It is now on exhibition in ths National Museum at Washington per haps the finest Mexican sombrero that was ever made. A magnificent grove of black walnut trees, most of them with trunks tout feet in diameter, have been discovered in the heart of the Miami Indian re serve, southern part of Wabash county, Indiana.

The managers of a German railroad which is now being built in Eastern Africa, where the olimate is most dan gerous to white men, recently offered positions to olvil engineers at (1.135 per annum, station mastms a 11,000 and locomotive engineers at f 900. Sir Arthur Sullivan, the musician, has invented the "Sullivan safety haft," a device to be attached to car riages to save life in case of runaways or similar accidents, by releasing the horse fiom 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 Lathom, which filled Sir Arthur with a desire to pre vent similar catastrophes. "Recently, after the Bock Island wreck at Yolland." 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, lias bevn in Haines this week, outfitting for a piospwoting tour in the Porcupine mining district, says the Porcupine Quill. Captain Kant and party represent an uxtensivo com pany, known as the Jack Crawford (poet and scout) party that went to the Hootalinqua last season over the Dyea route, equipped with dredgers, and who have been unsuccessful in the Yukon and ate trying the present sea son to retrieve their ill luck by operat ing in the Atlin and Forty-Mile dig gings in the Ynkou. Atttaoted by fa-' voiable reports from the Porcupine dis trict, the mannger of the company, Henry M. Wallace, prominent lawyer f Ann Arbor, Mich., placed detail of opeiators under charge of Captain Hunt, who is an experienced prospec tor, and sent them here to prosecute intelligent examination of 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-1 fal in their search they will bring in a large outfit this season of modern by dianlio machinery and permanently establish the headquarters of the com pany which have large capital at their control nnder the Stats and Stripes, and abandon the Northwest Territory propositions, where they are sorely handicapped by unjust discrim inations and exactions. The party will be ready to start early next week, and re now getting their boats and outfit! over the trail to the Chilcat liver. Excftoraant Runs High. Mr. Cole, the mail agent (or Porcu pine City, brought down on his last tiip a small pile of gold dust taken from claim No. 1 above Discovery, on Porcupine creek. It was the partial output of the first washout by the nss of a sluicebox on that olaim, and was sold to S. Weitzinan for $35. Mr. Cols aaya the miners on McKinley and Por cupine creeks are just beginning to take ont gold, and the field soon will astonish the nations. The water ii 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 Stampada Kxpactad. Since the arrival of samples of coarse gold from the placer mines on the Por cupine and McKinley diggings, the mists of doubt that have been thrown over that district by the "ginbstakers" who have done no active work except to hang around the camp, "waiting foi something to turn np," have disap peared, and a feeling of confidence es tablished. In fact, nothing bnt ths best of reports are being brought daily, and if developments continue at they are now going on there will be a genuine stampede inside of six weeks Larga Cannery Deatroyad. Mr. D. J. Mnnn's cannery on Sea island, B. C. was completely destroyed by fire. The cannery was one of the largest on the North Arm, and general ly had the largest pack for that branch f the river. The cannery was fully equipped with everything necessary for the season's work and all the nets were hanging in readiness to be taken out for the sockeye run. The loss on the cannery, stock of cans, machinery, etc., is estimated at f 66,000, on which there was only $45,000 insurance. B track a Quarts Led (a. William Eetinghousen, of California, who haa been prospecting along the Chilcat river tor the past four months, struck a. ledge of quartz about foui miles from Haines. His discovery covers a ledge five feet between walls, and evidently carries a large per cent of copper and gold. Mr. Estinghonsen 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. Mow Alaska City. Jim McCloskey, of the Arctic, hai returned from the Ketchikan mining district, which be 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 sanmle coming from that district being literally covered witb the stain." Great Racing Kvant. Saturday, Jnly 1, the trotting and running races commence at the Irving ton track, Portland, and will continue nntil Juiy 8. Judging by the horset 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 tlio track and grandstand free of charge. On all other days 25 cents admission will bs 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 undoubtedly prove great drawing cards Peacock Copper Proipect. Mr. Sheldon brought to Haines' Mis sion several fine specimens of quartz taken from 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 la tha Kaplde. Tha Klondike rush of 1899 lias al ready had its list of dead to be record ed. Frank Kane, hotel man, of Doug las Island, and Charles Mordt, of the Hotel Lindemann, Dyea