We are panied, more than words can
express, to announce the sudden, awful
death OF John Johnson, son Of David
Johnson, OF this city, which occurred
in Indiana, last Monday morning. He
was a warm hearted boy, who had been
brought up in our midst, and was well
liked by our people. His father received
a dispatch from the conductor of the
construction train on which John was
engaged as time-keeper for the hands,
last Monday, announcing his being in
stantly killed, and directing him to come
at once. from the Chicago Times Of
Tuesday " learn the cause Of his death
to be the ditching Of the car on which he
was riding. This is a terrible blow to the
parents, as it is their second child lost by
accident. They are now left childless,
ard their grief is hard to be borne.

DINNERS IN GER
MANY.

Another German triumph is the "trav-
cling dinners" in vogue on the line be-
tween Cologne and Berlin Between
these two points, q matter Of ten hours
journey, the train stops nowhere longer
than five minutes. To enable the passen-
gers to refresh themselves en- route, there
fore the guard inquiries before starting
who will dine in Hanover, and when the
train arrives at that station walters de-
posit trays in the carriages according to
the number indicated by slips stuck by
the guard on the windows of each com
partment. These trays are electropIate,
with velvet support to rest them on the
knees, and contain whole assortment of
covered electroplate dishes, fitting into
holes to keep them firm during the cecil
lation Of the train. Removing the lids
the traveller finds a soup or bouillon in
one, outlet with peas or beans in anoth
er, fine cut of joint with two vege-
tables in third, and some stewed straw
berries in fourth. Add a pint bottle of
white wine, and such conveniences as q
napkin and toothpick, and the usual
condiments and bread and even the
stingiest traveller cannot beorudge the
half-a-crown which is asked for this neat
little entertainment.
BY the time the train has arrived at
Hamm, halt an hour distant, the meal is
over, and the traveller, handing the tray
out Of the window, throws himself back
with satisfaction in the carriage to in
dulge in an after-dinner nap, while the
Cour5er-Sug rushes on with the same adj
mirable speed as before to its destination.
There is no hurry-scurry gobbling of food
as on English railways, the meal is com
fortably and calmly eaten amidst the Joy
osu talk OF carriage friends, and the non
travelling Briton experiences a perma-
nent admiration for State-held railways.

THE MODERN WAY OF BANKING.

AS one of the most promising Young
burglars of San Francisco was walking
out of court, the other day, just after hav-
ing secured an acquittal regarding his
latest job by prompt business like "divy'
with the powers that be at the usual
rates, well-to do but anxious looking
stranger touched him on the arm and
beckoned him into a doorway.
"You are ''Teddy, the Ferret" aren't
your" asked the gentleman; ''the man
who was tried to-day for safe-cracking.
"Well what of it?" replied the house
breaker
"Wby just this-you'll excuse me speak
ing SO low-but the fact is I've come all
the way from San Joaquin to look up
party in your line of business
''Have eh?'
Yes-I-well, I've a proposition to
make to you"
Exactly" said the Ferret clamly;
''you are bank cashier down in the foot
hills"
GLOW did you know that?" stammer-
ed the gentleman, much amazed.
"And your cash and accounts are to be
gone over by the directors on the 1st, and
and as you can't realize on your stock
you want me to gag you some time next
week, shoot your hat full of holes, find
the combination in your breast-pocket-
book and go through the safe in regu-
lar way"
"Great heavens, man! how did you find
that out?"
"Why, guessed it. It's the regular
thing you know. Got three orders to at
tend to ahead Of yours now. Lemme see.
Can't do anything for you next week, but
might give you Wednesday and Thurs
day of the week after. How'll that suit
your" The cashier said he thought he
could make that do, and in less than five
minutes they had struck a bargain, and
arranged the whole affair. Even New
York is not much ahead Of San Francis
co in regard to modern conveniences.

A sad accident happened in this city
Wednesday evening, The little five-year
old girl of Mrs Thomas Brown was play
ing in the yard of D. Bullock, with some
companions, when with desire for in
vestigation, common to children, she took
off the cover to the cistern and sat down
on its edge, thinking they could put
their feet in the water While thus en-
gagged the little girl slipped and fell into
the cistern. The alarm was given and
Mrs, Lohmiller arriving, with great pres
ence of mind, obtained q axe and pulled
the little child cut of the water. Phys
icians were Immediately called and every
thing possible done. but to no purpose,
and at seven o'clock the little girl was
pronounced past hope. The heartfelt
sympathy of the entire community is eX-
tended to t e grief stricken mother.

