THE HURON EX OSITOR. 7 An Operator's Joke. Shortly after the Atlantic cable was pronounced a success, and cablegrams were flying acrese the waters, a tele- geeph operator at Denver, Colorado,one aaorning concluded to perpetrate a prac- tical joke on the operators at Omaha, ehdToint at which all telegrams from East to West were reported. It was the time -of the war between Italy and. France, and. the young man prepared. thelollowing telegram, and sent it in the usual manner to the Omaha office: aro the Emperoe Napoleon, Garden of the Tuilliries, 'Paris France. Governor Gilpin will not accede to the cession of Italy to France. Please let Bohemia alone. - (Signed) i GOVERNOR GILPIN, Or Any Other Man. He thought, of coarse, that the oper- ator at Omaha would understand. that it wea a joke, would receive ap.dread it, then tear it up. ' But it didn't turn out that way. The l Omaha office was a ear,- busy one, an,d the operator had eery little time to decide whether a tel- egram which passed through his hands was intended as a joke or not, and the man receiving it placed it on the Chi- cago book, and in due time it was for - i warded to Chicago, thencetoNew York and from there by cable to th e French Emperor. Cablegrams are by far cheap- er now than they were in those days. The cost of ten words from Deaver to Paris was 5187.50 in gold.. - Nothing more was heard from the raessage until the end. of the month; the time for squaring accounts, when Billy Woodard, the manager of the Denver office, received the following telegram from the Treasater at New York : "Come down With the dust." For the life of him he didn't know what it meant, and telegraphed back to New York asking for information. Re received the followiag informations "Your cable of the — instant, to Napoleon, Paris, France, signed Gover- nor Gilpin, or any other man, amount due, 4187.5)." ' This was a stunner and Bill scratched his head again and again, trying to think what it all meant. He knew very well he had never received any such amountforthe message, nor was there any record of it having been sent. He questioned the operators about it when one of them remarked: " H-1.! won- der if it is that foolish thing I sent to -Omaha ?" Inquiry developed the fact that that was the identical hair -pin which had caused the row, and the young man's face was a study for an ar- tist, when told he would have to pay the modest little sum. of 5187.50 for the enjoyment he derived from his pactical -joke. No doubt he considered it ex- tremely practical'. An attempt was made to have the cable company remit the amount, but did not succeedeendthe result was, the young operator had to "come down. with the dust himself. He paid. itand ever afterwards when helsent a cablegram to Omaha he would always inform the receiving operator that it was not a joke. - The whole telegraph correspondence, and that which passed through the mails con&srning the matter, was fram- ed, and. can be seen at the Omaha office at the present day. Just what remark the Emperor of France made when he received the message has not been 're- corded in history. ----- What Hair Indicates. Eyes, mouth, chin_ and. nose all con- tribute to indicate the character of their owners, and now somebody finds that the hair has a similar use. Straight, lanky, stringy -looking hair, indicates weakness and cowardice. Curly hair denotes fa quick temper. Fr;zzly hair set on one's head as if each individual hair were ready to fight its neighbor, de- notes coarseness._ Black hair denotes -courage, especially when one is. corner- ed, with a wonderful degree of pertina- 'city ad a disposition to hang on until whatever is undertaken be accomplish- ed; also a, grows predisposition to re- venge wrongs and insults real or fan- cied. Brown hair denotes a fondness for life, a friendly disposition, ambition, earnestness of purpose. capacity for business, and reliability of friendship, in, proportion as the hair is fine. Very fine hair indicates an even disposition, a readiness to forgive, with a desire to add to the happiness of others. Per- sons with fine light brown hair, inclined to curl or friz, are quick tempered, and are given, to resentment and revenge. Light brown hair inclined to redness, with a, freckled skin, ie a certain indi- -cation of deceit, treachery, and a dis- position to do something mean by a 'friend when that friend can no longer be used to advantage. ty remember- ing these items quite an. amusing parlor game of fortune telling may be insti- tuted. - A Mighty nan.dy Thing. The undomesticated editor of the Newport Local thus relates his matri- raonial experience: "A. woman is a mighty handy thing to have about the house. She doesn't cost any more to keep than you'll give her, and she'll take a great interest in yon. If you go out at night she'll be awake when you get home, and. then she'll tell you all about herself, and snore