piles of slain. Many of those who
dragged it fell by the fire of the gar
rison; but at length it numbered into
the courtyard, and was driven with
its full swing against the door.
Crash! the lock burst and the door

The other day a woman called at Mr..

from Siskiyou county, and then proceeded
10 state the object Of her visit. Her hus-
band was a soldier and had been killed
in the Modoc war. He had $500 on his
person when killed, and that was taken
by the Modocs or somebody else. The
widow has applied to Luttrell, who told
her that the Government would allow the

HIS LOOKS BELIED HIM.-He did not
look like joker, says NJ. Quad. One to
sit and study his face, would have said
that his soul was lost in melancholy that
he didn't care a cent whether the sun set
at noon or staid up till Z O'Clock. He
entered the ladies' sitting-room at the
Central Depot, walked up TO woman
whose husband had left the room about
ten minutes previously, and calmly
inquired;
Madam, your husband went out to
see the river, didn't he ?"
"Yes-why ?" she asked, turning pale
in an instant.
"He was a tall man, wasn't he ?"
"He was" she answered, rising up and
turning paler.
"Had red hair ?"
"He had-oh, what has happened ?"
Weighed about one hundred and
eighty pounds ?"
"Yes-yes. Where is he-where is
my husband !" she exclaimed.
"Couldn't swim, could he ?"
"He's drowned-my dear husband is
drowned !" she walled.
Had a silver watch chain ~ contin-

"Where is my husband ?" she family
gasped.
Don't get excited, madam. DID your
husband wear gray suit ?"
"Ye8-oh my Thomas ! Thomas!
"And stoga boots ?"
"Let me see him-let me see him ?"
she cried.
"Come this way, madam, but do moi
get excited. There is your husband oveI
across the street at that peanut stand"
"Why, yes, that's him; that's my
husband !" she exclaimed joyfully. 81
thought you said he was drowned"
"No, madam, / did not. saw him
buying peanuts and | believed Tiny duty
TO say TO you that peanuts are not healthy

and chewed her parasol and stared after
him as if he were a menagerie on wheels.

among the doctors Of Richmond, Va.
One Of them is charged with having caused
tie death of female patient by opium
poisoning, and the contention has waxed
so fierce that a challenge to mortal COM
bat has passed, and there is prospect of
death by blood letting. There should be
n better way than that to settle the dis
pute-a method at once more scientific
an1 sensible. Let the doctor who pre-
scribed the dose take it himself If he
dies, it is proof that he was at fault, and
it serves him right; if he survives, let him
double the dose for his adversary, and
thereby prove TO the latter's satisfaction
that he knew what he was about.

There is still statute providing that
"whoever travels on the Lords day, ex-
cept from necessity or charity, shall be
punished by fine not exceeding $40 for
every offence" This statute has been a
dead letter for years, and the only service
it ever renders is in the protection of rail
roads and other corporations. No dam
ages can be recovered in Massachusetts
for injuries received on highways and
railroads on Sundays, unless it can be
shown that the travelling was necessary
