For some reason or aoot' er her corunxtnder foiled himself ear!y one morning off the port of lUvaua. A large. British steam er was bearing directly down upon b:m.

At the depth of from 60 to 200 feet th e crevice matter. cousiBticj; of silica, cal- cite and ore, together with the sur rounding wall rock, la a solid frozen mass. McClellan is one of the highest eastern spars of the snowy range; It has the forni of a horseshoe, with a bold es carpment of feldeparic rock nearly 2,000 feet high, which, in places, is nearly perpendicular. Ia descending Into the mine nothing unusual occurs until a depth of 80 or 90 feet is reached, when the frown territory begins and contin ues for over 200 feet. There are no in dications of a thaw, summer or winter. The whole of the 200 feet of frozen wall Is surrounded by massive rocks. The miners, being unable to excavate the frcztn material with pick and drill, in the usual way, found that the only way to mine in this peculiar lode was to kindle a huge fire against the "face" of the tunsel and in the morning take out the ore that had been thawedloose dar ing the night. In fact, this was the only mode of mining used while going through the frozen belt some ten or fif teen years since. The tunnel is now many hundred feet deep and still there is no diminution of the frost. There is. so far as ean be seen, no opening or channel through which the frost could possibly bare reached such a dep h from the surface. Besides this, there are many other'mioes in the same vicinity in a like frozen sttte. The theory is that the rock was deposited in glacial times, when there waa cold enough to freeze the earth's heart. In that case the mine is an ice bouse whose stores have remained un thawed for at least 80,000 rears 1 The phenomenon is not uncommon or inexplicable when open ings can be found through which a cur rent of air ean pass, but cases which, like the Stevens mine, show no openings for air currents, must be referred to im bedded to icebergs of the glacial period. Protecting the TUte Clan, Fatfiing along Dearborn street, the other day, says a writer ic the Chicago Journal, 1 saw a crowd watching close !y the placing in position of some enor mous panes of glass Id a handsome new building. The glass was the best French plate, and the workmen handled it aefcarefully as if it were worth somr thing more than a week's wsges. The task of putting it in place was no soon er completed than one of the workmen K rabbed a ot of whiting and with a big brush daubed a lot of meaningless marks on it. I thought it about as silly a thing as a man could do, and with the usuul reportorial cariosity a?ked the foreman why htllawsl it. The an swer was a crusher. Why," said he. "we bare to mark them that way or they'd be smashed lnno time." My look of amazement doubtless prompted hiro to further exp'anation. for he said: "You aee. the workmen around a new building get In the custom of shoving lumber, etc., through the open sash b -fore the glass is put In. Tbey would continue to do it even after the glass is in if we didn't do something to attract their attention. That's the reason you always see new windows daubed with glaring white marks. Even if a care less workman does start to shove a stick of timber through a costly plate of glass he will stop short when bis eye catches the danger sign. That white mark is just a signal which says : 'Look out ; you'll break me if you are sot care ful.' " A Welra Story. About five years ago were living In a a cottage about three miles from -Long Is'ar.d City. Frequently I walked heme by the woods. One night, cot many dya before Christmas; the train being late and the stage not runnirg, I venturrd a -short cut through the j woods. . When a little way In suddenly I felt an unseen pres-cce aad turned around, expeetirg to meet a friend, bnt could see nothlr g. Again and again I felt this something beside me, when sudden ly my right hand was grasped. I then became very much frightened and ran as fast as I could toward borne, all the while onconsciously keeping my right haod;tigbtly eloeed. Arriving at the house, exhausted and out of breath, I sank slowly In a chair, then opeoed my right hand, and to my dismay found the finger of a weman's band. I have preserved it to this day to verify my thrllliiig adventure. Slanghteiing Elk. "The Big Ilflro country has long been famous for Us game, but it will not be much longer if the wholesale slaughter of game now goicg on is not stepped." said C. II. Bland, of Chey enne, who was at the Palmer House the other day. "Ii baa been a great plsce for hunting parties from Eerope. I know of two officers of the Austrian army who baye been en a bunting trip to the head of the Wind River. Some United States officers from Fort Wasw hikie were with them, and the party killed forty head of elk and deer for the antlers alone, and the Indians are kill ing for the hide all the time. The pros pect Is good for as total annihilation of the elk as there bis been of buffalo. The settlers have recently petitioned the Interior Department to preserve the game by not allowing the Indians to leave a respiration In hunting artiep. Irate Father Young man !

