IHs Colorado stock war between cattle
fanehers and sheep herders. which here
toiore has ragged only in the southern
portion Of the Territory, has finally
moved up to within short distance Of
OF Denver. The News tells Of an affair
that occurred few miles from that city,
short time ago, where German with a
herd of four thousand sheep found a
score of armed men occupied, in the mid
die of the night, pouring volleys of bull
let's into his corral. He attempted to
stop the performance, but was driven
into his shanty, and in the morning
found nearly two hundred sheep dead.
These affairs are becoming ruinious, in
the extreme, to the interests Of Colorado
sheep and cattle raisers, but every effort
thus far made to end that has proved I'm.
awaiting.

PIocHEEs IN THE SAX JUAN Country ~
We saw yesterday letter. from Robert S.
Wright to John G. Lynch and Joseph
Upton, from which We gather some items
of much general interest. These letters
are dated at TERRA Amarillo, N. NJ,
Dec. 20. With Wright were Geo. H.
Miller, Geo. Mcclure and Craven Lee
They arrived the day before, after a
tedious trip Of fifty days from Phoebe.
The Navahoe trail, says Wright, will not
do, and he wishes he had gone by Stones
Ferry and kept On to the head of the
San Jnan. They Travelled through some
pretty basins, covered with bunch grass
and timber, after leaving the San Juan.
They washed several pans and found
gold in all of them, but not enough to
pay. They travelled by the old map,
which is not correct, and SO had but little
time to prospect. They struck the Ami
mas river about Is miles below old AMI
mas City. They found about ten men
working in these mines and about twenty
building cabins on the river below. It
began to snow on the second day after
they got to the Animas, and was still
showing. Pat Quinlan and all other
Piochers were at TERRA Amarillo. The
party will remain in camp until Spring.
Prospectors were coming in from all
directions. and had been caught by the
snow. The laws there give prospectors
1900 feet for discovery claim in quartz
and twenty acres to the man in placer
mines, and whoever is located, whether
there or not, has valid claim.

A MAN killed IN THE RAYMOND Il ELY
MISE.-About 9 o'clock yesterday morn
ing an accident occurred in the Raymond
Il Ely mine which resulted in the death
Of John Snyder. Deceased was working
in the 1,000-foot level. and piece Of

struck the unfortunate man and gave
him sush blow that he died soon after.
The injured man was conveyed to the
County Hospital, but just in front of the
building he breathed his last. The Cor.

The Wheat Prospect,

All statistical information on the
subject of the wheat prospect of the
world point to the important fact that
the United States is the only
country able to supply the unprece-
dented demand for wheat this year in
nearly all European countries. The re.
turns of the imports OF Great Britain to
September 30th show that the gross
value OF the imports Of wheat for nine
months is about 900, 900, 900, of which
the United States supplied $42, 900, 600
worth. The proportion of wheat from
Russia has fallen from $4,000, 600 to
1000, 900 hundred weights, as compared
with that of 1872, while that received
from the United States has increased
from 5000, 900 to 13,000, 900 hundred
weights. Wheat is usuallys. exported
from the north of France, but this year
it will have to be imported, and the I'M
portations of the south of France will
be largely increased. Germany, Hun
gary and Southern Russia are also de-
ficient in their crops; and that Euro
pean dealers have accepted the returns
as thoroughly reliable, may be judged
from the fact that their exports from
New York alone, during the fourteen
days ending October 9th, were 3, sos, 1863
bushels, an amount unparalleled in the
history of that port. On the other
hand, the receipts of wheat at Mil
waukee and Chicago have been largely
increased, the receipts at the former
place of the present crop being $685.
no bushels, against 5,044, SO5 bushels
for the same period in 1872.

Female Soldier.

The military annals Of most European
countries, says the London Echo, re-
cord a few instances of women who,
having succeeded in entering the ranks
of the army, have highly distinguished
themselves in the apparently incon-
gruous profession of arms. Such fact
has, however, according to the Opinione,
been hitherto unprecedented in the
italian Army. 1t was discovered, how
ever, the other day, that a young soldier
named Marcotti, who was to receive his
discharge on the 1st of this month,
having enlisted in 1856, is one of these
heroines. Julia Marcotti, the Amazon
in question, belonged to a numerous
and poor family, living atSan Ambrozio,
near Turin, and worked in the mines of
Upper Piedmont, to which latter cir
cumstance her extraordinary physical
strength may, probably, be attributed.
She enlisted in 1866, at the time when
Italy was about to engage in the strug.
gle with Austria, her motive being to
save her brother, who was married and
hal six children, from being obliged
to serve. Not only did Julia perform
all soldiers duties as we'll as her COM
rades, but she fought in the first rank
at the battle of Custozza, and obtained
the medal of military valor. On hear
ing of the case, King Victor Emmanuel
sent for the woman, bestowed upon her
the Cross of the Order of the Crown,
and desired that she should be sent
home with pension of 800 lire.

Making Sugar.

An exchange says that it is reported
in England that a French firm has dis
cover ed method of making artificial
sugar from materials so cheap that it
can be sold at farthine pound. Con-
cerning which the Manufacturer and
Builder says: "When we consider that
sawdust is cheap and rich in Ignite,
which by chemical treatment with
mineral acids may be changed into
grape sugar, we should not at all be

out to be true, and that sawdust is the
from which this cheap sugar is
obtained. Changing old linen rags into
sugar is well. known chemical expert
ment. Such rags are almost pure lig-
mite, while sawdust also consists Of lig.
mite, however, with some other ingre-
dients, easily removed. From rags to

80 produced, however, is grape, not
cane sugar, and has only half the
sweetening power of the latter.

