I lived there with my father in the south part of Adams, just about half a mile north of the Cheshire line. Soon after supper I and two or three other boys took our sleds and went out for a const. We had a great time, I tell yo; we'd start on a little hill, 'side of a pond, go down with a rush and buzz, away to the other end of the pond. Oh, it was grand sport! But that hasn't any- agrain, It was 'long about the time when we were getting ready to go home that it began to snow gently, and Isaw a flash of lightning. 1 spoke to the other boys about it, but they didn’t see it, and laughed at me. T felt sure of it though, and when wo reachéd home I told my folks of it. My stars, what fun they did make of me. Ha, ha! They couldn't wmake enough jokes, and so they repeated the same ones over and over, and seemed to enjoy them just as much as if they were new. When I went to bed I felt heartily ashamed of myself for having seen 80 ridiculous and impossible a thing a8 a flash of lightning in midwinter, and was half convinced that I had been mis- taken. ot long after midnight we were awakened by a terrific crash which st the whole house a trembling. Startin, out of bed the room was suddenly lighms by a vivid flash of lightning,which lasted, it seemed, several seconds, and was fol- lowed by a fearful thundering. Boo! it makes my blood run cold even now to think of it. T got down stairs as best I could, and there found the whole family —gals and woman folks and all, all hud- dled together, their teoth chattering with fear and their eyes bulging out of their heads, ‘Dad,’1 whined, has the world come to an end? n-no,” he stammored, “‘but it is a coming fast, an’ we're all burning up,’ Just then there was another flash, and when it was over I looked out of the winder and saw at once what dad meant; the snow was all on fire! It was falling fast, and as it struck the greund it became red like flame, and glowed as if it would burn up everything. Then gradually faded until another flash came, when it all burst out again, Where the snow lay on a dead level this was not noticeable, but on the fences, the pig-pen, the house, the tip- cart, dropping from the branches of the trocs, wherover there was a projection of any sort, it glowed and shone like liv- ing flame.” gl‘ha old inhabitant leaned back in his chair, clasped his hands together, and looked away through the distance of years and his face became solemn as he thought of the fear the curious spectacle created. “Were you much frightened?’ ques- ticned one of his listeners, “Frightened! That ain’t no word for it. I was scared, sir; scored so much that I nigh shivered myself into the hereafter on that night. Why, that blinding lightning would flash into our eyes, and tho thunder came simultane- ously, and the old house would go br-r-r-r-r-ugh? trembling in every beam and ratter. That continued for several hours, and we staid up, never daring to go to sleep—huh! we couldn’t "a gone to sleep in that racket, and that fearful glow and burning kept up on the snow. I can't describe it, you'd ought to have seen it yourself. Red fire that lit up the yard and road so that you could see the objects and distinguish them, and see the snow come falling s eadily down like as if it would bury us under a man- tle of flame. As we learned afterward, all our neighbors round in that part of the county were justas much disturbed as we were. Morey Jinks, a friend of our famlly who lived in those parts, was riding on horseback that night from Savoy hollow up to the Center, and I've hencf him tell many a time how shook up he was with fright, for his horse’s mane and ears were flaming red, and the bridle reins were just two strings of flame reaching from his hand to the bits. “There was another man riding out that night, too; they're both dead years and years ago, This man was Dr, Cush- ing, & very famous physician at that time, known and respected all over the north- ern part of Berkshire. He was riding home from a visit to—to—well, never mind; the name has slipped from me. He was out through all the storm, and noticed the same things that Morey Jinks told of, but he wasn't so scared as the rest of us. He acknowledged that his hair was inclined to rise, but he was determined to find out what it all meant, 80 he rode up to the most convenient ob- ject that showed the flanie. This hap- pened to be a blacksmith shop, the eaves and sides of which seomed to be burnin; up. His horse was dreadful skittish, ane aaw the fire as well as he did, and hated to go near to it. But the doctor reigned him right close up to the shop, and when Eu ot there the horse was so frightened that she dropped down on her knees, u:{:::b mg like a leaf in the wind. Dr, O g poked oft the blazing snow with the butt of his riding whip, and he used to tell how it fell to the ground like drops of flame, still glowing. He kept his senses about him, but I guess consid- erable more'n half the people in that part of the county thought the world was surely coming to end. What would you think, now, with all your modern eddication, your science and philosophy, d what not, if you should see the fall- ing snow and the cold earth all in one grand blaze of flaming fire! Hey? Come, now, don'tyou think you'd be a leetle disturbed? Do I thi you'd be calm and indifferent! Not a mite nor a grain.” And the oldest inhabitant settled back as if he had finished a dispute, and you could not induce him to say another word on the subject, Do not bo deceived; ask for and Bouglass and Bonw Bapuiowm Couh , a0 Soro Throsis. ery Drop. o only B.j1 Drops for Couggh, D, 8. and