some weeks past been in the employ
OF Mr.. Gottlieb Seifried, the butcher
suddenly disappeared with a horse
and saddle belonging to Mr.. Seifred
and gold watch and some money,
the property of Mr.. Jacob Kreb.
At1davits were made before Judge
Maher and pursuit of the fugitive,
who was easily tracked down the
river, was begun. Deputy Sheriff d.
Israel took the cars for Hahnville. and
upon arriving at that place and
finding by inquiry that the fleeing
culprit had not Jet made his appear
ance there, the deputy procured a
horse and started up the river. He
had proceeded but a few miles when
he met Wolffrome in charge of Mr..
Dominique Varrianni, who had started
on horseback from Donaldsonville in
the morning and come up with his
prisoner only short time before the
arrival of the Deputy Sheriff. The
party took passge ON the Mary Ida,
upward bound, but the boat struck a
drift log near st. John Court House
and was disabled, hence they re-

Last Monday noon, as the hack from
Mitchell's stable was in front of the
residence of Judge Marks, where Mr.,
Mitchell had just assisted lady pas
senger from the depot to alight. the
horses started suddenly and ran with
great speed as far as Racke's tin shop.
near the front street. Here the ami
mails veered towards the banquette.
and the tongue of the. hack struck a
shade tree with fearful force, smashing
the strong vehicle as if it was PASTE
board, throwing Mr.. Mitchell's little
son, the only occupant, violently to
the ground, breaking his left leg be-
tween the ankle and knee. The brave
little fellow, who had shown no sign
OF tear while the horses were plunging
madly up the street, was taken home |
IN an nsensible state, and DR.. Mccall
iiard summoned to set the broken
limb. This operation was successfully |
performed and the young patient is
now doing finely. When the horses
started to run, Mr.. Mitchell sprang
.or the reins, but being compelled to
step around an intervening tree, was
100 late to reach them, and pursuit of
L n
he flying vehicle was fruitless. Mr.,
md Mrs. Mitchell are to be warmly
congratulated upon the escape of their
fright little son, which can not be
designated otherwise than providen-
ial.

The ancient destroyer with glass and
scytbe never wearies in his work OF de.
Btruction, and sooner or later we must
all succumb to the ravages of Time.
A gray hair here and there, perhaps,
first admOnishes us that his fell hand is
upon US; a wrinkle steals across our
brow and tarries there, like ripple
frozen upon the waters surface; the
Vigor OF youth deserts our limbs, and we
!eel for truth that the victory OF Time
is complete.
Some there are who defy his power
and endure his whacks for an astonish-
ing period, but by and by they droop
like tough mullen stalks before the latest
frost and accept the common fate Of man
kind. There have been many wonder
full cases of longevity brought to notice
In this country, some OF them being al
most beyond the bounds of credibility,
but the most remarkable of them, no
doubt, have been found among our
Golored fellow citizens.
Not few of these have had their
origin, very probably, with persons who,
being ignorant entirely of their real
ages, have not hesitated to draw on
their imagi ations for some extremely
exaggerated ones. As this occurs with
Bther sex it seems matter Of some sur
prise that they who so earnestly desire
to seem younger than they are, in their
sarlier years, should be just as ambitious
TO appear older in advanced age.
The aborigines of our country, who
led lives that were health-inspiring
and full of outdoor exercise, have not
succeeded in staying the advances Of
time any more effectually than have the
effeminate children Of civilization, still
we occasionally get q glimpse of one who
has outlived the days Of his usefulness
and unnecessarily prolonged his de-
parture to the happy hunting grounds.
Not long since an Indian woman died

in Chicago at the ripe age of one hum
dred and ten. She was the last OF long
line o chiefs aud warriors, and a relic
of the tribes upon whose broad domains
that city now stands. OAe hundred
years ago she was Baptized in the Cath
olic faith under the name Of Angelique,
by the Jesuits of Mackinac. she was
the daughter of Chippewa, and the
sister OF the celebrated chief Chee-chee-
biE-qua, who ruled the confederate
tribes OF the Ottawas, Chippewas and
Pottawattamies, whose lands were
bounded by the Ohio, the Mississippi,
Lake Superior and the Wabash. ...
AT the time OF her death she resided
upon portion of the reservation granted
in the treaty OF 1882. which still remains
in the possession o! her descendants.
Altogether she was woman Of most
remarkable history, and the sole repre-
sentative OF time and people which
belonged exclusively to the past. One

THE deputies of The German ReicAs-
Tag have been trying to lignten the bur
den of imperial legislation by intro
1ucing som ething similar to the English
ministerial whitebait dinner. Instead
Df fish, wine is the principal fea
ture of the testivity. The originators
Of the feast called it q "Neinprobe,"
and invited contributors from all parts
of the Empire to send specimens of their
wines. At late meeting minute
bottle of 'the most wonderful wine in
the world" was placed upon each table.
1t was a specimen OF the Rosenwein
from the Rathskelle of Bremen-the
property of the Municipal Council OF
that city. 1t was put in store in 1924.
The present cost OF this wine is
somewhat high according to the figures
given. A bottle would only amount to
2O2 1872, ,70S gold thalers and "a groschen;
a single glass, SO, 597, ,s3S thalers and 80
groschen, and single drop would come
to SO 597 thalers 60 groSchen. The ratio
at which age improves wine borders. on
the marvellous.
