New Fire EXtingniSher.

A new process of extinguishing fires
has been tested lately in Paris, at the
Champ de Mars, with most satisfactory
results. A wooden building, erected
for the purpose, and filed with shaw
ings ond other highly combustible ma.
terial, was fired. When the flames
were at their height they were almost
instantly extinguished. The apparatus,
which threw jets of water in which
certain resinous materials had been dis.
solved, is very simple. By means of
these materials the water is said to
penetrate instantly such bodies as it
meets with. Moreover the resinous
matter produces an intense smoke,
which extinguishes everything that is
burning

A Buffalo Story.

Buffalo Bill will weep when he reads
in Western paper of Daniel Otto, of
Osborne City, Kan, who, while chasing
a buffalo recently, wounded the ami
NAL with his pistol, when the Infatuated
brute turned upon him. Fight was i'm.
possible, so Mr.. Otto seized the long
hair on the shoulder of the buffalo and
mounted him. While seated on the
animals back he reloaded his pistol and
put the load right in the back part of
the right shoulder. This brought the
buffalo to his knees, and sent Otto
whirlIng about ten feet over his head
Gathering himselfup, he looked around,
and there sat the buffalo on his knees
gazing at him with no friendly look,
but one more load finished him.

/" Wrestling JOe.o

What has been known for many
years as " the great Oregon land case "
has at last been decided by jury in
favor of one Joseph Thomas, otherwise
known as Wrestling Joe,n a person
now almost one hundred years Of age.
1t appears from the testimony given on
the trial, that this Joe had married NJ ss
Elizabeth Caruthers in 1916, and that a
son was the only issue OF the union. A
separation having occurred, either be-
fore or after his birth, Mrs. Thomas
emigrated to Portland, Oregon, where
she resided until her death. The son
grew to be man, and engaged in land
schemes which enabled him to acquire
a handsome estate. At his death, being
without heirs, the authorities seized
every hing that belonged to him, and
were about to have a sale, when they
were stopped by a lawyer named Han
nah, who had succeeded in discovering
several of the kinsmen of the late Mr..
Thomas. Soon afterward, the old man,
" Wrestling joe" was found in con.
dition of AFFECT misery, and his title to
be the heir of his son was so satisfacto-
rily proved that he was surrounded by
Spectators and his claim purchased.
Recently, decision was given in favor
OF these persons, but as the property is
valued at upwards of a million dollars,
the original claimants continue the
fight, which will shortly be resumed in
the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, poor
old Joe has been provided with enough
money 10 enable him to live in luxury
for the remainder of his days. During
the progress of the testimony fact was
developed which tells very well for
Oregon The estate now valued at a
million was only worth forty thousand
dollars in 1860.

Matches.

Although friction matches are as
common as nails, very small proper
ton of those who use them understand
the principle on which they operate.
1t is, in fact, a very simple affair. The
tip of the match is combination of
sulphur and phosphorus. The phos-
phorus ignites at the heat of one hun.
dred and twenty degrees, which a slight
fri ,tion will produce, and this ia turn
ignites the sulphur, which requires four
hundred and fifty or five hundred de-
grees. The flame of the sulphur sets
fire to the pine wood, of which the
match is composed, and which ignites
at about six hundred degrees. The
combination is necessary, because the
phosphorus alone would not kindle the
match, while the sulphur alone would
not ignite with the ordinary friction.

A Curious Custom.

During the sixteenth century, the
custom of burying the human heart
separately from the rest of the body,
prevailed. At Wedmore is monu.
ment sacred to the memory of Capt.
Thomas Hodges, of the county of Som
erset, who, at the siege of Antwerp,
with unconquerea courage, won two en-
signs from the enemy, where, receiving
his last wounds, he gave three legacies ;
his soul to his Lord Jesus, his body to
be lodged in Flemish earth, his heat
TO be sent to his dear wife in England
The heart of Lord Edward Bruce, who
fell in a duel in Holland, was carried
in a silver box to England. 1t was the
custom at one time. to take out the
heart from the urn, and on the ami.
versary of its entombment to refresh il
with glass of wine.

