A RAILROAD TRAIN STORY. Boat lire Dade Lost His Chain],nirne uni How ike Uasseuavrs Urauk it. I was travelling west some years since, when the Honorable Bardolph Bottles invaded the sleeper I helped fill. Time, like justice, had dealt gently with sutler, soldier, statesman and railroad king. The snow of years was sprinkling the little hair and profuse beard left him. His waist had become traditionary, and his legs more slender than of old, but his form was yet erect, his movements active, his voice strong and hearty, and his eyes bright as ever. He greeted me with hearty shake and a merry laugh as he directed and aided in distributing his luggage. He had, among other things, a huge lunch basket and a case of cliampagne. As the day promised to be exceedingly hot, for it was in midsummer, he direct¬ ed the conductor of the sleeper *to take the bottles from the basket quietly and drop them in the ice cooler of the car. “Why, General,” I said, “you surely are not going to put those dirty bottles in the water the passengers have to drink ?” “Oh, Tom can wipe them off. Wipe ’em oft', Tom. That’s all right.” Tom left to execute this extraordinary order, deep and soon the General and I were in reminiscences of the past, for I had. known him for fourteen years, in and about the National Capitol, and al¬ ways found him exceedingly entertain¬ ing. As time wore on that morning I ob¬ served that the passengers of our sleeper were exceedingly thirsty and resorted continually further to tne cooler for water. I observed, after a time, that the women and children had flushed faces and brightened eyes, and that after a time they grew noisy. An old lady, weighing some two hundred, after a vain attempt to look at the end of her nose, settled back into a sleep, with her head thrown back, that opened her mouth, and not only started a heavy article of snore, but dropped a very fair article of “store teeth” in her lap. Four young men, evidently commercial travelers, engaged iu a game of poker, grew loud¬ ly hilarious at first, then got quarrel¬ some, and at last drew revolvers and were disarmed by the conductor and brakeman, amid shrieks of the women that were unusually loud. “Well,” said Bottles, “this is the crankiest car I have ever boarded. What, the blank is the matter with them, any¬ how?” The mystery was solved about noon. Bottles opened his lunch basket, and made a spread of cold quails, pickles, pate de foie gras, and other costly deli¬ cacies, and then sent the porter for a bottle of champagne. The man returned, looking as if he had seen tlie ghost of Guiteau. “General,” he said, in a stago whis par, “dere ain’t no champagne, sah.” “Why, what’s gone with it ?” “Well, you see, sah, de motion ob de cah, or ice, in the coolahs, hab done broke all the bottles, and dese ornary people have been drinkin’ youah cham¬ pagne all mawnin’, sah.” “Weil, I be darned,” said the Honor ■ble Bottles.—D onn Piatt.

The Story ot an Eye-Witness of (lie Collapse ot the City of Concepcion. There is at present stopping in this city an aged gentleman, who has spent the greater part of seventy-five years of an unusually adventurous life abroad. The gentleman's name is A. D. Holcomb and he is now on his way East to end his days, as he says, amid the scenes of his youth, after an absence of a quarter of a century. In view of the interest recently excited in earth¬ quakes in the United States, a reporter visited Mr. Holcomb and asked him to relate some of his remarkable experiences during South American “of shocks. destruction “I will of tell you,” said he, the the city of Concepcion. The day was a burning one. In the afternoon a slight shock of earthquake occurred, but noth¬ ing was thought of it. As night ap¬ proached the heat appeared to become more intense. I retired to my hammock early that night. I do not know how long I slept, but I was awakened by the cries of many people. I arose to find the city in confusion. I looked at my watch. It was half-past eleven. The people were preparing to leave the town and seek the highlands of the mountains. Great distress prevailed among families; members were missing and were sought The for with wails and lamentations. heat had become so that it was like sit¬ ting in an oven and undergoing a gradual baking. “ I remember I packed what availa bles I could fiud in my valise and pre¬ pared to join iu the general migration. But departure had been delayed too long. 1 had no sooner placed my foot upon the main street of the town than there came a distant rumbling from the west. It increased in sound till it re¬ sembled the approach of a band of horse¬ men over a wooden bridge. At the same moment the earth seemed- to me to rise up perpendicularly and crash against the sky. I heard the shrieks that went from the fleeing people as I was tossed like a bauble by the rocking earth. I