Death of Charles nsborn.

Charles Osborn, the brakoman injured on the Big Four last week, died at 12 o'clock Saturday night, never having regained consciousness. K&tfTiB wife, mother and sister were with him at the time of his death and their lamentations were most pitiful. The remains were taken to Jamestown Monday morning for burial.

Cook Whitby's English 3-Ring Circus, Menangerie and Hippodrome, which exhibited here yesterday, gave the utmost satisfaction and delight to its swarm of visiters. This show more nearly realizes the highest ideal of all that a circus can be than any we have ever attended. Tne riding was superb, he

created great excitement,

elicited tumultuous applause, while every act out af the hundred given appeareb the best while you were looking at it, or, in other words, there was not a poor feature in the performance, which is more than we can say of any circus that has ever visited Pittsburgh.

The parade made in ths morning was a revelation of wealth and splendor that fairly daztled the beholders. The cost of such a display must be appalling, the dene and wagons being covered ||with ivory and glittering gold, every horse a thoroughbred and all animals richly caparisoned in silk and satin—a solid mile of them altogether. The balloon ascensions took place in the afternoon, and, combined with the Bblendid sharpshooting and other free exhibitions, vastly pleased the people who were just "looking around."

In fact, everything about this immente organization seems perfect, the uniformly courteous and quiet deportment of all employes were widely commented upon and created the most favorable impression.

We beg to acknowledge courtesies extended by Messrs. Cook & Whitby and their representatives, and hope to again have the pleasure of attending so great an exhibition.—Pittsburgh Press.

Dickey's Drop.

Richard Allen bobbed up in the police court, Monday morning, wearing a Bad face and a badly bruised head. Richard eomplained that he had been robbed of $11 in cash and a gold watch, and wanted the police to recover the articles together with interest on the money. Allen dropped into town Sunday, and by night was bathing himself in Black Hills beer. He had a lovely time nursing and caressing bushy-headed chippies and thought they were about the most sociable young ladies he had ever met. It was dark when he started for town, and he hadn't proceeded a great distance when some rude person whacked him over the head with a club, thereby Bending him to the land of nod. When he regained consciousness he found he had been robbed and was greatly depressed thereby. While Dickey will never see his cash or watch again, it ought to teach him a lesson that will make his money well spent.

Sunday Fires.

Sunday morning about 10 o'clock the fire department was called to the residence of Henry Alfrey, corner Water and Jefferson streets. The kitchen roof had taken Ore from a defective flue but the blaze was extinguished with the garden hose before the department arrived. Another alarm was sent in from the Monon depot about noon. The flames proved to be in the magnificent dogweod front mansion of Madame Overstake and when the department arrived a scene of great excitement prevailed. A half dozen home made blondes attired in gaudy rod mother hubbards were setting the atmosphere crazy with agonizing shrieks while the festive bed bug had taken refuge in a jimpson weed that grew by the little side door. The ravishing flames wore finally subdued and the entire loss will not reach over $1.65, fully covered by insurance.

Don't You Believe It.

The report circulated last week by some malicious scoundrel to the effect that Darter & Larsh had stopped buying wheat for the present was as infamous as it was false. Any person who will take the pains to drive within a block of their elevator will soon be convinced that the lie was made from whole cloth. This firm is doinpr a tremendous business and is running its machinery almost fifteen hours every day. It is the busiest place in the county beyond doubt.

Struck By Liehtnine.

Saturday night during a storm the residence of Henry Reltinger, about a mile west of New Ross, was struck by lightning. Everything in the house was badly shaken up, the plastering up stairs being nearly all torn off the chimney racked and the shingles torn off. Tiio occupants were badly stunned but cecovered sufficiently to extinguish the flames. The house was insured in the Hartford Insurance Company.

And you get it, with this Remedy—there's a cure that is perfect and permanent. The worst chronic cases, no matter of how long standing, yield to its mild, soothing, cleansing and healing properties. Cold in the Head needs but a few applications. Catarrhal Headache, and all the troubles that come from Catarrh, are at once relieved and cured.

Tou can count on something else, too—$500 in cash. You can eount on it, but it's more than doubtfuL whether you earn it.

The proprietors of Dr. Sage's Remedy, in good faith, offer that amount for an incurable case of Catarrh. Don't think that you have one, though.

They'll pav you, if they can't cure you. That's certain. But they can cure you.. That't just about as certain, too.

Can you ask more?

The Experience of Illu With and a Uookseller.

Last spring, because my wife was all run down and the children needed outdoor life, we hired a little place in the country. Among other inconveniences there was a hen-house on the place, which inspired my wife with the notion to keep poultry. She bought a lot of Shanghais and Brahmas, and one day as I was going to the city, she asked me to get a book about raising chickens. "Because," she said, "It will be so nice to have our own broilers in Sep* tember."

That evening, on my way to the ferry, I stopped at a bookstore and inquired for "The Snare of the Fowler," which was then being advertised. The man looked about on his shelves for awhile and then came back emptyhanded. "I'm sorry," said he, "but we're all out just at present of "The Snare." Here's another book, though, as good, if not better."

I looked at the little volume. It was full of pictures and plans and receipts and calculations of profits, but it was the title that took my fancy—"How to Make Money With a Few Hens," by James Pennybacker.

It appears hardly worth while to go into the details of our summer's experience. I bought the book, but we didn't have any broilers in September.

Any amateur cliicksn fancier can put you in the way of getting further information if you think it worth while to pursve the subj'ect. It is coming on warm weather now, and some of you—as a chancre, perhaps, from Newport or Narragansett Pier— may be so far misled as to take a furnished farm. To all such I recommend further inquiry, unless, indeed, this little essay suffices.

AN ARIZONA WONDER.

A Blluiug Expert Discovers a NatONt Bridge of Chalcedony.

A mining expert, sent to investigate some Arizona properties for Denver capitalists recently, returned and reports the finding of a most remarkable natural bridge formed by a tree of agatized wood, spanning a canon for-ty-five feet in width. The tree has at some remote time fallen, when it became imbedded in the silt of some great inland sda or mighty water overflow. The silt became in time sandstone, and the wood gradually passed through the stages of mineralization until it is now a wonderful tree of solid agate.

In after years water washed and ate away the sandstone until a canon forty-five feet in width has been formed, the flinty-like substance of the agatized wood having resisted the erosion of the water flow. Fully fifty feet of the tree rests on one side and can be traced, but how far its other end lies buried in the sandstone cannot be determined without blasting away the rock.

The trunk visible above the canon varies in size from four feet to three feet in diameter. Where the bark has been broken and torn away the characteristic colors of jasper and agate are seen. To the naked eye the wood is beautiful. Under a microscope or miner's magnifying glass the brilliancy of the colorings are clearly brought out in all their wondrous beauty.

What's In a Name.

A lady in Ilong Kong engaged a Chinese cook. When the celestial came, among other things she asked his name. "My name," said the Chinaman, smiling, "is Wang Hang Ho."* "Oh, I can't remember all that," said the lady. "I will call you John." Next morning when John came up to get his orders he smiled all over, and looking inquiringly at his mistress asked: "What is your name?" "My name is Mrs. Melville Langdon." "Me no inemble all that," said John. "Chinaman he no sayey Missus Membul Landon—I call you Tommy."

Afraid of Thantler.

The lobster is greatly in dread of thunder, and when the peals are very loud numbers of them drop their claws and swim away for deeper water. Any great fright may also induce them to drop their claws. IJut new claws begin at once to grow, and in a short time are as large as the old ones, and covered with hard shells. The lobster often drops its shell, when it hides until the new shell is hard enough to protcct it.
