A Very Natural Mistake.

Herr Klimper is very stout man
weighing upwards of two hundred
pound. He is aprofessor of music, and
gives lessons on the piano. He is also
somewhat of an inebriate He recently
moved into rooms in the fifth story of
Harlem apartment house. He cele-
brated his moving into new quarters by
getting drunk. He came home about
twelve o'clock, and the fact that it took
him three-quarters of an hour to ascend
the stairs to his rooms proves that he
must have been having a very nice time
of it with his boon companions.
Next morning two old ladies living
on the floor below conversed about the
new tenant.
Have you seen the new tenant, Herr
KlimperP"
'No, I've not seen him, but it is very
inconsiderate in him to have his piano
brought up into his room at twelve
o'clock at night, disturbing the board
ers. 1t must be an awful big piano by
the trouble they had with It t."-Teras

How He Prevented p Proud Woman From
Suing for Divorce.
A well-known Chicago lawyer re-
Gently told the following story, taking
good care to conceal the identity of all
parties at interest: ga year or SO ago a
married woman called at my office and
requested private interview. She be-
longed to the best social circles, and
her husband was man of means. L
had known husband and wife, and the
entire family, for many years. When
we were alone the woman said to me:

here for?
81 certainly do not, madam, l re-
piled.
"'Well, / want divorce and want
you to get it for me. My mind is made
up, and won't stand it any longer.
81 questioned her as to he cause of
her sudden determination, learned that
she had just had one of series of rows
with her husband, growing out of al
most nothing at all, and | told her to
say nothing about her interview with
me, but to call the next day, when,
having carefully considered the matter
| would advise her as to the best course
to pursue. She left in good spirits,
and when she came to my office the fol-
lowing day she was perfectly free from
excitement. She had left it all to me,
and had not worried about her case,
confident that | would suggest an easy
way by which she could rid herself of
an uncongenial husband-I say uncon-

The Intelligent Englishman.

The London Times is informed
byits able New York correspondent
that Ben. Harrison's election is op-
posed by the prohibitionists because
he is q hard cider" candidate.
This marvellous genius also tells
the British public that ''lf you can
imagine Mr.. Gladstone defeated in
a caucus of the liberal party, and q
grandson of Gully, the prize-6ghter,
nominated in his stead, you will
appreciate the position of Senator
Sherman and the universal SYM
pathy excited by it." AS for Mr..
Depew, being opposed by the
grangers, che saw that he had fall
en- among political thieves and
promptly withdrew his name"
Then the correspondent gravely
asserts that zone of the curious
features of the Chicago convention
was that the opening prayer, an
ultra partisan appeal to the Deity,
was frequently interrupted by ap-
plausc. The devotional exercises
proceeded in this manner: sour

INCIDENTS AND ACCIDENTS.
Horrible Fate Of Six Tramps-Warring
Kansas Towns.

The towns of Woodsdale and
Hugotown, Stevens county, Kansas,
are rivals. On Thursday, July 26,
Sam Robinson, City Marshal of
Hugotown. and NJ Cook, of the
same place, went to ranch some
miles from town, accompanied by
their wives, to look up some cattle.
While taking dinner the deputy
sheriff, a Woodsdale man, accom-.
panied by five other Woodsdale
men, rode up to the party and ask
ed Robinson to surrender, as he
had warrant for his arrest. Rob-
inson said he would 60 a short dis
lance from camp, leaving Cook and
the ladies behind, and then give his
enemies chance TO take him. He
did so and on reaching a convenient
spot both parties opened fire with
the result that four Woodsdale men
were slain. The other two fled and
Robinson escaped without scratch.
Cook fastened to Hugotown and
gave the alarm and soon an armed
squad went to their assistance.
Meeting q lot of Woodsdale men,
an encounter took place in which
three more men were killed and
number wounded. The citizens of
Woodsdale have ordered 100 Win
chesters and wagon load Of am
munition.
Six tramps were killed one day
this week in railroad accident in
Southwestern Nebraska. Un-
fortunately for them they happened
to be secreted in an Inflated old car
that was loaded with shelled corn,
and met their fate in what must
have been the most tragic manner
imaginable. When the train crew,
two hours after the accident, began
tearing away pieces OF the broken
car, imagine their surprise when
the dead body of a man was dis
covered. They continued the res
cuing until six lifeless forms were
taken from the debris. I

NOTHING DEFINITE.
A Few Straws to Show Which Way
the Railroad Wind Il Blowing.

The San Francisco Bulletin of
the 9th, ult., says: THE Oregon
Pacific is planning TO put on more
steamers between this port and va
quina. Negotiations are pending,
which if concluded, will be a bene
fit to that section of the country.
There has been general theory
from the first that the Chicago &
Northwestern company was inter-
ested in the Oregon Pacific. and
that some day the two would form
a transcentincntal line. 1t is now
learned that the matter of backing
and connections are now being con-
sidercd officially by the directorsof
the companies. Whether the lines
viii unite depends upon the decision
of Il few men, but there is the best
authority for the statement that the
topic is now being regarded from a
favorable point of view"
In response to an inquiry by Il
Portland News reporter about work
on the Oregon Pacific, Wallis Nash
replied: Nothing definite has been
done as yet. Chief Engineer Eek
erson has just returned from East
ern Oregon, where he has been re-
locating some lines surveyed last
summer, whereby he has saved con-
siderable distance in the roadbed.
AS to whether anything will be done
yet this summer, l am unable to
say. General Manager Hoag is ex-
pected to arrive soon from San
Francisco, and after his arrival
affairs will most undoubtedly
assume definite form and the
work of construction be resumed"

Keep tie Boys at Home.

1--WE frequently observe boys, from
mine to fifteen years old, lettering
about the city saloons. 1t occurs
to us that child thus permitted to
roam about the streets, of his own
instructive will ana desire, is
thing of neglected parental guar
dianship. A boy is not presumed
to exercise the discretion and moral
judgment of a person of mature
years. He is attracted toward
scenes, not common to his home
new, and, to hfms exciting phases
of life. A runaway horse, a dog
fight, a crowd of people, a drunken
man, the clinking of glasses and
the music of, the ale-house, excite
his curiosity and engage his atten-
ton. If deprived of home culture,
home amusements and, especially,
home care and parental love and
watchfulness, he is inclined to seek
diversion in the dangerous "street

last week to get their rations when

Cured. The untutored savages
were filed with alarm and became
very demonstrative. The principal
chief ordered them to shoot at the
'evil thing trying to harm the
moon," and the entire force of In
dams opened fire in the sair, keep
ing up the shooting for upward Of
an hour and until they were out of
ammunition. When the moon APP
peared in full after the eclipse wild
whoops went up for what they be-
lieved to have been their victory.
