common complaint of those whose &C.
equations are such as to prevent con
tinuous book perusal. They seem to
think because they cannot devote as
much attention to books as they are
compelled to devote to their avoca-
tons. that they cannot read anything.
But this is n great mistake. 1t isn't
the books We finish at sitting that
always does US the most good. Those
we devour in the odd moments, half a
dozen pages at time, often give
us more satisfaction, and are more
thoroughly digested than those we
make particular effort to read. The
men who have made their mark in the
world have generally been the men
who have in boyhood formed the habit
of reading at every available moment,
whether for FIVE minutes or for five
hours.

Two or more of the surgeons of the
National Surgical Institute, Indianapo-
lis, Indiana, will visit Virginia City.
Nevada, at Friedrich House, Nov. 2Sth
and 29th, 1876. 1t is needless to say
that this Institution has not only a
National but, worldwide reputation,
having successfully treated more cases
OF Cripples, than any similar Institu-
ton in the world. Those suffering
from Piles, F,stula, Paralysis, Curva-
ture of the Spine, Hip or Knee joint
diseases. Crooked limbs, Club feet, or
any bodily defornity, cannot afford to
let this opportunity pass of receiving
treatment at home. The Surgeons will

paratus to treat the most difficult cases
of deformity.

BETS OFF. -- Persons who invested
money on the result Of the Presidential
election, are declaring them off, and
drawing their money by mutual con-
ssut. There is considerable money
locked up in town awaiting the result;
and as there is no likelihood of the
Presidential contest being decided
before February, or, possibly, March,
the better way for those concerned in
bets is to withdraw tho stakes. They
are doing so in the New York pool
rooms, where it is said 100000 were
staked on the result, and Humboldters
had better follow suit.

The Black Hills Fever.

A letter from Wisner, Neb., dated
Feb. %, says Seventeen double
mule-teams, with sixty-eight men, well
equipped, left here to-day for the Black
Hills via the Elkhorn Valley route,
which is, without doubt, the best route
for parties going with teams. Parties
are arriving daily. Another train will
staIt inside of ten days. Smaller bands
staIt daily afoot, hauling hand CARTS"
A Springfield, Dakota, letter says :
Wagon trains of every description are
constantly passing here, bound for the
gold fields. The different parties, as
they pass along, have from one to TWEEN
tytive wagons each. One party camped
in town last night, and we could see the
camp fires of three other trains on
the prairie west of here. Another
Springfield party will get ready to start
at noon to-day, consisting of seven wag-
ons and twenty men. In this party are
some of our best business men, and they
are better fixed and have better teams
and outfits generally than any which has
left here. The Sioux Falls train has
arrived, and will probably wait here and
fell in with our party. The boys are
lubilant, and will see the Hills in q few
days"
A telegram from Yankton, Dakota,
saws: "The excitement about the
Black Hills is increasing. Twenty men
left yesterday, and as many more to-day.

Death In its Most FrightfuI Form.

A death as horrible probably as it is
possible for man to suffer occurred at
Lagrange, Ky, few days ago. The
yictim was John Finnegan, an engineer
on the Short Line Railroad, whom the
company considered one of the best men
at the time. Finnegan was on freight
train, an axle broke and precipitated the
engine and cars down slight embank-
ment. Finnegan was by some means
caught fast by the machinery, and held
so that his companions could not effect
his release. Two streams of hot water
poured upon his face and body from a
broken boiler. No relief could be ex-
tended to the sufferer, and. after most
horrible agony, he became unconscious
and soon died. The skin from his face
and body peeled off before his own eyes.
When physicians from Louisville ar
rived, Finnegan was dying with his
tongue almost dropping off from the
effects of the hot water which had forced
itself into his mouth.

Silver Currency.