trail, while trying to cioes Bennett in a Peterboro canoe, were capsized and drowned. Fresh Meat Famine. A fresh meat famine existed at Haines the front end of last week. A like condition of affairs m the market is reported as existing at Hkugway by reason of the nonarrival of expected beef cattle. NiitKlier Iron Works. The Fneut Sound Wire Nail Ss Steel Company, now the property of tie Amnrinaii Steel & Iron Trust, has closed down and the nail and wire uia- chinos will be shipped to the Wash burn & fion Company, at San Fran cisco. F. W. Mitchell, of Mitchell. Lewis & Staver Company, of 8ettle, ia inspecting the buildings, machinery and site of the nail works with a view to purchasing them and moving the iron works tbeieto. II the deal la niHile it is the intention of the Sumner iion woiks to at once go into the loco omtive building on a large scale. Milt Destroyed by Fire. Ifynmrn fliAnmill at nonAHM. Idaho, has been dostoyed by fire, which ia annnosed to have been started In the engine-room. At the time of the fire some four or five tons of chopped feed was on hand. The 14 horse power gas oline engine, valued at $1,100, will not be a total loss, as it is believed with a few extras it can be placed in running ordei again. The insuiance was or.lr $1,000, which will nowhere near cover the loss. Cannery to Ue Erected. George W. Sanborn has purchased 200 feet of water fiont property on the west side of the Seaside cannery, and expeots to have a cannery built and ready for operation next season. Tbe plant will be up-to-date and equipped with the latest machinery. The can nery will have no connection with any other cannery or combination. Bank Incorporated.

She alu't any bit of aa angel This sweet little woman o' niln She's jest a plain woman. An 'purty much human This sweet little woman ' mine. For what I would do with aa angel When I looked for tho firelight's shiner When six little sinners Arc wantlu' their dinners? Nol Give me this little woman o' mlnel I've hearn Iota of women called "angels," An' lots o' 'em thought it wus flue) But give 'em the feathers, An' me, in all weathers. This sweet little woman o' mine! I Jest ain't got nuthln ag'in 'em These angels they're good In their line! But they're sorter above niol Thank God, that she'll love me This dear little woman o' mluo, F. L. Stanton. A Boy's Love, ItS. CAItltTJTHERS flushed slightly ns she read the name oil tho iwstoboard. "I will see blra hero, Jane," aho said, with studied enhnuesa, "nud remember, pleas, that I am not at home to any one for the next hour." She nestled down on her settee, pil lowing tho shimmering gold of ber head against Its cushions, and waited. She was glad ho bud come. Her thoughta traveled btick to tholr first meeting that day on tho front at Brighton, and aho smiled aa she re called the gust of wind that caught her handkerchief, a scented scrap of lace and cambric, and carried It fluttering to bla feet He wus young, a more boy In fact, and singularly haudsome, and ho actually blushed aa be restored the trifle. There was something frank and fresh about him few of her men friends ever blushed and her tenden cies were sufficiently Bohemian to ren der more formal Introduction unneces sary; before the week was out be bad lunched aud dined at ber hotel. Time had flown for ber since then; bright surumer days spent drifting among the upper reaches of the Thames, with the heat of the afternoon lazed away In some shady backwater; morning drives to some old-world retreat among the Surrey bills; afternoons on the lawns at Hurlinguaui, strolling, talking, tea drinking among the smartest In the land, with the band of the Guards crashing out the masterpiece of great German composers. Interspersed with melodies from the Casino. They bad been friends, notblug more, but each day had brought a fresh delight, and she bad 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 him 7" . Tbe hangings swayed aside, and the boy advanced with outstretched band. She smiled and gave him hers without rising. "Sit down," she said, "and have some coffee, unless you prefer something atronger." "Coffee, thanks," ho answered, drop ping Into a chair beside ber. 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! so you Indulge, It appears. How often?" "Oh, sometimes!" "And I haven't known It until this moment! Will yon Join me nowj" offerlng the case. "No, thank you; I prefer to see yon smoke. There Is a match beside you." Ue lit one of the cigarettes and puffed away In silence, until a blue haze had gathered about bis bead. Then be look ed acrosa at her. "I am going abroad," he said, abruptly. "Are you sur prised?" "Assuming that you mean some hor rible tropic" he nodded "yes, I am. I suppose It means the loss of every thing that has made your life pleasant In tbe past yes? and tbe gain of what?" "Nothing." "Then why go?" She leaned back, clasping her hands behind ber bead, and ber sleeves, fall ing, disclosed arms as smooth and white as ivory. Tbelr glances met and she asked again, "Why go?" "Because I have no choice," he an swered. "Look here, Madge, we've been friends. Jolly good frlenda, and God only knows how 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 be managed to do all be did, but