Inspectors' Superstition. From the Austin (Nev.) Reveille. The Tuscarora lieview says that the first appearance cf a clergyman in Tus carora was signalized by the burning of Grand Prize hoisting-works: and that on Sundayiiftst tbe-Rev. S. Kelly preach ed in that cainp and the next day the Navajo' Company discharged forty-two miners. It is an old superstition that preachers bring bad luck to a mining camp, and that with the advent of church es and ministers good times depart. The mention of this fact recalls a circum stance which happened in that connec tion in White Pine, in the early and flush days of that district. Red Frank Wheeler and Billy Wake field kept lhe store" of the town of Ham- ilton, the establishment combining in itself store, saloon, hotel, post-office and express offico, and consequently being a place of popular resort. One day, atter the mail and express had been distributed and the crowd which usually thronged to the store on the arrival of the stage had somewhat thinned out, a prospector sat on a barrel reading the Reveille, which in those days carried the freshest news to White Pine, as all communication was via Austin. Seated on the box beside the prospector was a meek, oily looking per sonage, evidently a new arrival, for he wore broadcloth, instead of the rough cos tume affected by the inhabitants of anew mining camp. The prospector seemed to be reading his p.iper with deep interest, when, sud denly, he gave a start that nearly upset the barrel he was sitting on, and, as he ripped out a great, double-barreled oath a hush came over the room, and all pres ent turned their eyes toward him. "What is the matter, my friend?" said the stranger, touchingMm on the shoul der. "Matter! The matter is that the camp's as good as gone up the flume, and every mother's son of us may jest as well pack up our traps and light out. That's what's the matter? Just listen to this." And then, while a deep silence reigned and every man in the room bent his head forward to catch the words, the prospec tor read from the lieceille a statement that one Rev. Mr. Nicholl intended short ly to leave Austin for White Pine, to or ganize a congregation and establish a church. A look of horror came over the features of every miner in the room, and Frank Wheeler was visibly agitated as the reading was concluded but the stran ger was evidently mystified and asked for an explanation. Just then, Uncle John Gray walked into the store, and re cognizing the stranger, introduced him to Frank Wheeler as the Rev. Mr. Nicholl and then the miner attempted to apolo gize. He sLuttered, and hesitated, and finally blurted out: "I'll be dog-goned, old pard, if I'd have said a word agin preachers if I'd knowed you was the preacher feller, and I wish I may land in h1 in a minnit if I inteaded any offense. Come up and take a drink and call the thing squar'." The preacher came up," and as the boys and the preacher stood at the bar, each with his glass in his hand awaiting the signal, "Here's to us," the prospector said to the preachers "You're a sociable sort of a cuss for a preacher after all, and may not bring any bad luck to the camp, but leastways you fellers ought to give us miners a chance, and not ring in your preachin' and start your churches till the camp gits kinder settled like. Here's luck." And then the preacher and the boys said: "Here's luck!" and there was a rattle of glasses on the bar and the con versation turned into other channels. But Mr. Nicholl had an ace-full beaten at poker that night, and left for Austin next morning, and the church was not "started." That Girl of Miae. Now really my audacity in telling you about that girl of mine is astonishing. It is an insult to the numerous per cent age of the fair sex who have taken an in terest in me. My remarks should be ''those girls, etc." But space will not per mit. Want of space crowds out thousands of brilliant thoughts of would-be authors. Will there be a want of space in the next world? I fear so especially if we take up our abode in that place paved with good intentions. But I am wandering from that girl of mine, and it is not pleasant thus to wan der unless it be just before a dollar and a half supper, after a delightful dance, when I quietly disappear (to chew cloves), then as quietly reappear in a half hour. "Darling will you sup?" "Why, Ned, you are too late every bodv is through." I then "O pshaw!" but by this little artifice escape owing for the suppers. We are back to our girl now to pro ceed. She had her little peculiarities most girls have. Her father had his ditto. Most girls* fathers have. It was the first time I had ever been courting. I was verdant, verybut I had pluck. Pluck is good as far as it goes, but when backeo against muscle it doesn't go far enough. I was quite gushing and quite poor yes, I believe that's what they call it when a fellow's not well lined with tin. Well, I burnished up what brass I had, and went in. I got into the squeezer, and was aided out. I literally proposed to the whole family in turn. First the mother of that girlit's a good thing, you know, to stand well with your mother-in-law. I flattered her. She flattered me. Then I asked papa's permission. He growled out:~ "Can you support her?" "I can try." "Socan