The present depreciation in the value
of silver, and the large supply in the
MINIS aud Sub-Treasuries of the coun-
try, says the Washington correspondent
of the New York Tribune, will be taken
advantage of by the Secretary of the
Treasury within short time to carry
out the provisions of the first section of
the Resumption act of the last Congress.
The section in question provides that
the Secretary may, at bis pleasure,
issue silver coins of the value OF
ten, twenty five and fifty cents, and re.
deem an equal amount of fractional
currency of similar denominations. II
is understood that the minis on the Pa
citic coast have been heavily engaged in
coming silver for this purpose for some
time past and that the necessary orders
will be issued to the Sub Treasures with.
in a fortnight to begin redemption. II
is understood that the currency of the
denominations of ten and twenty five
cents will be first redeemed, and that
the orders will embrace so, 900, 900 as q
starting point.

Curious il True.

The cracked bell of the engine S. z.
Chase has been noticed by ali who live
within hearing distance of the Atlantic
and Great Western Railroad. Beneath
harsh and rugged exteriors incidents OF
deepest pathos are hidden. The bell OF
the s. p. Chase is vivid illustration.
Once, and but few weeks since, its
tones, so discordant now, were the
most mellow and musical on the
line. The story is simple, short, and
affecting.
One of its engineers had been charmed
with the vision of a lovely girl clong his
route. He made her acquaintance, anu
there was every prospect OF its happy
and prosperous termination through
life. One day the engineer was gradual
ly Stacking up at the depot of the town
III which she lived. Several unforeseen
events had prevented him from seeing
her for nearly month. A church-bell
of the town was Ginning merrily, and a
wedding party entered the depot. AS
the bride drew near the car, the en-
gineer, who was holding the bell-rope,
suddenly gasped for breath. The hand
holding the rope grew stiff and rigid.
What followed he did not know his
first consciousness was when the fireman
emptied over him bucket of water. II S
right arm fell numb and sore, and when
the train started the bell gave forth that
fiat sound which now distinguishes it
subsequent examination showed it to be
cracked.
Just how it came about has not been
satisfactorily explained. The most
plausible theory, entertained by the
railroad men generally, and 10y the en-.
gineer himself, is that when he saw the
bride, who was the girl previously men
toned, the shock that followed possessed
some of the properties of electricity.
The subtle fluid, by some fortunate mis-.
chance, entered the right side, and IN
stead of rending his heart, which was
not located there, it passed along the
rope to the bell and cracked it. The
numbness of his arm and the sensations,
as he remembers them, 60 to sustain this
hypothesis, which, if correct, suggests
also that love, so long puzzle to the
profoundest philosophers, is made up il
great part of electricity, or of some force
not unlike in its nature. Be that rs il
may, the engineer retains this bell as 6
reminder of his own narrow escape. He
has foresworn faith in women entirely
but the tones of this bell, so hard anC
grating to the ears of others, are never
heard by him without fervent gratitude
when he recalls how nearly he was him
self becoming still more fiat and sense
less. -DdytOn co., Journal.

Still More Shocking.

Recent disclosures in Europe go to
show that the man Thomas, who caused
the death of so many people and the de-
struction of so much property at Bremen
haven, last December, was engaged in
the same horrible business for over nine
years. In the summer of 1866 two En-
glish ships which he had chartered
foundered in mid-ocean, as they were
never heard of again, nor did a soul of
their crew reappear. He got the in.
surance money in London to the amount
of ga, 900, and retired with his plumber
to zerland, wkere he was arrested
on the 9th of December, 1866, on a
charge of fraud upon the insurance
companies, and taken to England, but
never brought up for either examination
or trial, and was soon back in Germany.
Such a course of life as il now shown
to have been led by this man is almost
enough to destroy all confidence IN the
better instincts of humanity.

The statements made in regard to the

as they do out of everything they touch.
They advanced the $4,000, 900 to pay

ing hound, Old Sport, and when the dog
died, the other day, he gave him a de-
cent burial. A casket was provided APP
propriately frescoed with hunting scenes.
Four men were selected as pall-bearers.
After the box had been deposited at the
grave, one of the mourners present read
brief history of the dog and his pedi-
gree, and a quartette of male voices sang
a hymn. After the burial, grave stone
was set up bearing the dogs name and
age, and offering reward for the detec-
ton of the one who poisoned him. Mr..
Cook is going to get bronze cast of the
dog and put it on his grave.
