1'et rifled Bodies. i A most remarkahla storv cornea from j Aspb, C !., regarding an nnexpected dad in one of the princtpal mines on the Aspen mountains. List Thursday, aa the story goes, the night shift In the Minnie ruiue put iu :2-inch holes ia the lriudt of the SOO-foot level and fired the LUst just before leaving for the surface. Oa returuiug to the mine it was found 1 that the two shots had broken into a cave, the extent of which they proceed ed explore. Going in a few feet, they found ihe wa'la covere 1 w Uh cry stalhzd 'iane, !e id that glittered like diamonds. Here and there little stalactites hung from the ceiling. The lime formation resembled laee and frleza work of wonderous beauty. The care has a descent of about twenty degrees, and then formed rooms and chambers grand beyond de sciiptloo. The men bad entered about two hun dred feet when they found a flint ax. A little further was a pool of fresh water and a current of air was felt. Further on a chamber was discovered covered with a brownish muck that waa sticky. A man who was in the lead suddenly stopped and said : "There sits a boy." Sure enough, there sat a human form. The bead was reefing on the knees and the arms were drawn around the legs, Iudiau fashion. A atone bowl and ax were found beside the figure. The body was well pre served, but in trying to lift it one arm broke off. Other bodies in different at titudes were found in the chamber, but when disturoed they crumbled. One body of a man wae brought out with the loss of arms and feet. The discovery baa caused great excitement in Aspen, as the bodies do not seem to be those of Indians. Ouions Heat (Juiuiue. One d.ty I was taken with chills ad headache, signs that my old enemy, malaria, was on Laud. My quinine box was empty, and I was looking forward to a restless, sleepless night. In des peration I peeled a raw onion and slow ly ate it, and then weut to bed. with warm feet and an extra comforter, when, prebto I I was asleep in five minutes, and awakened in the morning free free from malaria and ready for th day's duties. Our homely but strong friend will be appreciated in time as a medicine, and if agriculturists would turn their atten tion to raising a modjl onion, with the stroug scent taken out that lamts the breath so unpleasant', families will he putting their "pills" in the cellar by the barrel and the doctors would take toouiun farming.

S epheo A. 1) uigta and Jar. I.ov-j .y weie once g iHspiDg together when Abraham Lincoln came in. . The two men immediattly turnd their conversation upon the proper length of a man's legs. ".Vow," said Lovejoy, "Abe's legs are altogether too long, and youis, Douglas. I think are a little short. Let's ask Abe what he thinks of it. " The conversation had been carried on with a view to Lincoln overhearing it, and they closed by saying : "Abe, what do you think about it V" Mr. Lincoln had a far-away look aa he sat without one leg twisted around the other, but he responded to the question : "Think of what ? "Well, we're talking about the proper length of a man's legs. We think yours are too long, and Douglas' to short, and we'd like to know what you think is the proper length." "Well, said Mr". Lincoln, "that's a matter I've never iven much thought to, so of cocrse I cany be mistaken ; but my first impression is that a mio'i leu's ought to be long enough to reach from boJy to the ground. An exchauge gives the following ex perience of a French agriculturist : Two peach trees of my orchard were covered with insects just as they were about to flower. ; Having ent several tomato vines, the idea occurred to ma to place them around the branches and trunks of the peach trees to shelter them- from the sun. What was my surptise, oa the following day, to no tice that all the icaecta had disappear ed, except from the leaves beyond the Influence of the tomato p'ants. I care fully separated these leaved and ap plied the tomato to them, when the in sects disappeared as though by en chantment, and from that time the peach trees began to grow luxuriantly. Wishing t i carry the experience fur ther, I put some of the tomato leaves In water and sprinkled other plants auch as ross bushes, orange trees, pear trees, ets., with the infusion, which al so Lad the same effect of completely freeing them of insects withiu a few days.

