Yhe weather had been rough and there was a foot and a half of snow and slush in the street.

Shiloh’s Cure . and CORNISH CUSTOMS Origin of “Furry Day”and “Taking Sunday.” How the Gallant Son of Cornwall Winsa Blooming Lass for Life. [BY EDGAR L. WAKEMAN—Neé. I11.] Two of fhe curious atid interesting customs of Cornwall are the annual ‘‘Furry-day” of Helston and ‘Taking Sunday” with its attendant peculiarities at Clowance: Park, in Clowan Parish.The origin of the Cornish Furry Day is unquestionably found in the ‘‘Floralia,” anciently. observed by the Romans on the fourth of the calends of May. It is annually celebrated throughout Cornwall by © little -homeand neigt borhood “parties, “and: at Helston, fromtime immemorial, a+ a festivity peculiar to that. place, on the eighth day of. May. Long ‘before daylight’ happy groups of. lads and Jasses start in every direction for the country lanes and hedges singing: ‘For we are up as. s00n as any duy, O, And for to fetch the summer homes The summer and the May, 0, And the winter is a-gone, 0!” — or a dozen other ballads of similar import, the refrain of which is: “On the eighth of May The Flora-day, : We all set. off a-dancing.”’ “ina indeed do they. At every farm-house there are mad rushes of these merry-makers to be tiret to hang a twig of ‘‘sloane’’ blossoms upon the latch ; for such for centuries have been eutitled tv a portion of bread and créam. The blossoms of the “‘sloane,”” a kind of cherry, are gathered everywhere, with®all precious buds and blooma of spring. Gurlanded with hese the floral troopers return to Helston, when the festivities ef the day really begin. The old town ie fairly, embedded in spring blossoms and garlands. This completed; ‘all classes join in a Universal carnival of dancing. Every door ia Helston is thrown open to the merry marauders. Arm inarm, end usually four abreast, thousands, dancing to a sort of quickstep time and accompanied “by Mayday songe, pass in the front doors of houses and thence from the rear tu frent of other houses; and from dawn to dark weave serpentine threads of blossom, odor and song through the old Cornish towa. ‘faking Sunday” in Clowan parieh, i@ not only the: precursor of Mazard, Fair ut Praze, but alsoof numberless’ life-long joys and pathetic miseries. fu Clowance Park, on the noted St. Aubyn’s estate, isa magnificent mall, bordered with some of the noblest beech trees in all England. On the afterneon of the Sunday two weeka before Mazard Fair—which derives its name from the mazard-cherry fair annually held at Prage, in the latter part of Jane, when tons of this luscious fruif’ are disposed of by the farmers of the surrounding country—ten thousand Cornish youths and maidens miay always be tound promenading in Clowance Park mall. They sometimes come from a distance of ten or twenty miles. Cornish young men resurt here t6 chooee their ‘‘pairdcers" or*‘company” for Mazard Fair, and here the blooming lasses come to be “‘taken,”’ that is, pledged for Mazard: fair day. Many an exultaat or broken heart returns home that night, successful in the secretly-cherished bope, or stinging from bitter disappointment. But Mazard Day come, the Cornish lad walks miles for the girl he has chosen on “Taking Sunday,” and together they tramp away to Praze. The experiences of these thousands of young folk are in the main the same as at all English country fairs. But the marital destinies of all Cornwall are said to center here. It is: glorious thing to the kon” at Clowance Park; but her whole fate bangs upon a parcel of cookstitute the “‘ferin,’’ or pledge of bemarried through this curious troth. read from the pulpit. _ [of time, without a ‘‘feyin.!’ she meets the gossiping crones. ee?” sneers some crooning old wench, to farther wound her.

