Mark Twain ON Arte,nus Ward.

Knoxville (Tonn.) Trilsine.
Some time ago, as our readers will
doubtless remember, we took the posi-
tion that Mark Twain stood at the head
of American humorists and wits, the
Nashville ImGican having given that
place 10 Artemus Ward. We sent q
copy of the Tribune, containing our an
swer to the dmGicdH's article, TO Mark
Twain, and in reply we have very
pleasant letter from that great American
mirth-lTovoker. Mr.. Clemens speaks
with such kindness of Artemus Ward,
and discusses some of the personal
qualities that endeared him to the Eng
lish people in such a pleasant way tLat
We are sure he will not object to the
publication of that part of the letter. 1T
also affords us an opportunity to put in
print COAX" perpetrated by Artemus,
which Mr., Clemens assures us has never
before been published. Mark Twain
was born in East Tennessee, and per-
haps still retains some affection for the
scenes Of his childhood. At any rate
he counts'in cast. Tennessee many of
his most enthusiastic and sincere friends.
The letter of which we have spoken is

new joke attributed TO his favorite hu-
morist ...

much fer that peasant article. or

but when it comes to speaking of matters
personal l am good witness. Artemus
was one of the kindcst and gentlest men
in the world, and the hold which he
took on the Londoners surpasses imagl-
nation. To this day, one of the first
questions which q Londoner asks me is
tifal knew Aremus Ward. The answer
"yes," makes that man my friend on the
spot. Artemus seems to have been on
the warmest terms with thousands of
those peop.e. Well, he seems never to
| have written harsh thing against any,
body-neither have | for that matter
at least nothing harsh enough for Il
body to fret about-and think he never
felt bitter toward people. There may
have been three other people like that
in the world at one time or another, hut
they probably died a good while ago.
think his lecture on the Babes in the
Wood was the funniest thing ever lis
tened to. Artemus once said to me
gravely, almost sadly, "Clemens, | have
done too much fooling, too much tritling,
! am going TO write something that will
live" ......-. :.
"Well, what, for instance?"
In the same grave way, he said:
"A lie."

A LOng-Lost Daughter.

biODc-DtmOcfdt.
An interesting little story was told at
the Mayors office yesterday, and the re-
quest which went with it was granted.
Three years ago Simon Niedzli, Polish
peasant, left his native country, and
with his family embarkedt to Caracas, the
capital of Venezuela. They remained at
this port one year and then took pass.
age for New Orleans. After the family
had boarded the steamer which was to
bring them to this country the eldest
child, girl of fourteen, was sent ashore
ON some little errend, which was expect
ed to require but a few moments time. but
for some reason she did not come back.
Just as the anxious parents were about
to 20 in search of their missing daughter
the steamer put out to sea and the
girl was left behind. Immediately on
reaching New Orleans the father wrote TO
one of his few acquaintances in Caracas
with view of having the girl restored
to her home, but no answer was ever re-
ceived. A few months ago Niedzli came
to st. Louis. and yesterday in company
with a friend to interpret for him, he
presented himself at the Mayors office.
and asked that the authorities ut Caracas
be communicated with regarding the
missing child. Her name is Katie
Niedzli, and she would now be nearly
seventeen years old. The man was
promised what he asked for and left
satisfied. Some weeks must elapse be-
fore anv trace of the girl can be obtained
if any can be obtained at all.

a Blast In u Mine.
IGhdYille Reysilla

Another of those terrible accidents
which so often occur in mining regions.
occurred yesterday morning in the Glass
mine, situated on Carbonate hih. Our
readers will remember that some months
ago miner lost his life in the same
mine, by falling down the shaft while
ascending to the surface in bucket.
Yesterday three men were injured in
the same mine. One of them will die.
}. H. Mckinnis is hard-working,
steady miner. He has been employed
in the mine for long time, and is par
tcularly noted for his oareiulness. Yes
terday Mckinnis, Thomas Lair, the fore
man, and August Kavanaugh, a work
man. were at the bottom of the shaft.
They had been there before many times,
but on this particular morning McKin-
mis- had presentiment that he would
be killed before the sun went down.
The men worked away as usual for
several hours, chatting and cracking
jokes as they shoveled the rich ore into
tho bucket, and no thought crossed their
minds that they all would not rise to the
surface and greet the sun, in their usual
health and strength, az they had done
before, day after day, But giant powder
Is one of the most dangerous explosives
known. A miner is never safe where
i Is used. They use this powder at the
Glass mine. The time arrived to fire a
shot. II was about o'clock. McKin-
mis- took his candle, his cartridge and a
fuse in his right hand. and holding a
stick of powder in his left, was cutting
off a portion of the stick preparatory To
firing the shot. Lair and Kavanaugh
were standing few feet distant. By
some means a, spark struck ,the. fuse
causing il to "spit. exploding the cap
and the stick of powder which he held
in his left hand. The report was terrific
Lair was hurled distance of fifteen
feet in the drift, and, although receiving
but few bruises, the shock to his ner.

