leave Europe literally out in the cold,
and make frozen waste of what a.e
now its most genial regions.
European mathematicans have gone
into elaborate calculations, and have ex-
hausted figures in the immensity of their
results, to show the measure of warmth
transported from the tropics by the Gulf
Stream and distributed over northern
Europe. To present a more definite
idea than the row of tlUenty-0Re figures
actually set free in winters day by the
Gulf Stream is enough to warm up
the whole column OF atmosphere resting
on France and the British Isles from the
freezing point to summer heat" What
horrible larceny it would be to steal
from Northern Europe such a>source OF
warmth as thisl BY thus reducing that
continent to its nominal climatic condi-
tion as dependent on latitude, France
and Austria would have the climate of
Canada and Hudson's Bay, England
Erin" would become merely a
stranded iceberg. From this
condition as a part of the frozen zone,
Northern Europe is protected merely
by the influence OF that "mysterious
river in the sea-" known as the Gulf
Stream,-a river three thousand times
larger than the Mississippi, bearing on
its bosom and in its depths the warmth
of the tropics to distribute over the
plains of Northern Europe, thereby con-
verting even the scandinavian high
| lands into temperate zone.
And it is this grand almoner of the
globe that Europe now begins to fear
will be taken from her, should America
proceed to cut channel connecting the
TWO oceans across the American 18TH
mus, thereby permitting the westward
flow OF the warm waters of the Atlantic
to pass directly onward into the Pacific,
and waste their sweetness on its desert
air.
And now finally comes the last news
from the Arctic regions announcing the
return of the British exploring ships
that went forth determined to reach the
Pole. But they failed of success in that.
though advancing to within only four
hundred miles of that great objective
point of all polar discovery. The icy
problem remains still unsolyed, as Il
standing temptation Tor future adven
ture, however hopeless of any valuable
results.

Not word came in reply.

"Um-'m-'m," was all that escaped

A Swindled Frenchman,

Z A French sportsman makes laugh
able complaint in the columns of Paris
paper. Mr.. Nathaniel WInkle, notwith-
standing his reputation as sportsman,
could not help wondering "what the
dogs were about" on one memorable oc-
casion. The French sportsman above
mentioned had better grounds for sur
prise at the conduct OF the be0a chien
AndLdiS, which he purchased from a
naive of pei tidious Albion. The animal
certainly manifested some symptoms OF
joy on the first day his new master
shouldered his gun and prepared for la
CkdSSe, "but," says the sportsman, 81
find IL impossible to get ham out of the
house all the same"
He immediately sent dispatch to
Scotland to the person from whom he
had purchased The dog, mentioning the
circumstance, and received in due
course the telegraphlc answer: "For-
got to tell you that the dog, having been
born in Scotland, only follows master
in the national costume. Dress yourself
as Highlander, and he will follow you
with alacrity." The sportsman regard
ed the necessity OF dressing himself up
for his dog as q little onerous, but finally
submitted, and figured as Il Highlander.
In that picturesque costume he was
saluted by the noble dog with great
demonstrations Of joy and the most live
ly gambols.
The sportsman, scarcely less delight
ed, advanced q Ia CbdSSe, gun in hand.
The dog followed nln for lew minutes,
bat suddenly lett him and returned TO
the house, from which he refused 10 be
allured. A new dispatch was sent to
the former owner; the reply came:
"Forgot TO tell you that it is u sheep
dog, accustomed to look alter focks in
Sc0tland; take a hundred or two sheep
with you, and ali will go WE'LL"
The unlucky French sportsman con-
sidered it impossible to go shooting in
his woods i'll company with flock OF
sheep, and SO he writes to his paper to
say that he thinks he has been swindled.

"SToP HER."
A Miners Terrible Fail Down a Three Hundred
Foot Shaft,

Foot Shaft.
A dreadful accident occurred at the
Trojan Mine to-day AZ II O'clock, where
by Frederick Brown, miner, lost his
life. For some days past the north COM
partment of the shaft, which is three
hundred feet deep, has been used to
lower and raise the men and rock, q
bucket instead oil cage being employed.
The cage in the south compartment was
at noon level with the surface and the
iron shaft upon which the cable wheels
revolye was unclutched upon the south
side, SO that the cage was upheld merely
by the catches. Brown, big, bury te' =
low of forty, and weighing close up n
two hundred pounds, sprang upon the
cage with the cry OF "All abOardV Sey.
oral other miners were about to step on
when a shout from the engineer stopped
them. 1t was LOO late for poor Brown,
however. The attendant thinking
everything correct, pulled back the
lever and the cage bogan to descend.
Brown was miner enough to know by
the motion that all was not right, ana
when about twenty feet down cried out,
"Stop her!" They were the last words
of his ever heard by human ears, for the
reel, perfectly free from control, began
TO revolve like lightning, and the cage
went whZzing down the shaft like a
stone thrown into well. Four men
threw themselves against the brake and
another flung handluls OF rosin upon The
reel, that the brake might get hold. Ii
was useless. The momentum was SO
terrific that nothing could do any good.
When the end OF the cable was reached
it snapped Oft like Bit OF twiBe, and the
whole i've hundred feet Of iron rope, four
inches broad, tell down upon the
cage and the unfortunate miner. Az
News reporter arrived upon the scene
two men VINO had gone down the nortn
compartment in a bucket to recover the
body OF their iellow-miheF were ascend
ing. The bucket came up. Poor Brown
lay in it, limp, dead mass. Willing
hands were ready to lift him out ana
lay him upon a table of rough boards
which had been hastily brought. The
back of the man was broken and his
nose was split wide open. The men
who brought MIN up stated to the report
er that they found Brown entangled in
the coils OF the cable, and could only gel
out his body by breaking through the
walls which separate the COM allmc nts
of the shaft. His pulse was still beating
feebly when the surlace was reached.
DR.. Mayer was in attendance, but When
Brown Was laid upon the boards life
had departed. He was single man,
and had the reputation Of being kind
hearted and straightforward. Coroner
Hodges will hold an inquest. Some
about the hoisting-works expressed
surprise that the "saletIes" on
the cage did not prevent il from
descending. Had the cable broken
they would have done SO. Notwith-
standing the rapid fall, there was suti-
cient resistance to keep the clutches
from springing out.-LGold Hill (Ney.

THE German language, it seems, is not
equal to the emergency of telling what
a Chinaman says. The Volksfreund this
morning in the account Of the shooting
af.ray yesterday allows George Samm

own language. The VolksGreund is,
however, good paper, and will give
The news if it has to employ German,

We are running the Wheeler & Wilson Sew
ing Machine No. 6, by steam power, at o speed
of 700 stitches per minute on Ladies' and
Misses Fine Shoe Uppers, and find it superior
to any other machine in the following par
ticulars:
1t will close seams with heavy silk in leather
tighter, without puckering, than any machine
we know. 1t will close leather seams with
Marshall's Cabled Thread at above speed equal
to the Howe Cylinder Machine.
1t runs faster and makes more regular
stitch on fine leather than any machine we
have ever used.
We believe it will prove very durable ma
