The following is taken trom a recent
Issue of the Scientific American: "A
carload of redwood for use in making
lead pencils was recently shipped from
Sanger, Cal., for Nuremberg, Germa
ny. Some time ago, experts from Ger
many investigated the timber resources
of the Pacific coast in an effort to find
a substitute for cedar, the forests in
Europe from which the supply of that
wood has hitherto been obtained hav
ing become almost exhausted. It is
said that the redwood from the east
slope of the Sierras is the only wood
besides cedar with a sufficiently
straight grain to make it suitable for
pencils."
In 1850 an attempt was made to

Lloyd Montgomery Writes a Letter,
Lloyd Montgomery has received a
number of letters and visits from min
isters and others who are interested in
his spiritual welfare. Among the let
ters received is one signed by Mrs.
Judd, of Turner, Oregon. The con
demned prisoner seemed particularly
pleased with the lady's letter, and
spent considerable time in writing an
answer. His letter is as follows, hie
own spelling being followed:
"Mrs. Judd, lady: Your message at
hand, and contents fully and carefully
noted. I fully realize my unfortuuite
situation, and I fully realize that my
time is about at band to depart from
this life, although I am a young man
and in tender years. I fully realize
that it is hard to think that I have to
pass from this earth on the gallows., I
know that I am a miserable being, but
I am going to put my trust in God,
and as the time is fast ebing way, and
with the aid of all the Christian peo-
fle that calls on me and prays for me,
shall endeuvor to appropriate the
time as best I can as to my future sal
vation, and I trust that when I pass
from this life, the Lord above will
make me bear joy and gladness, al
though my sins has bin great, and I
will endeaver to improve the opportu
nity between now and the fatal day
which I am to pass from this earth to
the one above. I shall admit that
everry oue in my mind has some time
through life commited tin, and I am
sure every one has their troubles and
trials as well as my self. Although I
am incirculed with bars of iron, I be
lieve that the Lord is willing to give,
If I onely ask.
"You spoke of your three sons, and I
wish to tell them that if they are iu
any way inclined to walk through tills
life in a crooked and thorny path, to
stop and think before it is to late, that
they may be delivered from darkness
into light. The public and press has
Branded me us one of the worst mur
derers that has ever entered a felons
cell, hut they know not all. God
knows my sins Is not as great as man
has pictured them to be, but neverthe
less, when the time comes for me to
die, I will try and brave it through
manfully, and that the Lord will de
liver me from blood-guiltiness, aud my
tongue will sing aloud of my righteous
ness' You ask me if I have a Bible;
I arswer yes, I have oue and am verry
mucli obliged to you for your kindness
in offering me one. I would be glad,
if it Is convenient for you, to call and
see me. I am sure your company will
be verry acceptable, your eons also.
You say you pray for me. I wish you
to continue to pray for me and piny
lor my companions tnac uas tne mis-
fortune to be enclosed with brick and

Goods for the Mines,
From the Albauy Democrat.
The grocery department of 8. E.
Your.g's store presented a wholesale
appearance to-day (Jan. 1). The clerks
were busy preparing about 15,000
pounds of goods for shipment into the
Lawler mines, The goods consist of
beans, bacon, hams, sugar, canned
goods, etc., In fact tiie winter's supply
for the miners in the Lawler mines.
A shipping order was also given Stew,
art & Box for a large quantity of pow
der. These goods will go to-morrow
morning, and be taken at once into
the mines. Through the energy of
Mr. Lawler the mill machinery has
been taken far enough to Insure its
arrival at the mines iu a few days, the
weather of the Inst few days being fa
vorable for the ffork. So it was finally
decided to push the winter aud spring
vark Regardless of enow. The com
pany has an Immense supply of ore on
hand, iu fact all the bins are filled, so
that as soon as the mill is put in posi
tion in the building awaiting it, work
can, be pushed from the very start. The
first clean-up will be watched with
great interest, as it will then be estab
lished from actual experience what the
ore wll pay, It is thought to be rich
aud there is no doubt that the result
will be very satlsfoctory. It will prob
ably only take a few mouths run to
pay ail the expenses the company has
been too,

How to Make a Million Dollars.
A lively little publication In Chica
go, coiled Results, gives an account of
a meeting at St. Louis of commercial
clubs of several cities, a number of
those present being millionaires, who
were asked "How can a man make a
million dollars?" and these are some of
the brief replies:
George M. Pullman: "Could not tell
you really, I oould not. I did not
come down here to be interviewed, and
anyway, this is too short notice to give
a comprehensive opinion."
Marshall Field: "Oh, pshawl'What
do you ask such a question for? There
is no general recipe that I know of,
unless it be Industry, economy and a
cheerful disposition."
P. D. Armour: "Oh, my gracious,
what a question! I have lost my pat
ent for making money, and now don't
know any more about it than anybody
else. Go ask Marshall Field. Ho is
making lots of money now."
Lyman J. Gage: "I did not come
here to tais about money making. It
occurs-to me that men who want to
make money will know how and
where to proceed."
Charles Fargo: "What do you ask
me for? I've got no money. Pullman
could tell you, if he would."
N. K. Fairbaiik: "I could not give
you a rule, for there is no such thing
in money making."
Marvin Hugbitt: "Work like the
devil, and hold on to what you make.
A man must solve his own problem
nobody can do that for him."
Frauklin MacVeagh: "Well, that
Is a poser. I will indorse all that Mr.
Hugbitt has said, however."
E. M. Phelps: "Go talk with those
men who know I don't."
Which all goes to show, adds Re
sults, that the reporter went to the
wrong people. He should have inter
viewed the "financial experts." It is
clear that this reporter never did any
interviewing for an advertising jour
nal, What does a millionaire know about
making money, or a successful adver
tiser know about advertising?
The men who have really done any
thing never want to tell how they did
it.
Fires in "Sky Scrapers."
From the Scientific American.
At a recent fire the Chicago firemen
demonstrated at the Masonio Temple
their ability to oope with fires In tho
tipper stories of the tallest buildings.
Engine No. 1 of the city fire depart
ment pumped a stream ot water
through 500 feet of hose and standpipes
to the roof of the building, where thero
was sufficient force to drenoh the roofs
of neighboring buildings. The water
pressure at the engine was 240 pounds.
On the roof at the same time the pres
sure was 54 pounds to the inch.
The length of the standplpe from the
ground to the roof of the Masonio Tem
ple Is 323 feet. The sight of an engine
and firemen at this sky sornper at
tracted a crowd of people who wero
well soaked for their curiosity.
The result of the test was gratifyiug
to Chief Swenie of the lire department
and to the insurance men present.
A counterfeiting plant In tho Ar
kansas state penitentiary was recently
discovered by officials Inspecting the
Institution. In the cell of one of the
prisoners were found two plaster or
parls moulds for making 2o-cent pieces,
a till cup, iron spoon and other articles
necessary to the business the prisoner
seemed to be carrying on successfully.
About the man's body was a belt con
taining 10 spurious quarter-dollars,
made of Babbitt metal. Several similar
coins were found on other convicts.
Those who hold that no man can
avoid his fate may find support for
their doctrine in tho experience of
Charles J. Weller, of Elkhart, Ind. He
wus employed In grinding at an emery
wheel, but, regarding the position as
dangerous, handed In Ills resignation.
Five minutes before the time for end
ing his last day at the work the wheel
burst and killed him. Philadelphia
