FIVE CENTS.
A Romantic story from Austria.


It is believed that influenza is answer
able for both deaths-those of the Arch
duke Henry and his beloved consort-
which, as announced, are the subject Of
widespread grief in Vienna. The arch
duke knew nothing Of the death of his
wife. The archduke's only child, Bar
oness Roineria of Waldeck. who had
been deprived of both parents in such q
tragic manner, says that they had pre-
sentiment of their fate. The baroness
grief is heartrending. She is being con-
soled by the Duchess of Alencon, sister
Of the Empress Elizabeth.
The tragedy is intensified by the ro-
mantle history Of the union of the arch
duke and the opera singer by the sacri-
fees the archduke had to make and by
the exemplary happiness of the pair dur
ing the twenty-three years of their mar
ried life. They were idolized through
out the Tyrol, and in Vienna the tall,
strong figure of the archdul1e, with his
long white beard and blue eyes, was a
familiar object. He made the acquaint-
ance at Graz of the prima donna of the
theater in that town in the drawing
rooms of the Styrian nobility. He pri-
vately engaged himself to her just be-
fore he had to leave for Italy to fight for
his country, and the girl in his absence
was offered bribes to release him, but
resolutely refused.
At last the pair were married in the
private chapel of the archduke's palace
at Bozen. Large black flags fioated
from the four corners Of the Vienna
Rathhaus as mark of sympathy. Both
bodies lay in state in the archduke's pri-
vate chapel till Wednesday night. They
were then conveyed to Bozen for inter-
ment in one grave beneath the chapel in
the archducal palace, according to the
wishes of the archduke. The Vienna
papers express unanimous regret at the
sad occurrence.-Pal Mall Gazette.

They neoeixe Their Parents.

There arc some secrets of the football
field that if known to the papas and
mammas of the boys who play the game
would cause CONSERVATION. "It is SO
dangerous" say these affectionate par
ents, and they tell their Willie or John
or James that he must not think of be-
ing a candidate for the eleven. But it
sometimes happens that the aforesaid
son is not as obedient as he might be,
and under the disguise of a name not
his own-Snith or Jones or Brownie
plays ''for all he's worth" for gore and
glory. The printed roll of college
team hailing from point not far from
Philadelphia contained last fall not less
than four bogus names. They were :.
blind to the parental eye and proved
most effective. Philadelphia Record.

Hydrophobia from a SNOWFALL.

A strange case has come to light near
Cairo, Pa. Howard Davis, aged eight
years, has for some time past exhibited
signs of hydrophobia. He has been In
bed at the home Of Mr.. and Mrs. George
Smith, who had taken him from the
Fairmont home, and was barking and
swapping like dog. At times it was all
those present could do to keep the boy
in bed. The boy had been bitten in the
hand by dog in 1885, while he was in
the family of Ezra Moore.
The present trouble is not thought to
be hydrophobia by the attending physi-
clan. He says it undoubtedly resulted
from q SNOWFALL, which hit the boy a
hard blow above the heart. The marks
Of the blow were visible. The little fell
low is resting easy at present. Cairo

Hunting with Trained Bald Eagles.

An Indian boy belonging to the Sioux
tribe has a pair of pets which are not
only strange and interesting, but are
useful as well. These are two large bald
eagles.
The young Indians are fond of hunt
ing, but are not allowed to own or carry
guns, and the result is that they are
compelled to use the bow and arrow,
which they use with great expertness.
The boy shot an old eagle and wounded
it. 1t flew to its nest, and he followed
until he saw where the home Of the bird
was He then killed the wounded bird
and waited until its mate appeared and
also killed it.
Climbing to the nest he found two
young ones, which he took home with
him and began course of training
which has resulted in his having the
birds so fully under control that they
come and go at his command. He takes
them out, and when he sights any quar-
ry he turns his eagles loose, after fasten-
ing their bealxs so that they cannot eat
the animal, and the birds Immediately
give chase and bring down the prey.
The eagles are now about year and a
half old, andare large and strong enough
to bring down fawn.
The boy is the most successful hunter
of the tribe, and never goes out without
bringing home some game, from a rab-
bit to deer. The officers at this place
want the eagles, and have offered the
boy what probably appeared to him to
be fabulous sums for them, but hc stead
lily refuses all oGers.-Cor. Boston Globe.

A Remarkable Funeral.

James Johnston, the man whose back
was broken last summer by being thrown
from hand car on the Beech Creek rail-
road, died on Saturday at his home, near
Kyler's mill. Johnston was buried by
the township overseers of the poor. The
circumstances attending the burial are
noteworthy on account of the difficulties
attending it. Johnston's house is on the
right hand of Moshannon creek, in a
wild, lonely spot, remote from other
houses and almost inaccessible.
The only approach to tits by a narrow,
rickety foot bridge which spans the
creek, which on Saturday was swollen
by the recent rains to raging torrent
The coffin had to be carried across the
bridge, and the task, after several at
tempts, was accomplished by making a
harness of straps fastened to each end of
the coffin and buckled around the shoul-
ders of two men, who by clinging to the
single handrail succeeded in getting
across, although the frail bridge swayed
and sank with their weight until the
swift current splashed over it.
After the body was placed in the cof-
fin the men started back. They found
that with the additional weight of the
corpse the bridge would not bear them,
and, after several Intellectual attempts
to carry it over, they finally got it over
by rigging harness to the stoutest man,
who then dragged it over with much
difficulty and peril.
There was no minister present, no
mourners and no funeral services were
held over the poor fellows body.-Phila-
delphia Letter

The Cave Craze.

