RACE FOR A MINING CLAIM.
Mktwtater Dash to Keen re Poaaeeetoa
r Elch Dialn im Vi ah I n toa.
An exciting race for a mine took place
In February, ISM. Tor many years It
had been known that the Colvllle In
dian reservation was rich In minerals
and prospectors bad slipped In. eluding
the vigilance of the Indian police, to
explore the mountains lu northern
Washington. But long before white
men had entered the tudtana knew that
the top of a low mountain near the na
tion's border Hue was covered with
bright blue stone, ao gaudy that tunny
were carried off and placed In the wig
wams. The prosHH'tora knew that these
gay stoues betokened the existence of
copper veins and many a hungry eye
was cast at that rock-strewn patch of
ground before the government lifted
the ban that kept out pale-face Intru
der. But Centres passed a law open
ing part of the reservation to mineral
location.
Waiting for the President to sign the
formal proclamation, two parties quiet
ly entered the forbidden territory and
camped alongside the promising vela.
At Marcus, the nearest telegraph sta
tion. two young men waited with tense
nerves for the first tick that would tell
that the President had elgued the proc
lamation. It was a cold, gray winter
day and the snow was piled high. Late
In the afternoon the wont came and
there was a simultaneous dash for the
horses that were waiting outside. Then
the race began. . Plunging through
drifts, tumbling down declines, to tiug
desperately up steep hills and bound
ing at full speed over the level stretch
es, these two horses bore their riders.
Sometimes one was ahead and some
times the other. The sun disappeared
and the hurrying pair blundered along
through the deepening twilight, and
then In the light of the stars reflected
by the glistening snow. Spurs were
plunged so deep that flecks of blood
stained the anow. Almost side by side
they scrambled up the mountain. The
yells of the riders were heard In the
distance by the rival watchers, who did
not wait a further hint, but drove tne
stakes that were to locate the La Fleur
mine.
Then followed wordy disputes, fist
fights and the flourishing of Winches
ters, but before the mine was chris
tened with blood one party concluded
to withdraw and fight Its battle In the
courts. AInsIee's Magaxine.
ARMOUR AND HIS EMPLOYES.
Aa Incident Showing the Kiadaeae of
the Great Chicaao Packer.
Perhaps "Phil" Armour had less trou
ble with bis employes than almost any
other great employer of labor In the
country, lie was exacting anu re
quired punctuality and energy, but he
always paid good wages and showed a
personal interest in the welfare of each
one of his employes. He never permit
ted himself to get Into debt, and he
tried to Impress upon his employes the
rule which he had followed. It Is re
lated that one day. on going Into his
office, he found a policeman in the cor
ridor.
"What are you doing here, sir?" he
asked.
'I am here to serve a paper," was
the reply.
"What kind of a paper?" asked Mr.
Armour.
"I want to garnishee one of your
men's wages for debt. said the police
man. "Indeed." replied Mr. Armour, "and
who is the man?" He thereupon asked
the policeman Into bis private office and
ordered that the debtor come In. He
then asked the clerk bow long be bad
been In debt. The man replied that for
twenty years he bad been behind, and
that be could not catch up.
'But yon get a good Balary," said Mr.
Armour, "don't you?"
Yes," said the clerk, "but I can't get
out of debt. My life Is such that some
how or other I can't get out"
"But you must get out," said Mr.
Armour, "or you must leave here. How
much do you owe?"
The clerk then gave the amount It
was less than $1,000. Mr. Armour took
his check-book and wrote out a check
for the amount
"There," said he as he handed the
clerk the check. "There Is enough to
pay all your debts. Now I want you
to keep out of debt and if I hear of you
again getting into debt you will have
to leave."
The man took the check, paid hla
debts and remodeled hie life on a cash
basis.
How Tree Are Dwarfed.
Interest In the dwarfed forest trees
produced by Chinese and Japanese gar
deners Is growing In this country. In
making the dwarf the gardener breaks
a branch from a tree. Just below aa
"eye" on the branch he cuts and re
moves a ring of bark. Then be sticks
the 'branch In a ball of specially pre
pared earth. This be crams Into a
flower pot and keeps It moist enough
to start the roots. After the roots are
well grown tne water supply Is lessen
ed. As the branch puts out limbs these
are clamped with wire bands to pro
duce a rugged and ancient look. The
roots are kept down by cutting. Honey
is smeared on the trunks to attract In
sects which give It a worm-eaten ap
pearance. It often requires twenty
years to perfect the dwarfing,
French Elections.
Connected with French parliament
ary elections are some curious features.
For Instance, no wall literature Issued
by a candidate or bis friends may be
printed on white paper, white being
the color reserved for official announce
ments. In the days of the empire,
when official candidates were known
in the land, the addresses of the gov
ernment's nominees were printed on
white paper, and this no doubt bad due
weight with the more Ignorant voters.
Again, any elector whose name Is men
tioned In a newspaper can. If be feel
himself aggrieved, call upon the editor
to publish a reply. This, however, Is
not confined to elections, but Is a right
enjoyed by French citizens under the
law of the country.

