Union services are held alternately every
Sabbath evening in the Methodist and
Baptist Churches. The interest is increas-
ing and we unite in saying, "let brotherly
love continue"
One OF our honored citizens last week,
took to himself a wife, yet as we have not
been informed of the particulars" we can
not give them.
On Friday our village bell tolled for the
first time in the new year. Mary North was
summoned to the spirit land at the age of
Is years. Often the death angel has Wis
tied this dear family and borne loved ones
away till now ten children have crossed
the food, and are waiting the rowing of
the angel boatman that viii bear to them
their aged parents, who have the tenderest
sympathies of many friends. Mary was
the youngest of large family and the
fond parents had hoped to spend the twi-
light of their declining days with her, yet
An aged father watched her fading bloom,
A mothers gentle hand her dying pillow smoothed,
How sad they followed her to the tomb,
How lovingly her dying hour they soothed s.

He Had q Terrible Time.

A gentleman, possessing a rather
rough appearance, q native of Kansas
City, and who receives his letters and
bills addressed through the mails to one
William King, strolled into the Union
Depot last evening just drunk enough to
look tired and sleepy lie threw himself
upon one of the wooden benches in the
gentleman's waiting room and was soon
asleep and snoring. In a few minutes
passengers in the waiting-room at the
time were startled at the capers he be-
gan TO cut. He was evidently chronic
somnambulist and imagined in his sleep
that he was driving street car, and
endeavoriDg to manage q very wild
team of horses. He stood up on the
bench and yelled: Whoal whoar' as
he leaned forward and held out his
hands, as though he were attempting to
obtain a tighter grip on the imaginary
lines he was holding. As soon as he was
satisfied that he had stopped the horses,
he jumped from the bench exclaiminr:
Confound itl this car always gets OF
the track at the wrong time" After
making this observation he walked to
one end of the bench and began tn pu
it around the room with all his might
and main.
"'What are you trying to do?" in
quired bystander.
"Why, you confounded old fool,
can't you see l am trying to get this car
on the .track?"
Finding itwas up hill work, he walked
to the other end of the bench and tried
to quiet his horses again by saying:
whoa boy, whoa, boyr' etc.
This task having been accomplished, he
turned to the crowd of spectators and
asked them to help him lift the car on
the track. When they failed to respond
he said: You are the meanest set Of
street-car passengers 1 ever hauled"
What is the number of your carP''
chipped in a bystander who stood near
the back, holding his sides as he laughed.
"The number Of my car" replied the
perspiring somnambulist- " is AZ"
At this point Of the proceedings q
policeman appeared on the scene and
dashed the contents of glass filed with
water in the face of the sleep-walker
This awoke him and brought him to
his senses forthwith. When he saw the
crowd standing around him laughing and
slapping each other on the back his as
tonishment was of course very great

A Cure for Unrequitted Love.

A curious love episode had its culmi-
nation in court here to-day when Jennie
Blank, good-looking young woman of
refined appearance, was found guilty of
maliciously breaking the windows of
William ii. Anderson's house. Miss
Blank first met Mr.. Anderson about nine
years ago, and fell deeply in love with
him, although he claims that he did not
encourage her affection. He ceased to
visit her, and she then began to write
him letters of the most touching charae-
ter, but they failed to move him. On
the contrary, he wooed and won another
woman, whom he married nearly year
ago. But this only seemed to excite
Miss Blank to frenzy, and she wrote him
so many letters that he sometimes re-
ceived five or six of them in one mail.
There was nothing offensive in them;
they spoke of hopeless love; but the sem
timents were refined and tho language
well chosen. Mr.. Anderson did not re-
ply to them, and some time after his
marriage, he said to-day ON the witness
stand, somebody began to annoy him by
systematically breaking the windows of
his house. One time q brick was thrown
through his store window at three OF clock
in the morning. On another occasion
his enemy apparently made miscalcu-
lation and sent Stone crushing through
the window Of Chinese laundry next
door. Mr.. Anderson placed himself on
watch for the miscreant about two weeks
agn. and discovered that Il was his ad-

A Snake Story.