The Only Child Saved.

A Paris correspondent speaking of
the Vile du Havre disaster, says "Of
the fourteen young children on board,
only one was saved. As she came to
the surface she instinctively caught at
the first object floating past, and" said
to lady who hung to the other side,
1 can't die, so! A willful, petted
child, she even now struggled against
the general fate. Her own story Of the
shipwreck is shorter than many, but
full of pathos: 'There was great
crash, and they call to come on the
other side; then was in the water -
she does not remember having gone
down-'and clung to pair of steps,
| was getting tired, very tired, but
Miss - told me to hold on, and 1
held on /; then boat came and took us
off. don't remember going on board
the big ship, but they gave me some
brandy; then I was dreadfully sick,
and they took offall my clothes and put
me to bed She hugs her doll, and
looks up with her large, blue eyes,
which never until now saddened and
remembers and seems to mourn over
the fate of kitten which foated past
and she wished she could have saved"

A Boston Notion.

Boston has taken progressive ster
in engrafting industrial education, up
on her public school system. One OF
the oldest and largest girls schools in
the city-the Winthrop-has been made
the locale of an experiment which
promises to be vast public benefit.
In several of the girls grammar schools
sewing has been taught in partial sort
of way for several years, but the Win
throp School is the first where in all
the classes the systematic teaching of
the art to sew has been undertaken.
This has been going on there since Oc-
tober l, under the supervision of regu-
lar sewing teacher, whose entire time is
taken up in instructing q thousand
children, who are subdivided into eight
cen classes and. whose methods of
study and progress are thus described
by the Daily advertiser
"The children are requested to bring
some article from home to work on in
school, such as towel, handkerchief,
napkin, or some simple article of ap-
parel, thus combining utility with their
study. 1t was at first thought that the
two hours could not be we'll spared from
the regular studies, but this result
shows that the children have their les
sons even better than before, the occu-
patton of their hands giving needed
rest to their minds. But as only their
hands are occupied in their work, the
teacher fills the time by reading aloud
to the children something valuable and
instructive, and at the same time enter
tanning. In the four upper classes,
besides simple sewing, cutting and fit
ting are taught, there being in the ex-
hibition hall table and Implements
for the purpose. In this remarkable
progress has been made. The patterns
are given from designs on the black
board. In this the use of the study OF
drawing, as pursued in the Boston
public schools, receives practical ap-
for the pupils would be hard
ly ably to oreceive their instructions in
cutting were it not for their knowledge
of industrial drawing. The patterns
are drawn from dictation and geometri-
cal drawing. The pupils thus not only
receive beneftfrom an industrial stand
point, but their perception is quickened
and an impetus is given to other studies,
for, as the teacher says, 1t is practi-
cal arithmetic and geometry to them.
A number of the girls in the upper
classes have already become accom-
plished cutters and filters, and are of
much assistance in teaching the others.
One of the misses, bright and modest
young girl, had on dress
which she had cut and made herself in
he school, the first instance of the
lind. The dress fitted perfectly, and
yave evidence of neat and careful work.
She was an object of much attention
rom visitors present. Mr.. Swan, the
master, hopes before long to have all
he girls of his upper classes thus at
ired in dresses of their own making"

A Singular Invention.

A bee raiser has patented an inven-
tion for the protection of bees from
the attacks of the honey moth, which
enters the hives at night and rifles the
stores. The idea arose out of his fa-
miliarity with the daily routine not
of bees only, but of hens.
Hens, he observed, retire to rest
early bees seek repose earlier still no
sooner are they sunk in slumber than
the moth steals into their abode and
devours the produce of their toll. He
has now built stand of hives with
henhouse above it. The bees first
betake themselves to their dwelling and
and settle themselves for the night.
The hens then come home to roost on
their porch, and as they take their
places upon it their weight, sets some
simple mechanism to work, which at
once shuts down the doors of all the
hives. When the day dawns, however,
the hens leave their roost, and the
removal of their weight from the
perch raises the hive-doors and gives
egress to the bees in time for their
work.

Determined.

Here is a story of curious attempt
at suicide as told by the Baltimore Sun.
Harry Harden had just quarreled with
her sweetheart, and was infamed with
jealousy, so she resolved to make a
sacrifice of herself on the altar of love.
She set fire to her clothing, but just as
she was getting pretty well enveloped
in flames, and began to experience what
a dreadful torture it was to burn alive,
she suddenly changed her mind and
cried out Justify for help. She was

had been much injured.

Farewell to the Old Year."

Tho old year said to me, as he lay dying,
Why dost thou look upon my face with sigh
ing
gtsh of happy tears prevented my replying.
Oh year! blest year! oh, ever can another
Lead me like thee as gently as mother,
Kindly reprove me, like an elder brother2
Untried the future years are slowly creeping,
Oh, year of years my life was in thy keeping.
And thus stand beside thy couch with weep
ing.
Loved year! lost year! thy latest breath is
iieeting,
A stranger comes, with slow and solemn greet
ing
Oh, speak to me once more and bless our
meeting
True friend, we part Though many men will
blame thee,
Aud with blind hearts will thanklessly defame
thee.
AZ Gods eternal angel still claim thee. Fare
well!
