Mr.. Voorhees,.

Mr.. Daniel Voorhees,, of Indiana, open
ed what should be a memorable Tariff
debate in the Senate on July 81 with a
speech which in all its moral attitudes,
rhetorical embellishments and mental
furniture belonged to the Dark Ages.
Mr.. VOORHEES, is, of course, picture
maker and not man of thought. He
lives in the age of Dante and Corregio
and not in that of Bessemer and Edison.
His mental vision is full of angels and
devils as if he were an Italian painter of
the tenth century at work upon vision
of the last judgment, with the difference
that in Mr.. Voorhees, pictures whoever
becomes an employer of several thousand
workmen is a devil, and every Indiana
farmer whose vote he can cajole by his
word pictures is an angel. 1t seems
marvellous that theology SO simple as
this could furnish the machinery for a
prose-epic, in which the employers OF
two-thirds of the wage workers Of the
country are classed as tiends, and the
producers OF two-t thirds OF their food are
pictured as victims on the end of toast

A SMART TERRIER.

She II Bitten by Rattlesnaks and Cures
Herself.
Among the valuable dogs owned by ].
F. Coope, OF Ben Lomond vineyard, is
family of thoroughbred wire-haired ter
riers, says the Santa Cruz Surf. These
little creatures are very bright, and
among other achievements are quite ex-
pert at snake-killing. That they have
an intuitive knowledge not only how to
kill snakes, but how to heal themselves
II snake gets the better of an en-
counter, was proved not long since by an
incident noticed by some Of the en-
ployes.
The mother terrier having discovered
a rattlesnake ready coiled for spring,
placed herself at safe distance and be-
gan barking loudly for an assistant
One of her family Of terriers responded
to the call, when the two dogs placed
themselves one on either side of the rat
tier, barking at it and slowly approach
ing it from opposite directions until
within about striking distance for the
serpent. The exasperated rattler at last
sprang at the younger dog, when the
mother in great fury pounced upon the
snake. The terriers seize the serpents
about midway Of the body and shake
them without mercy until life is ex-
tinct.
In this case the mother terrier at
tempted the usual mode of procedure,
and was fairly successful, but the fangs
of the snake in some way struck her, in
dicting a wound. 1t was evident to
those watching her that her sufferings
began at once, but she did not lose her
head with fear. She made for bunch
OF snake weed not far of and ate freely
Of 1t. Her next move was to pool Of
water that made small muddy spot.
Into this she plunged, rolling herself
about in every direction and covering
herself with mud. The on-lookers gave
her up for lost, but the canine physician
had healed herself, and the next morn
ing was entirely all right, as If she had
never met his rattlesnakeship in deadly
combat .H..

wanderinrs Of . Needle.

Fergus Mccarthy, Of Philadelphia, was
the subject Of a peculiar operation at the
Presbyterian Hospital. A needle which
protruded from his abdomen was re-
moved by DR.. w. B. Gilliard. The nee
die was much .corroded and blackened.
Mccarthy said he could not explain how
the needle got there, but remembered
that about twenty years ago he tread
upon a needle which troubled him
slightly. 1t was never discovered. Nc
Carthy says he did not experience much
pain at the time, but since then he has
suffered extreme pains less or more all
around the left leg, which gradually
moved upward. The pain shifted to his
side, and he has latterly experienced the
singing pain in tho region of the abb
domen. While at work at the foundry
he was doing some work which necessi-
tated his STOPPING considerably. He
felt keen pain as II something was pene-
trating his flesh like needle, and
had to get up, and, on examination, he
discovered the blackened point Of the
needle. The case is one OF, the most Pc
culiar that has come under treatment at
the hospital for many years.

A REMARKABLE WOMAN.

