The Coal Beds Of China.

Baron Won Richtbofen, in a communi-
cation to an Austrian journal, calculates
the coal product Of the Chinese empire
at three million tons annually. All the
eighteen provinces of the empire, he
says, contain coal, and although the
extent of the coal fields and the age and
quality of the coal vary, yet China may
be regarded as one Of the first coal coun-
tries of the world. The area of its coal
fields exceeds the extent of those OF
North America, and with that of Shansi
no other coal region can be compared in
the union OF the most fortunate condi-
tions as regards position, quality and
quantity. With a yearly output OF
300. 600, 900 ton s this extensive bed OF
anthracite alone could cover the whole
present demand Of the world for 2,4OC
years.

Custer's Field Glass.

Wade Hampton, and the conversati IN
drifted into war "reminiscences. Among
other military personages, Gen. Hamp-
ton spoke of Gen. Custer, and expressed
his appreciation of the dead hero in the
highest terms. Senator Christiancy re-
piled that he was we'll acquainted with
all of General Clusters family, having
known him from childhood. Then Gen.
Hampton remarked that during the war
some of the soldiers of his command at
the Battle of Brandywine had captured
a field glass belonging to Ger. Custer
and given it to him, and he General
Hampton) had used it during the last
two years of the conflict. Senator Chris
tiancy was asked if he thought Mrs
Custer would like to have the glass.
The senator said EYES," and at once
wrote to Mrs. Custer about the matter.
She sent letter to General Hampton,
saving that she would doubly appreciate
the relic because it had been the prop
erty of two brave men, and she added
that her husband had been an admirer
of General Hampton. The latter sent
word that as soon as he could get the
glass brought down from his mountain

"Ingoldsby," a fair, frail young man,
from the Flint river district, sends us a
beautiful poem, of which we can only
afford space for one line. 81 would fly
to the woods like the whip-poor-will. "
He can't fly, there's no use talking or
thinking about it; he might go in a
balloon. but he never can fly like the
-poor-will, if he tried all summer.
However, if he writes any more poetry
like that, we will see that he goes to the
woods if we have to carry him there.
The woods is the place for that kind OF
poetry.-Bwrlington Hasokeye.

COME TOGETHER AT LAST.

Miss Carney walked up the long
green lane on her way home from a tea
party.
She wore brown silk dress and O
brown bonnet, and carried large brown
parasol in her hand.
The browns were of different shades.
and ran softly into each other. like the
tints upon dove.
All the lines of her figure were smooth
and rounded.
She was very pretty old lady in
deed, and must have been a very pretty
girl, though she was spinster, and
people who believed that all unmarried
women were left upon the boughs of
single blessedness because they tempted
nobody to pluck them, must have owned
chat it could not be so in her case.
Down the lane, coming towards her,
walked gentleman.
He was tall and broad, his hair was
grey, and his hat was grey and his
summer suit was grey his beard was
grey also.
He, oddly enough was shaded off into
another sort of dove.
The green trees were all about them
both, the green grass beneath their feet.
The roses nodded over the fence.
If these had been two young people
instead of two old people, one might
have fancied it lovers rendezvous, but
they were old.
OF course there could be no romance
about them.
In the middle of the lane, shaded by
great chestnut trees, stood an old house.
Honeysuckle draped the porch.
There was an old fashioned sweep in
the well.
1t was altogether thing of the past
no modern cottage of architectural
mysteries. 1t was so old fashioned that
it must have been the same when those
two people were young. Yes, when
their parents were born doubtless it
stood, by no means new house, just as
it stood now.
The pretty old lady in brown reached
the gate OF this house first.
She lifted the latch and stood looking
down the road, thinking that it must be
that the handsome old gentleman in
grey had lost his way and would inquire
of her, for the lane was no thorough
fare because of fence and gate and a
sign. with "All persons are forbid to
trespass upon these grounds" nailed
upon it.
The old lady's father had put up the
sign the day after the peddler had stolen
all his pears.
No neighbor minded it. but strangers
did.
So the old lady waited courteously to
tell the stranger that he might take the
short cut through the orchard If he
chose.
"He walks like somebody I know.
Who can it be ?" she asked herself.
Then she suddenly blushed, and
looked prettier than ever. Yes, certain
". it could not be because no one hao
desired to pluck her that she remained
a faded rose upon the branch-Misi
Carney, not Mrs. anybody.
On came the old gentleman in hi
gray coat, and as he looked at the LITTLE
old lady he doffed his gray hat.
Madam" he said, "this is wher'
Mr.. Edward Carney used to live,
know. Does he live here now"
But the old lady looked at him will
sudden start.
"Oh |" she cried, and added, "No
he does not"
"He is -" began the old gentle
man.
"It is his tombstone that you can se
under the great willow in the highes
part of the churchyard," she said
pointing through the trees. "He wa
| eighty when he died"

