'fYou have here in Columbus one of The

Do you suppose the people of Ohio fear its

A Man Amputates His Own Leg.

A short time ago a young Chippe-
wa hunter was shooting squirrels in
the woods that border Lake Huron,
near Penetanguishine, when, by some
chance, large blighted pine fell
upon him, knocking him down and
crushing his leg, which was frac-
tured in two places. He could not
rise--he could not remove the tree
which was lying across his broken
leg. He was far from the probability
of passing aid, and to lie there and
starve to death in agony seemed all
that was lett to him. In this dilemma,
with all the fortitude and promptitude
of romance, he took out his knife.
cut off his own leg. bound it up
with his sash, dragged himself along
the ground to his canoe and padded
himself home to his wigwam on a
distant island. There the cure of his
wound was completed, and the man
is still alive. Strange as this may
seem, it is strictly true.--Idaho

THAT HOSPITAL TAX.


By reference to the letter OF our
sutro correspondent, it will be seen
that the disaffection resulting from
the hospital tax imposed upon their
employees by the Sutro Tunnel Com
psny il about to cuiminate in re-
ductlon of the amount of the tax.
There can be no doubt that, under
existing circumstances, the miners
should, as q matter of policy, pay
a hospital tax; but it should not be
no large as it is. There are between
500 and 900 men at work in and
about the tunnel, each OF whom is
taxed 50 per month, if be works
full month, 81 If he works twenty
DAYS or less, and 81 it he works
ten days or less. The aggregate
levied must therefore foot up nearly
g. TOO per month. This is exorbi-
tant. The tax should be reduced
to about 81 per month, no charge
being made when q man WORKS
less than q full month.

A Singular Accident.

An accident occurred on Sunday
at Nashville, about one mile west
of Sharpsburg, Maryland, during
the progress of an immersion of con-
verts in the Potomac river, at that
place. The crowd had gathered to
witness the ceremony composed of
several hundred persons, and a large
number of them climbed upon
several canal boats lying at the
waters edge to gam good view of
the immersions. Just as the cere-
monies were abont to begin the
matches of one canal boat gave way,
precipitating nearly forty persons
into the hold. The excitement for
time was very great, and the cries
and groans of those hurt could be
heard for a long distance. The cere-
monies of immersion were inter-
rupted, and all attention was de-
voted to the relief of those who had
suffered by the accident. OF the
forty persons who fell into the hold
of the boat all received injuries
more or less severe, and by tramp
ing on each other internal injuries
were sustained by some which may
prove fatal.-Baltimore American.

Saving a Husband Into Sections.

Savage assaults by husbands on
their wives are 50 frequent that 1t Is
almost u relief to hear of most fe-
rocious assault by wife on her hus-
band; and not the least pleasing
feature of case of the kind just
reported is that the victim OF this
brutality displayed on and after the
occasion remarkable degree OF for
bearapce. The case came before the
Leith police court, when Catherine
Tough, or Banvard, of Newhaven,
was charged with assaulting her hus-
band, job Methusaleh lanyard. Ac-
cordipg to Jobs evidence, his wife
threw him on the floor, kicked him
violently, and then attacked him
with a saw, apparently intending to
saw him into two pieces. Yet, IN
credible as it may appear, Job did
not lift a finger against his assailant
merely protecting himself, so far
as he could, from being discovered.
He bore it, he said, patiently, as
he had no desire to strike i'll return"
After long investigation OF the CIR
cumstances, Mrs. Baryard was dis
charged from custody, Job remarking
that at was far better to live to-
gether in peace and amity." The
whole story is inexpressibly touching,
and, at the same time, shows what
man may expect when woman is
thoroughly emancipated. Whether
he will bear his yoke as meekiy as
job Methusaleh lanyard remains to
be seen; but, under any circum-
stances, the use of the saw by women
for the adjustment of matrimonial
differences is hardly more objection
able than that of the poker by man.