Down aga ountain Track Bohind ; a Runaway Team. _ on night I wae crossing the Sierra Nevadas in a stage. I was the only passenger aboard, and hence had a lonely and dreary night of it: The long, slow pull of the ascent had consumed all of the forepart of the night and much of the early morn. It was abeut 2 o’clock when the summit was reached, says.a writer in the Detroit Free Press, all unawares-to either myself Or the driver in the front—for in the tediousness of the long climb, and the silence and solitariness of the surrounding, we had fallen fast asleep. Suddenly there was a sharp rolliag of the wheels, a violent jostling of the seats and we both awoke to the consciousness that we ware going down ~-& runaway team in front. When th» dowa-grade had been struck the driver—usvally a careful and vigilant man—as so fast asleep that brakes were not applied as promptly as was necessary, and the horses finding that they were not under control, with the heavy. stage ‘rushing upon them, becama_at once frightened, and fled in frantic: speed down the steep ascent ; Wher the driver first awoke and réulized the situation he was in midaiff having been ~ violéntly thrown from’ his seat. He had bal the lines wrasped about his hands and wrists, and holding fast unconecieusly, . he was being jerked forward in the furious leaps of the team. Yetit was but a moment or two until he struck the ragged ledge below the roadway, and [ discovered my situation ae I heard him utter a horrible” shriek, and then a low moan _as of one in the death agony. By this time the lower wheels of the stage were off the roadway; the stage itself was on the edge of the fearful precipice and the axle: of the vehicle being dragged along over the stone wall that supported the lower side of the road-bed . The, scream of horror piercing my ears emphasized the frightful situation for the driver was not only being dashed to his death, as I supposed, in the darkness below, but there was the awful possibility-that-in the next moment the stage and. the horses would go over the_ brink and land in the dismal unknown abyss of canyon beneath. The driver was pulling with all his weight in the direction of that abyss. I detsrmined to make an effort to save my life, if possible, in a leap upward. So TJ aprang.oitt of the stage in a desperate jamp from the’ higher side. I reached the ground in gaféty, but not a moment too soon. The stars wore bright overhead and through an upening in the forest trees around on sither hand, { saw the “leaders” of the teana making a deeperate effert to avoid being pulled over the precipice, the lines still in the hands of the diiver below, the man clinging to the-ribbons with the clutch of death; and the rongh stone edges of the lower wall of the roadthe axle had to be dragged forcibly over the uneven surface, With swift decisien of mind I saw what must be done to ttay the tray@dy, so I jumped to the front, seized the leader by the bridle rein, and at once pulled his face square to the upper bank. I thus stopped the horses and kept the stage on the road. But where was the driver? This was the harrowing thought now in my mind, for tlie man’s cries were hushed. Againand again I cried—louder and wilder and deeper in my distress. But I heard nothing in responee save the mocking echoes and the heaving sound of the restless horses. It was the most terrible ssoment of my life— terrible beyond expression. Hope grew stronger, for the next moment came another and atill another grean, this time from a man evidently with vital energy and a rallying struggle. Soon the driver crawled, half dead, up the bank, but the only thing he reemed to be thankful for, and the only fact he appeared to appreciate, was his courage in holding on to the lines while he was being dashed and dragged about on the rocks below! In the darkness the first thing he wanted seen was the manner in which he had performed the fearful feat. of—holding the reins! I, still trembling, held the frightened horses against the upper bank; doing all that I could to quist the fears of the panting beasts. By the aid of matches we soon had a good light, and the situation was fully revealed. The poor driver was fright> fully mangled and torn, one err being well nigh severed frem the head as he struck the sharp edge of the rookes below. [ tied up the man.as bent I could, we mended the broken stage and got it back into the road, and then came the slow and cautious and painful dethe range. . ——— . not sick enough to consult a doctor,— we will tell You just what you need. cheerfulness. es Schilling’s Best.

