a Life on a Wager.

From the Suro new Independent
The most foolish bet that we ever heard
Of was that made last Sunday morning in
George Shaw 5 saloon. on Florence ave
nue., by Michael Hall, that he could drink
one quart of whiskey within five minutes.
Hall had been drinking a good deal dur
ing the morning, and was at the time OF
betting somewhat intoxicated The sum
bet was only SO, which fact alone shows
the condition of the mans mind at the
time. y quart measure was procured and
filed to the brim with whskey, the quail
ty Of which, we suppose, was about the
same as that generally served in mining
towns IN this State. Hall put the measure
OF liquor to his mouth, and without tax
ing it from his lips drank it to the dregs.
Before a minute had passed he fell to the
floor, apparently dead, and in that condi-
ton was at once removed to his lodging
house, on Helena avenue. Dr. Briefly
was summoned and emetics were given,
but without producing the desired result
4 stomach-pump was then applied to the
man, and more than pint Of the liquor
was taken from him. For forty eight
hours he was unconscious of what was go
ing on about him. Inflammation of the
stomach set in, and his sut1erings became
intense. The alterations from the in
fiammation finally, it is believed, perfor
ated his stomach, and on Thursday night,
about ! o'clock, he died. Hall was a
robust, hard working young man, only %
years of age. He drank the whisky in
two and a half minutes.

A Preposterous Story.

A jocular Senator from the West,
according TO the Washinton CORES
pendent Of the Boston Journal, tells
n very good story about another Sen
ator from Il Southern State. The
latter began life rs brakeman on q
railroad, and by industry and fore
sight has accumulated 4 fortune and
high political honors. Senator Thur
man, WI lie speaking, usually holds
his eyeglasses in one hand and u
huge rcd handkerchief in the other.
He blows n sounding blast on his
nasal organ in the midst Of Il speech
quite as natural as Senator Dawes
looks up at the galleries every timo
he addresses the Vice President. 1t
was an all-night session. The South
ern Senator was quietly sleeping on
sofa in the cloak room. Mr.. Thur
man was speaking. lie blew his
nose with such vigor that the report
could have been heard in the Sccreta,
rvs office. The sleeping Senator
was awakened by the noise, and,
lcaping to his feet, grasped Il chair
by the side OF the sofa and twisted it
around until the author Of the story
graspcd him by the arm and brought
him TO realizing sense Of his where
abouts.

leave the paternal roof we may be

or gentle wife, and may be blessed
with dutiful and happy children; but

we should be to her We should
share her axieties, Tighten the burden
Of her cares, and stlivc to make her
declining years happy. 1t is debt
as we'll rs duty We owe TO her, and
it is happily in the power Of all to
pay it. Think ,f the many days II

given to US, and then let us ask our
selves if we can do too much for

Woman.

A woman in a ncighborhood is only
excclled by another woman. She
can love trucr or hate worse than the
men Of ordinary calibre.
She can make home little heav-

She can make q ten or hundred
dollar bill go up, o! so quick.
She can drive q man out Of house
if her tongue be working all right,
quicker than Beast Butler could get
away with set Of spoons.
She can kiss another woman sweet
er, and then talk about her worse
than one OF these Reform Rcpnb'i-
cans can talk about the President.
And she knows more by intuition
of nil the affairs of the ncishborhood
than Grant knows about his relations
or the posto flee presents he has re.

She can be nicer TO 4 woman she
hates than scallnwag politician is t.

She can walk further TO display 4

And love hcr-if she loves man

Some fifty years ago, gang OF
Belgian miners, angry with another
set Of underground workers, set a
mass Of coal on fire to smoke ont
their comrades. How well they sue
cccdcd, let the record of half a ccntu-
ry tell. Years have passed away, q
generation has laded, the angry pas
sion of those who thus sought revenge
has bccomc thing Of the past; but
the fire started in that mine long ago,
blazcs on, and no earthly skill has vet
found the way TO cxtinguish it.
Turning on, ever consuming, it is a
fitting type of the unccasing power of
sin and passion, and of the never end
ing fire which they kindlc.

A gentleman in Bryan County has
adopted the plan Of grating the
peach upon the rapid growing varic-
ties of plums with most gratifying re-
suits. He has an orchard Of 200
trees thus grated, from which he
gathered q fine crop Of superior fruit
last summer. He claims for this
plan decided advantage in 'hc coast
region, and bases his opinion upon
results. The difficulty hitherto ex-
pericnced by those who have expert

the plum has arisen from the fact that

The Washing ton correspondent OF

ing "Some people we're speaking
the other day Of the regularity with
which Mrs. Senator Gordon attends
the sessions Of the Senate, and the
kccncst interest with which she
watches. the debates. One of the
Up party said that she is so devoted to
her husband that she goes with him
everywhere. During the war she
took her two little boys, one alrnos
n baby, and lived with her husband
in camp, following him into battle, in
fact, sharing all the danger with him.
She had an ambulance at her service,
and it was in that she used to follow
him. When he was so seriously
wounded, she had her ambulance
driven right into the battlefield, and
him pulled out from the dead and
wounded and placed in the ambulance,
and she drove Off with him. All CT
this was done under the heaviest fire,
and the cover Of the ambulance was
pierced with bullet-holcs. Some one
said TO her: "How could you have

Wife.

What do you think the beautiful
word "~ife" comes from? 1t is
the word in which the English
and Latin language conquered the
French and Greek. l hope The
French will some day get word fol
it instead Of that dreadful word
femme. But what do you think il
comes from? The great value of
Saxon words is that they mean some
thing. Wife means weaver" You
snust either he housewives or house
moths remember that. In the deep
sense, you must either weave mems
fortunes or embroittcr them, or feed
upon and bring them to decay.
Wherever true wife comes, home
is always around her. The stars
may be over her head, she glow-worn1
in the night cold grass may be the
fire at her foot; but home is where
she is; and for noble woman it
stretches fur around her, better than
houses cciled with cedar and painted
with vermillon, shedding its quiet light
far, for those who else are homeless.
This believe TO be the woman's tue
place and power Rushin.
