lack of water as well as insure sufi
eient damning- ground, a bi? floating1
4-old-savinj dredge has teu con
tmcted and is now at work on the
Idaho bank of the Snake river about
tn miles above Pavett.
It is a etern-wbeel fiat boat propelled
by steam. Substantially constructed,
t-jrtv-Cve feet long and twenty-two
feet'wide, it is equipped with a thirty
live horse power marine engine and
boiler and adapted in every way for
ravi-aticu Idaho's fxeat waterway.
With a slight alteration it could be
tram formed into a steam dredje and
u-ed to scoop up fcand and gravel from
t!e bottom of the ktreani. That has
never been attempted. As in the past,
operations are now conned to work
in,' bars oat of the ltd or channel of
the river. The method pursued is to
anchor alongside one of these gravel
deposits aia by the use of scrapers

The jrravel is scooped tip by buckets
attached to an endiess chain. There
are forty-el-ht of these recept.'les on
a belt sixty feet in length, and each
has a capacity of about twenty pounds
f dirt, which is delivered into a hr.rr
jt. This is also an agitator, and the
process employed may be described as
u tttam rocker, with iheexccptionthat
it has an end motion instead of one

ier plates with quicksiiver. -The tail

the f. rce of a stream of water of one
fctm:re4 and fifty mineral inches, sup
plied by a China pump, run by the en
gine which drives ait the other ma
chinery. The gravid is worked so
thoroughly that no gold escapes in the
tailings that are dumped into the riv
er. An avera.ee of one hundred tons of
pmvelare daily handled, and f this
work three men are employed an en
picetr, one to work the scraper, and
another one who shovels the dirt into a
pile so that the buckets can scoop r,p a
full load.
The bar now beinr; worked covers an
area of ten to Eileen acres. The pold

will not pay to handle to a fcreater
depth than one fool u eighteen inches.
This sh-- a value of one and one-half
to three cents a pan. A clean-up is
made everr nitfht, aaI tij average of
the runs for the Cr-t three days was
vcrv satisfactory to the owner of the
craft- He says "he expects to take out
up-vard of one hundred dollars a day
as Ion? as he works which will be un

r-one over the bar which now engages
his attention he will tackle another.
INDIANS AND COMETS.
A Bclwr Tliat the Son rhaaaa Stars ana

When the last coni"t was streaming
in the sky I was camp-nf one nijrht in
a canyon near the foot of Cook's peak.
In the party was an old and for an
Indian fairly intelligent l"te. named
Sam. Sam had been attached to some
cavalry troop at Fort Cummins a a
scout, but his day of leaving the service
lin-r reached he attached himself to
rae for a consideration says a writer
in the St. Louis Post-Lnspateh.
Pointing to the comet I ai-kcI Sam
what he could say ia its defend from
the standpoint of a Ute. Sam was. un
like most Indians, a great talker, and
could speak Ecplish very well, lie
was ambitious to perfect himself in
the lanfruag-e, and readily seized on
every chance for a talk. Indeed. I
discovered him on one ortwooccai-jna
aU alone and talkiu? vip.i-ous!y at a
mark like a savage Demosther.es.
"Tell about that?"' fai l Sam. po'int
inif toward the comet. "Sam do it in
a heap easy. The nn is the man and
ho have moon for vjuaw. The stars

the stars heap "fraid, and when the

Lidc. tut the moon is pood. She

when the sun sleeps she comes out in

they come out of the places they hid
in. and forpet to be 'fraid and play.
Hut when the Bun wakes apain they

catches them some-times. This one."
continued Sam. aain pointinp to the
comet, "the sun catch one time. He
pot away, thouph. but the sun hit him
and hnrt him. That's why he bleed
so. Now he's heap scared and so keeps
his face always toward the place where
tl,: sun is sleeping." .

A GOLDEH CORE. r
Tacts Which Make Tenabla the fhtorj of
the Kurtb Vrltow Canter.
I id you ever stop to consider the faci
that in all probability the center of the
earth is a c'obe of pold, iridium and
platinum? These metals are, of course,
in a liquid state, the iridium at the ex
a.i center (that is, providinp there is
i.ot vmm heavier metal at present un
known to man occupy inp that place-,
the platinum next and the plobe of
pold surroundinr the other two.
" liut." you say. ""what proof have we
that your proposition is a tenable hy
l;thesis." In answer I would say two
proofs at least, and perhaps more:
l'irst, the three metals mentioned are
the heaviest known substances, cum-l-arel
bulk for bulk: this beinp the case
they would be naturally attracted to
the center of our planet. -In the Ve
pinninp," as Moses would say, the
srtii was liquid, if not paseous. In
cither case the heavy metals mentioned
were held in solution. By gradual con
densation the metals settled to the cen
ter: Iridium first (with the proviso
above mentioned;, platinum next, gold
last Apes apo when the crust of the
earth was thin, very tain, all the gold
now known wa vomited out in volcan
ic eruptions. This last mentioned fact
is the second reason for believing that
our globe has golden center core
woven around a nucleus of iridium and
platinum. A third reason for believing
that there is gold at the center is this:
The earth, as a whole, weighs five
times as much as a globe of water the
same bulk, while the rocks forming the
same outer crust are less than threo
times as heavy as water. SL Louis Ee

