We have been using the "Sapp Walkin
Ircadle'' upon the Wheeler & Wilson machine
used in our manufacturing department, and our
operators find them superior 10 the ordinary
treadle as used on marines generally. They fully
conI m the stateme mt OF the inventor, as regards
the power required and the rapidity with which
the machine can be run. The motion of the
treadle is such as to use only the muscles of the
lower part of the limbs, taking all strain from
the back, thus relieving them from that distress
so frequently complainedof. We recommend il
TO all ladies. Respectfully,

terfeit il is blurred and the letters are badly
formed. Over the letter ''U'' of the title s'Cni-
ted States IA the lettering ''series of 1669 Be-
tween the words ''series" and 1859" In the gem

The Police HUNTING THE TIGER.-The po-
lice authorities arranged for descent last night
on certain aliege gambling houses in this city,
but IL appears that the sporting gents got news
OF the intended raid and took precautions TO put
their places in such condition that but little
prcof could be secured. The raid was made
about 10 O'Clock. At the houses in the vicinity
OF 18th street and Pennsylvania avenue it was
comparatively a failure, but the officers were
rather more successful with the houses down
town Among those captured were Teel, SIM
RletOn, HOtchkiss. Hay den, Cooley, Thorpe, and
Nelly. Collateral security was accepted in a
majority of the cases for the appearance Of the
parties before the police court. The visitors at
the houses were treated rather leniently, nearly
AL OF them being permitted TO depart. Several
Of the houses were forced open.

THE DIsCovERER OF SALT LAKE.-A par
ty of beaver trappers who had ascended the
Missouri with Henry and Ashley found them
selves in pursuit of their occupation on Bear
river, in Cache (or Willow Valley, where
they wintered in the winter of 1S24-25 and
in discussing the course which Bear river ran,
a bet was made between two of the party,
and James Bridger (who is still alvey was Sc
lected to follow the course of the river and
determine the bet This took him to where
the river passes through the mountains, and he
discovered the Great Salt Lake. He went
to its margin and tasted its water, and
on his return reported the discovery. The
fact OF the water being salt induced the belief
that it was an arm of the Pacific Ocean, but
in the spring of 1926 four men went in skin
boats around it to discover if any streams con-
tanning beaver were to- be found emptying into
it, but returned with Indifferent success.
