ON Wednesday party of some 60 men left Tucson to look for gold somewhere within one days march of Camp Grant They go upon information given by an Apache squaw, who accompanies them, and if she fails to lead them to abundance of gold, she gets no pay-otherwise, S1O0. Some say she went so far as to declare in the event of her failure to fulfill her prom ise, she was willing they should hang her.
 We understand Captain Dunn of Camp Lowell is of the party. May they meet with great success.

The Red Ceni.

designed by Benjamin Franklin. This
coin was ordered by act Of Congress,
July 6, 1867, and has on diverse a sun

at the right, "17S7." In exeegue,
"Mind yOur business" Reverse, an
inteFlOcked chain Of thirteen links,
representing the COnfederated States.
A circular band within the chain,
with the legend, "United States" In
the center Of this band, in three lines,

size Of the ordinary cents coined i'm
later years.
The Washington cents Of 1872 were
not n regular issue, and there is not q
single specimen Of these patterns or
private issues having the ''bust of
Washington on one side and thirteen
links upon the other" In 1873 the
regular issue Of cents leoined by the
United States Mint, in this cityj com

verse the head Of Liberty, with flow

links, representing the States then
composing the Union. There were at
least a bakers dozen Of types and va

After the French liberty came the
addition Of liberty cap and pole,
which in 1896 gave way for the "Fillet

a curious calculation has been made
by DR.. Thomson, the well-knOWn
philosopher, 10 show in what a degree
matter can be divided and still be SEN
sible to the eve. He Dissolved a grain
of nitrate Of lead i'm 5000 grains Of
water, and passed through the solution
a current of sulphureted hydrogen,
when the whole water became percep-
tibly discOIored. Now a grain Of wat
er may be be regarded as about equal
to a drop Of that liquid, and drop
may easily be spread Outso as to cover
a square inch Of surface. But under
an ordinary microscope the mIlliOnth
part of a SQUARE inch may be discovered
by the eve. The water, therefore, can
be divided into 500, 900, ,OO0,OO parts
But the lead in a grain Of nitrate Of
lead weighs 0.G2 grain; an atom OF
lead accordingly cannot weigh more
than 1910, 900, coo, ,OOOth Of a grain /;
while the atoms Of sulphur, which, in
combination with the lead, rendered
it visible, could not weigh more than
LBS, 900, ,OOO, 900; that is, the twO-bil-
liOntl part Of a grain. But what is a
billiOn-OF, rather what conception
can De formed Of such u quantity III

Of two hundred per minute, and TO
work without intermissiOn for twelve

O25 years and 319 days. But this may
be nothing to the division Of matter.
There are living creatures 50 minute
that hundred millions Of them might

Great Snake.

The vicinity OF Rittersville, Lehigh
County, has been thrown into a fever
Of excitement by the appearance there
of a monster black snake, measuring
from twenty-five to thirty feet in
length, and the thickness Of 4 COM
mon stOve-pipe Last week she was
come across by lightning-TOd ped
dler. His horses suddenly made a
stop, and on looking about for the
cause he saw in front of him across
the road the huge reptile, its head in
rye field, while its tail was just leav-
ing the fence on the other side of the
road. IL followed its course through
the rye, which was seen TO sway
backward and forward as it moved
through the field. The man hurried
on and informed the neighbOrs, who
followed the snake with guns, but il
took refuge between some rocks and
was lost to view. Many other per-
sons claim to have seen the snake at
various times and places within the
past year.
Last year she was chased through n
clover field, the path made by her
course looking as If heavy log had

tember last she was seen near Lehigh,
slowly traversing a field, with head
erect, and bearing in her mouth q
large rooster which she had captured,
and at another time a sportsman Of
South Bethlehem suddenly came upon
her as she was in the act of catching q
cat in her tightening grasp. The
snake being of such immense size,
and manifesting great rage, the young
man became almost palsied with fear,
and Immediately ran away from the
terrible locality, not once thinking of
his gun, which he might have used in
destroying the monster. 4 party to

Women VS.. Female.

