A Canoe VoYaGe.

The interest of the loUngers about the
wharves Monday evening was centered
in little craft, of rig comparatively IN
known in Montreal, which was espied
coming down the harbor, and shortly
after headed for Joe Vincent's basin,
where its only occupant jumped ashore
and carried his boat into the boat house,
says the Montreal Star. It soon became
known that the hale and hearty looking
gentleman who so mysteriously landed
in Montreal was one of the adventurous
members of the Knickerbocker Canoe
Club, of New York, who left Cape Vim
cent, on Lake Ontario, about fortnight
ago, with the intention of running all of
the St. Lawrence rapids to this city,
and, as he was carrying his frail craft
into the boat-house, he was accorded a
hearty cheer by the bystanders. The
adventurous voyager is DIR. G. E. Wood
man, who first proposed the trip to the
members of the club. He left Cape Vim
cent on the 18th inst, and has conse-
quently been thirteen days on the trip.
At Ogdensburg he was joined by half
dozen other members of the club, but
soon afterward they parted company, not
then having decided to come the whole
distance. The doctor had had, on the
whole, pleasant trip of it, although
the weather was very changeable and the
recent storms delayed his progress. He
ran the Long Sault, Coteau, Cedars,
Split Rock, and Cascade rapids, and
would have Fdone" the Lachine rapids
also, but was persuaded from doing so
on account of the high water and unfa-
vorabIe wind. He was determined to
make the whole trip by water, however.
and consequently came down the canal.
The trusty little vessel which has so well
brought the doctor over his perilous
course is a small, decked, lapstreak
canoe, fourteen feet long. She is named
the Stella Maris, and is built of white
cedar, with deck of red Spanish cedar.
She is fitted with slip keel and sail, and
progresses in calm weather by donble
bIaded paddle. Her internal arrange
ments are perfect, and her occupant
slept In her during the whole voyage, a
neat canvas covering being drawn over
the well at night, and an air mattress on
the bottom Of the little vessel making
one Of the most comfortable of beds.

even use it until You become an expert
in testing by taste, smell and rubbing.
AN English paper, in commenting
upon a subject, remarks that the Chess
hire dairy farmer, by free use of bone
manure laid on the grass lande, makes
his farm, which at one time, before the
application of bone manure, fed only
twenty head of COWS, now feed forty. In
Cheshire two-thirds or more, generally
three-fourths, of a dairy farm are kept in
perfect pasture, the remainder in t1llage.
Its dairy farmers are commonly bound to
lay the whole of their manure, not on the
arabic, but on the grass land, purchas-
ing whatmay be necessary for the arabic.
The chief improvement besides draining
consists in the application of bone man
ure. In the milk of each cow, in it's
urine, In it's manure, in the bones Of each
calf reared and sold off, farm parts
with as much earthly phosphates of lime
as is contained in half a hundred weight
of bone dust. Hence the advantage of
returning this mineral manure by boning
grass lands. The quantity of bones now
commonly given in Cheshire to an acre
of glass land is 1890 to 1900 weight.
This dressing on pasture land will last
seven or eight years, and on moved land
about half that period.

Terrors of the TeIenhone.

[From the Ingham (DIfch.} County News.J
Several comical things have occurred
since our citizens have begun to form
the acquaintance of the great talking
medium. Two ladies from the country
who observed with surprise the closely
clipped hair Of G. G.. Parkhurst, were
filed with surprise and awe when he
gravely told them that this sad capillary
condition was occasioned by the anger
of a jackson man who, not liking the
tone of his telephone conversation,
reached in and ''snatched him bald
headed" by telephone. Another lady
put space between herself and the ''ma-
chine" while her husband conversed.
She was afraid ''the thing would go
off, f" and she did not want both heads of
the family to be killed at once. A lady
commenced talking with Lansing. She
screamed into the ear of the instrument
at the top of Der not feeble voice.
When asked why so much noise, she ex-
planned that she supposed she must
speak loud enough to be heard at Ian
sing, but it didn't seem as if she could
possibly do it.

A Bad indian Conquered by Soup.
(From the Philadelphia Times.J

''An Apache, in full war paint, stalked
into an Indian school at Albuquerque,
N. M. one day. The children were I'M
mediately terrified, and tremblingly
told rs he was a bad Indian. They
said an uncle of one of our boys had
killed his brother, and they feared he

revolvers on the table before him. The
children began to tremble. l summoned

He stood upon her left. Her pocket
containing the money was upon the
right.