and left the platform. The incident
created consi1euoble merriment
among the audience, which the
child, in returning to his seat, MOTTO

amused at some mistake Of his, he
made bow to the pastor, and said,
thank you, sir" and went to his
seat, satisfied that he had not COM

RAINIER AND BAKER.--Mount
Baker, in this Territory, is four
teen miles south OF the bounda-
ry line OF the British possessions,
and was named by Vancouver in
compliment to his third lieuten-
ant, Joseph Baker, who discov-
cred it. Very careful measure
ment makes its height 1854
feet. In October, 1864, in con-
sequence of an earthquake shock,
an immense portion of the sum
NIT fell in, so that the appear
ance of the peak as seen from
Victoria was decidedly altered,
it being no longer conical and
shary, but truncaued. Mount
Rainier was named by Vancouv-
er after his friend Rear Admiral
Rainier. 1t is the highest mem
Der Of the whole range. Mount
st. Helens was named also by
Vancouver, as we are told, for
an English ambassador to the
court OF Madrid. An extended
account of Mount Hood is given
in the last of Mr.. Colman's artl-
cles. He rejects an estimate OF
the height OF Mt. Adams which
was made by DR.. Vansant of he
United States army, which made
the altitude of this mountain 49,
25S feet. This is manifestIy an
error. 1t would make this sum-
NIT two thousand feet higher
than Mt. Hood. He thinks its
height does not exceed 5000
| feet.

METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH
The quarterly love~feast was held at
9H o'clock. The pastor, Rev. I. Dillon
reported for the quarter five accessions
to Church membership by letter, and
six on probation. Three had been dis
missed by letter. Among those who
related religious experience at this meet.
ing was Mr.. Georges Winsor, who for
more than 50 years has been among the
servants of the living God. He said he
had lived to find out by experience that
there was nothing in this world that
could satisfy human soul out of
Christ" "fhere is nothing true but
Heaven" His remarks made a deer,

preached from Luke xxiii-34: Father,

exemplifcstion of the true spirit o.
Christianity "a spirit of love for our
enemies and of prayer to God for their
forgiveness. IF any man have not the
spirit of Christ he Is none of his" AT
night, Rev. vssic 4. G. smitA. OF White river,
preached from Titus I'LL: ''For the
grace of God that bringeth salvation
hath appeared to all men," He dwelt
particularly on the subject of salvation,
showing that it implied danger and diff
fculty. In very logical manner he
proved from the exciting state Of socies

Plain Facts.

