now A MAN GOES TO BED.

Speaking of how q man goes to bed,
an exchange says: "Ihere's where a
man has the advantage. He can undress
and be in bed before q woman has her
hairpins out and her shoes united"
That is how it looks in print, and this
is how it Is in reality: II am going to
Ted, my dear. 1t is 1890" No reply.
"NOw, John, you are always late in the
morning. Do go to bed" ''Yes, in a
minute" he replies, as he turns the
paper wrong side out and begins a
lengthy article headed, 1.-The Pennsyl-
vania MIDDLE" Fifteen minutes later
she calls out from the bedroom: 'John,
come to bed and don't keep the gas burn
ing all night" and murmuring some
thing abont ''the bill being big enough
now" she creeps between tho sheets,
while John sits placidly ON, his feet
across tie piano stool and cigar in his
mouth. BY and by he rises, yawns,
stretches himself, and throws the paper
on the floor. Just at this stage a not al
together pleasant voice inquiries: "For
PHYS sake! amt you re- .dy for bed YETI"
"Yes, yes, I'm coming. Why don't you
go to sleep and let fellow alone ?"
Then he slowly begins to undress, and as
he stands scratching himself, and alb
sently gazing on his last garment dang
ling over chair, he remembers that the
clock is not wound up yet. When this
is attended to he wants drink of water,
and away he promenades to the kitchen.
Of course when he returns he must yawn
again As the clock strikes II he turns
out the gas, and with flop of the bed
clothes and few spasmOdic shivers he
subsides-no, not yet; he forgot to see
if the front door was locked. and an
other flop from the bed clothes brings
forth the remark: ''Good gracious if
that man amt enough to try the pa
tienoe of Job p Setting her teeth hard,
she awaits the final flop, with the accom-
panying blast of cold air, and then
quietly inquiries If he is settled for the
night, to which he replies by muttering:
IF You amt the provokingest woman"

OPrux SMoKISo.-The last Legislature
very wisely passed very strict Law pro-
hibiting the rapidly growing vice of
opium smoking. This Law makes it a
misdemeanor to keep an opium den, or
be caught in such place smoking, or
even as visitor. On Monday night
the police officers lit down on several
OF these opium dens and captures in one
place eight pipes and sixty dollars worth
OF opium. Nine or ten arrests were
made, all Cinnamon. portion of whom
will be tried before Justice Coombs and
the Others before Judge Damn. Ono
trial took place last evening, resulting
IN Long Ching Isl, keeper Of one OF the
dens, being fined SO and costs.

ApRArrrrt he,gs.

Twelve years ago w. r. Smith set
tied on q piece Of land covered with
brush and timber near the town Of Rem
ton. and although at that time over fifty
years Of age, he pitched into the hard
work Of clearing the land and making
for himself and family home. At FIRST
his progress was slow, but the work be
did was well done. and never had TO be
gone over a second time. Finally he
had little farm, that through bis ef-
forts made him self supporting. Not con-
tent with this, he sat to work laying ont
grounds for lawns, orchards, pleasure
gardens, etc. Tha wide world was ran
aacked for choice trees and pianss.
Many Of these died, bat at great expense
they were replaced until the collection
Of ornamental shade trees on his place
cannot beequalied in Washington Tef-
ritorv, and the fruit trees cannot DO ex-
cslled. The pleasure garden portion OF
Mr.. Smiths pl 'ce has always been
heavy burden to him, requiring con-
slant outlay Of money and labor, bot
that gentlemen has never tired OF add
ing 1T whatever he saw or heard would
make the place more pleasant or attrac-
tive. During last winter Mr.. Smith has
added to his spacious residence large
dininR-room, the interior Of which, for
fine workmanship, and beauty OF finish
ia it seldom equailed In our larger city
hotels. Just north of the family home,
are the public picnic grounds, where
Sunday Schools, civic organizations, and
the public in general are made comfort
able and happy. Here beautiful and
we'll mown lawns abound. skirted by
little groves Of evergreen and maple
trees. A clear stream of running water,
from which speckled beauties are caught
by the willy fisherman, comfortably ar
ranged seats, tables and swings for the
pleasure seekers, added 70 the scenery
Of the surrounding country, make this
a charming spot in the extreme. for
pleasure seekers. Sir. Smith and his
estimable wife, delight in making visi-
tors to their beautiful retreat perfectly
at home. Every Sunday, and oftentimes
during the week, wagon loads Of people
from town ride out to RentOn to enjoy
few hours in the country, together
with a dinner that cannot be excelled.
We predict that in few years Smiths
Gardens, at Renton will be as popular
resort for Seattle and Puget Sound peo-
ole az Woodward's Gardens are to the
people Of California.

