HIS WAY HLUNI.NED.

Twas at the Mount Zion revival that Jacob
went mp and '-profe-sed,
Where he "franced" and shouted and capered
clean out of his coat and his vest;
And the brudders and sisterirg present who
helped him and Rugged MIN, agreed
That beautificr case of salvation they hadn't
beio' never seed.
Now tie next step in order was joining some
church, and Young Jacob was much
In doubt as 10 whether he'd favor the Baptis
or Mefodis church;
So he called on the Reverend -Boney, who
folded the Methodist flock,
And together they went to the pastor of the
Baptists, the Reverend Book;
And out on the fence by the stable they sat,
the two parsons and Jake.
Who asked them to 'licit their doctrines and
let him eide which he would take.
Then did the two dusty expounders, the good
Brothers Boney and Book,
In ~ordy and erudi,e battle their horns
theological lock,
Aud each did his dogmas and doctrines set
forth in his eloquent style,
EnlargiHg on Faith and Baptism, not forget
ting to argue, the while,
The Failing from Grace, Close Communion
Free VIII, and the Mythical Way
In which doth the Spirits strange power OPP
crate on this bodily clay.
For hours they areyfled warmly. each trying
~ TO satisfy Jake
right nomination to take;
And the limbs and the lips of few mortals c'er
produced such a wonderful stock
OF gestures and Bible quotations as did Broth.
ers Bcney and Book.
Jacob listened in silent amazement, with 4
startling display OF white eyes,
And peFvously squirted his ambcer, between
his front teeth, At the fiies.
-"wcll, gemmen," he said rs they ended, "yo
chuchus Is bofe go -. h,

Brother Rock for moment descended to
open the gate for the COW,
Whercupon Brother Boney slid closer and
whispered to Jake. Jacob, now,
look-a- here, boy. To git to chu'ch, you has

and a. good Br9thcr Book hastened back.
Jack took of his hat. scratc hed his head, and

Not Proud.

Yesterday morning, about 10 O'Clock,
two young ladies were seen marching
down Third Street, one leading and the
other driving COW. The young ladies
were good-looking, dressed in the attire
of country girls. and trudged along till
Manufacturers dry-goods store, on Third
Street was reached. Here they tied the
animal and disappeared in the store,
whereupOn young man was seen to
rush out Of the back door, and it was
some time before he could be found.
Upon making inquiries into this myste-
rious affair the reporter learned that the
young ladies were Miss Emma Faber,
daughter Of Paul Faber, of St. Pau, and
Miss Mary Hendricks, of Winona They
were anxious to interview Mr.. Nathan
Lyon, in Manufacturers store, and this
was the reason: A few evenings since
Mr.. Lyon accused the young ladies Of
being too proud to stoop to the duties
of farmers daughter, and promised to
each $50 silk dress if they would per-
form the above act. So yesterday morn
ing. attired in a farmers daughters cos
tune, they drove Mr.. Faber's COW from
the barn, attached rope, and while
Miss Faber led the animal, MISS Hem
bricks walked behind with brOomstick
to hasten the trip. Without fear they
passed down Third, from the Seven
Corners to Wabasha, there tied the boz
vine, and fastened to receive their
wages. The young ladies would hardly
have been recognized in their impromptu
costumes by their most intimate friends,
and certainly not in the p, sition in
which they were placed. But they won
the silk dresses, which will soon be
forthcoming, and the deed only prompts
the ungallant question, What won't
young lady do for a silk dress?-St.
Paul Pioneer-Press.

experiments. In the department Of
mineral chemistry we find that during
the last year NJ. Lecocq de Boisbaudrae
has continued his researches on the new
metallic element gallium, discovered
two years ago, but which has only now
been thoroughly investigated; he had
also perfected his methods for the sepa-
ration of that body from other substances,
NJ. Boisbaudran has now determined the
specific gravity of gallium as nearly six
times that of water. The equivalent Of
gallium has also been determined by its
discoverer, who assigns to it the number
69,S65. During the past year also
Sergius Kern has continued his investi-
cations on the metal davyum. The de-
termination of the equivalent of dayyum
is now being actually performed, but
preliminary experiments have shown
that it is most probably l54. Inteli-
gence has also been given during the
year of the isolation of certain new
metals and metallic oxides from the
minerals gadolinite and samarskite,
found in America.
DISCOVERY OF NEW EARTH.
~ onC VI thcsc, uiscOvcTeu Dy m.
Marc DelafOntaine, he has given the
name philippium, and has shown that,
although closely allied to the already
known metals yttrium and terbium, it
still possesses characteristic properties
separating it from these two bodies
From the mineral gadolinite NJ. Marig-
nae reports that he has extracted an
earth which at first he considered as er-
bia, but which in reality is mixture of
two oxides. For this new earth he pro-
poses the name of ytterbia, not only on
account of its resemblance to yttria by
being colorless, but also to erbia by its
high equivalent, as well as its resem-
blance to those earths in most of its
properties. Tho latest addition to the
metals belonging to this group of earths
is the extraction of one by the chemist
already mentioned, NJ. Delafontaine, to
which he assigns the name decipium.
In the department of organic chemis-
try the year 1873 will ever be remarks
BILE for the discovery by Prof. Bayer, of
Munich, of what is termed among
chemists the synthetical preparation Of
indigo, the blue coloring matter con-
tanned in the plant isatis tinctoria. found
in India. Although the chemical trans
formations by which this most interest
ing synthetical formation is brought
about are at present too costly to per.
init of their mercantile application, they
still present, like the reactions of Graebe
and Lieberman, one of the best exam
