The Great Eloetrleian Has an Anins ins Experience on the Plains. At a dinner party at the Presidio the other evening, one of the officers related some anecdotes of Thomas Edison. "He is the most unpractical man in the world," said the Captain. "I remember well the summer of '78, . 1 . . 1 1- r J 1 the season ot the total eclipse 01 the sun. A lot of scientific men were there Prof. Trouvelot, of Cambridge; Harkncss, the well known astronomer; John L. Draper, and many more of them besides a number of army people, who went up from some of the forts to a little station on the Union Pacific, called Separation, to view the phe nomenon. "Edison was one of the party, and they made observations, drew j sketches, took photographic im pressions, and when the eclipse was over compared notes as to the sensa tions they had experienced. Draper gave it as his opinion that if it were possible for it to continue numbers of people would commit suicide, and it would leave generally a bad effect on the digestion and the nervous system. " "Edison, you know, is quite deaf, and the strangest thing was, during an hour or so of the densest partial eclipse, he recovered his hearing to almost a normal degree. They were up there a couple of days before the event occurred, and we officers had our rifles with us, and hunted an telope and deer. Edison was imbued with the sportsman spirit, and handing one hundred dollars to a man, saul: uet me a gun, win you?' The man brought the gun, which had cost seventy-five dollars, and handed him the change, which he returned, saying: 'Here, I want sonic powder, and things: get me the balance in ammunition. I s'pose twenty-five dollars' worth is about all I can carry, isn't it?' "Every one laughed at the picture of Edison carrying twenty-five dol lars' worth of cartridges about his person. "They had a stuffed jack rabbit at the station, which scm? clever telegraph man had prepared for the befooled emigrants to shoot at. "This was set rigidly up in the sage-brush, and pointed out to Edi son, who had never shot at any real game before. He deliberately drew bead on it, and, after a full minute's aiming, he pulled the trigger. "He didn't come anywhere near the animal, but was very much ex cited. 'Wait,' said he, 'if the thing will only stand still five minutes longer, I'll kill him, sure.' "Pang! went the gun again, amid the suppressed titters of the crowd, and again as before, the rabbit calmly viewed the horizon with his round, unblinking glass eves. "Welt, I do believe Edison frred away at that thing no less than a dozen times before the idea crept in to.his electric brain that it was a put-up job. He took it very good natu redly." Leslie's Budget. In the recent poem in the Ken tucky State Journal, entitled "Wo man's "Work," the following lines appear: "I sweep, I dust, I cook, I rise Up in the morning early, I wash the breakfast dishes and Churn and dress the. baby." This new Kentucky proaess of churning babies deserves a descrip tion in detail from the hand of the authoress. If it really wants to be on winning side, the best thing the Republican Convention can do will be to indorse Cleveland. Gen. Sheridan is making a brave struggle for life. There is encour agement. The Commercial Hotel and eight business houses at Trinidad, Co1., were destroyed by fire. A STRANGE WOHAX. Wonderful Feats of Strength Per formed Without Help. Among the supernatural manifes tations now exeiting attention among the curious, the so-called electric women of Georgia are not the least wonderful. For several days past one of these ladies,,. Miss Dixie Hay good, has been in Memphis giving exhibitions of her power. A repor ter of the Avalanche, by invitation of the little lady, assembled with sever al other gentiemeu at the parlor of the Clarendon Hotel to test these remarkable manifestations, and dis cover, if possible, their source and secret. Among the present were Lawrence Lamb, Zeno Harris, Henry Walsh and several others It is needless to say that it was t!ie determination of the gentle rucy. present to detect, if possible, any trickery or legerdemain that might be attempted Miss'IIaygood. is of small stature, compact ' mold, and apparently muscular beyond most women, and weighs about LOi pounds. She has brown hair, blue or violet eves, and a pleasant expression of counten ance, but an air also of firmness and decision of character. The first two tests, viz., drawing a gentleman easily around the room by applying her hand to a chair or an umbrella held by him, or the third test of holding a billiard cue in her open palms ftt an angle of about forty five degrees with such firmness that a strong man, or even two strong men, could not force the point to the floor, were certainly remarkable in a woman so small, but might have been accomplished by a woman of very great physical strength. There fore the reporter felt disappointed to some extent, and argued with his companions that it was either a mat ter of sleight of hand or else a re markable development of muscular power. But the next test was different. One of the gentlemen present was requested to lift the lady by her elbows, held taut at the waist. He did, but when told to try it again utterly failed to raise her an inch. The strong men then raised her by holding hei'elbows on each side with the greatest ease, but on attempting it again they could not raise her weight a particle from the floor. This was a poser and was tried several times, the party offering ninny explanations, but none at all satisfactory. The fact remained unexplained that she could at-will allow herself to be lifted as other people and immediately thereafter bring into play suoh a force, with out apparent effort, that two strong men could not. move her 100 pounds of weight, try they ever so hard. The next test was still more in explicable. A chair was brought an ordinary dining-room chair and a gentleman weighing about 130 pounds was placed in it. Astride of his knees another gentleman of abount 140 pounds' weight was placed, and between the two a third gentleman of at least 150 pounds was seated. All raised the.r feet from the floor as the chair was tiltled back and held balanced. The little lady then approached the back of the chair and placed her open palms along the arms or staffs supporting