Mountains of Pure Salt.
One of the Wonders of Nature that
Fringe the Great Colorado River.
San Francisco Chronicle.
Captain J. A. Mellon, one of the old-
est white settlers of Fort Yuma, Ari.,
who lived Yuma two years without see-
ing a white woman,and who commanded
the first steamer, the Gila, that ever
went up the Colorado River to the Vir-
in, is at the Lick House, having arrived
ast night.
Few pioneers in any land have had
the strange experience of Captain Mel-
lon. “I have not,” said he,*since 1 was
ten years old, been in an American city
of 3,000 people on the Fourth of July.
It is over twenty-five years now-since I
went to Fort Yuma, and the changes I
see in San Francisco surprise me.
“Have I been running on the Colorado
River all this time? Yes; and let me
say that there are stretches of hundreds
of miles on thatriver that are less known
than the heart of Central Africa. We
go up there to get salt. There are great
mountains of salt on the Virgin, which
is a tributary of the Colorado, each of
which is larger and higher than Goat
Island. The salt is pure and white. It
is clearer than glass. You may takea
piece of it seven or eight inches thick
and read a common newspaper through
it.
“The salt mountains cover a stretch of
about twenty-five miles on both sides ot
the Virgin seven miles up from the
Colorado. A single blast of giant pow-
der will blow up tons upon tons of it.
This salt does not dazzle your eyes, as
you might expect, while riding along on
the river steamer or clambering over it.
It has a layer of sandstone from two to
eight teet thick over it. When this is
torn away the salt lies in full sight, like
a great snowdrift. How deep 1t is no-
body knows. This salt is destined to be
the source of great wealth. Hamilton
Disston, the big saw manufacturer, and
Baldwin, of the Baldwin Locomotive
‘Works, are the only men who have se-
cured any of these salt mountains.
‘When the Utah Southern Railroad is
pushed on from Frisco, Utah, it will tap
the gigantic salt mountains, and then an
enormous revenue will be realized from
them.
“I brought down from the mines for
the Academy of Sciences here some
queer things from the salt mines. Un-
der the cap rock was found charred
wood and charcoal,besides some matting
made of cedar bark. The salt had pre-
served it. It might have lain there
thousands of years. Kvidently there
had been a slide that covered up the
camp equipage of some prehistoric men.
Strange to say, a similar discovery has
been made in the salt mines of Louisiana,
The rocks up towards the salt mountains
are painted and cut into hieroglyphics
which none of the Mojave, Yuma,Piute
or other Indians know the meaning of.
“There are valleys along the great,
but as yet unknown, Colorado, singly as
much as one hundred and twenty miles
long and twenty wide. That will be
the real orange country of the globe.
They are as rich as the valleys of the
Nile. Water will be brought on them
as sure as destiny.
“El Dorado Canyon is grander than
the Grand Canyon of the Colorado. The
tops of the windows in the steamer Gila
do not project out more than six inches,
yet I may put my head out and look as
hich as T'ean and I can’t see half way
up the mighty walls of the Canyon.
The river is 350 teet wide there, too.
The only way vou can see to the top is
to get right on deck and look straight up.
The walls are so high that there is per-
petual shade there. Neither thesun nor
the moon can shine in. It takes ten
hours going upto go through the canyon
and two hours coming down.
“By the Colorado river and the Virgin
you can run clear up into Nevada and
Utah. Many people have laughed at
me for saying that I was going up into
the mountainous Nevada by boat, but
that's just what I have been doing right
along. Strange as it may seem, and
little known as it is, the Colorado has
more navigable water without po tage
than any other river on the Pacific coast.
It has 700 miles, while the Columbia
“has but 3350. The Colorado is the only
real field for explorers on the North
American Continent outside of the frigid
North. The wonders that could be un-
earthed there will yet attract the atten-
tion of the great scientists of the world.”

The Great Bethlehem Iron Works,
Having reference to the inspection of
the ordnance works at Bethlehem, the
New York Times says: “What Krupp
is to Germany is the Bethlehem Iron
Company to the United States. The
West Point Foundry and the South
Boston Iron Works long held dominant
sway in this country, but they are both
far eclipsed now by the new Bethlehem
works. The following brief synopsis
will give some idea of the magnitude of
the work now in process of completion
in the shops of the latter concern. In
the way of naval ordnance there are
six four-inch breech-loading rifles build-
ing; also two 'four-inch rapid-firing
guns, and some eighty breech-loading
rifles of calibres from 5 to 12 inches in-
clusive.