Half a dozen of our lads have lately
had the cave craze. They have been
reading dime literature and became the
slaves of an intense desire to become
robbers and live in caves. One day a
few weeks since they took shovels, picks
and hoes and went into piece of woods
near the city, and without even think
ing whose the property might be, began
to dig cave. A hole four feet square
and seven feet deep was dug. At the
bottom the hole was widened to nearly
eight feet Over this was placed old
planks and brush and leaves, so that the
"cave" was completely hidden. Here
they crawled into their "wild abode
and imagined all sorts of terrible things
of themselves.
About week ago the owner of the
woods happened to be going by the spot
and noticed smoke rising from the
ground. He poked around in the leaves
and discovered the boys smoking ciga-
rettes. "What are you doing down
there? he called. eve are robbers and
we'll cut your throat" said one youthful
voice. mo we amt either" said another
rather frightened boy; "we're only boys
and we won't hurt you. This is our
cave"
The owner of the land made the boys
get up out of the pit, and while they
were crawling up cut brace of birches.
But when six lads in knee pants stood
before him he relented and punished
them by making them Immediately take
shovels and fill up the hole, into which
some of his cattle might have fallen and
broken their necks.-Lewiston Journal.

A Vicious Hawk.


An Auburn business man and friend
were out hunting the other day. A big
hawk flew over their heads and they
blazed away at him. The shot broke
the birds wing and he came to the
ground, alighting on his back. He was
unable to turn over and get upon his
feet, but was lively just the same, as the
Auburn hunters found before they sue
ceeded in killing him.
The business man placed the ramrod
of his gun in the hawks big, grasping
claws, all of which straightaway closed,
like the jaws of an enraged mud turtle
swapping at stick in the hands of mis-
chievous boy. With, the claws thus
taken care of the business mans friend
proceeded to wiring the birds neck. In
the earlier stages of the operation the
harder the friend worked the tighter
would the hawk grasp the iron ranrod
and flap it's wings.
All this was fun for the hunters, who
after long struggle declared them.
selves winners of the scrap. They had
hardly so proclaimed when the bird goi
his wind, and leaving the ramrod vi
ciously attacked his prosecutors.
AS f1te would have it, the business
mans friend, being nearest, was the first
to catch it, The hawk lighted on his
wrist, and the way he stuck there was a
caution. One claw sunk deep into the
hunters wrist, and he called loud and
long for mercy.
The business man, seeing that some
thing must be done at the risk of his
life, finally went to his friends rescue.
He got a good hold on the sunken claw,
braced his feet against rock, and was
successful in pulling it out AS the
claw came out, the hawk fell back and
in moment was still in death. They
found that the birds wings measured
three feet and ten inches from tip to tip.

Natsu Mikan. The first in the list is by
all odds the best. Its fruit is very
small, fiat at the ends and practically
seedless, this being its greatest pecu-
liarity. 1t is stated that out of 200
selected at random only two were found
to contain seeds.
The Klnkan, also called the Cumquot,
or golden orange, is divided into two
varieties-the marumi, or round fruit,
and the nagami, or long fruit. Either
of these is eaten raw, rind and all, but
the majority of the crop is used in maxi
ing preserves, or is crystailized.
In Japan the propagation of the
orange is somewhat different from that
pursued in this country. There are
groves, as here, but the trees are planted
in irregular patches. and many of them
placed in terraces on the hillsides. Then
again the planters allow vegetables to
grow between the trees, and very often
they are planted so close together that
the branches interiock each other. AS
in the case OF many other varieties of
trees in that part OF the world, the
orange trees are not trained to grow
upright, but on the contrary are crooked
and dwarfed. There are other reasons
for this, one being that the Japanese
prefer the low trees because the fruit
can be more easily picked without the
aid of ladders, and another that the low
branches keep the ground cool and
moist, which would not be the case
if they were trained and staked up to
straighten them. The young trees are
irrigated only in the dry seasons, the
water being distributed by means of
buckets, as is also the liquid fertilizer,
which is placed about the roots with
hand dippers.
As early as the 1st of October the
green and sour fruit is picked, and the
whole crop is gathered and packed by
December. These oranges are then
stored away and kept in such good con-
dition as to be found in the market as
late as the end of May. A large number
of them are shipped to San Francisco,
but in the majority of instances, be-
cause of being packed in extremely
light boxes, they reach that port in
very poor condition, and afford
Americans but little opportunity of
Judging of their true flavor.-[ Detroit

TOMATO SHIPMENTS.
G. E. Needham of Glendora has been
shipping tomatoes to Chicago the past
two or three weeks. Last week he
shipped forty crates of twenty pounds
each. They are packed in boxes hold
ing five pounds each. and sell to the

crates, and may get off as many more.
They net him cents pound on the

tables for the Chicagoans, as they will
probably retail at about 25 cents a

in the course of railroad construction in
this country was recently excavated on

Colonel Lamar. The giant bowlder was
l20 feet in height and measured 1000
cubic meters. Six dynamite cartridges
were placed under the rock after tha

"This view OF the subject renders it
unnecessary to inquire into the effect of
the act of 1865, withdrawing the consent
of the state of Virginia, or the act of
congress of 1865, giving consent after the
attempt of the state to withdraw hers.
The demurrer to the bill is, therefore,
sustained, and the bill must be dis
missed"
1t might be we'll to remark here that
the same natural causes worked toward
the separation of West Virginia from
Virginia as are at work to the same end
between South California and North
California. West Virginia is separated
from Virginia by a high range of noun
tains-the Alleghanies. There never
was any political affinity between
the people west Of these noun
tains and the "tidewater" part OF
the state east of the mountains. The