too. Of course she will know whore you've been and. what kept you out so late, and will tell you; yet right after she gets through telling you that, she will ask you where you have been and what kept you out so late. And after you tell her and. she Won't belieVe VOU, you mustn't mind that; and. if, after going to bed, she says she haul closed her eyes the whole night, and then keeps up the matinee two hours longer, ana, won't go to sleep when she has a. chance, you mustn't mind that, either, its her nature." Paine's Writings. The life and. death Of Tom Paine, the authtl..1 of the a Age of Reason," have given rise to a controversy out ofall proportion to hie inerits as a theological Writer, The Age of Reason" does not, in our day., furnish a single -argu- ment again:a Chrietianity. Paine was Poorly provided with the knowledge Iv - visite for conducting . this debate; what he attemptedjuis since been _ far more ably deme by- Strauss, and. other 'writers of the mythical school. Modern tepresentetivee of unbelief, such as John Stuart Mill and Miss Martineau, are persone of a wholly different type.. It is, therefore,a question of very little moment how Paiue lived in his later years, or how he died. The New York Obscene* las, however, met the chal- lenge ia regard te Paine, and, produced the testimony of Grant Thorburn and the Rev. Dr. J. D. Wickham, both of whom allege that he was during -that period disgustingly intemperate. In re- lation to hie dying, the memoirs of Stephen. Grellet are brought forward to show that Paine said, "If the devil ever had any agency in any work, he has had it in writing that book." But, as already stated, the question has been magnified far beyond its importance. Unbelief makes a great Mistake when it rests its case upon the life, chara,bter, and. writings of Thomas Paine. A Trout That Carried a Ticket. The remark of Prof. Aeassiz that no man knevv whether the huge trout caught in the lakes " were ten or two hundred years bid," prompted florae en- terprising men several years ago to try and find out how fast a trout grows. To get some light on the questionl Mr. Page conceived an ingenious device, which he at once proceeded to put into execution. Platinum wire was obtain- ed, cut into one and a half inchlengths, flattened at one end, and various num- bers were stamped on the surface from to 4, also the neenbers 70, 71, 72, to denote the year. As trout were cap- tured they were weighed, one of these teas was passed through the skin just under the adipous fin, and securely twist- ed, and then the fish was liberated. In the course of two or three years named, a large number of trout were thus la- belled. Of course the chances that any of them would be caught seemed in- finitesimally' small, yet in 1873 one of -them reported. In 3:tine of that year. Mr. Thomas Moran, the artist, captur- ed a, fine, vigorous trout, weighing 2f pounds. Upon taking him from the landing net, the platinum tag flashed in the sunlight. Upon examination, the mark ?,,71," was discovered, thus establishing the curious fact that this fish had gained 1.2- pounds in two years. City vs. Country Papers. An exchange contains the following truthful and sensible article: " Suppose the country paper was done away with, what would take its place? If we wish to make known to others what rich soil we possess, what agri- cultural and stock raising facilities we have, can we do it more effectually than through the columns of our home pa- per? Do the city papers say anything in regard to our own county.? Do they eontain notices of your schools, meet- ings, churches, improvements and -hun- dreds of other matters of interest, which your home paper publishes without pay? Not an item. Do they say a word calculated to draw attention to our county, an4 aid its progress and en- terprise? Not a line' Russian Editors. Russian newspapers are conducted on an economical baeis, and the publishers tell no lies. The Moscow Teatraitnaia Gazeta recently incurred the displeasure of the government, and an officer of the Press Bureau was sent to the office to arrest the proprietors. The only per- son in the establishment was the pub- lisher, and he was sternly summoned. to fetch the editor. The publisher went up stairs and returned speedily with a large pair of scissors, saying, "Here, sir, is the editor." The officer was rather dieconcerted, but soon recovered hiM.