with him near Silver City some
two weeks ago, died Wednesday
at Benefits hotel in Silver from
injuries received at the the time of

The Fourth at Mason valley.

The Fourth of July celebration
at Hernlebens Grove was a most
enjoyable affair The exercises, of
a somewhat novel character for such
an occasion, were calculated to in
terest the youth and children and
to give to those of both sexes an
equal chance. Misses Annie Becker,
Bertha Pfeifer, Annie Pomin, Win
ME Strosnider, and Lizzie Ross, and
Master Phelps Osborn acclaimed
ringing patriotic selections in way
to inspire all with patriotism and
to please all with the marked abili-
ty displayed. The first prize,
beautiful set of half-bound morroe-.
co peoples Cyclopedia," was
awarded to Miss Bertha Pfeifer. In
the afternoon the little folks had a
pleasing program and each partici-
pant was made happy by the receipt
of story book. The happiness of
the children in their sports was
pleasant to see and the improvised
"merry-go-round" was the cause of
much delight.
Along the line of edibles the sup
ply was marked for the abundance
and variety. The icecream, straw
berry, lunch, lemonade and confec-
ton stands were continuously and
freely patronized, so that, without
soliciting dollar of contribution,
the committee of arrangements were
able to pay all expenses, including
free treat to all children and
portion of the prizes, and still have
considerable balance on hand.
For unalloyed enjoyment, intellec-
tual, moral and financial profit, the
success of the celebration at Hern-
leben's Grove would be hard to beat.

A Dangerous Crisis.

A gentleman who was last winter in
the south relates that upon one occa-
sion he went with some friends to n col
ored service, says the Boston Courier.
AT the close of the sermon contribu-
ton was taken up, and as the plate was
passed to him he dropped into it n silver
half dollar. meaning this to do for the
whole party. The colored deacon who
was passing the plate regarded it an in
slant with n stupeficd air, and then said
in hoarse whisper: Take GU: dat ar
SLIDER" Isn't it cnough?" the gentle
man asked, much amused "Lor' bless.
yer" responded the deacon, 1--WE don't
put SLIDER into this yer plate. Dat
old niger preachcr'd get so pulled up
dat we uns couldn't lib wild him,
noway." The argument was too con-
vincing to be resisted, especially as by
this time the whole congregation was
watching the colloquy between the dea-
con and the stranger, and the gentle
man hastily exchanged handful of
pennies for the silver piece The deacon
passed on smiling. with the air of a
man who had skillfully brought the
church bark past dangerous rapid.

TRAVELS OF A STAR.

French Astronomer Makes Remark
abb" Observations by the Naked Eye.
a communication from NJ Camille
Flammarion, the French astronomer. in
the New York Herald mentions his dis
covcry Mt Juvisy observatory of the
movement Of II star by the naked eve.
This is the first time in the history of
astronomy, he says that the displncc-
mcnt of star has been settled without
instrumental aid.
The star TO which he refers shines be-
meath the brilliant star Cluster" in the
constellation of the Virgo. 1t is num-
bercd siXty-one and is of the fifth mag
nitudc. lIipparchus described it two
thousand years ago as double star. 1t
was then OFFICIALLY double, only not
physically connected with another
star. But it is no longer double even
in appearance. 1t was in the attempt
to ascertain the stellar parallax by the
study of double stars that the elder
lcrschcl found evidence of the great
law that the dominion of gravitation
extends beyond the limits of the solar
system to the most remote regions of
space.
Star aliases constructed by NJ. Flam-
marion and others show that not infre-
qucntiy many stars in the same region
OF the heavens travel in company. or
exhibit, as one says, u 'grcgarious ten
dency." 1t is not often, therefore, that
any change in the relative positions of
stars can be detected. But when the
star is in line of sight observations with
the spcctroscope make it possible to de-
termine its rate of approach or recess
sion. More than twenty years ago Hug
gins found by this means that Arcturus
was approaching us at n speed of sixty
miles n second, while Sirius was increas-
ing his distance by nearly third as
much per second.
Star siXty-one in the constellation of
the Virgo was once near star sixty
three, forming with it, apparently, a
double star. Now it is separated, SAYS
NJ. Flammarion, "by q distance exceed
ing by far that of the full moon, and it
is flying with a rapid course to the
southwest and preparing itself to aban-
don the Virgo, it's arm and it's Cluster
to go and lose itself in the folds of
Hydra, which unveil themselves in the
south"

INDEPENDENCE IN FASHION.
AngIomania Fast Becoming Thing OF
tho pAst I'm Amorica.


AnElomania Fast Becoming q Thing OF
the Past I'm America.
1t may not be exactly an illustration
of that familiarity which breeds con-
tempt, but certainly the more intimate
association recently of the four hundred
with English royalty has to marked
extent diminished that idol worship
which made the American man
of fashion ridiculous as an OBJ
sequious follower of whatever cdict
of masculine apparel the nobility chose
to issue. The Anglomaniaic already a
memory. says the Clothicr and Fur
nishcr. 1t has come to pass that we
have thrown off the yoke of abject imi-
tatlon England's fashion potentates
are not now regarded as infalliblc. Their
ideas may be contemplated with as
much interest us heretofore. but they
are no longer cagerly adopted rs mat
ter OF course. That which is becoming
and feasible, and in harmony with the
spirit OF the times, is accepted, but our
fashionable men reserve to themselves
the right of discrimination and exercise
1t fearlcssly. From patriotic stand
point it is rather refreshing-after sew
eral decades of unmitigatcd thralldom
to be able to say to the British lion:
much obliged to you'll But, really,
we don't care for it,"
The recent refusal to sanction with
the customary prompt enthusiasm sew
eral OF the most radical changes in the
regime that have been made of late
years has had decidedly discomfiting
effect upon our English cousins. Their
confidence of leadership has received
naturally severe shock in conse-
qucncc. From all accounts the London
swell mob is passing through period
OF experimentation. AS result mems
fashions abroad have not been so nm
settled in fifty years. The heavy swclls
continue cropping aimlessly after the
elusive innovation. For their indie
pcndencc at this time therefore Ameri-
cans have cause for sclf-congratulation
the more particularly so on account of
the very divergent character of some of
the foreign Interpretations. Adj
vanced copies of the recent London fads
III coats and topcoats, had they been
tried suddenly ON the New York public,
would have created almost n riot in the
streets. The English swell, be it known,
can dress himself up as his fancy die
tntes, and the ycomanry makes no out
cry Now that we have thrown off the
shacklcs of slavish emulation, and
blithely accept or reject what we want
or what does not appeal to the sense of
the fitness of things, the English FASH
ion trainer will come down from his
oracular emincncc, and in the future
pose with amelioratcd despotism in the
light of guide, philosopher and friend
am aware that the sentiments above
set forth would have been regarded
few years ago as rank heresy, for they
verify the aphorism of Brcr Rabbit that
'the world do move"
