Rich Strike.

The last issue of the Typo Sun chron-
icles the following discovery : Marks
and Kellogg, two veteran ~prospectors,
who have for years explored the noun.
tains in this vicinity in search Of the
precious metals, have at last ''struck
it rich" in the Mountain View mine,
about ten miles north Of Typo. The
ore is very rich, some of it assaying up
into the thousands. The average as
say is about $500 per ton, free milling
ere. The ore body is very large, and
the discoveries have a body worth not
less than Sl0.0 0 stripped ready to take
out. The facilities for the cheap work
ing of the ore, and its free character,
renders the ''find" still more valuable.
The Mountain View mine is situated in
the old Siianandoa Mining District,
about six miles from Hot Creek, in a
we'll. wooded section. Messrs. Marks

sufficient water 10 run a small mill,

The WrOng Gender.

A we'll known citizen, who is noted
for his ea!lantry, knowledge of the
dead languages and fondness for ca
mines. presented a lady friend lately
with a handsome masculine black and.
tan, and accompanied the gift with a
note, stating that the dog answered to
the name of ''Quercus," and fearing
she might think, If she thought about
it AT all, that the name was a shortened
ex pression for "queer cuss," or per
haps something worse, he tool occa-
sion to ex pIain that "Quercus" was a
Latin word, which. beng properly in
terpreted, means the oak. Imagine
his surprise, when he received a few
DAYS later the folIowing reply from the
lady:

Tickle, convicted of an assault with
intent to do bodily injury, is a victim
of misrepresentation on the part of the

us that there was a disagreement
among them as to his guilt; a portion
wishing TO bring in a verdict of guilty
as charged in the indictment, and the
rest standing out for assault. They

The ADDIe Worm.

Mr.. p II. Foster sends to the
Scientific american his mode Of des-
troying the apple worm: After
the worm has entered the fruit and
accomplished its damage. the time
arrives when it has to leave the fruit
and hide itself in quiet, secure pS-
sition to undergo the transition from
the larva to the pupa state, which re-
quires, in the early part of the sea-
son, eight or ten days; after this
time the miller is hatched and is
again ready TO hesiege the fruit with
it's sting. The insect, being two
brooded in this climate at least, if
not disturbed, has an aggregatIng
force to do mischief the second time.
The progeny for the succeeding year
have alone to depend on the securi-
ty Of this second generation Of larvae.
AS they may often be found in bark
of apple trees during winter, my
plan OF destruction is. about the first
Of July to take WOODEN rags large
enough to wrap around the trees,
and say fonr inches wide. Each
week look over the trees and des-
troy the worms secreted under the
rags, and whenever I find them. IN
til the fruit is off the trees. | have
all the green fruit, of every kind,
carefully picked up as soon as it
falls, thereby destroying many Of
the cureulio as we'll as the apple
worms. In future ] intend TO poison
the rags made use of to capture the
insect"
Mr.. Foster estimates that the
ravages OF this pest cause loss TO
the fruit growers OF the United States
fully equal to per cent. interest on
the national debt. a statement which
shows The Importance Of an effective
remedy.