- self, and exclaimed more sternly than ever, "No nonsense! fetch me the sub- editor." Again the publisher departed, and again returned, this time with a` pot of paste and a brush. " he said, " are the sub -editors." Wealthy Men: of San Francisco.. There are', over forty men . in San Francisco, whose fortunes exceed 54,- 000,000 each. There are as many more whose wealth is from 51,000,000 to 53,- 000,000 each. *None of these fortenes were inherited., but were- acquired by business and speculative operations ,and all within a period, of twenty-five years. None of the millionaires have passed the prime of life, and they are all just as eager in their pursuit for riches as • those who elijoy no reputation for opu- lence.. The passion for great wealth .in California is unprecedented: Sharma whose fabulous _wealth reads like the story of Monte Cristo, arrived in Sacra- mento city in 1849; when it was a tent town, and lila the basis for his fortune in a small grocery on K street. Mr. Spurgeon's Presents. Ur. Spurgeon !has alWays been the fortunate recipient of many presents. When he first..rose into popularity in London, he ha -do many pairs of slip- pers sent by the. young ladies f his con- gregation, that he announced one Sun- day morning that he had as many s' as would last him all his life. Thingsaro changed now. Mr. Spurgeon's frieeds, learning that he smokes, send him presents in- the shape of .cigars. -He has get so many boxes that it will not be surprising if he should announce at the Metropolitan Tabernacle some morn: iug 'that he has got as many cigars as will last him for a generation. . - Varieties. An English manufacturer advertises for a man with a thorough knowledge of cotton and. woollen rags, and capable of managing about eighty women; "a very liberal salary will be given." " And. so there plight -to be," remarks Punch: - -The Prince and Princess of Wales show in many ways most kind hearts. They have provided for Sandringham and the other villages adjoining, excel- lent school rooms and. teachers, and on holidays they give the children treats and serviceable gifts, the Princess and her little ones distributing the letter with their own hands. -Two Irishmen. were walking along one of the main thoroughfares in Glas- gow, when they noticed a large placard in the window of a shop with the words "Butter ! • Butter! ! Butter"! ! !" in giant type, printed on it. " Pat," said. Mick, " what is the- mailing of them big strokes- after the words?"." Odh, yo ignoramus," says Pat, ". sure they're meant for shillelaghs, to show that its Irish butted" -Au irousconstitutioned woman at Salisbury Point, New Hampshire, has performed an almost incredible amount of labor during her lifetime, working simply because she loves to, for she Ws hasband who is willing and able -to support her. She has been known to get brdakfast for the family, Walk 12 miles; and put on. 30 rolls of .well paper. leefore.she slept, and in this way she has built and paid for a house worth 52,000, besides- accumulating quite a little fortune. Her latest feat' was to get up a supper for a whole . church -so- ciety to raise money to pay the Beaton, doing all the cooking and providing mast of the food herself, and topping -off the exploit with a generous money con- tribution. -Another good man 'gone wrong." William C. Binney, of Amesbury, Mass., 60 years old, well connected, an.d_prom- inent in town and religious affairs, has run away, to St. Louis, it is thought, closely followed by his wife and family, having lost a 52,000 church legacy and other trust funds in private investments. His experience is the old one of down- fall from tmisappropriation and ware- vagance, and his irregularities are said to amount to 540,000. -Another prom- inent member of the Essex bar, de- scribed only as about 80 years old, is said. to be a defaulter, 514,000 worth of school funds in his charge being among the deficiencies. -The. eccentric American, Miss Thompson, who had her horse shod with gold in Edinburgh, is in Spain as- tonishing the natives. She put up fitst at a little -town just over the French boder, paying extravagant sums for services, and am -using herself by throw- ing gold into the streets for the children to scramble for. The police persuaded her to go to Saragossa, where she would be safer, but she came back again, and it's a wonder that brigands haven't rob- bed and murdered her before this. A thief did steal her gold watch and 51,000 a short time ago, but she -refused to ap- pear against him. -There was a disgraceful scene fiet a London theatre the other night. A " gentleman " in a stage -box amused himself by fishing for the ankles of the ballet girls with the Crook of his cane, causing one of them to retire in tears from the footlights. He then com- menced abusing one of the actors, who crossed over to the box and slapped his persecutor's face. The gentleman cliinib- ed out of the box on. to the stagel, an.d went for the actor; -a real stage fight ensued, during which- the curtain was dropped, and the disturber of the peace was. given into custody. The sentence was that he was to find a surety for his good behaviour for three months. 