A French paper, the Figaro, gives the
following horrible story from The United
States. 1t is pleasant reading for hot
weather:
1t is known that the railroad from San
Francisco to New York passes through
the reservation of several tribes of In
dams, who invariably regard the locomo-
tives as terrible monsters created by the
Manitou to oxterminate the red men.
Several times already the Indians have
attempted to throw the trains off the
track. In these enterprises they were
led by one of the tiercest of their chiefs,
a Cherokee named Nahd, and surnamed
Mocking Bird All their attempts hav-
ing failed, Naha resolved to change his
tactics.
Accordingly on the 2d of June last, he
concealed himself near the rails, and
with extraordinary activity bounded
upon the footboard of train No. 81,
from San Francisco to New York. He
then slipped along the train until he
reached the locomotive, where he killed
the fireman with a blow of his tomahawk.
stabbed the engineer with blow of his
knife, and after scllping them, jumped
on the tender, brandishing the scalps
and bowling out war song.
The settlers along the line became ter
rifed as they saw the train, which now
dashed along at fearful speed, driven
by the ferocious engineer. The passen-
gers all cried out for help. Their situa-
ton was extremely perilous; in fact
they were running right into the jaws of
death.
Finally an officer of the navy, Mr..
Henry Pierce. determined to sacrifice
himself TO save his fellow passengers.
Armed with long dirk knife he ran
along the footboard of the train and
jumped upon the engine. The chief ut
tered a war cry and Drandished his TOM
ahawk, and hand-to-hand struggle was
over the bodies of the engi- !
neer and fireman.
The passengers put their heads out of
the windows and with an anxiety which |
may easily be imagined tried to see the |
fight. In about minute Mr. Pierce fell |
wounded under Mocking Bird, |
who in the twinkling of an eye scalped |
him. But while he was triumphantly
waving the scalp of the victim in the air
MIR. Pierce, who was still living, had
strength to jump up and lunge
lis knife in the Indians breast, killing
lin instantly. He then crawled to the
7alve handle, shut off the steam, and the
rain stopped.
The passengers ran to the assistance of
his brave officer, but it was too late; he
lied two hours afterward.

A NARROW EscApE.-A new story ot
Oregon, Bullstm, aud it has Ill the fero
cious features incident to life in the fai
West. Two brothers, twins, Sam and
Henry Lockhart, were owners of ferry
across the Pitt River in 1852. The win.
ter following while Sam was absent in
Shasta, the Indians made a raid and
killed Henry and all the white settlers
in the vicinity of the ferry. This shock
to the surviving brother served to trans
form HIM into a fiend. He became a
hard drinker, and vowed to devote his
life to the discovery and slaughter of
every Indian that he had any reason to
believe had anything to do with the
slaughter of his brother And he car
ried ont that purpose till his very name
was terror to all the Indians within
hundreds of miles. He was wanderer,
and could not be restrained by law or
the entreattes of the whites. On one of
his expeditions he met Joaquin Miller,
whom he suspected of completely in his
brothers murder. He had not yet
proof enough, however, to justify the
shooting Ol ultu On slSHl. w HetleT
Miller resisted is not stated; but GER
tainly Sam made him a prisoner, and
marched him to Yreka, where serious
consultation was had with Judge Rosbo-
rough in whose judgement the avenger
had great confidence. at was with
great dlfficulty,' says the Bulletin. "that
the Judge then only practising lawyer
in Yreka, could persuade Sam that he
was mistaken in his suspicious, his only
remark being, if he is guilty, l shall
kill him, sure" After questioning and
cross examining that wonld have done
credit to a member of the bar-Miller
having been directed by the judge to
be perfectly frank and truthful-Sam
was at last satisfied with his innocence
and permitted him to go unmolested.
The lovers and admirers of Joaquin Mil
|er's poetry may thank Judge Rosborough
that their favorite did not receive his
leath from Sam Lockhart's unerring
rifle nearly twenty years ago. Poor Sam
continued his lawless course until he met
, bloody death in Idaho, while engaged
n one of those mining disputes which
we're decided by the law of the knife and
,istol,"

REvERsEs or FORTUNE. The White
Pine Necs recently related this oc-
currence, showing up an experience
which may be SAID to be 10y no means
uncommon, among the early residents of
the Pacific cost: "An old man, with
grizzly beard, gray hair, and shabby
dress, arrived here the beginning of last
week on foot from Eureka. 1t was after
nightfall when he entered the town, foot
sore and hungry. He entered restau
rant, took seat at table, and asking
for something to eat, saying he had no
money, but must eat or die. The peo-
pie of White Pine are no way backward
when deserving object of charity, be
it man or woman, comes along and the
keepers of the restaurants are particu-
larly noticeable for their liberality. A
meal was promptly set out for the old
mans discussion. Before he had fin
ished, certain man who is connected
with mercantile house entered and
recognised him Us IN old acquaintance
from Virginia City. He paid for the
old mans supper, procured a bed for
him, and gave him coin for present nee
essities, telling him to call and see him
the next day. He did not make any Al
pearance, aud on inquiry it was found
that he had left the LODGING house in
the morning. A passenger on the last
Phoebe stage informs us that man an
swering this description was seen at Pat
terson, on the way TO Piochc. The fol-
lowing is n portion of his history, as
obtained from the merchant alluded to
The old man 1--WE will so call HIM was
among the first to reach Washoe after
the discovery of the Comstock mines
He secured interests in several mines,
aud in less than year from his arrival
commanded $780, 900 in ready cash His
family. wife and two daughters, were
living in San Francisco. He returned,
and placed $3.50, 900 of the amount in
his wife's hands, rcserving $50, 900 to
operate with in Virginia City. Two
months after he received letter from
San Francisco stating that his wife and
daughters had left on Panama steamer.
That was the last intelligence received
Of them. In few months he was with.
out dollar, and deserted by those who
were prompt to do him reverence when
fortune smiled on him. He disappeared |
from Virginia, and was supposed to have
lied in Unionvile Such is brief ac-
,ount of this unfortunate man as related

