Says Mary Kyle Dallas: Dress,
dress, dressl II Is the banc Of womanhood
from the cradle to ID grave, and has
been ever since Eve made an overskirt for
herself out Of fig leaves. Everything
we do is mixed up with toilet some
now. When we are christened our
christening robe Is the first thought.
When we are taken TO church. we arc
beribboned and belaced TO make mp
pearance there: and are told we cannot
possibly go in those shabby old shoes,
bu. must wear the nico Sunday ones.
When we are married, our costume is
the topic which all discuss, and white
satin and pearls are more important by
far than our emotions. And when the
mo, terrible grief Of life falls upon us,
anxious voices beg us to declare in favor
Of bias folds Of Grape and q vail with a
hem half a yard wide; or ask us softly
whether VIC are going to deeply,
alluding Of course to our black clothes.
Yes, and when We are dead ourselves, ii
Is still our dress that must he thought OF
though at Last We are relieved Of dress
ing ourselves. Some witty French
writer has declared that women will in

Day OF Judgment, or refuse to intend at

II is proposed TO sink the incline 800

The Mystery Solved.


Henry Holbrook, a young merchant
having got through work earlier the;
usual, took the opportunity TO pay I
visit TO Mmira Somers, to whom he hat
recently engaged himself, and was soor
to be married.
To his chagrin he found Almira un,
usually silent and constrained in her
manners. She kept her mouth firmly
closed, and spoke only in monosylla-
blcs, No that Henry was obliged TO con
verse chiefly with her mother. After
sitting u while, and struggling eifectu-
ally to conceal the modification he
felt, it.having been his expectation to
pass a pleasant evening, he arose and
bid them good night.
Mrs. Somers, who was q blunt wo-
man. and who was not ovcr-refincd. fol-
lowed him TO the door. and as he was
about to bid her good night, she said.
''You must excus Almira's not saying
much tonight. You see she didn't cx-
pcct anybody in tonight, and so she
had some onions for supper. She was
dreadful afmid you would find it out,
and that's the reason she kept her
mouth shut"
Henry felt relieved at once. and we
are happy to add. he found Alnira SO
cii enough when no next visited her.

Eureka Itsms.
From III. Seminal. luns "a

NsS-s ~ o~atAhsis suhs ~o
The coal receipts for the twenty eight
days ending last evening. which includes
tho last day Of the past month. have
boen unusually large. at least this has
been the case at tho Richmond, which,
Notwithstanding the freedom with which
It has been furnished OF late, has mag
unanimously refraincd from putting tho
price down to tho old standard Of 80
cents per bushel. What tho price will
be for the ensuing month we, Of course,
have no definite means of knowing. but
presume Il will be regulated the Same as
arc the rates Of all other commodities
by supply and demand. There have
been received ut the Richmond. as we
said, for the four weeks ending last
night, 1Gi, 578 bushels; Eureka Consol-
dated, lis, 900; Ruby Consolidated. 49,
1876; Hoosac, 80, i7S; In all, $3.50, 792
bushels. These figures indicate an in
crease OF 1884 bushels over and
above the amount received for the month
OF May. lacking day.
The bullion product for. tho month
ending next Tuesday night, will also be
found on comparison to DO much in ex-
cess Of that given In our last months
report. The following are the returns
for the month: Richmond. two fur
naces thirty days and one fifteen days,
l,2i9, ITO pounds Of crude bullion; Eu-
reka Consolidated. two furnaces thirty
dnys. 7S9, go pounds; Ruby Con-, n
furnace thirty days and one fourte, ndays,
SOC, 900; in all, 2,91S,G $50 pounds
of crude bullion. or a tribe over l,459
tons. This showing gives an excess Of
ESQ, $40 pounds, or nearly 34OH tons
over tho product reported for May.
there were remaining unshipped, at the
commencement Of the month, from last
month, l.lG6, 0lG pounds, which, added
10 this months product, gives n grand
total Of 4,OSi,C6G pounds, or nearly
2,042L tons. What. we wonder, will
tho skeptical quidnuncs Of this and
other places say when thoy cast their
eyes ON these figures, for tho correctness
of which we readily youch. Probably
they will, after awhile, como to think
that Eureka is n place good enough for
one to reside in. even though II is in an
out-of-thc-way s~agebrush place.
The bullion shipments, which W have
only computed for twenty-seyen days up
to last night, have been very large. The
amount ON hand from last month I'M
shipped. was l,1GG,01 pounds. This
we bring forward and include with the
shipments OF the current month. The
Richmond shipments were 9i2, $40
pounds; Eureka Consolidated. S33,075
pounds; Ruby Consolidated, 100000
pounds; Hoosac, $50, 900 pounds crude
bullion; in all. 2,256, 0i7 pounds, show
ing nm increase over the mount ship
ped last month Of 1,1si,2S3 pounds.
Taking 2.25G,0i7 pounds, the ship
ments for June, up to last evening, from
4.0si. iG6 pounds, which constitutes the
June product. together with the balance
ON hand from May at the opening Of
this month. will leave u balance Of l.
lSi, 2s3 pounds, which goes forward to
the next proximo account.

Knife Eater.


An American sailor died recently in
Paris, who swallowed and digested
knives for his amusement. The Paris
Steele says: When tho body was opened
there was found In Il fourteen knives,
all corroded and partly dissolved. On
one Of them, however, the name Of the
maker might still be distinguished; q
copper button and part VI q silver set
ting which had adorned another, were
scarcely touched, but the nails, springs
and horn handles were In u state OF do
composition. Tho final malady and
death hal been caused by the half OF q
knife becoming fixed across the intes-
tines. The stomach itself was not at
all injured. and Cummings, after his
last experiment, had eaten with excel
lent appetite. II therefore appears that
the swallowing and digesting Of knives
did not kill the sailor, but he died be-
cause n Of them got snarlod up In his
intestines. While his death is to be re-
grctted. there IN still consolation in re-
Numbering that he was an American,
IL he was full Of knives, and that his
example was calculated to inspire Paris
ians with envy at tho capabilities Of the
American stomach.

His spirits were 90 light
The little anchor on the the left,
The great one on the right"
Twas supper time, and we sat down.

And looked at me, and smiled,

Upon the stormy foam;
And though thousand leagues away,
Am anchored here at home"
Then giving each kiss, he said,

This little anchor on my left,
This great one on my right"