It is doubtful if anything could be

T. Dudley, a practicing attorney tor 23
years in San Francisco, with offices at
63 City Hill, avenue. Mr. Dudley
lost his balance while standing upon
the rear platform of a street oar, canning
him to fall, striking the ground with
the back ot bis head, which brought 011
a feeling of numbness and eventually
paralysis. Mr. Dudley tells his ex
perience in his owu way as follows:
"After the fall froui the car I passed
it by as an accident that had left no
apparent ill effects; yet a few weeks
later, in endeavoring to get on a car, I
found I could not taise iny foot. Front
this time paralysis began iu my feet
and in time my lower limbs became

it brought on a bloodless condition ot

told my wife that it was only a ques

by the doctors did no good, and, at the
time I started to take Di. Williams'

UPS AND DOWNS OF MtRCUR.
it Career Only Typical of a Thoaeaad
Mining Chape.
The story of Mercur, Utah, Is a strlk

f a typical mining camp. Many years
igo the Indiana there were supreme.
Vrrowheads and other relics picked up
leer the site of Mercur Indicate that
he tribes have at times contested
ituong themselves tor that supremacy
with these hllle as a battleground.
In 1S70 silver was discovered on this
ilte and two years later the Carrie

months, and the Camp Floyd boom
eaped to Ita height, lwlslon sprang

There were rich strike, ahootlnga, w.ld
carousals and claim Jumping. The
Mormon Chief mine was transformed
into a fort and battles for Its poseea
lion were frequent.
Then the bottom dropped out, The
tup was deserted. The souuda of
pick and blast were gone from the deep
rwemea, Bats fluttered unmolested
about the rotting timbers. Coyotes
slunk Into the tuuuela and from this
vantage ground howled defiance at the
tierce wind of wluter. For a time the
pectral buildings stood gloomily ou
their stilts, their panelesa wludows
staring vacantly. Thou decay made

Moses Manning, keeping up nsssmeut
work ou a few claims. In ISM Arle
IMinklo I bought be bad found Quick
silver In the old camp. He staked out
a claim aud uamed It Mercur. But the
mercury uever paid to develop the
claim. In 1SS3 gold waa fouud In as
says, but It could not lie extracted. A
few men became Interested aud car
ried on mining In a desultory way with
out success. The Mercur claim was
sold as a "gold brick" to a party of Ne
braska "teuderfeet" For years they
worked away. Ore was to be found lu
plenty, and the assays showed large
amount of gold. But every process
they tried brought no results In ex
tracting the precious metal. They ex
hausted their capital, and In ISSO they
were 50.000 In debt snd at the end of
their rope.
Gilbert Peyton, one of the owners,
who was a Nebraska druggist, visited
the mine. Going through the drawera
of the office desk he caiue upon a
pamphlet which had been sent to the
foreman. It was a brief descrlptlJu of
the cyanide process, then new In Amer
ica. With his druggist's experience
Peyton had no difficulty In mixing a
cyanide solution and test lug It in a
cupel with some pulverized ore. But
the solution did not seem to percolate
the powdered ore and the experiments
were failures. Sick at heart. Peyton left
In the cupel a solution with which be
had been making tests until It was
much diluted, and went to lied. The
next morning he noticed that the weak
ened solution had penetrated the clay
cupeL
"If the weak solution will go through
clay like that. It ought to go through
large pieces of ore," be reasoned.
The problem was solved. A weak so
lution and larger pieces of ore were
tried, and the prwe worked like a
charm.
The owners of the Mercur mine were
transformed Into rich men. Moses
Manning, the patient hermit, made
$15,000. The town of Mercur sprang
up, phoenix-like, and Is to-day one of
the richest gold camps In the United

GIRL'S FIGHT WITH A HAWK.
California Child Displayed a Wonder
ful Amount of PI nek.
Ida Duffy, the 9-year-old daughter of
Thomas J. Duffy, of the Palatine In
surance Company, of San Francisco,
bad a desperate battle with a wounded
chicken hawk at San Rafael and nar
rowly escape with her life. Several
days ago the bird was given to the
child and It has since been kept a pris
oner In the yard of the family residence
at that place. The other morning the
hawk succeeded In making Its ernpe
iud flew to a near-by tree, where a
piece of string attached to Its leg be
came entangled in the branches, again
making the bird a prisoner.
The little girl seeing that the hawk
was unable to fly away, ran to the tree,
and taking advantage of Its spreading
limbs, rapidly climbed to a spot many
feet alove the ground, where the bird
was entangled. She attempted to undo
the string from the tree, when sudden
ly the bird swooped at her and burled
the talons of both feet In the little girl's
face. The child screamed with pain,
but plucklly fought the hawk off as
again and again It attacked her with
beak, talons and wings.
The child's face was terribly scratch
ed and her hands cut In the struggle,
but the little heroine clung to the tree
and eventually securing a bold on the
bird's legs prevented It from doing fur
ther harm. Slowly and painfully she
dlmbed down the tree and still cling
ing to the struggling bird she brought
it with her to the ground and placed It
in captivity. Then she ran to the
house, where her cut and bleeding face
was promptly attended to. Los Ange