A Nevada City Mant’s Way of Doing tt, Waldo Waggoner, a civil and mining engineer of this city, has been closely observing weather signs for sorne time past and has hit upon a series of indications that he finds to be surprisingly reliable. Said Mr. Waggoner to the reporter today: “Tt may be of valna to those who are interested in the weather to remember that tha rains we are having are on the wings of the great cyclones brought to this country by the Japan current. They strike this coast along the shores of Washington and Vancouver Island, moving eastwardly through Idaho and Montana, across the gteat lakes, and disappear inthe Atlantic ocean. “Preceding and during these rains the wind blows from a south easterly direction towards:the storm center, tle point of the lowest barometer, which is usually off Vancouver Is: land. Sometimes the storm center remains stationary for: several days, owing to a high-barometer in Idaho and Montana. The rains are prolonged fo that extent, as was illustrated by the rain of last week. __ ee “When the storm crosses Washington the 1 ¢al rains then occur, with the wind from any quarter, until an equilibrium of temperature is again estubliched . & _ “With sufficient fall in temperature the rain is congealed. into snow. When the thermometer is at 50 in this city it is snowing at Truckee. When at 40 it is snowing at Dutch Flat. “By noticing the weather reports in the San Francisco papers close prognostications of the approach and end of a storm may be made.”’ PEMsuNAL MKN'TIUN.

A Wloucer Nevada Countyan’s Narrow Escape. ‘Reno Journal: In April, 1888, W. T. C. Elliott killed J. D. White, his wife’s uncle, near Big Pine, Inyo county, Cal. He was tried at Independence in July, 1888, convicted’ of murder and sentenced to be hanged. The case was appealed to the Supreme Ceurt, which reversed the judgment of the lower Court and ordered a new trial given to the defendant. The venue was changed and Elliot was tried at Bakersfield, Kern county, California, in Mey, 1890. The jury disagreed; eight being for acquittal aud four for conviction. A third trial took place at Bakersfield last December, the jury disagreeing as before, eight being for Elliott was then discharged from custody upon his own’ recognizance and on the 13th ultimo on motion of the Dis'rict Attorney ‘of Inyo-county the case was dismissed. Judge Hayden, of Reno, und Jno. R._ Kittrell, formerly Attorney General of Nevada, defended Elliott from beginning to end. He was well known in Nevada and Honey Lake Valley, California, j.and he resided in Reno for some years, having located here after the White Pine excitement. He acquired the soubriquet of ‘Rough’ by reason of of his being an ogicerof a company at Rough and Ready, California, in early days. ; FrulteGre wiag Points.

Shiloh’s Cure . and CORNISH CUSTOMS Origin of “Furry Day”and “Taking Sunday.” How the Gallant Son of Cornwall Winsa Blooming Lass for Life. [BY EDGAR L. WAKEMAN—Neé. I11.] Two of fhe curious atid interesting customs of Cornwall are the annual ‘‘Furry-day” of Helston and ‘Taking Sunday” with its attendant peculiarities at Clowance: Park, in Clowan Parish.The origin of the Cornish Furry Day is unquestionably found in the ‘‘Floralia,” anciently. observed by the Romans on the fourth of the calends of May. It is annually celebrated throughout Cornwall by © little -homeand neigt borhood “parties, “and: at Helston, fromtime immemorial, a+ a festivity peculiar to that. place, on the eighth day of. May. Long ‘before daylight’ happy groups of. lads and Jasses start in every direction for the country lanes and hedges singing: ‘For we are up as. s00n as any duy, O, And for to fetch the summer homes The summer and the May, 0, And the winter is a-gone, 0!” — or a dozen other ballads of similar import, the refrain of which is: “On the eighth of May The Flora-day, : We all set. off a-dancing.”’ “ina indeed do they. At every farm-house there are mad rushes of these merry-makers to be tiret to hang a twig of ‘‘sloane’’ blossoms upon the latch ; for such for centuries have been eutitled tv a portion of bread and créam. The blossoms of the “‘sloane,”” a kind of cherry, are gathered everywhere, with®all precious buds and blooma of spring. Gurlanded with hese the floral troopers return to Helston, when the festivities ef the day really begin. The old town ie fairly, embedded in spring blossoms and garlands. This completed; ‘all classes join in a Universal carnival of dancing. Every door ia Helston is thrown open to the merry marauders. Arm inarm, end usually four abreast, thousands, dancing to a sort of quickstep time and