HE WAS A HUMAN BEAK.
Jtut He Was Sat Down in a Trr.v
I'roper Way.
Coining in on tlie 0. R. ik N. car
from Eastern Oregon the other day,
sat a gruff, middle-aged man, much
resembling a b';ar, says the Asto-ian.
He was reading a newspaper. Be
hind him sat a man with a pale face,
who held in his arms a haby. He
evidently was not in the habit of
nianating babies. At all event?, he
failed signaily in this instance. He
had a bottle rf milk, which heofl'ercd
thu haby when it ;ried, but the baby
roaised it and only cried the more.
Fina ly the bear turned in his scat
and inquired in a loud voice if there
was no way to quiet that baby. The
pale faced man said that he had
found u way. The baby cried all
the more, and the bear grew fierce.
After telling the pale-faced man
several times that the baby was a
nuisance, he inquired: "Where in
thunder is that child's mother? I
wish she would come and take care
fit." "The mother of this baby,"
taid the palc-f iced man, "is in a coffin
in the front car." "Now, then," said
a passenger, looking at the bear, if
you don't hush you will be pitched
out ot the car." The baby cried and
fretted all the rest ot the way, but
not another word was said by tho
btar.

Electricity In Mining.
St Louis Globe-Democrat
Electricity is going to revolutionize
mining, as it has already done some
other industries, and the time will
eme when it will .be the sole force
used for bringing up gold and silver.
Even now you can have an electric
plant which will light up your tun
nels, run your tramways, operate
elevators in your shafts and werk
yonr drills.
Ten men with drills operated with
electricity can take out as much ore
and tunnel as far as 100 men with
picks, shovels and blasting material.
The wages of ninety men would soon
pay for an electric plant. Beside,
you can light your building and save
insurance and oil.

Were you ever a train robber?"
'Judge," said the witness, turning

"And reniemberjyou are under oath."

Chicago Corr. Cincinnati Enquirer.
The history of a mysterious mar
riage was filed with the clerk of the
Superior Court recently, and the mat
ter will come up in the usual way to
be heard in the divorce court.
Robert B. Mitchell ia the complain
ant, who claims to have been forced
into a peculiar marriage. The story
of the bill is this: On tke 25th day
of last August the plaintiff was at tke
depot to take a train for Evanston,
when two detectives, accosted him
and said there was a man at the
Avenue House in Evanston who very
much desired to see him. Against
his will, the bill alleges, Mitchell was
conducted to that place, where he
met one McCord, who informed him
that he would be compelled to return
with the party to Chicago and marry
a woman named Anna L. Callis.
To this proposition, it is claimed,
the plaintiff objected strenuously,
but in vain. The detectives claimed
to have the power to arrest him, but
upon what charge they did not say.
Accordingly he returned to Chicago
the same day with McCord and the
detectives. He attempted to escape
after leaving the train, but they held
him and conducted him by force to
theCbfion House, it is alleged. Mc
Cord then left with one of the detec
tives, as ho said, for a marriage
license and a minister.
The women was brought in, and
for the first ime, it is said, the plain
tiff set eyes upon her. He ran to
the other door to escape, but found a
detective en guard. Presently the
two who left returned with the minis
ter and the license, and the ceremony,
it is charged, was performed against
Mitchell's will and in spite of his pro
testations. Then he was permitted
to de art, which he did, never seeing
the woman afterward. An affidavit
accompanying the bill gives the
woman's residence as Martinsville,
Ind. The prayer of the bill is that
the Court declare the marriage null
n1 void.

The newest game takes the form of
an information party, and itheguu by
passing to each gentleman a card and
te the iadies small pieces of paper,
which slum Id be numbered. Those
who discover the same number en
their card are partners for tiic game.
Each couple must think of a Ques
tion, sensible or ridiculous, Historical
or in regard to the weather, to be
written on the cards, after which the
rards are to be gathered together and
tho leader reads eich in turn, giving
a few moments for the partners to
consider the subject and write the
answer, which should be read aloud
in turn. This is where the fun of the
game begins, as many of the answers
arc exceedingly queer.
Those having a correct answer
mark their card 10, a wrong answer 0,
and if the answer is anywhere near
right it is counted 5. When all are
added prizes my be distributed as in
progressive games.for.tke best and the
pcorest record.
The instructive part of the game is
the discussion which follows the
questions. The height of Bunker liill
