The twin screw launch Major Powell
started last Thursday for trip through
the Cataract Canyon of the Colorado
river. The craft turned from side to side
of the stream in helpless condition, but
at the mouth of the cataract she struck
rock and sank. Everyone escaped.
This was the first trip ever made by a
craft of her size.
The Virginia Enterprise has suspended
publication. 1t was one of the best

palmy days of the Comstock some of tho
best writers in the country were engaged
on its staff. 1t was the organ of the ring
OF Comstock operators. The sun of the
! stock ring having set, there was no use
for an organ, and so it has gone the way
OF many of its promoters and supporters.

What Was III

A very bashful young man who resides
in this town went to see his girl the
other night, and after long pause. dur
ing which neither one had said word,
she mustered up courage to ask him
what he was thinking about.
He said-"I am thinking about the
same thing you are. !"
She replied-''I'll hit you in the mouth
if you try it"
Anyone guessing what they were
thinking about will be fined one dollar
and costs.--Austip Reveille.

The third accidental death that has
occurred in the city within the past
week took place at the Powiky passen-
ger station on Water street last even-
ing, when John Mccoy was killed by
being run over by a Pewiky engine just
above the station, under tho steel
bridge, There were many features that
mado this fatality the more deplorable.
John, better known us Jack" Nc
Coy was a we'll known figure In Wheel
ing, and until recently was a tunnel
nun and foreman in the employ OF
HaIlock Bros, tile contractors. About
four weeks ugo he left the employ OF

he remained with his wife until last
Thursday, when no was again asked 70

time OF his horrible death. II Ia sup

Miss Tucker Of this city who has been
visiting his wife at Pittsburgh. Short
ly after the arrival Of the WelIsburG
accommodation train, VIII ich arrived
here at 1855 o'clock, he was seen going
above the station buildings, and it is
supposed that no sat down on the track
under the steel bridge. Tho engine at
tached TO the accommodation train had
taken the 1rs above and left th0m
there, after which it returned to the
station, and it was while the engine
was coming down from above that it
struck Mccoy while he was sitting on
the track. His left arm was cut of
close to the shoulder and his head bad
iy mashed, as we'll as numerous cuts
and broken bones all over his body.
Death must have been instantaneous,
The engineer and the fireman Of the
engine did not know that they had run
over and killed a man, and az a con-
sequence 1t was some time before tho
body was discovered. About fifteen
minutes altar this threV boys who were
coming down the track saw the
mangled form OF Mccoy and at once
notified the depot employees who called
for q police officer and then gathered the
remains and took them to the baggage

THE SIN OF FRETTING.

There is one sin, which, it seems to
me, is everywhere, and by everybody,
underestimated, and quite too much
overlooked in valuations of character
1t is the sin of fretting 1t is as COM
mon as air, as speech; SO common
that, unless it rises above it's usual
monotone, we do not even observe it.
Watch any ordinary coming together
of people, and see how many minutes
it will be before somebody frets; that
is, makes moro or less complaining
statement of something or other,
which most probably every one in the
room, or in the car, or the street cor
ner, it may be, knew before and which
probably nobody can help. Why say
anything about it? 1t is cold, il is hot,
it is wet, it is dry; somebody has bro
ken an appointment, ill-cooked q
meal; stupidity or bad faith some
where has resulted in discomfort.
There are plenty of things to fret
about. 1t is simply astonishing how
much annoyance may be found in the
course of every days living, even at
the simplest, if one only keeps a
sharp eye out on that side of things.
Even Holy Writ says we are prone to
trouble as sparks TO fly upward. But
even to the sparks flying upward, in
the BLACKLIST of smoke, there is a blue
sky above; and the less time they
waste on the road, the sooner they
will reach it. Fretting is all time
wasted on the road.

GiUe Thanks.

For the fair May morns, for the rose OF june
Eor fhrsummer's grace, for the wild birds tune
For the autumn leaf, for the harvest's boon.
Tor sweet hopes born and for sorrows dead,
For True songs sung and for fond words saio,
For the ready cup, for the daily bread
For the strength that put bold wrong to rout,
Ezex the faith that rose with a victor's shout,
Glad. white-winged, from the grave of doubt.
Yer she castles grand in our far off Spain,
ssxr the loss that the long years turned to gain
z-tzr brave, sweet songs on the lips of pain.
Scr the race that the faithful feet have run,
For the bitter strife, for the battle won,
For brave deeds planned and for brave deeds
done.
For the blessed touch of mother hand,
For che innocent laugh of childhood, and
For 1.-The light that never on sea or land
Cor the joy that comes, quick, glad, intense,
For the bounding pulse and the quickened
sense,
for natures marvellous opu1ence
Fer The truth that 1iveth forevermore,
En- Eaercy's graciously opened door,
For tine Ii CHIT that shines from the other shore.
Give thanks, give thanks, so the spirit saith,
Est every thing that hath voice or breath
Give thanks for life, for life and death.

FIGHTING A GROUNDHOG.

just about grounding day, which
all well informed people know to be
Feb. 2, New Jersey farmer heard a
flock of crows making great racket
in a field near the woods.
The farmer investigated and found
the cause of their disturbance to be a
ground hog looking for something to
eat. For some reason or other the
flock of crows resented the appear
ance of the little animal and assailed
him on every side with sharp beaks
and claws. AS good luck would have
it, the ground hog was near his hole
and he went in hurry.
His sudden disappearance caused
surprise and CONSERVATION among the
crows, and for a time they flew around
wildly. Then they had a council, with
the result that old crows few to the
top of rail fence few feet from the
burrough as sentinels while the 9TH
ers flew some distance away.
Ten minutes elapsed and the ground
hog reappeared.

signal and the main army came flying,
but the animal was too quick and
lodged into his home.
The exasperated crows Immediately
fell to work and in the course of 10
minutes plugged up the hole with dirt
and stones. Then they INDUCED in a
chorus of exultation and were having
joyous time when one old crow gave
a terrible cav of rage.
He had discovered the ground hog
sitting on knoll so feet away, hav-
ing emerged from the other end of his
burrow.
Then there was another council of
war, and the farmer expected to see
another attack, but it soon became
evident that the crows were disheart-
ened, and after awhile they arose as
one bird, and with a few faint hearted
caws flew to the woods and disappear
ed, thus acknowledging the ground
hog was smarter than they.

"For ten years. he said, II have been nerv-

pulpit, could [ hold handle my books
