He WAS A RAoER.-One day last week
a young man, apparently boy, dressed
rather roughly and riding an old-looking
horse, stopped at Wetmore to rest and
get dinner and feed his horse. Upon in
quiry, he said he was going to the Home
stead region. Some OF the " sports " in
the town had been training their horses
for racing. They, more for amusement
than anything else, bantered the "home-
steader" for race for purse of $500.
After considerable talk and bluster, the
stranger concluded to run his horse. The
time came to run, the old coat was pull
ed off, and 10 "A scarlet jacket was there.
No sooner did the horse see the red Jack
ct than he pricked up his ears, and it re-
quired three men to hold him while the
saddle was being adjusted and the rider
mounted. 1t is only necessary to add
that the money was won by the "home-
steader," leaving the Wetmore chaps
waiting for the next. The same game
was played by the same fellow at Seneca.

A TRUsTY BAROMETER. - Upon the
Little Snake Creek, near Binghampton,
lives an original character, "to fortune
and to fame unknown" This genuine
Solon Shngle has been in the habit Of
coming to Binghampton, getting stagger-
ing drunk, and going home in that condi-
senting such usage by administering some
punishment when Uncle Soon comes
home drunk, and sometimes she receives
him with loving, open arms. But Uncle
Solon has a never-faiing barometer,
which he makes use of on such occasions
to ascertain if there is a storm brewing
When he arrives at the house he opens
the door and throws in his old hat. As
there is only one room in the house, he
gets quick response. If the hat stays
Uncle Solon knows its all right, and stag
gers in with assurance Of warm sup
per aud undisturbed slumbers during the
night. But if the hat comes back-and
if it comes spitefuliy- Solon takes
himself to the stables and spends the
night with his horses. That barometer
has been in operation for over forty years
and never failed to Indicate Storm
And Uncle Solon never failed to heed
the cautionary signal. There is nothing
like accuracy to establi-h confidence.

A STRANGE SToRY.-In the year 1885,
the captain of Greenland whaling ves-
sci found himself at night surrounded by
ieebergs, and . lay to" until morning,
expecting every moment to be ground to
pieces, In the morning he looked about
him and saw ship near by. He hailed
it but received no answer. Getting into
his boat with some of his crew, he push
ed out Tor the mysterious craft. Coming
along side the vessel, he saw through the
port-hole, a man at the table, as though
keeping u log-book, frozen to death. The
last date in the log book was 1772, show
ing that the vessel had been drifting
for thirteen years among the ice. The
sailors were found, some frozen in their
hammocks, and others in the cabin. For
thirteen years this ship had been carrying
its burden OF eorpses-a drifting sepul-
chre manned by the frozen crew.

CoURTsHIP IN SOUTH AFRICA. - II
you desire to get married in South Afri-
ca, you should first make inquiry wheth-
or the lady you love has got horse if
so, you must ask her ii she has horse
for sale. If she says No." then you
had better quit the house at once. Sine
does not like you. But if, on the contra
ry she says YES" it is a good sign but
she will ask you very high price. If
the amount named is paid on the spot.
the engagement is concluded, as fully us
if marriage was consummated by the
parson. Mr.. Gerard, now of Philadel-
phia, formerly consul at Cape Town,
tells this amusing story Of his initiation
to the ways of the place "On my arri-
val at the Cape, | did not know of this
custom. | wanted to purchase q horse,
and | was informed by an old Dutch resi-
dent that widow - had one to sell.-
l followed the address given, and soon ar
rived at the door Of the widow (who, by
the way, was not bad looking.) l asked
her whether she had horse to sell. She
looked at me very sharp; then asked me
if had any letters of Introduction. l
said | was the American consul and
would pay cash for her horse. g In this
case" said she I" no letters are needed"
paid down the sum demanded, then,
after taking cup of coffee, she sent her
horse by her groom, and both accompan-
led me home. On the road, the groom
asked me thousand questions. Mas
with you in town, or will you come ard
live with Us You will love her very
much, for she was very kind to my old
master. Where will the wedding be ?"
Cooking at me and aughing). Truly"
l thought, "the poor fellow has drank
too much, or he is an imbccile." l felt
sorry for him. When | arrived home |
found many people at my door congratu-
lating me, not for the horse, but for the
acquaintance with the widow. "Truly,"
said one, you have been very successful"
b'hO 10 NOIJ ilNhi eNlu ullolilCl'
really did not know what it meant, and l
began to be very uneasy, when, to my
very great surprise, II lady alighted on
my steps and | at once recognized the
widow. She very coolly asked me when
| desired to have the ceremony Of the
wedding performed. Then, indeed, l
fully perceived the scrape in which was,
and | told her frankly it was horse /
wanted, and not a wife. What" said
she, q" do you mean to act thus to lady
like me ? If so | shall send back for my
horse, and will repay you the money!
In few hours her groom was at the
door with the money. gladly gave back
the horse, thankful to have thus escaped.
A few weeks after, however, the widow
was married ; more ambitious man had
bought her horse"

