THE LYON COUNTY TIMES
A Spanking Machine.

This is an age of invention, and
there is no knowing what day may
bring forth. Prominent educators
have for years racked their brains
and consumed midnight oil to
devise some method whereby the
youthful student, the urchin with
thick-soled pantaloons, could be
chastised as the gravity of his Of
Tense might demand without infiict-
ing o more severe punishment upon
the lady teachers hand than upon
the child. Previous to the inven-
ton of this machine, principals of
schools have wept to see their assist
ants go round with their arms in a
sling, from the effects of Furnishing
scholars. In many cases excellent
teachers, who loved their calling,
have been compelled to resign their
positions because they had too much
on their hands. The matter has
been discussed at the various insti-
tutes, and it had been almost decid-
ed to adopt capital punishment in
stead of the time-honored taking
across the knee, when the inventor
of this machine stepped in, and, by
a simple device, he saved the lives
of many valuable young ones. The
heart of the inventor was touched
by seeing frail school ma'am with
her right hand swelled up to the size
of a canvas-ham from agitating
boy who had wickedly placed
piece of clapboard inside of his
pants when he knew that the teacher
was on the war-path after him. The
teacher was weeping, and mentally
saying she would run that boy
through threshing machine before
she got through with him.
The idea at once struck the in
ventor that a machiae could be con-
structed that would tan the jacket, as
it were, of the young reprobate, and
as the result of careful thought and
study the spanking machine was in
vented. What a change! Instead
of dreading the task of Furnishing
scholars and shivering at the pros
pect of blistered hands, the teacher
can enjoy the performance and look
forward to the hour for doing up the
days spanking with feeling OF
pleasure and gladness, and the frown
formerly stereotyped on the face of
the average school-marm gives place
to an angelic smile. She seats her |
self at the instrument, after placing !
the condemned urchins in a row |
within reach of the hoisting appara-
tus or ice-tongs, she smiles, touches

FIRE AT THE RICHMOND WORKS.
Yesterday morning, between nine
and ten o'clock, smoke was discov-
cred issuing from the fue of the
fume arrester at the Richmond
works, and the fact soon developed
that the wood work forming the tun-
mel was on fire. Fortunately the
fire was not extensive and by dint of
hard work in combating the flames,
it was under perfect control, and in a
short time extinguished. The fire
originated at the same point as on
July 14th last, when the entire
woodwork of the arrester was de-
stroyed, and from causes similar.
The seepage by some means found
its way into the fiue and moistening
the accumulation of dust and char
coal in state of fine division, in
that part, acted on the sulphurets,
pyritess etc., inducing a chemical
action causing great heat. This,
forEing hot gases, soon ignited the
frame work and started what might
have proved disastrous result.
About sixty feet of the tunnel cover
ing was torn up, and the men at the
furnace speedily got water on the fire
from the apparatus at the works.
The damage will be slight and soon
repaired. The water thrown on the
powdered charcoal in the flue lead
ing up the trench, produced the
same scientific phenomenon as on a
former occasiOn-that of causing
spontaneous combustion--an occur
renee rarely witnessed. - Eureka

Il San Francisco JYcdding.

The San Francisco Call, speaking OF the
marriage of Miss Clara A. Sharon, daugh-
ter of VIM. A. Sharon, the mining mil
iionairc Of the Golden City, says it was
one of the most magnificent weddings OF
modern Ii ncs. Mr.. Sharon has just COM
pleted t'iv most superb residence on the
Pacific Coait. 1t covers nearly an acre
of ground, and is huge pile of marble,
carved wood and plate glass. The inter
ior is said to be OF Oriental splendor in
I'll its appointments. Ono drawing
oom -alone, with dome-hke calling, will
accommodate more than l 500 guests
The finish of this elegant apartment is in
satin wood and fresco, tho latter of n
beauty that would make tho angels in
heaven turn green with envy. The mar
ri age--ceremony took place in this room,
under the blaze of a $1,000 chandelier,
and beneath the shadow of floral tenn
pie built of exotics from every cline.
Miss Sharon is not regarded as beau
ty, though she is quite pleasing and said
to be very inteligent-i She is of medium
size, demi- blonde in style, and dresses
with exquisite taste and elegance. She
| is member of the Roman Catholic faith,
| and the ceremony was performed by
| Archbishop Alemany, assisted by one or
two clergymen of st. Mary's parish.
The brides trousseau is said to be the

Terrible Fate cfa Nebraska Family |
The following are the details Of q ter
rible calamity that overlook the family |
Of Mr.. William s. Herndon, farmer,
Of Gage county, Nebraska: On Nov
ember 10 he noticed that the prairie,
several miles from his dwelling, was
on fire. A heavy wind springing up
about noon next day, blowing directly |
from the fire toward his house, warned
him that the danger was growing i'm |
minent. His children were now cry
ing through fear, and his wife was i'm
portuning him to make the best OF
time. arrangements were soon made
for the journey, and in two-horse
wagon they started, more than ten
miles in advance of the fire, with every
probability of being able to get out of
its reach. Good time was made by the
team, and not until late in the evening,
when the wind increased in fury, was
there any apprehension of danger.
About dusk the wind increased to
hurricane, and the flames began to ap-
proach them with terrible speed and
awful grandeur, Faster and faster they
came, and Mr.. Herndon says that it
was evident the fire would overlook
them in few moments. What was to
be done under the circumstances was
question that had to be decided
quickly. The horses had now become
unmanageable, and were as likely to
overturn the wagon and start for the
| flames as any other way. A marshy
piece of ground was some two miles
distant, and near this was a small
branch of water, from which, he re-
membcred, he had frequently watered
his horses. This was the only chance
| for life, and hastily leaving his wagon
| and team to their fate, he started with
all haste for the marsh, with his
youngest child, lad of eight years, in
his arms. 1t was struggle for life.
| grand effort to get out of its reach but
| alas, it was unavailing. The little
| daughter was the first that was over
taken, and the mother was prone TO
| stay and give up her life with her dar-
ling, but she kept on, while the flames
were yet more than hundred yards
behind, and little Mary was left upon
her knees, praying that her Heavenly
Father might take her to His bosom,
and save her mother and father anG
little brother from perishing. Death
soon came for her, and not long did it
wait for the little brother and mother.
In few moments the mothers clothes
were on fire, and she was unable to
proceed The father, with desperate
determination to save his little son,
pushed on, hut already his clothes
were on fire, and the little boy, the
pride of his heart, was struggling to
free himself from the tortures, and soon
he was at rest in death. His body hut
hindered the progress of the father, and
to save himself he determind to aband
ON it. Thus freed of all membranes
he succeeded in reaching the stream
After the fire had passed by he retrac
ed his steps and gathered in one place
the blackened and charred remains OF
his late household.
