c INTELLIGENCE.


Yesterday afternoon, when the Of
ticers OF election in the Second Eureka
precinct had finished canvassing the
votes, G. G. Wallace, Republican can.
diiate for long term Senator, entered
= protest against certain Democratic
tickets being included in the count, be-
cause they bore at their head the rep
ressutation OF an American eagle. HIS
objection, we presume, was based
ppOn the ground that tie cut was dis
ernible on tho outside of the ballot,
Consequently was contrary to the stat
ute in such cases made and provided.
The law specifies that all election
tickets shall be printed on book pa
per, but a large number of ltepub-
lican tickets, printed in Philadelphia,
on fiat-cap paper, WAS voted in the
First and and Second precincts, tn
which the Democratic candidates had
not thought of making any objections,
but when Mr.. Wallace evinced so
tenacious a disposition for q strict com.
plisnce with the law, X. Sadler, Score
iary vt the Democratic County Central
COMMITTEES, entered a protest against
the counting of tho flat.cap tickets.
There were, perhaps, a dozen OF the
eagle tickets voted in the town, while
nearly \ hundred Of the sleek" bal
lots we're deposited in The boxes in the
two precincts. The latter are easily
distinguished from the book paper
tickets, and the best legal authorities
In the town are of the opinion, ii the
matter comes before the courts, that
they will be ruled out, which would
result in the election of the entire
Democratic county ticket. So long as
there is no wilful violation Of the Ia W,
and NJ evidence Of injury to any per-
son. We do not believe it to be sub.
servient to public interest to defeat the
will Of the people by placing too close
aconstruction upon the law in such a
case; and for ourselves we would lose
both Of our big toe nails before we
would accept AN office under such cir.
cumstances; but the Democratic can
didaies doubtless consider 'what is
sauce for the goose Is sauce for the
eander." and rs the issue has been
made, have resolved to push it through
to the end.

Getting Ready for 1t.

The New York Sun is evidently get
ting ready for an item. It describes a
locality on an adjacent railroad which it
says els the most probable place for the
occurrence of the next cne," and says
that at the spot ia dozen COWS and one
horse are pastured in lot unfenced and
open to the road. The horse is lame
and does not move quickly, and he has
got accustomed to the whistle of the
locomotive, SO that it has little terror
for him. The train generally comes
nearly to standstill before he gets off
the track. After he gets little more
familiar with the cars, it will probably
be necessary to run over him as the only
way of getting rid OF him. Journals
which desire to be ahead with the news
will do we'll, therefore, to keep one re-
porter stationed at this point. He could
occupy the intervening time before the
accident in interviewing the occupants
of neighboring houses, writing down
their names, and ascertaining what mum.
Der of the injured passengers they could
respectively accommodate. And as it is
part of reporters business in such
case to state the value of the property
destroyed, he might have preliminary
appraisement of the old horse and the
COWS, and also find out the cost of the
locomotive and the cars liable to be
smaahod."

Dangerous SOap,

We have remarked of late, the Scie,a-
tifc american says, the introduction
into tLo market, under high sounding
names, of various strong potash combi.
nations intended for laundry and cleans
ing purposes. One Of the preparations,
which appears to contain more caustic
potash than other ingredient, lately
caused the death of child who acci-
dentally ate little of it; and we have
found the same stuff strong enough to
remove old, hard paint from wood work
when merely wetted by the same and
allowed to rest thereon for perhaps an
hour or two. We advise our readers to
let such preparations severely alone:
they are ruinous to clothes, and, except
to cleanse kitchen floors or other grease
soaked places, should not be used.
Even the ordinary low grade soaps are
heavily charged with soda and impuri-
ties, which, the manufacturers say, they
are obliged to use, in order to hold their
own with fraudulent dealers who adul-
terate still more heavily; and these soaps
are also highly destructive to fabrics.
1t is much better economy to purchase q
good quality, even superior quality of
white soap for household purposes; for
the extra cost of the soap will, in the
end, be more than saved in the lessened
wear Of clothes, of oilcloths, and Of
paint. It is hardly necessary to add
that strong aikali soaps should never be
used on the skin, as their effe is corro-
sive and harmful. The object of using
soap for the toilet is simply to overcome
the natural oil which exudes from the
body, and render it possible for the
water to combine Herewith; and very
little of the mildest soap is ample for
this purpose.

A PICTURESQUE Failure.

When the Nicolai railway was con-
structed, in 1918, from st. Petersburg
to Moscow, the work was done under
contracts with American engineers, and
the cars and engines were supplied from
Baltimore by the famous establishment
of the Winans Brothers. The Russian
priests oppose every modern innovation,
and of course they were "down on the
railway. When the road was opened
they determined to stop it, and SO they
went in force to point on the road and
set up holy picture to stop the new
work of tho devil. The train came
slowly along and the engineer seeing the
picture standing on the track thought
there must be man behind it, and so
came to halt. The assembled multi
tude raised a shout and the priests
called out that the saint was all-powerful
and would prevail against wickedness.
The officer in charge of the train came
out.and took survey of the situation.
Then he told the engineer to run back
a quarter Of q mile and bring the train
to halt. The shouting was redoubled
and the priests we're in the most rap
turous delight. But their exultation
was soon changed to grief, as the mas
ter of ceremonies told the engineer: !:
"Put on all steam and 60 ahead without
regard to consequences" The engine
went ahead and down fell the picture,
torn and crushed by the wheels of the
locomotive. Modern civilization was
triumphant. and the priests and their
followers no longer shouted in triumph.

