A guide in the Yellowstone park tells
the following:
Us fellers had the mostest fun when a
Washington cove named Hall went
through the park. That was about three
years ago, when the "Beehive" geyser
just broke loose, and everybody was hot
for aeein the "Beehive."
Wall, os drivers had heerd tell as how
this Hall waa pow'rful smart at srinon
ixin, so we all piles np ter the chapel.
I ain't much of a judge, bnt I think it
waa about as ordinary a piece o' preach
in as I ever heerd. Never heerd a shout
from the amen benches, an not a soul
got religion, an I don't think much of a
parson as can't stir up more excitement
than that So my pal. Geyser Bob, he
was there,' and said he, "I bet 1 know a
feller as can empty that whole room
quicker than a coyate can kick." "All
right," sei L and I knowed there was
goin ter be some fun, bnt 1 was a bit
afraid that Bob was a goin to shoot: but
he didn't He just yells in the door. "The
Beehive is spoutin!" an inside of ten
seconds there wasn't but six people in
the bouse besides the preacher, an he

Vhu Wigs Wei Popular.
Writers transmit to us some curious
facts in regard to the demand and sup
ply of false hair when wigs were in
fashion. The trade in wigs, for France
supplied all the rest of Europe, became
immeuse, and was represented in Paris
by a large number of wholesale mer
chants, who employed cutters to operate
in the provinces, especially in Normandy,
Flanders and Holland, where the hair of
the women was finer. The hair of warm
countries was not wanted, because too
coarse. English women and girls did
not care to part with their hair, and
were not so poor as to be forced to the
sacrifice. Some villages in Normandy
furnished as much as ten pounds, aver
aging two feet in length. .
The price was from four to five francs
a pound, and it was cut from the heads
of the living, from the heads of the
dead or sewed after combing, each kind
having its commercial name. The great
demand at last rendered the supply so
scarce that horsehair had to be used in
stead or in part. Cincinnati Commer

Queer Place for a Tree. '
"One of the most unique sights I have
ever seen on my travels," said Arthur
Thomas, of New York, is the old court
house in Greencastle, Ind. I was in the
town the other day, and my attention
was called to a full grown tree. Now,
the curious thing about this tree was
that it didn't grow on terra firms, but
on the tower of the court house. The
tree sprouted years ago from a crevice
in the bricks of the tower, and it devel
oped year after year, until now it is a
foot or more in circumference at the
trunk. It is one of the most curious
tree growths I have seen anywhere. It
will have to go soon, however, for the
county is going to construct a new court
house. It seems a pity that it cannot be
preserved, for it is a fine specimen of
erratic tree growth. Cincinnati Com

