AS Mr.. j. w. Beatty, general
agent of several large insurance
companies and q highly respected
citizen of this place, was retiring,
about ten o'clock last night, he
was suffering with neuralgia in
the face and took through mistake,
solution of corrosivesu.. Ultimate
or bug poison. Fortunately the
telephone had been placed in his
house yesterday morning and his
physician was at once notified,
who telephoned the usual anti
dotes which were used with good
effect.
He is now resting comfortably
and out of all danger. 1t can be
said with safety that one life has
been saved by the telephone AZ
Mr.. Beatty lives almost mile from
any drug store and he would prob
ably have been too far gone fol
the physicians to have rendered
any service by the time they couls
have reached there.

John Cowden was sure the river
and harbor bill would be called up
to-day and showed his spite at a
defeat of his sham outlet system
by firing a parting shot at the ap-
preparation for the Mississippi
river. He sent through the mail
to-day a circular to each member
of the House, and in this circular
he calls the appropriation for the
Mississippi the first installmeni
of a one hundred million steal and
he declares that the river commits
sion is an agent of Congress, and
as such agent should be dismissed
because in their first report they
told IL lies, which alleged lies ht
sets out in detail. He concludes
his circular by stating that If Con
gress will give him the pittianc'
which he asks to make Borgn'
outlet, he viii forever save thu
lower Mississippi valley from de
structiye floods and the scourg'
of yellow fever. As far as coul'
be discovered, the circular had NJ
effect whatever.

A Sliding HlIl.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
A noteworthy sequel to the phe-
nominal thunderstorm Of last Sat.
urday night occurred ON the fol
lowing Sunday morningat a point
in Kentucky, bordering on the
Ohio river, nearly opposite River
side, Ohio. The Dry Creek turn
pike runs along the riyerbank
from Ludlow westward, and for
much Of its length it is crowded
rivorward by encroaching hills,
which are about two hundred feet
high, and with an average inclina-
ton Of perhaps fifty degrees to
tho horizon, with interrupted front
border the river. At q point near
" opposite Riverside, four or five
miles from Cincinnati, about six
o'clock on Sunday morning, some
persons standing on the pike saw
a piece of the hill slide out upon
the pike, and Immediately there
after patch of the hill side be-
tween three and four hundred feet
in width, moving parallel with the
river, by over two hundred feet
in width, moving parallel with the
river, by over two hundred feet IN
length, began to move riverward
Upon il stood four magnificent
elms and a number of stumps ans
> brushwood. lt
!. Moving slowly and majestically
onward it swept away the pike a
, though il were mist, and over
whelmed an orchard which lay be
: tween the pike and the river. tn
conGguration of the hills at thiI
point is In natural terraces 0

the lowest terrace. AS the III

The Man Who Was Senator Chandler,


lDctIOit rItt Iltss.l
One day in 1864 Senator Zach
Chandler was a passenger on the
train from Owosso to Lansing,
and, strangely enough, no one on
the car had any idea of his identity.
Two men had the seat behind him,
and from talking of war they drift
ed to politics, and naturally enough
Chandler's name became mixed up,
Both men were rod hot against
him, and directly one of them OBJ
served: ats a wonder to me that
some one doesn't shoot the old
blood.lctter!n "Oh, he'll got his
dose yet, and don't you forget it Y
replied the other. The Senator
turned slowly around, took good
look at both, and then said: "Gen
tlemen, please speak a little lower
| am Senator Chandler myself!h
He thought he had them frozet
solid, but he was mistaken. He
had scarcely turned his head When
one of them leaned forward and
replied: "That's all right, pard, 1
you can beat the conductor will
it, but don't try to stuff MS. We
met the old chap back in Owosso
not an hour ago, waiting to &c
East, and it cost me twenty-five
dollars in cash and a silver watch
to call his hand. If you've a new
racket trot it out--we are no give
aways!"

In addition to the main line it is
the intention of the company to
throw out a branch line from some
point on the line to Arkansas City

very short while. 1t is expected
to have the entire line completed

Mojave just after the train had started.
The telegraph was brought into requisi-
ton and the culprit was arrested as

dollars of the stolen money was found on
his person.

Wells, Fargo & Co.'S Express Office
has been completely metamorphosed in
ternally within the past week, making
it not only one of the most convenient,
but the best arranged, business offices on
the coast. therefore, the outer office was
numbered up with packages and persons
having business to transact ran the risk
Of breaking their shins against the nu-
merous packages lying around. Now
all this is changed. The scales have
been removed, and by new disposition
of the counters and the putting in of
new doors, the freight department is
separated, leaving tbefront office entirely
free for the transaction of business. The
walls and ceilings have been kalsomined
and the woodwork repainted' and
grained, giving everything spick and
span new appearance.
Thursday we were shown piece of
ore, taken from the Bedford Forest mine,
in the Calico Mountain District, by Mr..
M. A. Murphy, one of the owners of the
mine. This ledge is about sixty feet in
width, with stratas of pay ore from
eight to ten feet wide, at intervals across
the whole width of the ledge. Mr.. John
I. Reed has been assaying the crop
pings, the lowest assay going $3.50, and
the highest $1,000 per ton in silver.
The lucky owners are now contracting
with parties to sink q so foot shaft on
the ledge to more thoroughly prospect
the mine. The Bedford Forest mine is
continuation of the now noted Walthall
mine, which is being developed rapidly
into an immense body of ore. We con-
gratulate our genial townsman on his
bright prospects of soon becoming one
of California's bonanza kings.--Colton

EDITOR HERALD: Allow me the use of
your columns to complain of public
nuisance, On Buena Vista street, at a
place about in the rear of the Kimball
Mansion, an open pipe, coming from the
upper side of the street, discharges liquid
matter of very offencive odor upon the
surface of the ground, and pool has
been formed which will certainly breed
disease during the coming season if inn
mediate steps to prevent it be not taken.
The Health Officer, or some other one Of
the municipal authorities, should look to
this matter. w.

A Curious Railroad.

One of the most curious railroads in
the world is ten-inch gauge road run
ming from North Billerica,, Mass, to
Bedford. 1t was first hooted at by the
people, but was completed, making q
length of about eight and half miles.
There are eleven bridges. The rails
weigh twenty five tons to the mile. One
grade is l55 feet. The cars and engine
are constructed so as to be very near
the ground, giving them great safety.
The cars have an aisle, with seats on each
side, in the same manner as ordinary
cars have two seats. The cars weigh
but four and half tons; ordinary cars
weigh on an average eighteen tons.
Trains run at the rate of twenty miles
an hour with perfect safety. The
engine is placed behind the tender,
giving it greater adhesion to the track.
They weigh eight tons, and draw two
passenger and two freight cars. The
cost of the road was about S45O0 permile.
