another to the long list of shipwrecks on the

by those who are fitting across the sea. The
scene of the disaster is not far from the lacality
made sadly memorable by the wrecking of the
Atlantic, the City Of Washington having

That Favorite Home Remedy,

probably has wider and better reputation Than any
other proprietary medicine OF the present day. At
this period there are but few unscqnanied with the
merits Of the PAIN KILLER but. while some extoI it
as lIRIment, they know but little Of its mower in
easing pain when taken Internally while others use
1t internally with great success, but are equally ig
norant OF its healing virtues when applied externally
We therefore wish. TO say to ALL that il is equally
successful. whether used internally ex Iernaly II

medicine to know that it is used in all parts of
the world, and that its sale is constantly increasing

:, A duel was fought on Tuesday between Col.
Pcdyuae, and ex-Judge VIM. NJ. Cooley. a
prominent member OF the New Orleans Bar
The weapons were double barrelled shot guns
loaded with ball-distance forty yards. On
the second fire Judge Cooley was shot through
the heart and died in few minutes. The
quarrel grew out of an article published in the
fc1yune commencing on Judge Cooley
course as counsel for Judge Hawkins in libel
suit against that paper. This provoked a
retort from the lawyer, and therefore he was
challenged by the editor.

The LAVA Reds.

Tie hundred odd square miles of Territory
in Northern California, known as the Lava
Beds, in which the the Modoc Indians have
entrenchcd themselves, is thus described by
writer in an Oregon paper: 'lfyou can
imagine n smooth, solid sheet ofgranite ten
miles square and 500 feet thick, covering
resistless mines of empower scattered at
irregular intervals under it; that these mines
are exploded simultaneously, rendering the
whole field into rectangular masses from the
size of a match box To that of Il church, heap
ing these masses high in some places and
leaving deep chasms in others. Following
the explosion, the whole thing is placed in
one of Nulcan's crucibles and heated up to
point when the whole begins to fuse and run
together, and then suffered to cool. The
roughness of the upper surface remains as
the explosion left it, while all below is honey
combed by tho cracks and crevices caused by
the cooling of the melted rock From the
top of one of these stone pyramids an Indian
can shoot q man without even exposing a
square inch of himself He can, with due
haste, load and shoot IL common muZZle- load
ing rifle ten times before man can scramble
over the rocks and chasms between the slain
and the slayer If at this terrible expense of
life force dislodge him from his cove, he
has only to drop into and follow some subter-
reanean passage with which he is familiar to
gain another ambush, from whence it will
cost ten more lives to dislodge him; and SO
