PANAMISr.-The San Francisco Alta
advises people to make haste slowly
about going to Panamint. The Alta
concludes its article by saying:
Panamint is fifty miles east of the
summit of the Sierra Nevada. two humid
red miles from Wilmington, the nearest
the Yessei q tie sea, n ne midsf e q
desert, with very hot Summer climate,
and with little wood or water in the vi
cinity. The expenses of living must be
great there, and the mines must be rich
to pay people for living in the midst OF
| such desolation. The greater the ex-
element, the greater the proportion Of
those who will lose money in it.

IMrRovING.-Judge Will Campbell is
slowly improving. He has had close

enough to entertain all his friends who

many days.-[G. H. News, 10.

The CAusE.-The Sacramento Record
says that the cause Of the defeat of the
Republican party has been its blind as
saults on the railroad interests, and this
is the way it figures it ont: First, it
says. the leaders Of the party assert that
the change was caused by the hard times
and dullness OF trade, and that always
makes the people impatient aud apt to
look upon the administration as the
cause of the dizziness, either directly or
by neglecting to provide against it. The
Sacramento Record then says that the
depression in business was caused by the
crusade against the railroads. Conse-
quently the defeat of the Republican
party is the logical conclusion Of the un-
hallowed assault upon that sacred inst.
tuition, the railroads. So the best thing
that party can do in order to reinstatt
itself, will be to rush into the arms o.
Stanford, Huntington & Co.. and ther
they will be happy even if they are moi
virtuous.

the different stories she set afioat regarding
herself would require too much space: in
fact the whole of the Times could be easifv

Something New and Valuable
for the Good Housewife.
Mr.. q. @. Craft Is introduc-
ing to the people Of this ceun-
ty a novel and usefef little
steam cooking arrangement to
be used on an ordinary cooking
.stove+ 1t consists Of three
drawers, one ranged above the

ing water. The steam is con
municated by means of valves
to the contents of the drawers
which are designed to hold
fruits, vegetables, meats, pud-
dings or whatever It may be
desired to prepare Tor the ia
BILE.
The advantages OF this little
machine are many, and among
hem not the least Is :he
healthiulness of the articles
cooked in it, as we'll as the
cleanliness and the freedom of
the kitchen from steam and
disagreable oders Of cooking.
One, or half a dozen articles
may be prepared at once; the
cooking is done thoroughly in
one third Tess time than by the
ordinary method without pos
siblity Of burning or s~corchIng;
1t occupies no more rbom on
The stove than would one ordi
nary pot. Il is perfectly sim

every woman will wish to be
assured ot-lbere e DO more
danger of its explosion, than.
there is of the explosion of
her tea kettle. A. is q really
useful article, and will prove a
great labor,saver TO every wo-
man who gets one. Mr.. Craft
is at the McVey House, will
remain a short time, and will
take pleasure III showing the
cooker 10 the ladies who wish

But suddenly. sweet and low.
He said. with the voice Of a dreamer,
Don't let the woman 90"
And then, with his smile 50 royal,
SO sweet with pity and pain,
He called her to the study.
Out Of the mcrCilcSs rain.
''Sit down, my friend;' and lac gave Ecr
The best chair in the place;
And / saw quick blush brighten
Her haggard and liStless face.
And then in tones like music,
lie sounded her frozen heart,
Till the thrill of lender question
Sundcrcd its ice apart;
And tears and sobs and passion
Came thick as the midnight rain:
And She told such a piiiful story
Ny own heart thIobbed with pain
''You see" said Philip, softly,
''SLc is greater than you or |;
She has struggled and conquered where we,

Would maybe sink down and die;
She has fought in the dark with demons,
With evil on every side;
And Satan hath tried to strip her
Even of her wOmanly pride.
Love, let us he very lender;
The lOwliest soul may he

That only God can see"
So the woman left our study
With the face Of an angel Of light;
And she is my noble pattern
