Strong Big Ben of California.

John w. Sutton, '49er, leetured be-
fore the Manhattan Liberal Club last
evening, about California when in the
delirum of the gold fever. Among
the uncouth miners about him,
he said, were "Big Benz
and =" Little Dick" mates. "Big Ben"
was far above any man in the mining
region in stature, burly, and of wonder
ful strength, his fayorite pastime being
bending crowbars. "Little Dick" was
curiosity for the stalwart miners on
account of his smallness; and meaner
soul was never in a man weighing eigh-
ty pounds. 'Little Dick" was quarrel
some, but cowardly, and "Big Ben"
had to do the hitting for him. So, al
though inoffensive and kindly naturally,
" Big Ben" got the reputation of des-
perado.
In the mining powders too heavy to
be handled by few men were often en-
countered, and when they were
the proprietors of adjacent claims were
invited to assist in removing them.
" Big Benz was never forgotten, and he
did the work of half dozen sturdy men.
But after the bowlder had been moved
nearly far enough, he commonly thrust
the crowbar well under the bowlder,
and, pressing his shoulder against the
crowbar, bent it nearly double. Final
ly Jim Cook, the blacksmith, vowed
that he would weld crowbar that 60 Big
Benz could not bend The latter re-
membered this, his first defeat, to his
dying moment.
There came from the States, to recu
perate, the Doctors wife and tiny
daughter, ''Birdie." She became very
fond of ''Big Ben," and he worshiped
her. Though he was panning or era
ding with a glimmer of the yellow
specks at the bottom Frightening his
eyes, he would go when ''Birdie" said,
"Come, Ben, want some flowers, or
pretty stones" For years afterward
the miners used to say, between the puffs
of their evening pipes, that ''Big Benz
never weakened" but once. 1t was in
front of a saloon. "Little Dick was
the aggressor, and pistols and bowie
knives cleaned. "Birdie" said, "COme,
Ben, with me-" and, catching her up in
his arms, 'sBig Ben" walked away.
The mining camp was by the side of
the bed of dried-up stream. Across
its high banks a single fallen tree ex-
tended, the only connection between the
camp and the flowery slope beyond the
river. One afternoon, as suddenly
streams in that region do return to their
beds, mighty flood poured down the
bed. The miners saw ''Birdie' gather
ing flowers on the opposite slope. "Big
Ben," returning with "Little Dick"
saw her peril. He shouted, "Dick, go
across and get the child, and I'll hold
the bridge" He put his crowbar into
crevice beneath the tree, and braced his
massivei shoulder against it. ''Little
Dick' darted across the tree, about
which the waters were rising fast,
snatched up ''Birdie,' and ran; and as
he darted across it and sprang to the
shore, the tree whirled down the current,
and "Big Ben" fell PROSTATE. Bloody
foam was on his lips. He had ruptured
in1c
wiped away the foam, and, looking up,
"Big Ben" whispered, 81 saved Dir
die and bent the barr and died. He
had bent the crowbar that Jim Cook
had forged to overtax his strength

Gentleman Jim---A Romance of
the Mines.

In the Diamond shaft there was no
steadier, harder worker than Jim Gar
diner. What he did with his money
was long a mystery-he had no wife, no
family, no expensive habits, no relatives
that any one knew of, and yet no saw
ings bank account. 1t was learned later
that all but the little needed for his dali
" wants went for charity-found its
way quietly, unobtrusively, into the huts
of women and children whose husbands
and fathers had gone down in the crush
of falling timbers or come forth black
and crisp from the scorching fire-damp.
There was something about Gardiner
that suggested former life of higher
grade. He talked little, but that little
was in words well chosen, and of choice
dialect. His dress was as rough as the
toughest, but he carried it as a man who
had been used to face the world smiling
ly. They called him " Gentleman Jim"
in the mines, but they all liked him as
man who always played fair and asked
no odds.
In the accident of last April, when the
roof of part of the mine fell in, Gar
diner was killed. 1t appeared in the
evidence that there were few seconds,
during the crack of timbers, before the
roof fairly came down, and in that brief
time, in those few beats of the pulse,
g Gentleman Jim" caught two boys with
his hon-like strength, and tossed them
clear out of the fatal chamber into the
safe main alley. Then he went down
with the roof.
When his body was recovered the
next day, they found him with his right
hand thrust inside his vest and clasping
tight a little pocket-boOk. There was
nothing in ii save a card, on which was
fastened, with drop of sealing wax on
the stem, all that remained of a rosebud
and two geranium leaves. Underneath
was written, in woman's hand: "Ma-
rie-TOute q tOi-June 4, 1867" Just
below was written, in mans hand,

thorn. Cincinnati Times.

For Heavens sake, Tom, don't you

Motherhood.

All about the dreamy house
Fits sunbeam, softly bright,
Goldlocks with tresses light
Dancing, tossing up and down;
o, sweet heaveni for such crowni
In and out where all Is still,
sound gay tones in shout and song;
Dimpled-cheeksla laugh loud and long
From pure merIiment within;
Fun and she are near of kin.
Up and down the quiet room,
In the garden, on the stair,
Ruby lips is everywhere;
Chattering as childhood Will,
Only when i'm mischief, still.
" Mamma this, and Mamma" that,
" Tant ~ Tan 2" all the hours,
Eyes like stars and breath like flowers,
Busy little hands and feet;
God makes motherhood so sweet.
Golden Rule.

How a Boy Robbed New York
Bank of $4,000.

A bold robbery occurred shortly be-
day, at the New York National Ex-
change Bank, No. 1873 Chambers Street,
nearly opposite the southern end of
West Broadway, and the very bOldness
of the operation secured its success.
Shortly after2 O'Clock in the afternoon
a lad in his shirt sleeves went into the
bank, ostensibly for the purpose of
making some inquiry of the cashier,
which necessitated that officer leaving
the gate window for few moments,
although remaining within few yards
of the same. By some oversight the
gate was left open while the lad was
making his inquiries, and on the desk
lay a bundle of currency notes, various
lv estimated in amount from $4,000 to
$4,000. Whether it was a part of
preeoncerted plan of the bold robbers, or
not, can not now be ascertained; but,
while the cashiers back was turned,
the thief seized the bundle of bills and
quickly made his way from the bank
without creating any noise or attracting
the attention of any of the clerks, or
even the cashier, who, on returning to
the gate, was surprised to find that his
% anxious inquirer had disappeared.
A very few moments after it was dis
oo,-arad that the hund1e of bills was
missing, and then the cause of the lads
strange departure was evident. A pur-
suit was at once instituted, but, of
course, the thief could not be found, as
he had had time enough to leave the
bank, put on a coat and get out of range.
The casual chances at the lad were not
sufficient for any description to be given
of him that would be likly to lead to his
arrest.-New York Commercial AdUer-

THE RUSSO WAR.
CONTINUED from Aois No. a.

In our first and second articles on this
subject we have traced the origin and
growth ct the Turkish power, and pointed
out some of the causes OF its decline. In
the course of our enquiries we have seen
that many OF the wars in which Turkey
has been engaged have been brought
about by the comp plants and struggles Of
the subject Christian populations. The
present war, the causes Of which we now
intend to outline, is no exception to this
rule. The first shadow of the coming
storm was perceived in the refusal by the
Herzegovinian peasantry to pay the taxes
imposed by the Turkish authorities.
