February G, 1800. THE NEBRASKA INDEPENDENT. 3 AN UNOCCUPIED GRAVE. It Hm a Headstone, With an Inscription, ad Thereby Hang a Tale. At the head of a grave In the Glen Dyberry cemetery at this place is a weather-stained marble slab containing una inscription: : In memory of Jonathan H. Salmon, see : ond mats of tba hip Arabella, who was : killed by a whale off the southwest coast 2 ot South America, Deo. 8, 1847, aged 28 years. The whailing ship Arabella sailed from Sag; Harbor on August 8, 1847 She fell in with a lot of sperm whales on December 5 following- off the south' west coast of South America, says the Honesdale, Pa., correspondent of the New York Sun Three big fellows bad been killed, and the boat com manded by Second Mate Salmon started in pursuit of the fourth. Sal mon was a native of Honesdale. They got close enough, to the whale for the harpooner launch his harpoon successfully at the monster. Before the crew of the boat could pull away the wounded monster struck an up ward blow with its terrible fluke. The Txmt was lifted out of the water sev- ral feet, so high that it turned en tirely over in the air. The men drop ped in the water. Salmon fell near the furious whale, still having his oar In his hands. The whale rushed upon him with its tremendous jaws wide open and engulfed both Salmon and his oar. It was the oar that saved Salmon for that time. The whale's jaws came together on the oar which stuck out on one side of - is jaws so far back near the hinges of the jaw that it kept the huge mouth from closing sufficiently to crush the seaman. Before the whale could change the situation Salmon jumped from his mouth into the sea. Another boat, in which was the brother of Salmon, who was also a sailor on the Arabella, had come up Dy tnis time, and Salmon succeeded in reaching it and was rescued from the whale. But his safety was only mo mentary, for the whale treated this boat as it had the other. Salmon was thrown into the water near the whale, as he had been a few minutes before. The whale took him in at onco. This time Salmon had no oar to stay the monster's jaws, and they closed upon him like a gigantic trap. The whale went down out of sight, and none of the crew ever saw it or their shipmate again. The story of the sea tragedy, the memory of which is perpetuated by the stone at the tenantless grave in the Honesdale cemetery, is recalled by a recent visit to this village of the brother of Johnathan Salmon, who was with him on that fatal voyage, the brother having been for many years a conductor on the Erie railway. The grave was made and the stone erected in 1849, in which year the surviving brother returned with the news of the other's death. Blaine's Good Humor. On one occasion, a decision which Blaine made as speaker of the house greatly enraged a new member, who waited on . Pennsylvania avenue after the house adjourned with some friends, declaring that he would "have it out or fight." "You can't," said one of his friends; "nothing you can say will get the better of Blaine's good humor and politeness." "We'll see!" said the en- VfLere.d man ns riA nnnnrrit. oirfVit. rt fVio stately, form of the speaker coming slowly toward him. He stepped for ward quickly and stood across his path. "Mr. Blaine," he said loud ly, "I don't know you. But I take the liberty of telling you, sir, that you are a fool and a jackass!" "Indeed!" said Blaine, mildly; "now I wonder," re garding him thoughtfully, "what kind of a liberty you would have taken if I had been one of your intimate friends?" and, bowing courteously, he passed on while the companions of the congress man burst into a shout of laughter. Argonaut. Heavy AVork and Heavy Eaters. Scientific research shows that meats, fish, milk and other animal foods cost three times more than flour, meal and other staple vegetable foods to get the same nutritious result. It is also shown that the heavy work of the world is not done by the meat eaters. The Russian soldiers, who built such wonderful roads and carried a weight of armor and luggage that would crush the average farm hand, lived on coarse brown broad and sour milk. The Spanish peasant works all day and dances all night, and eats only his black bread, onion and watermelon. The Smyrna porters eat only a little fruit and some olives, and yet they walk off with a load of 100 pounds. The coolies, fed on rice, are more active than the negroes fed on meat, and European farm laborers rarely get meat oftener than twice a week, yet they are strong and endure "great hardships. Lightning Makes a Ball of Iron. A remarkable discovery was re cently made while workmen were tear ing down a building at Pesth, Hun gary. When they removed the light ning rod, which had been erected some fifteen years previous, a large mass of pure iron was found firmly attached to the lower end. The lump was por ous as a sponge, but pure and very heavy, the piece, which was not more than twice as large as the average man's head, weighing forty-six pounds, rhere is ' it one way of accounting for the peculiar position of this ball of iron it had been brought together and shaped by the action of lightning On the iron particles in the clay. No Such Thing: as Cheapness. Some of the English as well as the German cutlers are making razors by the drop forge method. In this way a remarkably cheap razor can be pro duced, but as the quality of the work In so fine a piece of cutlery has to be considered the remark of Kuskin that there Is "no such thing as cheapness" would seem to apply ia this instance). TWO OIRLS IN A BUQQY. They Gar a Grand EihlbtUoo of the Art of Driving. Two young women in the country on a two weeks' vacation took a drive the other day. says a faithful chronicler. They hired a safe horae and an old buggy from the farmer at whose house they were staying, and started out. Each knew she had no skill with the reins, but each pos sessed boundless faith in each other's power as a jehu. They went along very comfortably for awhile, for the road was straight and the horse as safe as he had been described. But by and by the driver wished to turn. You'd better turn him." said one. Oh. I can't" said the other, shrinkingly. . You do it" They discussed the matter for some time and at last drew lots for it The victim of the hazard took the lines with trembling hands and a palpitat ing heart and pulled the left rein so vigorously that the horse made a quick half turn, and the wheel grated against the side of the carriage. The sensible beast stopped and looked around inquiringly. The tug on the left rein continued and there was an admonitory Jo on" from the driver, spoken in a fierce, though quavering tone. The horse resigned himself to circumstances and went on. The carriage turned a little fur ther, hung for five seconds