How Alexander h. Stephens Looks.

In appearance the Confederate vice.
president has not changed for years.
His spare body, colorless face, white
locks, sharp. bright eyes, his dark
clothes, black hat and gray gloves. his
wheeling-chair and his piping voice are
the same, apparently, as they were
twenty years ago, when he first with
drew from Congressional life and George
William Curtis drew the pen picture OF
him in Harper'S Magazine, which pre-
sented him as he then was and still is to
the thousands of curious people in the
North. His old attendant, Harry, who
was with him for thirty years, and
whose presence has tor so long formed n
part of the statesman's surroundings,
has been laid up in ordinary, and
"Alick." a very dark mulatto, strong
limbed and intelligent, has taken his
place. Ifit were not pathetic to see him
carry his master in his arms up and
down stairs. and into and out of the cars
when travelling, the scene would almost
be ludicrous. Take me up, .Alick."
saws Mr.. Stephens, and Alick slips his
strong arm under the withered body
and passes the other over the shoulders.
Then, with slight exertion and a
warning word, Keep quiet, Massa
Stephens" he lifts him as o child and
carries him wheresocver he may wish
to 60. The servant rarely leaves his
masters side and is jealous Of attentions
from outside people, although not OBJ
trusively so.-Philadelphta Times.

A Cave Town.

A correspondent of the Chicago IriL"
ausc, writing from Texas, says: We
passed through a town some ninety
miles northwest of Port Worth called
Oregon City, whose inhabitants live in
caves, not particularly because they are
savages, or know nothing of the COM
forts of civilized life, but mere ly on ac-
count of scarcity of lumber and the dis
tanca from market. Uncomfortable Us
this may sound, the inhabitants Of these
caves live most comfortably, the atmos,,
phere is cool during the summer, ana
they tell US that. during the ceoldesst
weather of last winter, they actually sui;
fered from the heat in what they call
their adobe houses. These caves are not
natural formations. but arc dug out OF Il
siGe-hill. are about the size ola modcr,
atciy large room, and at the side fal'thcrst
from the entrance have fireplace ana
huc running up to the surface OF the
ground. farther up the hi il than the en-
trance. Good ventilation is thus secured
and witt, good drainage above, the cave
is quite dry. The idea is q good one ior
frontier settlers who have not the
whcrcwith to buy material for better
habitatinns. This little town was be-
gun las, r,ll by i colony from oregon,
and con,ains about twenty families.

A Dry Canal Across the lsthmus.

Mr.. Adolph Toellner, of Moline, I'll.
has developed new scheme for trans
porting ships across the isthmus of Pam
ANA. The new idea contemplates the
construction over the isthmus of what
may be termed dry canal, in the form
of letter V, but having n narrow, flat
base, which, with the sides, is con
structed of masonry and lined with steel.
with n LAYER of rubber between. This
canal is to be of width sufficient to re-
ceive the largest vessel, and at each end
of the route to slope gently into the sea.
In this canal. or channel. is what he
calls a movable dry dock, constructed of
steel, built in sections conforming in
shape to the channel, and supported at
the base and sides upon 4 multitude of
small rollers similar in principle to. the
skate roller. Of these rollers his plan
calls for over $4,000.
The movable dock is to be sunk under
the water; the vessel to be transported
is floated into it: the hull is supported
evenly in the dock by hundreds of air-
bags inflated by Il powerful air pump
by rubber wedges and by wooden stays.
It is then drawn up the incline by sta
tionary engines. and thence across the
isthmus by powerful locomotives run
ming upon tracks laid alongside the ca.
nal. These are the principal points in
volved. Mr.. Toellner estimates the cost
of the Nicaragua canal. built On this
plan, at 20,0O0,0 900 to S4o,0O0,0OO. AS
this plan admits of easy grades, avoid
ing locks, with their expense and de.ay'
it is believed that it can be built and op-
Grated more cheaplv than any other sys-
tenn of marine transportation, while it
is adapted to any place where it is de-
sired to move floating craft from one
water TO another; to overcome rapids
and other Ercha,uc.

Buried for Five Hours.

