Each Congressman wants a cleik,

The tendency of social talk is shal
lowness. When people meet in mis
cellaneous crowds they put their most
superficial ideas outermost, and be
come social cn their lowest plane of
thought The sensitive and refined
retire within themselves and let
coarser persons lead tho company
and direct the current of conversa
tion. This explains why a man who
lacks education, ideas and polished

nilea of etiquette, will push his way
nmong ladies and make himself the
apparent centre of admiration, with
an ease which is the despair of men

Hebe we have more examination
into the wonderful sunset skies of
thi.i winter. Joseph Wharton of Phil
adelphia, tends an interesting commu
cation to the Ledger on the much
discussed subject of the red sunsets
Mr. Wharton early gave in his adher
ence to the theory that the afterglow
vsr canned by the presence in the
atmosphere of volcanic dust, proba
bly tho.vn out by the extraordinary
eruptions in Java. As confirmatory
cf that theory he reports the result
of a microscopic examination of tne
sediment remaining after the careful
collections and evaporation of a
quantity of snow. This dust show
ed under the microscope the charac
teristics of volcanic glass. The de
tailed description given by Mr.
Wharton need not be repeated. It
apparently establishes the presence
in high regions of the atmosphere of
there floating particles of volcanic
origin, and thus supplies tho link of
observed fact that was wanting in
the theory already advanced.
The Philadelphia Times gives Fred
Douglass the following marriage no
tice : When an old man of seventy
five marries a young woman of thirty-six,
more or less, why the world
will gossip any way. All the more if
Le is a colored widower with children
and does not in advance tell the
youngsters that he means to marry a
white woman. So Douglass is at
last immortal. It Sf ems that the ne
groes are more aroused about it than
the white people of Washington or
elsewhere. The colored ladies take
it as a slight if not an insult to thir
race and their beauty, and with dis
guifced friendship for the old bride
groom say this step will be 6ure to
i6juie him politically. But what
does a colored bridegroom at the age
of scventv -five with a new white wife
and a bank account of $200,000 care
for political honors or preferment?
By the time the honeymoon is over
Mr. Douglass will be about ready to
depart in peace, nor care about re
cording any more deeds except his
own.
Thi North American in discussing
the Chinese question, says, since the
news arrived from California to the
effect that the Hon. Denis Kearney
bad vacated the sand lots and set up
a peanut stand in more fashionable
quarter of San Francisco, the world
' had begun to sea some hope of peace
and ouist for John Chinaman. It
seems that as Kearney retires Cali
fomia's representatives in Congress
are making ready to cy-pcar before
the foot lights, with a d-rr.d for a
mere etrinent law than tint whirb.
made us the laughingstock of the
world. The old law does not hold
water, but Chinamen. They have
been leaking through its mashes
continually. .
It is safe enough to persecute
John. He has no vote. It may be
politically protltable to persecute
people who cannot vote, especially if
to do so will secure the votes of per
sons who are morally and mentally
inferior to the average John. It may
be profitable to-day. But what of
to-morrow ? How long do these
mousing politicians suppose the sen
sible people of these United States
will submit to tueh petty tricks as
this anti-Chinese movement certain
ly is ? Where, among whom, did it
originate ? Xot in places which will
bear the light, and not among peo
ple wb(.d lives 6mell sweet The
movement originated on a dunghill,
and it exhales the odors of a dung
hill. If any member cf Congress ii
weak enough to pursue thia absurd
persecution of a people who furnish
fewer cases for the courts and no
almshouse boarders than any race en
gaged in persecuting them, he is too
weak to sit in a law-making body.
This persecution arose among a class
in whose midst vice, pauperism and
crime run neck and neck. Some of
its originators have, tha manliness to
bo ashamed of it If we want to be
consistent, if wa want to avoid the
charge of creating diiEeullies in or

