Vile and drove down to Butte. leayinr
MS own team in Walkerville. DriscolI.
not approaching the mistake, set the
Officers Of the law on Crawford's track.
and came down after his team. In the

took the bits in their mouths and came
down the hill at a laundering rate.
turning west on Broadway they
brought up finally in front Of Mrs. But

one horse going on one side off telegraph
pole and the other on the other side.
The wagon came to a dead stop, SILVER
Ing the rear axle and breaking both

flying team and heavy wagon, alarmed
the crowd in Levy's club rooms. who
rushed out 10 see what they suorose,l

Remarkable Ground and Lofty
Tumblin9.

Snow fell thirty-six hours last week
in the Wood River country. A few
hours after the snow ceased slides took
place in the canyons. The HALEY
Times gives the following account Of
them:
The first started above the new May
flower shaft, came down the gulch, and
covered a part Of Ed. Riddles house.
He crnwled out through the stove-ripe
hole. Tome Dyer's cabin was als" bur
led, by the slide, but he and his dog
were dug out in few minutes.
The second slide occurred on Wall
street, about 3 o'clock the same evening.
All the fresh snow on the side vt the
hill slid down, covering the stable Of
Mr.. Lingo. killing two of his mules.
covering the rear Of two or three houses,
and soaring everybody but injuring u"
one. At Mr.. Letlinghan's the 'mck
door WAS torn from its hinges and p,'si'-
and tin house was nearly filled with
snow. Mrs. I.eslingl.am jumped out Of
the front window into the street. Mr..
and Mrs. Mcpherson were playing u
game If cards with some friends in their
house when the Snow burst in the fr:'nt
door, and fell in ~ shower oyer the play
crs, turning one players cards up and
anOtiler's down. This unrOurtt"l.s I've
havior OF the snow put stop I" I'll"
game.
Yesterday morning, :s Joe Middleton
was going up to the MaytiOwtr shaft. :,
snow slide carried him down over uN
feet wl,e,, he caught hold "f II saplin.
and hung on like grim cCatl until the
slide passed him. AS he tu,a''!esa down
the mountain lie executed u series o'
groun,lanl lofty tumnblings, his feet and
head continually alternating in the air.
He w:,s considerably bruised a'"H,t the
:,cc and hands, hut o;hcrw i~c un;m-

samples were recently shown at a meetin s
81 the Microscopical society, which came
nom the western mountains, at height of
10000 feet. When fresh the snow had the
appearance OF being drenched with
blood as though some large animal
had been killed. The red snow is
caused by the presence of u one-oelled
plant, called protococcuS nevaiis, which re.
produces itself by Sub-diviSions-that is,
the cell divides itself into several new cells.
This is done with great rapidity, and few
cells lodged in the snow, under favorable
conditions, will soon give ii the appearance
called red snow. IL was remarked that the
phenomenon of red snow had been observed
from the earliest times, us Aristotle has a
passage which is thought to refer to it, DIR.
Hardness says that during his last visit to
England he saw the original bottle of speci.
mems brought from the Arctic more than
sixty years before, and in which the procto-
coccus could still be seen with the micro
scope.
On the high mountains near Mammoth
City immense banks Of red snow can be
seen during the winter, 1t can be seen
from a distance, and resembles bank of
red clay. When the sun shines brightly,
the snow has pink appearance At first
sight 1t is novel spectacle Bodie Free

THE TENAS
Marriage Aid Association of Dallas, Texas.

This institution is one of the important
fixtures of our state and country, and offers
the simplest and most complete system OF
any association known. The directors and
incorporators are among the best citi-
zens of Dallas, and all its obliga-
lions are being promptly met.
The association is pushing its work
into all the states, and now has its adver-
tisements before the public in most all OF
the leading papers of the country. Any
unmarried white person, of good character,
or child of any age, can hold from one to
five shares" each of which draws fifty
cents per day from application till marriage
and if not married in 1900 days, each
share" entities the holder to fifty cents
per day (Which is $1,000, the same as if
married at that time. One can
marry at any time These amounts
are paid at the time Of the marriage,
or at the expiration of 1000 days, by an as
sessment on the whole number of shares
out. No assessment is greater than 81 on
the share. One assessment generally pays
a number OF marriages. Ten per cent. OF
assessments is reserved in a sinking fund
for the benefit of members, 10 per cent.
goes to the expenses of the association, and
SO per cent, goes Immediately to the pay
ment of marriages. No dues are required,
and no assessment is asked in advance.
