How to Avoid Danger.

In skating on ice, avoid skates that
are strapped on the foot, as they pre-
vent the circulation, and the foot be-
comes frozen before the skater is aware
of it, because the tight strapping be-
numbs the foot and deprives it OF feel
ing. Serious injury may be done the
feet by this way. The safest kind are
those which receive the fore part of the
foot in a kind of toe, aDd a stout leath-
er around the heel, buckling in front OF
the ankle only, thus keeping the heel
in place without spikes or screws, and
adding greatly in supporting the ankle.
1t is not the object so much to skate
fast as to skate gracefully; and this is
sooner and more easily learned by
skating with deliberation; while it pre-
vents oyerheating, and diminishes the
chances of taking cold by cooling off
too soon afterward. If the wind is
blowing. a veil should be worn over
face, at least of ladies' and children;
otherwise fatal Inflammation of the
lungs, pneumonia may take place.
Do not sit down for a single half min
ute, nor stand still if there is any
wind; or stop a moment after the
skates are taken off; but walk about
so as to restore the circulation about
the feet and toes, and to prevent
being chilled. 1t is safer to walk
home than ride; the latter is almost
certain to cause a cold Never carry
anything in the mouth while skating,
nor any hard substances in the hand
nor throw anything upon the ice

1t would be a safe rule for no child
or lady to be on skates more than
an hour at a time.

We had quite visit this week from
our old friend Calvin Stanley, Of Usage

has bee1 ut work in the mines aud

the centennial State, but says he can
make more money in Kansas after all,
no he will probably remain here.
Congressman Haskell was buried at
Lawrence yesterday with imposing

of Emporia, preached the sermon.

A misplaced switch at the Wichita
depot caused considerable of smash
up last Friday night. The engine, ten
der and four cars Of freight train No. S,
bound west, ran off the track, the en-
CINE ploughing up several yards of the
depot platform. 4 large fOfce was put
to work at once, and the track was
cleared in time to prevent delay of 9th
er trains. The front trucks of box
car were broken off and some coal was
spilled, which was about the extent of
the damage done.
Ifany one thinks the county treasur-

Enterprise Of Belfast Sailors.

The Pennington Journal has received
a communication from John Mason of
WoodlaWn, Fairfax county, Virginia, now
eighty-four years old, who used to live at
Vests Mills, Maine, about sixty years
ago. In speaking of the enterprise of
Maine boys he relates the following:
Salem, Mass, was the first seaport
town on this continent to enter the China
and East India trade, They decided to
build clipper ship, doubly man and
strongly arm her. to go to the Pacific
ocean and try to open trade with the
natives for furs to take to China to trade
for tea. She reached the Pacific in safe
ty and in advancing to the higher lati-
tudes the lookout at masthead discover
ed a sail. The ships course was chang
ed and when within hailing distance the
captain Of the clipper hailed = "Ship
ahoy !"
"Aye, aye, SIR came the response.
"WEat schooner is that, and where
from ?"
"The Rachel Ann, from Belfast, Maine"
"What author do you navigate 10y 2"
'Dlworth's Spelling Book"
'What is your cargo and where bound?"
'Trinkets and traps to trade with the
natives for furs to take to the Chinese to
trade for tea, their barter"
"Good luck to you, shipmates :"
"The same to yourself"
Thus had the brave, hardy sailors of
Belfast anticipated those of her sister
seaport town of Salem, and while the lat
ter were building and equpping a suita-
BILE vessel for their untried voyage, the
former, with commendable enterprise and
bravery, started out alone on this untried
and hazardous voyage.