How A Young GIRL is AFFLICTED
Thomas Bigley and wife, residing at
Rockport, have an adopted daughter 10
years Of age. The girl is of average size,
though slender, quite intelligent, and
presents the appearance of much physic-
al suffering-yet she seems to be cheer
ful and communicative. About years
ago she became a sufferer from frequent
bleeding at the nose and pain in the
head, About one year ago during one of
her bleeding spells, number of small,
live red ants were discovered in the flow
of blood from the nose, and at different
times some also issued from her ears:
Some months ago, on one occasion she
lost more bloed than usual, and large
number-probably nearly or quite hun
dred-of live ants were found in it, after
which she appeared much easier, compar-
atively free from pain in the head, and
able to sleep well. At the present time
she suffers the same pain in the head-in
the temple and behind the ears. Mrs.
Biglow says that about five years ago the
child took nap in the yard under a
shade tree, and her peculiar suffering
commenced Immediately afterwards, and
this leads her to believe that some red
ants made their way in her nose, and
that they have multiplied and annoyed
her ever rsince.-PottsUjIIe (Pd) Jour

THE FIRST TELEGRAOI.-A letter writ
ter by Prof. Morse to his cousin, Mrs.
Thomas r. Walker, in 1914, a dozen
years after the event alluded to, thus ex-
planned the selection Of the Scriptural
text, "What hath God wrought, " which
was the first telegraphic message sent
from Washington to Baltimore. "You
are not aware, perhaps, that this sentence
transmitted by telegraph from Washing
to Baltimore, and indited by my young
friend, Miss Annie Ellsworth. the daugh-
ter of the Commissioner Of Patents. She
took the pains to come to nae early in the
morning, after my appropriation had
passed both houses to be the first to in
form me of gc cd news. I then promised
her she should indite the first sentence
transmitted by telegraph from Washing
ton to Baltimore. This was the first sen
tence transmitted. and she indited il;
and let me asure you, my dear cousin, il
has a meaning which few can under

Mrs. Charles L. Deering, Of Portage,
has had her left arm amputated under pc

1881 the lady fell, and, as she supposed,
sprained her wrist. In the succeeding
January she again fell and hurt the anne
arm. In short time a bunch formed on
the wrist which the doctors pronounced an
aneurism. Later developments tended to
convince the physicians that the tumor
was malignant, and that amputatiOn was
the onlv remedy, which course was tax
en-, The tumor was about the size of a
hens egg, It's medical name is O8tso

We do not often make any editorial
mention Of the proprietary medicines ad-
vertised in our columns, but we believe
it to be duty we owe to our readers to
call their attention to the advertisement
of DR.. J. G. Ayers Ague Cure which ap-
pears in this issue of our paper.
We know from sad experience that
nothing is more disheartening than the
insidious approaches and periodical at
tacks of malarial and miasmatic disorders.
The remedy prepared by DIR. Aver & Co.
has been in use many years, and has
proved a positive antidote for disorders
of this nature. It is, withal, safe and
harmless one to take, being composed en-
tirely of vegetable ingredients, without
either quinine or minerals, unlike other
so-called Ague Cures, and consequently
incapable Of producing the deplorable ef-
fects which follow the use of these drugs.
Our Western people owe debt Of graft
tude to DR., Aver for the production OF
this valuable medicine. It's timely use
will save much suffering, and we recon-
mend it with the greatest confidence in
its ability to do all that is promised for
it-Atkjns, Ark., Ne,0s. 43w4

About one o'clock yesterday
morning the family OF George
Compton. storekeeper and Post
master at Newhall, was awakened
by an explosion and found the
house on fire, which had made
such Roadway that they bare
ly escaped with their lives. A
few minutes afterwards the en-.
tire building was In ashes. The fire,
which is supposed to have been
the work of an incendiary, started
in the rear of the store and soou
reached some powder which was
stored there. The explosion of
this reused the inmates and scat
tered the fire in every direction.
But for this they would undoubted-
ly have been burned to death, for
in less than five minutes after they
got out the whole building was q
mass Of flames. There was no wat.
or at hand and nothing whatever
could be done to save the property,
which was total loss, amounting
to $4,000. The house was insured
for $4,Oe0.