SWARMS OF W!LD GEESE.
Omm f the Ttrrm Whkh Baaa tka Wheat
i rawer la t aliform la.
"I had an experience with wild peese
in Caforaia, sad it is so big that few.
except those who are familiar with
them, can readUy believe it." said
State Senator Dare to a San Francisco
Examiner reporter. I own a ranch
cf fcTirtn thousand acres at Knight's
fodicp. on the Sacramento the Yolo
ranch. I raise a great deal of wheat,
and every year as soon as the wheat
eomes op the country is overrun with
gecie- I have seen droves of them two
or three mUtS iczg, and so thkk that
n hco von shoot into them with rifle
von are bound to hit some of them.
Thcv are so plentiful that I am obliged
to hire herders to keep them oil. They
settle in great bands. A band will set
tle down on ve acres, say, and yon
won't hear a quack nor a squawk, but
the geese are there and very industri
ous, and before you know it they have
pulled op and eaten very bit of the
grain. They have a skiilf ul way of
grasping the tender shoots in their
nioulhs and pulling and relaxing
and pulling again till they get
the swollen grains with the blades
and then eat the whole, A
storm is almost sure to bring
them in large numbers, but they often
come in entirely fair weather. I keep
many herders to drive them away. If
it were not for this I wouln't have any
wheat. The men are armed with loud
sounding W inchesters and they keep
shooting amor.g them all the time. At
nipht the geese don't bother, but early
in the morning and all through the
day they literally swarm. The herd
ers go out very early in the morning
and stay ail ay. It is a continual bat
tle. The geese must be kept going all
the time or the wheat is gone. When
the men are plowing they get very
close to the geese. Take fourteen or
sixteen teams, each with a tig plow
that turns four furrows. They come
along in a string. The first one is a
good way off. The next is a little
closer, and so on till the last one is
fifty feet or more nearer than the first
one was. The geese don't notice this
and a man can knock them over as he
goes by. I saw one man take a monkey
wrench and bowl away and kill one.
In fact, if anyone wants geese he may
easily kill them by thousands, and I
was almost going to say millions DP
there. I have killed them myself
many a lime. The annual visitation
of the geese at Knight'a Landing is
not a joke. It is the sternest kind of
reality and means a heavy loss if war
fare is not kept up against them."
MARRIAGE IN MASSACHUSETTS.
Soaua Reaeon Why Tankaa Weaaea Hat
Loai Outnumbered the Ilea.
The excess of women over men has
long been a feature of the population
statistics of Massachusetts, and since
Mormonism is not permitted to flour
ish in that progressive state the natu
ral effect of this feminine surplus has
been an unusual cumber of old maids.
The cause, says the New York rress,
is probably Horace Greeley's advice to
young men on the subject of going
w st. The Massachusetts young man
has lieen going west ever since, but we
decline to believe that it is his fault
that the Massachusetts young woman
Las tot pone west with him. She
stayed behind, not that she loved the
Massachusetts young man less, bet
that she loved Massachusetts mere,
especially Boston. But as the Massa
chusetts young woman who did not
go west with the young man of Horace
Oreeley's day became an old maid she
missed the yoctg man. She was left
to lavish the wealth of affectioa upon
cats, birds and other pets. And thus
it happened that a Massachusetts old
aiaid. having nobody else to leve her
fortune to. recently left it t j her pet
sat.
There are thoe who think the ten
dency of o:rt:me is torrard a reduction