He was a Swede, who had Anglicized
his Swedish name into S. P. Lewis. lie
had worked for some years for the
Central Branch, buG latteriy had been
well digging. The we'll had. caved in
from the rains and was being walled up
again. He had gone down to remove
tile old curbing and the fatal mass of
sand had fallen in and crushed him.
There was no doubt that he was dead,
and. poor fellow, he had a wife and two
little children. There was som" discus
sion as to whether It were better to send
word to his wife that he was dead or to
leave her to hope for while. So the
people talked and occasionally some one
would look down the well and shudder
to think of the livid corpse crushed un-
der the heaped-up sand. All this time
the man in the well was alive. He could
hear every stroke of the hammers OF the
men who were making the curb, but he
thought it was the carpenters across the
street. He could even feel the ear h Vi
brate little. A board had fallen over
against his back and crowded him over
against the side of the well. There was
water about him; he could hear it drip,
and mixed up with the sand were rocks
and pieces of boards. He was as cold
as death, and the mass above him
reached he knew not how far. He
thought, however, he would work his
way up the side. and so he did, inch by
inch, wearing his finger-nails almost to
the quick. Life is dear to man with a
wife and children. and so poor Lewis
worked and pressed the sand back and
kept getting on and up. Then there was
another fail of sand. and lie was almost
in despair. He mounted in this way
for six or eight feet. In the meantime
the people had got reused and began to
hope it was live and not dead man in
the we'll. Fifty men relieved each other
in digging, and a crowd of sympathizers
stood about. At last they could hear
the buried mans voice. Then he was
almost uncovered, but the board which
he had at his back all the way up
reached over his head. He called for a
saw and cut it off, and at two o'clock in
the afternoon, over five hours from the
time the sand fell. he was taken out
alive, without broken bone or bruise
or scratch, only stiffened with cold and
worn out with digging like mole for
his life.-Atchison (Ransas) Champion.

An Engines Terrible Run.

A railroad accident occurred on Meta
mountain, Friday. says recent issue of
the Denver (Col) Tribune, by which
Pat McCool lost his life, and which re-
suited in the demolition of several freight
ears and caboose. The train was cut
ut the little station at Sangre de Cristo
creek, on the west side of the Sangre de
Cristo range, being too heavy for the
engine to take up the grade. The first
half was switched on the summit and
the engine started to return for the pm-
pose of bringing up the rear cars. As
The engine started back, the forward
gear eccentric broke, totally disabling
the left side, while the strain on the
machinery threw the litter on the right
side out OF shape, thus putting the loco.
motive entirely beyond the control OF
the engineer. There was nothing to
control it by. Realizing at once the i'm
pending danger, the engineer told the
fireman and brakemen to Jump off, and
began to whistle off brakes to the con-
ductor and brakeman on the train down
the mountain. The engine was then
about three-quarters of a mile from the
rear part of the train, its rate OF speed IN
descending increasing every moment.
The men below did not understand
the signal. and it was not till the engine
was within one-quarter Of mile from
the cars that the danger was observed.
The conductor hurried the passengers
out of the caboose and let off the brakes
All the persons on the train got of
except Il drunken laborer named Pat
McCool. He refused to move. and there
was no time to move him by force, so
the caboose and cars, the brakes being
let loose, darted down the mountain,
pursued by the flying engine. Behind
the caboose. and of course in front of the
train as # shot down the mountain, were
two hand-cars. Going round the curve
ut Sangre de Cristo tank, the grade being
pit feet to the mile and the momentum
very rapid, the hand-cars left the track
and ditched the caboose, the freight cars
pushing hard behind. swinging the ca
boose around and passing by, going into
the ditch beyond and on the other side.
This left the caboose half on the track
and only partly on its side. The engine
came tearing along at terrible speed,
and, when about forty yards from the
caboose. the engineer jumped of, fol-
lowed by the fireman and brakeman,
who until then refused to leave him
Just at this moment the drunken laboreI

A Long Thread.

According to the return of our cotton
goods and print manufacturs, almost
| 500, 600, 900 yards were produced in this
country in 1878. New England furnish
ing nearly two-thirds of the amount.
Geographically speaking, this produc-
ton would be sufficient to encircle the
earth at the equator nearly forty times.
The cotton shuttle Of to-day is thrown at
the rate of three times second, and,

he portrayed the virtuous Penelope spin
ming for Ulysses. This method is still
practiced in the Orient. To spin ten
skeins in twelve hours, or three miles
and IL fraction OF thread, the spinner
walks $4,000 feet, or about five miles.

fell close to her. For moment she
seemed suffocating, but this sensation
soon passed off into fit of hiccoughs.
These became so distressing that after
three days her mother took her to the
children's hospital in Paris for advice.
The surgeon ordered her to be taken to
the operating theater. where, on seeing
the medical man standing at table COW