For the army the Bethlehem works
are making some sixty guns of calibre:
from 8 to 12 inches inclusive. For the
navy all the armor of the big barbette
bartle-ship Puritan and the double-ter-
reted monitors Amphitrite, Monadnock
apd Terror is being made at these works,
as is also the armor-plating for the bat-
tle-ship Texas and the armored cruiser
Muine. The Bethlehem company 1s be-*
sides furnishing to such firms as the
Oramps, the Union Iron Works, of San
Francisco, and the W. F. Palmer, Jr.,
Company, of New York city, shafting
and other heavy forgings for the cruisers
Newark, Philadelphia and San Fran-
cisco, and the armored cruiser Maine.
The Philadelphia shafting has been de-
livered. and the deliveries for the New-
ark and San Francisco are nearly com-
pleted. Forging for 4-inch, 6-inch and
R.inch guns have already been delivered
some ten months in advance of the con-
tact time,’

“Yes, purty enough; good night,
Hank.”
“What yer rush ?”’
“I'd say mush, if I were you.”
“Why, we ain’t been standing here
but a few minutes.”
#Q—o—o—h! Hank Sparks, what a
big story-teller you are. We've been
here over an hour.”
“Well, what if we have ?”’
«Well, that’slong enough, that’s what.
We'd ought to be shamed of ourselves,
anyhow.”
“What for 2”
“For being so silly.”
“I reckon we ain’t the only silly folks
in the world, then.”
“That don’t make no difference.
Good night.”
“No, wait a minute, Tillie.”
«What for ? Yous’'pose I'm going to |
stand here all night ?”’ :
“Nobody wants you to stay here all
night ; but I don’tsee why you should
snatch yourself away like this,”

tion to come out orto set old Boze loose.”

“Wait a minute.”
“I shan’t. Let go my hands!”
“I don’t have to.”
“You meanthing, you. I—I—if you
dare kiss me again, Hank Sparks!”
“Oh, I daren’t, eh ? There!”
“Hank Sparks!”
“There's another.”
“I’ve a notion to call for pa. I will if
you kiss me again, sir!”
“Oh, you will? There! Now call
him!” :
“You're the worst case I ever saw.
Shame on you !”’
“Pooh ! I pity a feller who ain’t grit
enough to kiss his girl when he can.”
“I'd be ashamed if I was you, sir.
Good-night.”
“Good-night, Tillie.”
“Good-night.” :
“Good-night. Don’t forgit that we're
going to the singing school ¥'riday night.”
“Maybe we will and maybe we won’t.”’
“You better look out or I'll kiss you
again.”
“Yes, youdaren’t !
“By-by.”
“Good-by."—Time.
Good-night.”
Starting a Balky Horse.
It Took an Old Farmer to Coax Him-
He Tickled His Ears.
On Friday afternoon a young man
drove up East Main street on the street
car tracks. He had a one-horse wagon
and a load of hemlock slabs. "When he
was about half-way up East Main street
his horse balked. There was a row of
street cars behind him which reached to
the Four Corners in a few minutes, and
every driver was leaning out from his
platform and yelling more or less em-
phatically at the young man to start
his horse.
The young man climbed down from
the wagon and tried to start the horse.
He coaxed, swore, tried to lead and then
to push the horse along, but all to no
purpose. The animal wanted a vaca-
tion, and wanted it right away.
Meantime a crowd had collected on
the side-walk and yelled :
“Twist his tail 2”
“Build a fire under him !”
“Put pepper in his nose!”
“Stick a pin in him !”
“Club him!”
“Get a wisp of hay and lead him!”
“Hitch a team to him!”
“Unharness him!”
“Blow smoke in his ears !”
By this time the street-car drivers
were frantic, but the horse did not seem
to care. He never moved. Finally an
old farmer came down the walk stopped,
saw what was the matter and went out
to where the horse stood. He reached
up to the horse’s head and stuck his
fingers down in one of the horse's ears.
The effect was instantaneous. The
beast started up instantly, the street cars
moved on again, and the old farmer said
as he came back to the walk: “That
allers fetch ‘vm, b’'gosh,”’—Rochester
Democrat.
Personally-Conducted Tours to Luray
via Pennsylvania Railroad.
The wide popularity which the Penn-
svlvania Railroad Company's personally-
conducted tours to Luray and National
Bridge gained last season, has induced
the company torepeat them thissummer.
