Personal Points and Pithy Paragraphs
From North Warren.

don't remember of ever seeing a
more quiet Christmas that is, so far
as drinking and rowdyism is concern
ed.
Some of the events that have trans
pired in our community for the past
few days are the following:
Mr.. Jas. Webb, according to his
custom for some years, gave birth
day dinner to his family and many
friends that could hardly be excelled.
Mr.. Oliver TOwles, of Gath, took
him partner for life in the person
of Miss Lula Womack, one of the
most charming young ladies in North
Warren. We wish them all the JOY
and sunshine through life that is al
loted to the children of men. We en-
joyed fine Unfair dinner at the resi-
dedce of the groom's father Christmas
evening.
The young people in the neighbor-
hood of Bluff Springs have enjoyed
themselves at two parties during the
week, and / suppose they all behaved
themselves in becoming manner.
Surely no gentleman would drink
whisky and lower the dignity of a
true gentleman in the presence of as
many nice girls as we have in this
community.
We had services at Mt. Zion by
Elder j. NJ. Kidwell commencing on
last Wednesday and closing Lords,
day. Each service was well attended
by an eager audience of attentive lis.
teners, and on Sunday a very large
audience was in attendance. Nc
doubt good was done. l am now in
my 44th year, and never enjoyed
such Christmas. P.

much.

John Martin caught up a yoke of
young oxen the other day for the pur-
pose of breaking them. After yoking
them together, he tied their tails to-
gether with strong cord to prevent
one running around the other. After
working them as long as he desired,
he unyOked them but failed to I'M
loose their tails. Bob Edge says that
John could have been heard quite a
distance saying, "Whoa Dick whoa
jim or you will pull off your blamed
tails !"

Bald Knob next Monday.
Henry White, of Rock Island, spent

The Christmas which has just passed
is said by most all to have been the
dullest that has passed for a num-
Der of years. We presume the reason
it is called a ''dull Cristmas" is be-
cause there was less ''wild cat" to be
hadthan has usually been the case.
We note with pleasure that there was
less drunkenness on our creek this
Christmas than we have ever seen.
If the absence of much brandy and
drinking to drunkenness makes a
dull Christmas, we trust that all our
Christmases in the future will be
"dull" ones. Prohibition is day by
day gaining foothold in our midst,
and we hope the time will come in
the near future when one will not be
left to advocate the cause of the king
evil, alcohol.

of the brides mother, Mr.. Young

A late Washington special to the

A wild craze has struck Leadville over
q new electric indicator that is used TO de-
termine the location, from surface obser.
vations, of underground mineral bodies,
II is the invention of a prominent %electri-
clan OF Boston and is constructed upon
the theory that the strong electric cur.
rents known to be induced by large min-
eral bodies can be utilized to locate the
latter. The machine is a simple affair,
consisting of electrodes which connect
with batteries in Q box containing an cleo
trio needle. The influence of the electric
subterrsnean currents upon the needle il
supposed to indicate the strength Of an
ore body. For instance, ore that would
swerve the needle 80 degrees would be
considered very strong, while Is or 20
would be correspondingly smaller.

A Brave Indian.

As the express train came in Wednesday
evening, says the Carson Index, a man fell
upon the track while attempting to cross
it just before the train came to the depot.
He apparently caught his toe against a
rail and fell with such violence as to be.
come stunned. The train was not more
than 100 yards away, and the man would
have been run over if an agile Piute had
not jumped to his rescue and dragged him
out Of his serious predicament. In doing
so the bold Indian narrowly escaped with
his own life. Tom Clark, the engineer,
did not SEQ them, and could not have
stopped the train anyhow, as 1t was toe
close to them. When the man recovered
his senses and learned what o narrow
escape he had, he went down into his
pocket and fished ou. a $40. piece which he
handed to the Indian, remarking: "Old
pard, you've earned it,"

A silver Ore Test.

An experienced silver miner gives the
following simple and reliable test for ell
yer ore: Pulverize the ore and roast in
salt over a slow fire. This will give chlor-
ide of silver. Take the roasted ore and
put into q strong solution of salt, and let
it stand "a hours. The result will be
chloride of silver in solution. Drain off
the solution carefully, evaporate and place
the residue in a test tube. Then add
nitric acid and you obtain nitrate of silver.
Put the mixture thus obtained into salt
and water. and the white precipitate is
pure chloride Of silver ready for mixing.