Kellar tbe prfstidigitateur, speaking of tbe famous Hindoo magicians eaid : "A trick which puzzled me for a long time was making a pineapple glow an der a handkerchief. Tbe juggler Iaj a bandkerchltf flat on tbe ground and then begins to sing and beat on tbe torn torn, when in the centre of the hand kerchief something begins to stir and rise in pyramidal form, dialating open just about the size of a pineapple, when tbe coojorer inserts his band ander the handkerchief and palls oat a ripe pine apple. I watched this trick several times before I could get a clue to it. Tbe motioo of life puzzled me. Eat one day I took a position on the aide tbe con jurers sit on one side of a circle, mak ing tbe spectators form the rest of the circumference where I could see tbe juggler's motion clearly, and I noticed that one of the confederates put a bag like a sailor's bag, near the conjurer's bands. He sat there tailor fashion, and as he spread out Lis banckerchief on the ground I saw his hand make a a trip swiff as lightning to tbe bag and back under tbe handkerchief, and I tbonght I saw something like the tail of a snake accompany it. That gave me aa idea, afterwards, by pretending to understand the trick, and by paying one of the Hindoos four rupes, I got him to coii fuss bow tbe trick was done. The conjurer does take a snake from tbe bag placed conveniently at his elbow. When tbe cobra is put under the handkerchief he naturally coils him self up. Then tbe conjurers begin their music and tbe cobra raises hie head, and this gives tbe lifting motion to tbe handkerchief. One of tbe first things a cobra does when excited is to swell out his neck, and this makes the pyra midal shape. When tbe jaggler puts his hand under tbe handkerchief he takes with it a hollowed pineapple and removes tbe cobra inside of It conceal ed by his band. That Is one of the cleverest tricks I saw in India." t Maps by Telegraph. The facsimile telegraph, by which manuscript, maps or pictures may be transmitted, is a species of the automa tic methods already descrbed, in which the receiver is actuated synchronously with its transmitter. By Lenoir's method a picture or map is outlined with irsulatiDg Ink upon the cylindri cal surface of a rotating drum, which revolves under a point having a slow movement along the axis of the cylin der, and thus the conducting poitit point goes over the cylindrical surface in a spiral pUb. The electric circuit will be brokeo by every ink mark on tbe cylinder which is in this Dath by corresponding marks are made in a spiral lino by an ink marker upon a drum at the receiving end. To pro duce these outlines it ia only necessary that the two drums be rotated in uni son. This system is or little utility, there being no apparent demand for fac simile transmission particularly . at ao great an expense of speedy for it will be seen that instead of making a charac ter' of the alphabet by a few separate pulses, as is djDe by Morse, the number must be greaUylncreaaed. Many dots become necessary to show tbe outlines of tbe more complex characters. The pntelegraph is aa interesting type of fac simile method- In this form tbe movements of a pen in the writer's hand produces corresponding move ments of the pen at the distant station and thereby a fc simile record. Jay Gould as an Author. Tbe gieat wizud of Wall street is so OisMnctty fixed in the public mind as a financier that few ever think of him as an author. But aathorship was. In fact., his first vocation. When be was just beginning a business career, thirty years ago, and when be had bare ly attained bis majority, he made a sur vey of b:s native county, and not only published a history of it, but accom panied it with a supplementary map. His peregrinations with awbeeltxrrow over its many crooked roads are still re membered, though the financial success of his enterprise was not by any means equil to that which followed after wards. Yet his 'History of Delaware County, X. Y.,' now so scarce and difficult to procure, was a most credita ble performance. It cost no little labor and was very well done. Tbe county had a stiring history and was the cene of fierce Indian, anti-rent and Tory conflicts, all of which were faithfully and graphically related by Mr. Gould. The book, however, wtnt out of bis mind and. it is said, has been partially extinguished through bis own efforts. Whenever astray volume f appears lb commands a uniformly high price, a single copy selling at auction here once Tor forty dollars. The book waa dedi cated to Hon. Amasa J. Parker, and a fine steel portrait of this eminent jurist precedes the title pge. ' ' Cause Tor Anger. The Liverpool Jercarv relates an In cident which shews bow some English landlords treat their tenants. A pros perous fanner.