The London Truth has the following
regarding the substitution of American
railroad coaches for those low in use in
England:
ct is really becoming a serious ques-
ton whether public safety will not rem
der it necessary for us to adopt the long
American railroad carriages. Now that
the facility of committing theft or murder
npon isolated passengers has been brought
home to tie criminal classes, railroad
crimes seem to be on the increase. Every
one who gets into an empty carriage does
SO at the risk of man following him and
cutting his throat The appliances for
stopping a train in case of assault are 40
solutely useless, unless the criminal be
an utter tool, for he could easily plan his
attack in manner to hinder his victim
from touching the signal. A murderer
might in nine cases out of ten escape by
jumping out of the carriage when the
train is Stacking speed. If LEROY had
done this, [ doubt whether Mr.. Colds
murderer would ever have been discov-
cred. Only few days ago was in a
railway carriage. Opposite me was a
gentleman, and the other seats were I'M
tenanted. We sat watching each other
the whole way I thought my vis-a-vis
had bad countenance, and he, | sup
pose, thought the same of me, When
ever be felt II his pocket for his hand

AN association of public-spirited WON
en- in New York got a law passed at the
last session of the Legislature compelling
the employers of female help to provide
them with seats to such an extent that
their health might not be injured by con-
slant standing, and now they are engag-
ed in prosecuting wealthy merchants who
neglect to observe the law, as in many oil
the stores the female clerks are still com.
PEELED to stand all day without rest, which
is heartless thoughtlessness on the part
of those requiring such unnecessary hard

A WHOLE TRAIN PASSES OVER A
WOMAN WITHOUT SER
TOTTS DAMAGE

One of the most singular adventures
and wonderful escapes from death ever
recorded took place in this city Saturday
morning. At that time Mrs. Peter An
derson, who lives in the vicinity of the
Halfway House, and who had been up
town, was returning to her home. She
had to cross the railroad. Just then
c., B. & Q. train was coming, and she
stepped back III the c., R. l. & ?. track
to allow the train to pass, not noticing
that at the same time train was back
ing down toward her on the O., X. q
P. road. The latter train struck her be-
fore she was aware of its coming, and
knocked her down, she falling immedi-
ately between the rails. The train came
on and the cars passed over her PROSTATE
body, the brakes and trucks striking her
successive hard thumps. The locomo-
tive was the last to reach her, and its
ire-box, coming very near the ground,
pushed and rolled her along the track
for some distance Fortunately a cattle
guard was near, and when she reached
it the fire-box forced her between the ties
into the guard, and the locomotive passed
on. These ties are close together, and it
is not understood how she could have
been forced between them without kill
ing her, but the fact remains.
She was picked up and attended by
DR.. Sloan, who at first thought she was
dangerously hurt. Her skull had sus
tanned slight fracture, and the flesh had
been torn from her body i'll several places,
Her shoes and stockings had also been
ripped off. Subsequent examinations,
however, proved that her wounds are not
fatal, and with proper care she eau re-
cover.
She is young woman, and has been
only recently married. She owes her life
to fortunate combination of circum-
stances, aud to the fact that she is not a
very large woman. After one has been
through such an ordeal as that there
need not be much fear of death from ac-
cident At the last report she was doing
uery well.-D0Uenport Gazette.

CONKLTNG' NOMINATION.

Recognizing the strong personal friend
ship that has existed between President
Arthur and Roscoe Conkling for long
term of years and their close political re-
1ationship, it should be no surprise to the
country that Mr.. Conkling has been nom-
mated for Associate Justice of the United
States Supreme Court as the successor of
Ward Hunt who is retired Mr. Conk-
ling's towering ability is admitted by his
friends and foes alike. although doubts
are expressed by many as to his peculiar
fitness for the high Office to which he has
been named. No act thus far of the
President has been so sharply criticised
as this nomination, and yet when duly
considered the selection is no discredit
to President Arthur who sees in Mr..
ConkIing not only tried friend bat one
of the great men of the Nation.

The bill to retire General Grant was
passed by the Senate last Thursday by a
vote of 35 to IL. David Davis and four
Southern Senator'S voted for the meas
ure. There is no doubt that the House
of Representatives will be prompt in pass
ng it. This will give Grant $4,000 per
year for life. The passage of the bill is
nothing more than a just recognition by
the country of the eminent services OF
General Grant to the Nation when it was
threatened with dissolution and dismem-
berment

THE admission of Dakota into the
Union has been agreed upon, SO far as
concerns the action of the House Com
mittee on Territories. The same com
mittee has decided to favor the creation
of new Territory out Of the northern
portion of Dakota That would be in &C.
cordance with numerous precedents. IL
linois was once a part of Indiana, both Of
Ohio, and earlier still all belonged to Vir
ginia. The committee proposes to call
the new Territory North Dakota. The
forty-sixth parallel is the line of division
proposed by the new State and the new
Territory. The latter would contain an
area of rs, 900 square miles, and nearly,
but not quite, one inbabitant to square

UNITED States Senator Philetus Saw
er, is one of the most practical of rich
men. He called his young daughters to
him one day, and asked them, as test.
mony of their affection for him, to learn
to make their own clothes, and to cook
agood dinner. The young girls cheerfully
promised, and not long after invited
their parents and a few friends to dine
with them. They cooked the perfect