The term "femaleU as a synonym
for woman, is q vulgarism that ought
to be scOurged out of good society. As
it is equally applicable to One-half Of
the brute creation, its use instead Of
woman, lady, or girl, tends to lower
the dignity and position of woman
hood. When it is used without the
proper substantive, one is sometimes
provoked to inquire T-het her il is the
female sheep, or bear, or swine, that is
Those who have a trIIe re-
speet for woman would never employ
a term so indelieaUe and objectionable
as this, if they realized how bad IL IS
There may he occasions when its use
is correct and unavoidable but to
speak of schools for young women as
female seminaFies, or female colleges,
is not only ungFammatieal, but essen
TALLY vulgar Gail Hamilton, in one
of her "spasnls Of sense'f in the indie
pendent, holds up young lady to rid
ieule because she objects to being call
ed a female teacher. The objection is
reasonable and just. We do not say
"malen teachers, Gmale" schools,
''malep colleges, certainly the great
army of patient, hard working, un-
darnaid ,voman. should have the I,ri y
ilege of being called @wOmeft, I" and
not set down as females -
How absurd il would seem to hear
people say Harvard male university.
Yet is that any mOrde ridiculous than
to say Rutgers female institute, or
Troy female seminary? How often
we hear men speak OF meeting ''fe-
males" in the street. Would they
feel cOmplimented or insulted were
the ladies to pass them By as "males?"
The use Of the term is another evidence
Of the low estimate placed upon wO-
man for these long and weary ages
1t is the result of the haFem idea,
which regarded her rs a mere human
animal, created for the sole purpose

hood, there are opposing bigOts who
quote the Bible in its condemnation.

are the foundation of the woman

VOLUME 23-NUMBER 40
LamtntsbIe Suicide.

West Liberty and the vicinity were
terribly shocked, Monday afternoon,
by the startling intelligence that Wy
k0ff Piatt, had committed suicide, by
hanging, ut his fathers residence, At
MacIcherk- The sad particulars, -
We gather them from the cOrOner's
jury, are about - follows. At one
O'clock, the young man, who was about
l6 years Of a@,-, was seen about the
house, apparently rs cheerful and live
ly A. ever. Twenty minutes later, his
brother Jacob entered = room Of his
fathers Old house, where he was hOr-
FOR stricken by the sight of his broth
ers dead body hanging from the cell
ing. He ut once caught hold of the
body and raised it, ut the same time
calling for help. In an instant his
father, mother and Others who We're
near rushed i'm, and took the body
down, and made every effort to resuS-
citate it, sending at once for medical
aid; but all in vain, rs the spirit had
left the body, never tO return. 1t ap-
pears that the young man accom-
plished the fatal deed, by fastening
one end of = wooden c0verlet through
a stove pipe hole in the ceiling, and
tying 4 single knot with the other end
about his neck. His body was entire
ly naked, and n piece of white cloth
was spread over his fan His feet
touched the floor, his arms hung by
his body, and his head inclined to one
side. When discovered, his body WAS
warm and lin Der.
The cause of the terrible deed, can
not be cOnjectured. The young man,
who was the favorite Of the family,
was cheerful and lively, and possessed
of an intelligent mind. In social cir
cles, he was the life of the company,
when mingled with the Young peO-
pie, and there was nothing in his
character to indicate any such fearful
termination of his life. Yet it Is now
thatihe had contemplated sui
eide, before, n a phial Of ehlOrUfOFm
was found i'm his bureau drawer, with
the label Ofa ChillieOthe drug store Oh
il. I'm the testimony, we noticed one
fact that WAS drawn out that may in
dicate in measure one cause that
helped bring the young man TO such
state of mind as the suicide must labor
under, and that was, that he was a
great reader of dime novels.
As may be eOnjectured, Gen. Piatt,
his father, Is almost frantic with un-
grief, over thesudden and
heart-rending bereavement; and he
and his family have the sineerest and
deepest sympathies Of a wide circle of
friends and acqUaintances.
Coroner sherman impanneled a jury
on the 18th, composed of r. N. Jor-
don, w. G. Kavenaugh, B. +. Henkle,
]. NJ. Glover, Wm. Keesecker, and
James Mcdonald, and after an
inquest, the jury returned the verdict
that the deceased came TO his death
by hanging with his own hands, and
not by means of violence from any
one. e.-BeHefoRiGi1e Republican.
