CHARGE AGAINST A DENTIST.

The husband OF Mrs. Clara Began,
of GreeDyille, n. j., has begun a suit in
the Marine Court against james NJ. Lake

The complaint alleges that on the day
In question Mr.. Began accompanied
her step-mother to the dentists, the lat
ter wishing to have some teeth extracted;
that alter administering chloroform to
the elder lady, Mr.. Lake made improper
proposals to Mrs. Began, and that upon

STEAM HEATING.

A company is trying to get permission
from the New York Board of Aldermen
to lay lines of pipes along the streets of
the city for the purpose of supplying to
the citizens steam for heating and cook
ing purposes as gas and water are now
supplied. There is here good oportun-
ity to apply some of the lessons of exper-
fence. Every city that has permitted the
laying of gas and water pipes by private
corporations has had occasions to regret
that it did not in the beginning take the
business in its own hands, or else secure
to itself the power to regulate charges
made for the service. 1t is not at all i'm
probable that steam heating may become
as common in 1900 as the use of gas to-
day, and when permission is given to lay
the pipes there should be some reserva-
ton of power calculated to protect pub
lie interests. Special privileges of this
kind thould be paid for outright, or else
the community that grants them should
be amply protected from the abuses tc
which they may give rise. Ledger

Ere you fill them full OF flowers;
Walt not for the crowning tuberose
To make sweet the last sad hours;
But while In the busy household band,
Yourdarlings still need your guiding hand
Oh, I'LL their lives with sweetness
Wait not till the little hearts are still.
For the loving look and phrase
But while you gently chide fault
The good deed kinaly praise.
The wOid you would speak beside the bier
Falls sweeter far on the living ear;
Oh, fill young lives with sweetness.
All what are kisses on clay cold lips
To the rosy mouth we press,
When our wee one flies to her mothers
arms,
For loves tenderest caressy
Let never worldly bauble keep
Your heart from the Joy each day should
reap,
Circlins young lives with sweetness.
Give thank each morn for the sturdy boys,
Give thanks for the fairy girls
With dover of wealth like this at home
Would you rifle the earth for pearls
Walt not for death To gem loves crown.
But daily shower life's bles sings down,
And hll young hearts with sweetness.
Remember the homes where the light has

Where the rose has faded away
And the love that glows in youth full hearts
Oh, cherish IL while you may

Where Joy shall bloom through childhood's

EdIsOn's Account OfJersey Mos
QuftOes.

In responding to request made by a
friend TO Edison, that he would tell his
Jersey mosquito stories, Edison said:
ga Jerseyman was so troubled with
mosquitoes, one night, that he went down
into the yard and craw ed under huge
iron caldron. Well, pretty soon he heard
a noise as if boring was going on. He
found they were boring through the cal
dron with their bills. When they had &C
complished this the man got big stone
and clinched their bills"
"Well," said one of the party, "what
then ?''
"Why," answered Edison, "the mos
quitoes flew away with the caldron."
"The next story" he went on, "is about
a drunken man in Paterson, who lay
down by the roadside one Sunday and
went to sleep. While in this position &
Jersey mosquito alighted upon him, and
Jersey policeman, coming along arrest
ed the mosquito for opening bar OF

sls,5OO IN FIVE MONTHS.
II. ]. T. SeheeFs Personal Earn.
ings From His Mine Since July.

The ore from the Scheel mine,
which was worked in the Ramsdell
mill, last week, yielded over 1885
in gold. Only twelve tons we're
worked. The yield was therefore
more than $3.50 per ton. This is
what Mr.. Scheel calls "third-class
ore," and 10 the third lot of ore from
this mine milled during tho past two
months. The FIRST lot was OF two
tons, and yielded $4,000 SO, 900 per
ton; the second lot was Of nine tons,
and yielded $l0,sOO, or an average Of
$1,000 per ton. Totals for the three
lots, twenty-three tons, and $1S,365.
This ore has been extracted from the
mine during the last Eve months,
one man being at work there besides
Mr.. Schesl. This is very splendid
showing, and it is doubtful if any
other district on the Coast can make
a better one. Mr.. Scheel and his as
distant arc still at work, extracting
and sorting ore.

A Shirt-BOSS Killed, and Tive Men
Seriously Hurt in the Silver

About ! o'clock last Saturday
afternoon Joseph Washesha, a shift
boss at the Silver Hill mine, was in.
stantly killed while engaged in low.
ering pump in the incline, near the
11Oo-level, and Samuel Souden, who
was assisting in the work, was badly
injured. The pump had been safely
lowered to within about go feet Of
its destination, and about 40 feet
from the bottom of the incline, when
the chain by which it was held broke,
and it was precipitated to the stump.
Three men were standing on tho
pump at tie time "Charley,"s car
penter, being at the top, Sam. Souden,
the pump-man, in the center, and
Jos. Washesha at the lower end. On
hearing the chain snap the two first
named jumped from the pump, and
thus saved their lives. Washesha
was unable to do this, however, and
went to the stump with the pump.
He must have retained his presence
of mind for some moments after the
accident, as he kept his light in his
hand for sixty or seventy feet after
the pump got loose. The stump hav-
ing been drained, his body was re-
covered by 5 o'clock Sunday morn.

leg and an arm broken, and to have
received severe cut on the forehead.
His remains were taken charge of by
Amity Lodge, No. 4, F. & 4. M, of
which deceased was a member, and
were buried in the Silver cemetery
on Monday, under the joint auspices
Of the Lodge and the Silver City
Miners Union.
Joe Washesha was q native of
Switzerland, aged about IS years,
and unmarried. He has lived in
this city for seven or eight years.
Charley and Souden, the two men
who were on the pump with Wa.
sheshs, ~ related above, escaped by
jumping of. Charley jumped of
as soon as the chain parted, and be.
fore the pump had dropped ten feet;
he escaped with a few bruises. Sou
den, however, could not get off un-
til the pump had got a start of
about twenty-five feet. He was
struck on the hip by block follow
ing the pump, and, besides severe
wound in the thigh, got bad cut
in the head and number of bruises
and cuts on the back and other parts
of his body.
