Two Singular Accidents.
WHEELING, W. VA., June 16.—A
few months ago W. D. Derby, of
Ridgeway, Raleigh county, had one of
his eyes put out by a sp.inter living
fiorn a stick of timber while lie was
operating a buzz saw. Derby would
not go to work at tie saw again fear
ing an accident to bis well eye, but
went to driving au ox team,as about
the safest work he could do. On Tues
day he was driving his oxen, when he
struck one of them with his whip,
which had a hard leather lash. The
lash wound round the ox's leg and the
tip end of the lash, a piece of leather
the sizs of a pea was snapped off. It
flew into Derby's well eye with such
force itat it cut the eyeball opt-n and
destroyed the sight, rendering Derby
totally blind. On Tnesday Lewis
Caughey, of Fairview, a cousin of Der
by's, who also loßt an eye seme time
before in a sawmill, was driving a
horse aloDg the read, when a small
stone was thrown by the horses hoof.
It struck Caughy's well eye and put it
out.
Left the Baby in the Car Rack.
The train which left Boston at G.2G
o'clock the other night atd arrived in
Medford twenty minutes later had a
package in one of the racks of car No.
107. The people left the train but no
body took the package, so Brakeman
Foster'lifted it down and handed it to
Brakeman IrviDg, who asked Baggage
keeper Dobie to keep it until the owner
called. The tiain men had the curiosi
ty to open it whereupon they were sur
prised to find a dead mate infant. Chief
of Police Whitney was then summoned
and Examiner Durrell was
called, after Dr. J- E. Clark had decid
ed that the infant had been boru a few
hours before and might have been liv
ing if proper care had been taken at
birth. Dr Durrell felt that the case
was of suflicent importance to hold an
autopsy and fixed 11 o'clock this morn
ing as the time. The infant was
wrapped in the mother's underclothing
and wrapping paper from Cushman &
Co. 's and Barrett's dye house, and a
name was written on the paper which
may lead to the discovery of the moth
er.— Boston Herald.
TraiujSpeed Recorded by a Mac blue.
For the past few days a new and im
portant invention has been undergoing
a test on the Lehigh Valley Railroad.
The machine is in a special car, v. hicli
can be attached to any train. It is
claimed that by the new invention any
person can tell just how fast a train is
moving at auy point on the road. The
system is somewhat similar to that of
the old telegraph instrument. A roll
of paper is spun from a machine in tie

Adrian Mosscroft was in or very
nearly in, the depths of despair. Kverv
| tiling had l>oen going more or less
wrong with him ever since the first day
of the new year. On that day an adroit
pickpocket had relieved him of his gold
! watch and his wallet, the latter con
j tabling his savings for several months.
1 In fact, all the money ho had in the
world, for Adrian had not begun to
saye until he met Ethel Burroughs, the
pretty buyer of tho lace department of
an enormous uptown establishment.
I Shortly after tho loss of his fortune he
I was taken down to his bod with rheum
lat ism, and there he remained for two
months, and when ho got up again he
found himself out of a situation, the
firm in whoso employ ho had boon for
more tlian the years having "gone," as
the errand l*y expressed it and "bust
ed with the biggest kind of a bust."
'What in Heavens name am I*l o do?'
asked Adrian of himself one morning
; as lie paced to and fro in thesmall room
i he occupied tti Mrs. Hasher's 'home for
a few Select boarders.' 'Of course I
i shall get another situation before long,
j but 1 am already in debt, which it will
take me a long time to clear away, and
—and—confound it, I shall not ueable
to invite Kthel to go anywhere, or to
giye her any bouquets, or candies, or
books, or anything else. Byjove! I've
a good mind to ask Aunt Taiuasin for
a loan. She must be pretty well off,
for she used to tip me generously when
I was a boy. I'll do it—l'm sure she'll
let me have it—and pay her back as
soon as I caul' lie had just come to
this conclusion when a maid servant
knocked at his door atul handed in a
letter. He tore open the envelope, took
out tho enclosure and began to read ;
i 'My dear nephew,' he related slow
ly. 'Why this must ln> from Aunt
i T.imasin. She's the only person I'm
i nephew to. What a strange coinci
donee! In a moment more I should
have leen writing to her.' Then he
went on with the letter :
•1 am very sorry to bo obliged to ask
of van the favor 1 am about to ask.
You, as well as all the rest of my rela
tions, haye always thought I was rich,
although I have lived all my life in a
very simple manner. I have never said
anything to the contrary, for I have
. found that being thought rich secures
: for cue a great deal more attention than
>ne would receive if supposed to bo
| poor—a lamentable fact, but a fact nev
ertheless. But this is neither here nor
j there. Can you give me twenty-five
; dollars? If you cuu I want them at
' once.