A ROMANCE OF RICHES,
Tin To of Rouaavllla, Wliaro an Am
Waa Worth 4,000,000.
This la the oldest town. In tlis Pennsylvania
oil regions, having been the Brat town to
spring Into life under the wonderful tinmlua
of the oil xeiteinent It ia located on Oil
creek, two and a half miles above Oil City,
and it was here that the third well was drilled
for oil, and on the McKlkamiy farm, a short
distance above Roiisevllle, the flrst real
"anouter" was struck. This was the famous
Fountain well,' which flowed a stream of
oil over the top of the derrick, high above tin
talleat trees in the neigh borhood, and started
the great rush of people Into this wonderful
region. This was once a great oil metropolis,
with banking offices, score of hotels and all
the commercial facilities of a city. Being so
near to Oil City and Petroleum Center, its
population uever got above 10,000, If It
reached that figure, but it was on of' the
most active cities in the belt of oil. It was
surrounded by some of the wonderful flow
ing wells of early oil days. Ths Widow Mo
Clintock farm, which fell into the poeaemrfon
of Johnny Steele, afterwards known to tits
world aa "Coal Oil Johnny," is within sight
of this town. Like all other oil towns, Rouw
vllle has been swept by lire a uuraber of timet,
and there is but little of the old town left
What Is left of it is a curious old relic, tn
which there to but little to suggest the bustle
and excitement and the fortunes lust aud
won in former days. "Coal Oil Johnny" Is
by no means the only man who found an eaay
fortune within sight of this queer old town.
The first (treat oil fire was here when the
Rouse well was burned, and Henry Bouse,
after whom the town was named, was bin-nod
to death, along with sixteen other men. The
story of this tragedy has been told in tbeo
columns and need not be repented. It was
the most appalling tragedy in the history of
oil fires, and, being the first, it created a won
derful sensation. There has been talk of
erecting a monument on the site of the Are
to honor the memory of the sixteen men who
were the flrst to perish in the development of
the oil region. Cot Drake, who drilled the
first oil well, has no monument yet, aud the
citizens of Rouseville do not believe that
either monument will ever be erected.
If oil were found la a literal lake. Instead
of iu a porous rock, Rouseville, like Petro
leum Ceuter, would have been situated over
a lake of oil A number of big wells were
struck within the limits of the town, and
great "gushers" surrounded the town on
every side. Not only were the Oil creek
flats here wonderfully prolific, but Cherry
run, which empties into Oil creek at this
point, produced some wells only second In
richness to the Oil creek wells. Some of the
largest of these were near Rouseville, and it
can be said that the wells in the vicinity
have produced enough oil to have sub
merged the town. The money value of the
oil taken from the ground near Rouseville is
above SoO.OUO.OUO. The Story farm alone has
produced about 10,000,000 worth of petro
leum, and still has a small production per
hape 100 barrels per month. The first well
drilled at Rouseville, the third on the creek,
as stated, was put down by the primitive
method of a "spring pole engine," This was
no engine at all, but a stout sapling, or
spring pole to which the tools were attached.
Three or four men would pull the spriug pole
down and its spring fc'juld lift the tools for
the next stroke. This was called "tramping
a well down," and as many of them were
tramped down to the depth of 500 and fiOO
feet the operation waa very slow and tedious.
No less than 150 wells were put down on Oil
creek in this crude way before steam was ap
plied to the work. Where three mouths were
often required to drill a well then, one is
drilled now in ten days and even less.
The history of some of the big wells near
Rouseville is the history of many, and will
serve to illustrate the amazing richness of the
oil belt in this section. The Reed well, on
Cherry run, was struck July 17, 1864. It
was located on an acre of leased ground. The
land interest was to receive one-quarter of
the oil aud the owners of the well the balance.
One well was put down, and in ninety days
from starting the drill 7tsa,uuu had been real
ised from it by the working interest alone.
The Mingo Oil company, of Philadelphia,
bought out one-quarter of the land interest in
the well for I2SO.OO0, a ter the owner had al
ready sold 130.000 worth of oil from it. Mr.
Reed, after selling (75,000 worth of oil from
his account, sold to Bishop, Bisaell & Co.
half of bis iuterest for 1200,000. A man named
Frazier bait an interest in the well that netted
him (100,000 in oil, and be afterwards sold his
interest for (100,000 cash. Most of these sales
were cash in hand. The Mingo Oil company
raid (2SO.O00 for their interest in one pay
ment. Three other wella were drilled on this
one acre of ground, and from the foor wella
(2,000,000 were realized. This Is perhaps tu
richest acre of ground ever developed in in
oil country. The original owners were men
of small means, and all became wealthy from
this single transaction. Even the t'lnladel
phia and New York companies who bought
them out at such extravagant figures real
ized handsomely from their investment
There is no sign of the Reed well or any of
its rich neighlwrs now. The places where tb
derricks and tanks stood are grown high with
weeds and bushes, and from the mine of
wealth the spot has returned to its primitive
wildness and worthlessneea. Rouseville (Pa.)

and every afternoon, rain or shine, we gave
our parade. As 1 was the star I instated