Boiling Babies 10 Repair Telegraph
Wires

An Englishman, named Jencken, has
been eng ged for year or two past in
prosecuting a claim against the Spanish
Government for injuries inflicted upon
him by mob Of Spaniards, at Lucca,
in 1869 While Mr.. Jencken was stop
ping at this place, he was violently as
sauted by crowd of citizens, and
nearly murdered. Subsequently, be as.
certained that his ASSISTANTS had re-
ceived the impression that he was pro-
fessionally engaged in kidnapping babies
and small boys for the purpose of sell
ing the innocents to the telegraph COM
panles.
1t appears that an idea prevails in
Spain that the owners of telegraph lines
are unable to find any material which
will properly repair breaks in their wires
but substance procured from the fat
and intestines of young children, and
that the companies are constantly in re-
ceipt of large quantities of babes and
sucklings, who are Immediately boiled
down for this purpose. Mr.. Jencken,
unhappily, did something which direct
ed against him as the supposed collect
ing agent of the telegraph companies,
the malignant force of this preposterous
notion, and he came very near losing
his life in consequence.

\ Quart of Mississippi Twenty Years
Old.

There is now on exhibition at the
Mercantile Library bottle of water,
vintage 1852. And thereby hangs
tale.
Twenty years ago, DR.. Drake, of Gin.
cinnati, wrote to his son, Mr.. Charles
d. Drake, residing in this city, asking
him to send to Cincinnati, sealed, a
quart of Mississippi water, to be taken
from mid.stream at some depth below
the surface. A law student named Nc.
Daniel, then studying in Mr.. brakes
office, filled the bottle, going out on a
raft above the site of the old water
works. The flask was duly sealed and
put aside to await an opportunity of
forwarding it to Mr.. Drake, ST. Ere
the opportunity offered he died, and
the bottle has lain neglected in the Of
flee ever since. A couple of days since,
Mr.. Drake, who is Judge of the Court
of Claims at Washington City, happen.
ed upon it while removing his books.
The water is singularly clear and sweet.
Judge Drake, who served in the navy
as midshipman, says that the waters of
only two rivers in the world possess the
quality of keeping fresh on a protract-
ed cruise, those of the Gauges and
Mississippi. He has presented the bot
tie to the Mercantile Library, where it
is on exhibition, proof of the supe rier-

Squire Johnson stepped across to his
neighbor Smith, and offered to pay the

acceded-all he wanted was his pay.
The lawyer retained the other five for

some he made no demand upon his
client.
Ten days after, Jones came to see how
Lis case was getting on.
"All right" said the lawyer "you

little philosopher was quietly and con.

The Heather Chinee.

The Californians are becoming recon-
ciled to the domicilation among them
of the Chinaman, and acting on the old
maxim of what cannot be cured must
be endured" are endeavoring to make
John more endurable by teaching him
to discard some of his Objectionable
peculiarities. In many parts of Cali.
fornia the Chinese emigrants are found
in large numbers, and they manage to
earn a livelihood where an American
would starve. In some places they pos
sess whole mining districts which have
been abandoned by white men; in
others they do nearly all the labor of
the husbandman. They are always
ready to turn their hand to any occu-
patton which offers. They build rail
roads, dig canals, make shoes, cook,
wash or mind babies with equal ASST.
duty and content. In San Francis 20
they almost monopolize the peddling Of
fish and vegetables, and make nearly
all the slippers and cigars manufactured
there. There are also sign painters,
carpenters, cabinet max ers, and caryers
among them; indeed, they are invad.
ing almost every variety of trades, and
what is more, they generally succeed in
whatever they undertake. The popular
hostility to the race in the Pacific States
is diminishing, and As the Chinamah
makes himself generally useful wher.
ever he goes, it is probable that in time
1t will entirely die out.