recollect no more. When I recovered consciousness it was yet night and I heard-tbe groans of wounded people in agony all about me. Even as I opened my eyes the earth trembled underneath me with the resistless motion of the sea. “All that night I lay in that spot, agonized by fears and terrors indescrib¬ able. It was useless to move or attempt to do anything in the darkness. There were shocks of more or less severity every few minutes, and as each shiver passed I heard groans of pain and ex¬ pressions of fear on every side. I hailed the first flash of dawn in the east with a fervent prayer of [gratitude. like The sun rose over the Cordilleras a circular plate of brass and revealed a dreadful scene. The town of Concepcion lay in ruins and hundreds of its people were dead. Great fissures and openings in the earth were visible here and there, from which Volumes of gaseous matter poured forth. How many were swal¬ lowed up in the fissures and openings will never be known. “The suffering and destruction at the city of Concepcion was only a mue in comparison with what took place in other parts of the province. At Tel cahuana, the seaport of the province, some seven miles distant from Concep¬ cion, a tidal wave over forty feet in height rolled in from the ocean and del¬ uged the The place. followin'*^ Tljpnsands f the were shore swept was away. and of dead strewn with corpses masses fish.”— San Francisco Call. Monseignor Capel on Suicide. Monseignor Capel, in a Sunday ser mon, said ; “I hold that all men who lay violent hands upon themselves commit a crime. But, you may say, insanity is the cause of most of the suicides, and the victims arc not to blame for the deed. Lot us see what statistics show. lho pa8t t [ jree mon ths there have 1)eell 2G-:/ suicides in the United States.

It is ]ook at tbe matter hone8t]y> and £ point out the dangers b and pitfalls beaet h ( of his hearers, „ I( . ig fi0 natural 0 idealiz3 a of suicide that we are apt to forget that the dead Wfc re men and women like our se]veg _ Tbey are born and rea red like ug) are educated and become respected citizens. They come to middle life, or perhaps before it, and lay violent hands upon themselves. They forget their duty to family and friends and their ob¬ ligations to God. And what came to them may it not naturally come to us ? If they did this may we not do so also ? We all know that history repeats itself, and if we are walking the path of the suicide, if we are doing what he did, it is not at all unlikely that we may follow in his footsteps. Therefore, in discuss¬ ing this sub j ect I am dealing with a problem which is of interest to each one of us. “With the fact before us tbat insanity causes only a small part of the total number of suicides, and that trouble is responsible for the great majority, I come to the conclusion that there is much moral weakness among men. It is sad to see that a child of thirteen and the gray hairs of eighty-two are found in this catalogue of recent self-murder¬ ers. It shows that moral weakness be¬ gins early in life and lasts to the end.” The Great Scientist. —A great scien¬ tist, who Relieved in evolution, was strol¬ ling through a zoological garden and and stopped at the monkeys’ house. “My little fellow,” he said, addressing an ape, “are you aware of the fact that the human species is descended from such as yon?” “So far as yon are iudi vidnally concerned,” responded the ape, “yon must surely be related to us, if I may judge from your astounding famili¬ arity with our family secrets.” Moral: This fable teaches that important evi¬ dence often springs np from unexpected quarters.— Life, CONSUMPTION. lUUOr.TAUT TO THE ri'BI.IC as WELL AS THE MEDICAL PROFESSION. Hall's Journal of Health, referring to Con¬ sumption, makes the following important " statement: usually begins with slight, . “Consumption morning, then a going to dry cough in the on bed, getting more and more frequent, with more and more phlegm, increasing breath, debility, and thinness of flesh, shortness of quickness of pulse. In fa al eases its average course is about two years'; hence the import¬ ance of arresting the disease at as early a stage as possible, an 1 tho sooner rational means are employed for this purpose the greater the chance of success. The disease is owing to an irritation commencing in tlie throat and extending to tile lungs,so that their action is interfered with, and the blood does not receive sufficient oxygen to purify it. The most marked sign of lung disease is emacia¬ tion: and the most positive indication of re¬ turning health is incr< a-e in weight. Hea'th, and So sjleaks Hall's Journal of we may add that in desperate cases, troubles and, in fact, in all cases of Consumption, immediate or relief of the throat and lungs, may be obtained and a permanent cure effected by. tho use of Dr. Win.