I really knew nothing of his affairs until his death last year. I found out then that be never did have much beyond bis pride, and It appeared that towards tbe end be had dabbled In stocks and shares. Well, you know what happens when parsons walk Into bucket-shops; there was barely enough left to keep the young one at Sandhurst. That Is why I am exchanging for the West Indies." He looked up thoughtfully at tbe smoke cloud wreathing from his cigarette. "Of course I shall see some thing of life. I have seen little so far; school, Sandhurst, an outlandish depot In the west of Ireland, and town." "Do you want to go?" "One cannot always do what one wants." , She shrugged ber shoulders beneath the billowy lore and muslin of ber deml tollette, and there was another pause. "How strange it will seem when you bave gone I shall feel quite lost by myself." She spoke softly, In a tone almost of soliloquy,- watching hhn closely to see the effect of her words. He made no reply, and she went on, "When one has so few friends, It Is bard to lose them tbe places are so bard to fill." He winced at that, and a meuientary gleam flashed In ber eyes. "It will seem strange," she repeated; "I wonder If you will ever think of mo often, I mean?" "I hope not," be replied; "I want to forget you." That was all she wanted; tbe simple directness of the answer conveyed more to her than any outburst of pas sion could have done. The rest was MS. ' After awhile he rose to his foet. Slit rose, too, aud stood before htm, looking lu to his eyes as though she would read his soul. A wild desire to crush her In his arms took possession of him, and the fiiigor-nalh bit Into the palms of his clenched hands. "Must you go?" she whispered, draw ing nearer to hhn. "I have no choice," he said, again. "You want money," she coutluued; "well, I am rich." He did Dot reply. "Would you do something for me?" "Yea," be said, simply; "I would give my llfo for you." . Hor eyes dropped, and a delicious color crept Into her cheeks. "Well, before you go, do ma a favor. Marry me." Ue dld.-St. Paul s. TRAOINQ SUICIDE. Believed that TJnanltubla Diet Has an Injurious K fleet. Dr. nalg la of the opinion that sui cide may be traced to error In diet, the error being the eating of meat, the drluklng of beer and of tea aud the smoklug of tobacco. Ills fuels all full comfortably luto their places In sup port of his hypothesis. Are there not more suicides among men than among women, aud do not men consume more meat, more beer and more tobacco than the women? Again, suicide la more common In England than in Scotland, not apparently because the Scotch are a more canny race, but becauso the English eat more meat and drink more beer, while the Scotch eat less meat aud drink whisky Instead of beer. Af ter maintaining that sulcldo was loss common among the Scotch, It was per haps hardly polite, when addressing a Scotch audience, to go on to say that auk-hie Increased with civilisation. But the fact was explained on the ground of more Injurious diet, that of civilised man being more productive of uric acid and thus of sulcldo than that which prevails where civilization la less advanced. Uric acid Is, In fnct, at the bottom of all this, and, according to Dr. Halg, the lncldonce of sulcldo tallies with the dally, annual and life fluctuations of uric add In the blood, being commonest when uric acid Is most abundant, namely, In tbe morn ings, In spring and summer and In childhood and the full prime of llfo. We have uo doubt that errors of diet are responsible for much, and, among other things, for a certain number of suicides; nay, we could go further and admit that unsuitable diet, derange ment of tbe proper relation between nutrition and wasto and tbe conse quent loading of the tissues and tbe blood with abnormal products of meta bolism bave much to do with that lit temper and discontent which lead men to lay their bands violently upon their neighbors and sometimes 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 tbe origin of the evil. Hospital Giants of Patagonia. Tbe tribes to tbe cast of the Cordil leras, In southern Patagonia, belong to Araucanlan stock, and are a superior race. The Tehuelches as they call themselves of southern and eastern Patagonia are the people whose un usual stature gave rise to the fables of the early days to the effect that the natives of this region were giants aver aging nine to ten feet In height It Is a fact that they are the tallest human beings In the world, the men averaging but slightly less than six feet, while Individuals of four to six Inches above that mark are not uncommou. They are in reality by no means savages, but somewhat civilized barbarians. They are almost unacquainted with the use of firearms, notwithstanding some contact with the whites, but they have plenty of horses and dogs. Unsurpassed hunters, tbey capture the guanaco and the rhea, or South American ostrich, and from the skins of these and other animals they make clothes and coverings for their tents. Tbey make beautiful "capes," or man tics, of furs and feathers which are highly prized by Europeans, and find a ready market most of the proceeds being spent for bad whliiky, which Is brought Into the country In quantities.
