The Suicide City.

San Francisco may fairly be called the
Y" Suicide City" From 1860 to 1874, the
reported cases Of seli-destruction aver
aged about thirty-tive year among the
white population. But in the latter
year the number suddenly jumped to
siXty-One, and it has since reached 1903.
Comparative statistics show that the
proportion of suicides to all deaths in
San Francisco is fully three times as
great as in New York, although in
stances of fself-destruction are from vari-
Gus causes extremely frequent in the lat
ter city. The mania for self-destructiOn
in the chief city of the Pacific slope is at
tributed to the consequences of the uni
versal passion of the population for gam
bling in mining stocks. Suicides in
creased with the growth Of the mining
excitement, and since the collapse of
mining shares in 1877 over 200 persons
have cut short their existence with their
own hands. Taken in connection with
the business losses, crimes, suffering and
disorders of the last few years, the above
facts show that the Bonanza mines have
not proved an unmiXed blessing to the
people OF the Golden State.-Bl4tdLO

Introduction Of the wonderful remedy of that tribe.
Tho experience OF bIr. Eastman being similar TO
tSat OF Mrs. Chas Jones and son, OF Washington
Co, Iowa, en- account Of whose sufferinrs were
thrillingly narrated in the Nei0 York Herald of Dec
18th, 1873 the facts of which ere so widely

here. They are, however, published in neat vol

Among the Comanches and Apaches," of which
mention Will be made hereafter Suffice 1t to say,
that for several years, Mr.. Eastman, while cap.

barks herbs and berries OF which Wakauietkla's
medicine was made, and is still prepared to pro-
vide the SAME materials for the successful intro

RattIesnakes i'm the Wall.

A letter from Santa Fee, N. NJ, says:
New Mexico has brilliant climate; one
could hardly desire better, but there are
incidents about that climate. A gentle
man built handsome frame house IN
Central New Mexico, and took his fami-
ly to live in it. Itcame winter, and a fire
was regularly built in the kitchen stove.
One day the cat was about to get under the
stove, according to the custom of Its kind,
when it was observed to give a jump Of
an unusual altitude, and a numbet Of el-
oquent snarls. Investigation showed
rattlesnake curled up under and enjoying
the heat of the stove. The snake was
killed, but the next day another one APP
peared in the same place. This thing was
kept up for some days. A snake was kill
ed every day. Finally one was found In
the gentleman's bed. He watched to see
where they came from, and in the end
satisfied himself on this point. Breaking
away the wooden plank which lined the
wall at the junction of the floor in the
kitchen, he came upon nest of rattle
snakes in the wainscoting. Emigrants
never sleep on the ground in New Mexico.
Another pleasant feature of the climate
is to wake up in the middle Of the night
and hear ccntipede scratching over the
counterpane. These ugly little devils
leave dark red trails on the flesh they
crawl over. Tarantulas are quite socia-

"A FLAT"

Arthur Hoyat looked at himself in the
glass seriously, and without self-lovc or
se;f-prejudice. He saw there a frank,
good natured face. pair of blue eyes,
and mass Of curly brown hair AS fat
as be could judge there was nothing par
ticularly out of the way with his counte-

Xcnophon, "I've been taking account of

donably wrong abont MY features. They
arc not angular enough to be called sharp,
nor level enough to be justly styled fiat;
so cam exactly see the suitableness of
the expression which has somehow come
to be my college cognomen."
"Don't be tool!" growled Dick, with
out looking up from his book.

"A Flat is really applicable as correct

IF you'd rob hen's-roosts, and steal
the housekeeper's preserves, and lay traps
to trip up old men and women, and raise
Cain generally, you'd be the most popu-.

disdainful grimace, still with his eyes
fixed on his book "They let me alone,

and you refuse to spend 1t in riotous liv-

I'm OF no consequence. Whoever says
that there isn't compensation.for every

"You're a patient old soldier" said
Arthur, with a merry laugh, land wish

But. the fact is, every time I'm called "A

me. I am afraid that some time my fist
will become manageable"
II guess not!' Dick replied. "You'd
only get yourself in worse muss, beside
having something to he sorry for all the
days Of your life, perhaps! But there's
the bell, and I'm out Of the bolt-ropes

'There's row in the camp!" said Ar
