A Sad Affair at a Camp Mecting. THE SISTER OF THE PRESIDING ELDER BITTEN BY 4 COPPRRHBAD.

One week Rome Mrs. Deitzel Accompanied her brother, Saylor, to the large camp meeting in ve, near Sinking Sprit rs, Deltvel had an apartment in the large family tent of Mr. Schnader. Thismorning at 5.20 Mrs. Deitzel arose and went to the stove, just back of the tent and reached down under the stove to get some kindling wood that had been placed there todry. When her left hand had been withdrawn from under the stove Mrs. Dettzel experienced aslight pain. She saw a drop of blood on the top of the knuckle of the fist finger of the lett band. She thought probably a splinter had ricked her or that a Wood mosquito or a spider had stung her. She patd no attention tit 1! as her hand and arm commenced sweiling and getting suf she became alarmed. An hour after she had reached under the stove she mate ‘arm known, and there was found und: stove, [n a coll, a polsonous copperii snake. Mrs. Dettzel swooned to feverish excite- ment.

In the latter state the cry welcoming new settlers is now so enthusiastic as to trehch upon feverisa, A state board o7 immigration has just been formed, and the Lewspapers pay far more attention to the mat- ter oF nliing up the farm lands than they do to Bronze Jobn, who knocks at their back door. Agerciles of the board are being established tn Scotland and Germany, as well as in Boston, New York and Cincinnati. A hundred thou- sapé pamphlets, in which are set forth mineral and egricultural resources, the manufacturing advantages, transportation facilities and acces- sibility to markets, will be distributed in va- rious parts of the country. The whole state is excited, but in the northwestern counties par- lcularly are the citizens anxious that new men and new ideas shall be taken in. One ~gnn tl Ping of the agitation will be a rousing wow in the city of St. Joe. President Byes as promised to be present, and tt 1s proposed to miake ne pete the Freagee ever heid in the w railroads have agreed to put down ihe fare so ‘that 511,000 excursionists from various points will be entertained, and what with flreworks and bopfires St. Joe expects to get a grand boost towards glory. 10,000 copies of a map of northwestern —— have been sent out, and one agent in Ei TO} to take 300 farms and 50,000 acres of wi id {and for the Lape “a of acolony of dissatistied labor- ers.—(P" TuE Latest DODGE OF THE Among the many devices used by the ungodly Who covet thew —- of their Neighbors and endeavor to get them at all hazards, was a new one to the city practiced during the races. It had its origin in the silver ‘Di, and can be traced to the large quantity of that coin that is flooding the country. It was played successfully on several of our merchants, and the modus op:- randi is as follows :—A party enters a store and contracts for a small purchase, say twenty-tive cents is the amount. He then throws dowa a five or ten dollar bill, stating he has no objec- ton to taking silver in change. This ls duly counted out, and the person draws it near hini. Just then another party enters, recogaizes the first, calis Lim by name and asks him what he is biying. ‘The purchaser is prompt in giving tbe information, and the other one say you don’t want all that silver, take yi back and I will pay the quarter.” This Sition is accepted. The bill is returned, ‘on! —— Mav. the quarter ts paid by Dumber two and tbe silver change lying on the counter 1s pushed back to the storekeeper or clerk.
