A SINGULAR ACCIDENT,
For Which $4,000 Damages Are
demanded From n Railroad

Thomas Martin has commenced an action
in the United States circuit court against the
Northern Pacific Railroad company to recover
$50, 900 damages for injuries sustained while
employed as brakeman and switchman in
the yard at Brainerd. 1t is claimed that the
draw-bar of car which he was coupling was
out of order, so that 1t permitted the cars to
come together in such a manner as to crush
him while coupling them. When he saw the
draw-bar was defective he attempted to es-
cape from being crushed. but while in the

The Republican party made its first serious
mistake in 1876" said Gen. Barrett sadly at
the Merchants yesterday, when it seated
President Hays by counting for him the votes
of states in which the Democrats were seated
as governors, who had been given smaller
majoritieS on the face of the returns than
had been given Tilden. By this proceeding
the Republican party lost its hold on the
strong moral sentiment Of the coun-
try; for if Hayes carried Louisi.
ana, the Republican candidate for
governor carried it and should have been
seated, and if the Democratic candidate for
governor was really elected Tilden certainly
carried the state. The people, who had al
ways stuck to the Republican party because
they believed it to be a party of courage and
honesty. saw that the organization had fallen
into the hands of different class of leaders
The election of 1876 was rebuke for the ex-
cesses and mismanagements which followed
war. Almost as severe q rebuke was admin
istered in 1882, and this year comes the most
signal rebuke in the history of any political
party in the history of the country. The
situation at present is very much like it " as
at the breakup of the old Wing party. With
out a word of warning the Know-No thing
party carried a number of states and elected
many congressman. Shortly thereafter the
Republican party was organized and al once
began to carry things

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS.

1t is a difficult matter to know
what means we shall use in order to
succeed in certain schemes. Two
men will resort to the same measures
to ensure success in the same enter
Prise; one will achieve good results,
while the efforts Of the other will end
in disaster.
Untiring toll, determination, per.
severance and integrity must in every
case be united, for no unit factor will
achieve the end. there must be a
union of forces to clear away from
our path the numberlCss barriers
that are ever present to thwart our
plans. We cannot believe with the
great French emperor that Prov.
dence is always on the side OF the
heaviest artillery. After our human
energies have done their duty, then
we must look to heaven for the fruit.
age.
Strong resolve is a potent factor,
but this must not degenerate into an
obstinacy that refuses to hear the
voice OF reason and mature judgment,
1t is only to be commended when We
know we are right and are pliable to
reasonable and well regulated rules

God Bless the Babies.

God bless the babies What a world
this would be without them, says some
unknown enthusiast, possessed of big
heart. What souring and curdling up
there would be of the milk of human kind
ness for want of an outlet il there were
no little cherubs to caress and be foolish
over. Often and often when entering
with some misgivings the great hall of
a new place, my heart has leaped up at
sight of tiny, wooden bottee, a very
rainbow of hope, lying on the waxed floor,
while the sight of a wrecked tin train, has
been as welcome as a card of invitation
to a ball is to a young lady.
God bless the baby it is better tonic
than all the bitters ever advertised
The baby has a mission and fultills it;
it has an object in life and accomplishes
it. If ever it becomes necessary to thin
out the population / hope the process
will not begin at the small end of the hu-
man race, for affirm and maintain that
there is not one baby too many in the
whole world.

A Household Art.

The National Druggist gives the fol-
lowing as a good method of transferring
prints to glass: First coat the glass
with damar varnish or Canada balsam
dissolved in an equal volume of turpen-
tine and let it dry till it is very sticky,
which takes half day or more. The
printed paper to be transferred should be
we'll soaked in soft water and carefully
laid upon the prepared glass, after re-
moving the surplus water with blotting
paper pressed upon it so that no air
bubbles or drops of water are seen under
meath. This should dry a whole day
before it is touched; then with wetted
fingers begin to rub off the paper at the
back If this be skillfully done almost
the whole of the paper can be removed,
leaving simply the ink upon the varnish.
When the paper has been removed another
coat of varnish will serve to make the
whole more transparent.

An Unpopular Calling.

Why is it that the business of a book
agent, especially a lady book agent,
should proverbiallyIbe so unpopular? The
calling is honorable enough, and if the
book she is selling is a good book, there
is really no reason why she should not be
honored for her works sake as well as
the man who sells the same book from his
shelves in a book store And yet the
fact remains that she is quite too often
an unwelcome caller at our homes.
Doubtless one cause of her unpOpulari-
ty is due to her persistency. 81 bought
the book to get rid of her; not because |
wanted it, remarked a gentleman friend
the other day; 81 couldn't be rude to
woman. If these lady canvassers would
only have the tact and good sense to
quietly refrain from undue urging, much
of the dislike toward them might be
avoided. Truly they have rather a hard
time at the best. Nobody seems to think
they may be tired, hungry, homesick or
discouraged, and need few sunshiny,
CHEEKY words. We are reminded of
circumstance within our own knowledge
of lady in Western New York who was
canvassing for book. AS she entered a
lawyers office and explained her GRAND,
he drew out revolver from under his
desk and pointed it at her. Said he: 81
keep this for just such as you" For a
moment she stood as if irresolute. Final
ly she said: 81 don't think care; you
may as we'll shoot; I'm nearly dead any
way. Yes, you can shootifyou want to -

A Pancake Machine.

A machine of interest to housewives
has been invented by man in Ilion,
which threatens to revolutionize the
present way Of making pancakes. The
batter is placed in what may be termed
a hopper on top of the small machine,
which is placed on the breakfast table
When cakes are wanted the machine,
which works by a spring, is set in mo-
ton, and the batter passes between two
very highly polished rollers, heated very
hot by a spirit lamp. The cakes are thus
rolled off and cut in the required shape
by sharp knife and thrown upon the
plate which is ready to receive them.