There is no more attractive region in the
East than the great valley of Virginia,
with its two great wonders—the Caves
ard the Bridge—and none could be
chosen from which tourists could derive
more pleasure, profit, and instruction.
The tours are fixed for Thursdays in
August and September. Excursion
tickets, which include a day’s board at
Luray Inn and admission to the caverns,
will be sold from Philadelphia at $10.00,
and proportionately low rates from other
stations. These tickets will be accepted
for passage from Philadelphia . only on
the Niagra Express leaving Broad Street
Station 8.50 A. M. This also applies to
points on the Philadelphia Division at
which the Niagara Express stops. From
ail stations east and north of Trentor,
the tickets are good for passage to Phila-
delphia on the day preceding the excur-
sion,as well as on the train leaving New
York at 6.20 A. M. on Thursday, which
will arrive in Philadelphia in time to
connect with the Niagara Express. From
other stations regular trains connecting
with the Niagara Express at the nearest
station must be used. The party will be
in charge of the Tourist Agent and
Chaperon. I'he return portion of the
tickets will be good for use until and in-
cluding the following Thursday. Tickets
may also be purchased at $1.00 more
than the rate above quoted valid for the
round trip via Gettysburg. In general
and especial attractiveness this trip is un-
“equaled.

Household Notes.
Many a cake and batch of bread are
ruined by slamming the open door.
Rats and mice have as great an aver-
sion to the odor of chloride of lime as
humans.
It is said that a salve of equal parts
of tar, tallow and salt will cure the
worst case of felon.
A little flour shaken on your greas-
ed cake pan is a better preventive of
sticking than paper.
To extract ink from wood, scour with
sand wet with water and ammonia,
than rinse with strong saleratus water.
To make tins shine wash in hot soap
suds, dip a dampened cloth in fine sift-
ed coal ashes, then polish with dry
ashes.
To exterminate moths from trunks
and chests,wash well with borax water,
and after drying use benzine. Air and
sun well before using.
If the face seems constantly dry, rub
it with a trifle of olive oil every night
for a time ; if too oily, put a little borax
in the water used for bathing.
Turpentine mixed with carbolic acid
and kept in open vessels about the
room will greatly lessen the risk of con-
tageon in scarlet fever, diphtheria and
kindred diseases.
A London medical man says: °“Be
careful in your dealings with horserad-
ish. It irritates the stomach far more
than spice, and an overdose will bring
on an unpleasant sensation for days.
Alum, water will restore almost all
faded colors. Brush the faded article
thoroughly to free it from dust, coverit
with a lather of castile soap, rinse with
clear water and then alum water, and
the color will usuaily be much brighter
than before.
There is no economy in purchasing
brown sugar,as the moisture it contains
more than makes up for the difference
in price; but for some things, such as
dark cake and mince pies, many cooks
prefer it. Granulated sugar is the pur-
est and best for ordinary uses.
Shirt bosoms never blister if starched
on the righ side, but if they are wrong
side out when starched they are apt to
do so. Poor mixed starch into boiling
water, instead of pouring boiling water
on the starch, in that way never using
more starch than is necessary, as the
simple starch and water can be saved.
To keep of mosquitoes take a small
quantity of a two per cent. carbolic
acid solution and sprinkle sheets, cov-
erlets, pillow and bolster on both sides,
the edges of bed curtains and the wall
next the bed. The face and neck may
also be slightly wetted with the solu-
tion. Not a single gnat or mosquito
will come near.
There is nothing better for a cut than
powdered rosin. Pound it until fine,
and then put it into an empty, clean
pepper box with perforated top; then
you can easily sift it out onthe cut, and
put a soft cloth around the injured
member, and wet it with cold water
once in a while. It will prevent inflam-
mation and soreness.
The time-honored precautions of
gum camphor and tobacco are declar-
ed nowadays to be utterly useless. It
is alleged by those who should be ex-
perts that neither preventive has any
effect, either good or bad, upon the
moths. However this may be, there
are still enough housekeepers who
cling to the old traditions to prevent
the use of such protections falling en-
tirely out of favor.
Borax water will instantly remove
all soils and stains from the hands, and
heal all scratches and chafes. To
| make it; put crude borax into a bottle
and fill it with hot water. When the
borax is dissolved add more to the wa-
ter, until at last the water can absorb
no more and a residuum remains in the
bottle. To the water in which the hands
are to be washed, pour from this bottle
to make it very soft. It is very cleans-
ing, and by its use the hands will be
kept in excellent condition.
The Luck of an Arkansas Druggist.
