A peculiar accident happened at
Merchants mine No. 2, the other day.
One of the mine horses ran away and
went into an old working filled with
water, where he floundered about un-
til he struck a deep place and was
drowned. This is another “happen-
stance” that will cause some of the
strikers to rejoice for want of better
sense.

that he may yet be restored to health
and vigor.

The Government has made arrange-
ments to send the noon time signals
from the conservatory at the Capital to
ships at cea by means of the wireless
telegraph. This will enable sea cap-
tains to correct their chronometers if
they happen to be too slow or fast. It
is daily growing more evident that the
wireless telegraph can be put to prac-
tical uses. A message has been’ sent
from Kansas city to Cleveland, Ohio, a
distance of 725 miles; while in Europe
one has been sent from Cornwall,
England, to Ancona, Italy, a distance
of 1,000 miles. Not even the Alps in-
terfered. One advantage of the wire-
less is that it dosen’t require poles on
the right of way. Every man may
have a station on his own farm if he
wishes.—Ex.

Some one asked a woman how it was
she kept her youth so wonderfully.
Her hair was snowy white, she was 80
years old, and her energy waning; but
she never impressed one with the idea
of age, for her heart was still young in
sympathy and interest. This was her
answer: “I knew how to forget disa-
greeable things. TI tried to master the
art of saying pleasant things. I did
not expect too much of my friends. I
kept my nerves well in hand, and. did
not allow them to bore other people.
I tried to find any work that came to
my hand congenial. 1 retained the
illusions of my youth, nnd did not be-
lieve ‘every man a liar’ and every wo-
man spiteful. I did my best to relieve
the misery I came in contact with, and
sympathized with suffering. In fact, I
tried to do to others as I would be done
by, and you see me in consequence
resping the fruits of happiness, and a
peaceful old age.”
