The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1875-10-29

On the whole, we regard it as fortunate
that the Indians were so outrageously
exorbitant in their demands; for if they
had come anywhere within the neighbor-
hood of the Commissioners offer we
fear the barter would have been made,
and at least 50, 900, 900 in money, If not
more, would have been thrown away, in
addition To the enormous expense already
incurred for exploring. Prof. 'Jenney's
mature Judgment, after patient and
laborious exploration of the territory, If,
that the Black Hills are not worth more
than s5OO,OO0 for purchase outright.
That is, IN individual or company deslr-
ing exclusive privileges for mining might
possibly make it pay after purchasing al
that rate. The Government Commits
sioners offered twelve times that amount
simply as an inducement for the Indians
to move O little further back into coun
try much better suited to their purposes

A 0Ieer Railroad.

There has just been completed one of
the most crooked and costly railroads in
the United States. 1t is called the Tahoe
and Carson Narrow Gauge. The road
bed runs along the lake for about O
mile, until it reaches huge gorge in the
mountains, up this dark and uninviting
canon, through long cuts in the solid
granite, over high trestles runs the track
until after attaining an altitude of some
thousand feet it reaches the summit of a
giant mountain. To most civil engineers
this peak would be an obstacle unim-
passable not so with Mr.. Anderson, the
company's very skillful surveyor. The
summit of that peak had to be reached,
and if the grade was too heavy up an
angle of less than As degrees, there was
still another way to attain the summit,
and that was a zig-zag road in the shape
of the letter u, piled one on another
across the face of the old bald mountain,
and then instead of turning a curve,
rams its catcher into corner of the z,
and backing out and up the grade, con-
tinues in that manner until the summit
is reached, distance of seven and half
miles from Flenbpook. From there
across fertile little valley which crowns
the summit, the road runs past Spooner's
Station, relic of the ante-railroad days
situated on the old Placerville freight
road to Sacramento. Through "a tunnel
480 feet long pushes the road until a
short distance beyond it reaches the
fiume station.-Sdn Francisco Ledger.

Black Hills Romanciny.

As an Eldorado the Black Hills coun-
try has not proved n success. The only
paying thing about it, as near as we can
discover, is sthe price which the Indians
had the effrontery to demand for ces-
sion of their rights. There was one
other feature which came very near being
fabulous, and that was the price which
the Government Commissioners offered
them. The Indians wanted $40, 900, 600,
and the Commissioners offered $1,000
900 one was little more out of the way
than the other, but not much. The gov
eminent might just about as reasonably
pay the Indians S70,000,0 900 for the ces-
sion of exclusive privileges granted by
the government, of no value to them, in
exchange for other exclusive privileges,
as to pay $4,000, 900 for this exchange

To stop Bleeding at the Nose.

1t is worth while to know how to stop
bleeding from the nose when it be-
comes excessive. If the finger is pressed
firmly upon the little artery that sup
plies the blood TO the side of the face
affected, the result is accomplished. The
two small arteries branching up from the
main arteries on each side of the neck,
and passing over the outside of the jaw
bone, supply the face with blood. If
the nose bleeds from the right nostril,
for example, pass the finger along the
edge of the right jaw till the beating of
the artery is felt Press hard upon it,
and the bleeding will cease. Continue
the pressure five minutes, until the rup-
tured vessels in the nose have time to
contract.

COURTNEY, the amateur champion oars
man of New York, who has steadily gone
to the front in a long series of we'll
earned victories, outdid himself and
everybody else, amateur or professional,
the other day, in a regatta on Cayuga
Lake, by rowing two miles, including
one turn, in thirteen minutes and four
teen seconds, the quickest time for the
distance on record, and beating double

The Duration Of Life.

The following facts on the duration OF
life appear in the Deutsche Vorsicht,ngS
Zeitung: "ID ancient Rome, during the
period between the years 200 and 300
A. D., the average duration of life
among the upper classes was 80 years.
In the present century among the same
classes of people, it amounts to 90 years.
In the sixteenth century the mean dura-
ton of life in Geneva was y. q years ::
between 1914 and 1888 it was 40. IS
years; and at the present time as many
people live to 70 years of age as 300
years ago lived to the age of A."

A PIECE of property near Bloomington,

A PIECE of property near Bloomington,
ILL.,, was transmitted in a peculiar way by
a recent decision of Judge Upton. A
lady, dying, left it to her daughter; the
father married again, and on June 2,
1874. the girl died; on June 20, 1874, a
son was born to the father by his second
wife. The question was whether the
girls inheritance reverted wholly to her
father, or whether, under the statute, the
half-brother was entitled to the estate.
1t was decided that the half-brother par
took of the inheritance, even though
eighteen days elapsed between the time
of the girls death and his birth.

The Amen Corner.

We often hear Of The omca corner
Of a church, where the most pious
part OF the congregation sit and in
dalge in religious applause. Ask
nlne tcnths ofihe people, or indeed,
any well informed scholars, as to
how, or uhcn these words
originated, and you will probably
bc told that 1t is modern slang
phrase, which has come into use H.
onr own wicked aad soothing times;
but The fact j., the phrase Is very
ancient. \ friend has shown Us a
book printed ia l74l, London, ard
the ttlc page informs as that it was

This book, Thoughts on Religion

IN the back part OF the book.
Now, the fact Thai Mr. Wares place
of business, devoted to pioUs uses,
was, one hundred and thirty four
years ago, known as "Amcn Cor

ihat the phrase is tot a modern

never given them credit.

IN our last issue, we gave eN-
presslon to our fears that the clt-
zens Of Osccola were Indifferent, or
rather, not manifcsting the interest
IN the election of municipal officers
for the proposed incorporation,
which would come off to day, (and
which is now taking place. that
the Importance OF the OCCASION de-
served. Since that time we have
had all fear and doubt on that sub
icct removed. All that was neces-
sary was an initiato,y, or, starting
point; and that was furnished last
Thursday night. A call was made
tor meeting of the citizens Of the
town to assemble Wednesday night,
but owing to pleasure exclusion
which had been set for that even
ing, and the consequent absence
of Il large number of the legal vot
crs, the meeting was postponed.
The next evening, Thursday, quite
II respectable number of the citizens
assembled at the place designated
for the evening before, and proceed
ed TO nominate candidates aud
form such ticket as they could
recommend for the suffrage OF the
people butas Is generally the case
in mass meetings, conventions or
nsscmblages Of men, who meet Tor
the purpose of selecting candidates
aud forming tickets, there were in
this. when nomination was made
and q vote taken, few who were
IN the minority, and who, because
of the defeat OF their favortes, bolt
cd, and that too, after taking an
active ard prominent part through
ont the chtir5 proceeding OF the
evening, and aftcrward broke faith
by manipulating and planning an
other meeting, and getting up what
they termed an opposition ticket.
la consequence of these proceed
inss is ii that we say that all our
doubts and fears on the subject ol
interest IN the election have van
,sh. We now say the interest is
imn.cnse, PRODlGlOCS.
Notwithstanding the marked IN
tercst thus manifested, we will WA
ger nicklc, that the result of the
election will prove the fulilIiy OF