Trade Mark o — Bronco Sam, Fiom Puck, Speaking about cowboys, Sam Stowart, knoi\)v‘:kfivm Montana to Old Mexico as Brouco Sam, was the chief, His special delight was to break the warlike heart of the vicious wild pony of the plains, and make him the servant of wan, across the boundless plains in the crisp wmorning, on the back of a fleet Bronco; but when you return with your ribs Afick(:finthmumonr vest, and find that your nimble s has returned to town two hours ahead of you, there is a tinge of saduess about it all, Bronco Sam, howiever, made a speci ll:’ . o thing to do with my_story, not a mite or |, ante! d There may be joy in a wild gallop nppnm' ’J’: fal wouldn't onter into any compromise and allow the horse to ride him. In a reckless moment he offered to bot £10 that he could mount and ride a wild Toxas steer, The money was put up. That settled it. Sam never took water, This was true in a double sense. Well, he climbed the cross-bar of the corral gato, and asked the other boys to turn out their best stecr, Marquis of Queens- bury rules. As the steer passed out, Sam slid down and wrapped those parenthetical legs of his around that high headed, broad horned brute, and he rode him till the tleet footed animal fell down on the buf. falb grass, ran his red hot tongue out across the blue horizon, shook his tail convulsively, swelled up sadly and died. It took Sam four days to walk back. A $10bill looks as large to moas the Star Spangled Banner, sometimes; but that is an avenue of wealththat had not occurred to me. I'd rather ride a buzz saw at $2 a day and board. n making the assertion that Pozzoni s Mod smplexion Powder is entirely fr from injurious or deadly poisons, we do it up- on the anthority of a thorongh c analy- wis, 1t is one of the oldest face powders in the American inarket, and is used in the families of some of our most prominent mey who have personally nckne [roprictor that they not on| joss, but esteemed it high respect, not only for the dren, but for the “lord Sold'by all druggists Oave Citles in Arizona, 5 creation” himself, Mr, James Stevenson, of the geological survey, has reported to Maj, Powell, as one of the results of his field operations Inst resson, the discovery of several more runed cave and cliff cities, differing in some respects from any he had before examined, The most remarkable was a village of sixty-five underground dwel- lings, situated near the sdmmit.of one of the volcanic foot-hills of the San Fran- cisco mountains in the San Juan region of Arizona. The surface stratum of the hill had by exposure bocome hardened, and formed the common roof for the entire community, The dwellings were excavated atter a common pattern, and a description of one gives an idea of the whole. They had no intercommunication beneath the surface, and were only acces- siblo by means of square holes leading from the surface by a vertical shaft to the floor of the main room of the dwel- ling. Foot-rests—holes at convenient distances—along the sides ot the shaft served the purposes of a stairway. Descending the shaft, the explorers found themseives at the side of an oval- shaped arched-roof room, about twenty feet in its smallest diameter. At the ends and in the side opposite the entrance row doorways connected the main room with smaller rooms, the whole suite or dwell- ing consisting of four apartments. Ono of the smaller rooms had its floor exca- vated to a depth of two or three feet be- low those of the other rooms, and is sup- posed to have served the purpose of store- room or celler for the ancient occupant. The other small rooms may have been bed-rooms. A groove eighteen inches doep by fifteen in width, extending from the floor of the main room up one side of the shaft to the surface of the hill—its bottom filled with ashes and its sides blackened by smoko—form the fire-place and chimney of the establishment. Around the mouth of the shaft a stone wall was found, forming by its inclosurea kind of dooryard to the dwelling below. The wall doubtless served the double purpose of guarding against snow slides, which might otherwise fill up the rooms and bury the occupants, and against the accidental fall of an inhabitant into his own or his neighbor’s dwelling, upsetting the dinner pot, and possibly breaking his neck in the operation. Considerable de- bris was found in these ancientdwellings, an examination of which led to the di covery of curios, illustrating some of the social and domestic customs of the ex- tinct race. Stone mauls and axes, imple- ments used in excavating the dwellings, pottery bearing a great variety of orna- mentation, bone awls and needles of deli- cate workmanship, the metate or family grinding stone for krain, its well worn surface indicating long use, shell and ob- sidian ornaments, implements of wood, the uses of which were undiscoverable, were among the trophies of the explora- tion. Search was made for a water- course, or spring, but no appearance of the existence of water in the neigh- borhood during recent centuries was discovered, There were signs of inter-communication between this village and a cliff city some fifteen miles distant, and alsoa new discovery, which indi- catos the contemporancous inhabitaney of the two. This city, or rather clustor of villages, occupied the sites or a canyon which has recently been christened Wal- nut canyon. It is an immense fissure in the earth, with nothing above the gon- eral level of the country to indicate its existence to the traveler until he stands upon the side of its almost precipitous brink. The sides have been gullied by storms and