A Mistake.

1t doesn't pay to make a mistake in
printing Office. An item appeared
in a paper not long since, which
should have read as follows: "Mrs.
II has the largest and incest plants

the "a" dropped out Of the word
plants, and the error was not dis
covered until the paper was prin ted.
The whole town was in an uproar,
and when the lady's husband read
the item, he armed himself with a
revolver and started for the printing
office, bnt the printer saw him COM
ing and escaped through a back

Are We Physically Advancing?

Edward Atkinson has examined the
records Of hundreds of ready made cloth
ing establishments to discover whether
the white man of the United States is
d~eteriorating in size and weight. As the
general result it was found that the ay-
erage height of the New Englander is 3
feet 81 inches and of the southerner s
feet 10 inches. The average weight of
the American of today is between 155
and 100 pounds. Mr.. Atkinson discov-
cred that the average height and weight
of men in this country has ~perceptibly
increased since the wal of 1875, and
that we are slowly increasing rather than
decreasing in size and strength.-S..

take prompt steps to secure the advant-
ages of the reciprocity clause Of the Nc

amounts to 1000, 900 pounds year is at
stake. The sum might dwindle to less
than half if we lose our hold on the

More Indian OutraGes.

BLACKFooT, Idaho, April 15.-Great
excitement was caused this afternoon by
a discovery that Indians had killed two
unknown white emigrants who were
camped at water tank one mile below
this place. Nothing could be learned
as to the cause OF the tragedy. There
were: no eye witnesses. The bodies of
the emigrants were found dead at the
tank, and number of Indians were
sneaking to the hills east of here. An
uprising is feared. Agent Fisher. who
was at Pocatello, was telegraphed and
came up on a special train.
Deputy Sheriff Rose lett Immediately
for the scene, and took charge OF the
bodies, leaving an armed posse on
guard. Business is suspended and the
citizens are up in arms. About 100
armed, mounted men have left the city
to demand the surrender of the guilty
parties. Should the Indians refuse,
trouble is sure to follow, as the posse
are determined men. Not an Indian was
to be found in the city an hour after the
affair. The governor and adjutant gen.
eral have been telegraphed in regard to
the affair.

No New DEVELOPMENTS.

WASHINGTON, April 15.-But two
facts could be added to-day to the pub
lie stock of information respecting the
diplomatic ENHANCEMENT with Italy,
growing out OF the New Orleans TRACE
dy. One of these was that the state de-
partment has not received an intima-
ton from the Italian government that
their last note must be answered before
a given date. Nor is such an intima-
ton expected, for the department feels
that it is acting properly and reasona-
bly, and it would be very unusual
course for nation engaged in diplo-
matte negotiations with another, to
question the motives upon which the
correspondence proceeded. The second
fact is that Secretary Blaine's answer
to the Marquis di Rudini's last note has
not been forwarded. Secretary Blaine
had short talk with the president to-
day, but as the later was very busy in
arranging other important matters be-
fore he leaves Washington, it is not
probable that even this subject in which
he has shown particular interest, could
be discussed with any result.

Hinder Failing Walls.

OMAHA, April 15.-The Paxton hotel,
one OF the leading hostelries Of the city,
was damaged by fire last night to the
extent of $4,000. Four firemen were
hurt by falling wall, as follows:
Captain Carter, ribs crushed and in.
ternally hurt. He died this morning.
Martin Mulvihill, pipeman, both legs
broken, skull crushed and back injured;
will die.
Peter MCGUIRE, legs broken and cut
about the head.
Thomas Downs. cut about the head
and badly bruised on the body.
The defect in the building OF the wall
will be investigated.
Mulvihill had just been married.
Thirteen years ago four members OF
the same hose company were killed al
most on the same spot when the Grand
Central hotel was burned.
A panic prevailed among the people
in the hotel for while, but all got of
without serious accident or loss.
