Monday Evening June 98, 1880. A GIGANTIC PULL-SACK,. Oshkonh Advocate. An interMtinff experiment wa« tried here Monday, which created intense ex citement among the inhabitants of thift ijuiet town. A modeflt mechanic of thin )laee, wlio has felt the aggravation of jeing "jiiHt in time to be too late," obtained permiiwion of the railroad company to test what he calls his gigan tic pull back. The female portion of the comtnnnity were disappointed when they found it in no wise related to the mysteries of the modiste's art. The in ventor had the end of the puU-bockimnk in the ground several feet between the rails at the station, and securely anchored by bolts and screws. The pull-back consists of an immense elasis cable (made at the rubber-works here) which was run along the ties under cover of iron tubing, to a distance of 1,200 feet at which point the cable ended in a big iron hook. The hook was poised above a wire °ng sunk into the ground, which con nected with the telegraph battery at the station by wire. The purpose of the pull-back is, as the reader has by this time snrmised, to catoli and draw bock to the station any train that happens to for get something or for some belated pas senger that stands "cursing the fate that made him late," etc. The initial test was made, as stated, on Monday, in the pres ence of a large gathering of the curious townsfolks. The whole scheme was in tended to be kept seeret. but of course the planting of the cable aroused rumors that spread until the public mind was at a high pitch of curiosity. When it was finally divulged what was the intent and purpose of the scheme, people laughed, shrugged their shoulders and said: "The man is crazy." Others said: "Perhaps he is, but give him a show." The inventor volunteered to take the part of the belated passenger "for this oocasion only," and just as the II210 express pulled out for the next sta tion and was gaining headway at every "chew" of the engine, the excited me chanic came tearing down the street, with his coat tails Hying and his face flushed. The crowd cheered and laugh ed. It was nevertheless an excitmr moment. He shouted to the telegrap operator to make the connection. The current flashed over the wire and set loose the spring which threw up the iron hook. The crowd heard the clamp of the iron and watched with bated breath the result. The hook had caught the lust car sure enough, and the big black cable was seen to stretch out of the iron tubing like a serpent out of its hole. The train soon came to the end of the rope and then came the remarkable re sult of the whole scheme. The speed of the train gradually -slackened, then fi nally stopped, and then the cable with prodigious power began to redeem its tension and draw back with increasing speed the captured train. The astonish ment of the crowd was unbounded, and as the train rattled back to the station like a truant child brought home, the cheers and yells were deafening. The engineer smiled grimly and said: "I guess we've forgot something." The inventor chuckled and looked happy, stepped on board, aud the train sped away again to make up the lost thirty seconds occasioned by the gigantic pull back. There area thousand and one reasons why such an invention would be oi incalculable service to railway com panies. Collisions can be avoided, mistakes corrected, tardy conductors restored to their charge, and "wild' locomotives prevented from galloping over the rails and scaring whole counties into fits by their Comanche yells. SITTING BULL'S WAR BONNET. Chicago Times, June 2ith. Sitting Bull himself is still on the oth er side of the Canadian line, but his "war bonnet" is now in this city, in the possession of Mr. A. Hcenigsberger, at No. 152 Ohio street, who has recently re turned from the far northwest. A fash ion reporter for the Times inspected this pattern of aboriginal headwear on last evening. The bonnet proper and its ap pendage measure about nine feet in length. It is a hideous thing. The bon net is adorned with eagles' heads, sur mounted by a lofty crest or plume of eagle feathers. The appendage consists of a flowing band of buckskin thickly studded with engle feathers, the stems of which are wrapped with red flannel. Some of these feathers are nearly three feet in length. This bonnet was worn by Sitting Bull during the fight which end ed in the extermination of the heroic but ill-starred Custer and his four hundred white braves. The feathers were plucked from eagles killed by the famous Sioux chief himself. The bonnet was purchas ed from Sitting Bull by Mr. Charles P. Smith, post trader at Poplar Creek agen cy and Woodv mountain. The priee paid was $30. Mr. Hcenigsberger left the Poplar Creek agency, which is situated less than one hundred miles from Sitting Bull's camp, a week ago last Sunday. He states that several thousand Indians belonging to Sitting Bull's band are en cafuped the vicinity of Poplar Creek agency and Fort Buford. They were starving north of the line, and were obliged to come to the agency and ask for food, which had been issued to them by the agent upon surrender of their ponies and firearms. Some of the Indi ans have refused to make such surrender, and as they are mostly young bucks and spoiling for a fight, Mr. Hcenigsberger thinks it not improbable that they will engage in hostilities before the end of the summer. During his stay at Poplar creek on-Indian chief named "Long Dog" with an escort of forty braves from Sit ting Bull's camp, made their advent one day in a noisy and menacing manner,and demanded a council with the government authorities. Finding that the "bluff" game wouldn't work, they begged a little sugar and tobacco, and departed across the line quite meekly and mildly. to Into ,,,i- iiMhsU.