a soap-boilerHum! N G. Go talk to hershe's a girl of sense." I went to her. I found she was a girl of cents, or dollars I may. say, for as I be gan to speak she dropped Her eyelids and looked timidly down. "My love," I whispered, "shall we cast our lots together, and glide unitedly through life?" Said she: "Ned, tell me how much your lot are worth, and then I'll say whether I will glide or not." "Miss Cornell, I don't wish to buy you," answered. She slid from my encircling arm. nd reached the door. "Putting her head out she called: "Pa!" Once was more than enough. That man, her "Pa," must have had something very heavy on bis soul. I felt my coat rising in the back of my neck with per- suasive force. It was the liveliest waltz I ever danced. The girl stood at the par lor blinds singing: He flies through the air with the greatest of ease He looks liko_a inulo on the flying trapeze," as I made a "carom on the doorstep, and drew a chalk-line with mv nose clear across the sidewalk. The results of that day were fatal. It completely spoiled Miss Cornell's chan ces of ever becoming that wife of mine. The Font UMld. It was a Christmas night, and from his high northern home, Avhere he sits alone on a glittering throne by the side of his father, King Winter, the Frost Child descended into the milder zone to roam through the cities of the world and gaze in at windows draped for the holi days. Though he came from the coldj he was not cold. Over the yellow of his hair he wore a coronet that shone with the eternal brightness of a diamond, Two luminous riugs rose to the level of his crowned head like the pinions of the cherubim in the pictures of old time. In his hand he bore a wand that he had brought out of his father's realm, and as he waved-it before him the air filled with myriads of frost flakes the little laughing rivulet ceased her dancing and became a sheet of pearl. Fine, etherial transparent as a veil, the breath of the Frost Child diffused itself and made an atmosphere about him as he flew. The branches of the cypress showed a glitter, ing coat of mail when he went by, and reeds, grasses and tender shrubs glittered beneath the treasure he scattered. He stopped before the palace of a great lady, i will tell her some tales of my father's kingdom," he said and, forth with he fell to tracing blossoming ferns and glowing stars over all her window panes. On all her laurel bushes he hung wreaths of frost-flowers, aud decorating her house and grounds he wrought all night, but in the morning vanished away, so that when the lady asked "Where is the exquisite artist?" no one was able to tell. He stood at last within a large and brilliant city. From many a church spire, silver bells rang in the happy Christmas Eve. Waxen tapers sparkled on the altars and windows. The^shop windows flashed with forms of costly beauty, a blaze of jewels. Every-where were merry groups of men, women and children hurrying to and fro. Christmas trees showed through half-open doors, and gayety and good will filled the streets. The Frost Child saw some wanderers that he did not like but being a Frost Child and a sou of King Winter's he could not understand that they were poor and suffering, and blamed them for their sadness while all around were glad. Flashing in his jewels, unseen himself, he mingled with the throng playing many a trick, touching with his wand the beard of some young man and frinaiug it with white. On the cheek of beauty he froze the tear ere it could fall he tingled the finger-tips that were wrapped in sealskin, and gave many a child a slap on the already too red cheek. With his wand he drove some old men and women fiercely over the ice of the pavements. He stop ped to gaze in at the windows, always leaving his pictures, stars, and ferns blos soming all delicately fair on the smooth table of crystal. At last he waited before a window well lighted in a shop of the second or third grade, very pretty, but mostly in it Avere displayed articles of use. This child could not understand pain, hunger or cold. No emotion had ever kindled within or warmed the heart of the Frost Child. A beautiful Italian girl was looking in wist fully at a tippet of gown, a bright red flannel petticoat, a hood and. a pair of shoes. The extreme fever of exhaustion had settled like a red rose leaf on each cheek her feverish lips were slightly par ted her breathing was hurried tn quick. A soiled bouquet was in her hand, the last remnant of her day's labor. The Frost Child breathed upon It it shriveled and collapsed. A few small coins were in her hand also but not enough to buy shoes, tippet or hood. Unseen himself, the Frost Child drew yet nearer to her heart his coronet of brightness touched her bosom. She shivered a little, trembled, and walked up. The Frost Child followed, now near and now afar off, but ever keep ing her in sight. The two passed on up the winding way of the city. "She is more beautiful than the bright ness of my father's throne," whispered the Frost Child to himself, "I Mill steal her away, and she shall be with me and my fi ller alone in that solitary kingdom of light." "I can go no farther," sighed the Italian girl "I am weary and must sleep." She sat upon the great cathedral's step, and laying one arm on the next