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

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.

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

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.

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.

Hindoo Tricks.
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."

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. ' who waa ' desirous of
purchasing his boldlnpr, which has been
occupied by hit family for ton gener
ations, waited upon his landlord and
made known his desire" stating that be
had saved .tSOO. Out broke the land,
lord : You have rav-d 800 on my
land ! I tell you what -I'll Jo; .I'Jl
raise your rent i:luO a year !'!,, And bo
did It. Tbe rent was an Impossible one."
Tbe tenant bad to turn from the bouse
in which be was born.- and the farm
was effered for new occupation.- It bad
to.be let at jL.0 leas rent than was actu
ally beir- paid by th hereditary tenant,
but all attempts to conclude a reasona
ble arrangement on the part of the sav
ing farmer were useless. The landlord
thought he had rightly punished him
for his Impudence. Cases like this are
arousing an angry feeling among Eng
lish tenant farmers.

to free yourself of every symptom of these
distressing complaints. If yoa think so call

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

nearly breaking bis neck. Of course
ths engine did not move a vex. The
boys were all black In the wsv-cai bv

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.
