and before the train could be stopped the loco
motive struck the wagon and made hash of it,
at the same time throwing out both Mr.. and
Mrs. Pulen. Luckily they were not injured,
neither was the horse.

The GALAXY for May will be sought after
with unusual interest on account OF Dom
Piatt's first essay as editor Of the new humor-
GUS department. called the "Galaxy Club
Room" That gentleman puts in formal dis
claimer, to begin with, of the authorship of all
that appears He is sort of godfather, that's
all. But the Introductory essay in which he
makes this disclaimer, telling the appropriate
story OF the Montana members constituent
who eat qusils, is the funniest thing in the
present number. "This singular creature,
says the editor, "lived at boarding house on
bull neck beef from Immediately back of the
horns that was wasted for dinner, and then
served to the bsnighted boarders in the morn
ing securely hashed." Dom Piatts gamey
boxing portrait aderns the fest page of this
number. Next in interest is the first of Sc
ries of papers by A. H.. Guernsey on the
Campaigns of Gen. Lee. The writer takes
the ground that Lee committed every blundsr
possible for soldier to commit and that the
whole series of his successes from the seven
days fight before Richmond to Chance lors-
vile was due only to McClellan's superior stu
pidity and moral cowardice. "A Night in the