in the ratio of marriages to the popu
lation of the marriageable. In one
sense this is a result of the continual
improvement in the independence and
general social condition of women.
Not only ere they no longer the slaves
of men, but they are not obliged to tie
themselves to men in order to get a
living. As civilisation increases the
number of occupations in which skill
md tact and passive endurance make
-uec-s&, women, being often superior
in these respects, take possession of a
greater number of places and crowd
nen out. The tables seem to be turned
against the inquiry of Miss Mona
Laird: "Is Marriage a Failure'.'" This
qucst-on caused a great deal r.f discus
sion in print a few years apo. Hit is
to be easwered in the afilrmative
which heaven forfend then it must
also be declared, on the slreng i' of
the latot returns from Massachusetts,
that sinpleness is a failure too. This
leaves the relative merits of marriage
and of singlenos just where they were
before Miss Mona Caird dared to prick
the alleged bubble of matrimony with
her pen. If an old p-aid who died rich
was. nevertheless, so circumscribed in
the wealth of affection and home life
as to be obliged to endow a cat, what
can be said cf the snccess of old maids
who never get rich, even in money?
I.lcTatora for the Queen.
Since Queen Victoria met with an
accident at Windsor castle eleven or
twelve years ago, when one of her
knees was injured, &he has found it very
troublesome and sometimes painful
either to ascend or descend a staircase.
This difficulty has lately increased so
much that an elevator has just been
placed in the private apartments of
Windsor castle for her majesty's use,
and another is to be fitted up at Os
borne. The queen has a greater num
ber of steps to ascend at Osborne than
at any other of the palaces, as her own
apartments are in the pavilion near
the top of the house. Elevators are
also being made f tr Buckingham pal
ace and Balmoral, which will be ready
for use in the spring. There was one
in Buckingham palace for some years,
which was made for the duke of Alba
ny, although after his death it was re
moved. A DESPERATE FIGHT. W
Eaeooater of a Britisher with aa ladlaa
Leopard.
A striking illustration of British
courage and dogged persistence wa
given by an oCicer in India, named
Ape her, in a fight with a leopard. He
was going round a rock, following the
beast, which he had wounded, when
the leopard, meeting toe hunter, dashed
at him. Apcher jumped one side and
fired; the shot only staggere 1 the
leopard. The man started to run, but
before he could turn round the beast
was almost upon him.
He struck the animal with the gun
as it was in the act of striking him, and
so warded off the blow from his bead.
Bnt the beast's claws from one paw
cut his right cheek and the other paw
knoclaed the gun cut of the officer's
hands.
With all his strength the man dashed
his right hand into the beast's mouth,
and with the left grasped him around
the throat The leopard caught him
near the elbow and bit through the
forearm. Exerting all his strength
Apcher threw the leopard into a rift
between the rocks and on its back.
With his knee on its chest, one hand in
its mouth, the other grasping its
throat, he held the struggling animal
His native boy came np with a double
barrel guo.
- "Pat it into the leopard's month and
fire," said Apcher.
The boy obeyed, polled both triggers
and killed th beast, fortunately with
out hitting the hand. The clogged
officer's left hand and arm were much
injured; every 6nper of the right hand
was lacerated, the band bitten through
and the forearm bitten in five places.

