A DEER SToRY-The Humboldt, Cal
iiornia, Times, has the following:
Yesterday great curiosity was
placed on our table. Sunday Mr.. E.
Sharp, of Arcade, was ont on Boyan-
toms prairie on deer hunt. He saw
large five point buck, and. brought
it down with his rifle. Taking off the
hide and securing the heart and other
rare bits, he started home. On arriv-
ing there, Mrs. Sharp boiled the heart,
and when the meal was ready placed
it on the table. In attempting to cut
the heart, the knife struck something
hard The lady split the heart open,
aud in The flesh part the flint barb Of
the arrow was found. 1t must have
been there long time, as the flesh
was caloused all around it, and the
scar, where the barb entered, is plain
to be seen. This is quite curiosity,
as only a few such instances are
known to be on record"

Ret in the Pigs

Irish farmers are singing songs Of
triumpbs over their oats and potatoes.
Such crops have not been known for
thirty years. Potatoes are selling in
some towns for three pence stone,
and in others for three and half
pence. Whether this amazing crop is
due TO the imported seed of the far
famed Champions, or to the weather,
it is difficult to say, but the fact is in
disputable. Still the Irish farmer will
always have his grievance in the back
ground After admitting the excel
lence of the potato crop, one of them
suddenly looked up and said, "but
we're bet in the pigs" "Hew So
what do you meant" "Well, other
years we could rear two pigs on tho
black potatoes, and this year we've
