A correspondent writing from Eaton,
Ohio, says: "Recently Nelson Davis. Of
West Alexandria, this county, cut down in
oaL tree about six feet In circumference, in
the centre Of which was cavity about
seven inches square, partly filed with some
rotten Kind OF wood and a roll of cloth,
which crumbed when touched. Inside OF
all was a German Catholic prayer-book,
bound in leather and much worn. The
book was printed in 1929, and had
a Latin Introduction, while some OF
the blank leaves are filed with wri-
ting in French, part Of which is unin-
telligible, but enough is easily read to show
that the owner was French soldier, tells
what battalion, and mentions the name Of
one Of the officers as De La Magne. Ii
may be OF interest to the members of the
Historical Society. A growth OF at least
I'VE inches over the hole where it had been

the English member OF Parliament who
lately visited this country, on his return TO
his own land two weeks ago paid graceful
tribute TO the American people. The first
thing hat struck him, he said, was their re-
markabe sobriety as compared with the
English. There were no laws in America,
such as in England, which tended to make
the land tse playground Of the rich instead
of The working-ground of the poor, and

From the Eureka (Nev) LeaderI
The trail Leading to the MetamOras mine
is both steep and narrow, and winds along
the side Of Prospect Mountain from the
base 10 almost the summit. In places the
descent from it is very preclpltous, falling
of almost perpcndlcularly for distance OF
two and tnree hundred feet. Several pack
mules have been killed by being pushed of
at these points, but no accident has ever hap
pened TO the hardy miner and prCspectOr
who pass over 1t until yesterday, and this,
fortunately, was not fatal one. The snow
fan had almost oblierated the pathway,
making it peculiarly dangerous, and when
lame. Ahearn attempted 10 make the ascent
yesierda, he was forced to grope bis way
blindy. trusting to his knowledge OF the
route 10 carry him over safely. IL was not
sufficient, however. for when about half
way up be slipped from the icy crust, and
before he could recover himself he was
travelling down the side OF The mountain AT
a rate OF speed only equalled by meteor
While the snow was the immediate cause of
Ahearn's disaster, IL was also his saliva
ton, for IL not only preserved him from
contact with the rocks as he plunged down,
but received HIM in its soft embrace at his
stoppiug- place. some $50 feet from the point
OF departure. As II was, his clothes were
rent and torn; 50 was his skin in Sundfy
places. and while no bones were broken
there were aggregate bruises that will pain
fully remind him Of his experience for
some days TO come.
