A Little Composition on the Wheel
barrow.

The Danbury News man Gays:
Ii you lave occasion to use q wheel
barrow, leave it, when you are
through with it, in front of the
house, with the handles toward the
door. A wheelbarrow is the most
complicated thing to fall over on the
face of the earth. A man will fall
over one when he would never think
of falling over anything else; he
never knows when he has got
through falling over it, either; for
it will tangle his legs and his arms,
turn over with him and rear up in
front of him, and just as he pauses
in bis profanity to congratulate him.
self it takes new turn, and scoops
more skin off of him, and he com.
mences to evolute anew, and bump
himself on fresh places. A man
never ceases to fall over wheelbar-
row until it turns completely on its
back, or brings up against some
thing it cannot unset. 1t is the
most inofensive looking object there
is, but it is more dangerous than q
locomotive, and no man is secure
with one unless he has tight hold
of it's handles, and is sitting down
on something. A wheelbarrow has
Its uses, without doubt, but in its
leisure moments it is the great
bighting curse on true dignity.

DEATH OF A WISCONSIN PIONEER
"Reminiscences Of the Black Hawk War.

losn. Geo. W Jones. In the dialogue Times.
The Dodgeville (Wis.) Chronicle
of the lst inst, con; aims an obituary
OF Robert s. Black, who died al that
place October 20, aged SO years. Mr..
Black was born IN the city of Lon
donderry ireland and came to Amer
lea when quite young The first
years of his residence 10 this country
passed in Philadelphia and Charles
ton, South Carolina. He came to
Wisconsin more than forty years ago.
During the Black Hawk war, Black
rendered valuable services, and on
more than one occasion wac the bear
er OF dispatches when no one else
could be found willing to risk their
lives IN travelling through the Indian
infe led country. Mr.. Black leaves

widow Macarthur, who will be re-

in the days when Michigan territory
included not only the state by that
name but the territory now covered
by Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, and
40 on, including evers thing north of
SO degrees and so minutes, and west
to the Pacific Ocean. Mrs. Black
was the half sister Of Henry Dodge,
the first Governor and the first Sem

as the Mining Regiment, (which put

Conversation.

Reforms bear hardly sometimes
Locomotives have killed or mortally
wounded the old stage coaches, and
threshing machines have put an end
to the poetic fail. Ever SO much
that was necessary. And here il IN
other old stand by gone. We must
give up the time-honored basis OF
civilized conversation, the weather
The Weather Bureau has monopoliE
ed the subject So to spe,.s, it does
our conversation for US, even down
TO the conjoctures. 1t not only an.
nounces the country that yesterday
was fine day, but it hazards re-
marks about what tomorrow will
probably be, and as to- day is quite
explicit there is nothing left for or
binary folks to say about the wealth.
or. what will they talk about, Ev-
cry morning the principal words for
the day are taken out of millions of
mouths. Thus the volube are made
slow of speech, and the diffident are
rendered dumb.
A substitute for the weather in
conversation has been suggested and
had it been adopted in time we
should not have found ourselves in
our present lamentabIe situation. 1t
was proposed that arthmetical OBJ
servations be substituted for those of
meteorological nature, so as to rem
der unnecessary such time when and
utterly useless remarks as
ut is a very hot this evening,
miss"
Yes, sir, | think is hotter than it
WAS this morning"
81 really believe it is but it is not
so hot as it was last night"
"If it is as hot as this to morrow /
don't know what l shall do"
'But | don't think it is possible for
it to be hotter than it was yester.
day"
We have something both novel and
instructive to the mind. For in.
stance, people of ordinary culture
might thus converse:
"Tood morning, miss. Nine and
eight make seventeen"
"Yes. sir, they do and three from
seventeen leave fourteen"
"And one moro will make fifteen"
eyes, sir. but ten into fifty-three
is very difficult"
Or, if the parties have attained
higher grade in mathematical knowl.
edge, We might have something like
this
How do you do madam Six and
seven-eigh BIS added to four and
quarter make eleven and one-eighth."
Eyes, indeed, Mr.. Jones and three
and ninth will not go evenly into
fifteen"
Certainly not and eleven-twelfths
of six will come within two and a
half >P heinn eight -
Now, would not such conversation
be improvements in every way upon
the succession of weather platitudes
which have been so long in vogue T?
And shall we not be grateful TO the
Weather Bureau if it brings abe Ut
the change.--Hedrth and Home.

elected to Congress.
General Peyton was both aston
ished and indignant. "Mr. Clay:
d strict, sir, the finest Congressiona
District IN the Blue Grass region, ha;
disgraced itself, SIR" was almost bis
first remark to his neighbor, Colone
| Beauforf.
To his son John he communicated
his intention to bring Mrs. Fauntle-
roy TO adOrn the head Of his table.
"Sir, she is the finest lady in the
Blde Grass region, and | hope. sir
you will always respect your future
mother"
John, with quiet smile, assured
him that he was pleased with bis
choice. This pleased the General
highly, for he bad been a little afraid
John would object to step mother
younger than himself.
The next morning the General or
dered Powhatten Drought out aud
led over to Mrs. Fauntleroy's. CALI
ing John, he requested him to GO
with him to call upon Mrs. Fauntle-
roy.
"The Wing party has disgraced
itself in Mr.. Clay's district, sir, and
l am compelled to part with the Ia
est blooded horse in the State to pay
my wager with that lady, SIR"
The black boy had led Powhattan
to the hitching rail in front of Mrs.
Fauntleroy's yard, and, having tied
him, bad gone int the quarters to
tell his brothers and sisters of their
mis- ress' great good luck in having
won the famous hJrse Powhattan.
When Gen. Peyton and John ar
rived they found the pretty widow
and two young lady friends in the
yard admiring Powhattan. The la
dies we're in high glee, and after the
usual salutations the gentlemen were
invited to take seats on the porch,
which they did.
Madam" said the General to Mrs
Fauntleroy, IL have come here like
true Kentucky gentleman, to pay
the wager 1 have lost Powhattan,
madam, is rightfulIy yours"
"But, General" she said, T" / be-
lieve the wager was conditional. 1t

the place, was it not 2"
Madam" he replied, you are cor
rect But there is nothing on my
place one-half in value of Powhat-
tan, cannot permit you to select an
inferior nimai."
The pretty widow blushed to the
tips of her fingers when she said
"You have another and superior
animal here-your son John; if h-
would but use his tongue, / think 1
shall choose him."
There was moment of dead 81.

"Sir, you will remain"
And that was the way John Pey-
ton came to marry the pretty Wild

General Peyton never forgave his
pretty daughter-in-law her practical
joke. In after years he used to say:

RA-As announced in our news
columns, some days ago, the New
York Mutual Life Insurance Com.
pany has abandoned its purposes of
reducing its rates. The proposition
met with almost universal condemna-

the Press. The reason for this was
the manifest injustice of the propo-
sition toward the old policy holders,
and The general impression that the
company could not carry out it's
determination. The ostensible rea-
son of the company's receding from
it's position was petition from q
committee of life insurance compan-
les asking that the project of lower
rates be abandoned as likely to
prove injurious to the businets of
life insurance generally. The fol-
