Tho Bohemia mining district lies pnrtly in southern Lnno nod partly in northern Douglas counties, nntl until tho Inst year or two, was very little known. However, it bids fair to bocomo one of prominence in tho near liituro on account of tho extra ordinary strong and pormanont rvb tom of llssnro reins and its un equaled mining facilities. Tho great porpbyritio dykes traversing tho district for miles through tho nnde sito formation, tlio numorous fissure veins that can readily bo traced across tho ontiro district, tho high altitudo attnincd by somo of tho peaks covered with nn nndesito cap ping, heavily impregnated with iron nil tend to prove its volcanic origin and indicato unusual depth for tho ( many mineralized lodes. From tho precipitous uaturo of tho formation, development work can be aecom t plishcd by drifting, and cross cutting without the heavy cost of . hoidts. pumps, etc., which are inci Idcnt to operations in somo of tho districts of Urn State. Tlio history of tho world's civiliza tion is written in tho history of I ninn's search for gold. Today tl.o ' best brains and untiring energies of every land anil clime nro centered upon the productions of our money notals, and nro engrossed in delving into unture's secrets in an earnest effort to wrest from earth's bosom the precious metals that today rules ! the world and wields a power of ! greater moment than kingdoms nnd principalities. Opportunities for moderate busi ness success como to overy mau at least onco in a lifotime, and to some, fortune nwaits tho opening of their doors Ono such opportunity seized at tho right moment is worth moro than all the "Ships that pass in tlio Night" nnd which wo look for hut nev.-r see. Bohemia with its splendid wagou road and railroad facilities, gives us that opportunity.

The Modern X'lmrmney, Joaquin Miller's Funeral Pyre. "Joaquin" Miller, tho famous "Poet of the Sierras," is known far und wido for his many cccontrieities. Among manj- other things, he is n strong believer in cremation after the ancient manner of the Romans and the devotees of Brabm. When ho shall huve passed away, the 'good, gray poet" desires that his body shall be cremated, and that his ashes be "inurned," and care fully preserved. To this end ho has caused to bo erected on tho crest of "Tho Heights," overlooking fho cities of Oakland, Berkeley, and Ahmeda, nnd tho great Bay of San Francisco, a stone mortuary altar. On tho top of this pyro is a deep depression in tho solid masonry quito large enough to contain a hu man body. After dauth Miller's remains will bo placed in this recep tacle, covered with fuel nnd con sumed after tho opon-nir stylo of cremating iti India. Though odd, yet it is the unique fancy of tho er ratic old bard. With his own aged hands tho poet helped to construct this funeral pyre, on which his body is finally to bo i educed to us lies. Along tho winding ridgoof "The Heights," Miller has also caused to bo erected several largo slono mem orial towers, that are very conspicu ous. One is a pilo of square ma sonry, dedicated to Col. John 0. Fremont, tho famous "pathfinder;" another to the poet, Browning, of who Joaquin is a great admirer, aud a third (of pyramidal shape), which the old poet facotiouuly calls"MoseH' Grave," Many hnndrods visit tho pool to pny thoir respects to him, Few call who do not ascend "Tho Heights" to take a look at those rugged stono memorials. From Tho Pocifio Monthly for January. Legal Life of a Railroad Ticket. A decision ns to the life of a rail' road ticket, which is attracting con siderablc attention, has been ten dered in favor of the Southern l'a ciCc Company by the Civil Court of Appeals at San Antonio, lex. The court has decided that a rail- raid ticket which is not used with in a reasonable time after issuance, is barred by thestatute of limitation. The case arose out of the sale of a ticket by the Southern Pacific on xrril 20. iSSs The ticket was for a trip from Houston to San Antonio. The man who Iwught it died without using it. Fifteen years later it was sold, I.ate in 1899 it was offered to a Southern Pacific conductor. The latter re fused to accept it and the man re fusing to pay bis fair was ejected. There was nothing irregular in the ticket or in its purpose and trans fer. In deciding against the man in his damage suit for ejectment, the court holds that "it was never contemplated that the ticket should be held for nearly half of an average liletirac before it was presented for the purpose for which it was pur chased. The ticket held by the ap pellant could not occupy any better position as to the statute of limi tation than a promisory note pay able on demand." The Railway and Engineering Review.