The landlord thought he had rightly punished him for his Impudence. Cases like this are arousing an angry feeling among Eng lish tenant farmers. tytrim am Llrrr (eajpaUu Is It not worth tbe small price of 73 cents to free yourself of every symptom of these distressing complaints.

Tbe recent railroad disasters on tbe Rock Island has recalled a nomber of stories reeardms; tbe eareleasness of en gineers and otber men in tbe operating department of railroads. An old rail roader was tellirjg tbe other day of the time when be ased to be conductor of a freight train. It was bis misfortune to hare abnormally lazy engineer, who would go to sleep on the slightest pro vocation. Wbeoeyer the train was side tracked to wait tbe passage of an ex press train, tbe engineer wnuld lie down on bis seat In tbe cab, prop bis fee, op agaiost the boiler bead and go fast asleep. He would remain that way until tbe nolo of tbe flying express awoke bim. Then be would yawn and prepare to pull out. ' The boys In tbe train crew did not like this. "Why can't be stay awake and watch for signals as we do ?" asked one of them one night, as tbe long train was on a aiding waiting for the arrival of "No. 6." "Well, why don't you see that he keeps awake ? asked the old railroad er, who was in charge of the train. "I will," said the brakeman. "With tbe assistance of the otber bova be firmly set tbe brakes aloog tbe train and then bung a red lantern from the roof of tbe engine cab. so that it was banging In front of the window just In front of tbe si umbering engineer. Tbese preparations made be out his foot on the old-fashioned crank whistle and tbere waa an awful shriek. Tbe engineer jumped np and saw the red light. Confused for a moment be thought be was about to run into tha rear end of another train, bo be reversed bis engine and jumped into the ditch. nearly breaking bis neck. Of course ths engine did not move a vex. The boys were all black In the wsv-cai bv this time, end wbeH sleepy edgineer re covered himself and Jimpd.up out of the ditch be thought be must have beep dreamiug. However, be lost a rear's growth and never went to Bleep at bis post a ter that. ITe was cured. A. Long Lost Process ' In tbe older Egyptian mummies tbe face of the outer casing is usually mod eled in relief. In a purely conventional way, but in this latest form of burial under the Roman empire a portrait of tbe deceased was painted on a very thin piece of wood and then fixed over tbe dead fade, , It ia very remarkable to find auch fine coloring and ekillful drawing in work of thin late date, which roust bave been turned out of an ordinary undertaker's workshop. The portraits, both male and female, are mo6t vivid and life like. The ladies are mostly dressed in a purple, garment and the men in white, with a red orph ey. The modeling o tbe nsh is very skillful and in some casos the coloring reminds one of tbe Venetian school from Its rich depth of tone. A special point of interest about these paintings Is tteir technical execution in hot wax, or encaustic process, as it waa called. Tbe pigments were mixed with melted wax and then Cxed in their place by holding a charcoal brszier near the surface of tb naintinor. as ia de scribed by Vitruvius. Tbe somewhat lumpv impasto of tbe surface Is doe to the hardening of the melted wx when the brush touched tbe cold surface of the panel, and, owing to the non--absorbent nature of tbe wood, the sub sequent application of beat was not able to drive tbe wax below tbe surface. as was the cas with encaustic paint ing upon -tncco. One of these por traits is noticeable from its ornamental framing, with a flowing pattern, formed by pressing wood stamps upon soft stucco, which was afterward jjilt. a pro cess exactly like that which was so often used to decorate mediaeval pic tures on panel, especially retaules. or ancone, as tbe Venetians called them. - Cocoannts As many as 17,000 000 to 20 000 000 cocoacute come into N-w Toik, ci y every year, chit-fly from Ceotral Amen ca, though tbey are grown in nearly all the tropical countries.
