The story is little late being told,
but 1t il none the less Interesting. The
passengers on the Louisville train thai
came up to Lexington one night q
! week or ten days ago, will perhaps re-
co lect that the train was stopped al
the crossing of the railroad and Iron
works turnpike, just little way out OF
town. The cause was a signal from q
colored man namedOscar Washington
who stood on the track waving ligh' ]
He had also built bonfire on the trac n
30 that the engineer would be bound IT,
see that something was wrong. A hug I
walnut log had fallen from freigh
train and lay across the track. The 10 9
was about 4 feet in diameter. TIE col
ored map, living near, observed the log
on his return from work. He could NOT
move 1t, 70 he built fire on q iOg, and
then went on ahead at a safe distance
to give the signal.
The company offered him pass over
the road for mself aud ia mily, but he
declined it, having little or no use for
the pass. He does not seem to know
what value to put on his great service.

A Curiosity in Vaccination.

4 gentleman in the West End, when
the smallpox scare was first agitated
in the city, purchased some vaccine
matter for the purpose of vaccinating
his family. He mixed the matter with
some water on piece of glass, and in
doing so portion of the mixture
adhered to one of his finger nails.
Soon after, having occasion to pick his
nose, he unfortunately used the finger
which had come in contact with the
matter, and the consequence was that
it took splendidly in his nasal organ.
Coming in contact with the membranes
of the nose. it spread all through his
head, and'as result he has been con-
confined to his bed for two weeks.
There will be no question hereafter
with this gentleman that if there is
any virtue in vaccination, he never will
have the smalLpox.-Fort Wayae Ga

Girls as Wood EngraYers.

A contemporary as ked q wood en-
graver why he did not employ girls.
His reply was? 81 have employed
women very often, and wish | could
feel more encouraged But the truth
is that when young man comes TO
me and begins his work he feels that it
is his life's business. He is to cut his
fortune out of the little blocks before
him. Wife, family, home, happiness
and all are carved out by his own hand,
and he settles steadily To his labor, de-
termined to master II, and with every
Indictment squirting him on. He can
not marry until he knows his trade. 1t
Is exactly the other way with the girl.
She may be as poor Is the boy, and as
wholly dependent upon herself for a
living, but she feels that she will prob
ably marry by-and-bye, and then she
must give up wood engraving. So she
goes on listlessly; she has no ambition
to excel she does not feel that all her
happiness depends on it. She will
marry, and then her husbands wages
will support her. She may not say so,
but she thinks so, and spoils her work.

A Valuable Diamond.


When the Khedive of Egypt sent a
diamond necklace as wedding pres
ent to Miss Minnie Sherman, fashion
able New Workers grew envious of the
fair daughter of the General of Uncle
Sans armies; and yet more elegant
gem than the combined diamonds in
the Khedive's gift came to this city I'M
heralded few months ago, and, with
the exception of few people, has re-
manned in its case unadmired. 1t is
valued at 100000 Hundreds of years
ago this brilliant was famous in India,
and was known as the pearl of India.
At the beginning of the present centu-
nv it belonged to Rajah in India.
to the ears of the Viceroy of Egypt he
sent a special commission to the Rsjah
to negotiate for its purchase. The
commission was successful. Shortly
after it had come into the possession
Of the Viceroy his favorite daughter
was married to the Sultan, and the
pearl Of India constituted one of her
wedding presents. Since then 1t has
remained in the keeping of the inn
perial family of Turkey until pur-
chased recently by New York firm.
This gem has no superior in Ameri-
ca, and is claimed to be the most ele-
CANT ever seen anywhere. 1t is an old
mine stone and weighs % 7-16 karats.
1t is cut in the old style, and experts
both in the old and new world declare
that in this respect it cannot be i'm

markable act, considering the size OF