Opposite Memphis and about twenty-
miles inland I stopped at a general store
to rest and get a bite to eat. Besides
keeping hardware, wooden-ware, dry
goods, groceries, saddlery, notions, boots
and shoes, smoked and salt meats, there
was a stock of drugs in the rear. I got
some crackers and cheese, and while
eating there came in a colored man. He
complained of pains in the chest and
wanted a remedy. The merchant
scratched his nose reflectively, looked
along the shelves, and finally took down
a bottle, poured a two-ounce phial full,
and corked it up and handed it over with
the remark:
“Take five drops of that in water
every four hours. Fifty cents.”
The negro paid and went away, and
in a few minutes a woman came in for
something for dyspepsia. He took down
a chance bottle, poured some of the con-
tents into a phial, and charged her sixty
cents. © Then I inquired if he was a doc-
tor.
“Well, sorter,” he replied.
“And you know drugs ?"
“Yes, tolerably fair.”
“You put up queer remedies for those
complaints.”
“Did L? Do you know drugs?”
“I haveserved five years as prescrip-
tion clerk.”
“Just the man I've been aching to see-
for a month! TI took the stock on a
debt. The fellow agreed to write on
each bottle what the contents were good
for, but he missed over halfof 'em. I've
been dealing out sorter on my own
judgment, and I've had mighty good
luck so far.”
Haven't you killed any one?”
“Bout a dozen, I reckon ; but all but
one have ‘been niggers, and the one
white man was no ‘count anyhow. Now
you just put in the afternoon marking
up them bottles, and 111 keep ye over
night and hand ye two big dollars in the
morning.”
The many remarkable cures
Hood's Sarsaparilla accomplishes are
sufficient proof that it does possess cury-
live powers.
Building Wooden Silos.
Useful Information to Readers Who
Contemplate the Building of Silos.
Readers who are contemplating build-
ing silos of wood may gain useful infor-
mation in the following from the pen of
John Gould, a popular Wisconsin dairy-
man.
The cost of a 100 ton silo would be
about 2,200 feet of inch pine lumber,600
feet of 2 by 10 inch studding—possibly
$40 with you; one keg wire 10d nails,
three rolls of tarred paper,$6 more. The
silo you will need will be 14 by 18 feet,
and 16 feet deep. If you build in the
| barn, scantling 2 by 6 will probably be
heavy enough.
inches apart.
If you can build in the barn, fix your
stalls go you can use ‘one corner of the
barn for the silo, and let it start from
the ground. Do rot try to use the walls
of the barn for silo. Let the silo stud-
ding have the walls for backing, and
make an air space. Set the studding and
then sheet up the inside of the silo with
common inch boards. Then put on the
tarred paper up and down, well lapped,
and then put on another layer of boards
over the paper, nailing them on through
the paper and the other boarding to the
studding.
Do not use matched lumber. Good
rough lumber, with true edges, is all
vou need. Put on both courses round
and round, breaking joints by a half
lap. Then take common coal tar,boil it
until it is thin, add some resin, put in on
inside the silo, boiling hot. This will
make the lumber water proof, and last a
long time, and is far ahead of a stone
silo in which to preserve ensilage. Also
tar the bottom of the studding next to
the ground.

The quantity of champagne made at
Rheims and Epernay, France, is almost
incredible. A great deal of nonsense is
written and spoken on this point. One
is gravely told that®*more champagne is
drunk in Russia alone than in all the
vineyards of France could supply, and
that America—well, America gets cider
for champagne. The fact is that it is
very difficult to smuggle chumpagne in-
to Russia, and every bottle which goes
there is recorded at the custom house on
the frontier, for the Russian tax is 80
cents a bottle. England and America
consume more champagne than all the
other nations put together, excepting
France. The supply is equal to the de-
mand, despite the fact that America im-
pois more champagne every year. One
house in Rheims alone exports 2,000,000
of bottles of champagne yearly,all high
class wines too. From the entire cham-
pagne district of France there were ex-
ported last year 20,000,000 of bottles of
champagne,8,000,000 of bottles of which
came to America.
——TFor several years past learned, or
apparently learned, arguments have ap-
peared in Western newspapers to the ef-
fect that the level of the great lakes is
lowering and that a period of low water
is beginning. These theories have been
upset the past month by a rise of the
level of the lakes and the passage over
shallow places of large vessels conveying
big cargoes. One propeller, the Corsica,
has just passed through the lakes carry-
ing the heaviest cargo ever shipped on a
lake vessel.