poised on the front wheel and then oareoned over. The girls shot out one after the other, for all the world like two bags of meaL As the horse advanced a couple of steps the carriage righted itself. He looked around, saw the vehicle was empty, and with a snort of contempt set out for home at an easy trot -The two g'rls sat still where they had been thrown, their feet stretched straight out in front of one another, and watched their retreating equipage out of sight Then they arose, picked up the buggy seat the whip, the lap-robe. the halter, the horse sheet the mat and a box of candy and walked the way they had come. By the time they reached their boarding place the farmer had his bill ready for prospective repairs to a dished wheel, a broken spring, a broken fifth wheel and three cuts on the horse's legs. The girls went back to town next mornin?. They have come to the conclusion that open cars are nearly as pleasant as buggies, cost less and are very much safer. ON THE BANKS OF THE NILE Standi the OMest Obelisk, Constructed Thousands of Tears Ago. From the Pall Mall Gazette: The old est of all the obelisks 1b the beautiful one of rosy granite which stands alone among the green fields on the banks of the Nile not far from Cairo. It is the gravestone of a great city which has vanished and only left this relic be hind. That city was Bethshemes of the scripture, the famous On, which Is memorable to all Bible readers as the residence of the priest of On, Poti pherah, whose daughter Asenath Jo seph married. The Greeks call it Heliop- olis, the city of the sun, because there the worship of the sun had its chief center and its most sacred shrine. It was the seat of the most ancient uni versity of the world, to which youthful students came from all parts of the world to learn the occult wisdom which the priests of On alone could teach. Thales, Solon, Eudoxus, Pythagoras and Plato all studied there; perhaps Moses, too. It was also the birthplace of the sacred literature of Egypt, where were written on papyrus leaves the original chapter of the oldest book in the world, generally known as "The Book of the Dead," giving a most strik ing account of the conflicts and tri umphs of the life after death, a whole copy or fragment of which every Egyptian, rich or poor, wished to have buried with him in his coffin, and por tions of which are found inscribed on every mummy case and on the walls of every tomb. In front of one of the principal temples of the sun, in this magnificent city, stood, along with a companion, long since destroyed, the solitary obelisk which we now behold on the spot. It alone has survived the wreck of all the glory of the place. It was constructed by Usertesen I., who is supposed to have resigned 2800 B. C, and has outlived all the dynastic changes of the land, and rtill stands where it originally stood nearly forty seven centuries ago. What appears of its shaft above ground is sixty-eight feet in height, but its base is buried in the mud of the Nile, and year after year the inundation of the river de posits its film of soil around its foot and buries it still deeper 'in its sacred grave. Fight. 'ns for an C-ive'-a. A Frenchman died not long ago and left a large estate, which was divided among the heirs without quarreling all but an urebrella which had been in the family for over fifty years. This was fought for in a live ly way, and the aid of the court had finally to be invoked to quiet the dis turbance ' Timely Warning. The great success of the chocolate preparations of the house of Walter Baker & Co. (established in 1780) has led many misleading V3 of their name, labels, and wrappers.

"TRILBY" WAKES UP JOHN BULL U lias Jnst IHacnverad That Jonathan's Literary Judgment Was Correct. Our British cousins did not take very strongly to "Trilby" when that novel was first put upon the market, sayB the New York World. The English critics, who are a very clever and high sal arled lot of gentlemen, Instantly an nounced with a suddenness of percep' caption and immobility of conviction peculiar to the British isle that there was really nothing in the book, and the British public, which has been waiting with strained ears to catch the manl festo of the critics, at once came to the same conclusion. Shortly afterward the work became extremely popular In America, and when they heard this the British critics and the British publlo threw their hats up in the air and ex claimed aloud in a frenzy of joy and self-congratulation : "Did not we say long ago that there was nothing in 'Trilby?' " And "Is it not now proved that we were right? The great American public has approved of 'Trilby.' The great American public never approves of anything that is worthy of approval; therefore, oh, it is so plain, 'Trilby' is trashy." But now two years have passed and the sad news is flashed over the cable that the discerning British public and critics have succumbed. They now acknowledge "Trilby" as their queen, They have the "Trilby" craze. They wear Trilby shoes. They give Trilby teas. The women buy Trilby garters, The concert halls are all giving Trilby burlesques. In fact, "the Trilby lnfec tion" (so reads the cable dlspach) "has worked in the slower English blood a fever no less violent than that from which America recovered months ago. The craze has Invaded everything and become almost insufferable to the Americans in London. More than 100, 000 copies of the book have now been published here, and the demand is un satisfied." If the British public keep up this hustling there is every possibility that they will adopt the sleeping car in time, Ready Hand and Tongue. During the Columbus celebration in New York a. reporter did not have his card sufficiently exposed. With out the card, of course, he had no business outside the lines. A police man grabbed him by the collar, and with a dexterous twist swung him around and landed him three deep in the crowd. "You have' made a mis take," suggested the reporter, hold ing up his card. The policeman reached over the heads of the outside of the crowd, got another grip on the reporter's collar, and. with another dexterous twist put him back where he got him from at the same time saying, with the utmost courtesy, beff vour nardon. sir."

For my own part I know of nothing more contemptible unmanly, or un womanly and craven than the over- lasting sighing for happiness. Those who have the most of it think the least about it But in the thinking about and doing their duty happiness comes because the heart and mind are occupied with earnest thought that touches at a thousand points the beautiful and sublime realities of the universe! The heart and mind are brought and reverently oe it said in contact with the Creator and Ruler and Father of all the perfect bliss.