OUR PHOSPHATE MINES.
A Newly Developed Industry of
Koch Xcapcrt&Eoe.
OosUnad ta Beewa a go area of Great
rrollt to Aaaenraa Acrtcaltarists
Soma Talaabla lafor
aaattom. We find in a special report of the
commissioner of labor the latest statis
tics relating to the phosphate Industry
of the Cnittd States. The report, says
the New York San, not only shows the
actual output of our phosphate mines,
but estimates the period during which
the industry may be expected to con
tic ue.
Carroll D. Wright, the commissioner
of labor, points out in his introduction
that the value of the discovery of phos
phates, from an agricultural view
point, cannot be overrated. Previonsly
to 1S41 the principal commercial fertil
izer had been bone dust, but, in the.
vear named, guano was introduced from
the Chinch islands of Pern and, ow
ing to the greater solubility of this
commodity, the demand for it rapidly
increased. As time went on, however,
the inadequate and rapidly decreasing
supply of guano and bone dust led to
the active development of the phos
phate industry in South Carolina In
and in Florida some twenty-on
years later. In 1S9L. the last year for
which statistics are complete, the
quantity of phosphate produced in the
I'nited States was 737.133 tons, much
the larger portion of which came from
South Carolina, where at present the
mines are most rigorously worked.
The next largest producer of the fer
tilizer is France, which, in the year
named, was credited with 400,000 tons,
after which should be placed Belgium
with 200,000. The entire output of the
world In 19JI, outside of the United
States, was 630,000 tons.
The home consumption of the fertil-i-xr
takes place chiefly in the southern,
eastern and western states. It is con
spicuously in demand for the cotton
crop of the south, for the fruit and
vegetable crops of the east and for the
grain crops of the west. As regards
the situation of the principal deposits,
we learn that there are in South Car
olina twenty-three land mines and
peven river mines; that these Is one
land mine in North Carolina, while
there are no fewer than eighty-eight
land mines and eighteen river mines in
Florida, The number of acres con
trolled for mining purposes in Florida
is 179,S48; In North Carolina. 2,500. and
in South Carolina 09,790, or a total of
252,153 acres. The total capital in
vested in plant in Florida is gil40,5S2,
and lu land SU,3,0G7; in North Caro
lina the plant Ls represented by 82.000
and the land by SIO0.000; in South Car
olina the plant is worth $2,503,200 and
the land S2,620,O0. The total average
number of employes engaged in the
production of phosphates is 9,173, but
this does not include all the labor in
one mine or the skilled labor in two
mines, the facts in relation to which
arc not reported. The total amount of
money expended for labor was 2,473,
513, and the average earnings of a
miner amounted to $270 per annum.
We are assured that great pains
has been taken by the department
Df labor to collect trustworthy in
formation a to the amount of phos
phates which may reasonably be ex
pected to be delivered hereafter from
the mines. The quantity in sight in
South Carolina is computed at 14.000,
000 tons; in this state the industry, at
the present rate of production, will ex
tend over twenty-eight years from
lb&l. The quantity of phosphate visible
in North Carolina, Georgia and other
states is put down at 1,000,000 ton
while Florida is credited with the
enormous quantity of 133,056,116 tons.
Taken together these estimates show a
total of 143.056,41$ tons of phosphate
in sight, and enable us to measure the
future opportunities for the employ
ment of labor in this Industry.
IRRIGATION IN THE WEST.
The Taat DUtrlrta in Which Rata Sever
Falls for Many Month of the Yer.
The easiest way to make a new farm
is to obtain from the government a
homestead grant of prairie land in a
state where enough rain falls to in
sure good crops. Then little work
need be done, except to plow the soil
and plant the seed. Nearly the whole
of the eastern half of the United States
was covered with a forest when the
first settlers occupied it, and an im
mense amount of work was needed to
cut down the trees and pull out or
burn the stumps before the land could
1-e made suitable for growing grain
and fruit If these forests were stand
ing now they would be immensely
valuable for their lumber; bnt the
pioneers found them enemies which
must be removed. The finest trees
were sacrificed to fires and to the
building of log houses.
A f ter the forest lands were cleared
and cultivated, the people of the United
States discovered the value of the great
prairies of the middle west, which
have made possible the growth of Chi
cago, Minneapolis, St Paul, Duluth,
Omaha, Kansas City and St Louis. Al
ready the best of the prairie lands are
taken. The last of them were seized
when the Cherokee strip was opened,
and little remains, except the dry soil
of the Kocky mountain region. The
L'nited States government still con
trols for the benefit of the people 542,
000.000 acres of this arid land scattered
through Arizona, California, Colorado,
Idaho, Montana. Nevada, New Mexico,
Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyom
ing. There is enough of this land to
give 5,420.000 families farms of 100 acres,
and as five people are about the
average number in a family, there is
still pnblic land enough in the United
States to provide homes upon farms
for at least 27,000,000 persons, provided
this land can be made fertile. For
tunately most of it can, bnt only at
the expense of labor almost as great as
that of clearing the forests from the
New England, middle and southern
states. In one case something had to
1 taken away that is, the trees. Ia
the other something must be added
that is, water, which is not supplied
by rains, for in some parts of the west
rain almost never falls, and in south
ern California the sky is cloudless from
May to November.
Irrigation is not new to the Eoeky
mountain region, for there are in New
Mexico and Arizona the remains of
reservoirs and irrigation ditches used
by a people who disappeared before
the Indians came; but it is compara
tively new so far as white settlers are
concerned. The water of streams,
lakes and artesian wells ia used for
irrigation, being allowed to flow in
ditches to the fields where it is wanted.
For orchards, vineyards, most kinds of
vegetables and for alfalfa a kind of
giant clover irrigation is said to be
actually superior to rain; watering by
irrigation does not mean loss of sun
shine, nor does it involve storms which
rot or beat down crops. It merely
iupplies water to the roots of plants
and in the right quantities and at the
right time. Most of the California
fruits with which everybody in the
east is now familiar, are grown on irri
gated land, and S .631.3S1 acres of land
in the Unitud States were irrigated
when the census of 1990 was taken.
People who believe in irrigation as a
substitute fur rain assert that by its
aid all the people in the United States
could be fed from land that is now
prctieaUy desert Harper's Young
