A WONDERFUL FROG STORY.

While a large pine log was being
sawed into lumber at Brown ~ Hall's
sawniill, near Acton, Ontario, after
the outside slab and one board had
been cut off. and while tn. workmcl
were turning over the log preparatory
to "squaring" it, they were surprised
to see 4 large toad poke his head out
Ola hole. where he had barely escaped
being cut up by the saw.
How the creature eve got there Is
a mystery, as he was completely in
cascd in the wood, with no possible
means of c9rcss or ingress. AS the
log was the fourth Of fifth up from the
butt of the tree his position must have
been at Leaf fifty or sixty feet from the
ground. There is but one way of ac-
counting for the fact that he was found
in The position named. lie had grown
up with the tree from infancy, and
was probably hundreds of years old
when the saw awOke him from his
long nap. The animal was quite fat
and nearly AZ large across as a mans
hand, The tree in Which he was
found was perfectly sound, with the
exception of a decayed spot about a
foot in length below the hollow place
in which he was inlbcdded. Courier
This frog story does very well for
away up the country, but down here
we world have taken no notice OF as
small a thing as a frog. Why, a few
weeks ago Mi. j. +. Casey, the man
agcr OF The P~ascagoula River Mil, at
this place, sawed a live Indian out Of
a log. The boy looked TO be about
years old, mad a bow and ar
row in his left hand and a moccasia
ia his right, the other was on his foot.
His youthful appearance is attributed
10 the fact HAT he was about that age
whcn he got into the tree, but as soon
he tree closed around him time had
10 more effect upon him. This would
been mentioned before, but Mr..
says all the wonders of The saw
mill world ought TO be performed by
he Wallace mill in Alabama.

The DIsFRixCHIsED IN THIS COUNTY.

The sheriff has kindly furnished us
with the number OF persons in this
county who will be DISTINGUISHED
from voting on account of Eon-pay-
mcnt of taxes. II has been currently
reported, and generally believed, thai
the negroes had been more prompt in
this matter than the whites, but this
proves to be a mistake. The number
of negroes left out in the cold is 53j
whites about 100. The danger though
is not all over. Those wt.o have not
paid their taxes by tins time will have
10 show that they have paid for 1890
and 1891 in order to vote in 1892.

The Seattle snd Montana 70 Run Rails
Into Ballard.
There IL not . place on Puget sound
that can DO pointed 70 q having twelve steam
yessels in port st one time to undergo repairs
except Ballard. This II claim which cannot be
disputed and yet there were that number OF
steamers on the waters Of salmon bay, In front
OF the city Of Ballard on Saturday.
The largest of the steamers are the W. x. Mef-
win and Eliza Anderson, both Of which are be-
ing thoroughly overhauled- The Eliza Ander-
son was brought to Ballard in order that the
damage sustained ON the rocks at Deception
pass might be repaired. No other city on the
Sound has the reputation for ship building that
Ballard enjoys. Some Of the largest Of the
sound steamers were built there and no doubt
many more viii hail from the same place.
In addition to the notoriety Ballard has OBJ
tanned q ship-buiiding point, she also enjoys
the title of railroad center. Her passenger car
service IL unexcelled In any part of the state.
and viii Be- further improved within the next
few months. II has been stated that the Seattle
& Montana win begin laying rails within six
weeks, In which event Ballard will have .
through line to the Atlantic scaboard The
products of the mills and factories win be
shipped East by rail and, as soon as the city
dock is completed, by water in all directions.
The location of the Seattle 4 Montana depot
10 still mystery, but it ID generally believed
that it viii be placed somewhere around the
footof Broadway. As the electric car line is to
be extended along Broadway. it Is more than
likely that there IL where the depot will be
established.
The work Of double tracking the West street
road, which was begun few weeks ago and
then abandoned, was resumed yesterday and
will be pushed through as fast as possible. The
intention of the company is to complete the
work before the heavy summer travel sets In.
The new cars will be put on the line just -
soon as the track work is done. This will give
the citizens Of Ballard q very rapid service to
Fremont line will be pushed as rapidly ~ the
weather win permit.

Lieutenant Finley's storm warning received
from the signal service ON the night of April 8,
was verified by heavy southeast gale, blowing
on the 4th and 5th with unusual force.
The schooner Laura May, lumber laden, which
sailed from Port Townsend April 5, was obliged
to put back from the capo and seek refuge in
Port Townsend bay. The barks Arkwright and
Woolahia, lumber laden and bound for Aus
tralia, remained snugly moored waiting for the
gale to subside. Captain Keller, of the former
vessel, when asked by reporter of the Posi- IN
rELLyGENCER why he did not proceed on the
voyage, said good harbor was good enough for
him as long az Finley had his yellow flag flying
