Narrow Escape of Ten Men.

Saturday, Nov. Is, 1881, at Laurel
of horses killed under peculiar cir
cumstances. Near the mill is steep
side hill on the bank of the river,
along this is narrow road along
which the loads of logs are hauled for
stocking the saw mill. The teams are
driven close To the side of this steep
decent, when the chains holding the
logs are oosened and they roll with
great force and rapidity into the
stream below. On the day Of the ac-
cident young man named Frank
Price, careful and trusted driver.
drove his team with load of logs 10
the place of unloading. The ice COW
ering the road made it quite difficult
for the horses to stand, and on this
OCCASION one of the horses slipped, be-
fore the logs were unloadcd, when the
driver attempted to hold him up with
the rains, which he failed in doing.
the horses, load and all, driver eX
cepted, were violently precipated down
the abrupt declevity, landing with
fatal effect on the ice OF the frozen
river below. One of the horses was
instantly killed the other one sustain
ing injuries from which he died in a
short time. The mil hpnds witnessed
the accident and at once rushed 10 the
rescue of the team and. for aught they
knew disabled driver While these
men, ten in number. were extracting
the horses and bobs from the logs, an
other team, following the one which
met the accident, drove along the road
above, and the driver all unconscious
of the men below, was unlOosening
the chains, as usual, to allow the logs
to rush in rapid succession to the ice
beneath. Arrested in the act of loos-
ening the chain by the screams of Il
woman, Mrs. Geo. Sticfles, who lived
near, and whose husband was among
the men at the foot of the hill, the
driver paused, and when he ascer-
| tanned the cause of the woman's
screams, was almost stupefied with
horror on glancing down the hill to
discover the men there, which by his
hand in another instant would have
been dashed to pieces by the great logs
rolling with the force of II sledge- ham
mer on their unguarded heads. The
driver of the second team supposed
that the team ahead had unloaded in
the usual manner and had proceeded
along the hill, and down the opposite
side after another load. We are very
glad, indeed to write this item as a
what-might-have- been, instead of
writing that ten men in the vigor of
manhood had been hurled from the
light of day to the darkness of
eternity.

NEW INDUSTRIES UNEARrHED BY
THE LAST CENSUS.
A New York letter contains some
fresh gossip concerning curious busi
ness uueurthed by the census dcpu
ties. The superintendent Of the Brook
lHn census WAS mach puzzled some
weeks ago upon discovering that there
was some Use made OF old shoes, which
was not known to any of tie deputies
in his employ, and could not be dis
covered. 1t was found that old shoes
We're collected in large quantities 10y
ragpickers and jumkmen, and sold 10
certain mysterious persons, for what
purpose no one could divine. 1t was
well known that PriSsian blue is made
of old Leaf her, but the persons engaged
in that business were perfectly willing
to have their works Inspected. After
much inquiry and Investigation, il
was found tnat The old shoes were
made into Jamaica rum. When they
came from the ragpickers, the good
pieces We're cut out and sold to small
cobblcrs for patching purposes. The
rest was distilled with spirits. colored
with burned sugar, and sold as Janlai-
CT rum, and the most singular fact
about the business Is tllat IL Is bought.
not by saloon keepers, but by drug
gists, who pride themselves on the pu-
rity OF theirarticles. Many industries
were iound.in which. though The value
of the product Mas considerable, nn
value was attributed 10 the raw mate
rial. One man who made tomato cat
sup acknowledged TO making lS,05d
worth OF catsup every year, but said
that his raw material cost nothing.
When pressed for an explanation, he
said he sent to the factories where to-
matoes are canned III big tubs, iutC
which the peeiings and trimmings oI
the tomatoes were thrown by the men
who prepared them ior canning. The
mat crial he got for the trouble of car
rying it away. He ground it up, fla
vored it aud sold it for catsup 10 tn,
