Swapping Lovers.


lIOrt Jarvis hOrning Call
a singular story reached our ears q
few days ago which may be quoted as
another illustration that "the course
Of true love never runs smoothly" In
a little village in this county, which
shall be name!ess, lived two young
ladies, sisters, aged respectively g and
20 years. They We're each receiving
| the addresses Of a lover, the lovers be-
ing brothers in family residingab0ut
a mile from the village, and both
couples were engaged to be married.
1t was their intention to celebrate "a
wedding about the holidays, but it has
been decided now to postpone the
affairs for few months
About Il month since the four were
sitting together at room at the resi-
dence Of the girls, when one of them
expressed II wish to go out and attend
political meeting then being held in
the village by the Democrats. She
asked her lover to accompany her, but
ne declined, giving his reason that he
was not a Democrat. The young lady
insisted and he firmly but politely
declined Finally, annoyed by his
refusal, she turned to his brother, who
it seems was a Democrat, and asked
him to accompany her. To the sur
prise Of the brother and other sister,
heat once consented and away they
went to the meeting. The two that
remained were quite indignant, the
one at the conduct Of her lover, the
other at the way his sweetheart acted.
The more they talked over it, the
more angry they became. They dis
covered that they (the ones at home)
were both Republicans, while the
sympathies of those who had gone out
were Democratic. They talked on,
discovering little by little similarities
of tastes and habits, and finally re-
solved each to break with the old
sweetheart and lover and form a new
alliance. 1t was no sooner resolved
than 1t was done, and the contract
ratified with kiss, and they decided
to notify the Others of the changed
state of affairs as soon as they returned
home from the meeting. After pro-
tracted interval the others returned.
With serious faces, which indicated
that an outbreak might be expected
the tale was told by the gentleman.
To his surprise, no sorrow was shown
no anger manifested, and his wonder
was increased when he was informed
that they (the other couple) while on
their walk home, had resolved to do
the same thing.
The hugging goes on just the same
in those parlors, only The young men
favor the new girl with their atten-
tions. They have concluded that it
will be wise to wait few months
longer before they get married, to
make sure that they do not wish to
swap again.

Strange Sensations.

a few days ago as was stated in
I the Inter Ocean, Conductor a. s.
Parker of the Grand Hrunk railroad
who resides in this city, by an acci-
dent lost leg and an arm, at Stillweu
station. The members severed from
the body were left lying by the side OF
the track while the body was imme-
diately conveyed to South Bend for
medical assistance. AS soon us he re-
covered consciousness, he began to
complain that his right arm was in a
cramped condition His attendants.
knowing that his arm was many
miles away by the side Of the railroad
track, paid no attention to his conf
plants, thinking him out Of his head.
He still continued his assertions that
the fingers of his right arm were
doubled under his hand and asked
his assistants to send and get his arm
at Stiilwell. BY his speech they saw
that he realized the accident, and a
telegram was sent to Stillwell to send
the mutllated arm to its owner. The
request was carried out and the armsent
to him by express. So soon as IL was
token up Off the ground; few min
utes after the telegram was sent,
Parker remarked to his assistants that
his arm was all right now, that they
had picked it up. Every time per-
son took hold of it along the route
Parker would speak of it, and cry out
with pain when it was roughly
handled and whenever any of his at
tendunts touched it while it lay in the
next room to him he knew it as
quickly as though the arm was still
attached to his body. The messenger
who got his arm said that he found ii
just as Parker had said it was, with
the fingers cramped under it. This
is one Of the most singular yet well
authenticated cases on record, where
a man could feel sensation IN an arm
which was cut Off and lay many
miles away from him, and which had
been cut OF many hours. The ply
sicians are baltied to account for it,
and can only class it under the head
of the uncxplainabie phenomenal
mysteries which are met in the study
Of nature.

The advocate,
Somehow or Other.

Life is q burden for every mans shoulder.
None may escape rrDm It's trouble and care;
Miss 1t in youth, and twill come when we're
older,
And fit us as close as the garments we wear.
Sorrow comes into our lives unlimited,
Robbing our hearts of their treasures of
song;
Lovers grow cold and friendships are sighted
Yet somehow or other we worry along,
Everyday toll is every day blessing,
Though poverty's cottage and crust we may
share!
Weak is the back upon which burdens are
pressing,
But stout is the heart that is strengthened
by prayer.
Somehow or other the pathway grows
brighter,
Just when we mourn there are none TO be-
friend:
Hope in the heart makes the burden seem
lighter,
And somehow or other we get to the end.

suburb Of st. Louis has been praying
for several months that he might be

very feeble, and his friends had not
thought it possible for him to live
until election day. But on the I'd OF
November ne tottered to polls, and,
steppug up To the window, gave his
name. The ballot was received by
the Judge, duiy marked and depos-
tied H. the box. Satisfying himself
that HI vote had been properly regis
tered and disposed of, the old man
turned TO go home, but before he had
taken half dozen steps he suddenly
reeled and fell. The bystanders, sup
posing that he had accidentally fallen,
rushed to- his assistance, but the first
slanoe showed that he was dead.

Cured on the south side of Ford Pit at

work in different bands. The explos-

across to the other side of the pit, kill

pit was blockaded at o'clock. All
who have come up are likely to live.
a working party is down now. There
is not much hope for the thirty or
thirty-1ive men known to be in the

The accident, it is presumed, was
caused by some miner firing u shot in
the forbidden part of the workings.
