BY MOX NICK.

At dawn of day we are again on our
Journey. Nothing Of note occurs, and
in a week from date We are in the
lively camp of Hogem Here we find
every shade of human nature; we will
briefly notice the career of one, aud
we are done. They were immigrants
from New York. The father had died
on the way, and the mother and daugh-
ter had found their way to this place.
The mother was keeping a boarding
house. We boarded there. A man,
we know him not, was steadily insinu-

were to be married next spring. Spring

gone. We had wound mp the summers s
work. Again the golden hue ofautumn
was throwing its glowing mantle Ger
the lap Of nature, when we left the
mountain gorge, where our claim was,
and came into town. There was great
commotion at the hotel. Julia was
dead. Rough miners stood around, men
that had went through every conceiv>
able phase of rough existence, weeping.
They made her grave on the fiat back
of town, beneath the pines. We fol-
lowed the corpse to its last resting place
and lowered it down, an eternal COM
panion in body Of the grand old pines
around. There was one there that wor
shipped her. He knelt at the grave
and prayed, and, o! what prayer -

He carried with him the clothing Of

I was aroused by some one roughly

FINGER MARKS A short time ago
IA gentleman employed mason to do
some work for him, and among other
things to thin whiten' the walls OF one
of his chambers This thin whitening
is almost colorless until dried. The
gentleman was much surprised on the
next morning after the chamber was
finished, to find on the drawer of bu-
reau standing in his room white fiuger
marks. Opening the drawer he found
the same on the articles in it, and on a
pocket book. An examination revealed
the same on the contents of the bag.
! This proved clearly that the mason with
his wet bands had opened the drawer
aud searched the bag. which contained
no money, apd then closed the drawer
without once thinking any one would
know it. The thin whitening which
happened to be on his hands did not
show at first, and probably he had no
idea that twelve hours drying would
reveal his weakness Beware of evil
thoughts aud deeds They will leave
their finger marks which will one day
be revealed. They may be almost il
not quite invisible at first. But even
if they should not be seen during any
of your days on earth, yet there is a
day coming in which all will be made
manifest.

A Perfect Cure.


he was permanently cured of fits. He
was riding in the mining districts OF
Nevada-one ofthose mushroom growths
common in the territories-when night
came upon him. Tired and hungry,
he drew up at greasy, dirty shanty
which was called tavern, and sought
accommodations. He thus details his
nights experience:
The landlord could only give me
room with bedfellow.

opened a suore that seemed like cross
between filing saw and saving board,
and my feelings at once became mali
cious toward him.

and still the snore continued. The moon
had now risen, making every object in
the room visible.

ing the shutting off of young man
named Rufus Ripley, who held cler-
ical position in Wall street bank, and
who seems to have destroyed himself In
the best possible manner. He was a
handsome fellow, bat he suffered with
neuralgic pains, and worried somewhat
over the death of his father. On Fri
day, he left his desk in the Bank of
New York, walked up stairs and fired