To get snake out of bottle is tedit
Gus job; in whatever position it is turned,
the head win be directed upward, so
that the only way to induce him to come
out is to place the bottle upright or near
" so; even then the head is withdrawn
on the slightest alarm and the position
is by no means favorable to its transfer
ence to a box. If the door or opening
of the latter will admit of it, the best
plan is to put the bottle uncorked into
the box and let the snake crawl out at
its leisure. first " checking off, the bot
tie with wedge Of paper or wood, lest
1t should roll over on the reptile, and
fastening string to it in order that it
may be removed without difficulty at the
earliest possible opportunity.
One of the most poisonous snakes ]
ever possessed was brought to me in a
brandy-bottle, and after twisting, and
shaking, and tapping it for an hour with
out avail, grew impatient. The tail
just then happened to protrude abou
gers, and, rapidly drawing the body
safely in my grip behind his death-deal-
ing jaws, now distended with anger.
But the slide of my snake-box was shut
one hand; so was obliged to let him
slip back in the bottle again. Having
set the box all in order for the new-com-
er's reception, once more essayed to
lay hold of him by the tail; but now,
most provokingly. no amount of maneu-
vering would bring that useful member
to the top. Another half hours unsuc-
cessful angling converted my patience
into desperation. and at length, when /
saw the tail about two inches from the
mouth of the bottle, stuck my forefin-
ger in recklessly to try to secure it
That was hopeless, as /. might have
know; but It certainly did cool my spine
little when I discovered, on attempt
ing to withdraw il, that my finger was
jamedl 1 pulled, wrenched, twisted 1t
with all my might. for the brute was
raising its head, and its Pickering
tongue was rapidly approaching the un-
happy digit that inyoluntarily corked up
its prison. gave q final tug, the vio-
lence of which nearly dislocated all my
phalanges; but It was no use, and with
a yell raised the bottle high in the air,
intending to smash it on the head of my
bunk. / distinctly felt the snake, mo-
mentarily inverted, fall on the end of my
finger, but as flung my hand up the bot
tie slipped off and fell on the deck behind
me, fortunately without breaking. By
the time 1 picked it up the snake was
half way out, Kissing furiously with rage
and fright, and / had but just time to
thrust It into the box. If had not been
fiurried. should probably have been
able to extricate my finger with but very
little difficulty. 1t Is Of the utmost inn
portance never to lose presence of mind
in dealing with these things. gs.-London

Comstock salamanders.

II there are to be found anywhere in
the world q set of human salamanders we
may claim the credit of having them here
on the Comstock- What would scorch o
man who lives wholly on the surface
chills miner INJURED to the heat of the
lower levels. A miner who has been for
some months past working in one of the
hottest sections of the Comstock, a day
or two since, gave an Enterprise report
er his experience of the heat which min
ers are often called upon to encounter.
He says that in working at points where
the thermometer marks a temperature
of 115 to 40 degrees great thirst is ex-
perienced. No ice water is too cold to
be swallowed with relish. Men go to
the water barrel in which huge chunks
of ice are floating about, and will take
their picks and chop up the ice in order
that the water may be rendered colder
by being filed with fine fragments.
Often this does not satisfy them, and
they chew and swallow Jumps of ice.
The natural temperature Of the hunen
body-of the blood-is about ninety-six int
degrees Fahrenheit; therefore, Wiki a
man remains in q hot place for an NJur,
or even half an hour, bis blood, his Shole
body, becomes heated to temperature
of 1I5 or 120 degrees. or whatever may
be the temperature of the place in which
he is at work. 1t is then that the miners
began to pour down ice water and eat
ice. The strangest thing about the bust
ness is that it does not hurt any of the
men. Often they swallow such quanti-
ties of ice water that their stomachs will
not retain it, and in vomiting it up it will
feel cold in their mouths and against
their teeth. All they do on such occa-
sions is to swallow more of the same
water, but more cautiously.
When men are working in extremely
hot places the temperature of the place
to which they come to cool of-the
cooling-off station-is probably 100 de-
grees. This temperature-which would
almost roast surface man-appears
cool % q man who has come from place
where the thermometer marks ITO to lis
degrees. In place where the tempera-
ture Is ninety degrees the man will feel
so cold as to shiver. Often at the cooling
off station, where the temperature is 100
( degrees, the perspiration will cease, and
the man win begin to feel very uncom-
Portable. Onleaying and going back to
where the temperature is from lis to
120, as the perspiration begins to start,
there is for minute or two an intolera-
BILE itching over the whole body. As each
closed pore reopens itproduces tinging
sensation. However. as soon as there is
q free flow of perspiration all this trouble
ceases and the man feels quite comfort
able and so remains until his whole body
blood, flesh and bones-again reaches
a temperature of from ITO to 120, when
he becomes wild for ice water and ice.
1t is not little strange-when we con-
slider that ninety-eight degrees is the
natural temperature of the blood--that
serious results do not follow exposure to
degree of heat almost sufficient to cook
the blood in the Hfgiaia Enter