Although q Centensrisn She still MANI
ages Large Business Interests.
AManchester Union man in the course
Of his travels picked up "reminiscences
of ye olden time in the form of a partial
history of lady born and bred upon the
rugged hillsides of the old Granite State,
who, although rounding out the last
year Of a century since she first saw the
light, is noted in the section where she
now resides as person Of rare business
ability and sagacity.
Deborah Ball Powers first saw the
light Of day in that portion Of the town
OF Hebron known as Tenny Hill, in the
year 1790. The neighborhood where she
was born was prosperous farming COM
munity in her early days, peopled mostly
by families by the names of Crosby and
Ball, and the late DR.. Ordway, one of
the founders of the well-known lumber
firm OF Brown Lumber Company at
Whitefield, was raised in that imme-
diate vicinity. But the glory of Tenny
Hill has long since departed, and not q
single resident now claims it as home,
although in later years Mrs. Powers has
purchased the old homestead and will
retain 1t as long as she lives.
Years ago Mr.. Powers, together with
his family, moved to Lansingburg, N.
Y, and engaged in the manufacture Of
oil cloth carpeting, that industry then
being in its infancy, and he was one of
the first to engage in the business. Just
after getting under way the entire plant
was swept away by fire, placing the FAM
lily in straitened circumstances, which
were further intensified by the loss of
the husband and father, who was burned
able executive ability Of Mrs. Powers
came into full play.
Rising equal to the occasion, in COM
pany with her two sons, she rebuilt the
works, and resumed the business of
making the oil cloth carpeting, and the
same is carried on to this day under the
firm name of d. Powers & Sons.
The products of their manufactory
have wide reputation for excellence, a
fact due to the personal supervision of
this energetic lady. She is received as
one of the leading citizens of Lansing
burg, and is always foremost in both
public and private enterprises. She, at
the present timo, holds tho position of
president of one Of the largest banking
institutions in Lansingburg, and, to-
gether with her two sons, owns con-
trolling interest in the street railway.
She was the founder Of the Old
Ladies' Home in Lansingburg, where
she maintains ten inmates at her own
expense.
While engaged in these works of ch ar.
ity in her adopted State, she never for.
gets the home of her nativity, to which
her last visit was made when she was
ninety-four years old. At her own ex.
pense she built fence around the
Hebron Cemetery, and placed fund Of
$1,000, the income Of which is to be
used for the purpose of keeping the
cemetery grounds in shape. She still
retains her mental faculties to re-
markable degree.

CAPTAIN OF CANNES.

A Dog That Would Seem to BE Entitled
to citizenship.
Andreas Archulets lives on Los Pinos
creek, some twenty miles west of Cone
jos, Col. He owns $50 goats and four
dogs, and, like many other Mexicans, he
is lazy. Yet he is counted as wealthy
among his people, and he certainly
possesses skill, which he has used to
promote his laziness. His dogs are of
the mongrel type, but their education
has made them very valuable, and An
dreas would swear in mixed Castilian
and English If any thing serious oc-
CURED to them.
Quedao, which means Lookout" in
American vernacular, is captain of the
dogs, and Quedao is also dog. He di-
rects the other three who act ss his
Heutenants. Every morning Andreas
turns his $50 goats loose from his cor
raj, and Quedao and his assistants drive
them to pasture. Should the grass
prove too short for them in one place,
according to Quedao's Judgment, he
seeks another spot, and with his help
ers drives the goats thither. If any
show disposition to straggle, the dogs
nip their hind legs and thus hasten
them along. If Quedao halts $50
goats and three dogs halt also, until he
gives the command to move on. While
the herd is feeding, two dogs will re-
main to watch it while the other two
will 60 hunting for provisions for the
quartette. Their game, be it jack
rabbit, cottontan or other animal, is al
ways brought in whole, and at noontide
the four four-legged goat herders have
their own picnic. AS the sun sinks in
the west behind the mountains the dogs
gather the goats and drive them back to
the corral, and they have done this work
for Andreas day after day without losing
goat.
1t is alleged by Mexicans in that part
of the Sunny San Luis Park that when
election day comes Andreas gives his
dogs a rest from their duties as herders
and goes with them to Guadalupe, the
little plaza where he votes. Quedao and
his three companions present them
selves at the polling place, each with a
ballot In his mouth, and see to it that
the little slips go into the ballot-box.
They are all registered, and certainly
they have as much if not more intelli-
gence than many Mexicans. Colorado
is said to be State of surprises to those
who are not familiar with it, and this Is
no doubt true. sl
