appearance of the fireman and en-

"reminiscences of Old Kentucky
Times.

The skill Of old Kentucky hunters is
Il matter Of history, and the pithy say
ings of these men have passed into
proverbs. The shotgun was unknown
in frontier life, or, if known. looked
upon with contempt. The bear, the
deer, and the wild turkey were the game
the old hunters went in quest Of but,
when they could not be found, the rifle
was sighted at the squirrel, and the ball
sent whizzing through the head, To
hit the squirrel in any other place than
the head was the sign Of poor marks
man, and a poor marksman was held at
a great discount by the hardy pioneers.
But times have greatly changed. The
old hunters are fast being gathered in
the fold of death, and a new race of
shooters have come upon the carpet
The larger game has disappeared before
the advanced tide of civilization, so
that rifle is of very little practical
value now. Birds, which cleave the
air on rapid wing, are the things that
excite the enthusiasm of the sports
man. and in order to cut them down in
sportsmanlike way the shet-gun is
called into requisition. Notwithstand-
ing the times have altered so much, it
is pleasant to drift through the reminis-
cences of pioneer life, and to recall the
glorious reign of the rifle.
One of the most celebrated shots of
Kentucky is DR.. c. Graham. His aim
was next to infallible, and in his younger
days he killed as effectively at long
range as at short range. The Louis
vile COurier-,TOUndl tells that he could
ring the bell or take the bulls eye at
every shot a distance of 200 yards,
while turkey stood little chance of
retaining life if he drew bead on it at
400 yards. For half century the doc
tor used favorite rifle of primitive
make which he christened Butcher.
The gun was always kept in the very
best condition, and he loved it as fondly
as he could have loved a child. The
barrel was thirty-three inches long, and
the bore nine sixteenths of an inch,
carrying thirty-two balls to the pound.
The doctor is now an old man, and he
has bequeathed his rifle to postenty.
He has placed it in the museam at
Louisville, and it hangs side by side
with the rifle that proved such terror
to the Indians in the hands Of Daniel
Boone. 1t is well to treasure up these
relics of frontier life, for they are a
part OF tine history OF the Stote that
once was looked upon by the civilized
/ world a. @ the dark and hloady ground

A STRANGE phenomena has, 1t seems,
been discovered by the British survey
ing ship Shearwater which vessel, hav-
ing accomplished her task for this
season, has lately returned to Gallipoli.
The labors of the surveying parties on
board have, says the Dardanelles cor
respondent of the Levant Herald,
been crowned with satisfactory results,
and one highly interesting fact has been
ascertained of which the existence was
never before surmised. 1t was found
that the proverbially rapid current
which runs from north to south both in
the Dadanelles and the Bosphorus is
only superficial, for at the depth Of 20
fathoms the surveying party discovered,
in the course of their soundings, that
there exists an under current running
with prodigious force into the
Black Sea. So test the strength Of this
under current special apparatus was
constructed and attached to the ships
boats, when astonishing to relate the
boats were in many places driven along
against tIe upper current with velocity
greater than that Of the steam launch

Is There a God ?

How eloquently does Chateaubriand
reply to this inquiry;
There is a God The herb Of the
valley, the cedars of the mountains
bless Him; the insect sports in His
beams the elephant salutes Him with
the rising orb Of day the bird sings
Him in the foliage; the thunder pro-
claims Him in the heavens; the ocean
declares His immensity; man alone has
said There is no God !" Unite in
thought at the same instant the most
beautiful objects in nature; suppose
that you see at once all the hours Of the
day and all the seasons of the year
morning of spring and a morning of au-
tUnn; a night bespangled with stars
and a night covered with clouds
meadows enabled with flowers, and
forests heavy with snow; fields gilded
by tints of autumn; then alone
YOU will have just conception of the
universe. While you are gazing on the
sun which is plunging under the vault
of the west, another observer admires
him emerging from the gilded gates of
the east. BY what inconceivable magic
does that aged star, which is sinking
fatigued and burn,Eg in the shade of
evening, reappear az the same instant,
fresh and humid with the rosy dews of
morning? At every instant of the day
the glorious orb is at once rising, re-
splendent at MONDAY, and setting in
the west or rather our senses deceive
us, and there is, properly speaking, no
east. west, north, or south in the world.
Everything reduces itself to a single
point, from whence the king of day
sends forth at once triple light in
one substance. The bright splendor is
perhaps that which nature can present.
that is most beautiful; for while it
gives us an idea of the perpetual mag
nifcence and resistless power of God,
it Exhibits at the same time shining
image OF the glorious trinity

WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF ACCIDENT
Prof Wilder, of the Cornal University,
gives these short rules for action in cases
OF accident
For dust In the eyes, avoid rubbing ;
DASH water in them renOve ciu&ers, etc:,
with the ronnd point of lead pencil.
Remove water from the ear with tend
water; never put hard instrument into
tue ear.
If an artery is cut, compress above the
wound ; If vein is cut, compress be-
low.
If choked, get upon all tours and cough
For slight burns, dip the part in cold
water ; if the skin is destroyed, cover with
vsrnish.
Smother fire with carpet, etc, water
will often spread burning oil, and increase
danger. Before passing through smoke,
take full breath and then stoop low, but
if carbon Is suspected, walk erect.
Suck poisoned wounds, unless your mouth
is sore enlarge the wOend, or better, cut
out the part without delay hold the
wounded part as long as can be borne to a
hot coat; or end of cigar.
For add poisons, give alkaiis for aka
line puis"ns. give acids-whte of egg is
good ln most cases in cass of opium pOis-
oning give strong coffee and keep NOV
ing.
For nPoplexy, raise the head and body
for falntiDg, lay the person fat.
