came very near proving fatal. He had just
passed bend in the road and was coming
down hill, when he came upon mule walking
in the road just ahead. He did not check his
horses as he supposed the mule would turn
out, but when within a few yards Of the ami
NAL he discovered that it was sick and lame
and could not get out of the way. Just then
a Chinese wood wagon came in behind him
drawn by a sixhOrse team, which we're com
ing at full gallop. The leaders came smash
ing into his carriage, turning 1t over on him
and kicking it to pieces. He was thrown into
a ditch along side of the road while the wood
team passed on, the driver having lost control
of the horses About half an hour afterward
Park Barnes came along, and finding the
Doctor, brought him to the city. He was
senseless when picked up, and badly bruised
about the legs snd face. Internal inj
were at first feared, but at last accounts he
was doing much better.
No CHANCE FOR SPLIT. The Tribune of
last night contained report of the ratihca-
SOW the seeds of dissension in the party. 1t
alluded to the reluctance with which the
Mint men and number of leading politicians
signed the roll. The stab at the Mint was
made simply because not single copy Of the
Tribune in tax en- in that institution, and the
surs at the others were simply INDUCED in be-
cause they were Republicans. The Tribune
is anxious to see split in the Republican
party that it may be the organ Of something,
otherwise it will tumble inte the yawning
abyss of bankruptcy, upon the edge of which
it is now poised. The refutation Of it's utterly
inexcusabe lies, rests in the fact that the mum.
bers attendant upon any ordinary town gather
ing amounts to so much more than its daily
circulation, that this denial is not made from
any necessity, but simply that we may engage
in the cengenial pastime of exposing bung-

KISSING THE Cook A subscriber writes us
to ascertain how the practice of kissing the
cook, when the provisions were short, came in
to vogue. 1t was probably first practiced by
some man who chewed tobacco and ate lin !
burger cheese, and the cook was thus forced |
to take special pains with the meal fearing o.
culatory vengeance if she did not come up to |
the mark. The kiss should really take the
nature of a reward for meritorieus services,
and these kisses should be metea out Just in
proportion as the meal suits the eater. Let
40 one Dor under the impression that We
would advocate paying cooks in kisses. Only
he good coin of the realm should be advanced
regularly, and kisses should be thrown in as a
bonus to encourage the cookGf it be woman
If comely face and proportions) to more faith
ul endeavers, This rule only holds COED
With white cooks, Cinnamon barred.
