OoMlMlcAMs 60 OVER TO TIE ENEMY.
Being Augmented Every Day The Haytien Government Pre- pared to Prevent Jtmines Land ing on Hnytien Territory.

Philadelphia, Aug. 10.-A morning paper says:
 Three officers, representing the i'm surgents of Santo Domingo, and two civilians. representing those who do not like the manner in which President sam manages affairs in Hayti, have been here three days endeavoring to find vessels to carry munitions of war, recently purchased in New Haven. To avoid suspicion. all the members of the party crossed the Windward passage in small boats. and embarked on a steamship at Guantanamo, landing last week in New York.
 Their Boat Capsised.
 Those members from Domingo were delayed by the capsizing of boat. They claim that there is little danger in landing contraband war material anywhere on the coast of either coun- try except near the principal ports, as the coasts are not patrolled, be- cause neither of the governments has war vessels to do the work. What they claim are needed are small steam tugs to take out their purchases, and to land cargoes sent to the eastern shores of Cuba some months ago. The tugs have been selected, and the only thing that prevents their sale is diff ference as to the price, which, it is thought, will soon be settled.
 An Abandoned mander.
 Cape Haytien, Hayti, Aug. 1O.-Gen. Francisco Lirano, sent from North Chriati by the Dominican government to attack Gen. Ramon Pacheco at Da- jabon, headquarters of the revolution ists, was abandoned, when he arrived in from of the enemy, by his troops who, without firing shot, deserted and entered the camp of Gen. Pacheco. The advanced posts of the latter are at Las Aguas, and the revolutionists are masters of the lords across the River Yoque, thus cutting off com munication between Christi and the interior. The forces of Don Juan Ji- minez, leader of the revolution. are being augmented every day, and the news from all parts of the Dominican republic is favorable to him.
 Guarding the Haytien Coast.
 New York, Aug. 10.-A dispatch to the Herald from Port-au- Prince, Hay ii, says:
 Word comes from Monte Christi that Dominican troops have been hur- ried there.
 The Haytien government is pre- pared to prevent Jiminiz from landing on Haytien territory. All is quiet in Port-au-Prince. Suspects are being interrogated by the authorities.

what the Bishop Thought.

Sometimes profanity is profane, and
then there are deliyerances of that sort
that do not sound profane. 1t depends
a good deal upon the lips whence the
words flow. Not long ago a bishop of
the Episcopal church from a northern
state-a cleric with a well developed
sense of humor-made a flying visit to
Washington, stopping at the home here
Of a gentleman who used to be one of
his parisbioners. This gentleman is ad-
dicted to sulphuric speech. He has
prayerfully resisted for many years his
natural impulse to wither up the air
upon the slightest occasion, but cuss he
will, and he can't help it. One day,
while the bishop was at his house, the
host found that something had gone
wrong in his stable, and he let out on
the coachman in his customary lurid
style. After he had singed the atmos-
for five minutes he started back for the
house, and he was somewhat chagrined
to see the bishop standing in the yard,
looking at some flower beds. The gen
tleman knew that the bishop had heard
him.
81 know it isn't right" he explain
ed to the bishop, ''but you know me,
spade"
"Do you ?" inquired the bishop, with
a quizzical smile. 'Now, / should have
thought that you'd call it a - shov.

A Modern Mrs. MaIaprOp.

An interesting volume, with a Pal
cite In Eastern Palaces" by E. M.
Merrick, tells amusing stories of many
climes. Of the western world was a
modern Mrs. Malaprop, pretty, amiable
and rich, who sat to the author for her
portrait. "She told me-" he says,
''that her husband 'hobnobbed' with
everybody and told such cotton wool
(cock and bully stories; that a girl she
knew was training to be an 'archdea-
con- (deaconess) that she was obliged
to part with her coachman because be
was such a gay Othello;' that she had
india rubber tiles put on the wheels
of her carriage; that a man she knew
was a regular 'marmoset' (martinet)
In his own house, and a certain It'll,
always descended from uncle to nephew,
as they invariably died childish.
Among the numerous celebrities
whom Miss Merrick met in India was
Lord Roberts, whose antipathy to cats
gave rise to a little story of metempsy'
Ghosts. On one of his homeward voyages
Lord Roberts ''asked to have the cat re
moved when he came on board ship
and a stranger, not knowing who b,
was, said to Lady Roberts, Don't yor
think that little gentleman over there
must have been a nous in a former
state p Household Words.