The Making " an Orangeman.

The Orange institutions says an eI.
change, received their name from John
Gihard, of Dublin, though they existed
before he named them. The annals Of
the period from 1895 up to 1920 show
that citizens were uniformed then. The
Catholic wore green in his cap, green in
his shoe-tes, or, il all failed, green
ribbon in his button. hole ; while the
Protestant, in memory of the famous
victories of King William Ill, wore ''or-
ange' as conspicuously AS possible.
Some of the ceremonies of the initia
tion of Orangemen were borrowed from
the Freemasous. The applicant for nd
mission was required to deny that he
had ever been Catholic or should ever
become one, and that he should always
do all in his power to maintain the Prot
estant ascendency. The ritual was
adopted from the sixty.eight l. n.
According TO Sir Jonah Darlington le
Orangeman toast was copied after It
Of the "Aldermen of Skinner's Alley -
individuals famous in their time for de.
fyine King James and deifying King
William. The toast was drunk on the
bare knees, after their possessors had
dlned on Sleeps troiters in delicate al-
lusion to James feat OF running away
from Dublin. This ''unparalled senti.
ment was as follows:
"The glorious, pious, and immortal
memory OF the great and good King
William; not forgetting Oliver Cromwell,
who assisted in rcdeoming us from po-
perry, slavery, arbitrary power, brass
money. and wooden shoes. May we
never want n William to kick Jacobite,
and - for the bishop Of Cork |
And he that won't drink this whether he
be n priest, bishop, deacon, bellows
blower. graye-digger. or any other OF
the fraternity of the clergy, may north
wind blow him to south, and west
wind blow him to the east! May he
have dark night, n lee shore, a rank
storm aud leaky vessel, to carry him
over the river StyI. May the dog Ger
berus make meal Of his head, and
Pluto snufr-box of his skull; and may
the devil jump down his throat with a
red hot harrow, with every pin tear ont
1 gut, and blow HIM with a clean carcass
TO hell Amen"

4 Woman In Il Turkish Bath

The Wool CLIP OF THE WEST The
Financial Chronicle in summary of the
prospects of the wool clip for 1872, says
1t appears that the clip of the Northwest
promises to come in late this season, ow.
ing to the backward spring, winch has
retarded general farm work and h, nee
made it necessary to postpone shealing
very generally until other work has been
disposed of. AS to the amount of the
clip, there is reason to fear that it will
not exceed, if indeed it does not fall
somewhat below that of last year IL
Wisconsin the flocks are not as large as
at this time last year and in Michigan it
is estimated that there will he falling
off of at least ten per cent. There seems
to have been no general effort made to
keep up and increase the focks in the
Northwest, owing to the moderate price
Of wool last spring while the drought of
last fall injured the pastures and com
PEELED many of the sheep raiscrs to begin
foddering a month or more earlier than
usual consequently fiocks were reduced
IN number to save fodder, which was
neither abundant or cheap. The advance
in the price of wool later in the season
came too late to stimulate production,
and there seems, therefore, to be good
grounds for the belief that the amount of
the clip in the Northwest will be some
what, and possibly considerably less this
year than last. In Ohio the largest
wool growing State this side of the Rocky
Mountains, the condition of affairs is
reported to be pretty much the same,
Nor is there any good reason for believ-
ing that there will be any considerable
increase of production in this or the New
States. In West Virginia
Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Kansas
and Iowa, however, the clip is likely to
be in excess of last year, though not suffi- |
cient to offset the deficiency reported
elsewhere, while the production of Hi
lois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
md other States is so small as not TO |
affect the supply materially.

pale.

She rose from her seat and strolled
up the garden path.
Jenny did not follow. She sat on the
step lost in thought. The riddle of her
friends life was at last made clear to her.
She had often wondered why Margaret, in
the midst of all her wealth and luxury,
should seem so sad, she wondered no
longer now.
To be the wife of a man who had no
love for you. What lower deep" can
there be than this FOR a proud and sensi-
tive woman2
Jenny turned with tears in her eyes to
meet the stalwart husband as he came
from the field.
"Well. little woman" he cried and then
she got the hearty kiss for which she was
ooking.
Yes, Margaret was right. The butter
md cheese were of little consequence
while love like this made her task easy to
'ndure.