1 -.Belgrave: - ' - Mn. EDITOR, -If you ever should.have occasion to travel to .Wing,harn from Clinton by the old gravel road, you- will, while being delighted with the general aspect of the country, at the same time : be mostagreeably surprised (as I have often been) with the -abruptness of your introduction into the -midst of some of t the gre t commercial enterprises of our county in- the shape of three villages re- spectively na,med,Londesborough, Elyth and Belgrave, all of which, as you pro-, coed. northward are screened as it were from the view of the traveller by an in- tervening bluff or_ridge of land, extend- ing east and west. Of the first two, I do not intend to write j net now particularly. They are able to speak for themselves. But of the three, the latter is, perhaps, the most ambitious, especially is it so in the number of churches it can boast of, and the respectable appearance of those who frequent them, every Sabbath, and first on the list as you proceed north- ward is the Presbyterian edifice which Wae begun to be bailt some thirteen years ago, when Presbyterianism was weak in this section, hence they did not providesufficiently for increase from nat- ural propagation and other sources, and consequently have been obliged. to add thereto in such a way that their build- ing now resembles in shape the letter T, and. is capable of seating fully 300. On really good days, when the roads are splendid, or if it" popular preacher is to fill the pulpit, all the sitting morn will be fully occupied., otherwise :Vice versa. _ They- have no - stated minister among them just rtqw, .and in conse- quence, I am told. they are getting into a rather -dead state, so much so that -even -when an evening prayer meeting is requested to be held • among them they appear to consider it .as an insult to their intelligence; even the - professed leaders in the congregation absent them- selves as if with one accord, lest they should he thought to be righteous over- much, and those who do attend are un- der the necessity of worshipping almost without light or heat, such a meagre supply of these es- sentials for comfort being provided, -Such. a state of things in any congrega- tion is truly to be deplored, and we fain hope that, both for their own creclit,and for that of Presbyterianism, they will be led to turn over a new leaf.' They have however, built a manse lately, which as kegaeds dimensions - and architectural elegance contrasts most favorably with the other -Mansions in the village, and only wants a - stately matron with a good - half-dozen prattlers to keep the epacious halls in life and 'order. As for the other two churches and their re- ! spective congregations, I am told that they are both in a prosperous condition, especially is this the case with the Wes- leyan Methodists, whose church occu- pies a central position- , between the post office and. the Orange hall, and was built some five years ago, the architect being the esteemed and most enterpris- ing man in the place, namely Mr. Cor -s nelius Bell, who owns and runs the only saw mill and shingle factory in the -vicin- ity, doinie I. am told, a Very large and . lucrata.'• -evilness in lumber and. Shin- gles of elle very best quality. He is also an extensive contractor and hoesebuila- er, for the Great Western Railway com- pany. Aid lastly, but not least in im- portance, is the Episcopal Church,which faces the Main street, and stands about half way between the post office and the Presbyterian Church. It completely eclipses the former two in elegance of design and neatness of finish, the architect being the present Episcopal minister of Wingham, Rev. Mr. Davis, B. A.

A horse is said to be hide -bound when his skin will not slip under the pres- sure of the hand, but sticks as if it was glued, which condition is, always de- pendent on a deranged. state of the stomach an.d digestive organs -by cor- recting which, and giving to them a healthy tone and condition the disease or complaint will disappear. Experi- ence has proved that the means best adapted to his end is " Darley's Condi- tion Powders and Arabian Heave Rem- edy:" It has been used. in numerous cases with complete success, generally effecting a cure in a few days. It is the best condition medicine known, and may be given with perfect gaiety at all times, and. does not require that the horse be kept from work. -Remember the name and. see that the signature of Hurd' & Co., is on each package.

ASTONISHING SUCCESS. -It is the duty of every person who has used BOSCHEE'S GERMAN SYRUP,. to let its wonderful qualities be known to their friends ,in curing Consumption, severe Coughs, Croup, Asthma, Pneumonia, and in fact all throat and lung dieeases. No person can use it without immediate relief. Three doses will relieve any case, and we consider it the duty of all druggists to reconamend it to the poor dying consumptive, at least to try one bottle, as 40,000 dozen bottles were sold last year, and no one case where it fail- ed was reported. Such a medicine as the Giieerese SYRUP cannot be too wide- ly known. Ask your druggist about it.