not soon recover. Kavanaugh, who was

The flesh was completely torn from his
right leg, leaving the bone exposed.
his left arm was mashed to Jelly, his
mouth ripped from ear TO ear, causing
most of his teeth to drop from his up
per jaw. His left eve was driven out of
his head, and more than l60 small stones
imbedded in his body. Word was inn

and help at once descended the shaft.

surface, and from there conveyed to the

The condition of Kavanaugh is much

Too much care cannot be exercised by
men who are working in mines in this
camp. Familiarity with danger begets
carelessness, and then occurs such acci-
dents as the one yesterday. ..a ....

A Cat story.
concordia CN. H. Patriot

Nolcorulh IN III IutrlOr
The feline is usually the object of
bootack speculation or hot water baths,
and if the quill-driyer takes them as the
object of an article, il generally drifts
into a TRADE upon their unreasonable
habits and the jarring music of their
unreasonable and matin songs. A cat
belonging to one of the North End fami
lies, was sent away TO London Ridge
several months ago, with an idea that
rustic air and association would improve
its condition, If not its morals, Although
the Ridge is quite place for campmeet-
ings, although Thomas was provided
with the best of bed and board, there
existed in his breast a quiet longing to
return once more TO Concordia and gam
Dol with his old chums in the back
wards of Ward -Four. So one dark night
about week ago, he laid in hearty
supper and started on his journey. What
his ls,adventures were on the route, bow
many guideboards he examined, how
many inquiries he made in feline Ian
guare of other cats along the road, will
probably never be known. But he ap-
peared one cool morning in the kitchen,
inventoried the stock Of canaries thN
had been imported since his departure,
iunched off roast that stood on the
table, and was ready for breakfast when
the family sat down to meat. There
was no mistaking the cat and no doubt
about his travels; and the family is now
debating which to dispose of for pets,
the John Thomas, which. shows such
remarkable attachment and instinct, or
the birds, whom the cat looks upon as
interlopers and legitimate prey.

A Gigantic Steamship.

The English papers state that the In
man Steamship Company has signed a
contract with the Barrow Ship building
Company to build gigantic steel steam
ship for the Atlantic service. II is to be,
in dimensions, steam and appointments,
the most superb steamer in. the world,
not excepting the Sahara and the Pari.

atlantic lines, which are to be Of about
300 tons burden, 800 feet in length, 80
feet in beam and II feet in depth of
hold. Agents of steamship companies,
in speaking of these new and large
steamships, said there was a great need
for larger vessels in the /. European pas
senger trade, but owing to the S,lndy
Hook bar aud the increased draft OF
larger vessels, there had been some hesi-
fancy in supplying this need. .'s ''

THE STAFF OF LIFE.
The Delicious Quality of Bread Made In
... spain.

Nnah.
f. The bread in the south of Spain is de-
/ liclous; it is-white as snow, close as cake
and yet very light; the -four is most adj
mirable, for the wheat is good and pure,
and the bread well kneaded. The way
I they make this bread is as follows: from
large, round panniers filed with wheat,
they take handful at time, sorting it
most carefully and expeditiously and
throwing every defective grain into
another basket. This done, the wheat is
ground between two circular stones, as
il was ground in Egypt two thousand
years ago, the requisite rotary motion
being given by a blindfolded mule,
which PAGES round and round with un-
tiring patience, bell being attached to
his neck, which, as. long as he is in
movement, tinkles on; and when il
stops he is urged to his duty by the shout
of lara mula" from some one within
hearing. When ground the wheat is
slfted through three sieves, the last Of
these being so fine that only the
pure flour can pass through it; this is of
a pale apricot color. II is mixed with
only sufficient water, with a little salt
in it, to make into dough- a very small
quantity of leven or fermenting mixture
is added. The Scripture says: "A little
leaven leaveneth the whole lump" but
to avoid tire trouble of kneading. many
put as much leayen or yeast IN one batch
of household bread as in Spain would
last them week for the six or eight
donkey loads of bread they send every
day from their oven. The dough made,
it is put In sacks and carried on the
donkey's backs to the oven in the centre
of the village. so as to bake it immedi-
ately it is kneaded. On arriving there
the dough is divided into portions weigh
ing three pounds eacn. Two long, mar
row wooden tables or trestles are then
placed down the room, and a curiaus
sight may be seen, About twenty men,
bakers, come in and arrange themselves
on one side of the table. A lump of
dough is handed the nearest, which he
begins kneadlng and knocking about
with all his might for three or four min
utes, and then passes it on to his neigh
bor, who does the same and so on sue
cessively until all have kuaaded ii, when
it becomes rs soft as newputty and ready
for the oven. OF course as soon as the
first baker has handed the first lump to
his neighbor, another is given to him,
and so on until the whole quantity of
dough is kneaded by them all. The
bakers wives shape the loayes for the
oven, and some OF them are very small.
They are baked Immediately. The
ovens are very large, and are not heated
by fires under them, but quantity of
twigs Of the herbs of sweet marjoram
and thyme, which cover the hills in great
profusion, are put in the oven and ig-
nited, They heat the oven to any cx-
tent required, and as the bread gets
baked the oven gets gradually colder, so
the bread is never burned. They knead
the bread in Spain with such force that
the palm of the hand and the second
joints of the fingers are covered with
corns, and it SO effects the chest that
they cannot work more than two hours
at time. 80.

