A Barrel Crank's Invention.

1t is I'll very well to laugh at man
who does foolish thing as crank, SAYS
Alfred Tumble in the New York Daily
News, but there is crank now making
show of himself in the dime museums
of this country who has an idea that will,
with certain notifications, be found Of
value some day, am sure. This is Car
Isle d. Graham, the Buffalo cooper, who
navigated Niagara in cask, or says he
did. Graham, may premise, is man
who, in spite of a defective education,
possesses decided intelligence, and is far
superior in character and station to others
who claim to have outrivaled his fool
hardy and useless feats. He has invented
species of barrel-shaped lifeboat in
which l can, as an old boat sailor, dis
cover many merits. 1t is constructed
upon sound scientific plan, and is we'll
worthy of much more consideration than
it at present gets, or perhaps ever will.
should advise persons interested in
maritime matters to hunt Graham up,
and give his neat and comprehensive lit
tie model some serious attention.
Stranger things have happened than that
such an idea should come to something,
and the problem of life saving at sea is
too far from being yet satisfactorily
solved to permit of any chance of solving
it being neglected.

Spanking His Majesty.

There is, or was, an old Irishman at
Lisbon, who was royal coachman
when the late King of Portugal was a
child. One day the little Prince WIS
caught by the goodman up to some
mischief in the Royal stables. Without
any regard for the princely dignity,
Pat laid the Heir Of the House Of Bra
ganza across his knee, and spanked him
soundly, despite his howls for mercy.
The future King bore him no malice,
however, and Pat was subsequently
pensioned, aud lived on terms Of
friendly familiarity with Dom Luis and
his family after his whilom victim ascen-
ded the throne.

was that only two of them developed in

Rapid Swimming Fish.

1t is understood that for short dis
tances the salmon is the swiftest of fishes.
1t has been estimated that its speed, at
high pressure, or under chase, is from
twenty to twenty-five miles an hour. For
long distances the shark is believed to be
the most rapid swimmer. Goldsmith,
referring to it in his Natural History, !"
says: "He outstrips the swiftest ships (in
those days., plays round them, darts out
before them, returns, seems to gaze at the
passengers, and all this while does not
seem to exhibit the smallest effort to pro-
ceed." 1t is calculated that sharks are
capable of keeping up speed of from
seventeen to twenty miles an hour. The
whale, when hard pressed, can make
about fifteen miles an hour, though its
usual speed seldom exceeds five.

THE CATTLE LOSSES.
Their Extent just Beginning to
he Realized.

Il. B. Hickey, who recently re-
turned from a two months trip
through the Eastern part of the
State, has this to say of the situa-
alton:
"Stockmen are just beginning
to realize the extent Of their losses.
Parkinson, of the Land & Cattle
Company, hit the estimate nearer
than anyone. He figured the losses
at 95 per cent and they certainly
reach that. I have been riding
ever since June 18th over our
ranges and we have lost at least
thirty thousand head of cattle.
In Humboldt county in one of the
ravines, / saw heaps Of cattle for
three miles. They were piled up
as many as three or four hundred
in bunch. A herd which had
sought shelter from the storm,
was covered up with snow and
died; another herd went in on top
and suffered the same fate. And
50 they kept piling on top of each
other and dying as the snow
dlifted over them. They were
piled thirty feet high. 1t was like
the French cavalry that went into
the sunken road at Waterloo.
cit makes ones heart sink to
think of the sufferin gs of those
poor beasts. They must have
trampled each other under foot.
Think of a writhing mass of dying
cattle PROSTATE in the ravine and
another drove of a hundred strong
stampeding right in on top
Of them, and the storm burying
! them all in a common grave.
There must have been terrible
struggles for the bones of many
of them were broken. The sun
has dried out the top ones but the
effuvia from those underneath is
sickening.
Everywhere you go you find
the same state OF affairs and no
one has escaped except those who
had stock in the western and
southern part of the state. 1 have
been purchasing all the cattle I
could pick up in the South and
West and have taken about thirty
thou and head. I am buying all
1 can to restock the rarges. I
do not anticipate another such a
winter for years."