A correspondent living in the
Territory writes to a newspaper
published at Rogers Park, ILL.,,
as follows:
This may seem to you one of
lthe "utermost parts of the earth"
but | believe that to those in
search of employment or homes
where they can be independent,
and soon acquire a competency,
it is one of the most desirable
places in all of Uncle Sans vast
domain. The climate is absolute
ly without . rival. We have
none Of the enervating, tropical
heats of the states farther east
in summer, while our winters
are milder than those Of Ken
lucky or Tennessee. While |
write the harder varieties of
flowers in our gardens are in
bloom, and cattle, sheep and hor-
ses find an abundance of pastur-
age on land which is common to
all. In fact we never think N
cutting hay for our stock. Our
winter rainfall is a little above
the average, but our summers
are dry and delightful, with only
rain enough to keep vegetation
IN a healthy, growing condition.
The soil OF the valleys is Of
wonderful fertility and thous Is
of acres are still unimproved. A
fair estimate may be made Of
the amount Of this unimprovod
land when it is remembered that
in all this vast Territory we have
but about 30, 600 inhabitants, and
a large part of these live in the
cities and villages along Puget
Sound.
Our forests are practi :ally in
exhaustlble and supply some of
the finest lumber in the world,
Game of all kinds is abundant
and always in the finest condi-
ion, while the waters swarm
with innumerable schools of fish.
Did your space permit | could
say much more Of our resources,
and Of the advantages which
men Of moderate means might
find here for securing homes.
TO those who are not afraid to
work or to live in log houses,
and who have means enough to
subsist upon for one year, which
among people of our simple hab-
its means very little, and to all
who are able or willing to work
for their living, we say emphat-
ically come. You will never re-
gret it.
Mr.. Moody told his Sprin g
field audience the other night
that he can tell on looking over

the expression of their faces.
Then he told them story about

rap, thought it was the landlord
come to demand the rent. She
refused to answer, and thus
turned away friend who wish
ed to give her money. The au-
dience laughed at this, but
Moody stopped them abruptly
by crying: "You laugh at that
woman, but it was, yourself, sin
ner.'

THE REPUBLICAN,! !!

We take pleasure in announcing that we
have made arrangements with the publish
er of the CHICAGO WEEKLY News which
enables to offer that paper to our sub
scribers as premium, at no additional
cost ovor the regular subscription price OF
the REPUBLICAN.
For one subscription price we thus fur
nish our subscribers with two papers-a
metropolitan and home weekly. BY
this arrangement our subscribers are pla-
ced in command OF the whole situation
All events of interest, local, national and
foreign will be presented, completely and
promptly, by the one or the other OF these
two publications. The single feature Of
full and trustworthy Chicago market quo
taiions will be worth, to many of our
readers, the entire subscription price.
To those who are not familiar with the
CHICAGO NEWS, we would say it Is the
best representative of independent jour-
nalism in the west. The WEEKLY NEWS
is a large eight column folio, 'cram iull"
of telegraph and general news, short aud
pithy editorials on the topics of the day,
written in very familiar, incisive style,
and in all its departments evidently aims
to give facts in few words, without the
verbiage and fine writing which render
so many of the large metropolitan jour
nails "a WEAKNESS TO the flesh" Facts,
not words appear to be its matto.
All new subscribers to the REPUBLICAN,
and all old subscribers who renew before
the first of January, will receive the
WEEKLY News six months as premium.

A Strange End To a Fight.

Two skulls OF stays, with their
horns so firmly locked together that
they could not be separated. were
found one day in the mountains OF
Colorado. 1t is quite plain that they
once belonged to couple OF stays
who had terrible fight in the soli-
tude of the mountains. After the
combat had been kept up some time,
their horns became 80 tangled and
locked together that they could not
get them apart. 1t is very probable
thatwhen this happened, they stopped
thinking OF fighting, and tried their
best to get away from each other.
But this was Of no use. Their horns
were 80 firmly interlocked that they
could not twist nor pull them apart.
So they stumbled about, for the rest
OF their lives, with their heads close
together. We cannot know how
long they lived this way. They may
have been able to eat a little grass,
if both OF them agreed TO put down
their heads at the same time. But at
last they died. And how curiously
things turned outl Each OF them
hoped to kill the other, and yet the
result OF the quarrel was to bind
them together as long as they lived
and even death did not part them
And, il they thought that no one
would ever know OF their fight they
were mistakeni The record of the
combat-their two skulls fastened
together has remained for many q
long year, and will reman for many
year to come. 1t was truly 9
strange end to fight.
Shakespeare makes Polonius say
..Beware
OF entrance to quarrel; but, being In,
Bear't, that the opposer may beware OF thee"
These stays did that with q ven
geance; didn't they?
1t very often happens in othel
fights or disputes that the fighter,
cannot stop and separate just wher
they wish to. Something is apt L
get hopelessly interlocked and tan
gled, such as goodwill, or self-re
Ispect, or fairness, or honor. Still
