A Miners Good Fortune.

There is an italian in Nevada City
who owes fortune to a drink of water.
AS the transcript relates the incident,
he arrived at the Golden Gate in Quest of
fortune and found his way to the
Sierra Butte mine. where he failed to get
employment. After receiving numerous
rebuffs, he started to return to the lower
country again. He became so weary,
footsore and disheartened that he began
to wish himself back to sunny Italy once
more, among the vines and olives. He
grew feverish thinking of his trials and
tribulations, and stopped at a spring to
moisten his parched throat. Cattle had
been that way u short time before, and
with their feet stirred up the limpid
water until it became thick with mud.
The Italian scooped out the basin and
waited until the sand should settle to
the bottom, that he might slake his
thirst and battle his brow. By-and-by
the water became clear as crystal, and
he stopped to drink An astonishing
sight met his eyes. The bottom of the
spring was strewn with bright yellow
particles that glittered in their waterv
bed. With all his ignorance of mining
he knew he had found gold. He rushed
tXcitealy to a camp where lived some of
his countrymen, and told thestoryot his
discovery, but they were incredulous.
saying that some miner had stopped at
the spring to drink and lost what was
found from his purse. One of them,
however, volunteered to help prospect
the claim, although he had no confidence
in developing permanent or profitable
one. The first day panned out 800.
Since then they have worked it con-
stantly and on an extensive scale. 1t
has paid handsomely from the first.
Last year they took out $40, 600, and sold
One-quarttr interest for 500, 900 more.

A SIgn.PaInter,s Invention.

A woman who opened small millin-
cry store in the western part of the city,
says the Detroit Free Press, engaged a
painter to paint her a sign. When it
came home the other day she saw that it
read "Mrss, j. Blank etc., and she
called out, "You have got an extra S ;
in Mrs. and you must paint the sign
over again" The painter saw the error,
but he did not want the job of correcting
it, and he replied Madam, haven't
you had two husbands?" Yes, sir. -
g You were Mrs. when you lost the
irstPn 81 was.n "And do you think
a woman can go on marrying forever
and not lengthen out her titlep Mrs.
means a married woman or a widow.
Mrss. means a woman who has been
married twice, and is young enough to
marry again, and only yesterday rich
old coon was in our shop, and said if he
had any idea that you were heart-free
he'd come up" "Oh, well, you can
nail up the sign" she interrupted And
it is there to-day.

NapOleOn's First Glimpse of Eugenie.

A few nights before the coup Getat
which made him emperor, President
Louis Napoleon gave a grand ball at the
Elysee. Thewealth and fashion of Paris
were represented there. Perfume of
flowers and strains of sweet music filled
the air. Magnificent as the scene was.
the president tired of it and longed to be
out under the calmer light of the stars :;
so taking his friend, Edgar Ney, the
Duke of la Moskwa, by the arm, he
started out through the conservatory for
the cool gardens. AS he stepped through
the doorway a picture met his gaze that
almost took away his breath, and for
moment he stood as one in a dream. 1t
was not long, however, before he saw
that the beautiful vision was reality.
Standing before mirror in the conserVa-
tory was the most exquisite creature he
had ever seen in his life. A young lady,
whose golden hair had fallen from its
contining comb down over her white
shoulders, was trying to arrange the tru-
ant curls with nervous fingers. The gal
lantry of a Frenchman would not permit
him to stand staring in the doorway even
mt so beautiful a sight; so, stepping
quickly to her side, the future emperor,
with a courtly bow, offered his arm to
his future bride and conducted her to
dressing-room where she could repair
the ravages of the dance. 1t was n case
of love at first sight, and the ardent Ma
poleon fastened back to the ballroom,
where he awaited with impatience the
return of the beautiful Espagnole. Nor
did his regard for Mile. de Montijo prove
transitory. His attentions became so
marked that one day Nine de MontiIo
asked private audience of the prince,
and told him that his attentions to her
daughter were the subject of comment,
and that she thought they had better
leave France. This was at st. Cloud.
where the mother and daughter were
both paying visit. No doubt thq
prince had made up his mind what to do
but princes cannot always lay bare their
plans. The mother was told to stay un-
til the next day; that he would have
something of Importance to communi-
cate or the morrow. Did the Aabitious
old lady suspectP-NetO York Ia, "a.

A Shocking Fellow.