Mackaye's Novel Theater.

For Mr.. Steele Mackaye, the manager,
Wisedell and Kimball, the architects,
have designed what will be the finest
theater in this city. They have taken
the walls of what at one time was Daly's
Fifth-avenue Theater, and what has
been known as the Madison Square
Theater, in Twenty-fourth street, and
made such transformation in the in
terror, that when the work is completed
the oldest theater-goer will not be able TO
recognize the old house.
The grand feature of the theater is the
stage, which has been constructed under
the supervision of Nielsen Waldron. 1t
is a moveable,' double stage, and is, in
reality, huge elevator. Ii is 81 feet in
width, 80 feet in depth, and the space
between the two floors is 25 feet inches.
While the first act Of a play is being
presented on the lower stage, the scene
ry for the second act is to be sent on the
upper floor. Then, when the curtain
falls, the great elevator Is lowered, until
the upper floor reaches the level of the
foot-lights. The lower floer is then in a
deep pit excavated in the basement, and
the scenery can be removed and new
set made. The double stage is to be
worked by 4 system of friction wheels,
and it is thought that eight men can
easily raise and lower it. If it proves to
be a success, there will be no necessity
for the curtain of the Madison Square
Theater to remain down more than two
or three minutes between any two acts OF
a drama tfN

Fighting with a Wildcat.
y Y. Times.

Wllhelmus Westfall a farmer residing
IN Montague township, Sussex county,
n. Y, accompanied by his son Alexan-
der, went fox-hunting few days ago IN
the woods along the New Jersey bank of
the Delaware River. While passing
through the woods the hunters sepa-
rated, Wilhelmus, accompanied bv a
hound, kept close along the river. Hav-
ing gone short distance, the dog was
heard barking iiercely. Wilhelmus
thought he had come upon fox track.
and was in close pursuit. He went in
the direction of the barking, and soon
came upon the dog, which was engaged
wildcat. He took his rifle from his
shoulder, and, taking deliberate aim,
pulled the trigger. The cap exploded,
but the gun failed to- discharge. lie
placed another cap on the tube and
again pulled the trigger. The gun
would not go off. By this time the
dog was badly whipped, and, whining
and limping, il made its escape into the
thicket The cat then sneaked slowly
away through the bushes towards the
river. .
Wilhelmus was determined to capture
the animal, and thought he could con-
quer it by beating out its brains with the
butt Of his gun. He started in pursuit
and overlook the animal. which stopped
when the hunter had approached within
few feet of it. The plucky hunter eau
tiously took one step after another, when
suddenly, and with eyes glaring like
balls Of fire, the animal turned and made
a spring, landing upon the shoulders of
the hunter, and soon succeeded in in
fiicting several CHASTITY wounds upon his
face, His body was also lacerated in a
terrible manne r, and his clothes were
torn into shreds After fierce struggle,
the {, Id man succeeded in loosening the
cats hold, when his son, who had heard
his crles, arrived. Seeing that his father
was in great danger of being killed by
the animal, Alexander took deliberate
aim and fired. The animal gave an up
ward spring and fell to the ground dead.
The animal measured nearly six feet in
, length, and weighed fifty pounds 1t
was the.only one of its kind that has
been KILLED in this region for upwards
of fifty years. ..r

Is London, on the Surrey side, many
OF the horse cars are drawn by mules,
and these mules come all the way from
Kentucky. There is a curious old law
still cx,ant in London which forhids the
use of mules or donkeys for purposes OF
traction, but nobody pays any attention
to IT, What we call in this country the
"bobtail" car, which does away with
the conductor, and requires that passen-
gers put their fare in a box, has been
taken to London, and seems TO be as
popular there as it is unpopular here. =
