W itchita, Kan.,—Pcor little baby Jessie, the 2 -year-old daughter of Mr and Mrs Hickmeye',is dead and her mother is a raving lunatic. The infant fell down a well tube on Thurs- day last at Leoti. By means of a rope, to which a hook was attaeb(d, it was found, that she was seventy feet .below the surface, caught fast in the tube, whiol] was twelve inch- es in diameter, tapering to eight inches at a depth of eighty feet. The hook caught on the baby's clothing and she was pulled up thirty feet only to fall back with a, piteous cry. Other attempts to hook the child failed, though` her calls were fre- quently heard. It was then decid- ed to dig down through llie_,.sati.dy. soil," ind if possible to reach that portion of the tube where the baby was. The work was long and diffi- cult. Day and night the rescure's labored The mother stood by nearly all the time, with little rest and scanty nourishment. WI:ea it grew.too dark to dig by daylight ,lanterns were furnished, and with, „untiring energy and zeal the brave -band went on excavating, impelled by the tears and prsyers of the fran- tic mother. At. three. o'clock Sun - afternoon the spot where 'the child ;was caught was reached. It was i eventy-two feet from the surface. The iron tube was cut.with chisels and the child was taken out, 'but it wasdead and,had been for some time. When the cold corpse was given to the"mother she fell down in'a dead faint.• 4. When she recovered con- soiousness her reason had gone. Little Jessie was a lovely child, the pet of the neighborhood. • ITANG UP THESE APHOR- ISMS.

CATARRH. perial Marshals (who died in Nov- ember, 1851, just ebout a year be fore his great antagonist, the Duke of Wellington) told a venerable French general officer, who repeated it to the writer, that when the Em- peror went to Elba he had 60,000,- 000 francs covered up in Paris alone. Of the $12,000,000 hard cash paid over at one time by the United States to Napoleon as First Consul in 1803, it was cgrn non rumor— not very general, you may be sure, however -that 7,500,000 francs of the sum was never accounted for in vouchers. This might easily been. Napoleon was then F Consul for life. He could do what be chose, and nobody d call him to account. It is not }cry difficult to hide money in large sums, too, so it can- not be found, be the search ever so careful, Ferdinand Ward has some millions thus covered up, and no human being has 'ever yet found a clue to the stolen treasure. It was said and believed by many people too, that Stephen Girard, of Pbila- delphia,had a large sum in his hands belonging to Napoleon I,, which he would have handed over to hint had he succeeded in getting away to the United States atter Waterloo, as lie tried to do. Louis XVIII., thot his Minister of Finance, did all his power to discover tho hidt treasure, but those who knew would never toll.

I was well used to the different forms of consumption, and knew her trouble all came:from the "head" and that her lungs were being destroyed by breathing the poisonous secretions into them.

BUGS THAT BURROW, A young peasant woman from a village near here .has a new theory and cure for rheumatism, writes a Japanese correspondent', to the St, Louis Globe. Many of those short tempered people, have had rheumat- ism in their knees and gout in their toes, have declared that the sensation. was as if something were gnawing at their muscles, and this.Japauese wo- man says that it is so in rea ity. Rheumatism, according to her, is the growth of a parasite under the skin, a small insect that gnaws and bites and causes the untold misery and all the twinges of that ailment. She has bad for one of her patients here a griz- zled and sceptical sea captain, and as sea captains may always be believed, except about the sea serpent, his case ought to settle It. The mariner was completely ]aid up with his ailing knee, and the Japane•e woman was sent for. She claimed to see• the movement of the parasites under the skin, ordered foot baths of bran and hot rice brandy, and came another day ste l hook and nipped some vwhite tinsectssout by the dozen. By the stories, it must be a large white flea,for one of them was brought out to the surface. made a spring and was lost to sight. One of the bystan- dere felt a sting, and the next day had a sore place on his arm, and cut- ting into it, it was found that the rheumatism bug had eaten into it aud was there burrowing like a tick. The regular practitioners are sceptical about this new theory of rheuma- tism. They put one of the insects u nder a miscroscope and decided that by its organism, it never could have lived under the surface of•the skin away from the air, and that she must have carried it under her finger nail and introduced it at a proper mo- ment. To this the sea captain enters a vigorous denial. She says that she Pitcher's Castoria, Mr P. Danaviarr consults -his den- tist. • Excruciating pain in your teeth you say ? inquired the practitioner. -Horrible ! How often does it come on ? Every five minutes. And lasts ? 0 a quarter of an hour at the very least. So you've got a wife, said Jones to a newly married man. Don't know, don't know, replied the man, with evident hesitation. Sometimes I think I've got her, and sometimes I think she's got me. You see I've only been married a few months, and I can't .te11 just yet how the blamed combination is going to turn out. A man in New York eipent $20 in one month for beer and whiskey for hinaself,and two dollars for bread and meat for his wife and three little children. 'file had lived in a pro- hibition town he might have squan- dered the whole $22 dollars on bread and pleat; • A bachelor one day set the table in his lonely abode with plates for him- self and an'imaginary .wile and five children. He/then sat down to dine, and as often as he helped himself to food he put the same quantity on each of the other plates and surveyed the prespect,at the same time computing the cost. He is still a bachelor. A fortune-teller can hit a women's case nine times out of ten.
