rliracuIous Escape From Death.

For some time number of young
lads have been in the habit of congre-
eating among the board piles in G. B.
Howard & Company's lumber yard at
this place and every effort has been
put forward to break up the practice
by Mr. Henry Auchu, a member of the
firm. Fears were entertained that the
boys would not only damage property
but fatally injure themselves.
Last Sunday evening the usual
crew of young lads congregated there
and commenced their mischief Mr..
Auchu secreted himself on the top of a
board pile, waiting for the lads to ride
by on one of the lumber trucks. He
had armed himself with a large ten
inch dynamite fire cracker, intending
to frighten the lads. Hearing the lads
coming he lighted the cracker but it
exploded before he could throw it
from him, severely injuring his right
hand. Mr.. Auchu was alone and he
saw that he was severely injured and
must have immediate surgical aid.
He went to the mill, gave directions
to the watchman and called at the
residence ofDr. Heilman and requested
the doctor to come to his home at once
and dress his injury. DR.. Heilman
summoned DR.. Bardwell to assist him
and found that Mr. Auchu was very
seriously injured. His right thumb
was completely shattered and would
have to be amputated at the second
joint, the first finger at first joint and
second finger at second joint. The
wonderful nerve of Mr.. Auchu was not
sufficient for this operation and he
was Immediately placed under the in
huence of ether and the amputations
made as above stated.
Mr.. Auchu is doing nicely and
stands his misfortune with good cheer,
and is thankful that his life is spared.
No citizen of Emporium is more highly
respected than Henry Auchu and the
sympathy was very general.

"A BIG DAVIS SPORT.
Government Seed Testing,

The act of Congress making appro-
priations for the Department of Agri-
culture for the fiscal year ending June
30, 1899, under the heading Botanical
Investigations and Experiments, Div
ision of Batany," contains the follow
ing clause:
The Secretary of Agriculture is here
by authorized to purchase samples of
seed in open market, test same and
when found not to be up to standard
he may, at his discretion, publish the
results of these tests, together with
the names of the seedsmen by whom
the seeds were sold.
The purchase of seeds for the tests
authorized under this act will begin
July 1, 1898. 1t will be the aim of the
Department of Agriculture in carrying
out this law to put a stop to the sale of
seed so poor as to make probable a
positive injury and loss to the pur-
chaser, thus giving protection on the
one hand to the farmer and gardener
and on the other hand to the honor
able scotsman and seed dealer.
Further information, including a
table of the standards of purity and
termination and a list of the most in
furious seeds likely to occur in COM
mercial seed, may be obtained from
the Department upon application.

Mineral Sanitarium DESTROYED.

The Parker Mineral Sanitarium
which was erected at Gardeau about
six years ago, by Col. N. H. Parker, at
cost of $4,000, was totally destroyed
by fire last Satu day afternoon. The
fire broke out at a few minutes before
five and in an hour and a quarter
nothing but a few rough sections of
the outer brick wall were left standing
to mark the spot where the beautiful
edifice had formerly stood. The fire
is said to have caught from defective
flue, and owing to the rapid spread of
the flames, nothing but few suits of
furniture on the ground floor were
saved. The insurance on the building
is estimated at about $1,000.

r1accabee Reception.

Gladiola Hive, of Emporium, gave a
reception and entertainment to
the Sir Knights of Goodwill Tent, at
their lodge rooms last Thursday even
ing. To say it was immense would be
using very modest term. The officers
of the l.. o. T. M. and K. o. T. M.
marched into the lodge room, escorted
by the lady guards, and having as
sumed their respective places the Lady
Commander sounded the gavel for
order.
Mrs. G. L. Butler delivered the Ad-
dress of Welcome to the Sir Knights
Some very excellent and fitting reci-
tations were delivered by young ladies'
and several children. The solos by
the Misses Hamilton and Hacket con-
tributed largely to the success of the
program. Sir Knight Commander, G.
l.. Butler, in few brief remarks paid
glowing tribute to the Lady Macca-
bees. Sir Knight Record Keeper Nc
Narney's remarks on the boys and
girls was interesting, and the comments
by Sir Knight Dickinson on the ''Find-
ing of the Lost Rib elected much
merriment Next was the drill of the
lady guards, which commanded the
admiration of all, after which refresh
ments were served; then all participat-
ed in a grand cake walk and then re-
tired to their respective homes, feeling
they had spent very pleasant even
ing. The ladies of Gladiola Hive are
very energetic and deserve the hearty
cooperation of all the Knights. Time
and space do not permit me to make
mention of all who filled an active part
but suffice to say each and every one
acquitted themselves nobly.
Yours truly,
A GUEST.