How she trembIed! But forcing her
self to speak calmly she said:
''Al Parrish, if you will rob me, let us
go beyond this burying ground"
He started, and cast frightened
glance over his shoulder, and in that in
slant Matte withdrew her hand from
her pocket, and with all her might she
flung her handkerchief, money and all,
as far into the weeds as possible.
"Come along, them" he said ''but
make haste.
And Tightening his hold he dragged
her forward.
''Oh, God in heavenw she murmured,

Quick as a flash she was free, and

Again he grasped her arm, and with

her throat.
One scream. piercing and shrill. Was
that an answer, or was it merely an

With fearful oath, the young robber
dealt cruel blow upon the fair brow,
and she fell fainting at his feet.
When she revived, she lay still in the
road, with the stars shining over her,
but three faces, white as her own, bent
above her, and three pairs of loving
hands we're administering to her.
"Do you feel better, Matie?" the three
boys asked, in chorus.
And Matte, rising upon her elbow,
asked:
"Where is hep"
"He's gone, Matte, and if you are
able, Charley will go home with you,
and Gus and I will try to catch, him, -
said Dan.
But Matte, now fully recovered, said:

There were three pairs of incredulous,
but admiring, eyes fastened upon her as
she proceeded to tell her story, and led
the way to the ''hidden treasure"
They had found her lying insensible,
while her pocket, emptied and turned
inside out, told the tale.
But, nevertheless, it was as she said.
And snugly in bunch of white clover
the tiny handkerchief lay, and the money
was safe.
She wept in her mothers arms, and
the boys did not laugh.
''Do not tell of this" she urged, ''for,
you know, his mother loves him."

persist that she is ga little coward. " after

A bank cashier has lived too fast

A tale of which tits sad to think;

Yet, this is like the stuff we read:

The Wait of the Battlefield.
IFrom the Wheeling InteTHgencer.I


To-day l met a lady whose talents as
a musician and whose remarkable beauty
had attracted my attention. She possess
sed that rare type of prettiness that is
wholly southern-great deep blue eyes,
the face perfect In every feature, hair
rich in abundance and wonderful in it's
tint. This is her story: Twenty years
ago, when the tide of battle swept over
the terrible field of Manassas, baby
girl was left an orphan on the battle
ground. During the changes of the
fateful day the home Of the little blue
eyed girl was directly between the fires
of both armies. AS the first shots whist
eled above the house the parents started
to flee for place Of refuge.
A dozen yards from the door both
were shot down, and the baby, an or
phan, without sister or brother, was
alone in the world. The battle ragged
on, the dead and dying were everywhere,
but the baby was unframed. The day
wore away, and just as the suns last
rays, half hidden in the curling smoke,
kissed the earth good night, Gen. Jubai
EARLY, riding by, heard the baby's cries.
He dismounted, and, taking the little
waif up, cared for it until he could place
it nnder the care of his sisters. They
watched it through its infantile years.
giving 1t an education and a world OF
love, and now that baby, grown to wom-
anhood, lovely and accomplished, the
pet of a wide circle of friends, who call
heT ''Waif, " is the sole support of these
two women, sisters of the rebel general.
If [ should write her name it would not
be strange one here, for all the city
knows Miss Ida Henry.

Defense of American Pie.
rFrom the Indianapolis News

The English can mix up a mess of
meat, potatoes and dough, foot across
and six inches deep, bake it, and when
it is cold dig it out and eat it. They
call that ''ple," and it is allowable to eat
that sort Of thinG--a mess of indigesti-
BILE, unpalafable stuff, as witness Sam
Weller's testimony to the ''veal pie,
that it was the sseas0nin' as does it. ,"
But when we propose to eat bit of thin
crRst, fresh baked, with fruit, making it
perfectly digestible, then the army of
dudes and the funny paragraphist of the
newspaper must set up NOM at the
provincial ignorance which would do so.
1t is time this sort of nuisance should
expend itself, Pie is an American dish;
it is palatable, comestible and digesti-

BURSTING of a Water Wheel.
[From the Grass Valley GCal.l Union.

OrdSS fa16y ECall
On Tuesday last an eight-foot Pelton
water-wheel was started at the Idaho
mine to drive the pumps. The wheel
was found to work admirably, and every
thing went along smoothly until 1870
o'clock Saturday night, when suddenly
the wheel burst into fragments, the pieces
flying into different directions, but for
tunately doing no other damage than
tearing away woodwork, and making
holes through the sides and roof of the
hoisting-works. One piece pursued a
very cratic course, going outside the
building and returning, fell within eight
cen inches of one of the WOrkmen who
stood near the top of the shaft. The en-
gineer had been in charge of the wheel a
few minutes before the accident to oil its
journals. and had not much more than
returned to his station when the fearful
sweeping crash cane. The wheel was
making 285 revolutions per minute, be-
ing driven by sixty inches of water under
$40 feet pressure, and of course when
the break came the pieces flew as if shot
out of cannon, and as the wheel was a
complete wreck it seemed almost mirac-
ulOus that there was no loss of life and
no greater damage to property. It was
at first supposed that there was some
flaw In the iron, but Supt. Coleman's
theory is that the rim of the wheel
(three- quarters of an inch in thickness)
was too light for the pressure and velo-
city under which it was running. It will
be necessary in future to make the large
sizes of these wheels stronger. The in
terruption of pumping at the works was
not of long duration on account of this
smash-up, as change of connection was
soon made to the big engine. and long
before daylight steam power was doing
