TOMBSTONE ToucHn.-How beautiful,
how noble is the poets art when used
TO sooth the mourning heart! One oil
the sweetest and tenderest specimens OF
slesiac verse has been composed by an
English gentleman who accidentally got
the remains Of his four wives somewhat
mixed during their removal to a new
burial ground. He was determined, was
Mr.. Sparks. that there should DO no
mistake as to the various Mrs. Sparkses'
last abode; and calmed his wounded
spirit and displayed strict truthiulnsss

FROM SAN DIEGO, A
Apache Outrasss-Assassinsted and
Robbed.

SAN DrEoo, December9 .-The Union's
letter from Ures, Sonora, November 9th,
contains accounts Of Apache outrages.
It states that about the first instant, an
old man was killed ear Gaucherrera,
and his wife taken captive. In Bae-
adeharschi the people are hourly eI-
pecting an attack from the Apache In
dams. The Preiee. has sent q small
force to relieve them and act on the de-
f~snsivs. but not enough to punish the
Indians. In Hermosilla the report Is
that 800 Apache warriors are away from
Chircahua, and probably in this State.
Mr.. A. q. Cavillas and Thos. McMahen
were as~sassinatsd ON the road from Her

Life-SaYing Apparatus.

Among the many varieties of hfe-sav-
ing apparatus invented during the last
few years for use on the sea, two RATS,
known respectively as the Monitor and
Ammen, have recently received especial
attention. The Monitor Raft consl-t'
Of two strong vulcanized rubber cylin-
ders, % feet long by 26 inches diameter,
covered by stout linen canvas or duck,
to sustain the pressure, and supported
by a wooden frame, fitted with seven
thwarts Or seats, and cushions filled
with cork shavings. The frame, thwarts,
&C., are SO arranged that when folded
up the raft occupies space Of about
nine by two feet. The cylinders are in
fated by bellows at one end. The pro-
prietors set it's buoyancy at five tons,
the time required to initiate it is from
four to six minutes, and it weighs $50
pounds. One of the most interesting
experiments with raft of this construc-
ton was made in January, 1867, when
| ffty-thre soldiers and all their equip
ments, and four days rations, an officer
| and four seamen, were landed from a
vessel anchored three miles from shore,
pulling with four oars at the rate Of tive
miles an hour, and shipping no water.
The Ammen Raft is fitted with oars,
mast, and sail. It consists of two CT
gar shaped cylinders made of cedar, put
together in slaves like a cask. These
are hoped with galvanized iron and
sustained in position by system Of
framework Of light wood, SO arranged
that the whole thing can be readily tax
en- apart and put together in a few min
utes, leaving the cylinders intact and in
form to throw over in case large buoy
should be wanted This raft is put on
board of many United States vessels.

A Rascally Russian Sutler.

During the Crimean campaign one of
the principal regimental canteens in the
Russian army was suddenly closed in
the faces of officers and men without
notice or warning, Prince Gortchakoff,
furious, rode up to the purveyor and de-
manded on explanation, whereupon the
latter replied that, instead Of yielding
him, as was commonly supposed, EGO OF
clear daily profits, his business was
landing him in downright ruin, mas
much as the greater part Of his receipts
consisted of false bank notes. The
General, at his wits end, tele-
graphed the Emperor, and on receiving
a reply told the purveyor that if he
would open his canteen the spurious
notes in question should be cashed as if
they were genuine at the bank. Armed
with this assurance the purveyor brisk
ly resumed his business, and labored in
his vocation with such zeal and vigi-
lance that at the end of the war he had
the satisfaction of being able to present
for payment to the Imperial Bank e4O,
900 worth of counterfeit paper, scarcely
any of which had really been received
by him in the course of his dealings
with the army.-Londo7a ZEnats.

Two Wives of Bigamist I'm lite Against
Him.

