The managers of a German railroad which is now being built in Eastern Alrica, where tne climate is most oan gerous to white men, recently offered positions to civil engineers at 11.125 per annum, station masters a 11,000 and locomotive engineers at $900. Sir Arthur Sullivan, the musician, has invented the "Sullivan safety shaft," a device to be attached to car riages to save life in case of runaways or similar accidents, by releasing the horse from the carriage. The inven tion, which is to be put on the market at once, is primarily due to the death of the late Countess of Latlioni, which filled Sir Arthur witW a Ui w pre vent similar catastrophes. "Recently, after the Bock Island wreck at Volland," says the Kansas City Journal, "Dr. G. H. Kittle, of Monndridge, Mo., pnt in a claim against the railroad for $1,920 on ac count of gold lost. The company thought it unreasonable that a country dentist should be getting so much gold at one shipment, and so it combated the claim.

Captain Dwlght Hunt, with two companions, has heen in llaines tills week, outfitting (or a ptospeating tour in the Porcupine mining district, says the Porcupine Quill. Captain Hunt and partv renietunt an oxtonsive com iiany, known as the Jack Crawford (poet nd scout) party that went to the Hootalinqua last season over the Dyea route, equipped with dredgeia, and who have been unsuccessful iu the Yukon and are trying the present sea. son to retrieve their III luck by operat ing in the Atlin and Forty-Mile dig gings in the Yukon. Attiaotod by fa vorable reports from the Porcupine die trict, the mannger of the company, Henry M. Wallace, a prominent" lawyer ol Ann Arbor, Mich., placed a detail of opeiatora under chaige ot Captain Hunt, who is an experienced prospeo tor, and sent them here to prosecute intelligent examination ot the quarts and placer claims in American Alaska in this vicinity. They are also going to give special examination of the hy draulio propositions which are reported favorable. In event they are success' ful in their search they will bring in a large outfit this season of modern by draulio machinety and permanently establish the headquarters of the com pany which have large capital at their control under the Stars ami Stripes, and abandon the Northwest Territory propositions, where they are sorely handicapped by unjust ilisornn inations and exactions. The party will be ready to start early next week, and are now getting their boats anil outtitr over the trail to the Chilcat river. Kxciteruent Runs High. Mr. Cole, the mail agent for Porcu pine City, brought down on his last trip a small pile of gold dust taken from claim No. 1 above Discovery, on Porcupine creek. It was the partia output of the first washout by the use of a sluicebox ou that claim, and was sold to S. Weitsruan for (35. Mr. Cole aavs the miners on Mc Kin ley and For cupine creeks are just beginning to take out gold, and the field soon will astonish the nations. The water u quite high, and only the elevated rim rock can be worked, but as the work progresses the claims are growing rich er, excitement is running high and daily arrivals of prospectors are large. A Stamped. Expected. Since the arrival of samples of coarst gold from the placer mines on the Por cupine and McKiuley diggings, th mists of doubt that have been thrown over that district by the "giubstakers" who have done no active work except to hang around the camp, "waiting for something to turn up," have disap peared, and a feeling ot confidence es tablished. In fact, nothing but tli beat of reports are being brought in daily, and if developments continue at they are now going on there will be a genuine stampede inside of six weeks Lara-. Cannery Deetroyed. D.3." Mnnn's cannery on Bea island. B. C, was completely destroyed by fire. The tannery was one of the largest on the North Arm, and general ly bad the largest pack for that branch ef the river. The cannery was fully equipped with everything necessary for the season's work and all the nets were banging in readiness to be taken out for the sockeye rnn. The loea on the cannery, stock of cans, machinery, etc., is estimated at (65,000, on which there was only (45,000 insurance. Btraek a Quarts Ledge. William Eetinghonsen. of California, who has been prospecting along the Chilcat river tor the past four months, struck a ledge of quartz about four miles fiom Haines. His discovery covers a ledge five feet between walls, and evidently carries a large percent of copper and gold. Mr. Estinghouspn has followed mining for several yean in Alaska and California, and is satis fied that bis discovery possesses great wealth and will take immediate steps to develop it. New Alaika City. Jim McCloekey, of the Arctic, hat returned from the Ketchikan mining district, which he reports as a promis ing district. "Ketchikan," says Jim, "is going to be quite a city, as it al ready baa one large store and about 40 bouses. The townsite is being surveyed and the prospectors are flocking in by the dozens. One noticeable feature ol the district is the copper-stained ore, nearly every sample coming from that district being literally covered with the stain." Great Racing Erent Saturday, July 1, the trotting and running races commence at the Irving ton track, Portland, snd will continue until Juiy 8. Judging by the horse! that have already been entered for