IS, TENN: WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST a. 1875

When the ship Chaplain ran on the
rock the shock was heard at Fort Cassin,
four miles distant.
San Francisco Bay promises shortly
to be the scene OF somewhat novel con-
test-that is, contest of power, not of
speed. The owners Of the tugs Neptune
and Lookout, propose to lash them fast
to each other, stern to stern, and then
headed in opposite directions, with full
steam on, decide which shall get away
with the other. The match is for $500
a side.
There is a beehive on the eastern
slope Of the San Fernando range, in Los
Angeles county, Cal, which parties have
several times tried to capture, and have
always failed. 1t is in a rift which pene-
trates the rock to depth of l6O feet.
The opening is 30 feet long and II feet
wide, with two passages. The bees come
aud go in solid columns about one foot
in diameter. Efforts have been made to
descend to the store Of honey in the
rock, but the men were invariably driven
back, and one man lost his life. The
hive has been known four years, and it
is estimated that there cannot be less
than eight or ten tops of honey in it.
A man who lives in cabin not far from
the spot gets more honey than his family
can use from a small aperture in the
rock. He has a honey fountain at his
door.

TADDLES' BLuNDER,
BY W. p. G..

Mr.. Taddlcs Of Hartford communicates
only under pledge OF the most profound
secrecy, little affair in which he was
the victim the other night, and, there
fore. it would not be fair to divulge. A
sense of journalistic honor, however, does
not seem to prohibit the mention of the
fact that Mr.. T. is very fond Of cribbage,
and that card.playing is strictly tabooed
On the Taddles premises, as his worthy
spouse is very strict church member.
Therefore Mr.. T. is compelled to seek
more copgenial scenes in which to indulge
in his favorite game. The other day his
old friend Tom B. invited him to
:oin him that evening in pleasant little
card party, and Mr.. Taddles consented,
though with some misgivings as to how
ne should account to his estimable lady
Tor his absence, or contrive to break
through her rule that he shall always be
safe at home not later than nine.
The result of his cogitations was the
concoction Of story to be palned off on
his wife that he was going to New Haven
that afternoon on professional business
which might detain him until the mid.
night train. He joined Tom at tea and
afterward had glorious evening at crib.
bage, starting for homo so as to arrive
there about ten minutes after the train
from New Haven was due ut the Asylum
street depot. The partner of his bosom
hympathized with him as he dilated on
the tediousness Of night journey by
rail, while the artful Taddles chucklcd
quietly as he reflected on the success of
his little trick.
A few days afterward Mr.. Taddles came
home to tea and found Mrs. T. sitting in
the rocking'chair, with. the evening paper
in her hand and with rather peculiar
expression Of countenance, which Tad
dies could not quite understand, but
which seemed to be indicative Of some
thing in the wind. So he sauntered over
toward the window, plunged his hand 8
away down into his pockets and whistlcd
softly to himself as he wondered what
the duce was up, anyway. Mrs. L.
watched him for few moments, and
finally broke the silence with tho inquiry:
Ibid your New Haven business prove
satisfactory. my dear7'
Mr.. T. Yes, my love, better than I
expected"

Mr.. T.: Well, yes. rather SO, my love
And by the way, how fortunate it is that
you women are not required to bother
yourselves with business affairs. 1t
would be such trouble to understand
them. (Mr. T. plunges his hands still
deeper into his pockets and resumes his
Whistling and his thinking.)
Mrs. T. livery ffeezingly, now) Yes. I
suppose so. All, me with sigh! there
are so very, very many things we cannot
quite see through. For instance. the
evening paper says that on the night you
went to New Haven, the midnight train