Louis, Juno 25.—llayden Brown, who murdered his wife's mother over year ago, was hanged at HuutavUle, Mo„ this afternoon in tue presence of a great crowd. Brown ascended the scaffold at :10 p. m., and after religious services by Ber. Mr. Ettington of the Methodist church, he stepped forward and made uite a speech to the crowd in attendance, "e said: a: If you will keep still a minute I will talk to you in regard to my poor dead child and wife. To every man, womau and child I want to say that I have noth ing against you and hope you all have foigiven me. May Ood Save mercy to day on me and all of you/ I stand to-day on the gallows to pay the penalty of my crime to the young, many of whom I recognize, I want to say I saw them riding out here to-day drunk. I have done the same thing mysell, and you see where I am. He asked to be buried with his wife and child. In his hand he held bouquet and asked if there was a lady who would see that it was put in his wife's dear little hands. I want, he said, to see who will do it. Many hands were raised by the women, aud the cry "Here, here," came from every quarter. Brown asked all the relatives of his wife who were present to raise their hands in token of forgiveness. One of the dead woman's sisters was present and raised her hand. BroWn said: "Thank God, there is one." The culprit then stepped on the trap, the black cap was put on, the rope ad justed, the trap was sprung and poor Brown's soul was launched on the sea of eternity at 1:28 p. m. His neck was broken and he died in about ten minutes without a struggle. BIS WIFE TERRIBLE DEATH. Kansas City Times, June 23. The terrible ending of Sue Brown, wife of Hade Brown, the murderer, who blew her brains out on Monday night, expect ing to meet her husband on the other side of the great unknown before yester day's sun was up, was the principal topic of conversation througeout the city yesterday. In all its bearings it was the most sensational and terrible affair which ever occurred in Kansas City, and thous ands yesterday canvassed the dark deed in all its bearings. "Hade Brown is a coward," exclaimed a well known official in mentioning the matter, "else he would have swallowed the poison ere the news of his wife's death had come to him. Mark my words, his craven heart will quail long before he meets the scaffold on Friday. That terrible morbid curiosity which ever attracts a crowd when the dead are mentioned, caused hundreds of men, women and children to visit Welden's yesterday, in the hopes that they might feast their eyes on the corpse of the poor woman who quietly sank down and Bent her soul into eternity so suddenly, surely and so womanlike. On Monday afternoon, after watching her husband through the grates for hours, she went to Marshal Ligget and thanked him cordially for his Kindness London Daily Telegraph. If wp may believe the "Princess Olgo," who has just published an amusing work upon Russian life and manners, a lucra tive branch of the Moscow undertakers' business is the repair and hire of coffins. The dealings in these necessary articles are, for the most part, in other Euro pean capitals, confined to one permanent and final transaction. But it would ap pear that many of the wealthy Musko vite raskolniki purchase their coffins during their lifetime and keep them at home, where they are used by careful housewives as repositories for groceries and other edible stores. The Russian rat, however, liaa a sweet tooth, with which he industriously gnaws his way into these grim receptables of sugar, raisins and spices, doing such damage to them in the course of his forays that they are constantly in need of repair. The "hiring department" of the estab lishments above alluded to is chiefly supported bv widows of merchants aud trademen, who tui iftly house the mortal remains of their"Jear'departed" in cheap deal coffiins, but hire tor the funeral ceremony magnificent "caskets," richly decorated with velvet and gilding, in which the plain wooden boxes actually destined for interment are enclosed. At the churchyard gate the accomodating undertaker takes back his splendid shell, which has fulfilled its purpose by con ferring distinction upon the belief of it& temporary occupant during its transport through the public streets and the de ceased raskolnik is consigned to the grave as inexpensively as is compatible with due homage. to the opinion of the Russian Mrs. Grundy. tnjnn'c Hi-*'lit It. Among all the disagreeable consequen ces that follow the decay of the teeth, an impure breath must be the most niortiiy ing and unpleasant to its posessor, and it is the most inexcusable and offensive in society and yet the cause of it may easi ly be'removed by cleansing your teeth daily with that justly popular dentrifrice, Fragrant SOZODOXT. It purities and sweetens the breath, cools aud refreshes the mouth, and gives a pearl-like ap pearance to the teeth. Gentlemen who indulge in smoking should cleanse their teeth with SOZODONT, as it removes all unpleasant odors of the weed.