torrents, leavn shallow cave-like places of great length at differ- ent heights, along the bottoms of which, wherever the ledge furuished sufticient area, dwellings in groups or singly were built. The season was well advanced when the place was reached, and only little time was spent in its exploration. All the ancient methods of approach had been long before worn away, and acces to the nearest of tho groups of houses was a work of difficulty. The group or village which was most narrowly examined was about three. quarters of a mile in length, and consist- ed of a single row of houses, the com- mon rear wall being the living rock, while the sides and fronts were made of largesquared stones laid in clay. A narrow streot or pathway extended along the entire front, Other and similar villages could be seen along the canyon for a dis- tance of five milos, Among the relics found there was a wooden spindle whirl eimilar to those in use hy the Pueblons of the present time, but unlike them in the apparent manner of its manufacture. Nothing indicating the use of motallic tools of any descrip- tion was discovered, The lur{mu of the wcod of which the whirl was formed had apparently been charred and then ground down to the required size and shape by rubbing it upon sandstone, A shaft of reed sumilar to bamboo, a species en- tirely unknown in that region at this time, still” remained in the whirl, It had been broken by the ancient workman and neatly mended by winding about it a piece of fine twine, The ends of this twine being examined under the microscope disclosed the fact that its fiber was very fine humun hair. Articles of wood corncobs, and even the perfect grains of corn, walnuts, bones of elk, olf, portions of wearing ic resembling the mum- my oloth of Egypt, but made from mate- rial unfamiliar to the explorers, aud other perishable articles were found in abundance, buried in the piles of debris, which partially filled these deserted homes, and would at first thought seew to indicate somewhat recent inhabitancy. On the other hand, however, the pre- servative qualitieg of the atmosphere of this region are remarkable, and it is the belief of the explorers that centuries have elapsed since the last of the departed races ooeupicd these old cities and villages as houses, The absence of weapons of war, of works of defense, other than such as are constituted by the selection of almost in- accessible localities, of temples or idols, of hieroglyphies or pictures, together with the durability and solidity of the dwellings, so different from anything to be found of the handiwork of exi ized races of that region, wide extent of these ruins indicating the existence of allied races covering large portions of the present territories of Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah, as well as northern Mexico, are the elements of the problems invoived in the origin, history, and disappearance of theso races —problems which seem no nearer solution than whenCoronado, nearly four hundred years ago, made a raid for tho purpose of conquest among these places and, through his priests, gave Yo the world the first meager accounts of them— then, as now, » | vacant and ruined.

CHARLES SHIVERICK, The Doctor.Killing Oregons, Benjamin Alvord, in Harper's Magazine for February 1 was in the Dalles of the Columbia in command of the military post in the spring of 1853 (before there was an im- migrant farm east of the Cascade moun- taing), when several of the chiefs of the small tribes of Indians in that vicinity, Waskows, Wishrams, and Des Chutes, called upon me, with an interpreter, to | nvoke to suppress a most extra- | ordinary custom which prevailed among them of killing their ({nu(nu' or medi- cine men, if they did net cure their pa- tients. During the previous winter three doctors in that neighborhood had been killed for that reason, and it was done by the relatives of the decensed. I told them to return at a designated day, abeut a week later, bringing as auditors 1 all thore they wished to be present, and To All Floors. 1 would give them in a formal council a regular talk on the subject. - ST — BEDDING AND MIRRORS, by — OMAHA, NEB.

I then 3 dwelt upon the sin and crime of private S 3 revengo and retaliation. If a murder was e committed, the punishment should be b jo administered, not by the kindred of the murdered man, but in the name of the law, under the anthority of the whole tribe, aiter careful sifting and weighing of the evidence of guilt, and of evil and malicious intent. To permit the punish- ment of the accused to be administered without investigation by a brother or son or father of the person killed only leads to indiscriminate slaughter and the deve- lopment of evil pasa‘ons, If they wished to check this unfortunate custom of kill- ing doctors, they must first make known this new law, and afterward arrest the next offender, and after carcful trial and assured evidenco and conviction of his guilt, he should be sentenced to be hung. To punish the criminal by shooting him with a rifle would not be sufficient. To prevent, mark, and stigmatize the crime wo did not shoot the murderer, but, putting a rope around his neck, we had the criminal suspended from a tree or scaftold until he was dead. All this was said to them slowly, in plain words, and in brief sentences, giving the inter- proter a fair chance to convoy my mean- ing, The sequel was as follows: About three months afterward, in midsummer, tho small pox made its appearance in one of the tribes, viz., the Wishrams. _Among this tribe was a celebrated medicine-man of great protensions.
