MISS PUROELL's DIARY.

January 3.-They say it is piece Of
egotism to write in a diary, because you
can't help writing as if you expected some
body to see it. Never mind; it's begun;
and hereby solemnly record that the
weather is fine and the wind southerly,
and if we don't have the January thaw,
it's because nothing can thaw in Mrs.
Whyte's presence. She received me when
came as if she were the Grand Duchess
Of Mangel- Wurzel, and she looked at my
little trunk, as if it were servants band
box, and presented me to her Prince Man
gel, otherwise her brother-in-law, Mr..
Gervais Whyte; as if she begged pardon
for reminding WhYte that such worms
crawled the earth. But she found this
worm sup on end" She was about pre-
senting me to some more of those about
her, when 1 remarked, with my head at
its highest: "Fray don't take the trouble
Il am not accustomed to promiscuous in
Productions. I will 60 to Miss Julia at
once" I enjoyed seeing Mrs. WHITES
eyes open then; they let some light in her
brain fancy. "By George!' heard the
Prince say, as we swept out of the room
together, ''Greek meets Creek" And
then the music went on, and we threaded
two velvet-foored halls before arriving at
Miss Julia's door in the wing. On our
way we met the duchess husband, Mr..
Gyles Whyte, a long and solemn man, as
becomes him. He said he knew me from
my resemblance to Miss Julia. Well,
well
AS for Miss Julia, she is sight. A
misshappen little creature not up to my
shoulder; she is very short, she is very
stout, she has almost hump; take any
view and it seems that her head is set on
wrong side before. But her face-ah, that
is nearly heavenly, except when she gets
angry. She can't walk; but she has a
crutch, with tap of which she recalls
you if your mind wanders, and her OWL
mind wanders most Of the time. 1t Il

How DEATH MAY COME. -Strange mis-
chances, with fatal results, are daily hap
pening here and there. A Boston butcher
ran against a knife that severed an artery
and bled to death. A Denver woman
caught her foot in railroad frog, and
could not get loose before train ran over
her. A Vermont farmer sneezed with
straw in his month, drew it into his lungs,
and died choking. A horse kicked Mich
igan boy into deep well, where he was
drowned. The shoe flew off the foot Of a
kicking mule in Nashville. and fractured
the skull Of baby. An Oregon girl swal-
lowed her engagement ring. and lived only
week afterward. While standing on his
head, on the top of high fence post, an
Iowa boy lost his balance, fell into a tub
Of hot water, and was fatally scalded. A
stone, thrown by a play-fellow, broke a
glass from which a st: Louis boy was
drinking. driving some of the pieces down
his throat; he died a few days afterward
in great agony. Looking up to watch the
fight OF an arrow, a Nashville woman did
not see it descending directly over her
head, and the sharp metal point penetra-
ted the brain through one of her eyes,
killing her instantly.

THE LOVERS QUARREL.

THE LOVERS QUARREL.
BY MRS. 8. B. PIATT.
Mrs. s. B. Piatt's little poem, After the Quarrel
shows the difference between a delicate pencil an
a white-wash brush, and has too many fine toucht
not to be quoted entire.
Hush my pretty one. Not yet.
Wait a little, only wait,
Other blue flowers are as wet
As your eyes, outside the gate
He has shut forever. But
Is the gate forever shut?
just young man in the rain
Saying (the last time) ''good night!'
Should he never come again
Would the world be ended, quite?
Where would all these rose-b buds go?-
And these robins7 Do you know?
But he will not come! Why, them
Is no other within call?
There are men, and men, and men
And these men are brothers all!
Each sweet fault of his you'll find
Just as sweet in all his kind.
None with eyes like his! Oh-Oh!
In diviner ones did
Look, perhaps, an hour ago,
Whose? Indeed (yOu must not cry)
Those I thought of-are not free
To laugh down your tears. you see.
Voice like his was never heard?
NO-but better ones, VOW;
Did you ever hear bird?-
Listen, one is singing now!
And his gloves? His gloves? Ah well,
There are gloves like his to sell.
At the play tonight you'll see,
In mock velvet cloaks, mock Paris,
With mock jewelled swords-that he
Were clown by!-Now those curls
Are the BARRIERS pride say;
Do not cry for them pray.
If no one should love you? Why,
You can love some other still;
Philip Sidney, Shakespeare, ay,
Good King Arthur, if you will;
Raphael-he was handsome, too
Love them, one and all. I do.

WEAK SToMAcH.-Where the stomach
is weak, it's muscular action impaired, and
its nerves over sensitive, little food should
be taken into it at time. The best diet
is SKINNED milk. half a pint every four
hours. When milk is we'll digested, lime
water is combined with it. Such foods as
coffee, tea, and tobacco must, of course.
be given up absolutely and at once. A SOW
ereign article of diet is buttermilk. In
butterwilk the caicine of milk is coagula-
ted and broken up, SO that the stomach is
spared two steps of the regular process Of
digestion. Another excellent preparation
of milk is koumyss. It contains a good
deal of carbonic acid. In all cases the
stomach's work should be made easier by
diet consisting Of eggs, milk, starchy veg
etables, stewed fruits and a little butter
with stale bread.-Medical Recorder,

THE DEADLY BALL.
A Bird Hunt and its COnse-
quences--A Break for
the Jail.

NJ. NJ. Reid, formerly of this place,
shot and seriously wounded John
Thompson at Trenton last Monday in
a personal alteration. 1t seems that
Thompson last Friday was out bird
hunting and shot at a covey of birds,
and some of the shot struck Reid, who
thought the gun was aimed at him.
Monday, Reid asked Thompson why
he had shot at him. Thompson de-
MED the charge. The parties came to
blows, and Reid made several attempts
to get away from Thompson in the
fight, and final drew pistol and
shot at Thompson. Thompson then
turned to run, when held shot again,
the ball taking effect under the should
err blade. Reid gave himself up.
Both parties are highly connected.
Reid being brother-in-iaw Of Esq.
A. Jordan, of this place. We are in
formed after the shooting was done,
Reid made a rush for the Jail as a
place of security, and also to place
himself in the hands of the law.

The Railroads.

A little frame house has been erect
ed at the upper end of the platform,
to be used as a telegraph office.
A negro named Lyon, we learn,
was killed by a pile driver near Full
ton last Saturday. We did not learn
the particulars.
Washington special to the Cincin-
natl Commercial: "There is much
interest here about the debt and raii>
road complications in Tennessee.
Gentlemen just from that state repre-
sent that If the bondholders gain the
suit it will bankrupt every railroad
except the Louisville, which is fnan-
cially very strong. President Standi-
ford and vice President Newcomb, Of
the Louisville road, arrived here to-
day.
The number Of railroad accidents
last year in the United States was ex-
ceptionally small-indeed, the small
est on record. The current issue of
the Railroad Gazette saws there were
1,2S3 accidents in 1873, $50 in 1874,
1901 in 1875, $50 in 1876, 89l in
1877, and 740 in 1878. The number
of people killed last year was 2O4; in
iured, 756. More trains were thrown
from the track by misplaced switches
than from any other cause.

Arrested for Forgery.

A man by the name at Searle was
arrested near here last Monday by q.
S. deputy Marshal Haun and officer
Lusk, on the charge of forgery of a
note. He had been passing here under
the name of Smith for some four
months. He was taken to Paris Mon
day night, where he had committed the
act, and where he will be tried. We
learn that he confessed his guilt to
the officers.
