The Chevalier de Sartini has at last come to
grief. He was the most elegant chevaler-but of
UtdHstyie that has appeared since long time. He
speculated in the vanity of human wishes his
speciality, not exactly novelty, consisted in palm
ing off bogus decorations on simpletons. There
was no Order almost that he could not obtain
for a client, for good consideration. 1t appears
he had some footing in society, and ON the day of
Gambetta's funeral he managed to be installed be-
tween the English and Russian ambassadors.
From that moment he "struck ile" tits Marvells

At the expiration of the late Govern

demanded an accelerated service by sea

tract for the improved train service has
been undertaken by the London and
North Western Railway Company, while
the sea service is again intrusted to the

George Carr and:Miss Louisa Graham,
Of this village, went sleigh-riding on Sum
day night. On the river road, two miles
from here, a small animal ran across the
road in front Of the horse, and, Jumping
On the fence, stopped there. Cerr got out
,,f the sleigh and approached the animal,
which did not move away. The day be-
fore pet raocoon belonging to brother
Of Miss Graham had disappeared. Carr
was about to strike the animal on the fenc,
with the butt Of his heavy whip, when
Miss Graham exclaimed:
"oh, don't! It's Mates lost coon. Catch
IL and give IL to me-"
Carr dropped his whip and reached out
both hands TO sieze the supposed tame
coon, when the animal suddenly threw his
head forward and caught the young man
by the fingers of both hands, and held on
so tightly that he could not shake 1t Off.
Carr was helpless, and cried to his COM
pan ion to get out and aid him. She did
so, and was compelled to beat the animal
to death with the whip before Carr could
release his hands. The first two fingers
on the right hand and three on the left
were bitten so they remained hanging only
by three pieces Of skin to the hands, and
all five have been ampu ated. The ami.
nal proved to be an opossum, tho first one
ever seen wild in this vicinity.

to members of Henry K. Whites family,

thirty years ago he was in Whately

was found, but no vouchers for the several
thousand dollars which the will mentions.
1t Is now recalled that he sent letter te
his brother asking for $500 while he was
sick, and that his brother wrote he would

hopes have been raised by the strange
freaks Of miserly old man or whether he
was actually well of and took this way Of

probably be known in few days as the

tvogansvllle (Pa.) Special
On the brow OF the Caornarvon hills lives
an oldi man named Joseph Shrk. He
owns small tract Of wood land and some
cleared land which he has occupied for
over a quarter Of century. His dwell
ing is modest one-story frame, and the
passer-by, unacquainted with the man
within, would imagine him to be simple
mountaineer or small farmer. But Shirk
is something more.
On number Of rude shelves in the lower
room of his house he has arranged large
number Of mathematical instruments, all
of which he made himself after his agri-
cultural toll was over for the day. A
small stream running down from the
mountain side turns n wheel which fur
nishes him with power to turn rude lathe
OF his own construction. The room Is a
regular machine shop, In which the old
man turns out various instruments solely
for his own amusement. His last pro.
duction Is civil engineers transit.
He Is an expert in making as
Economical calculations. iHe has tel
escopes, quadrants, globes, chains,
and other articles, all Of which he made
In his machine shop. Around him the
region is veny wild and rough, yet old man
Shirk lives alone with his instruments, and
passes his time merrily. At one time he
was a smart young school teacher, but
circumstances changed the course OF his
life and led him to q hermits existence on
