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 change the name of the town of Alba ny to Takenuh, but it was finally abandoned. The first school was opened in that city in lSSl, and was taught by Dr. R. C. Hill.

Gov't Report 4 Cr jijggsssa ABSOLUTELY PURE 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 iron, pray for every young.

Yours truly, Lloyd Montqomkrv. "P. S. I am obliged for the book you sent me," 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.

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 Ledger. If you want to sell property list it with Peterson 4 Andrews.