accompanied “by Mayday songe, pass in the front doors of houses and thence from the rear tu frent of other houses; and from dawn to dark weave serpentine threads of blossom, odor and song through the old Cornish towa. ‘faking Sunday” in Clowan parieh, i@ not only the: precursor of Mazard, Fair ut Praze, but alsoof numberless’ life-long joys and pathetic miseries. fu Clowance Park, on the noted St. Aubyn’s estate, isa magnificent mall, bordered with some of the noblest beech trees in all England. On the afterneon of the Sunday two weeka before Mazard Fair—which derives its name from the mazard-cherry fair annually held at Prage, in the latter part of Jane, when tons of this luscious fruif’ are disposed of by the farmers of the surrounding country—ten thousand Cornish youths and maidens miay always be tound promenading in Clowance Park mall. They sometimes come from a distance of ten or twenty miles. Cornish young men resurt here t6 chooee their ‘‘pairdcers" or*‘company” for Mazard Fair, and here the blooming lasses come to be “‘taken,”’ that is, pledged for Mazard: fair day. Many an exultaat or broken heart returns home that night, successful in the secretly-cherished bope, or stinging from bitter disappointment. But Mazard Day come, the Cornish lad walks miles for the girl he has chosen on “Taking Sunday,” and together they tramp away to Praze. The experiences of these thousands of young folk are in the main the same as at all English country fairs. But the marital destinies of all Cornwall are said to center here. It is: glorious thing to the kon” at Clowance Park; but her whole fate bangs upon a parcel of cookstitute the “‘ferin,’’ or pledge of bemarried through this curious troth. read from the pulpit. _ [of time, without a ‘‘feyin.!’ she meets the gossiping crones. ee?” sneers some crooning old wench, to farther wound her.

Down aga ountain Track Bohind ; a Runaway Team. _ on night I wae crossing the Sierra Nevadas in a stage. I was the only passenger aboard, and hence had a lonely and dreary night of it: The long, slow pull of the ascent had consumed all of the forepart of the night and much of the early morn. It was abeut 2 o’clock when the summit was reached, says.a writer in the Detroit Free Press, all unawares-to either myself Or the driver in the front—for in the tediousness of the long climb, and the silence and solitariness of the surrounding, we had fallen fast asleep. Suddenly there was a sharp rolliag of the wheels, a violent jostling of the seats and we both awoke to the consciousness that we ware going down ~-& runaway team in front. When th» dowa-grade had been struck the driver—usvally a careful and vigilant man—as so fast asleep that brakes were not applied as promptly as was necessary, and the horses finding that they were not under control, with the heavy. stage ‘rushing upon them, becama_at once frightened, and fled in frantic: speed down the steep ascent ; Wher the driver first awoke and réulized the situation he was in midaiff having been ~ violéntly thrown from’ his seat. He had bal the lines wrasped about his hands and wrists, and holding fast unconecieusly, . he was being jerked forward in the furious leaps of the team. Yetit was but a moment or two until he struck the ragged ledge below the roadway, and [ discovered my situation ae I heard him utter a horrible” shriek, and then a low moan _as of one in the death agony. By this time the lower wheels of the stage were off the roadway; the stage itself was on the edge of the fearful precipice and the axle: of the vehicle being dragged along over the stone wall that supported the lower side of the road-bed . The, scream of horror piercing my ears emphasized the frightful situation for the driver was not only being dashed to his death, as I supposed, in the darkness below, but there was the awful possibility-that-in the next moment the stage and. the horses would go over the_ brink and land in the dismal unknown abyss of canyon beneath. The driver was pulling with all his weight in the direction of that abyss. I detsrmined to make an effort to save my life, if possible, in a leap upward. So TJ aprang.oitt of the stage in a desperate jamp from the’ higher side. I reached the ground in gaféty, but not a moment too soon. The stars wore bright overhead and through an upening in the forest trees around on sither hand, { saw the “leaders” of the teana making a deeperate effert to avoid being pulled over the precipice, the lines still in the hands of the diiver below, the man clinging to the-ribbons with the clutch of death; and the rongh stone edges of the lower wall of the