This Mexican it far Iwlow the nation's repre
sentative, yet h is not th degraded peou or
serf of tbe land. He Is rather what th peon
has become in tho two generations he has en
joyed the freedom of our government, if not
wiser, at least less servile. Be is generally
admitted to be the resultof a fusion for some
centuries of tbe Spaniard with that mild
trpeof semi-civilised Indian of the Cortes
conquests, but ia nearer th Spaniard, whose
beautiful language, further softened into a
dialect, he still retains. This may b due to
laziness, but Is more probably from the liquid
movement of Indian speech peculiar to sum
of the southern tribes, as shown by the pres
ent language of the Ptmaa and Maricopas of
southern Arizona.
WAIT NOT THE UNATTAlMABLS.
The Mexicans are the happiest of contented
creatures, and, though poverty is their uni
versal heritage, tlioy have no wauts, dean
Jacques Rounwsu must have been among a
similar peasant class in Italy when he wrote
so truthfully that "He only is free who wants
nothing beyond what he can get aud doe
harmlessly as he pleases." There are two
classes of Mexican peasauts, me utoraujes
and the Raucherne. Th former are the
milder, simpler people found sprinkled along
the small canyons and valleys on little plots
of bottom laud adjacent and Irrigated by
slmnle or community ditches called acequias,
which lead from the streams, winding along
the bank in a gradual way till the stream's
lower level will permit them finally to wan
der over the bottom. They bridge no ar-
rovas. build no dams, arches or culverts, and
use only nature's level, water, to give th
grade required tor their canals, in engin
eering ability they are as far behind tb Az

the present Egyptians oenina cneir ancestor

Constipation leads to a multitude of
physical troubles. It is generally the re
sult of carelessness or indifference to the
simplest rule of health. Kugen McKay of
Ilraiitford, Ont., writes;
"I had for several years been a sufferer
from const ipa ion, bad takan a great many
different remedies, sum of which did me
good Tor a time, but only lor a time, men
my trouble cam back worse than ever, I
was Induced by a friend, whom Hsas
nirrn'i Film had benellted. to try them.
I did so, taking two each night for a Week,
then one every night for about sit weeks.
Btnce that time I have not experienced the
slightest dilticulty wbstever, and mv bow.
els move regularly every dav. I believe
(Irmly that for sluggishness of th bowels
and biliousntes Hkabiiszth's Pills are far
superior to any other."
Bolh men aud women hav their (alliuss.
With men It is the bis head; with women the
big hat. ,;
The use of Kly's Cream Halm, s sure cure
for catarrh and cold In head, Is attended
with no pain, inconvenience or dread, which
can be said of no other remedy.
I feel it my duty to say a few words In
regard to Ely's t'ream Halm, and I do so
entirely without solicitation. I have used
it half year, and have found it to be most
admirable. I have suffered from catarrh
of the worst kind aver since 1 was a little
boy, and I never hoped for cure, but Cream
Balm seems to do even that. Many of my
acquaintances have used It with excellent
results. Oscar Ostrum, Warren avenue,
Chicago, 111. - ,
Apply Balm into each nostril. It is
quickly absorbed. Gives relief at once.
Price, 50 cents at druggists' or by mail.

It aot bach
all tha money you've spent for
it if there's neither benefit nor
cure. That's what ought to bo said
of every medicine. It would be
if the medicine were good enough.
Bat it is said of only ono medicine
of its kind Dr. I'icrco's Golden
Medical Discovery. It's tho guar
anteed blood-purifier. Kot only in
March, April and May, when tho
sarsaparillaa claim to do good, bat
ia every season aod In every case
it cures all dioeases arising from a
torpid liver or from impure blood.
For all Scrofulous, Skin and Scalp
Diseases,- Dyspepsia, Indigestion
and Biliousness, it is a positive
remedy.
. Nothing else Is as cheap, no mat
ter how many hundred doses are
offered for a dollar.
With this, you pay only for the
good you get.
And nothing else Is "just as
good."
It may be "better" for the
dealer ; but you art the one that's
to be helped. - -' -
