NARROW EsoAPE.-One day last week Mar
tin Case. of Reavlle vicinity, together with
his son Winfield, aged II years, and young
man named Dana Lowe, were saving down a
large tree, depending upon seeking safety in
fight as the tree began to fall But Winfield
did not run fast enough and was caught. The
weight of the tree was rapidly crushing the
life out of the boy, and his father and Lowe
worked as never men worked to release him.
When finally rescued he was black in the
face, for bis respiration bad been well nigh
choked off for many minutes. 1t was ascer-
tanned that though SO near death the young
man had escaped with whole bones, and ii no
internal Injuries were sustained he will soon
be all right Had be fallen ten inches either
way when caught by the tree his death would
have observation-disclosures it is believed. Hun

the progress of this cause-doing whatever
and whenever you can, with no thought o.
having your deeds trumpeted to the world
be not discouraged. You fight not for per-
sonal glory or selfish motives, but for the
noble cause of temperance and the good of
the inebriate. You toll for the uplifting of
your fellow and his final redemption
from the curse Of rum. Let this mighty ga
thering-the result of your labors-encourage
you. The day of browning will come, and
the Master viii know His stewards.

"A party Of twenty seven Hungarian emf
grants stopped over night in this city last
Friday. They were on their way to the min
ing regions in Luzerne Co., Pa. They came
on foot from New York, where they landed
some days ago. They stopped the night
previous in Trenton, where Councilman A. A.
Skirm kindly secured them lodgings in Co.
DIS armory, and they were we'll fed at the
expense of the city. Here they received
lodgings in the odoriferous city lock up. They
are worthy people seeking for employment in
strange land, and deserved kindness beyond
that dealt out to professional tramps. They
gave money to some one in New York to buy
them tickets to Easton, and he decamped and
left most of them without means to pay their
way.
