Quaint ENGLISH Custom.

1t is the custom of many Londoners
to gather around st. Paul's cathedral
on the last night Of each year and
sing Aud Lang Syne' and other
more or less appropriate songs till IL
o'clock. AS the Standard describes 1t:
There is no w%atch-night service at
London's great cathedral. no tolling
OF bells to speed the going, no Joy
GUS peal to greet the coming guest.
The crowd is left to provide its own
sentiment. Slowly the clock In the
southwest tower chimes the four
quarters, and then comes the deep
boom which tells of the arrival OF an
other year. There is a second or two
of silence, and then a mighty cheer
bI eaks out, friend grasps friend by
the hand and the ti~me-honored wishes
are repeated over and over again.
There is an inde%scribabie something
that gives a solemnity to the occasion.
The surroundings. the traditions.
whatever. it may be. all tend to invest
the scene with an importance Of the
moment"

sRANDoN's HORSE DROWNED
WHILE FoRDiNG sIBYLEE

We learn that G.. w. Brandon, of
Dover, had a horse drowned recently
while fording the Sibylee near his
ranch, says the Wheatland World. He
drove in the swollen stream with a
team hitched to a light spring wagon,
and the water was SO swift the wagon
and horses were turned completely ov-
er several times. Mr.. Brandon was
thrown out in the water but was haul
ed to shore by ]. w. Sloan, who was
present, by the aid of a lariar rope.
The team floundered around in the wa
ter and the boys finally succeeded in
cutting the harness and getting one
horse out, but the mate was drowned.
The Sibylee is a very wicked stream
to attempt to ford these days. on &C
count Of the recent heavy rains. The
current is very swift, and on account
of the steep banks 1t is almost impos-
sible to ford the young river.
