was the greatest novelist that ever

superstitions of Brave People.

If one will take the trouble to go
through the names of most of the
bravest people in history, he will find
that they nearly all suffered from some
superstition or other. Napoleon Bona
parte was simply eaten by supersti-
tions, and so was the duke of MARI
borough. Literary men have always
been VIGOROUSLY superstitious, from
the days of DR.. johnson, who would go
back half mile if he remembered that
he had omitted to touch any one of
the lampposts on his daily walk, to
Dean Swift, who would never change
garment if he found that he had
put it on inside out, and Lord Byron,
who would get up and leave a dinner
party instantly if anybody split the
salt. Statesmen have not been ex-
empt from superstitions either. Lord
Beaconsfeld would always take espe
cial care to enter the house with his
right foot foremost when he was going
to make big speech. Mr.. Parnel had
a strong prejudice against sitting in
room with three candles. William Pitt
would return home at once, however
important his business, if he met a
cross-eyed man in the street, while Sir
Robert Peel would always make the
sign against the evil eye with his fin
gers and thumb under similar circum-
stances.

1t is scarcely possible that any young
couple we're ever united In matrimony in this
city who were held in higher esteem and had
more earnest woll wishers for their future
welfare, and none have proved themselves
more worthy. The ceremony was witnessed
by goodly number of relatives and intimate
friends and they exhibited their appreciation
of the worth of the young couple by their
presentation of numerous useful and valuable
gifts After few hours spent Ia feasting and
sociality, Mr.. and Mrs. Dunn departed for
their cosy farm home about three miles east.

Snow, the Blockading Snow.

AT different times during the
present winter trains running into
this city have been delayed few
hours by snow storms, but not
until last Monday was there a
failure to make connection. That
mornings blizzard caused too much
trouble to be overcome in a few
hours. Ii was not until Tuesday
afternoon about o'clock that the
first mail and passenger train FOR
the week, reached here, and during
those two days about thirteen
engines and their crews were at
work fighting snow blockades be-
tween this city and Janesville, and
most of them, we are informed, got
stalled or frozen up. Some few
citizens, and we are glad to say
they were very few, exhibited i'm.
patience over the non-arrival of the
mails. On the whole we at home
had much greater reason for feeling
good natured than did the hard
worked and exposed railroad en-
ployes. Their experience was such
as the majority do not care for. The
last few weeks have been awful
hard aud trying on railroad officials