the chair's back. Observing the reporter narrowly watching her, she requested him to place his hand between her hand and the chair to prove that no pressure Mas exerted. This was done, and and only the lady's thumbs touched the back of the chair. Then, with out an effort or the contraction of a muscle, or the slightest pressure on the reporter's hand, the chair and its living freight was raised about fourteen inches from the floor. The weight, including the chair, was at least 450 pounds, and John L. Sul livan could not have performed the feat so easily accomplished by the little woman. This test was convincing, but the next was no less so. Miss Haygood stood on one foot, and holding a billiard cue horizontally before her at half-arm's length, three strong men essayed in vain to push her, by throwing their combined! weight against the cue, fiom her balance on one foot or press her arms back to her chest. The shapely, womanly hands lifted the three great strap ping fellows from the floor by sim ply touching with open palms his own hands placed upon the chair back, and he saw the dainty No. 2 boot standing unmoved on the floor with the combined weight of the same three Memphis gentlemen thrown powerfully and persistently against the small figure of its owner. Explain it who can. But m one respect, at least, the modest little lady is like ether mor tals, she has a woman's heart, and last night at 7.30 o'clock, in the parlor of the Clarendon, gave her tiand confidingly to the man of her choice, Thomas"! Embry, of Cin cinnati. The pair were quietly married by Squire J. J. Barry, with out previous notice even to the hotel clerk, and a few minutes later went to the theatre to give the regular performance. The bride was richly dressed in velvet costume, and wore an exquisite corsage bouquet of white flowers without other orna ment. The young husband has cer tainly a deal of temerity to place. himself in the hands of one so capa ble of enforcing eoniugal obedience, but seemed to be a very happy man. About the Right Average. Extract from a speech delivered by Gov. Mill, of New lork, to a threat Concourse in Tammany hall on the Night cf the 12th. "Four years ago the Republican cry was that our candidate for Pres ident was 'too inexperienced. Well, since then he has married and set tled down." Tremendous cheers, which lasted'several seconds. When those had subsided some one called out, "Go thou and do likewise." (The cheering was renewed and the bachelor Governor actually blush ed.) "Mr. Cleveland has given a good example to us all, and if we are as fortunate in our choice as he has been, we shall all have obtained a greater prize than that of the presidency of the United States. "But now they say that our can date for Vice-President is 'too old.' ('Three cheers for the old Roman.') If he is old then he cannot be charged with the inexperience of youth. No man can be said to be 'too old' if he has not outlived his usefulness. The Democratic party is proud to honor the Nestors of the party who served it in the day when it was weak and struggling for existence. IfThurmaii is 'too old' and Cleveland is 'too young' the general average is about right, and even our opponents must admit they make a pretty fair pair for the pres idential race. Tli 11 r inn n and Conklln. Judge Thurman and Mr. Conk- ling were great friends. Thev used to go up to the Hot Springs in Vir ginia for their rheumatism when ootn were in the senate, ana enjoy themselves hugely. Judge Thur man wouiu otten say, "Uonkiing is 'righry good company when he chooses." A scene once occurred between them in the Senate that is perhaps the most graphic and graceful instance of the retort courteous 011 record. It isn't a new story, by any means, but it is true, and is a first-rate story, too Mr, Conk imir was one dav making a speech, during which he repeatedly turned to Judge I hurman and ad dressed remarks to him. Thev were not always of a very gratifying nature, and Judge L hurman, who is a peppery old gentleman, at last lost his temper: "Does the Senator from New lork, he roared, "expect me to answer him every time he turns to me?" For a monent Mr. Conkling he fated, and everybody expected a ter- rittic explosion. 1 hen, with an air of exquisite courtesy he replied: "When I speak of the law I turn to the Senator of Ohio as the Mus sul man turns ' to ward Mecca. turn to him as I do to the 'English common law, as the world s most copious fountain of human juris prudence. J he .Democrats gave a rousing cheer, and Judge Thurman walked over to the .Republican side and shook hands with Conkling. Urn in Foiled hy an Unarmed Man A Fargo ( Dakota ) letter gives the experience of a Montana miner who was pui'sued by a bear, and took to a tree. "We quote from the narrator' account: "The bear wanted to keep me company, for he got to the foot of the tree by the time J had gair.ee a limb six feet from the ground The tree was just about snmll enough for the fellow "to climb, and he triec his claws on the bark as high as he could reach. I was in a bad fix and no way to help my sell . I couldn' use a knife for I had none, but good luck and a happy thought helped me I had a canteen of kerosene oil sus pended around my neck, which I thought would make his eyes smart and drive him away. The oil had no effect on the eyes if it managed to get in them, for the miserable brute continued to look up at me and seemed to grin. Then another idea got into my head. I had a fresh box of matches, and if I could set fire to the oil that I poured over the bear's head the battle was won. X made several attempts to. drop the burning matches on the oils hair of the bear, but thelucifers either went out or missed the mark. I had no paper but I managed to tear a piece of lining out of my vest, and getting a limb almost three feet long, fast ened the rag to it, set fire to the rag, and with more satisfaction than I ever did anything since, lowered the burning rag at the end of the stick until within about three feet of the bear's oil soaked head and let it drop. In about one second I was enjoying all the fun to myself, and the other feilow was in trouble. The oilin stantly took fire and the blaze from the burning hair was somet hing troodjing a story. Ibe siory was half for one in my place to gaze at.

