I have just been down to tlie land
iii2 to see what could be done about
shipping matters. There are three
bdiooners running here now and two
more will be on before long. The steam
er M. D. Hume just left. The tug
handles the schooners and steamers
nicely. I saw and talked with Mr.
Hume's agent, 3Tr. Thompson. He
says that Mr. Hume stands, ready to
ship all the goods ordered to Smith
River and that Hume made all the
necessary arrangements to have goods
safely stored and landed, at the fishery,
and that the charges from San Fran
cisco, storage, loading ic. will be for
the present 5 per ton loaded aboard of
wagons. Mr. Hume says he could re
duce the rates if there was' enough
shipping to justify. I advised Mr.
Thompson to go to your county and
talk with all cf you. Parties are try
ing to build a warehouse at the Corn
ers so as to make it handy. I will go
to Crebcent City to day, and will write
from there full particulars. We have
the N. F. bridge completed in good
shape and will have the road done as
promised April 1st. I tkiak youi can
get hauling from this side at 2 cents as
they haul -chrome at cent and it takes
1C days to niako 2 cents whereas they
could make 2 cents- in 11 days ou the
road. There aie several large learns
fitting up here. Please give this in
formation to all whom it may concern,
so as to save me writing so many let
ters as I am in a hurry.

Gen. Wall tells me he will always give

freight will be hnded here at 53 per ton,
though 1 think if a muve was made in
the right direction it might be ob
taiped at a lower rate possibly 54.
at 4i anyway.
There" is talk of Wall k Wagner
building a new wharf, also talk of re.
pairing and rebuilding toe old road via
Peacocks to Low Divide. It is hard
to make them believe here that there
will be much freight shipped over the
mountains hence they do not like to

A Ilouiciuailc Telephone.
The "American Fanner" gives the
follon ing directions for making a cheap
home-made telephone:
To make a good and i erviceable tele
phone, good from one farm house to.
another, only requires enough wire
and two cigar boxes. Fiisttelectyour
boxes, and make s. hole about half an
inch in diameter in the center of the
bottom of each, and then place one in
each of the houses you wish to. connect;
then get Jive pounds of common iron
stove-pipe wire, make a loop- in one end
and put it through the hole in your ci
gar box and fasten it with a nail; then
draw it tight to the other box, support
ing it, when necessary, with a stout
cord. You can easily run your line
into the house by boring a hole through
the glass. Support your boxes with
slats nailed across the window, and
your telephone is complete. The wri
ter has one that is 200 yards long and
cost forty-five cents, that will carry mu
sic when the organ is played thirty feet
away in another room.
A prominent citizen of Now Tacoma

CKOVTIU OE Htllt AXD..N AILS AFTEIt:

The following extract fronv the
"Acts of Leipsic," maypossibly be-of
interest: "In the year 1719 a woman
was interred at Nuremberg in a wood
en coffin. Thejarth wherein her body
was deposited was dry and yellow.
In 1761, the grave was dug up anew.
To the surprise- of the digger, he per
ceived a considerable quantity of hair
that had made its way through the
crevices of the coffin. The lid being
removed, there appeared at perfect re.
! semblance of a human figure, tho eyes,
nose, mouth, ear?, and all other parts
being very distinct, but from the crown
of the head to the soles of the feet it
was covered with very long, thick and
frizzled hair.
Tho learned lTonoratus Fabri (lill':.3,
Do Plantis), and several other authors,
are of the opinion that hair, wool,
feathers, nails, horns, teeth, etc., are
nothing but vegetables. If that be-so
we need not be surprised to find them
growing on. the bodies of animals after
death, a circumstance that has occa
sionally been observed. Petrus Bor
elU pretends that thase productions
may be transplanted as vegetables and
may grow in n different place from
that where they first germinated. He
cites in some observations on tho sub
ject, among other examples, that of a
tooth drawn out and transplanted,
The transplanting of teethu has, of
late years, become quite common. In
the "Philosophical Collections" of Mr.
Hooke, it is stated that a man hangpd
at Tyburn for theft was found shortly
after his removal from tbe gallows to
be "covered over in a very extraordi
nary monner with hair."
In a letter addressed by Dr. Barth
oline to Mons. Sachs, which is inserted
in the "Acts of Copenhagen-," occur
the following words:
"I do not know whether you ever
observed that tho hair which in peoplo
when living was black or gray, often
after their death, in digging np- their
graves or openin; the vaults where
they Ice, is found changed into at fair
or il.ixen color, so that their relations
can scarce know them again by such a
mark. The change is produced, tin
doubtedly, by the hot and concentrat
ed vapors which are exhaled from the
dead bodies."
During the Crimean war nn officer
well known for his fine beard died, or
was killed in n oi?or. He was bur'er1,
wrapped in his blanket. A little
while afterwards his body was ex
hurued, for some reason, and it was
said that his beard had grown through
his blanket.
mm aj: i?
A sb.ort time ago a bri 'lit looking
Danish boy stepped into a lawyer's
office and said:
"I want yc-u to tell me, who am I!"
laying a $j bill on the desk at the
same time.
The lawypr, peeping alternately at
the boy and at tho bill, shaking his
head, replied:
"It seems that jou are i funny boy."
"Not funny at all; you will find it a
verj serious matter."
"Well, go ahead and explain it."
"About twenty years ago a wea'thy
Danish lady, being a widow, came over
to this country with her two daughters.
There was a Norwegiin and his boy.
ITlio father married boh the widow's
daughters. One year after, the Nor
wegian's boy married the wealthy
widow. The result of that marriage
was the birth of another boy, and if I
am sure,Iaru that boy. TheNorwegian's
boy died. Tho Danish widow was a
widow again, but the old Norwegian
married her, too. After that the old
lady died, and one year ago the gen
tleman, too, after he made himself the
owner of his third wife's property.
Now, when I claimed that property,
mj sisters said: "Stop you can't be the
heir at all! You are our late husband's
grandchild. By her marriage with
him you became your mother's grand
child, too, and after she died we be
came your mothers, and you never
can inherit the property before we are
dead.' Thats what my sister mothers
say, but I think that can't be right and
and there must be some mistake in pol
vgamy. Now sir, please tell me what
I am; who I am."
The lawper, thrusting his chin into
neck, answered pathetically: "You ate
a polygamistakel" "Tribune."
A Jl'ltlCIIITs WIFE.
She inquired of three different per
sons in the corridor of the Postoffice as
to where the Money Order department
was, and not feeling satisfied with this,
she asked at both stamp windows.
Then' sho felt reasonably certain that
she would not go down cellar or up
stairs in going to the money order
room, aud sho timidly entered that
place aud asked:
"Can I send a money orderl"
"Yes'm."
"For 551"
"Yes'm."
- "To my husbJird?:' " '
"yes'm. Please fill out a blank."
She filled out three different ones be
fore the writing suited her, and tried
four different pens before she fonnd a
holder of the right build and color.
"This order is for 55," abu said, as
she stood at the window.
"Yes'm."
"He went there to secure work, but
he-can'' find any."
"YesW
"And ho wonts to come home."
"No doubt of it."
"But5 seems like an awful price to
bring anyone from Saginaw."
"So it does."
"He might not get work if he came
home." N
"No, ma'am."
"And :o he might as well be there.""
"Yes'm."
"Well, I guess-- I'll wait a day or
two, anyhow. If he finds woak ho
won't want it, and if ho gets tired and
comes home on foot he can't more than
half j iw around. Five dollars is quite
a sum. lean buy a nice pair of shoes
for that."
Messrs. Conrath and Guerraz, well
known stock men, says the Like Coun
ty "Examiner", came in on Tuesday
from Sau Jofe, having conic around via
Portland and the Dalles. They had a
pretty cold trip acros the desert from
Prineville. Mrs. Conrath accompan
ied them as far as Paisley. From Mr.
Conrath we learn that it is their inten
tion to stop at Prineville during the
remainder of the winter, and that they
will make that place a base for their
operations next year, the reason gicn
being that cattle are more plentiful
and cheaper than at Lako county. Mr.
Conrath also informs us that cattle on
the desrt are standing out tho winter
in good shape, and that there will be
but a slight loss. They are all in
good condition, as evidenced by the fact
that beef cattle are now being driven
to the Portland market from tho win
ter ranges without feeding. The sea
son is new so far advanced that thcro
is little danger of sarious loss.
The Highest Mountain Peak.
For many years Mount Everest, in
Nepaul, has been considered the high
est mountain in 'he world, reaching
the respectable height of 29,002 feet.
Dhawalgire and Kuchinjingn, in the
same range, with about 2S,QJ0 feet
each, shared the honor between them
until Major Everest, of the Bengal En
Sincere, discovered their big brother.
Before they were measured, Humboldt
thought soul,) points in the South
American Andes reached tho highest
altitude on our globe. But quite re
cently Capt. J. A. Lawson has dis
covered in the little-known island of
New Guinea, a peak that is still high
er, which he has appropriately called
Mount Hercules, and fixes its elevation
at 32,78G feet above the level of the
sea.
According to the Seattle "Post-In
telligencer" wages in logging camps
never were higher than they have been
lately. The lowest has been $30 a
month and board, which is given to no
vices in the business, and from which
they quickly rise- to G0. Choppers
get S75 and 580, and teamsters S100
$110 and S120. The work of the
teamster, though, is by far tho hardest
in the camp. At present little is doing
in the woods, the camps generally pre
paring for heavy work in the spring,
when an unprecedented onslaught will
bo made an tall timber.
Yseka, March 29. Mrs. Luddy,
an elderly lady, was found in a ditch
about five miles north of Callahan's.
She was missing since Sunday. The
ditch was only thrpe feet deep. She
had been having much trouble with
her neighbors about water. The cor
oner's jury found that she had been
strangled by parties unknown.

