UdU'ult and Daug.roiu Work In the lleserls unit Mountains— A Furlsus Sand storm-Hie tflevts ot Mirage--City Re solvfit into a Hsia of Bowlders. | Although th« boundary line between the United States aud Mexico was de- , fined over half a century ago by the ! Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, after the j Mexican War, there has seldom been a • | time since then when the precise loea- j j tion of this international limit has not ; | given cause for vigorous disputes and \ j often bloody border warfare between ' 1 thp Mexican and American settlers neaf j ! the line. ] After the treaty of 1553 a survey was ; made of the line, to effect some neces- i ! sary changes. Monuments were put up I i j MEXICAN UOCWDARY MOUUMENT. j along the arbitrary portion of the boundary west of the Rio Grande, but i most of these landmarks were simply rude piles of alone, and the. ease with which they could be destroyed or re moved was soon discovered by the nearby settlers, never loath to seize ail opportunity for a quarrel with their i neighbors on the other side of the in- ! ternational fence. Finally, in 1882, | owing 'to continual boundary quarrels, : a convention to settle them was ar- | ranged between the two countries. Hut on account of various delays it ; was not until November, 1891, that ! members of the International Boundary ; Commission were at last appointed. ; By the month of June, 1N94. all work j tlie entire line,, both surveying ; and monument-erecting, was finished. ! Two hundred and fifty-eight, monu- ! liients, some of stone, and some of iron, j had la "ii placed along the seven bun- | tired miles of boundary west of the Kio j Grande. The intervals between ihem j were varied to suit the. requirements : of the different religions, but the dis- ! tnnces averaged about two and three- | quarter mil'-* between each two. Smuo of the experiences of the mem- j bers of the survy are well worth a more I extended description than can be given | here. The mountainous region for j many miles about Nogales, Ariz., is one | of tlie roughest and most arid on the j continent. In this neighborhood waa 1 seen for the first time the strange and j ungainly giant cactus, called the "su- j giiaro" by the Mexicans. Its fruit, I when ripe, is used as food by the Fa- 1 pago Indians of the region, who eat it 1 fresh, dried and preserved, and make from it, besides, a slightly intoxicating j drink. In the broad valley called ihe ] Moreno Fiat, west of the Baboquivari ! Mountains and about fifty-five miles i west of Nogales, a frightful standstorm was encountered on July 3. 189:1. About 4 o'clock in the afternoou, a dense, dark-brown cloud was seen ris ing in tiie south. The brilliant sun was soon overcast, and in a few moments after the cloud was first observed the storm broke in all its fury. In ten or fifteen minutes it was as black as mid night; the atmosphere was filled with loose soil of the valley to a height of several hundred feet; respiration be came almost impossible, and it was on ly by breathing through a handkerchief held in front of the mouth that suffo cation was avoided In haif an hour the wind began to subside, the darkness diminished, and in a little more than two hours ihe setting sun shone faintly through the dust particles that still filled the air. L Wonderful mirages were seen while crossing the lonely deserts. Just be fore sunrise craggy peaks would ap pear. capped by similar inverted peaks, which would gradually flatten out irilo strange forms. Once a city, with all Its buildings, appeared in a valley to the northward, but the morning sun resolved it into a mass of large bowl ders near the base of a mountain. At another time, on the bare Yuma Desert, the l-econnoissance party seemed to be In a level depression, surrounded on every side by a veitical wall of rock, iiuy to one hundred feet high, which moved with them its they journeyed tow ud the river, but lessened in height until it finally vanished. The com- i monest deception was seen in the heat o" tli-- day. when beautiful lakes, fring < ! with trees, lav apparently only a 1 v hundred yards away. The details v ere so < vr-'- to the reflections • the water, that the party did not * 'i.der that tlr ;;y travelers were of t 11 lured from i'ie oad to procure this water, which never could be reached. ■ ■ mirage dt.-< ort on of ihe size and ; '''in of animal;; was also remarkable, lii one ease herd of wild horses was Mistaken 1 a herd of antelope anti ii'lowed fi..' several miles before the 1 .istake wa., discovered.

Glossoutancio is a new "science," in troduced by a Mis- Erbere No of Paris, consisting of reading tlie character by the foi m and size of the tongue. The guiding principles are as fol lows- If 1 lie tongue is long it is an !n --dic-ati v of f rankne, s; if it is short, of dissimulation: if it is broad, of ex ! if narrow, of concentra tion. When the tongue Is both long and large it impli**^-,t the possessor is a great gossip, frank TO disagreeableness, and thoughtless. if the tongue be long and narrow its owner Is only half frank, thinking aa much as is uttered, but not always uttering all that is thought. If tlie tongue he short and broad, there is promise of plenty of gossip— and falsehoods; It talks a great deal, but says little of what is roall> thought. \( short and narrow, it indicates deep running and lying; impenetrability and prudence. This tongue belongs to thoae persons always ready to make mis takes, but eager to inspire confidence. *<■ ••■* Siis?? -**».,. - J IB o*.