! The DOGS OF THE PoLARIs.- Christ
mas Day was gala day on board the
Polari-. The good ship was hemmed in
by heavy field ice; but the weather was
p 'easant rs an Italian Spring day. The
Es quimauX and the dogs which Captain
Ha II procured at st. Johns, were brought
into requisitlon, and seal hunt was pro-
pose as the object OF the day. The dogs
were lowered to the ice in a boat from
the davits, were tack kled to low slcdgus by
the h squimaux. Capt. Hall says that
the sas;acity and tractabeness OF the ami
mails were remarkable. After half an
hours stretch gallop over the heavy ice,
the painting dogs suddenly drew up and
yelled, and paved the surface. One of
the Esquimau X-the oldest of the lot-at
once Interpreted the warning Of the dogs
and quick us Ii ghtnng he bounded from
his seat, and tn rned the dogs heads to-
ward the ship. In half the time it took to
reach the dis tance they had Travelled
from the PotaTiS, the eager dogs pulled
up beside the hull. Around the horizon
then there were IN urlly clouds assem- bling
and the atmosphere felt misty and bleak.
Within an hour alter the barking of the
sagacious animals, the ice had broken up,
and the P0ldris was separated from it by
stormy channel nearly half mile wide.
Had the seal hunting party fulfilled their
their intention OF urging on the dogs and
keeping up the sport until moonlight,
few Of them would have survived The ex-
cursion.-N. Y. Times.

A MARTYR TO ScrrNcr.-When, on

A MARTYR TO When, only
a few weeks ago, the cholera was raging
IN the slums of Berlin, young physician
scarcely past his thirtieth year, made
himself remarked by the boldness and
persistency with which he entered the in
fected quarter, and the apparent reckless
ness with which he exposed himself to the
contagion. 1t is worth while that his
name should be recorded and well re-
membered it was Otto Obermeir. He
had another object besides that of reliev-
ing and ifpossible, curing the poor crea-
lures whom he visited. He proposed to
himself to investigate, the presence of
of the living pestllence itself, its causes
and its development. AT last the brave
young soul thought he had discovered
the clew and with heroism as far
above the heroism of the battlefield as it
is nobIer to sacrifice ones self to save
men than to destroy them, he resolved to
test his discovery upon himself. 1t was
an awful moment. Obermeir knew full
we'll that he staked his life against the
hope of conquering the cholera. Obtain
ing from one of his patients some of the
deadly chcleraic germ, he went deiber-
ately to his room, placed table with
pencil and paper by his bedside, and
then lay calmly down upon the bed,
opened vein in his arm, and inserted
the deadly poison. He thought he had
discovered how to neutralize it; if so,
man was master of the pestilence for ev-
ermore. But he was wrong and the error
was fatal. He lived seven hours and then
died but during these seven dying hours
the young hero observed, with scientific
exactness, the effect and progress of the
disease upon him, and one after another
he noted his observations until within the
very half hour when the spirit left the
body. These notes are pronounced to
have the highest value, and will serve the
Commission with new facts of the first
importance. And so the dying legacy of
Otto Obermeir may, after all, lead to the
victory which he condemned himself to
self destruction in trying to achieve

POKER IN RADo.--The town of
Fairplay. Colorado, SO named from the
fair manner in which its people play
poker, was enlivened not long since by
little game, whose satisfactory result will
commend it favoraby to all who become
entangled in like disputes. Before the
draw " Graves held liking full " and
Mr.. Walker rejoiced in three aces, but
after that interesting ceremony Walker
exhibited four aces, and claimed the
stakes, whereupon Graves drew six
shooter and reckoned his hand was the
best. Walker Immediately supplemented
the four aces with bowie knife, and the
dispute was settled to the satisfaction of
the outsiders. There was enough in the
"pot" to purchase two handsome coffins,
and the next day both gentlemen took up
permanent residence, side by side, in the
beautiful cemetery that reflects SO much
credit upon Fairplay.

IL New Jersey, many years ago, a good
hearted man and his long tongued, style
talking wife, attended social party.
Almost every three minutes his wife
would check her husband thus
Now William, don't lean back in
your chair in that way"
Now William, don't talk SO loud"
Now William, don't get so noisy over
there"
"Now William, let the girls alone and
sit by me-"
AT last forbearance ceased to be vir-
tue, and the husband, who was really pit
led by all in the room, arose and said
81 beg pardon Of the company, but as
my wife insists on being boss all the time
it is right she should have these"
And deliberately he took off his pants
and handed them to his wife, and then
pat down in his boots and drawers.

VERY STRANGE THING.

One evening in my forest range,
l witnessed something very strange:
Along the lake side, to and fro.
| saw a hunter riding slow;
Lo, many a deer around him run;
And what does he? He fires at mono,
He blows his horn, the echoes ring.
Will any one explain this thing?
Then further walking, puzzled quite,
l stood and saw another sight:
A skiff that held a fishing maid,
For fishing perfectly arrayed;
The fishes sported on the lake,
let not n fish she deigned to take;
A woodland song / heard her sing.
Win any one explain this thing?
Returning, twas my lot to see
A strange occurrence, number throe:
A horse an empty saddle bore,
An empty skiff was by the shore,
And whore the shady naples grow,
l heard two people talking low;
The moon the leaves was silvering.
Win any one explain this thing?

AN absent-minded smoker named Y sn.
cey, undertook to whisper something Of
Importance in the ear of old Mr.. Rey-
nolds, Saturday, but in his absent mind
edaess neglected to remove his cigar, the
fire end of which was driven right into
the old gentleman's ear. Mr.. Reynolds
jumped straight into the air about six
feet, and on coming down split Yancey's
nose by well directed blow. Yancey
picked himself up, and started for home,
declaring in a rage that he'd not tell old
Reynolds what he was going to.