It is not often that two wives of q
bigamist unite against him, and, when
they do, there must be trouble. One
Wilbur Fiske Dale, of Brooklyn, how
ever, has the distinction of having we'd
ded four wives, and experienced no less
than six marriage ceremonies. The
first wife he married in 1856 in Boston,
and deserted her year Afterwards. He
married the second in Brooklyn in 1861.
and deserted her also. Next year he
married a third in Vermont, who de-
serted him by dying, and completed his
quota by marrying fourth in the Far
West, and abandoning her when he
grew weary. In 1866 he returned to
wife No. 1, who was then living in Bos-
ton, and with much skill induced her to
receive him once more. She did SO on
the condition that second marriage
should occur. She had heard of his
frequent marriages, but, feeling fiat
tered at his return to her, willingly for
gave him. In 1870 he again abandoned
his first wife, and in 1878 was married q
second time to his second. Last July
he left her again and wandered away
into bachelordom His second wife fol-
lOWeu uIH1, dllC, SeCuLiuS d WalIdAo, III
trusted an officer with his arrest. But
Wilbur Fiske Dale had escaped too
many women to be captured by an Off
Ger. When the policeman entered his
room, Dale left his apartment by the
window, fell thirty feet, broke two or
three ribs, and was picked up senseless
and taken to hospital. He had barely
recovered when he again lodged the
police by escaping from the hospital.
Anxious for sympathy, with smiling face
and neatly-dyed mustache, he presented
himself to wife No. 2. She gave the
word to a lady friend, and, an officer
being procured, William Fiske Dale was
taken before q Police Justice. Both
wives made common cause against him,
and his fate was apparently sealed. His
personal safety, one would naturally
suppose, could only be assured by the
strong walls of a cell. With two wives
on his track, and third likely to ap-
pear at any moment, his chances Of pre-
serving a whole skin without some sort
OF protection appear small.

A Natural Artesian Well in an Open
Prairie.
From the Pittsfeld In.) Old Flag.

From the Pittsfield (II.) Old Flag.
Three miles southwest of New Can
ton, IN this county, can be seen one of
tne most wonderful sights ever witness
ed. On the land of Shaw and Ruper' +,
known as the northwest quarter of sec
ton 20, of township south, 6 west, is
found what has been known for years
as the Salt Spring. This spring rises
out of level prairie, and few weeks
since the locality gave no indications
that you were approaching one of the
greatest wonders Of this country. The
spot has long been the resort of wild
game and domestic animals, who came
to drink it's saline waters, which never
go dry OF freeze, winter Or summer A
few weeks since the proprietors, who had
long conceived that there was some IN
developed secret connected with the
spring, sunk an iron pipe some forty
feet down the mouth of it, and im1ne-
diately it began to throw out, from the
upper part of the pipe, water to the
height Of twenty-threa feet. 1t re-
manned for few days attracting large
numbers of visitors, who came to see
and wonder. Some days after six more
pipes of the diameter of an inch and a
half were driven into the spring-the
longest pipe about fifty-fve feet-and
such cascade of water was never seen
before on level prairie. Some of the
pipes have covers perforated with small
holes, and the jetsof water thrown from
these form, in the sunshine, beautiful
rainbows. For ten feet Or more in every
direction, and fifteen to twenty feethigh,
the white spray rises, gliters and show
ers around, forming q pool thirty feet
in diameter, clear, hmpid and cool.
In clear day the column of wa
ter can be seen for miles, and on
cloudy, drizzling day l could see it
over two miles. [ assure your readers
that it is sight worth seeing, and no
prettier for pleasure party can be
found. The proprietors intend planting
groves and shade trees, and the spot
will then become one of the pleasantest
in the country for picnic and pleasure
parties. There is not day now when
the spring is not visited by dozens. and
on Sunday there are two to four hun
dred persons, as am informed, on the
ground. ..'
am not proposing to give a full or
accurate description Of this wonderful
curiosity, but only SO much as to call
attention to the spring, that others may
go and see for themselves, and be con-
vinced, that Pike county has at least
one sight worth seeing. j. S. IRWIN.

Strange Scene in an English Theatre.

An extraordinary incident, says the
London Echo of October 8, occurred
last night in the theatre at Manchester.
Mr.. Sims Reeves was playing Captain
Macheath in "The Beggar's Opera, %
and the piece proceeded pretty smooth
ly down to the end of the third act. At
this point, when the associates of Cap
tain Macheath should rush on the stage
and triumphantly announce his re-
prieve, the supers were not forthcoming.
Mr.. Reeves advanced to the foot-lights,
and, attributing the hitch to Mr. Hen
RVS mismanagement,s said he was never
so disgraced in his life. He waited
quietly until the supers, one by one,
had come on the stage, and then said to
the audience who cheered him loudly:
Ladies and gentlemen, you should
call for the manager. This was done
amid great uproar, but Mr.. Henry did
not appear. Mr. Reeves then said:
We will not finish the opera, . where
upon the audience dispersed in the
greatest disorder, and freely expressed
disapprobation of the management.
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1874-11-04

who might pursue him, fed on until he
was captured.
The court, and even the prosecuting
attorney, deemed his story plausible,
and considered that there were mitigat-
ing circumstances to be taken into con-
sideration in awarding the penalty Of
his crime. AS he was minor, his pun
lshment was fixed at two and half
years imprisonment. Had he been of
age, double that term would have been
given him.
In all its aspects this is one of the
remarkable cases upon the record Of
modern criminal prudence.
