In q German Crash,

An American woman who attended
the funeral of the German Emperor in
company with her son. a lad of IL. says:
ut was shockingly managed affair.
We came near being crushed to death.
l was hustled one way. my boy another.
For hours | was frantic in the crowd,
without being able to stir hand or foot.
A gentleman had the boy with him, but
the excitement of the mob was SO great
l feared he couldn't hold him. Women
were killed; one old lady was walked
right over; Il horse was thrown down
and trampled on; one man put his hand
up to reach for II cane friend was try
ing to hand him, and he couldn't get
his arm down again for upward of an
hour. We saw all the pageant and
came out safely. but we waited from 5
until q. III. for it to begin; then came
the rushing and crushing. AT 10 o clock
the soldiers and police led the detach-
mont pass to which we belonged. At
1880 we entered the dome, and the
sight we saw was some compensation
for the trials we endured. but nothing
could be worth the risk we took, and
| never would attempt such thing
again. A German crowd is not lima
turned expression, but man would
trample on his mother il she were in
his way. The number wounded and
killed was groat, but there was not a
word about them in the German pa
pers; all reports of the sort were sup
pressed. "-Shoe and Leather Reporter.

Lucky John Harrington.

Mining Gazette, June a.
Last Monday afternoon the Gazette re.
porter met Mr.. John Harrington, the gen
tleman that was so lucky in the May
drawing of the Louisiana State Lottery.
Like the substantial. mattcr.of fact man
that he IS, he continues in his old position
as engineer at the Atlantic Mining com
pany's stamp mill, not having taken Il
single day from his duties to celebrate his
good fortune His ticket, which was one
tenth of No. 81. 49?, the one that drew
the second capital prize Of $50, 900, was
the second that he had bought in the
Louisiana State Lottery. He has there
fore sent that institution but 81 His
prize of 5000 was collected for him by
the National Bank of Houghton as soon
after the drawing as the necessary cores.
pondence could be completed. The money
was promptly invested by him in stock of
the Calumet & Hccla Mining company,
buying twenty shares at S2i2 each. From
the dividend of s. per share. payable
July 6, which this company's unparalleled
deposits of copper have enabled it to earn
In spite Of its recent losses by fire, Mr..
Harrington will receive the snug sum Of
500. This is the income of his money
during the first month of his possession
of it. He has lived in the Lake Superior
copper district twenty five years, twelve
of which have been spent at the Atlantic
stamp mill. Two Of his sons are employ
ed in the mill with their father.

Social Etiquette.

There are a number OF things that
the most fashionable and well bred peo-
pie now eat at the dinner table with
their fingers, and the Chicago herald
enumerates them as follows:
Olives. to which fork should never
be applied.
Asparagus. whether hot or cold,
when served whole. as it should be.
Lettuce. which should be dipped in
the dressing, or in little salt.
Celery. which may properly be placed
on the tablecloth beside the plate.
Strawberries. when served with the
stems on. as they usually are in the
most elegant houses.
Bread, toast and all tarts and small
cakes.
FRUIT of all kinds, except melons
and preserves, which are eaten with a
spoon.
Cheese, which is almost invariably
eaten with the fingers by the most par
ticular people.
Even the leg or other small piece OF
ri is taken i'll tho fingers at fash.
ionable dinners, and at most Of the
luncheons ladies' pick small pieces OF
chicken without us NJ fork.
