An Athlete sold.

An athletic newspaper man, whc
justly prhes himself upon his muscle,
went into the poSt-olfice this morning
aud engaged in a friendly test ot
strength with one If the clerks. In
this the journalistic party 2an" OIL

ment arose between the two az to the
relative strength of their lungs, when
the clerk with merry twinkle i'll his
eye turned to litt'c brass instrument,
which he handed The newspaper man,
with the remark "ThiS is "A lung test,
er; if you turn the little wheel On top
your lungs are sound
Now the Jung tester was simply a
brass cylinder full Of -four, with u
pipe SO arranged that when you blow
into it the Hour comes pouring ont full
into your face. The Young man bit
eagerly, He took a long breath, cleared
his throat and expanded himself until
he looked like an Inflated frog. Then
placing his lips to the tube he blew
with might and main. The result may
be imagined. He was completely cov-
cred with -four and the laugh was de-.
cidedlv against him. He took it all in
good humor, and vowed 10 he even.

The Holladay Claim.

The claim of Ben. Holiday,
formerly of this state, has been so
long before congress that most Of
our readers are more or less
familiar with IT. Mr.. Holladay
had lines of stages carrying Uni
ted States mail on the route TO
California during the civil war,
and suffered pecuniary loss by
having his trips delayed, his horses
run efI, killed by the Indians, etc.
The bill before congress states his
damages at S526,739. Several
amendments 10 reduce the amount
were offered IN the senate, all oi
which were voted down, except
that offered by Senator Cockrell,
who placed the amount due Mr.
Holladay at 100000. The amend
ment was adopted, and the bil
passed.