Chinese alone. They are here by
our invitation. We have invited all
peoples to come here and share in
ous prosperity. Let John alone.
Tired Out.
A REfORTZR of the Philadelphia
Record seeing nn advertisement, re
questing the service of a mesmeric
doctor, concluded to go around to
the k'jUri?, or number, where the
doctor was requested to call and
learn something of case and tho prac
tice of ihe mesmeric doctors. It
was an old gentleman who had ad
vertised for the doctor, but h had
been so treated that dav thut the re
porter was not permitted to see the
patient He was mistaken for a
mesmeric doctor, and the servants
in the house came near banging the
door in his face. The reporter 6ays :
'The old lady in charge of tho
house opened the front door about
(5 inches. She looked weary, nnd
she asked. Are you one of "em?
'-!?ca-,ise if yu arN there ain't no
u-e at all of goin' up. He's tired
out."
The reporter expressed his deep
regret at the fact and inquired mild
ly why he" was tired.
'Tt's been enough to tire the ser
vant girl and me all to pieces just
openin' this door, and it's a wonder
the poor old gentleman ain't dead
with all the talken' they've done to
him. Twenty seven by count six
teen men and eleven women have
c.ime here nace morning and every
one of em told him they could cure
him of every disease that ever wis.
and some of them wanted to begin
right off and rub him right there in
the parlor, the shameless things.
What is the matter with him ? Why,
janders and nothing else, which a
liver pill or two would cure, but he
won't take any medicine inside."
'Has he engaged any of tbeinyct?"
'No he hasn't because the second
one that called was a man who insist
ed on showin' him his mesmericness,
which he did by waviu' his hands a
round in the air before the old gen
tle man's face. While he was doing
that a woman doctor came and I, not
knowin' better, let her into the room
and she began to argue with the man
doctor about the right way to hold
1 is fingers while he was waving his
hands, and finally she got around
back of the old gentleman's chair aud
began rubbing his head, which was
bald, while at the same time tho man
doctor was woikiu' away in front like
like a crazy thing, waving his hands
around. The old getleman was grow
in' green in the face with the janders
they two was stirrin' up between 'em
in his liver, when I happened to
come into tne room ana ni-iae em
go away. He began to see, then,
how foolish he d been to advertise
and has spent the rest of the day
in exp'ainiu' to the other two dozen
that somehow he had changed his
mind, w liich most of em didn't care
about at all, for they went right on
talking to him about nerve centres
and magnetic aun-jlea and mesmeric
hvpnotisms and that kind of stuff
till I turned them all out and vou'll
have to let me shut the door before

Fifty Miners Killed.
Dejtvek, Col., Jan. 21. A terrible
explosion occurred on the Crested
Butte, Gunnison county, at I o clock
this morning, in the Crested Butte
coral mine. There were sixty-seven
men in the mine at the time of the
explosion. Of these, eleven who
were just cnteriug, were thrown back
by the force of the explosion and
rescued. The explosion was of such
force as to wreck the engine house,
which stood fully 100 feet from the
entrnce to the mine. - The sapposi
tion is that the explosion was caused
by a leak in the air compressor.
A Train iu a Herd of Antelopes.
The west-bound train between
Green river and Granger, on the Un

flock of 1.200 or 1,500 antelopes.
The snow was quite deep and drift
ed in places, and the antelopes were
running on the road bed, finding
that the easiest road to travel in,
When they were first encountered
many of them were killed, and the

be derailed unless it was slowed up.
decreased the speed.
The antelopes
i kept a short distance ahtd of the
engine, and were strung along the
road for a quarter of a mile. They
would occa6Mna.iy get some distance
from the engine end than they would
stop, turn around and wateh the
headlight until the engine was fairly
upon them. They delayed the train
half or tbee quarters of an hour.

left the camp with his rifle, for a

find him. They were unsuccessful
and returned to the camp about mid
night. Early in the morning of Jan

three miles from thecamp they found
Stafford in the firm embrace of a she
bear, and both were frozen. A knife
was sticking in the left fore shoulder
of the bear. A short distance away
a half grown cub, with a kuifo wound
in it3 heart, was discovered. The
guide said Stafford had attacked the
cub first, and was then set upon by

