Death of Count Ferretti.


The cologne Gazette says that the
death of Count Joseph Mastai Fer
retti has sent His Holiness in the
deepest seclusion, the latter having
severely felt his brothers death, al
though there had been something OF
estrangment between them on ac-
count of their differences on political
points. Most of the members of the
Masti family have been conspicuous
for their uprightness and inclination
toward liberalism, and it was certain
ly the case that in the earlier part of
his reign the Pope himself showed
unmistakable tendencies in the same
wholesome direction. On his return
from Gaeta, when leaning on the sup
port of France, he adopted a react
ionary policy, his own family became
so opposed to it that they actually
quilted their native property of ST.
nigaglia until it had become includ-
ed in the new kingdom of Italy. The
Count just deceased lived, forgotten
and solitary, on his small patrimony,
and lust as Mrs. Mahomet declined
to believe in her husbands infallibil-
ity, so did Count Joseph resolutely
refuse to recognize that of his broth
er. The Masti date their origin from
a Venitian manufacturer, who, du-
ring the sixteenth century, settled
in the Marches Of Ancona and ac-
quired a fortune there, which his de
scendants increased by an alliance
with the powerful family of Ferretti.

sawing WOOD bv nleotrioity.

The Scientific american records
the change of one of the impossible
tiles of the past into a reality.
George Robinson, M. D., of New
York, has invented mode of saw
ing or cutting wood without saw or
ak, by electricity. This gslvanic
current, when passed over platinum
wire in sufficient quantity, heats
the wire to white heat. The wire
thus heated, does the work of saw or
ak, without any appreciable expendi-
ture of muscular force. By arrang-
ing the wines with handles, or other
means by which it may be guided,
any kind oflumber, whether in trees,
logs or planks, may be cut as de-
sired. The battery need be only of
the simplest kind, as quantity, not
intensity of current is required. A
child by this means may fell the
largest tree in tie forest, divide it
into logs, or cut it into boards, with
out saw or ak. Only think of it
The idea of cutting down a huge
pine tree with wire. Some wise
acre stands up and declares: 81
don't believe il. 1t can't be done" ,"
But such should remember that they
talked just so when the telegraph
was projected. 1t is another proof
that the impossibilities of to day are
the scientific facts of tomorrow.

The cable has announced the death,
in Geneva, in his seventy-ninth year,
of DIR. Jean Henri Merle-D' Aubigne,
the celebrated historian of the Ref
ormation. He was born in Switzer-
land, August 10th, 1894 He was
the third son of Louis Merle, mer-
chant of that city, and was nObly de
scended on the side of his father,
whose father married the daughter
of a distinguished French nobleman,
D'Aabigne. From this paternal
grandmother Prof. Merle derived his
surname, (D'Aubigae), J, by common
Swiss custom. He was educated at
Geneva, and after his collegiate
course there, went to Berlin to attend
the lectures of Neander. He was for
several years the pastor of French
Cbarch at Hamburg, and afterward
the favorite court preacher of the
late King of Holland at Brussels In
1880 he returned to Geneva. When
the evangelical society of Geneva
founded their theological school, he
was appointed to the Chair of Ec-
clesiastical History. AS n writer,
both on theology and church histo-
ry,but especially in the latter depart
ment, he was widely known both in
Europe and America.

Largest Land Sale Ever made to

Largest Land Sale Ever made to a
Single Person.
On Friday last formal sale was
made by General Robert K, Carr,
President of the Kansas Pacific rail
way, to Geo. Grant Esq. of London,
England, of large body Of land COW
ering twenty-four square miles Of
territory lying contiguous to the line
of the Kansas Pacific railway in Ellis
county, Kansas. The tract extends
thirteen miles along the railway,
twenty four miles along Victoria riv
er, thirteen miles across the country
to Smoky Hill river, and has seven
miles of water frontage on Smoky
Hill river. A new city to be called
Victoria will be laid out along the
railway. A fine station-house will
be erected, with lodging apartments
for newcomers. An elegant hotel
will be built and all the necessary
water tanks. stock yards, ETC., to
properly conduct the business of an
important station will be supplied.
The railway officials offered to name
the new city after Mr.. Grant, the pur
chaser, but with great modesty he
declined the honor, and preferred to
have it called after his queen. This
extensive purchase will result in un-
told good to our country. Mr.. Grant,
with his usual energy and good taste,
will expeud a large amount in lay
ing out park, and in erecting build
ings, tree planting, etc. He will go
to England at once, and expects to
return to this country in March with
a fine selection of blooded horses
cattle, etc. A number of experience
ed farmers, stock raisers, etc. will
also be sent over. 1t is Mr.. Grants
intention to subdivide his purchase
into farms of various sizes, to erect
farm houses thereon, and to sci
lands and improvements at fair rates
and upon terms which will enable
every Industrious person to obtain {
| good home in a fine section of count
Try.
We predict that Victoria will bt
one of the most important towns il
Western Kansas, and that when the
contemplated improvements are
made the advantages of a residence
there will be manifest to all.-KGR

