ROE BUCHANAN, fruit peddler, who
made two or three trips up here this sum
mer, was lying in camp at Malad a short
time ago, when two men came up, and not
seeing him, expressed themselves in very
emphatic manner at not being able to "fix
him." says the Wood River Times. Buch-

and take his pistol therefrom, picked up a
shotgun and fired, and the men ran
Buchanan then ran to the wagon, and with
a needle gun he had there, fired several
shots after them. Two men arrived short
ly after the occurrence, in Shoshone, one
of whom had his arm shattered and bleed
ing. He stated he had fallen over some
rocks and broken his arm. His partner
was wounded also, and as trail of blood
was followed from the camp some distance
toward Shoshone, it is believed these were
the two men who attacked Buchanan, who
believes one or more of his shots took
effect.

WILL AUSTIN, Of Banner, came tearing
down the mountain above the Banner
mine the other day, hatless, gunless and
GREATNESS, and rushed through the long
tunnel and up into the third stope in the
east end. Joe Robbins and one or two of
the miners followed him up to see "what
was the matter" When Will caught his
breath and became somewhat composed,
he informed them that Mrs. Austin came
near being left widow-that he made
about the narrowest escape that ever was
made since the days of Davy Crockett,
and that he thanked his lively legs that he
was there instead of between the iron laws
OF the bear that made him climb. Will
said when the bear was close onto him he
threw away his gun so he could make
better time. He was trying to get away
with cub, not knowing that the old bear
was around, when she came tearing
through the brush toward him. Will con
cludeG he didn't want the cub, anyway

AVERY BUSY, POPE.

Pope Leo XIII. is by no means an idle
man. He rises very early, and after
several hours of private devotion is al
ways present at the first mass, celebrated
at 7 a. m. Ats he takes cup of choco.
late mixed with coffee, and reads the let
ters and dispatches that have arrived for
him. At 9 he receives the Secretary oi
State, and afterward perfects and secre-
taries of congregations in rotation. AT
noon his Holiness receives the Princes
and Ambassadors. At o'clock he goes
to prayer and devotional reading, after
which he takes a very frugal dinner. 1t
is calculated that though the Pope re-
ceives something like $1,800,00 annually
for the expenses of the Holy See, his own
food only costs about fifty cents a day,
everything included After dinner he
visits the chapel. and, if time permits,
takes a walk in the gardens of the Vati-
can, where he directs the gardeners and
takes the healthy interest in their work
that would be shown by any ordinary
country gentleman. After his walk he
converses with any visitors who have
been allowed to approach him, and at 4
o'clock he once more ggives audience to
his Cardinals and Bishops About p.
m. he takes little rest AMI works alone
until $50, when supper is served From
that time till about IL or II the Pope
occupies himself with reading theological
works sent him by the Nuncios from all
parts of the world. This is pretty well for
a man who was "a in March.

ANDERSONvILLE TO-DAY.

Anderson is the name of station on
the Southwestern Railroad, about sixty
miles from Macon. It is nothing but a
railroad station, and the only thing that
characterizes the spot is the immense
Union cemetery of some twenty acres,
over which floats the star spangled ban
ner. The cemetery is constructed on the
spot where the prisoners were buried, and
the trenches were dug with such pre-
cision and regularity that the soldiers
were not disturbed, but allowed to remain
as their comrades inferred them, working
under the watchfnl eye and fixed bayon-
cts of the Georgia Home Guard.
The cemetery is surrounded by stout
wall, with an iron gate, and is under the
supervision of uperintendent, who
lives on the grounds. 1t is plain spot.
There is not much attempt made to Or
nament this city Of our martyred dead
1t would take great deal of even such
influence as plants and flowers possess to
dispel the melancholy memories that
haunHthiss hill in the pine woods of.SOuth-
ern Georgia. There are actually buried
on this elevation 1875 men. The sol
dier whose identity was preserved by his
comrades is marked in his resting place
by white marble stone rising ten inches
above the ground. A square marble
block with thegword unknown on it is
repeated about 1000 times in the ceme-
terry.
Part of the stockade is still standing.
There are two rows of trees-one inside
the other The outer row has fallen
down, save few posts here and there,
but large part of the inner wall still
stands. Trees have grown up around
the old pen, and thick growth of under
brush now covers up the prison. No
traces of the famous brook that ran
through the stockade remain, nor OF the
wonderful well dug by the prisoners. 1t
is all now a mild and peaceful section of
the country. Many Of the soldiers in the
cemetery have handsome headstOnes lift
ed to their memory by friends III the
North, and efforts are frequently made to
have certain graves "kept green with
flowers and shower pot.-Cincinnati

