noon were in the town at Brighton, ri

yards; all three were shooting "Creed-

the target the ground gradually ascen-

good one, firmly fixed in true bounds

thirty feet, made fine point tor OBJ

looking through the glass to mark a
shot of one of his companions, ex-
claimed that he saw the ball as it sped

and he also saw the ball almost as it

Pioneer Fun.
A STYLISH DANCE IN THE EARLY DAYS
OF COLORADO.

The first settlers of Boulder came
here in 1858. In 1859 quite a num-
Der came, and some sixty log houses
were erected before 1860 stepped in.
Of these log houses but few remain.
Christmas, 1855, saw jovial crowd
of dancers in one of these houses,
windowless, we believe, at that time.
The hardy pioneers when after fun
had it. On the night in question,
about two hundred sons of toll and
seekers of gold and their fortunes,
and seventeen ladies had assembled
at the above named place to partake
ola frontier terpsichorean. Msrinus
u, Smith was then one of the beaus

OF a pair OF pants made out of seam

In town had an elegant dress made
out Of -four sacks, also colored by the
aid of logwood. There were few
white shirts in the neighborhood
then, most Of the pioneers wearing
WOODEN or flannel ones. A man with

Aged % years.
This brief announcement tells its own
sad story to those who knew the lowell
ness and worth of her whose death it
records, and tells it far more eloquently
than thoughts and words poured out in
elegaic strains could do it
The life and light of her home and the
darling of her parents and brothers, she
left that home a few months since, to
gladden. the heart and brighten the home
of him who had wooed and won her.
Her life of wifchOod, though short, was
full of such sweetness as loveliness like
hers alone can bring as an ingredient
thereto, and the aching void left 10 the
husbands heart testifes to the fact, that
she completely fills it. Her maternity
was never proved on earth. Her. little
boy lived but few short hours, and in a
few days his mother followed him. Both
now are united in Paradise. Carried by
her husband to his home and among
strangers, her amiability and sweetness
Of character during her short sojourn
there, won the devoted affection Of q
cherished circle of friends who, in her
last illness and around her grave, testified
that devotion. and by their sympathy

how they loved her, whom they mad 80

her husband, which gave promise of 50
much future happiness, protests now by
it's closed portals, and hushed and silent
halls, against being weaned from the woe
and gloom which the shadow of her death
has cast upon it.
| But she was Christian. Her assn.

of God. she awaits husband, father, moth

A MOVING DEATH ScENE.-Ons of
the most dramatic situations in
Romeo and Juliet is the combat
between the love stricken Romeo and
Tybalt. This ends, it will be re-
membered, by a slashing rapier fight
between the two, wherein the en-
ragged scion of the Montagues splits
his enemy. through the diaphragm.
Last night the part of Tybalt was
assigned to one of the best members
of Mr.. Elsler's company. He re-
ceived his death wound, and arching
his spine, and throwing out his man
ly bosom, he fell upon the stage dead
to all intents and purposes. The
curtain was rung down and the huge
beam at the bottom descended until
within few inches of the dead Ty-
balt's head, when it was found that
the corpse lay directly beneath. This
was discovered just in time, else had
the scene shifter allowed the curtain
to come down on the actors head he
would have been afflicted with a
headache, If not with q cracked era
mum. The situation was an awk-
ward one, and the artist at the curtain
windlass ordered "Tybalt's'' corpse
to "get out ofthat" and roll over
The corpse made a frantic effort to
roll over, but failed, and then with a
look of intense disgust upon his
features, arose, went q few steps to
the rear, and smothed his features in
death, as before. The very fact that
the actor had gone through the mo-
ton of dying in such truthful style
made the contretemps the more strik-
ing, and while many sympathized
with the discontinue, the greater
part of the audience burst out in un-
comfortable laughter, such as no stu
died scene in the play could posi-
bly, have evoked.-[Columbus, (O.)

THE GOVERNOR OF VIRGINIA.
His Remarks in His Inaugural Address
on the Subject of Repudi-
- Cation.
NOBLE APPEAL TO THE PEOPLE OF
VIRGINIA TO STAND BY ITS
STATE DEBT.

There is no foolishness about Gov.
Halliday, of Virginia. In his Inaug-
ural Address at Richmond, be made
one of the most stirring appeals to
the people to spurn from them the
idea of repudiating the State debt
Referring to the discussion touch
ing the settlement of the debt, here
is what he said:
"There is time enough in the pre-
sent session. But woe to the man
who in that settlement betfays the
trust or sells the honor of Virginia.
It were better for that man had he
not been born. For when the smoke
of the excitement has foated away,
retribution, swift and sure, will fol-
low like an avenging Nemesis. l
have an abiding faith. Virginia has
tided over greater troubles before
She will triumph now. Count the
means to pay her debts, and prove
the inability of Virginia to meet
them, and there will be no trouble in
effecting a settlement with her cred
itors, honorable and satisfactory to
both. The heart of the world beats
in sympathy for her. Her heart has
ever beat in sympathy for whatever
is noble and true in the world. If
war, drouth and flood have stripped
her of her means, neither one nor all
have stripped her of her good name,
and when in her poverty she gives
what she can, no more will be asked.
But if she is able to meet her liabil-
tiles no adjustment is wanted or
needed. BY economy, retrenchment
and self sacrifice she ought to pro-
vide for them, for so soon as these
are manifested new wealth will flow
into her lap and lift the burden
This has been the experience of 9th
er States with heavier debt and less
resources. / know it will be the ex-
perience of Virginia. With such
spirit moving her people, who can
predict the future of the old Com
monwealthp Those very lines of
communication which this debt was
instrumental in building will be fill
ed with fresh vigor, and will bring
forth with rejoicing the untold wealth
now hidden and undeveloped. A
new life will strengthen the people,
stirred by patriotism; the genius of
Virginia will rouse herself from her
slumber like another morn risen on
midnoon,' and her latter day will be
more glorious than her former
There was time (has that time
gone?) when to be q citizen of Vir-
gina was a passport wherever he
might travel. Shame never mantled
his cheek, but only the glow of pride,
which made him feel like the Roman
in sight Of the Eternal City, that to
be a Virginian was greater than to
be king. May God give us strength
to aid in holding up this bright
ideal! Let US rise and quit our
selves like men, and initiating the
virtues Of an illustrious ancestry, be
earnest and true"
That does not smack much of re-
pudiation, and the people of Virgin
ia, We have no doubt, are with their
Governor.