George Bell, ofPortland, Oregon, now
visiting friends in this city, possesses
the remarkable popularity of being able
to deliver shock as perceptible and dis
tinct as that from galvanic battery. He
attended the ball given by the Master
Mariners Association at B'nai Birth
Hall, and there created considerable
amusement for those who knew the
secret of his powers by the way in which
he treated the ladies to whom he was in
troduced and with whom he mingled in
the dance. A Chronicle reporter called
upon him at the residence of his brother.
in-law, W. f. Peck, on Mission street,
last evening, to request an explanation
of the phenomenon.
You can call it phenomenon or
anything else, " said Mr.. Bell, "but can
give no explanation of it. / simply
possess the power of giving these shocks,
and that's about all there is about it.. /
dom care about any senseless publicity
on the subject, though you can mention
it if you want to. / will tell you
how it works. There is good deal of
electricity in my system. and when l
catch person by each hand it seems to
pass from me to them. You've seen peo-
pie take hold of the handles of battery
well, my hands are just like those
handles. Give your hands and | will
show YOU"
Mr.. Bell took the hands of the reporter
in his and pressed them tightly. A
shock of electricity, in no way differing
from that given by a galvanic battery,
was received.
You see," said the. living battery,
"when l draw in my breath the cleo
trio current seems to acquire great
power" The reporter felt the truth of
the remark as the sharp. prickly sensa-
ton increased, as if hundred invisible
needles were being shot through the
arms.
"There, you have the whole thing,
description and experience, as much as |
can give" said he, as he dropped the
hands of the reporter.
Il understand you could pick up
needles, Mr.. Bell, with your fingers as
with magnet" said the searcher for
facts.
"Oh, no, never could do that. These
stories are always exaggerated, you
know" replied he, as he lit his cigarette
and blew the white smoke out through
the open window.

friends abundant amusement when you
desire it," suggested the reporter.
"Well, yes; I can have some fun now
and then. / give the shock, you know,
when no one expects it, and often ]

upon shoulder and grasp their hand
with the other. They take it in good
part nearly always, though now and
then get into little trouble with those
cross-grained specimens of humanity
who never can take joke"
How do the ladies treat your elec
trical powersP Are they more fright
eiled than the menP"
"Of course. Did you ever know
lady who wouldn't scream louder than
man could when she saw child fall
down stairsP Those who don't know
me at all sometimes get frightened; but
the ones who do usually say. Oh, how
you shock me, Mr.. Bell and laugh.
shock the ladies often, but can't help
it, you know"
At this point Mr.. Bell announced that
he had an engagement to fill, and the
reporter withdrew.-San Francisco

SmaIIness of the World.

DH% Motley, after three years and "A
haHspent in a voyage of scientific ex-
ploration around the world, says the
voyage left deep impression of the
smahness of the earth's surface. We
live in the depths of the atmosphere as
deep as the sea animals live in the depths
of the sea. Like these we can crawl up
into the shadows, or mount at peril in a
balloon; but the utmost extent of ur
vertical range is no greater than we can
in a couple of hours. If there were land
the entire length of the equator it might
be possible to run around the world in
three weeks. A walk of about four
miles a day would bring a man from
BelN|ng Strait to Cape Hope in about
seveh years. The earth as component
part of the universe may be compared to
a small isolated island on its surface.

Words OF wisdom.

AdVersity is the balance to weigh
friends.
Ignorance is a subject for pity; not
laughter.
A knowledge of mankind is necessary
TO acquire prudence.
Choose those companions who admin
lister to your improvement.
Truth is hid by great depths, and the
way to it does not appear to all the
world.
Conversational powers are susceptible
of great Improvement by assiduous cul-
tivation.
The frienships of youth are founded
on sentiment; the dissensions of age req
suit from opinion.
Flowers sweeten the mir, rejoice the
eye, link us with nature and innocence
and are something to love.
The business of life is to go forward;
he who sees evil in prospect meets it on
the way; but he who catches it by retro
spectiOn turns back to find it.
Affections, like spring flowers, break
through the frozen ground at last, and
the heart, which seeks but for another
heart to make il happy, will never seek
in vain.
1t is very pleasant to see some men
turn round, pleasant as a sudden rush of
warm air in winter, or the flash of fire
light in the chill dusk; they shed radi-
ance on all around them.
All useless misery is certainly folly,
and he that feels evils before they come
may be deservedly censured, yet surely
to dread the future is more reasonable
than TO lament the past.
Mountains never shake hands. Their
roots may touch, they may keep together
some way up, but at length they part
company, and rise into individual, iso-
lated peaks. So it is with great men.
The beginning of hardship is like the
first taste OF bitter food-it seems for a
moment unbearable; vet, if there is moth
ing else to satisfy our hunger, we take
another bite and find il possible to 60

And no p could call her wise;

She would draw no strangers eyes;
Even we who love her are puzzled
To say where her preciousncss lies.
She is sorry when others are sorry,
SO sweetly, one likes to be sad;
And Il people around her are merry,
She is almost gladder than glad.
Her sympathy is the swiitest,
The truest heart ever had; =.
She is just an everyday darling,
The dearest that hearts ever had.

And yet they are quick and strong.
Many a dear one needs helping
She win work the whole day long;
The precious everyday darling,
Every day and all day long.
She is loyal as knight were loyal,
In the days when no knight lied,
And for sake OF love or of honor,

But she dreams not she is braver
Than the women by her side
This precious everyday darling,
Who makes sunshine at our side.