the different events, it ought to prove a success in eveiy way. Opening day, ladies will be admitted to thi track and grandstand free of charge. On all other days 25 cents admission will b charged. This includes a seat in the grandstand. The admission fee for gentlemen on all racing days, includ ing grandstand, will be 60 cents. Good racing and popular prices will nndoubtedly prove great drawing cards Peacock Copper Proepeet. Mr. Sheldon brought to Haines' Mis sion several fine specimens of quart2 taken fiom a ledge near town. The specimens were highly crystallized with peacock copper and other mineral whichr resembled gold. The specimens attracted a great deal of attention and favorable comment from experts. The vein his samples were taken from is about eight inches in width, with good prospects of growing wider as be pro ceeds with development work. Death In th. Ilaplria. The Klondike rush of 1809 lias al ready had its list of dead to be record ed. Frank Kane, hotel man, of Doug las island, and Charles Monlt, of the Hotel Lindemann, Dyea trail, while trvmg to cross Bennett in a Peterboro canoe, wera capsized and drowned. Freah Meat Famine. A fresh meat famine existed at Haines the front end of last week. A like condition of affairs in the market is reported as existing at kagway by reason of the nonarrival of expected beef oattle. Buinner lrW Works. The Fugot Sound Wit Nail A Steel Company, now the property ot the American Steel Iron Trust, baa closed down and the nail and wire ma chines will be shipped to the Waali buin & Jioii Company, at Ban Fran cisco. F. W. Mitchell, ot Mitchell. Lewis & Stuver Company, ol Seattle, is inspecting the buildings, machinery and site ot the nail works with a view to purchasing them and moving the iron works theieto. It the deal ia made It is the intention of the Sumner iron works to at once go into the looo omtive building on a .large scale. Mill Oeetrojed by Fir.. The Kromm chopmill, at Genesee, Idaho, hits been destoyed by tire, which is supposed to have been started in the engine-room. At the time of the fire some tour or five tons of chopped feed was on hand. The 14 horsepower gas oline engine, valued at (1,100, will not lie a total loss, as it is believed with a fow extras it oan be placed in running order again. The insurance was or.lv (1,000, which will nowhere near cover the loss. Cannery to He Erected. George W. Sanborn has purchased S0O feet of water front property on the KHt aide of th Seaside cannery, and expects to have a cannery built and ready for operation next season, ine plant will be up-to-date and equipped with the latest machinery. Thecal! iiMrv will have nn connection with any other cannery or combination. Bank Incorporat.4. The Med ford bank has filed articles ot incorporation, at Medford, Jackson county.

She nestled down on her aottce. pil lowing tho Bhlnimerlug gold of her head acalnst Its cushions, aud waitea She was irlnd ho had come. Her thoughts traveled back to their first ineetlnir that day on the front at Brlirhton. and bIio smiled as she re called the gust of wind that caught her handkerchief, n seen tod scrap of hioo and cambric, aud carried It flutterlug to his feet Ho was young, a mere boy In fact, nnd singularly handaoiue, aud he actually blushed as he restored the trlilo. There was something frank and fresh about him few of her men frleuds ever Mushed and hor tenden cies were suflicleutly Bohemian to ren der more formnl Introduction unneces sary; before the week was out he had lunched aud dined at her hotel. Time had flown for her sluce then; bright summer days spent drifting among the tipper reaches of tho Thames, with the heat of the afternoon lazed away In somo shady backwater: morning drives to some old-world retreat among the Surrey hills; afternoons on the lawns at Hurliugbaui, strolling, talking, tea drinking among the smartest In the land, with the band of the Guards crashing out the masterpieces of great German composers. Interspersed with melodies from the Casino. They had been friends, nothing more, but eneh day bad brought n fresh delight, and Bhe had been happy. Now It was to end; he had come to say, "Good-by." "It seems almost like a dream," she murmured; "I wonder what I shall do without hlmr The hangings Bwayed aside, and the boy advanced with outstretched hand. She smiled aud gave him hers without rising. "Sit down," she said, "and have some coffee, unless you prefer something atronger." , "Coffee, thanks." he answered, drop ping Into a chair beside her. She poured some, out and handed it to him, together with a tiny box of tortoise-shell and silver. lie laughed softly as be opened it and saw a row of miniature cigarettes. "Ah I so you indulge, it appears. How often r "Oh. somctlmesr "And 1 haven't known It nntll this momenta Will ygu Join me nowJ" offering the case. "No, thank you; I prefer to see yon smoke. There Is a match beside you." He lit one of the cigarettes and puffed away In alienee, until a blue naze had gathered about bis head. Then he look ed across at her. "I am going abroad," be said, abruptly. , 'Are you sur prised?" "Assuming that yon mean some hor rible tropic" be nodded "yes, I am. I suppose it means the loss of every thing that has made your life pleasant In the past yes? aud the gain of whatr . "Nothing." "Then why go?" She leaned back, clasping her bands behind her