roadthe axle had to be dragged forcibly over the uneven surface, With swift decisien of mind I saw what must be done to ttay the tray@dy, so I jumped to the front, seized the leader by the bridle rein, and at once pulled his face square to the upper bank. I thus stopped the horses and kept the stage on the road. But where was the driver? This was the harrowing thought now in my mind, for tlie man’s cries were hushed. Againand again I cried—louder and wilder and deeper in my distress. But I heard nothing in responee save the mocking echoes and the heaving sound of the restless horses. It was the most terrible ssoment of my life— terrible beyond expression. Hope grew stronger, for the next moment came another and atill another grean, this time from a man evidently with vital energy and a rallying struggle. Soon the driver crawled, half dead, up the bank, but the only thing he reemed to be thankful for, and the only fact he appeared to appreciate, was his courage in holding on to the lines while he was being dashed and dragged about on the rocks below! In the darkness the first thing he wanted seen was the manner in which he had performed the fearful feat. of—holding the reins! I, still trembling, held the frightened horses against the upper bank; doing all that I could to quist the fears of the panting beasts. By the aid of matches we soon had a good light, and the situation was fully revealed. The poor driver was fright> fully mangled and torn, one err being well nigh severed frem the head as he struck the sharp edge of the rookes below. [ tied up the man.as bent I could, we mended the broken stage and got it back into the road, and then came the slow and cautious and painful dethe range. . ——— . not sick enough to consult a doctor,— we will tell You just what you need. cheerfulness. es Schilling’s Best.

A Nevada City Mant’s Way of Doing tt, Waldo Waggoner, a civil and mining engineer of this city, has been closely observing weather signs for sorne time past and has hit upon a series of indications that he finds to be surprisingly reliable. Said Mr. Waggoner to the reporter today: “Tt may be of valna to those who are interested in the weather to remember that tha rains we are having are on the wings of the great cyclones brought to this country by the Japan current. They strike this coast along the shores of Washington and Vancouver Island, moving eastwardly through Idaho and Montana, across the gteat lakes, and disappear inthe Atlantic ocean. “Preceding and during these rains the wind blows from a south easterly direction towards:the storm center, tle point of the lowest barometer, which is usually off Vancouver Is: land. Sometimes the storm center remains stationary for: several days, owing to a high-barometer in Idaho and Montana. The rains are prolonged fo that extent, as was illustrated by the rain of last week. __ ee “When the storm crosses Washington the 1 ¢al rains then occur, with the wind from any quarter, until an equilibrium of temperature is again estubliched . & _ “With sufficient fall in temperature the rain is congealed. into snow. When the thermometer is at 50 in this city it is snowing at Truckee. When at 40 it is snowing at Dutch Flat. “By noticing the weather reports in the San Francisco papers close prognostications of the approach and end of a storm may be made.”’ PEMsuNAL MKN'TIUN.

A Wloucer Nevada Countyan’s Narrow Escape. ‘Reno Journal: In April, 1888, W. T. C. Elliott killed J. D. White, his wife’s uncle, near Big Pine, Inyo county, Cal. He was tried at Independence in July, 1888, convicted’ of murder and sentenced to be hanged. The case was appealed to the Supreme Ceurt, which reversed the judgment of the lower Court and ordered a new trial given to the defendant. The venue was changed and Elliot was tried at Bakersfield, Kern county, California, in Mey, 1890. The jury disagreed; eight being for acquittal aud four for conviction. A third trial took place at Bakersfield last December, the jury disagreeing as before, eight being for Elliott was then discharged from custody upon his own’ recognizance and on the 13th ultimo on motion of the Dis'rict Attorney ‘of Inyo-county the case was dismissed. Judge Hayden, of Reno, und Jno. R._ Kittrell, formerly Attorney General of Nevada, defended Elliott from beginning to end. He was well known in Nevada and Honey Lake Valley, California, j.and he resided in Reno for some years, having located here after the White Pine excitement. He acquired the soubriquet of ‘Rough’ by reason of of his being an ogicerof a company at Rough and Ready, California, in early days. ; FrulteGre wiag Points.
