schemes of great magnitude. There
are already projected:
A new suspension bridge over Nj

The establishment of water COM

Add to these enterprises, most OF
which seem likely to be undertaken
in the near future:
Ericson's scheme for utilizing the

WRITING FOR A NEWSPAPER.
How a Minister Found Out That
1t is Not So Easy, After All.

He was friend of mine and used
frequently to drop in and give me
advice as to how ought to run my
paper.
He was q minister, and conse-
quently thought I should devote it a
little more to the cause of religion,
and not quite so much to politics.
He said it could be made power
for good in the Western land, in
which we had both cast our fortunes.
He was lover of the original. too,
and said he disliked to see reprint, and
thought should write more take
the time, in fact,.to fill the paper
right up with good, new stuff. 1t

He sat down to editorial work.
He was always talking about how

DEMOCRATIC BLUNDERs.

General Grant is wise man. At
time when it seemed as if the whole
country was intending to vote the
Democratic ticket the General said
that the Democratic party could be
trusted to commit some folly which
would ruin it's chances of success
In the present campaign the Demo.
Gratis have committed several, any OF
which would be fatal. In California
and in Maine they made unholy ALI
ances which virtually extinguished
the party organization in those States.

the other day, there was the most
formidable bolt Of modern times,
and one that gives New York to the
Republicans beyond question The
Washington Post, which never before
entertained a doubt as to the ability
of the Democratic party to elect its
Presidential candidate in 1880, now
says: f" The action of the Democratic
Convention at Syracuse places the

1t is pretty certain that the Repub-
licans will elect their candidate

Humors Of the Paris Exhibition.

Among the humors of the late
Paris Exposition are the errors COM
mitted in the awards of diplomas to
a number of the American exhibitors,
growing out of the unfamiliarity of
the Commission of Awards with the
American vernacular. In looking
over the diplomas which have been
received at the Office of the Com
missioner General the following have
been casually noted: The diploma
intended for the Providence Tool
Company is addressed to the Provi-
dence Fool Company; that for the
Gardner Gun Company is granted for
a Fusll pour la Jardiniere or Gun for
Gardner; that for the Wamsutta
Mills is granted to Nous Wamsutta.
The Waterbury Button Company re-
ceives its diploma in the name of
Waterbury, Button & Company. The
Commissioner General, understand
ing for whom the diplomas we're in
tended, forwarded them to their des-
tination. The parties, however,
express great disappointment, especi-
ally the " Providence Fool Company"
who are anxious for a revision of the
award in so far as the designation is
concerned, as they are hardly willing
to make a public exhibition of their
laurels under any such colors as those

What Came Of an Ether Drunk,

In speaking of the discovery of
an@sthetics, DR.. Millard Parker OBJ
served that he might have been the
discoverer himself, for the students at
PittsHeld Medical College when he
used to lecture there were in the
habit of putting sulphuric ether on
handkerchiefs and inhaling it as a
stimulant, and if one of them had
gone beyond the stage of excitement
into that Of stupor, the practice Of
anesthesia might have begun then
and there. 1t is curious fact that
DIR. Crawford w. Long-the Georgia
doctor to whose memory his State
are paying special honors, such as
have elsewhere been paid Morton,
jackson and Wells found out the use
of ether in precisely this way. He
and several students in his Office used
to have cosy ether sprees together,
and observing that after these occa-
sions there. were severe bruises and
evidences of falls and blows which
the persons suffering them had not
felt at all, he shrewdly diyined that
he had hit upon useful thing fol
surgical operations, and was no doubt
really the first man to practically ap,
ply it, in March, 1842. The social
drunk is not commonly so beneficial
lin its results. -Springfeld Republican

Eight Years After Drinking Con.
densed Lye.
Our readers will remember the
mention in last Friday mornings
issue of the death of the nine year
old daughter of Henry Haldeman
and lady, at their residence on
Acequia street. The cause of the
death was very unusual one, and
the incidents relative thereto were
very strange. When about fourteen
months old little Annie. for that was
the child's name, while IN the kitchen
got hold of a can of condensed lye
and drank portion of the contents.
Of course, the consequence was that
the child suffered intensely and came
very near dying at the time. After
recovering from the first effects of
the lye, it was discovered that the
child's throat was scalded and that it
was unable to swallow any food Of a
solid nature. Despite the efforts of
skilled physicians and the constant
attention Of her loving parents, little
Annie's throat never did heal up.
But the child lived and grew to be
plump and fat, though bereft of that
vivacity which characterizes chill
dren. The child's pain and suffering
seemed to detract the mind from the
frivolous and the gay, and turn the
thoughts more to solemn and real
things. As years rolled on, however,
such nourishmeDts as Annie was
capable of taking proved not suffi-
cient to meet natures demands and
sustain her growing body, and pres
emily it was observed that her condi-
ton was Rapidly becoming more
serious, and physician was sum-
moned to take charge of her case.
But no good was ever accomplished,
the injury received was incurable,
and it was settled that the child
gradually approached the end of
existence. Finally, death came,
though Annie had attained the age of
nine years, during nearly eight of
which she had lived exclusively on
soups, Cruel and liquid-like food. At
the time of her death the child was
in appearance as skeleton, but re-
tanned her powers of mind and con-
versed nationally to the end.-San
Antonio (Tex) Express.

ROBBERS AT LONG BRANCH.
Bold Attempt to Blow Open a
Safe-A Premature Explosion.


A most daring but unsuccessful
attempt was made to rob the Long
Branch Bank last week. Five men
were in the plot. The Bank was
organized four years ago and had a
capital of 100000. The building is
of brick and but one story high.
The bank does big business during
the summer months, and the would
be robbers expected to make a good
haul. 1t was some time after mid
night that Briton Woolley, the watch
man, was patroling his beat in front
of the bank. Five men approached
and fell upon him and in twinkling
had him gagged and bound. They
deprived him of his revolver and
then carried him distal c. of hun
bred yards, and left him ia an out
house. One of the men stood guard
over him and the other four fearlessly
unlocked the front door with keys
which they had, closed the door after
them, and then unlocked the rear
door, so as to leave them mode OF
exit. They went to work on the safe,
a large Herring's, in very bungling
manner. They had hammers and blow
pipes and powder, but the powder
exploded prematurely and did no
damage to speak of. The noise
alarmed the robbers and they uncere-
moniously fed, leaving all their tools
behind them. The position of the
bank is exposed, and the attempt was
certainly daring. Several men are
under suspicion.
