what q S.,u Francisco Gentleman
wfaO II led 10 says.

A correspondent of the San Fran
cisco Bulletin, who, the editor of that
journal says, holds responsible official
POSITION il the city, rccounts his own
experience with that dread disease,
diphtheria, as follows:
This terrible disease is on the in
crease again in this city, and appar-
emily our physicians are as much in the
dark about it as ever. About year ago
little child of mine was taken sick
with sore throat, and in spite of all our
doctor could do Zone of the most emf
nent in this State), she grew worse,
until he at last pronounced the case to
be diphtheria, and advised us to keep
our two younger children away from
the house if possible.
Our itsle one was so far gone that
, she could hardly breathe, and told
! my wife that should our little one die,
we would never forgive ourselves if we
did not try remedy so often me IL
toned in the different newspapers, aid
at last with her consent tried it.
First, l blew flour of sulphur through
a paper tube into the throat of our lit
tie patient. Il would have preferred a
gargle of sulphur, but the little one
was too far gone to gargle). Then
carried hot stove-lid into the sick
room, and rubbed stick sulphur ON it
until the room was filled with the
fumes, SO that our little one was forced
to inhale it lat the same time / kept
my two younger children in the ROOM
/ continued this for about five min
utcs, and although it was a hard trial
for a suffocating child, the next day
she was almost entirely well, and our
other children were not taken sick at
all.
/ firmly believe that the above is a
sure remedy for diphtheria.
Let any one be physician or other
wise, who does not have faith i'll it,
tell me his reason why it should not be
sure cure, or let any one who has
tried it it tell me whether it has failed
to destroy the disea7e.
/ do not write this article for the
sake of seeing it in print, or of throw
Ing a slur upon our noble and able
medical profession, but loving my httle
ones better than anything upon earth,
/ give my hard learned experience to
the public for the benefit of those whose
little darlinSs are as dear to them as
ours are to US.

ahoat as to the cause Of the detention.
Some surmised that it had collided
with special train which left here ia
the forenoon, while others thought that
it had been ditched by cattle getting
on the track 1t was ascettained, how
ever, upon lis arrival at a telegraph
station, that fue bursted in the
boiler at Piute side-t.ack, aud that iii
order to plug it the fire had to be put
out and the sSeam permitted to escape
so that man could go through the
fire-box to plhg the broken hue, after
which steam had to be again generated
before the train could proceed.

The Reno Journal says the Robertson
process for working free and rebelious
ores is beginning to attract much atten-
ton among our mining men. In fact
it is being generally sought after by ex-
perts. The inventor claims that it will
work equal to a fire assay. Mr.. w. II.
Tredway of this place, has thoroughly
acquainted himself with the workings,
and is now engaged in testing the basest
ores Of Peavine and Pyramid mining dis
tricts, and always with perfect success.
One piece of rock, ranking as the basest
found in this section, weighing three
pounds and half, yielded twenty-eight
grains of bullion. This is at the rate of
about $lJ0 a tonin silver, to say moth
ing of the gold. Every test SO far has
equalled if not exceeded, the expecta-
tions Of the miners. Mr.. Tredway in
tends at an early day to erect furnace
that will work one Ton of ore per hour
If this furnace will do what is claimed
for it, and there seems to be every in
dicaeion that it will, it will prove OF
incalculable benefit to this section where
base metals abound, and render valua-
BILE many properties that are now worth
less and revolutionize quartz working.
The result will be watched with much
interest. Already experienced miners
are beginning to have faith in it..

Wednesday, and killed Tom Robinson,

interview with real live Russian Nihi,ist,
who found it convenient to leave his native
land between two suns. Among other
things, he said officers Of high raak are cN.

are reckless OF their own safety; but many
others OF less consequence are disposed OF
in ways less dangerous to the exccutiones,
The government carefully suppresseS al

course, the Nihilists don't seek to give pub
licity to their deeds, so the world knows

judgments are carried out in Russia.

Study to Have Ideas.

A suggestive story is told of the late
Joseph Harrison, of Philadelphia, in
yentor of the sectional boiler for which
the Academy of Arts and Sciences
awarded him the Rumford medal, and
widely known as the partner of Winans
in Russian railway contracts. He was
climbing the Gemmi, in Switzerland,
accompanied by a young man, and the
conversation fell on the younger's
chance of rising in the world should he
embrace the profession of mechanical
engineer. Mr.. Harrison favored the
idea, saying that this was the age of
invention and improvement, that ma
chinery was constantly being applied to
new uses, and that he who would make
it study rnd master it in all it's forms
would never lack for remunerative en-
pleyment. "But I have no skill in
drawing" objected the young man.
Neither have T." said Mr.. Harrison; II
never had time to learn. But l have
always found that if I had an idea I
could express it on single with
piece of chalk. and let draughtsman
work it out handsomely and according
to rule. And I've generally had ideas
enough to keep three or four draughts-
men busy. You can always hire
draughtsmen, but you can't hire ideas.
Study to have ideas, my boy" It may
be added that Mr.. Harrison's success
was due not to scholastic advantages,
but 10 native capacity and personal eff
fort. -Scie1atiic american.

A Blunder and Its Rewards

During his first visit to Paris, M. La
sale, distinguished German, present
ed himself at the house of well-known
lady, to whom he had sent letters of
introduction in advance. When the
servant opened the door and received
his card, she conducted him to the bou-
doir and told him to be seated, saying
Madame will come Immediately"
Presently the lady entered. She was
dishabille, and her feet we're bare, COW
cred only with loose slippers. She
bowed to him carelessly, and said:
"Ah, there you are; good morning"
She threw herself on sofa, let fall a
slipper, and reached out to Lasalle her
very pretty foot.
Lasalle was naturally completely as
founded, but he remembered that at
his home in Germany it was the custom
sometimes to kiss lady's hand, and he
supposed it was the Paris mode to kiss
her foot. Therefore he did not hest
tate to imprint kiss upon the fascinat-
ing foot so near him, but he could not
avoid SAYING: 4" I thank you, madame,
for this new method of making lady's
acquaintance. It is much better, and
certainly more generous than kissing
the hand"
The lady jumped up, highly indig-
nant. Who are you, sir, and what do
you mean?"
He gave his name.
"You are not, then, a corn-doctor?
1t am charmed to say, madame, that
I am not"
"But you sent me the corn-doctor's
card"
It was true. Lasalle, in going out
that morning, had picked up the card
of conductor from his bureau and
