WATERLOO.

A. T. Brown sustained very painful
wound one day last week. While he
and several others were engaged in put
ting the large and heavy plate ssglass into
the front of Carl Haeses new block, one
of the plates slipped from the hands of
some of them, and the corner edge of the
glass struck Mr. Brown on the right foot,
penetrating his boot and badly mutilat-
ing the foot.
Henry VanSlyck arrived in town last
Saturday, and reports all Waterlooites
located at Frederick, Dakota, as being
we'll and prosperirg finely.
u Louis Schuett, an old and esteemed
citizen of this place, departed this life

CLIMBING THE HIMALAYAS.
10000 Feet HIgh-swIss Guides Give
Out.

They who have mastered the Alps,
and found them already mastered by
their predecessors, sign for a new
world, and find it in the Himalayas.
There is a singular correspondence be-
tween the two chains. India is the
Italy of ASIA. Each has magnificent
island for its satellite. Bombay cor
responds to Genoa, Calcutta to Venice,
Delhi to Milan, while the Ganges and
the Indus are humbly represented by the
Po and the Adige. Both chains run
east to west. presenting their boldest and
steepest froOt to the south Both have
their ancient and welI-known passes, In
both cases the most rugged of outlines
and eternal snow are the horizon oftertlle
and populous plains. AS to scenery,
while the Hamalayas are more sublime,
the Alps are more beautiful, for they
are generally seen with a surrounding OF
wood and water, the latter of which is
entirely wanting in the Himalayas, ex-
Cept out of sight at the bottom OF deep
gorges The AL ps and the Himalayas
both throw out long branches east and
west, as if to claim whole continents for
their own. Northward the resemblance
ceases, for Middle and Northern Europe
supply no parallel2 to the elevated step
pes, the interminable deserts, the frost
and swamp of Siberia. The HimalaYas
looked and spoke to the south, and the
railway brought them within few days
of Bombay and Calcutta Within six
months an Englishman may leave Lon
don and return after seeing sall that is
in ho TVH
la, including the Himalayas, in eli
mate as bearable as an average summer
at home. So they who pine for the dis
tinction of first ascents have now no OBJ
stacle in the way. True, there have
been strange tales, or idle surmises, that
at the height of 10000 feet, or even less,
life is impossible. Man could not
breathe there, or could only breathe in
vain, That, however, was one of the
points to be investigated, and it is un-
derstood that mountain climber must
be prepared to risk his life for suffi-
eient object Mr.. Graham has not at
tanned an absolute success; but he has
paved the way to great successes. He
has demonstrated that it is possible to
breathe and liye at an elevation many
thousand feet higher than Mont Blanc,
and that it is possible to undergo the
fatigue of much longer and sleeper as
cents than those from Chamounix or
Zermatt. He has brought the highest
peaks of the Himalayas within reach of
moderate strength, activity and perse-
verance.
The difficulties surmounted by NJ.
Graham to within sight of complete sue
cess speak well for the courage and pow
er of our race. He had with him two
picket guides from Switzerland. one of
them was an utter failure; and the other
could be ''seedy" and incapable.-Lon-
don Times.

Mrs. CORVALLIS West, the English
beauty, who arrived in New York the,
other day, Is thus described:
Her face is of that charming, peculiar
style of beauty which has always moved
mankind more than the most regular
features, she has very rich complexion,
on which an occasional freckle stamps
certificate of fneness, and thereby adds
to the charm of the effect, A splendid
head of ripping hair, which was very
long until this year, when she cut it into
boylike curls, clusters framewise around
her face, producing an effect which many
ladies have sought to initiate, but which
none have approached. She is impnlsive,
original and daring, and says upon occa-
sion the most delightful things ia the
most delightful way. She is most SYM
pathetic, full Of fun, great favorite of
all who know her and subject Of admir-
at ion to those who 90 not She dresses
generally in careless and sometimes in
startling fashion, but, being small in
stature and of an admirable figure sheg
always looks well, no matter however she
may be dressed. She rides with a certain
dash. She has thoroughly Irish eyes,
while she possesses the traditional smart
ness at repartee of the celebrated Mile
sian. A propensity to practical joking
may be said to slightly mar a character
that is otherwise a kindly one, but the
lady is at the same time very popular.

THE LETTER OF THE LAW,

A dispatch from Cleveland says:
''Leonard Case, a millionaire old bach
elor, charitable and eccentric, died in
this city several years ago, leaving, be-
sides a hansome legacy for school of
applied science which bears his name,
a large property for his heirs and next
of kin TO quarrel over in the courts.
One Of the suits now pending in the
Supreme Court, the court q last resort,
hinges upon the appearance of the let
ter s. in the statutes. The other de-
scendants Of Leonard Cases mother
claim shale in the estate The stat
utes provide that under certain contin-
gencies the estate of the deceased person
shall pass tC the next Of kin Of the
blood of ancestors from whom the estate
came. If the word ancestors is to be
construed il its full force, the descend
ants of Mrs. Case can obtain their full
share. On the other hand, it is claimed
that the letter IS at the end of ancestors
crept into tie statutes through the care
Iessness of some printer OR proof-reader.
The case will be heard in the Supreme
Court before long. The property involv-
ed is valued at $l000.000."

TYPHOID FEVER IN NEW YORK
AND MASSACHUSETTS.

The New York Board of Health are
making great efforts to prevent the spread
of typhoid fever in that city. They assert
that there is no reason to appreheDd an
epidemic IF the disease, although a large
number of cases have been brought to
their notice. During the past four weeks
307 cases were reported. These cases,
moreover were not confined to any one
locality, but were spread over the whole
city, the bulk of them being in the tene-
ment-house districts, where the sewerage
and other sanitary arrangements are not
as good as in tie houses occupied by
Weather people 1t is somewhat re
markabIe that while typhoid cases are
increasing in New York other zymotic
diseases, such as smallpox, measles,
scarlet fever and diphtheria. which have
a similar origin, are not as prevalent this
year as heretofore, and the physicians
are puzzled to account for it. Ordinary
tvph old fever occurs quite as often in iso-
lated and healthy country towns and
villages as in larger cities, and some of
the cases in the uptown districts of New
York are attributed to the fact that per
sons who have been spending a part of
the summer in the country have come
back to the city impregnated with the
germs of the disease. As an evidence
that country towns sre not exempt from
the disease, it is also reported that ty
phoid fever is prevalent in Amherst,
Mass. Besides the cases among the in
habitants, so many Of the students at
Amherst College are said to have been
taken sick that there are rumors that
the college will close its doors. As usual,
it is now discovered that "the drainage is
in bad condition." !"