head, and her sleeves, fall ing, disclosed arms as smooth and white as Ivory. Their glances met and she asked again, "Why go?" . "Because I have no choice," he an swered. "Look hero, Madge, we've been friends, jolly, good friends, and God only knows bow I shall get on without you; I will be perfectly frank, and tell you Just how It stands. My father, as you ' know, was a country parson. He ought never to have put me through Sandhurst; It was beyond bis means I often wondered bow he managed to do all bo (lid, but I really knew nothing of list affairs until his death last year. I found out then that he never did have much beyond bis pride, and It appeared that towards the end be had dabbled in stocks and shares. Well, you know what happens when parsons walk Into bucket-shops; there was barely enough loft to keep the young one at Sandhurst. That Is why I am exchanging for the West Indies." lie looked up thoughtfully at the smoke cloud wreathing from his cigarette. "Of conrse I shall see some thing of life. I have seen little so far; school, Sandhurst, nrr outlandish depot in the west of Ireland, and town." "Do you want to go?" . "One cannot always do what one wants," She shrugged her shoulders beneath the billowy lace and muslin of ber deml- toilette, and there was another pause. "How strange It will seem when you have gone I shall feel quite lost by myself.". She spoke softly, In a tone almost Of soliloquy, watching hlin closely to see tho effect of her words. He made no reply, and she went on, "When one has so few friends, It Is bard to lose them the places are so bard to fill." He winced at that, and a memeutary gleam flashed in her eyes. It will seem strange," she repented; "l wonder If you will ever think of me often, I mean?" "I hope not," he replied; "I want to forget you." That was all she wanted; the simple directness of the answer conveyed more to her than any outburst of pas sion could have done. The rest was jr. - A Boy's Love. - After awhile he rose to hl fH't.

TRACING SUIOIO& Itellev.il that Uuaultubl. Diet Uoa an Injurious Kffoct. Dr. Hulg Is ot the opinion that sui cide may bo traced to error In diet, tho error being the eating ot meat, the drinking of beer aud of tea and thu smoking ot tobacco. Ills facts all full comforlubly luto their places In sup jHirt of bis hypothesis. Are there not more suicides among men than among women, aud do uot men consume more meat, more beer aud more totMicco than the women? Again, suicide Is more common Iu Kngluud than In Scotluiid, not apparently becuuse the Scotch are a more canny race, but because the English eat more ment aud drink moro beer, while the Scotch eat less meat aud drink whisky distend of beer. Af ter ntalutiiliitng that sutcldu wus less common among the Scotch, It was per haps hardly polite, when addressing a Scotch audience, to go on to say that suicide increased with civilization. But tho fact was explained on tho ground of more Injurious diet, that of clvlllxed man being more productive of uric acid aud thus of suicide than that which prevails where civilisation is less advauccd. Uric acid Is, In fact, at the bottom of all this, nnd, according to Dr. Halg, the Incidence of suicide tallies with the dally, auuunl and life fluctuations of uric mid In the blond, being coiiimouest when uric add Is most abundant, namely, In the morn ings. In spring and summer and iu childhood and the full prime of life. We have no doubt that errors of diet aro resiKHislble for much, and, among other things, for a certain uumlier of suicides; nay, we could go further nnd admit that tiusuJIuble diet, derange ment of the proper relation between nutrition and wasto and tho conse quent loading of the tlsHUes and the blood with abnormal products of meta bolism have much to do with that lu teinper and discontent which lend men to lay their bauds violently upon their neighbors aud sometime on them selves. All this may be taken for granted, but It is at present far from proved that tho peccant material Is in all cases the same, and still further are we from being agreed that uric acid Is the origin of the evil. Hospital. Giants ot Patagonia. The tribes to tho cast ot the Cordil leras, Iu southern Patagonia, belong; to Araucaulan stock, and are a superior race. Tho Tchuclches as they cull themselves ot southern and eastern Patagonia ore the people whose tin usual stature gave rise to the fables of the early days to tho effect that tho natives of this region wero glnnts aver aging nine to ten feet In height. It Is a fact that they are the tallest human being In the world, the men averaging but slightly less than six feet, while Individuals of four to six Inches above that mark are not uncommon. They are In reality by no means savages, but somewhat civilized barbarians, They are almost unacquainted with the nse of firearms, notwithstanding some contact with the whites, but they have plenty of horses and dogs. Unsurpassed hunters, they capture the guanaco nnd the rhen, or South American ostrich, and from the skins of theso and other animals they make clothes and coverings for their tents. They make beautiful "capos," or man tles, of furs aud feathers which are highly prized by Europeans, and find n ready market, most of the proceeds being spent for bad whisky, which Is brought Into the country In quantities, Boston Evening Transcript Tho Garden of f-'den.
