Those ALIASES.

Several Of the artists under the employ
of Edgar Williams & Co, are now engaged
in sl1etehing different farm-houses in this
county for lithographic views in their atlas
OF Linn county. OF course those views
cost something, but our rich farmers can
well afford it, and nothing viii make the
atlas look so well as some of the fine views
which can be found in cur county. Orders
for Jews have already been received from Jos.
Hamilton. the shearer Brothers, D. Mill
holland, D. P. Potter, B. B. Grimes and
others, and the canvassers have not yet left

Shooting a Woman Out of a
Cannon.
New York telegram

They are making a sensation in
the Aquarium by shooting a young
woman from a cannon. The can
non seems to be made,of wood, and
is mounted after the manner of a
mortar. 1t stands at the front of
the stage, pointing at an angle of
about thirty-fve or forty degrees,
between the upturned faces of the
spectators and the rafters overhead.
At the close of the trapeze act Miss
Geraldine comes down the rope,
head foremost, by twining one leg
around it, and with her disengaged
toe describing an Archimedian spi-
raj. She is then assisted to the
raised muzzle of the cannon, into
the bore of which she slips, feet
first, lying on her back. Her head
and neck are just visible when the
gun is charged. Then she gives
the word, the report of the cannon
is heard, and she flies toward the
spectators, going some twenty-five
or thirty feet in astraight line before
she drops to the net spread to catch
her, when she again steps upon the
stage and smiles her acknowledge
nent of the applause. Her bright
garments are not at all blackened by
powder, fact which is doubtless
due to the interior construction OF
the cannon.

A Little Candle, DuI omamins
Far.

A mother, on the green Lills of
Vermont, was holding by the right
hand a boy, sixteen years old, mad
from love of the sea. And as she
stood at the garden gate, one morn
ing, she said:
Edward, they tell me-for I
never saw the ocean-that the great
temptation of seaman's life is drink.
Promise me, before you quit your
mothers hand, that you will never
drink liquor"
"And," said he, for he told the
story, II gave the promise, and
went the world over, to Calcutta,
the Mediterranean, San Francisco
and the Cape of Good Hope, the
North and South Poles. I saw
them all in forty years, and / never
saw a glass filed with sparkling
liquor that my mothers form at the
gate did not rise before my eyes;
and to-day l am innocent of the
taste of liquor.,o
Was that mot sweet evidence of
the power of single word? Yet
that is not half. "For," he contin-
ued, yesterday there came into my
counting-room a man of forty years.
"'Do you know me-? l ~
p Is Mo- -. j
/ "sWell,' said he, I was brought
into your presence on shipboard;
you were a passenger; they kicked
me aside; you took me to your
berth, and kept me there until l
had slept off my intoxication. You
then asked me if I had mother
| / said I had never heard word
from her lips. You told me of
yours at the garden gate, and to-
day am master of one of the finest
ships in New York larbor, and /
have called to ask you to come and
see me.
How far tho little candle throws
its beams, the mothers words on
the green. hills of Vermont! God
be thanked for the mighty power
exerted by the utterance of q single
Yerd.

A Female Teamster.
Little Rock Democrat

For several months past, among
the many teamsters and wood-chop-
pers working for the railroad com-
pany at and in the vicinity of Pop
lar Bluff, there has been one, trim,
very smooth-faced fellow, especially
noticeable. He was popular with
all his associates, owing, perhaps, to
his boyish ways and his straight
forward bearing. He did not in
dulge in the use of intoxicating
-ilu us; a Id night after night, as
the mon were grouped around the
camp fire, his CHEEKY. voice, as he
sang the rude ballads of his com
panions, made the forest ring.
About ten days ago he fell VIC
tim to the chllls and fever, and
while delirious his attendant made
the startling discovery that their fa-
vorite was not what he claimed, but
a woman in dis guise. At night, on
the return of the choppers to the
camp, the information was impaired,
and the next day the girl was car
ried to. Poplar Bluff, where, under
the care OF a physician, she soon
recovered. Her occupation gone,
she found herself an object of sus-
picion and curiosity. Unable to
obtain work suitable for her sex, q
few nights since she donned her
"old clothes" and came to Judso-
mia, where she is again at her old
occupation-driving a team. The
girl, when questioned as to her rea-
sons for leading the life she does,
frankly that she cannot
obtain employment suitable for Il
woman, and that as man she re-
ceives much larger pay than she
would as common domestic,