MINING NOTES.
Rich Strikes at Various Places on
Carpenter Creek.

w. l.. Cook and Geo. Marelius
are claiments of the Marguerite and
w. H. Harrison lodes, situated on
Carpenter creek, and about 5 miles
from the town of Neihart. These
claims are adjoining, on one c%ontin-
uous vein, which shows strong
throughout IA distance of 1900 feet.
A tunnel on the Marguerite enters
the hill a distance of 200 feet, in
the face of which is about two feet
of sulphide lead ore, carrying So to
rs per cen lead, 30 OF in silver and
some copper. A Carload of ore is
on the dump, taken out in the course
of a few days, driving the tunnel
ahead.
This mine presents one of the best
showings to be found in these noun
tains. The ore is free smelling, and
easy of access The owner are pre-.
pairing to do some extensive work or
this claim, a notable move being tc
sink a shaft 200 feet deep, opening
levels and slopes. The country i:
easily mined, the large vein stand
ing between walls of porphyry anc
granite.
The Whippoorwill lease, held by
w. S. Jennings, Terry Mclaughlin
and Denny McGrail, never looked
better than it does today. The
work is in a rs foot shaft on tn,
west end of the claim. From this
shaft is a drift running south, in thu
face of which is IS inches solid 0

Time He Was Married.

A recent wedding In a western town
was so much interrupted that the
friends of the welded pair found special
reason TO congratulate them when the
ceremony was at last yer. All went
merrily until the bridegroom was called
upon to produce the wedding ring. In
vain he felt in his trousers pocket for
the indispensable article. Nothing could
be found except a hole through which
the ring had evidently fallen into the
high boot which the young man wore.
What was to be done?
"Take your boot off. said the parson.
The suspense and silence were pain
ful.
The organist, at the priests bidding,
struck up a voluntary"
The young man removed his boot
the ring was found; also a hole in his
stocking, and the worthy minister re-
marked. evidently with more than the
delay of the ceremony in mind:
young man. it is time you were
married"

An ORIGINAL suicide.

Whether it Was Voltaire or some other
observing, m~ed.tative Frenchman who
said, "All Frenchmen are actors, and
the worst are usually on the stage"
does not particularly matter for the
subject in hand. While we have reason
to be SURF of the correctness of the final
part Of the aphorism, we have not time
to show why we do not agree with the
last. 1t is not a scene at the ~assizes
that we are going to describe, although
scenes worthy of the Opera Comique
are constantly presented there. 1t is a
suicide.
A well dressed gentleman descended
the Quai des Tuileries and, seating
himself beside a man who was fishing,
lit a cigar. He then offered one to his
neighbor and plunged into the river,
cigar, cane, silk hat and all. The fish
erman, who was quick TO 0 from
his establishment, plunged after him,
but the first struck out and swan away
The other regained the bank in disgust.
The former shortly returned and,
while treading water before his tenn
porary acquaintance, tossed him a
handful of goldpieces. AT the approach
of "a number of persons the strange
man produced another handful of coins,
which he swallowed and, diving under
the water, did not reappear. His body
was found five hours later, and, as there
was nothing discovered by which to es-
tablish his identity, it was taken to the
morgue. louisville Courier-Journal.

Poetry.

An unusual album was presented to
Willis Clark, brother of Lewis Gaylord
Clark, the poet, on one occasion. with
a request for "some rhymes"
Mr.. Clark was at the house of a
farmer, and the mans daughter had
turned an old account book into an
autograph album in which were in
scribed the names of her various friends
and relatives below appropriate senti-
ments.
Mr.. Clark saw his opportunity, and
after turning over the leaves for a mo-
ment or two he took a pen and wrote
the following verse:
E s. d
This worlds a scene as dark as Styx
Where hope is scarce worth 2
Our joys are born so feeting hence
That they are dear at /
And yet to stay here many are willing
Although they may not have
