fornia. But Ralston and Sharon owned
half the crushing mills and the railroad
at Virginia City. The Flood and O'Brien
crowd began to build other mills and TO
compete for the greatest mines and the
banks monopolies as well. A struggle
ensued, which resulted in the choosing
OF compromise directory. They had
undoubted bullion wealth. They pro-
posed to Ralston's party to step down
and out and let them become the Bank

fused, whereupon Flood and O'Brien
and the rest Immediately organized the
Bank OF Nevada, with five millions of

Was NAPOLEON n Fatalist,

This is the question raised by writer
III the GALAXY, who tells in affirmation
of it the following remarkable story :
" 1t was III 1896, when the Directors had
named him Commander-in-Chief of the
Army of Italy, and at the same time had
refused or were unable TO supply him
with the means for repairing to head
quarters with the state and dignity be-
fitting his new rank. In this difficulty
the young General raised as large n sum
as he could by means of his own credit
and the kindness of his friends, and as
this was miserably small, he intrusted it
to Junot, a young officer who frequented
gaming tables, and babe him lose it all
or increase it in enormous proportions.
'On your success, he said, depends
the possibility of my accepting this
command, and taking you as my aide-de-
camp According to one account, Jumot
first augmented the amount of his capital
by selling a gold-hilted sword which be-
longed to him, for Bonaparte never
failed to win the love of those who came
in close contact with him. After several
hours play, in which Junot had been
successful beyond his hopes, he repaired
to his chief and handed him his winnings,
which he thought would be more than
sufficient to meet all immediate claims.
The General sent him back once more to
tempt fortune, with an order not to re-
turn till he had doubled the sum or lost
every cent. When Junot appeared again
it was with enough money to enable Ma
poleon to make splendid appearance at
headquarters. The last sum won by
Junot that night has been put at $50, 900,
while the anecdote itself rests on excel
lent authority"

American Tea.

Georgia is going to try her hand once
more at tea growing. Those who have
investigated the subject assure us that
the obstacle to the culture of tea
successfully in the Southern States is
the want of experience, but chiefly OF
cheap labor. The tea tree of China has
been grown by several persons in
Georgia, from the Piedmont region to
the sea-coast. This shrub is hardy
and vigorous evergreen, and thrives as
well with us as it does in China and
Japan. 1t grows from three to five feet
high, neat, compact, laurel-leaved
shrub, with pretty white flowers IN
spring, and is quite ornamental. 1t is
perfectly hardy and will stand any ex-
pos,lre to the climate, and has been test
ed in Athens and many other localities
in Georgia. We are told it would be an
easy matter for any family that has a
home and few feet of ground to pro-
duce their own tea, and little TO sell.
It's general introduction for home use
would most likely lead to its production
for the people to learn before they are
able to manufacture the article as we get
it from China but it is said to be very
good tea, and free from adulteration-can
be made 10y simply picking and drying
the leaves in the same manner that sage
leaves are cured.-NetO York Bulletin.

IT was quite in the eternal fitness of
things that Mrs. Betsy Straw, of Warner,
n. H.. should die of hay fever. The
poor old lady was accused of being 101
years old, and had no means of proving
that she wasn't.

A RAILRoAD WITH MAPLE RAu.s.--A cor
respondent of "a Chicago paper, writing from
McGregor,' iowa, says The Iowa Eastern
railway marrow gauge is extending its road
by means OF maple rail- This extension
commences from the station near Elkadcr,
and will be carried the present season six
miles, to Motion Mills. The maple rails are
three inches thick by five inches high The
ends of the rails are fastened together and lap
one foot and Ealf, and are firmly bolted with
carriage bolts. Nearly one-half the ties are
grooved, in which the rails are placed and
keyed in with pine keys. The rails and
grooves are painted to protect them from the
weather. Two miles are in running order,
and work WELL 1t is estimated that a train
can run safely at speed of twelve miles pei
hour on maple rails. The rails will last al
least four years. and by that time the earnings
OF the road will be sufficient to replace them
with iron rails. The Iowa Eastern have
tested the practicability of these wooden rails
for over two years ON side tracks, and fine
them entirely satisfactory.

THE SPELLING MANrA.--Says writer -
1t is terrible, this mania You are stopped
upon the street and invited to spell peder, or
pedlar, or peddler, or some other word. Your
wife wakes you up in the middle of the night
to spell sarcophagus your children hurry
to the breakfast table to ask you to spell
"corymb, and devote all their spare time
to the dictionary youreldest boy comes homo
late at night in a weeping mood and explains
it thus e went to see Mary (his sweetheart)
this evening she met me at the door with
"spcll crysipelas, Toni" ! spelt it with
two ssi's and no "y,' and she said Sir
our engagement is at an end cannot love
more bad speller" Her father, on being
appealed to, says "Give Tom one more trial.
Spell consanguineous, SIR spelled it with
four MS and twoi's, and he babe me leave the
house and never hope to BIO his son-in-law."--
The spell of weather is bad weather Of spell

A good story is told Of Judge Rice. About
the commencement of the war he made a
speech in North Alabama, in which he said
the Southern soldiers could whip the Yankees
with pop guns. Since the war he chanced to
make another speech at the same place. A
big double jointed fellow was present who
heard and remembered the former speech,
and being in no admirable frame of mind,
concluded to 60 for Sam. Rolling up his
sleeves and popping his fist in his hand. he
propounded the fearful question "Sam
Rice, didn't you make aspeech here in 1871 ~
~ did," said Sam. Didn't you say we
could whip the Yankees with pop guns? p
Certainly / did, but the blamed rascals
wouldn't fight us that way

THEY MAKE OF THN g BOOMERANG"
A traveller tells Us something q that SIN
gular weapon used By the natives Of Australia
the boomerang He SAW them used b
the natives. They ranged from two feet e
thirty-eight inches In length, and were 81
various shapes, All cnrved a little, and look.
ing, as he describes them, something like !
wooden new moon. They are made Of dark,
heavy wood, and weigh from one to three
pounds. IN thickness they vary from half an
inch to an inch, and taper 70 a point at each
end.
One Of the natives picked up the piece Of
wood, poised it an instant. and threw IT, Civ
ing it a rotary motion For the first hundred
feet or more it went straight ahead with a
deep humning sound Then 1t tackled to
the left, and rose slightly, still rotating
rapidly. 1t kept this latter course for a
hundred feet more, perhaps, but soon yeered
to the left again, describing a broader curve,
and moment later fell to the earth six or
eight feet in front Of the thrower having des-
cribed nearly circle in the air.
Another native then took the same boome-
rang and cast it, holding it with the same
grip. 1t took the same course, but made
broader curves and as it came round, the
black caught II handsomely in his right hand
Another native next threw it, and lodged

him. after It had described q circle Of two