A New Enemy to the Corn.

The Reading (Penn.) Times says: A
new enemy to the growing crop of corn
has been discovered this spring, which
is committing considerable destruction
in some sections of the country. 1t is a
peculiar black worm which can scarcely
be crushed on the loose earth, as it is
encased in suit of armor difficult to
break. They operate in the corn hills
by eating off the young plants. As
many as ten or twelve worms are some
times found in one hill. The cutworm
has hitherto been a great annoyance,
but this new pest is said to be even more
destructive. In some townships farm
ers are busy replanting cornfields that
have been thus devastated. Paris green
has been found to be as efficacious in
exterminating these worms as it is in de-
stroying the potato bug. Powdered
white hellebore is also said to be very
efficacious.

How the Emperor Climbed.

The janitor who had charge of Bunker
Hill monument. arriving at about half
past seven in the morning to open the
premises, found two strangers in wait
ing. Ono, tall, gray bearded man in q
slouch hat, asked if they could ascend
the monument.
eyes," said the custodian, "you can
for twenty-five CENTS" holding out his
hand.
The stranger produced the money.
and the custodian unlocked the door
and forthwith commenced sweeping out,
raising a cloud of dust, and paying no
especial attention to his visitor, who was
looking about him curiously, until, half
choked with dust, he inquired if these
were the steps9"
"Yes, all right, 60 ahead, go right up
till you got to the top"
The visitor and his companion did as
they were bid, and stayed some half an
hour enjoying the beautiful panoramic
view from the summit, after which they
descended, and were quietly walking
away when they were hailed by the GUS
todian with:
"H'yar. just write your names in this
book all the visitors who go up the
sign their names here"
Tho gray bearded man laughed and
signed his name, and the two departed.
The custodian never looked at the
book, but some hours afterward was
by one of the officers of the
association who CHANGED to
come in, asking him, in the most agi-
tated manner, when Dom Pedro, the
emperor of Brazil, had been there9
"Has MT been here at al)," was the
reply.
"Has MT been here Why, here is
his signature on your visitors book.
What does this mean2
"What !" said the custodian, rushing
up to the volume. "Why, good gra
cious That was written by tall man
with slouch hat"
And SO it was but the tall man was
the emperor of Brazil, and this was the
way he assembled Bunker Hill monument,

A DesperadO'S Last Words.

Bill Lee, a noted desperate, was hung
at Oquawka, ILL.,, for one of the most
brutul crimes ever committed. His
courage left him on the gallows and he
had to be supported until the drop fell.
His last words were "Young men,
you see me before you in the prime of
life, and hope you will be warned in
time. When drinking remember me,
and prepare to meet me high up in
heaven by the dazzling throne. God
knows there was no murder in my heart.
Whisky and women brought me here
not good women. Let my fate be a
warning to all young people," As the
rope was placed around his neck tears
rolled down his cheek, and he said:
Remember, young man."

California Grain Supplies.

A prominent grain operator gives the
surplus of wheat in California for ship
ment this season as $50, 600 short tons,
exceeding by 200, 900 tons the surplus of
the crop Of 1876. The yield is unusually
heavy in all parts of the State, and in
quality the grain is the best ever har-
vested in the State. He gives the price
for July delivery alongside the ship as
ninety six cents per bushel. He antici-
pates no difficulty in procuring labor for
harvesting the crop nor in procuring
means for harvesting it from the in
terror unless the bulk of the crop is held
until late in the season, which would
probably overtax the railroad facilities.
The tonnage of grain here and known to
be on the way is 450, 900 tons. Capacity
enough is expected between now and
December to take all that is offered.
The surplus of barley is estimated at
rs, 600 tons, at fifty cents alongside ship.

Dear little EdnAs wornout shoe
There Ia tho hole her too popped through!
Tiny shoe-with tho knotted string
Quaint little precious, speaking thing
Tolls Of her 'witch,ng joyous glee-
Her winning ways-and young years three.
Her sunlight hair-a halo shons
Soft eyes Of blue-a glory her own!
On my heart hor fairy feet fall
Still hear her gontle voice call
On oil our names-deAr little child
Wringing our hearts, e'en when she smiled
Husl,d tho music Of her sweet song
Which prattled JOY, tho whole day long,
Closed the eyes, 80 lovingly true,
Asleep In death, hidden from view,
She whom We Watched, mid hopes and fears
A mem'ry now--enshrined In tears.
Her little shoe talisman seems
Weaving tender, enhancing dreams-
Wherein see her angel face,
Feel her arms in close embrace
Her baby kiss aud clinging love
Winging my soul to spheres above!
