given by some of the young
people of that village, \ pleasant evening
was spent, and then came the usual COLA
hon,- one OF the chief features of which
was some delicious cake. The gushing
young Sacramentan took occasion to pub
icly express his appreciation of the cake.
he glanced coquettishly
about the circle of young ladies present
that he would " like to be introduced to
the cook" Somebody replied that the
author Of that cake was Slightly indisposed.
but that by going short distance the Sac
ramentan might have the pleasure of being
presented. lie was only too eager. and
was marched off to small cottage in the
outskirts of the town, and into the kitchen,
the only occupant of which was q greasy
looking Chinaman. This is the cook
that made that cake said his escort, with
a low bow, as he backed out of the room

\ MARROW ESCAPE Yesterday after
noon, Mrs. A. ]. Senate wife of the pro-
prietor of the Mississippi Kitchen, on Third

happened as follows; She stepped behind
the counter and took a seat not noticing a
lighted candle on the floor that her husband
had beer using q moment before in placing
some been in the cellar. Her dress and
skirts caught on fire, and the first she
knew of it she was in flames. She jumped
from behind the counter and called
waiter 70 take piece OF carpet and smother
it out. The waiter took a bucket of water
and threw it upon the burning clothing,
and then followed it up by upsetting
whole tank of ice water over the burning
woman. The flames were thus speedily
extinguished. Mrs. Senatz's hands and
arms were badly burned in her attempt to
hold down her skirts and smother the
flames. The young man who went to her
rescue also received some painful burns on
his hands and arms.

Nor BAD IDEA.-A correspondent sug-
gests that somebody might make hand
some fortune by inventing some sort of a
continuance that would when fastened to
the necks of street-car drivers, and work.
ing automatically, cause them to turn their
heads and look down each cross street. In
this way they would be compelled to take
cognizance OF persons struggling to secure
rides. The idea is not bad one.
