LADIES' DEPARTMENT.
Latest Fashion for tho Hair.

The latest Partisan fashion for
dressing the hair is to have 1t cut very
short. as 1t was worn in the early part
of this century by Nine. Recamier and
Queen Hortense. At fashionable re-
unions In Paris the hair is arranged in
this way. and has bands or wreaths of
natural flowers. Bands of diamonds
and bracelets of precious stones are
also placed fiat against the hair. Some
ladies adopt the Sevigne coiffure.
This style is very appropriate with
toilets Of velours frappe, brocade and
damask, with very long trains. Queen
Marie Christine has also arranged a
couture after designs of the eighteenth
century, and the novelty has already
met with considerable success. The
hair is divided into three parts. The
first form small curls over the fore
head; the second is rolled back, and the
third forms tuft in the shape OF a
crown.

AN AROTAEGM.

"Robert Collyer tells us of one of the
best and wisest things General Grant
ever said: Men are more scarce than
heroes, remarked the soldier, with the
brevity which is begotten Of wit.
1.-THE hero is apt to be linear-he goes
further in one direction than any of his
fellows; but the man who, according to
Grant. is scarcer than heroes, is one who
is great all round the circumference of
duty and achievement. Heroism is
sometimes born of a single noble impulse;
true manhood is the calm result of strong
convictions. Grant was right"
The above is from the New York
Herald. We don't know when we have
run across a paragraph that struck us
with greater force. There is hard sense
in what Grant said as also in the COM
ments Of the Herald. It is the rarest
thing on earth to find a man great in all
things. The world is filed with special
ists-men who have mastered one sub.
ject. Four.fifths OF the men Of national
regulations owe their prominence to
achievements in one direction. Most of
them are sorry weaklings in all other
directions and on all other subjects. Men
who are strong and level. headed all along
the line OF Thought and action are, as
General Grant well put it, "scareer than
heroes"

BY FIRE.

Our Eureka boys in Butte have been
having bad luck. The office of the
Town Talk was a few nights since totally
destroyed by fire. The material cost
81, 500 and was insured for but $500. II
seems clear that the fire was of incendiary
origin. The many friends of the pub.
fishers in Eureka will greatly regret their
loss. But the boys are undismayed.
They came out the next day with o letter
sheet. which will be issued daily until
they get a new Office. They seem to
have the sympathy of the business men
Of Butte, and the little substitute con-
tains a great many generous offers of
assistance. Pluck and energy and close
application will soon repair the damage.
The new Town Talk, to be, has the sin.

LESSON FROM LIGHTNING.

In Spain last week a church was
wrecked by a thunderbolt while religious
services were being performed. Two of
the worshippers were struck by the
lightning and instantly killed, while
fifteen other persons in the congregation
were severely hurt.
Ii these casualties had occurred on a
Sunday picnic instead of in a church,
and to people engaged in amusing them
selves instead of worshipping God, there
would have been many to think and say
that the fire from heaven was simply an
instrument of punishment from the hand
of an offended Deity, to signify displeas.
ure at a transgression of His laws.
The doctrine of a special providence,
however. becomes peculiarly unsatisfac.
tory in cases like this.
Doubtless it is better to worship than
to revel; but if a congregation of wor-
shippers is in an ediice peculiarly ex.
posed to lightning, while a party OF
jewellers is in a properly protected build.
ing, the chances will be decidedly in
favor of the jewellers.
Lightning, like rain, seems inclined to
descend equally upon the just and the
unjust. As the just man who wishes tc
keep off the rain must use an umbrella,
80 the just man who wishes to keep of
the lightning must use a lightning rod.

CAUsE OF SUICIDE.

A journal in New York devoted to life
insurance publishes some interesting
United States. The figures are collated
for a period Of three years, beginning
with February, 1882, and concluding on
March l, 1885. The number of suicides
in this country has varied but little from
year to year. The figures show for 1888,
l,606; for 1884, l,409, and for 1885,
l,60S. The depression in the times
seems to have but little to do with the
tendency to self-destruction, since there
were substantially as many suicides in
good times as bad. The causes of suicide
for the last year of the three under re.
view are classified as follows:

THANKSGIVING TRAGEDY.

On a bright THANKSGIVING day,
And ne murmurs d 81 will tackle
Everything that comes my way"
"James his mother warned him,
"James. you mustn't eat too much,
You will find it dangerous business
Ealing turkey, quail and such.
James paid no attention to her,
Save to give passing frown,
But continued doing business
Putting all the viands down;
Venison, partridge, duck and rabbit,
Lobster, goose and chicken pie,
Salads, sauces, entrees, vanished
In the twinkle of an eye.
"Come, my son." exclaimed his father,
You have eaten quite enough
For you'll catch dreadful cole
Filling up on such rich stuff"
All in vain-his heir apparent,
Would not listen unto him,
But continued masticating-
Naughty, foolish, silly Jim,
Bigger, bigger grew bis stomach,
Filled with pies, cakes and meats
Rounder, fuller, tighter, plumper-
Still he did not cease to eat.
When last appeared the pudding,
James indulged a smOthered groan,
"Darling are you sick?' his mother
Querried in an anxious tone.
Then the foolish little fellow
Placed one hand upon his head,
And the other Oh his stom ach-
"Goshp' he feebly, family said.

Mamma shrieked and tore her hair;
But befors assistance reached him,
James had climbed the golden stair.

Ere enough of Jsmes was tonnd
To adorn q modest corner

Aged Skeletons in Connecticut.

A Bridgeport Conn, telegram of Nov.

depth of six feet from the grounds sur

| posture and in fair state of preserva-
ton. An examination of the bones
since their donation to the Bridgeport
historical and scientifcsocieties by those
versed in such matters makes it evident
that the burials took place before the
advent of white men here and long be-
fore the American Indians themselves
bad possession of the territory. The
frontal part of the forehead of each skull
appears to have been fattened after the
manner of some of the ancient Mexican
and the more recent Oregon "Flathead"
Indians. One of the skulls, that of an
apparently Young person, presents this
flat feature more strikingly than the
others. Another skull seems to have
received fracture before the decease of
the person to whom it belonged and to
have grown firmly together again. In
view of these observations the inference
drawn is that the skeletons are all that
remain of bodies buried hundreds of
years before white people settled here.
New England had its Indian tribes, and
history has told of ,eir habits and anti

Flatheads ever dwelt on the shores of

American Indian took + ossession is by
this discovery confrme> and further
by the fact that recently, near the
same ground the same contractor
brought to light, besides bones,
several stone hatchets and clay pipe or

used by American Indians, but which
must have been brought here by tribes
from Mexico or the west. DR.. Benjamin
Trumbell, in his history of Connecticut,
relates that impliments of foreign and
southwestern make. had been found
only in Kent, Linchfeld county, the
point where possibly Indians frstlocated,
but if the above Interpretation can be
accepted there had been Indians of
tribes unknown to the historian along
the shores of the sound during long
periods before the Kent arrivals of which
he speaks. Rev. Samuel circuit, who is
writing of Stanford and Bridgeport, con-
siders the discovery of great importance
and he will be thus enabled to incorpo-
rate facts of a novel and interesting
character.