This is a question of some iuterest,for the natural his tory of a house fiy is born fully grown and" of mature size, and that tfiere are no little flics of the same species, the small ones 00 asionally observed being different in kind from the large ones. The house fly does not lay eggs, but extrudes living larvse, which, go through the usual transformations in heaps of decayed garbage and rubish thrown out from houses. It does not bite or pierce, the skin, but gathers its food, by a comb or rake or brush like tongue, with which it is ablo to scrape the varnish from covers of books, and it thus tickles the skin of persons upon which it alights to feed upon the prespiration. A fly is a scaven ger, and is a vehicle by which conta gious diseases are spread It pois ons wounds, and may carry de.idly virus from decaying organic matter into food. It retires from the sight at the beginning of winter, but where it goes few persons know. If a search of the houso is made they will be found in pi-eat numbers se creted in wane places in the roof or between the partition or floors. Last winter we had occasion to ex amine a roof and found around the chimney myriads of flies hibernating comfortably and sufficiently lively to fly when disturbed "in overpower ing clouds." No doubt this is a favorite winter resort for these creatures. Wilmington Messenger, How Cleveland Takes the Xew When He Receives ominations. "When the news reached the "White House that President Cleveland had been nominated, he was sitting in his private office consulting with Gen. Fainsworth, of Albany, and two other gentlemen from New York. The information of ins nom ination was carried in by Col. Lamont, who was in the telegraph office at the time the dispatch arriv-r ed, It was a dispatch unsigned, but only a bulletin from the West ern Union. The President read it slowly, passed it over to Gen. Faros worth and then the general passed it around to the other gentlemen. Nothing was said upon the subject. He took it as a matter of fact and pro ceeded to discuss the question which he had been considering when Col. Lamont handed bun the telegram. It was then about half past 1 o'clock. He made no reference whatever to the action of the convention. He received the news of his nomination in a manner similar to that in which he did his nomination in 1833 for Governor.

On the night of April 14, 18C5.. says the Washington Chronicle, Mr. Liu coin,, accompanied by his wife, Miss Harris, and Maj. Rathbone, of Alba- j ny, N, Y., was occupying a box at Ford's theatre, in the city of Wash ington. The play wras "Our Ameri can Cousin," jwith Sothern in the principal role. Mr. Lincoln was en joying it greatly. Lee had surren dered on. the 9th ; on the l:Jth the war was evt ry where regarded as en ded, and upon that day Secretary Stanton had telegraphed to Gen. Dix, G overnor of New York, request ing him to stop the draft. Sothern as Lord Dundreary was at his best. Lh.coln was delighted. The lines which care and responsibility had so deeply graven on his brow were now scarcely visible. Before leaving for the theatre ho had pronounced it the happiest day of his life. Ho looked, indeed, as if ho now fully realized the consummation of tho long cherished and fondest aspira tion of his heart. Ho was at length the undisputed chief magistrate of a confederation of Slates, constitut ing the freest and most powerful commonwealth of modern times. At some period of the performance Sothern appeared on the stags with Miss Meredith, the heroine, on one arm, and a wrap or shawl carelessly thrown over the other. The latter seated herself upon a garden lounge placed on the stage near the box oc cupied by the President cn this oc casion. Lord Dundreary retreats 4 few paces from the rustic sao when Miss Meredith, glancing lan guidly at his lordship, exclaims: "Me lord, will you kindly throw my shawl over my shoulder ? There ap pears to be a draught here!"' Soth ern, at once comppiug with the re quest, advanced with the mincing step that immortaliaed him and with a mrry twinkle of theeve and a significant glance directed at Mr. Lincoln, responded to the happy impromptu: "You are mistaken. Miss Mary, the draft has already been stopped by order of the Presi dent ?" This sally caused Mr. Lin coln to laugh as few except himself could laugh, and an outburst of merriment resounded from all parts of the house. It was Mr. Lincoln's !ast laugh.
