dissuade the Count, stating that the
canvas was not suitable for a garment,
and in a short time Count D’Orsay
was supplied with the canvas trous-
era.
At five o’clock one afternoon he
climbed the vast staircase of Cruck-
ford’a, then one of the fashionable clubs
of London, and the first person whom
he met was Lord Chesterfield.
“Upon my word,” said the noble
lord, “you have a singular garment
there, something rare without doubt.
Always the same original and charm
ing D’Orsay!
The Count received the compliment
with some confusion.
“It is perhaps not exactly elegant,”
ho said, “but it is very handy and
fresh, and especially suited to riding
on horseback.”
In a few moments a group of dan-
dies had surrounded the clever French-
man. Lord Chesterfield in the main
parlor was expatiating on the originali­
ty of D’Orsay’s taste, and a few days
afterward the tailor found himself over-
run with orders for these canvastrous-
eis. Lord Chesterfield himself ordered
a dozen pair. Count D’Orsay had ac-
coinplished his purpose, the delighted
tailor came no more with his trouble-
some bill.
On another occasion a carriage-
maker who brought the Count an
elaborate memorandum of services sat
down in the dressing room of the man­
sion and declared that he would not
leave until his bill was paid. Count
D’Orsay was dressing and was anxious
to get out; he rose without the slight­
est appearance of anxiety or confusion,
took from his toilet table a pair of
8i»sora, opened a wardrobe, slowly un­
did the dazzling uniform of a French
general of the Empire, which had
been his father’s, cut from it a button,
and turning toward the carriagemaker,
held forth this precious souvenir.
The carriage-maker, astonished, was
inclined to resent what he thought
was a practical joke.
“Do you think, villain,” said the
Count, in solemn tones, “that I could
possibly leave in your hands such a
precious article as this? Don’t you see
to redeem it I Bhall be obliged sooner
or later to pay any sum you ask ?”
The carriage-maker, astonished, for­
got his indignation, took the button,
departed, and was heard of no more.

TARIFF TALK.
Edison’s phonograph of a few years
ago was considered a wonderful curi-
qsity, but people thought it could not
possibly be a really practical invention,
and they were confirmed in this opin­
ion when it was withdrawn from pub­
lic attention. But the great wizard
had not by any means given up the
idea, and of late he I irs devoted Buch
thought and tabor to the subject that
through his wonderful genius he has
evolved an instrument which will be as
groat an event in this day as was the
invention of the electric telegraph fifty
years ago.
The new phonograph is about the
size of an ordinary sewing machine.
• It will be used for taking dictation, for
taking
testimony in court, for report­

vocal music, for teaching languages,

V ictoria , B. C., Jan. 24.—Intelli­
gence was wired here from Wellington
this morning that an explosion had oc­
curred in No. 5 pit. Hou. Dunsmuir,
owner of the mine, proceeded quickly,
by special train, to the scene of the
disaster.
An eye wituess states that, when
about one hundred yards from the ¡lit
he heard a report like a large cauuou
and there instantly shot far into the
air a dense mass of black smoke and
dust which converted the snowy cov­
ering of the ground into iukv black­
ness. This continued for five minutes
and then subsided, leading everything,
apparently, as before, though a portion
of the fan house had lieen destroyed.
Manager Bryden at once proceeded to
the »shaft and his attention was first I
paid to repairing the fan house, which
was quickly accomplished, and the fau
started again. The shaft timbers were
destroyed aud cages could not 1*> used

once prepared. Meanwhile the first

than the facts brought out in the fol­
lowing tariff talk which a representa­
tive of the New York Press had the
other day with Hon. Stephen Sanford
of Amsterdam. N. Y.:
“I have seen," stud Mr. Sanford, “the
evil effects of low tariff upon the car­
pel industry of our country. We made
carpets under a low tariff but how did
we do it? We paid our skilled me­
chanics 81 a day and common workiDg-

I Salem Statesman, Jan. 27th. |
Yesterday there might have been
seen on the streets of Salem five men
whose peculiar pallor would have indi­
cated unmistakably to a close olreerver
that they were convicts from the peni­
tentiary; and such an observer would
have been eminently correct in so
thinking, for Superintendent Clow yes­
terday morning turned loose from the
prison five “cons.” whoee sentences
were commuted on Tuesday, “pardon
day,** to expire on Thursday, January
26th. The case« of these five men the
governor considered especially meri­
torious and worthy of his executive
clemency, the reasons for commutation
of their sentences, which is a practical
pardon, being a recommendation for
pardon by the district attorney, pre­
vious good character, sufficient punish­
ment, good conduct while in prison,
etc.: in one case, that of Harry Smiley,
sent up from Umatilla county in Feb­
ruary, 1887, for eighteen months for
larceny, ths commutation is for doubt

was lowered to him and he reached the
surface in an exhausted condition. A
second miner also was enabled to get
out by this ¡lerilous method, while it is
reported that a third, when within fifty
feet from the top, lost his hold and fell
to certain death at the bottom of the
shaft. Two men were then lowered as
a searching party, but returned, stat­
ing that nothing could lie heard but
calls from below. Fortunately the
mine had not been fired, so that the
danger from this source was averted.
A temporary cage was made and low­

ers reaching it by means of ladders,

Feats of Archery.
Iu the days when the Buffalo was
found iu vast herd« ou the Western
plaius there were Indians who riding
at a gallop, could send an arrow
through a buffalo's body. Remarkable
as this shooting was, yet it did not
equal that reached by the archers of
ancient times. Mr. Dixon, in his his­
tory of Gairlock, Scotland, says that
the MacRaes of that district were
such skillful archers that they oould
hit a mau at a distance of 400 and SOO
yards. He instances the killing of
serving men at 500 yards and of two
men, several McLeods, at 400 yards.
^est the reader should discount the
distance of the range, the author men­
tions several wonderful shots made by
Turks. In 1794 the Turkish ambassador
shot an arrow in a field near London
412 yards against the wind and 482
yards with the wind The secretary
of the ambassador ou bearing the ex­
pressions of surprise from the Euglish
gentlemen present, said the Sultan had
shot 500 yards. This was the greatest
performance of modern days, but a
pillar standing on a plain near Con­
stantinople, recorded shots ranging up
to 800 yards.
Sir Robert Ainsley, British ambas­
sador to the Sublime Porte, records
that in 1798 he was present when the
Sultan 6hot an arrow 972 yards.
