The opening of the coffin of pretty little Ethel Futile, who died in Chicago of diph- theria, and was taken to Zanesville, Ono, for burial, has already caused sixteen deaths at the latter place, and it is proba- ble that many more will be added to the list. Friends crowded about the coffin and whispered words of sympathy to the bereaved parents. The body was uncov- cred for a final look, the parents not know ing that the little one had died of an in- fectious disease, and the malady became epidemic.

 A working woman said she would walk ten miles to get the Ball corset, if she couldn't get it without. She had had experience witff Ii 1t.
 That corset is just as easy the minute you put it on as it is when half worn out.
 You can go>to your store. and get it and wear it two or three weeks, and then you will know what comfort is iii a corset. If you are disap- pointed in it in any way, go back to the store and get your money within three weeks or so-you'll get if. The maker pays the merchant to do that. There's a primer on Cor sets for you at the store.

]. '.Yes, I like it better in the senate than in the house." said Senator Dixon, of Rhode Island. the other day. Existence is more restful here, as one might say. In the house there is continual scrimmage, and the individual representative is fairly lost in the crowd. Here it is like small and very select club, where every one knows everybody else, and all are on a footing, the friendlness of which is inde- pendent of party differences. A member of the house, as rule, is acquainted, with only few of his colleagues, comparatively speaking. .''-Ney York Tribune.

Last Monday afternoon Andy Walmsly's
horse, attached to a cart owned by A. J.
Newman, came dashing down Main street at
. breakneck rate, scattering people who
were on the street in all directions. The
animal tried TO make the turn onto Pike
street, but he was going so fast thar he failed
to get around, and instead was brought up
standing against the stone wall Of Kean's
store, nearly running into Kean's team of
mules that was hitched beside the store at
the time. The horse sturted to run in Gold
Canyon. about mile above town. The two
Paramore boys were in the cart coming down
from Silver City behind one Of Walmsly's
large teams. and the horse trying to pass the
team struck one Of the cart wheels against a
rock and threw the boys out. Strange to say
the animal did not receive bruise and the
cart was but slightly damaged. The boys
we're not hurt in the least, and altogether it
was lucky runaway.