Y our mother's only sister,
TAMASIN BROCK.
I'ippintowu, It. 1., April 1,
'Byjove!' exclaimed Adrian when
j he had finished Lis aunt's letter, 'wants
I help from me, and I ust on the point]of
asking a loan from her. Poor old
: auntie. I wo.ider what can be the mat
' rer. She used to liaye enough to live
on comfoitably, I know, and how good
she was to me when I was a little moth
erless boy. I ought to be ashamed of
myself for not having been to see her
for the last five years. Haven't even
written to her. Suppose she thinks
i *lll a selfish wretch and have forgotten
all her kindness. But I haven't, and
, slit 's got to hive the money. My moth
' er's only sister and my only aunt. Yes
| she's got to have it. But where is it to
come from ?' Then his eyes brightened
as they fell upon his spring overcoat,
carefully spread over the back of his
chair. 'l'll sell that,' he said. 'Jim
Turner wants one. He'll take It. and
I'll wear my winter one till warm
weather, on account of the rheumatism,
I'll tell the boys. Ila ! ha ! who'd ever
thought I could have a merry thought
in connection with that pain fiend, the
rheumatism. And I*ll pawn my dress
suit and my sealskin cap. I have never
pawned anything and 1 have always de
clared that I never would, but in this
case I must fiy to my uncle to get help
for ray aunt.'
He was ns good as his word, and that
_ I
very afternoon a check for ?-•"> went to
Aunt Tam.
The third of April dawned bright and
clear, but the air was undeniably chilly
and Adrian's coat did not feel at all un
c /intertable. And so lie was saying to
himself when, coming out of the front
door of his boarding bouse, lie ran
against the postman. 'Another letter
for you, sir,' said the functionary.
'From Aunt Tam again,' soliloquized
Adrian as he glanced at the hand-writ
ing, 'acknowledging the receipt of the
check, I suppose; hope it reached the
good old lady in time.'
He opened the letter —he opened his
eyes—he opened his mouth—he stared
like one suddenly demented, for this is
what he read :
'You DEAR YOUNO AITUL FOOL.—
I received yours dated April Ist, with
five and twenty inclosed. 1 know how
you raised it. I have a spy in the same
house with you. All your misfortunes
siuce the beginning of the year are
known to me also, but known to me
only lately, or you should have heard
from me before. 'Now is the time,'
thought I, 'to try if lie lias really any
kind remembrance of his old aunt.' 1
find you have,and 1 return you five and
twenty dollars with the interest that
has accumulated on them since yester
day. Go to the City Bank and you will
find there awaiting you 5'10.26.

One evening not long since I went to
the theatre and got a very nice seat In
the orchestra. As I went very early 1
had an unobstructed view of the stage.
After awhile the orchestra, 'ike a voter
on election day, began gradually to till
up.
Then the trouble began, and, as JB
usually the case with trouble,there was
a woman at the bottom of it. My
t rouble was a tall hat with an ostrich
feather on it that seemed to tickle the
big chandelier, and as she sat right in
front of me, and obstructed my view
of the middle of the stage, where the
Villain, ns a general thing, gives up the
ghost.
1 was congratulating myself with the
hope that the villain might possibly
nerish miserably on the side of the
stage, and I'd have a chance to gloat
over hi u, when another female came in
and sat alongside of the one already
mentioned. Site had on a hat that had
a (lower-garden on the roof; it closed
out entirely the view on the left. Un
less the villain was kind enough to per
ish on the extreme right, my chances of
seeing him draw his last breath were
very slim.
I saw very little of what was happen
ing during the lirst act. There was a
man sitting next to me. I think he
was from the West. When the curtain
went down he weut out, suffering with
rage, the hats having obstructed his
view too. lie must have been a medium
for he had a spirit call between each
act. As ho passed out he almost
knocked the tall woman's hat off with
! his elbow, and he trod on my toes be
sides. When he came back, he almost
knocked the other hat off, and walked
about some more on my corns. The
ladies looked around at hiin, but he
never quailed; such is the stimulating
1 effect of a clove.
lie was in a talkative mood,and turn
ing to me he said, in a whiskey-laden
whisper,'l wish themenin the theatres
would put on their tall hats, just to see
how the women would like it !'
*1 have read,' 1 replied, 'that some
genius has invented a theatre hat that
shuts up, the same to be worn by the
ladies.'
