He Died in the Harness.

While Doctor Mosely, the Boston
mountain-climber, was facing death on
the M~atterhorn, another tragedy was en-
acting on the side of Breil. A guide,
named Joseph B~randschen, from st.
Nicholas, had been engaged to accom-.
pany a party of tourists who proposed
to ascend the Matterhorn by the Italian
side and descend to Zermatt. The poor
fellow was far from we'll at the time, but
he had a wife and six children, and the
price offered him, $50 francA was an in
ducement he could not resist. During
the journey his illness increased, and by
the time the party arrived ear the cab
in above Breil his condition had become
9 serious that he found it impossible to
go further, Notwithstanding that two of
his companions did all they could to
help him. In this emergency there was
nothing for it but to lead him to the
cabin, place q supply of provisions with.
in his reach, and promise to return short
ly from Zermatt with sufficient assis.
lance to carry him to his home. This
promise was faithfully and promptly
kept; the guide went back to the old
cabin with the necessary help, but only
to find poor Brandschen dead.

cents per pound, live weight, for the
best cattle, and any other grade will
never pay to ship. The only possible
profit will lie In maturing young beef;
and to do this successfully, the warm
season must be worked to the best I'd.
vantage. No feeder should be satisfied
with . less average growth of his steers,
during the grazing season, than tive and
one-half pounds per day; and to do this,
there must be no period of short feed
no period of scant nutrition.

It IL evident that II the piano Il to 10.
main in good order for many yean,
rood care must be taken of II. The in
strument should be closed when not in
use, in order to prevent the collection Of
dust, pins, ETC., on the sounding board.
However, 1t must not be left closed
for . period of several months or longer,
but be opened occasionally, and daylight
allowed to strike the keys, or else the
ivory may turn yellow. Any hard sub
stance, no matter how small, dropped in
side the piano, win cause . rafting,
iarring noise. It In in every case desir-
able that an india-rubber Of cloth cover
should protect the instrument from
bruises and scratches. The piano should
not be placed in . damp room, OF left
open In / draft of air. DampneAs ID its
most dangerous enemy, causing the
strings and tuning.pins to rust, the cloth
used In the construction Of the keys and
action to swell, whereby the mschanism
will move sluggishly, or often stick alto
gether. This occurs chiefly In rainy ses-
sons; and tho best pianos, made Of the
most thoroughly seasoned material, are
necessarily affected BY dampness, the
absorption being rapid. Extreme heati
scarcely less Injurious. The piano
should not be placed very near TO An
open FIRE or heated stove, nor over-close
to the hot air furnace n0w In general
use. Moths are very destructive to the
cloth and felt used in the pianos, and
they may BE- kept out of IL BY placing Z

Per, In the inside corner, care being taken
to renew it from time to time. Many per.
Sons are unaware Of the great importance
of having their pianos kept in order, and
only tuned by = competent tuner. A
new piano should be tuned at least oncl
every two or three months during the
first year, and at longer intervals after
wards. TO preserve the polish, dust the
piano daily with . brush of soft uncut
feathers. Do not use any furniture

process requires great skill. The blush

GEN. JOE LANE grew eloquently pa

was more nimble in the pursuit Of
greasers and green coats, but now, all
is changed. Speaking of this, Joe said:
"My head has been whitened by the

bent by the weight of accumulated
years; my voice has grown feeble and
weak from the service Of three quarters
of a century, and / soon expect to be
called upon to answer the final roll-call.
I am fully prepared, friends, to obey
the summons cheerfully. Two years
ago l looked over the old army regis
ter and found there only FIVE of the sew
enteen American generals who entered
the Mexican wal surviving. OF the
seventeen who entered that struggle
fourteen were younger than myself.
One by one these brave men have an
swered to the last roll-call. Since / last
looked over the register Pillow has
been called away, Cadwalader and
