Captain Metcalfe, an aeronaut attact

Captain Metcalfe, an aeronaut attach
ed to Sauger's circus, had a narrow es-
cape at Portsmouth, England, the 9TH
er day. He ascended above in a new bal
loon, and when about mile and half
from the starting point, the balloon
dropped into the water, and drifted rap
idly toward the open sea. The accident
having been observed by two fishermen
they followed the balloon, which was
dragged through thr water with great
velocity. When about five miles out to
sea, the fishermen called to Metcalfe to
jnmp out of the car, they being afraid to
approach the balloon, lest their boats
should be swamped. Unable to swim
the aeronaut hesitated, but it being his
only chance, he obeyed the call, and
was picked up in an exhausted condition
by the men in the boats.

The Agriculturist gives the following

The Agriculturist gives the following
advice to farmers who, next to fishermen
are apt to get their boots wet through
"When the boots are taken of, fill them
quite full with dry oats. This grain has
a great fondness for damp, and will rap
idly absorb the last vestige of it from
the wet leather. AS it takes up the mois-
ture it swells and fills the boots with a
tightly fitting last, keeping its form good
and drying the leather without harden
ing it. In the morning shake out the
oats and hang them in bag near the
fire to dry, ready for the next wet night,
draw on the boots and go happily about
the days work"

At our primary election. held last Sal

At our primary election, held last Sat
urday, one of our sturdy sons of the
mountains came into town to exercise
his right as free sovereign of a free
State, and cast his vote for the man of
his choice. He approached the polls
and handed in his ticket "What is the
name?" asked one of the Judges, "John-
son." was the reply. ayes, but what is
your other name?" The mountaineer
became indignant, and declared he had
but one name, evidently thinking the
official took him for a repeater. "Yes,
but what is your Christian name?" said
the Judge. "My Christian name," re-
piled the bold backwoodsman. "Why,
If you want to know that, why, 1 am
Baptist" And so the man and vote was
registered johnson the Baptist. ."-T'us-

That was a rather unpleasant situation
in which Moses NJ. Stearns, a diver,
found himself in Boston Harbor, the
other day. He had gone down in his
armor, when vessel near him gave a
lurch and he was thrown to the bottom
of the sea, while the tube for supplying
him with air became SO entangled as to
be useless. He, however, seized the tube
and hauled himself to the surface, just
in time to save his life.

cinnati for q public park, the money
paid for the land amounting 10 about
s5OO,0CO. The ground belonged to a
Mr.. Burnet and the wife Of the Hon
WIS Groesbeck. In the course Of
time runners gained currency that mon
ey had been used to induce the city
council to buy the property, and it was
strongly suspected that some OF the
coucilmen had taken brides. These
rumors led to an investigation, and the
investigation resulted in the disclosure
that Burnet and Mr.. Grosebeck had
each promised $12, 500 to third party
il the council should determine 10 take
the property at the valuation they had
put upon it, and that after the transact
ton was completed the money was
paid. Mr.. Groesbeck in his testimony
disclalmed any intention to do wrong to
the city on the contrary, he wanted to
benefit it, and if wrong had been do ne
he wanted 10 rightit. II for any con'

should recede from the contract. he Is