A New STYLE LIFEBoAT.-A new life
boat was recently tested in the Thames,
off Westminster, Eng, and acted admir-
ably, Its construction consists of hull
or body formed of two curved tn bes,
meeting at the ED so as to form the bow
and stern of the boat The space elicit
ed bv these tubes is filled within by a
decking placed midway of the depth of
the hull. The water-line is below the
middle or deck-line, so that whichever
way the boat is put in the water 1t
is always the right way up. The thwarts
are movable in parts. The deck is formed
partly of wood and partly of rope netting.
The body of the boat it either made OF
wood or of steel plates, and divided up
into compartments by means OF bulk
heads, which will serve for storing pro-
visions in, but it can be constructed of
cork if desired. The two ends are alike,
and the rudder and mast can be fitted so
that she can move through the water
either end first.
MRS LANGTRY REvENGED.-Mrs.
Langtry's special Car, in which she makes
her home during her present trip was
drawn up on switch of the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Railroad
at Scranton, yesterday afternoon, in the
rear of clothing house. Some OF the clerks
inspired by a spirit Of mischief, hung out
a block dummy figure just before the
window and in front of where Mrs.
Langtry sat. 1t was a coarse-looking
efigy, labeled Freddie, Some Of The
porters connected with Mrs. Langtry's
train saw it. They snatched it and flung
it through the rear window of the cloth
ing house, smashing the glass into dust.
The clothing house clerks did not consid-
er this quite so funny, and they clamored
for the price ofthe broken window. This
they did not get, and the general verdict
was that it served them right. Sympathy
was all on the side of Mrs. Langtry, who
played "Galatea" that night before a
large audience, which called her before
curtain at the close of every act.

"a patch on the seat Of a boys trows-
ers," sapiently remarks a Connecticut
paper, sis something new under the son.
1t was o1ce thought that anything new
was less valuable than an older competi-
tor. Age does not always bring wisdom,
however. We live IN an age of inven-
tons and improvements. Ely's Cream
Balm is not a new preparation. People,
hundreds of them, have used it for years.
1t is, however, new in one respect. It is
the only certain cure for catarrh so far
discovered. "My daughter and myself,
great sufferers from catarrh," says G.. NJ.
Stanley, dealer in boots and shoes, Itha-
ca, n, Y, "have been cured by EIy's
Cream Balm. 1t restored my sense of
smell and health" S. A, Lowell, of
Franklin, Pa says "Ely's Cream Balm
is worth its weight in gold as a cure for
catarrh. One bottle of it cured me.,'
This Balm is not liquid or snuff, and is
easily applied. 1t is fragrant, pleasant
aud certain in its effects. 33
SUEz CANAL.-LoNDoN, May 25.-The
Suez Canal problem is getting daily into
a more tangled condition, and De Les
seps is much more active in his efforts to
save himself than is the British Ministry
in its efforts to protect English interests.
Parliament seems disposed to take a
hand in the discussion, which will not
expedite, matters. This evening Mr..
Gladstone sent to the House of Commons
the communications which passed b tween
the Cabinet and the Count de Lesseps.
They show how energetic the Frenchman
has been. The so-called Egyptian Com
mission, consisting Of one Italian and
two French lawyers, seems to have been
constructed especially to serve the Can.
al Company, and the manner of its ap-
pointment and the haste with which il
acted, would indicate that De Lesseps
and the Egyptian Government are in
thorough sympathy with each other, and
they are little inclined to consider En-
gland in the matter.
1t is said that the Indians of Alaska do
not belong to the same race as the North
American Indians, but that they are
probably an offshoot from the Japanese
or Coreans. The missionaries who have
been laboring among them say that in
many respects their conceptions of moral
law are better than those of civilized ma
tions.

DIGGING UP INDIAN GRAVES.

The curious discoveries IN tie eXplOra-
ton of the altar mounds in Anderson
Township, Ohio. are made all the more
interesting by the fact that native col
has for the first time been found in the
mounds. Among the numerous orna
ments unearthed, including those OF
mica, shells, bears teeth, stone, copper,
iron, and silver, was one small copper
pendant covered with thin sheet OF gold.
Other copper ornaments were covered
with hammered sheets of native silver
and the hammered metal bracelets, the
large spool-shdped earrings, the terra
Gotta figures revealing the peculiar meth
DDS of weaving the hair, show that the
fashionable young woman OF Madison
square is not so far apart in ethnolOgc in
terest from the mystic maidens Of the
altar mounds as she might suppose.
Moreover, in thousands of objects OF
interest obtained in these mounds, there
are ornaments when in point Of novelty
are not now rivaled, for there are ear
ornaments made of meteoric iron, plated
with iron, A serpent cut out of mica,
an animal carved from stone, three hun
dred astragoIi of the deer and elk, ap-
parently collected for some important
reason, and unique objects in micaceous
schist, obsidian chaledony and ebert
were found upon these quaint altars.
Bit by bit, as the leafy mold is taken of
the foot prints of time, there seems to
come out of darkness glimpses of cul
tured race that passed over the continent
before the North American Indians came
here, burying their dead in stone boxes
along the Ohio, where they are now be-
ing unearthed, aud ornamenting their
persons with peculiar and precious met
ais.