•A tall ladies' theatre hat that shuts
down would answer the purpose bet
ter,' said lie. 'I was reading a piece in
the paper the other day that in Corea
women wear hats, in and out of doors,
which vary in height from three to six
feet, and that there has not been a
theatrical performance in Corea for the
last four years. I don't wonder at it,'
continued the inebriate, winking at uie.
1 think the ladies in front of us must
have overheard our conversation, for
one said to the other, evidently talking
at us, 'lt's a pity some genius can't in
vent something that will hold a man iu
his seat between the acts.'
Tes,' replied the other lady ; 'but
instead of a hat that could be shut up
in the theatre,a man who could be shut
up would be very desirable.'
The inebriate winched a little and
said to me, 'An eminent scientist attri
butes the extraordinary longevity of a
woman who died in Boston at the age
of a hundred and fourteen to the fact
that she never wore a high hat in a
theatre.'
One of the tall hats bobbed about in
dignant Iv as the owner remarked; 'The
vigorous health of a Philadelphia man,
now in his hundredth year, is due to
the fact that he never went out between
the acts to make astronomical observa
tions through a glass, and came hack
with a breath strong enough to draw a
full house.'
'There is a consolation,' remarked
the man from the West, 'in case there
is a fire; the woman with a big hat wall
have it jammed down over her eyes,
and she wall never get out alive.'
The woman with the flower-garden
on the dome of her hat was silent for a
moment, and then said ; 'The inan
who keeps his mouth shut never lets
the public know what nr. ignoramus he
is.'
She had the last word, for the West
ern man had temporarily exhausted his
ammunition. lie made no reply. There
were several people in our immediate
vicinity who made uncomplimentary
remarks aliout other people who talk
much in the theatre. One suggests
that some people who brought their
mouths with them to the theatre should
be compelled to leave them outside and
get a check for them, as is done with
umbrellas at the art gallery.
I left the theatre before the perform
ance was over. I didn't get to see the
stage at all. I was dazed bv the con
versation of the Western man, and 1
limp yet from the injuries my toes sus
tained by his walking about on thenv
Is there no way to suppress the three
great theatrical nuisances, viz., tall
hats, irrelevant conversation, and go
ing out between the acts ?
When Sliam Jewelry May be Worn.
Sham jewelry may be worn for a va
riety of reasons. If it is to give im
pression of wealth which the wearer
does not possess, then the practice is
wrong. But if the proftseion or career
of a husband requires that his wife
should go much into society on a small
income, she would be perfectly justi
fied in wearing imitations to saye mon
ey. A smart dressy appearance de
mands tlie U9e of many little knick
knacks and etceteras, the fashion of
which is constantly changing. For in
stance, at present gold jewelry i 9 abso
lete for evening wear, and as a lady
scornfully remarked to a poor relation
"You can wear nothing but diamnods."
Under these circumstances it cannot
bo wrong for a lady who cannot afford
to buy diamonds and lias not iubeiited
any to wear a moderate amount of
paste. She should not, however, try to
pass her ornaments off as diamonds,
nor speak of her "jewels" with an air
of importance which would lead people
to infer that she had any of value.—

M. Quml Writes About it furious
Character Well-Known to
K very body.
You have seen people who seemed to
ache all oyer to make Homeoue unhap
py ? Just such an old cuicuiidgeOß
was on the train tho other day when It
stopped at St. Thomas, and u bridal
couple entered our car. Wo all know it
was a bridal couple, because there were
friends down to see 'em off, and the
bride and grootn stood there nnd re
ceived tho congratulations for four or
five minutes. The bride looked a bit
older thnu the groom, and the minute
the old curmudgeon noticed this lie
slid over and planked himself in the
the seal ahead of them,and after a min
ute or two turned and said :
'lleg pardon, hut can you tell ino
who's funeral that was buck there I"
'Why, there was no funeral!' ex
claimed the bride, in answtr.
•Oh ! 1 thought there was,' lie said,
in a dry, sarcastic way, and he pretend
ed to read his pa|HU" for three or four
minutes before turning again with ;
'Are you taking your sou to the sea
shore, ma'am V'
'No, sir. This is my husband !'
•Oh, it is t I'd neyer have Busjtecled
it I*
Then lie went on for a quarter ot an
hour, teilirg about a farm lie owned in
Canada, and then suddenly said :
'Young man, I'd like to have you and
your uunt go and see the farm and
make mo an offer for it.'
The btidal couple turned white and
red and let go of hands for a moment,
while the old curmudgton changed the
subject and began to talk about Niag
ara Falls.