Can SUCH Re2

In answer to the above question,
we refer to the following from the
Cincinnati Commercial:
From one of our Lake Shore
cities came here recently, bringing
with him a newly married, sweet
young wife, well known merchant,
Mr.. B. He was on his wedding tour,
and he was happy. Having numer
Gus acquaintances in the vicinity of
the court house, and a tooth for Ger
man cooking, he took room at the
Hummel House and ate several
meals at the Debolt.
Mr.. B. was not only happy over
the possession of his new wife, and
his resurrection from the depths Of
misery incident to widowerhood,
but he was proud her, and gloried in
his success in having won her. Feel
ing so, he was forward i'll introducing
her to his friends, and happy in hear
ing their expressions of admiration.
Having business on pearl street one
day, he tore himself away from his
bride, with the assurance that he
would soon return. On his way
home he happened to meet a partic-
nlar friend, from whom he would
not take refusal of his invitation
to Immediately call upon his wife.
Arm in arm the friends marched up
to the hotel, and up stairs to the
bridal chamber Mr.. B. raped on
the door. No response came. In
his hurry he thoughtlessly turned
the knob and gave the door a push.
The door had been locked on the in
side, but the rusty old lock gave
way instantly, and the two gentle
men found themselves looking upon
a scene that fairly curdled BIS blood
with rage and despair. The guilty
woman jumped from the bed and
hid behind it. The male wretch,
with a curse, ordered the men fIom
his room. Refusing for moment
to credit his senses, Mr.. B. rushed
down to the Office, followed by his
friend, and demanded of the clerk:
"Where is my wife?"
Cup in her ROOM"
Mr.. B. commenced sinking down
into his boots at this confirmation
of what had already greeted his eyes
when the clerk, recollecting some
thing, added:
'Up in the new room, you know.
Here, boy, show Mr.. B. to his room"
Mrs..B. was found reading a NOR
ming paper in. the new room, and
Mr.. B. remembered that the clerk
had promised, that morning, to give
him better room than the one he
had occupied. The couple that had
been so unceremoniously disturbed
in the old room with the insecure
fastening had come here that day.

Death of Two Adventurous Tourists
in the Crater ofyVesuvius.

Death of Two Adventurous Tourists
in the Crater ofIVesuvius.
The ReUistG of Naples contains
the following account of the loss of
two gentlemen in the crater of Yes
uvius, who, with great temerity, in
sisted on being lowered down to- the
dark cavern Immediately below the
orifce of the crater: "a party was
formed to ascend Mount Vesuvius
on Friday afternoon in the Cafe de
Europa. The party consisted of
two Americans, three Englishmen
and one Frenchman. On Sunday
night they took carriages from the
cafe for Resina, reaching there at
11:30P. NJ. Having procured hors-
es, guides, and other necessaries,
they started for the burning noun
tain and began the ascent, one Luigi
Garogio leading as cicerone, and ar
rived at the base of the uppermost
cone, further than which horses do
not go. The tourists then began
the ascent over the hillocks and
boulders of lava until the vicinity of
the crater was reached, when
Messrs James Wilcox and Francois
LIE Mieur, an American and a
Frenchman, insisted on being lower
ed down to the cavern which is
formed below the mouth of the vol
cano. The guides, who provide
themselves Yith ropes for that pur-
pose, complied with the request Of
the foreigners and lowered them
down. The mountain being perfect
ly quiet, no danger was anticipated;
but when one of the party above the
crater called out to the rash adven-
turers no answer was returned. The
guides, growing anxious, cried:
''Gentlemen, it would be be better
for you to hold on to the ends of the
ropes" Still the ropes remained
slack, and no answer came from the
sulphurous and murky cavern be-
low. Twenty minutes passed, and
the adventurers were yet silent.
1t was then proposed that one of
the guides should be lowered down
and hold on to the ropes he had in
vestigated the appearance of the
cavern base. He had hardly enter
ed when he cried out Justify: "Sul
su! non c'e niente ohe una pietra
strettissimar' cup! up! there's
nothing here but a very narrow
rockp) AS far as any living person
can tell the rest-the unfortunate
strangers, the victims of their own
imprudence-were hurled into the
abysses of Mount Vesuvius. In this
same month, sixteen years ago, two
Englishmen of birth and fortune
and French comedian committed
the same terrible error. The same
ambition which urged them to scale
the icy nights of the Matterhorn also
nerved them to search insidious
Vesuvius while it slept, and they
were either lost in some labyrinth
of the lava and ashes or smothered
vapor of sulphur.

This wonderful vegetable
restorative is the sheet-an-
chOr of the feeble and de-
bilitated. As a tonic and
cordial for the aged and Ian
guild it has no equal among
stomachics. AS a remedy for
the nervous weakness to
which women are especially
subject, it is superceding ev-
cry other stimulant. In all
climates, tropical, temperate
or frigid, it acts as a specific
in every species of disorder
which undermines the bodily
strength and breaks dOWnthe

NOT NOW.

Not now, my child-a little more rough tossing,
A little longer on billow's foam,
A few more journeyings in the desert darkness,
And then the sunshine of thy Fathers home!
Not now, for have wanderers in the distance,
And thou must call them in with patient
love,
Not now, for have sheep upon the mountains,
And thou must follow them where'er they
rove.
Not now, for have loved ones sad and weary;
Wilt thou not cheer them with a kindly
smileP
Sick ones who need thee in their lonely sorrow,
Wilt thou not tend them yet a little whileP
Not now for wounded hearts are soreIy bleed
ing,
And thou must teach those widowed hearts
to sing;
Not now, for orphan tears are thickly falling;
They must be gathered meath some shelter
ing wing.
Not now, for many hungry one is pining:
Thy willing hand must be outstretched and
| free;
Thy Father hears the mighty cry of anguish
And gives His answering message to thee
Go, with the name of Jesus to the dying,
And speak the name in all its living power
Why should thy faltering heart grow chill and
weary?
Canst thou not watch with me one little
hourP
One little hOurl and then the glorious crown
ing,
The golden harp-strings and the victor
palm;
One little hour, and then the halleluiahI
