An CnIueky BunKIs.

On the Fist of December, 1se6, Ad- miral DundAs gave up the command of the fleet and returned to England. He was succeeded by Admiral Lyons, between whom and Dundas a signal parting took place which will long be remembered as Q standing ioke in the navy.
 As Admiral Dundas left the feet at Kamiesch the crews of both Eng fish and French ships manned the yards and gave him a parting cheer. At the same moment, by the desire of DundSs, Q signal was run up to Sir E. Loyns on board the Agamemnon, May success attend you, to which Sir E. Lyons ordered to be hoisted in reply, May happi- ness await you"
 But though in real life hanging and happiness are generally oonsid- ercd Co have no very close oonneo- tion, yet in the signal oodo they are very much alike. Unfortunately, in the hurry to reply to Admiral Dun- dss, the flag for the former instead of the latter word was hoisted, and what was worse the stupid blunder was not discovered and hauled down till the whole fleet had seen and read it.-Pearson's Weekly.

Tn her it seemed almost i'm personal, as though she said, You have not seen our cat" But in Princess, with all her dignity of character and department it was a besetiing sin. She must have her tribute from every man, woman and beast and she would resort 10 alien airs and graces to attract notice. Her most ludicrous attempt was to tasoinate a horse whose rider had stopped at the steps of a low terrace beforo tbe veranda. The master having duly complimentsd her. she xalked toward the horses head and began q display of feline oajolery at which the human spectators looked in spceohless astonishment The horSe whose head was turned to- ward her when she began the per fnrmanoe, presently turned it away, on which she rose to her feet with an air of offended beauty that raised . about of laughter and sent her in- to the house in open veXatiOn. - Temple Bar.

The PnaccnAker.

It was only a newsboys' fight, a frequent occurrence on Park TOW |; cause unknown This time ii was a three c0rnered affair. The big boy and two small ones were punching. biting and kicking each other to the delight of a fast gathering crowd. The big boy was getting a little the best of 1t when the good Samaritan with the long whiSkers and eye glasses happened along and stepped in to protect tho weak against the strong. Firmly he grasped the big tyrant by the arms and pulled him of; intention good; results disap- pointing. In the brief moment that followed both small boys got in two swift blows each, successfully clos ing the big boys eyes, and then ran away. The crowd jeered in threat ening manner. The Samaritan let go his hold and disappeared in the pass ing throng. The spectators quickly melted away. The big boy groped blindly about for cold water.-New York Tribune

A Small but Beautiful and B1sy Spot In the sahara Desert.
 Tho Biskran oasis, with it's l50, GOO trees, Is only about two miles long, and extends in half dozen little villages by the Oued stream. The Arabs. in their poetic phraseology, style it variously the Desert Queen, tho Queen of the Gases and the Pearl of the Desert. Seen after two days journey through barren. tree less wastes, with its waving palms and brilliant verdure. 1t is a sight difficult to rival Biskra has several hne buildings. of which the town hall. built in the oriental style. with cleaning cupola and forest of dainty pillars, k the gem. It cost EG.CCo. and is cheap at that figure. but. of course, labor here is had for a song.
 The Oued Biskra flows through the oasis. and causes much of its prosperity. The chief industry is date raising. and nearly all the in habitantS own little plot of ground devoted to this purpose, and gener- ally their only source of revenue. Biskra owes much to the Compagnie de Toned el Rirh, who bored arte- sian wells and laid out vast date plantations.
 They also erected a fine casino, and constructed a tramway to the celebrated Hammam Salahine, about six miles distant - springs well known to the Romans. whence Risk ra was called Ad Piscinam. In con- sideration of all these benefits the company was granted various privi- leges. They are to enjoy for 99 years the profits arising from the springs and from 800 acres of land, besides a large town plot

The district, however, is not rainlesS. as k often supposed; on the contrary, in winter there Is a fair share of rain. though not so much as in AlgierS, where tb.S Is the weak point in the cliNate. Like Algiers. it is beautifully mild. there is no snow. and for the majority of the winter there is brilliant sun- shine and @ very even temperature. In the summer, however, 1t Is al- most uninhabitable. No one dreams of staying there unless military or other duty compels them. The beat is intense, the water noXious, and snakes and scorpions abound, whose bite often proves deadly in an hour.

A Serious Accident.
From Mondays Daily.

4 serious, and what may prove a fatal accident, happened to Brake man Chamberlain this morning, near Rock Butte. He was on train number l. south bound, to which were attached three or four freight c.rs in front of the mail and express and passenger coaches. Coming 2 down the grade from Rock Butte, Chamberlain was on top of one Ofthe cars and was thrown of Tn some manner, just how no one knows, as no one saw it and he has been uR- conscious ever since. He was not missed until the train reached Je- rome Junction, the other train men supposing that be was still at his post of duty on the front end of the train. As soon as he was missed, the engine and caboose of train number g which was at Jerome Junction was sent in search Of him and he was found insenslble beside the track at bridge 24. He was lifted into the caboose and brought to the Sisters hospital in Prescott. At late hour this afternoon be had not returned to consciousness. He had big gash cut in the right side of his head and his right eye was badly bruised and swollen. pr. Ab- bolt, who attended him, stated that no bones were broken but he was suffering from coneussion of the brain, and might be injured inter nally.

Lightning struck a young man in West Virginia while he was driving, and the effect of the shock. which did not kill him, was very like that of the common electric battery with the handles His fin gers became so tightly clenched to the reins that it was necessary to pry them open. Something like this seems to have happened to Tom Watson when the populist vice presidential lightning struck him at St. Louis, except that his fingers have not yet been pried open. despite all the efforts of the pOpo- crat leaders. It looks very much as fl Tom would continue to drive the popocrat coach until it reaches its logical destination.-T Tucson Cit izeu.

\ SAD DEATH.
The Wife of District Attorney Morrison Passes Away Suddenly, But
 Peacefully
 FroE Fridays Daily.

frUo Fridays Daily.
 4 gloom was cast over this com munity this morning when the an nouncemeut was made that Mrs. R. E. Morrison had died very suddenly during the early morning hours. Her condition three or four days ago was such that pr. McCandless, the attending physician, called Dr. Hall in consultation, and both phy- sicisns expressed the opinion that the case was 8 very serious one, al though 1t was thought yesterday the cricis had passed, and she ap- peared much better. Her husband and sister felt quite encouraged at her apparently improved condition. and confidently hoped that she would be able ts be up again m a 6 few days. But alas, the grlm mes senger was lowering nearer the loved one than her friends had any reason to suspect.
 At daylight this morning she was awake and spoke to her nurse, and some time afterwards, on going to her bed. she was discovered to be dead. having apparently died while asleep.
 Deceased was an exceptionally bright woman of fine attsinments, was a loving wife and devoted mother, and was universally loved 8 ] respected by all who knew her, and in her death the community suffers severe loss.
 The affliction is a terrible one on her husband, as, in addition to the loss of her comPanionship and wise counsels, they have four small chil- dren, who are deprived of the loving care of a mother.
 The family has the sysmpathy of the entire community iu theiI be- reavemsnt. The funeral will take place Sunday morning at g o'clock.