Bangor and told the story to the
young lady. She lost her reason
and is now in a desperate condition.
She will be sent to the Elmira Asy

In the Jaws of a Shark.
Alfetto. the Spanish diver, who
has been at work on the wreck of the
Atlanta, near Moiehead, thus speaks
of an adventure had by him a few
days ago : At the time I was at the
bottom of the sea, I was juct about
to signal to be drawn up for a mo
ment's rest, when I noticed a shad
owy body moving at some distance
above me and toward me. In a mo
ment every fish had disappeared, the
very crustaceans lry still upon tlie
sand and the cuttle iish scurried a
way as fust as they could. I was not
thinking tf da"ger, and my iirst
thought wan that it was the shadow
of a pausing boit. But suddenly a
feuliug of tenor seized me. I felt
impelled to the from something I
krew not what A vague horror
seemed grasping after me, such as a
child fancies when leaving u darken
ed room. By this time the shadow
had come nearer and taken shape.
It scarcely needed a glance to show
mo that it was a ninn Gilcr. and of the
largest size. Had I sigualed to be .
drawn up then it would have been i
certain death. All I could do was j
to remain still uutd it left. It lay j
ff twenty or twenty-live feet, just !
outside the rigging of the ship, its
body motionless, its fins barely Btir
liug the watsr about its gills.
It was a monster as it was, but to
add to the horror tho pressure of the
water upon my head made it appear
as if pouring lUmes from its eyes and
mouth, aud every movement of its
fins and tail seemed accou.panied by
a display of fireworks. I was sure
the fish was thirty feet long, and so
near that I could see its double row
of white teeth. Involuntarily I
shrunk closer to the side of tho ves
sel. But my first movement betray
ed my presence. I saw the shining
eyes fixed upon me: its tail quivered
as it darted at me like a streak of
light. I shrank closer to the side of
tbe ship. I saw it turn on one side,
its mouth open, and heerd the teeth
snap as it darted by me. It had
missed me, but only for a moment
The sweep of its mighty tail had
thrown me forward. I saw it turn,
balance itself, and its tail quivered
as it darted at me again. There was
no escape. It turned on its back as
it swooped down on me like a hawk
on a sparrow. The jaws opened and
the long, shining teeth grated .is
they closed on my mental harness.
It had mo. I could feel its teeth
grinding on my copper breastplate
as it tried to bite me in two, for, for
tunately, it had caught me just across
the middle, where I was best pro
tected. Having seized me it went
tearing through the water. 1 could
feel it bound forward at each stroke
of its tail. Had it not been for my
copper helmet my head would have
been torn off by tho rush through
the water. I was perfectly conscious,
but somehow I fult no terror at all.
There wa3 only a feeling of numb
ntrss. I wondered how long it would
be before those teeth would crunch
through and whether they would
strike first into my back or my breast.
Then I thought of Maggie and the
baby and wondered who would take
care of theia and if she would ever
kuow what had become of me. All
those thoughts passed through my
brain in au instant but in that time
the connecting air tube had been
snapped and my head seemed ready
to burst with pressure, while the
monster's teeth kept crunching and
grinding away upon my harness.
I hen 1 felt the cold water begin to
pour in and heard the bubble, bub
ble, bubble, as the air escaped into
tbe creatures month. I began to
hear great guns and to see fireworks
aud rainbows and sunshine and all
kinds of pretty things, then I thought
I was float jig away on a rosy sum
mer cloud, dreaming to the sounds
of sweet music. Then all became
blank. The shark might have eaten
me at his leisure and I never would
have been the wiser. Imagine my
astonishment then when I opened
my eyes on board this boat and sa
you fellows around me. Yes, sir, I
thought I was dead and ate nn, sure.
Alfetto was found by his comrades
a few minutes after the snapping of
me line, lie was picked up msensi
