A Rim Van Wrinkle Toad,

While Bliss Smith was superintend-
ing some work at Smiths mill, Sea-
douc, his attention was directed to an
unusual appearance in the cross section
of solid trunk of rockmaple they
were engaged in saving into hardwood
plank. To the establishment Of Mr..
Smith and men they discovered the
saw had Just sliced off the roof from
the res idence of toad that had taken
up his quarters in the heart of
the tree. Mr.. Smith picked out the
squatter with two nails. The animal
was perfectly soft, and appeared to be
in semi-torpid condition. Unfortu-
nately, however, while the men were
examining this ancient king of the
maple, he fell down upon the mill floor
and rolled through an opening in the
boards. Mr.. Smith hunted after him
for half an hour, but with no success.
This is veritable Rip Van Wrinkle
toad. The maple tree was large and
solid, with not a sign of decay any
where. The toad lay at its very heart
and must have been there many years.
Think of it! Asleep for perhaps one
hundred years. and then seeing the
light.

The VIA DOGS Of wyoming 9.

Two years ago several domestic dogs
strayed into the mountains on the head
Of Wind River and became "iid. They
have now increased to some twenty in
number, and have developed a fierce
spirit They have located on an i'm
mcnsc cliff. and from here they issue
on their excursions. which are very dis
astrous to heyoung stock Of the ranges,
the dogs killing and deyouring the
strongest and most active caiye, and
easily pulling down q ycarling. A few
days ago as one Of the employees of
one Of the large cattle ranches
was hauling hay his route took
him by the Cliff of the Dogs.
As he passed the denS the savage in
habitants swarmed ont in full force and
made a most determined onslaught on
him and the team. 1t took a wild race
of three or four miles to shake them Oft

A Worthy Policy.


Wholesome public sentiment i, respect
ed in retaining a gallant veteran like Cob
Greculcul and the liberal policy of Jellcr-
son and Madison is followed by II manly
endeayor to take politics out of the public
service entirely, through division OF pub
lie employment between the two parties,
We hope this is to be the policy of Mr.,
Smalley's administration throughout,
The Franklin county appointment will
naturally excite the most interest be
cause of the suspicion that Smalley would
use the patronage for the benefit of the
Smith ring. We should judge from the
names that he has endeavored To balance
the favOrs between both sides of the party.
At least Major Ballard whom he has ap-
pointed at Swanton, has been u plucky
and thorough-going opponent of the ring,
and the custom house at Swanton, under
this rule, will never do any dIsreputable
work for Smith or any one else. On the
other hand b. +. Kelley was Smiths can
dldate for sheriff of Franklin county last
year, and o. H. Sheridan has been one of
Smiths Democratic workers.

From the Troy Press.
The people of Troy and vicinity have
for several days past seen Il new boat
upon the waters of the Hudson. The lit
tie novelty has attracted almost as much
attention as was accorded the first steamer
that attempted to sail the river, and has
been universally admired by all who have
witnessed her evolutions. This craft. the
first of the kind that ever sailed the
waters of the Hudson river, is owned by
Mr.. l.. y. Wetherby, IL member ui
the firm of Cluett Il Sons of
this city, The chief attraction about
this boat consists III the pro
pelling power, which Is an engine run
by Kerosene oil. The engine, of new and
unique construction, was manufactured in
Rochester, y. V, patented in 1854, and rs
Il sample of the finest modern meChauis m
cannot be eXcelled. The pressure OF steam
is steadily maintained at from eighty to
one hundred pounds. one gallon of oil
costing about eight cents at WhOlesalc-iS
sufficient to run the boat at an average
speed of eight miles for one hour. There
are no vessels of more stately and magn,ii-
cent proportions that have more modern
convenieuces for safety than the Neither
by, and the captain of the little craft Is in
the most amiable mood when the boat Is
filled with friends for II sail along the
banks of the Hudson. Last evening the
Press repOrtorial force was invited to a
ride on the jaunty little boat, ami for the
first time witnessed the operations of the
new machinery 1t was the universal YER
diet of those on board that Capt. Wether-
by Is entitled to much credit for having
introduced on the Hudson Il new and
unique boat that is destined to he
come immensely popular with all who
are fond of sailing. This boat has been
fitted up and the machinery placed in
position under the personal direction of its
owner who Is practical engineer, and
thoroughly understands how to manage
the craft in rough or smooth water. Be
fore Capt. Wetherby was allowed to sail
pass an examination before competent
boards as an engineer and pilot and per
mission to use Kerosene as Il motive power
appeared so absurd that he was obliged
to obtain permission from Mr.. Manning,
the present Secretary of the Treasury.
Several other parties in Troy and
vicinity who have for some days watched
the little "Wetherby' and her free and
easy methods and fast sailing qualities.
have decided to procure boats of the same
construction for another year. Two boats
of similar pattern are already in process
of construction for Trey people, and an
other year will doubtless see the river
adorned with a dozen or more of the same
pattern. Capt Wetherby intends next
week to take his little steamer to Lake
Champaign for "A weeks vacation MI
Wetherby has an extensive acquaintance
and many friends among the people of
Vermont, and his trip with the latest
novelty of the present century cannot tall
of olfording much pleasure 10 himself rs
well as excite the curiosity of those whom
he may chance To meet during the voyage.

THEY DEMAND Az INCREASE.


PlTTsBURG, Pa, Sept THE strike
inaugurated yesterday by River coal MN
ers for an advance Of half cent per
bushel in the mining rate, is spreading
rapidly, and it is estimated that nearly
1000 men are idle. The strikers are great
ly encourf ged by the success of the move
ment and claim that by Monday every
mine in the Monongehela valley will be
closed and 1000 miners out for the increase.
A prominent operator admitted this morn
ing that the men would gam their
point if the strike lasted five weeks. The
fight of the Knights of Labor against the
miners union promises to result in the

At the Graye of His Victim.

ST. LOUIS, Sept. On. DeVanney was
taken out of Jail here to-day to attend the
funeral of the woman he murdered. Much
surprise was expressed when it was learn
ed that the State officers had let him out
for that purpose The murderer was in
tears at the grave of his victim. DeVan-
ney was taken out by the deputy sheriff
and the privilege granted at the request
of Prosecutor Claghorn, who says the fa-
vor was granted at the desire of DeNan-
ney's family. This is said to be the first
case of the kind on record.
