A sELF-ACTING sofa, just large enough
for two, has been invented. If properly
wound up, it will begin to ring warning
bell just before 10 o'clock. AT one
minute after 10 it splits apart, and while
one half carries the daughter of the
house upstairs, the other half kicks the
young man out of doors. They will
come high, but people must have them.

Colonel, that is all. Isn't il enough" :"
Colonel Lamont omitted Just one thing
He should have stated that Mr.. Cleve-
land will not forget the men who were
against him and are against him now.
He has not forgotten David B. Hill OF
Ed. Murphy, Jr., and is not likely to do
SO. We are inclined to believe that
Daniels interview was inspired by the
President elect and that it was intended
as a notice to Tammany that the tiger
will get none of the spoils unless Croker
and the braves withdraw their support
from Murphy. The announcement that
all who were in favor of him are to be
remembered seems to mean a virtual
cutting off of al who were on the other
side, but we think it means only those
who continue on the other side. Mr..
Cleveland can forgive. Look at Cock
ran, for instance. He signed the Muir
ply manifesto at Chicago, and made a
strong speech against Grover; yet he
has been granted absolution, and offered
a reward for repentance in the shape of
Senatorship. Mr.. Cleyeland's prOnun-
ciamento issued through Colonel La

and we would not be surprised to see a
general scramble among the Tammany
braves away from the Hill camp and

A party of dozen jolly young men

A party Of dozen jolly young men
entered Blue g. Heddens' restaurant
last Thursday evening and seating
themselves in the dining hall, proceed
ed to order such dishes as pleased
their fancy. 1t transpired that they
were eating at the expense of Jere
Hess who had been married earlier in
the evening, and the supper was the
sequel to a serenade that was given
Mr.. Hess and his bride by this merry
crew. The music furnished by them,
however, was of the kind known as
Calathumpian, and was produced on
tin pans, dry goods boxes and similar
instruments. Jere Of course was high
ly delighted with it, but it is not known
whether he sent the boys to the White
House in order to show his apprecia-
ton of the compliment or because he
thought that would be the best way to
induce them 10 let up on the racket.
Which ever it was, it had the desired
effect.

: A Newsboy Killed.

Joseph Keegan, the well-known
newsboy running on the L.. & B., was
killed at the upper end Of the passing
switch here Saturday evening. The
northern bound passenger ran to the
end of the switch to await the arrival
of the down train which was seven
minutes late. The engineer left his
locomotive and crossed the track for
the purpose Of signalling to the en-
gineer of the on-coming train. Young
Keegan accompanied him and as the
train was close at hand attempted to
re-cross to his train. He was struck
by the pilot of the engine and thrown
against the standing train. Life was
extinct when he was picked up, his
skull being crushed and his body
bruised. Keegan's remains were
taken to Hyde Park where his widow
ed mother, whose only support he
was, lived. The young man was one
of the most popular newsboys on the
road and was great favorite with the
trainmen.- Echo.

A DECIDED IMPROVEMENT.

Near the Zion church in Fishing
creek township, is located the GENE
terry, citJ of the dead. The old di-
lapidated board fence has given way
to a beautiful and substantial wire
fence which commends itself to every
passer-by. For this much needed i'm
provement the community is indebted
principly to Mr.. John Zahner, one of
the Trustees. The project being placed
principally in his hands, he deter
mined to raise the funds without a
festival and to have substantial iron
fence enclose the whole cemetery. In
this he was quite successful and the
community feel very grateful to him
for his untiring energy in carrying the
undertaking forward to completion.

Good Temper in Travelling.
From Harper's Bazar.

From Harper's Bazar.
We hear of good many requisites
for travelling in comfort, but none Of
them surpass good temper, especially
in hot dusty weather. To be indiffer-
ent to the crying Of cross and tired
babies, to shawl or wrap over the
shoulders when some fresh air fend
persists in sending a current Of cold
wind from an open window, equally to
be patient when you want the window
open and somebody else wants it shut,
to be ready to accept delays without
grumbling, and to be as sweet at
journeys end as at Its beginning, this
is to be indeed good-tempered.
If one travels easily, and is not
made faint and i'll by the rapid motion
of the train, or seasick by the roll Of
the steamer there is little credit in
keeping amiable. But many women
suffer fearfully from jolting and jarring.
Their heads ache, their stomachs re-
bel, their nerves are on edge. 1t is
nothing short of sanity to be pleasant
in these circumstances ; but some peo-
pie achieve it, and they are held in
pleasant memory by their fellow-travel-
lers. t..
A certain amount Of philosophy is
an armor of proof when one is on a
journey. The thought that not you
but the conductor and the captain and
the engineer are responsible for the
safety of the cars or boat should suffice
to keep you from needless and useless
hgeting when there is halt. Some
people waste an immense amount of
energy in trying to undertake what is
not within their province. No amount
of idle fuming viii cool heated jour
nal or repair break in the machinery,
so, it is as well to keep ones self from
friction, maintain ones composure,
and trust in the kind care of Provi.
! dence
In every emergency, in every ex'
perlence, the good-tempered person
has the advantage of the one who is
cross and irritable. This is alway.

AMlLLoN DOLLARS WORTH OF PROPERTY
DESTROYED AT VIRGINIA.

VIRGINIA, June ao.-The gross loss
from the fire here Sunday is not less
than 81, 900. 900, and the insurance is
estimated at 100000. There is no
positive evidence that any persons
perished in the flames, but some
bones were discovered in the ruins
yesterday which several people thought
were the remains of a woman. All
the leading business houses were To-
Gated on Chestnut street. OF these
not a single one remains. Further
north in the residence portion not a
building was left standing. Two or
three fellows were caught kindling
fires in several Of the houses. In the
confusion all escaped. Capture would
have been followed by lynching
Burke's camp was totally destroyed,
and at the Jones and Rouchelieu
Mines all the Improvements were con-
sumed. At the New England Mine
the boarding camp was burned. Sunday
Virginia had not Jess than two thous-
and inhabitants. In the evening fully
five hundred people went away on the
Mesaba train. All are practically
homeless. At II o'clock two wagon
loads of tents and provisions had been
landed here by teamsters from the
grading camps. The Mesaba trains
bring liberal supplies of provisions, but
it is barely adequate, and must neces-
sar:ly be followed up by further aid.
There was another fire about one
o'clock yesterday afternoon. 1t start
ed west of Mesaba tracks on the south
of the town site, jumped the tracks
and ran up the east side towards the
passenger depot, and soon died out.
1t is stated that two-thirds of the
town of Merit has been destroyed.
