about Going West.

In reply to q letter from young
man asking if it would be advisableto
go to Nevada, the Virginia Enterprise
remarks:
"Yesl Come right along! You will
hnd plenty of company in the thous-
ands of hungry men who day after day
till hope deferred makes the heart sick
walk their weary rounds searching in
vain for place within the ranks OF
toilers above mentioned. AS soon as
YOU set your foot on our soil you can
begin to pay prices that will open your
eyes. Board from 81 to $40 per week,
lodging fifty cents night, unless you
are one of those who try to steal sleep
from the sidewalk, when the price
will advance to geo or ten days in
Jail.
"Yesl Come along! You may be
fortunate enough, after staying and
starving few years, to secure place
In some of the mines, where two thou
sand feet below the surface and In
temperature ranging from10Oto l2O..de-
grees Fahrenheit, and where the water
comes Kissing hot from Tartarus, you
can swing the sledge, ply the pick or
trundle a ten of rock. To be sure,
there is some danger in the depths.
The accidents average ono day the
wear round and about one in five fatal,
Sometimes you man be called upon to
perform service where fall will rem
der your body shapeless mass thon-
sand feet below. Ten thousand tons
of rock may tumble down upon you,
and leave not the semblance of huma-
nifty in your manly form; you may
strike water in drift, and your life
less body be found weeks afterwards,
when the pump has again drained the
mine; you man receive q chip, upon
which some friend has written line
to tell you that the shaft is on fire, ana
your communication with the surface
and the loved ones cut of at once ant
forever. All these and q thousand
more things may occur, and for In
curing them you may, when you are
old and experienced, get four dollars

Hotel Rills for the Past.

Plymouth, n. g., Letter TO The Boston All
rertise1.
Several years ago Iarrived at a coun
try hostelry situated in the neighbor'
ing town of Rumney. Staying week
or two, l asked my bill when the time
of my stay was at an end.
"Well, what do you think it is
worthg" said my landlord.
"Oh, I don't know; you keep the
hotel-what is the charge"
"Well-come, let's chalk"
So the bellows was taken from its
nail; and as was then so frequently the
custom, each party chalked what he
thought it worth. Looking at the fig
ures, finally the landlord said:
"Well about 20 cents for meals and
90 cents for lodging"
Wondering, paid him. Next year
happening in the same town, l stopped
at the house of a friend and meeting
my "chalking" landlord of the year
previous, he said:
II did q wrong thing By you last
year. charged you to much. You
see 20 cents ameal amt much, but then
times 90 is 90, for meals, and 30 is 80
and times so is $500 week and
that's an awful sum"

Il Fight With an .Alligater.

From tie QuHmai5 (Gd) Spectator. !
Monday afternoon party of eight
or ten met ut the Okaplico Greek, to
seine the different lakes and "eddies"
along the run of the creek between the
turnpike and the railroad bridges
Nothing unusual transpired on this
occasion until late in the afternoon,
when, in seeing deep lake formed BY
bend in the channel of the stream,
the seine became so heavy and difficult
to drag that it was concluded that it
was hung to root or log on bottom
Lum Deyane, lad 10 years old, went
under for the purpose of disentanglinE
the seine.
Upon reaching bottom, distance OF
some six or seven feet, he found what
he supposed to be n log, and embracing
it started to the surface of the water
With it. His surprise rs well as that
of the party can better be imagined
than expressed when, upon rising, the
supposed log was found to be an alllga
tor. As soon as the waters surface
was reached the infuriateG monster,
taking in the situation at a glance.
made n terrible iunge at Devane, and
striking him in the breast, knocked
him into deep watcr, and, continuing
the attack, caught HIN between hig
vice.liEc jaws around the waist,
Seeing the danger of their comrade
the rest of the party spreng to his
relief. Fortunately for Deyane he was
on the outside and the alligator was,
upon the inside of the seine, which
being strong and firmly held at each
end, somewhat impeded the vicious
reptile in his attack. This, together
with the prompt and fearless action OF
the entire party, who seized his gator
ship by the tail and legs and com
menced to use their knives on him
him diligently, is all that saved the
life of Lum Devane. He was finally
extricated from the jaws OF the mad
dened monster and escaped with q few
painful though not dangerous bruises
and bites.
The alligator was about eight feet
in length, and it was with difficulty
that six or eight strong and courageous
men succeeded, after inserting their
knives In several tender places, il
( bringing him ashore He fought des-
perately as long as life lasted, and in
his dying moments he set up q deal
ening roar almost equal to that CT a
lion.

That the size and distribution OF the
solar Spots have an elecu o-magnetic effect

the occurrence OF storms other than mag
netic storms is now fully known, but obSeT-
yaiions made by Father Secchi during the
years iSti-2 have cast still further light on
this point 10y owing that the size OF the sun
is not always the same, but that IL varies in
such way that when the solar diameter has
