Luxurious Leadyille Ladies.

The Leadville ladies must be a luxuri-
GUS lot from the following, in the Chroni-
Gle of that city: "There was a time when
rich mems wives and daughters in New
York and other cities ON the Eastern
frontier used to be richly dressed. This
was during and Immediately after the
war The other day n large consign-
ment of the costly Jewels worn by the
New York social bellies during the times
that were good, came TO Lcadville to be
sold. Such consignments have been COM
mon in the last few weeks, Through re-
verses in fortunes the heightened ladies of
New York are compelled to sell.
Through great and unexpected prosper
ity the ladies of Leadville think they
must buy, and to hear of Mrs. So and So,
or Miss -, the daughter of one of the
Kittie Krocker mine owners, paying two
or three thousand dollars for a pair of
ear rings or four thousand dollars for n
pair of bracelets, or two thousand for q
finger ring, is nothing uncommon One
house in this city is now wholly engaged
in bringing to Leadville the most costly
jewels that can be found in the Eastern
markets, and during the season now at
hand there will be ballroom scenes in
Leadville that will dazzle"

A Blind Rat Led by n Straw.


Since our notice of the extraordinarily
large rat at the police station with a
voice like human, we have heard
many rat stories One told by relia-
BILE gentleman we think worthy of re-
peating. He says some years ago, he
was living at farm, the barn of which
was burned, and with it many rats.
Some of the little fellows escaped, how
ever, with serious injuries, and took up
their abode under piles of lumber near
a creek. At this place the strange cir
cumstance he tells of occurred. One
came out, drank, and returned with a
straw in his mouth. Walking up to the
lumber, he pushed this straw under, and
presently another came out, holding the
other end of the straw. The first then
started for the creek, leading his compan-
ion (who was afterward found to be
blind) to the water. After the blind
one had drank, they returned in the
same manner The gentleman says he
witnessed the proceeding, and will
vouch for the truth of the statement.

Singular Conduct Of a Swan.


Three years ago a young child OF L.
l.. Ellsworth was buried in Pine Grove
Cemetery, and rocking-horse place dbe-
side the grave. The lot is one of the
most conspicuous in the cemetery, and
is located neara miniature lake in which
several white swans disported. Soon
after the interment one of the swans
mounted the Ellsworth lot, and has ever
since kept watch over the grave of the
child, scarcely leaving the mound even
to eat. Any one who attempts neal
approach of the grave is greeted with the
birds shrill cries and preparation for an
attack, which is made if the grave OF
rocking-horse is touched, and the bird
invariably drives off strangers. The
swans mate endeavored for some time
to induce her companion to return to the
lake, but without success, and eventually
died of grief. Hundreds of people have
visited the cemetery to witness the
singular conduct of this self-stationed
sentinel

THE Hudson river grape crop, all ac-
counts say, is very large. The bulk of
the crop is grown on the western shore,
between Esopus and Cornwall. 1t is
stated that in the aggregate, the vines
will yield three tons 20 the acre. Dur
ing the last three years large quantities
of cuttings have been planted. This year
many vineyards will yield full crop
for the first time. The principal va
riety grown is the Concord. The Della
wares and Hartfords are cultivated in a
few places to a limited extent.

tain's statement-and he should be

the list during the past week. Two
gentlemen of this vicinity sawed through
piece of timber and found bullet i'm
bedded therein, fully two feet from the
outer bark of the tree near the centre.
The saw passed through it, cutting
away about one-third. They could find
no trace of its track from any direction,
although the wood was slightly discolored
in its immediate vicinity. Appearances
would seem to indicate that it must
have been there at least one hundred
years. 1t is an old-fashioned slug, and

considerable degree of satisfaction. The
