Looking Ahead.

A curious instrument of writing exists
in Dunkirls, Ind. 1t appears that two
early lovers failed, for some reason I'M
explained, to marry, but married 9TH
crs. Lately written agreement has
been signed up, in absolute secrecy,
providing for their future marriage to
each other in the event they survive their
present companions. This contract fur
Their provides Gquidatcd damage Of
five thousand dollars upon failure of
contract, as provided. They set forth
in their contract that, owing to respect
for children, etc, no divorce shall be
asked for, but that they shall trust in
Providence to remove present unwcl-
como staycrS.

a cool headed engineer prevented a
disastrous collision near West Point,
Miss, the other day. The telegraph op-
orator neglected to hold freight train
as directed, and it was pulling out Of
the station when passenger train was
discovered rounding curve at the rate
OF fifty miles an hour. The engineer of
the freight jumped, making no effort to
stop his engine. The engineer of the
passenger train, however, brought his
train to an abrupt standstill. Leaping
from the cab he jumped on the freight
engine and stopped tho train just two
feet from his own,

John Addison Not Killed Charges
Against IL Prominent Attorney.
BRsToL, Tenn, July Al Special
John Addison, train hand on the Nor
folk and Western railroad was attempt
ing to cross the track yesterday after
noon when train No. IL dashed up and
cut off his right foot. When picked up
the young man was to all appearances
dead, and your correspondent so tele-
graphed, but on the arrival OF the two
medical men, Doctors Hicks and Baton,
they pronounced him to be not so Sc
riously injured as to despair of saving
his life. Accordingly he was taken to
his boarding house, where his right leg,
about one inch above the ankle, was
amputated. The doctors think he will
recover, although he is dreadfully in
jured. Addison had a Dealing in his
head, which rendered him almost totally
deaf, which is the reason assigned for
his meeting with SO terrible mishap.

Hints to Those Who Wish to Acquire tho
Lntcst Mode of Salutation.

Hints to Those Who Wish to Acquire tho
Lntcst Mode of Salutation.
If young gentleman feels that it is
his imperative duty to be thoroughly
conversant with all the latest kinks,
fads and wrinkles of modern society,
says the Cleveland Leader, he must at
once learn the "Deau Drurlmcll' style
of tipping the hat. This is an acquired
art, as q relish for olives is an acquired
taste to most people. The best way to
become familiar with the new style is
to stand in front of mirror and prac-
tice steadily for week or two. At the
end Of that tiIne it is barely possible
that the pupil will know his lesson
well. The rules for the new style, as
laid down by one of Clevcland's bright
est young society men are as follows:
Never undertake to tip your hat I'M
less the left foot is we'll in front of tho
right. That brings your body in a
graceful position and will commend
you at once to the favorable obscrva-
ton of any young lady who has lsnowl-
edge of tho principles of the Delsarte
system.
Bring the right hand, if the lady is
on your left side, in graceful curve
to the brim of the hat BE sure that
your hand describes curve, otherwise
the motion will be similar to half q
dozen others associated with matters
of the head. For instance, an abrupt
angular motion might dcludc the young
woman into believing that you intended
to pluck cinder from your eye
Grasp the hat lightly by the brim, be-
ing sure that tho little finger of the
hand thus employed sticks up at what
might be termed IN aristocratic angle.
Gently remove the hat and bring it
forward at Il height of two inches above
your head until an imaginary line des-
cribing the angle with your body would
terminate at the third vest button.
Smile with aristocratic grace.
Incline your head slightly as the ia
vored one passes and move the lips a
trif!e as though extending greeting,
being careful, however, not to appear
audibly until the young lady has first
addressed you.
This may look like an easy trick, but
it is really something very hard to mas
ter and perform with excellence; so
those say that have attempted it. Of
Oho lHiiiB, HOWeVcr, Cnc young men
may be assured. That is, that very
much of their standing in "dudcdora"
depends upon being able to do the
''Beau Brummell" tip. There are a
number of young gentlemen who prom
cnnde up and down every afternoon in
the Arcade, practicing the new thing
before the show windows, and obscrv-
ing their reflections in the glass.

The Harvesting of Grafn-The Rainfall
Slightly Deficient.
LYNCHBURa, July A.. Special Tho
United States sigma service office issued
this evening the following weather crop
bulletin for tho week ending Friday:
The following summary has been con-
densed from the reports of voluntary
correspondents for the week ending
July 3, 1891:
The general conditions which have
prevailed during the week have been
very favorable. The rainfall has been
Slightly deficient, which has allowed
OF harvesting grains in good conditions.
The cutting Of wheat has progressed
very rapidly during the past seven days,
are every Indications that this crop will
yield better than for years; harvesting
of other grains has also been pushed
with good results.
The temperature and sunshine have
averaged normal. These factors have
caused the corn crop TO make good
growth; while this crop is still late
there does not now appear any necessity
for apprehension of its not yielding we'll;
the season has been very favorable for
this grain and it bids fair to mako up in
the rapidity of its growth what it lost
through lato planting.
Tobacco, fruits and vegetables are
very promising. In general, as the sea-
son advances the prospects for good
crops become more prom ising.

The Norfolk and Western Believed To Re
Its Purchaser.
From the New York World.
The organization of the Cincinnati
and Eastern road, running from Cincin-
natl to Portsmouth, @. ard to tie known
in tho future as the Cincinnati, Ports
mouth and Virginia road, is supposed
TO be what VIII, in short time, develop
into bona fidc Norfolk and Western
organization. 1t is wcll-known fact
that the Norfolk AMI Western is over
anxious to secure an entrance into
Cincinnati, and to do this without
building a new line the Cincinnati.
Portsmouth and Virginia will supply
the long-felt want. The Chesapeake
and Ohio has offered to the Norfolk and
western the use of its tracks from Ash
land, Ky, into Cincinnati. which has
been declined
The Norfolk and Western having ac.
CURED tho Scioto Valley road the neces-
sity of bridging the Ohio river has be.
como imperative. Consequently. after
having done this, an independent line
into Cincinnati will be more beneficial
than the joint use of the Chesapeake
and Ohio. The latter road RECOGNIZES
that the competition which will follow
tho Norfolk and Westerns entrance into
Cincinnati will be very great. There
was method i'll President Ingalls, promo
sition to allow equal facilities over the
chesapeake and Ohio, and thereby on
able it 10 keep better guard over IL @
new lines volume and method Of secur-
ing traffic. When the Norfolk and YES
tern completes its bridge then it will be
secn that the Cincinnati, Portsmouth
and Virginia road will be woven into
the main system.