Did Not Get It. The of . popular , city .. clergymen . wives are often supplied, it is said, with "pin money” by their husbands’ wedding fees. But the wife of a rural minister, ’ especially one ^ living ‘Out tita West, »» often finds that nothing remains of the fee af ter the husband has paid for the hire of tho buggy in which he drove to the bride’s house. Tho following story il lustrates how both the expectations of wife and husband are sometimes blighted; A young western farmer appeared at the parsonage one morning, nervous and bashful. After the usual tell-tale eva sion, he made known the real object of his visit. “You see. Mister Preacher,” said he, “me an’ Sallie Toodles have about-er, that is—I mean er—well, you see— we’ve fixed it all up to git married, and we sorter wanted you to tie the knot, if agreeable. norepahle ft’s It s tn to ho be at nt dosn Tnsh TnndW loonies house next Tuesday night. I reckin wo kin count on you, eh ?” “Y-yes,” said the minister. “I see. How far is it to Mr. Toodles’ residence ? “Oh, about fourteen mile. That’s aotliing to stand back fur. Guess yer’ve -jot a rig ?” "I have not; but I could hire a horse and buggy, I suppose.” “Sartin, sartin. We kin count on you, then ?” “Yes, I’ll come. Tuesday night?” “But,” continued the fellow, shifting uneasily in his chair, “p’raps I’d ought to bo square, an’ tell yon somethin’ about the pay. You see, I ain’t got no big lot of cash, an’ I’ve got to buy lots of things; honsekeepin’s costly fun, you know Know. An All’ ma me an’ an Sal Hat we we thonoht tnougUt likely you’d be willin’to do the job an’ take yer pay iu good coon-skins.” The proposition made the fourteen-, miles’drive in a hired buggy seem less desirable to the poo, ottafetor. B ; * thinking that the coon-skins could easily be turned into cash, he consented to the arrangement. When he told hih wife, he remarked that a “coon-skin would be a good reminder of the frank¬ ness and honesty of the industrious young too, fellow I shall not T like accept in muei> ly.tiff® of a fee. 1 ” so After tlie ceremony had been per¬ formed, the minister, as he prepared to start for home, intimated to the happy bridegroom that there was room in the buggy for the coon-skins. “Well, now, you see, Mr. Preacher,” was the reply, “I ain’t kotched them coons yit. But I’ll make it all square with you. I’ve got two mighty likely pups, and I ’low to ketch some coons soon’s the pups git big enough. ” Tho disappointed minister lost his ex pected fee, meagre as it was, and lost al the samo time something of his con fidence in the “honesty” of the young man. The last he deplored more that he did the first, l’AMB. “So President Arthur is going marry Miss Tillie Frehugbuyaen ?” ob served Miss De Silva. “Yes, poor tiling ! how sorry I am for her,” replied Mias Badger, sympatheti¬ cally. “How so?” “The papers have all published her age.” “The Slough of Ilrspoitdeney 99 in which you arc; wal!<.wni{r, on account oJ some of those diseases peculiar roVibed to of you. tho ruadame, and which have you rosy hue of health, and made life a burden to easily get out o'.
