whale on CObb's Island.

On January 9th, at O'Clock p. NJ, an
alarm was given by one OF the men at the
lifc-saying station that there was whale
on the bar. The Surf-boat was launched
at once. The boat crew consisted OF Ma
than Cobb. Thomas Spady, Oliver Cornell,
w. J. Gofiigcn. and Warren ID. Cobb.
The gallant crew, full OF excitement,
sprung TO their oars, and the boat soon
reached the monster. Captain Cobb, with
his large double-barTelled gun, fired ten
times with the largest size shot, which
seemed to have no effect upon the whale.
The party had no harpOOn of any
consequence, or lance, but The party went
TO wOrl, to stop up his spout with a
pole. and that seemed TO have no effect.
The next movement was to Try the effect OF
an axe on the head Of the whale to cut hole
into him. which Captain Spady did with
great alaCrity and eXpcrtness, while the
fish was flOundering in the water; but this
did not even produce the desired effect
The party resolved tomake 4 last desperate
effort upon his life, and sharpening good
size pole, drove it into the hole which bad
been cut distance OF three feet and broke
it. The party had one small harpoon,
which they threw into the whale, but the
cord parted. by this time the tlde began
to rise and the whale began to get lit
tie lively. AS it seemed the party had
nothing with which they could conquer
the monster, Cornell insisted that the boat
should be pushed up alongside in order
for him to mount the whale. GOlligon said
the tail Of the fish was dangerous, and did
not like him a bit. Nathan was not afraid.
Spady thought there was no danger, as the
whale "waS right sick" Warren was
watching every move. While this talk was
going on the whale gradually moved of as
the tide rose. lie was not less than seventy
feet long, and grounded in twelve-feot wa
ter. How much beam he had no one could
tell. Night coming on probably saved the
whales life, for he went as straight out the
inlet, says one OF the party, as Captain Cor
nell could have stcercd his ycssel.-EoSteyp

Experiments with an AMERICAN BELL
Blake micrOphone were recently made at
the Royal Opera in Berlin. Half a mile
away the voices Of all the singers could be
easily distinguished, but the orchestra was
effective only when the brass instruments
paused. The addition OF drum or kettle
drum almost completely destroyed the eli-
cacy OF the telephone, as the strong vibra-
tons caused by these instruments over
power all the others. Unless these diff
cuities can be overcome the dreams OF hay
ing telephone operas in ones private par
Tor will have to be reduced to the limited
repertory OF the old-fashioned operas, in
which the orchestrltion is too simple and
void OF variety to please Il modern ear.

| Official announcement reaches our
office fixing the I'd day of July as the
opening date of the Chicago. Burling-
ton d. Quincy r. r. THROUGH LINE
from Chicago, Peoria or st. Louis to
Denver. The trains on the new line
will be equipped in tho style of COM
fort and elegance for which the " Bur-
lington Route" is noted. To our MANY
readers who have been anxiously
awaiting for the announcement of this
date and who intend to turn their steps
toward the setting sun. we can conf
IDENTIFY say, judging the present and
future by the past, that they will find
on this line all the attention to the
minutest details, which have made the
name of the c. B. & @. a household
word throughout the Union, and in
sure to travellers speed, safety and lux.
ury. Have your tickets read via "Bur-
lington Route"
Passengers going West on the Penn
sylvania Company's lines are landed
in the Union Passenger Station, at
Chicago, whence the trains of the Bur-
lington System depart, thus obviating
change of depot, transfer of baggage
and an omnibus ride across the city all
incidents invariably connected with
other Western lines.

During the terrific storm last Friday
afternoon much damage was done by
lightning.
At Kent Mrs. E D. Atchison was
struck while standing by stove, by a
current which came down the CHM
ney, and instantly killed. Six men
at work in a new house of Mr.. Lee
Tracy, were shocked, two of them seri-
ously, by a current of electricity which
struck the building.
At Brimfield, the barn of Henry
Glass, one mile west of the Center,
was struck. No damage except the
tearing off of q few shingles on the
roof.
At Palmyra the large barn of Leonard
8. Corbitt, just south of the Center,
was struck about four o'clock Friday
afternoon, set on fire and totally de-
stroyed, together with all his sgricul.
tural implements and about 200 bush.
els of wheat stored therein.
A barn on the place of Mrs. II. P,
Curtis, at the Center of Charlsstown
was struck by lightning during the
same storm and totally consumed.
Miss Rosa James, a school teacher
in Shalersville, started for her home
| in Charlestown just before the storm
but was overtaken by it and drove into
the yard at Squire Marvin's, in the
southeast part of Shalersville, to seek
shelter, and just at the moment light
ming struck q tree in the yard, the
shock prostrating her, but she so fal
recovered as to be able to return to hel
hOme that evening.

will be an abundance of peaches, but
no cherries.

Haying time is fast approaching and 9

Monday was the funeral of Mrs.
Margaret Miller, wife of Anthony
Miller, of Suffield. She died of con-
sumption. Mrs. Miller was the second
daughter and fourth child of John and
Agnes Knapp, of Randolph. She
was yet comparatively young woman
having been married but few years
and leaves q devoted husband and sew
eral small children to mourn her death.
Thus grief will enter every household,
every circle, and the human heart is
liable to be burdened with ever vary
ing pangs almost any moment. We
never feel it till it cometh but when
it cometh, oh, how cheerless the world!
One burst Of genuine grief o'ershad-
ows for the time being, our very exist
snce. Man even becomes oblivious at
times until the cloud has passed over
and the faint glimmer of sunshine
again penetrates the soul. The great
est sympathy is felt for Mr.. Miller in
his sad bereavement. The funeral
was conducted from the Catholic
Church in Randolph, and her body
was buried in that cemetery. M