One everjlrg two or tbrea years ago, as we stood in a srronp la the depot waitlDg room at E mira, there was a scuffle and loud words, and we turned to Bee the depot policemen shoTing a trampisb looking man out of the place. It was a scene to make most of the crowd smllo, as the tfflw r was a big man and his vic'im a small one, but before he bad bim outdoors, a well dressed, flue-looking man stepped for ward and demanded. "Officer, baa this man been guilty of any offense ?" 'lie's no business in here, sir," was the reply. "Wny hasn't be ?" "Because bes a tramp, ify orders are f o put 'em out." "Jost wait." He b: ought out bis waller, br.nded the forlorn-looking stranger two crisp ten dollar bills, and then turned to the officer with: "Now, let him alone. A man with twenty dollars in h.'s pocket Is do tramp." "God bless you air," whispered the rrclplent of bis bounty as be looked at the money in greatest astonishment. "I'm no vagabond. I'm afmp'y down on my !nck. I was wanting to get to Buffalo, where I hope to bit a job, and I'm willing to. work at anything and for any price :" "Just a year ago to night' In one of tbe towns on the Erie rond, a tramp strutk me for a qnarter and got it. He must have gone off on a freight train right away, and be got a lift of twenty odd miles before be was bounced. Four hours later I took a train, and, while passing from one coach to another, lost ray footing and was flung off. I struck on my head and shoulds era, and was rendered nnconclous, tboagh rot rery badly hurt. When I came to there was a quarrel over my body. Two men wanted to rob me, while a third wis holding them off. and when they attacked him he gaye them snch a drubbing that they hauled off.

In be rush and whirl of life in tbe cities it Bf emn as If tbe old. slow ways of building up a comfortable fortune would ba forgotten. Bit, thongh everything else changes, human nature remains about tbe same. R-idical dif ferences of disposition and habit wHl never be wiped out. However severely wa may be shaken tip together we Bhall never be all alike. Fretbongbt and care and refrponsiblHf y will still govern some natures, be their capacities more or less developed ; in others. Be!fs indu'gance immediate enjoyment will be tbe chief objcs. evn when man? admirable acquirements are at their command. No one who hss any experience cin doubt that money Is one of the great rracMcal forces of all organ!z3d society. The poor boy who resolves to "make monev" is not necessarily mercenary In his spirit or low In his aims. To ga'n a foothold, fev tbe ownership of property is simply one step on tbe road to success- That gained, he has trained a great lever. Every energetic, aopir irg American boy may rightly and ca toral'y look forward to the accumul -tion of properly. But to with for money, to seek it, or to use it in a selflsb. base spirit, to make it in itself the first and most important object of life, is contemptible and degraded man hood. Think about making money, then ; think about it earnestly and wild a fixed determination to do it ; but think quite seriously of other and higher things to be done. Cnllnarj Xaxlms.

A correspondent writing to the Arti $an gives a simple plan of pieventing sheet lrco stacks from rusting. He says that it bbfore raising a new chimney, each section, as it comes from tbe shop, be coated with common coal tar, then filled with light sbavinas and fired, it will resist i oat for an indefinite period rendering fotore painting unnecessary. In proof of thia be cites a cbimury which was erected lu 1S67, treated as above desciibed, and is lo-dy as brizht a it was the day it was iaised. without havitg a particle of paint applied since. The theory by which be accounts for this result is that tbe coal tar ie litter ally bnrned into the iron, closing the pores and rendering it rust proof. Sbllok Catarrb Remedy.

Tree's Beeord of its Life. It is not known to every one that t tree keeps a record within its sum of the character of each successive st-son ince I began Its growth. If a peach tree, for instance, be examined after it has been cut down, the ring of wood formed in each year will show Ly i i amount whether tbe Summer of tint year was warm or dry, or otherwise fa vorable or adverse ; and ty the condi tion of the wood, the character of tie Winter will be denoted. Spvere ear'y frost will leave a layer of soft, decayirg wood ; and later frosts will be indi cated by a change of color, if nothing more. If a Summer has ben o dry as to raufre total i st between the growth of June and September, tte annual rlrifr for tnat year will be a double one. si.d sometimes barely distinguishable as one, but liable to be taken, by a not very close observer, for two years' ! growth.