step above, she rested on it her weary head. The jubilant notes of the organ exult antly sang the songs of May and the stars. They seemed to flood the church, and issu ing therefrom to surge and rail above her drooping form like billows of fire for she was no longer cold. The Frost Child stood beside her unseen but the shining nimbus of his person enveloped both, Languor and sweetness, ease and rest possessed her. So fell the Italian girl in to a long, long dream. The gay crowd of the church passed outgirls in dresser of gleaming satin, and matrons in velvets and diamonds but none tarried to see the girl who had fallen asleep on the fair Christmas night, The Frost Child waited by her side more luminous his starry eves grew through the darkness of the Christ mas night, and sparkled like blades of fine Damascus, the coronet set in the yel low brightness of his hair. He waved his wand three times above the head of the sleeping girl her form shriveled, and only a little bit of pale white clay was left in her place, for the wraith of the Italian flower girl, out of the nimbus that snr rounded both, arose fairer than any Christ mas light, and with the Frost Child float ed away.New York Graphic. .aca. Several children were feeding a pet bear with corn at Austin, Texas. An ear was dropped out of his reach and a little girl handed it to him. The bear sportively pulled her to him, when a house dog, believing the chid in danger, sprang upon the bear. Bruin then car ried the child to the further part of the hogshead in which he slept returning to fight the dog, under the impression that the dog would hurt the child. A party of darkies tried to protect the child from her other protectors, but the little one did not escape until her mother had killed both bear and dog with a musket. That "Life of Christ." Now Tork Word, Deo 29. Said Mr. Albert H. Wright to a WorM reporter last evening: "I have been con sidering for some timein fact, ever since the Messrs. Ford & Co. were in difficulties two years agothe advis ability of purchasing the right and title of Beochor's 'Life of Christ.' I examined the contract and found it of great value. I am assaciated in the speculationfor it is nothing but a business trnasacticn with another gentleman whose name I am not at liberty to give at present. I tried to purchase the property at private sale and, when I found I could not, gave instructions to Mr. Bitter to bid as high as $2,500 for me. I was a great surprise to see that Mr. Beecher's friends did not come to the rescue. I should think the property ought to be worth to him at least $5,000 to $10,000. There was every opportunity given them to protect them selves, as the sale was a perfectly legiti mate and open one. What I wanted was the contract, and delivered. I have advised my associate to make a friendly proposition to Mr. Beecher, and that is what probably will be done. It I owned the contract myself I chould go to Mr. Beecher and say,4 Friend Beecher, I have got your contract you have been paid for what you have not done. Now, if you will finish the work to the best of your talent, there is money in the opera tion for both of us. If you refuse, why there will be trouble, because if a con tract is good for anything I intend to test it to the best of my ability, and by 'force of law if necessary. My only object is to make a profit, and I think I see a very fair one in prospect.' It has been reported that Mr. Wright will bring suit to recover the $10,000 cash paid to Mr. Beecher on the contract, and further sue him for a large sum in damages for breach of contact unless he will finish the work. He disclaims any intention, however, to annoy Mr. Beecher and has not retained ex-Judge Fullerton as it was reported he had, to bring any suit against him. Honor In His Own Land. Savs Comley in his recently-issued work, The History of New York State, "The day Las passed when the benefactors of humanity were allowed to live in ignominious povertytheir sacrifices, their labors, unrecompensed. To day, the benefactors of the peoplethe men who devote their lives and energies to the in terests of hujpanitythese are the men whom the world delights to honor, and whom it re wards with princely fortunes. As an earnest worker forthe welfare of his fellow-mcn, Dr. R. V. Pierce has won their warmest svmpathy and esteem. "While seeking to be their ser vant only, he has become a prince among them. Yet the immense fortune lavished up on him by a generous people he hoards not, but invests in the erection and establishment of institutions directly contributive to the pub lie.good, the people "thus realizing, in their liberal patronage, anew meaning to that beau tiful Oriental custom of casting bread upon the waters. Noted iu both public and private lift for his unswerving integrity and all those sterling virtues that ennoble manhood, Dr. Pierce ranks high among those few men,whose names the Empire Stale is justlv proud to in scribe upon her roll of honor.

While Dr. Pierce's genius and energy have won for him so envi able a position on the records of a nation, hav ing been elected Senator by an overwhelming majority,his justly celebrated Household Rem edies have gained for him a yet more desirable place in the hearts of a grateful people.