•Ever there ?' he asked.
Both shook their heads.
'l'd advise you to stop off if you have
time. It's a grand sight. 1 suppose,
though, you want to arrive at the same
time with the body. What did he die
of, ma'am Y'
'l—l don't understand you V she
stammered, iu a painful way.
'Oh, beg pardon, I somehow got it in
to my head that you had been to a fu
neral, or were going to one, or some
sucii tlung !'
He then related the particulars of a
smash-up on the road iu which he had
uu arm broken and his wife was killed,
and added :
'The case is in court yet,but I've lost
tnj marriage certificate and I can't
prove she was my wife and don't ex
pect to get any damages. I think 1 un
derstand you to say ma'am, that you
have been married fourteen years 5"
•Olt, no ! no ! sir !'
'Beg pardon, but perhaps it is only
nine or ten. What 1 was going to say
was that you ought to sacredly preserve
the certificate. I suppose you liaye it
with you ?'
Bride and groom looked at each other
iu consternation. The document hadn't
been thought of in their hurry and hap
piness.
'Was reading of a case the other day,'
placidly continued the old wretch,
•where a hotel-keeper had a couple sent
to prison for two years because they
could not show a marriage certificate.'
The bride turned so red that It seemed
as if she would suffocate.and the groom
so white that his cars looked like new
blotting pads. That was tlie last straw,
j Five or six of us had l>oen holding an
indignation meeting a few scats back,
and our delegate, who had whipped his
seventh man hi the prize-ring, now
went forward and whispered in the old
curmudgeon's left ear :
'Say, mister niau, you let that couple
alone or I'll break your neck I This
thing lias been carried far enough !'
'Certainly—certainly,'said old mean
ness, as lie got up. Excuse me. tna'ain
—and you, bub—ami if you should hap
pen to have any trouble with Lite corpse
in Buffalo, don't fail '
The delegate choked him off there
and took him to the last seat in the car
and jammed him down and warned him
to stay jammed, and such looks of relief
as stole over the faces of that bridal
couple t never expect to see agaiu on
earth.— Detroit Free Press.
Adventure of a Party of Western Kx
plorers Who Were Chased by
Flying Kails.
While a party of explorers a few
years ago were pushing their way a
cross one of the arid and desert tracts
of Colorado, they were overtaken by a
furious wind storm. The clouds ac
cumulated with marvelous rapidity .and
in comparatively a few moments an al
most impenetrable darkness closed m
upon them. Naturally, thtir first
thought was shelter, but as far as the
eye could reach not a tree could lie seen,
and only far off in the distance appear
ed what might be a pile of rocks or
bowlders.
Toward this their horses were quick
ly turned, and as they approached the
supposed protection, to their astonish
ment it seemed to move, and soon re
solved itself into a number of balls of
large size, that,under the advance gusts
of the storm, began to gyrate about in
a remarkable manner. Now a fierce
gust struck them and,as if somemighty
shell had exploded ; the balls rolled a
way in every direction over the plain
accompanying their motion with a
strange cracking sound. What had ap
peared to lie a shelter had now become
an additional danger. The rolling balls
alarmed tho horses. The party, turn
ing about, was soon in a wild race be
fore the storm, and before the crashing
balls that would now roll swiftly and
evenly along, then striking some ob
stacle, bound into the air like living
things, go whirling about, and come
down hundreds of feet away, to bounce
along in the same erratic manner. For
several miles this race was kept up, on
ly censing when the storm had spent its
fury. Tho explorers then stopped to
inyestigate, and found that the balls
were plants, and that this was one of
tho many wonderful ways adopted by
nature to secure the dispersal of tna de
pendents.
The plant in the C'oloraao country is
known as the great tumble-weed. It is
six feet or more across and four or five
feet high, and grows in the shape of a
flattened sphere. It has very delicate
and fragile roots that barely hold it in
the dry soil. When it goes to seed it
dries and becomes remarkably brittle.
Then the tops bend in together, and
giye the plant a still more spherical
form. Tlie roots die and wither,so that
the lirst gual of wind severs their con
nection with the soil,and away they go,
often collecting in vast numbers, so
that when piled together, resembling
ledges of rocks, as we have seen, they
are ready to break np and roll away
with the llrst gale. The force with
which these plants strike is astonishing.
A horse or tent could easily be knocked
over, and loss of life would probably at
tend their movements if they could not
be avoided. These migrations are not
without purpose, us durintr them the
seeds,that are held loosely .are scatteied
over miles of country, insuring a future
crop of the plants.
