It was but the work of a minute to converge the forty mirrors upon I a spa.ee three and three-fourths inclics by five and three-fourths inches upon the bara.door,and the revelations began. As each mir ror cast its quota, of sunlight upon the common store, the parallelo gram of light grew whiter and more dazzling, until at last it look ed like a patch of electric light. But little patience was required lo await results. In less than thirty .econds a thin, curling puff of smoke gave evidence of the pro gress of the experiment. Tn a moment the board was bursting out in flames. The focus was then shifted upon the zinc. In -a few minutes it began lo turn color; then shrink as if anxious togetaway where it -was cooler, and then in Jess than three minutes the entire surface covered by the focus was literally melting, drop, by drop. To melt zinc requires a tempera ture of over TOO degrees Fahren heit. The most wondeiful feature about the whole thing is the bril liancy of the light. Each mirror adds not only heat but light. The . iforty minors produce a light more brilliant than an ordinary electric light. A hand held so as to inter cept the focus becomes as white as driven snow. A white handker chief defies ordinary sight and con veys but an impression of beauti- ful, impossible whiteness. It is as hard to look at as the sun it self. The possibilities of Mr. Calvcr's invention are boundless. "With a combined square surface of twenty ' feet of mirrors, lead melts quicker than thought, wood bursts into flame and is gone into ashes, and iron melts in less than twenty minutes. Each mirror adds so much to the heat and light, and .Mr. Calver has found by actual experiment that a comparatively small collection of mirrors each one foot square will melt all known metals in a .very few moments, lie has produced over 4,000 de grees of heat with his mirrors. By calculation it is shown that 1,000 mirrors, each a foot square will melt iron and steel with the 'rapidity almost of thought. Wasliing ton Post.

Chailcs Dickens once said that the typical American would hesi tate about entering heaven unless assured that he. could go farther west. '-CJoing west" is still the po- lenl l)h,'f e to stir tl,c bloou of the enterprising and adventurous and the farther west you go the greater seems to be its power. Th' men who lead the advance of ilie anny of civilization on the frontier skir mish line, do not come from the rear. They are always the scouts and pickets. The people of the six-wceks-old town do not como from the east. As a rule they are from the one-year-old ami two-year-old towns a little farther back. Most of the men 1 meet in the Yellowstone country are from eastern Dakota or the Black Rill region, or from western Minnesota. "When -asked why they left homes j so recently made in a new country, their reply was invariably thai they wanted to get farther west. E. V. fimallci in kcplcmber Cen tury. Says Uncle Solon Chase, the Greenback apostle of Maine, in Them Slcers: "1 raise nvy head bravely toward the threatening rock, the raging flood or the fiery tempest, and 1 say 1 am eternal and defy your might! Break all ujion me, and thou earth, and thou heaven, mingle iik wild tu mult; and all ye elements foam and fret yourselves, and crash in j-our conflict the last atom of the body which 1 call mine. My will, secure in its own purpose, shall soar unwavering and bold over the universe, for 1 have entered on my vocation, and it is more endur ing than ye are: it is eternal, and 1 am like itF And then Uncle So lon took his feet off the table and remarked: "1 swan. 1 b'lieve that are hing'll be wuth fifty votes! Aunt Ann, gimme a douirhnut.' As an imitator of "ways that are dark and tricks that are vain' the Indians along the Missouri take the leavened dough. The latest exploit of these savages is to paint the ends of green cotton wood sticks a right brick color and palm it off on the steamboat men for red cedar. The trick is said to be so well played as to be undis tinguishable at the distance from the bank at which the captains usually make their purchase. Verily the savage is fast becoming civilized.

D.iy be fore yesterday n man named Frank T. lUtimiucr, who had been in the employ of the Oregon Con st ruction company, was found dead at thr mouth of Squaw creek, Blue mountains, with three bullet. holes through his head, and head badly crushed. It is supposed he was murdered for his money, as he was known to carry a considerable sum about with him. There is a strong clue to the perpetrator of the erime. " Win.- Cochran & Co. is probably doiiir the biggest logging business of any firm on Pttget Sound. They have utit two large camps all summer, one on lake Union and the other .on Squak Slough. At the lake Union camp ."jOOjOOO feet were put in the water for the mouth of August. The cut on the slough was large, the 1,700, 000 feet now .in Blaek river being all taken out at that camp. He is now opening a logging camp on the Adam Tosh place, where he expects to run all winter with from IS to '22 men and eight yoke of cattle. Knglnmi's occupation of Kgypt must be permanent. To overthrow Arabi and then retire would open the way for other leaders of the people. If he should be hanged as a rebel, which is not improb able, it is believed there would still be the opposing force which has caused the trouble. Tendon Times.
