that is, they have done away with the
necessity of so many companies. To
make the several hydrants more eff

should be hose companies formed with

The Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
Co. seems to have ''got snap on the
passenger business between Chicago
and st. Paul at last. The old road
grade running from Geneva through
Elkhorn, Whitewater, and then on to
Portage, has been purchased by said
company, and it will be put in shape
for running trains before another year
passes, according to current reports.
The grade connects with the main line
at Libertyyille at this end, and at
Portage on the north end, thus per-
hitting the company to run trains
across lots instead of going around
via Milwaukee. This makes the short
est route between st. Paul and Chicago
by many miles, and when completed
will very soon become the popular
road for passenger travel. Daily Neaos

HANCOCK MAN OF DEsTINY.-Han-
cock is a man of destiny. Why, just look
at the record. In 1868 Garfield brought a
bill into Congress to drop the junior Major
General. That was Hancock. It passed
both houses Of Congress and was signed
by the President, but before it could be
carried into effect George H. Thomas, the
senior Major General, died, and Hancock
going up one grade, was no longer the ju-
nior Major General, and so the law could
not reach him. Then the Republicans,
still led by Garfield, passed an act reduc-
ing the Major Generals to three. This was
signed by the President, but before it
could be carried into effect Meade died.
and the Major Generals were reduced to
three. Finally law was passed author
izlug the Pretident to drop one of the
Major Generals. Before it could be car
ried out, and Hancock be dropped, Hal
lecK died, and Hancock, becoming the
senior Major General, he could not be
dropped. The man who survived all these
attempts to retire him cannot be retired.
The man who led them (Garheld) will, as
a fitting contamination Of his acts, fall a
victim to his intended victim, Hancock
will be elected President. Garfield will be
retired at least from the Presidential field.

JIM FRAZIER FOR CONGREss.-What

piration for seat in Congress? What a
man who knows nothing of the rules of
language, and who only opens his mouth
to offend good taste and to murder the
Queens English, to be preferred before
Ran Tucker, who is conceded to be the
ablest constitutional lawyer in the House
of Representatives, and who never rises to
speak without riveting the attention of
members of all partiesl Can this be pos
sible. Are the people of this district will

ridicule OF Congress, by substituting Jim
Frazier for Ran Tucker? The negro
Radicals will vote for Frazier, whom they
helped to nominate; but can it be possible
that any man laying claim to ordinary
intelligence will consent to place brains
and culture at such a discount, and
bringing such reproach upon representa-
tive government, as the election of Fra
xier to Congress would amount to! We
cannot believe they will.-Lymchbarg Vir-

EVAN BIBBER's ROCK AND ITS THRILL
ING STORY.

CYAN BIBBER's ROCK AND ITS THRILL
ING STORY.
Just below Kanawha Falls, in West
Virginia, is an Overlapping rock of i'm
mense size jutting out about one hundred
feet over seething whirl pool, and it was
once the scene of remarkable adventure.
The Indians were in hot pursuit of Van
Bibber, settler and man of distinction
in those early times. He was hard pressed
being cut off, he was driven to the juttinp
rock, which proved to ba the jumping-off
place for him, and stood on the rock, in
full view of the enemy above and below,
who yelled liked demons at the certainty
of his speedy capture. He stood up boldly
and with his rifle kept them st bay. As
he stood there he looked across the river,
saw his friendships wife and her babe in
her arms-all helpless to render assistance.
They stood as if petrified with terror and
amazement. She cried at the top OF her
voice:
"Leap into the river and meet mel"
Laying her babe on the grass, she seized
the oars and sprang into a skiff alone. AS
she neared the middle of the river, her
husband saw the Indians coming in full
1OlC0 1uu yC11luB AAhO uOAAOuo'
"Wife, wife!" he screamed, "I'm COM
ing; drop little lower"
With this he spTang from his crag and
decended like an arrow into the water,
feet foremost,
The wife rested on her oars for mo-
ment to see him rise to the surface. the
little skiff floated like cork, bobbing
about on the boiling flood. 1t was an aw-
full moment; it seemed an age to her.
Would he ever rise? Her earnest gaze
seemed to penetrate the depths Of the wa
ter, and she darted her boat further down
the stream. He rose near her, in a mo-
ment the boat was alongside of him, and
she helped him to scramble into it amid a
shower of arrows and shot that the baf1ied
Indians poured into them. The daring
wife did not speak word; her husband
was more dead than alive. and all depended
upon her strength being maintained till
they could reach the bank. This they did,
just where they had started, right where
the babe was still lying, Growing and
laughing. The men pulled the skiff high
on the land, and the wife slowly arose and
helped to lift Van Bibber to his feet. He
could not walk, but she laid him down by
his babe, and then seating herself, she
wept wildly, just as any other woman
would have done under the circumstances.
That babe is now d grandfather, and that
rock is called evan Bibber's Rock" to
this day.-Golden Days.
