The Chinese in California buy their

out my office, has recently imported one.
Sam sent money to his mother, and in

woman as ever saw. l said, "Sam, not

been for long consigned to oblivion. Yet
we are promised both for next winter.

CURRENT PARAGRAPHS.
Incidents and Accidents.

Michael Cassidy, while going up some
office stairs at Chelsea, Mass, the other
day, stepped and fell back, receiving
such injuries that he died in few hours.
a young man named Bond, living in
Aureilus, Mich, recently committed sui
eide by hanging, to avoid the disgrace of
a threatened punishment at the hands of
his father.
H: d: Booth, of Walpole, N. H., was
recently killed by sliding from hay
NOW upon broom-stick, which entered
his body and ended his life almost at the
same moment.
Lawrence Corcoran, of Keokuk, Iowa,
while jumping upon moving train of
cars, lately, missed his footing and fell
directly across the track. Six cars passed
over him, and his body was horribly
mangled.
The steam tug Topham, while tow
ing a raft of logs to Wicasset, Me-, the
other day, exploded her boiler, killing
the fireman and engineer. The fireman's
body could not he found, having been
blown to atoms.
Martin B. Miner, the oldest member
of the Jcrseyville Qll) bar, committed
suicide the other day by taking morphine
The cause assigned for the deed was that
he was getting old, and that the younger
attorneys were supplanting him in prac-
ticc and that he could get nothing to do
In Wyandotte, Kan, the other morn
ing, Miss Mack went into her mothers
bedroom while she was still sleeping to
call her for breakfast. Seeing gun
standing in corner, she thought to
awaken her mother by swapping a cap.
The result was that she blew Oft her
mothers head.
Two boys, aged eight and twelve
years respectively, went out hunting at
Clinton, Mo-, the other day. The eldest
who carried the gun, thoughtlessly and
in fun pointed it at his comrade, who at
tempted to knock it aside, when it ex-
ploded and lodged the whole charge in
the little fellows side, infiicting a hor-
rible and fatal wound.
Charles Crank, colored man, died a
fearful death at Riverhead, Cal, lately.
He was of prodigious size, and in consc-
quencc of a large accumulation of fat
was unable to walk about; for two weeks
before his death he was in a constant
and terrible struggle for breath, the air
passages being nearly closed by the in
creasing fat, and he was at last suffocated
from that cause. For days and nights he
had to remain on his hands and knees, as
that was the only position in which he
could breathe at all, and at last even this
resort failed him. He weighed 400
pounds.
"A woman about thirty years of age,
named Bowers, who resided in the north
east corner of Wes,phalia, arose from
the bed the other night and was absent
so long that her husband became alarmed
and went in search of her. After
searching the premises for some time
without success he happened to look into
a large trough by the side of the house,
used for catching rain-water, when he
discovered something white, and on
further examination found his wife,
dead. 1t appears that she had been sub
ject to spells of insanity. About two
years ago when thus afflicted she
strangled her only child to death.
