SWALLOWED JUMPING BEANS.
Thought They Were Capsules and Took
 the Dose In the Dark.

the Dose In the Dark.
 good citizen in the northwestern section of the city has been through an exciting experience, say the Washing ton Post Being Q dyspcptic the gen tleman visited his physician. A pre-. scription was written for him which the druggist filled. The result was a small box of capsules, which he took home and placed upon the sideboard, with the remembrance of the instruc- tions to take two every hour in the evening after eating until bedtime. These were obeyed implicitly. It was dark in the dining-reom and the gen. tleman went for his medicine the first evening without the precaution of lamp and administered to himself three doses of two capsules each before re- tiring. He was awakened some hours afterward by a strange sensation. For aught the man could tell he seemed within to be mammoth penochle board on which million little objects were dancing. He could distinguish kicks and jumps so vividly that it was in vain for his wife to try and convince him that he was dreaming She suq- gested the doctor, and the servant was dispatched in hot haste Before he ar rived the sick man asked for more of the capsules. which were brought to his bedside. When the cover was re- moved there were Mexican beans in- stead of capsules, the busy kernels bouncing as merrily as spring lambs. The box of capsules had been mis- placed accidentally by the young son and heir and the beans put in its place. The doctor does not say what kind of medicine he finds useful in such cases.
 Delaware Terrapin.
 Epicurcs sniff at the terrapin found In the Delaware and Chesapeake canal, but natives of the region eat him with delight. He is locally known as the red belly. Some persons eat him at any size, but the large red belly is not so palatable as one, say, the size ef an av- craze male human hand. Properly | cooked and dressed with rich sauce of cream, salt, pepper and wine, the red belly is excellent, and he doubtless forms part of many dish of terrapin l served at high rates in more or less fsshiQpaRle yestaprants,

The Late GZar Would Not Countenance
 Bribery in the Capture of Rustchuk.
 I happen to be cognizant of q curious episode which strongly illustrates the honorable and straightforward char acter of the late ear. It occurred when he still the czarevitch, in com mand of the army of the Lon; the period was near the end of July, the place the village of Obertenik, where was located the headquarters of the czarevitch, says Archibald Forbes in, the London News.
 The army was echeloned along the road to Rustchuls, waiting for the word to besiege that fortress when the siege train should arrive. Meanwhile it did not possess an intrenchment tool or a siege gun. Yet the place of every division had been allotted in the planned environment, which, was privily told, was to precede but by day or two the gaining of the place by coup de main. sI.toolz the liberty to remark that to at tempt coup de main against fortress so strong as we knew Rustchuk to be was simply to court disastrous and bloody failure.
 "All the same, significantly replied the staff officer with whom l was in conversation, you will see that we shall have Rustchuk within week. 1 will tell you a secret" he continued. ''The pasha commanding in Rustehuk has been found to have his price; the coup de main will be simply decent blind to his treachery; and after make believe assault the place will be sur rendered, and we shall be in possession of the strongest fortress of the Turkish quadrilateral."
 The project never came off and sub- sequently learned the reason. Every detail of the arrangement had been settled. It only remained to inform the czarevitch of the scheme which promised results so valuable To the surprise and dislnay of his staff, Alex ander broke into passion of wrath and disgust He denounced the pro- ject as treacherous, cowardly and un- soldierly. "Let us take Rustchuk," he exclaimed, eff we can; but by the sword and the siege gun. not by the base method of q golden key! am ashamed of you as Russian soldierss CvJhiI OpfErS .fiIkHDyNG PCAMc

Everything is pretty lively around
Moorhead. II it keeps on booming it
will pass Ekalaka. Everything looks
very favorable. People moving in every
year. Things are getting to look a little
NOR like as If Powder river would come
to the front yet.
There was a big dance at Mr.. Cleaven-
gers on December 29th, the first dance
We have had on the river in -four years.
and 1t was "A grand success, people com
ing in from everywhere. There were
twenty eight numbers sold. Among
those present were X. Il. Selway and his
partner from Pumpkin creek. Mr.. and
Mrs. Huckens from lower Powder. Mr..
and Mrs. Lukuk from the II. and so
many others ! could not count them.
All Of the Collins boys were there. and
as you all know hat was quite a bunch.
But the most fun was to see the bows
trying to rustic partners: tiny were rid
ing IN every direction, but lots Of them
got left. The music vas furnished by
Mr.. leager and Mr.. Huckcns. and it twas
very good. They danced from 6 O'Clock
in the evening until q o'clock in the
morning. They danced everything from
a waltz to a jig. The dance would have
been complete II this would be" lady's
man had been there. but he couldn't get
a partner. as usual. So he did o come.
The calling was done boy the Three Bar

The school rs now progressing very
nicely. There are ten scholars. All the
old cowboys seem To want To get a little
more education. Next term they say
there is going 20 be a man teacher. II
that is the case everybody will have
enough education.
Lew HartsOugh has just finished his
big icehouse, ard is going 10 put up ice.
He SAYS he is going 10 have ice cream
next summer is he has nothing else. Lew
has three boarders this winter. He has
just returned from Clearmont. where he
has beer all summer acting as stock in

Tom Owens has caught fifteen wolves
and twenty six coyotes this winter. and

The Action of ChIoroform.

The impression held by DR.. George
F. Shrady as to the greater safety of
chloroform in young people, relatively.
than in old, is of note in connection
with the case Of a boy patient, about 9
years of age, whom he saw in consulta-
ton with two other physicians. and who
was to undergo an exploratory opera
ton for a wound Of the head sustained
in falling down stairs. He passed very
easily under chloroform anaesthesia
when suddenly he ceased breathing. the
eyes became CLASSY. and death pallOr
quickly spread over his face. Bystand
ers said the boy was dead, and Dr
Shrady was ready to express the same
opinion, but concluded TO institute ar
tificial respiration at once, and contin
ued it 90 minutes before obtaining any
sign of life-respiration had entirely
ceased, the radial pulse could not be felt
and the only evidence of life had been "a
few convulsive heart beats.
Suspension by the feet was tried as
well as the inhalation of nitrate of amyl
The case appeared desperate, and though
tempted repeatedly to abandon hi.
efforts DIR. Shrady was finally reward
ed by the return of consciousness. This
was his first unpleasant experience with
chloroform, although constantly on thu
lookout for It. 1t demonstrated in II
striking manner the rapidity and force
of its action at a time when danger was
perhaps least expected. The patient :
heart was sound, the chloroform OF
guaranteed purity, and every precau
ton observed.-New York Tribune.

There Is paradox which upon IT,

ton. but which. after careful study.
does not pan out 81 well. The story
was first told upon a gentleman named
Achilles, who was rather prominent in
early political times, and who had "a
reputation as an all round athletic. He
could run, and run fast at that. One day
he started t. catch "A tortoise, which was
as slow in those days as he is today.
Achilles was some distance behind the
tortoise and set out To capturei il. Achil-
les went twice ~ fast as the slow old
tortoise and gained constantly, but he
never caught il. No matter what prog
ress Achilles made. the tortoise went
ahead just half as far. BY this time the
distance between the two. had they lived
TO this day. would have been infinitesi

ran with the proper mathematical pre-
cision there would still be an interval
