A SUCCESSFUL DIAMOND UNTER-Ihe
Troy Times says: "A few months since John
VanderwerkeD, grandson Of our esteemed
tellow-citzen Thomas White, threw up good
situation in the extensive hardware store of j.
W. Warren & Co., to seek his fortune in the
diamond fields of Africa He bad read of the
discovery of the precious stones in the beds Of
rivers there, and being young and adventurous,
he determined to tempt fortune in her chosen
haunts Accordingly he sailed for the far-of
shores of Africa. He arrived in safety, and at
once went to work with the will and resolution
OF Trojan. In company with two other per-
sons he started for the diamond regions, and
forming a partnership with them, he set to
work about thirty negroes in the beds of the
diamond rivers. His success, though not un-
exampled, was far beyond that of many others
who had gone there in search of wealth. One
day he picked up an S2carat diamond. This
he sold for $40 200. On another occasion his
search was rewarded with an So carat stone,
and this he sold for sl $50. Health falling,
Mr.. Vanderwerken was advised to return
home, and has reached Troy quite well and
hearty He has various specimens of African
diamonds with him, some of them of large
size. and all valuable Mr.. Vauderwerken is
still interested with his partners in the enter
prise they have begun, and will, in the course
of few weeks, return to the diamond regions.

COOKING IN OREGoN.-There is place in
Oregon called the Smoky Valley, where the
people have curious way of cooking. They
do not have the trouble of making fire every
morning when they wish to get breakfast =
They just walk out with their kettles, coffee
pots and whatever else they need, and cook at
the boiling springs. The water seems great
deal better than common boiling water, and all
they need to do is to have their kettles in it for
short time, and their food is nicely cooked,
They are able even to bake in it. The bread
is put into.a tight saucepan, and lowered into
the boiling food for an hour or two, and then
drawn up most exquisitely baked, with but a
thin rim on the crust over 1t. Meat is cooked
here, and beans which are the miners great
luxury. 1t takes but minute to cook eggs,
or to make pot of coffee or tea but if there
should chance to be "sip between the cup
and the lip, the food would be gone beyond
recovery.

EnOch Arden.

EnOch Arden.
a shipwrecked sailor waiting for sail,
No sail from day to day"
Every one has read the beautiful poem of
Enoch Arden" by Alfred Tennyson, but
very few have seen its grand characters put
in life, and at last an opportunity is offered.
On Monday evening Edwin Adams, so
Justly celebrated for his exquisite delinea-
tons. will open at the Varieties in 81 Enoch
Arden" and assume the character by that
maine.
Mr.. Adams impersonation of Enoch Is
simply immense. His heart and soul are
concentrated in the play. and it seems more
like reality than fiction. His grace ard
manly bearing, together with his deep
voice win the admiral ton of the audience.
and they soon forget that it is Edwin Adj
ans. but the thought is deeply imbedded in
their minds that it is Tennysons ideal Of
Enoch -irtlsn. So grand, so superb, so emo
tional, does he draw his imagination to the
piece that he enraptures his listeners, who
sit bound in chains stronger than stee!.
The piece to read is superb. but to see it ac-
cording to Edwin Adams idea is majestic.
