How IL Young Mans Slumber Was Rutiely
Interrupted.

How II Young Mans Slulnber Was Rudely
Interrupted.
Some men can sleep anywhere and on
anything, except a lounge. There is some
thing about an ordinary lounge that will
drive away sleep from the sleepiest person
in the world. A person will 60 to church
and sit right straight up in pew and go to
sleep while the minister is trying his best
to keep the sleeper awake, but let the same
man 20 home and lie down on lounge and
he can't go to sleep to save him. Nobody
knows what it is about a lounge that drives
sleep away. Harry Morrison, young gas
filter of Eau Claire, who is boarding ut his
brother in-law's, was asked to sleep on
lounge in the sitting room, as there was
sickness in the house, and it might be nee.
essary to call on him in the night to 90 for
the doctor. He never was much on
lounges anyway, but there was nothing
mean about him, SO he prepared to 60 to
his rest SO as to be handy in case of emer-
gency. He camped down, and for two
back of the lounge would rear up and hook
him in the back, and than it would stab
him somewhere else. The springs would
work through the cover and corkscrew
themselves into his fiesh and every hair of
the lounge-cover seemed to stand on
end and run into his vital parts. He
got nervous and wished they would call him
and send him clear to Chippewa Falls after
doctor. Finally he got up and went into
the bath room, where there was a bath tub
which looked to him as though it would
make downy bed, such as an angel might
sleep in. compared to the lounge. He is no
angel but he got some quilts and pillow
and put them into the bath-tub and Law
down in it, and in five minutes he was
asleep. Most young men kick more or less
in their sleep, and Harry is no exception.
He kicked and his foot came in contact
with the faucet and turned the water on.
The cold water struck the quilts and made
no noise to awaken him, but gradually the
cold fluid found it's way up his trouser-legs
along his spine, and in fact all over him

Singular Case Of strong vitality.

that when pulled out, some of the brains

In letter written by Mr.. Charles Darwin
to Prof. Holmgren on vivisection, he says:
mo one. unless he is grossly ignorant Of
what science has done for mankind, can
entertain any doubt of the incalculable bene-
fits which will hereafter be derived from ply
siology, not only by man but the lower
animals. Look, for instance, at Pasteur's
results in modifying the germs of the most
malignant diseases, from which animals
will, in the first place, receive more relief
than man."

Steadfast in the Faith of their Fore
fathers.

from the Nineteenth Century
In sailing down the Ganges during the
month Katik, our October, one may pass
in the course of a day half dozen holy
fairs, each with a multitude Of pilgrims
equal to the population of large city.
All of them are rendered picturesque by
the tents and the equipsges of the wealthy
the variety of the animals and the bright
coloring in which the natives delight-those
defendants of the ancient Aryans of India,
in many respects the most wonderful race
that ever lived on earth, as Prof Max
Muller calls them. At night all the tents
and booths are Illuminated, so that the
scene is hardly less animated by night
than by day, and all without tumult and
disorder. Every one of these localities is
hallowed by some NEUROLOGICAL tradition,
and the frmest faith is reposed by the
pilgrims in the truth of those traditions.
Engrafted for hundreds, nay, thousands of
years, in the minds of the people, they
have grown up with them articles of
faith, strengthened with their strength.
Your words are good, Sahib, your
teaching is excellent" said some
native headmen of villages to Christian
missionary in Oudh, "but 90 and preach
elsewhere. We do not want it. Our faith
ers' faith is enough for us. What should
we do in your heaven? You want us to go
there when we die. We had rather be with
our fathers who went before us. What
should we do in the heaven of the Sahibs?"
This is no fanciful picture. These are the
very words spoken in Hindunstani to an
enthusiastic missionary by the simple vii
layers. And what could we say in replyP
He felt the force of them, though he did
not allow them to paralyze his efforts. The
religious Melas are attended by thousands
of devotees on the same principle that
prompted the villagers words to the mis-
sionary. They were observed by their
fathers. Generation after generation has
! attended them. Hindu or Moslem OF
Christian the rulers may be, but the Melas
are still the same, and looking back into
the vista of vanished centuries, we still
see the same crowds, the same devotions,
the same amusements, food, clothing,
and attendant animals. When Britons were
painted savages it was so, and now that
Victoria, queen of England is empress OF
India, it is so still.

AT the regular meeting of the Board
Of Street Commissioners held Monday
evening, the following resolution, intro
duced by Commissioner Voss, was adopt
ed /:
Resozved, That it is the sense of the
Board that an Iron bridge be built across
Rock river, connecting Main street with
West Avenue, and that the Committee
on Streets and Bridges present plan at
the next regular meeting of this Board,
embodying the following principles,
to wit THAI the bridge be shortened IS
feet on each end, and new abutments to
be built for a bridge of SO feet wide, and
also pier in the middle, the whole to be
| covered by an Iron arch bridge Of 2
spans, Of &c feet each.
Ought not our good city fathers to go
little slow on their project as contem-
plated by the above resolution To pro-
perly carry out these plans for an iron
bridge would involve an expenditure of
from $4,000 to $4,000. In view of the
the additional Expenditures that must be
made to put other bridges within the city
limits in order, would it be wise in us to
go to such great expense at this time in
building bridge at Main street? We
believe calm survey of the field would
dictate that such an outlay as is outlined
in the resolution would be both unwise
and uncalled for under our present cir
cumstances, and we do not hesitate to
affirm that our taxpayers generally take
this view of the matter. The present
Main street bridge can be restored to as
good condition as before for an outlay
ofnot more than $500. Under ordinary
circumstances it would then be good fol-
ten years more. By that time, perhaps
we would be better able to afford the lux
ury of a hadsome iron bridge. Besides
all this, shall business suffer and languist

EntOu's Great Loss of Ice.

A great misfortune has overtaken SIN.
Eaton in the loss of his stock of ice stored
in his houses at his Soda Water Manu-
factory, in the Fourth ward, by means of
the great rise of water in the river, the
freshet taking out a portion of the build
ings and the water flooding the ice to a
considerable depth, causing it to melt a
large portion also floating off, Mr.. Eaton
estimates his loss at about three thousand
dollars. Fortunately for Mr.. Eaton, as well
as the community, he has still good
stock of ice yet untouched and in first
rate condition, for his customers during
the summer season. In the past Mr.. Eaton
has looked after the interests of his con-
sumers to his own financial detriment.
During several seasons, owing to q search
ty of ice in Milwaukee and Chicago, Mr..
Eaton could have disposed of his stock of
ice to parties in those cities at prices that
would have brought him double the profit
to be obtained from supplying it to his
customers here, but he declined the offers,
preferring to stand by his patrons even at
considerable financial loss to himself. In
the coming season these matters should
have due consideration with Mr.. Eaton's
customers. They should at least be as lib
eral and fair with him as he was with
them on the occasions referred to. We
hope then that Mr.. Eatons friends will
not be too exacting and particular re-
garding their ice supply during the heat
ed term before us. Mr. Eaton will deal
out to his customersall the ice they bar
gain for, but there must be no grumbling
if there is not the liberality used in re-
gard to the weight given that there has
been in former seasons. He has plenty
of ice for all his patrons if reasonable
and proper distribution is made of it.
More than this none can expect or should
demand under the circumstances.
