FATE.

Oh, Fate! why deal We so partially
With us creatures here below?
To some you give wealth and happiness,
To others distress and woe.
Why are our minds tOrmentcd
With sorrows of every kind,
And themes which even the talented
Are puzzled their truths to find
Why was not this world an elysium,
Where peace and comfort reigned?
Then our lives would have been poem
For ease and pleasure famed.
l know it is wrong to envy
Those who are happy and strong,
For God is first in his doing,
And knoweth the right and wrong.
When we vieweth this world around us,
How many poor beings we see
Who would think the earth all gladness
If they could only be free.
Some worry themselves for money
And think it would happiness bring,
But when they have gained the victory
IT'S only troublesome thing
Others work for renown and honor
Till their lives are well nigh spent,
And then they reflect and ponder
When their days they cannot extend.
True happiness comes not with money,
For kings on their thrones often mourn
Nor is it the the sister of glory,
For conquerors die sad and forlorn.
We should all take this world very easy,
And subject ourselves to our Fate,
Enjoying each watt of true pleasure,
Although it should come even late.

ten years, and on tapping that ledge
with long and expensive tunnel his
bright hopes are more than realized,
which is due to his energy and perse:

Two men are at work running the
tunnel in on the Seventy-Seven ledge.
This ledge WAS worked in early day,
but having narrowed down to an inch
in width, was abandoned. 1t was re-
located last fall by two or three expe-
rienced quartz miners. On running
the short distance of twenty feet, a
body of good ore from fifteen to eigh-
teen inches was found.

CHINESE CELEBRATION.

Last Tuesday was the grandest GEL
ebration day of the year by the Chi
nese. On that day they must pay
their Priest for his services in procur-
ing tor them homes in the happy land
above. even if they are forced to steal
the money. Their celebrations are
heathenism complete, and must be
witnessed to be thoroughly under
stood, as they cannot be fully de-
scribed. At halfpast nine o'clock on
the cheap big day." four wagons Start
ed from Pom Yam's store, Oh Mont
gomery street, for Centerville.
The first wagon contained the grand
musicians, who played on an instru-
ment resembling the clarionet, GYM
balls, and one or two other instru-
ments, and young Chinaman, who is
nephew of Pom Yam, holding beau
titul and elegantly finished painting,
which is said to have cost $500 in
China, and was to be contested for at
Centerville in an exceedingly strange
manner. A large cylinder, surround
ed by rockets, is placed on level
scope Of ground, and at dusk they are
sent up. 0ne contains ring, to which
is tied small stone. This is the one
they eagerly watch for, and the heath
EN- that delivers it to the Joss gets the
painting. They believe the "compa-
ny"-tribe-that procures it will have
extraordinary good luck in this world
and his claims at the gates of heaven
cannot be denied
In the second wagon was an altar
near which was large vace filled
with burning pnnks, two upright
poles with red and white stri ps of pa
per, several small vaces containing
beautiful boquets, and a roasted pig.
Third wagon-Musicians.
On the fourth wagon, which was
the last, was a resemblance of bo-
quet made with dough balls highly
painted, held by two men. On the
hind seat were three or four men

WOMAN'S SPHERE.

My idea is, if woman has the abili-
ty and talent equally to, or exceeding
that of man, she should put those
talents to use, instead Of letting them
lay dormant, rusting away their fresh
ness, dulling their perceptability year

they are women. If woman has an

cultivate it, giving as much liberty to
lay before the public world her thoughts

as lofty and pure thoughts as if she

A Primitive Piute Funeral.

An old Piute Indian departed for the
happy hunting ground, by way old age
and general debility, from the camp on
the Hill back of the City Hall last night.
1t is not the custom Of the piute5 to bury
their dead, and in this instance they
merely carried the corpse few rods from
the camp and deposited it in the ground.
City Marshal Brennan, learning this
morning that the corpse was lying ex-
posed ON the hillside, commanded. Cap
tain Sam to have it. properly. buried.
Sam is an intelligent native and made no
objections to complying with the Mar
shaPs order; but five other Indians
standing by, whom he asked to assist il
the burial, positively refused to have
anything to do with it. Upon this the
officer threatened that unless they pro-
ceeded to bury the dead Indian forth.
with, he would arrest them and have
them fined four million dollars each
This threat had the desired effect on the
Indians, and the funeral commenced
They wrapped the corpse in a robe OF
rabbit skins and tied UP with ropes

This they dragged over the hill to an
old shaft, into which they dumped il

Mr.. Akakof said: at is our duty
not only to watch over the material in
terests of the Slavs in Turkey, and to
protect them from the attacks of the
Mussulmans. We must at the same
time defend them from the attacks of
the west, which strives to deprive them
of their spiritual individuality. The
sufferings of our brethren, from which
Russia is destined to free them, are not
only physical, but also moral, consisting
in the humiliation and mutilation in
tlicted on their moral character by Latin

is to protect the whole Slaronic world
not only from material sufferings, but
also from those influences which prevent

papers are careful not to give details,
though it is well known that the Rus
slams have protected the mouth of the
Dnieper by line of torpedoes, and that
by order of General Toothben, the en-
inent Russian engineer, ships are being
piloted from Otscha to Nicolajen 50 as
not to come into contact with the torpe-

as the basis of operations of the Russian

,structed at Perekop, and at various
points on the lower Don. The harbor
of Odessa is already full of torpedoes; on
the quarantine quay of this harbor three
heavily armed batteries have been placed.

he purchased a large estate from noble
lord, and it was part of the arrangement
that he was to take the house, with all
it's furniture, precisely as it stood. On
taking possession, however, he found
that cabinet, which was in the inven-
tory, had been removed, and on applying
to the former owner about it, the latter
said: "Well, / did order it to be re-
moved, but | hardly thought you would

characteristic reply, eff l had not all my