4 Remarkable Business Partner
ship.

More than a score Of years ago
two Young men, sitting on rock in
the gold fields of California. shook
hands and swore to he partners in
business. No articles of co-partner-
ship were signed. The verbal con
tract was between Dominick and
Martin O'Malley, brothers. Next
day Martin started for Australia,
Dominick remaining IN California.
Several years passed. Martin settled
at Westport, six miles north of Madi-
son, Wisconsin. A year later he WAS
Joined by Dominick. Each had kept
Il firm account and drawn the wages
agreed upon, paying himself from
the firms funds in his own pocket.
The firms earnings were invested in
800 acres of Westport land. Martin
married. The firm kept right on.
Dominick lost an arm. He was sent
to Paris at the firms expense for
wooden one. Dominick married. A
houseful of children was born to
both. Dominick went to the Legis-
lature. The children grew up to be
pretty big little ones. Last week the
brothers saw that complications
might arise unless the property should
be divided before their death, and
the partnership was dissolved. The
vast estate was divided in few
hours, without growl.

Got for Arbitrarily Arresting
Detectives.
Last November four of Pinkerton's
detectives were engaged in Jersey
City on work connected with the suit
to break the will Of the eccentric
millionaire Lewis, who left his fortune
to the United States government. at
the same time the Jersey City police
were almost insane with the idea that
they were on the right clue to the
whereabouts of a. t. Stewards body.
Pinkerton's men were Swallowed by
the police, aud, refusing to state their
business, were arrested without war
rant and charged at headquarters
with being disorderly persons. JUS
tice Dayis being told who they were
| discharged them with reprimand,
and ordered them to leave the city
and not return to it in their capacity
as detectives until they had obtained
a letter from their Chief to the Chief
of Police, explaining their business,
and had received his permission to
perform their duties. One of the
detectives, named Wilkinson, re-
fused to submit to these terms, where
upon the Justice ordered him to be
locked up. He was searched, thrust
into cell, and kept in confinement
until 8 o'clock the next morning. when,
after hearing, he was set free, the
Justice repeating his order Of the
evening previous. There was no COM
plant on oath and no proof of any
acts of disorder against him or any
of the others. Under instructions
from his superiors, Wilkinson brought
suit in the United States Circuit Court
in Trenton for false imprisonment
against Justice Davis and four Jersey
City policemen who took part in his
arrest. Judge McKennan charged
that the conduct of the police was
Illegal and without justification; that
thew were all liable to pensatory

The Eucalyptus in Cyprus.

An Italian, Mr.. NJ, concluded a
contract with the government for
eighteen thousand Eucalyptus trees.
Of the two hundred and eighty va
rieties which exist he has chosen
about twenty of the first thar came
in his. way. These plants were to
have been given over to the govern
ment at Larnaca by March, planted,
and in a healthy, living, green con
dition. The cunning Italian has
taken any variety that offered, as
only Eucalyptus" was mentioned
in the contract. However there is
probably only one variety-that cul-
tivated in Algiers-which thuves in
Cyprus, and this is not to he met
with among those supplied by Mr..
NJ, and all the Eucalyptus trees
planted round Larnaca will be dead
in a few months. Those that are
suitable for the soil of Cyprus have
now been offered to the government
for two francs apiece, whereas Mr..
NJ. obtains five francs apiece for use
less plants. The italian pockets the
money, the English Government
loses ninety thousand francs, and has
been cheated into the bargain.-Lar-

POeahOntas' Birch-Bark Canoe.

In the Museum of the Department
OF Agriculture can be seen a genu-
inc birch. bark canoe. 1t is said to
have some historical interest at
tached to 1t. The Indian Princess,
Pocahontas, is said to have once
owned it, and once upon time dis
ported herself in it on the noble

Smith (before she met Rolf. But
one night it broke from its moor
ings and was blown out TO sea and
was afterwards picked up by some
sailors and carried to Erie, Pa,
from whence it comes as present
