    L An I2n.'rs!i irrdical mnn who trs
" sent out to IJulmiria to look niter the
. ji hcnltli of English workmen on u raii
f A' vrny had occasion totakon few stitches
! in tlm oj '.ill of his horso. To Pectin?
quiet on tho part of liw dumb patier.i
V lio proposed to administer chloroform,
tuitl cahod upon oho of the engineers fo
assist him. The result of t lie oxperi
uient is told by the ni itant:
"It was settled that we should tak
the horse into a t-hctl thickly strewn
with hay, and that I should administer
tlio ehlorofoi m. This was quickly done,
or rather commenced. The chloroform
w:ls oonri'd on ii thick cloth, find I linltl
J it to tlio horse's nose. At llrst he oo
tfj jectoil and tossed his head, butpresent
. f y n contented look enmo over his face
and ho Mood stock still.
"At this I said, 'It's all right, doe
tor; get ready, ho will soon bo oil.' To
which the doctor replied, 'lam rather
astonished that he has not gone through
the excited stage.'
"Just as lie said this tho horso gave a
sudden plunge which knocked mo over
on my back in the hay, and then ho
commenced tho most eccentric unhorse
Uko proceeding.?. IIo sat up on his tail
and tried to reach tho roof with his
feet. Failing in this ho jumped tip and
lushed into tho corner, where ho did
his best again and again to run up the
wall, tumbling over on his back at each
attempt. Then ho tried to put his
lioad through between both his front
and his hind legs, and so went head
over heels forward.
"I bolted, but will it bo believed that
tho unfeeling doctor held tho door
against me, and only answered to my
entreaties to bo let out, 'Hold it to his
nosol hold itto liis nosol Look sharp
-and hold it to his nosol" and when at
last I succeeded in bursting tho door
open and making my ereapo I was
greeted with contemptuous looks and
words!
"A Ihuey might have liked tho situa
tion. I am not n Raroy, and was very
cautious how I went up to tho beast,
oven after ho had got over his (lurry
and stood stock still, looking very
much astonished, as well ho might."

"There h probably no better known
name throughout tho entire length and
breadth of this country than that of
Buffalo Hill, and there are but few
who do not know that William F.
Cody is tho bearer of tho title. Mr.
ii Cody, however, is not tho original lhif
f falo 1 Sill. There is nothing under-
handed nor illegitimate in his bearing
it. Ho is fully entitled to It, but, for
' -all that, ho comes by it second handed.
Tho original I.uirulo Hill is now living,
mi aged, wealthy, prominent and highly
respected citizen and the president of
n savings bank at Wichita, Kan. His
muiio is William Matthowson. Ho is
Idgh up in tho order of Oddfellows. '
Years ago Mr, Matthowson wasabold
frontiersman on the plains, engaged in
limiting and trapping for a living. He
supplied tho forts in Kansas and Ne
braska witli bulTalo, and his success in
this work was so groat that ho was
given tho title of In Halo Hill. During
this time ho engaged a boy to work for
him, and the lad w.m so diligent and
faithful that ho rcnm .icd in Matthew
son's employ until t..o latter quit tho
business to settle down to a more quiet
life. As a reward tho employer turned
over tho hunting contracts to tho em
ploye, who then followed in his late
master's footstep.. That ho was suc
cessful, that ho earned honor, fame and
wealth for himself cannot bo denied
when it is told that his name is William
V. Cody. With the business rights lie
was given tho title his former employer
had borne. The world knows ho has
kept it bright and that neither stain
nor tarnish has touched it. Chieago

In the mountains tho minors frequent
ly mako their descent into tho valleys by
I using a piece of "quaking ash" bark as a
toboggan, hut oftcner rely on tho tenaci
ty of their heavy canvas ovoralls.
To ro:iio this method of transportation
may stvin absurd or impossible, but it ii
a fact nevertheless; men do go down th"
fearful slopes on the soft snow from th"
top of a two mile ridge in that manner
faster than they ever did on a sled when
a boy.
At the Khedivo lodo tho miners had
long borne a grudgo against tho super
intendent, an overhearing ignoramus; eo
thoy aworo thoy would get even with
him some day.
Tho Khedive was located just two
miles above tho old government road
leading toGothio, at a bond, called "Tin
Crook," and it required an hour's hard
climbing on foot to get up to tho mine
from there.
Ono morning tho superintendent came
ns usual to "inspect," as ho termed it.
but really to curso and rant around be
cause the men could not mako $100 ore
yield $1,000.
Tho minora wero just about tired of
his tyranny and several suggested th"
propriety of giving him a pounding
However, Providence, who sometime.!
advocates tho cause of the poor miner
as well as that of tho rich nabob who
owns the p.- )1)"i,ly, ci..n tJ tho men's
assistance at this critical juncture.
Tho obnoxious stip-rint.'iidcnt was ex
pecting some important instructions
from headquarters, find gave orders that
if a telegram emtio to dispatch a clerk
on horseback until ho reached "The
Crook," and there to discharge his pistol.
While tearing around, cursing tho
miners as was his wont, stiddenly a shot
rang out on the clear air find, looking
down into tho vail ay, till saw a messenger
waving a paper.
The a;j.:ioas superintendent was in a
fix; he wanted that telegram in a hurry,
but knew that tho steep trail would
demand an hour's hard work to reach
there.
At this moment tho wag of tho crew
stepped up to him and offered a big iron
scoop shovel, suggesting that if ho sat in
that ho could go down tho hill quickly
and safely.
Tho superintendent had often seen tljo
descent made on the snow as stated, hu'
ho did not see the roguish twinkle in the
man's eyo as ho took tho proffered im
plement. His trousers wero thin, so grasping tho
handle and sitting in tho concave pari
of tho shovel, ho shot down tho declivity ;
faster and faster ho wont until ho fair!

His seat by tho terrible friction grew
warmer and warmer as ho sped recklessly
on, but there watt no stopping until the
bottom was reached. IIo was literally
roasted; but tho miners had their

Did you over stop to think and figim
up how much loose snow actually falls
in tho I'ourso of an average mountain
Colorado winter? If you have, didn't
tho amount amazo you? At Kokonio' in
188 10, by actual daily measurements,
something like ninety-six feet of tho
beautiful fell lietwcen Nov. 1 and Juno
1. Of course it kept on settling all the
time, and when spring opened up there
wasn't more than six or seven feet on
tho ground. The snowfall at Kokonio is
generally twice or three times what it is
at Dillon, yet tho amount that fell hero
during tho winter of 188!M)() sounds liko
a big yarn, but tho figures given below
aro absolutely correct and wero ear
fully recorded daily by Mr. Pratt at
Ryan Gulch, just north of town.
Amount of snowfall, gauged at a point
ono mile north of Dillon, between the
lirst day of November, 1880, and May 10,
181)0: November, !W inches; December, ill
inches: January, ill inches; February, -1 1
inches; March, 70 inches; April,
inches; May, 17 inches making a total
of L'O feet 10 inches. About eight-tenths
of this snow fell during the night thne.
and nearly one-hulf of it was very damp,
hottliug rapidly as it fell. There figures
ueom preposterous, yet Dillon is not much
of a place for snow either, and gets hsa
of the beautiful than any other town in
tho county. Dillon Ihiterpriso.

vantageously used in tho binding of

special preparation is llrst necessary, and
tho leather may bo bent and straightened
again without iwrceptible damage, a
course of treatment that would destroy
cardboard covers. The metal is covered
with any material that tasto may dic

difference in appearance excepting in
greater thinness of tho cover, which is
always desirable. New York Telegram.
