acede to the pro-
positions of her captors, she was conslgn-
ed to death, and preparations were made
to burn her at the stake on the 14th of
June. 1870. On the night of the 18th,
however. she saws she effected her escape,
and after travelling 10 days she found
white friends, who cared for and assisted
her in securing her liberty. During her
journey she lived principally upon herbs,
and was compelled to remain three days
in hollow log to prevent recapture.
While occupying this place of safety, her
pursuers held a consultion in the neigh
borhood and decided to give up the chase.
She overheard all that was said, aud at
nightfsll she quilted the log and locality
and continued on her jourpey.-Detroit

OvrRTAxING THE MIND or THE
YoUNG.-The case of young Pryor,
who was found dead in the East
River, at New York, few days ago,
contains a lesson that ambitious pa
rents may read to advantage
There is no doubt, from all the ac-
counts given Of the young man, that
he fell Il victim to oyerwork of his
mental powers. lie was, from his
childhood, remarkably precocious.-
He was pushed forward and gradu
atcd at a very early age from
Princeton with honors never before
won by a student, especially in those
branches that require extraordinary
and close application Of the mind
mathematics and metaphysics. He
was then hurried to Cambridge,
England, where he won almost equal
houors, and on his return, wcaried
by this long and exciting process of
mental training, he put into law
yer's office to master the mysteries
of Coke and Blackstone, The result
was soon doveloped-an overtaXed
brain gave way, and in his dclirium
he plunged into the dock and ended
his career.
1t will do to apply the spur to lazy
or stupid boys, but too fond parents
make great mistake when they ex-
ert themselves to make the natural
ly smart and diligent still more am
bilious and industrious. -Sdrmnah

SENSE AND SENTIMENT.

Practice without knowledge is
blind and knowledge without practice
is lame.
Persons should always dress TO
suit their figure, A hump backed
lady. for instance, ought to wear "
camel's-hai shawl.
A terse writer says that Nature
likes TO let the best of us find out,
from time to time, that, after all, we
do not know much,
Grief knits two hearts in closer
bonds than happiness ever can; and
common suffering is a far stronger
link than common joy.
Four things are previously empty;
A head without brains, wit without
judgment, heart without honesty,
and purse without money.
Happiness and pride are absolute
Iy incompatible. Continual ycxa-
tons, lancied sights, and injuries,
provoke and wound the self-suffic-
lent mind.
Conscience is sleeping giant /;
we may lull him into longer or
shorter slumber but his starts are
frightful, and terrible is the hour
when he awakes.
The heart of man is a well Of Sc
crets from which we bring up but
one buckct-fuII at a time; and
truth-that is, the whole truth--lies
still at the bottom.
The use of fasting as religious
observance probably lies in this
that it gives one a realizing sense of
the emptiness of things below"
"A Boston girl fell dead while sit
ting up with her young man the other
night" Don't "set up" with young
men the "other night" Every other
night is often enough.
A contempt and disregard of the
sacred rite of marriage not only en-
dangers the morality Of the individ-
ual, but strikes at the very founda-
ton of social order and domestic
happiness.
That man only is truly brave, who
fears nothing so much as committing
mean action, and undauntedly
fulGIs his duty, whatever be the
dangers which impede his way.
