Haps and Mishaps.

Julius Paule, while telling tree
near Dubuque, Iowa, was instantly
killed by the tree falling upon him and
breaking his neck.
A 1O-year-old daughter of E. Whita-
ker, of Beaver Center, Pa, was left
alone in the house, and by some un-
known means her clothes took fire and
the girl burned to death. The body was
found by the family oa their return
home, with the clothes completely burn
ed off.
Suicidal: Thomas Bastable, aged
q, telegraph operator at Ada, o., shot
himself through the head. Disappoint-
ment in love and intemperance are sup
posed to have impelled him to take his
life.-Arthur Reitler, aged Is, of indie
pendence, Iowa, also shot himself on
account of an unhappy love affair.-At
Detroit, Mich, the wife of Samuel H.
Steele killed herself by taking arsenic.
Some three weeks ago she made des-
perate attempt to kill her husband with
an ak because he went on prolonged
spree. She was supposed to have been
insane. Elias Sowman, Dunkard min
lister, residing seven miles northwest of
Hagerstown, Md, committed suicide by
cutting his throat with a razor. Finan-
cial troubles are supposed to have been
the cause.
Shooting casualties A man named
Elder was fatally wounded by the acci-
dental discharge of his gun while hunt
ing near Gretna Green, Ind.-At Ber-
rien Springs, Mich, Richard Culpperb,
while engaged in getting the load out of
his gun, accidentally discharged it, the
contents striking him in the face.-At
Charlotte, Mich, Martin Harris was
accidentally killed by the discharge of
his companions gun while the two were
hunting ng.-Frank Berlin proprietor of a
meat-store at Memphis, shot himself ac-
cidentally by letting his pistol fall on the
floor, producing a probably fatal
wound. Two brothers named Marsh
were hunting near Colby, Wis, when
one, mistaking the other through the
brush for a deer, shot him through the
legs.-Charles Stricken and Charles
Oder were hunting squirrels neat Brush
Creek, in Southern Ohio, when Stricken
was shot by the accidental discharge of
Oder's gun. He died after being re-
moved to his home.-At Baltimore, Miss
Laura Bannon, with a toy pistol, which
was accidentally discharged, fatally shot
her cousin, James Murphy, Sunday
evening, after having justreturncd from
church.

A young lady was overheard ex-
planning to a friend as they emerged
from very fashionable ultra high
church place of worship in London a
a few Sundays ago, that although
it was a dreadfully long way to come,
she never missed Sunday service there,
because she invariably got new idea
as to dress or bonnet.
"A School-bOard Inspector asked a
small pupil of what the surface of the
earth consists, and was promptly an
swered, "Land and water" He varied
the question slightly, that the fact might
be impressed on the boys mind, and
asked: What, then, do land and wa
ter make?" To which came the imme-
diate response: Mud"
1t is wonderful how fascinating
the simple act of walking may become.
-EGchGnge. This is even so; we have
seen a fellow stand and look after an
other fellow walking off with his girl,
fascinated to that degree that his head
was twisted clear around on his shoul-
ders, and he had the lost appearance of
a man who has got into his clothes

Neyada's Biggest Nugget.

From John Verzan, who, in company
with T. C. Poujade, arrived from Osce-
ola on Saturday last, says the roche
Record, we learn the following concern
inc the greatest mass of gold yet discov-
cred in Nevada: The golden mass,
when first found, was thrown into pile
of waste earth, and there it lay undis-
turbed for several weeks. Finally, 1t
was carried by pack animal, along
with the thief's camp fxings, into Ward,
where it was melted into small bars.
The piece, before melting, weighed just
"A pounds and 10 ounces avolrdupols,
and as it contained but very little quartz
its actual coin value must have been at
least $4,000. The finder of this truly
wonderful specimen was a man who had
been under many obligations to MIR.
Verzan, his employer, and the princi-
pal owner in the mine. When Verzan
met the thief in Ward he greeted his
late employee cordially,as an old friend,
and again offered him assistance, sup
posing him to be in need. This was too
much. The thief, pale and haggard,
met Mr.. Verzan the next morning. lie
said that he had passed restless days
and sleepless nights long enough; that
he was willing to give up all that re-
manned of the stolen property for SIM
pie forgiveness, for one nights rest, for
one meal unalloyed by the thought that
it was purchastd with stolen goods.
Then he told the story of the nugget, as
given above, meanwhile dropping into
the hands of the astonished owner bar
after bar of heavy, solid, shining gold.
The owners of the claim realized S2,25O.
One bar, valued at about $3.50, was Civ
en- to the repentant thief, who immedi-
ately thereafter disappeared. Of the
remaining $1,000 q part was sold to
Wells, Fargo & Co.'S agent at Ward,
having first been alloyed with copper to
avoid suspicion. AS nothing definite
can now be proved, the thief's accom-
plices in the melting are still at large.

Chased by Wolves.

Sunday evening Mr.. Mcintyre, of
Jasper Township left home on foot to
meet his son, who was on his way from
Lenox, with team and wagon loaded
with lumber, and when about three
miles from home, while crossing piece
of breaking, was met by large gray
wolf that exhibited signs Of familiarity,
and Mr.. Nc. began to pelt him with
turf. Mr.. Wolf became enraged, and
boldly attacked him, and it was with
the greatest difficulty that he was en-
abled to keep the enraged animal at
bay; and had he not luckily come up
on stake that had been used by the
breakers as a guide he might have re-
ceived serious injury. BY dint of walk
inc backward, and free use, Of his
bl1dgeon, he was enabled, with safety,
to reach a dwelling about mile dis
tant, and none too soon, as the sequel
proved, for he was not there long be-
fore a pack of half a dozen or more
hungry wolves surrounded the house,
keeping a short distance therefrOm,
however, and set up their bowling,
bringing to the minds of the occupants
the many weird wolf stories of the early
settlements.-C0 CORNING (Ia.) Gazette.