Senator Tabok and the Drummer.
They, tell a new story on- Senator
Tabor, of Colorado. It is ralatcd that,,
when Tabor was on the Kansas Paiiflb.
train going to Washington- tO'thUe hist
seat, he met a Hebrew drummer who'
had knov.n lua 3ome time by reputa
tion. To "ix- the time they engaged
in a game of en,. lire. The play was
even until the clnt of the second game,
when the drummer leuoived four kings
and an eight-spot. A ipit-rn was turn
ed up.
"Great Godd," said the drummer.
"Mr. Dabor, I vihst it vas boker. If.
vo vas playin boker I vood-bet you mvf
whole "bun dell."
"How much isyourbundlel" asked
tho noble - cnator from Colorado.
"Two hundred fifty tollar," replied
the drummer.
"Well," replied Tabor. "If you.
give nie tho queen which is turned, I
will go you."
"Tun," baid tho drummer and Tabor
picked up the queen.
"Dot ees a shnap," whispered, tho
drummer, showing his hand to n man
in the next seat.
" I fhould smile," answered1 the
man laconically.
N "Vood you like to bet somo more,
Meester Daborl'' asked the commercial
tourist with an insinuating smile.
'Yes," said tho noble Senator, "I
have a fair ha'ud; I will make it S500-.""
"I haf only fifty," replied the drum
iner, and he made his bet good for
5300.
What have you got, Meester DaborF'
"Four acos," answered Colorado's
favorite son, showing tho fatal one
spots. The drummer was perfectly
paralyzed, nnd was unable to- speak,
while tho noble Senator stowed the
pot in his togs. Stawly drawing a
cigar from his pocket, Colorado's favor
ite was about to light aud withdraw,
when tho drummer recovered his senso
of speech. Leaning forward! he said,
"Eet ish all right, Meester Dabor; you
haf won the money sgquare; but great
Godd! Mr. Dabor, vat had dor g-veen

Headache. The Boston "Journal
of Chemistry" thinks that the head
aches that many thousands wake up
with every moruing are brought about
by kerosine lamps "turned down low."
A small flauio in a lamp chimney does
not cause enough draft to- iusure com
plete combustion, anil sluiuberrra
breathe carbon and carbonic acid gas as
literally as if they stood over the chim
dcy of a pctrolium refinery. A little
light may bo supplied in a bed chamber,
if any is required, by a specially pre
pared taper, by a candle, or by a wick
floated in animal or vegetable oil; but
tho turned down kerosiuo lamp can
not bo used except to one's discomfort.
Dr. Haley says that as a rule a dull
heavy headache, situated over the
brows and accompanied by languor,
chilliness and a feeling of general dis
comfort, with a distaste for food, which
sometimes approaches to nausea, can be
completely removed in about ten min
utes by a two-grain dose of iodide of
potassium dissolved in half a wiue
glassfull of water, this beiny sipped so
that the whole quantity may be con
sumed in about ten minutes.
To Render Silic Lustrous. Th
following bath is recommended for
rendering black dyed silk more lus
trous and shining: Dissolve two
pounds of soda crystals in ten gallons
of water. To this bath olivo oil is
added in sufficient quantity, and until
the oil begins to float on the bath.
Tho addition of acids to this bath is
not recommended, but if the silk has
to be deprived of the whitish shine it
acquires in the above bath, it can bo
L washed in water in which citric, tar
taric or ascetic acid has been dissolved
A Lilliputian Infant. Mrs. Ma
rion Poe, wife of a prominent merchant
of Chattanooga, Tenn., on Thursday of
