Old jim Walkup has the -reputa
ton among bis friends OF being rath'
err close. His enemies say he is too
mean to die. Not long since an old
colored man. Uncle Mace. who had
been in the Walkup family all his life,
and who refused TO leave his old mas.
ter after the war, died in this city in
extreme poverty. When the colOred
delegation went around taking up
collections to plant Uncle Mace they
called on old Jim Walkup. That was
the first intimation he had of the
death Of the old family servant, and
used the most extraordinary language
in praising the faithful old Uncle
Mace.
"How much are you gwine to con-
tribute to de funeral expenses" asked
the foreman of the assessment commit
tee.
"Not a cent" groaned old Walkup
hiding his face and shaking all over
to conceal his emotion. "IfI was Il

idea that / helped put him under the
ground. It's too painful to talk about

VARIETIES Or WooING.-In olden
times it was the fashion for a sutton to
20 down on his Bonded knees to lady
when he asked her TO become his wife,
which with very stout gentlemen, was
an uncomfortable proceeding. The
way in which Daniel Webster propos
ed to Miss Fletcher was more modern,
being at the same time neat and poetic.
Like many other lovers, he was caught
holding a skein of thread or wool
which the lady had been unravelling.
"Gracie," said he, eve have been
untying knots. Let us see if we can
not tie one which will not unite in a
lifetime. With a piece of tape he
fashioned half true lovers knot, Miss
Fletcher perfected it and a kiss put
the seal to the symbolical bargain.
Richard Steele wrote to the lady OF
his heart: Dear Mistress Sherlock
(there were no misses in those days
| am tired of calling you by that
name; therefore say day when you
will take that off, madam, your devo-
ted, humble servant, Richard Steele. y
She fixed the day accordingly.

AN ELECTRICAL BALLoTER.-An
apparatus has been divised by resi-
dent of Syracuse for recording votes
cast in political and other societies.
1t provides number of knobs hidden
from all in the room except the person
Immediately in front of them. Each
knob represents candidate and the
voter has merely to press whichever
he chooses. At each touch bell
rings, thus making more than one vote
by the same person impossible without
detection. All the bells ring alike.
When the voting is finished register
on the side of the machine opposite the
knobs is discovered, and the result OF
the ballot is seen in plain figures.

Fail of a Nevada Peak.
Homer Hlder.

About IL O'Clock Thursday morning
the whole town was startled by a ter
rife roar and jar like an earthquake,
which sent people flying out of their
houses in all directions. A glance up
the side of Mount Olsen revealed the
cause of the phenomenon. One of the
sharp peaks Of iOliated granite near the
summit, lOoSened by the late rains, had
tOppled over and was rushing down q
steep ravine directly toward the centre
of the town with terrific force, crushing
and grinding everything in its pathway.
For few moments it looked as though
several houses were doomed to inevita-
bic destruction, but fortunately the slide
scattered and was checked in the talus
at the foot of the cliffs, causing it to
stop short Of any of the buildings. One
immense boulder, weighing hot less
than fifty tons, came down with fearful
velocity, striking the rock bench above
the town and breaking it into a thous-
and fragments, which stopped on the
flat a few rods from the China houses
ON Clard street. During the progress of
the slide everybody was stricken with
CONSERVATION, and many people sought
safety in wild flight. 1t is estimated
that at least 800 to 1000 tons of rock
came down in the slide.

Lay a Painting Person Down.


1t is surprising how everybody rushes

erect. There must be an instructive APP

cumbent position death is more immi-

day while Il lady faInting was held up

apparently dying, and | believe that IT

would really have died. | laid her head
down on Il lower level than her body,
and Immediately color returned to her
lips and cheeks, and she became con-
SciOuS. To the excited group Of friends
| said: Always remember this fact
namely: fainting is caused by a want
of blood in the brain; the heart ceases
to act with sufficient force to send the
usual amount of blood to the
brain, and hence the person loses
consciousness because the function of
the brain ceases. Restore the blood to
the brain and instantly the person re-
covers. Now, though the blood is pro-
PEELED to all parts of the body by the ac-
ton of the heart, yet it is still under the
influence of the laws of gravitatiOn. In
the erect position the blood ascends to
the head against gravitatlon. and the
supply to the brain is diminished, as
compared To the recumbent position,
the hearts pulsation being equal. II,
then, you place person sitting whose
heart has nearly ceased to beat, his
brain will fail To receive blood, while if
you lay him down, with the head lower
than the heart, blood will run into the
brain 10y the mere force Of gravity; and,
in fainting, i'm sufficient quantity to re-
store consciousness. Indeed, Nature
teaches US how to manage the fainting
persons, for they always fall, and fire.
