An amusing application of the won.
ders of the telephone as an assistant de,
tective of crime, comes to us from
Julian. Several horses were recently
stolen in that neighbcrhood, and suspi.
cion fell upon certain Indian as the
thief. Some one having introduced a
telephone up there, the same was being
exhibited, when it occurred to the own
er of the stolen horses to get the Indian
to come in and hear the "Great Spirit
talk. The Indian took one of the cups,
and was thrilled with astonishment at
being apparently SO near the Great
Keeper of the happy hunting grounds.
After some little time spent in wonder
ment, the Indian was soiemnly COM
manded by the "Great Spirit" to ''give
up those stolen horses - Dropping the
cup as if he mad been shot, the Indian
Immediately confessed to having stolen
the horses, and tremblingly promised
if his life was spared, he would restore
the ''caballos" at once, and he did so.

NATHANIEL HAWTHORNE once wrote
to lady, who was one of his most val
ued English friends, letter from which
a reviewer in the Athenaum makes a
characteristic quotation. She asked
him to fancy ball, and he answered:
"Mr. Hawthorne is quite sensible of
his own folly and absurdity in declin-
ing an invitation which any other man
would go down on his knees to get. He
finds himself, indeed, in the position of
an owl or bat when invited to take a
pleasure trip in the sunshine; he can
not deny that it would be most delight
ful affair, but still feels it better for him
to stay in his dusky hole than go blink
ing about among other peoples enjoy
ments. The truth is. Mr.. III. has all his
life been undera spell, from which 1t is
now too late to free himself-or, rather
he was born solitary brute, and ne
cannot otherwise account for his now
being able to resist Mrs. H-'s invita-
ton.

s. GRAND RAPIDS, WIS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 1885,

30th: The contract between the Pacific
mail company and overland railroads,
by which the steamship company re-
ceived a subsidy for agreeing not to re-
duce rates below those of the railroad
companies, expired in May last. The
Pacific mail company, after waiting in
vain for more favorable contract, de-
termined to put the passenger and freight
rates between New York and San Fran
cisco low enough to prevent undercut-
ting by the railroads, and has made ar
rangements for additional carrying faciL
tiles between the two points.
P. a. SAWYER, fusionist secretary of
state, has yielded, and, under protest,
given up all the state property in his
possession, says an Augusta telegram of
Feb. End. On Saturday Sawyer deliver
ed to the republican secretary of state
the state seal, the returns of the votes for
governor, county officers, senator's and
presentatives, council records, and all
the reports of the executive council of
1878 relating 10 the election returns.
Sawyer was unable to find the key of the
safe. He says he received legal advice
yesterday to hold out in his position, but,
as he was satisfied the sheriff had war
rant for his arrest, he did not choose to
make a martyr of himself,and has there
fore given up his claim to the office. =
THE gigantic railroad combinations of
Jay Gould are beginning to excite feel
ings of distrust and alarm among the
leading business men of this city, says a
New York paper of Feb. end. The feel
ing is growing daily that it is time to
put some limitation upon the power of
individuals TO exercise absolute dictator
ship over the highways of traffic. A Pc
tition to congress calling attention to
this subject is being circulated in all the
exchanges, and is receiving many sig
natures. The petition ,recites that great
alarm is felt at the rapidly growing pow
er of railroad corporations, which feel
ing is greatly intensified by their policy
Of consolidating under the contiol of a
few individuals all the principal compel
ing roads to the Pacific seaboard, thus
forming gigantic and powerful organi-
zation to control absolutely the indus
trial and commercial interests of the
country and the value of its products
They exercise and abuse their power by
discriminating unjustly between indi,
viduals and corporations.

A MINER tells the following incident Of
John W. Mackay, the wealthy Califor-
MIA miner: "I knew that in a second or
two, he would be horribly mangled by
the flying rocks. was the nearest man
out of shelter, and jumped into the
drift to warn him. AS I exposed my
self I saw him look about bewildered.
He had evidently heard the fuse and re-
allied that he could not get out of
harms way. as there were four gentle
men with him on the ladder who block
ed up the only way of escape. As l re-
allied the situation l called out: "This
way, john" He srrang toward me,
and cleared at least twelve feet at a
bound. Just as he reached me the
blast went off, pieces flying all about,
but Mackay had escaped"

REV. HAYDEN said to an interviewer,
since his trial, that he had no doubt
that u majority of the jury were on his
side. but he was especially afraid of
one Hotchkiss, juror from Prospect

nothing" he said. 81 watched the faces
OF the jury. This man Hotchkiss paid
no attention TO the testimony of the
case, and l was convinced that he had
made up his mind against me. There

they stood eleven to one" Mr. Hayden
